Hi. This is Dave Olson.

I'm the senior leader of Hartman church located in Ankeny Iowa.

I hope the following message, challenges and courage's and

ultimately changes you. Thanks for joining us.

I, It's kind of a love-hate relationship, when you come into

a place where the heavens are so open, because you get so many

downloads. And and then you realize your

notes just go right out the window.

And who cares. Anyway, right?

I'm just going to talk with you from my heart and I think that's

probably the better thing to do. and, You know, April 7th woke

up. Out of a dream that I had.

And this dream, I was, I was singing the song.

This wonderful old song that Dottie Rambo wrote called Holy

Spirit, Thou Art, welcome in this place and I was just

singing in this dream and singing and singing it and it

got stronger and stronger, and stronger, until the song picked

me up and propelled me into a service.

I don't know where that was, but I was in this service and I the

whole place was just singing in the same song, Holy Spirit, that

would welcome in this place and there was nobody on the

platform. It was not platform lead.

It was just the presence of Holy Spirit, just coming down in this

place. And everyone there was caught up

in in their hearts to meet with him and and all of a sudden

Miracles, just begin to happen if you were ever had the

privilege of being and Kathryn kuhlman's meetings.

Many many was the time that she would just she'd come to a place

in the service where she would just sit down either on the

steps or on a, on a, on a chair. And say, I have nothing to do

with this anymore. It's all his, and of course, she

did have everything to do with the service but she would always

use that disclaimer and, and then in these, these spontaneous

Miracles would just begin flowing.

And And she would never let go of each Miracle until she was

sure that it was documented, in sure, that it was actually true.

And I so appreciate that about Catherine and the Integrity that

she ministered in was just it was magnificent really.

And and so it was like that in this service and and in the Holy

Spirit is just moving, and moving, just like just brooding

really over the service and, and bringing forth these wonderful,

wonderful healings and then it went from And in all manner of

healings were taking place from from amputees.

Having their limbs restored but it wasn't, they didn't grow out.

They just appeared. They just bang.

They were there. They were just restored

immediately. And, and, and is just these

unusual manifestations that were taking place.

And, and I was just caught up in this and just in so enjoying and

then and then it moved from physical healings to emotional.

Trauma, you know, there's a lot of people that are walking.

A wounded that that are that they have emotional trauma in

their lives and grief in their lives.

And there's, there's some folks in Ames this morning.

They've got some grief in their lives.

In the good news is that he's come to heal the brokenhearted

and and I and he was just flowing.

And it was I was just so aware and then it moved from emotional

trauma to mental disorders. And and, and people with Autism

were being healed and all manner of things were Taking place and

it was just so strong and it was so and it just kept building and

building and I, and I was singing and singing, Then I,

then I woke myself up singing this song.

And the presence of the Lord was in our bedroom and it was so

beautiful. He is so beautiful.

And I in faith, she's been challenged with some hip

problems and so I put my hand on her hip and I was just praying

in the Holy Ghost and then she woke up and what are you doing?

And and so I told her the dream and we began to pray together

and and we prayed and we prayed until she went back to sleep and

I couldn't go to sleep. I just got up and and when I

woke myself up, it was 444 in the morning. and I glanced at

the clock on there and 444 in the morning and This morning,

the Lord woke my wife up at 444 in the morning, and I just got

this feeling that we've got our toes hanging over the edge of a

threshold. I think you better get buckled

up. Praise God.

You know, get get your helmet on and I ride motorcycles, and, and

it's sometimes it's just time to put your helmet on and, and,

and, and, and, and strap it on and get ready to go.

Because I believe with all my heart, that God is going to

release This wonderful flow of healing once again in a

magnanimous way, in a big way that nobody can attach their

name to. And, and he's just going to come

And and do these kinds of things and we need to, we need to be

prepared and so in preparation. The Lord put this word in my

heart, I want to share with you if I may and if you've got your

Bibles of whether and I've given up with the with the paper and

leather, you know, trying to demand that people bring their

Bibles to church. Well, you've got your Bibles.

Whether it's electronic, I don't care if you know, get an app

that I can hear the pages turning or something.

And I like the sound of the pages of the Bible turning and

things like that. I'm guess I'm just old school

but if you've got your Bibles turn with me to Psalms 102 and I

don't think that this is just a sermon.

I do think that this is a word that that is being released in

my heart and in my spirit and and I'm going to depend on Holy

Spirit for the release. Of this word.

And I'm probably going to be struggling.

I got cataract surgery last year and so I'm in between these

things of readers. And reading and I don't know,

it's crazy. but I want to pick it up in verse, Well, before I

do that. This Psalm is a prayer.

