1
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:21,720
Turn over to Psalms 1 of 103, 
verses 20 and 21. 

2
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,040
We're going to talk about being 
sent to serve tonight and how 

3
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,480
many enjoyed Sunday. 
Man, Sunday's got some things 

4
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,240
stirred up. 
And you know, we'll continue to 

5
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,760
capitalize on those in the 
future, I'm sure. 

6
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,240
But there's some things that 
God's placed in my heart because

7
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,080
this is the year of the reigning
church. 

8
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,440
Do you believe that? 
Do you believe that His church 

9
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,000
will reign forever? 
His church is going to be 

10
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,680
stronger and stronger and 
stronger as the world gets 

11
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,480
darker and darker and darker, 
OK. 

12
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:55,560
And the latter rain is going to 
be poured out to the church. 

13
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,760
That just makes us even more 
strong because we have the 

14
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,960
greater one. 
We have the Holy Ghost. 

15
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,120
Come on, we have the Holy 
Spirit, you know, and the Bible 

16
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,640
says, you know, what can man do 
to you when you have the Spirit 

17
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,640
of God? 
And so, you know, I'm excited 

18
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,720
about that. 
But we also have the Kingdom, 

19
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,480
and this is really important, 
you know, because I'm thankful 

20
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,880
that God has revealed to us by 
His Spirit that the things that 

21
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,440
are within his, the Word of God 
is more than just where are you 

22
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,920
going to go when you die. 
But it is destiny now. 

23
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,640
It is who you are in Christ 
today. 

24
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:37,000
It's who God wants you to be as 
a child while you're in the 

25
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,360
earth. 
And he's not withholding heaven 

26
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,320
from earth. 
He'll actually bring heaven to 

27
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:46,440
earth through you. 
So there are benefits that come 

28
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,240
not because we know where we go 
when we die. 

29
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,880
It's because the benefits of the
Kingdom exists today and so the 

30
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,160
Kingdom functions in the earth. 
If it could not function in the 

31
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,000
earth, then Jesus would be a 
liar. 

32
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,920
Leave that verse up. 
The reason why is because Jesus 

33
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,320
said when you pray, pray this 
way. 

34
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,200
Our Father, Whose father? 
Come on, whose father? 

35
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,840
So he's your father, and he's my
father, and he's Jesus's father.

36
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,480
So our Father, who art in 
heaven, hallowed be your name, 

37
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,080
your Kingdom, your will be on as
it is. 

38
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:24,840
So God has full expectation that
heaven's will can manifest in 

39
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,280
the earth even now. 
And the works that Jesus did 

40
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,160
were the works of his Father's, 
and they were miraculous, and 

41
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:36,720
they were heaven, heaven's realm
being made manifest in the 

42
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,360
earth, period. 
And we can have that today, no 

43
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,640
problem, because we are children
of God. 

44
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,120
Amen. 
And so the Bible is actually 

45
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,840
about a king, his Kingdom and 
his royal offspring, of which we

46
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,440
are his royal offspring. 
And in his Kingdom are not 

47
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,160
subjects. 
But there are kings He's the 

48
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,720
king of. 
Who are those kings? 

49
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:06,320
When are we those kings? 
Right now, now we may not feel 

50
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,200
like we're sitting on a throne 
and we may not feel like we're 

51
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,040
we're reigning in life, but in 
the spirit we are reigning in 

52
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,160
life. 
And one day we will reign 

53
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,640
naturally with Him when He 
returns with us to rule and 

54
00:03:19,640 --> 00:03:20,920
reign over the earth. 
Amen. 

55
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,480
So, but we can exercise that 
authority today because we are 

56
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,320
in a Kingdom. 
But the Kingdom of God or the 

57
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,200
Kingdom of light, the realm of 
heaven, is not limited to God 

58
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,160
alone. 
God is the one who's in supreme,

59
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,360
who's in supreme power, correct?
God is the one that we worship 

60
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:46,520
and we worship Him only. 
However, God has other created 

61
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:52,920
spirits that assist him and they
are called angels. 

62
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,720
So it says, bless the Lord, you,
his angels, mighty and strength,

63
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,640
who perform His word. 
So what do angels do? 

64
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,360
They perform His word, obeying 
the voice of His word. 

65
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:09,840
Bless the Lord all you, His 
host, you who serve Him, doing 

66
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,320
His will. 
What do the angels do now? 

67
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,800
They do His will. 
Now. 

68
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,360
There was a time that a 
rebellion occurred with an 

69
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:22,320
anointed cherub and others that 
God evicted them from his 

70
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,880
heavens realm where he exists. 
Well the Bible would consider 

71
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,680
the 3rd heaven. 
And why do we call it the 3rd 

72
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,040
heaven? 
Because Paul said I knew a man 

73
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,880
whether in body or out of body I
do not know, called up to the 

74
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,240
3rd heaven. 
That's where God lives. 

75
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,840
He evicted that rebellion and he
did it in a moment. 

76
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,960
Jesus said I saw Satan fall like
what lightning? 

77
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,240
How fast is lightning? 
So you understand this was not 

78
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:52,480
some long drawn out minute the 
the Almighty sovereign creator 

79
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:57,880
of all things got involved at a 
word he's gone, he's evicted OK.

80
00:04:58,280 --> 00:05:04,160
And so but the ones that have 
remained loyal to the Lord, they

81
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,440
serve him. 
They are there and they not only

82
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,960
serve him, there's others that 
they serve. 

83
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,280
And so in Daniel Chapter 7 verse
10, Speaking of the Angel realms

84
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:18,920
just so we can get a basis here 
to understand that angels exist.

85
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,680
It says a river of fire was 
flowing and coming out from 

86
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,360
before him. 
Thousands upon thousands were 

87
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,200
attending him, and a myriad upon
myriad were standing before him,

88
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,800
and the court sat and the books 
were open. 

89
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,400
Now, before the Lord, there are 
so many angels that they're 

90
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:41,680
considered not able to count. 
All right, so here they are, and

91
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,640
they are in. 
They are before the court of 

92
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,920
God. 
Again, courts are in kingdoms, 

93
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,680
not in religion, that's why. 
And Thrones are in kingdoms, not

94
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,960
in religion. 
The Bible's about Thrones, it's 

95
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,160
about courts. 
It's about these things. 

96
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,760
OK, Because this Bible is not a 
religious book. 

97
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,560
All right, So the angels are in 
God's court in heaven, and they 

98
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,880
are continually before his face.
Are you hearing me? 

99
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,200
How do we know this? 
Matthew chapter 18 verse 10 Look

100
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,760
what it says here. 
It says, see that you do not 

101
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,320
despise one of these little 
ones. 

102
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:22,840
For I say to you that there that
there angels in heaven 

103
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:26,080
continually see the face of my 
Father who is in heaven. 

104
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:31,000
Meaning they are looking at the 
Father for direction concerning 

105
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,520
the one that they are assigned 
to. 

