All right, Pastor Marcy's going 23 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,800 to kick it off. Hello. 24 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:34,240 I love you all very much. So good to see all your faces. 25 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,160 We've missed you so much and have determined 21 days will not 26 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:48,320 be in it for me any longer. So but we are just so thankful 27 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:54,880 to be back here and we're so thankful for the opportunity and 28 00:01:54,880 --> 00:02:01,000 the honor actually to go and do what God has LED us to do in all 29 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:07,000 of these different areas. And you know, I just believe 30 00:02:08,039 --> 00:02:13,040 that the seed that was planted is the seed of the Kingdom and 31 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:19,360 when it gets into the yeast, Amen, it will just continue to 32 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,720 expand and grow everywhere we planted those seeds. 33 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,960 It was very interesting because there were places that we 34 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:39,560 obviously went that were set up from Volley, who is from Greece 35 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,960 and Albania, and had connections with groups of people. 36 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:49,840 But you know, one of the things that I know that just, you know, 37 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:56,200 really stood out to me was that we here have it good. 38 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:04,680 We have it good. We have the rich word of God and 39 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,680 we have places like this, houses of worship like this one. 40 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:17,200 We're not the only one, but like this one that are just, you 41 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,000 know, all over the place, all over this nation. 42 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,520 And what we have is something amazing. 43 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,880 And when you go into these other countries like Italy, for 44 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:38,600 instance, in Austie and Italy, you see this, the need so much 45 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:44,240 of A church that's spirit filled and life giving and has the full 46 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,840 counsel of the word because it's still up underneath such a 47 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:53,760 religious stronghold. And they don't have churches 48 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,320 like these. They don't, you know. 49 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:04,960 And so just to still believe and see that this is still happening 50 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:10,640 around the world where you know our nation is so blessed with so 51 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:16,320 many good churches and and you go to these places and they're 52 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,320 not. They don't have them. 53 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,720 And if they do, they're, you know, 50 people in in the midst 54 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:30,280 of millions and they need solid, good word, spirit filled 55 00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:39,280 churches still, especially, you know, for this generation, for 56 00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:44,920 this generation and the foundation that we have as 57 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:50,320 believers, they don't have those foundations within their lives. 58 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,080 They don't. And it just, it overwhelms me 59 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,560 still to think that in the year that we're living, they don't 60 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:05,440 have what we have and it's So what was it, you know, the 61 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:12,400 Sally's when they came from France and shared the percentage 62 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,480 of. 2% In France it's only 3% that are Christians, in Italy, 63 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:22,680 3% of the whole population. So 97% or not? 64 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,800 And it was very real. Very real. 65 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:34,360 And so you sending us, I just know that the seed that was sown 66 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,800 for those that are hungry, that it can continue to grow within 67 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:43,600 them and God can use, we know that God can use that seed. 68 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,360 Amen. If people are hungry and will 69 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,800 cultivate the seed. And so that's what we're 70 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,120 believing, that they'll cultivate the seed that was sown 71 00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:00,400 so that God can do a work because it is so needed. 72 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,320 But God is faithful to perform His word. 73 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:10,840 You know, when we went to Italy and began to minister to the 74 00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:14,400 group of people there, the Lord had us lay hands. 75 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,080 And you could see in that video that guy, his knee, he had 76 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,400 broken his knee and he couldn't, he could walk on it, but he 77 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,960 couldn't, you know, extend it and open it. 78 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,760 And the minute I laid hands on his knee, I heard a pop. 79 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,160 And then you saw in that video we just said, now move your 80 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,760 knee, you know, he said the pain was gone. 81 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,560 And I said, well, then move your knee. 82 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,400 And so that's when you saw him kicking his knee. 83 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:47,680 So God did some amazing things with those types of things as we 84 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,200 began to minister to people. We had a young girl filled with 85 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,320 the Holy Ghost. But just, you know, I think what 86 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,040 was really important was the fact that when he went to teach 87 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,840 in the Bible schools and we got to miss visit with the pastors 88 00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:08,520 there, just strengthening the pastors is another major thing 89 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,040 that we were able to do while we were there. 90 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:17,240 And then, you know, them receiving just that fellowship 91 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,480 that we were able to have with them was so needed and they were 92 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,080 so thankful for it as well. But there's many other things 93 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,680 I'm going to let other people share. 94 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,440 OK. We're still, there's a little 95 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,520 flip. You know, we didn't get in till 96 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:39,600 what we had a 22 hour flight yesterday and so it's starting 97 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,160 to kick back in right now. We'll let you be seated then, 98 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,880 yeah. I mean, I want you to fall 99 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:52,480 asleep on the stage. So if my wife falls asleep 100 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,440 during my preaching tonight, you know it's not 'cause I'm boring. 101 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,240 Yeah, we were on. We started our day yesterday and 102 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,360 we were 22 hours in by the time we our head hit the pillow. 103 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,560 But our flight was only 11 hours. 104 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:06,800 And then we had another three one. 105 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,240 So the flights themselves weren't long. 106 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,520 It's just when you get up to get to the airport, all that stuff, 107 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,120 right? OK, Clyde, I'm going to let you 108 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,480 go next. That way Trevor can clean up 109 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:19,800 anything that we don't say. I don't know how Pastor gets up 110 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,560 here every week because it's so nerve wrecking standing in front 111 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,600 of everybody, but it truly was an honor to be there. 112 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,040 Like Pastor Marcy said, these people are people that have 113 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,520 never heard about Jesus and the Word and they have no guidance. 114 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,799 So for that reason for me it was overwhelming. 115 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,520 I I felt like we were going to one spot and you feel like you 116 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,720 overcome and then you go to another spot and the 117 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,160 overwhelming feeling comes back on again. 118 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:54,720 But it we really are impacting the world. 119 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,720 I mean influencing the world. If we count all the airports, 120 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,280 how many? How many countries did we go to? 121 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:08,680 Probably 5 countries. But but yeah, they they these 122 00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:10,920 people need us. They absolutely need us. 123 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,960 And I'm I'm so grateful that I got to be a part of it. 124 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,200 In Austi, I felt LED and I told Pastor Earl that felt led to 125 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,800 share my testimony. For some of you that don't know, 126 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,640 I'm from Albania and I grew up Muslim. 127 00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:32,600 So in a lot of these people don't have that relationship 128 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,200 with God. They have religion. 129 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:39,120 And so when I growing up in a Muslim home, that's all that it 130 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,120 was. It was just a tradition and not 131 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,880 really a relationship with God. And so I felt the need to kind 132 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,560 of give that testimony to them and I pray that it did impact 133 00:09:50,560 --> 00:09:53,880 them. And then again in Albania, 134 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,560 Pastor Marcy did a women's conference. 135 00:09:58,680 --> 00:10:03,160 And last minute, and my aunt, actually, I had coffee with her 136 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:04,680 and I said, hey, are you working tomorrow? 137 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,760 And she said, I'm not. And I said, well, we're going to 138 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,280 women's conference, do you want to come? 139 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,360 And she said yeah. And so she ended up coming with 140 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:19,200 us and got saved. I mean, and not not only did she 141 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,160 get saved, but God confirmed to her who he really was. 142 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,280 He had a she had a word from another person in the in the 143 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,840 service. And she had never been to this 144 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,720 church before, like didn't even know any of these people. 145 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,440 And this lady comes up to me and I think her name was Martha. 146 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,600 You said she come up to me and she said, hey, I don't know your 147 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,440 aunt, but I just feel like God really wants me to share this 148 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,920 with her and I'm like please do like, you know, go share with 149 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,160 her. And Long story short, my aunt or 150 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:56,280 as Brandon says, long story long or she. 151 00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:59,120 She said my aunt had gotten in the car accident. 152 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,560 A van literally ran over her and not one injury. 153 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,680 And the lady went up to her. Yeah, about four years ago. 154 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,720 And the lady went up to her and said, hey, I just wanted to tell 155 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,120 you that I had this vision of you getting ran over or having 156 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,680 this accident. And God wanted me to tell you 157 00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:21,320 that the same God that protected you is the same one you received 158 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:29,280 today. I mean, I told Trevor, if that 159 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,680 is all that we invested for that reason, if that is the only 160 00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:37,280 reason why we invested in this trip, to me that is 100% worth 161 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:41,920 it. So bring it on. 162 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:47,120 When is the next one? All right, Trevor, That's great. 163 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,240 Yes. As Clyde said, it's very 164 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:55,480 difficult to be up here. So I'll bring the mic closer. 165 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,480 So one of the things that I do want to brag on is our pastors. 166 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,680 I mean glory be to God right. However the amount of hours and 167 00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:07,360 time that that our pastors spoke. 168 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,320 Pastor Earl, I mean he he towed the the lion there but and he 169 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,120 taught the same subject many times. 170 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,560 But I I kept telling him, Pastor you I I'm trying to follow but 171 00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:19,040 you keep going to different directions. 172 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:25,360 He never spoke the same message about the same subject one time. 173 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,440 It's amazing and and one of the reasons it's so easy for him to 174 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,400 do it besides the anointing, is because the word is so sound. 175 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,160 He's speaking the word that's very sound. 176 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,400 And the the scripture that came up to me, it was in Matthew. 177 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,880 And correct me if I'm wrong, but it talks about taste and see, 178 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,720 the Lord is good. Pastor Mike, what's that? 179 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,360 OK, whatever. Anyway, yeah, I missed. 