(MUSIC)
COME ON CHURCH, LET'S GIVE HIM SOME PRAISE. WE SERVE THE LORD
OF THE BREAKTHROUGH. LET ME HEAR YOU GIVE HIM SOME GLORY.
(MUSIC)
AMEN. HALLELUJAH. HALLELUJAH, GOD, WE HONOR YOU TODAY. YOU ARE
THE LORD. YES. YOU'RE THE LORD OF THE BREAKTHROUGH. AND GOD, WE
LOOK TO YOU AS OUR ROCK, OUR FORTRESS, OUR HIGH TOWER, OUR
DELIVERER. YES, LORD. BUT MOST OF ALL, OUR GOD AND OUR FRIEND.
HALLELUJAH. AND WE INVITE YOUR PRESENCE HERE TODAY TO TOUCH THE
PEOPLE. YES, LORD JESUS, YES. AND WE BLESS YOU AND WE HONOR
YOU. AND ALL THE PEOPLE THAT LOVE GOD, INCLUDING THIS SECTION
OVER HERE, SAID? AMEN! THAT'S PRETTY LOUD. AMEN, THAT WAS
REALLY GOOD. BUT I THINK THIS SECTION, YOU GUYS ROCKED IT
HERE. I COULD KINDA HEAR IT OVER HERE, YOU DID GOOD. SO, AND SO
GOOD. WASN'T THAT I WAS TRYING TO SINGLE YOU OUT TODAY, BUT YOU
KNOW, LAST COUPLE WEEKS, NO, YOU'RE ALL GOOD. SO, EVERYBODY'S
STAYING WARM? WE'RE WORKING ON IT. YOU'RE WORKING ON IT? YEAH,
IT'S CHILLY OUT THERE. YEAH, THIS IS WHEN I JUST, I PRAY
THAT, WELL, I CAN'T REALLY COMPLAIN BECAUSE, YOU KNOW,
NEBRASKA, THIS TIME OF YEAR, WE'VE HAD 40, 50 DEGREE WEATHER
SO YOU CAN'T REALLY COMPLAIN, RIGHT? THAT'S TRUE. I DON'T
THINK WE'VE GONE REALLY BELOW ZERO YET, SO THAT'S A PLUS.
THAT'S GOOD. THAT IS GOOD. WELL, YOU KNOW, WE ARE ENTERING,
THOUGH, IN WHAT IS CALLED THE REMOTE PART OF THE YEAR. HOW
MANY OF YOU KNOW WHAT THE REMOTE PART OF THE YEAR IS? YOU DON'T
HAVE ANY IDEA? HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THE REMOTE
PART? SO BRENDA, TELL US PLEASE. I'M GONNA GREET THE PEOPLE
ONLINE AND SEE IF THEY KNOW. SO I WANNA DO THIS. I WANNA GREET
THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING ALSO AROUND THE WORLD. I PRAY
IT'S WARMER. YOU KNOW, YOU'RE PROBABLY DOWN IN FLORIDA. WELL,
MAYBE THE SANDS BE COLD IN THE WATER TOO SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND
WHAT WE DEAL WITH HERE. BUT WE'RE ENTERING INTO A REMOTE
PLACE. SO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS? YOU CAN PUT IT IN THE
COMMENT. IT MEANS THAT TOMORROW NIGHT IS THE NATIONAL
CHAMPIONSHIP GAME OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL. AND THEN IN A COUPLE
WEEKS IS THE SUPER BOWL. AND THEN BRENDA GETS THE REMOTE FOR
MONTHS UNTIL KICKOFF. SO IT'S, UH, HOW MANY GOT THAT? D, YOU
ACTUALLY, D, YOU ACTUALLY LAUGHED. OKAY, LET ME HEAR SOME
ORGAN MUSIC OF CELEBRATION. OH, LOOK AT THAT. NO, YOU NEED TO
HEAR IT ON THE MICROPHONE. I GOTTA HEAR HIS VOICE. GO AHEAD,
GET HIM ON THERE. HE'S GOT A DEEP VOICE. LET ME HEAR ONE
MORE, I LIKE THAT. OH, THERE'S NO SOUND OUT THERE. HOW ABOUT
JAKE, THE BASS? CAN WE HEAR, YOU KNOW? I MEAN, HE LIKED THAT.
THAT WAS GOOD. ALL RIGHT, WELL, I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT TODAY.
WE'RE GONNA KEEP TALKING ABOUT THE SEASON THAT WE'RE IN. AND
I'M JUST REALLY CONVINCED IN MY HEART THAT WE'RE GONNA START
SEEING NOT ONLY THE SHIFT CHANGE, BUT A SWIFT CHANGE. HOW
MANY ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT? SO WE'RE GONNA BREAK IT
DOWN. BUT BEFORE WE WORSHIP, I JUST WANNA SAY ONE OTHER THING.
YOU KNOW, I PUT A LOT OF THOUGHT INTO THIS. AND I DON'T KNOW IF
YOU GUYS KNOW IT, GROUNDHOG DAY IS GETTING READY TO COME. HOW
MANY ARE READY FOR GROUNDHOG DAY? HOW MANY OF YOU THINK AHEAD
OF TIME THAT SQUIRREL IS GONNA SEE HIS SHADOW? LET ME SEE YOUR
HAND. I DON'T KNOW. NO, NO, NO. WELL, I'M A STUDIER AND I'M A
RESEARCHER, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING. AND I FOUND OUT
THAT NOT ONLY IS GROUNDHOG DAY, GROUNDHOG DAY, BUT IT'S ALSO
NATIONAL SHOVEL DAY. DID YOU KNOW THAT? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
WELL, IT DIDN'T REALLY CARRY ENOUGH WEIGHT TO WHERE PEOPLE
REALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT IT WAS A NATIONAL DAY OF THE DISCOVERY OF
THE SHOVEL BECAUSE THE DAY AFTER THE BROOM WAS DISCOVERED AND IT
SWEPT THE NATION. SO WE'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO COME BACK TO THE
DAY OF IT. ALL RIGHT, THAT'S TWO THAT HAVE BEEN REALLY GOOD
TODAY. SO I THINK WITH THAT, WE NEED TO HONOR THE LORD FOR
HUMOR. WE NEED TO WORSHIP GOD AND THANK HIM FOR, I DIDN'T SAY
MINE, I SAID HUMOR. SO MAYBE WE SHOULD WORSHIP THE LORD THERE.
OKAY, WELL, BEFORE WE DO, I DO WANNA SAY, THANK YOU FOR ALL OF
US AND THOSE OF YOU ONLINE SENT SUCH NICE COMMENTS. OUR LITTLE
DOG, CHICA. OH YEAH. REMEMBER I LEFT AND WE TOOK HER TO PET
EMERGENCY OR URGENT CARE. IT'S NOT TOO FAR FROM THE CHURCH. AND
WENT HOME, GOT HER. SHE GOT A LITTLE NOSE SEWN BACK UP, AND
SHE'S BEEN DOING GOOD. SHE HAS TO WEAR THAT CONE. SHE HATES IT.
SO WE GOT THERE, AND THE VET GOES, I KNOW YOU. SHE HAS BEEN
CONNECTED TO LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH, DR. EMILY. SO SHE AND
HER PARENTS COME HERE. DAVE, IS HE HERE TODAY? OR SOMETIMES HE
WATCHES ONLINE AS WELL? WELL, IT'S CHILLY OUT. MAYBE NOT. IT'S
CHILLY OUT, BUT ANYWAY, SO WE WERE ABLE TO TALK ABOUT SOME
AMAZING THINGS. WELL, AND SHE GOES, HEY, WE KNOW YOU GUYS. AND
SHE SAID, I WOULD COME TO THE CHURCH MORE. BUT SHE SAID, I
MANAGE THIS PLACE. SHE'S THE VET OVER THERE ON SUNDAY. AND THEN
SHE GOES, CAN WE PRAY? AND YOU TALK ABOUT DR. EMILY. SHE PRAYED
A HOLY GHOST PRAYER OVER OUR DOG. I'M LIKE, YEAH, THAT'S THE
KIND OF DOCTOR AND SURGEON YOU NEED. SO YOU KNOW, GOD ORDERS
YOUR STUFF. RIGHT BEFORE SHE DID SURGERY, SHE PRAYED. AND IT WAS
AMAZING. IT WAS AMAZING. SO IT WAS PRETTY COOL. AND OUR LITTLE
GIRL IS DOING TREMENDOUS. SHE'S ALL BETTER. SHE'S STILL IN THE
CONE OF SHAME, BUT SHE'LL BE OUT SOON. SO ALL RIGHT, WELL, ARE
YOU EXCITED TO PRAISE GOD IN THE HOUSE OF GOD THIS MORNING? THIS
IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY. COME ON, JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO SHED OFF
ANYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN YOUR WEEK AND FOCUS ON THE LORD. BY
THE WAY, I JUST SAW JUDY ARMSTRONG. BRENNAN AND BAILEY
HAD THEIR BABIES, SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT. AND IT WAS,
SHE WAS BORN ON YOUR BIRTHDAY, WHICH WAS YESTERDAY. COME ON,
GIVE HER A GREAT BIG GRANDMA, CONGRATULATIONS, HOW EXCITING.
SO WE ARE SO EXCITED. I MEAN, YOU GOTTA GROW THE CHURCH ONE
WAY OR ANOTHER, RIGHT? THAT'S A GOOD WAY. ALL RIGHT, THROW THOSE
HANDS UP TO HEAVEN. SAY, LORD. I'M GONNA PRESS IN TODAY. I'M
GONNA GROW. I'M GONNA LEARN. AND I THANK YOU. I'M GONNA RECEIVE
THE TOUCH OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. AND LORD, I PROMISE TO GIVE YOU,
ARE YOU READY? MY VERY BEST PRAISE. COME ON,
SHOUT LIKE YOU'RE EXCITED. LET'S PRAISE THE LORD.

YOU ARE HIGHLY EXALTED. YOU ARE HIGHLY EXALTED.
(MUSIC)
COME ON NOW, JUST THE VOICES. JUST THE VOICES.
COME ON NOW, SING IT WITH ALL YOUR
HEART. I EXALT THE KING OF GLORY.
WE WORSHIP YOU. COME ON, LET'S CONTINUE TO SING TO THE KING OF
KINGS ALL OVER THE WORLD. WE WORSHIP YOU, GOD. YOU ARE WORTHY
OF IT ALL. LET THAT BE THE SONG THAT YOU SING. WE WORSHIP YOU.
WE WORSHIP YOU. WE WORSHIP YOU, KING JESUS. YOU DESERVE THE
GLORY. WE WORSHIP YOU, ONE SOUND. YOU ARE WORTHY OF IT
ALL. WE BRING ADORATION AND HONOR TO YOU, GOD.
COME ON, WORSHIP HIM. WORSHIP HIM. WORSHIP HIM. WE WORSHIP
YOU. WE LIFT UP OUR VOICES, OUR HEARTS, OUR HANDS TO
YOUR MAJESTY. TO YOUR MIGHT AND YOUR DOMINION.
ALL RIGHT, I WANT YOU TO REALLY SING TO HIM AGAIN. COME ON,
LET'S RAISE IT UP. LIFT UP YOUR VOICE. YOU'RE WORTHY OF IT ALL,
GOD. SO MIGHTY AND GLORIOUS ARE YOU GOD.
COME ON, SAY IT WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE. COME ON, LET GOD SEE
THE SMILE OF ADORATION TO HIM. COME ON SING IT WITH A SMILE AND
GLADNESS IN YOUR HEART TO GOD. LET HIM HEAR YOU. COME ON AS YOU
SMILE TO GOD, MAY HE SMILE AND RETURN UPON US. WE WORSHIP YOU.
NOW I WANT YOU JUST TO BEGIN TO SAY IT. COME ON, SAY JESUS,
JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, JESUS, JESUS,
JESUS, JESUS, YOU ARE LORD, JESUS. COME ON, SAY THE NAME,
JESUS. COME ON, YESHUA, YESHUA, YESHUA, YESHUA, YESHUA, YESHUA
IS LORD OVER THE EARTH. YESHUA, YESHUA IS LORD OVER MY LIFE.
YESHUA. SOME OF YOU NEED TO SAY IT, YESHUA. YESHUA. YESHUA!
YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA!
YESHUA! YOU ARE KING! YESHUA! YESHUA! YESHUA! OUR LORD, OUR
GOD! WORTHY, WORTHY ARE YOU, JESUS! YESHUA! OUR CONQUERING
KING! OH HOW WE HONOR YOU TODAY, HOW WE LOVE YOU. THANK YOU,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. YOU KNOW, I WAS
THINKING AS WE'RE WORSHIPING HERE TODAY AND THOSE OF YOU THAT
ARE WATCHING, I THINK OF TWO SPECIFIC THINGS TO ILLUSTRATE
WHAT I BELIEVE GOD WANTS TO DO IN YOUR LIFE AT THIS MOMENT AND
THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING. THE ONE EXAMPLE IS THERE WAS A
WOMAN THAT WAS BENT OVER, I THINK IT WAS FOR 13 YEARS IF I'M
NOT MISTAKEN, AND SHE COULDN'T WISE GET HERSELF STRAIGHTENED
OUT. SO YOU COULD SAY THAT HER LIFE, SHE COULDN'T GET IT
STRAIGHT. AND SOMETIMES SOME THINGS ARE NOT YOUR FAULT. THE
BIBLE SAYS IT WAS A SPIRIT OF INFIRMITY. SO IT WAS AN ATTACK
OF HELL THAT SOMETIMES ATTACKS PEOPLE'S LIVES WHERE YOU'RE JUST
TRYING TO GET YOUR LIFE STRAIGHT, BUT IT'S LIKE ONE
THING AFTER ANOTHER OF THE ENEMY'S ASSAULT AND ASSIGNMENT
AND ATTACKS AGAINST YOU. THE SECOND I THINK OF IS PETER WHO
WAS SINKING. AND SOMETIMES THAT'S OUR CHOICES, RIGHT? NOW
HE DID STEP OUT IN FAITH, BUT WHAT DID HE DO? HIS CHOICE, HE
TOOK HIS EYES OFF OF GOD. THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, HE GOT
IT ON THE STORM. THE BAD THINGS THAT WAS HAPPENING AT THAT
MOMENT. SOMETIMES WE DO THAT. WE CREATE A SINKING, WE CREATE
PROBLEMS BECAUSE WE GET OUR EYES OFF OF JESUS AND WE TRY TO
FIGURE EVERYTHING OUT IN OUR OWN INTELLECTUAL REASONING. SO MAYBE
YOU'RE HERE, THE ENEMY IS HITTING YOU HARD, MAN. YOU'RE
JUST TRYING TO GET YOUR LIFE STRAIGHT, AND YOU'RE LIKE THAT
WOMAN BENT OVER, AND YOU NEED A DIVINE LIFTING. YOU NEED A
DIVINE STRAIGHTENING. YOU SAY, IS THAT POSSIBLE? LISTEN, THE
PROMISE OF THE MESSIAH WAS THAT HE WOULD MAKE CROOKED THINGS
STRAIGHT. SO GOD DOES HAVE THE ABILITY TO STRAIGHTEN THINGS
OUT. IN REGARDS TO PETER, WHO WAS SLIPPING, HE NEEDED A DIVINE
LIFT. AND HE PRAYED PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST SIMPLE, MOST
PROFOUND PRAYERS, AND I'VE PRAYED THAT PRAYER MANY TIMES IN
MY LIFE. YOU KNOW WHAT IT WAS? HELP. MAYBE YOU NEED A DIVINE
LIFT BECAUSE YOU NEED SOME HELP. WELL, ONE THING THAT WE HAVE IS
HEBREWS CHAPTER 4, "YOU CAN COME BOLDLY TO THE THRONE OF GRACE."
AND IT SAYS YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO ASK, BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHY?
THERE'S BLOOD ON THE MERCY SEAT THAT HE HIMSELF, YESHUA ONCE AND
FOR ALL, CARRIED INTO THAT HOLY PLACE, NOT THE BLOOD OF BULLS OR
GOATS OR CALVES, BUT HIS OWN BLOOD. AND HE PUT THAT BLOOD ON
THE MERCY SEAT SO THAT TODAY YOU'VE OBTAINED, IT'S ALREADY
MADE AVAILABLE. ARE YOU READY? IF YOU NEED YOUR LIFE
STRAIGHTENED OUT, IF YOU NEED TO BE DIVINELY LIFTED, THE BIBLE
SAYS YOU'VE ALREADY OBTAINED GRACE, MERCY, AND WATCH THIS.
WHAT DID HE PRAY? LORD HELP ME. THE BIBLE SAYS YOU'VE RECEIVED
HELP. SO HERE'S WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO. IF YOU NEED A DIVINE
STRAIGHTENING, I WANT YOU TO STRAIGHTEN UP AS AS TALL AS YOU
CAN. YOU SAY, "YEAH, BUT I'VE GOT A BACK INJURY." NO, EVEN IF
YOU'RE LIKE THIS AND THIS IS ALL YOU CAN DO, I'M GOING TO DECLARE
AND PROPHESY A DIVINE STRAIGHTENING, NOT ALL OVER YOUR
PHYSICAL BODY, BUT WHATEVER IT IS THAT YOU ARE FACING IN YOUR
LIFE. MAYBE YOU NEED TO BE LIFTED. WE'LL PRAY ABOUT THAT
PART AFTER WE PRAY THIS. SO IN THE NAME OF YESHUA RIGHT NOW,
FOR THOSE THAT ARE IN THIS ROOM AND THOSE THAT ARE WATCHING,
LORD, LIKE THE WOMAN, A SPIRIT OF INFIRMITY HAD ATTACKED HER
BODY, AND SHE NEEDED A DIVINE LIFTING, A DIVINE STRAIGHTENING.