106
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,440
The one that they are assigned 
to are angels assigned to 

107
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,080
people. 
Yes they are. 

108
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,000
I said yes they are. 
OK, look what it says in Psalms 

109
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000
34 seven. 
It says the angels of the Lord 

110
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,240
encamps around those who fear 
Him and rescues them. 

111
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,680
Do you walk in the fear of the 
Lord? 

112
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:01,840
Now, who fear him is not Oh, I'm
afraid of God. 

113
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:04,040
I'm always afraid of Him. 
And if he showed up, I'd be 

114
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,880
running and hiding. 
I'm so scared. 

115
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,360
God is a scary person. 
That's not what we're talking 

116
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:09,120
about. 
Who fear Him. 

117
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:15,920
These are people who honor Him 
with reverence, Meaning I would 

118
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:23,080
never want to do anything that 
would ever be displeasing to my 

119
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,000
Father. 
That is the fear of the Lord. 

120
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,880
So everything I'm doing, I'm 
taking in account. 

121
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,280
Does this please my father? 
Because my father sees 

122
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,440
everything I'm doing? 
There's nowhere in the world. 

123
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:47,680
There's no time, there's no room
that escapes his notice. 

124
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,640
There's not an idle word that he
doesn't hear. 

125
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,640
I just know no matter where 
you're at, God's in the room. 

126
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,920
I said God's in the room. 
No matter where you're at. 

127
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,960
Now, when you know that, then 
what that does for you, it puts 

128
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,040
you in a position where you'll 
continue to make the choices 

129
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,920
that are pleasing and honoring 
to him. 

130
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:19,880
But angels in camp around those 
who fear him, and they will 

131
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:20,840
rescue them. 
Hallelujah. 

132
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,240
Now look at what it says in 
Psalms 91. 

133
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:29,000
Psalms 91 verse 11 and 12 it 
says For he will give his angels

134
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,720
charge concerning you to guard 
you in all your ways. 

135
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,400
They will bear you up in their 
hands and you will not strike 

136
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:41,919
your foot against the stone. 
Well did not the devil use that 

137
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:47,800
verse on Jesus? 
Cause the devil knows if you are

138
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,560
the Son of God and he knows the 
realm of the spirit. 

139
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,040
He knows that God the Father's 
not the only one out there and 

140
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,920
that he's not only having to 
contend with him. 

141
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:04,440
I mean, when he goes into 
territories, there are another 

142
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,360
side of spirits that can get 
involved in territories. 

143
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,640
Are you hearing me? 
We know this in the book of 

144
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,800
Daniel. 
Daniel had a prayer. 

145
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,080
He was seeking the Lord and he's
doing this for 21 days. 

146
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:22,440
And finally an Angel by the name
of Gabriel comes through and 

147
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,240
Gabriel lets him know I came on 
the first day you've sought the 

148
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,640
Lord. 
In essence, my face was before 

149
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,320
the Father. 
And he said go give this message

150
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,880
to Daniel. 
But in route I hit some 

151
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,960
turbulence. 
Now I'm not saying that when you

152
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,800
hit actual turbulence, you're 
hitting spirits in the air. 

153
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,200
I am not saying that. 
I am not saying that. 

154
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,040
OK? 
So please do not. 

155
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,600
We just hit some spirits. 
You're not doing that when 

156
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:57,040
you're flying. 
I'm just saying he encountered a

157
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:03,280
Prince of power, a principality,
A demonic force that was in the 

158
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:08,400
air and wrestled with that 
spirit that was from the domain 

159
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:13,320
of darkness in the the Kingdom 
of darkness that is submitted or

160
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:19,040
yielded to Satan, who at that 
time is the God of this world 

161
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,400
and who actually has the 
dominion that Adam once 

162
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:31,840
possessed, wrestled and could 
not prevail, was not strong 

163
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:37,640
enough to be able to overcome. 
So he calls back to the 

164
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,920
Archangel Michael. 
Michael, who is strong enough, 

165
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:47,800
comes and holds that spirit he 
was wrestling with, and he goes 

166
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:53,040
on down and stands before Daniel
and receives a message from the 

167
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,360
Lord concerning the things he 
was seeking. 

168
00:10:55,400 --> 00:11:00,800
Are you hearing what I'm saying?
So the devil in his temptation 

169
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,200
of Christ knew that there's 
something else around. 

170
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,640
In essence, he might have been. 
Well, let's see if they're here.

171
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,000
Who am I contending with besides
you in the temptation? 

172
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,120
Now you understand Jesus didn't 
fall to that, you know, He just 

173
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,240
gave him the word. 
He didn't use one Angel at all 

174
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,920
in the temptation. 
He only used the word. 

175
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,200
However, at the end of the 
temptation, Matthew 411 says 

176
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,880
this. 
Then the devil left him and 

177
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,480
behold what happened. 
Angels came and began to 

178
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,920
minister to who? 
To Jesus. 

179
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,800
Now they did not come to 
minister Jesus solely because He

180
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:49,800
is God. 
They're coming to minister to 

181
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:55,560
him because he is the Son of man
as much as he is the Son of God.

182
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:03,160
Because angels do not minister 
just to God, they also minister 

183
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,280
to another, we could say species
of being. 

184
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:13,840
All right, we understand this, 
that Jesus understood that 

185
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,240
angels were in his arsenal of 
weaponry. 

186
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,200
They were because of the Kingdom
at his disposal. 

187
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,040
In Matthew chapter 26 verse 53, 
Jesus said this in the garden on

188
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,320
the night he was being betrayed.
When Peter pulls out his sword 

189
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:37,280
and cuts off a slave of the high
priest's ear and Jesus like, put

190
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:41,680
your sword up, heals the guy. 
He says this or do you not think

191
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:47,120
that I cannot appeal to my 
Father and he will at what once 

192
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:54,520
put at my disposal more than 12 
legions of angels, not just one,

193
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:59,880
but 12 legions now a legion and 
in in the Roman time were either

194
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,560
2000. 
Some have said it 6, most say 

195
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:07,400
22000. 
So let's go with the lower 

196
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:13,480
number. 
That's 24,000 angels and let's 

197
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,600
just stay with a low number. 
Why am I staying with a low 

198
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,800
number? 
Because there was a an event 

199
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,960
that occurred in the old 
covenant in our history books 

200
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:28,040
where a nation called the 
Midianites had come, you know, 

201
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:35,160
to besiege Israel. 
And the Lord sent 1 Angel, did 

202
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:40,160
this with the Assyrian army as 
well, One Angel, just one went 

203
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:46,000
through the camp and that one 
Angel killed 185,000 people. 

204
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:55,880
So you do the math 24,000 * 
185,000 how many people are 

205
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:02,040
dying just at that equation? 
That's your homework assignment,

206
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,440
All right, And bring it to me 
next Wednesday. 

207
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,080
All right, So you understand, 
He's like, don't you see what I 

208
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,720
have at my disposal? 
In essence, Jesus says I'm in 

209
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,280
the earth, but I'm in the 
Kingdom. 

