Adjust Your Attention - Bro Jeremy Howell 5-18-2025

To Psalm chapter number twenty four. Man, direct your attention

to one through five.

Brother Nathaniel Acts, chapter number seventeen and verse number twenty eight.

Brother Jesse's Second Chronicles, chapter number fifteen and verse number two. Again,

remember sister gave von Grant. When you pray, she needs

the prayers desperate leader. Pray for dear sister Lauren as

she labors and travails bringing forth the birth of.

Her baby boy.

Pray for Sister Cheryl as she continues to recover. God

has been good to her. We're glad she's back in

the house of the Lord.

Brother Nathaniel Acts, Chapter number seventeen and verse number twenty eight.

Please my brother, for in him we live and move

and have our being as certain also of your own

poets have said, for we are also his offspring.

Now for someone that does not.

Read the Bible.

When you heard Brother Nathaniel read that part that said

concerning your own poets who spoke, did your mind immediately

think that he was speaking of Hebrew poets.

He's not. He's speaking of Greek poets.

Brother Jesse's Second Chronicles, Chapter number fifteen and verse number two.

Please, my brother, and he went out to meet Asa

and said up to him, here ye meet Asa, and

all Judah and Benjamin. The Lord is with you, while

ye be with him. And if you seek him, he

will be found of you. But if you forsake him,

he will forsake you.

Brother Jesse, did you just read to us that if

we seek Kim, he will.

Be found amongst us.

If we seek him, he will be found.

Amen.

Let's stand for the reading of our golden tape, Psalm

chapter number twenty four, Verses number one through five, a

psalm of David. The Bible says, the earth is the

Lord's and the fullness thereof the world, and they that

dwell therein, For he hath founded it upon the seas

and established it upon the floods. Who shall ascend into

the heal of the Lord, and who shall stand in

his holy place, He that hath clean hands and a

pure heart, who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity,

nor sworn deceitfully, he shall receive the blessing from the

Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

With that sermon that brother Aaron Wood preach to us.

This past Friday night in mind, let's look upon verse

number three, who shall ascend into the heal of the Lord,

or who shall stand in his holy place.

Brother Wood preached us a sermon title finding our place

beside Now. I feel like most of you found your

place during that time of revival, but it was evident

to us at the closure of those final services that

not everyone has. And the Holy Ghost has spoken into

my heart to make it clear to this people why

you're not finding your place beside the Lord, and to

encourage you to find your place, and to offer information

that will help you how to find.

Your place beside the Lord.

The sermon title was one that the Holy Ghost gave

me and is titled A just your attention. May we pray,

Heavenly Father, we love and we praise you. We thank

you for the opportunity to be in your house. I

thank you for this, precious people. I pray for an

annoying thing that comes from you, the Holy One. Annoying this,

thy servant, said a guard at my mouth, and help

me to say the things that.

You would have me to say, nothing of more or less.

And on the airs of this thy people, that they

might hear what the spirit of God says.

Or to the church this morning this Sunday morning, where

they're gathered together, let them hear of your word. I

pray these days would go below the shoulders, that they

would saturate the soul and the.

Spirit, not go in one ear and out to others.

I pray God that we would hear heed, and maybe

we depart this place joyfully and not sorrowfully in Jesus's name.

And the church said, Amen, as you're being seated, directing

your attention again to Psalm twenty four and verse number three.

It says, who shall ascend into the heel of the Lord?

For who shall stand in His holy place. Our text is.

Found in an Old Testament book of the Holy Bible,

the Book of Psalm.

This psalm has been a favorite of mind since the

days of my childhood. I'm sure you remember something about

the content of this chapter if you're a Bible reader

or a Bible student.

I first received.

Information on the content of this chapter in a Sunday

school class. On a Sunday morning in the Mulberry Church

of God. I remember a Sunday school teacher directing our

attention to the first few words of verse number one,

and those words are the earth is the Lord's and

the fullness thereof. It seemed like last night that God

began to point that out to me again, and these

words were lifted off of this page.

In other words, I.

Adjusted my attention once again, and I focused on that

fact that the earth is the Lord's and the fullness

thereof this earth does not belong to Satan. We will

remember the prayer that set God, have your all inclusive

will in earth.

As in heaven.

Brother Nathaniel, I've never forgotten the words of my Sunday

school teacher as they explained to me the same way

the Sweet Solist of Israel explained to the Israelites or

the Israelis we call them today, that the earth was

created by the Word himself. The earth was forced and

founded by the word of God.

Jesus Christ himself. And so the Sweet Soist of Israel felt.

Inspired to remind his.

Kinsmen and countrymen about the things that Moses had revealed

unto them.

He walked them back to the beginning of time.

He took them back to a time when their forefathers

received information concerning things that exist.

To this day. He took them back to.

The place of the days of creation.

I believe our little children in the elementary or the

primary Sunday school class here at Bethel recently heard their

lovely Sunday school teacher, Sister Hannah teach them on the

days of creation. Brother Micah, tonight we celebrate your K

five graduation, and from what I understand.

You have set the bar high for all of the

young people that are entering the school of learning.

All of my grandchildren have been challenged by the challenger

that walked to the standard or to the bar and

set it as high as anybody could sent it. I

thank God for a good example. I thank God for

standard bearers. I thank God for those that set the

standard high. My first born grandchild set the standard very high.

Moses early on he made it very clear things that

his forefather's knew so well, and it put it in right,

brother Nathaniel, and he told people about creation right off

the bat. David in this song reminds the Hebrew people

and the readers of the Sacred rit that the earth

is the lords. Since Jesus is the creator of the

cosmosa and of all creatures within every kingdom, that we

can conclude with this.