180 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,880 It we were in Matthew a lot though, well. 181 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:51,720 There's one. There's 1:00 somewhere in there 182 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,920 that that says taste and see. And so it it reminded me when I 183 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,600 was a kid of going up to into my grandmother's house and being 184 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,240 hungry and you smelt the goodness of the food that was on 185 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,880 the table and you got hungry. Even if you weren't hungry, you 186 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,360 would get hungry just from smelling it. 187 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,160 And we experienced that all through our travels this last 188 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:14,120 three weeks. But they got, yeah, we have to 189 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:23,600 suck in, but you know we were at Cypress and we and I don't want 190 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,240 to get into too much detail on what you want to. 191 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:30,040 Share on today, You can tell. But pastor started speaking. 192 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:35,480 We had 41 people on the first night and it was like you got a 193 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:36,920 taste of it. You started smelling the 194 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,720 goodness of the salt and and just a sound word that he was 195 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,480 preaching and the next night it jumped up to 66 people and then 196 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:49,360 the next night up to 78 people and you felt that revival wants 197 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,240 to get started in a place like this. 198 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,200 It it was pretty. It was, it was, it was a 199 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,040 tangible feeling of things that were taking place in that 200 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,720 region. How it just like God is really 201 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,200 wanting to to move in that place. 202 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,280 You know, that's been had so much oppression throughout the 203 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:09,120 years and so much, you know, demonic activity holding, you 204 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,960 know, bringing its own oppression over the people and 205 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,160 God just wants to set people free And and the word that we 206 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,280 hear every Sunday and Wednesday here is so free to us and so 207 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,920 common to some level, which you know is is great in one sense as 208 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,320 long as we don't count it as common. 209 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,280 But the people there were seeing and tasting something that that 210 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,200 got them so hungry and so stirred that they just wanted to 211 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,720 keep coming. And we we had you know, signs 212 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,800 and wonders, you know, miracles happening with the guy with the 213 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,760 knee. There was lots of people that 214 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,680 got their hand, that got hands laid on them. 215 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,560 They raised their hand, said they were healed. 216 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,960 But it was it was an amazing trip and you know, it was just 217 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,160 an honor that we could be there and participate and. 218 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,920 Share about Kaidah's uncle you went and prayed for. 219 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,160 Was it the uncle the Yeah, yeah, yeah, it. 220 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:03,280 Was so I get a phone call on the way to Albania and it was 221 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,560 actually my dad, he said. Hey, I'm, I'm giving you this. 222 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,000 I gave somebody your number and they're going to call you. 223 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,320 And so I was like, OK, so this Albanian guy that lives in 224 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,800 Jacksonville calls me and he said, hey, my, my dad is 225 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,200 neighbors with your aunt in Albania, where my dad lives. 226 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,760 Yes, everybody knows everybody. And if you don't know everybody, 227 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,200 somebody, somebody knows somebody. 228 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,000 So he said, you know, he has pancreatic cancer. 229 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,840 And because Trevor works in that field, they wanted us to 230 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:42,280 medically go look at his blood work and his records and just 231 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,920 kind of see what Trevor thought his outcome would be. 232 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:51,560 But we have a better doctor. So we didn't tell him what we 233 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,840 were doing. But we, you know, Trevor and I 234 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,920 agreed that when we were going to go over there, we were going 235 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,560 to, you know, pray for for him. And so anyway, we go, we go 236 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,760 there. And honestly, Albania, I feel 237 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,080 like it happened so quickly, so I don't even know that we were 238 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,600 going to have time to meet with him. 239 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,640 But praise God, it worked out perfectly. 240 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,640 So we did. We went to his house. 241 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:20,120 And I always get nervous when I talk to Albanians about Jesus 242 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,800 because it's such a foreign concept to them. 243 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,720 But I'm thankful I had Trevor there with me. 244 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:32,800 He helped a lot with that. But anyway, so he's like, all 245 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,960 right, I'm, you're going to translate, and I'm just going to 246 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,840 tell you what to say. And so we did. 247 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,000 We asked them if they wanted to be saved, and he did. 248 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,520 So we let him, you know? And then. 249 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,680 And then we oh, yeah. And then his wife was on the 250 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,960 other couch feeling very, very uncomfortable. 251 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,160 She's like, I don't know what's happening. 252 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,120 She's like, hey, you're supposed to come here to look at his 253 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,000 blood work. And you're here, like, talking 254 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:03,320 about Jesus, what is happening? So, so they both, we all four of 255 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:08,319 us, held hands and they both believed and got saved. 256 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,280 And then we prayed for him. And I, you know, I believe that 257 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,319 not only God saved him, but I told Trevor this. 258 00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:18,440 I want the whole neighbourhood to know that God was there. 259 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,359 So I'm like, Lord, give him a vision, show him that that was 260 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,760 you. And it's not just us going there 261 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,880 to pray for him. So that's what I'm believing and 262 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,080 I hope that you guys can get in faith. 263 00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:33,520 That's what's going to happen. So, Amen. 264 00:17:41,490 --> 00:17:43,970 Joe, hand me my phone right there, if you would. 265 00:17:48,370 --> 00:17:52,730 Yeah, if I wasn't going to Albania after Cyprus, I would 266 00:17:52,730 --> 00:17:58,250 have stayed. It's probably the only meeting, 267 00:17:58,730 --> 00:18:03,760 literally, and I preach here, it is the only meeting that I've 268 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:12,480 been to that I sensed A tangible revival, that instead of it 269 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,640 decreasing each night, it increased. 270 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:21,080 And the only negative of our timing to Cyprus was that 271 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,600 because we were doing the school on the weekend, I could not do a 272 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,160 weekend meeting. So in Austie we did a weekend 273 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,080 meeting. We did Friday night, Saturday 274 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,440 night and a Sunday morning and it was a challenge in and of 275 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,880 itself because not only was someone interpreting in Albania, 276 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,560 but then someone's also interpreting in Italian. 277 00:18:42,360 --> 00:18:47,160 So there's this double delay happening, English, Albania. 278 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,280 Then you have to wait for those that are here in the Albania to 279 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:55,400 translate the Italian. Long story short, we go back 280 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,400 there, we'll have to change that system. 281 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,880 But, you know, I mean, things happen, don't get me wrong, but 282 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,680 it was a little different environment. 283 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,640 And before we left, a guy said, I have one question. 284 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,000 He says, what are we going to, what are you going to do now? 285 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:19,120 Are you never going to come back now that we've heard this? 286 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,200 I said, well starts with the book. 287 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,040 I left him a whole bunch of the forests. 288 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,080 I said, y'all need to come together and meet and read this 289 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,240 book and study it. I said then, you know, we'll 290 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,080 talk about maybe I can come in, do some zoom meetings with you 291 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,840 guys initially, but I'm not called the pastor there, so 292 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,680 that's not going to happen, you know? 293 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,640 But there's some other things that Raima's doing in the region 294 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,400 that I can probably reach out and see if somebody's feeling 295 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,840 led to go there. I mean they could literally have 296 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,960 a church that would start with 40 or 50 people right now. 297 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,280 But in Cyprus, because of the Albania thing we did Tuesday, 298 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:09,400 Wednesday, Thursday and and so it was pretty amazing that it 299 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,840 could grow during the week. When I say grow, you got to 300 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,440 understand that people were coming as far as an hour and a 301 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:22,480 half away to come to these meetings and then they drove 302 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,240 home an hour and a half and I didn't go short. 303 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:32,320 At all that our interpreter was in a box and they had, you know, 304 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,360 little the ones that needed it, most of them understand English. 305 00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:37,680 So it made it really easy for us to just preach. 306 00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:41,440 But at the end of the day, it was growing. 307 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,720 And I knew, man, if we were here Friday, we'd get over 100. 308 00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:48,880 If we did Saturday, we'd be we'd pack this place out, you know, 309 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,160 and you're having to ask a question, you know, if God was 310 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,880 going to do a revival and use you, would you want to be a part 311 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:55,440 of that? Right. 312 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,880 But we had the other assignment and I felt led to continue to do 313 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:01,600 that. But I'm going to give you some 314 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,880 testimonies. Olga who helped organize that, 315 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,000 who's a friend of Bali. She sent me these this morning 316 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,800 that some of the things that were said concerning the 317 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:14,640 conference we did in Cyprus. 1 believer who came said the 318 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,960 presence of God was so powerful at this conference once that my 319 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,000 son who was 28 years old Christian but for years didn't 320 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,720 read his Bible. After the event he started 321 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,000 reading his Bible with such hunger and boosted spiritually 322 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,200 so much. One person said it was a 323 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,800 spiritual reset for them and many others. 324 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,320 A person who wasn't even a a believer said I was crying 325 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,160 during worship. I don't even know why I just 326 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,520 couldn't stop, another one said. The message was so amazing. 327 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,440 I've never heard something like this before in my life. 328 00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:00,000 Another believer was invited after being out of church for so 329 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,800 many years. I came on the second day, was so 330 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,400 touched by the presence of God. They need to come again, they 331 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,760 said. This is what I needed for a long 332 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,160 time. Another one, she said. 333 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,520 Sent came all three days. And when, when you have such a 334 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,560 powerful presence of God, you do whatever is possible to come no 335 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,120 matter what. And this person lived two hours 336 00:22:17,120 --> 00:22:22,240 away. Many called her personally and 337 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,240 told her they were healed. And they didn't have it on text 338 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,040 because I was going to say text me. 339 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,200 You know what? Their testimony. 340 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,240 And she said, well, they're calling me and just telling me 341 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,680 I'm healed. And we pray. 342 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,680 For probably 25 or more. You got some? 343 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:42,400 Come on, I remember. A couple of things that the one 344 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,040 of the things about in Cyprus where he's talking about is 345 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,760 there were several pastors. But what's so neat about being 346 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:58,720 in Cyprus was that there were so many other nationalities there. 