-
Yeah, come on, hallelujah, Good morning everyone.
-
Are we ready? Are we excited? I'm excited. I'm excited. Uh.
-
The Lord's been working on this uh word with me,
-
uh and he's been giving me downloads since the summit
-
and that's when it actually all first uh came out.
-
But let's stand for the Word together and let's dive in.
-
Father.
-
We just thank you God, Holy Spirit. We just pray
-
right now God that uh, your presence would rest on
-
us today, Holy Spirit. I pray that you would saturate
-
the house fully. Let this be a continuation of our
-
worship and our loving and our giving to you, God.
-
Father. I pray that the understanding of our hearts and
-
our minds be open to your word today. We thank
-
you in Jesus' name. Amen. Amen, m So the title
-
is Beyond the Garden, uh huh. So get ready, we're
-
gonna do a deep dive. Okay.
-
We're going to need to ignite and activate the two
-
last sermons that we heard preached here on the pulpit.
-
We're going to activate our imaginations, our sanctified imaginations, and
-
we're going to also activate the mind of Christ for this.
-
So you guys ready to dive in with me.
-
If you got your notepads, get them ready to go,
-
because I'm going to be moving fast initially, right, because
-
I'm going to be conscious of our time. But also
-
I want to tell you it's going to be packed
-
full of information. You may need to rewatch it later,
-
but that's how it goes.
-
We'll let the Lord lead us, right, Okay.
-
So what if I told you that the reason for
-
Jesus dying was not just to bring you eternal life,
-
and that the beginning of the story actually has a
-
lot more to do with our present time.
-
Okay? Yes, and yes, I heard a lot of yeses. Amen. Amen, Okay,
-
So let's let's go through it. Right.
-
It says in the Word of God in Proverbs twenty
-
five too, that it is the glory of God to
-
conceal a matter, but it is the glory.
-
Of kings to search out a matter. Right.
-
One thing that I got out of that verse was
-
that kings are anointed of God. That means that the
-
spirit would have to rest on them. So in order
-
for us to deeply dive into this world, I want
-
you to say, Holy Spirit, lead me, reveal to me
-
your mysteries.
-
Okay, Amen?
-
Jesus plainly told us in the parables. When he was
-
giving parables out he told the apostles that he in
-
fact that when they asked him, they said, hey, Jesus,
-
why do you speak in parables? He said to them
-
what he said, I speak in parables so that you
-
may understand, but that they.
-
May not so.
-
Hearing they would not hear, and seeing they could not
-
see nor understand. But to us say to us, it
-
has been granted.
-
Amen.
-
Okay, So I want to show you a little bit
-
of Hebrew today in some Hebrew letters that actually talk
-
about the garden. Okay, there's a lot of mystery wrapped
-
up sometimes in the Hebrew languge that we can't exactly
-
like extrapolate out in our own language in English language. Right,
-
And how many of you guys know that Hebrew is
-
made out of three different types of languages. So it's
-
number one, it's Aramaic, number two it's Hebrew, and number
-
three it's actually pictorial. So actually every word gives you
-
a meaning, every letter, every jot in tittle, like Jesus said,
-
every single word gives you a word picture. This is
-
why the imagination for us is going to be important
-
we're going to need it more than ever for this, okay.
-
So I'm just setting you guys up for this because
-
i want you to know this about Hebrew. It is
-
a cursive style writing. There is other teachers out there
-
in the past, like Miles Munroe, that have said that
-
it's actually more like a it's more of a calligraphy.
-
The word is calligraphy. It is a calligraphy type of writing.
-
So every single jot, tittle, or every single time that
-
you make a stroke, it gives you a different picture. Okay,
-
I want to go ahead and dive in there. From that,
-
it is read from right to left, from right to left, okay,
-
not from left to right like in English. Because of
-
the pictorial nature, every single letter is going to give
-
us a word or a meaning, and so I want
-
us to be able to grab this. Okay, let's go
-
into what is next. When I mentioned Miles Monroe, I
-
just want us to keep this in mind. I'm quoting
-
the man because you know, oftentimes we try to do
-
things that are brand new all the time. We try
-
to like remake the wheel right, but that's not how
-
the Kingdom of Heaven works. Kingdom of Heaven works like
-
this we allow their ceiling to become our floor, right,
-
and so we build upon those things. So, as God
-
was talking to me in the summit and revealing things
-
to me personally, I said, well, maybe there's something else
-
that I can learn. Right, I've heard Pastor Dwayne preach
-
up here about the garden, and so I'm just taking
-
all this information in. And so you guys are taking
-
in information that's maybe new to you, but definitely it's
-
new to me. So I've been learning a lot about this.