210
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,000
My Father cares for me, but 
there are others that are with 

211
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:23,680
us. 
Elijah the prophet I believe was

212
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,200
Elijah was Elijah. 
I believe it was Elijah always. 

213
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,280
You know, these guys, they're so
close together. 

214
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,000
Was it Elijah that the that they
came to try to Yes, it was it 

215
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,560
was Elijah. 
They came to grab him 50 people 

216
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,480
in an army and he said, if I am 
a man of God, may fire come and 

217
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:42,040
consume you, right? 
But was it Elijah that was it 

218
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,520
was Elijah at a different time 
when someone came out after him,

219
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,880
he looked at his servant. 
He said don't worry about it, 

220
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,920
we're good. 
He said, you see how many people

221
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,440
are out there. 
He said, Lord, open the boy's 

222
00:14:55,440 --> 00:15:00,560
eye please, so that he can see 
or discern what I know to be 

223
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,440
true. 
And all of a sudden the eyes of 

224
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,920
that serpent servant, eyes, his 
eyes open, meaning spiritual 

225
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,680
eyes. 
He saw beyond the natural, and 

226
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,960
he saw on the top of the 
mountain that day, because they 

227
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,400
were in the valley, that they 
were angels. 

228
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,720
Chariots of fire, flaming sores,
completely encamped around the 

229
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,720
why? 
Because the scripture says that 

230
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,600
angels encamped around those who
fear him. 

231
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,080
And he said there are more with 
us than there are of them. 

232
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,960
And again, I don't know what 
that number was, but only one 

233
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:41,320
had to come down. 
Technically only one had to say 

234
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:46,120
I got this right and moved on, 
those men. 

235
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:51,760
So the point is, is do you know 
that you have angels? 

236
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,000
Do you know this? 
Now, again, I want to say the 

237
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,520
Bible's very clear. 
We do not worship angels, 

238
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:11,720
period. 
And you are not to you are not 

239
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,720
to worship them. 
You are not there to be begging 

240
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,840
them to do something for for 
you. 

241
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,000
In the sense that I need a 
leading from an Angel, No, Paul 

242
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,120
said. 
We are led by the Spirit. 

243
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:30,720
Now, however, if God chooses to 
allow an Angel to manifest and 

244
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,880
you're aware of that, fine, as 
long as it bears witness with 

245
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,600
your spirit, the Holy Spirit in 
you that that's what that is. 

246
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:44,520
Because even the devil will come
as a an Angel of light so it can

247
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:49,160
look, oh wow, look how gorgeous 
and beautiful and shiny it must 

248
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,280
be from God. 
But it's a counterfeit. 

249
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,320
And, and how will you know? 
Because of what they will say. 

250
00:16:56,040 --> 00:17:00,200
Because the enemy is a liar and 
he does not speak truth. 

251
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,320
So he will not rightly divide 
truth. 

252
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,200
Even if he uses scripture. 
The very scripture we just read 

253
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,280
he used on Jesus. 
But he had it out of context. 

254
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:15,960
He wanted Jesus to use it as 
self-serving selfish ambition. 

255
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:23,200
Prove yourself and Jesus like I 
don't have to prove nothing to 

256
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,440
you. 
I know who I am and I know what 

257
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,840
I'm going to do to you, and I'm 
not doing it your way. 

258
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,400
I'm staying with the Father. 
It is written. 

259
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,280
I said it is written. 
Amen. 

260
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,760
Hebrews chapter 1 or Hebrews 13,
two, says this. 

261
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:41,000
Do not neglect to show 
hospitality to strangers, for by

262
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,280
this some have entertained 
angels without knowledge. 

263
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,760
Now we've taken some time, I 
believe it was last year, where 

264
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,600
we conversed a little bit about 
the realm of angels and we 

265
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,560
talked about the seraphim and 
the cherubim. 

266
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,600
You know, we, you know, have 
some conversations about them 

267
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,240
that there's not just, you know,
one type and with that and then 

268
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:06,600
there's archangels. 
But when people, people try to 

269
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:11,960
pretend they're spiritual and 
that they have some maturity on 

270
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,080
you, when they would say, I, oh,
I see an Angel in the room right

271
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:22,400
now and they're this tall and 
they're there and then you're 

272
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,920
like, I don't see them. 
Well, obviously they're they're 

273
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,640
in another realm. 
And unless a veil's pulled, 

274
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,560
you're not. 
How many believe angels are in 

275
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,400
the room right now? 
They're absolutely in the room. 

276
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,200
Absolutely, and we don't have to
see that to know what we know 

277
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,960
based upon Scripture that 
they're encamped around those 

278
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,680
who fear him. 
However, angels have this 

279
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:51,560
appearance as a man that you can
entertain one and and be unaware

280
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,120
that you have. 
I know in one particular case in

281
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,480
my life, I did not see them, but
I obviously had a conversation 

282
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,000
with one because when I 
purchased my first home ever 

283
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,840
here, I did something I've never
done before by the spirit. 

284
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,640
I'd end up picking up the Saint 
Augustine record And there was 

285
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,800
this ad about getting financed 
for a particular house. 

286
00:19:13,120 --> 00:19:16,160
And I would never do this, but I
just like, I'm making this call.

287
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,480
And it was really more of an 
impression. 

288
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:18,920
Well, I got a person on the 
other end. 

289
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,760
I talked to them about this and 
they were super nice to me and 

290
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,560
they were talking and they, what
do you do? 

291
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,600
And I was telling them what I 
did and they're all, you know, 

292
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,720
my father was a pastor or 
minister, you know, and just 

293
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,000
talk like this, you know, and 
I'm like, OK, we're going to get

294
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,480
this for you. 
And I it was the easiest thing 

295
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,000
ever. 
I mean, it's like I I barely had

296
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,240
to do anything. 
And yes, you know, we were 

297
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,440
applying, you know, I had some 
places that deny did not, you 

298
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,280
know, what's it going to finance
for those letters showed up at 

299
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,920
the house that we were not. 
But I would call and say, Hey, I

300
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,680
got don't worry about it. 
We've got this. 

301
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,520
And sure enough, I got it and I 
got the house And they were so 

302
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,680
easy to work with. 
They were so amazing, you know, 

303
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,560
and happens to be that their 
father was a minister. 

304
00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:07,240
So I told someone that was with 
us at the time that was looking 

305
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,680
to buy, said you need to call 
them. 

306
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,800
These people were amazing. 
This, this person was awesome. 

307
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,360
Well, they called asked for by 
name and they said no one has 

308
00:20:16,360 --> 00:20:23,000
ever worked here by that name. 
Now I can't explain it beyond 

309
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,000
that. 
I'm just telling you, I was most

310
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,880
likely entertaining someone 
whose dad happens to be a 

311
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:35,760
minister. 
Are you hearing me now? 

312
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,080
I'm going to be honest with you.
I can't prove it. 