Of The Afflicted, when The Afflicted is overwhelmed.

And and the psalmist begins to pour out this this incredible

pressure on the heart of a cry that comes forth and and the

psalmist like most of us. Do we were overwhelmed we begin

to pour our complaint out to the Lord.

He do you guys do that and I found out a long long time ago

it doesn't make him nervous. To hear my complaints and he's

patient to hear them by the way, and, and he's kind and he waits

till we pour it all out and then he begins to speak to us.

And so the psalmist, pours, the complain out and pours the

problems out. So that, that it's plain before

the Lord, and plane out of their heart and then begins to

prophesy. Out of out of their complaint.

They've lifted their eyes up high enough, you know, we begin

pouring our complaints out and then we begin lifting our eyes

up because we need an answer to the complaint and the only

answer that we're going to gets from him.

And the fact of the matter is is he is the answer, right?

I mean a lot of times we're looking for answers that he can

pull out of his pocket and hand to us and we think that that

would satisfy us but that's really not what his answer is.

His answer is that he just Was up.

He just comes in a makes his presence known and and so this

prophetic word comes and it says in verse 13, it says speaking

speaking to the Lord you will arise and have mercy on Zion.

In the scriptures, Zion speaks of the people of his presence.

You will arise in have mercy on Zion for the time to favor her

her. Yes the set time has come for

your servants, take pleasure in her stones and show favor to her

dust. So the nation shall fear the

name of the Lord and all the kings of the earth, your glory

for the Lord shall build up Zion.

He shall appear in his glory and here's what he does.

When he appears in his glory, he shall regard the prayer of the

destitute and not despise Prayer.

And this will be written for the generation to come that a people

yet to be created, May praise the Lord, that's us for.

He looked down from the height of his Sanctuary from Heaven,

the Lord view the Earth, you know, in Psalms 113.

It says, there's that scripture there that says, he humbles

himself to look down into heaven, Do you do realize, don't

you that that that eternity is inside of him?

An inside of him is, is eternity and inside of that is heaven.

And inside of inside of that is the cosmos.

And inside of that is is humanity.

And inside of an inside of humanity, he created us for his

glory to be placed in invested on the inside of our being.

He put eternity in our hearts. That's what the scripture says.

And so he looks down into his heart into eternity.

Into the cosmos. From the very highest expression

of his being. He's looking for this.

To hear the groaning of the prisoner.

To release those appointed to death and to declare the name of

the Lord in Zion and his praise in Jerusalem.

And When God says, when the scripture, say he declares his

name, what he's doing is he's opening up the Veil.

Of his heart. And and when he says I'm, he's

going to declare his name. He opens the veil up so that we

can see his character and his nature.

Because name in scripture is synonymous or equal to Nature

character. Right?

And so so God says you, you might think you might know who

you think I am. But let me tell you who I really

am. I've come to hear the groaning

of the prisoners. I've come to release them.

I've come because I am savior. It's not just an action that he

did. That's who he is.

That's his character. That's his nature.

And out of his nature. He pours out all the elements of

who he is and we're just beginning to discover who he is.

We think we know. Yeah, I remember I was Junior

and Bible College in dear Lord, I knew everything.

And if you didn't believe me, I would tell you, I know

everything. And then God came.

And I've begun realizing ever since and that's it's almost

depressing but I've lived on the planet for seven decades. and I

realized, I don't know anything. And I've never been so at peace.

And I've Never Been So Satisfied.

As to know nothing as I ought to know.

And the longer I walk with him. And the more that he Reveals His

nature to me the more I realized dear God, hey I really don't

know you, you know, Paul at the end of his life he wrote in in,

he wrote and he wrote this letter and he says I want to

know him at the end at the end of his ministry.

He's writing a letter says, I really want to know him.

What's wrong, Paul? Aren't you morning?

Yes, I'm course. I'm born.

Again, I want to know him. I want to know him.

I want to know him, I want him to speak.

I want him to reveal. I want him to pull back that

Veil so that I can see him. Evermore.

See, him years ago, I was in, I was in was in Korea and God

opened up this really strange door to me and and this door was

he opened up. It's a long long detail story

but I'm going to I'm going to cut it really short.

My wife will be proud of me because I love the details and

you know we've almost got a role reversal thing going on between

us because she likes to cut to the Chase and I like the detail.

It's just, I don't know, it's the feminine side of me.

I guess I don't know and and And we got confused somewhere along

the way and I get the details and she gets cut to the Chase.

And anyway, I'll cut to the chase.

