Behind The Curtain - Kingdom Spirit

Thanks for checking out the Anchor Faith Message podcast

from St. Augustine, FL.

Now enjoy this message. I want to talk to you.

What's behind the curtain? OK, so in first Sam in chapter

16 verse seven, in first Sam in 16 seven it says this.

But the Lord said to Samuel, do not look at his appearance or at

the height of his stature, because I have rejected him.

For God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward

appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.

Now this word heart is not the physical organ, because I could

rip your physical organ out of your chest and see it.

What he's saying is he sees in the unseen, and so we want to

get behind the curtain, in essence, pull back the veil.

Because there's another realm, spirit realm out there that is

unseen to our eyes and our senses, but yet it exists.

And since we're diving into the things that are behind the veil

so that we can become adequately trained that way in this season,

that most likely is the acceleration of the latter days,

where the spirit explicitly says in latter days, that's the last

of the last days. There will be many will fall

away from the faith, paying attention to seducing spirits

and doctrines of demons. Seducing spirits and doctrines

of demons are not seen. They are things in the unseen

that show up in our ears. They show up in our eyes and

they create a doctrine or a thought process that we begin to

ascribe to and believe. And we believe, people believe

that we're of God, that these evil things are actually right

now instead of what God says. And it's because they are

looking like man and not like God.

Because the unseen realm of the spirit that the devil functions

in, he's always there to touch your sense, which means he's

there to identify with what you already can easily identify.

With the one particular pastor I met from Marion County, he said

pastor again. He's quite a bit more tan than I

am, he said. Pastor, he's a Bishop, he said.

He said my congregation only filters God through tragedy.

They only believe they can touch God through tribulation and

tragedy. They don't.

No matter how much I'm trying. That's why I need to bring you

in, because I don't care how the light bulb comes on along.

They won't take kingship because everything we've been trained

and taught, our whole society, my whole culture has been taught

to only see God through tragedy, which ultimately means we're the

victim in everything and it needs to change because they're

not Kingdom, I said. I understand now.

I don't understand his level, but I do understand because I've

been around, you know more than me, OK, And so you know this is

the problem because the minute you've had an issue and someone

starts talking about your issue, you can identify.

Are you hearing me? So this the spirit realm, What's

behind the current in the realm of the demonic or the devil is

to get you to identify with things you already felt, right?

So you can jump on it, because you can.

You can. You felt that you've experienced

that. And so it becomes more real

because of your experience instead of it real because God

says it. And if God says that, that's

actually more real than the experience you have, because

maybe the experience you have, God never intended, and the

experience you had actually came from the devil.

And God wants to deliver you from the devil's demonic attack,

so he needs you to get over to his word and experience it.

But because you want to keep identifying with your experience

and make God identify with you through your experience, then

God's like, I can't identify with you.

Because here's the thing. God himself, other than through

Christ the Father, has never failed.

Jesus himself has never experienced death walking in the

earth. He was tempted to sin, but never

sin. The wage of sin is that now he

became sin. So at that point there's an

experience because he took on you, although he himself didn't

do it, and Jesus did not take on you to identify with you.

This is the problem. Jesus didn't become like us to

identify with us. Jesus became like us because the

first Adam had the dominion. So it requires God to be a man

to gain back dominion. He's not here to identify with

us, although he can't identify with our temptations, he said.

God, if anyone understands, you have a high priest who can

sympathize with you, right? Because he was tempted on all

accounts yet never sinned. So he can say, I know what it's

like for the enemy to come after you.

Yet I'm the one who was victorious and never succumbed,

So I was never the victim. I was always the victor.

So what I need you to is identify with me.

I need you to identify with me, 'cause when you identify with

me, then you'll identify in Christ, which is in the king.

And when you identify there, then you'll quit looking at how

you feel or how you felt or how you went through.

You'll start throwing that junk away and you'll only focus on on

who he is and who you've been made.

Then you'll actually see like God, because the minute you

navigate towards people that look like you, you're already

being ungodly because man does not look on the outward

appearance, period. And the New Covenant says we are

not to regard man in the flesh. So I don't regard you based upon

your paint job, 'cause it's just a paint job.

And you've heard us say this before, that if you go out to

the parking lot right now, those are vehicles.

