-
You came to church today to get closer to God.
-
I said this last week. I'm gonna keep saying it.
-
Just know that if you're close enough to hear the
-
heartbeat of God, you will hear him yearning for souls.
-
And we can't close our ears. We can't.
-
We can't say la la la la la la lai,
-
who have taken care of me? Who's going to take
-
care of me? We can't do that.
-
We have to hear it.
-
My hearts cry for new horizon during these weeks on missions,
-
is that you will begin to develop.
-
Burden.
-
You might say to me, Joel, I don't need.
-
Any more burdens. I have enough of my own.
-
But I would say to you people of God, you
-
have seen the light, you have heard the blessed Gospel.
-
You have been set free from sin and death. You
-
have been given the keys to the Kingdom. You have
-
felt the spirit of God, and he's calling you to
-
come close to him. It's an interesting fact that cardiac cells,
-
your heart cells. Your heart is made of a whole
-
bunch of little cells, and every single one of the
-
cells of your heart has an intrinsic beat to it.
-
Every single cell.
-
And if you took a cell of that heart of
-
your heart and remove it and put it into a
-
petri dish. It would continue to have its beat.
-
But the cool thing is.
-
Is if you take a heart cell from another person
-
and kept it alive. They do this and they put
-
it next to the heart cell of another person, they
-
will sink up and they will begin to contract together.
-
I'm telling you the heart of God is for souls,
-
and if.
-
You want to be close to God, your heart needs
-
to sink up.
-
With his.
-
And if your.
-
Heart is beating for anything other than what God's heart
-
is beating for, it isn't gonna work.
-
You're gonna have division. It's not gonna go Luke fifteen.
-
There once was a shepherd with a hundred lambs I'm
-
reading out of the Passion. But one of his lambs
-
wandered away and was lost. So the shepherd left the
-
ninety nine lambs out in the open field and searched
-
in the wilderness for that one lost lamb. He didn't
-
stop until he finally found it, and with exuberant joy,
-
he raised it up, placed it on his shoulders, carrying
-
it back with cheerful delight. Returning home, he called his
-
friends and neighbors together and said.
-
Let's have a party.
-
Come and celebrate with me the return of my lost lamb.
-
That's the heartbeat of God. That's the heartbeat of God.
-
I am asking you, people of God, will you sync up?
-
Will you allow a burden of the Lord to come
-
into your soul?
-
Or will you push it away and say no?
-
Will you allow a burden of the Lord that even
-
in the midst of your.
-
Joys and your victories, and your life and the things
-
that you do day in and.
-
Day out that are so vital and so gloriously blessed
-
by our heavenly Father because you are a child of His.
-
But we went learned last week that everything God does
-
for us.
-
And the revival that he does, and the awakening of
-
that he does inside of our souls, has the seed
-
for souls in it.
-
It is meant for you, yes, to be blessed.
-
Oh Father, Thank you for healing me, forgiving me. Sometimes
-
we forget the goodness.
-
Of God in our lives. But would you be willing.
-
To nurse the heart of God inside of your soul
-
as well? Would you be willing we in America we forget,
-
We get on our little red bring God of God, God, God, Godda.
-
But I will tell you.
-
You come into these four walls, I'll remind you of
-
the heart beat of God.
-
I'll remind you. I'll remind you.
-
Would you stand in the gap? Would you pray? Would
-
you love? Would you give? Would you care? Would you
-
let the burden of the Lord come upon you?
-
Holy Spirit, Oh Jesus, right now.
-
Sin is an ugly thing. Sin is an ugly thing.
-
It comes to kill, destroy, in.
-
Prison, ruin.
-
Sin came into this young woman's life, meant to completely
-
rob her of everything.
-
But God, you carry the light of the.
-
Lord inside of you.
-
You are his ambassador.
-
You are the one that has heard of the.
-
Goodness of God.
-
Are you keeping it to yourself?
-
People of God?
-
I'm here to activate, motivate, ignite every other something a
-
kate to get you to get out of your self
-
and get.
-
You beyond you. I know you have struggles.
-
I know it's hard sometimes, But God says, would you
-
look beyond you sometimes?
-
And when we do that, when we take up his burden, he.
-
Promises it will be light.
-
He promises his yoke will be easy.
-
And there's life for you in the laying down of yours.
-
Holy Spirit.
-
Oh Jesus, he's moving on you right now, Holy Spirit,
-
which you close your eyes?
-
Holy Spirit, move, Holy Spirit, move, Holy Spirit move.
-
Put a burden in our souls.

Help us to know and see and understand, help us
-
to be aware and God, I declare right now in fife,
-

-
Your kingdom come like never before. Oh Jesus, Father God,
-
I pray for our hearts. Lord God, sink us up
-
to your heart beat. I don't want my heart to
-
beat for me. I don't want my heart to beat
-
for me any long. Girl, Father God, for your heart
-
beats for me. You will care for me, you will
-
watch over me. You answer my needs. God, right now,