The door opened up through a wonderful healing of a lady in

Korea in Seoul and she had stage 4 stomach cancer and she had

about a tumor that made her look like she was six, seven months

pregnant and and I was teaching in a mission school and I

invited her to come there because I had known her

previously in our. Should we?

She we pastored in Hawaii. This is all jumbled up, isn't

it? We pastored in Hawaii.

She was in our church and Why? And then she was back in Korea

to get treated for this stage for stomach cancer.

And so, I heard that she was there and I invited her to come

to the meeting. And I told her I said Mina, who

knows what God will do. He he can do anything, come to

the service and and maybe maybe something beautiful will happen

to your body. And so she, she came and she

came in and she was emaciated. Looking her eyes were sunken and

dark. You've probably seen the Or

known someone that was challenged with these kind of

things and and and she sat down gingerly in her chair and and I

was teaching. And right now I don't remember

what I was teaching but I do remember this that in the middle

of a sentence, the anointing changed from a teaching

anointing to Healing anointing. And I just stopped in the middle

of the sentence with my mouth open.

And I looked at her as a mean to come here.

I think God wants to touch you, and she got in.

She got about 8 feet away from me and out into the power of

God. She goes onto the floor, and,

and she's crying. And then she's laughing, and

she's crying, and she's laughing, and she's in speaking

in Korean and speaking in English, and then speaking in

tongues, and then just crying and laughing, and she was a

mess. And we all gathered around a

course class was over now, because now it's Audio Visual.

And the real teachers there. And, and she's there on the, on

the floor. And she starts laughing with

this deep, deep belly laugh, and then she starts hitting her

stomach. I'm Healed.

I'm Healed, I'm Healed. And then she said, and we stood

there, and we watched, we watched her stomach, go down to

normal and and Has she got up off the floor and her face was

like these lights that are in my eyes.

She was beaming and she danced all over the place and she ran

and she danced and she didn't know what to do with herself.

And all the rest of the class, didn't know what to do with

themselves either. So they danced and they ran.

And it was wonderful, and I didn't have to teach anymore.

Because, Holy Ghost was teaching and she came back the next day

and and their face was so beautiful, no Darkness around

her eyes. Her face was filled out,

beautiful. There was just she looked the

picture of health and she said to me, listen you and I'm going

to skip a bunch of details and go to what she said to me a

little bit later on, she says, listen, you're going to get a

telephone call, please just say yes.

And I said, okay. I'll do it and I got a call from

a professor in a university. And he said that he was the the

chair or the professor of the department he was at from pusan,

National universities. This secular University, he

says, I'm the chair of the Department of cultural content

and development. What is that?

That's what I thought. I didn't say it, but I thought

it And he says it's a new department and he said I didn't

have a says I'm a Christian and it's a new department and I

didn't I didn't have any curriculum and I called the

president and said, what is this a joke?

And he said no, he says you need to write your own curriculum.

You're a doctor. And and so he says, I prayed

about it and asked the Lord, what he wanted to do with the

Department of cultural content development.

In the Lord said to me, I want to bring the culture of the

Kingdom of Heaven into the university cultural system.

And so he said, would you please come and speak to us for two

days? Two hours a day on the culture

of the kingdom of heaven and I said, oh yeah, I'll I'll do

that. I'll do that.

And and and so I went there and I was scared spitless mean my

mouth was dry. Because I respect education, I

do and I love education. It's wonderful.

And and in fact, I'm educated far beyond my intelligence and

and it's just the reality. And but I was I so honored these

perfect and in then he says, oh by the way, you're not talking

to my students, you're talking to the professors of the

University. No pressure.

And so, I went there and I was, it was on a Monday night, I was

in my hotel room. I mean, they put me on this

train. So the bullet trains,

Hallelujah, 220 miles, an hour. I love speed and and, and

blasted down to pusan. It's on the southern tip of the

peninsula of Korea and I'll just butchered my notes today.

So I'm just going to keep going and And we got down there and I

was it was on Monday night. I was supposed to start speaking

on Tuesday morning at 10:00 and I didn't know what I was going

to tell them. God likes that, I don't. and so,

I prayed and I walked and I laid down and I lay down my back and

prayed, and I got on my face and prayed, and I got on my knees

and prayed, and I walked outside and prayed and I, and I wrung my

hands and I prayed and I and finally, the Lord spoke to me,

and he said, Son, you can only give them what you have.

You cannot give them what you don't have.

And peace came. And so I opened up my Bible at

ten o'clock the next morning in a conference room with 14.