-
And so let's put these words up right here, mister
-
Devon in the back. Okay, these words right here are
-
called ayen, dalette, and noon. It's actually noon like our afternoon. Okay,
-
that spells Eden. Ayen is pictured as an eye or
-
to see, to experience.
-
To understand means door.
-
That opens up to a pathway. Noon means life and activity.
-
So Eden is a place where you enter through the
-
door and enter the pathway that leads to life. Okay,
-
immediately you begin to see a type and shadow of
-
Jesus Christ. Remember I told you need your imagination to
-
understand Hebrew. Okay, you're gonna need this because everything's painting
-
a picture for you. Okay, so I'm just laying the groundwork.
-
Miles Monroe, he is now passed by the way. He
-
said that every every single thing that you would stroke
-
would draw something out right. His research showed that the
-
strokes of the word eden gave us the following descriptions moment,
-
spot presence, pleasant moment, or delightful atmosphere.
-
Moment means open door.
-
Therefore eden means a spot on the earth for a
-
moment where there is an open door to Heaven. Amazing, right, Okay,
-
So Adam was given full access to God. It was
-
in God's presence always. The Tree of Knowledge resided in
-
the garden that God planted in. There also was the
-
tree of life. It's important to keep these things in mind, Okay. Right,
-
when Jesus spoke about the Kingdom of Heaven being at hand,
-
what he was signaling or emphasizing was the last time
-
that mankind had authority given to him.
-
And it goes all the way back to the garden. Okay.
-
Chapter two of Genesis begins with giving us a breakdown
-
of what happened during and after the creation was finished.
-
Chapter two of Genesis, please verse eight. The Lord God
-
planted a garden eastward in Eden, say eastward, and there
-
he put the man whom he formed. And out of
-
the ground, the Lord God made every tree grow that
-
is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The
-
tree of life was also in the midst of the garden,
-
and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Okay,
-
observe here we are actually seeing that we have eternity
-
at that moment and free will. God's character then is
-
represented as one of love.
-
See.
-
His character is that he made us just like the angels,
-
but different form.
-
Angels have free will.
-
A lot of people don't even realize that angels actually
-
have free will. Did you know that angels have free will?
-
That's how Satan fell.
-
Right?
-
Sometimes I think we speak and then all these things
-
blows away, But then we're like, well, well, how did
-
Satan fall right? So he had free will? Okay, So
-
he made us with that choice choose life or death.
-
It's up to you. Right.
-
He created a similar to the angels in that sense,
-
and we have access at that moment. We had access
-
to the world through the garden, and we had access
-
to the presence of God through the garden.
-
Okay.
-
Now it says here in verse fifteen then the Lord
-
God took the man and put him in the garden
-
to tend and keep it.
-
Where was the garden eastward eastward? Okay, okay.
-
Then the Lord God took the man put him in
-
the garden to tend and keep it.
-
Say, tend and keep it.
-
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, of every
-
tree of the garden you may freely eat. But of
-
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you
-
shall not eat. From the day you eat it, you
-
shall surely die. And verse eighteen says and the Lord
-
God said, it is not good that man should be alone.
-
So out of all the creatures, there was Eve. Right,
-
he said, I'm gonna pull I'm gonna there was no
-
out of all creatures, there was no creature like him.
-
So he pulls Eve out of Adam. Right, and so
-
he creates her in verse twenty five. Let's go to
-
verse twenty five. It says here about Adam and Eve,
-
and they were both naked, the man and his wife,
-
and were not ashamed. The following chapter, the serpent comes
-
in into the garden, deceives Eve and Adam. They eat
-
of the fruit, right, And let's go to verse eight,
-
and they heard the sound of the Lord God walking
-
in the garden in the cool of the day, and
-
Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of
-
the Lord among the trees of the garden. Then the
-
Lord God called to Adam and said to him, where
-
are you? So he said, I heard your voice in
-
the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked,
-
and I hid myself. And he said, who told you
-
that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree
-
of which I commanded you that you should not eat.
