(MUSIC)
GOOD MORNING, LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH. LET'S
RAISE UP THE PRAISE. HE DESERVES ALL HONOR, ALL
GLORY, AND ALL PRAISE THIS MORNING, AMEN.
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
HALLELUJAH. AMEN. HALLELUJAH. WELL, GOD, WE WORSHIP YOU. WE
HONOR YOU. WE WELCOME YOU TODAY. GOD, WE ASK THAT YOUR PRESENCE
WOULD BE AMAZING TODAY. EVERYONE IN THE SOUND OF MY VOICE WILL
RECEIVE A TOUCH, NOT OF MY MIGHT OR POWER, BUT BY YOUR SPIRIT.
AND THOSE THAT LOVE THE LORD AND AGREE WITH THAT SAID, AMEN. WOW,
THAT IS A WARM AMEN. WE NEEDED IT. WE NEEDED IT. WE NEEDED IT.
ALL RIGHT, HOW MANY OF YOU, AND DON'T LOOK AT
PASTOR MIKE BACK THERE, BUT HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE
HAD ENOUGH OF THIS ALREADY, THE SNOW?
(CONGREGATION CHEERING)
AND YEAH, I TELL YOU, I LOVED IT WHEN IT WAS COMING DOWN AND I
THOUGHT IT LOOKED GREAT, BUT NOBODY FORECAST ALL THIS SNOW,
DID THEY? IT'S LIKE, IT WAS NOT EVEN IN THE FORECAST. SO HOW DID
THAT HAPPEN? I DON'T KNOW. I'M TELLING YOU, SO I HAVE TO HAVE A
VOTE. HOW MANY OF YOU THINK THIS IS THE LAST BIG SNOW OR WE GOT
ANOTHER ONE COMING? LAST BIG SNOW. ALL RIGHT, HOW MANY OF YOU
THINK WE GOT ANOTHER ONE COMING? OKAY, LOOK AT ALL YOU DOUBTERS
OUT THERE. ALL RIGHT. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S PROPHETIC OR
THEY'RE JUST HOPING. YOU KNOW, I WAS JUST THINKING, THAT REMINDED
ME OF SOMETHING. I WAS GONNA SHARE THIS TODAY. I'M GONNA SEE
IF I HAVE IT. SO I DID FIND THE FORECAST. AND LET ME SEE IF I
CAN READ IT TO YOU. SO, NO, I DID FIND IT. DID YOU HEAR
PEOPLE SAY NO? THEY'RE SAYING SNOW IS POSSIBLE, AND IT'S GOING
TO BE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 1 TO 119 INCHES. IT'S GOING TO START AT
12, MAYBE AROUND 3, MAYBE NOT AT ALL. IT MIGHT BE ALSO 73 TODAY.
SO THIS IS OMAHA'S WEATHER. THAT'S IT. YOU KNOW WHAT? ON
THURSDAY, WHEN IT SNOWED, EVERYBODY'S CANCELING AND
REARRANGING APPOINTMENTS. ALL THE SCHOOLS CANCELED, AND THE
SNOW DIDN'T COME TILL LIKE 4:00. I DON'T KNOW. THAT'S WHAT
HAPPENS. MAN, I JUST WANT TO GO AWAY. I WANT THE WARM WEATHER.
HOW ABOUT YOU? THE SECTION UP THERE, YOU ALL MUST LIKE WINTER.
I DIDN'T HEAR ANYBODY SAY DO YOU ALL LIKE WINTER? NO. ALL RIGHT,
WELL, HEY, THOSE OF YOU WE WANT TO WELCOME THAT ARE WATCHING
TODAY, OUR FRIENDS AND OUR FAMILY AROUND THE WORLD,
E-MEMBERS, WRITE IN YOUR COMMENTS IF YOU LIKE SNOW. YOU
CAN'T SAY THAT IF YOU'RE IN FLORIDA. IF YOU REALLY LIKE
SNOW, YOU WOULD BE IN A WARMER OR A COOLER CLIMATE. YES, TRUE.
TRUE. BUT I DON'T LIKE IT. I'M READY FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
WELL, LISTEN, TODAY WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE WHAT WE'VE BEEN
TALKING ABOUT, SHIFT CHANGE. HOW MANY OF YOU BELIEVE THAT WE'RE
IN A SHIFT? WE'RE IN A CHANGE. YES. AND WE'RE GONNA CARRY WHAT
WAS REALLY KIND OF A NO BRAINER, BUT I HADN'T THOUGHT OF IT UNTIL
ROBERTS WAS REALLY PULLING OUT, HELPING US TO UNDERSTAND THE
SEASON THAT WE'RE IN, THAT WE'RE IN A TIME OF REFORMATION. AND
REFORMATION, THE SIMPLEST DEFINITION, FOR THOSE OF YOU
THAT ARE WATCHING, IS CHANGE. AND SO I BEGAN TO REALLY LOOK AT
A LOT OF THINGS AND REALLY COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT NO
WONDER THERE IS ALL THIS WHAT SEEMS LIKE CHAOS. IT'S ALL PART
OF THE PROCESS. BUT IS IT WORTH IT? AND WHEN YOU STUDY
REFORMATION OF OLD OR YOU SEE THE PATTERN IN SCRIPTURE, YOU
HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING GREAT THAT
COMES AT THE END OF THE STORM. SO WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT
SOME OF THAT TODAY. SO IT'S GOING TO BE REALLY, REALLY
EXCITING. AND THEN HOW MANY OF YOU, SO ALEC, WHERE ARE YOU AT?
ARE YOU, IS HE, SO ALEC IN THE MEDIA, THERE, HE'S OVER THERE.
SO HE GOT ME AN ASTRONOMY BOOK. HOW MANY OF YOU LIKE ASTRONOMY?
ANYBODY LIKE ASTRONOMY, TELESCOPES, STUFF LIKE THAT? SO
I DISCOVERED SOMETHING THAT SCIENTISTS HAVE BEEN STUDYING.
HONEY, THEY'RE LAUGHING AS YOU'RE SAYING THAT. THIS IS
SERIOUS, OKAY. I'M HEARING THAT. ALL RIGHT, THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE
WATCHING, THIS IS SERIOUS SCIENTIFIC I GUARANTEE YOU, LOOK
AT SOCIAL, THERE'S LAUGHING EMOJIS. YOU'VE GOTTA LET ME SAY
THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THAT IS FASCINATING. ALL RIGHT, DO TELL.
ALL RIGHT, NOW I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT I WAS GONNA, HOW I WAS
GONNA SAY. OKAY, SO THERE WAS, OKAY, SO SCIENTISTS HAVE BEEN
STUDYING THE ASTRONOMY, THE ATMOSPHERE, SPACE, AND THEY HAVE
DISCOVERED SOUND. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GO WOW. WOW. WOW,
WOW, WOW. AND SO THEY CAPTURED TWO HELIUM ATOMS, AND THEY WERE
LAUGHING. TWO HELIUM ATOMS LAUGHING. AND WHEN THEY LISTENED
TO THEM, THEY MADE THE SOUND OF HE-HE.
SO IT WAS REALLY, REALLY AMAZING. SO...
(CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
I SAID ALL THAT BECAUSE YOU GUYS RUINED IT. YOU RUINED IT. I WAS
TRYING TO SAY IT, AND YOU RUINED IT. THE THE THE THE
PONTIFICATION PART WENT LIKE THIS AT THE BEGINNING BECAUSE
YOU STARTED LAUGHING BEFORE I COULD SAY IT. BECAUSE WE KNOW
WHAT'S COMING. LET'S WORSHIP GOD. ALL RIGHT. AND BY THE WAY,
THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE LIKE, WHY DOES HE DO THIS? BECAUSE GOD
SPOKE TO MY HEART AND TOLD ME THAT WHEN A NATION IS COMING OUT
OF CAPTIVITY, GOD WILL BEGIN TO BRING LAUGHTER. HE WANTS US TO
LAUGH. I LOVE THAT. AND THAT'S PSALM, LISTEN, THAT'S PSALM 126.
THAT'S THE BIBLE, YEAH, COME ON. IT SAYS, "WHEN ZION WAS IN
CAPTIVITY, GOD BEGAN TO FILL THEIR MOUTHS," WHICH WE'RE READY
TO DO WITH SINGING, "AND THEIR TONGUES WITH LAUGHTER." MAYBE I
HAD IT BACKWARDS, BUT ANYWAY, YOU GET IT. LAUGHTER AND
SINGING. YEP, THAT'S GOOD. WELL, ALSO COMES WITH THAT PRAISE AND
WORSHIP. SO WE NEED TO WORSHIP GOD AS STRONG AND AS BOLD AS WE
KNOW HOW TODAY. COME ON, IT MIGHT BE COLD OUTSIDE, BUT LET'S
HEAT IT UP. IN THE HOUSE OF GOD, THROW THOSE HANDS UP TO HEAVEN.
SAY, LORD, WHAT AN AMAZING DAY. IT'S SO EXCITING TO BE IN YOUR
HOUSE. GOD, IT'S AN HONOR TO PRAISE YOU. IT'S MY HONOR TO
WORSHIP YOU. FILL THIS ROOM WITH YOUR PRESENCE. AND I PROMISE TO
GIVE YOU MY VERY BEST PRAISE. SHOUT LIKE
YOU BELIEVE THAT. AND LET'S PRAISE THE LORD.
(MUSIC)
COME ON, CHURCH!
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
COME ON, THIS MORNING, LET'S DECLARE IT.
THE SAME POWER THAT'S IN YOU...
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
TO THE ONLY ONE WHO'S WORTHY OF THE GLORY. TO THE ONLY ONE
SEATED ON THE THRONE. TO THE ONLY ONE WHO'S WORTHY. WE
MAGNIFY YOU, JESUS. WE MAGNIFY YOU, JESUS. OH, LORD OF GLORY.
OH, LORD OF GLORY. OH, GOD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. OH, GOD OF
JUSTICE. OH, GOD OF MERCY. YOU ARE SEATED. YOU ARE SEATED.
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
WE PREPARE THE WAY. WE PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD.
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
YESHUA, YOU ARE HIGH AND LIFTED UP. YOU'RE LIFTED UP.
YESHUA, YOU ARE HIGH AND LIFTED UP. YOU’RE LIFTED UP.
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND OF OUR FATHER, YOU'RE LIFTED UP. ABOVE
ALL KINGS AND KINGDOMS, YOU’RE LIFTED UP. YOU'RE LIFTED UP.
(WORSHIP MUSIC)
WE WORSHIP YOU, YESHUA. COME ON, ALL OVER THIS ROOM, LET GOD HEAR
YOU SING TO HIM. YOU THAT ARE WATCHING AROUND THE WORLD, UTTER
HIS NAME, YESHUA. LIFT YOUR PRAISE, YOUR HEART, YOUR HANDS
UNTO GOD. WE WORSHIP YOU, KING OF ALL KINGS, LORD OF ALL LORDS,
THE SPLENDID GOD, THE SUPREME GOD, THE GLORIOUS, HOLY ONE OF
ALL THE EARTH, THE MAJESTIC MASTER OF WISDOM AND UTTERANCE,
STRENGTH AND POWER. WE WORSHIP YOU. WE STAND IN THE ADORATION,
THE EXALTATION OF OUR KING, YOU, YESHUA. OH, HOW WE HONOR YOU. SO
BEAUTIFUL, ARE YOU GOD. AND HOW BEAUTIFUL THE MENTION OF THY
NAME, YESHUA, YESHUA. YOUR SOUND IS BEING HEARD IN THE EARTH. THE
PRAISES FROM YOUR PEOPLE ARE GIVING YOU ADORATION,
ACKNOWLEDGING THAT YOU ARE THE KING OF THE NATIONS. YOU,
YESHUA. DO YOU HEAR THE SOUND IN THE EARTH, YESHUA, OF YOUR
PEOPLE WHO HAVE UTTERED WITH THEIR MOUTHS THAT YOU ARE THEIR
LORD, YOU ARE OUR KING? MAY YOU BE PLEASED TODAY AS YOU STAND TO
SEE THE ADORATION THAT COMES FROM US IN THIS HOUSE OF
WORSHIP. ALL OVER THE EARTH AS ONE WE WORSHIP YOU NOW AND WE
GIVE OUR PRAISE, OUR WORSHIP TO YOU IN APPRECIATION OF YOUR
SACRIFICE AND YOUR BLOOD THAT SPEAKS YESHUA. OUR COVENANT OF
MERCY THROUGH YOUR BLOOD. WE WORSHIP, WE WORSHIP YOU. WE
WORSHIP YOU, YESHUA, YESHUA. HOW LOVELY ARE YOU. HOW BEAUTIFUL
YOU ARE, YESHUA. COME ON, WORSHIP HIM, WORSHIP HIM. OH, WE
JUST WANT YOU TO SMILE. WE WANT YOU TO OPEN YOUR ARMS AND
RECEIVE OUR LOVE IN YOUR HEART, YESHUA. THIS IS OUR GIFT TO YOU.
THIS IS WHAT WE BRING, OUR WORSHIP TO YOU, TO TOUCH YOU IN
YOUR VERY HEART, YESHUA. IT IS OUR PRIVILEGE TO WORSHIP YOU AND
TO BRING THANKSGIVING TO THE HIGHEST ONE OF ALL, THAT IS YOU.
AND WE WORSHIP YOU. WE WORSHIP YOU. COME ON, LET HIM HEAR YOU.
LOVE HIM. OH, WE LOVE YOU. WE LOVE YOU. WE LOVE YOU. WE LOVE
YOU, YESHUA. WE WORSHIP YOU. YOU ARE HIGH AND LIFTED UP. OH, YOU
ARE HIGH AND LIFTED UP. I HAVE DECLARED IN MY WORD, AND I SPOKE
TO THOSE WHO DOUBTED, IN THE DAYS THAT I WALKED THIS EARTH,
AND I SPOKE AND I DECLARED, WHEN YOU SEE THE SON OF MAN LIFTED
UP, YOU WILL KNOW THAT I AM HE, THAT I AM GOD, I AM, AND I WILL
DRAW ALL MEN UNTO MYSELF. AND SO I HAVE BEEN LIFTED, RESURRECTED,
AND NOW I AM ASCENDED, RECEIVING YOUR WORSHIP TODAY. BUT I WANT
YOU TO SEE AND TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING. WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN
YOU LOOK AT THE EARTH, THE EVENTS THAT ARE TAKING PLACE? DO
YOU SEE IT THROUGH YOUR OWN LENS? FEAR, ANXIETY, CONFUSION?
OR DO YOU BELIEVE WHAT HAS BEEN GIVEN TO YOU THROUGH THE LENS
AND THE CAMERAS OF THOSE WHO SPEAK TO YOU THROUGH YOUR MEDIA?
OR DO YOU SEE IT THROUGH THE LENS OF YOUR GOD WHO IS DRAWING
THE NATIONS ONTO HIMSELF? FOR THERE ARE NATIONS, FOR THERE ARE
A STIRRING AND SOUNDS AND MOVEMENTS FROM THE PEOPLE AND
THEY ARE CRYING UNTO ME IN SECRET AND IN PUBLIC AND I HAVE
LISTENED TO THE SOUNDS AND THEY HAVE COME INTO MY EARS AND I
SPEAK THIS NOW IN THE TIME OF THE HARSHNESS THAT HAVE BEEN
UPON THE INNOCENT, THE ABUSE OF WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO CHILDREN.
I HAVE WATCHED, I HAVE SEEN THE INJUSTICE, I HAVE GRIEVED AT THE
LEVEL OF CORRUPTION OF SOME THAT YOU HAVE HERALD AS HEROES. AND
YET I KNOW THEIR EVIL DARK DEEDS IN SECRET. BUT NOW IS THE TIME
THAT THESE CRIES OF THE INNOCENT, THE SUFFERING, THE
PERSECUTED, AND THOSE WHO ARE CRYING OUT FOR A NEW DAY HAVE
COME UP INTO MY EARS AND I SAY IT IS THE EARS OF THE LORD
SABBAOTH, THE LORD OF ANGEL ARMIES, THE LORD OF THE FIGHT,
THE LORD OF WAR. AND THIS IS WHAT I'M DOING AT THIS TIME. I
HAVE DECLARED MY RIGHTEOUSNESS AND MY JUSTICE TO COME AND IN NO
WAY TO CLEAR THE GUILTY. AND THERE WILL BE ARRESTS THAT YOU
WILL SEE AND IT WILL ARREST YOUR ATTENTION. AND YOU WILL SAY, I
NEVER THOUGHT THAT THIS ONE WOULD EVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
FOR THEIR CRIMES. GOD SAYS, WHEN YOU SEE AND YOU HEAR, THE
EVIDENCE THAT WILL BE SHOWN, FOR MUCH EVIDENCE WILL BE REVEALED,
DO NOT REJOICE, BUT INSTEAD REJOICE OF MY RIGHTEOUSNESS AND
JUSTICE. FOR THIS IS THE TIME THAT I HAVE DECLARED THAT I
SHALL COME TO THE NATIONS WHO HAVE BEEN LIKE PRODIGAL NATIONS
WHO HAVE WALKED AWAY. YES, I SPEAK OF YOU EVEN UNITED STATES,
BUT YET YOU'RE RETURNING. I'M LISTENING. I'M WATCHING, AND I'M
WAITING FOR THE DAY THAT YOU GATHER WITH ME TO REDEDICATE
YOURSELF IN THIS LAND TOO, TO THE HONOR OF YOUR GOD. BUT I
SPEAK NOW, FOR VERY SOON THERE IS BUT ANOTHER NATION THAT
WALKED WITH ME, TALKED WITH ME, RAN WITH ME, THAT HAD TYRANTS
COME AND BRING THE PEOPLE AND THE LAND INTO BONDAGE. I SPEAK
OF IRAN, FOR THEIR WHISPERS ARE MANY, THEIR CRIES ARE GREAT, AND
IT IS COMING TO THE EARS OF THE LORD SABBOATH. THEREFORE DO NOT
BELIEVE THE NARRATIVES, THE LIES, THE THINGS THAT WILL BE
SAID IN THE COMING DAYS. YES, IN THE COMING WEEKS IT IS GOING TO
QUICKLY NOW ACCELERATE AND MERGE. AND I'M GOING TO COMPRESS
TIME SO THAT THE SUFFERING CAN RECEIVE THEIR DAY. AND I SPEAK
BECAUSE AS YOU SEE THAT THERE WILL BE FLAMES OF FIRE, STREAKS
OF FIRE THAT SHALL FILL THE SKIES OF IRAN. AND THERE WILL BE
SOUND OF THUNDER SO IT WOULD SEEM THAT WILL HIT THE STREETS
OF EXPLOSIONS AND FIRE THAT WILL BE SEEN AND SMOKE THAT WILL
ARISE, BUT YET IT SHALL BE SETTLED. FOR I WILL STAND AS THE
FATHER WHO RAN TOWARDS THE PRODIGAL. IRAN, LISTEN, IRAN,
I RUN FOR YOU. AND WHEN THE DUST AND THE SMOKE SETTLES, THEY WILL
SAY, "WHERE IS YOUR LEADER?" BUT THEN IT WILL BE KNOWN AND SEEN,
"THEY ARE NO MORE." AND A NEW THING SHALL
ARISE, FOR I WILL RUN OVER IRAN, AND I WILL
ACCELERATE NOT JUST WHAT IS DECLARED IN YOUR
NAME, BUT I WILL ACCELERATE YOUR FREEDOM. AND I WILL STAND IN THE
MIDST OF IRAN, AND THERE WILL BE MY FEET THAT WILL REST THERE.