Professors and and and I begin to speak to them about the

culture of the Kingdom of Heaven, out of Exodus chapter 33

Exodus 33 · chapter mention

where God said to Moses. I'm going to send you into the

land. I'm going to give you everything

that I wanted to give you and that I told you that I would

give you but I'm not going. I'm going to send an angel with

you and Moses is. Whoa, back the truck up.

I don't know an angel, but I do know you and I'm not going

without you. I didn't start this.

You started it. And here's this amazing

interaction between the heart of Moses in the heart of God.

And I'm, and I'm releasing this word to the to these professors,

and they're crying. And the in my translator,

Professor Kim. And there's a million Kim's in

Korea and Professor Kim, he would stop me.

And he would say, just a moment, just a moment.

And then he would burst into tears and he would cry and cry,

and cry, and cry and cry, and then he would compose

themselves. Okay, we can go now and, and it

was that kind of a dynamic happening in this.

Room of professors University professors and and God was

there. And and and it was beautiful.

And I structured it as I was going along so that I could

start the next day. Wednesday morning at 10:00 with

the statement of Moses prayer. Show Me Your Glory.

And that would be my opening statement for the second day.

And and so we went and finished at 12 noon and And, and, and

then Professor Kim says, okay, this is wonderful.

You finished just like a professor use finished on time.

And, and I said, okay, Hallelujah.

And and then, and then the second day, I started and, and I

read my texts, Show Me Your Glory.

And this, this woman Professor raises her hand.

And I stopped. And I said, yes.

And she says, excuse me. She says, is this lecture only

or can we ask questions? And God stuck a finger in my

brain and I went stupid for a moment. and I said to this

University Professor from a secular University, oh sure, ask

any question you want and then I realized what I said and I

looked into the woman's eyes and her eyes are gleaming.

And I realized that this woman is stronger than 40 acres of

garlic. And she said, I understand by

your lecture yesterday that God allows debate in his kingdom.

And I love debate she said because it's one of the finest

forms of education and she's right.

It's true. And Out of Heaven, comes this

answer that bypassed my brain. Jumped into my heart and somehow

came out of my mouth. And I said to her, yes, he does

allow debate in his kingdom but you must understand that Moses

debated, God not on the basis of his intelligence, but on the

basis of God's integrity and I'd never heard that before.

And she looked at me like I, she didn't know and her mouth fell

open and tears, begin jumping out of her eyes.

Running down her face. She puts her head on the

conference table and she says, my God my God I missed it by

light years. I think we miss it by light

years. when we think that we know anything, About him.

And I think that God is intending on purpose.

He's designed it to happen this way that he wants us to stop

thinking about him and start thinking with him.

And I have the mind of Christ activated on the inside of us.

I mean, if you're wearing a wrist band, this will date me a

little bit, but it really doesn't date me.

Because I go much further back than this if we're wearing on

our wrist band, a wwjd, what would Jesus do?

And we're in a situation and we look down at our wristband.

Why would Jesus do? What would you what would Jesus?

We've already missed it. He's moving faster than the

speed of light. Did you did you know, back in

1996 what further further, further back, did you ever heard

of this guy by the name of Albert?

Einstein he I didn't know him. By the way, about Peta.

Hold But he did die. After I was born, But he States

in his research and he couldn't quantify what he saw, but he saw

something and what he saw was he termed it scary fast, scary fast

but he didn't have the technology to quantify what he

saw. And he didn't quite have the

understanding to put it together to put it into words into and

actually find out and discover what he was seeing.

But he But in so he didn't have any other words, so he says,

it's so I see something scary fastest what he said.

In 1990s, they discovered what he saw.

And what they discovered was the way the kingdom of God is

operates. What they discovered was is if

you take a particle that's negatively charged and you take

a particle that's positively charged and you bring them

together and this is now the words of science.

Now they're beginning to discover the kingdom a little

bit by little bit and and they're saying that when you

bring these two particles together and they they Come

entangled until a state of intimacy is achieved.

And then you separate them and you put one particle in Los

Angeles and you put the other particle in Boston.

When one moves, the other one reacts.

And the slowest speed, that it reacts is 10,000 times.

The speed of light. That's called Oneness.

And Jesus prayed that we would be one with the father even as

he is one with the father and that we would be one with each

other even as they are in us and we are in them and we are there

and we achieve a state of intimacy to wear when he moves

we move. When we, when he speaks we

speak. This is what Jesus.

This is what Jesus meant. When he said he says look guys.

I can't do anything. Jesus, I can't do anything.