What do they do, carry you? That's this assignment to take

you somewhere. You're not your car, you're in

it. Well, you're not your outward

suit, you're a spirit man in it. And the black cars don't park

together, the white cars don't park together, the yellow cars

don't park together. The red cars don't park

together. The blue cars don't park

together. I mean, they just park.

I've never seen a black car get by a white car and say, what are

you doing here? I've never seen it pull out of

its space when you're not in it and move somewhere else.

It's never happened. Hallelujah.

So don't care about your paint job because God, God is not

colorblind. Because he's too creative to let

us all be the same color. He's too creative.

I mean, there's not one green, there's not one red, there's not

one yellow or orange. I mean, we look at the trees,

the bark on trees. Different.

God's way too creative. This is why I personally can't

have tattoos, because I would be completely tattooed.

I would it would never stop because I'd be like, oh, that's

cool. But then it's one.

And I like more stuff. I like to be more creative so it

would expand. So instead of me just turning

into one big tattoo, I choose not to put on any odd.

Are you hearing me, 'cause I know I will have a problem.

Now if I did temporary ones where I could wash it off and do

it, then that would be good for me because then I'd be like, I'm

bored with that, right? OK, God's too creative.

Yet the devil has used it for division and he said Samuel

straight and says you're looking at the guy.

Now. In this case, it wasn't

technically a color issue, it was a statute issue.

It's he compared him with the Last King.

Well, he looks like the last guy, so he must be it, since

that was how God picked the first.

Well, God didn't pick the 1st. I'm going to say that again, God

didn't pick the first. God gave the king the people

wanted, and he knew what they wanted because they were

eyeballing the rest. And they're like, they looking

for a giant, somebody big and strong.

You know, because if they look big and strong, then they must

be strong, right? And so he's like, they still

ain't strong enough. So I'm gonna help him out and

put an anointing on them, Let him know that really how weak

they are even and how big they are and if they'll yield to me

it'd be awesome. But if they don't, he told King

Saw. He said if you'll.

Do what I say. There will not be in your family

line a king that doesn't sit on the throne.

Which tells me if he'd had done that, Jesus would have came

through Saul's blood lung. But because Saul wouldn't and he

didn't, he said, well, I go looking like I go look for

because Saul's man's pick that I anointed to try to help out.

But he didn't want it because he had selfish ambition anyway,

because men are only selfish. So for me to go find someone

that can be king, that I can anoint and stay within it, I

need to find somebody after my own heart, right.

So he says, you know, look, I don't look at the outward

appearance, I'm looking at the heart.

So God is is never captivated with what we see.

He's already he, he effects what we see.

Experience touched through our five senses from a behind the

curtain perspective, and the devil does the same thing, all

right. Proverbs 1412 says there is a

way which seems right to a man, but his end is a way of death.

So there's something he's seeing.

He's making his judgments based upon it and based upon that

without God being a part of the process.

It just ends in death, right? Luke 1615 says it this way.

And he said to them, you are those who justly justify

yourself in the sight of men. But God knows, your heart for

that which is highly esteemed among men, is what detestable in

the sight of God. So there's something going down

with these individuals that in the natural realm, seeing and

hearing men are like, wow, how awesome that guy is.

So awesome. That woman is so amazing, yet

God behind the curtain is saying this is disgusting.

So while a lot of men praise, God, gives no praise to, and we

need to figure out what God's giving praise to, not what man's

giving praise. To.

We need to be able to discern this because both of them are

being affected from things behind the curtain, and the

devil behind the curtain is getting you to only focus on

what you can see. Where God behind the curtain

says, focus on what's behind the curtain and it will affect what

you see. You hear me?

This is what Paul said in Second Corinthians chapter 4, verse 16

2 Corinthians 4:16–18

through 18. He said, Therefore we do not

lose heart. But though our outward man is

decaying, yet our inward man is being renewed day by day, which

means there's a conflict. You see me maybe getting older.

You see me maybe, you know my body's not in the same peak

performance as it was at one point.

But know this on the inside that you can't see It is stronger.

In this suit that's not as strong as it was at one time.

It is even stronger. And the older I get, the

stronger on the inside I'll be. Are you hearing me?