That all things belong.

To him, because he is creator of all things. Then

he is lord of heaven. Not only is he lord

of heaven.

He is lord of earth.

The apostle Paul.

Wrote these words about the Creator in his epistle to

the Church at Colossi and Colossians one of sixteen.

The apostle Palm made it clear with this statement. He said,

for by him we're.

All things created that are in heaven and that are

in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones or dominions,

were principalities, were powers. All things were created by him

and for him. He gave us the purpose for creation,

and the creatures within that creation, we are created for him.

It's clear for anyone to see that each author of

every book of the Bible, each author of.

The sixty six books, agreed.

That Jesus lessened in the beginning with God.

He was part of the triumph god Head. All of

these authors.

Tolis that Jesus this is the agent of creation. He

is creator and head over all things. If he is

head over all things, and he is, may we say,

because he is head over all things, and because of this,

everyone and everything is in his presence.

At all times.

But I want you to know those who were in

his presence at all times. Are not always in tune

with Him, and their attention is not always adjusted upon him.

I'm preaching a message tied over the adjust your attention.

I'm telling you what's wrong with the addict today.

They put their attention and their focus on something rather

than Jesus Christ and his words.

People are dangerously distracted.

Even in tire theories and seasons of revival, young people and.

Young adults and holiness churches can go without focusing their

attaching upon God. It is why they do not.

Find their place beside Him, even though a preacher comes

to the pool.

Pit or a priory lot of revival and makes her

clear to us that there is a.

Place by God that you can reach her and that

you can live and dwell in.

Why do they not get there? Why are they unable

to climber that mountain and acre on bed rock?

Why are they not building their house upon them rock himself?

Why are they losing.

Themselves emotionally, naturally, experiously?

Why or why or they lose in everything.

That God has given him under his watchful life.

In recent weeks, God has made it clear that he

is our father and that he desiyes.

For every being in this house and within his world,

within his.

House Cosmosa, to come to him. I want to remind

you of.

This scripture, the Bible straw nine unto God, and he

will draw nine unto you. Even though there's an element

of magnetism in the crosser and the Christ of that cross,

even though the spirit of God constrains, even though the

love of God compels, even though the goodness and the

grace of God trolls.

Why are not all being coming under him? It's because

their attention and their focus is not on him.

Because he said, if I be lifting up, he's not

asking somebody to recreaseiply, here must better. Samuel Stereto told

us nothing to do. Ever again, he's not desiring her.

That's somebody building on a cross, and they ask him

to the sin of heaven. They climbed up corn and

her and be executed again. He said, if I be

lifted up, But he was snipping up by his father.

He climbed up on that crosser one time, and one

sacrifice was enough. One death of righteous Hannah was enough

for all of humanity.

The problem to me of so we must look to live?

I said, you must look to live you must seek

up to find You're not seeking.

I said, you're not sneaking. You're not seeking up. You

are sneaking this Sunday morning. You know, I can't expect

a self God's people. In fact, you've already shouted for.

A while, as Sister Hannah saying that song, I'm a poor,

poor rich man. I do believe that our father owns

the cattle hanebio in hills, and I believe that we

are to inherit not a holy heaven, but.

The new Earth as his children. We are to be.

Join heirs with Jesus Christ, our elder brother. But not

everybody is looking for the brother. I'll tell you what

Moses was doing when he was climbing that mountain to

get in that rock. He was looking for the rock himself.

He was looking for Jesus. The reason why the rock

was following in the children of Israel in the wilderness,

it's because Moses was looking for the rock. It doesn't

matter if you're climbing a mountain or walking through a valley,

a crossing a sea, or rowing your pants up and tiptoeing.

Through a mirka.

The only way of rock he's going to follow you sir,

he said, if you're looking for it, I'll.

Tell you this.

There's a lot of things that could be visible if.

You would look for it.

I remember years ago as I was seeking the Holy ghost,

dear Brother, dear bel Nerd, and he approached.

Me while I was praying.

He said, seek him, only just search for him. He said,

young man, there are a lot of things that people

are overlooking without searching for it.

They are not looking for it, and they will never

see it. He said, I can tell.

You're in search for God. Well, I just read with God.

He's everywhere and all time.

He's an arm that present God. He's right here. He's

in the read with a pick at it.

He's in the room with a man in the bottom

of the ocean in a summer read.

He's been a person that's not care.

How the mood, wherever they are, God he is. But

for some reason, some scarily distinct. It's some forever close.

So I'm asking you.

This morning, but how we listen between you and God?

He's there a closeness. He's there a relationship between you

and God. I mean, for by Him all.

Things are they exist. It's in Him we live and

move and have our being. It's in the Lord that

we have our existence. It's in Him that I pull

there into my lungs by inhaling it. And that's here

the little while after. Without that, I would not have life.

God breathed into humanity. The breath of life, the very breath.

Oh God, is keeping you alive. People do not real lives.

The reason why they involuntary heal my soles of our

anetity are working her is.

Because her on the breath.

Of a life.

The fact that the heart is being, the fact that

the laws.

Are working, the fact that in.

Her organs are functioning with our orchestration.

It's because God send let it be.

But even though is a measure of grace, even though

there's a peasoner, they are a heart's gore knocking, there's.

Still sun that the same I feel, avoid what concise

for it in my heart. I want you to know

there's a special place where you got invited into. It's

called the soul a man time.

It's a god that the communist ruler or the dictator

is breathing right now.