347 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:04,760 That I mean, and especially with, you know, Clyda, 348 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:09,360 everywhere she went, she met Albanians everywhere and 349 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:15,040 country, every country we went. Are you an Albanian? 350 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,600 So we'd go. Into a coffee shop and she'd 351 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,760 say, I think they're Albanian, go up to them and start speaking 352 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,400 Albania. And then sure enough they were 353 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:29,080 Albania and so, but anyway in Cyprus, just so amazing that 354 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,640 there were so many different nations there. 355 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,760 And then during the time of ministry we got to minister to, 356 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:42,040 there was a couple pastors there, three of them. 357 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:46,880 And what was the one pastor from Nigeria him and his wife were? 358 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,720 Originally from Nigeria and had a church there in Cyprus. 359 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,360 So what I was going? To say about the nationalities, 360 00:23:52,360 --> 00:23:55,960 they literally have a church that's just all Nigerian they 361 00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:00,720 started two years ago from and most of the churches. 362 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,880 There are around their nationality, so if they're 363 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,760 Albanian, they have Albanians. If they are, you know, 364 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,560 Nigerians, they're typically from that area. 365 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,160 There was a Filipino lady who had a church next door to the 366 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,280 theater. She came over and brought and 367 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,920 then brought her congregation the third. 368 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,520 Night they. Were all Filipino. 369 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,960 So it's really interesting, so dynamic look. 370 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,240 For their nation. But the conference 'cause we 371 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,240 preached, the Kingdom brought all nationalities, 'cause that's 372 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,440 together. Yeah. 373 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,880 In three days. In three. 374 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:42,600 Days and the. Miracle that they we rented the 375 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:48,520 theater and somebody ended up paying for the whole, you know, 376 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,160 the whole conference was covered, yeah. 377 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,920 I mean. Bali was believing that people 378 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,760 would, you know, from the those avenues, you know, would take 379 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:02,120 care of it since you know, we we all participated in sending us. 380 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,800 And so they didn't want that, but we were willing to invest. 381 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,160 I mean, I would actually talk to Pastor Mike because some places 382 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:10,880 don't take American Express over there. 383 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,880 And so I'm like, man, I'm not going to be able to take care of 384 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,280 this theater with American Express. 385 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,040 We're going to put some money on a different card. 386 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,760 He's like, OK, how much? And so I told him and he said, 387 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,320 OK and move money and next thing you know I'm sitting already. 388 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,680 And then she didn't talk to me anymore. 389 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,720 And I'm like, I guess we got to settle up tonight. 390 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,440 And then they're like, Oh no, it's taken care of. 391 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,080 Somebody from? Greece because they were in the 392 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:44,160 ream of school and heard me minister on Kingdom Economics, 393 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,440 even though they technically weren't a student. 394 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,200 Their husband. Interpreted for me. 395 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,680 And next thing you know, they're paying for the theater. 396 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,400 So you know, it was showing God's provision. 397 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,760 Hallelujah. I said Hallelujah and that 398 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,360 amazing, she says Some of the here's some just some 399 00:26:04,360 --> 00:26:06,800 testimonies of people you know saying afterwards finally 400 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,680 something starting to move in our land. 401 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,760 One of the persons said thank you so much for doing this. 402 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,000 To her this was such a spiritual refresh in the desert. 403 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,960 Another person said the presence of God was more powerful than 404 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,000 ever. So the the one pastor from now 405 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,320 him and his wife was from Nigeria. 406 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:30,160 He came up to me and said, do you mentor pastors? 407 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,280 You know, so then you hear you feel that responsibility. 408 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,280 So you're asking a question. And so, you know, I'm like, 409 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:43,760 well, I can do these things. And but you're asking, you know, 410 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:45,640 what do you do? There's such a need out there. 411 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,760 Again, you know, we cannot understate or overstate really 412 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,800 the blessing that God has given us as a church, the move of the 413 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,000 Spirit, the revelation of the word. 414 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,440 So there's a responsibility we have with it. 415 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:09,960 And you know, when you go to other lands and you begin to 416 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,480 share things that they've never heard, I mean that pastor, 417 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,760 literally, he said. I've never heard it this way 418 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,640 ever. This is. 419 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,680 Powerful. In fact, he texts me because I 420 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,520 gave him a text, he said. Here's another mind blowing 421 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,480 message. And I'm like, which one are you 422 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:27,840 talking about? I thought he listened to it 423 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,400 already, but he hadn't, and he showed me from our YouTube the 424 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,040 wealth of a king, he said. I've got to listen to this one. 425 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,640 So you know the. Lord's moving. 426 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,280 He's doing things, and you're a part of that. 427 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,200 Because the reality is we are as strong as we are because of all 428 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,560 of us. Period. 429 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,080 If I wasn't called to do what I'm doing, then the gift that I 430 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,920 am would never come out. And if you weren't? 431 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,440 Here then, it wouldn't be pulled. 432 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,040 I mean, Trevor and I were just talking about other stuff that 433 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,720 he end up have making some statement that all of a sudden 434 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,720 had me, you know, by revelation dismantle a whole thought 435 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,480 process. And I'm like, man, I'm glad you 436 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,240 asked that question. But we've people been saying 437 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,880 this for years and you know, really when you think about it, 438 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,600 that's just technically not correct how they're saying that. 439 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,720 But it it pulls on the gift, it pulls things out, and you learn 440 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,040 and grow and then you know you're rightly divine, the word 441 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,960 of truth. So tonight I want to. 442 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,120 Minister to you, Can I do that for a few moments? 443 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,080 I probably won't go as long as I normally do because we've had 444 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,960 testimonies, but I do want to leave something in you. 445 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,680 Based upon what we've seen today and today, I would call my 446 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,920 message, go and do. Because we're. 447 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,840 All called to go. Now let's look at this in John 448 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,920 chapter 15, verse 16. Again, I want to thank all of 449 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:48,200 you. You know, I could go through, 450 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,280 you know, just very specific, my staff, the church, all that. 451 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,400 But the reality is, everybody thank you for parting. 452 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,000 With Anchorage Church. For seeing yourself in the 453 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,960 vision and being a part of it, it's really important that we 454 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:05,120 continue to do these things. And I want us to get in revival 455 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,960 ourselves. But an indicator of revival is 456 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,520 that more people show up, not that we drop off. 457 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,400 Revival. Is 'cause people get hungry and 458 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,360 again if people. Would travel for an hour and a 459 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,120 half one way and then they got to go back and do it again that 460 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,240 night. They're not going to get home 461 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,240 till 1:00 and they're going to turn around and go to work all 462 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,400 day and then show up and come to service during the week and. 463 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,640 Do it again three nights in a row and just and invite people. 464 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,520 And we have this. All the time, right? 465 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,040 So there shouldn't be a Sunday we take off, a Wednesday we take 466 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,720 off, and we should be like, wow, this is amazing. 467 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,000 But look what it says here. In John 1516 it says you did not 468 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,520 choose me. But I chose. 469 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:50,760 You and appointed you that you would go, say, go, and bear 470 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:55,720 fruit, and that your fruit would remain so that whatever you ask 471 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,840 of the Father in my name, he may give it to you. 472 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,200 So. All of us are called to go, but 473 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:07,680 when you go, you got to do. Going without doing doesn't 474 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,880 work. 'Cause going. 475 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:16,600 Without doing is called vacation and Jesus has not called us to 476 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,480 vacation. Jesus has called us to go do 477 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,360 Amen. So no matter where we're at, we 478 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,400 need to go and do. Because again, we didn't choose 479 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,920 Him, man. He chose us. 480 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,080 And then he. Appointed us that we would go 481 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:33,920 and walk bear fruit. The cool thing about bearing 482 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,720 fruit is you can bear fruit anywhere. 483 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,080 You don't just bear. Fruit in other nations you get 484 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:39,600 to bear. Fruit. 485 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,080 Everywhere. So you got to see yourself as a 486 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:46,200 person who goes and bears fruit everywhere, because again, we 487 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,040 know that God, and we're going to see here in a minute, he said 488 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,000 Go therefore in all the world. And we know the word world is 489 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,040 not planet Earth, it is the systems of the world. 490 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,160 And so you can do. That locally you can do it 491 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,120 nationally and you can do it internationally. 492 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,280 And so we have to do that. But when you go, you got to do 493 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,960 and you know what God has calls on people to go, which is all of 494 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,000 us. So I'm going to. 495 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,840 You know, pull up a couple people as examples so that we 496 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,880 can see that when God says go, he expects action. 497 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,560 So with. Abraham in Genesis chapter 12 498 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:18,800 verses one through three. It says this. 499 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,960 Now, the Lord said to Abram Go. Forth from. 500 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,800 Your own from your country and from your relatives, and from 501 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:27,680 your father's house to a land I will show you and. 502 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,120 Then he says, I'll make. You a great nation. 503 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,560 And I'll bless you, and I'll make your name great, and you 504 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,680 shall be a blessing. And I'll bless those who blessed 505 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,360 you. And I'll curse. 506 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,360 And the ones who curse you, I'll curse and in you. 507 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:42,720 All. The families of the earth is 508 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,400 blessed now again. It says go, but you understand 509 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,120 he didn't go and not do because he was the father of faith, the 510 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:52,400 father of us all. Abraham is the doer of the word. 511 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:57,840 He believed God at his word. So when it's going he was doing, 512 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,280 he was believing God at his word and doing whatever God told him 513 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,000 to do. So again, we all have these same 514 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:09,120 calls to go and bear fruit that we are all in a position. 