1
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,400
Today I want to talk to you 
about spiritual intuition. 

2
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,240
OK, turn over to 1st John 
chapter 4. 

3
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,600
We'll start in verse one again. 
We are going to conclude what 

4
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,760
what we've been discussing the 
last couple of weeks concerning 

5
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,680
the seven spirits of God and it 
says this in first John chapter 

6
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,920
4 verse one. 
Beloved, do not believe every 

7
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,720
spirit, but test the spirits to 
see whether they are from God. 

8
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,760
Notice that there are more than 
one spirit. 

9
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,200
Now this is not capitalized, so 
we know this is not referencing 

10
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,640
the Spirit of God or the Holy 
Spirit or God as a spirit. 

11
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,720
But there are other spirits. 
In fact, you yourself, you are a

12
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,560
spirit. 
On the inside is the spirit of 

13
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,280
man. 
Everyone here has a spirit, OK? 

14
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,280
Then we have a soul realm. 
That's our mind, will and 

15
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,520
intellect, OK, where our 
emotions are at all that sits 

16
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,520
there and and your soul and your
spirit are extremely connected. 

17
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,080
OK, There's still two different 
aspects of you because the Bible

18
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,480
talks about our spirit, soul and
body in Hebrews chapter 4 and 

19
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,080
also in First Thessalonians 
chapter 5, that there is a 

20
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,560
three-part to man. 
But again, we separate those for

21
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,800
the sake of teaching. 
We are not to disassociate them 

22
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,960
with our lives. 
In fact, there's certain 

23
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,080
ministers that are not from the 
circles of teaching that we are 

24
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,800
from where we emphasize the 
spirit of man a lot. 

25
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,480
And so they struggle a lot of 
times when it comes to the soul 

26
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,600
of man because they do not 
understand when we sometimes say

27
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,760
we don't live by how we feel and
because, you know, there's an 

28
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,120
association with feeling. 
And I said, now all we're saying

29
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,280
is our first initial feeling is 
not how we're going to respond. 

30
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,600
We first start with the Spirit, 
but the Spirit should change how

31
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,720
you feel. 
Why do we know this? 

32
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,360
Because the Bible tells us that 
He'll turn your sorrow into 

33
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,040
gladness. 
So you can be in a situation 

34
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,960
that sorrow is the first 
feeling. 

35
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,560
However, if you yield to the 
Spirit, you can turn that sorrow

36
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,480
into joy, and now your feeling 
is joy. 

37
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:28,000
And that's an accurate place to 
yield to because the Spirit 

38
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000
turned it the same thing. 
You can be in chaos and all of a

39
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,200
sudden have peace beyond your 
understanding. 

40
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,600
Now you feel peace. 
OK. 

41
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,440
And the feeling of peace is what
you're following because it 

42
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,880
originated first from the 
Spirit. 

43
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,160
And a lot of times we say, well,
follow peace. 

44
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,080
Well, peace is how you feel. 
And when you're in a chaotic 

45
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,720
situation, you don't feel 
anything but peace. 

46
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,800
But when you yield to the spirit
of man, who would can speak to 

47
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,880
the Holy Spirit in you hears 
from the Holy Spirit, then you 

48
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,440
can put all one piece beyond 
your understanding and then 

49
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,520
navigate. 
So then your emotion or soul 

50
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,000
realm and your spirit realm come
into alignment. 

51
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,200
Then guess what, it will make 
your body subject, meaning 

52
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,880
you're going to do what I say 
now. 

53
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:22,480
OK, so again in relationships 
you feel that they are gorgeous 

54
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,000
and you are very attractive, but
then you hear that they are not 

55
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,640
born of God. 
So what you do is you don't go 

56
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:36,560
by how you feel and how you see.
You realize they're disqualified

57
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,280
at this point in my life because
I will not be in a relationship 

58
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,480
with someone I am unequally 
yoked with. 

59
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,760
Their spirit is cut off from 
God, mine is not. 

60
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:50,360
And it is not my assignment to 
try to get them born again and 

61
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:59,000
through a relationship because 
many ungodly spirits inside 

62
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:07,360
vessels will come to church with
a believer, Hallelujah and fake 

63
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:15,680
a praise and an offering just to
coerce you into the bed. 

64
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,440
Say Amen anyway. 
All right. 

65
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,400
And then once they've conquered 
you, they go on and you're like,

66
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:28,320
but I thought God said, well, if
God's saying then function like 

67
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,280
God, be a perfect peace and 
patience. 

68
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:35,480
You don't have to push, 
manipulate, or have to get 

69
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,520
involved to make sure that it 
turns out the way you want. 

70
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,240
Amen. 
So with that being said, then 

71
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:48,600
our spirit and soul, they should
become aligned right to where 

72
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,040
our feelings are not fake. 
Our feelings are by the spirit 

73
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,200
and should transform and change,
and then we put our body into 

74
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,560
subjection. 
Well, there are spirits beyond 

75
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,760
our spirit. 
There are angelic beings, there 

76
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,400
are unclean spirits. 
There are familiar spirits. 

77
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,400
There are demonic spirits. 
You understand there are other 

78
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:14,080
realms where spirits exist. 
And 1st John, John the ride, the

79
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,640
apostle John, the writer of 
first John, says you need to 

80
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,360
test everyone. 
Now, here's the thing. 

81
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,920
If you do not know the Word, you
cannot test them. 

82
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,520
You're not qualified to give 
them a test. 

83
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:32,640
In essence, you will fail every 
time because you cannot line 

84
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:38,200
what the spirits are saying up 
to truth to the Word of God. 

85
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,840
So he says, test every spirit to
see whether they are from God. 

86
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,240
Then you get down to verse 4. 
It says you are from God. 

87
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,040
Say I'm from God, little 
children, and have overcome 

88
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:54,640
them, because greater is he who 
is in you than he who is in the 

89
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,480
world. 
Say Amen, so we have the greater

90
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,280
one on the inside. 
It is the reigning Spirit that 

91
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:07,000
we possess, and the reigning 
Spirit is on assignment to us. 

92
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:14,280
Again, Jesus did not introduce 
the reigning Spirit through His 

93
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:18,400
gifts. 
When he first minute mentions 

94
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,320
about the Holy Spirit, it was 
not about his gifts. 

95
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,920
He said this is what the Spirit 
of truth is going to do. 

96
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,120
It didn't say He's going to give
you gifts so that you can 

97
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,560
prophecy. 
He's going to give you gifts so 

98
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,960
that you can raise the dead 
through the working of miracles 

99
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,480
and the gifts of faith and the 
gifts of healing. 

100
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,600
Then say that. 
Yet how many believers are only 

101
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,120
seeking the Spirit, Holy Spirit 
for those areas. 

102
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,560
The Holy Spirit he did not 
introduce and say now he's going

103
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:52,200
to give you profound insight 
into people's lives to where 

104
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,000
you'll know what's going on in 
their life. 

105
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,480
That's the first thing he's 
going to do. 

106
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,440
That is not it. 
He introduced the Holy Spirit 

107
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,040
this way. 
He's first words are John 14. 

108
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,280
He will cause things to come to 
your remembrance that I have 

109
00:07:06,280 --> 00:07:10,000
said the number one thing the 
Holy Ghost is going to do is 

110
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,520
remind you say remind you. 
So if you're coming and saying I

111
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,800
got a word from God, but you 
can't even hear him to remind 

112
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,400
you to live by the fruits of the
Spirit and keep your flesh under

113
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,040
control. 
I may question whether you've 

114
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:30,640
heard him accurate or not. 
Do not be a gullible believer 

115
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,640
that when someone says I heard 
from the Lord, he wants me to 

116
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,080
tell you this. 
Well, first and foremost, could 

117
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,120
you be someone who's not 
following God really well? 

118
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,200
And God can utilize a person, 
that is true, but the majority 

119
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,520
of the time He is not using that
person to do those things if 

120
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,960
they themselves cannot first 
hear Him according to the Word. 

121
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,560
To live by the Word. 
Though, if you're around people 

122
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,120
who habitually are living carnal
and yet they act like they 

123
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:07,600
always have a word from God, you
need to start throwing a test 

124
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,760
out. 
Hold it right now. 

125
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:15,080
This is a test. 
This is only a test because I am

126
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,920
not obligated to receive what 
you're about to say to me. 

127
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,320
Amen. 
Because Jesus introduced the 

128
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:27,560
Holy Spirit by saying He's going
to cause you to remember what I 

129
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:33,039
said, which means you have to 
become a study of the Word to 

130
00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:36,960
give Him some things to remind 
you about, Amen. 

131
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:41,360
Even in this dispensation under 
the age of grace where you are 

132
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:46,680
born of the Spirit of God, we 
still have the same issues of 

133
00:08:46,680 --> 00:08:49,720
the old covenant and every 
dispensation before. 

134
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,400
And that's called being a 
forgetful hearer. 

135
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,640
Because if it wasn't prevalent 
in our lives, then the Holy 

136
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,560
Spirit, the first thing Jesus 
would not, would not have said 

137
00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:05,400
to him about him was he's going 
to remind you lies. 

138
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:13,600
He got to remind you because 
you're forgetting Hallelujah. 

139
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,920
Then he says he's going to teach
you all things. 

140
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,680
Then he said concerning, He's 
going to guide you into all 

141
00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:25,040
truth. 
Then we get over to the gifts 

142
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,600
where He will disclose things to
come. 

143
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,680
So if you're not having a 
relationship with the Holy 

144
00:09:32,680 --> 00:09:43,880
Spirit through remembrance, 
teaching, and truth, now many 

145
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,320
can fake that. 
And I've been around plenty of 

146
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:53,920
them because you understand, 
it's in the area of broadcasting

147
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,240
broadly. 
Well, you know, if you've got, 

148
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,960
you know, I just said some 
people here just don't have 

149
00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:04,920
peace, Well, that's probably 
somebody in the room right now, 

150
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,480
right? 
You know, I said somebody's 

151
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,800
going, you know, having some 
issues with their body. 

152
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,200
OK. 
I mean, that could happen any 

153
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,560
day of the week, depends on 
which day I wake up, which issue

154
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:21,240
I'm dealing with, right? 
Or what I ate the day before, 

155
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,880
right. 
So again, what it does, it tries

156
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:29,280
to put on the appearance that 
I'm hearing the Holy Ghost. 

157
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,760
All right, I like how Brother 
Hagin learned and I'm going to 

158
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,800
be ministering on how the 
anointing works, how to flow in 

159
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,960
it. 
He would say, well, I'm going to

160
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,600
put, I'm putting up my spiritual
antenna. 

161
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,960
And usually when he was putting 
up his spiritual antenna, it 

162
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,800
wasn't so much that he was 
trying to say vague things to 

163
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,720
get people's visual expressions.
Oh, Yellow, come on, help me out

164
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:56,400
here. 
I mean, if I say, you know, you 

165
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,960
know, maybe it's somewhere the, 
the from here in your body, 

166
00:10:59,960 --> 00:11:02,120
somewhere from here down to here
on the backside. 

167
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,160
And then somebody like, look. 
Ah, OK, now I'm because I can 

168
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,480
see someone's response, which 
lets me talk. 