It's a God.

And by his goodness and his grace that that terrorist

who's got fobstrapped to their body has a heart beating

that pops blood through the arteries and through the veins.

Oh, come on to that mascular system. It's God.

It's the Lord that worketh in you both to weed

on and the new of his good pleasure. The problem

is they don't want to do of his good pleasure.

Every person at some point they think him, I probably

should go to church.

I probably should treat my child different than I am.

I promise should become a better person.

Every person has something called a conscience, so it tells him.

This should not have tasted of that, this should not

have touched that, they should.

Not be took to that call this pressure, I'm telling him.

And that's why we can be said, did you not

walk up and down in the aisles of our church?

And Jesus saved to every person what he created. I

don't even know who you are. I'm asking you a

lesson right now. He's right there, He's right besides up,

Why does he not know who you are? About him?

We're all things created. It's clear for anyone to.

See that every author of each book of the Bible

was pointingless to Jesus as being head oover all things

amongst the church people on the island of Dominica. We

have a customer, and it's with a phrase that goes

like this. He is the head over all things. If

you ever visit there with us someday, Brother Jesse, be

sure in your testimony to include his headship and his lordship.

He is the head over all things, and everything is

under his feet.

Every person will become a confessor one day, but not

every person will be a possessor.

Always, come on, every niche.

Shallow, and every tongue that writs, whether it's the one

that curses God or blesses God, well it's the one

that curses man or bless his man. It will confess

that Jesus Christ was Lord.

Oh, come on now, but it will not.

Say I possessed him. Ask Lord, I'm asking you a question.

Why is it that you're confessing but do not possess him?

It's because you.

Are dangerously mistruking and you need to adjust to your attention.

What is your attention fixated upon? What is your mind

on right now? Is that your job? Is it? Your

financial situation? Is that the bills that are coming new.

I'm supposed to buy a flats boat tomorrow.

You know what.

I refused to look at them pictures this morning. I

refused to note upon that boat.

I refuse to give more than one minute's notice to

the man that said to meet me in South Bay

tomorrow and it's yours. Hey, how many of you know

you get what your paid for. But sometimes people overpay

for something.

I told you. My said, is that beautiful boat, but

I need to pay.

About seven thousand dollars less. I don't wish to lowball you,

I don't wish to insult you, but you think on that.

After two or three days, he got back to me

and he said, the boat is yours, if you want it.

He followed up with this, if you're willing to pay

one thousand dollars for I'll come off six thousand. I'll

meet you at a certain price. I said, consider it

pay for and considering mind, and you.

Get what you pay for.

You receive what's your sick I'm telling somebody, your Holy

GIRs has been telling you.

For a while. You want some mother in the god.

I stumbled into.

My son, I stumbled into my life in the kitchen.

I stumbled into the door at church. I stumbled into

my brother and sister at.

The gas station. I stumbled into my son yesterday at

the seven eleven.

But I want to tell you this, you will never

stumble up into the firstness God and his new brother.

Say her sister's half with him. Well, he wants you

a seek kid. Even there, he not the league the

focus of heretician. He was more than a gardener. He

was God. I'm telling you. Some of you look him,

must know he's a gardener. But he's God. I said

that he He's more than a gardener.

He's God.

Acts seventeen to twenty eight Apostle Paul speaking the Sun

who were acknowledging multiple gods. Brother Philip talked to us

about polytheistic views and polytheistic ways, how that all the

other gods that are in the Bible are plural in

nature and plural in pro plural in false existence, the

existence in the mind of people. But Elijah even told

those people concerning their purity of God.

He said these words, how long do you halt between

two opinions?

What he was saying to us, how long are you

gonna go with this unsettleness, this undetermined.

Mind set that you have? How long are you gonna

go from revival to revival, trying.

To decide whether to choose the ribus or Jesus, to

choose holiness of lordliness, to choose righteousness or unrighteousness.

Sir, how long are you gonna act like her? You're

seeking but not really seeking. I will tell you this,

the Bible center that can be true and every man

be alive.

That's including your statements that I'm seeking but I'm not finding.

Those is secret are kindness, I said, those that seek

or find the brother Nathaniel. It was like I could

feel it my spirit during the night. They're dangerously distracted.

Dangerously distracted. I don't need to go and listen to

another message the pastor preach with a similar title.

I don't need to go get another.

Sermon of antiquity from some great man of God.

I need to feel after him and I need to

find him.

That's what David the Sweet Somist was telling pilgrims as

they made their pilgrimages back to the.

House of God.

The songs of a sense that speaks of them as

sending up the mountain and making.

Their way to the Temple. As they made their way

to the Temple as pilgrims.

They begin with this lyric, The earth is the Lord's

and the foolness thereofs.

There will never be a person that tells Jesus you

were not there. That will never be a person that

will tell God you send your son. That will never

be a person that tells God you did not provide

an escape plan.

You see, I probably pay more attention to what was

preached by the young preachers of this churchyard more than.

Those street of Pipa I'm preaching to today. You're not

gonna file the Holy Ghost to in your cracker cabbet.

You're not gonna fine the Holy ghost in your polished cabnet.

Touch, You're not gonna fire the Holy Ghost to in your.

Workshop unless you you don't mean the need and you

humble yourself.

And truly is Chika after he so years ago I

was preaching here and I told this people when we

were but few.

In number less than twelve, probably, I said, Jesus will

show up in that larger room and he will meet

with you, because he's already there.

You just have to just your attention.

But a couple of services later, Sister Wood came into

the service and she said, while I was folding laundry

in my laundry room, the master showed up.