-
My first observation.
-
In this was actually looking up what it meant to
-
be together in the cool of the day, because I
-
thought that there would be like, oh, this is going
-
to be great. It's gonna be a moment of time
-
that you know that that's when they meet up and
-
all this stuff, et cetera, et cetera. But I looked
-
it up and it's actually the word ruach. Some of
-
you guys are like, what do you mean? Yeah, Spirit,
-
The same verse that he used to define the Holy
-
Spirit in chapter one, verse two is the same word
-
that he uses here to say in the cool of
-
the day. Interesting, right, So the Holy Spirit shows up
-
in the garden and he manifests himself loudly enough so
-
that way, because he says, I had to read the
-
whole thing in Hebrew. Okay, so I'm gonna tell you.
-
It said basically that the Lord came rolling in in
-
a loud sound, in a loud wind, and he blew
-
into the garden and he goes where are you? In
-
other words, that's signifying that that Adam was not where
-
he was supposed to be, not God but Adam. So
-
he's actually asking him the question of where are you
-
supposed to be?
-
And why aren't you there? You are?
-
You are somewhere else and for some reason I can't
-
really see you. And the funny thing is, you know
-
he said I was naked, so I hid myself.
-
That was a lie. He already had fake leaves on
-
you ever think of that.
-
I was naked so I hid myself. No, what you
-
heard was the Lord came in in a mighty wind,
-
and he comes in and he yells for you, where
-
are you? And then you hide yourself from the Lord.
-
That's important. It's important to think about.
-
Observe that he first, God first pursues us. God's first
-
pursuit was for us. He is there so quickly to
-
redeem man so quickly like that. But but what Adam did,
-
in turn, was from hiding from him. And this is
-
something that we don't often hear. It was an attack
-
on God's character. He had already convinced himself, and she
-
had already convinced herself that God is not happy, that
-
God is angry, that God is going to chastise me,
-
that God is much more holier than I.
-
How can I approach him? Therefore I'm insufficient.
-
Therefore God must be a mean God, and I'm insufficient
-
in his eyes. So they judge God and hide themselves.
-
That's the story of humanity because of their misconception of God,
-
they're judging his character wrongly.
-
Amen.
-
So he comes in like a huge sound, unlike a
-
still small voice. So a lot of people try to
-
preach about Elijah and how he was in the cave
-
and how all this stuff was going on outside. But
-
God was not in those things, right, and so they
-
love to talk about And God came in in a small,
-
still voice. Therefore, you know, if it's loud, if it's wild,
-
if it's frustrating things, then it's not God. That's not true. Here,
-
He clearly the first showing up to mankind in the
-
garden after they sin outside in the garden. They're sinning
-
in the garden, right, and he comes in. He crashes
-
into the garden basically and goes, where are you? Right?
-
There was another sound that came out, just like that
-
in Pentecost, if we go all the way to Pentecost
-
in chapter two of Acts right, it said that the
-
Lord came in as a mighty rushing wind. It suddenly
-
there came a sound from heaven as of a mighty
-
rushing win, and it filled the whole.
-
House where they were sitting. Right.
-
But it was so loud that it drew the attention
-
of everybody else around them. It drew it so much
-
that these people perceived that everybody was out of their minds,
-
that everybody who received the fire of God upon them
-
and everyone who received tongues was insane, and that they.
-
Were all drunk at this time of day. Right.
-
So it got loud, It got loud, Say it got loud,
-
It got loud, right, And the first thing religious people
-
did was go, poof, they're drunk. What's going on over there?
-
That can't be God. God's spirit came during Pentecosts.
-
Right.
-
Here's here's something I believe God wants us to highlight.
-
The reason why people don't enjoy the Holy Spirit and
-
truly want his presence is because, much like Adam's time,
-
his presence require full transparency, real nakedness before the God
-
who they're beholding. You have to have true transparency before
-
the God who you're beholding. Know whom you stand for,
-
Know who you stand before.
-
Right.
-
The reason why people mock charismatic circles with their religious
-
talk is because they don't enjoy really being honest about
-
their sins. In order to feel better about themselves, they
-
create a religion that shows outward piety superficial faith, but
-
inwardly they're using religious leaves to cover for themselves from
-
the presence of God. They created their own covering their
-
own sufficiency.