169
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,160
But Brother Hagin didn't do 
those things. 

170
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,880
He would begin. 
Let's pray in the spirit because

171
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:23,440
he wanted to get it tuned here 
before he released it there. 

172
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,800
If he if he felt it was too 
vague, he would hold on. 

173
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,240
He was tracking. 
OK, somebody's got some issues 

174
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,520
with their body. 
OK, I got it. 

175
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:34,080
OK, where at? 
Now give me something more 

176
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,400
specific. 
Well, because again, the gifts 

177
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,600
and the word of knowledge and 
those gifts, which we're going 

178
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,360
to be teaching on those next 
month. 

179
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,600
And the one who's going to teach
it doesn't even know yet, but 

180
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:48,280
they'll find out today. 
So with that being said, I mean,

181
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,720
I've known this for a few days. 
I've just yet to reveal this to 

182
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,320
them. 
With that being said, you know 

183
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,600
those gifts get in operation for
specifics. 

184
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:03,560
Now, I have been a resistor 
sometimes of gifts because I'm 

185
00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:05,880
passionate about you loving the 
Word. 

186
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:11,560
I have God's story, meaning 
God's biblical account of His 

187
00:12:11,560 --> 00:12:16,960
walk in the earth where He was 
constantly trying to get the 

188
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:22,520
people to take Him at His Word. 
And when they did not, it shut 

189
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:27,880
down gifts. 
And I've told my staff for 

190
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,880
years. 
Well, when those, when that day 

191
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:36,920
comes that we're flowing and all
those types of Are you ready for

192
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:42,000
the season to maybe pack up and 
shut down Anchor Faith Church in

193
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,440
Saint Augustine? 
They, I'm different than most 

194
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,880
pastors. 
I'm just going to be honest with

195
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:53,160
you because I go beyond just 
natural talking points. 

196
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:59,680
I mean, I'm a seeker and we stop
where most want to stop because 

197
00:12:59,680 --> 00:13:04,520
they have their own ambitions. 
But I realize there is a by 

198
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,520
product of when the miraculous 
starts to happen in the church 

199
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:13,120
where the blind eyes are seeing 
the miraculous arms are growing 

200
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,920
out, the deaf ears are opening 
up and it's becoming where every

201
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,440
service, these things are 
happening that all of a sudden 

202
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,120
the climate changes from wanting
to hear the word to wanting to 

203
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,800
see the sign. 
And Jesus was like, I won't even

204
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,800
do a miracle in that city 
anymore. 

205
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,720
And I'm like, I'd really like to
hang out at Saint Augustine a 

206
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,080
little bit longer than get to 
the place of ministry. 

207
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,160
We're like, well, the ministry 
of Angravey Church in Saint 

208
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,680
Augustine is done because I 
cannot come here anymore as a 

209
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:45,680
pastor, an apostle and preach 
the word because all they want 

210
00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:50,520
is a son. 
How do we keep that from 

211
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,960
happening? 
You must be hungry for the Word.

212
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,360
And here's the thing, the more 
you know the Word, the less 

213
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,600
gifts have to be in operation. 
And the ones that are in 

214
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:07,480
operation are more for those who
are unlearned than it is for the

215
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,240
learned or the mature. 
Because God speaks to us 

216
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:19,360
primarily through the Spirit. 
Who had a gift of the Spirit 

217
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:28,280
that spoke to Jesus about it? 
A couple, a couple. 

218
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,600
And when was that? 
When he was just a child. 

219
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,400
They brought him to the temple 
and the first guy began to 

220
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:42,280
prophecy over Jesus. 
Do I think Jesus retained that 

221
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,520
information at 8 days old? 
Can't tell you that. 

222
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,960
Can I tell you that? 
I cannot tell you that at 8, You

223
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,800
know, because again, they were 
coming to circumcising and then 

224
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,200
all of a sudden he's being 
prophesied over. 

225
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,280
I said he's being prophesied 
over. 

226
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,240
Amen. 
Where did Jesus learn most of 

227
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,760
the prophetic utterances from 
concerning himself? 

228
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:14,680
Thank you. 
Then there was a lady same day, 

229
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:22,040
same age who spoke over him. 
Are you hearing me? 

230
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,440
My point is, is if you're living
life looking for someone to use 

231
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,800
the gifts to speak to you by the
spirit, that shows your 

232
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:35,000
immaturity. 
All right, shows your 

233
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,840
immaturity. 
So we want to grow in the word. 

234
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,920
That doesn't mean we cannot use 
the gifts. 

235
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:44,000
We are to earnestly desire the 
gifts honestly and and that's 

236
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,560
what the word says. 
So I have to make adjustments 

237
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,200
myself. 
I just have to say, as I 

238
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:53,320
earnestly desire the gift, I 
also more desire the 

239
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:58,280
understanding of the word, 
because there's more Scripture 

240
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,760
that talks about people rightly 
dividing the Word, seeking first

241
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,960
the Kingdom, having 
understanding of that Word, then

242
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,200
earnestly desiring spiritual 
gifts. 

243
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,840
But when they're necessary, we 
want them to be necessary. 

244
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,680
Amen, I said. 
Amen. 

245
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,960
In fact, I had someone who moves
through the gifts here at our 

246
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,600
church been extremely accurate 
about some words of wisdoms and 

247
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,720
gave me one concerning the move 
of miracles. 

248
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,080
But it would come through a very
specific occurrence of a move of

249
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,520
the gift. 
And now I have to wait to see if

250
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:47,480
they'll respond, because I 
really don't doubt the word. 

251
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:57,040
My point is, is everyone in this
room, no matter who you are, if 

252
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:03,960
you sense that you have 
something by the Spirit, then 

253
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,800
we're going to encourage you to 
respond. 

254
00:17:06,319 --> 00:17:07,720
But we do it decent and in 
order. 

255
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,760
You say, well, what if I have 
something, I'm back there. 

256
00:17:09,839 --> 00:17:12,000
Well, then you come down and 
talk to the usher, of which the 

257
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,240
usher will either let my wife 
know or myself know. 

258
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,319
At that point, we're going to 
determine based upon that 

259
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,240
encounter of whether God wants 
to release you or we take what 

260
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,880
you have and release it. 
Amen. 

261
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,319
Amen. 
OK. 

262
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,320
And know this, when you're 
learning to flow in the Spirit, 

263
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:36,000
you might not get it right. 
In fact, many hear the Spirit of

264
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,640
God for their personal change. 
But here's the thing that you 

265
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,680
usually fail in. 
They assume because I need it, 

266
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,800
someone else does. 
So they immediately say, well, 

267
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,760
if the Lord's speaking to me 
about this, I'm surely he's 

268
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,320
speaking to someone else. 
And it's so strong on me. 

269
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:56,680
Well, it's strong on you because
God is trying to convict you in 

270
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,320
order to correct something to be
able to get you to another level

271
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:06,160
because he may have been doing 
it subtle and now the 

272
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:11,440
environment has been you need to
get it right and it's 

273
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:16,240
reverbiating in your spirit. 
Who's so strong going to be? 

274
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,960
I can hardly Yep, you're right, 
You're right and it is for you. 

275
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,240
So don't be offended if I say 
that's for you. 

276
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,280
Don't be offended, but on the 
other side, don't equally, don't

277
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:38,680
be offended if I missed it. 
I mean, when you got everything 

278
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:45,120
going, everybody's trying to 
hear Hallelujah and sometimes 

279
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:47,920
people have missed it because 
they delayed too long. 

280
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,520
I've had many come to me and it 
was the last worship song we 

281
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,360
finished, but we've moved on, 
which means now that moment has 

282
00:18:56,360 --> 00:18:57,960
passed. 
They were right. 

283
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,600
I've even had others come and 
give me something. 

284
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,560
I'm like, that's not for today 
because I know what I'm doing 

285
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,680
next week. 
Bring that to me next week. 

286
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,320
That's next week. 
Are you hearing me? 

287
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,480
All right, so the Holy Spirit's 
really powerful Revelations 1/4 

288
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,920
through 7 says this John to the 
seven churches that were in 

289
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,120
Asia, grace to you and peace 
from him who is and who was and 

290
00:19:22,120 --> 00:19:24,040
who is to come. 
And from the seven spirits who 

291
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,560
are before his throne. 
And from Jesus Christ the 

292
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,720
faithful witness, the first born
of the dead, the ruler of the 

293
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,320
kings of the earth, to him who 
loves us and released us from 

294
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,360
our sins by His blood. 
And he made us to be a Kingdom 

295
00:19:34,360 --> 00:19:37,800
priest of his God and Father. 
To him be the glory and dominion

296
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:38,840
forever and ever. 
Amen. 

297
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,960
Notice there are 7 spheres 
before his throne. 

298
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,240
Revelations 5-6 says, And I saw 
between the throne with the four

299
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:49,280
living creatures, the elder and 
the elders, a lamb standing as 

300
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,640
if slain, having 7 horns and 
seven eyes, which are the seven 

301
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,360
spirits of the Lord sent out 
into all the earth. 

302
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,760
Now the seven spirits here, the 
seven spirits of God are not 7 

303
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,360
different spirits. 
It is one spirit called the Holy

304
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:04,880
Spirit. 
But the reason they use the word

305
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:09,240
7, especially in Revelations 
5-6, use 7 horns, 7 eyes. 

306
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:14,840
Horns represent governments, OK?
And the Kingdom is a government.

307
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,320
We are not in a religion. 
We are in a government called 

308
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,240
the Kingdom of God. 
The Bible is about a king, his 

309
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,120
Kingdom, and his royal 
offspring. 

310
00:20:23,120 --> 00:20:26,000
It's always been about that. 
It has never not been about 

311
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,680
that. 
But since the fall of man in 

312
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,880
Revelation chapter 3, and they 
preach from there only to 

313
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,280
Revelation chapter 20, they miss
the Kingdom of God because they 

314
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,560
only associate the Kingdom of 
God with heaven. 

315
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,200
Heaven is not the Kingdom of 
God. 

316
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,200
Heaven is a location. 
It is a place where God dwells. 

317
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,200
Earth is a location where we 
dwell and the Kingdom of God can

318
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,680
be in heaven and in the earth. 
He said, says, he said when you 

319
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,640
pray, pray this way, our Father,
who art in heaven, hallowed be 

320
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:56,840
your name, your Kingdom come, 
your will be done on as it is. 

321
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:03,840
So Kingdom cannot be heaven 
because heaven is heaven and 

322
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,200
earth is earth. 
But Kingdom can be in both, 

323
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:11,320
which is God's dominion, the 
King's dominion and authority in

324
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,360
both locations. 
Hallelujah. 

325
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,760
We see this naturally in our 
nation, in the world right now, 

326
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:24,200
every nation that has AUS 
embassy, the land that that 

327
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,960
embassy is on, although it, the 
soil is attached to another 

328
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,560
nation, the boundaries of 
another nation. 

329
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,080
But when you walk through the 
gate or the wall that surrounds 

330
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,320
that embassy, that dirt is 
considered US soil. 