MAYBE THE ENEMY, LORD, IS ATTACKING THE PEOPLE RIGHT NOW
IN THE AUTHORITY THAT HAS BEEN GIVEN TO US IN THE NAME THAT IS
HIGHER THAN ALL NAMES, THE NAME OF JESUS, YESHUA. WE HAVE THE
KEYS OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND WHATEVER WE BIND UPON THIS EARTH
SHALL BE BOUND AND PACKED IN THE COURT OF HEAVEN. SO RIGHT NOW I
BIND EVERY AND ALL SATANIC ASSIGNMENTS, WITCHCRAFT,
DIVINATION, INCANTATION, SATANIC CONTRACTS, COVENANTS, WHERE YOUR
NAMES ARE BEING MENTIONED, WE BREAK IT, WE BIND IT, WE SEVER
IT, WE SAY NO MORE TO THE SPIRITS OF INFIRMITY OR THE
SPIRITS OF DARKNESS WHO HAVE CAUSED YOUR LIFE TO BE BENT OVER
AND OPPRESSED. WE PROPHESY UNDER THE UNCTION OF GOD, WE SAY
WHATEVER IS LOOSED ON EARTH SHALL BE LOOSED OUT OF THE
HEAVENS. WE LOOSE THAT DIVINE STRAIGHTENING. WE LOOSE THAT
ANOINTING THAT LIFTS YOU UP, HEALS YOUR BODY, AND CAUSES
OPPRESSION TO BE SET FREE. HE HAS CAUSED THE OPPRESSED TO BE
SET FREE, EVEN THE DEPRESSED. AND GOD, I SPEAK A DELIVERANCE
OVER THE PEOPLE NOW. NOW, FATHER, MAYBE THERE ARE THOSE
THAT NEED A LIFT. THEY NEED HELP. I WANT YOU TO DO THIS.
JUST REACH YOUR HAND OUT TO GOD. IF YOU'RE WATCHING TODAY, REACH
YOUR HAND OUT TO GOD. REACH YOUR HAND OUT TO GOD AS A POINT OF
CONTACT. COME ON, THAT'S WHAT THE WOMAN WITH ISSUES FOR 12
YEARS OF BLOOD, MAYBE YOUR ISSUES HAVE BEEN GOING ON FOR A
WHILE, AND SHE REACHED OUT HER HAND LIKE PETER, AND THERE WAS
VIRTUE AND POWER TO HEAL, TO DELIVER, TO PROTECT. LORD, WE
ARE SPEAKING NOT ONLY FOR A DIVINE STRAIGHTENING BY THE
POWER OF YOUR SPIRIT, BUT GOD, WE ARE CALLING UPON OUR COVENANT
RIGHT THROUGH THE BLOOD. WE SPEAK YOUR GRACE. WE SPEAK YOUR
MERCY. WE ARE EXPECTING THE SAVING RIGHT HAND OF GOD TO
BRING HELP AT THIS TIME. HELP US GOD. PULL US UP IN A DIVINE
LIFTING NOW. AND MAY THAT VIRTUE THAT CAME FORTH YESHUA OUT OF
YOUR GARMENTS, MAY THAT BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT BE
RELEASED TO THE PEOPLE THAT THEY WILL SEE A DIVINE SHIFT CHANGE,
A SWIFT CHANGE, A LIFTING AND AN ACCELERATION OF THE THINGS THAT
THEY'VE BEEN BELIEVING FOR. AND WE ARE DECLARING THIS NOW. NOW
SAY THIS, SAY, LORD, I RECEIVE A DIVINE STRAIGHTENING, LIFTING,
AND I RECEIVE YOUR MERCY. I RECEIVE YOUR GRACE. I RECEIVE
YOUR HELP. AND I SAY I'M ON A COURSE AND A PATH OF A BLESSED
SEASON, A NEW SEASON THAT IS FILLED WITH DIVINE HEALTH,
DIVINE HEALING, DIVINE LIFE, DIVINE PROTECTION, DIVINE
PRESERVATION, BLESSING IS IN MY LIFE. AMEN. THANK YOU, LORD.
THANK YOU, LORD. WE WORSHIP YOU. WE WORSHIP YOU. THANK YOU, LORD.
AND LORD, WE ALSO PRAY THAT YOU WOULD EXTEND THAT TO OUR LOVED
ONES. THAT GOD, YOU WILL DO THE SAME OF WHAT WE'VE PRAYED AND
WHAT WE'VE BELIEVED FOR. THANK YOU, LORD. THANK YOU, LORD. NOW,
GIVE HIM GRATITUDE. GIVE HIM THANKSGIVING. LORD, I BLOW YOU A
KISS. I HONOR YOU, I THANK YOU. YOU KNOW, I WAS PRAYING ONE
MORNING, THIS WEEK I GOT UP AND I WENT DOWN TO PRAY EARLY IN THE
MORNING, AND I WAS PRAYING AND I KEPT SAYING, GOD, I PUT YOU IN
REMEMBRANCE, I PUT YOU IN REMEMBRANCE, I PUT YOU IN
REMEMBRANCE. AND I KEPT QUOTING
WHAT IT WAS THAT I WAS PUTTING IN REMEMBRANCE OF SOME OF THE
THINGS I PRAYED, BUT THEN OF HIS WORD. AND I STOPPED AND I SAID,
"NOW LORD, I'M NOT PUTTING YOU IN REMEMBRANCE "BECAUSE YOU HAVE
A SHORT MEMORY. "OR AM I INSULTING YOU LIKE YOU ALREADY
DON'T KNOW "OR YOU DON'T REMEMBER?" AND THEN I HEARD THE
HOLY SPIRIT SAY, "KEEP DOING IT." BECAUSE HE SAID, "WHEN YOU
PUT ME IN REMEMBRANCE, "YOU'RE BRINGING HONOR TO ME. "AND IN
RETURN, I DO THE VERY THINGS THAT YOU HAVE IN HONOR BROUGHT
BEFORE ME." IT MANIFESTS OVER YOUR LIFE. SO DON'T THINK THAT
GOD'S FORGETTING YOU. YOU GOT TO PUT HIM IN REMEMBRANCE. "LORD,
YOU SAID IN YOUR WORD THAT I'M HEALED. YOU SAID IN YOUR WORD
THAT I AM THE BLESSED OF THE LORD. YOU SAID IN YOUR WORD THAT
GOODNESS AND MERCY FOLLOWS ME THIS DAY. YOU SAID IN YOUR WORD
I PUT YOUR REMEMBRANCE THAT YOU MEET EVERY ONE OF MY NEED
ACCORDING TO YOUR RICHES AND GLORY. YOU SAID IN YOUR WORD
THAT YOU ARE A GOD OF LOVING KINDNESS AND MERCY AND LONG
SUFFERING. AND SO LORD I HOLD YOU TO YOUR WORD AND I HONOR YOU
AS I PUT YOU IN REMEMBRANCE. AND AS A RESULT GOD SAYS YOU'RE
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. THERE'S TWO THINGS I CAN'T DO. I CAN'T LIE
AND I CAN'T CHANGE. AMEN. PRAISE GOD. WELL, DO THIS. GIVE
SOMEBODY AROUND YOU A HANDSHAKE, A HIGH FIVE, AND SAY, "I BET I
KNOW, I BET I KNOW HOW MANY DAYS UNTIL GROUND SQUIRREL DAY." AND
THEN DON'T FORGET TO CELEBRATE NATIONAL SHOVEL DAY. ALL RIGHT?
GOD BLESS YOU. GREET SOMEBODY, SHARE YOUR NAME, AND SEE IF YOU
KNOW HOW MANY DAYS UNTIL GROUND SQUIRREL DAY.
(MUSIC)
COME ON, CHURCH. WE'RE GONNA WORSHIP A LITTLE BIT MORE HERE.
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
JESUS, WE WELCOME YOU HERE THIS MORNING. WE LIFT UP YOUR NAME.
WE GIVE ALL GLORY AND HONOR TO YOU. AMEN? AMEN. WHOO!
(CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
JESUS. AND AS I OFTEN SAY, THAT'S HOW WE DO CHURCH.
(CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
AMEN, WE JUST FOLLOW HIS HOLY SPIRIT WHEREVER IT WANTS TO GO.
WELL, IF THIS IS THE FIRST TIME YOU'VE BEEN HERE, WELCOME TO
CHURCH. ALSO WANNA MAKE SURE YOU RECEIVED A BLUE GIFT BAG WHEN
YOU CAME INSIDE THE DOOR. IF YOU DID NOT, PLEASE WAVE YOUR HAND
AT AN USHER, THEY HAVE THOSE AVAILABLE FOR YOU. INSIDE THE
BLUE GIFT BAG, THERE'S LOTS OF GOODIES WE'VE TUCKED IN THERE
FOR YOU, AS WELL AS A BRIGHT ORANGE STAY CONNECTED CARD
INSIDE THERE. PLEASE TEAR THAT OFF, FILL IT OUT, DROP IT IN THE
OFFERING BASKET WHEN IT COMES BY IN JUST A FEW MOMENTS. JUST
WANNA SEND YOU A THANK YOU FOR COMING TO SEE US THIS MORNING.
AND MAKE SURE YOU STAY CONNECTED WITH EVERYTHING WE HAVE GOING ON
AT THE CHURCH. SO IF YOU'RE WATCHING MY LIVE STREAM,
FACEBOOK LIVE, ROKU, YOUTUBE, RUMBLE, OR ANY OF THE OTHER
DIGITAL PLATFORMS WE HAVE OUT THERE, WE WANT TO WELCOME YOU TO
THE SERVICE AS WELL. IF YOU'RE ON ONE VOICE TV, YOU'RE ON THE
RIGHT PLATFORM. IF YOU'RE NOT, GO AHEAD AND GET ON
ONEVOICETV.NET. YOU CAN ALSO DOWNLOAD ONE VOICE TV APP TO
YOUR DEVICES. THAT WOULD BE THE BEST WAY TO GET CONNECTED. YOU
CAN GET ACCESS TO CHAT. YOU CAN ALSO GET ACCESS TO LOTS OF OTHER
GREAT CONTENT THAT'S OUT THERE. ALL OF THOSE ARE LISTED THERE
FOR YOU IN NEW LEVEL. PRIMETIME GAME CHANGERS, FLASHPOINT,
INSIGHT WITH JAMES WARD, YOU CAN ALSO GET THAT. AND YOU CAN WATCH
OUR 24/7 WORSHIP CHANNEL. I'M NOT SURE IF THAT LAST SONG WILL
BE ON THERE JUST YET, BUT YOU KNOW, MAYBE WHEN WE DO IT IN
ACTUAL SERVICE. WE'LL SEE. SO IF YOU WOULD, JUST GIVE ALL OF OUR
GUESTS HERE AN ONLINE HAND AS BOB PETTIGREW COMES. SHANE, WOW,
I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF I CAN DO THIS. WHEN PASTOR SHANE DOES THE
GREETING AND WE'RE NOT DONE WORSHIPING, WE'RE GONNA KEEP
WORSHIPING. WASN'T THAT INCREDIBLE? WELL, YESTERDAY WE
HAD A GREAT OPPORTUNITY HERE AT LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH. I'D LIKE
TO THINK WE OPENED INDEPENDENCE HALL OF OMAHA YESTERDAY. AND WE
HAD PATRIOT ACADEMY REBUILDING LIBERTY CLASS. AND IF YOU WERE
IN THAT CLASS, WOULD YOU PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND? YEAH, LOOK
AROUND. WE HAD A GOOD NUMBER OF PEOPLE HERE YESTERDAY. WE HAD A
GREAT MIX OF LORD OF HOSTS FOLKS AND FOLKS FROM OUT OF TOWN.
THANK YOU FOR COMING. AND WE INVITED ANYBODY THAT WASN'T FROM
LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH TO COME BACK BY AND SEE US. WE MADE IT
CRYSTAL CLEAR TO THEM THAT THIS IS A CHURCH THAT STANDS FOR OUR
NATION. WE HAVE PASTORS THAT ARE ANOINTED IN THIS TIME TO HELP
BUILD OUR COMMUNITIES. AND YESTERDAY, WE GOT AN OPPORTUNITY
TO HEAR FROM RICK GREEN, TIM AND DAVID BARTON, AND MANY OTHER
THOUGHT LEADERS. LANCE WALLNAU WAS ON. AND THE REBUILDING
LIBERTY CLASS THAT WE DID IS KIND OF THE NEXT PHASE OF WHAT
PATRIOT ACADEMY IS DOING. AND THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE IT IS
IT WAS AN ACTIVATION PHASE. SO THERE WAS MORE EDUCATION ABOUT
THE FOUNDING OF OUR NATION. BUT THEN WHAT RICK DID AT THE END OF
ALL FOUR OF THESE MODULES THAT WE WATCHED IS HE GAVE STEPS THAT
ALL OF US CAN DO, CONCRETE STEPS, TO GET INVOLVED IN OUR
COMMUNITY AND NOT JUST MAKE A DIFFERENCE, BUT CONTINUE TO
TRANSFORM. WHAT PASTOR HANK JUST DID AT THE END OF THE WORSHIP
SERVICE IN LIFTING UP AND STRAIGHTENING OUT, YESTERDAY
WERE CONCRETE WAYS THAT WE CAN, WITH THE LORD'S POWER, LIFT AND
STRENGTHEN THIS NATION. AND THAT'S WHAT WE GOT AN
OPPORTUNITY TO DO YESTERDAY. WE'RE GONNA DO THAT AGAIN. WE'RE
GONNA HAVE ANOTHER REBUILDING LIBERTY CLASS AT SOME POINT. I
WANNA THANK OUR MAINTENANCE TEAM AND OUR MEDIA TEAM FOR COMING IN
ON A SATURDAY AND DOING A PHENOMENAL JOB. WE'RE GONNA DO
THAT AGAIN. I'M GONNA TURN IT BACK OVER TO PASTOR BRENDA.
WELL, THANK YOU, BOB, FOR THAT. AND JUST ALONG THOSE LINES, I DO
WANNA REMIND EVERYBODY THAT PASTOR HANK WILL BE THIS WEEK
WITH FLASHPOINT OUT AT PATRIOT ACADEMY. AND SO BE WATCHING THAT
FLASHPOINT LIVE. IT'S GONNA BE AN AMAZING NIGHT. AND HONEY,
YOU'RE THERE FOR BOTH NIGHTS, RIGHT? SO THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
SO MOST OF THE TIME HE DOESN'T DO FRIDAY BECAUSE HE WANTS TO
GET BACK AND BE PREPARED FOR SUNDAY. SO BUT HE WILL THIS WEEK
AND SO BE SURE TO JOIN IN FOR THAT. AND WHAT DID YOU SAY? OH,
YES. AND THEN NEXT I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT THAT. BUT BEFORE WE
GET TO THAT, I HAD A LITTLE LIST HERE, SWEETHEART. THIS WEEK, I
KNOW, RIGHT? OKAY, WHATEVER. SO CUTE. OH, YEAH, WE GOT THIS. WE
GOT THIS. BUT REAL QUICK, I WANT TO REMIND EVERYBODY THIS
SATURDAY, I'LL BE SPEAKING OVER AT THE IOWA LIBERTY FEST IN
COUNCIL BLUFFS, IOWA. I THINK THEY GOT A LITTLE INFO CARD ON
THAT. GUYS, IF YOU HAVE A SLIDE, CAN YOU POP IT UP THERE? JUST
WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. I THINK YOU DO
HAVE TO REGISTER. DO WE HAVE A GRAPHIC? THERE WE GO. SO IT IS
CROSSROADS CHURCH IN COUNCIL BLUFFS. THEY ARE HOSTING THIS
AND I WILL BE THERE AND I'M GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT MY
DAILY DECREES FOR GOVERNMENT BOOK. THEY WANTED ME TO COME AND
SHARE ON HOW TO PRAY FOR AMERICA AND THINGS THAT WE CAN BE
DECLARING. FOLKS, WE ARE IN MIDTERM SEASON ALREADY. WE ARE
RIGHT THERE AND THIS IS THE TIME FOR US TO BE REALLY PRAYING
THROUGH. AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE A COPY OF DAILY DECREES FOR
GOVERNMENT, THIS IS THE TIME TO HAVE ONE, BE USING IT. AND IT'S
NOT JUST GOVERNMENT, THIS IS A BOOK THAT COVERS ALL THINGS, ALL
THINGS PERTINENT TO CIVIC ISSUES. IT COVERS THE FIRST
RESPONDERS. THERE'S ONE IN HERE CALLED PEACE IN THE STREETS.
BOY, DO WE NEED TO BE PRAYING THAT RIGHT NOW. AND THAT'S ONE
THAT WE CAN DECLARE. SO MANY DIFFERENT ONES. THERE IS A
DECLARATION OVER ISRAEL, MANY OF THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH, THINGS
THAT PERTAIN. THERE IS A PRAYER IN HERE, A DECLARATION FOR
TRUSTED AND ELECTIONS, FAIR ELECTIONS. WE NEED TO PRAY FOR
THAT, THAT THERE'S NO FRAUD, ALL OF THESE THINGS. AND SO JUST A
TON OF DIFFERENT PRAYERS. SO I ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET A HOLD OF
IT. AND I'M GONNA GIVE ONE AWAY TO ANYBODY THAT'S HERE IN THE
BUILDING TODAY. SO RAISE YOUR HAND RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE.
YOU WERE THE FASTEST ONE. AND THEN BOB, COME TELL US HOW WE
CAN GIVE A DAILY DECREES FOR GOVERNMENT TO EVERYBODY ON,
SOMEBODY ONLINE, NOT EVERYBODY. WE'D HAVE THOUSANDS. SO, OH
YEAH, NO, GO AHEAD. AND IF YOU'RE FOLLOWING THROUGH OUR 21
DAYS OF PRAYER AND FASTING, MANY OF THESE DECLARATIONS ARE IN
THIS YEAR'S 21 DAYS OF PRAYER AND FASTING. THEY'RE VERY
POWERFUL. PASTOR BRENDA, I'M ON YOUTUBE. GOOD. AND I FOUND, WHO
DID I FIND? I FOUND 3D MINISTRY. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING ONLINE.