515 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,880 That we have to. Recognize our movement has 516 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,000 significant consequence. Look what it says in. 517 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,760 Exodus chapter three. Another leader here. 518 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,720 Now Abraham's the type of God that you know, get up and go to 519 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,760 a place, I'll show you. And that's all he needs is 520 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,480 direction. In essence, he is this the lamp 521 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,480 unto his feet, right. And he don't even know where 522 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,400 he's going. He just knows he's taking him 523 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,600 somewhere and the word go, so he's gone. 524 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,000 So you understand when his wife said where we're going, he's 525 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,680 like, I have no idea, but God does. 526 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,200 That would have been his. Response. 527 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,400 Where are we? Going I don't know, but not 528 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,240 here. OK. 529 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,560 So the following follow to follow Abraham could have been 530 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:56,440 problematic if you need a plan. Because Abraham. 531 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,840 Doesn't have a plan except for the I'm acting on the word I've 532 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,720 heard and he don't need a whole lot. 533 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,240 Because he'll just. Move Moses, on the other hand, 534 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,160 he was a planned guy. He needs, he wants to hear the 535 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,800 plan. But look what the Lord says to 536 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,440 him in Exodus 3, starting in verse 7. 537 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,040 The Lord said I will surely. I've surely seen the affliction 538 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,440 of my people who are in Egypt and have given heed to their cry 539 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,120 because of their taskmaster, for I'm aware of their sufferings. 540 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,640 So I've come. Down to deliver them from the 541 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,720 power of the Egyptian, and bring them up from the land to a good 542 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,000 and spacious land, to a land flowing with milk and honey. 543 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,720 To the place of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the 544 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,920 Perizzites. The havites and the Jesu bites. 545 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,760 OK, so. He said. 546 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:42,160 Now behold, the Son, the cry of the sons of Israel has come to 547 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:43,960 me. Furthermore, I've seen the 548 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,360 oppression with which the Egyptians are oppressing them. 549 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,360 And here this is really like most believers today. 550 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:53,840 They believe God sees the world like God saw his own nation in 551 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,160 Egypt. They're oppressed. 552 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,840 They need to be delivered. You know well the world's lost. 553 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,520 They're under the oppression of the devil. 554 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,960 And God sees their cry. He wants to deliver them. 555 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,000 We say that, but you understand. God said all these things. 556 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,600 Then we get to the very next verse. 557 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,520 Therefore, come now, I will send you. 558 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,800 So just. Because God is concerned about 559 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:20,960 the lost doesn't mean he's gonna save them without you. 560 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,840 So we. Can't be praying the 1st 2 561 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:30,320 verses and and asking the Lord to do something without at least 562 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,800 hearing and saying. Here I am, Lord, send me because 563 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,480 again, you may not go to another country, but you're gonna go to 564 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,239 your workplace, you're gonna go shopping at some juncture, 565 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,800 you're gonna go out and about and get gas for your vehicle. 566 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,000 So you gotta recognize when you go, always be in a position to 567 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:57,320 do 'cause you never know one of these encounters. 568 00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,880 What could? Take place. 569 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:01,840 What could take? Place. 570 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,640 Obviously we're coming back and testifying of some things that 571 00:35:05,720 --> 00:35:09,040 have taken place because again, you sent us, we were all 572 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,560 partnered together in that and we went. 573 00:35:12,720 --> 00:35:16,360 Someone said would you come And we said we'll go and when we 574 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,120 went we did. All right. 575 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,360 He said, Therefore come now, I'll send you to Pharaoh, so 576 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,160 that you may bring my people, the sons of Israel, out of 577 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,880 Egypt. But Moses said to him, Who am I? 578 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:28,760 Right. That I should go to Pharaoh, 579 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,600 that I should bring the sons of Israel. 580 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,080 And he says, certainly I'll be with you and this. 581 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,080 Shall be. The sign to you that it is I who 582 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,040 have sent you when you have brought the people out of Egypt, 583 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,960 you shall worship God at this mountain. 584 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,960 So here's the thing, God, when he tells us to go, he expects us 585 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,760 to do. But you're going to have to go 586 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,160 and trust that he'll be there in the doing. 587 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,080 At the end of the. Day. 588 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,800 I don't know all that got to do. But if I. 589 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:05,320 Go with expectation, then he will do something, I said. 590 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,720 He will do something. And. 591 00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:12,600 We have to be in the expectation that we're when we're going, 592 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,560 there's something we're going to do that's going to give God the 593 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:22,200 ability to do what he does. But if we just. 594 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:27,960 Go and and spectate. Then we leave. 595 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:32,120 Nothing. And this is anywhere we go, I 596 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,240 said. Anywhere we go. 597 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:39,200 Because we have a mission to take the Kingdom everywhere, and 598 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:43,400 it starts right where we're at. I'm going to tell you personal 599 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,440 experience, it is not more exciting to be there. 600 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,040 Some. Food is more exciting. 601 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,080 That's true. But not. 602 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,400 It's not more exciting. Is it exciting to see places? 603 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,720 Yes. But it's not more exciting than 604 00:36:56,720 --> 00:36:59,120 where you're assigned where you're at. 605 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,560 Period the, the. Real excitement comes in. 606 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:12,800 What did I leave when I went? When did I leave? 607 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,120 What part of my mission? Did I leave? 608 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,560 Something that God could do something with because I went on 609 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,480 his behalf and. This. 610 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,000 Can be anywhere. Again, this can be a Publix 611 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:31,440 tomorrow, wherever you're at. This can be now. 612 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,880 We as a church are are great in our in the way we do outreaches. 613 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,680 We don't do them like other churches. 614 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,800 And honestly, I wish we were a little more evangelistic. 615 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,280 And we're just not. Super strong in that suit. 616 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,480 We do better on personal evangelism. 617 00:37:50,720 --> 00:37:53,520 I believe that and then just getting involved with people and 618 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,400 and you know, like we do in our sports and stuff like that. 619 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,480 But but we're not though like there's some churches that just 620 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,800 go out and start talking to people about Jesus. 621 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,440 We probably need to cultivate that better. 622 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,720 To where you're being. More intentional in your every 623 00:38:08,720 --> 00:38:12,040 day-to-day life to be able to say something. 624 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,040 Because there's. Power in doing when you go. 625 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,800 Not just. Go to the store, but go 626 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,280 intentional when you go 'cause you're having to go anyway. 627 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,080 So you might as well say, well, is there something that I could 628 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,880 have an encounter that would do something? 629 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,240 Now you may. Not. 630 00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:32,320 See the fruit of it. But you know you went with the 631 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:38,480 capacity to do not just go. You know what it says in Mark 632 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,840 chapter 16, starting in 15, he says then, then said to them, 633 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,160 this is Jesus. Then he said to them, go into 634 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,760 all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 635 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,040 Now we know what the gospel is. The gospel is the Kingdom, and 636 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:52,800 not everybody's hearing that gospel. 637 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:55,520 But we are to. Go. 638 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,480 And if you're going, then there's a doing. 639 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,520 Because when God says go, he expects doing. 640 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,640 We see here in verse 16 he who believes and has been baptized 641 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,240 shall be saved, but he who disbelieves shall be condemned. 642 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,120 Now you can't save them anyway. Your responsibility is to 643 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,160 communicate. And. 644 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,160 If you happen to communicate and somebody's like I want to like 645 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,400 when Trevor and Kleida went over to that couple's house that he 646 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,880 was dealing with pancreatic cancer and he's talking to him 647 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:28,840 about Jesus and basically saying that, listen, Jesus will heal 648 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:36,720 you, He will do that. But at the end of the day, you 649 00:39:36,720 --> 00:39:41,920 know if something doesn't change, you're in the grave and 650 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:45,480 and he's the only one who saves. He's the only one who. 651 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:49,280 Has life and shared enough that he says, do you want to make 652 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,960 Jesus your Lord? And then look to the wife and 653 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,480 says do you want to be saved as well? 654 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,520 And they both did. Now there was another lady in 655 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,360 the room. They were telling me that was, 656 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,440 you know? Muslim. 657 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,440 And they were struggling. Jeff was like, she was breathing 658 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,320 hard, like heavy, like real loud. 659 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,240 And he was, he said, are you OK? And she's like, I'm really 660 00:40:12,240 --> 00:40:15,160 uncomfortable. You know, I, I, I I think I'm 661 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,600 going to go to another room and he's like, good, go to another 662 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,920 room. Because again, if. 663 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:24,080 You're not going to jump in to the true Lord then go to the 664 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,520 other room because these here are coming into the Kingdom. 665 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,160 And. Again, I understand that the 666 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,440 whole grand scheme of things, it's better to be have eternal 667 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,280 life than nothing. But. 668 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,000 And we understand that God can heal even if you don't come into 669 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,240 the Kingdom. But how much more did they 670 00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:43,720 position themselves as the child of God and the the? 671 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:50,720 The bread is for God's children. Amen. 672 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,920 So. It's easy for us to expect. 673 00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:02,400 Now are you hearing me? Because it'd be very difficult 674 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:08,520 for this person not to testify that Jesus Christ Hillbill, when 675 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,000 they're technically on their deathbed. 676 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,680 I mean who they going to give credit to? 677 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,000 It's not going to be the Super. White guy that came from 678 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,840 America. Hallelujah. 679 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,520 Praise the Lord. Everybody knows. 680 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:33,320 Trevor's not from Albania. Everybody knows Hallelujah, but 681 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,120 what's to say in verse? 17 These signs will accompany 682 00:41:36,720 --> 00:41:39,000 those. Who have believed in my name? 683 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,320 They'll cast out demons, they'll speak with new tongues, they 684 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,520 will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it 685 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,840 will not harm harm them. They will lay hands on the sick 686 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,800 and they will recover. That's. 687 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,760 What happens when you go? Here's the thing. 