331
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,080
Are you hearing me? 
And so that particular soil now,

332
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,840
although it's in Nicaragua or in
China or in, you know, 

333
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,520
Afghanistan or in whatever, 
doesn't matter. 

334
00:21:54,640 --> 00:22:00,600
That piece of dirt. 
The laws of the United States 

335
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,360
are what applies on that plot of
land. 

336
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,040
Well, guess what? 
We are ambassadors for Christ. 

337
00:22:10,120 --> 00:22:14,680
And this suit is dirt. 
Wherever this suit goes, the 

338
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:20,160
Kingdom goes, Amen. 
Wherever I am, the Kingdom is 

339
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,440
Hallelujah. 
And so the Kingdom functions and

340
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:27,640
flows through me, the government
of God flows through us and this

341
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,800
church the property. 
This is why the devil fights 

342
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:34,080
churches for land, because not 
only are we God's property, but 

343
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:38,320
this the the land we purchase is
God's property. 

344
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:43,120
In fact, when people walk onto 
2121 US One South, they walked 

345
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:48,640
into the Kingdom realm where 
heaven has access of influence. 

346
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,520
This is why many times people 
walk through our doors of the 

347
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,360
church and say something's 
different here. 

348
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,360
That's right. 
We've made a demand on another 

349
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:03,040
government, another influence, 
another culture that is alive 

350
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,440
and well in the earth today to 
those who choose to believe and 

351
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,280
live according to its design by 
their own free will. 

352
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,760
Amen. 
So 7 is government, 7 horns. 

353
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:19,000
That's government horns eyes are
knowledge inside that means he 

354
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,240
and seven in the Bible is 
considered the number of 

355
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:26,840
completion are perfect. 
So God is so he's saying this 

356
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,200
the seven spirits, which means 
it's the perfect spirit. 

357
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,040
It has the perfect government 
and the perfect knowledge or 

358
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:40,880
wisdom or insight. 
Perfect means God never gets the

359
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,040
case wrong. 
I'm going to say that again, God

360
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:50,600
never gets a case wrong. 
It's impossible. 

361
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,560
Now these both of these passive 
scriptures and Revelations 1:00 

362
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,720
and 5:00 and we knew there was 
another one, Revelations 3. 

363
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,560
I just choose not to read it. 
We did it in the first week come

364
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:05,320
from the prophet Isaiah when he 
prophesied concerning the Holy 

365
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,920
Spirit to come. 
And it says this in Isaiah 11 to

366
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,080
the Spirit of the Lord number 
one, that's the first one will 

367
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,400
rest on him, not come upon him 
and then leave like it did in 

368
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,000
the other dispensation. 
It's there. 

369
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,960
It will rest on him. 
And remember we said this 

370
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,240
according to Isaiah 9/6, that 
the government will what? 

371
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:27,640
Rest on His shoulders, which 
means the Holy Spirit is not 

372
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,040
coming on and off us, He's in 
US. 

373
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,280
And when He comes upon us and 
anoints us as kings of the king 

374
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,800
in the earth to represent His 
Kingdom, it is upon, It is 

375
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,240
rested on us. 
It's in the church. 

376
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,240
Now you have the Spirit of God 
with a measure, and you have the

377
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,280
Spirit of God with a measure, 
and you have the Spirit of God 

378
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,480
with a measure, and so do I. 
But collectively, as the church,

379
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,640
we have the full measure of the 
It's why you need me and I need 

380
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,960
you. 
This is why you can't take the 

381
00:24:59,960 --> 00:25:03,240
religious doctrine of Jesus 
Christ in the United States, 

382
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,960
which is I can come to church 
when I want to do what I want to

383
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,240
do. 
I can continue to be 

384
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,360
independent. 
The church is not a building. 

385
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,880
Church is the assembling of 
yourself together. 

386
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,000
It doesn't have to be in a 
building, but it is very it is a

387
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,360
lot more comfortable than being 
outside in the parking lot, 

388
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,960
right? 
I mean, can we take this outside

389
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,120
right now? 
And I preach I'll probably lose 

390
00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:32,280
my jacket at some juncture. 
Some of you going to want to 

391
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,080
take your shirts off. 
We're going to say please don't.

392
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,960
But the Spirit of the Lord's 
one, the second one, this is the

393
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:43,440
spirit of wisdom, the third 
understanding, the 4th, the 

394
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,080
spirit of counsel, the 5th, the 
spirit of strength, the 6th, the

395
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,000
spirit of knowledge, and the 
7th, 1 is the spirit of the fear

396
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,240
of the Lord. 
All these characteristics or 

397
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,520
attributes are contained within 
the Holy Spirit. 

398
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,360
And we've already taken the time
to talk about the Spirit of the 

399
00:25:59,360 --> 00:26:01,000
Lord, which is the government of
God. 

400
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,320
That's the spirit of government 
because Lord is not a religious 

401
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,520
word. 
Lord means supreme in authority,

402
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,480
supreme in authority and if you 
are to if you call on the name 

403
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,680
of the Lord to be saved, you're 
saying I am yielding to your 

404
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:24,040
throne, your way of doing it. 
You dictate my life. 

405
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:29,720
You're the one in supreme 
authority and I willfully submit

406
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,680
to it. 
Hallelujah. 

407
00:26:32,120 --> 00:26:36,640
But most people in our, you 
know, nation's culture 

408
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:41,280
concerning Jesus, love Savior, 
He saved me of all my sins, 

409
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,000
saved me from going to hell. 
I mean, this song we just sang 

410
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,000
today, we changed it because 
again, it originally said, you 

411
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,800
know, when hell still knows hell
is not the devil's. 

412
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,480
The devil doesn't hold own hell.
He doesn't own it. 

413
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:01,480
The Lord is the keeper of hell 
because the Lord is over the 

414
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:06,960
prison system of His Kingdom. 
There has to be a place by which

415
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,200
those who rebel and willfully 
choose to not make him Lord, he 

416
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:17,000
will assign. 
But the devil still knows that 

417
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,480
the work is finished. 
I said he still knows that Jesus

418
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,520
has conquered death, hell in the
grave and has the keys. 

419
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,360
Hallelujah, boy. 
He still knows it and he knows 

420
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:33,920
his time is short, shorter than 
ever before. 

421
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,160
That's why the world's gone mad,
because deceiving spirits are 

422
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,440
moving, seducing spirits are 
moving and deceiving and 

423
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,840
seducing all that they can 
outside and inside the church. 

424
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,360
Amen. 
So when it comes to the seven 

425
00:27:48,360 --> 00:27:54,200
spirits of the Lord in the 
expository Bible, this 

426
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,760
particular commentary, I want to
read this. 

427
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,200
I read 1 sentence when we first 
started, but I want to read this

428
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,040
again. 
So you get the full weight of 

429
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,720
this concept of the seven 
spirits of the Lord. 

430
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,880
The spirits of the Lord 
mentioned by Isaiah are 

431
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,760
prevailing. 
Put that scripture back up 11 

432
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,200
two. 
So when I read this, they 

433
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,240
conceal are prevailingly 
intellectual. 

434
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,920
Gregory of Tours expressly 
declared the Holy Spirit as the 

435
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,400
God of the intellect more than 
the heart. 

436
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:35,400
Now that doesn't mean he doesn't
know your spirit, but let me 

437
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:40,000
tell you what the Holy Spirit 
didn't come to do, give you a 

438
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,840
new one. 
Jesus did that. 

439
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:50,720
Jesus died and rose so that when
you make him Lord, He gave you 

440
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,760
the new Spirit. 
You have a new spirit in not in 

441
00:28:54,760 --> 00:29:03,400
the Holy Ghost in Christ because
God by His nature can reveal the

442
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,920
heart of man. 
The Holy Ghost assignment is to 

443
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,760
change your thinking and deal 
with your intellect. 

444
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:19,120
Now He will reveal your heart 
and when He reveals your heart, 

445
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,840
your heart area, meaning 
anything, which really once 

446
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,080
you're born of God, your spirits
made new, it is complete, 

447
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,800
perfect. 
It cannot be any more righteous 

448
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,600
than it is at that moment. 
So the Holy Spirit is only 

449
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,600
dealing with the junk in your 
brain. 

450
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,600
So He really is more of the 
spirit of intellect than of the 

451
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,920
heart. 
Are you hearing what I'm saying?

452
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,800
So he goes on to say all 
councils were opened by a Mass 

453
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:56,200
to the Holy Spirit and few who 
were examined with care. 

454
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,760
The windows of medieval churches
will have failed to be struck 

455
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:05,920
with a frequency with which the 
dove is seen descending upon the

456
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,320
heads of miraculously learned 
persons are presiding at 

457
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,520
discussions are hovering over 
groups of figures representing 

458
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:19,640
the sciences meaning when they 
did the churches in the medieval

459
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,440
times that the spirit of God was
hovering over those who were 

460
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:28,320
intelligent or was able to tap 
into what we call science. 

461
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,880
You understand for them to 
understand the stars and and and

462
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,480
biology. 
Those things were opened up by 

463
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:39,560
who made the plants, who spoke 
them into existence. 

464
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,400
Which means God knows everything
about photosynthesis, He knows 

465
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,880
everything about how biology 
works, and he by his Spirit 

466
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:51,080
opens the intellect of man to 
discover things they never would

467
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:57,120
have known. 
So again, we get resistant when 

468
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,800
sometimes we need to say what's 
the science behind this Holy 

469
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,800
Ghost? 
Because the Church has 

470
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,560
disconnected itself from 
intellect. 

471
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,040
The church just wants to know 
where they're going to go when 

472
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,320
they die. 
I mean, this is the difference 

473
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:20,040
at Washington, at Washington, 
our private school, we are here 

474
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:24,720
to by the Holy Ghost to get them
intellectually in a place by the

475
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,280
Spirit that they are 10 times 
better than anybody else. 

476
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,640
So I do not apologize when your 
child comes home and a brain 

477
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,520
hurts. 
So when they come and complain 

478
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:42,080
about the work, say son, 
daughter, it's so you will be 10

479
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:49,240
times more intellectual than 
anyone else in the world, right?

480
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:54,280
He goes on and says to the 
medieval church, because this 

481
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,240
was, you know, information back 
then. 

482
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:02,640
The Holy Spirit was the author 
of the intellect more especially

483
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,920
listen to this of the governing 
and political intellect. 

484
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,520
And there can be little doubt 
after a study of the various 

485
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,120
variations of this doctrine, 
that the 1st 5 verses of the 

486
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:20,480
11th of Isaiah formed upon it 
the classical text of appeal. 

487
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,600
Meaning that if you study those 
five, you understand the Holy 

488
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:28,680
Spirit was there for governing 
and political issues. 

489
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,560
Meaning the legislation to 
govern, govern man. 

490
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,760
But we've made the church 
religious. 

491
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:46,800
We made Jesus a religious idol. 
We only want to see His Savior 

492
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,560
attributes and do not want to 
talk about His kingship. 

493
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,680
It goes on to say that the that 
to Christians we have been 

494
00:32:56,680 --> 00:33:01,480
accustomed by the word, the use 
of the word comforter, to 

495
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,760
associate the Spirit only with 
gentle, consoling influences of 

496
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,400
heaven. 
It may seem strange to find his 

497
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:12,560
energy identified with the stern
rigor of the magistrate. 