Then He goes on to say, For the momentary light affliction is

producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all

comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen, but

at the things which are not seen.

For the things which are seen are temporal or temporary, but

the things which are not seen are eternal, Unseen things Are

not seen things. Now that doesn't mean you can't

perceive it. You can't sense it.

In fact, you can become so aware of what's not seen that it's

more real to you than what you do see.

Amen. When we were believing God for

them all it was more real to us. And I know I can testify for

myself and I believe this for most of you every day we came on

the property and we were thank you Lord for 2121 US one no

matter what we were hearing And I was here a little bit more

than y'all but what we are, no matter what we're hearing I

we're convinced this is our mall and us having mall 2121 and us

remodeling is irrelevant to us. We are convinced that it's ours,

even though in the natural I can't see it and maybe even in

my hearing I'm hearing it ain't going to come to pass.

But I'm so convinced in my spirit that that unseen reality

is going to change this scene reality.

And it did. Come on, can I get an Amen?

I remember the first time my wife and I bought a house.

We had never bought a house before, rented our whole time

till we moved to Saint Augustine, gotten our purpose.

And so not that we couldn't have bought one before, we just

didn't. And so we got here and it's time

to buy. My wife ended up finding a home

that was a lease for, you know, lease to purchase type deal.

And so we went in on it. And so we're going.

And at this point, you know, we're starting to.

Look. For someone to finance us to buy

the house. OK.

And at the end of the day, you know, I was getting some letters

based upon me just moving into the state, Hadn't been here that

long. Although I'm saying that I've

been a pastor for, you know, multiple years and that whole,

you know, career has carried through.

I just happened to be in this location for less, you know,

just over a year. And so I started getting letters

in the mail that had rejected me for financing.

Well, you know, when you read that, it can, it's, it's in the

scene. It's telling you you've been

denied, right? Well, that's coming.

Well, there was a particular plant in our front yard that was

holding moisture and caused one section to kind of rot out a

piece of trim. And my wife didn't like it, so I

went out to cut thing down. She said, what are you doing?

I said, I'm getting rid of this, you know, we're going to cut it

on out. She said this isn't our house

yet. Now she was just talking.

She wasn't being not in faith, She was just stating the facts.

Me on the other hand, OK, it was my moment of faith declaration.

I said this is my house. It will only be my high.

And again, I'm not saying my wife was in unbelief.

She'd not at all. She believed God with me.

I'm just saying at she was like shocked at my violent response

to the tree. Right.

I am hacking on this deal. You're coming out.

You know we're at the roots, people.

I'm not cutting. I mean, I am digging out.

I'm finding I'm cut, I'm chopping.

I mean, I'm getting swollen with my muscles type stuff and we are

tearing this thing out, this in our house.

What if the owner, I said it's my house, I'm tearing.

I ripped it. I threw it halfway across the

front yard, right, 'cause I was so convinced of the unseen being

more real than the scene. Now it was my moment, my moment

to do that was my way of saying I don't believe these letters.

You're lying to me. And ultimately they were lies.

And bought the house and we lived in it for 13 years.

Are you hearing me now? Paul knows this more than anyone

because he knows what it means to live the life of only making

decisions based upon what you can do.

And this is outline of Philippians chapter 3.

Philippians 3 · chapter mention

Amen. In Philippians chapter 3 verses

Philippians 3:3

3 through AM, we'll read out of the Passion.

It says this for we have already experienced heart circumcision

and we worship God in the power and freedom of the Holy Spirit,

not in laws and religious duties.

We are those who boast in what Jesus Christ has done and not in

what we can accomplish in our own strength.

It's true that I once relied on all that I had become.

I had a reason to boast and impress people with my

accomplishments more than others, for my pedigree was

impeccable. I was born a true Hebrew of the

heritage of Israel, of the sons of a Jewish man from the tribe

of Benjamin. I was circumcised 8 days after

my birth, and was raised in the strict tradition of Orthodox

Judaism, living a separated and devoted life as a Pharisee.

And concerning the righteousness of the Torah, no one surpassed

me. I was without a peer.

Furthermore, as a fiery defender of the truth, I persecuted the

messianic believers with religious zeal.