313
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,720
But you can't not prove it. 
That I'm sure there's times that

314
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:50,520
you came this close to an 
accident and it's most likely 

315
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:56,640
your Angel. 
Stop that car stood there, 

316
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,080
pulled some. 
I literally watched a lady in 

317
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,320
our church, I used to have a a 
podium that had it was like 

318
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,880
anchors, you know, it was 
crafted and it had points on the

319
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,080
ends and it was down here on the
floor and we were praying for a 

320
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,840
woman who had cancer and she 
under the power God fell. 

321
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,240
Well, the ushers were not around
and this was all concrete down 

322
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,480
here. 
I mean, they're like gone. 

323
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:33,200
Well, their head was going right
to the point of that anchor. 

324
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,880
I mean, right. 
And I'm telling you, I mean, I'm

325
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,840
like, you know how it's like 
slow motion. 

326
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,440
You're like, you want to move, 
but you're it's over. 

327
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,120
It's like it's going so fast, 
but it's going so slow at the 

328
00:21:44,120 --> 00:21:46,080
same time. 
And I'm watching it, you know, 

329
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:51,160
and you're like screaming on the
inside, right? 

330
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,520
You know, because you're like, 
gosh, doing something. 

331
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,120
Now they're head. 
Now we have to pray for their 

332
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:57,520
head and pray that their brains 
don't bleed out, you know, 

333
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,560
whatever. 
But I literally within when they

334
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:07,120
got about two inches, watched 
their head do this and it was 

335
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:10,560
like they were on a pillow. 
I was blown away. 

336
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,360
And I now could have been the 
Holy Ghost. 

337
00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:20,120
It could have just as easily 
been their Angel, could have 

338
00:22:20,120 --> 00:22:24,400
just as easily been their Angel.
So the question is though, why 

339
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,000
would we maybe entertain an 
Angel unaware? 

340
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,640
And I'm going to answer that 
question tonight. 

341
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,360
In Hebrews chapter 1, verses 13 
to 14, it says this. 

342
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,840
But to which of the angels has 
he ever said, sit at my right 

343
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:45,160
hand until I make your enemies a
footstool for your feet. 

344
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,760
Now we know that's Jesus, not an
Angel. 

345
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:49,760
He's never said that to an 
Angel. 

346
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,640
The Father, however, he says 
this in verse 14. 

347
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,000
Are they not all ministering 
spirits? 

348
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,320
Because in this part of Hebrews 
that we're talking about, Jesus 

349
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,240
is not an Angel. 
That's a different scenario. 

350
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,200
And he says, are they not all 
ministering spirits? 

351
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:11,400
That's angels sent out to render
service for, say, for, say, for 

352
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:16,600
that's purpose. 
So this is their purpose. 

353
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,760
They're sent out for. 
They're sent out to render 

354
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:27,920
service for the sake of those 
who will inherit salvation. 

355
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,560
Do angels inherit salvation? 
No, they do not. 

356
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:39,640
Angels have no salvation. 
Because when Lucifer was lifted 

357
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,640
up in pride, the King James 
calls him that. 

358
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,360
You know when Satan, all Bibles 
call him that or the devil, OK. 

359
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:50,040
When he was lifted up in pride 
as anointed cherub, salvation 

360
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,400
was not for him or any of the 
other ones, the ones that left 

361
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,640
their proper domain that we read
about in Jude, those who 

362
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:03,200
rebelled with him, none of those
have the ability to be saved 

363
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:08,760
ever. 
So salvation is not for angels. 

364
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,280
In fact, I think it's Peter that
talks about the things that we 

365
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:18,960
are receiving. 
They long to look at, but they 

366
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:24,160
are not a created being that has
the ability of having salvation.

367
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:30,240
So they have to stay true, but 
their assignment is to render 

368
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,200
service for the sake of those 
who will inherit salvation. 

369
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,360
Now this may make sense. 
Now look at Luke chapter 15 

370
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:43,360
verse 10. 
In the same way I will tell you,

371
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:48,480
talking about a parable of a 
lost coin, there is joy in the 

372
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:53,640
presence of the angels of God 
over 1 Sinner who repents. 

373
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:55,800
Why do you think they're 
rejoicing? 

374
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:05,520
Because they have another person
they can serve another one. 

375
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,280
Because they're here to render 
service to those who are heirs 

376
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,120
of salvation. 
They're not here to render 

377
00:25:12,120 --> 00:25:16,960
service to the lost. 
Can they impact the lost? 

378
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,640
Yes. 
But when they're impacting the 

379
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,560
lost, it's not good for the 
lost. 

380
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,040
If an angels engage in the lost,
it's it's not favorable. 

381
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:36,880
Usually someone's dying and it's
not the Angel. 

382
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:43,160
Are you hearing me? 
OK, but they render service for 

383
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,640
those who are heirs of 
salvation. 

384
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:50,040
So This is why such joy takes 
place, because angels are not 

385
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,320
idle. 
They are always active. 

386
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,360
They're active, They're not 
sleeping. 

387
00:25:59,120 --> 00:26:02,320
In fact, they will do 
assignments while you sleep. 

388
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:04,480
One of the reason why you can 
sleep. 

389
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,400
Not only do you know that your 
father cares for you and that he

390
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,120
will take care of anything he 
has for you. 

391
00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:13,960
Well, you know one reason why? 
Because he can deploy others on 

392
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:19,560
your behalf as well as you can 
deploy others on your behalf. 

393
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,880
Amen. 
So the word sent here is a Greek

394
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,280
word that means to send out on a
mission. 

395
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,680
It actually, if you read it, 
it's like Apollo, Apollo's 

396
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,360
tello. 
I think it's how you say it. 

397
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,040
It's very close to the word 
apostle. 

398
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,320
It's not the same Greek word, 
but it has a similar meaning 

399
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:46,720
because the apostle was a sent 
out one to be sent out and, and,

400
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:51,080
and this particular Greek word, 
they are sent to render service 

401
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,760
means they are sent out on a 
mission there. 

402
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,440
They have something that has 
been a directive and now they're

403
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,160
out. 
Gabriel was sent to go to 

404
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:05,920
Daniel. 
He was sent and he is going to 

405
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,360
accomplish that mission. 
So they're always active. 

406
00:27:08,360 --> 00:27:10,680
They're not idle and, and in 
their service. 

407
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:15,080
They're unselfish because 
they're there to accomplish what

408
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,160
the Lord has spoken. 
You understand, Gabriel didn't 

409
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,240
quit day one. 
What we would consider a day, 24

410
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,400
hours. 
You know, the Bible says with 

411
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,280
the Lord a day is like 1000 
years and 1000 years is like a 

412
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,360
day. 
So I'm not telling you that 

413
00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:33,480
Gabriel was conscientious of 
time, but the OR conscious of 

414
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,560
time. 
But the reality is, is that he 

415
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,880
was wrestling and when he was 
not prevailing, he didn't say, 

416
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:46,120
well flip, I tried. 
He didn't go back to the throne 

417
00:27:46,120 --> 00:27:50,040
and say I tried that. 
That guy was tough. 