498
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,480
We want Him to comfort us when 
we're in trouble. 

499
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,520
In fact, someone texted me 
before I came up on the platform

500
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,240
and said this. 
Some people only seek God during

501
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,000
calamity. 
God wants us to seek Him during 

502
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,360
all times of life. 
And that's true. 

503
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,840
Why? 
Because we want the comforter 

504
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,960
instead of Lord. 
Give me wisdom and intellect. 

505
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,040
Give me knowledge and insight. 
Give me things even in the 

506
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:42,320
natural so that I can I can 
confound the wise and their 

507
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,040
teaching and their dark sayings 
that come from other spirits. 

508
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,360
Let us rise above all. 
This is why Daniel rose. 

509
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:53,880
This is why Mordecai rose. 
This is why Joseph rose to 

510
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:58,520
prominence, because they didn't 
deny the intellect. 

511
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,040
I mean, again, some of you in 
business you are not at a 

512
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:07,840
disadvantage if you'll quit 
looking at the Holy Ghost only 

513
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,600
as a comforter, but begin 
seeking Him through the 

514
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:17,440
intellectual side. 
But it is pract. 

515
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:22,040
But in its practical, 
intelligent, and reasonable use,

516
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,840
this doctrine is greatly to be 
preferred, on grounds both of 

517
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:30,000
Scripture and common sense, to 
the two comparatively modern 

518
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,000
corruptions of it, one of which 
emphasizes the Spirit's 

519
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,600
influence in the exclusive 
operation of the grace of 

520
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,639
orders, and the other, driving 
to a opposite extreme, 

521
00:34:41,159 --> 00:34:44,080
dissipates it into the vaguest 
religiosity. 

522
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,280
Oh, well, I don't know what the 
Lord wants to do. 

523
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,080
His ways are higher than our 
ways. 

524
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,760
His thoughts are higher than our
thoughts. 

525
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,719
You know how many believers say 
that they get to an end? 

526
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,280
Well, you know, they just want 
Lord's will to be done because, 

527
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,120
you know, we don't know. 
Well, the Bible says you have 

528
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,720
the mind of Christ. 
New Testament. 

529
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:08,800
But religious people use this 
all the time. 

530
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:11,600
But you know, I know where I'm 
going to go when I die. 

531
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,640
And when you start talking to 
them about the Holy Ghost, do 

532
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:18,480
more, they get offended. 
I mean, I've never seen such 

533
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:25,760
people want to stay dumb. 
It's amazing to me how quick a 

534
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:29,080
person lost dead in their 
trespasses of sin and know that 

535
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,880
they're going to be eternally 
judged, full of guilt and shame,

536
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:37,560
see the love of God on the cross
and what he paid to change their

537
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,120
lives and to redeem them from 
the wrongdoing and will give 

538
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:45,240
them life and life eternal. 
Except that and then immediately

539
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,760
tell the Holy Ghost. 
Don't talk to me, don't tell me 

540
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,640
anything else. 
All I care about is I know where

541
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,040
I'm going to go and I die and 
any other changing on my mind is

542
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:58,200
irrelevant. 
I've never seen a new creature 

543
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:04,160
become so passionate to stay 
ignorant, and that's a miserable

544
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,120
thing. 
I said That's a miserable thing.

545
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,280
But it says one of the 
curiosities of Christian 

546
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,960
theology, that a divine 
influence asserted by Scripture 

547
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,520
and believed by the early Church
is manifest to manifest itself 

548
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,640
in the successful conduct of 
civil offices. 

549
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,120
And the fullness of intellectual
learning should in these latter 

550
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:33,040
days be so often set in a sort 
of supernatural opposition to 

551
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,840
practical wisdom and the result 
of science. 

552
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,000
In essence, the minute you start
talking about having your mind 

553
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:46,440
changed and renewed and you can 
become wise, smart, intelligent,

554
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:56,000
far above even academically, a 
resistance happens because we've

555
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:02,120
accepted Savior theology and not
Kingdom Lordship. 

556
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,440
Are you hearing me? 
OK, so with that being said, 

557
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,840
let's look at the last three 
spirits of the Lord here. 

558
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,760
It's the spirit of counsel, the 
spirit of strength, and the 

559
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,120
spirit of knowledge. 
If you weren't here for any of 

560
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,600
the other ones, you can go 
online. 

561
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,240
We have those available for you.
They are very powerful and you 

562
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:20,920
should go back. 
In fact, everyone of you should 

563
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,440
read it our to be a lot larger 
than the numbers we have. 

564
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,840
Listen, YouTube's going to 
suppress us anyway because 

565
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,640
they're going to try to keep us 
out of their algorithm so that 

566
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,240
we do not get traffic. 
I mean we ought to at least be 

567
00:37:33,240 --> 00:37:35,360
going back and listening. 
You know some of y'all are 

568
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,960
listening to other ministers and
don't even re listen to your own

569
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,840
pastor who's feeding you. 
You'll give me an Amen in 

570
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,360
service, but then you won't go 
back. 

571
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,600
Go through it again and listen 
to it again so you can actually 

572
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,640
get it in your spirit and begin 
to walk in it. 

573
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,880
You'll go listen to somebody 
else. 

574
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:55,040
So you know, we should. 
Be the most trafficked viewing 

575
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:59,880
that you have because God 
assigns you here and the things 

576
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:04,000
I minister are to grow you in 
the things of God and you need 

577
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:12,120
to go more than three seconds. 
Hallelujah, Amen. 

578
00:38:12,240 --> 00:38:14,560
We release an Anchor Faith 
Church worship moment, which 

579
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,800
we're fixing to release one for 
our new song Holy. 

580
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,640
Those things will hit the 
thousands easy. 

581
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,760
Oh, don't. 
Just just shout Amen. 

582
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,560
Just shout it again. 
I mean, we'll listen to a song 

583
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,880
in repetition, which is why we 
have to make sure we sing them 

584
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,840
right. 
But we will not wear out. 

585
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:44,200
A sermon. 
We need to be wearing out some. 

586
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:48,040
Sermons and we need to wear out 
the sermon that's feeding you in

587
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,880
your house. 
Hallelujah. 

588
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,080
Then if it's changed you so 
much, why do I not see you 

589
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,360
posting it on social media and 
trying to get it influenced to 

590
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:01,680
your friends? 
Now I don't follow all of you. 

591
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:05,880
Because I don't have time to go 
check all your stuff, right? 

592
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,360
To go make sure that I'm 
following everybody. 

593
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:13,960
No, I'm that's not my purpose. 
However, if you are following 

594
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,360
Anchor Bay Church and a real 
comes out, it should be 

595
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,640
something you've sent. 
I don't understand how. 

596
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,960
People can call something theirs
and then are resistant to it at 

597
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,600
the same time. 
Oh, that's such a good word, 

598
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,040
Pastor. 
Well, then tell somebody about 

599
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,880
it. 
Send it out. 

600
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,680
Brag on it, tell them how much 
they need to hear it. 

601
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,560
Because you're not promoting me,
you're promoting the word being 

602
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,720
preached. 
Hallelujah. 

603
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,920
I don't need promotion. 
I was promoted the day I said, 

604
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,800
yes, Lord, I'll serve you. 
I mean, the King knows my name. 

605
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,360
He knows my name. 
I mean, I don't care who knows 

606
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,600
me. 
God knows me. 

607
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,160
I'm known. 
I am known by Jesus. 

608
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,760
I'm so glad I'm known by Jesus. 
Counsel. 

609
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,680
In Proverbs 15 it says this. 
A wise man will hear an increase

610
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:13,160
in learning, and a man of 
understanding will acquire wise 

611
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,320
counsel. 
OK, I do not have time. 

612
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,680
Listen, if you just take a word 
study, meaning you go to one of 

613
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,920
these Bible apps that you have 
or you get a paper book Bible 

614
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:24,280
that has a concordance that's 
great. 

615
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,840
And you look up this one word, 
there's going to be tons of 

616
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,000
scripture that's going to have 
this word counsel. 

617
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,640
Or it could be some translations
use other terms, but we're 

618
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:35,600
staying with counsel through the
new American Standard. 

619
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,600
And if you look at that, there's
tons, there's plenty of 

620
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,320
scripture that I will not be 
able to get into that. 

621
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,720
Those who resist counsel, what 
devastating effects take place? 

622
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,440
OK. 
We're just trying to stay 

623
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,640
focused on the things that are 
positive. 

624
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,560
And it says this in the 
definition of this word. 

625
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,840
Counsel means the gift of 
forming right conclusions. 

626
00:40:58,240 --> 00:41:06,960
In essence, the spirit of 
counsel means that the Spirit or

627
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:10,320
the Holy Spirit is the one 
qualified to give advice. 

628
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:21,280
Now let me help you. 
Jesus said I do not say anything

629
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:25,120
on my own. 
I only say what I. 

630
00:41:25,720 --> 00:41:27,960
And he was baptized by the Holy 
Spirit. 

631
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,480
He had the Spirit upon him 
without measure rested on him, 

632
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,040
which means everything he heard 
by the Spirit of counsel 

633
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:42,680
qualified him to give the 
correct advice and. 

634
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:46,160
We have many. 
Things where they would bring a 

635
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:50,760
woman caught in adultery. 
But he had. 

636
00:41:51,240 --> 00:41:55,400
The counsel. 
Right, he can get in A room. 

637
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,760
And say your sins are forgiven 
and then talk to the negative 

638
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,440
crowd and give the right 
counsel. 

639
00:42:01,720 --> 00:42:04,720
Then he can also be in a 
situation where they will attack

640
00:42:04,720 --> 00:42:07,600
him about his authority and 
he'll have the right counsel by 

641
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,680
asking another question that 
they that he knows they won't 

642
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,320
answer. 
And when they don't answer, he 

643
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,320
said, well, if you won't answer 
mine, I'm not going to answer 

644
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,600
yours because now I. 
Have to prove to you. 

645
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:23,480
That I'm wiser than you. 
Amen. 

646
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,280
Which tells me if you're giving 
advice. 

647
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:31,800
Did it originate from the? 
Holy Ghost, because some of you 

648
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:38,480
your lips flap way too fast. 
We are in a society. 

649
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:44,680
That we love to offer our 
opinion on the matter and have 

650
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:49,080
multiple platforms to do so. 
We want to make sure everyone 

651
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:55,880
knows our thoughts on the 
subject, yet we have not even 

652
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,040
consulted with the Holy Ghost 
about it. 

653
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,280
And the church honestly 
sometimes is the worst because 

654
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:08,560
you know you're limited in your 
information, yet you will talk 

655
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:13,320
as if you were in the room with 
everyone present. 

656
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:22,800
Which means anything you're 
saying. 

657
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,080
About a situation, you are not 
in the room with everyone 

658
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,760
present. 
You're not actually qualified to

659
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:33,680
talk about it. 
And I've been in that situation.

660
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,880
Someone come and talk to me 
about something going on with 

661
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,280
someone. 
You know what my counsel is? 