I can only do what I see. The father do. later on he says

I only say I only judge I only say what I hear the father say

You imagine a guy like that looking for a job as a pastor,

in a church. And he's being interviewed by

the church, pastoral search committee.

Jesus beings interview. Well, you know, tell us tell us

what your programs are. I can't do anything.

I can't do anything guys. Can't do anything.

No. No I can't I can't do anything.

What can you give us a copy of your sermons?

Well I only I only say What I Hear My Father say, I don't have

any. I just only I only do what I see

him do. And I only say I don't think

that they're going to keep him around for very long.

I Think Jesus would be turned away as a Shepherd in modern-day

Church in Western culture. and I think, That God is shaking us up

more and more and more and more and more, and more and more.

Until we become so dependent on him.

That We crave and we long for the Fulfillment of the answer of

his prayer. Father, I pray that they are one

with me as I am with you. And then you are with me and

then we're in you and you are in us and we're all become this

conglomerate, Oneness Beyond, Unity, Beyond agreement.

So at one that were looking at each other and knowing together,

this is what he's doing and so this prayer this prophetic word.

He says, you will arise in have mercy on Zion for the time to

favor her. Yes, the set time has come And

Hebrew. You've got a whole bunch of

words for time, but there's three primary words.

One is ADD and add is is time from from time, beginning to

time ending its time in in in continuity it's all time, it's

everything. And then inside of that inside

of that, you've got, could you throw me that water bottle,

honey? It's at your feet.

Thank you, Dave. Then you've got inside of, add

it. And at is is now time.

And now time can be a moment or it can be a season.

And it can be from a moment to like a year or more, but it's a,

this this, this, this section. It's a specific section of time

inside of the time. Continuum.

And then, inside of it, you've got Mo made and mo Wade, mode

is, is it's a set time. It's like an appointment, you

have an appointment to be at a certain place.

At a certain time to meet a certain person.

And they're coming there for a pre disposed objective.

This is a really special thing. This moment because mo8 is

what's applied to like the feasts and the offerings in the

old Covenant. And and in fact, today is the

day of Pentecost, isn't it? We're celebrating the day of

Pentecost and and so, we're in a moment literally.

And I think that we're in a moment spiritually.

And I think that God is calling us together at a right time in

the right place, that's already predetermined for Covenant to

come into existence and to be expressed and for something to

take place in this moment season.

Now, there's ammo Wade for a woman to conceive.

And there's a moment for a woman to deliver.

There's a mowing for a prophetic word to be given and then

there's a MOAB for a prophetic word to, to be fulfilled.

And what happens in between these, bookend appointments for

one to be conception to take place, or to, or to be, or to be

a prophetic word, to be released, and given utterance

and released into the atmosphere.

So that, that something is Triggered for that to take

place. And for, then, for it to be

fulfilled later on, there's this space in between these, these

two Mo, eight appointments. And what happens between these

two modes? Appointments is really, really,

really, really really, really, really, really important.

Because what needs to take place in this in this tooth bookends?

Is preparation maturity development and that comes

through activated prayer. and and here in the scripture and in

verse 13, He says for the time at To favor, Zion.

Yes. The mo Aid the set time has come

And so what he is saying is he says look guys something has

happened here. There is there's something that

has been prophetically released already, it's in the atmosphere,

it's working and it's functioning and and and God has

brought development development preparation maturity and now he

says, and now it's time to be fulfilled.

Now, everybody and their dog wants a prophetic word to be

given to them. But if we were really, really,

really sharp. We would gravitate to the ways

of the kingdom of God. And understand that once that

prophetic word has been released, we have a part to play

in it now because it's been conceived in our hearing, it's

conceived in our heart. It's conceived in the

congregation. It's conceived in a Ministry.

It's been released and it's in, it's going, it's moving now.

Things are happening. Even though you cannot see it.

It's happening. It's in that unseen dimension.

And the Lord wants us to wake up to the degree that we can begin

to see the invisible and here the inaudible so that we can do

the impossible. And so, when he releases that

prophetic word in our hearts and our lives, we have to understand

that with that. That's when the time the time

clock is ticking now, honey. It's, it's, it's moving.

When a woman conceives, it's just a matter of time, things

are going to change her diets. Going to change.

The way, the way she walks is going to change, we were

pastoring in Hawaii. Oh, I'm sorry.

I just got the - I just got the vote of no confidence.

I can't tell you this story. But there have been women. that

have said to their husbands, Stay there.

Stay there. Do I do.

Do I walk. Like, I'm pregnant.

In any husband with half a molecule of the mind of Christ.

Understands that that's called a man trap.

These are questions. You do not answer.