-
Therefore, God is not their covering get in the mental picture.
-
They won't allow Holy Spirit to reign in their church
-
because that requires transparency, humility, and religion doesn't think they
-
need that. They already have transparency. They think they have
-
humility an honest relationship with God. John one to five
-
says this, and the light shines in the darkness and
-
the darkness did not comprehend. It may that never be
-
said about us.
-
Amen. Amen, moving forward, let's go to the conclusion of
-
the garden.
-
Then the Lord God said, behold, the man has become
-
like one of us to know good and evil unless
-
he put out his hand and take also of the
-
tree of life.
-
And eat and live forever.
-
So he drove the man out, and he placed Cherubim
-
at the east of the garden, say east of Eden,
-
and the flaming sword, which turned every way to guard
-
the way to the Tree of life.
-
This is a picture of.
-
Our walk back into the garden. When God drove out
-
the man, it says that he expelled him. The primitive
-
use of that word is garash, and the Hebrew it
-
means to expatriate or divorce. Now we know what divorce means, right,
-
But this word expatriation was new for me. So I
-
read it, and I said, it means a person who
-
lives outside of their native country, to be expatriated. So
-
which tells us that if Adam was expatriated out of
-
the presence of God. That gives us clear indication that
-
in the third chapter, right at the beginning of the
-
word that our native home is actually the presence of God.
-
Hallelujah. That's good news. Amen.
-
So the Holy Spirit and the presence of God is
-
actually where we're from, and that is our home until
-
the fulfillment this This didn't happen though, that we were repatriated.
-
We were brought back into our home until the fulfilled
-
of the law through.
-
The sacrifice of Christ. Remember door, he says, what about himself?
-
I am the door. It's in the.
-
Word Eden, right, Okay, so Paul writes in One Corinthians
-
fifteen forty five. And so it is written, the first
-
atom became living being, the last atom became a life
-
giving spirit. Our lives as believers are to become more
-
like Jesus through the mind that is in him. By
-
the use of our imaginations. When we read, we can
-
get to understand Adam's first works, which is to edonize
-
the world. When he said ten and keep it right,
-
so he was already doing work in the garden. You
-
guys getting that? Okay, All right, let's see. Let's look
-
at something because Psalm ninety two jumped out at me
-
when I was doing this.
-
Let's go to verse twelve.
-
We love to read this because we love to we
-
we love this this psalm.
-
It uplifts me right.
-
The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree. He shall
-
grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those who are planted
-
in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the
-
courts of our God. They shall still bear fruit in
-
old age. They shall be fresh and flourishing. Amen, Say Amen,
-
A man. I feel like this though, is actually a
-
blueprint of what God asked us to build in the
-
desert when it came down to the Tabernacle and he
-
all and is also part of the Temple of Solomon
-
and the Herodian Temple, as well as the Garden. Okay,
-
let's uh, let's do it like this in this verse.
-
In this verse, we're observing one thing I want to say.
-
In this verse, we're observing that the outcome of the
-
continued dwelling God's garden, where we get to meet with God,
-
he ends up making us one with himself. Okay, let's
-
take a look at a picture of the Tabernacle of Moses.
-
That's the Tabernacle of Moses. Okay, so y'all know how
-
those how these things have worked since then. So usually
-
there's an outer court, say court, holy Place, Holy of Holies.
-
Okay, so there's three. It's multi layered. Okay. Okay.
-
Now let's go to the Temple of Herod. Courts on
-
the outside, there's a gate there. In the front, there's courts,
-
holy Place, Holy of Holies. In the court, you do
-
your sacrifices.
-
Okay.
-
That's where every common man, every single person, including the priests,
-
must first go through. Common man must go through the court.
-
Common man, every single one who's not serving in the
-
House of God has to be in the court. I
-
want to make that clear, Okay. The court from the
-
Holiest of Holies is always eastward. No matter where they
-
were building, the entrance is always eastward. When the Tabernacle
-
of Moses was being erected, it always was the entrance
-
eastward the garden.
-
The cheruban blocked the door.