662
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:43,000
Let's talk about you because I 
can give you wise counsel on how

663
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,520
you deal with you. 
Because what you and I and I 

664
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:50,000
will usually say it this way. 
If everything you are telling me

665
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:55,960
if the other person was here is 
correct, this is your response. 

666
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,240
Because the word says it's not 
my opinion in the matter. 

667
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:07,480
But I preface if. 
And I'll tell them because you 

668
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:13,640
know, they're not here. 
I'm not talking to. 

669
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:17,720
Them about what you're saying 
there is their side. 

670
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,800
But don't come to me and. 
Expect me to jump on 100% of 

671
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:29,880
your side. 
It's never going to happen now 

672
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:31,000
I. 
Can get on 100. 

673
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,240
Percent. 
I'm always on 100% side. 

674
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,200
It's called righteousness. 
It's the word. 

675
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,800
That's where I'm at always, 
period. 

676
00:44:39,240 --> 00:44:41,080
That's where I stay. 
Amen. 

677
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:44,040
And anyone else says other, 
they're a liar. 

678
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,320
All right. 
Psalms, 3311. 

679
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:54,920
The counsel of the Lord stands 
forever the plans of his heart 

680
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:59,960
from generation to generation. 
He is the only one. 

681
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,800
Who actually has the right 
intuition? 

682
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,560
And when he's this, he is the 
counselor. 

683
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:11,600
I mean, we say counsel. 
We're talking like from a a 

684
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,800
legal term. 
This is what a lawyer is in our 

685
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,200
modern vernacular. 
What you need to go and list a 

686
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:21,600
counselor or a lawyer. 
You need someone who is well 

687
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:27,360
acquainted with the law. 
There's a particular. 

688
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:32,000
Situation concerning them all 
that I needed to seek legal 

689
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:36,600
counsel and so they went to look
up what could be done. 

690
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,360
And so they say in this case, 
Pastor Earl, you would actually 

691
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:44,040
need to sue them or take them to
court. 

692
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:50,240
In essence, you're saying court.
We need you to render a decision

693
00:45:50,240 --> 00:45:54,600
on this matter. 
But based upon case. 

694
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,120
Law. 
I cannot tell you today that 

695
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,000
they will emphatically rule in 
your favor. 

696
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:07,720
I can argue this case for you, 
but I could equally argue it for

697
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:13,880
them. 
So I knew going in it's a 5050 

698
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:18,040
shot. 
So for me, guess what, I do take

699
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,480
a step back in the spirit and 
say, do you want me to pursue 

700
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,480
this? 
Because if you know the judgment

701
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,320
the judge will render and it's 
for me, then I'll go forward. 

702
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,600
Now he's not answered me. 
On that. 

703
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:37,800
So you know what I'm doing now? 
Nothing I don't have to pursue. 

704
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:46,120
But the Lord, He knows. 
His word, He knows. 

705
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:47,360
It inside. 
And out. 

706
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:52,200
And he's the one who renders 
right judgment. 

707
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,880
Now why is this? 
Important because the Bible says

708
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,240
that. 
Do you not know that you will 

709
00:46:57,240 --> 00:47:01,000
judge angels? 
Welcome. 

710
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:05,800
Just so you know. 
Welcome to the millennial reign.

711
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:13,920
Attorneys at large. 
This is who we are. 

712
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,920
We will judge angels. 
But here's the thing. 

713
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,600
Because I do not have on my 
office wall. 

714
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,760
A piece of paper. 
That has proves that I have 

715
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:32,680
passed the Florida Bar 
Association and I can legally 

716
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,800
function as a natural lawyer. 
When I render judgments from the

717
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:41,080
word, believers do not take it 
as final. 

718
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,920
Though in some cases I'm like I.
Don't even want to meet with you

719
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:57,120
anymore because you don't treat 
us as the judge to render the 

720
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,680
case final according to the 
word. 

721
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:04,240
But this is the spirit we 
actually. 

722
00:48:04,240 --> 00:48:06,720
Have this the whole There's a 
whole scripture where God says 

723
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:09,240
St. 
Is taking St. 

724
00:48:09,240 --> 00:48:13,120
To court shouldn't even be yet 
what? 

725
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,560
Happens when. 
Saints get underneath the 

726
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,600
leadership of the church that 
that is their task. 

727
00:48:21,240 --> 00:48:25,400
Come on, help me. 
Moses was tasked to render what 

728
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:29,560
judgment? 
Then he gave it to 70 because 

729
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:34,160
his father-in-law says, son, 
your office is full. 

730
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:38,120
You have way too many clients. 
I mean, you going to be wore out

731
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,800
here, son, because what would 
Moses do? 

732
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,880
I mean, I wish that I could walk
out and the glory of God was 

733
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,480
shine on my face. 
So you would take my counsel, 

734
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:51,520
but it's on the inside of me. 
It's not glowing, but it's there

735
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:53,640
nonetheless. 
And if you were actually 

736
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,960
listening to the spirit of 
counsel in your spirit, then you

737
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,920
would know what I said was 
according to God, and you would 

738
00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:03,200
change your thinking and crucify
your emotions and flesh. 

739
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,920
Because this is not about me. 
Being right, you being right, 

740
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:15,880
the Lord is right, He's right, 
and that's what we're seeking 

741
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:18,240
so. 
Moses. 

742
00:49:18,240 --> 00:49:21,720
Gives it to 70 and he says you 
can take care of these cases, 

743
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,920
but anything further comes to 
the Supreme Court. 

744
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:31,040
Hallelujah. 
And here we have dispute settled

745
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,400
in the New Covenant. 
We have dispute settled. 

746
00:49:33,720 --> 00:49:38,880
They had this issue with feeding
Hellenistic Jews widows. 

747
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,760
And what did they Did they go to
the court of law? 

748
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,760
No, they went to the apostles, 
and they rendered a final 

749
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:50,880
judgment. 
Because we have a spirit of. 

750
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,120
But what do we want To be 
comforted? 

751
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,520
We don't want the. 
Rigors of the Magistrate. 

752
00:50:05,220 --> 00:50:06,500
I can't tell you how many times 
my. 

753
00:50:06,500 --> 00:50:08,020
Staff's come to me about 
situation. 

754
00:50:08,020 --> 00:50:11,940
I said, well, I don't care. 
I don't know enough about it. 

755
00:50:12,700 --> 00:50:15,380
I just don't talk to me. 
You're getting too emotionally 

756
00:50:15,380 --> 00:50:17,340
attached to this. 
Shut it down. 

757
00:50:17,900 --> 00:50:24,780
I've told them more than one 
time, I understand, but I'm not 

758
00:50:24,780 --> 00:50:28,100
moved by anything. 
But I'll hear the Lord, and then

759
00:50:28,100 --> 00:50:31,640
I'll move. 
Because I need. 

760
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:36,440
Real counsel I need the 
advocate. 

761
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:38,760
Are you hearing? 
Me. 

762
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,680
All right, let me. 
Drive on Proverbs 1921 says this

763
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,040
many plans are in the man's 
heart, but the counsel of the 

764
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:50,480
Lord will will stand the counsel
of the Lord will stand the 

765
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:54,800
counsel of the Lord will stand 
and this what this tells me with

766
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:56,720
this next verse look go ahead 
and let's look at Ephesians 

767
00:50:56,720 --> 00:51:01,240
chapter one verse 11. 
It says also we have obtained an

768
00:51:01,240 --> 00:51:04,280
inheritance, having been 
predestined according to his 

769
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:10,160
purpose, who works all things 
after the counsel of his will. 

770
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,880
That tells me that. 
Everyone in this room. 

771
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:18,240
Anyone listening online? 
When the true. 

772
00:51:18,240 --> 00:51:23,960
Holy Spirit, counsel comes on 
your situation, you know. 

773
00:51:27,240 --> 00:51:31,440
That it was thus saith the Lord.
And that doesn't mean you 

774
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:41,040
follow, but you know, and in the
words of my wife on Wednesday 

775
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:46,440
night, the struggle's real. 
There's a real struggle with 

776
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,320
your. 
Emotions because again, most of 

777
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:53,080
us come to Council. 
Because there's a way that 

778
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:54,120
seems. 
Right to you. 

779
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,520
Because a lot of times we are. 
Judging situations with 

780
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:06,280
inaccurate information or 
steeped in personal emotions. 

781
00:52:06,720 --> 00:52:09,160
And the worst is selfish 
ambition. 

782
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,720
And it exists because Paul 
talked about them. 

783
00:52:12,720 --> 00:52:14,840
I can only send you Timothy. 
The rest of these man, they seek

784
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:18,040
their own interest. 
And the person who seeks their 

785
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,480
own interest will not receive 
counsel from God because they 

786
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:25,840
only want one Counsel what? 
They want their interest, not 

787
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,320
God's, and they will not hear 
it. 

788
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:32,080
They will not hear it and they 
will cuss God and his 

789
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:38,360
messengers. 
I mean like literally cuss and 

790
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:45,680
yet stand in the service and 
praise Hallelujah. 

791
00:52:47,240 --> 00:52:49,120
So this, the Holy Spirit's a big
deal. 

792
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,360
That's why I love that the Lord 
spoke to me about you're going 

793
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,800
to deal with the seven spirits 
this year because again, we've 

794
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,360
come to a customer, we're too 
comfortable with the comforter 

795
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,520
when the Holy Ghost has way more
assigned to him. 

796
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,960
In fact, his first assignment is
to. 

797
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,840
Retain your thinking. 
Get your intellect to think like

798
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:15,720
a king and function like God to 
get sound judgement, because his

799
00:53:15,720 --> 00:53:17,920
counsel stands forever. 
And again, I don't have time to 

800
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,280
go through the negatives of 
those who resist it. 

801
00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:25,600
Because there's plenty in. 
Scripture that those that are 

802
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:29,240
undisciplined or do not like the
discipline of the Lord will will

803
00:53:29,240 --> 00:53:35,320
refute or or resist his counsel,
which tells us they know what 

804
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:40,960
he's saying, but they will not 
yield because it says they don't

805
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,200
want the discipline of the they 
they being they are being 

806
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,560
corrected. 
They're being corrected. 

807
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:50,280
And again, it's not a negative, 
it's God saying I love you so 

808
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,600
much that that thinking is not 
of God. 

809
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:54,440
It's not my thinking. 
It's not how I live. 

810
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,960
It's not how life produces it. 
It's not the way we flow and 

811
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,160
move and function. 
It's not how the Kingdom is. 

812
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:01,440
You're going to be tainted. 
In essence, what did God say 

813
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:04,840
concerning people who received 
bribes as judges? 

814
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:11,120
It clouded their judgment. 
It clouded their judgment. 

815
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,240
And as a result of clouded 
judgment, they would render 

816
00:54:14,240 --> 00:54:18,680
final says with personal 
pursuits. 

817
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:23,160
And let me tell you, the Lord 
records those cases. 

818
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:25,080
He's recording every case. 
Be honest with you. 

819
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:29,080
He's recording them all because 
every case is going to come 

820
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:33,280
before the Supreme Court. 
Every case. 

821
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,960
What do you think the FEMA seat 
is? 