Yet all of these, the accomplishments that I once took

credit for, I've now forsaken them and regard it all as

nothing compared to the delightful delight of

experiencing Jesus Christ as my Lord.

To truly know He meant he let. He meant letting go of

everything from my past and throwing all my boasting on the

garbage. He it's like a pile of manure to

me now so that I may be enriched in the reality of knowing Jesus

Christ and embrace him as Lord in all of his greatness.

Wow, isn't that amazing? But we need to understand this.

With every new natural way to accomplish an event or task, the

less dependent the believer will rely on the spirit of God and

faith. Smith Wigglesworth said this The

further medical science gets, the less people will believe God

to be healed. Why?

Because they can see the medication naturally.

Take it. Period.

Now that is not to say you can't take medicine.

I'm not saying that. So know that because if the Lord

talks to you about taking something, take it.

Period. Because in some sentences

instances, for those who based upon what it is, there may be

some things that God wants you to do in a natural sense anyway.

For some people who have some challenges physically, it is a

natural issue. Because diet itself can change

things. Exercise can change things,

right? Not everything that God's doing

has to be supernatural because he designed our body in a

natural way. However, if what we do is look

to the shelf 1st and not to the word first, then we're failing.

And that's the difference, OK? You know, a lot of times people,

in fact I know of one particular individual had a situation and

it came out of their mouth. I don't have time to believe

God. I'll just go ahead and do this.

Well, that's a problem because now you're allowing what medical

science can can do, can do, and you're not even consulting God.

Now God may say go ahead and do something, especially when it

comes to surgery, because even the scripture gives an occasion

for that when he says if your eye offends you, what now we

know. Now in a literal sense, if you

can't keep your eyes from lusting, he's being real.

It'd be better for you not to see it and go on and stay

righteous with God instead of forfeit your soul and your walk

with God. Because you can't.

You won't allow the fruit of the spirit of self-control to

function as gross as that and gruesome as that sound in

comparison. It's better to gouge your

eyeballs out. But what I'm saying is, there

can be things happening in your body that God says remove it.

So again, what if you have cancer?

Can God cure it? Can he eliminate it

supernaturally? Sure.

But what if he says have it removed?

Well, what's the problem? Cut it out, because cancer is

offensive to your body. But consult God, is what I'm

saying. That's what I'm talking about,

all right. But we have to make sure that we

don't put ourselves in a position to where we 'cause we

can in our natural body look behind the veil of the spirit

realm, but then close the curtain and stay in the natural.

And the reason why that is because there's always a

conversation happening and I'm going to use this Luke 1720 and

21 account because this is the challenge that comes, it says

now having been questioned by the Pharisees, that's when the

Kingdom of God was coming, he answered and said to them, the

Kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed, nor

will they say, look, here it is or there it is.

For behold, the Kingdom of God is in your midst.

Now again, the reason why the religious people are asking this

is because they could see kingdoms, they could see the

castle so to speak. They could see the throne that

Caesar would sit on if they were in Rome.

In this case, they could definitely see the throne that

King Herod set on, right. So they could see the.

So they're like when we going to see it because when you're

around things that can be seen, you can make a demand on seeing

it. When you're inundated with your

senses, you can begin to make a demand on being able to see it

first before you actually believe it exists.

And that's what this conversation is about.

Well, it can happen even in the new covenant where we start

things out recognizing I can't be have a relationship with God.

There's nothing I can do in the natural to have that

relationship. I I I just know in the unseen

that Jesus Christ died. Rose.

His blood is on the mercy seat, though I do not see it.

It's behind a curtain that I cannot see right now.

But I know it exists. I know it's flowing.

I know forgiveness is there. I believe that I'm firmly

persuaded. So I'm going to call on the name

of the Lord. I'm going to be saved.

And then we don't see it, but we, the spirit of the man that

was dead, law, separated from God, gets evicted from this

suit, although we do not see it. Leave our body, and a new spirit

comes in, which is in the likeness of God.

Then we don't see it, but we know the Holy Ghost is in us

because he bears witness with our spirit that we can't see in

that dimension. Yet we know it.

We're convinced of it. We're firmly persuaded of it.

We know we're alive to God, and then we can start looking

natural again. Paul dealt with the Church of

Galatia concerning this. I'll read it out of the message

Bible Galatians chapter 3 verses one through 4, he says.