-
In the east side of the garden, and the entrance
-
to the garden was in the east. These trees are
-
planted where in the courts of our God there ain't
-
no trees there only in one of the places. The
-
original blueprint, the one that says God planted the garden
-
eastward in Eden. Hallelujah, Come on, are you seeing the
-
picture Genesis two eight. Again, the Lord God planted a
-
garden eastward in Eden, and there he put man whom
-
he had formed mankind one place where he enters in
-
to go and meet God. You come eastward in the
-
courts of God. You come eastward in the garden. He
-
came from the east because that is where God places us,
-
so that way we can meet him. So when God
-
said to him, where are you? That means that he
-
wasn't doing what he was supposed to be doing. That
-
lets us know that God has had an expectation of
-
where he should have been.
-
Right, a yeat that. Let noon, right are you seeing
-
the picture Eden?
-
Let's go into the New Testament because some of you
-
guys might think that what does this.
-
Have to do with Jesus right now?
-
Right even though I told you already that he said
-
he's the door. Let's read Hebrews chapter nine, verse eleven.
-
But Christ came as a high priest of good things
-
to come with a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not
-
made with hands, that is not of this creation, not
-
with the blood of goats and caps, but with his
-
own blood. He entered the most holy place once and
-
for all having obtained eternal redemption. Right, a more perfect tabernacle,
-
Meaning what what is not in our creation right now?
-
The garden?
-
Right, we can't visibly see it. It is not in
-
this realm. It is not where we can see it physically.
-
Right.
-
So let's go further. Let's go, let's go into the
-
birth of the church right and after the birth of
-
the Church, which is Pentecost right one Corinthians three sixteen.
-
Do you not know that you are the temple of
-
God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
-
See?
-
This is what the enemy has been against the entire time. This,
-
this is what he's been against the entire time. Is
-
you understanding and getting a picture that you are actually
-
the temple? Those other temples and the garden, you are
-
actually the temple of the Holy Spirit.
-
The enemy doesn't ever want you to believe that.
-
He doesn't want you to come to the knowledge of that,
-
because once you know that the Holy One of Israel, God,
-
Almighty Elohim, right, holy Spirit, the first one mentioned by
-
name in the whole of Genesis, right, dwells inside of
-
you in the most holy place, a creation not made
-
with hands, but with only God. It says that He
-
knit us inside of our mother's womb.
-
Right, so they.
-
Were created, We're made and wrought by God himself. And
-
so you've been designed for this. You've been designed to
-
hold the entire universe and the entire world that is
-
being held together by Almighty God dwells inside of you.
-
And if He dwells inside of you, it says, he
-
who lives in me is greater than he who is
-
in the world. He who dwells in me, say me
-
is greater than he who is in the world. Hallelujah.
-
Come on.
-
Acts Chapter seventeen, verse twenty four says, God, who made
-
the world and everything in it, since he is the
-
lore of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples
-
made with hands. I got a whole list of scriptures here.
-
I want to go to John chapter one, verse fifty one.
-
Though Roman touched on this one last week in the
-
beginning fifty one, you don't have it. Then, he said,
-
I tell you the truth. You will all see heaven
-
open and the Angel of God going up and down
-
on the sign of Man, the one who is the
-
stairway between heaven and Earth. Okay, he said that last week, right,
-
So what does that tell you if you have walked
-
in through the doorway right past the cherubim, right that
-
we're hiding the sun. He has been concealed from the
-
beginning until his revelation, right and after you have gone
-
in the pathway right into trying to reach everlasting life.
-
There's only one spirit that guarantees everlasting life, one who
-
is the down payment of salvation, one who is the
-
confirmation of salvation, the one who is depicted right, there's
-
a type and a shadow on that pathway to life
-
by the flaming sword.
-
Because what he is, the Holy Spirit.
-
Every time he shows up, there's fire, a flaming sword
-
turning every which way. In Ephesians it says that he
-
is the sword of the Spirit.
-
Right.
-
So you're on this, you're on this journey into salvation,
-
and there's only one of those who you have to
-
absolutely get passed and get through and get too, and
-
that is the fire of the Holy Ghost. You need
-
the Holy Ghost, You need the Holy Spirit. He is
-
your only guarantee. He is your only guarantee of salvation.