AND A NEW DAY SHALL ARISE, AND WOMEN SHALL RISE IN PLACES OF
POWER. AND THERE WILL BE STREETS, YES, IN HEAVEN OF GOLD,
BUT THERE WILL BE SOMETHING OF GOLD, PRECIOUS IN MY SIGHT, THAT
WILL HAVE THE IMPRINT OF AN EAGLE UPON IT. YES, THIS NATION,
IT SHALL BE GOLD IN THE STREETS. I SPEAK OF NEW THINGS SHALL
ARISE. OLD THINGS WILL BE TORN DOWN. AND EVEN THE HOUSES OF
WORSHIP SHALL BE NOT UNDERGROUND, BUT THEY WILL BE
SEEN FROM ABOVE, SAYS THE SPIRIT OF GOD. AND THIS WILL CREATE A
SHAKING THAT WILL BE SEEN THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST. PAY
ATTENTION TO THE NATIONS WHERE THEY THINK THAT MUHAMMAD, THEY
THINK ISLAM, ALLAH, IS THE SAME OF THE GOD WHO SPEAKS TO YOU AT
THIS TIME. NAY! I WILL SHOW THE EARTH WHO I AM, SAYS THE LORD.
PAY ATTENTION. IRAN, YOUR SUFFERING IS COMING TO AN END.
SAYS THE SPIRIT OF GOD. NOW FATHER, WE PRAY FOR THEM. NOT BY
OUR MIGHT, NOT BY OUR POWER. WE PRAY A COVERING OF THY PEACE AND
OF THY BLOOD. WE PRAY A PROTECTION OVER THE INNOCENT. WE
PRAY A PROTECTION OVER OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS. WE CRY
MERCY OVER THE LAND OF IRAN. AND WE PRAY AS YOU COME TO BRING
JUSTICE, WE ARE ASKING YOU DO A SWIFT WORK OF YOUR HAND THAT
ERADICATES THE ENEMY, REMOVES THEM FROM POWER, AND LIBERATE
YOUR PEOPLE TO A PLACE OF PRESERVATION, FREEDOM, AND
PROTECTION. COME ON, LET'S YELL OUT THE NAME, YESHUA! YESHUA!
YESHUA! WE WORSHIP YOU. WE WORSHIP YOU. WE WORSHIP YOU. NOW
SOME OF YOU IN THE SOUND OF MY VOICE, I SENSE YOU'VE BEEN A
LITTLE WEARY. I WANT YOU TO PUT YOUR HAND ON YOURSELF AND THOSE
OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING. FATHER, I PRAY FOR EVERY PERSON
IN THE SOUND OF MY VOICE. AND I PRAY AGAINST THE SPIRIT OF
LETHARGY, WEARINESS, TIREDNESS, FATIGUE. AND WE ARE RESTED IN
THE AUTHORITY OF THE NAME OF YESHUA. WE BIND EVERY SPIRIT OF
WITCHCRAFT AND DIVINATION THAT WOULD TRY TO TROUBLE YOU, WEARY
YOU. WE COME AGAINST ANY AND ALL DEMONS OF HELL THAT WOULD TRY TO
AFFLICT YOU. AND WE COMMAND IN YESHUA'S NAME THAT THE SAME
SPIRIT OF GOD THAT QUICKENED JESUS' MORTAL BODY NOW WILL
TOUCH YOUR MORTAL BODY. EVERY CELL, EVERY FIBER, EVERY ORGAN
OF YOUR BEING BE FILLED WITH THE ZOE, THE GOD KIND OF LIFE THAT
BRINGS AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF EZEKIEL TO THE DRY BONES, THAT
YOUR BONES LIVE, THAT THERE IS LIFE ON THE INSIDE OF YOU THAT
BRINGS STRENGTH AND HEALTH AND WHOLENESS. I RELEASE THAT
ANOINTING NOW. NO MORE WEARINESS. SUPERNATURAL
STRENGTH, ENDURANCE. WE EXCHANGE OUR STRENGTH FOR YOUR STRENGTH.
WE WILL RUN AND NOT GROW WEARY. WE WILL WALK AND NOT FAINT. IN
JESUS' NAME. I FEEL TO DO SOMETHING, I DON'T THINK I'VE
EVER DONE THIS. I WANT SOMEBODY TO LOOK ONLINE, FIND A NAME OF
SOMEBODY, AND I WANNA PRAY PERSONALLY FOR A PERSON THAT YOU
PICK OUT. PICK OUT SOMEBODY REAL QUICK. GIVE ME A NAME OF
SOMEBODY. WE LOVE OUR ONLINE PEOPLE. FIND ME A NAME. I'M ONE
OF THE SOCIAL MEDIA LOVERS. I JUST WANNA DO THIS FOR THOSE OF
YOU THAT ARE WATCHING. I WISH, YOU KNOW, WE JUST PRAYED FOR
YOU, BUT I WANNA PRAY SPECIFICALLY FOR SOMEBODY. SO
PICK SOMEBODY, WHATEVER NAME, WHATEVER REACHES, YOU SEE A
PERSON'S NAME, YOU FIND SOMEBODY, AMEN. MAN, I'M TELLING
YOU, I SAW, IT WAS REALLY INTERESTING, I SAW A NEW IRAN.
NOW MY HEAD GOES TILT BECAUSE IT DON'T LOOK LIKE IT, RIGHT? OR
WHAT I ALWAYS THOUGHT. OKAY, WHO DO YOU GOT? CAN YOU GRAB A
MICROPHONE? YOU'RE GONNA HELP PRAY FOR HER, COME ON. THERE'S A
SHARON I'M SEEING. OKAY, WHAT'S HER NAME? SHARON RENEE, THIS IS
ON LORD OF HOSTS FACEBOOK. IS HER NAME, SO JUST ONE PERSON,
SHARON? YEP, THAT'S THE FIRST ONE I SAW. AND HER NAME IS
RENEE, SHARON RENEE? NO, IT'S TWO PEOPLE, SHARON WAS THE FIRST
I SAW. OKAY, SHARON, OKAY, YOU PRAY FOR SHARON. YES. AND I PRAY
FOR RENEE. ALL RIGHT, GO. AND THERE'S A GUY HERE, JOHNNY. SO
WE'LL PRAY FOR THAT TOO. SO FATHER, RIGHT NOW WE STRETCH OUR
HANDS TOWARDS SHARON. SHARON AND RENEE. WHO IS WATCHING ON LORD
OF HOSTS FACEBOOK PAGE RIGHT NOW IN THE NAME OF JESUS. WE SPEAK
TOWARD YOU AND WE SAY THAT IN THE NAME OF THE LORD THAT
WHATEVER YOU'RE FACING, WHATEVER YOU'RE DEALING WITH, WE SAY IT
SHIFTS FOR THE BETTER. FOR ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD
TO THOSE THAT LOVE GOD ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO
HIS PURPOSE. SO WE SPEAK HEALTH TO YOU, SHARON. WE SPEAK
PROVISION TO YOU. AND WE DECLARE IN THE NAME OF JESUS, THE SEASON
OF ANSWERED PRAYER COMES UPON YOU. WE PRAY OVER RENEE AND WE
SAY RENEE, IN JESUS' NAME, RECEIVE THE SAME BLESSING THAT
ALL OF THE PROMISES OF GOD TO YOU ARE YES AND AMEN. AND WE
PROPHESY INTO YOUR LIFE THAT YOU BEGIN TO SEE A RESURGENCE OF
BLESSING IN A FRESH NEW WAY. WE ALSO PRAY FOR JOHNNY AND WE SAY
IN THE NAME OF JESUS THAT HE RECEIVES NOW ALL OF THE PROMISES
OF GOD. EVERY PRAYER BEING ANSWERED. WE REBUKE THE DEVIL
AGAINST THESE PEOPLE AND WE SAY IN THE AUTHORITY OF JESUS' NAME,
SATAN'S WORKS ARE BOUND, HIS PLANS ARE HALTED, AND EVERY
SCHEME COMES TO NOTHING. IN THE AUTHORITY OF JESUS' NAME, WE
CALL THEM BLESSED. THANK YOU, LORD. AMEN. AMEN. AND AMEN.
AMEN, THAT'S GOOD. WELL, WE SURE LOVE THEM. WHY DON'T YOU TURN
AROUND AND WAVE AT THEM REAL QUICK. BLOW 'EM A KISS, TELL 'EM
YOU LOVE 'EM. ALL RIGHT. AND ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE ON FACEBOOK AND
ALL THE CHANNELS. PRAISE GOD. WELL, WHY DON'T YOU DO THIS? WHY
DON'T YOU FIND SOMEBODY AROUND YOU, GREET THEM, AND
THEN SAY, "I BET I KNOW WHAT YOUR FAVORITE KIND OF CAR IS."
SEE IF YOU CAN GUESS IT. AND DON'T SAY, "I DON'T KNOW." OKAY.

WILL BE SOME MINISTRY IN ADDITION TO ALL THE FUN AND THE
CRAZY STUFF. BUT I DO ENCOURAGE YOU TO BE HERE AND BE PART OF

KNOW, I MEAN, SOMETIMES WE LIKE, SEE, WE'LL JUST HOVER ALONG WITH
REGISTRATIONS AND LIKE THE LAST THREE WEEKS IT EXPLODES. SO IT

JUST WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO REGISTER EARLY. IF YOU KNOW
YOU'RE COMING, EVEN IF YOU'RE ON THE STAFF, IF YOU'RE IN THE

YEAR," OR IF YOUR NAME'S NOT ON THE LIST, GET ON THE LIST.
THERE'S NO REASON NOT TO BE THERE. SO GO AHEAD AND GET
REGISTERED FOR THAT. AND I ALSO WANT TO REMIND EVERYBODY, PASTOR
HANK IS GOING TO BE PREACHING THIS WEDNESDAY. AND HE KIND OF
HAD BEEN FEELING, HOW MANY OF YOU WERE HERE WHEN HE'S BEEN
TALKING ABOUT DOING SOME TEACHING ON THE PROPHETIC. AND
SO MANY GOOD THINGS THAT HE HAS BEEN SHARING. I'VE REALLY
ENJOYED THAT. SO THESE NEXT, I THINK HE'S GOING TO DO TWO
WEDNESDAYS, TWO WEDNESDAYS, THIS NEXT ONE AND THE ONE AFTER,
FIRST ONE IN MARCH. SO COME OUT ON A WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND WITH
ALL THE PROPHETIC CRAZINESS GOING ON AND ALL THE DIFFERENT
PEOPLE SAYING THIS AND SAYING THAT, WE NEED SOME GOOD SOUND
DOCTRINAL TRUTH. AND SO, I ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME ON OUT FOR
THAT. AMEN? ALL RIGHT, VERY QUICKLY, PUT UP OUR OFFERING
SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY. I ALWAYS LIKE TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE MINI
SERMON ABOUT FINANCES AND SOMETHING PERTAINING TO YOUR
GIVING BECAUSE HOW MANY OF YOU KNOW THE BIBLE SAYS EVERYTHING
WE DO, WE DON'T JUST DO IT BY ROUTINE, EVEN THOUGH HABITS AND
ROUTINES ARE IMPORTANT, WE DO IT BY FAITH. OKAY, WE DON'T JUST
WORSHIP ON A SUNDAY BECAUSE WE KNOW HOW TO LIFT OUR HANDS IN
CHURCH. WE WANT TO LEAN IN AND PRESS IN TO GOD AND HAVE AN
EXPERIENCE WITH HIM. SAME WAY WITH OUR GIVING, WE DO IT
BECAUSE WE WANT TO BE PRESSED IN IN FAITH FOR WHATEVER GOD
COMMANDS AND HE ADDS HIS PROMISES TO. SO LET ME JUST READ
THIS SCRIPTURE TO YOU. IT SAYS THIS, YOU PROBABLY KNOW THIS
PASSAGE, BUT I JUST FELT IT WAS SO ENCOURAGING TODAY. ISAIAH
55:11 SAID, "SO SHALL MY WORD BE THAT GOES FORTH "OUT OF MY
MOUTH," RIGHT? IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S DEPENDABLE. THE VERSE
BEFORE IT TALKS ABOUT HOW IF YOU SOW SEED IN THE GROUND, YOU CAN
TRUST AT SOME POINT THAT SEED'S GONNA GERMINATE AND IT'S GONNA
RAIN. YOU CAN BANK ON THAT EVERY SINGLE SUMMER, RIGHT? AND THERE
IS LIFE THAT COMES, SEED TIME AND HARVEST. THIS IS WHAT GOD'S
SAYING. AND IN THE SAME WAY, "SO IS MY WORD THAT GOES FORTH FROM
MY MOUTH, IT SHALL NOT," SOMEBODY SAY, "IT SHALL NOT
RETURN UNTO ME VOID, BUT IT WILL ACCOMPLISH," THIS IS WHAT I WANT
YOU TO THINK ABOUT AS YOU'RE GIVING TODAY, "IT WILL
ACCOMPLISH THAT WHICH I PLEASE." WELL, DOES IT PLEASE GOD THAT HE
WILL OPEN THE WINDOWS OF HEAVEN AND POUR OUT A BLESSING IN THE
ATMOSPHERE OF GIVING OR IN THE ENVIRONMENT OF GIVING? OF
COURSE, THAT PLEASES GOD. WHAT GOD HAS PROMISED IN HIS WORD,
WEALTH AND RICHES SHALL BE IN THE HOUSE OF THE RIGHTEOUS. IF
GOD'S PROMISED THAT, IT PLEASES HIM. THAT IS A WORD THAT PLEASES
GOD. AND IT SAID, IT WILL PROSPER. SOMEBODY SAY PROSPER.
IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S GONNA PRODUCE A HARVEST IN THE THING
WHERE I SENT IT. NOW HERE'S THE PART, THIS IS THE RESULTS OF
THAT. FOR YOU SHALL GO OUT WITH JOY. HOW MANY OF YOU COULD USE
SOME JOY IN THE ROOM TODAY? YOU WANT THE JOY OF THE LORD TO
COVER YOUR LIFE? YOU'LL GO OUT WITH JOY. THAT'S WHAT I WANT YOU
TO EXPECT THIS MORNING. AND YOU WILL BE LED FORTH WITH PEACE.
FOR THE MOUNTAINS AND THE HILLS WILL BREAK FORTH BEFORE YOU INTO
SINGING. COME ON, THAT'S TALKING ABOUT A NEW SEASON. THIS IS WHAT
PASTOR'S BEEN PREACHING ALL THIS TIME. AND THE TREES OF THE FIELD
WILL CLAP THEIR HANDS. NOW, LOOK AT THIS PART. IN VERSE 13, IT
SAYS, "INSTEAD OF THE THORN "SHALL COME UP THE FIR TREE."
AND THAT HIT ME, AND I WROTE SOMETHING IN MY BIBLE. THIS WAS
YEARS AGO. I THOUGHT, WELL, LORD, WHY DID YOU PUT THAT?
INSTEAD OF THE THORN COMES UP THE FIR TREE. IN OTHER WORDS,
INSTEAD OF ALWAYS GETTING A NEGATIVE RESULT, YOU'RE GONNA
GET A GOOD RESULT. AND I THOUGHT ABOUT THAT, AND I WROTE IN
HERE, THE HOLY SPIRIT PROMPTED ME, AND I SAID, BECAUSE WE HAVE
TO EXPECT DIFFERENT. YOU KNOW, IF THE ENEMY HAS BEEN TRYING TO
SOW THORNS BY TRIALS IN YOUR LIFE, OR CHALLENGES, OR YOU'VE
FACED SOMETHING, OR YOU'VE GONE THROUGH WHAT PASTOR TOUCHED
ON TODAY, MAYBE A SEASON WHERE THERE'S SOME FATIGUE OR
TIREDNESS, OR YOU FEEL LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE ENEMY IS JUST PRESSED
IN AGAINST YOU IN SOME WAY. YOU KNOW, THE HAP, OR WELL, I GUESS
I SHOULD SAY IT LIKE THIS. THE DANGER THAT WE CAN ALL FALL INTO
AT SOME POINT IS TO KEEP EXPECTING NEGATIVE. BECAUSE
HUMAN NATURE BRACES FOR WHAT IT SEES. SEE, WE GO OFF THE NATURAL
SOMETIMES. ISN'T THAT TRUE? BUT HERE, GOD IS SAYING, "NO, I WANT
YOU TO EXPECT SOMETHING ELSE." OKAY, IT MIGHT HAVE LOOKED UP TO
NOW LIKE YOU ARE GONNA GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN, OR THAT
AGAIN, OR FACE THAT ANOTHER TIME, OR GET ANOTHER BAD TEST
RESULT. COME ON, OR FACE ANOTHER ISSUE ON YOUR JOB, OR ANOTHER
MONTH IN THE RED IN YOUR BUSINESS. IT MAY LOOK LIKE THAT.