What was she saying by the road cap.

She was not saying of God that occupies her every matter,

every space.

In the cosmosa? Who walked you? How can he walk

in to himself?

God doesn't bump into himself. God doesn't have to shift

to get in the middle of wood and then shift

to get the burn of hand. What she was saying

is I focused my attention.

On him, and he was there, I said.

When Paul was.

Preaching in these people that had multiple gods, the pologistic mentalities,

he said.

Even your Greek poet said, and there he is a god.

Because it takes a poll to say.

It is heart, there is.

That's why I believe every atheist of the life, I

don't believe. There's what I guess that really speaks words

of truth. No lear in their heart have they ever

said there is no God. They've offended God, they've insulted God,

they've denied God. But when barn holds that little baby

boy in her arms, Lady, this evening or tonight or

perhaps in a little while, when she holds that little

one in her.

Arms, she's not gonna be foolish and say this just

happened into existence. It's not the procreation of Christian and

Lauren coming together. It is the creation of God. All

souls are belonged to God. I want you to know.

God is inserting a soul into that little baby, the

same way left Field gainst something inserting the first chip.

Into a PC. I'm telling somebody, why do you not focus.

You're a teaching upon God, and when you come to church,

A fellow Philip saying you're glad to be here, you'll

thank ple opportunity.

To be in God's face.

Sister, I was like, they thank God's running around from

this prayer request for that prayer request. That God's running

around from this deed to that name. God's not walking

into any accident. God's not driving into any sin. God's

not riding on just any old boat.

He is allwhere and all talis. This is why praise.

Should be continually in our mouth. He's not just in church.

I'll tell you I feel him as much in my

officer as I ever have a church. And what some

of you don't know, the gifts of God do not

only work or fox in the church house. I've been

in my office by myself and the Holy Ghost.

He move in tom truth.

And interpretation, and we right down what God Almighty said,

I'm telling you what I talk into history.

So he was, oh, that I not telling you God,

here's the creator. I'm off cosmos.

When Paul was speaking to the Greeks, he said this,

for in him we live and move and have our

been as certain also of your own poets have said,

for we also are his offspring. Come on, now, everybody

knows that the cosmos is not just happens. Thence everybody

knows there was a creator. Everybody knows that in your heart.

I'm telling you.

People can lie to themselves, they can lie with their tongue.

But since our childhood, most of us have heard that

God is everywhere at once. There is not a place

in the cosmos that is board of his presence of

the Godhead.

Even these United States of America.

When they sent a man to the moon, they wanted

the word of God to be read in space.

And that's cute. Some wonder if they really went there

or not.

I've seen the National program and i can tell you

it's not pretend. I've been up in the air and

I can tell you the creation of God. It's an

amazing thing. I've been several different places on the gloom

and admired.

The handiworker of what happened.

To be intelligent design. Oh come, now you're speaking us

Sunday morning, and I'm preaching to you. The reason why

so many are not having or move of God is

the pass they're avoiding in their own understanding. They're alloying

in your own amazination. So they're valing in their own opinion.

But he is God, God will be God, He will

always be God.

He's God.

Oh God.

Now he'll be God how he is. And now my

quest it is, so will you still be in his face?

The most horrifying thing about hell is that God willingly allows.

A chemistl.

Avoided in the beility of the earth to be absent

of His presence. Sister, would if I had to say,

what is your most horrifying thought.

That I've observed as her pastor as one's preached to

her for nearly eighteen to twenty.

Years, I would say, would be the thought of I'm

feeling his presence here.

That's the most horrifying thing about Hell.

It's just the how is the absence of his presence,

no gray, strongly, no.

Mercy, reagion, him not standing on outside of the door, knocking,

they saying, let me in.

It's fear of God, not bringing conviction.

It's a place totally void of love, full of hatred,

totally void of light, of our darkness, a place where

there's no love, deserned or detective, which is for the

absence of God. Do you really want to keep him outside?

Do you really want to leave him standing outside the door?

He will never be said that while you've lived in them,

while he was Creator, that he didn't stand outside the

heart's door. He said, behold, I'll stand at the door

and knocked. He's at the crack kids door right now.

He's at to evil Dictator's door.

Right now. He's at to evil Dictator's door. Right now.

He's been at your door for a while now.

Revival have to revival, had to revival. Brother Aaron Wood

he'd done, my brother Philip done this past week. He

called some names while I was preaching, and he said,

I don't understand what's happened.

Why are you not getting in that place that's beside him?

And Moses told him this. He's told the Creator the cosmos.

It's everywhere at every time, and omnipresent God.

He said, I won't go unless you go with me, sister.

How God was already present in Canaan. God was already

present in the wilderness. God's spirit was already there.

But what Moses was concerned about was God's spirit not

striving with men, and that God's spirit not going before him.

That was the concern of David. He said, until I

detect the sound of the gold Room. In the Talks

of the Mulberry.

Tree, David also said, even though I walk through the

valley of the Shadow of Death, I will fear no evil,

for thou wert with me. I mean, I thought, brother Philip.

God's everywhere at all times. There's not a space or

not a piece of matter that is.

Ford of his presence. David said this, if I was

to go to Hell, that art there. That's not talking

about the Lake of firefolks. That's not talking about the

Lake of firefolks. I feel holy goos right now, a

holy ghost, not some foul spirits you've been entertaining and playing.

I feel a holy ghost. Name comfort that right now.

Amen.

Not only did the Greek poets speak of a God.