WE APPRECIATE YOU, WE LOVE YOU, AND YOU'RE GONNA GET A COPY OF
PASTOR BRENDA'S DAILY DECREES FOR DIVINE HEALING. AMEN, YES,
YES, YES, YES. AND I DO HAVE, I GIVE 'EM ONE OF GOVERNMENT TOO.
LET'S JUST GIVE ONE OF EACH, 'CAUSE I'M GONNA GIVE THIS AWAY
TOO, BOB. AND THIS IS DAILY DECREES FOR DIVINE HEALING. AND
IF YOU'VE NOT GOTTEN THIS BOOK, I DO ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET A HOLD
OF IT. I'LL BE COMING OUT WITH DAILY DECREES FOR COMMANDING
PEACE. BUT I FEEL LIKE THE HEALING ONE NEEDS TO BE IN
EVERYBODY'S HANDS. AND I DID THIS ONE A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN
SOME OF THE OTHER DECREE BOOKS. I ACTUALLY DID A SHORT TEACHING
ON HEALING IN HERE. AND THEN JUST KIND OF WHAT IS GOD'S
COVENANT OF HEALING. AND EVEN IF YOU'VE READ BEFORE, OR YOU THINK
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS, I ENCOURAGE YOU TO READ IT BECAUSE
WE CAN ALWAYS INCREASE OUR KNOWLEDGE AND OUR REVELATION AND
IT WILL HELP YOUR FAITH. AND THEN I COVERED, I WORKED WITH
DR. AVERY JACKSON. I RAN THIS BY A BRAIN SURGEON. I WANTED TO
MAKE SURE, I DIDN'T TRY TO SOUND TOO MEDICAL, BUT I WANTED TO
MAKE SURE MY STUFF WAS ON TRACK. I COVER PRAYERS IN HERE FOR ALL
KINDS OF PHYSICAL AILMENTS AND CONDITIONS, AND CHANCES ARE,
JUST A LITTLE OF EVERYTHING IS SPRINKLED IN. AND SO THERE'S A
BUNCH OF DECREES IN HERE. I MEAN, I SPEAK AGAINST CANCERS,
BLOOD DISORDERS, BLOOD DISEASES, PAINS, ACHES, ARTHRITIS IS ONE
THAT'S IN THERE. MANY, MANY THINGS THAT ARE IN HERE,
EMOTIONAL DISORDERS, PEOPLE WITH BEHAVIORAL DISORDERS, I HIT ON
THAT. SO LET ME GIVE ONE TO SOMEBODY. ALL RIGHT, I SAW A RED
JACKET RIGHT THERE, FIRST ONE. IT'S JUST CORNER OF MY EYE. AND
THEN BOB, LET'S GIVE ONE TO SOMEBODY ONLINE. WE'RE GONNA
GIVE ONE TO VERNIA BROWN, 4925. THANK YOU ALSO FOR WATCHING ON
YOUTUBE. OUR MODERATOR WILL PUT INSTRUCTIONS IN THE CHAT ON HOW
YOU CAN CONTACT US, AND WE'LL GET YOU THOSE BOOKS THIS WEEK.
ALL RIGHT, GIVE EVERYBODY A HAND. SO JOIN ME, IOWA LIBERTY
FEST. IT'LL BE SUPER FUN. GO OUT AND REGISTER AND COME ON OUT.

PHONE, OUR VERY FIRST OPENING THE HEAVENS WAS ACTUALLY IN
1999, AND I MADE THE FLYER FOR IT. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT, TASHA?
I MADE THE FLYER. I THINK I NEED TO SHOW THAT NEXT WEEK. SOMEBODY
REMIND ME. I'M GONNA BRING IT, WE'RE GONNA PUT IT UP. IT WAS A
VERY FIRST, AND I MADE IT IN MICROSOFT PUBLISHER. IT WAS
IMPRESSIVE. AND SO, IN AGENCY, WE GO WAY BACK. BUT WE'VE BEEN
DOING THESE FOR MANY, MANY YEARS NOW, AND IT'S PRETTY EXCITING.
SO GET THE DATES ON. THEY'LL PUT THE DATES FOR OTH UP THERE SO
YOU CAN GET THAT ON YOUR CALENDAR. WE'LL BE BACK DOWN AT
THE MID-AMERICA CENTER. IT'S GONNA BE AN AWESOME TIME, AMEN?
ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA CALL AN AUDIBLE ON OUR SCRIPTURE TODAY.
PUT UP, I GAVE THEM OTHER SCRIPTURES, BUT OUR SCRIPTURE
FOR THE OFFERING. JUST AFTER WHAT PASTOR WAS MINISTERING UP
HERE, PASTOR SHANE WAS SINGING, WE ARE GONNA GO TO ISAIAH 41 AND
VERSE 10. CAN YOU GUYS THROW THAT UP? I JUST FELT LIKE THE
HOLY SPIRIT PROMPTED ME OVER THERE. I HAD TO LOOK IT UP IN MY
PHONE TO MAKE SURE I HAD THE RIGHT VERSE. BUT HERE'S WHAT IT
SAYS. IT SAYS, "FEAR THOU NOT." AND THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT
CAN CAUSE US TO BE AFRAID, AREN'T THERE? A LOT OF THINGS
THAT COULD GIVE YOU ANXIETY IF YOU LET IT. BUT IT SAYS, "FEAR
THOU NOT." SO THAT'S A CHOICE, RIGHT? IS THAT A CHOICE? THAT'S
SOMETHING WE ARE TOLD BY GOD TO DO. "FEAR THOU NOT, FOR I AM
WITH THEE." ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT. GOD IS WITH YOU. SO IF
YOU'D HONE IN ON THAT, I WOULD HONE IN ON THAT. WE WOULD
REMEMBER THAT THE LORD IS THERE WORKING FOR US. SO I'M WITH YOU.
SO REMIND YOURSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT OR WHEN YOU'RE
WALKING OUT AN ISSUE OR WALKING OUT A PROBLEM, KNOW GOD, YOU'RE
WITH ME. YOU ARE WITH ME. BE, AND I LOVE THIS PART, BE NOT
DISMAYED. YOU KNOW, TO BE DISMAYED MEANS TO BE IN A PLACE
WHERE YOU JUST FLAT DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. YOU ARE JUST IN A
PLACE WHERE GOD, I DON'T KNOW WHAT, IF I SHOULD GO TO THE
RIGHT OR THE LEFT OR GO STRAIGHT, I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T
KNOW THE ANSWER OF THE NEXT DECISION I'M GONNA MAKE. AND
GOD, IT SEEMS LIKE, AND IT'S JUST WHAT PASTOR WAS SAYING UP
HERE, YOU'RE IN A PLACE JUST LIKE PETER, YOU'RE LIKE, LORD, I
NEED HELP, RIGHT? OR THE WOMAN THAT COULD NOT STRAIGHTEN
HERSELF. OKAY, DON'T BE DISMAYED. DON'T GET TO A PLACE
WHERE YOU'RE JUST LIKE THROWING UP YOUR HANDS AND THROWING IN
THE TOWEL. HE SAID, "FOR I AM YOUR GOD. "I WILL," AND I'M
WRITING ON THIS PART IN THE COMMANDING PEACE BOOK RIGHT NOW,
"I WILL STRENGTHEN YOU." YOU KNOW WHAT, THAT'S A NEWSFLASH
THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO WORK ALL THE TIME TO STRENGTHEN OURSELF.
WE DON'T HAVE TO STRENGTHEN OURSELF. NOW, THERE'S THINGS THE
BIBLE COMMANDS US TO DO, RIGHT? SO IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW, YOU
CAN'T JUST LAY THERE AND, YOU KNOW, SQUALL AND BALL AND EAT
ICE CREAM AND POTATO CHIPS AND HOPE THAT, YOU KNOW, GOD'S GONNA
COME THROUGH. YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT TO BE, THAT'S NOT THE
POSTURE OF MINE WE'RE TO BE IN. BUT SOMETIMES HAVE YOU EVER BEEN
FIGHTING AND YOU JUST THROW UP YOUR HANDS? I HEARD A STORY OF A
MINISTER ONE TIME. HE HAD BEEN BELIEVING GOD. HE WAS WANTING TO
BE HEALED OF CANCER. AND HE BELIEVED AND HE SPOKE AND HE
CONFESSED AND HE SOUGHT GOD AND DID ALL THE THINGS THAT HE WAS
SUPPOSED TO DO AND THAT THE WORD COMMANDS US TO DO, RIGHT? AND IT
JUST SEEMS LIKE IT WASN'T BUDGING AND IT WASN'T GETTING
BETTER. AND HE FINALLY, ONE DAY HE SAID, HE SAID, "LORD, I DON'T
KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO." THAT'S GOOD, RIGHT? HE JUST SAID, "GOD,
I'VE DONE EVERYTHING I KNOW. NOW IT'S UP TO YOU." AND HE THREW
HIS HANDS UP AND SAID, "GOD, I JUST GIVE THIS OUT TO YOU." AND
HE GOT HEALED AFTER THAT. SO EVEN THOUGH WE'RE SUPPOSED TO
TAKE THE POSTURE OF FAITH, WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DO ALL THE THINGS,
SPEAK THE RIGHT WORDS. WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT. BUT IT'S
ALSO GOD'S DEAL, AND WE NEED TO TRUST HIM. MAYBE IT'S YOUR
FINANCES TODAY AS YOU GET READY TO GIVE. YOU KNOW, GOD, I'VE
BEEN TITHING. I HAVE BEEN GIVING. I'VE SOWED SEED. GOD, I
NEED TO SEE SOME HARVESTS. WELL, THAT'S WHAT THIS VERSE IS ABOUT.
BE NOT DISMAYED, FOR I'M YOUR GOD. YOU KNOW, LET GOD DO IT.
THERE'S THAT OLD SAYING, YOU KNOW, LET GO AND LET GOD. WE
HAVE ALL THESE LITTLE SAYINGS THAT PEOPLE USE. LET GO, LET
GOD, JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL, YOU KNOW. ALL OF THAT, ALL OF THAT
IS MEANT TO SAY, GOD, IT'S IN YOUR HANDS. YOU'VE GOT TO TAKE
CARE OF IT. HE SAID, I'LL STRENGTHEN YOU. IN OTHER WORDS,
STRENGTHEN YOU SO YOU CAN STAND. YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE'S
INTERESTING. ON ONE SIDE, EPHESIANS SIX WILL SAY, WELL,
STAND, STAND THEREFORE. AND YOUR LEGS ARE SHAKY. STAND, STAND
THEREFORE. AND THEN GOD TURNS IT AROUND AND SAYS, I'LL STRENGTHEN
YOU SO YOU CAN KEEP STANDING. AND I AND THIS IS THE PART THAT
HIT ME WHEN PASTOR WAS TALKING I WILL HELP YOU. COME ON, SOMEBODY
JUST SAY IT RIGHT NOW. SAY, LORD, HELP. MAYBE YOU NEED HELP
WITH YOUR MONEY, YOUR FINANCES. YOU NEED GOD TO HELP YOU. YOU
FEEL LIKE YOU ARE SWALLOWED UP IN DEBT. MAYBE YOU'RE IN A PLACE
WHERE YOU CANNOT PAY ALL THE BILLS, OR YOU'RE VERY DESTITUTE,
AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR NEXT MEAL'S COMING FROM. THAT'S
A GOOD PRAYER TO PRAY RIGHT THERE. LORD, HELP. COME ON, SAY
IT ONE MORE TIME. LORD, HELP. LORD, HELP. AND HE SAID, "I WILL
HELP YOU AND UPHOLD YOU "WITH THE RIGHT HAND OF MY RIGHTEOUS."
ONE TRANSLATION SAYS, "MY RIGHTEOUS RIGHT HAND." YOU KNOW
WHAT THE RIGHT HAND IS? THAT'S WHY I COULD NEVER BE ON THE LEFT
POLITICALLY, JUST FOR WHAT IT REPRESENTS IN SCRIPTURE. OKAY,
EVERYBODY THAT WAS ON GOD'S RIGHT HAND WENT TO HEAVEN. THE
ONES ON THE LEFT WERE CAST INTO OUTER DARKNESS. I JUST WOULDN'T
WANNA BE THAT. I HAD A CHRISTIAN ONE TIME THAT POSTED ON THE
INTERNET, THEY SAID, "I'M A LEFT LIBERAL AND I'M A CHRISTIAN." I
SAID, "WELL, YOU BETTER READ YOUR BIBLE, CHICK, "BECAUSE
THAT'S NOT A GOOD SPOT TO BE, "IS IN GOD'S LEFT HAND." THE
RIGHT HAND OF FAVOR. YOU KNOW YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT HAND OF
FAVOR TODAY. THAT'S A REASON TO REJOICE. SO WHEREVER YOU ARE NOW
IS NOT WHERE YOU'RE GONNA LAND. YOU'RE GONNA LAND IN A BETTER
SPOT, AMEN? ALL RIGHT, WELL, I JUST FELT TO GIVE THAT TO YOU,
ENCOURAGE YOU WITH THAT. AND REMEMBER, OUR SCRIPTURE FOR THE
YEAR HAS BEEN PROVERBS 11:8, YOU'RE COMING OUT OF
TROUBLE. SO BE ENCOURAGED WITH THAT TODAY. LET'S PUT OUR GIVING
INFORMATION UP ON THE SCREEN. I WANT TO GET PASTOR UP HERE TO
SHARE WHAT HE'S GOING TO SHARE. AND ALL THE INFORMATION'S OUT
THERE, THE MOBILE APP, TEXT TO GIVE, AND IT'S SO FRIENDLY
TO USE. SO USE ALL THOSE PLATFORMS. AND THANK YOU FOR
THOSE OF YOU THAT SEND THINGS IN THE MAIL, YOUR OFFERINGS, YOUR
GIFTS, YOUR TIES. SOME OF YOU HAVE BEEN SO VERY COMMITTED AND
GENEROUS. AND WE NEED REGULAR SUPPORTERS. WE NEED MONTHLY
PEOPLE SO WE CAN CONTINUE TO DO WHAT WE DO. AND SO THANK YOU FOR
ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE BEEN OUT THERE SUPPORTING OVTV AND THE
BUILDING PROJECT. I KEEP SAYING WE HAVE MORE STUFF TO DO THAT'S
ON THE RUNWAY. SO LET'S GET THAT BUILDING FUND UP AND GET IT
FILLED. AND LET'S JUST HAVE THE WAR CHEST READY FOR WHENEVER GOD
COMES CALLING. AND BY THE WAY, THOSE OF YOU THAT MAYBE MISSED
LAST WEEK, I TALKED ABOUT THE CALL CENTER, NOT OUR CALL
CENTER, BUT THERE WAS A CALL CENTER THAT WAS IN OUR
HEADQUARTERS BUILDING BACK HERE, THE BRICK BUILDING WHERE U.S.
BANK IS. THEY HAVE MOVED OUT AND IT WAS THE END OF THEIR LEASE.
THEY CHOSE NOT TO RENEW, WHICH BY THE WAY, AND I DON'T HAVE TO
SAY THIS OFTEN, WE HAVE DONE SO WELL BY OUR TENANTS THAT HAVE
BEEN IN OUR BUILDINGS THAT WE INHERITED REALLY ALL OF THEM.
THEY CAME WITH THE BUILDING. IF YOU BUY THE BUILDING, YOU GET
THE TENANT. AND THAT'S HOW IT WORKS, RIGHT, IN REAL ESTATE.
AND, BUT WE JUST HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO BLESS SO MANY OF
THEM. SOME OF THEM WE, YOU KNOW, IN FACT, SHIRLEY'S, WHEN THEY
WERE HERE, ANYBODY GO BACK TO REMEMBER WHEN SHIRLEY'S WAS IN
OUR BUILDING? I MEAN, THAT WAS THE OLD DAYS. AND THEY WERE IN
THAT SKINNY LITTLE SPACE, WHICH IS NOW OVER BY THE STUDIO. AND
THEY, WE PRAYED FOR THEM TO GET AN UPGRADE AND THEY GOT AN
UPGRADE AND PASTOR FELTON, HIS SPIRIT, HE GAVE THEM FOUR MONTHS
OF FREE RENT FOR THAT TRANSITIONAL PERIOD. AND WE WERE
ABLE TO HELP SO MANY, BUT THEY HAVE GONE. AND SO THANK YOU.
YOUR SUPPORT OF THE BUILDING AND THE CAMPUS HELPS MAKE UP FOR
THAT RENT THAT LEFT. SO THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT. AND WE ARE
SO GRATEFUL. AND THEY DID A GOOD JOB AS TENANTS. THEY ALWAYS PAID
ON TIME. WE HAVE HAD GOOD TENANTS THAT HAVE DONE GOOD
THINGS. SO THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING AS THAT GOES. AND YOU
KNOW WHAT? GOD'S BUILDING ANYWAY. GOD'S GOT TO PLAN IT.
PASTOR BRENDA, ARE YOU GOING TO RENT IT OUT? THE LORD MAY HAVE
NEED OF IT, JUST LIKE HE DID THOSE DONKEYS IN THE DAY OF
JESUS. SO LET'S SEE WHAT GOD WANTS TO DO. IF WE'RE GOING TO
REMODEL IT, WE NEED THE FUNDS. SO GIVE TO IT. AMEN. ALL RIGHT,
WELL, LET'S JUST SAY, STAND UP IF YOU'VE GOT YOUR OFFERING
READY. HOLD UP YOUR PHONE. IF YOU'RE GIVING ELECTRONICALLY OR
YOUR ENVELOPE. AND IF YOU'VE NOT DONE YOUR FIRST FRUITS OFFERING,
THAT IS STILL OUT THERE AS WELL. SO YOU CAN GIVE TO THAT, BUT
HOLD IT UP HIGH. AND I WANT YOU TO NOT BE DISMAYED TODAY. DON'T
BE IN A PLACE WHERE YOU WONDER HOW IT'S ALL GOING TO TURN OUT.