688 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,240 A lot of times people are wanting God to do something but 689 00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:57,600 don't want to go nowhere. Power. 690 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,440 Follows the going. He said. 691 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,080 Go in all the world, then guess what to take place? 692 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,040 Power. Power can take place. 693 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,000 But now if you go and you spectate, then guess what? 694 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,880 Power's not there because you're hindering it. 695 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:13,680 Because you're really not expecting it. 696 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,640 But when you're being led by the spirit of God and you're going, 697 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,880 then you're doing exactly what God wants you to do. 698 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,680 And you know, in some cases you're planting some places, 699 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,880 you're watering some places because God calls the increase. 700 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,680 You get to see the harvest of things at the. 701 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:28,400 End of the. Day. 702 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:32,920 But in you're going, you're doing something with 703 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,120 expectation. Now the. 704 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,360 Thing is, we can't determine what we want to expect. 705 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,880 We just have to stay open to anything within the Bible. 706 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,000 And Pastor Marcy mentioned this to some pastors. 707 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,440 We were ministering to that. Pastor. 708 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:52,240 Lynette Hagan gave her some advice one time. 709 00:42:52,240 --> 00:42:55,440 That was phenomenal advice, and you need to take the advice, she 710 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,240 says. I never can't go to a service 711 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:05,320 expecting exactly how God's going to move, because the 712 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,440 minute you do that and it doesn't happen how you prely 713 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,360 conceived his move. Number one, you're. 714 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,440 Disappointed #2, You think he didn't. 715 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,920 And third, you miss how he wants to move because you're not tuned 716 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,720 in. And there's plenty of people 717 00:43:27,720 --> 00:43:31,400 that get into the realm of the Spirit because they've read and 718 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,440 they want spiritual things to happen. 719 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:37,200 Then all of a sudden they perceive that only God's moving 720 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,840 when certain things happen. Like. 721 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,680 You gotta run. You gotta. 722 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,840 Dance. You gotta shout. 723 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,880 We had a Holy Ghost service. That doesn't mean you had a Holy 724 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,760 Ghost service. It can mean you had a Holy Ghost 725 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,880 service, but it doesn't mean you had a Holy Ghost service. 726 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,200 So at the end of the day, you know, if you come in with 727 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:05,680 certain expectations. And then you won't. 728 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,920 Look at what other things are happening. 729 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:11,400 You'll be discouraged when God's like you're looking for 730 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,760 something I'm not doing. Now we are to earnestly desire 731 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,080 spiritual gifts, but that doesn't mean we only want the 732 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,720 power gifts. 'Cause there are. 733 00:44:20,720 --> 00:44:24,920 Six other gifts. Are you hearing me? 734 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,240 So we. Earnestly desire, but we don't 735 00:44:28,240 --> 00:44:31,040 know which one's going to happen when it happens. 736 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:35,720 But we also desire that the Holy Spirit do does what Jesus 737 00:44:35,720 --> 00:44:39,560 literally said he would do when he first announced him, And that 738 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:41,360 is he would cause things to come to your remembrance. 739 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,680 He would teach you all things, He would guide you into all 740 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,400 truth, and he would disclose things to come. 741 00:44:46,240 --> 00:44:50,800 And he's always wanting to work that praise God, because the 742 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:57,400 Word that you know right now. If I set. 743 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:01,560 You in oste Italy right now and let you just start talking about 744 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:11,440 what you know they. 'D be blown. 745 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:14,920 Away. This is why you. 746 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:20,080 Can't take it for granted, and I know you don't take it for 747 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:26,240 granted when you go and do with what you have, but if you sit on 748 00:45:26,240 --> 00:45:30,640 what you're hearing. Then the. 749 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,960 Then you start to decrease the value in your hearing 'cause 750 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,520 you're not experiencing what you're hearing. 751 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,600 Say Amen. Anyway, Matthew. 752 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:45,400 Chapter 10 verse seven and eight says this and as you go and as 753 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:46,840 you go. And as you. 754 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,960 Go. Preach. 755 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,840 Saying the Kingdom of heaven is at hand. 756 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,320 This is what Jesus said. So this is the gospel. 757 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,000 Then he goes verse 8, heal the sick. 758 00:45:58,240 --> 00:46:01,600 What? Else raise the dead. 759 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:08,440 A Dead. Person that you encounter is not 760 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:14,160 beyond your capacity to hear God and speak the name of Jesus over 761 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,640 him. You roll up on a scene of an 762 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:20,720 accident and someone could be laid out dead and God may sent 763 00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:25,160 you to go and raise them, but you got to be bold enough to 764 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,240 call it in the name of Jesus in the midst of everybody. 765 00:46:28,240 --> 00:46:33,840 Amen. Man, I saw an. 766 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,880 Accident today. I'm always. 767 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,320 Asking when I see one. What are we? 768 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:42,840 What's to do at this point? Now again. 769 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:46,000 It could be just pray and you don't stop, 'cause you can't 770 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,880 stop and God's not leading you to stop. 771 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,160 But your prayer may do something that you'll find out later, and 772 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:55,640 I'll get to that point here in a minute. 773 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,520 But notice. Heal the sick, raise the dead, 774 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,040 cleanse the lepers, cast out demons freely, you receive 775 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,480 freely. Why is it? 776 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:10,920 That we love to freely receive. That even comes with money. 777 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,920 Comes with. Revelation of the Word comes 778 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,800 with people laying hands on you and you falling out in the 779 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:24,840 Spirit comes with all kinds of stuff we want to freely receive 780 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,040 man, the presence of God. Today you've received that, but 781 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,600 then what are you giving? God's not. 782 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,440 Giving you something so that you get to sit on it. 783 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,720 And I'm gonna tell you, the more I I've traveled to other 784 00:47:39,720 --> 00:47:43,120 countries, the more I realize, man, American Christianity is 785 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:48,520 getting really sloppy, really commercialized, really self 786 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:52,000 seeking. I'm holding all these. 787 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,120 Conferences for each other. Now don't get me. 788 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:55,800 Wrong. I'm gonna. 789 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:59,880 I have conferences myself, but they're intentional for purpose. 790 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:04,440 But I begin to. You know, look at some of them, 791 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,760 like what countries are they going to? 792 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:09,600 Where are they getting? This out? 793 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,760 Are they just building here within our own nation now? 794 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:15,560 Don't think? Don't get me wrong, our nation 795 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,960 needs ministry and missions. I understand that. 796 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,520 But you also. Know that there's a lot of 797 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:27,560 freely receiving. Where? 798 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,040 Christians run from one conference to another conference 799 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,440 to another conference to another conference to another concert, 800 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:34,680 to another concert, to another concert, to another concert. 801 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:41,080 The worship experience. And what are they? 802 00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:42,960 Doing. They're freely. 803 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,960 Receiving, but not freely, not freely. 804 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:50,920 Giving, we need to give. Matthew 2819 says, go therefore 805 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,760 and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the 806 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:55,240 name of the Father, Son, the Holy Spirit. 807 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,240 Again, these words go always are followed up with a do. 808 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:04,960 All of them. All of them. 809 00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:11,000 So we were at a dinner in Albania and my wife asked Pastor 810 00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:15,080 Fatmir and his wife Silva to do their testimonies. 811 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:20,120 How they were born again. Because they. 812 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,960 Came out of a nation that was in communism. 813 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:27,400 And the. Communism that they were in was 814 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:32,400 their leader said that China was weak. 815 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,760 In Albania. Their leader at the time when 816 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:40,120 they were under communism said that that China's communism was 817 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:44,080 weak communism. Their whole. 818 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:48,480 Nation was shut off. They tell us that they saw they. 819 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,080 Their news told them that all Americans were starving to 820 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,960 death. That's what they. 821 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:59,360 Taught them that was their propaganda, that everything 822 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,800 going on when he took power in the 50s. 823 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,320 You know, and this. Is like some of the most 824 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,360 prosperous years of the United States. 825 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,760 But they're hearing that the United States, they're starving 826 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:13,840 to death. Their people are hurting. 827 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,680 Basically. You know, to have that kind of 828 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:21,200 government, it leaves you poor, broke and desperate and. 829 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,600 That's what they sold them. Very. 830 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,960 Locked down. No TV's. 831 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,800 The only TV was state TV. And if you had other channels 832 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:34,840 and they caught you because there was an Italian channel 833 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,200 coming in, that's why some of them learned Italian language. 834 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,160 But if they caught you, you'd go to jail. 835 00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:40,800 And if you go to. Jail. 836 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,080 Then your whole family goes to jail and your extended family 837 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:48,960 and they mark your whole family. If you go to Albania. 838 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,200 With us, we can take you into their underground. 839 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:53,640 Bunkers where they talk to you about. 840 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:59,240 All the torture they used to do, extremely rough, really 841 00:50:59,240 --> 00:51:01,560 oppressive. And then that leader. 842 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:02,800 Died. That's the only reason why 843 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,360 communism broke, because he died and then the next person who 844 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:11,160 came could not hold it together. And then I started. 845 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:14,000 Opening up a little bit and the reason why Kaleide can spot 846 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,760 Albanians in every place in Europe, because they opened the 847 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,520 embassies and the people ran to the embassies and meant they got 848 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:24,440 across the gate, They basically what is it called? 849 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:28,320 Asylum or something. They asked for that and they 850 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,360 were able to receive those people and start distributing 851 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,720 them all through Europe and even into the United States. 852 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,440 Then they closed them. Down again and the next thing 853 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:38,160 you know, you know, eventually, you know the nation opened up, 854 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:40,160 but then people. Started going over. 855 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,200 And again, much to my surprise, the first time I went over to 856 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:46,320 Albania is that, you know, I went over to Pastor Fotmire's 857 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,120 church and my wife was actually asked to do a women's thing. 