The Hebrew people's poets, priests, prophets, and preachers all proclaim

the omnive presence of the Lord. Since our childhood, most

of us have heard that God is ever present.

It's a fact. The Lord isn't staying away from anyone

or anything. He isn't avoiding anyone or any situation. But

not everyone is feeling his presence even right now.

Some are in his presence, Some are feeling a spirit

the Holy Ghost is moving the post.

Some but not everyone is feeling his presence.

Not everyone has an awareness of his presence even right now.

That's Holy Ghost, conviction, and power settles down in this feeling.

The reason this is is because they don't have a

close relationship with the Lord.

Verse number twenty seven before verse number twenty eight of

Acts seventeen offers this insight that they should seek the

Lord if happily they might feel after him and find

him that we'd beaten up far from every one of

us just a little while ago.

I emphasize verse number twenty eight, for in him we

live and move and have our been all of that

kind of the offspring.

Of God, boring out the lords of God, born out

of the lords of God, but brother Jesse. The verse

prior explains that they should seek the Lord, not seek well,

not seek fame, not seek fortune, not seek a better opportunity.

Jesus said, seek me first, Seek the Lord first, and

all of these other things shall be added unto you,

because the truth is, we should be careful for nothing.

We should carefully.

Pray for everything that it be in a chorus with

God's will that we have it. I'm praying over that

silly flats boat. And I told him this morning briefly

not to waste his time.

On cardinal things. But I said, if it's not your will,

stop the deal.

I've prayed that before when sister hal and I were

about to buy houses that were halfway between Label and Mulberry.

One deal was sent and stone pretty much about to

happen the next day, and I told the Hawboll family,

I said it I'd have to take an active God

to stop this.

Do you know what happened? And active God happy and

the deal was stopped. You got your board to We're

gonna put the monkey on your back.

It is not on God.

It is not on your church. It's not on the preacher,

it's not on the advantageless. It's not on the sweet

Songst of Israel, Dave. But it's not on the Apostle Paul.

It's not on me, my Moses, the lowgiver.

It's on you.

I set us on you.

If you're a secret of.

Trink, you will find it.

If you're a secret of culturity, you will seek out

teach us because of those.

Itching years, and you will find them.

If you're looking for somebody to condone homosexuality, you will

find it.

Why the Lord created each one of.

Us at his time, in this time of history, because

he wants us to seek and find him.

That's what this is about. Pastor meet my men.

And Moses found Jesus in his lifetime. Father Abraham, the

father of the faithful, found Jesus in his lifetime. Keen

David to sweech, so mister Israel found him during his lifetime.

David reflected upon creation in the twenty fourth Psalm. He

confirmed the Lord Jesus as the creator, just like the

Apostle Paul reflected upon the record of Moses. Both of

these men said, Jesus is Creator. It is possible through God,

you choose not to serve the Lord. If happily we

might feel after him. If we seek after him.

We'll find him.

That's what Apostle Paul said. That's how Apostle Paul encountered

the Lord Jesus on the road to the mastership. Personally,

I believe after the martyrdom of Stephen, and after the

testimony and the faithful witness of the martyr Stephen, that

Apostle Paul was seeking a.

Deeper walking experience in truth. That's what I believe.

And because of pressure within religion, he was doing things

just to do them to please the preacher, doing things

just to please the Sanhedrin, doing things just because he

had orders from the powers to be to go persecute

the church.

But inside of his heart, I believe he was a

true secret A man like Stephen should not have died

like that. The blood's patter that ruscious man cried out,

just like the blood's patter.

Of righteous ain't gonna cried out. That's why whatever Paul

fell off of that mighty steed into the sandy dunes

and asked the.

Lord good question, who are thou, Lord Jesus, said, O Jesus,

who now persecuted Paul realized at some point, I'm not

persecuting Stephen. I'm persecuting Jesus, my God in Heaven. I

support your realizer.

You're not a probable to the preacher. You're not a

problem to you. You're a coble. That's Jesus.

And when you come in our senses and realize you

need an alignment and you need an adjustment of attention, God,

my God, somebody, I'll tell you if I ain't gonna

come to any movement or any church of the lust

thus secret, if your secret, you'll find it. We know

how to get in touch with the Lord. We know

what we need to do to maintain this closeness in

this relationship.

With the Lord.

The prophet cheer of mine said, we will seek him

and find him. But he stated a contingency. We must

seek him with all of our heart. I said that

you put prophet Jeremiah that.

Was trying to help him.

He speak over to your state notes. He said, there's

a contingency. And that's what God's been saying for some

time now.

You are not needing his terms and his conditions. You're

not pasting, you're not hungr you're not seeking why not

and just your attention you could play the servants of

Pastor Howell.

Days, days and days and for days.

Brother Wood pulled up in our business yesterday. I didn't

even know he pulled up. Apparently Sister Howard stiffed outside.

Of the vehicle.

We were getting ready to leave in and she did something.

And she got back in and she said, our pastor

was preaching.

I said he was.

She said, yeah, Brother Aaron just pulled back there to

the shop and our pastor was preaching.

I said, how about that? Said he was listening to

his pastor preach. I didn't hear it, but you know

what she did. The brother Wood had me preaching.

She said the windows was down and he was listening.

If his windows were down, then I'm sure every time

he came to a stop signer, some pastor by, somebody

nearby heard the preaching.

But I doubt they even heard the message. The messenger

is speaking, But are you hearing the message? He that

hath ears to hear? Let him hear what the Spirit

of God says only the church. If you will seek

actor righteousness, he will rain righteousness upon you.