YOU JUST STAND THERE AND KNOW THAT GOD IS GOING TO HELP YOU
AND STRENGTHEN YOU. SO FATHER, I THANK YOU FOR EVERY GIVER UNDER
THE SOUND OF MY VOICE. I THANK YOU YOU'RE HELPING THEM. EVEN
WHEN IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE'S AN END TO THE LONG ROAD,
I THANK YOU THAT YOU ARE THE GOD THAT PROMISED THAT YOU WOULD
STRENGTHEN US AND HELP US. SO LORD, WE LEAN INTO THAT TODAY.
WE PULL ON THAT TODAY AS WE GIVE, AND WE JUST SAY THANK YOU,
LORD, FOR YOUR FAITHFULNESS TO UPHOLD US AND BRING US THROUGH
AS WE GIVE TODAY IN JESUS' NAME, AMEN AND AMEN. ALL RIGHT, LET'S
DO OUR DECLARATION, MINA, WITH ALL YOUR HEART. WE DECLARE THE
CAMPUS AND MINISTRY OF LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH SHALL BE INCREASED,
EXPANDED, AND DEBT-FREE. WE DECREE IT SHALL HAPPEN WITHOUT
DELAY. WE SAY TO EVERY HEAVENLY ASSIGNMENT, BE BUILT UP AND
FINISHED. WE SAY THAT WE HAVE ALL THE FINANCES NEEDED FOR THE
LORD IS BUILDING THIS HOUSE. WE HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH EXCESS AND
OVERFLOW. AND LORD, YOU ARE PROVIDING SEED TO THE SOWER. WE
CALL UPON YOU, LORD OF HOSTS, TO BRING FORTH HEAVENLY ASSISTANCE
AND RAISE UP MULTITUDES OF PEOPLE THAT SHALL GIVE
ABUNDANTLY TO THIS WORK. WE PROPHESIED THAT WE SHALL
QUADRUPLE, QUADRUPLE, AND THEN WE WILL QUADRUPLE AGAIN. WE
DECLARE NEW THINGS NOW. WE DECREE MINISTRY AND CAMPUS BE
EXPANDED NOW. SHOUT REAL BIG AS YOU GIVE, AND LET'S WELCOME
PASTOR HANK. HALLELUJAH. ALL RIGHT, YOU CAN BE SEATED,
USHERS, YOU CAN USH. AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR GIVING ONLINE AS
WELL. WE'RE SO THANKFUL FOR YOUR FAITHFULNESS AS WELL. SO GOT A
LOT HAPPENING, RIGHT? SO WE'RE EXCITED. I AM FOR NEXT WEEK AS
WELL WHEN ANDREW SEDRA AND HIS WIFE, NOLEEN, ARE GOING TO BE
HERE. AND THEY'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO STAY FOR A COUPLE DAYS, AND
WE'RE GOING TO FILM SOME NEW LEVEL SHOWS MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
AND THEN ON TUESDAY NIGHT, HE'S GOING TO BE IN THE STUDIO WITH
ME TO DO FLASHPOINT. SO THAT'LL BE A LOT OF FUN, AND WE'RE GOING
TO COVER A LOT OF GROUND. IT'S GOING TO BE A BUSY WEEK, AND
NEXT WEEK TOO. BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR PRAYERS. AND THEN LAST I
HEARD, PASTOR BRENDA, YOU ARE PREACHING AND MINISTERING ON
WEDNESDAY, CORRECT? WOW, CAN'T WAIT. DIDN'T SHE DO A FANTASTIC
JOB LAST WEEK? AND I APPRECIATE YOU FOR GIVING ME A LITTLE
GRACE. SHE'S ON A BOOK DEADLINE, AND I AM TOO, WHERE I GOTTA GET
THIS BOOK, BECOMING A FRIEND OF GOD, DONE. AND THAT'S THE ONLY
THING IS, YOU KNOW, IS I HATE THE DEADLINES OF IT, 'CAUSE YOU
WANNA BE ABLE TO WRITE, BUT THEY'VE GOTTA BE ABLE TO
SCHEDULE IT, THE PUBLISHER. SO I GET ALL OF THAT, BUT IT'S COMING
ALONG. SO I APPRECIATE YOUR PRAYERS. ALL RIGHT, ANYTHING
ELSE? I'M TRYING TO THINK IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE WE NEED.
OH, I DO WANNA SAY THIS. PASTOR DOUG, HE WAS LETTING ME KNOW
THAT IN MARCH, MAN, WE'RE GONNA HAVE OUR MEN'S DAY CONFERENCE.
OH, YEAH, LET ME HEAR THE MEN GRUNT. SORRY, LADIES. YEAH,
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A BREAKFAST. AND THEN WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO IS
WE'RE GONNA BRING BACK SOMETHING. WE ARE GOING TO
BRING, AND I'M GONNA JUST SEE HOW MANY OF YOU MEN REMEMBER,
AND THOSE OF YOU ONLINE. DO YOU ALL REMEMBER LIKE 20 YEARS AGO,
WE DID A STAYING ALIVE MEN'S CONFERENCE, DANCE CONFERENCE.
YOU REMEMBER THAT? WE GOT TO, AND YOU WEAR DISCO, 70S OUTFIT.
HOW MANY REMEMBER THAT? YEAH, AND SO, YEAH, SO WE ARE GOING TO
BRING THAT BACK. AND SOME OF US THAT HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR 20
YEARS AND OLDER, INSTEAD OF STAYING ALIVE, IT MIGHT BE
CALLED STILL ALIVE OR SOMETHING. SO WE'RE GONNA INCORPORATE THAT
THEME, STAYING ALIVE FOR SOME OF THE MEN, STILL ALIVE FOR US THAT
WERE THERE. AND HERE'S THE THING, WE HAD A DANCE CONTEST
BACK THEN. SOLOMON, I THINK YOU AND LES AND DODJI, YOU GUYS WERE
ROCKING IT. I WASN'T ALLOWED TO ENTER, BUT THIS YEAR I AM. THIS
YEAR I AM. AND WE'RE GONNA PUT A DANCE FLOOR UP HERE, A DISCO
BALL. HOW DO YOU HANG A DISCO BALL UP HERE? AND LAST YEAR WE
HAD OUR BEST DISCO MOVES BECAUSE DISCO WAS IN THE BIBLE. PEOPLE
DON'T REALIZE THAT BECAUSE WHEN MOSES WAS UP BEFORE GOD AND THE
PEOPLE WERE CORRUPTING THEMSELVES, DISCO'S HEAVENLY
BECAUSE THEY HAD THEIR OWN MUSIC AND GOD SAID, "MOSES, GET DOWN."
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
THAT'S WHAT HE SAID, "GET DOWN." AND MOSES WENT, "WHAT?" HE GO,
AND THEN GOD GAVE HIM INSTRUCTIONS. DISCO THIS WAY,
DISCO THAT WAY, AND GET DOWN. AND SO THE BIBLE SAYS THAT MOSES
GOT DOWN. SO THAT'S THE DISCO REVELATION. BUT WOULDN'T IT BE
GREAT? SO ANYWAY, I GOTTA GET BACK TO THIS. SO REAL QUICK,
THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, I'LL PREACH IN JUST A MINUTE. SO
WE HAD A DANCE FLOOR, WE HAD A DISCO BALL, AND THE GUYS WERE
BUSTING THEIR MOVES, DOING THEIR STUFF. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT SOME
OF THEM THAT BUST THEIR MOVES. THEY MAY BUST SOMETHING ELSE,
BUT WE'LL PRAY OVER ALL THE MEN THAT ARE A LOT OLDER. MY WIFE
SAID, "PLEASE DON'T DO ANY BREAK DANCING "AND STUFF LIKE THAT."
BUT WE FORGOT TO PUSH RECORD, AND SOME OF THE MEN HAVE BEEN,
LIKE ALMOST ON A YEARLY BASIS, "PASTOR HANK, I WANT TO REDO MY
DANCE MOVES." SO WE'RE GONNA GIVE THEM THE
OPPORTUNITY. HOW MANY THINK THAT WOULD BE FUN?
(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)
HOW MANY THINK OFFICER HERRICK NEEDS TO COME AND BUST THE BEAT?
ALL RIGHT, ANY OF YOU GUYS GONNA TRY IT? YEAH, SO BRING YOUR BEST
OUTFITS. WE'RE GONNA HAVE A GOOD TIME. OH, IT'S MARCH 14TH, SO
YOU GOT PLENTY OF TIME TO WATCH SOME OF MY PREACHING WHERE I
DANCED, AND YOU CAN DEVELOP YOUR OWN, OKAY? BRENDA, I AM GONNA
ENTER THE CONTEST. HOW MANY WOULD LIKE THAT? OKAY, MAYBE I
SHOULDN'T BECAUSE Y'ALL ARE NERVOUS THAT YOU MIGHT LOSE. MY
WIFE SAID JUST BE SMART, ALL RIGHT. YOU HAVE A VIDEO OF ME
DISCO DANCING? NO, YOU DO NOT. DO YOU REALLY? WHO IS BEHIND
THAT? IS THAT THE FAKE NEWS? IS THAT A HACKER? WHAT IS THAT? PUT
UP ON THE SCREEN. IS IT OF ME OR WHO IS IT? WHO
IS IT OF? TYPE IT UP. I WANT TO SEE IT. OKAY. OH.
(MUSIC)
ALL RIGHT, CUT IT! CUT IT! CUT IT! CUT IT! CUT IT! ALL RIGHT.
(APPLAUSE)
ALL RIGHT. I MEAN, I STILL HAVE IT. DID YOU ALL SEE THAT? HOW
MANY OF YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS JOHN TRAVOLTA?
THAT WAS PASTOR SHANE DOING THAT.
BUT HOW MANY OF YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS JOHN TRAVOLTA,
THAT WAS WALKING THE SIDEWALK THERE, YOU KNOW?
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
WE'RE GONNA REDO THAT. OH MY GOODNESS.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
DID YOU LIKE THAT? IN THE COMMENTS IF YOU LIKED
THAT. HOW MANY THOUGHT THAT WAS JOHN TRAVOLTA
THERE, HUH? OPEN YOUR BIBLES TO ISAIAH 43. I FEEL
LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE LORD WANTS TO INTERRUPT THAT, YOU KNOW.
BUT I GOT SOME SPECIAL PLAN, MEN, MARCH 14TH. OKAY, I MIGHT
PRERECORD MY DANCE MOVES. HOW'S THAT SOUND? IT'S LIKE I CAN'T
EVEN SAY ANYTHING NOW AFTER THAT. IT'S LIKE HOW DO I PREACH?
WHAT'S THAT, LADY T? YOU LIKE, THAT WAS OKAY. I MEAN, LADY T
LOOKED OVER AT SOLOMON AND SAID, "DON'T ENTER AFTER THAT." HE WAS
JUST, Y'ALL NERVOUS OVER THERE, AREN'T YOU SOLOMON? OKAY, ISAIAH
43. HOW MANY BELIEVE WE'RE IN A NEW SEASON? AFTER THAT VIDEO, I
AM. BUT HOW MANY BELIEVE WE'RE IN A NEW SEASON? I REALLY
BELIEVE IT. AND I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS, I WAS COUNTING HOW
MANY DAYS UNTIL SPRING, 'CAUSE I DON'T LIKE WINTER. AND I STARTED
THINKING TO MYSELF, YOU KNOW WHAT GOD, WE'RE ENTERING INTO A
NEW SEASON IN A FEW WEEKS, YOU KNOW, SPRING, BUT I SENSE THAT
THAT SEASON OF SPRING, OF THINGS BEGINNING TO BLOSSOM, MANIFEST,
COME TO PASS, ARE AMONG US. AND SO LOOK AT WHAT GOD HAS PROMISED
IN HIS WORD. ISAIAH 43, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, REMEMBER
NOT THE FORMER THINGS OF OLD. STOP RIGHT THERE. THERE'S A
REASON THAT JESUS SAID, DON'T PUT YOUR HAND TO THE PLOW AND
LOOK BACK, OR YOU'RE NOT FIT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD. HOW MANY OF
YOU HAVE EVER BEEN IN A CAR WITH A TAXI DRIVER THAT KEPT LOOKING
OVER THEIR SHOULDER? I DID IN NEW YORK CITY, I'LL NEVER FORGET
IT. AND HE KEPT LOOKING OVER AND HE KEPT, NO, ACTUALLY IT WASN'T
NEW YORK CITY, IT WAS ARIZONA. EXCUSE ME. AND I HAD FLOWN DOWN
TO WATCH NEBRASKA PLAY IN THE, IS IT THE FIESTA BOWL? IS THAT
WHAT'S DOWN THERE? AND HE KEPT LOOKING BACK BECAUSE I HAD TAKEN
A STEP OF FAITH WITH ANOTHER GUY IN THE CHURCH, AND WE DECIDED
THAT WE WERE GONNA GO DOWN THERE AND WE WERE GONNA GET TICKETS.
IN FACT, IT WAS LITERALLY ON Y2K. AND IT WAS JUST HIM AND ME
THAT WERE THE ONLY TWO PASSENGERS THE NIGHT OF Y2K. WE
HELD A PRAYER SERVICE. I WENT TO THE AIRPORT, NOBODY WAS IN THE
AIRPORT. AND WE WERE TOSSING A NERF BALL DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE
AIRPLANE. AND THEY WERE ALL SCARED AND IT WAS A LOT OF FUN.
BUT ANYWAY, WE GET THERE, WE GET IN THE TAXI AND THE TAXI DRIVER
GOES, "WHAT ARE YOU HERE FOR?" WE SAID, "WE'RE HERE FOR A
GAME." "OR DO YOU HAVE A PLACE TO STAY?" "NOPE, WE DON'T HAVE A
PLACE TO STAY." AND HE KEPT TURNING AROUND AND HE KEPT
SAYING THIS, "MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME THAT YOU MAKE GREAT BAD
MISTAKE. ALL THE HOTELS ARE FILLED UP IN THE AREA." I SAID,
"JUST DRIVE. WE'RE GONNA FIND A PLACE. I WANT ONE, TAKE ME BY
THE STADIUM." "ALL RIGHT, MY NEIGHBOR, MY COMMON SENSE TELLS
ME THAT YOU ARE MAKING BAD MISTAKE, EVEN WORSE MISTAKE,
GOING TO A PLACE THAT IS NEXT TO THE STADIUM. THERE ARE SO
ROUTE." I SAID, "WELL, DRIVE." "MY COMMENTS?" I SAID, "DRIVE."
SO THEN HE SAYS, "NOW, ARE YOU GOING TO THE GAME?" I SAID,
"YEAH." "OH, MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME." AND HE'S GOING ALL
OVER THE PLACE. BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK, THE POINT IS, IF YOU LOOK
BACK, YOU'RE GOING TO PUT OTHERS AND YOURSELF IN DANGER
POTENTIALLY. SO HE SAYS TO ME, HE SAYS, "DO YOU HAVE TICKETS?"
"NO." "OH, MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME YOU WASTED MONEY. NO HOTEL,
NO TICKETS, NO GOOD, NO GOOD. YOU MAKE GREAT MISTAKE, MY
COMMON SENSE." I SAID, "WELL, YOU CAN KEEP SAYING YOUR COMMON
SENSE, BUT I PRAYED AND I'M GONNA HAVE TICKETS ON THE 50YARD
LINE." AND WHEN IT CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH, I'M LIKE, "WHAT DID
YOU JUST SAY?" AND SO I STARTED WITNESSING JESUS. "OH, I DON'T
BELIEVE IN THAT." I SAID, "WELL, YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE JESUS GET ME
A HOTEL, "AND YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE ME GET 50 YARD LINE TICKETS.
"MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME THAT YOU ARE PRAYING "TO THE WRONG
GOD." I SAID, "MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME YOU NEED TO BE QUIET
"BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA SEE THAT JESUS ANSWERS PRAYER, "AND THAT
I ALREADY PRAYED ABOUT IT, "AND GOD'S GOT SOMETHING PLANNED."
ORDER MY COMMON, I SAID, "BE QUIET AND DRIVE." I DID. SO WE
GET TO THE HOTEL, ACROSS FROM THE FIESTA BOWL, AND HE'S
CARRYING OUR BAGS IN, AND HE'S SAYING, "EVERYONE, MY COMMON
SENSE TELLS ME "THAT HE'S NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET THE
ALTAR ROOM, "AND HE THINKS HE'S GOING TO GET TICKETS," AND HE'S
MOCKING ME. HE SAYS THAT HE'S A CHRISTIAN, AND HE'S DOING BLAH,
BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. FINALLY, THE GUY BEHIND THE COUNTER GOES,
"HEY, HEY, HEY, WHAT'D YOU SAY? "YOU NEED A ROOM?" I SAID,
"YES." HE SAID, "YOU NEED TICKETS?" "YEAH." HE GOES, "YOU
WON'T BELIEVE THIS." I SAID, "MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME "WE'RE
ABOUT TO GET A BLESSING." AND THE MAN IS LOOKING AT ME GOING.
AND I SAID, "TELL ME WHAT?" HE GOES, "WE JUST HAD A
CANCELLATION "LIKE FIVE MINUTES BEFORE YOU CAME IN." HE GOES,
"NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE A ROOM," HE GOES, "BUT I'LL GIVE IT," HE
GOES, "IT'S ONE OF THE BEST ONES HERE." HE GOES, "I'LL GIVE IT TO
YOU FOR A REGULAR ROOM." MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME, DUDE,
YOU'RE PRAYING TO THE WRONG THING. AND HE GOES, AND BY THE
WAY, IT COMES WITH 50 YARD LINE TICKETS.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
SO THE GUY GOES, "OOH, OOH, OOH."