418
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,360
I couldn't get through. 
You got another way you want to 

419
00:27:53,360 --> 00:27:59,080
do this? 
He was resilient. 

420
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,960
Well, if we could be resilient 
like that, even though, and the 

421
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,560
Bible tells us that we should 
like the one woman, pray, just 

422
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,320
keep praying. 
Just be persistent, be 

423
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,840
persistent. 
These angels are persistent. 

424
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,520
They will get it done. 
And when he could not prevail, 

425
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,680
he would not let the mission go.
He called for backup. 

426
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,840
I know a guy. 
I know a guy. 

427
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,240
I'm done with this. 
You know, I know a guy. 

428
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:34,000
OK, so they're unselfish and 
they're unobtrusive, meaning, 

429
00:28:34,120 --> 00:28:37,560
you know, they're not going to 
force their way on you per SE. 

430
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,240
They are in a mission. 
They're doing what they're 

431
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,400
called to do. 
And they will do this in ways 

432
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,560
that, again, you'll entertain 
them and will not even be aware 

433
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,320
you are. 
Now, that doesn't mean you can't

434
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,520
be aware because we understand 
that Daniel was aware and we'll 

435
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,440
see some others that people were
very much aware. 

436
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,600
That was not the Holy Ghost. 
That was not God the Father, 

437
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,600
That was not Jesus Christ 
reincarnated. 

438
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,720
This is an Angel. 
OK. 

439
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,440
So the aim of their mission is 
to help the Saints to make their

440
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,400
calling and election sure. 
They are here to make sure what 

441
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,400
you're called to do, you will 
accomplish. 

442
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:19,520
So not only do you have the Holy
Ghost in you as a child of God 

443
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,880
to bear witness that you are His
child, and then have His power 

444
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,600
come upon you so that you are 
extremely mighty and the gifts 

445
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,160
of the Spirit can flow through 
you. 

446
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:32,880
Glory to God, but then He has a 
myriad of angels at your 

447
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,960
disposal. 
How in the world could you not 

448
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:42,200
accomplish your purpose? 
Hallelujah. 

449
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,840
Now again, if Jesus is just 
religion to you, then all you're

450
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,960
thinking about is where am I 
going to go when I die? 

451
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,640
But when he's the Kingdom, 
you're like, who's in our army 

452
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,760
so that we can get the job done.
Hallelujah. 

453
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,520
Because you know what? 
If I'm hitting a particular 

454
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,800
wall, well, we need to enact 
some others to get in involved 

455
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:11,280
in this situation because from 
the domain of light, we never 

456
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,880
lose. 
We only win. 

457
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:19,600
I said we only win. 
So here's some characteristics 

458
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,480
of their ministry as found in 
Scripture. 

459
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:29,400
Angels will be instructors in 
Matthew chapter one, verse 20. 

460
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,680
Look at this and Angel came and 
said, but when he had considered

461
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,800
this, behold, an Angel of the 
Lord appeared to him in a dream 

462
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:43,200
saying, Joseph, son of David, do
not be afraid to take Mary as 

463
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:47,840
your wife, for the child who has
been conceived in her is of the 

464
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:53,080
Holy Spirit. 
Now Joseph has been away from 

465
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,960
Mary and it has come to his 
attention while he's preparing a

466
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,360
place for her to bring her home 
and be the the marriage is 

467
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,160
completely finished and 
consummated. 

468
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,360
Then he finds out she's with 
child. 

469
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:13,240
Joseph's like, wow, now, 
according to the law, she should

470
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:19,440
be killed, period. 
But he didn't want to do that, 

471
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,920
so he's going to divorce her and
send her away quietly. 

472
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,760
That's his intent. 
Well, we're not doing this, so 

473
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:33,880
that means the man's hurt. 
Oh, man, you understand the 

474
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,280
thoughts going through his mind,
and you understand the devil was

475
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,120
definitely probably bringing 
some thoughts anyway. 

476
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:43,080
Now, I don't, you know, I don't,
I don't, I'm not telling you 

477
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,480
that the devil knows that. 
He obviously went after him at 

478
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,880
some juncture. 
He obviously went after him, you

479
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,760
know, at a young age. 
The devil's like, just in case, 

480
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,240
let's kill this kid, right? 
That's why they had to run to 

481
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,840
Egypt. 
So if he is aware at the time 

482
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:02,320
and he's like, something's going
on with his married chick, you 

483
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,240
know, so he's like in Joseph's 
head. 

484
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,720
She's been whoring around on 
you, bro. 

485
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,120
You get rid of that one. 
Get rid of that. 

486
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,000
You should, Stoner. 
You know what? 

487
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,520
The law. 
But see, he didn't want to do 

488
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,920
that, so now he's looking at 
options. 

489
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:26,200
Well, you understand Joseph's 
not born again, so you know how 

490
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:30,840
well God wants him to know. 
He sends an Angel now. 

491
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:36,120
The angels in a dream though, so
he's asleep and while he's 

492
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,800
dreaming, this Angel comes in 
and he's aware that even though 

493
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:45,400
he's dreaming, this is an Angel 
from God and he tells him very 

494
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,600
specific instructions. 
Taker, Now you know what this 

495
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,440
means for Joseph. 
We don't talk about this a whole

496
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,960
lot, but that means Joseph and 
Mary were looked at their whole 

497
00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:00,320
life a certain way because do 
not think that Israel thought 

498
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:07,960
they were like uh huh. 
And they walked it anyway 

499
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,160
because they knew what was 
truth. 

500
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,800
Are you hearing me? 
So he heard from an Angel. 

501
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:20,560
It solidified in him that the 
child she has is of God. 

502
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,520
And you know, Mary ends up 
telling him, this is what 

503
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,640
happened. 
An Angel showed up at my house 

504
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,080
and communicated to me and 
that's the only reason he said, 

505
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,560
you know, an Angel talked to me 
too. 

506
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,680
So gave him instruction. 
Here's another one in Acts 

507
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,120
chapter 10 starting in verse 3 
says this. 

508
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:43,280
It says now on the 9th hour. 
Now this is this is after the 

509
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,760
death, burial and resurrection 
of Jesus. 

510
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,760
Now after the 9th hour of the 
day, he he clearly saw in a 

511
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,920
vision an Angel of God who had 
just come in and said to him, 

512
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,600
Cornelius. 
So Cornelius is in prayer. 

513
00:33:55,800 --> 00:34:00,240
He's a Gentile, he's not from 
Israel, he's not the nation of 

514
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,400
Israel. 
In essence, he's a heathen, 

515
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:08,199
right Gentile. 
And but yet he is honoring God 

516
00:34:08,199 --> 00:34:11,360
the best way he knows. 
And he's giving alms and his 

517
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:19,040
alms, his financial giving has 
made it to the ears of the Lord.

518
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:28,400
And the Lord sends an Angel in 
order to give him instruction on

519
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:33,120
how he can be born again and get
into his Kingdom. 