822
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:47,760
You're going before the bar. 
It's not about whether you go to

823
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:50,760
heaven or not, it's about what 
were the decisions you were 

824
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:53,440
making on my behalf in the 
earth. 

825
00:54:58,120 --> 00:54:59,600
The spirit of counsel is real 
deal. 

826
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,520
Amen. 
And everyone of us have access 

827
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:08,560
and all of us can know and he 
does talk to us. 

828
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:11,440
This is really. 
Not a God talking. 

829
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:13,280
Problem. 
It's a US listening problem. 

830
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:20,600
That's why I said be quick to 
slow to. 

831
00:55:21,720 --> 00:55:24,040
He did that one first. 
Why? 

832
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:28,480
Because your mouth is releasing 
what you know, not what he 

833
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,280
knows. 
Your mouth is you trying to 

834
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,840
convince God to do it your way 
and not His way, and He will not

835
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:38,880
do it your way. 
He'll let you do it your way. 

836
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:44,440
But then you'll get your result,
and your right is death, his 

837
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:48,920
right is life. 
The next one is the spirit of. 

838
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:50,400
Strength. 
One translation calls it the 

839
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:55,040
Spirit of Might, Psalm 3739. 
But the the salvation of the 

840
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:59,120
righteous is from the Lord. 
He is their strength in the time

841
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:00,560
of trouble. 
Man is he your strength? 

842
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,680
Aren't you glad for strength? 
Strength or might by definition 

843
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,880
means this, the ability to carry
out counsel with energy. 

844
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,800
That's pretty impressive that we
need to have that thought before

845
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,800
I move to the next. 
Because that means the minute 

846
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:16,720
you hear God's counsel on it, 
you will be strengthened to 

847
00:56:16,720 --> 00:56:20,960
stand in it and nothing will be 
able to stop His counsel. 

848
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,440
You'll have the strength to 
pursue. 

849
00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:28,040
I love what Stacey said today 
when she had that unction by the

850
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:31,240
Spirit of God got talking to her
this week concerning what we 

851
00:56:31,240 --> 00:56:34,280
were going to be singing and 
that she says, listen, I get it.

852
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,400
Sometimes I even struggle. 
Meaning I have a thought 

853
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:42,120
sometimes, am I really as good I
can take on my mistakes more 

854
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:45,440
than what God says about me and 
that's reality. 

855
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:49,200
But what does she conclude I'll 
get rid of that thought because 

856
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:51,400
I'm going to take the counsel of
God. 

857
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,840
The Spirit of counsel has told 
me I am the righteousness of 

858
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:55,480
God. 
I didn't cry. 

859
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,640
I am fearfully and wonderfully 
made. 

860
00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:01,200
I am destined by God. 
I'm a child of the king. 

861
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,840
And she stands on that. 
It gives her the energy and the 

862
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:07,000
strength to stay in that 
position. 

863
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:12,080
Yeah, that's what that means. 
You know, Pastor Marcy's been 

864
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:15,040
blessing the socks off of you on
Wednesday night, letting you 

865
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:19,560
know the things that we stood in
in faith because you know you. 

866
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:21,640
Come to this. 
Conclusion at this point where 

867
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,640
we're at, where the ministry is 
and the blessings that God has 

868
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:28,800
done on us in our lives because 
of our faithfulness to his word 

869
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,800
and you can conclude that we 
it's just been a walk in a park 

870
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,400
for us. 
But but it's not been a walk in 

871
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:37,400
the park. 
It has been a walk in the park 

872
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,880
after I knew what he said 
because once I knew what he 

873
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,080
said, then I had the strength to
go through. 

874
00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:47,680
I could come to this property 
for five straight years and say 

875
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:51,280
thank you Lord for 2121 US One 
South and not be moved. 

876
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:54,800
I have the strength to carry out
the command. 

877
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:58,840
This place is yours. 
I had the strength that when. 

878
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:02,600
The first house we ever bought 
over office Segovia and the Lord

879
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:04,800
told my wife, this is it. 
I agreed. 

880
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,880
We got an agreement and we went 
to buy the house and people were

881
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,520
denying us a mortgage because I 
hadn't been here that long, 

882
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,040
although my field of work had 
been for years. 

883
00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,800
You know, I understand the banks
don't like pastors anyway 

884
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:18,680
because the world doesn't like 
pastors anyway. 

885
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:22,040
With that being said, we would 
get letters saying or in 

886
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:26,080
ministries, you know, here you 
go, you're denied, you're 

887
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,840
denied, you're denied, right. 
So my statement of faith was 

888
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:32,800
tearing a Bush out that belonged
to another man at the time 

889
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:35,240
because I was renting this 
house, but I was in faith saying

890
00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:38,960
I've heard from the Lord, I have
gotten counsel we are going to 

891
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:43,400
have this house and by faith I'm
ripping this thing out now. 

892
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:48,640
And I did. 
And it's still not there today 

893
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:55,280
because the roots were gone. 
I mean, I snatched it out and. 

894
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:58,600
Threw it. 
Right now I. 

895
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:01,320
Wasn't throwing it at my wife, I
was. 

896
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:02,480
Throwing it at the devil. 
Letting. 

897
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:06,200
Him know you're a liar. 
All your words mean nothing to 

898
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,680
me. 
I've had the counsel of God and 

899
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:11,920
his counsel stands. 
And we bought the house, lived 

900
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:16,200
there for 13 years. 
Right and the. 

901
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:19,440
Person who helped me get the 
loan later on, I gave that 

902
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,280
particular lead or that person's
name to another person, said 

903
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:25,360
man, this person was the easiest
person to work with. 

904
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,080
You know that they said that 
their, you know, you know, 

905
00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,600
father was, you know, in 
ministry too. 

906
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:34,440
And, and man, that was so easy. 
I mean, I had hardly any work to

907
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:36,520
do. 
And anytime I got a denial and 

908
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,280
went, they said, don't worry 
about it, we've got this, you 

909
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,400
will have it. 
And when I sent it to this other

910
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:42,280
person, they called them up, 
asked for them by name. 

911
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,800
They said nobody at that by that
name has ever worked here. 

912
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:49,960
So the Lord was involved in my. 
Process. 

913
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,920
Hallelujah. 
I said, are you hear what I'm 

914
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:57,200
saying? 
Glory to God. 

915
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:01,640
So it gives us the ability to 
carry out his word. 

916
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,520
You get strengthened. 
This is why we, in the words of 

917
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:09,680
Pastor Hagen, I will not, I 
cannot be defeated and I will 

918
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:12,680
not quit because I have the I 
have the final judgment on this 

919
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,480
thing. 
The spirit of counsel has spoken

920
01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:17,040
to me. 
It also means the strength of 

921
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:21,440
heart and purpose which enables 
a man to meet difficulties, to 

922
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:25,320
encounter danger, to be bold, 
open and fearless in the 

923
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:30,960
discharge of His duties. 
Jesus was all that He did not 

924
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,160
question who He was. 
He knew who He was. 

925
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:36,120
The only time He questioned was 
going to the cross in the 

926
01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:37,960
garden. 
And again, I've already let you 

927
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:40,640
know the only reason He 
questioned that is not because 

928
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:45,800
He was not willing, is that He 
wanted to know, is there a ram 

929
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,680
in the thicket? 
Because you wanted Abraham to 

930
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:52,840
kill his promised child. 
And when he got up there with 

931
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:55,440
all intentions to do it, and you
knew he was going to do it, you 

932
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:57,960
stopped the action and you had 
another way. 

933
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,600
And Abraham did not know there 
was another way. 

934
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:05,160
So I'm asking you, Isaac did not
know there was another way. 

935
01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:08,920
Is there another way? 
And the Lord said, son, there's 

936
01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:17,600
not another way. 
So Abraham, trying to be like 

937
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:21,200
the father, believed God must be
able to raise the dead. 

938
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:25,120
God knows I'm able to raise the 
dead, Son. 

939
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:27,560
I've told you in three days I'll
come get you. 

940
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:31,240
Hallelujah. 
And did he get him? 

941
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,480
I said, did he get him praise? 
The Lord. 

942
01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:38,680
All right, Psalms. 28 seven, 
says the Lord is my strength and

943
01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:42,800
my shield my heart. 
Trust in Him, and I am helped. 

944
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:48,160
Therefore my heart exalts, and 
with my song I shall thank Him. 

945
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:52,480
Now again, the strength is not 
so that you can go through 

946
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:56,760
difficulty alone, though you can
experience difficulty. 

947
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,240
Because when God renders final 
judgment, make no mistake about 

948
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,200
it, the enemy will attack that 
judgment, that counsel. 

949
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:08,480
Moses went to the king Pharaoh 
himself and said God has 

950
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,920
rendered counsel. 
Let my people go. 

951
01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:18,240
And the very next response. 
After he sent him off says let's

952
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:22,560
do an action that will work will
cause all the people that Moses 

953
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:26,800
has gone to and told this that 
his words are actually a lie and

954
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:29,440
it can't come to pass and made 
their lives more difficult. 

955
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:35,200
And when everyone then concluded
that, Moses, you're a jerk and 

956
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,680
we hate that you came and now 
it's worse, you should pack your

957
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,760
bags and go back across the 
river and leave us. 

958
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:46,320
He had the strength, the spirit 
of strength, the spirit of might

959
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:51,120
to finish the course, and he 
brought them out of Egypt. 

960
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:55,360
Say Amen. 
Psalms 147 five Great is our 

961
01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:59,120
Lord, and abundant in strength. 
His understanding is infinite. 

962
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,760
This is why it's perplexing to 
me that a believer quits. 

963
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:07,320
That a believer quit church. 
Quit reading the Bible. 

964
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:11,720
Quit praying in the Spirit. 
It blows my mind. 

965
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:14,960
Because they have the Holy 
Spirit, the Spirit of strength. 

966
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,760
You understand the Spirit of God
will strengthen you to get up 

967
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,440
out of your bed and get you in 
church. 

968
01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,960
He will bring His counsel of not
forsaking the assembling of 

969
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,880
yourself together so that you 
can get up and come. 

970
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:31,440
He will give you the strength to
serve, since He's called you to 

971
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:35,960
serve one another. 
Well, you know, I've served the 

972
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:37,400
church. 
For 10 years, you know I'm going

973
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,360
to retire. 
I don't have any more strength. 

974
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:46,760
So you lost the Holy Ghost? 
I mean, I don't know. 

975
01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:51,000
How a believer when someone 
comes and asks them, hey, we 

976
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:54,040
have a need, can you do this? 
Say Nah. 

977
01:03:56,000 --> 01:04:00,440
The first response it should. 
Be you know what, I will take it

978
01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:03,320
under consideration. 
I mean, I understand not 

979
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:07,240
everybody can do everything, but
sometimes when there's a need 

980
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,960
and we happen to hit a deficit 
in an area because of whatever 

981
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:13,680
the case may be, we need a next 
man up. 

982
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:17,160
And when it's time for the next 
man. 

983
01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:20,520
Up next woman up then you need 
to dig deep, get the spirit of 

984
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:23,640
strength on you and say, you 
know what, I'm not called to it.

985
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,520
I understand this is not, but at
this point because it's 

986
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:30,040
necessary, I'll trust God He'll 
strengthen me to be at A7 in the

987
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,520
gap for this time period. 
Amen. 