858 00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:51,640 And we walked into the church. And I'm looking in the one 859 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,840 that's basically torn down now because of the earthquake. 860 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:59,200 But I walked into their little foyer that's, you know, about 861 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,280 the size of from this pole to here, This was it. 862 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:06,840 This is the foyer walked into it and it had on the table books 863 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,960 from the pastor that I used to be hired with, David Emai. 864 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,240 And I'm like. Where'd you get these from? 865 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:15,560 They come to find. Out. 866 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,320 This is the church he was going to. 867 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:19,920 I'm like. What a small. 868 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:21,360 World. But he's now gone on to be with 869 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,720 the Lord, so I. Realize I'm taking his talent. 870 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:27,080 Because he can't. Finish it. 871 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,120 So I'm going to. Support that, which is why we 872 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:33,280 do. But talking about a. 873 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:37,920 Small world getting smaller when Silva's given her testimony. 874 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,080 At one year. Old She was diagnosed with an 875 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,960 incurable disease. They said she would die by the 876 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,840 time she was 20. Wouldn't lift beyond. 877 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:51,400 That she was in excruciating pain because of what that 878 00:52:51,720 --> 00:52:55,000 disease did to her joints. Sickle. 879 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:56,760 Cell. Anemia, I think, is what it was, 880 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,840 because major. Pain in her joints, she would. 881 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,840 Cry. As a child, her parents would 882 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:04,760 cry because there's nothing they could do, she said. 883 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,040 She cried all the time. She was in constant, 884 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:09,400 excruciating pain. She has a high pain tolerance 885 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,000 in. Fact when she gave birth to her 886 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:13,400 first child that she never should have given birth to ever. 887 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,560 When she gave birth to her child, you know they were 888 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:20,080 wanting to know why wasn't she screaming when they said push 889 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:25,480 and she was like I, you know, it doesn't hurt that bad because 890 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,600 apparently. The disease and the way the pain 891 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:30,800 is in the joints is worse than giving birth, and it proved out 892 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:32,880 to her because it really wasn't that bad. 893 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,480 Now all the moms are like, wow, that's some serious pain. 894 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,320 And you're saying that after an epidural. 895 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,320 I get it. But. 896 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,240 Anyway, because again, they didn't have that kind of stuff 897 00:53:44,240 --> 00:53:46,480 over there in Albania, but she was 8 years old. 898 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:52,040 Because the. Communism had broken. 899 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:58,280 She got a backpack, and then that backpack was a track. 900 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:01,920 Because a man by the. Name of Terry Law, who used to 901 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:05,160 go to Pastor David E Mai's church every year. 902 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:11,640 Sent. Backpacks to the school because 903 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,640 the Lord told him to go to that country. 904 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:18,880 And he took a. Backpack with school supplies, 905 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,720 but in it was a track about Jesus. 906 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:24,640 The. Story of Jesus. 907 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:29,480 And that story of Jesus. She was born again. 908 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,240 I'm like listening to this and I'm thinking. 909 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,880 What we. Would sometimes consider 910 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:44,040 insignificant moment. I'm talking. 911 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:46,760 To a lady who her and her husband. 912 00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:50,440 Are. Currently and will be more 913 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:55,600 influential in the nation of Albania for the sake of the 914 00:54:55,600 --> 00:55:00,680 King. And it came because somebody 915 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:06,120 went to do. And they're doing. 916 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:11,480 Was a track. 'Cause where? 917 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:14,600 Places are oppressed. It's amazing what God will do, 918 00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:20,680 'cause I'm telling you when the scripture says we are without 919 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:23,360 excuse. We are without. 920 00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:25,440 Excuse. Even in. 921 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,320 Countries where it's difficult to preach. 922 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:33,480 Because of the. Testimonies that people say of 923 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:39,160 the links that God is doing in these oppressive nations to 924 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,520 identify himself. And his. 925 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,600 Message. That when? 926 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:47,760 There's not a flood of churches on every corner like in the 927 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,320 United States. And the. 928 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:54,240 Accessibility to teaching. That God. 929 00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:58,080 Is still navigating through very. 930 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:03,280 What would seem insignificant things are major moments. 931 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:07,000 Major. Moments. 932 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:10,320 And she got born. Again at 8. 933 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:13,840 By the time she's 16, she gets complete well. 934 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,920 She was 20, supposed to die. And then she heard about the 935 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:24,880 authority of the believer and her and her husband, 'cause I 936 00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,160 think they were married at the time they came together and was 937 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:30,560 completely healed. Completely. 938 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:34,600 Healed Hallelujah. But it started because somebody 939 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:37,280 went to a nation that just opened. 940 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,480 To drop off. Backpacks to kids. 941 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:52,420 With a message you know a lot of times. 942 00:56:52,420 --> 00:56:55,820 When we do missions we want. Just the. 943 00:56:55,820 --> 00:57:00,940 Supernatural. I mean, we had a girl come up to 944 00:57:00,940 --> 00:57:06,600 my wife and in Cyprus and and said I want to be filled with 945 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:13,400 the Holy Ghost came to her again, this guy healing. 946 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:16,840 Then there's just a. Spiritual awakening happening in 947 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:18,440 others. And then there's healings that 948 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,040 are taking place and we're not knowing exactly what they all 949 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:22,920 are. But they're. 950 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:29,240 Happening. Hallelujah, 'cause you expect 951 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,760 things through your doing, but there's other stuff you're 952 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:37,560 doing, like leaving books. There's no telling where, the 953 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:47,720 books you help us print, where they'll go, who'll grab a cop. 954 00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:50,920 We actually were in France, 'cause we didn't minister in 955 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:52,240 France. We were close enough. 956 00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:56,400 We just took a day because you know when our schedule we by the 957 00:57:56,400 --> 00:58:00,720 time I finished the weekend, I was there Friday from a Friday 958 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:04,320 night to a Tuesday when we got on a plane. 959 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,200 I had already done 22 hours of ministry and. 960 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:11,680 Then we had three days before the next one hit, and so we're 961 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:12,640 close. Enough to France. 962 00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:15,600 We popped down there and so we were what? 963 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:17,680 No, it wasn't. It was actually in Milan. 964 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,920 We flew into Milan and then we had to. 965 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:21,920 Drive over, but we were in Milan. 966 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:25,800 We grabbed something to eat and it was a cafe but it had books 967 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:30,480 and I told Josh I'm like, we should leave the forest here. 968 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:34,000 Just put it on. A shelf I. 969 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:36,800 Mean. There's so many. 970 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,480 Books. I doubt they go through and say 971 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:43,720 where did this come from, but even if they did, so he ran 972 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:45,360 back. To the hotel, grabbed it and. 973 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:50,640 Put it on a shelf. Hallelujah. 974 00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:54,040 Because. Now I'm like, thank God I left 975 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:57,280 it on the shelf. Because if a backpack with a 976 00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:01,320 track can save one of the most influential women in Albania 977 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:03,960 today for the gospel of the Kingdom. 978 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,360 We. Just didn't go to the coffee 979 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,400 shop to have another cup of coffee. 980 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,400 Oh, the coffee I drank. It was amazing. 981 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:21,160 The gallons Coffee. In search of the. 982 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:28,800 Greatest Americano? It's here in America anyway. 983 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:33,040 But who knows, 'cause you're like. 984 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:35,600 Let's do this. Let's leave. 985 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,320 This resource. Because in every. 986 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:43,000 Book that we write in the very back a person can read and be 987 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:43,840 born. Again. 988 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:45,880 And then we let them know. If you contact us, we'll help 989 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,080 you find a church. Wow. 990 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:51,720 It's amazing. So we left. 991 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,960 Fifty books there. In Italy, we left. 992 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:59,400 I gave the books away, the English books In Cyprus, not one 993 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:01,560 book left. Completely gone. 994 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:03,880 Could have gave more, so they're. 995 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:07,360 Circulating. We got to pray over these 'cause 996 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,760 it's the word of God, 'cause, you know, if you read any of our 997 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,480 books, we put the Scripture in there, we don't reference it. 998 01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:16,400 We type it out, 'cause we think people are lazy and they won't 999 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:18,360 actually open their Bible and see where that's at. 1000 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:21,840 Hallelujah. Look what it says in. 1001 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:26,720 John, 1315 to 17 for I have given you this. 1002 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:28,680 As an. Example. 1003 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,040 That you? Should do in your. 1004 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:37,720 Turn what I have done to you. It's Jesus talking, I assure you 1005 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:39,920 most solemnly. I'm reading out the amplified 1006 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:42,560 classic. I tell you, a servant is not 1007 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:48,200 greater than his master, and no one who is sent is superior to 1008 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,120 the one who is sent. Did you just hear what I. 1009 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,520 Said no one. Who is sent is superior to the 1010 01:00:54,520 --> 01:01:01,400 one who sent. Him We equally shared in this 1011 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:06,920 trip, even though you didn't go and everything that becomes 1012 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:09,280 fruitful. That we may not. 1013 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:13,480 Know this side of the Kingdom of the manifestation of Jesus in 1014 01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:16,840 the air. And us going towards the great 1015 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:20,880 reward of all that took. Place but you went. 1016 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:26,720 You were a part in your prayers, in your giving, and you're 1017 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:32,360 connecting. You were there, but there's an 1018 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:36,000 expectation. We're not greater than our 1019 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:40,080 master, but we can function like our Master, Jesus Christ. 1020 01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:46,200 As he went, we can do because Jesus was sent by His Father to 1021 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:49,720 do something we've been sent by our Father to do. 1022 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:53,240 Something And whether we're. Doing it here locally, whether 1023 01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,240 we're doing it nationally or whether we're doing it 1024 01:01:55,240 --> 01:02:01,520 internationally, we're doing, we have no idea. 1025 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,120 The impact is gonna be on all the orphans. 1026 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:07,320 The ones we are. Financially supporting in India 1027 01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:12,960 and in the Moldovia and Ukraine. We have no. 1028 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:17,680 IDEA All that will take place because we are financially 1029 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:22,840 supporting those locations. It's because. 