520
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,679
So this Angel shows up and says 
Cornelius. 

521
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,159
And then jump down to verse 5. 
It says this. 

522
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:48,080
He says now dispatch some men to
Joppa send for a man named Simon

523
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,719
who was also called Peter. 
He is staying with a Tanner 

524
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,239
named Simon whose house is by 
the sea. 

525
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:58,280
Now I see this Angel give gave 
him very specific instructions. 

526
00:35:00,720 --> 00:35:05,960
The Lord has heard has has 
received the the prayers of your

527
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,640
and the and your alms that you 
give to the poor. 

528
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,680
He's recognizing that that 
you're doing all you can based 

529
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,840
upon what you know. 
And the Angel now is not 

530
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,080
authorized to preach this 
gospel, not in this 

531
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:23,640
dispensation. 
So he has to go to the one 

532
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:28,480
authorized, which is a man and 
he says go find this guy named 

533
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,440
Peter. 
This is where he's at. 

534
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,400
And you know, the minute that 
Angel left, he grabbed some 

535
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:34,920
guys, said I want you to go to 
Joppa. 

536
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,360
I want you to go to this guy. 
There's a guy that lives there. 

537
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,040
Find out who he is, the name 
Simon. 

538
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,520
He's a Tanner and apparently he 
lives by the sea. 

539
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,880
So go to the coast and get to 
the house, find Peter and ask 

540
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,560
him to come come back. 
Now you understand all the wild 

541
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,440
God in a different vision, not 
with an Angel, but it's talking 

542
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,000
to Peter and says some guys are 
coming for you, go with him. 

543
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,240
So when he comes to Cornelius's 
house and he begins to share 

544
00:35:58,240 --> 00:36:02,480
with him the way of salvation 
through Jesus Christ as Lord, 

545
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,880
how does he know that Cornelius 
and his house gets it? 

546
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,640
They all begin to start speaking
in other tongues and he's like, 

547
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,520
wow, the same thing that was 
poured out on us on the day of 

548
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,880
Pentecost has hit a bunch of 
Gentiles. 

549
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:21,320
So God obviously is broadening 
this beyond Israel. 

550
00:36:23,240 --> 00:36:27,440
Can I get an Amen? 
So you could. 

551
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:32,000
You don't have to. 
I'm just saying I'm not asking 

552
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,640
an Angel to come to give me 
instruction. 

553
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,080
I asked the Lord. 
However, if the Lord wanted an 

554
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:42,600
Angel to to reveal that 
information that then would be 

555
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:48,720
quickened in my spirit by the 
Holy Ghost, then we could 

556
00:36:48,720 --> 00:36:52,360
receive it that way. 
And let me tell you, it doesn't 

557
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,360
make you more spiritual. 
I'm going to hammer that for 

558
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,320
quite some time. 
Having an Angel talk to you is 

559
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,760
no sign of spiritual maturity. 
Cornelius is lost. 

560
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:08,280
There's no spiritual maturity 
about him. 

561
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:14,960
He's seeking. 
OK, All right. 

562
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:17,640
It's amazing. 
In these last days, people are 

563
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:22,600
going to act like they're 
hearing from angels to get you 

564
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,520
off. 
Now notice these angels are 

565
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,320
talking to these people 
directly. 

566
00:37:39,470 --> 00:37:41,550
Just running through scripture 
right now in my spirit. 

567
00:37:52,970 --> 00:37:56,290
I'm not seeing any and I'll have
to study this. 

568
00:37:56,290 --> 00:38:00,370
I'm it just popped up in my 
spirit now I'm seeking I'm just 

569
00:38:00,370 --> 00:38:05,680
not seeing 1 today right now, 
but I can verify I'm not seeing 

570
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:10,080
any occasion where an Angel was 
spoken to one person to go talk 

571
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,080
to someone else on behalf of the
Angel. 

572
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,000
The angel's instruction was 
always for the individual. 

573
00:38:16,240 --> 00:38:19,280
It doesn't mean Peter, but Peter
got instruction from the Holy 

574
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:20,680
Ghost. 
They didn't say an Angel said 

575
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,720
for you to come. 
The guys just said, hey, 

576
00:38:23,720 --> 00:38:30,360
Cornelius asked for you to come 
and he was coming because he got

577
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:31,920
a word from God, not from an 
Angel. 

578
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,280
But most of the other occasions 
the angels are talking to the 

579
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,720
individual. 
So when someone says an Angel 

580
00:38:36,720 --> 00:38:41,040
came to talk to me about you, 
that's called red flag. 

581
00:38:46,720 --> 00:38:48,600
That's a foul. 
That's right there. 

582
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:54,440
You'd be like, ho, hold the 
horses, say no more, say no 

583
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,000
more. 
I'm full of the Holy Ghost. 

584
00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:00,040
Don't need an Angel to talk to 
you about me to deliver a 

585
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:04,800
message to me. 
Are you hearing me OK? 

586
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,560
The second characteristic of 
their ministry is they are 

587
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,600
deliverers. 
They will deliver you. 

588
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,360
Look at Daniel chapter 6 verse 
22. 

589
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,840
It says this. 
My God sent an Angel and shut 

590
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:22,640
the my a lion's mouths, and they
have not harmed me in so much as

591
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,760
I was found innocent before him.
And also towards you O king, I 

592
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,640
have committed no crime. 
Now, this is an interesting 

593
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,240
little twist here because 
technically Daniel had committed

594
00:39:33,240 --> 00:39:38,760
a crime in the context that the 
people that were under him were 

595
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:43,440
so jealous of him, they tricked 
the king to make a law that 

596
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:49,600
would put him in a position. 
What Daniel was saying is he is 

597
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:55,960
that people manipulated and made
law to try to have me go against

598
00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,000
the law of my my Lord and his 
always supersedes. 

599
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,960
And my heart was never to be 
against you or to go against 

600
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,880
your decrees, but I cannot go 
against my God. 

601
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,320
And they were using that. 
Are you hearing me? 

602
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,560
But God knew that, and he 
vindicated him. 

603
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,680
Hallelujah. 
And how did he vindicate him? 

604
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:26,120
He sent angels, which tells us 
the lions were hungry all night.

605
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,000
First of all, they were already 
hungry, and they were hungry 

606
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,800
more. 
Now, if I'm not around the 

607
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,120
kitchen when I'm hungry, I'm I 
can usually be all right. 

608
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:43,120
But the minute I start smelling 
food, now this is the problem 

609
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,720
when you're hungry because then 
your stomach starts talking 

610
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,880
besides your mind knowing you 
haven't eaten yet and it will 

611
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:55,520
talk and it will cause pain. 
So you understand, those lions 

612
00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:07,560
smelled Daniel all night and 
could not open their mouths and 

613
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,960
it made them mad. 
How do we know 'cause when the 

614
00:41:11,240 --> 00:41:15,240
others got dropped in that 
morning, they didn't even get it

615
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:21,080
get to the floor before they 
were devoured by the lie. 