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
AND I LOOKED AT HIM AND I SAID, YOU SEE, SOMETIMES YOU JUST
GOTTA KNOW HOW TO PRAY TO THE RIGHT GOD.
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
BUT I HAD A HOTEL ROOM, 50 YARD LINE TICKETS, YEAH. PASTOR,
WOULD YOU DO THAT AGAIN? PROBABLY NOT, I'VE GOTTEN
SMARTER. NO, BRENDA WOULDN'T LET ME DO THAT AGAIN. BUT YOU
REMEMBER WHEN I CALLED? IT WAS GREAT. BUT ANYWAY, MY COMMON
SENSE TELLS ME. SO MY COMMON SENSE TELLS ME, REMEMBER NOT FOR
THE MANY THINGS OF OLD. OKAY, DON'T BE LOOKING BACK. DON'T GET
IN YOUR HEAD AT ALL, I JUST HAPPEN TO COME INTO A SENSE THAT
YOU DON'T HOLD ON IN FAITH IN YOUR SPIRIT TO WHAT GOD HAS
SAID. NOW LET'S LOOK AT WHAT THE LORD SAYS. DON'T REHEARSE FORMER
THINGS. THERE COMES A POINT, QUIT TALKING ABOUT THAT JOB THAT
YOU WISH YOU HAD, THE HOUSE THAT YOU COULD HAVE HAD, THE
RELATIONSHIP YOU'RE STILL HEARTBROKEN OVER. WELL, THERE'S
A REASON. GOD'S TRYING TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING BETTER IN THE
HOUSE, IN THE CAR OR WHATEVER THE SITUATION IS. SOMETIMES WE
ARE SO BUSY REHEARSING THE FORMER THINGS AND WHAT DIDN'T
WORK OUT, WHAT SHOULDA WORKED OUT, WHAT COULDA BEEN, SHOULDA
BEEN, MIGHTA BEEN, MY ACHY, BREAKY HEART, WHATEVER IT IS, MY
DISAPPOINTMENTS, MY FRUSTRATIONS, RIGHT, THAT WE
AREN'T RECOGNIZING A NEW SEASON. WE HAVE TO BE READY IN SEASON
AND OUT OF SEASON. WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE WHEN GOD IS
SAYING, YOU ARE IN A NEW SEASON. QUIT LOOKING BACK. QUIT HOLDING
ON. SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA TAKE THE WINTER COAT OFF AND GET READY TO
PUT ON A NEW ONE, A NEW NOT COAT, BUT A NEW GARMENT. BLIND
BARTIMAEUS, THE ONLY WAY HE WAS GONNA GET FREE IS HE HAD TO GET
RID OF THE OLD GARMENT, THE FORMER THING, SO HE COULD SEE
CLEARLY. SOME FOLKS, THEY CAN'T SEE BECAUSE THEY KEEP HOLDING
ON. THEY KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT, DISCUSSING IT, RIGHT? REHEARSING
THE PAIN, REHEARSING THE FRUSTRATION. LOOK AT THE
SCRIPTURE, BEHOLD, I WILL DO A NEW THING. SOMEONE SAY NEW
THING. NEW THING. BECAUSE FORMER THINGS HAVE COME TO PASS. NOW,
NEW THINGS I DECLARE, AND BEFORE THEY SPRING FORTH, AND EVERY
TIME I KEEP SEEING THAT WORD SPRING, I FEEL LIKE GOD IS
SAYING SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT IS ABOUT TO SHIFT AND HAPPEN IN THE
EARTH, SPRING INTO SUMMER. I THINK WE'RE GONNA SEE SOME
CONFLICTS ARISE, AND IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT IT THROUGH NATURAL
GLASSES, YOU ARE GONNA THINK THAT WE ARE NOT IN A NEW SEASON.
BUT I'M TELLING YOU, I SENSE AS WE MOVE TOWARDS THAT JULY 4TH,
THE 250TH YEAR OF AMERICA'S REIGN, THAT SOMEHOW GOD HAS
DETERMINED, AT LEAST FOR THIS COUNTRY AND THE UNITED STATES,
THAT SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT IS GOING TO BEGIN TO SHIFT. AND WE
ARE GOING TO SEE IT, AND YOU'RE GONNA SEE IT IN YOUR LIFE. I
SENSE THAT AS WE'RE CELEBRATING OUR INDEPENDENCE AND OUR
FREEDOM, THAT IT'S NOT JUST FOR THE UNITED STATES. GOD'S NOT
RESTRICTED TO THE UNITED STATES. BUT I SENSE THAT THERE IS A
MIDDLE MOMENT, THERE'S A MIDTERM MOMENT, THERE'S A INDEPENDENCE
MOMENT, WHERE THE THINGS THAT HAVE STRAPPED YOU IN THE PAST
ARE GONNA SUDDENLY, YOU'RE GONNA SAY, IT'S LIKE I'M FREE. IT'S
LIKE I DON'T CARE ABOUT THOSE THINGS ANYMORE. I DON'T CARE
ABOUT WHETHER I GOT THAT JOB, WHETHER I GOT THAT HOUSE, OR
WHATEVER THE DISAPPOINTMENT IS. YOU'RE GONNA BE SO KNOWING THAT
SOMETHING HAS SHIFTED IN A NEW SEASON, AND YOU'RE GONNA START
SEEING IT, IT'S GONNA BE MANIFESTED, THAT YOU'RE GONNA
REJOICE IN THAT DAY. AND I SENSE IT IS STIRRING IN THE SPIRIT.
YOU SAY, WELL, HOW DO YOU KNOW? I DON'T KNOW. ASK ELIJAH HOW HE
KNEW THAT HE HEARD THE SOUND OF AN ABUNDANCE OF RAIN AND THERE
WAS NO PROOF OF RAIN. ASK NOAH WHAT MOTIVATED HIM FOR 120 YEARS
TO KEEP BUILDING WHEN THERE HAD NEVER EVEN ON EARTH, NOBODY KNEW
WHAT RAIN WAS. THERE WASN'T EVEN A DROP OF RAIN. AND YET NOAH HAD
THE DETERMINATION IN HIS FAITH TO KEEP BUILDING EVEN WHEN IT
DIDN'T LOOK LIKE IT. HE SENSED SOMETHING WAS STIRRING. IN FACT,
YOU KNOW WHAT'S SO CRAZY? THE WHOLE WORLD EXCEPT EIGHT PEOPLE
MISSED THE BOAT. YOU KNOW HOW YOU HEARD THE SAYING, "MISSED
THE BOAT?" GOD GAVE THEM SEVEN DAYS OF GRACE BECAUSE
METHUSELAH, HIS NAME MEANT WHEN THE FLOOD COMES, THEN THE
JUDGMENT, OR WHEN HE DIES, THEN IT COMES, THEN THE JUDGMENT, THE
FLOOD COMES. HE WAS A SIGNPOST, THAT'S WHY GOD GAVE 900 AND SOME
ODD YEARS, I THINK IT WAS 69, 964, SOMETHING LIKE THAT, THAT
METHUSELAH LIVED FOR 900 YEARS, ALMOST 1,000 YEARS, ALMOST A
MILLENNIUM. GOD GAVE THE WHOLE WORLD AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET
READY, TO PREPARE THEMSELVES, THAT THEY WOULDN'T MISS THE
BOAT, THAT THEY WOULDN'T MISS THE SHIFT AND THE CHANGE THAT
WAS GONNA HAPPEN BECAUSE GOD WAS GONNA DEAL WITH CORRUPTION, HE
WAS GONNA DEAL WITH EVIL, AND HE WAS GONNA RESET THE EARTH LIKE
HE'S BEEN SAYING AND START OVER AND THERE WOULD BE A SMELL OF
SOMETHING CLEAN IN THE AIR AGAIN. CAN YOU IMAGINE CLEAN
MEDIAS, CLEAN REPORTING, CLEAN ELECTIONS? YES. YES. COME ON,
THIS IS WHERE WE'RE HEADING. AND YET, WHEN METHUSELAH DIED, THE
TRADITION WAS YOU GIVE SEVEN DAYS OF MOURNING. AND PEOPLE
SHOULD HAVE KNOWN, UH-OH, THE SIGNPOST JUST DIED. WE GOT SEVEN
DAYS TO GET IT RIGHT, TO GET ON THE BOAT, BUT THEY MISSED IT.
DON'T MISS YOUR SHIFT CHANGE, YOUR SWIFT CHANGE. DON'T MISS
THE NEW SEASON BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DISCERN THE TIMES. THAT'S WHAT
JESUS SAID. YOU CAN DISCERN THE FACE OF THE SKY, BUT YOU CAN'T
DISCERN THE TIMES. LOOK AT ISAIAH CHAPTER 42, THIS IS
POWERFUL. ISAIAH CHAPTER 42, LOOK AT THIS, VERSE 9. I LOVE
THIS. ISAIAH 42, VERSE 9, "BEHOLD, NEW THINGS, "BEHOLD,
THE FORMER THINGS ARE COME TO PASS." AGAIN, YOU GOTTA LET GO.
EVERYONE SAY LET GO. SOMETIMES WE SAY LET GO AND LET GOD, BUT
THAT'S THE TRUTH. YOU GOTTA LET GO AND LET GOD. DON'T JUST LET
GO. I NEVER DID LIKE THAT SONG, JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL. HE
SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN TAKING THE WHEEL ANYWAY. SHOULD HAVE BEEN
THE CAPTAIN. HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT. RIGHT,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TRYING TO BE IN CONTROL OF EVERYTHING ALL THE
TIME? "BEHOLD," LOOK, "PAY ATTENTION, "FORMER THINGS ARE
COMING TO PASS. "A NEW SEASON IS BEFORE US, IT'S MANIFESTING.
"AND NEW THINGS I DECLARE, AND BEFORE THEY SPRING FORTH," I
TELL YOU, WELL, THAT'S WHY GOD'S BEEN PROPHESYING IT. PEOPLE GET
MAD WHEN CERTAIN VESSELS ARE ANOINTED BY GOD TO BE A
PROPHETIC VOICE THAT COMES ALONG AND SAYS, "THIS IS WHAT THE LORD
IS SAYING. "IT MAY LOOK LIKE THIS IN THE EARTH, "IT MIGHT BE
HAPPENING IN THE EARTH. "THIS IS THE WAY THINGS LOOK LIKE THEY'RE
HEADING." BUT THEN GOD COMES ALONG AND SAYS, "BUT WAIT A
MINUTE, "I'M GONNA TELL YOU HOW THIS IS GONNA END UP. "I'M GONNA
TELL YOU THAT THERE IS A DIVINE INTERRUPTION "IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE CHAOS." AND THAT'S WHAT GOD'S TRYING TO GET THROUGH OUR
HEADS. HE'S THE ONE DOING THIS. THIS IS WHY THE LORD SAID LAST
YEAR, LOOK AT VERSE 13. GOD SAID, "THIS IS MY FIGHT, I AM
THE LORD OF THE FIGHT." NOW, WHAT WE DON'T WANNA DO IS FIGHT
AGAINST HIM THROUGH OUR IDEOLOGIES OR OUR RELIGIOUS
SPIRIT, WHERE WE START DETERMINING HOW GOD SHOULD DO
THINGS. AMEN? THE LORD SHALL GO FORTH AS A MIGHTY MAN. YEP, THIS
YEAR, HE ALREADY STARTED LAST YEAR. HE SHALL STIR UP JEALOUSY
LIKE A MAN OF WAR. SO HOW MANY KNOW THE LORD IS A WARRIOR? THE
LORD IS HIS NAME, EXODUS 15. "HE SHALL CRY, HE SHALL ROAR, "HE
SHALL PREVAIL AGAINST HIS ENEMIES." THIS IS THE SEASON
THAT WE'RE IN. AS WE WERE PRAYING ABOUT THIS NEW YEAR, I
SAID, "LORD, TELL ME, I JUST WANNA KNOW, "KEEP IT SIMPLE FOR
THE PEOPLE, "BUT TELL ME, WHAT IS IT THAT YOU WOULD SAY TO THE
PEOPLE?" AND I'LL NEVER FORGET THE DAY HE SPOKE TO ME, JUST
RIGHT BEFORE THANKSGIVING. HE SAID, "I WANT TO SPEAK ABOUT
THIS SEASON "AND THIS COMING YEAR." HE SAID, "IT IS REVEALED
IN TWO CS." I SAID, "WELL, LORD, WHAT ARE THEY?" HE SAID, "THE
FIRST ONE, YOU'RE NOT TO BE MOVED BY, "YOU WON'T LIKE IT."
BUT HE SAID, "IT HAS TO HAPPEN "WHEN I WILL REVEAL TO YOU THE
SECOND ONE." SO THE FIRST ONE, GOD HAS IT HAPPENING SO THAT HE
CAN MANIFEST THE SECOND. YOU SAY, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE
WATCHING, WHAT IS THE FIRST ONE? THE FIRST C IS THIS. IT IS THE
WORD CONFLICT. THE SPIRIT OF GOD SAID THERE WOULD BE MANY
CONFLICTS THAT WOULD ARISE, AND SOME OF THE CONFLICTS WOULD BE
THAT GOD IS COMING TO DEAL WITH CERTAIN CONFLICTS IN YOUR LIFE,
CONFLICTS IN THE EARTH, CONFLICTS OVER THE NATIONS.
THINK ABOUT HOW GOD RELEASED THAT WORD EVEN ON NEW YEAR'S,
AND THEN WHAT, TWO DAYS LATER, ALL OF A SUDDEN, VENEZUELA'S IN
THE NEWS, AND ALL OF THESE NATIONS, CUBA, IRAN, AND WE'LL
VISIT SOME OF THOSE PROPHECIES IN THE COMING WEEKS, BUT HERE'S
THE POINT. EVERYTHING, THESE CONFLICTS ARE STARTING TO ARISE.
IT'S SO THAT THE NEXT WORD CAN MANIFEST, AND IT'S THE WORD
CONFLICT. THINK ABOUT HOW THERE HAD TO BE A CONFLICT WITH THE
ENEMY IN ORDER FOR JESUS TO GRAB A HOLD OF THE KEYS TO DEATH,
HELL, AND THE GRAVE, AND BE THE CONQUERING KING. SO DON'T THINK
THE THINGS THAT YOU'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH IN THE FORMER
SEASON, THAT SOMEHOW GOD DOESN'T HAVE THE ABILITY, THE GRACE, THE
POWER, OR THE WHEREWITHAL TO BRING IT TO CONQUEST. THIS IS
WHERE HE'S HEADING. IT'S NOT THAT WE'RE GONNA CONTINUE TO
HAVE BATTLES AFTER BATTLES AFTER BATTLES. AND WHEN I WAS PRAYING
INTO IT, I SAID, "LORD, TELL ME ABOUT THIS CONQUEST." HE SAID,
"DID I NOT TELL YOU BEFORE THE DECADE?" 2018, 2019, THOSE OF
YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, DOCUMENTED PROPHECIES, GOD SAID
THAT THE DECADE WOULD START OFF HARSH, IT WOULD BE DARK, BUT
THEN IT WOULD COME INTO WHAT? REST, AND PART OF THAT REST IS
IN THE SCRIPTURE, I THINK IT'S IN THE BOOK OF SAMUEL, WHERE IT
SAYS THAT GOD GAVE REST TO DAVID, RIGHT? FROM ALL OF HIS
ENEMIES. ALL OF THOSE CONFLICTS, GOD GAVE HIM REST THROUGH
CONQUEST. GOD IS TRYING TO SHOW US WITH THE NATIONS IN AN
UPROAR, THINGS CRAZY IN MINNESOTA, RIGHT? THAT THESE
CONFLICTS ARE TO BRING A CONQUEST THAT IS GOING TO CAUSE
THIS NATION TO COME INTO REST. IT IS TWOFOLD REST. IT'S A REST
FROM OUR ENEMIES. IT'S NOT ALWAYS GONNA BE THIS WAY. YOU
SAY, WELL, I DON'T BELIEVE THAT. WELL, WAIT A MINUTE, THE WATERS
RETURNED IN THE DAYS OF NOAH AND THE WATERS RETURNED IN THE
PARTING OF THE RED SEA. SOMETIMES THINGS DO COME BACK IN
A PLACE OF DIVINE ORDER, THE WAY THAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE. BUT
IT HAS TO HAVE, AND WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT THIS, THE GOD FACTOR.
THE GOD FACTOR IS THE ONE THAT DETERMINES ALL OF IT. AND SO
THIS IS WHERE WE'RE HEADING. WE'RE HEADING FOR THIS RESET.