THERE MAY BE NO INDICATION. THAT'S WHAT FAITH IS ABOUT.
THERE'S SOMETIMES NO INDICATION IN THE NATURAL. BUT HE SAID,
INSTEAD OF IT BEING NEGATIVE AGAIN, THIS IS MY PARAPHRASE,
INSTEAD OF ANOTHER NEGATIVE SITUATION IS GONNA COME UP A
BLESSING INSTEAD. INSTEAD OF THE BRIAR SHALL COME UP THE MYRTLE
TREE. IN OTHER WORDS, NOT ANOTHER NEGATIVE RESULT. COME
ON, SOMEBODY. AND IT SHALL BE FOR THE LORD A NAME. IN OTHER
WORDS, GOD IS GOING TO GET PRAISE JUST BECAUSE OF OUR
TESTIMONY. SO I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TODAY, WHATEVER
THE SITUATION IS, DON'T LOOK AT IT AND THINK, WELL, HERE WE GO
AGAIN. YOU KNOW, I THINK HERE WE GO AGAIN OUGHT TO BE STRUCK FROM
THE MOUTH OF EVERY CHRISTIAN. WELL, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE SAY
THINGS, WELL, WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME? WELL,
THAT'S WHY YOU SAY THAT. YOU GET WHAT YOU SAY. WELL, JUST MY
LUCK. WELL, SKIP THAT. WE KNOW WE SHOULDN'T BE SAYING THAT.
HEY, LUCK ISN'T EVEN OF GOD. PROVIDENCE IS OF GOD. GOD'S
PLANNING HIS PURPOSES OF HIM. SO DON'T JUST SAY, WELL, HERE WE GO
AGAIN, OR, OH, WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO? NO, EXPECT DIFFERENT. SAY,
YOU KNOW WHAT? I MAY HAVE HAD A CHALLENGE YESTERDAY. THERE MAY
HAVE BEEN SOME HARDSHIPS, COME ON, IN 2025. IT MAY HAVE LOOKED
BAD, BUT THIS TIME, COME ON SOMEBODY, THERE'S
GONNA BE A SHIFT. GOD SAID, "I'LL SEND MY WORD,
"AND IT WILL PRODUCE A HARVEST." HALLELUJAH.
(CONGREGATION CHEERING)
I'LL SAY THIS LAST THING, IT'S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT PASTOR HANK.
YOU KNOW, HE HAS COACHED ME SO MUCH. HE HAS CRAZY FAITH FOR
STUFF. I'M LIKE, HONEY, CAN YOU EVEN BELIEVE GOD FOR THAT? HE
GOES, WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHY NOT. GOD'S, AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
HE GETS, GOD, I MEAN, IT'S AMAZING TO ME. YOU KNOW, WHILE,
YOU KNOW, THE REST OF US, SOMETIMES ON STAFF, WE'RE ALL
LIKE PUTTING ON THE BRAKE, GOING, CAN WE DO THAT? I MEAN,
WHEN WE BUILT THIS BUILDING, HE KEPT ADDING THIS AND ADDING
THAT, AND I'M THINKING, HONEY, THERE'S A BUDGET. WE HAVE TO
HOLD TO THE BUDGET. YOU KNOW, MY MIND IS THINKING IN FINANCIAL
TERMS. HE'S LIKE, WE'RE GONNA GET IT. WE'RE GONNA GET IT. AND
HE WOULD TELL THE CONTRACTORS, ADD THAT, ADD THAT. AND WE'RE
ALL JUST SITTING THERE LIKE. I'M TELLING YOU, IT'S TIME FOR CRAZY
FAITH. IF THE DEVIL HAS SOWN SOME THORNS IN YOUR LIFE, WHEN
YOU PUT THAT TIDE, THEN THAT OFFERING IN YOUR HAND, YOU HOLD
IT UP BEFORE SATAN, AND YOU TELL HIM, "NO, THIS TIME'S GONNA BE
DIFFERENT." LOOK AT THIS AND WEEP, DEVIL. IN FACT, WE'RE
GONNA SAY THAT TODAY. JUST LOOK AT THIS AND WEEP. WHEN I PUT
THIS TITHE BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD, THE BIBLE SAID JESUS IS IN
HEAVEN, HE'S RECEIVING MY TITHE, SO THE MINUTE IT GOES IN HIS
HAND, WHOO, I'M GONNA GET A DIFFERENT RESULT. I'M TELLING
YOU, I BELIEVE THAT WITH ALL MY HEART. AND I WANT TO ENCOURAGE
YOU IN THIS ROOM TODAY, AND THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE WATCHING
ONLINE, LET'S BREAK THE POWER OF BRACING FOR NEGATIVE
EXPECTATION. COME ON, WE'VE GOT TO DO THAT IN AMERICA. WE HAVE
GOT TO LOOK AT THE CIRCUMSTANCE AND TAKE AUTHORITY AND SAY, NO,
WE'RE GOING TO SHIFT THIS A DIFFERENT DIRECTION IN JESUS'
NAME, HALLELUJAH. ALL RIGHT, LET'S PUT THE GIVING INFORMATION
UP ON THE SCREEN. YOU CAN GET YOUR OFFERING READY, YOUR TITHE.
AND THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOU THAT CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE
BUILDING PROJECT. WE HAVE ONE NOTE THAT I'M WORKING ON.
THERE'S TWO NOTES ON THIS PROPERTY. AND THE FIRST ONE, I
AM BELIEVING, SINCE WE STARTED CONSTRUCTION, LITTLE BY LITTLE,
WE HAVE PAID OFF ALMOST A MILLION DOLLARS ON THE NOTES ON
THIS PROPERTY. NOW, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT MULTIPLY. SO HERE'S
WHAT I'D SAY. IF YOU SO INTO THE BUILDING, GUESS WHAT YOU NEED TO
DECLARE? PAY OFF IN YOUR LIFE. I MEAN, ANYBODY, AND I CAN BE ABLE
TO RAISE MY HAND, HAVE ANY DEBTS YOU WOULD LOVE TO SEE GO AWAY?
ALL RIGHT, ALMOST THE WHOLE ROOM AND THE WHOLE INTERNET. WELL,
WHEN YOU GIVE, SAY, THIS IS PAID OFF. WHEN YOU GIVE TO THE
BUILDING PROJECT, SAY, NO, MY STUFF'S PAID OFF. GOD, SEE THIS
GIFT TO THE BUILDING PROJECT. IF WE'RE HELPING PAY OFF YOUR
HOUSE, THEN GOD, YOU'RE FAITHFUL TO PAY OFF MY HOUSE. COME ON,
THERE'S BIBLE FOR THAT. AMEN. ALL RIGHT, ENOUGH PREACHING.
STAND UP ON YOUR FEET. LET'S GET OUR GIVING IN OUR HAND. WHEW,
IT'S A WEAPON. HOLD UP YOUR PHONE, YOUR DEVICE, HOLD UP YOUR
ENVELOPE. THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE MAILING, HOLD UP THE MAIL
ENVELOPE OR HOLD UP YOUR PHONE AS WELL. FATHER, NOW WE THANK
YOU IN JESUS' NAME. WE THANK YOU THAT EVERY GIVER THAT IS HOLDING
UP THIS WEAPON, THIS WEAPON AGAINST THE HANDS OF THE ENEMY
THAT'S HOLDING UP THIS SWORD. FATHER, THEY'RE GONNA SEE A
DIFFERENT RESULT. THEY WILL SEE EVERYTHING YOU SENT YOUR WORD TO
DO. FATHER, THIS IS US PUTTING THE WORD INTO MOTION TODAY. AND
WE THANK YOU THAT THAT WORD IS GONNA PRODUCE THE HARVEST. YOU
SAID, GOD, AND I HOLD YOU TO THIS TODAY ON BEHALF OF THE
PEOPLE. YOU SAID THAT YOUR WORD WILL NEVER RETURN VOID. AND IT
WILL ACCOMPLISH THAT WHICH YOU HAVE PLEASED AND WHERE YOU'VE
SENT IT. SO FATHER WE THANK YOU INSTEAD OF NEGATIVITY WE EXPECT
A BREAKTHROUGH. WE THANK YOU FOR IT. WE BELIEVE YOU FOR IT. NOW
SAY THESE WORDS SAY LORD I BREAK NEGATIVE EXPECTATION DEVIL YOU
ARE BOUND. ANYTHING THE ENEMY WOULD SOW, I SAY IT'S
IMMEDIATELY UPROOTED. I HOLD UP MY GIVING AND I DECLARE PAYOFF.
AS I SOW INTO THE KINGDOM, I SAY PAYOFF COMES TO ME. AND IT
HAPPENS SPEEDILY AND QUICKLY IN WAYS THAT I WOULDN'T EVEN
EXPECT. COME ON, IN JESUS' NAME, GIVE GOD A GREAT BIG SHOUT. ALL
RIGHT, WELL, HERE'S OUR OPPORTUNITY. LET'S DO THE
DECLARATION AND BELIEVE IT. ARE YOU READY? ALL RIGHT. 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 UP
AND FINISH. WE SAY THAT WE HAVE ALL THE FINANCES NEEDED FOR THE
LORD IS BUILDING THIS HOUSE. WE HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH. COME ON,
EXCESS AND OVERFLOW. LORD, YOU ARE PROVIDING SEED TO THE SOWER.
STOP RIGHT THERE. COME ON, YOU GOT A SEED IN YOUR HAND. COME
ON, YOU READY? SO SAY IT AGAIN. LORD, YOU ARE PROVIDING
SEED TO THE SOWER. WE CALL UPON YOU, TO BRING FORTH HEAVENLY
ASSISTANCE AND RAISE UP MULTITUDES OF PEOPLE THAT SHALL
GIVE ABUNDANTLY TO THIS WORK. WE PROPHESY THAT WE SHALL
QUADRUPLE, QUADRUPLE, AND THAT WE WILL QUADRUPLE AGAIN. WE
DECLARE NEW THINGS NOW. COME ON, NOT OLD THINGS, RIGHT? NOT OLD
THINGS, NEW THINGS. LOOK AT YOUR NEIGHBOR, SAY IT'S A NEW THING.
OKAY, READY? 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, USHERS,
YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND USH THE PEOPLE AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR
GIVING THOSE OF YOU IN THIS ROOM AND ALSO ONLINE. I DID FEEL AS I
WAS WALKING OVER HERE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO RAISE YOUR HAND
UNLESS YOU WANT TO OR THOSE OF YOU WATCHING, BUT I FELT LIKE
SOMEBODY IS, THERE WAS TWO THAT CAME TO MY HEART. SOMEBODY IS
SCHEDULED THIS WEEK FOR SOME KIND OF SURGERY AND PROCEDURE
AND THERE'S SOMEBODY THAT'S SCHEDULED RIGHT INTO THE FIRST
WEEK OF MARCH, SO AFTER THIS WEEK. AND WE'RE GONNA PRAY A
BLESSING ON THAT AND IT'S GONNA BE FINE. AND I JUST FELT LIKE
THE ENEMY SOMETIMES TRIES TO PUT ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT THOUGHTS
INSIDE SOMEONE'S HEAD. AND SO FATHER, WE FIRST OF ALL COME
AGAINST ANY ENTITY THAT IS SPEAKING INTO THE EARS OF THESE
THAT, LORD, ARE SCHEDULED PROCEDURE OR SURGERY. AND WE ARE
ASKING, LORD, FOR THOSE VOICES TO BE SILENT. WE THANK YOU FOR
THE HOLY SPIRIT OF TRUTH THAT HOVERS OVER THEIR SOUL, OVER
THEIR MIND, THAT, LORD, EVERYTHING IS GONNA GO
EXCEEDINGLY ABUNDANTLY BEYOND ALL THEY COULD ASK OR THINK. WE
ASK THAT YOU WOULD GUIDE THE HANDS OF THOSE WHO WILL
ADMINISTER THESE THINGS. AND WE THANK YOU THAT LIFE AND
WHOLENESS AND PEACE IS THEIR PORTION. AND THAT, FATHER,
THERE'LL NEVER BE ANOTHER SITUATION OR NEED FOR A
PROCEDURE OR SURGERY. LORD, WE'RE EVEN ASKING FOR A DIVINE
INTERRUPTION AHEAD OF TIME, WHY NOT? THAT LORD, THE WHOLE THING
COULD JUST BE CANCELED BECAUSE LOOK AT WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE.
AND SO LORD, WE TRUST YOU AND WE HONOR YOU. WE GIVE THESE PEOPLE
INTO YOUR HANDS AND WE SAY, AND I HEAR IT VERY CLEARLY, IT IS
AND IT SHALL BE WELL. JUST SMILE ALL THE WAY, AMEN. I THINK SOME
OF US JUST NEED TO DO THAT. JUST SMILE RIGHT NOW, JUST SMILE,
IT'S GOOD. OKAY, NOW SMILE UP AT HIM AND SAY THIS.
I ALWAYS SAY THIS, I ALWAYS SAY THREE THINGS TO GOD.
SAY I LOVE YOU. I NEED YOU. AND I TRUST YOU. AMEN.
AND YOU SAID IT WITH A SMILE AND I THINK HE LIKED IT.
OKAY. I'VE HAD GOD TELL ME THAT SOMETIMES. IT'S LIKE, I
REALLY LIKE THAT. AND I SAID, WELL THEN GOOD, I'LL DO IT
AGAIN. AND THEN HE REALLY, HE REALLY LIKES IT. SO I LIKE TO
MAKE HIM VERY HAPPY, DON'T YOU? ALL RIGHT, SO I WANNA MAKE JUST
ONE REAL QUICK ANNOUNCEMENT. I WANT YOU TO JOIN ME ON
WEDNESDAY. WE DECIDED RATHER THAN DO THE PROPHETIC PULSE, I
JUST FELT LIKE I NEEDED TO DO SOME TEACHING, BUT BOY, PASTOR
ANTHONY AND TERRY, YOU GUYS HAVE COME UP WITH SOME GREAT STUFF.
SO WHAT I'M GONNA DO IS INVITE HIM PROBABLY ON GET REAL WITH
HANK. PROBABLY NOT THIS TUESDAY, I'M GONNA COME IN AND DO SOME
SHOWS ON THE PROPHETIC, BUT WE'LL GET HIM IN THE STUDIO AND
I'LL BE ABLE TO REALLY COVER SOME PROPHETIC PULSE
INFORMATION. I'VE JUST GOT A REALLY BUSY CALENDAR COMING UP
HERE IN MARCH AND APRIL. SO I'M JUST TRYING TO GET AS MUCH AS I
CAN IN WITH THE BALANCING OF MY SCHEDULE. SO I DIDN'T WANT THOSE
OF YOU THAT LOVE THE PULSE TO GO, "WELL, WE WANNA BREAK DOWN
PROPHETIC THINGS." SO I THOUGHT, "WELL, HEY, LET'S JUST DO GET
REAL. "THAT MIGHT BE A GOOD, AND WE'LL JUST DO LIKE AN HOUR
SESSION "RATHER THAN LIKE 20 MINUTES ON GET REAL "AND COVER A
LOT OF MATERIAL." SO ARE YOU GOOD WITH THAT? WE CAN DO THAT
AND YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB, THANK YOU. SO I WANNA SHARE A
VIDEO. IT'S ACTUALLY A MOVIE THAT'S GONNA BE OUT SEPTEMBER
10TH OF THIS YEAR. THAT WOULD BE ONE YEAR SINCE CHARLIE KIRK WAS
VICIOUSLY MURDERED IN FRONT OF PUBLIC EYE. AND RIGHT BEFORE
THIS, WE HAD A MOVIE COMPANY, SPARROW. THEY ARE AMAZING.
MATTHEW THAYER IS THE FILMMAKER, DIRECTOR. HE'S AWARD-WINNING AT
THAT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE WATCHING OR NOT, MATTHEW, BUT
YOU DID A GREAT JOB. BUT HE CAME OUT AND INTERVIEWED BRENDA AND I
FOR THE MOVIE, AND THE DIFFERENT PEOPLE THAT ARE GONNA BE IN IT
ARE CHARLIE KIRK, IT WAS RIGHT, IT WAS CHARLIE'S LAST INTERVIEW.
BRENDA AND I, AMANDA GRACE, ANDREW WHALEN, BILL FEDDERER,
DENNIS ZETTING, JOHNNY ENLOW, AND THEN KELLY SHACKELFORD, AND
THEN NATHAN FRENCH, AND I DON'T KNOW WHOEVER ELSE IS IN IT, BUT
I'M JUST LOOKING ON THEIR WEBSITE. BUT I SAID TO MATTHEW
THERE, I SAID, "HEY, I'D LIKE TO JUST START ADVERTISING THAT."