I said, if you're really seeking the Holy Ghost, you'll

have him in tonight's service, if not this.

Morning, is heard this.

Amend Oh, I feel like God is speaking to somebody.

He's a speaking, but are you seeking? He's a speaking,

but are you seeking?

The Prophet's Herema said, when you saw him with all

of your heart. It's true he is everywhere at every time.

But as each one of us searching for him.

I searched for a k O. I've heard gospel.

Singers singing this song. I kept on searching till I

found it. You know what, It's a two way street,

the wrong of reciprocity.

He draws and you draw nine. You draw nine and

he draws nine. He wants the drawing to be on

both ends.

Go come on.

Now, That's how you know you're called the treat preacher.

You're feeling it on your end, and God's feeling it

on his ear, and your pastor's feeling it to the

church feels it to We can tell when a true

seeker of the Holy Ghost comes in. And I could

grow frightened out with Sister Grays up, got an audience,

up with a king. He's been here all alone, Sister Grayson.

He's been sitting in that pew between you and Sister

Painter for a long time now.

But you've got a hold of his hand and you

walk down to the altar, and you know what, You

be different ever since that night.

You shoot what I'm talking.

They preach about an end time revival, but they ain't

searching part kept all sorts of kept off section, turn off.

Search and c pound the.

Apostle.

Paul told him Greek people, I said that if happily

filled out there, you'll find him. He's right there. The

truth is looking you in the eyes. Pilot, kiss the sun.

Rest to be angry with the wicked every day, kiss

him on the cheat. Pilot embraces truth.

I don't know about you, but I search for the

things that I want, and I search for the things

that I can't find that I want the things that.

I need to find at the moment.

Sister Howel and I walked out of our house the

other night. We closed the door, and she said, do

you have the house key? I had a lot over

my We was headed to revival, and for the first

time I couldn't locate the house key. I'm a creature

of habit. When I go in the house, my wallet

goes on one shelf and my keys hang on aen.

I raised my kids that way because about thirty years ago,

I decided I would not go searching for my keys

in case I needed them immediately to take a baby that's.

Rupture in her hemorrhage Internally, I told Brother Jeremia, the

reason I'm getting gas when I bumped into him is because.

If there's an emergency near in the middle of the night,

I don't want to search out a gas station.

And it's hoping.

But as we were headed to Revival, she asked me

a question she's never asked me before.

She said, do you have the keys to the house?

And I always had the keys to the house.

And I tapped this pocket, and I tapped that pocket,

and I said, no, I don't And I went to

where I had.

Left him all the way, and they weren't there. I

wasn't turning the house upside down.

I wasn't doing like some of you doing, running the

officer and looking outside on the lawnboard, and looking in

the grocery, looking in the back to the trunk of

the car, looking out there on the basketboat. Somebody just

randomly lay things here and there. But I'm a creature

of purpose and a creature of haboca and butter stiring.

I knew if they.

Ain't on their keyring, they're either out here in the

vehicle and there's somewhere nearby.

We didn't panny cot just to how to pull.

My suit come back, and hanging right here on my

pocket by the little doughnut keychain.

Was the key to the house.

I'm telling you it was right there.

It must side up but gets me and I would

have never knew it unless I went looking Forker. And

I'm telling you, as sister Root, my sister Walker up

the morning girl stuff?

Is that mecca? They already know that. I said, I

know what I gotta hold.

On this morning up.

I ain't gonna go looking for it. I ain't gonna

go looking for another servant. I know this is no

one of God who I go.

These preachers make me nervous when church is starting and

they hear somebody get annoy it testify and they go

searching through their notebook for a different mission. Don't you

realize it's between five and five hundred people in that

building that just because one person got annoyed it and testified,

that does not mean that's what you're supposed to preach.

Hold, we don't switch horses in the middle of the creek.

When it comes to this, we must preach sermons that

are specific.

After seeking the Lord just said, I'm not gonna go

up to let you go with me.

I said it earlier. He wasn't asking God to shift

from Egypt to Canaan. God has already in that bush

before it was burning. The Bible said, he turned some

of you have turned me off by now.

It's just about to get good. The Bible said. We

all that shipherd herding them sheep on that farmland. He

heard a noise.

He looked at a bush that had been there any

other day of the week. God had been in that bush.

God had been in the sap, in the vein of

that bark, in that tree.

He looked, and brother Jonathan, the Bible said, he beheld

the bush is on fire. Just ain't that perverted brother

in the church staring at his sister while she shouts,

you ain't gonna get your blessing but home. It'sist that, Elizabeth.

You'll take on your fancy all the way to Hell.

You'll get your blessing. Beholding the boosh?

Is it burning? Wise?

On fire?

That husband and wife on the road to a mass.

I prayed and fasted for years and started studying the

scriptures in depth. I got to looking at the various

accounts of that, looking into gospels, and then I even

felt like the Holy ghost folk something that matches up

with what the Word says.

God showed me that it was a man and a woman,

a husband and a wife. Oh my God, he said,

whenever he begin to open unnose to scriptures, they're walking

right beside him. I'm preaching like an evangelis now, ain't

They're walking right up beside him, shoulder and shoulder.

He talked, a Bible. It's just how slow and heart

to believe all that?

The trumpet says. I know that revival wasn't a coincidence.

I could tell Brother Wood was on fire. I can

tell Brother Jesse he was on fire. I could tell

Brother Nathaniel was on fire. I can tell Brother Samuel

was on fire. I can tell by the Samui stare

it was on fire. That night he came a pastor

and said, God, use your sister. He'll three times in interpretation.