988
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,960
I mean, that's like second 
string quarterback sitting on 

989
01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:41,920
the bench, the first string goes
down and they say you're going 

990
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:43,200
in. 
I'm no, no. 

991
01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:47,480
You mean though you know I? 
Haven't got enough snaps. 

992
01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:50,640
In fact, if if you cared so much
about me, I'd already be first. 

993
01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:53,520
You really don't value me 
anyway, boy. 

994
01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:55,640
I mean you know how many people 
are not serving a church right 

995
01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:57,440
now because they don't think 
they're valued? 

996
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:01,200
You don't know who you are 
because God values you. 

997
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:02,920
Your if your values coming from 
me. 

998
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:05,880
That's the problem. 
You're a self seeker and there's

999
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:09,680
way more evil going on than what
you want to believe. 

1000
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:14,200
I'm just saying man, when when 
someone goes down and you have a

1001
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:19,880
talent OR ability, you should 
say man, here I am coach put me 

1002
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:22,200
in. 
It may not be long term, but I'm

1003
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:26,520
here to serve during and. 
Then believe with us. 

1004
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:31,240
To get your replacement. 
Hallelujah. 

1005
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,480
So that's what strength will do.
Ephesians 10/6 says this. 

1006
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:40,240
Finally, be strong in the Lord 
and the strength of His might, 

1007
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:51,290
which tells us no believer 
should be quitting because even 

1008
01:05:51,290 --> 01:05:56,770
the Bible declares when I'm 
weak, he makes me strong. 

1009
01:05:57,650 --> 01:06:00,610
So if you're still weak, you're 
resisting the one who makes you 

1010
01:06:00,610 --> 01:06:04,200
strong. 
And one way that you may be. 

1011
01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:06,920
Resisting him is that you're not
praying in the Spirit enough, 

1012
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:09,720
building up your most holy faith
so that you can get the joy of 

1013
01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:13,000
the Lord, which is your the 
reason why many believers aren't

1014
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:14,640
doing anything today because 
they have no joy. 

1015
01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:20,600
They quit listening. 
To the magistrate, they said you

1016
01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:21,760
need to get a smile on your 
face. 

1017
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:27,280
You need to smile. 
You need to laugh a little bit. 

1018
01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:30,680
You need to quit having the 
spirit of heaviness. 

1019
01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:33,120
You know, let. 
Me slap you with. 

1020
01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:35,640
All the gladness a little bit, 
right? 

1021
01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,400
Can I? 
Can I just now? 

1022
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:40,160
Here's the thing. 
There are. 

1023
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:42,720
Some churches that think the 
Holy Ghost only moves when 

1024
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:48,680
people are laughing. 
And all they're doing is waiting

1025
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:50,080
for that. 
Service so everybody can just 

1026
01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:52,600
start laughing and go around and
hit this person and they laugh 

1027
01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:54,440
and hit that person and they 
laugh and hit that person. 

1028
01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:57,600
You know, sometimes I'm like in 
some people's ministry, I'm 

1029
01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:02,600
like, my gosh, they go to some 
of the weakest people ever that 

1030
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:04,240
they've constantly have to get 
them. 

1031
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:11,120
Enjoy. 
I told you I'm not. 

1032
01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:13,040
I'm not like. 
Pastor, you know, people just 

1033
01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:17,360
eat things. 
I'm like, how come every time 

1034
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:20,000
you're with a group that's 
supposed to be the most 

1035
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:23,360
spiritual all? 
We do is fall on the. 

1036
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:33,370
Floor and laugh all the time. 
Do you really believe that When?

1037
01:07:33,410 --> 01:07:36,130
Jesus walked the planet that his
disciples were rolling around 

1038
01:07:36,130 --> 01:07:42,440
laughing all the time. 
And I'm not against laughing 

1039
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:43,520
and. 
Rolling and having fun. 

1040
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:44,840
I mean I have rolled with the 
best. 

1041
01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:46,600
I've laughed. 
I mean I'm a person who will get

1042
01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:48,480
in. 
I'll get in not feeling nothing,

1043
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,120
jumping. 
I'll go test the waters people. 

1044
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:53,760
I mean I'm the Brother Hagin. 
I jumped off in the flesh, which

1045
01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:56,760
mean I by faith. 
That doesn't mean when Brother 

1046
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,640
Hagin said I jumped off in the 
flesh and I landed in the spirit

1047
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,400
that he was being fleshly to do 
something fleshly. 

1048
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:06,480
What he was saying is I sensed 
in my spirit, but I didn't feel 

1049
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:08,080
it. 
It wasn't tangible, the 

1050
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:09,720
anointing. 
But when I jumped off, the 

1051
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,560
anointing hit me. 
And that becomes an actual 

1052
01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:16,000
feeling because when the 
anointing gets on you to that 

1053
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:21,040
kind of measure, you get it, You
know, it's different. 

1054
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:23,520
I. 
Get that and I'll. 

1055
01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:30,359
And I'll ask we laughing today 
because if we are, I'm in it 

1056
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,120
but. 
If this is just because. 

1057
01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,600
People are making the minister 
move. 

1058
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,520
And they're performing. 
Well, maybe I'm not. 

1059
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:49,200
Now Pastor Lynette Hagan. 
Taught us a lesson back in the 

1060
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:52,760
backroom, she said. 
Now you'll notice if I don't. 

1061
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:54,640
Think that they're flowing with.
The Spirit, right? 

1062
01:08:55,160 --> 01:09:01,319
I'll just stay seated. 
Whoo I'm. 

1063
01:09:02,279 --> 01:09:05,840
Going to tell you right now, if 
I'm at Raymond, one of those 

1064
01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:09,040
services and I'm getting a 
little check myself, I start to 

1065
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:16,760
eyeball what's Pastor Lynette 
doing right now because I've 

1066
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:22,080
never seen a couple in more 
integrity of wanting a true 

1067
01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:26,040
authentic move of the Spirit. 
And Pastor Hagen and his wife, 

1068
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:28,720
Pastor Lynette? 
I've never seen one better. 

1069
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:34,600
Pastor Hagen. 
God love him, every year has to 

1070
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:37,680
come up to the platform and let 
them know that the services 

1071
01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:39,240
should be different. 
They're probably going to be 

1072
01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:41,319
different. 
And please do not associate one 

1073
01:09:41,319 --> 01:09:45,160
style as the only way God moves.
And I'm like, man, these are 

1074
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:48,120
Ramaphobe. 
Why are we having to explain so 

1075
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:54,320
much? 
Hallelujah. 

1076
01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:56,160
All right, that's my little side
note. 

1077
01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:59,760
Let's go on so we can finish. 
The last one is knowledge. 

1078
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:03,280
Proverbs 17 says this. 
The fear of the Lord is the 

1079
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:06,440
beginning of knowledge. 
Bulls despise wisdom and 

1080
01:10:06,440 --> 01:10:08,920
instruction. 
Well now we have 3, you know 

1081
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:10,520
four of them right there in this
one sentence. 

1082
01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:12,120
We have the spirit of the fear 
of the Lord, the spirit of 

1083
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:14,880
knowledge, the spirit of wisdom,
the spirit of instruction, right

1084
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:21,520
of counsel. 
OK, so we have this in this 

1085
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,040
passage. 
Now the fear of the Lord's a big

1086
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:25,760
deal, because what does fear of 
the Lord does? 

1087
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:27,600
The fear of the Lord will cause 
you to yield. 

1088
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:30,000
First of all, when you have the 
spirit of the Lord, which means 

1089
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:32,160
you're supreme and authority, 
and I am not going to tell you 

1090
01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:34,800
what to do, then you have the 
fear of the Lord. 

1091
01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:36,760
I do not want to do anything to 
displease you. 

1092
01:10:37,440 --> 01:10:40,160
Everything sandwiched in between
becomes easy to yield to. 

1093
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:43,920
And then you're not actually. 
Manipulated either. 

1094
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:49,360
Are you hearing me OK? 
Knowledge is founded on the 

1095
01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,080
fellowship of love. 
Very important. 

1096
01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:56,360
OK, this is not. 
And when we say knowledge, we're

1097
01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:59,600
not talking facts. 
We're talking knowledge of the 

1098
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:03,840
attributes and plans. 
That's the mind and will of God 

1099
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:06,720
the Father. 
And we're talking knowledge. 

1100
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:10,000
Really, it's like what Paul said
in the book of Philippians 

1101
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:14,120
chapter 3. 
He said I want to know him. 

1102
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:17,880
So these are not. 
Trivia. 

1103
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:21,800
Trivia knowledge, this is not, 
you know, what were the three 

1104
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,440
people in that were thrown into 
fiery furnace? 

1105
01:11:24,440 --> 01:11:26,960
What were their names? 
What were their Hebrew names? 

1106
01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:29,080
Did Adam have a belly button? 
Right. 

1107
01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:33,120
OK, we're not talking about 
knowledge that way. 

1108
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:37,040
We're talking about knowing him.
In fact, this word I want to 

1109
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:41,480
know him has this definition 
sexual intercourse between a man

1110
01:11:41,480 --> 01:11:45,600
and wife, which means intimacy. 
So. 

1111
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,480
Paul. 
Was saying I want to know him 

1112
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,720
intimately. 
I want to know how he thinks, 

1113
01:11:51,840 --> 01:11:55,480
how he functions, how he moves, 
what he's thinking, how he's 

1114
01:11:55,480 --> 01:12:00,000
acting, how he responds. 
I want to know his character so.

1115
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:02,520
We're talking about the 
knowledge of God. 

1116
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:03,800
This. 
Is what we're talking about. 

1117
01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:06,960
We're not talking about a set of
facts that you, the religious, 

1118
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:08,600
can shoot off at the mouth 
about. 

1119
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:13,840
We're talking about knowing him.
Proverbs 810 says this. 

1120
01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:17,360
Take my instruction and not 
silver and knowledge rather than

1121
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,480
choice gold. 
This is why I said, look, so 

1122
01:12:19,480 --> 01:12:22,280
many people are pursuing Mammon,
but they don't even know who I 

1123
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:25,240
am. 
Again, all of. 

1124
01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:28,720
US can go to a football game, 
and if anyone went to 

1125
01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:32,560
Gainesville and watch that game 
that was a Gator fan, they left 

1126
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:36,080
sorely depressed. 
In fact, it. 

1127
01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:40,440
Was so bad if I had still if I 
still had a Florida Gator tag on

1128
01:12:40,440 --> 01:12:43,960
my vehicle I would have ripped 
it off and drove here illegally.

1129
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:46,640
That's how. 
Embarrassing, that was. 

1130
01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:51,480
OK, that's how embarrassing that
it is, coach hunting season for 

1131
01:12:51,480 --> 01:12:54,680
the University of Florida. 
All right, with that being said,

1132
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:56,880
don't get upset if that's a 
problem, you can come repent 

1133
01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,880
later because I was born. 
In Gainesville. 

1134
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:03,760
You know, I used to bleed orange
and blue. 