AND THEN I HAD A THOUGHT, BRENDA, I'M GONNA TALK TO
MATTHEW ABOUT THIS THERE, THAT SINCE IT'S RIGHT AT THE TIME OF
OUR CONFERENCE, MAYBE THERE'S A WAY WE CAN COORDINATE A SHOWING
THERE. AND THAT WAY YOU COULD SEE IT THERE. I THINK THAT WOULD
BE REALLY, REALLY COOL. ALL RIGHT, SO WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE
THE TRAILER? OK, IF THEY COULD DIM THE LIGHTS. AND THOSE OF YOU
THAT ARE AT YOUR HOUSE, DIM YOUR LIGHTS IN YOUR HOUSE. AND GET
READY. HERE WE GO. ALL RIGHT, LET'S SHOW IT. I DO BELIEVE THAT
THOSE GIFTS ARE ACTIVE. I'M NOT IN A POSITION TO SPEAK OPENLY
ABOUT THAT AS MUCH AS THEOLOGIANS. I WILL SAY THIS. IT
CAN BE ABUSED. IT'S VERY REAL, BUT I'VE SEEN IT WORK. NOT ONLY
WORK, I'VE SEEN IT TRANSFORM LIVES, AND SOME PEOPLE
ABSOLUTELY HAVE THE GIFT OF PROPHECY. THE REASON WE NEED
PROPHETS IS BECAUSE WE NEED GOD TO REVEAL HIS HEART, AND GOD HAS
ALWAYS CHOSEN, WHENEVER HE WANTS TO SAY SOMETHING, HE LOOKS FOR A
HUMAN VESSEL. WE SAW DEPRESSION GO UP, ANXIETY GO UP, WE SAW
CRIME GO UP. THE PROBLEM IS WE'RE LOOKING FOR THE GOVERNMENT
TO TACKLE MORAL ISSUES. THE PROBLEM WITH BEING DECEIVED IS
YOU'RE DECEIVED AND YOU DON'T KNOW IT. CHRIST CALLED US TO BE
SALT AND LIGHT. WE AS CHRISTIANS SHOULD CHANGE THE ENVIRONMENT
THAT WE COME IN CONTACT WITH. PEOPLE WILL OFTEN COME TO ME AND
SAY, WELL, AS A PASTOR, YOU REALLY SHOULD NOT BE INVOLVED.
THE FIRST QUESTION IS WHY SHOULD CHRISTIANS BE INVOLVED IN
ANYTHING? A NATION WHO ACKNOWLEDGES GOD IS GOING TO BE
BLESSED. WELL, YOU CAN'T BE BLESSED IF YOU'RE THE CHURCH IF
YOU'RE TO ELIMINATE YOURSELF FROM IT. WHETHER IT BE NEHEMIAH,
JEREMIAH, DANIEL, MOSES, AARON, THEY ALL THOUGHT DEEPLY ABOUT
HOW TO EITHER INFLUENCE SECULAR GOVERNMENT FOR GOD'S PURPOSES OR
FORM A GOVERNMENT FOR GOD'S PURPOSES. EVERYBODY WILL LOOK
AROUND AND WONDER, "IS ANYBODY GONNA STAND UP?" WHEN YOU HEAR
HIS VOICE IN THE MOUTHS OF HIS MESSENGERS, IT TUNES PEOPLE INTO
KNOWING WHAT HE SOUNDS LIKE. EVERYTHING THAT JESUS EVER
TAUGHT WAS THE KINGDOM OF GOD GROWS AND GROWS AND GROWS AND
GROWS AND GROWS. WE ARE GOING TO SEE THE VALUE OF HEARING HIS
VOICE FOR EVERY AREA OF LIFE AND SOCIETY.
(MUSIC)
ALL RIGHT, WELL, STAY TUNED.
(CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
THAT WAS REALLY A LOT OF FUN TO DO THAT. AND I'LL TELL YOU,
BRENDA, YOU WERE THERE, THE ANOINTING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS
SO EVIDENT, AND I'M EXCITED TO SEE HOW THEY WERE ABLE TO
CAPTURE WHAT I BELIEVE GOD WAS SHARING. SO IT'LL BE REALLY,
REALLY AWESOME. ALL RIGHT, ARE YOU READY? OPEN YOUR BIBLES,
PLEASE. I WANNA CONTINUE WHAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT. AGAIN,
WE'RE LOOKING AT SOMETHING VERY INTERESTING HAPPENING
IN OUR COUNTRY ON MAY 17TH OF THIS YEAR.
AND YEAH, YOU CAN GIVE HONOR TO GOD.
(CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
IT'S REALLY, IN MY LIFETIME, I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER SEEN IT,
WHERE A LEADER AND THE PEOPLE ARE SUMMONED TO MEET, PRAY,
WORSHIP, AND REDEDICATE THE NATION BACK TO GOD. AND IT'S
VERY, VERY INTERESTING, BECAUSE IT COINCIDES, AND THOSE OF YOU
THAT ARE WATCHING, MAY 17TH THROUGH JULY 4TH IS EXACTLY 49
DAYS. A COMPLETED CYCLE, 7 TIMES 7, 49. AND THEN JULY 5TH, AFTER
250 YEARS OF AMERICA'S REIGN, AFTER THIS REDEDICATION, 50 IS
THE NUMBER FOR JUBILEE. IT'S THE NUMBER FOR FREEDOM, THAT'S WHAT
50 REPRESENTS. IT'S THE NUMBER FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT. SO GOD IS
TRYING TO SAY SOMETHING TO US THAT I THINK WE NEED TO PAY
ATTENTION TO. AND I'M GONNA SHOW YOU IN SCRIPTURE THAT IT'S
IMPERATIVE THAT WE DON'T MISS THE MOMENT WHEN GOD BRINGS IT TO
US. I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I OFTEN SAY TO GOD. I SAY,
GOD, IT'S ONE THING FOR YOU TO SAY SOMETHING TO US AND FOR US
TO HEAR, IT'S ANOTHER THING FOR US TO OBEY. WE KNOW THAT BECAUSE
MATTHEW 23:37, JESUS EVEN HAD TO SAY IT. HE QUOTED MATTHEW 23:37.
I WANT YOU TO SEE IT IF THEY CAN PUT IT UP. SORRY I DIDN'T GIVE
YOU ALL THESE SCRIPTURES, BUT GIVE 'EM A MINUTE TO PUT IT UP.
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT WHEN GOD SENDS PROPHETIC VESSELS INTO THE
EARTH AND HE BEGINS TO SPEAK, HE SAID, "OH, JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM,
"YOU KILLED THE PROPHETS, YOU STONED THEM, AND THEY WERE SENT
TO YOU." AND THEN JESUS IS TALKING ABOUT HIS REDEMPTIVE
PLAN. HE SAYS, "MAN, OVER AND OVER, I WOULD HAVE GATHERED THY
CHILDREN TOGETHER. I WOULD HAVE BROUGHT PRESERVATION, I WOULD
HAVE BROUGHT PROTECTION, EVEN AS A HEN GATHERS OR BROODS OVER HER
CHICKENS UNDER HER WINGS." BUT NOTICE THE LAST PART OF THAT
VERSE, AND I OFTEN SAY THIS TO GOD, IT SAYS, "WHO'S THE
RESPONSIBILITY ON?" WAS IT THE PROPHETS? WAS IT GOD? IT WAS TO
THE PEOPLE. THE PEOPLE WOULD NOT, AND I FEEL LIKE WITH THIS,
THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN ON MAY 17TH, ALL THE WAY INTO THE 250TH
YEAR OF AMERICA'S REIGN, JULY 4TH, THAT WE CANNOT BE THE
PEOPLE OF THE WE WON'T. WE CANNOT. OKAY, THE CANNOT, WE
WON'T, CAUSED A WHOLE GENERATION. WHEN THEY WERE RIGHT
AT THE VERGE OF TAKING THEIR PROMISED LAND AFTER 430 YEARS OF
BONDAGE, GOD WAS TRYING TO BRING ISRAEL OVER THE PROMISED LAND.
THEY BROUGHT BACK THESE HUGE GRAPES AS EVIDENCE THAT, MAN,
THERE WAS SOME REALLY GREAT TIMES AHEAD, BUT THERE WAS ONE
SLIGHT LITTLE THING, AND THAT WAS THERE WAS GIANTS IN THE
LAND. AND THEY CHOSE TO DO WHAT THAT VERSE SAID, THEY WOULD NOT.
THEY SAID, WE CANNOT. AND A WHOLE GENERATION HAD TO PASS
BEFORE GOD COULD LITERALLY BRING ANOTHER GENERATION OVER TO
CAPTURE WHAT HE PROPHESIED. AND I BELIEVE THAT AMERICA RIGHT NOW
AND THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH ARE IN A VERY IMPORTANT TIME WITH
GOD. HE IS LOOKING AT THIS GENERATION AND SAYING, I WANT TO
RECAPTURE THIS GENERATION. I'VE WATCHED WHAT'S BEEN DONE THROUGH
TRAFFICKING. I'VE WATCHED WHAT'S BEEN DONE IN THE SCHOOLS. I'VE
WATCHED CHILDREN BEING MUTILATED. I'VE WATCHED WHAT
THEY'VE DONE THROUGH THE MOVIES AND ENTERTAINMENTS AND SCHOOLS
OF INDOCTRINATING THE CHILDREN OF THIS DAY. AND GOD HAS COME
WITH A JEALOUSY AT THIS TIME RIGHT NOW. AND THAT JEALOUSY HAS
TO DO WITH WHERE HE'S SAYING, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. AND I WANT TO
RECAPTURE A GENERATION FOR HIM. THAT'S WHAT GOD WANTS. HE'S
AFTER THE CHILDREN. AND THE ENEMY'S BEEN AFTER HIM. AND THE
ENEMY HAS DONE A LOT OF BAD TO KIDS AND TO CHILDREN, TO THIS
GENERATION. AND GOD'S SAYING ENOUGH OF THIS. SO I THINK WE
NEED TO HELP OUR FATHER OUT. I THINK WE NEED TO REPRESENT OUR
FATHER'S CAUSE IN HEAVEN. AND I THINK THAT WE NEED TO, WHETHER
IT BE LIKE THE CHILDREN'S BOOKS THAT WE'RE PRODUCING AND THE
ANIMATION, WE NEED TO GET BEHIND STUFF LIKE THAT. BUT I ALSO
BELIEVE IF GOD IS SPEAKING SOMETHING TO US ON WHAT HIS PLAN
IS, WE NEED TO SEIZE THE MOMENT. SO I WANT YOU TO LOOK AT WHAT
GOD HAS BEEN SAYING. I WANT YOU TO LOOK FIRST AT ISAIAH 42. WHEN
ROBERTS LIARDON WAS HERE, HE'S A HISTORIAN, BRILLIANT. HE TALKED
ABOUT REVIVAL AND REFORMATION. HE TALKED ABOUT AMERICA'S
EXPERIENCE REVIVALS. THAT'S WHERE THE CHURCH HOUSE OR A
HOUSE OR YOU COULD SAY A STADIUM OR A SCHOOL OR SOMETHING, IT'S
WITHIN THE FOUR WALLS, EXPERIENCES A VISITATION OF GOD,
WHERE GOD COMES DOWN AND THAT WHICH IS DEAD BEGINS TO COME TO
LIFE AGAIN. AND THAT'S CALLED REVIVAL. THE PROBLEM IS, IT'S
ALWAYS FOCUSED WITHIN THE WALLS OR WHERE THE EXPRESSION OF GOD
IS BEING DISPLAYED. OFTENTIMES, IT DOESN'T SPILL OVER INTO THE
COMMUNITIES, INTO THE CITIES AND INTO THE DIFFERENT THINGS LIKE
MEDIA AND THE FAMILY AND ENTERTAINMENT AND SUCH, WHERE
THERE IS SUCH A NEED. BUT THERE'S A STRONGER WORD THAN
REVIVAL, IT'S CALLED REFORMATION. AND IT'S THE WORD
REFORM, TO REFORM SOMETHING. IT'S LIKE IF YOU TAKE A PIECE OF
CLAY AND IT'S ALREADY, MAYBE IT'S A, LET'S SAY IT'S A PIECE
OF POTTERY AND IT'S A PIECE OF CLAY POTTERY. WELL, TO REFORM IT
IS YOU RESHAPE IT, YOU BEND IT, YOU MOVE IT, YOU PULL OUT ON THE
HANDLES, WHATEVER. THE SAME WAY WITH REFORMATION, GOD GETS HIS
HAND ON A NATION AND ON A PEOPLE, HE BEGINS TO SQUEEZE IT,
HE BEGINS TO RESHAPE IT, IT'S NOT ALWAYS COMFORTABLE.
SOMETIMES WE DON'T LIKE THE CHANGE, BUT THE OUTCOME IS
BEAUTIFUL. AND SO THIS IS WHERE I'M TRYING TO GET US TO
UNDERSTAND WHEN GOD'S SAYING SHIFT CHANGE, WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
WHERE ARE WE HEADING? AND IT'S NO COINCIDENCE THAT WE ARE IN
THIS TIME OF THIS 250TH YEAR OF AMERICA'S REIGN. IT'S NO
COINCIDENCE THAT WE'RE AT THIS MAY 17TH BECAUSE I'M GONNA SHOW
YOU, YOU KNOW, WHAT COMES AFTER A STORM? WHAT COMES AFTER A
HARDSHIP? WHAT COMES AFTER WHEN YOU GO THROUGH THE THINGS THAT
WE'VE GONE THROUGH OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, AND I CAN SHOW YOU
THE RESULT OF REFORM IS GLORIOUS. GOING THROUGH IT
ISN'T. AND WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GOING THROUGH, THEN
OFTEN YOU QUIT AND YOU GIVE UP. BUT I BELIEVE THAT WE'RE JUST
ABOUT THERE. ROBERT SAID THAT A REFORM TAKES ANYWHERE BETWEEN 12
TO 15 YEARS BEFORE IT COMES INTO ITS MANIFESTATION. I BELIEVE
THAT THE REFORM STARTED WHEN WE WERE HEARING WORDS LIKE, I'M
GOING TO MAKE THIS NATION GREAT AGAIN. NOW, IF YOU JUST HEAR
THAT IN POLITICAL EARS, YOU'RE GONNA MISS OUT WHAT GOD IS
SAYING, WHAT GOD IS WANTING TO DO. YOU'RE GONNA GET CAUGHT UP
IN THE POLITICS OF THINGS AND COMPLETELY BE UNDISCERNING WHEN
IT COMES TO WHAT IS THE AGENDA OF HEAVEN. GOD IS WANTING TO
MAKE SOMETHING BETTER. SO LOOK AT ISAIAH CHAPTER 42, LET'S LOOK
AT VERSE 9. IN ORDER FOR GOD TO DO THAT, YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT
WHAT THIS VERSE SAYS. AND THIS IS NOT JUST FOR A NATION. SO I'M
NOT JUST PREACHING THIS TO YOU AND SAYING THAT IT DOESN'T APPLY
TO YOUR LIFE. IT DOES APPLY TO YOUR LIFE. BECAUSE HOW MANY OF
YOU WERE AFFECTED BY THE EVENTS THAT HAPPENED IN THE NATION OVER
THE LAST FEW YEARS? HOW MANY OF YOU WERE AFFECTED BY HIGH EGG
PRICES, HIGH GAS PRICES? HOW MANY WERE AFFECTED BY A MANMADE
PLAGUE THAT CAME THROUGH THE HANDS OF GOVERNMENT? HOW MANY
WERE AFFECTED BY FORCED VACCINATIONS, MANDATES? RIGHT,
IT DID AFFECT YOU. AND SO WHEN GOD BEGINS TO BRING A
REFORMATION, IT'S NOT JUST THE NATION, IT'S ECONOMY, IT'S
GOVERNMENT, IT'S YOU, THE PEOPLE, THAT GOD BEGINS TO DO
THESE THINGS FOR BECAUSE HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW, HIS EYE IS ON
YOU. AND HE'S WANTING TO BRING SIGNIFICANT CHANGE EVEN ON A
PERSONAL LEVEL IN YOUR LIFE. NOW WATCH, YOU GOTTA LOOK AT WHAT
THE SCRIPTURE SAYS. PAY ATTENTION, BEHOLD, FORMER THINGS
ARE COMING TO PASS. IN OTHER WORDS, LIKE PASTOR BRENDA WAS
SAYING, QUIT SAYING, OH, IT'S JUST MY LUCK, OR IT ALWAYS
HAPPENS TO ME. WELL, NO, NOT IF YOU'RE IN THIS SEASON, DON'T
EVER SAY THAT BECAUSE GOD IS TRYING TO MAKE IT VERY CLEAR.
YOUR STRUGGLES, YOUR PAIN, YOUR FRUSTRATION, SOME OF THE
HARDSHIP, THE STORMS THAT NOT ONLY THE NATION HAS FACED, BUT
WHAT YOU HAVE FACED ARE COMING TO AN END. THAT CYCLE IS ENDING.
THERE WAS A TIME WHEN ISRAEL KEPT WANDERING AROUND IN CIRCLES
AND GOD HAD TO SAY, "ALL RIGHT, YOU'VE GONE THIS DIRECTION LONG
ENOUGH." YOU COULD FIND THIS IN DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 1 AND 2. HE
SAID, "YOU'VE GONE AROUND THE CIRCLE LONG ENOUGH. NOW CHANGE
DIRECTION AND HEAD NORTHWARD." AND GOD REDIRECTED THEM, GOD
SHIFTED THEM. AND THAT'S REALLY WHAT GOD IS DOING WITH US. AND
HE'S DOING IT WITH THIS NATION AND THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH.
HE'S REDIRECTING, HE'S SHIFTING, HE'S BREAKING CYCLES, HE'S
BREAKING PATTERNS. WHY DO YOU THINK HE BROKE CHARIOT WHEELS?