-
He is the down payment of Jesus Christ to the Father,
-
so that you may inherit eternal life. So sometimes we
-
think that. Sometimes we think that, Okay, so we walk
-
through the door Jesus Christ into the heavenly realm, and
-
then all of the sudden, things aren't really looking too
-
great for us. All of the sudden we're wondering why
-
we're so cold, we're why are we so down on ourselves?
-
Why are we so down on our luck? Why are
-
we Why is the world beating me up all the time?
-
He points back to the last time we had dominion
-
on earth.
-
He points back to that.
-
But you will not have that unless that gets inside
-
of you, like literally inside of you. The revelation of
-
God needs to come and dwell and have his being
-
like we got to have our being in him, Paul says.
-
We live and breathe and have our being inside him,
-
but He dwells in us, making us one with himself.
-
Hallelujah.
-
So we're beginning to understand that Eden is inward now, right,
-
that the world experiences eating through the believer.
-
Now we no.
-
Longer walk in the inward, We no longer walk where
-
we're experiencing eating out here. We're walking with it inside
-
of here. And we've received the mandate of Jesus Christ
-
and we're edonizing the world.
-
So every single.
-
Step that the church takes, it's taking back ground, it's
-
taking back dominion.
-
It's growing the garden.
-
We're plowing, we're planting, We're seeing fruit come up out
-
of the ground. Right, we are trees planted in the
-
courts of our God. Right, and we have brought forth
-
righteousness and life, and we're giving and we're sharing with
-
the world. They got technology that they've never seen before.
-
They've got dreams they've never even heard of. They've got
-
vision that somehow just comes out of the blue. Right,
-
the whole entire world benefited from Christianity, and a lot
-
of them are even failing to recognize it. So much
-
so that many many churches have grown, and many many
-
churches that are just religious. They're living the same experience
-
that the world is because they.
-
Lack one thing, the fire.
-
They lack, the holy ghosts they lacking, they're lacking the
-
Holy Spirit, the one that that you can drink from
-
that well and you will never run dry, the one
-
that you can go to. You will never grow tired,
-
you will never have a fire that is put out,
-
because he is the.
-
Fire of God. Yea, even more than that, in the garden.
-
There were riches, there was gold, there was there was
-
expensive sense. Right, there's a fragrance in the garden. It
-
says that dillium was even there, right in that region
-
of the garden. And so there's a fraid that is released.
-
Say I release a fragrance to this world, letting them
-
know that the Holy Spirit is present.
-
Holy Spirit, have your way.
-
There is splendor. Every blessing in Christ is found in
-
the garden.
-
It is all in here.
-
Including everlasting life. And we still He's so scandalous in
-
his grace. We still have free will choose life or death.
-
Jesus Aaron's rod, that hidden side of the ark in
-
the whole holiest place. Remember how I told you that
-
the temple right signifies.
-
Us. We are now the temple. There's a most holy
-
place inside of us.
-
Aaron's rod that went into the arc of the Covenant
-
signified election and dominion, election and authority that dwells inside,
-
and the world deeply yearns it groans for you to
-
be revealed to it. Will you let the Holy Spirit
-
get inside of you and permeate inside of you When
-
he asks you where are you, that you will be
-
ready to answer the question, I am here, Lord, I'm
-
here fully, bear fully, tank spare it with you, even
-
though I brought yuck from the past, even though I
-
was a sinner yesterday, even though I just sind this morning.
-
Whatever it is, Lord, i am here bear before you,
-
Oh Lord, forgive me, Holy Spirit, do your work in me,
-
Holy Spirit. Would you release a fragrance of your presence
-
around me? Help me, Lord to do your will in
-
order that we igonize this world together. We get it
-
all back to Christ, the one door. All this power
-
is found within. We move from outward encounters in the
-
Old Testament to an upon encounter.
-
In the.
-
Before Moses, there was outward expressions of God to man.
-
After Moses, there was an upon anointing of God. When Jesus,
-
the Son of God comes and he establishes the Kingdom
-
on earth, things change. Things change so much that he says,
-
now the Kingdom of God is in you, is in you.
-
If you believe that, will you allow him to strip
-
away sin, negative thoughts about.
-
Him, insecurities?
-
Would you allow him to strip away offenses, let go
-
of doubt, your anxiety's hatred. Will you desire him so
-
much that all those things just don't make sense anymore
-
to keep they're meaningless. In his presence, Paul said like
-
this in Romans eighteen. He said, for I consider that
-
the sufferings of this present.