Galatians 3 · chapter mention

You crazy Galatians because it's crazy.

It's what I like to call a freak of nature.

Your spirit man is alive and the Holy Ghost lives in you and

you're going to perform like you don't have God, he said.

You crazy Galatians? Did someone put a hex on you?

Have you taken leave of your senses?

Something crazy has happened, for it's obvious that you no

longer have the crucified Jesus in clear focus in your lives.

His sacrifice on the cross was certainly set before you clearly

enough. Let me begin with this question.

How did your new life begin? Was it by working your heads off

to please God? Or was it by responding to God's

message to you? Are you going to continue this

craziness? For only crazy people would

think they could complete by their own efforts what God

begun. What was begun by God?

If you weren't smart enough or strong enough to begin it, how

do you suppose you could perfect it?

Did you go through this whole painful learning process for

nothing? It is not yet a total loss, but

it certainly will be if you keep this up.

And so if we don't watch out, and we do know that the Bible

tells us in the last of the last days, the Spirit explicitly says

in the last days many will fall away.

Or some, excuse me, will fall away from the faith, paying

attention to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons.

In essence, they'll get captivated here that what's

behind the curtain will convince them that this is more real than

what's behind the curtain. Yet God says, let me get you

behind the curtain, because this is more real than what you see.

And if you keep your focus behind the curtain, then it'll

change what you see here. So the demonic realm is using

the scene realm to worsen your scene realm, and they're

manipulating you behind the curtain where God wants you

behind the curtain so that your scene realm will line up to God.

Amen. One convinces you that this is

as good as it gets and your thinking is the best thinking.

Again, I'm going to say this because I want to safeguard you

when it when it comes to ministers to date and I don't

know everybody. Trust me, I do not.

And my my interaction with pastors are limited.

But of all the pastors that I've interacted with, of those that

became avid readers of material other than the scripture, all

have gotten off but one. Meaning they'll bring in

secularism, new way, all kinds of stuff because they're reading

from people that basically are not purists and because their

peak, they will begin to take these thoughts, patterns.

And and I'm talking people that are considered Christian books

that they are reading their have dove into these authors so much

so that it becomes the meat of their study instead of the

scripture and they all get off. I only know of 1, and that's

Apostle Scales out of Columbus, OH.

He's the only one that I know is a well read man of other

material, but he is so well read in scripture that he never lets

those books influence that core belief.

He's the only one I know to date.

You don't have that problem with me because I spend a lot of time

in scripture. Don't spend a whole lot of time

and other stuff because honestly, I don't even have time

now. I always read people's stuff

that the Lord directs me to, and when he does that, then I'm

looking at it through the lens of scripture.

I'm not there to believe everything they say.

I'm there to read it and believe what's in context of Scripture.

And that and that alone. OK, But with that being said,

what if we don't watch out? We will do this.

And again, there's 168 hours in a day, right?

You come to church twice, maybe. I think y'all, most of y'all

come to church twice. At least some of y'all more

times because the Kingdom Institute and 318I understand

that. But you actually sit through and

I preach longer than most intentionally.

OK, because I'm competing with the world because this used to

be two theaters that if we were running theaters again, you're

watching 2-3 hour movies and holding it till the movie's

done. Not like what I see on the

camera. We we clicking.

Y'all. I'm start getting a count.

Seth, you were out of your seat three times a day.

No, I'm kidding. Hey man, you know 'cause

sometimes we just get kind of LAX and we're not hanging on,

but God wants to give us life, right?

So again, you know, in that context you're if if you're not

deliberately taking up your other space with very

intentional things of God, and you're just letting other stuff

come in, the doctrine of Fox News will dominate the doctrine

of the Bible. The doctrine of CNN will

dominate the doctrine of the Bible.

The doctrine of the cubicle or the workspace doctrine will

dominate the doctrine of the Bible.

It'll do it because you're hearing it more right.

So you have to be very intentional.

OK, so there is this realm that we have to understand exists

behind a curtain that we need to make more real in our lives.

So again, by stirring you up by way of reminder, I'm probably

going to end with this one tonight, that the unseen exists,

period. And as easy as that sounds, and

we can all agree with that, living from that realm is not as

easy. It's not.