IT WAS GOD THAT DID IT. BECAUSE CHARIOT WHEELS REPRESENT CYCLES
AND ALL THOSE CYCLES AND YEARS OF GETTING WHIPPED AND BEATEN
AND HAVING TO BUILD FOR A SOCIALISTIC GOVERNMENT UNDER
PHARAOH. GOD WAS SAYING, I'M SHOWING YOU THAT THAT CYCLE AND
PATTERN IS BROKEN. THE PROBLEM IS, ISRAEL, WHEN THEY GOT THEIR
DELIVERANCE, THEY WENT OVER AND THEY STARTED THEIR OWN CHARIOT
WHEEL. THEY GOT INTO NEGATIVITY, THEY GOT INTO UNBELIEF, THEY GOT
INTO COMPLAINING, THEY QUIT WORSHIPING GOD, THEY CORRUPTED
THEMSELVES, AND THEY STARTED THEIR OWN CHARIOT WHEEL. AND
THEY STARTED THEIR OWN CYCLE OF 40 YEARS. AND GOD IS SIMPLY
SAYING TO US, DON'T DO THAT. SO THE FORMER THINGS ARE COMING TO
PASS, NEW THINGS. EVERYBODY SAY NEW THINGS. SO START EXPECTING
NEW THINGS. START EXPECTING NEW THINGS IN YOUR LIFE. COME ON,
RATHER THAN COMPLAIN ABOUT WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE IN THE PAST
SEASON, START EXPECTING THE NEW. OKAY, HOW MANY OF YOU WANT A NEW
PLACE TO LIVE? ALL RIGHT, SOME OF YOU ARE LIKE, "HEY, HEY." I
MEAN, YOU ALMOST SANG IT, "AMEN. AMEN" OKAY, THEY REALLY
WANT A NEW PLACE TO LIVE. WELL, GOD GRANT IT TO THEM. HOW MANY
WANT A DIFFERENT CAR? DON'T SAY DIFFERENT SPOUSE. THAT'S NOT
ALLOWED. LISTEN, THAT'S NOT ALLOWED. WE DON'T DO THAT. IT'S
NOT ALLOWED. YOU GOT THE PERFECT SPOUSE. BEHOLD, THE FORMER
THINGS ARE COME TO PASS, NEW THINGS I DECLARE, AND BEFORE
THEY SPRING FORTH, I TELL YOU. OKAY, NOW, YOU GOTTA GO DOWN NOW
TO THE REST OF THE VERSES, VERSES 12 AND 13. LOOK AT HOW
GOD IS GOING TO APPROACH THE NEW THINGS. REMEMBER LAST YEAR, GOD
SAID THAT I AM THE LORD OF THE FIGHT. YOU HEARD THE PROPHECY
TODAY, OKAY? HE SAYS, "LET THEM GIVE GLORY UNTO THE LORD "AND
DECLARE HIS PRAISE IN THE ISLANDS." ALL RIGHT, NOW WATCH
THIS. "THE LORD SHALL GO FORTH AS A MIGHTY MAN." NOTICE THE
WORDS, THE LORD. SAME AS EXODUS 14:14. "THE LORD SHALL FIGHT FOR
YOU." THERE AIN'T NOTHING LIKE THE GOD FACTOR. UNDERLINE THE
LORD. THAT IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE GOD FACTOR. THE GOD FACTOR WHO
FIGHTS FOR YOU. THE GOD WHO DECIDES TO COME WHEN HE SAYS
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, AND HE BEGINS TO INSERT HIMSELF IN THE
SCHOOLS, AND NOW THE COMMANDMENTS ARE BACK UP ON THE
WALLS, RIGHT? GOD BEGINS TO INSERT HIMSELF BACK IN THE
SCHOOLS AND NO LONGER INDOCTRINATING, BUT THEY BEGIN
TO BE EDUCATED, RIGHT? GOD INSERTS HIMSELF IN A COUNTRY,
ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY DEDICATE THEMSELVES TO HIM. THE LORD
FIGHTS AT A WHOLE ‘NOTHER LEVEL. SO IT SAYS, "THE LORD SHALL GO
FORTH." WHAT KIND OF MAN? A MIGHTY MAN. OKAY, GET THAT
PICTURE OUT OF YOUR HEAD THAT JESUS IS SOME SKINNY ARMED GUY.
HE AIN'T. AND THAT WOULD INSULT HIM. OKAY, "HE SHALL GO FORTH AS
A MIGHTY MAN." AND NOTICE WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO. HE'S GONNA
STIR UP HIS JEALOUSY. WHEN GOD DOESN'T LIKE SOMETHING, HE'S
GONNA LET YOU KNOW. YOU'RE GONNA SEE IT, IT'S GONNA BE EVIDENT.
AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO DECIDE WHAT SIDE YOU'RE GONNA BE ON.
ARE YOU GONNA LOVE WHAT GOD LOVES? THAT'S TRUE JEALOUSY FOR
HIM. ARE YOU GONNA HATE WHAT HE HATES? THAT'S TRUE JEALOUSY FOR
HIM. IF YOU'RE STILL DEBATING, TRYING TO DEFEND HOLLYWOOD OVER
THE SCRIPTURE, YOU AIN'T JEALOUS FOR GOD. YOU'RE TRYING TO DEFEND
YOUR CARNAL DEEDS AND WHY YOU ARE LIKE YOU ARE BECAUSE GOD HAS
YOU FIGURED OUT. AND SO SOMEHOW YOU GET A PASS TO BE SINFUL, TO
BE EVIL, TO BE CARNAL, TO BE REALLY WHAT JESUS SAID,
LUKEWARM. NO, TO BE JEALOUS LIKE GOD, YOU GOTTA LOVE WHAT HE
LOVES AND YOU GOTTA HATE WHAT HE HATES. AND SO HE SAYS, I'M GONNA
COME LIKE A MAN OF WHAT? LIKE A MAN OF WAR, THAT'S JESUS. JESUS.
I MEAN, SOME PEOPLE CAN'T EVEN BELIEVE IT. JESUS IS COMING LIKE
A MAN OF WAR. AND NOTICE WHAT HE'S GONNA DO. HE IS GONNA CRY.
HE IS GONNA ROAR. HE IS GONNA PREVAIL AGAINST HIS ENEMIES.
NOW, I THOUGHT IT WAS INTERESTING IN THE PROPHECY, GOD
WAS SAYING WHEN YOU START SEEING PEOPLE COMING AND GETTING
ARRESTED AND THINGS, HE SAID DON'T REJOICE IN IT. 'CAUSE WHAT
HE'S TRYING TO SAY IS, VENGEANCE IS THE LORD'S. ULTIMATELY, IT
HAS TO BE GOD WHO BRINGS HIS VENGEANCE. YOU CAN'T BE THE ONE
THAT IS TAKING IT UP NOW. YOU NEED TO PRAY FOR HIS
RIGHTEOUSNESS. YOU NEED TO DEMAND HIS JUSTICE, BUT LET
VENGEANCE BE HIS. OKAY, ONLY FOUR PEOPLE GOT THAT, SO ALL
RIGHT. BUT HOW MANY OF YOU SEE THE SPIRIT OF HOW HE'S GONNA
MOVE? NOW LOOK AT VERSE 14, I BELIEVE. "HE'LL PREVAIL AGAINST
HIS ENEMIES. "I'VE LONG TIME HELD MY PEACE." IN OTHER WORDS,
I'VE SAT BACK AND I'VE DONE WHAT PASTOR BRENDA DESCRIBED TO US. I
NEVER SAW IN SCRIPTURE UNTIL SHE TAUGHT IT. BEFORE JESUS WENT
INTO THE TEMPLE, IT SAYS HE GATHERED AND FASHIONED ROPES,
RIGHT? OR IS THAT WHAT HE DID, ROPES OR WHATEVER? AND HE
STARTED MAKING IT, ALL THE WHILE BEING STIRRED UP LIKE A MAN OF
WAR, GETTING READY TO CLEAN HOUSE. HE MADE HIS WHIP EVEN
BEFORE HE WENT IN THERE. HE DIDN'T JUST GO GRAB A WHIP FROM
WHIP.COM. HE WENT IN AND HE GOT THE ROPE AND HE MADE IT, OKAY?
AND HE HELD HIS PEACE, BUT HE'D BEEN STILL FOR A WHILE. SOME
PEOPLE ARE LIKE, "WHERE'S GOD? "WHEN'S THE LORD GONNA DO
SOMETHING?" GOD'S JUST SITTING BACK GOING, "JUST KEEP PRAYING.
"VENGEANCE IS MINE. "AND I'M TELLING YOU, THIS IS THE SEASON
WE'RE IN. "AND NOW WILL I CRY LIKE A TRAVAILING WOMAN?" IN
OTHER WORDS, GOD'S ABOUT TO GIVE BIRTH TO SOMETHING. AND THE
BIRTHING IS THE RESULT OF A NATION AND NATIONS HAVING TO GO
THROUGH HARDSHIP CALLED REFORMATION. AND I WILL DESTROY
AND I WILL DEVOUR AT ONCE. NOW PAY ATTENTION TO THE WORD
DESTROY. PAY ATTENTION TO THE WORD DEVOUR. I MEAN, THOSE
AREN'T NICE WORDS, BUT THAT'S WHAT GOD IS SAYING. BUT THOSE
WORDS ARE PART OF REFORMATION. LOOK AT JEREMIAH 1, VERSE 10. WE
LOOKED AT THIS LAST WEEK. THIS IS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT. BECAUSE
WHEN GOD DOES SOMETHING BY THE WAY OF A REFORM, HE RESHAPES IT.
AND IT'S TO BRING US INTO ANOTHER WORD THAT IS BEYOND
REFORMATION. IT'S THE WORD RENAISSANCE. HOW MANY OF YOU
KNOW WHAT THE WORD RENAISSANCE MEANS? IT LITERALLY, DUTCH
SHEETS TOLD ME, 'CAUSE I PROPHESIED IT AT HIS BROTHER'S
CHURCH, TIM SHEETS. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I WAS SAYING,
MAN. I DIDN'T HALF KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE OR SPELL THE WORD. BUT
IT CAME OUT OF MY SPIRIT. AND I KNEW IT WAS GOD BECAUSE I DON'T
KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE WORDS SOMETIMES. I GET KIND OF,
SOMETIMES I GET FRUSTRATED WITH MYSELF A LITTLE BIT, BUT GOD
DOES. AND WHEN YOU'RE UNDER THAT UNCTION AND YOU'RE UNDER THAT
ANOINTING, IT JUST COMES. AND YOUR HEAD GOES, WHAT? BUT DUTCH
TOLD ME, HE SAID, IT MEANS A GOLDEN ERA. WHAT HAVE WE BEEN
SEEING ALL OVER THE NEWS? I'M GOING TO BRING AMERICA INTO ITS
GOLDEN ERA. AND THEN IMMEDIATELY, OH, BUT GOLDEN ERA
IS ALSO A WORD USED FOR NEW AGE. AND SEE HOW PEOPLE ALWAYS GOT TO
TAKE IT OVER TO THE NEGATIVE. THEY DO EXACTLY WHAT THE
DISCIPLES DO ON THE BOAT WHEN JESUS IS TRYING TO BRING A
VISITATION. EEK, IT'S A GHOST. THEY ALWAYS DRIFT TO THE
NEGATIVE, TO WHAT THE DEVIL'S DOING, WHAT THE ISLAM IS DOING,
WHAT SATAN AND DEMONS ARE DOING, RIGHT? AND THEY NEVER CAN LOOK
AT IT FROM WHAT GOD IS DOING, PROBABLY BECAUSE THERE'S A GUY
NAMED DONALD TRUMP THAT SAID IT. AND SO THAT DISQUALIFIES THEM
FROM BEING ABLE TO REALLY SEE ANYTHING THROUGH THE LENS OF
GOD. BUT GOD WAS TRYING TO TELL US RENAISSANCE, AND RENAISSANCE
ALSO MEANS WHAT HAVE WE BEEN DECLARING? FORMER THINGS HAVE
COME TO PASS AND WHAT KIND OF THINGS COME AFTER IT? NEW
THINGS. IF YOU ALWAYS LOOK IN THE BIBLE AT THE STORMS THAT
HAPPEN IN PAUL'S LIFE OR JESUS, WHEN THERE WERE STORMS AND THERE
WERE STRUGGLES AND THERE WAS HARDSHIPS, KEEP READING. DON'T
JUST END IT WITH THE STORM ENDING, KEEP READING. THERE'S
ALWAYS NEW THINGS THAT HAPPEN. PEOPLE GET A NEW TOUCH. THEY GET
HEALED OF A DISEASE. THEIR BLIND EYES BEGIN TO BE OPEN. WHOLE
REGIONS BEGIN TO BE OPEN TO THE AWARENESS OF GOD HIMSELF.
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW, SPECTACULAR, AND AMAZING. AND
THIS IS WHAT I'M TRYING TO PULL YOUR HEAD INTO SEEING. QUIT
LOOKING AT WHAT THE NEWS WANTS YOU TO THINK. QUIT LOOKING AT
THE HEADLINES AND THINKING THAT, OH, IT MUST BE, WE PUT OUR HEAD
BETWEEN OUR LEGS AND KISS OUR TOMORROW GOODBYE BECAUSE WE'RE
IN THE END TIMES. WAIT A MINUTE, WE ARE IN THE END TIMES. WE HAVE
BEEN FOR OVER 2,000 YEARS WHEN PETER STOOD UP ON THE DAY OF
PENTECOST AND THE HOLY SPIRIT CAME AND HE SAID, "THIS IS THAT
WHICH WAS SPOKEN BY THE PROPHET JOEL, "THAT IN THE LAST DAYS,
SAITH THE LORD, "I WILL POUR OUT MY SPIRIT UPON ALL FLESH "AND
YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS WILL PROPHESY." "YOUR YOUNG MEN ARE
GONNA HAVE DREAMS, YOUR OLD MEN ARE GONNA HAVE VISIONS, AND ON
MY SERVANTS AND MY HANDMAIDENS IN THOSE DAYS I WILL POUR OUT MY
SPIRIT, SAITH THE LORD." YES, THE LAST DAYS. AND I'VE SAID TO
GOD, I SAID, JESUS, IF YOU WANNA DO A PRE-RAPTURE AND GET SOME OF
THESE PEOPLE OUTTA HERE THAT HAVE NO FIGHT, THEY HAVE NO WANT
TO, THEY DON'T WANNA SEE YOU GLORIFIED IN THE EARTH, THEY
DON'T WANNA SEE YOU OPEN BLIND EYES, DEAF EARS, THEY DON'T WANT
YOU TO MOVE IN SUCH A FASHION THAT TAVERNS CLOSE DOWN,
STADIUMS ARE FILLED WITH THE CHANTING OF YESHUA, YESHUA. THEY
DON'T WANNA SEE WHAT A NEW IRAN LOOKS LIKE AND WHAT A NEW
VENEZUELA LOOKS LIKE AND WHAT A CUBA LOOKS LIKE, BUSTED FREE.
GET IT, GO AHEAD, TAKE 'EM, JESUS. BUT I, MY EYES,
MY EYES, MY EYES HAVE SEEN THE COMING OF
THE GLORY OF THE LORD AND I HAVE SEEN IT.
(CONGREGATION CHEERING)
AND I AM GOING TO LIVE ON THIS EARTH UNTIL IT'S FULFILLED. OH
GOD, YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER SHOWN THIS VESSEL. I WANT TO STAND
WITH A NATION LIKE ISRAEL DID WHEN THEY WIPED OUT THE
SOCIALIST LEFTIST GOVERNMENT THAT WAS PURSUING THEM THAT DAY
AND WATCHED THEM GET WASHED UP. AND GOD SAID, THESE EGYPTIANS,
THESE THAT HAVE TRIED TO GAIN YOUR HOUSE CALLED WHITE, YOUR
CONGRESS, YOUR SENATE, THESE THAT HAVE TRIED TO BRING
HARSHNESS UPON YOUR LIFE BY HIGH TAXES AND WHATEVER ELSE THAT
THESE MORONS IN GOVERNMENT RIGHT, LEFT, IN BETWEEN. I'M NOT
A FASCIST. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I THINK MOST OF THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY OUGHT TO QUIT. 'CAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET ANYTHING
DONE. BUT THEY STOOD IN A MOMENT, AND THEY GATHERED HANDS
AS THEY WATCHED ONLY WHAT GOD COULD DO. THE GOD OF THE
HEAVENS, THE EARTH, AND THE SEA. THE GOD WHO ABSOLUTELY CAME DOWN
AND PROBABLY WENT, AND THE SEA PARTED. AND THEN HE RETURNED IT
BACK TO NORMAL. BUT THE ENEMY WAS WASHED UP, AND THEY STOOD
THERE HOLDING HANDS, AND THEY SAID TO ONE ANOTHER, THEY SAW
THE GREAT WORK THAT THE LORD HAS DONE. AND I HAVE SAID TO GOD,
GOD, I AM JEALOUS IN MY HEART FOR YOU FIRST AND FOREMOST. I
LOVE WHAT YOU LOVE, I HATE WHAT YOU HATE. AND GOD, MORE THAN
ANYTHING, I AM A MAN FILLED WITH JEALOUSY IN MY HEART THAT I MUST
SEE YOU GLORIFIED IN THE EARTH. AND YOU KNOW WHAT THE FATHER
SAID TO ME? HE SAID, "YOU PLEASE ME AS MY SON PLEASED ME." I
SAID, "HOW?" HE SAID, "GO AND READ HIS PRAYER IN THE GARDEN."
AND I WENT AND I SAID, "FATHER, I WILL DO THAT." AND I WENT OVER
TO MATTHEW, I THINK IT'S JOHN 17. AND I READ AND I BEGAN TO
LISTEN TO JESUS AS HE WAS PRAYING HIS FINAL PRAYER BEFORE
HE WENT AND PRAYED FROM THE CROSS. AND ALL THAT WAS ON HIS
MIND IS, "FATHER, I'M DOING THIS SO THAT YOU CAN BE GLORIFIED.
"I'M LAYING MY LIFE DOWN, "EVEN THOUGH PEOPLE MAY DO WHAT
THEY'RE ABOUT TO DO. "I'M WANTING YOU TO BE GLORIFIED."