1030 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:27,840 We are are set to go and do and we're financially doing things 1031 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,880 with missionaries. But then we get to participate 1032 01:02:31,360 --> 01:02:42,840 in our going and there's an expectation of harvest, an 1033 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:46,000 expectation of harvest. I'm telling you, you should have 1034 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:49,360 a passport. If you don't, you need to get 1035 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,320 one. Because. 1036 01:02:52,800 --> 01:03:01,680 God wants every one of us to go. Now, if you've already been and 1037 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:03,560 you believe that, you know you're just going to be sending 1038 01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:04,520 people. I understand that. 1039 01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:05,720 No problem. Whatever. 1040 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,320 But everybody. Should have an expectation to 1041 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,520 go. Our youth. 1042 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:13,920 Went great testimonies on Sunday, right? 1043 01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:17,520 I mean, I talked to one out in the mall today and they were 1044 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,440 talking about, you know, the things they were doing and how 1045 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:21,640 much they enjoyed it. They These are life changing 1046 01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:24,000 moments. These. 1047 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:27,080 Are memorials and markers in their lives. 1048 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:31,280 Cause again, when we sent them, we didn't send them to go 1049 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:36,000 experience and watch Nicaragua. We sent them to do something and 1050 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:43,760 one of the doing was painting. In fact, it was. 1051 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:46,120 Testified of somebody that attends our church. 1052 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,240 That used to come. All the time because they had 1053 01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:52,200 children in the preschool. But one. 1054 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:54,600 Reason why they joined the church. 1055 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:59,480 Was not because. I prophesied was not because you 1056 01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:03,040 know the the big presence of God. 1057 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:07,760 It's because they saw me and my wife painting the church. 1058 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:16,480 That was the. Supernatural doing because they 1059 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,360 related. I've been to churches and I've 1060 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:28,480 never seen the pastor do. That, but there's nothing we. 1061 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:37,080 Won't. Do 'cause you have no. 1062 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,400 Idea. The impact. 1063 01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:43,520 Of what you? Do when you. 1064 01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:50,280 Go, no matter what it is. For somebody in Nicaragua 1065 01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:53,760 saying, wow, look at all these teenagers from America. 1066 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:55,600 They're They're painting our church. 1067 01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:03,840 Wow, they would come over. Here and take their spring break 1068 01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:07,360 to serve us. That could be one of the. 1069 01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:13,440 Most supernatural, impactful moves of God for someone in 1070 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:16,280 Nicaragua. You just don't know. 1071 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:20,480 Because here's the thing. No matter what you do for the 1072 01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:25,000 Lord, it's not. In vain It's not in vain. 1073 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:26,840 Come on, it's not in. Vain. 1074 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:30,000 It's not in vain. It's not in vain. 1075 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,480 It's not in vain. And here's the thing. 1076 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:36,560 There's a lot to do, Jesus said himself. 1077 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:39,640 Look up for the fields are white with harvest. 1078 01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:42,680 They're ripe for harvest. Right. 1079 01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:45,800 He said but pray to the Lord of harvest that he send forth 1080 01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:48,320 laborers. Cause the laborers are. 1081 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:52,800 That means there's few people that are working or doing. 1082 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:57,120 Lot of people are spectating. But God didn't tell us to go and 1083 01:05:57,120 --> 01:06:00,920 spectate. Go and vacation, go and enjoy 1084 01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:03,280 yourself, he said. Go and do. 1085 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:11,680 Go. And do 37 hours of teaching 1086 01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:14,720 myself personally. It's fine, no. 1087 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,640 Problem. Because when you go and do, then 1088 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,000 you get up under the anointing. You get on the power of God. 1089 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:21,400 And here we are. It's Wednesday night. 1090 01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:25,480 We're preaching. Right. 1091 01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:28,680 We're preaching. What are you saying? 1092 01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:32,720 Joshua. Clay, yes. 1093 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:34,600 OK. Pastor Marsh is. 1094 01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:38,960 Calling on you, Joshua. Now listen, I had a auction. 1095 01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,520 That on. Sunday morning, when I was going 1096 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:46,560 to be preaching at Pastor fought Meer's other church, I'm like, I 1097 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:48,320 really believe Chase should be preaching. 1098 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:52,360 So I asked. Pastor fought Meer, I said. 1099 01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:57,760 Would you mind if Chase ministered at your other campus? 1100 01:06:58,720 --> 01:06:59,760 He said. No, not at all. 1101 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:05,520 Not at all. So chase ministers on the 1102 01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:12,200 Kingdom about reigning. But he ministered it from a 1103 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:14,920 perspective. That. 1104 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:19,040 He grew up in church and that he had to find his own faith. 1105 01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:27,320 Ultimately later. That afternoon the next day, No. 1106 01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,400 Was that afternoon, 'cause you had the women's thing that 1107 01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:32,680 afternoon when they came to pick us back up. 1108 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:34,840 So you go do the women's thing, they. 1109 01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:37,280 Didn't get. To rest cause one of their boys, 1110 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:40,400 they have twin boys. One of them was like talking 1111 01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:44,680 about what he wanted to do with his life and it was really not 1112 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:48,360 technically following God. Some. 1113 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:52,840 Talents and he was able to. Say you know what? 1114 01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,120 I want you to. Listen to this message that was 1115 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:59,880 in our church this morning, 'cause they didn't attend with 1116 01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:03,040 us that morning. This will answer all your 1117 01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:08,000 questions 'cause he's like what your son did this morning was 1118 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:09,520 directly. For my children. 1119 01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:18,640 Amen. Hallelujah, Joshua Well. 1120 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,200 A couple of things that stood out to me specifically from this 1121 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:25,560 trip. Obviously I've travelled with 1122 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:29,120 Pastor old many times, but the thankfulness I have to be part 1123 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:32,479 of Anchor Faith Church. I I know that we sit here in St. 1124 01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:34,800 Augustine, FL and sometimes we see that, you know, we ignite 1125 01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:36,399 the city, impact the nation, influence the world. 1126 01:08:36,399 --> 01:08:39,880 But when you get to actually go and see the effect, we're 1127 01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:42,680 spoiled here. We've got such great teaching, 1128 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,200 we've got such great leadership. We've got such a such a great 1129 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:48,240 message that comes out that when we go into a place like Osti you 1130 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:51,840 realize these people are starving for the word, not for 1131 01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:53,399 pasta. They have plenty of that, trust 1132 01:08:53,399 --> 01:08:56,680 me. We we partook of it but for the 1133 01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:58,920 word. Whenever pastor began to open up 1134 01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:00,359 the Kingdom, it just put me back. 1135 01:09:00,359 --> 01:09:02,720 When I remember hearing it for the first time myself. 1136 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,880 And you can't help but just be stirred on the inside and think, 1137 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:09,800 gosh, these people's lives can't ever be the same from this 1138 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,399 moment. They'll leave tonight and they 1139 01:09:12,399 --> 01:09:16,680 can never go back. They can never go back without 1140 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:20,560 really pushing past, go into some old tradition that they 1141 01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:27,120 would, I mean, you know, from going from Osti, then going into 1142 01:09:27,120 --> 01:09:29,080 Cyprus and just seeing the hunger there as well, that 1143 01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:31,880 they're just craving, not just religion. 1144 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:34,319 All these places have religion. They all know about Jesus. 1145 01:09:34,319 --> 01:09:37,200 They've heard about Jesus. There's crucifix, you know, 1146 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:39,359 things everywhere from the Catholic Church, from the Greek 1147 01:09:39,359 --> 01:09:41,439 Orthodox Church. Chase and I have the opportunity 1148 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:42,640 to go up. We wanted to get some cool 1149 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:46,160 photos of this monastery and we get up there only to see these 1150 01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:49,640 signs after we drove for an hour that say no cameras, no drones, 1151 01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:54,880 no cell phones, no women. Well, we're OK on that. 1152 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:57,760 But when we went inside, we realized it's still a 1153 01:09:57,760 --> 01:10:00,680 functioning religious monastery in Cyprus. 1154 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:04,480 So we're watching these full grown men come in weeping, going 1155 01:10:04,480 --> 01:10:08,360 up to these paintings of Mary and Jesus and five other Saints 1156 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,560 kissing the pictures. And then walking back. 1157 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,680 And doing their little, you know, ceremony and leaving that 1158 01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:17,160 place thinking they've touched God somehow. 1159 01:10:18,200 --> 01:10:19,120 And and it was. Really. 1160 01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:21,240 It kind of turned our stomachs. We're thinking this is idol 1161 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,360 worship. You know, this is but the whole 1162 01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:25,920 Nate, these nations that we're visiting, it's not like they're 1163 01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:27,960 majority Christians and that, you know, like St. 1164 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:29,720 Augustine, FL, there's a church on every corner. 1165 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,760 Well, in their cities there's religion on every corner and 1166 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:36,720 religions choking them to death. Yet we were able to come in as 1167 01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,400 anchor faith church with your help with you financially sowing 1168 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:41,120 to what we were doing. It was more than us just going 1169 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:43,600 and eating pasta. It's just going in and being 1170 01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:46,040 able to actually bring this revelation of the Kingdom that 1171 01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:49,000 we all have every week that they've never heard before. 1172 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:53,120 So going going. From there to obviously whenever 1173 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:55,880 we got into another major bullet point for me, I guess on the 1174 01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,040 trip is, is the lunch he was talking about that we had with 1175 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:00,200 Pastor Fotmere and and Pastor Silva. 1176 01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:02,240 Phenomenal. I mean, what what we're not 1177 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,520 saying is that you know me, Pastor Earl, Pastor Marci Clyde, 1178 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,880 we're all like sobbing through the whole lunch. 1179 01:11:07,440 --> 01:11:09,000 You know, Chase is just shaking his head at me. 1180 01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:12,880 But I'm sitting there, you know, trying to eat my food because 1181 01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:16,320 you're just realizing that. I mean, it's what it did in my 1182 01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:20,240 heart and showing me my Jesus and who he is in other places. 1183 01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:21,640 I can't. It's going to be really 1184 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:23,600 difficult for me to articulate and I'll try here in the next 1185 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:24,840 few minutes because you know, I know how to talk. 1186 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:29,920 But what it did in my heart and showing he's not just the king 1187 01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:33,160 and he's not just savior. He's the hero king. 1188 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:36,560 The. Way that he presented himself to 1189 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:38,560 me, but then the way that he presented himself to Pastor 1190 01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:41,880 fought me when he was 16. Because I remember when I made 1191 01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:44,120 Jesus Lord of my life at 18. Now I remember what was going on 1192 01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:46,600 in my life and the decisions I was making to just inner turmoil 1193 01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,200 happening. But then I'm seeing that this 1194 01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:52,480 same Jesus that I encountered is meeting with this other person 1195 01:11:52,480 --> 01:11:56,000 in a nation that just got broke free of their governmental 1196 01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,360 oversight. And this guy's happened to make 1197 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:00,320 a decision because, you know, you briefly hit on it. 1198 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:03,520 But I'm going to say pastor Fotmire as he was telling his 1199 01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:06,320 story said I had a friend. We were all Muslim. 