It has to become intentional, 'cause it's easier to live

natural. You understand?

It's easy to be carnal. Extremely easy.

It takes no effort to be born again, but live fleshly because

you've been trained in it and most of the people around you

are fleshly because most of them are lost and they live according

to their flesh. So you know, I was talking to

Marissa before service. She said, you know, her company

just had a massive layoff, just had a massive 1.

But they told back in November, was it that they were saying

it's coming? So, you know, obviously her

immediate supervisor was like, you know, now if y'all need to

have some anxiety classes, you know, to help deal with all

this, yeah, yeah, this is. Corporate world people, I mean,

this is her corporate, global world she's in because what

she's in is global, OK? And so, you know, they're like,

you know, we understand if you need to take some time to have

some, you know, go to attend some anxiety classes, right.

So they end up you know? The boss or her supervisor end

up talked to her and says, you know, you know, whatever you

need. And she's like, I'm fine, no

problem. I'm going to be here anyway.

Well, you sure are confident in yourself.

Well, the the God told me I would.

I would stay. OK, All right.

Well, they had layoffs. Everybody in her department's

gone but her now on one side. She was like, cut me loose,

Lord, I'll go, I'm out of here. Am I done?

The Lord told her, backing up, you're not done.

So her supervisor says, well, seems like what you believed

happened. She said, well, I believed it

because the Lord told me. And they said, you know, I'd

probably like to talk more of you about that because they

realized she was never anxious in the last two months.

Because she's from a different world, people.

Aren't you glad we're from a different world?

I said. Aren't you glad we're from a

different world? Amen.

Because here's the thing, even if she had been cut, she's

wasn't anxious anyway. In fact, she was excited about

the opportunity of where is God planning me next?

Because they don't know that an ambassador's about to show up,

and they're going to pay me to be an ambassador for the Kingdom

in the workplace. Right.

But that so happened the Lord let her know she wasn't being

cut. So she's in it to win it, right?

And you know what? It could be for this person.

For all we know, it could just be that she's testifying, this

person. And they may never accept God,

but when they stand before the Lord one day he said, I sent

you, Marissa. She walked it in front of you

and you knew it. And you even said you won't talk

about it. But then we got down to it.

You didn't want to hear it. So don't tell me you didn't

know. Because, you know, you know, now

depart from me, you worker of iniquity.

I'm not saying they're going to do that.

I'm just saying or you hear me. We must be intentional to know

that what we're constantly seeing.

Because I live just like you. I mean, actually I don't live

just like you. Most of you I don't live like at

all because most of you only are dealing with the things that are

at your home address. So I deal with my home address

and I deal with this address and then I deal with the 83

employees that are part of this address and their addresses.

And then I deal with the community because of the

influence we have through this, the outreaches and businesses

that we have to connect them, you know, So just like a major

stuff we're dealing with constantly, OK.

And I have to keep my focus on the fact that this is temporal

and this is changed by what I keep my eyes connected to this

unseen realm because it exists. It is more real than this

because that environment that's behind the curtain of God will

come to the forefront naturally, to where it's the only

environment that exists in both the seen and unseen realms.

It will squeeze everything else out, and everything contrary to

will be confined to a place called the Lake of Fire.

It will be confined. It will be stuck in a set of

boundaries. No freedom.

There's no freedom. It will be bound.

It'll be in one location, all of it, period.

But the rest of us will be free, just as we're free now.

Are you hearing me? Because whom the Son sets free

is free indeed. So let me run through a few of

these scriptures and we'll close, says this in Romans

chapter one, verse 20. Again, to remind you, this

unseen realm is more real than what we see now.

OK, Romans 120 says this for since the creation of the world

his what? Invisible.

What is translation is this? Where are you at?

OK, I'm in verse 20. They are they.

They jumped up in 18. I'm just reading 20.

It says this for since the creation of the world, His

invisible attributes, his eternal power and divine nature

have been clearly seen. Now this is crazy.

Because of His invisible attributes, it makes an effect

on His divine nature. So what we see as a result of

what He is doing from an unseen realm.

This is why the discoverers of the DNA strand, those who

discovered the DNA strand, then once they discovered it, they

immediately knew evolutions off the charts.