AND THEN WHEN I WALKED IN THE EARTH, JESUS SAID, "I DID
GLORIFY YOU, FATHER, AND I HONORED YOU." MAY THAT BE YOUR
PRAYER. BUT THIS IS WHAT GOD IS UP TO. WHEN WE STAND ON MAY
17TH, PEOPLE SAY, "WELL, PASTOR, WE WANT YOU TO GO IN WASHINGTON,
D.C." I SAID, "GOD HAS NOT TOLD ME." I HAVE A LOVE IN MY HEART
FOR A PLACE MORE THAN I DO WASHINGTON, D.C. IT IS THIS
HOUSE, THIS PULPIT, THIS PLACE, YOU THE PEOPLE. AND IF GOD
DOESN'T SPEAK TO ME, I'M NOT GOING THERE. I'M GONNA STAND
RIGHT HERE MAY 17TH ON SUNDAY WITH YOU, THE PEOPLE, AND I'M
ASKING YOU TO JOIN ME ONLINE AND LET'S GET BEFORE GOD AND LET'S
SAY, "JESUS, WE WANT YOU TO BE GLORIFIED. FATHER, WE WANT YOU
TO BE GLORIFIED. WE ARE CRYING OUT FOR A NEW NATION. WE ARE
CRYING OUT, FATHER, FOR A NEW DAY. WE ARE CRYING OUT FOR A
RENAISSANCE. WE ARE CRYING OUT THAT YOU WOULD REMOVE THE
HARSHNESS FROM OUR LIVES, THAT GOD YOU WOULD RESET THE EARTH,
AND THAT YOU WOULD BRING SOMETHING SO POWERFUL THAT THERE
WOULD BE A GENERATION THAT WILL ARISE LIKE PSALM 24 THAT WILL
SEEK YOUR FACE. THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF WHY I LIVE. IT'S WHY
I RISK EVERYTHING AT TIMES WHEN GOD PROPHESIES THINGS OUT OF MY
MOUTH THAT I KNOW THAT THEY'RE GONNA TAKE WRONG THAT ARE
WATCHING. BUT I SAY, I WANT YOU GLORIFIED. AND I SAY TO THEM ALL
THE TIME, YOUR HEART MUST HAVE A VOICE. I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE,
GOD, BUT IF I HAVE FOUND THE PRIVILEGE AND THE HONOR FROM
YOUR MAJESTY TO BE ENTRUSTED WITH YOUR WORDS, THEN MAY THOSE
WORDS NOT FALL TO THE GROUND. AND MAY THEY BRING HONOR TO YOU
AND NOT THE VESSEL. BECAUSE SEE, GOD IS UP TO SOMETHING. HE'S UP
TO REFORMATION. LOOK AT JEREMIAH 1:10. THE VERSES BEFORE THIS,
YOU FIND A PROPHET AND IN VERSE 6, HE WAS CALLED JEREMIAH, EVEN
BEFORE HE WAS IN HIS MOTHER'S WOMB. THAT'S WHY IT'S NOT A
BLOB. IT'S A BABY. IT'S ALREADY BEEN LOOKED AT BY GOD. IT CAME
FROM THE VERY SPIRIT OF THE FATHER, EVERY ONE OF US. AND
WE'VE BEEN GIVEN THE PRIVILEGE TO LIVE LIFE INTO THIS EARTH.
AND SO HE WAS SET AS A PROPHET OVER THE NATIONS. AND THEN LOOK
HERE AT JEREMIAH 1:10, WHAT THE NATURE OF A PROPHET DOES OR WHAT
A REFORMATION BRINGS. I'VE SET YOU THIS DAY OVER THE NATIONS
AND OVER THE KINGDOMS. NOW, I UNDERSTAND THAT AS YOU READ
THIS, YOU MIGHT LOOK AT IT ONLY IN THE NATURAL. YOU MAY LOOK AT
THIS AND SAY, OKAY, SO THE PROPHET JEREMIAH WAS SET OVER
DIFFERENT NATIONS AND DIFFERENT KINGDOMS WHERE THERE WAS A KING,
PERHAPS SO. BUT I ALSO BELIEVE THAT IT'S SHOWING YOU THE TWO
REALMS. IT'S WHY THE CHURCH HAS TO BE INVOLVED POLITICALLY,
BECAUSE THERE'S SPIRITUAL KINGDOMS, THERE'S EPHESIANS 6,
THERE'S SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES, THERE'S
PRINCIPALITIES. COME ON, THEY CALL NATURAL PLACES OF
GOVERNMENT PRINCIPALITIES, BUT IN THE SPIRIT REALM, A LOT OF
THEM ARE CONTROLLED, MANIPULATED, INFLUENCED BY
DEMONIC PRINCIPALITIES THAT AFFECT THOSE PRINCIPALITIES. AND
IF YOU JUST SHOVE IT OUT THERE TO THE REPUBLICANS AND TO THE
DEMOCRATS AND TO THE INDEPENDENTS AND THE OTHER
IDIOTS, AND YOU LET THEM BE THE SOURCE AND THE ANSWER, YOU'RE
GONNA CONTINUE TO HAVE, CONTINUE CONFUSION, CHAOS, AND DIVISION.
THERE IS ONLY ONE ENTITY GREATER THAN THE CONGRESS, THE SUPREME
COURT, THE HOUSE, THE WHITE HOUSE, THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH. IT
IS CALLED THE KINGDOM OF GOD, WHERE THE GATES OF HELL SHALL
NOT PREVAIL. AND GOD HAS SET US OVER THE NATION. HE SET US OVER
THE KINGDOMS. WE HAVE BEEN SET NOT ONLY OVER THE NATIONS TO
PROPHESY TO THEM LIKE HE DID TODAY, BUT WE'VE BEEN SET TO
PROPHESY TO THE PRINCIPALITIES AND TO THE POWERS OF DARKNESS
AND TO DECLARE TO THEM THAT THEIR DAY IS OVER. THEY ARE
FINISHED, THAT GOD HIMSELF HAS COME AT THIS TIME TO BRING A
REFORMATION, A GREAT RESET, A GREAT CHANGE, AND IT WILL HAPPEN
IN THE EARTH, AND THEY WILL AND ARE BEING DETHRONED BY YESHUA.
IT'S HAPPENING. I'VE SET YOU THIS DAY OVER THE NATIONS AND
OVER THE KINGDOMS, AND NOTICE WHAT HE SAYS. TO ROOT OUT, COME
ON, HOW MANY EVER HAD A ROOT CANAL? YOU DON'T HAVE TO RAISE
YOUR HAND. HOW MANY EVER HAD TO HAVE SOMETHING ROOTED OUT IN
YOUR YARD? YOU KNOW WHAT ROOTS SPEAK OF? GENERATIONS. YOUR
FAMILY TREE, YOUR FAMILY HISTORY, GOING ALL THE WAY TO
GREAT-GREAT-GREAT-GREAT-GRANDPA. AND GOD IS SAYING, WHEN I SEND A
PROPHET AND I BEGIN TO ANNOUNCE A REFORMATION AND I BEGIN TO
DECLARE SHIFT CHANGE, I AM GOING AFTER YOUR CHILDREN. I'M GOING
AFTER A GENERATION. AND I'M
GONNA ROOT OUT THIS TRANSGENDER NONSENSE. I'M GONNA ROOT OUT
THIS WOKE CONFUSION. I'M GONNA ROOT IT OUT. HE SURE DID. GOD
WENT LIKE THIS TO TARGET, BOOM. THEIR FINANCES WENT DOWN AND
THEY'RE LIKE, OH, WE DON'T NEED THESE OTHER ULTERIOR,
ALTERNATIVE OUTFITS AND THINGS. 'CAUSE GOD ROOTED OUT, HE'S
ROOTING OUT, HE AIN'T DONE. LOOK AT THE NEXT ONE. REMEMBER, GOD
SAID IN ISAIAH 42, I'M GONNA RISE, I'M GONNA DEVOUR, I'M
GONNA DESTROY. GOD SAYS I'M GONNA PULL DOWN. MAN, THAT'S
PRINCIPALITIES, THAT'S POWERS, RIGHT? WHEN THEY WERE PULLING
DOWN OUR STATUES AND TAKING OUR FREEDOM AND TRYING TO REWRITE
OUR HISTORY, IT WAS A SIGN OF THE DEMONIC REALM TRYING TO
RESHAPE AND TO FORMULATE ITS POWER IN THE EARTH. AND PEOPLE
STOOD BACK AND GO, WELL, YOU KNOW, MAYBE WE SHOULD TAKE A
LOOK AT THOSE PEOPLE. OKAY, IT'S NOT CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS OR
COLUMBUS DAY, IT'S CALLED INDIGNADIGIGI, HOWEVER YOU
PRONOUNCE THE WORD. I JUST CALL IT INDIGNUS. I'M AN INDIGNANT
MAN. AND THAT'S MY DAY WITH CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS. WHAT IS IT
CALLED, INGRIVENESS OR SOMETHING? INDIGENOUS. YOU HEARD
IT, YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS. OKAY, THEY HAD TO REDEFINE THAT,
RIGHT? OKAY, NO LONGER IS IT THE AMERICAN FLAG, LET'S JUST FLY
SOME OTHER FLAGS. NO, GOD HAS COME TO PULL IT DOWN. I SAW A
CLIP OF SOME SPANISH-SPEAKING PASTORS THAT WERE TALKING ABOUT
HOW GREAT BAD BUNNY'S PERFORMANCE WAS. AND I'M LIKE,
DID YOU READ THE WORDS? YOU KNEW THE WORDS IN YOUR LANGUAGE.
THAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH THE CHURCH. THEY'RE NOT JEALOUS. SO
GOD HAS TO TAKE THAT KIND OF LUNACY AND RAISE UP AN
ALTERNATIVE THING, RIGHT? LIKE WHAT TURNING POINT DID, TO PULL
IT DOWN. HOW ABOUT TO DESTROY? OH, I DON'T, I'M THINKING, THAT
WORD MAKES ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. LISTEN, YOU'VE
HEARD OF THE SAVING AMERICA ACT? YOU BETTER VOTE FOR IT. I DON'T
CARE IF YOU'RE A DEMOCRAT. WELL, I DO CARE. YOU NEED TO COME AND
SEE ME FOR COUNSELING. AND TELL ME WHY YOU WOULD SUPPORT THE
VIEWS OF THE CURRENT DEMOCRATIC-LIBERAL PARTY. AND IF
YOU'RE A REPUBLICAN, YOU NEED TO ALSO TELL ME IN COUNSELING WHY
YOU'RE A REPUBLICAN. NOW I'M NOT SAYING YOU SHOULDN'T, I'M JUST
TELLING YOU I'D LIKE TO KNOW. BECAUSE I AIN'T HAPPY WITH THEM.
NOT HAPPY WITH THE RIGHT, NOT HAPPY WITH THE LEFT, I'M NOT
HAPPY WITH THE MIDDLE. SO DON'T LABEL ME AS SUCH. I AM A
CONSERVATIVE AND I BELIEVE IN CONSERVATIVE VALUES. BUT WHEN
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY STARTS GETTING WISHY-WASHY ON
TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE, THERE'S A PROBLEM. WHEN THEY SLIDE OVER
INTO BEING A MODERATE SO THAT THEY CAN WIN, THE DEMOCRATS THAT
ARE GOING, "WHOA, MAN, I NEVER THOUGHT OUR PARTY WAS THIS
SQUIRRELY." ARE YOU LISTENING? BUT GOD HAS TO COME IN AND BEGIN
TO DESTROY SOMETHING. HE LITERALLY NEEDS TO BREAK THAT
THING EVEN GENERATIONALLY. WELL, WE'VE ALWAYS VOTED DEMOCRAT. AND
YOU KNOW, I CAN'T GO AGAINST WHAT GRANDMA SAID. OTHERWISE,
I'M GIVING IN TO UNCLE TOM. NO, GIVING TO UNCLE SAM. NOT
TAX-WISE, BUT YOUR ALLEGIANCE AS A PATRIOT TO WHAT IS BEST FOR
YOUR GOD AND YOUR COUNTRY. NOT SOMEBODY WHO IS OPENLY SHAKING
THEIR FIST, RESISTING GOD AND EVERYTHING THAT GOD WANTS TO DO.
AND IF YOU STAND UP AND SAY ANYTHING, YOU'RE A CHRISTIAN
NATIONALIST. SOMETIMES WE HOLD ONTO THINGS SO MUCH
GENERATIONALLY. AND GOD SAYS, I'M GONNA ROOT IT OUT. I'M GONNA
PULL IT DOWN, I'M GONNA DESTROY IT. AND THEN I'M GONNA PICK A
FIGHT. NOT LIKE THE PROTESTERS WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE PEACEFUL.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S PEACEFUL ABOUT THROWING BRICKS THROUGH
PEOPLE'S WINDOWS AND BURNING DOWN THEIR BUSINESSES AND
ASSAULTING LAW ENFORCEMENT. DOESN'T SOUND VERY PEACEFUL TO
ME. YEAH, BUT DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING TO US? I
DON'T THINK YOU WOULD SEE PROBABLY THAT THEY'D HAVE TO,
DEFENDING THEMSELVES, 'CAUSE YOU'RE IN THEIR FACE, WITH YOUR
STUFF, THEY'D HAVE TO DEFEND NOT ONLY THEMSELVES, BUT HOLD YOU
ACCOUNTABLE TO A NATION THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE LAW AND ORDER.
ARE YOU OKAY WITH ME TODAY? BUT HERE'S THE OTHER THING, TO PULL
IT DOWN AND TO DESTROY IT AND TO THROW IT DOWN. THROW DOWN IS A
FIGHTING TERM, IT'S A CONFLICT, RIGHT? BUT NOTICE WHAT COMES
AFTER ALL OF THAT. AND THIS IS WHY I THINK MAY 17TH IS VERY,
VERY IMPORTANT. NOW, PERSONALLY IN YOUR LIFE, LET GOD START
ROOTING OUT SOME FRIENDSHIPS, ROOTING OUT SOME ATTITUDES. LET
GOD START PULLING DOWN SOME OF THE THINGS THAT YOU KEEP TRYING
TO SHOVE IN HIS FACE AND HOLD ONTO. LET HIM DESTROY THROUGH
HIS ANOINTING SOME OF THOSE STRONGHOLDS THAT YOU KEEP GOING
BACK TO. AND LET HIM THROW IT DOWN. LET THE LORD OF THE FIGHT
COME IN AND HAVE HIS WAY IN YOUR LIFE. WHY? TO BUILD AND PLANT.
WHAT COMES AFTER BUILDING AND PLANTING? OR AFTER THE
REFORMATION? THE BUILDING, THE PLANTING. SOMETHING BEGINS TO
FLOURISH. SOMETHING NEW BEGINS TO GROW. NOW KEEP READING, LOOK
AT VERSE 11. SOMETIMES WE DON'T READ AND THERE'S SOMETHING VERY
IMPORTANT. MOREOVER, THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME INTO ME SAYING,
"JEREMIAH, WHAT DO YOU SEE? WHAT DO YOU SEE?" I SAID, "I SEE A
ROD OF AN ALMOND TREE." WHAT DO YOU SEE? THAT'S THE BIGGEST
ISSUE THAT I THINK GOD HAS WITH US TODAY IS WHAT DO WE SEE? MOST
PEOPLE ONLY SEE WHAT THE NEWS IS SAYING, OR SOMEBODY IS TALKING
TO THEM OUT ON THE STREETS, OR WHAT THEY READ. THEY DON'T SEE
IT FROM GOD'S PERSPECTIVE. SO HE MAKES, IN THIS TIME OF
REFORMATION, HE MAKES THEM SEE. AND HE SAYS, WHAT DO YOU SEE?
NOW, WHAT DID HE SEE? THIS IS VERY, VERY PROPHETIC, IF YOU
UNDERSTAND REFORMATION. WHAT DID HE SEE? A ROD OF AN ALMOND TREE.
SO HE SAW A BRANCH THAT HAD BUDDED WITH ALMONDS. WHY IS THAT
SIGNIFICANT? ANYBODY KNOW? BECAUSE HE'S TRYING TO SAY, I'M
TRYING TO GET YOU TO UNDERSTAND WHEN I TAKE A NATION THROUGH A
REFORMATION, A CHANGE, A SHIFT CHANGE, I WILL PULL DOWN, I WILL
DESTROY, I WILL OVERTHROW, I WILL THROW DOWN. AND IF YOU'RE
NOT CAREFUL AND YOU ONLY LOOK AT THAT, YOU WON'T THINK THAT
ANYTHING GOOD IS GONNA HAPPEN OR IS HAPPENING. YOU WON'T BELIEVE
THAT THERE'S ANY POSSIBLE WAY. I'VE HEARD PEOPLE SAY, AMERICA
WILL NEVER, EVER CHANGE. HOW MANY HAVE HEARD THAT? YEAH.
WE'RE NEVER GOING BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS. EXCUSE ME, I ARGUED
WITH GOD ONE DAY. I SAID THAT TO HIM AND I HAD ENOUGH GUMPTION. I
SAID, "GOD, I DON'T THINK AMERICA'S EVER GONNA CHANGE. "I
DON'T THINK AMERICA'S EVER GONNA, YOU KNOW, "HAVE WHAT WE
USED TO HAVE." AND GOD SPOKE TO ME. HE SAID, "WHAT REPORT AND
WHOSE REPORT "ARE YOU GONNA BELIEVE? "IS THAT WHAT I'VE BEEN
SAYING TO YOU?" I SAID, "WELL, NO." SAID, "I DON'T THINK IT'LL
EVER CHANGE." HE GOT ON ME. HE DIDN'T LIKE THAT. HE DID NOT
LIKE THAT I DIDN'T BELIEVE. AND THEN YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID TO
ME? HE SAID, "GET YOUR BIBLE." AND I WENT, I SAID, "OKAY, HOLY
SPIRIT, DIRECT ME." AND HE DIDN'T SPEAK IT, BUT I KNEW IT.
I DON'T KNOW HOW I KNEW IT. I DON'T KNOW WHY I KNEW IT, BUT I
OPENED UP TO EXODUS 14. I SAID, OKAY, I FEEL LIKE I'M SUPPOSED
TO BE HERE. AND I GAZED MY EYES OR SCANNED MY EYES, AND THE
WORDS CAME FLYING OFF THE PAGE, AND I KNEW GOD WAS SPEAKING. AND
IT SAID, "AND THE WATERS RETURNED." HE SAID, SOMETIMES
YOU DON'T SEE IT WHEN YOU GOT AN ENEMY PURSUING YOU, WHEN YOU GOT
A GOVERNMENT TRYING TO INFLICT HARDSHIP AND HARSHNESS, WHEN
YOU'VE GOT DEMONIC ENTITIES ATTACHED TO POLITICAL FIGURES
AND GOVERNMENTS, YOU DON'T OFTEN SEE IT, YOU DON'T THINK IT, BUT
THE WATERS RETURNED. THEY WERE ABLE TO LOOK AND GO, "OH, THAT
ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE THE RED SEA AGAIN." SEE, BECAUSE WE DON'T
UNDERSTAND THE GOD WHO TRIES TO RECAPTURE A GENERATION. NOW, I
WANT YOU TO SEE THIS. NOW, LET'S GO BACK. WHY WAS IT THE ROD
THAT, OF AN ALMOND TREE? BECAUSE WHAT GOD'S TRYING TO SHOW YOU IS
ALSO A PROPHETIC SIGN. YOU HAVE TO GO BACK TO NUMBER 16. AND
THERE WAS KORAH WHO ROSE UP IN THE COUNCIL, IN THE GOVERNMENT.