WE'RE HEADING FOR THIS REST, REST FROM OUR ENEMIES. THE
SECOND THING THAT THE REST IS, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING,
IS GOD IS RESTING HIS CASE IN THE CONTEXT OF CONQUEST AND THE
COURT OF HEAVEN. THERE IS NO HIGHER JUDGE THAN GOD. I WAS
PRAYING THIS WEEK AND I SAID TO GOD, THERE WERE SOME THINGS THAT
I'VE BEEN CONTENDING FOR, PRAYING FOR, MY PETITIONS HAVE
BEEN BEFORE HIM. AND I SAID TO THE FATHER, I SAID, FATHER, AS I
AM BEFORE YOUR MAJESTY AND YOUR HONOR, THERE IS NO GREATER GOD
THAN YOU. THERE IS NO HIGHER THRONE THAN YOURS. AND AS I
STAND BEFORE YOU, I COME BEFORE YOU IN FEAR AND IN HONOR AND IN
GREAT, GREAT, GREAT HUMILITY IN MY HEART THAT I AM NOT AS GREAT
AS YOU, NOR WOULD I THINK SO. BUT GOD, MY FATHER, I DO ASK
THAT YOU WOULD LOOK, LOOK BENEATH YOUR FEET. WHAT DO YOU
SEE, FATHER? I SAID, I KNOW WHAT YOU SEE. BENEATH YOUR THRONE,
THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, IS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE. AND I
SAID, NOW IS THE TIME, NOT ONLY IN MY LIFE, BUT OVER THE EARTH
AND OVER THE PEOPLE, OVER THE NATIONS, THAT THEY SEE THE GOD
THAT ABRAHAM DECLARED AND SAID, "SHALL NOT THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGE
OF THE EARTH DO WHAT IS RIGHT?" THERE IS NO GREATER JUDGE THAN
GOD. AND SO I SAID, LORD, WE NEED YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS AND
JUSTICE. WE NEED YOU TO BRING THINGS TO PROSECUTION. IT'S ONE
THING TO EXPOSE, BUT NOW, GOD, IT'S TIME THAT YOU HONOR WHAT
YOU SAID. AS YOU LOOK BENEATH YOUR FEET AND YOU SEE THAT
JUSTICE IS WHAT YOUR THRONE IS SET UPON, AS WELL AS
RIGHTEOUSNESS, IT'S TIME. AND IT'S TIME IN YOUR LIFE TOO, THAT
THINGS ARE RIGHTED. THAT SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THE ENEMY HAS
TRIED TO DO TO YOU, THAT HE'S GONNA HAVE TO PAY IN GOD'S
JUSTICE. HOW MANY SAY, I'LL TAKE THAT? SO SOME OF THE CONFLICTS
ARE BEING BROUGHT INTO CONQUEST. AND GOD IS THE ONE THAT'S
RESTORING. NOW LET'S GO ON BECAUSE LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENS.
NOW THIS IS WHAT I WANT YOU TO SEE. LOOK AT THE SHIFT CHANGE IN
VERSE 16 OF ISAIAH 42. "AND I WILL BRING THE BLIND BY THE WAY
THAT THEY KNEW NOT. "I WILL LEAD THEM IN PATHS THAT THEY DIDN'T
EVEN KNOW, "AND I WILL MAKE DARKNESS LIGHT BEFORE THEM. "AND
I," OH, HERE IT IS, "I'LL MAKE CROOKED THINGS STRAIGHT," THAT
DIVINE STRAIGHTENING. "THESE THINGS WILL I DO UNTO THEM, "AND
I WILL NOT FORSAKE YOU." NOW THINGS ARE STARTING TO SHIFT,
RIGHT? THIS IS WHAT GOD IS TRYING TO SAY TO US. NOW, ONE
THING THAT WE LEARN IS WE LEARN THE PRINCIPLE OF ECCLESIASTES
CHAPTER THREE. I WANT US TO GO BACK THERE BECAUSE I WANT US TO
SEE THIS. IF THE WAY THINGS HAPPEN IN THE EARTH HAVE TO
HAPPEN IN THIS THREEFOLD CHORD, THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. IT
SAYS TO EVERYTHING, UNDERLINE THE WORD EVERYTHING. THE MOST
WISE MAN IN THE EARTH, EXCEPT WHEN IT CAME TO WOMEN, RIGHT?
THAT GUY WAS MESSED UP. BUT TO EVERYTHING, THERE IS A SEASON.
SO TO EVERYTHING IN THE EARTH, THIS IS THE WISDOM OF GOD BEING
SPOKEN IN UTTERANCE TO SOLOMON, TO EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON.
AND TO EVERYTHING, THERE IS A PURPOSE UNDER HEAVEN. NOW, I
LIKE WHAT IT SAYS IN THAT VERSE. IT SAYS, FIRST OF ALL, TO
EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON. AND I'VE BEEN SAYING IT, THE
SEASON THAT WE HAVE BEEN IN, THAT WE'RE COMING OUT OF. NOW,
IT DOESN'T MEAN THERE ISN'T GONNA BE SHAKINGS, DOESN'T MEAN
THERE'S NOT GONNA BE SIFTINGS, RIGHT? BECAUSE ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT HAPPENS WHEN GOD BEGINS TO VISIT SOMETHING, THINK ABOUT THE
BIBLE. WHEN JESUS WOULD VISIT A CITY, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN?
MULTITUDES WOULD COME. WELL, WE'RE GONNA SEE THAT IN OUR
STADIUMS, IN OUR STREETS. WE'RE GONNA SEE PEOPLE WORSHIPING.
WE'RE ALREADY SEEING IT. WE'RE SEEING NATIONS, IRAN, THEY'RE
WANTING YESHUA. THIS ISN'T JUST ABOUT THEY WANT FREEDOM. THEY
WANT CHRISTIANITY. IT'S PROVEN. AND THERE'S THIS CRY IN THE
EARTH, AND GOD IS SHAKING, HE'S SHIFTING, HE'S SIFTING. HE'S
BEEN DOING IT ON PURPOSE SO THAT HE CAN MOVE US INTO THE NEXT
WORD, AND THAT IS TIME. WELL, WHAT TIME IS IT? IT'S SHIFT
CHANGE. IT'S SOMETHING IN THE AIR OF THE SPRING INTO SUMMER.
THE LORD IS SAYING, THIS IS WHAT I HAVE CHOSEN FOR YOUR LIFE.
THIS IS WHAT I'VE CHOSEN FOR THE EARTH. IT'S NOT JUST TO BRING
YOU OUT OF THIS SEASON, BUT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE IN THIS
TIME NOW WHERE THE HARSHNESS AND THE SHAKINGS AND THE TROUBLE,
THE CONFLICTS, I AM DEALING WITH IT AT THIS TIME, AND I AM
SHIFTING THINGS, MOVING THINGS INTO CONQUEST. THAT IS THE
PURPOSE, IS TO BRING IT INTO CONQUEST. BRING IT INTO VICTORY.
SOMEONE SAY, LORD, I'LL RECEIVE THAT VICTORY. I RECEIVE THAT
VICTORY. IT'S VICTORY, WE'RE GONNA SEE VICTORY. SOMETIMES I
HEAR PEOPLE TALK SO MUCH DEFEAT OVER THE EARTH RIGHT NOW, OVER
THE NATION, OVER THEIR OWN LIFE, AND I'M LIKE, WELL, WHAT ARE YOU
LISTENING TO? THAT'S NOT WHAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS SAYING. HE
IS SAYING I AM TAKING YOU AND MOVING YOU INTO A SEASON, A TIME
OF A SHIFT CHANGE SO THAT I CAN BRING A PURPOSE. I CAN BRING A
CONQUERING, A CONQUEST TO YOUR CONFLICTS. I CAN BRING A VICTORY
TO THE AREAS THAT YOU FEEL DEFEATED. I CAN BRING THE
MANIFESTATION OF THE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE DESIRED AND THE THINGS
THAT YOU HAVE CRIED OUT FOR. I CAN BRING THE MANIFESTATION OF
HOPE DEFERRED FOR IT WILL SPRING, THERE'S THE WORD SPRING,
IT SHALL SPRING FORTH AND BECOME A TREE OF LIFE. SOME OF YOU,
RATHER THAN TALK ABOUT YOUR 2025, 2024, 2023, RIGHT, 1988,
WHATEVER IT IS, YOU NEED TO LOOK AT THIS YEAR AND SAY IN THE
SPRING, IN THIS SEASON, THIS IS THE TIME OF SHIFT, THIS IS THE
TIME OF CHANGE, AND THIS IS THE TIME OF SWIFT CHANGE. THAT'S THE
PURPOSE, ACCELERATION THAT ONLY GOD CAN DO. ONLY GOD CAN DO.
COME ON, THINGS THAT SEEM LIKE IT TOOK A LONG TIME, ALL OF A
SUDDEN YOU'RE GONNA LOOK OVER NEXT TO YOU AND GO, WHOA, I
THOUGHT I'D NEVER HAVE A HOUSE. I THOUGHT I'D NEVER BE MARRIED
AGAIN. I THOUGHT I'D NEVER BE MARRIED AT ALL. I THOUGHT I
WOULD NEVER HAVE A BETTER JOB. I THOUGHT I NEVER WOULD SEE MY
KIDS RETURN TO GOD. I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER BE HEALED. YOU WILL
IN THE SEASON OF CONQUEST, BUT YOU GOTTA BELIEVE. YOU CAN'T GET
OVER INTO DOUBT. WELL, I'VE HEARD THAT BEFORE. DIE IN YOUR
WILDERNESS THEN. OF YOUR CONSTANT NEGATIVITY,
COMPLAINING, WANDERING. NO, I REFUSE. BEFORE THE NEW YEAR
CAME, I WENT OUT INTO MY LITTLE SUNROOM ONE NIGHT, AND I SAID,
"GOD," I SAID, "WE'RE ABOUT TO EMBARK ON A NEW YEAR. "AND I,
THROUGH YOUR SPIRIT, THROUGH THIS MOUTH, "HAVE BEEN DECLARING
THAT WE'RE IN A TIME "OF A SWIFT CHANGE, A SHIFT CHANGE." AND I
SAID, "GOD, I CANNOT WAIT, BECAUSE 2025," AND I SAID, "NOW
I'M GONNA JUST SHARE SOME THINGS "WITH YOU VERY QUICKLY, MY
FATHER. "WE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT SOME THINGS "THAT I DID
NOT LIKE, SOME DISAPPOINTMENTS." YES, PASTOR HANK HAD SOME HURTS
IN 2025. THINGS THAT WERE PAINFUL TO ME. BUT YOU KNOW
WHAT, I SAID, "GOD, I'M GOING TO TALK TO YOU "ABOUT THESE VERY
QUICKLY. "I'M NOT GOING TO CAMP UPON THEM "BECAUSE YOU HAVE
DECLARED THAT FORMER THINGS "HAVE COME TO PASS AND NEW
THINGS. "SO HERE'S WHAT I'M GOING TO DO. "I'M GOING TO TELL
YOU THESE THINGS BECAUSE I'M GOING TO PUT IT UNDER MY FOOT.
I'M GOING TO NOT KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT, THINKING ABOUT IT,
DISCUSSING IT. I'M LOOSING IT FROM MY SOUL. AND WHEN I WALK
OUT OF THIS ROOM, I'M GONNA GO INTO THE OTHER ROOM AND I'M
GONNA WORSHIP YOU. AND ALL I'M GONNA DO IS LIFT UP THE MAJESTY
OF THY NAME AND THE HONOR OF YOUR WORD AND WHO YOU ARE. AND
I'M GOING TO THANK YOU FOR THE NEW SEASON. AND MY EXPECTATION
IS GREAT BEFORE YOU, MY GOD AND MY FRIEND AND MY KING. AND SO I
GOT UP, AFTER I SAID IT, I HAD KIND OF A MOANING SESSION, AND I
WENT OUT AND I BEGAN TO WORSHIP GOD. AND I HEARD HIM WHEN I GOT
DONE, HE SAID, "THANK YOU." AND I SAID, "WELL," AND I BOWED LIKE
THIS, SO I SAID, "THANK YOU, BECAUSE WHAT I'VE WORSHIPED YOU
ABOUT "AND I'VE ASKED YOU, YOU'RE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING
IT. "AND I THANK YOU AND I HONOR YOU "FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY
HEART, AMEN." SO THAT'S HOW YOU POSITION YOURSELF. NOW THIS IS
VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY,
VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY IMPORTANT. YOU SAY, "WHY?" I'M
GONNA SHOW YOU WHY. LOOK AT EXODUS CHAPTER 8, VERSE 23.
EXODUS 9:4, AND EXODUS 11:7. 8:23, 9:4, 11:7, HUT! ALL RIGHT,
OH, WE'RE ENTERING INTO A REMOTE SEASON, GOD. OKAY, BUT LOOK AT
EXODUS CHAPTER 8. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT. NOW, YOU SAY, "YEAH,
BUT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT ISRAEL. "YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE OLD
TESTAMENT." THOSE THINGS, ACCORDING TO THE BOOK OF
CORINTHIANS, CHAPTER 10, IT SAYS, "DID THEY NOT PASS THROUGH
THE RED SEA?" WE'VE ALL PASSED THROUGH THE RED SEA. AND THEN IT
GOES ON IN 1 CORINTHIANS, I THINK IT'S 1 OR 2 CORINTHIANS, 1
CORINTHIANS. IT SAID, "THOSE THINGS ARE WRITTEN FOR OUR
EXAMPLES." FOR US TO PAY ATTENTION, WHAT HAPPENED TO
ISRAEL WAS WRITTEN FOR OUR EXAMPLE SO THAT WE DON'T MAKE
THE SAME MISTAKES OR WE LEARN FROM THEM OR WE SEE CERTAIN
PRINCIPLES OF HOW GOD DEALT WITH THE PEOPLE, HIS PEOPLE, AND
DEALT WITH THE NATION. THAT'S WHY ECCLESIASTES 1:9, THOSE OF
YOU THAT ARE TAKING NOTES, IT SAYS, "WHAT HAS BEEN IS GONNA BE
AGAIN." ECCLESIASTES 3, VERSE 15 SAYS, "GOD SEEKS WHAT PASSES BY
AND WHAT HAS BEEN IS NOW." IT'S NOT JUST WE'RE WAITING ON IT,
WE'RE HOPING. WE HAVE THIS FALSE HOPE THAT, YOU KNOW, ONCE AGAIN,
IT'S A NEW YEAR, SO WE GOT OUR CLICHES. NO, DON'T DO THAT.
DON'T POSITION YOURSELF THAT WAY OR YOU'LL MISS OUT. ECCLESIASTES
3 ALSO SAYS THAT HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF. SO THAT'S THE CYCLE OF
THINGS THAT REVISIT ITSELF, RIGHT? SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE
OLD TESTAMENT, YOU SAY, OKAY, WELL, THAT HAPPENED TO ISRAEL.
THAT HAPPENED TO A NATION. GOD DID IT WITH HIS PEOPLE. WOW,
IT'S EVEN GREATER IN THE NEW COVENANT BECAUSE OF JESUS BEING
INJECTED INTO THE EARTH AND BRINGING THAT GRACE AND THAT
MERCY AND THAT HELP. ECCLESIASTES 7, VERSE 8 SAYS
THAT, "AN END OF A THING IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN BEFORE." SO
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO ISRAEL, THAT'S OUR EXAMPLE. UNDER THE
NEW TESTAMENT, WE ARE THE CONGREGATION OF GOD. IT IS
BETTER. SO LOOK AT WHAT HE DID IN EXODUS 8, VERSE 23. THAT IS
NOW BETTER. IF GOD DID IT AND WHAT HAS BEEN IS GONNA BE AGAIN,
THEN LOOK AT THIS. GOD, THIS IS THE LORD SPEAKING, I AM GOING TO
PUT A DIVISION. I AM GOING TO PUT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MY
PEOPLE AND THY PEOPLE. TOMORROW SHALL THIS SIGN BE. I'VE BEEN
WORKING ON MY BOOK, BECOMING A FRIEND OF GOD, AND SOMETHING
THAT I'VE DISCOVERED IS EVEN THOUGH WE COULD BE AND WE ARE
GOD'S PEOPLE, THERE ARE THOSE THAT ARE IN GOD'S PEOPLE THAT
GOD IS NOT A RESPECTER OF PERSONS, BUT HE RESPECTS THE
PERSONS WHO HAVE A DEEPER HUNGER AND PURSUIT FOR HIM THAT CAUSES
A GREATER FAVOR EVEN IN THE MIDST OF ALL OF THE PEOPLE. I
DON'T WANNA JUST BE, GOD, YOU'RE BRINGING A DIFFERENCE WITH YOUR
PEOPLE. FROM THE MIDST OF YOUR PEOPLE, I WANNA BE SINGLED OUT
AND CALLED OUT BECAUSE OUT OF THE PEOPLE, I AM NOT A LUKEWARM
CHRISTIAN. I'M NOT A CHRISTIAN THAT WILL COMPROMISE. I'M NOT A
CHRISTIAN LORD GOD WHO IS PLAYING GAMES. I LOVE THE LORD
THY GOD. I AM AFTER YOUR HEART. I HONOR YOU FOR YOU HANDED THE
KING THE SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, FATHER, AND WHEN
HE CAME INTO THE COURT OF HEAVEN, YOU SAID, "SON, YOU ARE
GOD, AND YOU LOVE RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND YOU HATE INIQUITY. MAY THAT
BE SAID OF US." SEE, IT'S ONE THING TO BE SEPARATED AND BE
AMONG GOD'S CHURCH, HIS SONS, HIS DAUGHTERS, BUT THEN AMONG
THOSE, I WANT TO BE MARKED. THAT IS MY BOY IN WHOM I'M WELL
PLEASED, BECAUSE HE GOES THE EXTRA MILE. HE DOES THINGS IN
HIS LIFE THAT ALIGNS HIMSELF. LISTEN, I'M NOT SO INTO ALL OF
THE THINGS THAT THE EARTH HAS, THAT'S NOT MY INTEREST. MY
INTEREST IS I'VE GOT TO CAPTURE SOMETHING. I HAVE TO CAPTURE THE
HEART OF GOD. AND AS I CAPTURE HIS HEART, I'VE GOT TO CAPTURE
HIS VOICE. I'VE GOT TO FEEL THE PRESENCE OF HIM. I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT IS HE THINKING. WHAT IS HE LIKE? WHAT DOES GOD, WHAT DOES
HE HATE, HE DESPISE? THEN I WANT TO ALIGN MYSELF THAT WAY. GOD,
THIS IS, YOU PUT A DIVISION WITH YOUR PEOPLE, BUT THEN WITHIN
YOUR PEOPLE, THAT'S WHY GOD ALWAYS HAD A REMNANT. WITHIN THE
PEOPLE, THERE WAS ALWAYS A SMALL GROUP THAT WOULD DO WHAT
EVERYBODY ELSE SHOULD BE DOING. YOU SAY, WELL, I DON'T THINK
THAT, I THINK GOD, HE JUST CARES ABOUT US ALL. SURE HE DOES, BUT
WHERE ARE YOU NUMBERED? WHERE ARE YOU NUMBERED? YOU SAY, WELL,
I DON'T KNOW. ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA DO A SHIFT HERE. LOOK AT
THE BOOK OF JUDE. WHERE ARE YOU NUMBERED? OKAY, I'M GONNA ASK
YOU. ALL RIGHT, LOOK HERE, JUDE VERSE 14, JUDE 14, LOOK HERE. SO
THIS IS AN INTERESTING ANALOGY HERE THAT I WANT YOU TO SEE FOR
A MOMENT. SO IT SAYS IN VERSE 14, ENOCH ALSO THE SEVENTH FROM
ADAM PROPHESIED OF THESE THINGS SAYING, "LOOK, THE LORD COMES
WITH 10,000 OF HIS SAINTS "TO EXECUTE JUDGMENT AND TO CONVINCE
ALL THAT ARE UNGODLY "AMONG THEM OF ALL THEIR UNGODLY DEEDS
"WHICH THEY'VE UNGODLY COMMITTED "AND OF ALL THEIR HARD SPEECHES
"WAS ON GODLY SINNERS HAVE SPOKEN." SO THIS PROPHECY IS
BEING FULFILLED RIGHT NOW. NOW NOTICE SOMETHING THOUGH THAT YOU
SEE IN CONTEXT HERE, AND I NEED TO PUT THIS IN MY BOOK, IS GO
BACK TO VERSE 14. I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE
TO SEE THE SPIRIT OF GOD UPON ME IS WANTING TO DRAW ATTENTION TO.