616
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:25,040
They're like, man, we've been 
waiting all night. 

617
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:38,800
So the Lord did not 'cause the 
lions to not be hungry he had to

618
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,760
send angels to hold their 
mouths. 

619
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,800
Now I don't know what that looks
like. 

620
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,960
I know what it looks like in the
natural when I would hold my 

621
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,880
dog's, you know, mouth. 
You know, my foot have to give 

622
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,120
Tybee something. 
He hold her mouth, you know make

623
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,400
sure she swallows it. 
You know they those things could

624
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:03,080
have been shaking all night long
trying to get their mouth open, 

625
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,880
you know and try and they could 
have been fighting the whole 

626
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:10,400
night. 
Daniel's like, this is crazy, 

627
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,120
I'm going to go to sleep. 
There's obviously some piece 

628
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:15,360
that came on him because he 
slept. 

629
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,640
I think we imagine that he's 
laid up on all the lions and 

630
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,960
they're just like, oh, I don't 
know that it was the case. 

631
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,800
I think they were mad. 
And the angels are like, we got 

632
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,040
it, we got it, Daniel, we got 
it, it. 

633
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,280
It's OK, we got it. 
It's OK. 

634
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,240
You think you got something I 
got you and all night long. 

635
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,640
And Daniel's like you got it, 
OK. 

636
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:46,160
Who's that? 
Oh, King, I'm good, right? 

637
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:51,240
OK, they delivered the next 
one's in Acts chapter 519. 

638
00:42:51,240 --> 00:42:55,320
This happened to Peter twice in 
Acts 519, it says, but during 

639
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,080
the night an Angel, the Lord 
opened the gates of the prison 

640
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,360
and taking them all out ends up 
saying I go and preach 

641
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:06,040
somewhere. 
So they've been arrested, but an

642
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:10,200
Angel breaks them out. 
It happens again in Acts chapter

643
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,480
12 verse 7. 
This time Peter has fallen 

644
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:18,160
asleep and an Angel Lord appears
and a light shows up in the cell

645
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,800
and he strikes Peter's side, 
wakes him up saying get up 

646
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,960
quickly and his chains fall off 
of his hands. 

647
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,320
Now I know a lot of prison 
people that would love for this 

648
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,200
to take place today. 
I get it. 

649
00:43:31,720 --> 00:43:34,320
Could it? 
Yes it could. 

650
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:40,240
I'm not saying it cannot, but 
you understand Peter's 

651
00:43:40,240 --> 00:43:45,240
incarceration, you know, it's a 
little different than others 

652
00:43:45,240 --> 00:43:47,720
incarcerations. 
All right. 

653
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,880
And so they fell off and this 
happened. 

654
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:55,480
Would now we have no account of 
angels with Paul and his prison 

655
00:43:56,240 --> 00:43:59,120
cell opening. 
But could angels have been 

656
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:00,800
involved in the earthquake? 
I don't know. 

657
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,080
But in these two cases, angels 
are actively involved in the 

658
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,360
realm of deliverance. 
Amen. 

659
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:09,680
All right. 
The next thing is, is they are 

660
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:11,160
comforters. 
They'll comfort you. 

661
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:12,880
An Angel can show up to comfort 
you. 

662
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:16,280
Now, they are not the comforter,
but they can give a word of 

663
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:21,800
comfort because again, they are 
ministering spirits that are 

664
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:25,520
sent out to render service to us
who are heirs of salvation. 

665
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,040
This is why you may sit by 
someone one day and they 

666
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,520
encourage you and you're like, 
man, I just feel real better. 

667
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:33,880
I'm glad. 
And that could have been an 

668
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,600
Angel the whole time and you 
didn't even know it. 

669
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,840
This is why you always want to 
show hospitality, because 

670
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:45,000
sometimes God may have sent that
Angel to do this very bidding 

671
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,960
and you're unaware of that. 
Or maybe you engage one because 

672
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:55,040
they've been sent for someone 
else that's coming and you've 

673
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,320
entertained them, and although 
they're not directly for you, 

674
00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:03,360
they're for someone else. 
Could be all right, but they are

675
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,320
there. 
They're there to help comfort. 

676
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,760
Look at Luke chapter 2, verses 9
to 14. 

677
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,040
It says an Angel of the Lord 
suddenly stood before them, and 

678
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,880
the glory of the Lord shone 
around them, and they were 

679
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,120
terribly frightened. 
But the Angel said to them, do 

680
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,960
not be afraid. 
For behold, I bring you good 

681
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:23,800
news of great joy with which you
will be for all the people for 

682
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,920
today. 
Come on, say today, today in the

683
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,680
city of David there has been 
born for you as Savior, who is 

684
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,120
Christ the Lord. 
This will be assigned to you, 

685
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,720
and you'll find a baby wrapped 
in clothes, lying in a Manger, 

686
00:45:35,720 --> 00:45:37,680
right? 
And suddenly there appeared with

687
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,960
the Angel a multitude of 
heavenly hosts praising God and 

688
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:44,120
saying glory to God in the 
highest on earth, peace among 

689
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,680
men with whom he is pleased. 
Hallelujah. 

690
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,400
So we see here they brought 
comfort to the shepherds. 

691
00:45:51,240 --> 00:45:57,640
How about Acts chapter 27, last 
Scripture, Acts 2723 to 24 says 

692
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:02,320
this. 
For this very night an Angel of 

693
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:07,520
the Lord, to whom I belong and 
whom I serve, stood before me. 

694
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:10,880
Now he doesn't serve the Angel, 
he serves God. 

695
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,440
So he's saying the very night, 
an Angel of the Lord to whom I 

696
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,240
belong, I belong to God, and 
that God I serve. 

697
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:21,080
He sent an Angel saying, what 
did the Angel say? 

698
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,440
Do not be afraid, Paul. 
You must stand before Caesar. 

699
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,360
And behold, God has granted you 
all those who are selling with 

700
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,200
you. 
So Paul's doing two things in 

701
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,880
his prayer during this time on 
the ship that's about to go 

702
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,840
down. 
He is #1 reminding God of His 

703
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,080
word concerning himself. 
And he said, now you said I 

704
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,760
would stand before Caesar. 
So I cannot die out here. 

705
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:46,240
I'm reminding you of your word. 
You are God that does not lie. 

706
00:46:46,240 --> 00:46:48,800
You do what you say. 
So I cannot die here. 

707
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,200
And everything tells me we going
to to die, but I do not believe 

708
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,360
I tried to not get out here in 
the 1st place. 

709
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,480
They did not listen. 
I'm a prisoner that's why I'm 

710
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,360
here. 
But now that I'm here and it's 

711
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:02,520
going just like you warned us, 
I'm letting you know I cannot 

712
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:06,120
die out here because you said I 
would be before Caesar. 

713
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,080
So the angels telling him you 
must stand before Caesar. 