What amazes me exactly what you two said is what

I would have testified on tonight had I been called on.

Opened your eyes and see when he opened up to

us the scripture.

They said, then our heart not burn with and well

open your eyes if your heart's burning, open your heart

if your eyes are burning. When you have seek for him,

saw after him, will all of your heart.

I'm seeking him. I'll tell you what I feel in

my spirit. Come nine fifty seven am on Sunday.

Morning, you're seeking the Lord. Come six pm Sunday night,

you're seeking the Lord. And come seven fifteen on revival,

you're seeking the Lord. I'd find him if I could.

You can.

He's not far from you. My heart's breaking for you

right now. I don't know what else we can do.

We've opened under you the scriptures. Our hearts are burned.

We've said.

Look at the bushes burning, Look at the annoying to God.

Look how God's lighting these ordinary bushes on fire. Look

how God's turning ordinary farm land in the holy land.

Look hout, God's taking.

Ordinary men and making creatures out over. Look at how

God's using people. They're feeling at you. They're finding him.

You know what, even after you get saved, after you

find him, you're still searching for him.

You continue to search for the Lord.

Day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute, and

second at the second. I'm gonna say this again by

the same to how if I know where it is,

I don't go searching for it.

But when it comes to the things of God, you

have to search for him for the rest of your life.

If by Walter's screw driver goes missing, I'll look in

the most likely place where I could have clipped them

or left them.

Some of you don't even know where you left God.

In the Book of Revelation, it was said I have

some what against you because you have left your first love.

It does not say lost.

You didn't accidentally lose it like that man did his

sword as he ran from his enemies.

You ain't accidentally lost to a victory.

You haven't accidentally lost your annoying and you have an

accident that you come out.

Of focus and out of adjustment. I'm preaching the message

the Holy Goos title that just your attention.

If you're focused on chicken right now, you won't even

take time to say hands at the church. You're gonna

go find chicken right If you're focused on Jesus right now,

you'll meet him right here at this altar.

Why don't we have to meet him at the altar.

If that's where he drew you to, that's where you

need to be. If he's drawn you to a burning bush,

you need to be at a burning bush. If he's

drawn you the banks of the red seat, you need

find him at the banks of the red sea. Aren't

we always in his presence?

Pastor? That's what you've just preached.

Yeah, but you're supposed to be constantly searching for and

feeling after him. You will seek me and find me

when you seek me with all your heart, when you

seek me with all your heart, Brother Sam And I'm

gonna ask.

You to do something. And the nosy people, the three

to five that I'm preaching to let me fold this.

They're gonna watch it just like they did this morning.

Was just the hand I was singing with the anointing.

They watched to see his brother Jesse don't sing another

voice another verse. His Pastor gonna ask brother Jesse and

brother Nathan, you'll play a little longer. They look, Sister Howell.

They focus on what they want to focus on. They

wonder what's next, as though they're waiting on it to cease.

And then what else is next.

Well, everybody else is looking up toward Heaven, reaching up

toward Heaven. Their eyes are focused on the Lord.

There's literally something you notice everything that goes on in church.

But what you need to notice.

I've heard for years of some people to set at

the back of the church simply for entertainment purposes and

to watch what's going on.

Perverts do that. I've dealt with those kind of perverts.

Gossip godlins do.

That, river rambles do that.

But I'm gonna ask Brother Sam gonna hide that handkerchief,

and I'm gonna ask.

Nobody to watch him.

He's gonna go towards the.

Back, and he's gonna hide that handkerchief. He may hide

it in the men's bathroom. He may hide it in

the nursery.

He may hide it in the vestibule. He may hide

it outside.

He may hide it.

In the same booth. He may hide it in the

whole barrel.

He may hide it somewhere. And the truth is it's

in this building.

The truth is some of you will walk past it,

Sister Howell, some will be literally within its reach. Brother Wood,

you sit in a message a couple of years ago,

I said sin is reachable and so is God.

It's what you're reaching for. Oh God, I'm It's like

spilled points Syster, Howell that a woman is spilled.

She gets a broom, she starts sweeping, sweeping and seeking,

sweeping and sneaking.

Until she finds it too.

It's like the Father of the prodigal every service that

they're really praying for, and says to Howell that they're

really carrying a burden when that back door opens, they

want is at my child? God forbid that one of

my grandbabies ever go out into a world of sin.

But I will tell you this, I will be praying,

and every time them double glass doors open, I won't

have eyes in the back of my head. But Brother Wood,

I would be asking, is that them that just came in?

That father stood at the gate and he was watching

for that son to come home. And the Bible said

he ran to him and he kissed him.

He was seeking him.

The closeness. Where's it at the relationship? You've heard of

marital relationships unwinding, busted.

Apart at the seams, wearing out to a frazzle.

Why because they forgot to adjust their attention, refocus on

what matter.

We will seek him, and we will find him when

we've sought with him.

For all our heart.

What was it?

The Lord told Asa?

What was it?

The Lord told Asa, He told him that he was

with him. While he was with him, the Lord told.

Asa, I am present with you as long as you

are present with me, and said the Chronicles fifteen and

two a cent. And he went out to meet Asah,

and the troph had said up to Asa, here you me, Asa,

and all Jude and Benjamin. The Lord is with you

while you be with him, And if you seek him,

he will be found of you. But if you forsake him,

he will forsake you. Here's what brother Wood did Friday night.

Here ye me dealing, and all Bethel and all of

the Cosmos. The Lord is with you, dealing while.

You be with him.