1200 01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:08,800 He's like, I wasn't a good Muslim, but we were all Muslim 1201 01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:11,360 and that's who we were. Then my friend goes out and 1202 01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:14,240 comes back to school the next day and says I went to a church 1203 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:16,720 service, I've heard about Jesus and starts telling all of his 1204 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:18,520 friends about Jesus and he's like, what's wrong with you? 1205 01:12:19,440 --> 01:12:21,360 That's not what we do. Like what it what is this? 1206 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:25,480 So he said he ended up going with his friend to a a a service 1207 01:12:25,480 --> 01:12:28,560 and they had a lot of revivals in that time because people went 1208 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:30,760 and did. People heard this place has 1209 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:34,320 opened up for the gospel and just went a lot of people from 1210 01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,400 specifically Oklahoma apparently because there was a lot of 1211 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,600 ministries coming out of Tulsa and and Broken Arrow areas that 1212 01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:41,360 were showing up that I grew up knowing. 1213 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:44,000 So there was one from Victory Bible. 1214 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:46,240 You know school. Billy Joe Dougherty's church 1215 01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:49,560 went in there and started a small Bible school at the time. 1216 01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:52,480 So his friends were hearing this, but he said he went home 1217 01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:56,160 and and had this encounter with God where God spoke to him on 1218 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,600 the inside and he said he knew it. 1219 01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:00,720 He didn't know about being led by the Spirit like we do, but 1220 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,400 something touched him and he knew he heard the voice of God. 1221 01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:06,400 So then he went. Out and battled. 1222 01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:08,600 And he said it took him several days because he had to count the 1223 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:11,600 cost. And I found, you know, not to 1224 01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:15,640 bag on Americans, you know, but do do we really understand what 1225 01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:19,440 it is to be devoted or to really make a commitment and give our 1226 01:13:19,440 --> 01:13:22,440 allegiance to the Kingdom? Not just say I'm with Kingdom 1227 01:13:22,440 --> 01:13:25,520 people, but to say in my heart my allegiance is only to the 1228 01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,040 king. Yeah. 1229 01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:29,880 Because his family obviously was Muslim. 1230 01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:32,000 And he said as he counted the cost, he realized what it would 1231 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,640 cost him with his parents, what it would cost him with his 1232 01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:37,480 extended family, his relatives. And they he said whenever he 1233 01:13:37,480 --> 01:13:40,400 announced to his family, I have believed in Jesus and I will 1234 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:43,200 follow Jesus. He said he was not only verbally 1235 01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:46,520 abused but physically abused by his family that daily they came 1236 01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:48,920 in and they would either beat him or lock him in his room or 1237 01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:51,960 deprive him of food and say renounce Christ or you won't, 1238 01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,080 you know we won't feed you. Renounce Christ or you'll be 1239 01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:55,480 beaten. Renounce Christ, or you'll have 1240 01:13:55,480 --> 01:13:58,320 to leave our house till it came to a point where his father 1241 01:13:58,480 --> 01:14:02,560 kicked him out of his home. That's was it. 16 years old? 1242 01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:04,560 Yep. And said. 1243 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:06,520 You'll have nothing to do with our family. 1244 01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:08,680 You leave. And he said he had the most 1245 01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:12,520 peace, 'cause he said. He said Jesus is alive and real 1246 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:14,720 and he'll take care of me since I've chosen him. 1247 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,920 So he left his home and didn't really know. 1248 01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:22,200 He said he just had this leading inside that just prompted him to 1249 01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,400 go to this place that ended up having Christian people his age 1250 01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:27,480 that were from Victory Bible Institute. 1251 01:14:28,200 --> 01:14:30,240 They brought him in, they let him stay in the dorms, they gave 1252 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:31,800 him food. And then his father came back 1253 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:33,800 and was looking for him. After a few days thinking, did 1254 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:35,240 he die? Where did he go, 'cause in that 1255 01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:38,320 time it's not like there was you could make it on your own. 1256 01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:41,680 He saw the change that had happened in him and saw that he 1257 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:43,280 was taken care of and said what happened. 1258 01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:46,040 So he was able to speak out his calling for the first time as a 1259 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:49,320 teenager and said these people have brought me in. 1260 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:52,240 I've believed in Jesus and I'm there's people dying and going 1261 01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:54,680 to hell and I will preach the gospel and I'll tell them about 1262 01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:56,280 Jesus. That's what I'll do with my 1263 01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:57,760 life. And how old is he now? 1264 01:14:58,120 --> 01:15:01,600 404142 years old and he's been doing it since that day. 1265 01:15:02,440 --> 01:15:04,600 But that's how real the call was to them. 1266 01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:07,680 That's how real Jesus was a lot of times as teenagers in youth 1267 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,800 groups here it it's not that hard for us to say, oh, I choose 1268 01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:12,760 whatever I choose, but in there that he come on. 1269 01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:17,240 It's all going to come. Down to a question of our 1270 01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:20,440 allegiance. Have you chosen? 1271 01:15:20,440 --> 01:15:23,160 Christ to the point, Have you chosen the Kingdom of God and 1272 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:26,120 and sided with the King to the point you say I don't care what 1273 01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:28,280 comes against me. I don't care what it cost me 1274 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:30,520 financially. I don't care what it cost me in 1275 01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:33,760 my relationships. I choose this and it was just a 1276 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:35,520 big that was a big take away from me. 1277 01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:38,240 I mean, you can't help but just be moved, thinking how could I 1278 01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:41,360 go back and not me just as much, if not even more devoted than I 1279 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:45,640 have been. You know you count the. 1280 01:15:45,640 --> 01:15:47,880 Cost just to follow Christ, but we got people sometimes that 1281 01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:49,880 count the cost to just click yes on Planning Center. 1282 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:57,240 Yeah, and. We're saving that for. 1283 01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:00,320 Sunday but. But really, I mean. 1284 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:02,240 Think about it. I mean, put yourself in the 1285 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:04,440 personal position that I was in where it was. 1286 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,760 This guy wasn't just talking. My God was talking to my heart 1287 01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:10,760 while he was speaking. I mean each place. 1288 01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:12,200 That we went. It's just powerful to see the 1289 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:13,480 work. Anchor Faith Church is doing 1290 01:16:13,480 --> 01:16:14,480 that. I know people, let's say the 1291 01:16:14,480 --> 01:16:16,520 statement all the time, you know you, you don't know you're 1292 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:18,080 making history while you're making it. 1293 01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:19,800 But I actually think at Anchor Faith Church we're a little 1294 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,160 privileged. I think we actually know that 1295 01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:24,600 we're making history. I think that while it's 1296 01:16:24,600 --> 01:16:26,760 happening, we know what we're doing, 'cause we know what the 1297 01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:29,280 Lord's called us to do. We're doing it here at home. 1298 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,560 And this is what's this is what is the 1st and most important, 1299 01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:36,600 then the 2nd and also most important is US doing it in the 1300 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:38,480 nation. And then the third, also most 1301 01:16:38,480 --> 01:16:40,560 important because they're all just equally important. 1302 01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:42,680 Doing the whole vision is going into the world. 1303 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:45,440 If we don't have home right, we're not going to have world 1304 01:16:45,440 --> 01:16:47,040 right. But I'm thankful we have home 1305 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,160 right? We love each other. 1306 01:16:49,440 --> 01:16:51,680 We get, We walk in love with each other, we serve with one 1307 01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:53,280 another. Then we're able to go out and 1308 01:16:53,280 --> 01:16:55,560 show this culture to people who don't have the Kingdom. 1309 01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:56,680 Amen. Yeah, so. 1310 01:16:56,680 --> 01:17:00,400 Good. It is a culture and we have it. 1311 01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:05,480 It's the Kingdom. It's the Kingdom, you know so. 1312 01:17:05,480 --> 01:17:07,800 Again, every part we play is very significant. 1313 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:11,920 You know, again, we'll have a big video on Sunday so you can 1314 01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:14,000 see it more and more. You know, we want to keep 1315 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:16,560 everyone included because we understand that even though 1316 01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:21,000 you're not physically with us, you are there in spirit and we 1317 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:25,560 do not, you know, take that for granted and the and anytime we 1318 01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:29,480 have an opportunity to go anywhere, we realize how 1319 01:17:29,480 --> 01:17:32,760 valuable this place is, what we have. 1320 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:39,120 And you know, that's why we love taking people. 1321 01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:44,840 Because you know, the unfortunate thing is that you 1322 01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:48,360 expect me to say something like this or your pastor. 1323 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:52,080 Sure you would say that. I just wish you were inside me. 1324 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:57,960 I wish you really understood how much I value this place and this 1325 01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:03,240 ministry and you as people and to serve our king together. 1326 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:13,160 It's amazing and I do not want to take our luxury because it's 1327 01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:15,280 luxury. I don't want. 1328 01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:17,000 To take. Our luxury for granted. 1329 01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:18,960 I want us to be intentional. I. 1330 01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:22,960 Want us to be? Intentional. 1331 01:18:24,440 --> 01:18:26,120 You know. I guess I would like it at this 1332 01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:34,400 in closing. You know you can get strong and 1333 01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:40,480 good in anything, but it will have a limitation until you 1334 01:18:40,480 --> 01:18:43,640 start dealing with very specific details. 1335 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:48,720 And so the. The programs that are what we 1336 01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:53,440 call elite programs, if you go into their facilities, they have 1337 01:18:53,440 --> 01:18:58,600 it down to the to a science, OK. You're talking the. 1338 01:18:58,600 --> 01:19:03,240 Food, the workouts, the relationships, the study, the 1339 01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:06,080 whole culture. They'll talk about it. 1340 01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:13,040 The schools that don't have that, although they are doing 1341 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:15,920 some of the same things, they're not elite. 1342 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:21,400 And it's the. It's the places that recognize 1343 01:19:21,440 --> 01:19:24,680 we've been given the phenomenal practice field. 1344 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:27,920 We've had. The ability to have the 1345 01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:30,200 investment so that we can have the best stuff. 1346 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:34,800 So let's. Produce the best disciples. 1347 01:19:44,140 --> 01:19:48,020 Because the day's. Coming quickly and we'll talk 1348 01:19:48,020 --> 01:19:56,060 about April 7th at our twenty year anniversary service of the 1349 01:19:56,060 --> 01:20:00,100 work and there's no way I can go alone. 1350 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:03,440 I mean, I can't even go to all the places I can't even go. 1351 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:09,000 I have to. Send others, but they're 1352 01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:11,480 Timothy's. They're like minded. 1353 01:20:11,480 --> 01:20:16,160 They are the culture of the Kingdom that's here. 1354 01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:17,640 They're not seeking. Their own. 1355 01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:21,080 They are an. Extension. 1356 01:20:25,440 --> 01:20:27,880 And we'll be able to do. More because you have more. 1357 01:20:27,880 --> 01:20:31,320 People to send different groups, different things. 1358 01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:37,280 It's amazing. It's just amazing. 1359 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:44,280 I wouldn't trade. What? 1360 01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:48,800 We have for nothing. And I sure wouldn't want to have 1361 01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:52,000 to start over again. I would. 1362 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:57,720 But if I don't have to, and I just keep sending the group with 1363 01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:01,200 us and let us just keep multiplying, then let's just 1364 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:03,160 take over the world we're doing. It. 1365 01:21:03,160 --> 01:21:06,000 Anyway, let's do our part while we live. 1366 01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:12,720 Amen.