714
00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,320
You are correct. 
But Paul's also saying now, 

715
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:18,320
Lord, I warned them, I'm asking 
you to be merciful. 

716
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,800
I know you're going to save me. 
You have to. 

717
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:24,480
But I don't want to be the only 
one. 

718
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,400
And I know that you want all of 
us saved. 

719
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,040
I know that you desire that none
perish. 

720
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:34,800
Lord, give them an opportunity. 
I'm asking for their lives. 

721
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,600
And what did you say? 
God has what granted, which 

722
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:43,480
means he was requesting granted 
all you, all those who are 

723
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,800
selling with you. 
That's why later on when a 

724
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,480
couple of them wanted to jump 
ship and go out on their own, 

725
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,880
Paul, one translator says I 
cannot guarantee your life 

726
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:54,520
unless you stay with a ship. 
If you go out on your own, then 

727
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,480
you're on your own. 
But if you stay with us, I'm 

728
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:57,800
telling you, you're going to 
make it. 

729
00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:59,840
Why? 
Because I have a word from God 

730
00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:02,880
and that word from God came 
through an Angel. 

731
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:07,760
Although Paul is the one who 
said we are to be led by the 

732
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:13,080
Spirit now, this Angel only 
confirmed what he's having in 

733
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:20,800
his spirit then period. 
He understands that, but yet in 

734
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:25,960
this situation is in the chaos 
there in God is for whatever 

735
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:30,440
reason needed him to know a 
little more emphatically than 

736
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,400
just an inward witness. 
This is going to occur. 

737
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,320
Are you hearing me? 
And I'll just tell you this, you

738
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,040
know, a lot of times people want
these like supernatural 

739
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,400
expressions. 
Kenneth Y Hagin said this 

740
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:53,240
concerning the times that he was
either through a dream or a 

741
00:48:53,240 --> 00:48:59,080
vision, either had a 
conversation with an Angel or 

742
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:05,720
with the Lord Jesus himself. 
He said when those occurred, I 

743
00:49:05,720 --> 00:49:11,560
knew that it would be more 
difficult, that what was going 

744
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,880
to come was going to be more 
difficult. 

745
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:20,600
That's why he manifested. 
I'm going to say that again. 

746
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:28,080
When those manifestations, life 
became more difficult and 

747
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:33,600
because he had seen it 
strengthen him to go through 

748
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,680
that. 
Had he not had that, he's not 

749
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,800
sure he would have finished that
course. 

750
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:50,200
So in essence, he wasn't wanting
because he knew there's going to

751
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:56,440
be great resistance now. 
But now I know for me who was, 

752
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,760
you know, raised in a 
denominational church that did 

753
00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,160
not minister on the power of the
Holy Ghost and the baptism of 

754
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:06,120
the Holy Spirit at all, just 
about how to be saved, where 

755
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:10,000
you're going to go when you die.
Honestly, I didn't know how to 

756
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,440
be led by the Spirit at all. 
But I was seeking the Lord and, 

757
00:50:15,240 --> 00:50:19,760
and when I was in Atlanta, GA 
heading to work, praying and I 

758
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:24,080
had an open vision and I saw 
myself standing and in front of 

759
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,320
a sea of people, I could not 
count them, but I knew I was 

760
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:31,880
preaching. 
But I'm going to tell you I've 

761
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:42,000
had plenty of opportunities to 
quit, but that vision compels 

762
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,080
me. 
I cannot let it go. 

763
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:49,280
It was that real. 
I can still see it right now in 

764
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,200
my spirit, but it had great 
opposite. 

765
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:57,440
It's had great opposition to it.
OK, now I think in part it was 

766
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,120
because I wasn't baptized in the
Holy Ghost and I didn't know. 

767
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:05,960
I'm not saying so. 
My point is, is that being led 

768
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:09,680
by an inward witness is amazing 
and you should just stick with 

769
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,760
that. 
However, if something else 

770
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,960
occurs, know that it could be 
that there would be more 

771
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:21,000
persecution associated with a 
visitation. 

772
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,520
I'm just trying to give you a 
little legwork because there's a

773
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:30,160
lot of people who are pretending
they're seeing and some may 

774
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:34,520
actually be seeing, but it's 
another realm disguised and 

775
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:45,240
light and they so want that. 
But the evidence of these 

776
00:51:45,240 --> 00:51:47,480
particular cause what what did 
here? 

777
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:48,840
I'll give you one more. 
Thank you, Holy Ghost. 

778
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,720
The Lord said what did Elijah 
tell Elijah? 

779
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,800
He said what do you want? 
He said I want a double portion.

780
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:01,960
He says you've asked for a hard 
thing. 

781
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:08,720
However, how will he receive it?
You're going to have to see me 

782
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:11,080
go. 
You're going to be able to have 

783
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:15,000
that discernment in the realm of
the Spirit. 

784
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:19,040
And he did that then was 
confirmed where is the God of 

785
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:20,920
Elijah? 
And he hid it. 

786
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:27,600
But man, did he have some 
challenges, right? 

787
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,480
So a lot of times people want to
be the Elijah of their 

788
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,920
generation, but they don't want 
the persecution that comes with 

789
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:40,160
those types of mantels. 
Just telling you right now, just

790
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,520
be what God's called you to be, 
because if you're lusting for 

791
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:45,080
that anyway, you're already in 
trouble. 

792
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,280
Which means if you're lusting 
for Angel visitations, you're 

793
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:53,160
already in trouble. 
But I do want you to know angels

794
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:57,040
are here for us. 
Glory to God, and we should be 

795
00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,200
excited. 
And if I never see the angels 

796
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,720
that are encamped around me, I 
do know this. 

797
00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:06,880
They are working on my behalf. 
They are rendering service for 

798
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,040
me. 
They are being deployed, They 

799
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:13,440
are influencing people to sow 
financially towards the vision 

800
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,520
God has here. 
They are speaking to people to 

801
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:20,920
open up favor so that I receive 
favor in different business 

802
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:24,520
dealings or just different 
countries I may need to get or 

803
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,200
other of ways of escape of 
situation. 

804
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,440
I mean, angels are orchestrating
things that I probably will not 

805
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:37,640
know this side of how they stood
in places that safeguarded my 

806
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:43,000
life and kept me from harm's 
way, but I acknowledge that 

807
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:47,360
they're there and in there's in 
those moments where I like I'm 

808
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,720
like, thank you, father, that 
you have angels and camped 

809
00:53:50,720 --> 00:53:54,000
around me and Lord, if one just 
helped me today. 

810
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,760
I just want to give you honor 
and glory. 

811
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:59,080
I don't, I don't worship the 
Angel that I worship God. 

812
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:04,360
Thank you, Lord, if you use one 
of the angels today to help me 

813
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,640
in this situation, that 
situation, to bring this in to 

814
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:11,480
open that door. 
Thank you Lord, because when 

815
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,920
there's situation I like, we 
need some angels involved then 

816
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:19,720
we can release them and they are
waiting for us to do so.