Do it, and if you seek him doing you will

be found to him. It's Jesus to the Roman gods,

he said, whom seek ye? Jesus asked the question, why

seek you the living.

Among the dead.

The presence of the Lord is everywhere, but not every

person is in close fellowship with the Lord. By is

this the Psalma said the lions and the cubs of

the lions. They're weak, and they're hungry, and they suffer

for lack of food. But those who seek the Lord

do not lack any good thing. And a paraphrase, But

those that seek the Lord do not lack any good thing,

the prophet Isaiah said, and a paraphrase. So for yourself righteousness,

break up your fellow ground and reap all.

Of these wonderful things. Put him first.

Seek him first, and then you won't be worried about finances.

Seek him first, and you won't wonder where mister Busin's

rights coming from.

Seek him first. I've heard people just seeking him to

let him know they love him, and being healed.

Sister Howell, just trying to seek for truth and righteousness

and preach truth and righteousness.

I had been healed, and just.

Trying to seek a closeness of fellowship. For God to

help my brother and sister. For it is time to

seek the Lord, Hoseiah said, For it is time to

seek the Lord until he comes and showers righteousness on you.

O fair phrase, He'll reigin it upon you, He'll shower

it upon you.

Listen.

You won't have revival unless God is part of that process.

And I love this when the Holy Ghost led me

to the scripture, brother the famiel, what will we do

without our helper, the Holy Ghost who helps us work

for him?

Right? But Amos was preaching, and Amos.

Said he that made the seven stars and old Riley.

Oh God, I feel like the creator couse most.

Has to stoop so low to ask somebody seek me.

God's not played hide and go seek with anyone.

He's just saying wake up.

And I told about Sister how Is you were doming

that life, and I said, honey, there's something on my

mind I can't shake.

That's what I heard of my spirit.

Wake up, wake up. And then I felt this title.

Adjust your attention, Brother Caleb. I can tell you've been

to the optomistress. I commend you for wearing eyeglasses because

they're needed.

I commend you for that.

I remember when a brother of mine first started telling

me his vision was faming. We discovered that on a

road trip and I realized he couldn't read the road

signs and he was seeking out help and assistance from me.

And I was navigating, saying, hey, you gotta turn here,

you gonna take a long turn. This morning, God has

showed you how to do what Daddy preached to you

Friday night. This morning, Bethel, God has showed you how

to do what great man of God brother would preach

to you.

Friday night.

The blind had found Jesus blind.

Bartimaeus, who did not have natural sight, failed after him

till he found it. When you search for him with

all your heart, Brother Jesse, when you come to the piano,

a fool though a wayfaring man, and the Bible said,

he will not err in this way. It's so clean,

it's so simple. Sister Howell, you told Sister Grace Friday night.

You said, Sister Grace, I have come to the understanding

this very night that it's a choice.

During that youth choir song.

Friday night, the Holy Ghost moved in an amazing way,

and I'm hoping they'll sing that again tonight.

I love that song.

In there.

I believe it said something about choosing joy. Does that

right sus to how it's a choice.

A little later, we.

Had tones in interpretation, and people have messaged this church

asking for the exact writing on the interpretation that was

given Friday night. People have gone out of their way

to message to churches say we want to do exactly

what God said. We heard it, but we want to

make sure we heard it all. The Lord spoke so

clearly about the son of Nun Joshua, who pulled if

you wouldn't preach for people, And the Holy Ghost pointed

out something I've never thought of.

Moses's minister.

The Holy Ghost pointed out the minister servants of our

Moses Jesus minister servants to the Lord had pointed us

to Christ. That's what evangelism is about, brother Stern. That's

why you'll stand out there next Saturday, if not this afternoon.

You're pointing.

Behold, look, just your attention. If you don't pay attention,

you're gonna miss it. Bob, you're gonna get so bite

with them babies. You're gonna miss it. If you don't

pay attention, you're gonna miss beautiful opportunities in that marriage.

If you don't pay attention, you're gonna miss beautiful opportunities

in their childhood. These altars are open right now, and

for three to five years we've been pulling.

Nobody has got to pray again. And all I can do.

Is every person in this building that's got a closeness

or relationship for fellowship. For God says to how every

person maintains that closeness in that fellowship by seeking him?

How are you gonna touch him right now?

Oh guys, oh God, they're preaching revival in the last way,

but they're not seeking down with all of their heart.

I'm not saying they're not having services. I'm not saying

the Lord's not making an appearance. Revival won't come without

heartfelt seeking.

A gest your attention. Forget about dinner right now and

focus on Jesus. Forget about work right down. Focus on Jesus.

Seek him that maketh the seven stars. And the more

I seek him, the more I find him.

That's what I want to tell somebody.

From experience, I can say, the more I seek him,

the more I find you.

The closer I look there I have with you. Take

a closer look and gest your attention. Just don't care

about what really matters.

I find that place beside your trace the Lord God

bless you.

It's reasons from my brother.

He's letting me breas the Lord.

All around in touch Jesus.

It's all that man mad of you. You'll never be said,

must really.

Seek he imprecious person. While he may be found dear

to him, all die unting him, while he's a side

of him, while his spirit calls, while his spirit beckons

come on taking himself seek him, while he may be calling,

while he's a couple of purs We know God's near

to help him. He's not going to be to perish.

Just put focusing on what is at gesture attention in

the name of Jesus.

At gesture attention in the villages.

Yes, ch Jesus, it's all that really bad in your life.

Believe every.

Sad for days aly.

Wan way to do.

Just when you call that was bad when I don't

have that.