1135
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:08,960
I don't anymore because I'm I'm 
not a follower nor am I even a 

1136
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:11,320
fan. 
I'm just a casual acquaintance 

1137
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:15,800
and I will not express emotional
energy at horrible play. 

1138
01:13:16,000 --> 01:13:18,840
OK, so with that. 
Being said. 

1139
01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:23,480
We pursue things. 
Are you hearing me? 

1140
01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:28,320
We pursue things, yet the Lord's
like come know me. 

1141
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:32,400
You know how many hours we will 
chase money and work for money 

1142
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:35,080
but will not do the same to know
him? 

1143
01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:39,680
And here's the thing, it's not a
equal amount. 

1144
01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:43,360
If I do 8 hours of work, I got 
to do 8 hours trying to seek God

1145
01:13:43,480 --> 01:13:45,440
for it to equate the same. 
That's not how it works. 

1146
01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:50,040
When you go after God you can 
get things in a blip of a second

1147
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:56,720
and download more than you could
have done working 5 jobs 1000 

1148
01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:58,440
hours a week. 
Which is impossible. 

1149
01:13:58,440 --> 01:13:59,480
But you understand what I'm 
saying. 

1150
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:04,240
OK, Proverbs 12/1. 
Whoever loves discipline loves 

1151
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:07,840
knowledge. 
But the one who hates where 

1152
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:11,600
proof. 
Is is what you said it. 

1153
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,600
I didn't but. 
Actually, you didn't say it. 

1154
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,080
Who? 
Said it, the Lord said. 

1155
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:19,800
Are you calling me stupid? 
No, God is. 

1156
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:25,440
God is. 
Which? 

1157
01:14:25,440 --> 01:14:27,880
Means if I meet with you. 
And I say you're stupid right 

1158
01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:30,880
now. 
I could be speaking the voice. 

1159
01:14:30,880 --> 01:14:34,760
Of God now you won't give the 
right counsel when you leave. 

1160
01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:37,800
Patrick called me stupid, you 
know He called me stupid. 

1161
01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:40,200
Did you call them stupid? 
I called them stupid. 

1162
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:43,560
You know why? 
Because they hated reproof. 

1163
01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:47,560
I gave them solid. 
Counsel by the spirit of 

1164
01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:49,360
counsel. 
And they hated the reproof. 

1165
01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:56,560
Say Amen anyway. 
Hallelujah. 

1166
01:14:57,680 --> 01:14:59,480
OK, that was good. 
Who said anyway? 

1167
01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:03,200
Do you? 
Every time you're. 

1168
01:15:03,200 --> 01:15:05,600
Literal Oh you're such a sweet 
guy. 

1169
01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:10,520
Though whoever loves. 
Discipline loves. 

1170
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:14,200
Loves what? 
Which tells us this. 

1171
01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:15,840
If you do not love discipline, 
guess what? 

1172
01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:19,160
You're not receiving. 
You're not intimate with Him 

1173
01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:22,440
because you can't be intimate 
with God without discipline 

1174
01:15:22,440 --> 01:15:25,680
coming. 
What did the father say to? 

1175
01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:27,080
Abraham, he said. 
Look. 

1176
01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:29,440
Or to Moses, No one has ever 
seen me. 

1177
01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:31,600
You came. 
See me? 

1178
01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:34,240
You're going to die. 
What I'm going to do is I'm 

1179
01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:36,280
going to put you in the cleft of
this rock, right? 

1180
01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:39,160
And then I'm going to pass by 
and see my back parts, OK? 

1181
01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:40,920
Because he like, show me your 
glory, Lord, he said. 

1182
01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:48,320
Bro, Nah, Nah. 
You get get close to me. 

1183
01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:50,640
So much correction be going on 
in you. 

1184
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:55,080
You die. 
You know, this is really why 

1185
01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:57,320
people have a. 
Hard time with a real church, 

1186
01:15:57,720 --> 01:16:00,800
the church Jesus is building, 
you know it's. 

1187
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:01,760
Easy to go to a church that 
won't. 

1188
01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:04,680
Ever correct you, but again, if 
you're really going to be in the

1189
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:09,560
presence of God. 
Corrections coming. 

1190
01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:12,240
You know. 
And at least the Army. 

1191
01:16:12,480 --> 01:16:16,440
Convinced us make it hurt, drill
Sergeant, make it hurt, right. 

1192
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:23,120
What's you know in my confession
was like no leave me alone let 

1193
01:16:23,120 --> 01:16:27,480
me get up right now you know and
when we first started they'd be 

1194
01:16:27,480 --> 01:16:30,480
down doing push ups, I'd be down
put on push ups and they would 

1195
01:16:30,480 --> 01:16:32,600
smoke us. 
They said you can't smoke a 

1196
01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:34,320
rock, can't smoke a rock, can't 
smoke. 

1197
01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:35,520
Come on how many of my army guys
are here? 

1198
01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:38,880
Stand up, can't smoke a rock, 
can't smoke a rock right stand 

1199
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:39,880
up. 
I said stand up. 

1200
01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:42,920
Y'all knew how to take orders at
one time apparently right? 

1201
01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:45,680
How many times you like now you 
know as well as I do. 

1202
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:50,360
At the end of basic they started
to trick us and they put 1 drill

1203
01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:53,800
Sergeant down and you're like oh
here we go bro, I'm going to 

1204
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:57,320
smoke the rock because I got it 
in me right? 

1205
01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:02,920
And then he would get up or she 
well if you were in the female, 

1206
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:08,040
you know, platoon I didn't have 
in AIT I had a female but I 

1207
01:17:08,040 --> 01:17:11,440
didn't have one in basic anyway.
Then they would throw the other 

1208
01:17:11,440 --> 01:17:13,600
guy in who's fresh that would 
start. 

1209
01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:15,520
Can't smoke around. 
I'm like, if you'd have been 

1210
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:20,360
down 60 push ups earlier, we'd 
be having another conversation 

1211
01:17:20,440 --> 01:17:25,560
as I'm at 8085 now, still trying
to pursue knocking you out. 

1212
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,040
Right? 
All right, don't be seated. 

1213
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:34,320
But we got stronger as we. 
Went Amen, but you had to like 

1214
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:37,360
discipline and it made. 
You intimate. 

1215
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,160
With the one who was bringing 
you the discipline. 

1216
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,440
Ephesians 117 says this that I 
that the God of our Lord Jesus 

1217
01:17:43,440 --> 01:17:45,960
Christ, the Father of glory may 
give to you the spirit of what 

1218
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,920
we've talked about that one and 
of revelation in what the 

1219
01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:54,400
knowledge of the knowledge of 
him man we need to know him. 

1220
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:57,680
I said we need to know him. 
Philippians 19 says it this way 

1221
01:17:57,680 --> 01:17:59,480
and this. 
I pray that your love may abound

1222
01:17:59,480 --> 01:18:03,200
still more and more in in what 
real knowledge and in all 

1223
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:06,440
discernment that can, that 
implies there can be not real 

1224
01:18:06,440 --> 01:18:08,760
knowledge. 
Really, it would just be trivia.

1225
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,160
It would be like having a 
baseball card and you know the 

1226
01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:12,920
facts. 
You know this player did this, 

1227
01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:14,520
that and the other, but you 
don't know them. 

1228
01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:16,680
They've never seen your face. 
You're wearing all their 

1229
01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:18,720
apparel. 
You go to the game, you think 

1230
01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:21,680
you would be that person's twin,
but they don't even know you 

1231
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:24,960
exist. 
And you may have seen them face 

1232
01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:26,320
to. 
Face and they may have said hey 

1233
01:18:26,320 --> 01:18:28,840
to you, and they may have given 
you an autograph, but you don't 

1234
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:30,960
know them. 
And this is how we treat the 

1235
01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:33,360
Lord. 
We want to get in His presence, 

1236
01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:36,280
watch his game, but yet He 
doesn't know us. 

1237
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:37,960
But we really don't want to 
know. 

1238
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:43,720
Now He knows us, but we don't 
want to know Him. 

1239
01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:47,360
Colossians 110 says so that you 
may walk in a manner what we're 

1240
01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:50,440
the other Lord to please him in 
all respect, bearing fruit in 

1241
01:18:50,440 --> 01:18:54,240
every good work, increasing, say
increasing in the knowledge of 

1242
01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:55,960
God. 
Man, we need to increase in 

1243
01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:58,200
God's knowledge. 
Hallelujah. 

1244
01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:02,400
And guess what? 
We have the Spirit of knowledge.

1245
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:05,840
That means God has given us His 
Spirit that will let us become 

1246
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:10,000
intimate with Him. 
But we have to spend. 

1247
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:12,480
Time. 
You know I said this before our 

1248
01:19:12,480 --> 01:19:16,800
last verse is John 1526, but you
know that I said this before the

1249
01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:19,400
Lord spoke to me one time and he
said, Son, if you spend as much 

1250
01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:21,600
time with your wife as you do 
with me, you wouldn't be married

1251
01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:27,680
very long. 
I go to church. 

1252
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:33,840
I knew some things about God. 
But I wasn't with him and. 

1253
01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:40,520
Again, it's not hour. 
For hour, minute, for minute, 

1254
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:43,360
but. 
When I'm with my wife, I want to

1255
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:44,080
be with. 
My wife. 

1256
01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:46,600
I want to cultivate the 
relationship. 

1257
01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:50,320
I want to know her. 
I want to know everything about 

1258
01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:55,200
her. 
And I can tell you stuff. 

1259
01:19:56,040 --> 01:19:58,920
That I'm not, because I tell you
too much now as it is. 

1260
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:08,600
But we should have even more 
knowledge of the. 

1261
01:20:08,600 --> 01:20:09,760
Father in heaven and when you 
do. 

1262
01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:12,440
Know him that way, how can you 
ever abandoned him? 

1263
01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:20,520
How can he be like I'm? 
Not whatever you're like. 

1264
01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:23,320
Running to be in his. 
Presence running to be in 

1265
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:26,080
fellowship. 
Last verse of John 1526. 

1266
01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:29,480
Worship team, would you come? 
Now I'm going to say this 

1267
01:20:29,480 --> 01:20:31,840
because. 
Jesus introduced the Holy Spirit

1268
01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:35,360
and this one phrase sums up the 
seven spirits of God and. 

1269
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:40,480
When the helper comes. 
Whom I will send to you from the

1270
01:20:40,480 --> 01:20:44,240
Father, that is the. 
Spirit of Truth. 

1271
01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:48,000
You understand the Spirit of 
Truth is the sum total of all 

1272
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:52,360
seven of those spirits. 
When the Holy Spirit comes, he. 

1273
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:55,680
Is truth. 
He is truth. 

1274
01:20:56,400 --> 01:21:00,960
He will proceed from the Father,
and he will what testify about 

1275
01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:02,480
me. 
He is the spirit of intellect. 

1276
01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:07,800
He's here to renew your mind. 
He's here to change your 

1277
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:12,400
thinking. 
He's here to tell you that's not

1278
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:15,320
right. 
You're not that person. 

1279
01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:18,360
This is who you are and this is 
what you can do. 

1280
01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:22,240
And he's waiting for you to say.
Yes, Lord. 

1281
01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:24,840
I'll accept that.