ALL RIGHT, IF GOD IS SEPARATING THINGS WITH
HIS PEOPLE FROM THE WORLD. LET ME ASK
YOU A QUESTION. WHERE ARE YOU NUMBERED? IF GOD IS SEPARATING
AND BRINGING THIS KIND OF SHIFT CHANGE AND SWIFT CHANGE, AND
HE'S TRYING TO BRING THIS KIND OF FAVOR, WHERE ARE YOU
NUMBERED? ARE YOU MARKED AMONG THE MASSES OF THE BODY OF
CHRIST? NOTICE THE FIRST THING, ENOCH. WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY
ABOUT ENOCH? WHAT DID ENOCH DO? THE BIBLE SAYS IN THE BOOK OF
GENESIS, HE WALKED WITH GOD. SO HE HAD A RELATIONSHIP, A
PURSUIT, AN INTIMACY THAT WAS FAR ABOVE THOSE THAT WERE IN THE
EARTH. HOW DO WE KNOW? BECAUSE IT SAYS IN THE BOOK OF GENESIS,
I THINK IT'S CHAPTER 5 OR 6, IT'S RIGHT IN THERE, WHERE ENOCH
WALKED WITH GOD, KNEW GOD AND WAS NOT, GOD TOOK HIM, RIGHT?
THERE WAS SOMETHING IN ENOCH AND HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AMONG
ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE EARTH THAT WAS UNIQUE, MARKED. AND GO BACK
TO THAT VERSE IN VERSE 14 OF JUDE. SO THERE'S SOMETHING
SPECIAL ABOUT THOSE WHO WALK WITH GOD, HOW YOU WALK WITH GOD.
ASK YOURSELF A QUESTION, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING, HOW IS
MY WALK WITH GOD? AM I ON FIRE? AM I ZEALOUS FOR GOD, OR HAS
EVERYTHING ELSE GOT MY ATTENTION? YOU KNOW BY WHAT
COMES OUT OF YOUR MOUTH, WHAT YOU DISCUSS MORE THAN ANYTHING,
MORE THAN GOD, YOU GOTTA WATCH, BECAUSE OUT OF THE ABUNDANCE OF
YOUR HEART, YOUR MOUTH SPEAKS, AND WHAT YOU'RE CONSTANTLY
SPEAKING ABOUT, TALKING ABOUT, INTERESTED IN, REVEALS A LOT
ABOUT YOUR WALK, AND HOW DEEP YOU ARE, AND HOW COMMITTED. NOW,
I'M NOT SAYING THAT EVERY TIME YOU TALK, YOU KNOW, OH, THANK
GOD FOR THE TOAST. THANK GOD FOR MY SHOESTRING, OOPS. I ALMOST
TRIPPED OVER MY SHOESTRING. THANK YOU, GOD, THE LORD WHO
TIES MY SHOES. OKAY, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A WEIRDO. RIGHT,
DON'T BE A WEIRDO. BUT NOTICE ENOCH, HE WAS A MAN. IT HAD TO
DO WITH HIS WALK, BUT NOTICE IT SAID THE SEVENTH FROM ADAM. NOW
IS THAT THE SEVENTH PERSON? NO, BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT WHERE
ENOCH WAS BORN IN GENESIS 5 AND YOU GO AND YOU LOOK AT THE
GENEALOGIES, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE EARTH WAS FILLED WITH PEOPLE. HE
WASN'T THE SEVENTH PERSON BY WAY OF NUMBERS. HE WAS THE SEVENTH
BY THE WAY OF ALL MILLIONS OR BILLIONS, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY
THERE WERE, HE WAS SEVEN. HE WAS MARKED, ONLY SEVEN SINCE ADAM
WERE MARKED AMONG THE PEOPLE AT THAT LEVEL. THIS IS WHAT I WANT
IN MY LIFE. I DON'T WANNA JUST BE, YOU KNOW, THE BODY OF
CHRIST. I DON'T WANNA JUST BE A SON OF GOD, A CHILD OF GOD. I
WANNA BE MARKED, SINGLED OUT, CALLED OUT, BECAUSE MY WALK,
LIKE ENOCH, IS SOMETHING THAT HAS GOTTEN GOD'S ATTENTION. AND
THAT OUGHTA BE OUR DESIRE, OUR PASSION, OUR PURSUIT. THE LORD
IS TAKING MY MESSAGE IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. ALL RIGHT,
EXODUS 8, VERSE 23, LET'S GO BACK THERE. LET'S LOOK AT 9:4,
11:7. SO WE GO BACK TO EXODUS 8. WE'RE IN A TIME OF THIS SHIFT
CHANGE. WE'RE IN THIS TIME WHERE DON'T REHEARSE. I IMPLORE YOU,
ALL OF THE NEGATIVE, THE BAD, THE FRUSTRATION. YOU KNOW, MY
WIFE, SHE TAUGHT ME SOMETHING. DON'T USE THE WORD I'M
FRUSTRATED. BECAUSE EVERY TIME YOU SAY IT, THE DEFINITION OF
FRUSTRATION IS HINDERED. SO EVERY TIME YOU SAY I'M
FRUSTRATED OVER MY JOB, I'M FRUSTRATED OVER THIS. WELL, YOU
MIGHT BE, BUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS YOU'RE EMPOWERING BECAUSE THE
SPIRIT REALM OPERATES BY WORDS. THAT'S HOW GOD CREATED THE
HEAVENS AND THE EARTH. JESUS CREATED BY THE WORDS OF HIS
POWER. THEY'RE SUSTAINED, THEY'RE UPHELD BY THE WORDS OF
HIS POWER, RIGHT? SATAN AND DEMONS OPERATE BY WORDS AND
THAT'S HOW THEY ENTRAP YOU. THE BIBLE SAYS IN PROVERBS 6, "WE
ARE SNARED, WE'RE TRAPPED BY THE WORDS OF OUR MOUTH." THE WAY
THAT THE ENEMY TRAPS US IS BY THE THINGS COMING OUT OF OUR
TRAP. AND HE TRAPS US WITH OUR TRAP. AND SO WHAT WE HAVE TO
LEARN TO DO IS SPEAK RIGHT, SPEAK GOD'S WORD, SPEAK YOU'RE
THE PROPHET OVER YOUR OWN LIFE. WHAT ARE YOU SAYING OVER YOUR
LIFE? GOD PUT A DIVISION, HE PUT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MY PEOPLE
AND THY PEOPLE. I MEAN, PEOPLE STOP RIGHT THERE, OH, THAT'S
GREAT, GOD'S GONNA FAVOR HIS PEOPLE. YEAH, THAT'S GREAT, BUT
I WANT TO BE FAVORED AMONG HIS PEOPLE. AMEN. AMEN. GOOD. I'M
DETERMINED TO WALK IN A HIGHER LEVEL OF BLESSING AND INTIMACY.
WELL, YOU'RE SAYING YOU'RE BETTER THAN US. LET GOD DECIDE
THAT. MY PURSUIT IN DETERMINATION. NOW LOOK AT
EXODUS 9. LOOK AT WHAT GOD SAYS, EXODUS 9. THIS IS VERY POWERFUL.
PASTOR DOUG, YOU CAN START COMING. AND THE LORD SHALL
SEVER, OR HE'LL PUT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE CATTLE OF ISRAEL AND
THE CATTLE OF EGYPT, AND THERE SHALL NOTHING DIE OF ALL THAT IS
IN THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. SO GOD EVEN HAD SUCH A PRESERVATION
THAT THERE WAS A SEPARATION THAT WAS, YOU COULD SAY IT THIS WAY,
IT WAS SO OBVIOUS. THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. DON'T GET
INTO NEGATIVITY AND DOUBT. WELL, I'VE HEARD ALL THIS BEFORE. I
REMEMBER BACK IN 2006 WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE YEAR OF THE
FIX, AND NOW 20 YEARS LATER, NOTHING'S BEEN FIXED. AND I LIVE
DOWN IN TEXAS, AND WE'RE FIXING TO DO EVERYTHING, BUT GOD HASN'T
FIXED MY 2006, LET ALONE MY ’26. WELL, YOU'RE GETTING
WHAT YOU SAY. BECAUSE YOU'VE GOTTEN OVER
INTO NEGATIVITY. YES, SIR. YEAH. I AM DETERMINED
IN MY LIFE. I AM NOT LETTING GO OF YOU, GOD, UNTIL YOU BLESS ME
IN THESE AREAS THAT I HAVE BEEN PRAYING FOR. AND THAT'S THE WAY
WE ALL HAVE TO BE. I'M NOT BETTER. I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP
YOU GET TO THAT PLACE. IF GOD IS SAYING I'M GONNA BRING A DIVINE
SEPARATION, WELL, THEN DON'T GET IN HIS WAY. AMEN. HAVE AT
IT, MY FATHER. I MEAN, IF YOU GOTTA SPEAK KING JAMES BACK TO
HIM, HAVE YOUR WAY AND YOUR SAY, OH GREAT GOD. I MEAN, I DID SAY
IT TO THE LORD ONE DAY, 'CAUSE I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE ONE OF MY
PRAYERS WOULD BE AN ANSWER, I SAID, WHAT DO I NEED TO DO? TALK
KING JAMES TO YOU? YOU SAID I COULD HAVE WHAT I SAY. I'VE BEEN
SAYING IT, GOD. AND I HEARD, AND I'M NOT KIDDING, I HEARD THE
SOUND OF LAUGHTER. AND I SAID, I'M NOT TRYING TO
MAKE YOU LAUGH, I'M TRYING TO MAKE A POINT.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
HE WAS LAUGHING REALLY HARD. I KNOW, YOU SAY, "PASTOR, YOU'RE
STRANGE." NO, I'M TELLING YOU, HE WAS LAUGHING. AND IT MADE ME
LAUGH, AND I SAID, ALL RIGHT, I'M GONNA CALM DOWN, I'M GONNA
GET RIGHT HERE. BUT I SAID, "LORD, I JUST THOUGHT MAYBE, YOU
KNOW, "IF I SAID THE KING JAMES, YOU KNOW, "IT MIGHT MAKE IT MORE
OF A DIFFERENCE HERE." ALL RIGHT, LOOK AT EXODUS 11, VERSE
7. ALL RIGHT, THIS IS POWERFUL. NOW, EXODUS 11, VERSE SEVEN.
WHAT DOES IT SAY? "BUT AGAINST ANY OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL
"SHALL NOT A DOG MOVE ITS TONGUE." HOW MANY OF YOU TIRED
OF THE ENEMY BARKING IN YOUR EAR? RIGHT? PEOPLE, SOME OF THEM
HAVE TAKEN ON THE SPIRIT OF THE DOG.
(IMITATES DOG BARKING)
YOU SAY, YOU KNOW WHAT, AMERICA IS GOING TO BE SAVED.
(IMITATES DOG BARKING)
RIGHT? RHINO DOGS, THE LIBERAL DOGS, RIGHT? START BARKING.
(IMITATES DOG BARKING)
YOU SAY, I'M GONNA BE HEALED, I'M IN THE PROCESS OF IT.
(IMITATES DOG BARKING)
OH, GOD HEALS SOME AND GOD HEALS OTHERS.
(IMITATES DOG BARKING)
BE CAREFUL FOR THE SOUND OF THE DOGS, RIGHT? THAT ALWAYS GOTTA
BARK AND TELL YOU THAT IT ISN'T GONNA HAPPEN, WHETHER IT'S HUMAN
BEINGS OR DEMONS. THEY START BARKING TO MAKE THINGS ROUGH IN
YOUR LIFE. THAT WAS VERY, VERY PROFOUND. I FELT LIKE I WAS
LOSING, I HAD TO THROW SOMETHING IN THERE, RIGHT? BUT SHALL NOT A
DOG MOVE HIS TONGUE AGAINST MAN OR BEAST, THAT YOU MAY KNOW THAT
THE LORD DOES PUT A DIFFERENCE. AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT
YOU'RE GONNA SEE IS THAT THOSE VOICES, THEY DON'T HAVE A HOLD
ON YOU ANYMORE. IT'S A NEW SEASON. SOMEONE SAY IT'S A NEW
SEASON. ALL RIGHT, NOW, I WANNA SHOW YOU A COUPLE OTHER THINGS
BEFORE WE END. ROMANS CHAPTER 5, VERSE 8. LET ME SHOW YOU THIS
PRINCIPLE. YOU'VE OFTEN HEARD ME SAY THE GOD FACTOR, RIGHT? ALL
RIGHT. I'VE HEARD PEOPLE BEFORE, I'LL BE LIKE, I'M LIKE, WELL,
YOU KNOW, I REALLY BELIEVE THE LORD'S GONNA PULL YOU THROUGH
THIS. WELL, I'M HANGING ON FOR DEAR LIFE, BUT GOD. HOW MANY
EVER HEARD OF THE, BUT GOD? BUT GOD NEEDS TO. NO, GOD ALREADY
DID. EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED TO JESUS'S BODY AS THE PROPITIATION
OR THE SUBSTITUTE OF OUR SINS, THAT'S WHY WE CAN DO WHAT PSALM
107 SAYS, LET THE REDEEMED OF THE LORD SAY SO. NOTHING WAS
LEFT OUT, NOTHING WAS MISSING, NOTHING WAS BROKEN IN THE
COVENANT. THAT'S WHY JESUS SAID IT'S FINISHED. IT WAS NOT ONLY
TO DECLARE THAT THERE WAS NOTHING MISSING, NOTHING BROKEN,
EVERYTHING WAS FULFILLED, BUT IT WAS ALSO A LEGAL TERM SAYING,
DEVIL, NOTHING WAS LEFT OUT. I PAID FOR EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING.
I PAID FOR IT. AND YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO WHATEVER YOU NEED.
ROMANS 5, VERSE 8, LOOK AT WHAT IT SAYS. BUT GOD, I LOVE THAT
WORD, BUT GOD, UNDERLINE IT. THAT'S THE GOD FACTOR. GOD
COMMENDS HIS LOVE TOWARDS US. SO IN OTHER WORDS, IF GOD WOULDN'T
HAVE HAD THE GOD FACTOR, IF GOD WOULDN'T HAVE INTERVENED IN
AMERICA, IF GOD WOULDN'T HAVE INTERVENED IN YOUR LIFE, IF GOD
WOULDN'T HAVE DETERMINED THAT 2025 WAS THE YEAR OF THE FIGHT
AND THAT HE WAS GOING TO DEAL WITH CONFLICTS, IF IT WASN'T FOR
GOD, WE WOULDN'T SEE THE BUT GOD, THE GOD FACTOR THROUGH HIS
LOVE THAT WHAT CHRIST DIED, THAT'S THE CONQUEST. AREN'T YOU
GLAD FOR THE BUT GOD? NOW GO TO EXODUS CHAPTER THREE, 'CAUSE I
SAID, LORD, SHOW ME ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE GOD FACTOR. AND
AS PLAIN AS DAY, I HEARD THE LORD SAY, IT IS IN MY NAME. I
SAID, IT'S IN YOUR NAME? HE SAID, YEP. AND IT WAS WHAT I
FIRST INTRODUCED MYSELF TO MOSES. LOOK AT EXODUS 3, VERSE
14. THIS IS POWERFUL. ARE YOU GETTING ANYTHING OUT OF THIS?
OKAY. THANK YOU FOR YOU SIX PEOPLE THAT AGREE. AND GOD SAID
UNTO MOSES, BECAUSE I LOVE WHAT MOSES SAID, HE SAID, "GOD, WHO
ARE YOU?" I ASK THAT TO THE LORD ALL THE TIME. "WHO ARE YOU?
"REVEAL YOURSELF TO ME. "I KNOW I CAN READ IT IN MY BIBLE, "BUT
I WANT TO SEE YOU. "WHO ARE YOU? "I DON'T WANNA KNOW FROM ANYBODY
ELSE'S REVELATION. "I WANT MY OWN. SOME SAY YOU'RE LIKE THIS,
BUT I WANT TO KNOW FOR MYSELF." I WANT TO KNOW FOR MYSELF. AND
GOD SAID TO MOSES, AFTER MOSES SAID, "WHO ARE YOU?" HE SAID
UNTO MOSES, "I AM THAT I AM." THAT'S THE GOD FACTOR. WELL,
PASTOR, HOW IS THAT THE GOD FACTOR? BECAUSE GOD WAS SAYING
THROUGH HIS NAME, I AM. ALL RIGHT, YOU NEED HEALING? HERE'S
THE GOD FACTOR, I'M YOUR HEALER. YOU NEED PROTECTION? OH, HERE'S
THE GOD FACTOR, I AM YOUR PROTECTOR. HMM, I AM LONELY.