It can't be plausible for us. I abandoned that theory.

Now that doesn't mean they became believers in God himself.

They knew somebody started this. This is not through an

evolutionary chain, is not. Period.

There is a higher form of being that started this process.

They were convinced because again, his invisible attributes

again through his world. OK, Since the creation, his

eternal power and his divine nature have been clearly seen

being understood through what has been made so that they are

without excuse. Which means I don't care what

nation you go to on the planet, the minute they start looking at

the trees and animals, God is clearly being seen.

Period. Are you hearing me?

Because the unseen is being reflected in the natural

Colossian. But again, the natural is being

being affected because it first came from an unseen.

Again, where is the trees? Where is the fish?

Where are the animals? Where are the stars?

They're in the mind of the Father.

And then, but God, then God. So from his imagination,

someplace none of us could see, He spoke it and then it became,

do you understand? There's no situation you're

going in that His spoken word to you from his written written

word doesn't change it. So don't say, oh, we got a bill,

what are we going to do? Oh, my body's being attacked

with sickness. What am I going to do?

You got to tap in. I said you got to tap in.

Do you hear what's going on in the news?

You know, they they say we're going to have a a economic

collapse. Well, aren't you glad you're in

a different economy? They cannot collapse.

But have you invested in that economy?

Because you understand you can't lose stocks if you're not in

stocks. You can't lose on your 4O1K4O1B

or retirement fund if you don't have anything in it.

You can't lose Social Security if you're not in it.

But they taking it so you know what's in there for you.

OK. The point is, if you haven't put

something in it you can't expect, you can't be concerned

if it collapses. So when people during, you know,

2008 or especially during the Great Depression, you know it

was in those arenas that people lost that then eventually

affected other people in general.

But if you didn't have anything in it, then it didn't

technically affect you. Well, let me tell you something.

If you're not in God's economic system, you're already being

affected by the world system because you're not tapped into

one that's they can't be shaken because once you get into it,

this whole economy on the world can collapse and God still take.

Care of you. In fact, he will transfer

wealth. I'll say they'll transfer.

Amen. He'll do it.

I don't care if they only go to a digital currency, OK?

If they go to it to where you know your account is based upon

a number that you never see, that they can freeze and keep it

from you anyway, or erase it and then you don't have it because

you don't have anything tangible anyway.

But even if that happens, God can send birds to feed you

daily. And while the world is looking

for scraps, you hanging out waiting for your next Raven

cause a global collapse didn't kill the birds.

Amen. But again, unless you're in His

economy, then you're not going to reap the benefit.

So you need to get in this economy.

How do I get it? You tithe.

You give offerings. That's how you get in.

Amen. You trust God?

Oh, you just want my money. I don't want your money.

You want to put your money in the heavenly account, Jesus says

Store up for yourself treasures. Jesus said that he.

Can't lie. There must be a way you can

store it, 'cause God is not a man that he should.

Amen. And our book's about to come

out. We're about to finish the book

on economics. Hallelujah.

Amen. Colossians 115 to 16 It says,

For he is the image of the invisible God, the first born of

all creation. For by him all things were

created both in heaven and on earth, visible.

And that means there's things created invisible you don't see,

but they're visible to God. Whether Thrones or dominions or

rulers or authorities, all things have been created through

him and for him. So God creates the invisible and

the invisible. For us, the visible is only

visible, and the invisible we think don't exist.

But God says the invisible is just as visible as the visible.

It's invisible, yes, because to some it is, but to me it's not.

So from God's perspective he has the visible and visible, but

when he's talking to us, he says the visible and invisible.

Because what I see you don't Hallelujah, but when you tap

into God, then really everything's visible.

Because I see my faith, I know I'm firmly persuaded, and it

eventually produced that which I'm speaking and firmly

persuaded by the word of God. Are you hearing me?

Amen. First Timothy 117 says this, Now

to the King, eternal, immortal, invisible, and only God be honor

and glory forever and ever. Amen.

Well, I can't see God, so he doesn't exist.

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

And again, we talked about this Sunday.

There's obviously oxygen in the room.

How do we know? Because you're not dead.