These are questions where you begin prophesying, honey, you

look beautiful just like you are so make it okay.

Okay, here's the deal. You have been impregnated as a

congregation. You're carrying multiple

prophetic words. This congregation you.

You're not just going to have one baby, you're going to have

multiple children. And they're on their way. and

there have been times that you have felt like your clothes

didn't fit you and they don't You need to change your garment.

in the fashion world, there's this curious size of garments,

it's pretty kind of strange, really It's got on the tag.

It doesn't have S4 small or medium for medium or large or

extra large or extra extra large on it.

This, this particular size of clothing, says one size, fits

all It's really strange. in the realm of the spirit, we've got a

garment that's one-size-fits-all and it's called the Garment of

Praise What Pastor was saying this morning is extremely

accurate and extremely important that when we move into that

dimension of high praises, and let me tell you something,

there's, there's there's Dimensions up there that we have

not tapped into yet. There's Dimensions up there that

when we tap into those things, it triggers the Fulfillment of

the monad that's been prophesied.

And when we move into that Dimension, Everything Changes.

And you put that Garment of Praise on and what has been

prophetically released into the world into a city, or into a

region, into a city into a congregation and into individual

Hearts. When those prophetic words have

been released, and they take, The devil is going to do

everything that he can do to abort that.

He's going to try to get your eyes everywhere except where it

should be. He's going to try to a draw,

your attention everywhere, where it shouldn't be.

And you must understand that we have an integral part in.

When God releases prophetic words between then, and when

they're fulfilled, And then after, I'm not even going to go

into that today because I've only got seven more minutes, but

here's the deal. We've got to get this.

And Kenny Iowa depends on this. The Des Moines region depends on

this. The state of Iowa depends on

this and the nation of the United States of America.

Depends on what we do. With the prophetic words, that

God gives to us, I'm telling you.

You are far more important than you think you are.

You're far more important than you think you are.

Far more. And when we get this, something

is going to take place and, and in time is going to change.

And our development is going to change and we're going to begin

to eat different. We're going to begin to walk

differently, we're going to begin to dress differently.

Why? Because there's a baby that's

coming. There's the Fulfillment of a

prophetic word. That's going to come to pass.

And we can expedite this thing. With the garments that were

wearing and the praise that were that we're involved with and the

prayer, the intercessory prayer that we go into that dimension

of of groaning and joining the whole world with the prayer that

says, Lord, they want to, they want to see your son's.

They want to see your daughter's then want to see the real deal.

They've seen the thing that's not real and they're tired of

it, and they don't want a part of it. what they want is they

want to see the real thing, and when we tagged into this, I'm

telling you you're going to look different, you're going to talk

different, you're going to walk different, you're going to dress

different because you're going to realize what you're carrying.

I'll finish with this. It's okay.

Honey. If I talk about diamonds, that's

okay. Okay. normally, she's not with

me, but I liked it better when she's with me.

For years and years and years. We lived from hand to mouth.

What kind of still do. But, but we really did before

and I had always wanted to buy my wife things that I could

never afford. No way.

Could I fought it. And one day, this person came up

to me and gave to me and offering And put it in my hand

and it was a large offering. and, and And they held their

hand over my hand. And I said to them, thank you.

And they wouldn't let me go. They said, Bill, I know you.

Okay. I'm not letting go of this,

because you need to understand what this offering is for.

Okay. I know you.

So I need to tell you what this is for.

This is for you and Faith. This is not for Missions.

Bold letters, underlined highlighted.

This is not for Missions. This is not for church

offerings. This is not for sowing into

somebody else. This is for you and this is for

Fay. Do you understand me?

They weren't going to let go. Until I said yes.

And then they said to me snared by the words of your mouth.

It's a scripture. And so, I received this offering

and I thought about some things that I wanted to give my wife

and we have a, we have a friend, he's a wonderful man of God.

He is, he was in our first church that we pastured on the

island of Maui and Hawaii. And and his name is John and I

called him up and I said, John, I've always wanted to buy Faye a

diamond pendant. Would you help me?

I don't want to just buy something that somebody else has

created. Would you create this for me?

Because he didn't just buy and sell jewelry?

He was an artist and he created jewelry.

And so he and he was good, my goodness, he's retired now.

But he was really good. And I said, so John.

Here's what I'm thinking. And so I described to him what I

wanted three diamonds, I didn't care the size of the diamonds, I

cared the quality of the diamond, and I said, and I said,

I want you to make it and he did it, he made, And he called me up

and he says, it's done, he sent me a picture and I said, oh my

that's exactly like what I was seeing in my mind.