WELL, THE GOD FACTOR, I AM YOUR HUSBAND. I AM YOUR FRIEND. I AM
YOUR SHEPHERD. SO THE I AM IS TO REVEAL THAT NO MATTER WHAT YOU
NEED, HE'S AVAILABLE WITH THE BUT GOD, THE GOD FACTOR, TO MEET
WHATEVER YOU NEED, TO SHOW UP IN YOUR LIFE, AMEN? TO MANIFEST
THAT SHIFT CHANGE, THAT SWIFT CHANGE. NOW, IT'S AMAZING TO ME,
AND I'LL JUST CLOSE WITH THIS, GO AHEAD AND STAND ON YOUR FEET.
IT'S AMAZING TO ME THAT IN THE BOOK OF JOHN ALONE, THE I AM
SHOWS UP. AND IN FACT, WHEN, I THINK IT WAS JOHN, I THINK IT
MIGHT HAVE BEEN JOHN 6 OR 5, BUT JESUS IS HAVING A
DISCOURSE WITH THE PHARISEES, REMEMBER? THEY SAY, "WHO ARE
YOU? "TELL US PLAINLY, ARE YOU THE SON OF GOD? YOU'RE GOING
AROUND DOING ALL THESE THINGS. TELL US PLAINLY. WHO ARE YOU?"
AND JESUS, I IMAGINE HIM JUST LEANING BACK, CHEWING ON A PIECE
OF, I DON'T KNOW, JERUSALEM STRAW. AND HE SAYS THESE WORDS
AND THEY MISSED, WELL, THEY DIDN'T MISS IT, WE MISS IT. HE
GOES, "BEFORE ABRAHAM, I AM." IN OTHER WORDS, HE'S SAYING, "I WAS
BORN BEFORE ABRAHAM. "I'VE ALWAYS EXISTED." AND THEN HE
USED THE NAME OF GOD, I AM. THEY WERE SO MAD, THEY IMMEDIATELY
WANTED TO KILL HIM AT THAT MOMENT. AND THEN HE HAS MORE
DISCOURSE WITH THEM. IN JOHN 6, AFTER FEEDING THE
MULTITUDES, "WHO ARE YOU?" HE SAID, "I AM, IN THE NAME OF GOD,
THE BREAD OF LIFE." JOHN EIGHT, "WHO ARE YOU?" "I AM THE LIGHT
OF THE WORLD." DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY DARKNESS YOU HAVE, THE
GOD FACTOR WILL LIGHT IT UP. "WELL, IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE
ANYTHING'S HAPPENING FOR ME. "I'VE BEEN PRAYING A LONG TIME."
OH, JOHN 10, THE GOD FACTOR, "I AM THE DOOR, "AND I OPEN DOORS
THAT NO MAN CAN SHUT, AND I SHUT DOORS THAT NO MAN CAN OPEN. I'M
SO LONELY. I'M IN THIS TRIAL ALL BY MYSELF." OH, JOHN 10, HERE'S
THE GOD FACTOR. "I AM YOUR SHEPHERD, AND I LEAD YOU BESIDE
STILL WATERS. I RESTORE YOUR SOUL. I JUST NEED TO SEE GOD'S
POWER MANIFEST OVER MY HEALING. OH, JOHN 11, THE GOD FACTOR. I
AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. AND BECAUSE I'VE
RESURRECTED AND ASCENDED, I HAVE ENOUGH POWER THAT I'VE PAID FOR
TO TAKE CARE OF ANYTHING. OH, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE
TODAY. WELL, QUIT WATCHING THE NEWS. BUT JOHN 14, THE GOD
FACTOR. I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH. DON'T TELL ME YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE. HE'S THE TRUTH. I'M
CONCERNED OVER MY LIFE. THE GOD FACTOR AND THE LIFE. NOW HERE'S
THE OTHER ONE. I DON'T KNOW. I'VE BEEN PRAYING A LONG TIME
AND I JUST DON'T SEEM TO GET ANSWERS, PASTOR. OH, THE GOD
FACTOR, JOHN 15. I AM THE VINE. YOU ARE THE BRANCHES. SO DON'T
SAY YOU CAN'T OR YOU'RE NOT BEARING FRUIT OR SEEING ANSWERS.
AS LONG AS YOU STAY CONNECTED TO THE VINE, YOU BE IN THE
BRANCHES, YOU WILL SHIFT, YOU WILL CHANGE, YOU WILL SEE FRUIT,
ANSWERED PRAYER, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN, SAY I
AM, SAY I LOVE YOU, I AM. NOW THANK HIM FOR THE GOD FACTOR.
LORD, WE THANK YOU FOR THE GOD FACTOR. WE THANK YOU, BUT GOD,
THE GOD FACTOR, AND WE ASK YOU TO INTERVENE IN OUR LIVES. WE
LOOK TO YOU FOR EVERYTHING THAT WE NEED TO SHIFT US, TO BRING
THE GREAT CHANGES, THE GOD CHANGES, THE GOD FACTOR CHANGES,
AND THEN TO BRING THE SWIFT CHANGES OF ACCELERATION AND
MANIFESTATION THAT WE MAY HONOR YOU AND LOVE YOU AND SERVE YOU
WE DECLARE YOUR GREATNESS AND WE THANK YOU AHEAD OF TIME
SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. IN FACT,
I FEEL LIKE THE LORD SAID END WITH ONE LAST VERSE I KNOW YOU
WANT TO GET GOING PSALM 84 LOOK AT VERSES 5 THROUGH 6 WHAT JOY
FOR THOSE WHOSE STRENGTH COMES FROM THE LORD. THAT'S THE GOD
FACTOR. WHO HAVE SET THEIR MINDS ON A PILGRIMAGE TO JERUSALEM.
THAT'S WHAT PASTOR BRENDA IS TALKING ABOUT. THE WAY OF PEACE,
JERUSALEM. PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM. WHEN THEY WALK
THROUGH THE VALLEY OF WEEPING, SOME OF YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH A
REALLY HARSH SEASON. BUT NOTICE WHAT GOD SAYS, YOU'RE GOING TO
COME TO A PLACE. YOU KNOW, LISTEN, GOD IS ABOUT A PLACE.
GOD'S ABOUT PLACES. WHAT DID HE TELL MOSES? MOSES, MEET ME AT A
PLACE CALLED THERE. MOSES IS LIKE, WHERE'S THERE? MEET ME UP
ON THE MOUNTAIN. SOMETIMES YOU GOT TO UNDERSTAND THAT GOD IS
ALWAYS ABOUT A PLACE. WHAT DID JESUS SAY IN JOHN 14? HE SAID,
IT IS EXPEDIENT, OR MAYBE IT WAS JOHN 16, THAT I GO AWAY. FOR
UNLESS I GO AWAY, THE SPIRIT OF GOD CANNOT COME, BUT I PREPARE A
WHAT? A PLACE FOR YOU. AND SOMETIMES WE'VE GOT OUR MINDS
AND OUR SPIRITS SO SET ON THE HEAVENLY PROMISE, WE DON'T THINK
THAT GOD CAN SET A PLACE OF AN EARTHLY PROMISE TO MANIFEST
SOMETHING IN OUR LIVES THAT IS SO POWERFUL, THAT DOESN'T COME
BY OUR MIGHT OR OUR POWER, BUT BY THE POWER OF HIS SPIRIT TO
MANIFEST IT, RIGHT? SO LOOK AT WHAT IT SAYS. IT SAYS, "I'VE
COME TO BRING YOU "TO A PLACE OF REFRESHING SPRINGS." NOW THIS IS
TALKING ABOUT LITERAL SPRINGS, RIVERS, WHATEVER. BUT WHAT ABOUT
THE SPRING? WHAT ABOUT GOD BRING US TO A PLACE OF A REFRESHING
SPRING THAT DOES HAVE THE FLOW OF HIS SPIRIT IN THE SPRING?
THAT BY THE TIME WE GO THROUGH SUMMER, WE'RE NOW INTO AUTUMN
THIS YEAR, AND IT'S GONNA RAIN, THE RAIN OF HIS BLESSING, THE
RAIN OF HIS SPIRIT WILL CLOTHE US WITH BLESSINGS. AND THEN NOW,
HERE'S WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO, PUT YOUR HAND UP, THOSE OF YOU
THAT ARE WATCHING UNLESS YOU'RE DRIVING, AND SAY, I TAKE THAT.
MY SPRING IS SHIFTING INTO CHANGE, INTO REFRESHING, INTO
MANIFESTATION, THAT BY THE TIME I GO THROUGH SUMMER, INTO
AUTUMN, THINGS HAVE SHIFTED TO WHERE IT'S SWIFT, IT'S
ACCELERATED, AND THIS AUTUMN, I WILL TESTIFY OF YOUR BLESSING,
OF YOUR PRESENCE, AND THE MANIFESTATION OF THE THINGS THAT
I HAVE DESIRED AND PRAYED FOR. AND WITH THAT, I SALUTE YOU AND
SAY THANK YOU, FATHER. AND ALL THE PEOPLE SAID, "AMEN." AMEN.
DID YOU LIKE THAT? ALL RIGHT, I LOVE YOU. GOD BLESS YOU. AS
PASTOR DOUG COMES, LET'S GIVE IT UP FOR PASTOR DOUG. I LOVE YOU,
MAN. AMEN. GOOD, PASTOR HANK. A HAND FOR THAT. WASN'T THAT A
GREAT MESSAGE THIS MORNING? GOD BLESS YOU. THANK YOU FOR COMING
TODAY. THANK YOU, ONLINE AUDIENCE, FOR TUNING IN. IF
YOU'RE WORKING IN ONE OF OUR INFORMATION CENTERS OR THE
CONNECT CAFE, YOU CAN BE DISMISSED AT THIS TIME TO
PREPARE FOR THE PEOPLE. I WON'T KEEP YOU LONG THIS MORNING, BUT
IT KIND OF STRUCK ME WHEN PASTOR HANK WAS TALKING ON THE ALTAR
TEAM, YOU CAN COME UP HERE QUICKLY RIGHT NOW. I ALMOST
FORGOT THAT. IF YOU NEED PRAYER THIS MORNING, THE ALTAR TEAM
WILL BE UP HERE AT THE END OF THE SERVICE WHEN I DISMISS, AND
YOU'RE WELCOME TO COME UP AND RECEIVE PRAYER FROM THEM. IT'S
ANOINTED AND POWERFUL. AMEN. AMEN. BUT WHEN PASTOR TALKED
ABOUT JUNE 14TH AND WHERE WE'RE NUMBERED AMONG THE PEOPLE AND
THE FACT THAT ENOCH WAS SINGLED OUT TO SAY THAT HE WALKED WITH
GOD, HOW MANY OF YOU WANT TO SAY OR HAVE GOD SAY, "I WALKED WITH
GOD"? THAT'S WHAT WE ALL DESIRE. WE SHOULD BE DESIRING. AND THE
TRUTH IS WE HAVE THIS LIFETIME TO MAKE THAT DECISION, TO BE
SINGLED OUT TO BE SOMEONE WALKING WITH GOD. AND THE BIBLE
ACTUALLY TELLS US THAT MOST PEOPLE WILL NOT MAKE THAT
DECISION, UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE IT'S A BROAD PATH TO
DESTRUCTION. IN FACT, I WANT THEM TO PUT UP QUICKLY, AND I'M
NOT GOING TO KEEP YOU LONG AT ALL, BUT MATTHEW 7:13, BECAUSE I
THINK IT EXPLAINS IT SO WELL. IT SAYS, "YOU CAN ENTER GOD'S
KINGDOM ONLY THROUGH THE NARROW GATE." THE HIGHWAY TO HELL, OR
IT MEANS THE PATHWAY TO HELL, IS BROAD. IT'S A BROAD PATH, AND
THE GATE IS WIDE FOR THE MANY, CATCH THIS, WHO CHOOSE THAT WAY.
THAT MEANS YOU HAVE A CHOICE. YOU CAN TAKE YOURSELF TO THE
PATH OF DESTRUCTION, OR YOU CAN TAKE YOURSELF TO GOD'S PLANNED
HEAVEN FOR YOU. HELL WAS NOT CREATED FOR MANKIND, BUT IT'S
WHERE PEOPLE WILL END UP IF THEY DON'T MAKE A DECISION FOR HIM.
JESUS SAYS, "I'M THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. NO MAN
COMES TO THE FATHER EXCEPT BY ME." AND THAT'S BECAUSE OF SIN
ENTERING THE WORLD. HE'S OUR ONLY WAY TO HAVE THAT SIN
COVERED. I WANT YOU TO BOW YOUR HEADS WITH ME TODAY, IF YOU
WOULD, QUICKLY. IF YOU'RE WATCHING ONLINE, I WANT YOU TO
PRAY WITH ME TODAY. MAYBE THERE'S SOMEONE IN THIS
CONGREGATION I BELIEVE THERE'S MOSTLY BELIEVERS HERE BUT MAYBE
THERE'S SOMEONE HERE TODAY, AND YOU SAY, PASTOR DOUG, I'VE NEVER
MADE JESUS CHRIST THE LORD OF MY LIFE. I DON'T WANT TO GO THE WAY
OF DESTRUCTION. I WANT TO BE IN HEAVEN. I WANT GOD'S PLAN OF
ABUNDANCE FOR MY LIFE. I WANT THE GOOD THINGS THAT PASTOR HANK
WAS TALKING ABOUT. AND IF THAT'S YOU TODAY AND YOU SAY, I NEED TO
REPENT AND MAKE TODAY MY DAY TO FOLLOW GOD AND TO CHOOSE HIM, TO
CHOOSE THE PATH OF LIFE, IF THIS IS YOUR DAY, WE'RE PRAYING FOR
YOU TODAY THAT YOU MAKE THAT DECISION. DON'T THINK ABOUT
OTHERS AROUND YOU AND WHAT THEY MAY THINK. ONLY THINK ABOUT WHAT
GOD IS THINKING ABOUT YOU NOW. ARE YOU NUMBERED AMONG HIS
PEOPLE, AMONG THE CHOSEN PEOPLE? THAT'S THE QUESTION YOU NEED TO
ASK YOURSELF. OR MAYBE YOU FOLLOWED HIM AT ONE TIME, BUT
NOW YOU'VE GOTTEN OFF. YOU'VE GOTTEN IN THE WRONG CIRCLE OF
RELATIONSHIPS OR YOU'VE GOTTEN ON A WRONG PATH. THAT HAPPENS TO
PEOPLE. IT'S NOT UNUSUAL THAT THAT CAN HAPPEN. BUT YOU CAN
COME BACK TO HIM. THAT'S THE GOOD NEWS. SO I'M GOING TO ASK
YOU A QUESTION TODAY. IS THERE ANYONE HERE AND YOU'D SAY,
PASTOR DOUG, I NEED PRAYER TODAY. I WANT TO COME BACK TO
GOD, OR I WANT TO MAKE JESUS CHRIST THE LORD OF MY LIFE. IS
THERE ANYONE HERE THAT YOU WOULD SAY THAT? I'M GOING TO COUNT TO
THREE, AND IF YOU WOULD RAISE YOUR HAND, THEN I CAN SEE YOU.
WE'RE GOING TO PRAY FOR YOU. ONE, TWO, THREE. ANYONE HERE
TODAY, YOU'D RAISE YOUR HAND BOLDLY AND SAY, I NEED PRAYER. I
NEED TO MAKE JESUS CHRIST THE LORD OF MY LIFE. MAYBE YOU'RE
SITTING IN YOUR HOME OR YOUR PLACE OF WORK, WHEREVER YOU'RE
AT. GOD CAN SEE YOUR HAND. IS THERE A HAND THAT I SEE UP HERE?
OR IS THAT JUST SOMEONE ITCHING THEIR EAR? MAYBE NOT. OK. I WANT
TO MAKE SURE I'M JUST LOOKING AROUND. THE LIGHTS ARE SOMETIMES
HARD TO TELL. USHERS, HELP ME IF THERE'S ANYONE HERE. AND YOU
SAY, I NEED PRAYER TODAY. I WANT TO MAKE A DECISION FOR CHRIST.
I'M BOLD. I'M NOT AFRAID TO DO THAT. I NEED TO DO THAT TODAY.
YOU NEED TO DO THAT TODAY. OK. I DON'T SEE ANY HANDS. LET'S PRAY
TOGETHER. AND IF YOU'RE AT HOME WATCHING US OR WHEREVER YOU'RE
AT, YOU CAN AGREE WITH ME. REPEAT AFTER ME. FATHER, I COME
TO YOU FOR YOUR MERCY. I BELIEVE THAT JESUS CHRIST WILL SAVE ME
TODAY. I DESIRE TO MAKE JESUS THE LORD OF MY LIFE. COME INTO
MY LIFE. CHANGE ME. MAKE ME A NEW CREATION, AND I WILL SERVE
YOU ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE. FORGIVE ME FOR SIN, AND PUT ME
ON YOUR PATH TO GOODNESS AND OVERCOMING. I WANT TO BE COUNTED
AMONG THE CHOSEN OF GOD. AMEN. AND IF YOU PRAYED THAT PRAYER
TODAY, YOU MADE THAT DECISION, YOU'RE ON THE PATH OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS. AND OUR PRAYER LINE IS AVAILABLE, 855-777-7907.
TWENTY-FOUR HOURS A DAY YOU CAN CALL THAT PRAYER LINE. OUR