AND THEY SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT, MOSES, YOU'RE NOT QUALIFIED TO
LEAD. WE'RE GONNA RAISE UP A COUP D'ETAT. WE'RE GONNA COME AT
YOU WITH RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA. WE'RE GONNA COME AFTER YOU WITH
FAKE DOSSIERS. WE'RE GONNA COME AFTER YOU WITH EVEN CALLED THE
JERUSALEM MUELLER REPORT. AND WE'RE GONNA COME AFTER YOU. AND
WE'RE GONNA SHOW YOU HOW CORRUPT YOU ARE, MOSES. AND AARON. AND
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID. AND WE'RE THE ONES IN AUTHORITY.
AND THEY APPOINTED THEMSELVES. AND GOD SAID, EXCUSE ME, I'VE
HAD ENOUGH OF THIS. I'M GONNA GIVE A SIGN. AND I'M GOING TO
SHOW EVERYONE IN THE NATION WHO IS IN AUTHORITY. I WANT
EVERYBODY TO TAKE THEIR STICK, THEIR ROD. SO THE LEADERS OF
EACH OF THE TRIBES OF ISRAEL HAD TO COME AND PRESENT THEIR ROD OF
AUTHORITY THAT WAS OVER THE NAME OF THEIR TRIBE. AND THEY HAD TO,
IN NUMBERS 17, PLACE IT INTO THE, I THINK IT WAS THE
TABERNACLE. AND GOD SAID, "NOW, COME BACK ON TOMORROW." AND THEY
WENT AND THEY ALL BEGAN TO GRAB THEIR RODS, BUT THERE WAS
SOMETHING UNIQUE ABOUT AARON'S ROD. HERE THIS STICK HAD BUDDED
OVERNIGHT AND SOMETHING SUPERNATURAL, THE GOD FACTOR,
BEGAN TO CAUSE THAT STICK, THE ROD OF AARON, THE PRIESTHOOD, TO
FLOURISH. AND THEY ALL WENT, WHOA. AND THE PLAGUE THAT
HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THEIR COMPLAINING, HELLO COVID, BEGAN
TO STAY AND GOD SAID, "THESE ARE THE ONES THAT I'VE ANOINTED "AND
THEIR GENERATIONS TO FOLLOW." SO WHEN THE PROPHET IS SEEING, GO
BACK UP TO JEREMIAH 1:10, GOD'S SHOWING HIM HIS REFORMATION
ASSIGNMENT. YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO DEAL WITH NATURAL GOVERNMENT,
SPIRITUAL ENTITIES, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO OVERTHROW, YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO DESTROY, BUT I'M REMINDING YOU, WHAT DO YOU SEE?
AND HE'S MAKING HIM SEE A ROD THAT HAS BUDDED. TO REMIND HIM
THAT PEOPLE MAY RISE UP IN THE MIDST OF THE REFORMATION AND
RESIST, PUSH BACK, FOAM AT THE MOUTH, RIGHT? GO OUT INTO THE
STREETS AND ACT LIKE IDIOTS, CONTINUE TO SAY THAT THEY'RE
GONNA HAVE THEIR WAY AND THEIR AGENDA, AND GOD IS MAKING THE
PROPHET SAY, THERE'S SOMETHING THAT IS COMING AFTER ALL OF THIS
CHAOS. IF I COULD CAUSE A STICK TO SUPERNATURALLY BUD AND
DELIVER A WHOLE NATION WITH IT, AND I DIDN'T JUST DO IT FOR THAT
NATION, I DID IT TO RECAPTURE A GENERATION, THIS IS WHAT ALWAYS
COMES IN THE BUILDING AND THE PLANTING PHASE AFTER THE
REFORMATION, OR A RESULT OF IT. HOW MANY UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M
SAYING? ALL RIGHT, ARE YOU GETTING THIS OR AM I GOING TOO
DEEP? ALL RIGHT, I WANT YOU TO SEE SOMETHING. LET'S GO, I'M
ALMOST GONNA CLOSE JUST 'CAUSE I FEEL LIKE IT. LET ME JUST WAIT
HERE. OKAY, GO TO, OKAY, GO TO 2 KINGS CHAPTER 6. THIS IS A GOOD
ONE. WHAT HAPPENS AFTER HARDSHIP? I'VE PREACHED THIS
BEFORE, BUT I THINK THE HOLY SPIRIT WANTS ME TO REMIND YOU.
LOOK AT 2 KINGS CHAPTER 6, VERSE 25. LOOK AT WHAT THE SEASON WAS
OF 2 KINGS 6:25. IT SAYS THAT THE HARSHNESS, THERE WAS A GREAT
FAMINE IN SAMARIA. SO HOW MANY OF YOU WOULD BELIEVE THAT THERE
WAS A FAMINE, IT WOULD BE PRETTY HARSH. AND THEY BESIEGED IT, AND
A DONKEY'S HEAD WAS SOLD FOR FOUR PIECES OF SILVER. SO WHAT
WERE THEY FEEDING ON? WHAT WERE THEY FEEDING ON? THEY WERE
PARTAKING OF A DONKEY'S HEAD. WHAT HAVE WE BEEN FED OVER THESE
LAST FEW YEARS OF HARSHNESS? THE DONKEY HEAD AGENDA. AND THOSE
THAT WERE AT THE HEAD OF THE DONKEY PARTY. FEEDING AND
FEEDING AND FEEDING. WOKE, TRANSGENDERISM, THE GAY AGENDA,
RIGHT? ANTIAMERICA, NARRATIVES THAT ARE FALLING LIKE FEATHERS,
FAKE NEWS, AND TOO MANY CHRISTIANS WERE FEEDING ON IT,
AND YET GOD, IN THE MIDST OF THE DONKEY HEAD FEEDING, WAS
BRINGING SOMETHING, A MOVEMENT, A MOVEMENT THAT PEOPLE HATE, TO
MAKE AMERICA CHANGE, MAKE AMERICA BETTER, MAKE AMERICA
GREATER AGAIN. AND SO WHAT GOD DOES IS HE BEGINS TO OVERTHROW,
THROW DOWN, PULL DOWN, RIGHT? AND ALL PEOPLE CAN DO IS, WELL,
IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT 'CAUSE THEY'RE FULL OF DONKEY HEAD. IT
GETS IN THEIR HEAD, THEY GET CHEWING ON IT, AND IT BEGINS TO
FORMULATE THEIR PERSPECTIVE. THEY BEGIN TO GET A TASTE FOR
IT. OH, WELL, I GUESS $3.71 AND $4.25 A GALLON OF GAS ISN'T SO
BAD. OH, I GUESS IF PEOPLE WANT TO COME HERE TO THIS NATION AND
THEY WANT TO RAISE THEIR FLAG AND, YOU KNOW, THEY WANT TO, YOU
KNOW, INCORPORATE WHATEVER LAWS, YOU KNOW, AND ANYBODY CAN COME
IN. I GUESS IT'S OKAY. NO, IT'S ONE THING TO BE WHAT MADE THE
MELTING POT OF AMERICA THROUGH IMMIGRATION, WHAT IT IS TODAY.
WE CELEBRATE CULTURE. COME ON, YOU CAN GO TO CHICAGO AND THEY
MAKE, IN JUST A FEW WEEKS, THE WHOLE RIVER THERE GREEN FOR THE
IRISH. YOU CAN GO TO LITTLE ITALY IN OMAHA HERE AND THEY
CELEBRATE THEIR CULTURE OF ITALIANS. YOU CAN GO INTO
DIFFERENT PARTS OF YOUR COMMUNITY, INTO YOUR NATION, AND
YOU CAN SEE THE EXPRESSIONS OF CULTURE. THAT'S WHAT MAKES
AMERICA GREAT. IT, AT ONE TIME, WAS THE GREAT MELTING POT OF
DIFFERENT CULTURES. THE PROBLEM WAS, IS IT BECAME THE GREAT
BOILING POT. BECAUSE POLITICIANS KEPT FEEDING NARRATIVES LIKE THE
RACE CARD, BLACK AGAINST WHITE, WHITE AGAINST BLACK, REPUBLICAN
AGAINST DEMOCRAT, DEMOCRAT AGAINST REPUBLICAN, PEOPLE
FIGHTING, CHRISTIANS AGAINST EACH OTHER, SOCIAL MEDIA
FIGHTING, AND IT BECAME THE BOILING POT. AND THE REASON
BEING, WHEN THIS STUFF BEGINS TO HAPPEN IS BECAUSE IT'S ONE THING
TO CELEBRATE CULTURE. IT'S ANOTHER THING WHEN SOMEONE COMES
INTO YOUR CULTURE, INTO YOUR COUNTRY, AND TRIES TO BRING A
COUNTRY INSIDE OF YOUR COUNTRY. YOU CAN'T DO THAT. THAT IS AN
ACT OF WAR. YOU COULD NOT GET BY WITH THAT IF YOU WENT TO ANOTHER
COUNTRY. BUT IF YOU FEED ON THE DONKEY HEAD, YOU START THINKING
THAT WAY. YOU START THINKING THAT THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO BE
INVOLVED IN EVERYTHING THAT YOU'RE DOING. YOU NO LONGER
HONOR YOUR CONSTITUTION. YOU HONOR, CAN WE ALL JUST GET
ALONG? I'M GONNA SHOW YOU ON WEDNESDAY, ONE OF THE JOBS OF
THE PROPHET'S OFFICE IS TO BRING AND RESTORE UNITY TO THE LAND
THROUGH CONFRONTATION. ELIJAH HAD TO DO THAT. HE HAD TO PUT 12
STONES IN ORDER. THE PRIESTS COULDN'T DO IT. THEY DIDN'T DO
IT. IT WAS THE PROPHET THAT STOOD IN THE LAND AND DEALT WITH
THE FALSE, TOOK OUT 400 OF THE FALSE PROPHETS, PUT 12 STONES IN
ORDER AND BROUGHT THE UNITY THAT WAS NEEDED IN THE GOVERNMENT AND
IN THE NATION. BUT IT HAD TO COME THROUGH CONFRONTATION.
WHERE THE PROPHET HAD TO SPEAK OUT ON BEHALF OF GOD. BUT LOOK
AT, NOW HERE'S THE NEXT THING. DONKEY'S HEAD, AND THEN HERE'S
THE OTHER THING. A CAB OF DOVE'S DROPPINGS WERE SOLD FOR FIVE
SHEKELS. IF YOU ARE PART OF DOVE'S DUNG, IT SIGNIFIES THE
CHURCH. SO THE FIRST ONE IS THE CONDITION OF YOUR GOVERNMENT IN
A TIME OF HARSHNESS. BUT THEN IN A TIME OF HARSHNESS, RATHER THAN
THE DOVE NOT HAVING ANY DROPPINGS, IT HAS DROPPINGS
BECAUSE YOU HAVE PEOPLE THAT WON'T SHIFT INTO THE REFORM.
THEY LIKE THINGS AS THEY WERE. THEY DON'T LIKE, YOU REMEMBER
THAT LITTLE GUY ON TOY STORY? THEY DON'T LIKE CONFRONTATION.
THEY DON'T WANT THINGS TO BE
THROWN DOWN, OVERTHROWN, DESTROYED. CAN WE JUST HAVE
EVERYTHING NICE? AND THEY DON'T REALIZE WHAT GOD'S TRYING TO DO.
AND SO WHAT HAPPENS IS THE CHURCH BECOMES IRRELEVANT, A LOT
OF THEM. THE PREACHERS DO, AND INSTEAD OF IT BEING THE HOLY
SPIRIT DOVE, YOU GOT DROPPINGS. YOU GOT THE MOVEMENT THAT USED
TO BE. WHAT USED TO BE, THE PASTOR USED TO BE RELEVANT. THE
CHURCH AND THE CHRISTIANS USED TO BE RELEVANT. NOW IT'S JUST A
BUNCH OF DOVES DUNG. AND THE CHURCH LOSES ITS VOICE. HOLY
SPIRIT DOESN'T BLESS IT ANYMORE. AND ALL THEY CAN TALK ABOUT IS
ALL OF THEIR COFFEE BEING THE GREATEST DRAWING CARD. THAT'S
DOVES DUNG. AND THE HOLY SPIRIT DOESN'T LIKE STUFF LIKE THAT.
BUT THEN YOU SEE THE NEXT ONE, VERSE 29, THEY WERE BOILING
THEIR BABIES. WHAT IS THAT? IT'S WHAT WE'RE SEEING WITH OUR
GENERATION, ABORTION. EVEN AFTER TERM, NOT JUST LATE TERM, AFTER
BIRTH. YOU'RE SEEING MUTILATION OF CHILDREN JUST LIKE THAT. BUT
THEN SOMETHING HAPPENS. AFTER ALL OF THIS THAT TAKES PLACE,
THIS HARDSHIP, I WANT YOU TO STAND WITH YOUR FEET.
YEAH, OF COURSE YOU STAND WITH YOUR FEET.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
STAND ON YOUR HEADS. HOW MANY CAN HONESTLY DO A HANDSTAND IF I
ASKED YOU? I'M NOT GONNA ASK YOU, BUT HOW MANY COULD DO IT?
REALLY? WOW, YOU GUYS ARE ALL GYMNASTS. HOW MANY OF YOU
USED TO, BUT YOU WILL NEVER TRY THAT AGAIN?
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
I NEVER COULD. SO ONE TIME WHEN BRENDA AND I WERE FIRST MARRIED,
WE WERE RUNNING IN A RACE AND SHE'S VERY FAST. AND I WAS LIKE,
I DON'T WANNA LOSE TO A WOMAN, LET ALONE MY WIFE-TO-BE RIGHT.
I THINK SHE WON 'CAUSE I LET HER, I THINK.
(CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
OH, YOU COULD DO IT ALL DAY LONG. BUT THEN I SHOWED HER I
COULD DO A CARTWHEEL AND SHE LAUGHED AT ME AND I NEVER DID
ONE SINCE. 37 YEARS, BRENDA. ALL RIGHT, BUT LOOK AT 2 KINGS 7,
VERSE 1. LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENS. AFTER ALL OF THIS HARDSHIP, I
JUST SHOWED YOU IN THE BIBLE, OUR NARRATIVES, WHAT WE'VE HAD
TO GO THROUGH. AND THE PROPHET SHOWS UP AND HE SAYS THESE
WORDS. HE SAYS, ALL RIGHT, ELIJAH SAID, "HEAR THE WORD OF
THE LORD. "THUS SAITH THE LORD." NOT A YEAR FROM NOW, NOT 10
YEARS FROM NOW, TOMORROW, EVERYTHING IS GONNA SHIFT AND
EVERYTHING IS GONNA CHANGE. SO ALL OF THESE HARDSHIPS THAT
WE'RE SEEING, MAYBE YOU'VE BEEN A PART OF THEM, IS TO SIGNIFY
THAT IT'S NOT GONNA REMAIN. IT'S SIGNIFYING THAT THE GOD FACTOR
HAS PUT HIS FINGER ON IT, AND HE'S SHIFTING IT, HE'S CHANGING
IT, AND YOU'RE ABOUT TO SAY, WOW, THIS TIME TOMORROW, IT HAS
REALLY ACCELERATED. IT REALLY HAS CHANGED. HOW DID IT CHANGE?
HOW DID THE RED SEA OPEN? HOW DID IT RETURN? HOW DID GOD DO
THIS? AND THAT'S WHAT GOD WANTS YOU TO SEE. AND THIS IS WHERE
WE'RE HEADING. AND I'M TELLING YOU, I'VE BEEN STUDYING EVERY
EXAMPLE OF STORMS IN THE BIBLE. AND I'VE NOTICED EVERY TIME
THERE WAS SOMETHING OF GOD THAT HAPPENED AFTERWARDS. AND I WANNA
ENCOURAGE YOU BECAUSE SOME OF YOU HAVE BEEN IN STORMS. SOME OF
YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH SOME TRIALS. SOME OF YOU HAVE GONE
THROUGH SOME DISAPPOINTMENTS. SOME OF YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH
THE QUIT AND I WANNA GIVE UP. AND I'M JUST TELLING YOU, WE'RE
ALMOST THERE. AND I FEEL LIKE THERE'S ALWAYS A DEFINING MOMENT
IN GOD WHERE GOD CHOOSES TO SHOW UP. AND ONE THING THAT I'VE
LEARNED ABOUT GOD IS HE'S VERY SUPERNATURAL, BUT HE'S VERY
PRACTICAL. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? HE'S VERY PRACTICAL. AND I SAID
TO GOD, I SAID, GOD, SOMETIMES YOU ARE VERY PREDICTABLE.