He says this is it bill. It's beautiful.

I said yeah. It is he says do you have a

chain that would match this gold?

And I said no I don't he says I do.

I will sell it to you for my cost.

And oh, by the way, guys, there's a huge.

There's a huge thing. Jack, the prices up in jewelry,

I'm telling you is a huge markup.

Are there any Jewelers in here? I'm sorry.

I didn't even think to ask that before I get myself into trouble

like that. And and so he I said, okay, fine

and he says, I'm going to send this to you and then I'll send

you the I'll send you the invoice.

It's okay. He sends me the pendant and he

sends me that chain. And then he sends me to invoices

one for the pendant and one for the chain.

I don't know why he didn't put them together.

And so I don't know about anybody else.

But I know my desk and my desk is messy and I read an article

one time that said, that messy desks are for extremely

organized. People an extremely organized

Minds. I read it is Real.

It was a real article. They did a study actually, did a

study on it. It's probably somebody that, you

know, got a grant because they had a messy desk.

And so I took these two invoices and I put them in my messy desk

in drawers separate from each other.

This is a key bit of information, by the way, And so,

then I waited for a nondescript day, not a birthday, not a

holiday, not a special day, not any kind of a special day at

all. I waited for the dullest Dulles,

Dulles possible day. I could find to give her this

diamond pendant because this was about her, it wasn't about

celebrating. Anything else, it was about

celebrating her Come on ladies. I thought I'd get an amen and

amen from the ladies in the house.

It's genius, isn't it? Okay, good.

And so, I went up to her and I said to her, okay, I've got a

gift for you. What is it?

I said, close your eyes flying. This is this is pink and blue.

The pink and blue. Always do this kind of dynamic.

I've got a gift, what is it? Close your eyes, why?

Because I want to give you the gift.

Well what is it? And a, close your eyes?

Right? And it's this dance, you know,

this delicate dance and finally get her to close her eyes.

And I said, hold your hair up and I got behind or not.

Put fastened this pendant on it right in front of a big mirror.

And I said, okay, now you can open your eyes and she opens her

eyes up and oh, she's looking at the mirror and looking at this

pinned and, you know, and it's just perfect.

It's just right. Just below the, the bottom of

the neck. It's just, it's perfect.

It's part, it's beautiful, and the lights gleaming on it and of

the colors are going and Three days later.

She's getting dressed, I go into the area where she's dressing

men, do these things and and she standing in front of the mirror,

she's already got the pendant on and so I come up behind her and

I put my arms around her and I kissed you on the back of her

neck and I said, honey, will you do, please do me a favor.

She says, what's that I said? And I'm looking at her in the

mirror and she's looking back at me in the mirror.

I said, would you please be careful about this piece of

jewelry because I cannot replace this and when I said that she

rolled her eyes, And I said, why did you roll your eyes?

I didn't. Yes, you did.

No, I didn't. Yes, you did.

I saw you roll your eyes. I didn't roll my eyes.

Yes, you did. I saw you pink and blue, right?

and she then said to me will bill, you know, and I know that

these are only cz's. There's not real diamonds.

Because we can't afford real diamonds.

Yeah, I know that's what I tell ya and I said, you really think

that. And she said, yes.

Pull my phone out. Call my friend, John Cougar and

Maui. It's 10:00 in the morning in

Texas. Five o'clock in the morning in

Hawaii. He's my friend.

John. Yeah.

Bill, it's 5:00 in the morning. What are you calling 5:00 in the

morning? I said, John can you do me a

favor? Yes, of course I've done.

It's 5:00 in the morning Bill. I said, John, could you please

tell Faye how much this pendant cost really Bill?

Really? Yeah, really, please.

John, she doesn't believe that it's real.

And so I put the phone up to her ear and John says Fay.

Yeah, the pendant is real. The diamonds are real. and then

I take the phone away, and I said, John thank you so much and

in the meantime she standing in front of the mirror and she does

this Hmm. Shoulders.

Go back. Chest comes out.

Every man's dream. When she has that pendant on,

she walks different. She stands differently and she

doesn't even think about it. But I do and I see she even

walked different. Because now she understood the

value of what she was carrying. We don't get what we're

carrying. We don't understand the value of

what we are carrying, what we are carrying changes Heaven and

Earth. What we're carrying changes

individual lives. It changes marriages, it changes

families, it changes neighborhoods, it changes

cities, it changes regions, it changes States.

It changes Nations, and it changes a generation.

And that's only one person carrying that And when a whole

congregation carries that when the whole family of God wakes up

to the reality of who we are carrying in our generation,

we're going to walk different. We're going to stand different.