Because if the oxygen got sucked out of this room, no more was

coming in. It would get replaced with what

bit of oxygens in us with our carbon dioxide until it becomes

so toxic that we die and they come in and think we were a

cult, right? I knew they were a colt.

No, the oxygen got sucked out of the room, man.

We didn't know it at the time. We are culture though.

Amen. But again, God says he's

immortal, invisible, just because you don't seem to mean

he doesn't exist. There's angels in the room right

now. I said.

There's angels in the room. Amen.

And we could tell our angels we'll talk about it.

Even though you don't see them. They're listening.

They're waiting a command. We don't worship them.

And they'll tell you don't worship me, but just give me a

command because I'm here to help you.

Are you hearing me? Got two more scriptures And

we'll close Elisha in second Kings 615 to 17.

Now he's he's This is Old Covenant Guy.

All right, says now, when the attendant of the man of God had

risen early and gone out, behold, an army with horses and

Chariots was encircling the city.

And his servant said, Alas, my master, what shall I do?

What shall we do? So he answered, do not fear, for

those who are with us are more than those who are with them.

And the master went out and said, OK, I mean all these

people are with that army. It's you, me, it's two.

Let me go back out and count. I don't know.

You didn't sleep well. Did you eat something?

Because master, I counted 5 times and there's definitely

more of them than you and me in this tent.

So what's he saying? Verse 17.

Then Elisha prayed and said, oh Lord, I pray open his eyes.

What was he? A blind guy?

Obviously it wasn't, because then the first part of the

scripture doesn't work. He went out and saw right.

It says the attendant of the man of God, risen early, gone out

and behold, an army with Chariots.

And the servant said to him, Alas, my master, what shall we

do? In essence, how could he see it

if he was actually literally blonde?

He obviously wasn't blind. He could see naturally.

But yet Elijah's asking him to be able to have eyes open to

see. And it's not natural eyes.

It's pull back the curtain and the Lord opened the sermon's eye

in essence, he said. Because they were down at the

city and they were obviously in a valley and there was mountains

around them. So God started grabbing the

curtain at the top of the mountain and was pulling it

back. And when he pulled it back it

says this and behold, the mountain was full of horses and

Chariots of fire around Elijah. Glory to God.

So Elijah is aware I've had this army with me the whole time.

I said I've had this army with me the whole time because I'm

more aware of that realm and its existence.

So when these come, they don't move me.

And when you're aware of that, then no trial temptation or

test. Is going to move you because

you're very much aware of #1. I can't seem, but you understand

the greater ones on the inside of me.

So you're already at a deficit because you don't.

But I mean, I would love to take my shirt off right now and show

you the Holy Ghost. You hear what I'm saying?

I like to take the. Curtain off and you see God, but

I know he's there and I'm more aware of that.

Which means that I also am more aware of the fruits that he's

holding in his hand, Which means when someone attacks me, I can

be like hey may that patience. Go ahead and give me one of

those self-control ones while I'm there, right?

Because I'm more aware of that than what I'm seeing right now.

For me to respond I'm giving you practical stuff that's saved

your life. Romans 417 last scripture.

Is this because again the unseen exist?

The latter part in the new King James says it this way.

God who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do

not exist as though they did Amplified says this who gives

life to the dead and speaks of the non existent things that he

has foretold and promised as if already existed.

In essence, Abraham said I'm going to have a son.

I'm having a son with Sarah, period.

Because Sarah was wrong unfortunately and I should have

never slept with a woman. The Lord corrected that.

So at this point, this lady's going to have a child.

And it says he did not stagger in unbelief but grew strong in

faith because he's the father of faith, father of us all.

And God calls those things that be not as though they were.

And to the world they'll say it's dead, you're dead.

It ain't going to work. Ain't going to work.

No hope for you. This is it.

This is a problem. And they're showing you

everything in the natural. But you're like this realm, man

is real, this realms good subject to change.

Because I'm behind the curtain and we're not talking about the

Wizard of Oz here, people. You understand what I'm saying?

I'm not talking about the Wizard of Oz.

I'm talking about the King of Glory, the creator of Heaven and

Earth. He has a whole.

Host of invisible things visible to him that he wants you to be

able to see from this side and pull things over.

Let's pray, Father. We love you and we honor you.

We thank you. You're the king of.