BECAUSE YOU SHOW THINGS IN SCRIPTURE, AND THE BIBLE SAYS IN
THE CORINTHIANS THAT, YOU KNOW, LIKE THE PARTING OF THE RED SEA
AND ALL OF THAT IS WRITTEN FOR OUR EXAMPLE, SO YOU GOTTA PAY
ATTENTION TO THEM. SO SOMETIMES WHEN YOU LOOK AT THOSE THINGS,
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND, OKAY, IF GOD DID IT THAT WAY, AND THEY'RE
WRITTEN FOR OUR EXAMPLES, THEN THERE MUST BE A CERTAIN
PREDICTABILITY OR CONSISTENCY OF THE GOD WHO DOESN'T CHANGE. SO I
STARTED NOTICING, AND I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE, BUT I WANT YOU TO
HEAR IT IN THIS CONTEXT. I WANNA GIVE YOU HOPE TODAY. THOSE OF
YOU IN YOUR NATION, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, USUALLY IN THE MIDDLE
OF SOMETHING, THERE'S THE DEFINING MOMENT. WE'RE RIGHT IN
THE MIDDLE OF THIS DECADE, JUST A LITTLE WAYS PAST. YOU LOOK AT
ALL THE TIMES IN THE BIBLE WHEN SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT HAPPENS,
WHEN THE BIBLE REFERENCES THE MIDDLE. WELL, SALVATION WAS
GIVEN TO ALL FROM SOMEBODY THAT WAS IN THE MIDDLE. IT WAS IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE RED SEA THAT GOD TOOK OUT THE ENEMY AND DELIVERED
A NATION. IT WAS IN THE MIDDAY THAT THE FIRE FELL IN THE TIMES
OF THE PROPHET ELIJAH. AND I'M TELLING YOU, THIS IS WHY, PAY
ATTENTION TO MAY 17TH. THERE'S SOMETHING THAT GOD IS SAYING, I
AM LOOKING AT THIS TIME, AND AMERICA, IF YOU'RE SERIOUS, AND
YOU WILL GATHER WITH YOUR LEADER, AND YOU WILL PRAY, AND
YOU WILL WORSHIP ME. OH, THE DAYS THAT ARE COMING, AND I
THINK THAT IT'S SIGNALING THE END OF THIS REFORMATION. I DO.
AND HERE'S THE OTHER THING THAT YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND, IS IF
GOD CAN TAKE THE CONDITIONS OF DONKEY HEAD, DOVE'S DUNG, AND
BOILING BABIES, AND ANNOUNCE TO A PROPHET THAT IT'S GOING TO
CHANGE TOMORROW. I BELIEVE IN MY HEART THAT THIS REFORMATION IS
COMING TO A PLACE OF RENAISSANCE. THERE'S GONNA BE
THAT SHIFT AND THAT CHANGE FOR THIS TIME TOMORROW, THAT SWIFT
CHANGE. THINGS ARE JUST GONNA START CHANGING IN YOUR LIFE.
START EXPECTING ANSWERS TO PRAYER. START EXPECTING A NEW
SEASON. START EXPECTING GOD TO DO SOMETHING THAT YOU'VE BEEN
DESIRING FOR HIM TO DO. I WANT YOU TO LIFT YOUR HAND UP TO GOD,
AND I WANT YOU TO SAY, "LORD, WE EXPECT IT." WE ARE BEING BROUGHT
OUT, ACCORDING TO DEUTERONOMY 6:23, WE ARE BEING BROUGHT OUT
FROM THE HARSH SEASON, FROM THE STRUGGLE, FROM THE DEMONIC
ENTITIES THAT HAVE BEEN TRYING TO ATTACK US. WE ARE BEING
DELIVERED. WE'RE BEING BROUGHT OUT SO THAT YOU ARE BRINGING US
IN THROUGH THE TIMES OF REFORMATION INTO AND THROUGH A
SHIFT CHANGE. AND WE DECREE THAT THIS SEASON IS COMING TO AN END
AND A NEW SEASON. WE BEHOLD, WE SEE THE ALMOND TREE WITH BUDS.
WE SEE OUR LIFE BUDDING. WE SEE OUR RELATIONSHIPS BUDDING, OUR
MARRIAGE, OUR FINANCES, OUR CHILDREN, OUR CITIES, OUR
NATION. WE SEE IT BUDDING BY THE GOD FACTOR THAT'S GONNA
RECAPTURE NOT ONLY MY LIFE, BUT A GENERATION. AND WE WILL STAND
AND WE WILL SEE THE HONOR AND THE GLORY OF GOD HIMSELF. AND
WE'LL BEHOLD IT WITH OUR EYES, THE GOODNESS OF THE LORD IN THE
LAND OF OUR LIVING, IN OUR NATION, THE NATIONS OF THE
EARTH. AND WE HONOR YOU TODAY GOD AND ALL THE PEOPLE SAID,
"AMEN, AMEN." ALL RIGHT, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU. FLASHPOINT
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT, IT'S GONNA BE GOOD. WE'RE GONNA
HAVE A GOOD TIME OF TEACHING, BUT I LOVE YOU. YOU KNOW, YOU
GUYS PULL IT OUT, YOU KNOW THAT? AND I JUST WANNA, YOU ONLINE
TOO, THANK YOU FOR PULLING OUT WHAT I BELIEVE GOD IS WANTING TO
PREACH TO YOU. SO GIVE YOUR ATTENTION RESPECTFULLY TO PASTOR
DOUG. GOD BLESS YOU, I LOVE YOU. ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. WHAT A
MESSAGE TODAY. SHARE THAT ONE WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND YOUR
RELATIVES AND EVEN YOUR ENEMIES, BECAUSE THAT WAS A GOOD ONE. GET
US BACK ON TRACK. WE'RE GETTING THERE. LET ME DISMISS THOSE THAT
HAVE ASSIGNMENTS TO WORK IN THE INFORMATION CENTER OR THE
CONNECT CAFE. YOU CAN LEAVE AT THIS TIME IF YOU NEED TO. THE
REST OF YOU, JUST STAY WITH ME FOR JUST A MOMENT, IF YOU WOULD.
I WANT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION. DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU DISHONOR GOD
IF YOU REJECT HIS PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE? THE GREATEST WAY THAT YOU
COULD DISHONOR THE LORD WOULD BE TO END UP IN HELL FOR ETERNITY
AND NOT MAKE IT TO HEAVEN. AND TO GO THROUGH THIS LIFE NOT
SERVING HIM AND NOT FOLLOWING HIS PLAN, THAT WOULD BE A GREAT
DISHONOR TO GOD. AND YOU HAVE THAT CHOICE. WE HAVE A CHOICE TO
HAVE HEAVEN AS OUR FUTURE. AND I'M TALKING TO YOU ONLINE TODAY
AS THOSE AS WELL THAT ARE HERE. REVELATION 21:27 SAYS, "ONLY
THOSE NAMES "THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE, "IN THE LAMB'S
BOOK OF LIFE, WILL BE ADMITTED TO HEAVEN." SO I WANNA ASK YOU
THAT QUESTION TODAY. IS YOUR NAME WRITTEN IN THE LAMB'S BOOK
OF LIFE? ARE YOU 100% SURE THAT IF YOU WERE TO LEAVE THIS EARTH
TODAY FOR WHATEVER REASON, AN ACCIDENT, SICKNESS, THINGS
HAPPEN, WE BELIEVE FOR A LONG LIFE. WE BELIEVE THAT'S OUR
COVENANT. BUT ARE YOU 100% SURE YOU WOULD MAKE IT TO HEAVEN? AND
ARE YOU FOLLOWING HIS PLAN? ARE YOU HONORING GOD? PASTOR HANK
SPOKE ABOUT MATTHEW 23:27, I BELIEVE IT WAS, WHEN HE FIRST
STARTED AND SAID, GOD'S OFFERED HIS PLAN OF REDEMPTION OVER AND
OVER AND OVER, BUT PEOPLE CHOOSE WILLFULLY TO REJECT IT. AND THE
GOOD NEWS IS WE DO HAVE A CHOICE. WE'RE NOT ROBOTS, BUT WE
HAVE TO MAKE THE CHOICE. GOD WON'T MAKE IT FOR US. HE HAS A
REDEMPTIVE PLAN FOR EVERY PERSON THAT CHOOSES HIM. GOD NEVER
CHOOSES TO SEND OR WANTS TO SEND ANYONE TO HELL. WE SEND THEM
OURSELVES TO HELL WHEN WE REJECT HIS PLAN OR WE SAY, "LORD, I
WANT TO DO IT MY WAY. I'M GONNA FOLLOW MY PLAN. I'VE BEEN
EDUCATED. I'VE GOT A PLAN. I'M GONNA JUST DO IT MY WAY. I'M
GONNA JUST WORK MY WAY THROUGH THIS LIFE, AND THEN WE'LL SEE
WHAT HAPPENS AT THE END." WHEN YOU MAKE THAT CHOICE, YOU'RE
MAKING A CHOICE THAT DISHONORS GOD, THAT'S NOT GOOD FOR YOUR
ETERNAL FUTURE. I'M GONNA ASK YOU TODAY, EVERYONE HERE,
EVERYONE ONLINE, BOW YOUR HEADS WITH ME, AND IF THERE'S SOMEONE
HERE AND YOU SAY, "I'M NOT HONORING GOD. I'M NOT 100% SURE
THAT I WOULD MAKE IT TO HEAVEN IF I LEFT THIS EARTH TODAY. I
NEED TO BE ASSURED." YOU CAN MAKE THAT DECISION TODAY. IT'S
AS SIMPLE AS STARTING WITH A PRAYER. IN A MOMENT, I'M GONNA
ASK YOU TO COME DOWN HERE, IF THAT'S YOU, AND IT WON'T HURT.
I'M GONNA SHAKE YOUR HAND. WE'RE GONNA GIVE YOU SOME LITERATURE
AND PRAY WITH YOU IF YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT DECISION. OR MAYBE YOU
MADE THAT DECISION IN THE PAST, BUT YOU GOT OFF. YOU GOT
INVOLVED IN THE WRONG RELATIONSHIPS. YOU'VE GOT
INVOLVED IN SOMETHING YOU SHOULDN'T BE, DRUGS, ALCOHOL,
WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE. IT DOESN'T MATTER. GOD HAS A REDEMPTIVE
PLAN FOR YOU. YOU CAN START OVER TODAY WITH A FRESH START, AND
HE'LL HONOR THAT. IF YOU JUST TURN FROM YOUR WAYS AND GO
TOWARDS HIM. DON'T BE EMBARRASSED. DON'T LET ANYONE
HOLD YOU BACK. I WANT YOU TO MAKE A DECISION TODAY, IF THAT'S
YOU. IS THERE ANYONE HERE, WHEN I COUNT TO THREE AND YOU SAY,
"PASTOR DOUG, I NEED TO REPENT. I NEED TO GET BACK ON TRACK. I
NEED TO GIVE MY LIFE TO JESUS AND DO IT GOD'S WAY. THIS IS THE
YEAR TO DO IT. THIS IS THE DAY TO DO IT." WHEN I COUNT TO
THREE, I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO RAISE YOUR HAND. ONE, TWO,
THREE. RAISE YOUR HAND IF THAT'S YOU. IF YOU NEED SALVATION
TODAY, YOU NEED TO MAKE JESUS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE, YOU NEED
TO GET BACK ON TRACK. IS THERE ANYONE HERE IN THIS BUILDING?
YOU'D BE BOLD ENOUGH TO RAISE YOUR HAND AND SAY, "I WANT
PRAYER TODAY, I'M GONNA MAKE IT RIGHT." I DON'T SEE ANY HANDS IN
HERE. IF YOU'RE WATCHING ONLINE, WE HAVE A PRAYER LINE YOU CAN
CALL, BUT I'M GONNA ASK YOU TO PRAY WITH ME. JUST REPEAT AFTER
ME AS I PRAY TODAY. FATHER IN HEAVEN. THANK YOU FOR SENDING
JESUS. I BELIEVE HE WENT TO THE CROSS OF CALVARY. HE DIED FOR
ME. HE GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME. AND I TODAY CHOOSE CHRIST AS MY
SAVIOR. I WILL LIVE FOR HIM ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE. FORGIVE ME
FOR ANY AND ALL SIN IN MY LIFE. COME INTO MY HEART AND MAKE ME A
NEW CREATION. IN JESUS' NAME I PRAY, AMEN. IF YOU PRAYED THAT
PRAYER TODAY, CALL OUR PRAYER LINE 855-777-7907. WE'LL RECORD
THAT INFORMATION, SEND YOU THE SAME LITERATURE WE WOULD GIVE
PEOPLE THAT ARE HERE, AND I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO GET PERSONAL PRAYER. ONE LAST THING THAT I
WANT TO GIVE A LITTLE TIME TO THIS MORNING, JUST TAKE ANOTHER
MINUTE OR SO. YOU RECEIVED A FLYER WHEN YOU CAME IN TODAY.
HOW MANY OF YOU GOT ONE OF THESE FLYERS? FIRST THING ON ONE SIDE
TALKS ABOUT MEMBERSHIP CLASS. THAT'S COMING UP, I BELIEVE IT'S
MARCH 5TH. THURSDAY, MARCH 5TH, 6:30 P.M. IF YOU BELIEVE GOD'S
CALLING YOU TO BE A MEMBER HERE AT LORD OF HOSTS AND SERVE UNDER
PASTORS HANK AND BRENDA, YOU HAVE TO BE A MEMBER IN ORDER TO
GET INVOLVED IN HELPS MINISTRY AND SERVE HERE. AND EACH OF US
AS CHRISTIANS ARE CALLED, WE HAVE GIFTS AND ANOINTINGS AND
ABILITIES THAT GOD WILL USE IN US, BUT WE NEED TO PUT THEM TO
WORK. AND SO I'D ENCOURAGE YOU, IF YOU'RE NOT A MEMBER YET, SIGN
UP TODAY AT THE INFORMATION CENTER. SECOND POINT, ON THE
BACKSIDE OF THIS, IT SAYS CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW. DID YOU
KNOW THAT RECENT POLLS IN ABOUT THE LAST TWO YEARS TELL US THAT
ONLY 6% OF PEOPLE THAT CALL THEMSELVES CHRISTIANS ACTUALLY
HAVE A CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW? AND WHAT I MEAN IS BY THAT, THEY
DON'T BELIEVE WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES ABOUT DIFFERENT AREAS OF
LIFE, WHETHER IT'S WORK, TAXES, EDUCATION, MONEY, VOTING, OR
MARRIAGE, THEY'VE BEEN INDOCTRINATED WITH SECULAR
VIEWPOINTS FROM PUBLIC SCHOOLS, PUBLIC SECULAR UNIVERSITIES, THE
MEDIA BLASTING THEM. THEY REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT GOD'S WORD
SAYS. AND THAT'S THE STARTING POINT. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A
BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW, HOW CAN YOU BE SUCCESSFUL IN SERVING GOD AND
FOLLOWING HIS PLAN AND GETTING INVOLVED IN THE AREAS THAT GOD'S
CALLING YOU TO DO? HOW CAN YOU BE A GOOD WITNESS FOR CHRIST IF
YOU DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW? LET ME SHOW
YOU ONE MORE SCREEN. THIS IS A LITTLE MORE ENCOURAGING THAN
THAT STATISTIC. IF YOU'LL PUT THAT UP FOR ME, WE PROVIDE A
PEERS TEST WITH THIS, WHICH WILL ACTUALLY EVALUATE YOUR CURRENT
BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW. YOU CAN TAKE THAT IN THE PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN
HOME AND DETERMINE WHERE YOU'RE AT. BUT THIS IS AVERAGE STATS
FROM SPIRIT-FILLED, BIBLE-BELIEVING CHURCHES TO SEE
WHERE PEOPLE FALL BEFORE THEY TAKE THE CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW
CLASS. POLITICS, THEY'RE RATED AS A MODERATE IN THE 40 TO 50%
RANGE. ECONOMICS, 40 TO 50%. EDUCATION, EVEN WORSE, 42% AS A
MODERATE CHRISTIAN. MOST PEOPLE THINK IT'S THE GOVERNMENT'S JOB
TO PROVIDE EDUCATION FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. IT'S NOT
TRUE. RELIGION IS A LITTLE BIT MORE POSITIVE. IF YOU'RE IN A
BIBLE-BELIEVING, SPIRIT-FILLED CHURCH, PEOPLE WERE RATING IN
THE 70 PERCENTILE. THAT'S NOT GOOD. IT'S NOT 100%, BUT THAT'S
CERTAINLY BETTER. SO THEY WERE RATED AS A BIBLICAL THEIST IN
RELIGION. SOCIAL ISSUES, A LITTLE BETTER, 61 RANGE. AND
THEN THE COMPOSITE, THOUGH, OUT OF BIBLE-BELIEVING CHURCHES IS
ABOUT 50% OF THEM HAVE BIBLICAL WORLDVIEWS. THEY'RE IN THAT
RANGE OF THE SCORE. SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU, ONE OF THE MOST
IMPORTANT THINGS YOU CAN DO IS TAKE SIX WEEKS IN MARCH. AND IF
YOU CAN ONLY MAKE IT TO THREE OR FOUR OR FIVE CLASSES, THAT'LL
STILL HELP YOU. AND TAKE THOSE TUESDAY NIGHTS. IT'S COMING UP
ON MARCH 3RD THROUGH APRIL 7TH, SIX TUESDAY EVENINGS FROM 6:30
TO 8. IT WILL CHANGE YOUR WORLD BECAUSE IT'LL CHANGE YOUR VIEW.
I'M EXPECTING 100 PEOPLE IN THAT CLASS BECAUSE WE NEED TO GET OUR
BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW CORRECTED IF WE'RE GOING TO MOVE FORWARD IN
EVERYTHING THAT GOD HAS FOR US. AMEN. YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR THAT
TODAY AT THE INFORMATION CENTER. AND IT'S FREE OF CHARGE. YOU CAN
MAKE A DONATION FOR THE CLASS. YOU'LL EACH GET A WORKBOOK. BUT
IT IS ENTERTAINING, IT'S FUN, BUT YOU'LL LEARN A LOT. AND
IT'LL HELP CHANGE YOUR VIEW TO GOD'S WORD. AMEN? OK, WELL,
THANK YOU FOR COMING TODAY. GOD BLESS YOU. THANK YOU, ONLINE
AUDIENCE, FOR WATCHING. AND WE'LL SEE YOU BACK IN THE HOUSE
FOR PASTOR HANK WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THAT'LL BE GREAT. DON'T MISS IT.
GOD BLESS YOU, AND HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK.