We're going to have our shoulders back and we're going

to realize the authority that we wield.

And we're going to bring to bear what's inside of his heart,

which is to advance the kingdom of heaven.

First in Earth. This Earth.

And then on Earth. Because we have to be carriers

first. And we must recognize the value.

And so God says I'm going to declare who I am to you.

And you're going to discover what you're carrying on the

inside of your heart. We're going to listen to people

differently. We're going to hear their

groans. We're going to see them through

the lenses of Holy Spirit and we're going to see who they

actually are not who they think they are.

And we are going to declare the name of the Lord in our

generation, wherever our Pulpit is my Pulpit.

Just happens to be here today. Your Pulpit is your job where

you go to tomorrow. And when you go into that job,

you got to understand that's your pulpit.

And the pulpit that God's given to you is so that you can pull

back your heart and you can let the nature of Christ come

through you to every single person that you meet and that's

how the Kingdom of Heaven comes into Earth through you.

Heartland Church. You have you have Mo made of

prophetic words, release to you, and now there's coming a mo Aid

of the Fulfillment of the promises that God has purposed

in this house. And you have had good teaching

and you have good spiritual intelligence.

But I'm telling you even with the height of your good

spiritual intelligence, you do not yet know and understand the

value of who you are carrying. And God is going to bring forth

a revelation of Christ in this house.

That you have not yet enjoyed. It's coming.

It's coming. I release this by the word of

the lord. It's coming.

It's coming, it's coming. And when he releases this on the

inside of your hearts, You're going to be different, you're

going to walk different, you're going to hold yourself

differently because you understand the value of what you

are required and what you are privileged, because requirements

and privileges, always go together.

You cannot separate them responsibility privilege.

They're married. You have a responsibility to and

Kenny you have a privilege for Ankeny and that's to reveal the

Christ that's in you. That is the hope of glory not

only for you but for everybody that you meet Would you stand

with me? But father, I thank you for this

day. I thank you for this house.

I thank you for the leadership here.

I thank you for Pastor, Dave, and Pastor Kathy.

I think you for all the staff members and Heartland, I thank

you for the, the childcare workers that have been stretched

this morning by waiting on us. I thank you for the that which

you have put in their hearts to love our children.

And I thank you, Holy Spirit of what you're about to release in

this hour, in this house, in this people in this family.

And I'm asking you this morning, Lord, that you will take this

word and that you will seal it in our hearts and that you will

breathe on it in our hearts. And then you will bring us into

a dimension, where our eyes are open to see that you are a

rising even now You're changing your posture, you're changing

your position and you're moving from a place of ruling and

reigning and seated in your throne to rising up and

standing, and moving and exercising.

The Dominion of your throne in the earth.

In this hour, bring it forward, so that we can rise up to walk

with you. For that, which you have Arisen

to do, not only is it to do with what you're going to do.

It's to do to Mentor, us to see what we must do that.

We must arise that we must stand up and we must begin to walk in

the realm of your glory so that your presence will be advanced

in. Your kingdom will be advanced in

Iowa and in the heartlands of this United States.

And Lord, I'm asking you for you to change the atmosphere.

Here in this nation, I'm asking that you will change the

atmosphere of this nation and begin it in the heartlands.

Beginning in the heartlands, in the center of this nation change

the atmosphere of this nation and release your glory in this

nation. And Lord, we're asking you to

change the face of this nation and bring forth your kingdom.

That hears the groaning of the prisoners.

And here's the heart broken once, and the blind ones, and

the death ones, and those that seemingly have no hope Lord open

up our ears so that we hear what you hear.

And we see what you see that we might do what you do.

In our generation. I asked this father in The

Magnificent name of Jesus. In the Magnificent name of

Jesus, seal this word in our hearts.

And those who have not yet become impregnated, let it, let

it let it fertilize their hearts even now and let there be an

impregnation this hour. And opened the eyes of our

hearts that we might see you. I'm asking this father.

In Jesus name. In Jesus name.

I said to pasture and if, if you need to get your children,

please go get them and you can listen to this later.

I thank the pastor before I got up here, and I said to him, I

travel all over the world. but occasionally, I find a place

where I fit Can I think that I can speak for my wife and I this

morning that we fit with you guys and I love you and I thank

you for the privilege and the honor of coming into this house.

And and I, I have homes all over the world, but I don't pay the

taxes to them. And so if you will let me and my

wife hang around will hang around as long as you let us in

the future. And I'm going to be so bold as

to say that, I think maybe we belong to each other.

And maybe I just answered your question.