-
Time are not worthy.
-
They're not worthy, They're not worthy to be compared with
-
the glory that shall be revealed in us. Say in me,
-
the glory that is being revealed in me, the glory
-
that is being revealed in me. See, there was a time,
-
there was a time where I felt dry. There was
-
a time where the enemy told me you will never
-
get up here and speak. You're gonna shut your mouth.
-
You're not gonna come out of there. You are, who
-
do you think you are?
-
Frank? There was a time there was a time where.
-
I was like, hey, look, I'm doing all this stuff
-
for God. I'm always doing. I'm always doing, I'm always doing.
-
And he said that's not enough. See, some of you
-
may be going through the same struggle. You'll never get
-
accomplish your goals, you'll never accomplish your dreams. But when
-
God showed up, When God showed up, when God came,
-
when God came, he said.
-
Frank, where are you. I'm here, God, I'm here, God,
-
I'm here. God, what do you mean What do you mean?
-
I'm here? Lord?
-
He said, no, you've been behaving, not like Frank. I
-
need you to step up. See, I heard the invitation.
-
I heard the invitation. This is why I'm up here.
-
When God calls you by name, and he calls you
-
out of that pit, and he says, get out of depression,
-
get out of anxiety right now?
-
Where are you?
-
Whatever place you find yourself in, doubt, lack, all those
-
are found in here.
-
When he comes to you and he tells you, where
-
are you? Where is the man of God that I
-
called out?
-
Where is the woman of God that I declared and
-
anointed over? I gave you an annointing? Where is that annointing?
-
I need my reward back, That's what God was saying.
-
I need my reward back. Where is the reward for you?
-
Frank? Where is the reward for you? Say? God, I'm here. God,
-
We're here. He is so good, His grace, his mercy
-
endures forever.
-
It is so scandalous that he still gives us the
-
free will to choose to opt out. He still gives
-
us the free will choice to not step forward.
-
But I tell you he's here. He's here.
-
If you don't know what that's like. If you don't
-
know why this crazy guy's up here shouting see, because
-
there was a time where I did not actually believe
-
that there would be.
-
Anything worth listening to. But I don't care about that anymore.
-
I only care about what pleases him.
-
Do you understand me? And that's you today. God's calling
-
you up, God's calling you forward. Will you eat anize
-
the earth again? Will you continue to eat anize the
-
world more powerful than you have ever done in your life?
-
Those that are doing even right now? There is more?
-
Do you know that there's more? Do you know that
-
there's more? There is a new song. There's a new
-
song that's being sung.
-
Out of you.
-
There are rivers of living water that are bursting removing
-
all of the junk out of the way. I want
-
to invite you guys into this because I feel like
-
a lot of you are receiving the invitation.
-
You can stay right where you're at.
-
And if you want somebody to pray with you up here,
-
and you say I want to receive that invitation, I
-
need the Destiny Team up here.
-
And if it's you, Destiny Team, just be transparent.
-
Before the Lord, please and just say that's me actually,
-
and just come and just take a knee up here.
-
Whatever you want, just come up here, Come up here,
-
come up here. Don't wait too long. God's calling you.
-
God's calling you. God's calling you. There's a call on
-
every life. There's a mandate for you, Father God. We
-
present ourselves before you, Lord, We present ourselves before you.
-
Lord. Way, Lord, have your way. Lord.
-
I'm praying for those that may not yet know that
-
they're missing You in their life, that the Holy Spirit
-
is missing God, or that they have been so cold
-
that they've been reduced to just appile.
-
Lord, that they don't know where to go forward from here. God,
-
I'm praying.
-
Right now that you would ignite, ignite the fire of
-
God in them.
-
God.
-
One's more, that they would know that they have and
-
serve a living God, that they can have their being
-
inside of you. Lord, that together we're edonizing this world
-
to continue to glorify your name.
-
Lord, be glorified, Holy Spirit. We thank you. Come Lord,
-
have your way in this house. Lord.
-
When your revival comes, we're gonna be ready. We're gonna
-
be ready. We're gonna be ready. We need your fire
-
continually burning God, not just going from individual to individual.
-
But corporately God. We love you, Lord. We love you, Lord.
-
We present ourselves before you today. We present ourselves before
-
you today.
-
God,
