Kingdom Rise Conference - Day 2 - Session 2 - Pastor Mark Brady Jr.

Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith, Message podcast

from st. Augustine Florida.

Now, enjoy this message. Right.

Father, we thank you for your word this morning, we thank you

for this conference. All that you are imparting and

we pray that we have Minds to receive Hearts to respond.

Father. I thank you both.

That we are receptive to the word and responsive through

application that we can be Bears of fruit through all that we are

receiving this week. Father, I think you, we are not

here as only. We are doers and we see the word

applied and accomplished in our lives, in Jesus name.

Amen. Matthew 13.

If you will In true AFC fashion, Pastor Oman blew past his time,

it's on the application to be an Interfaith Church.

Pastor, you have to if you finish a message within an hour,

you are disqualified. So To his.

You're catching Pastor Daryl see is is that there's something

about an hour down here at anchor, Faith Church.

It goes a lot longer than an hour anywhere else.

But man, this conference is just been so rich.

If you received something already golly, it's just my

goodness. I could have just listened to

that and, you know, to his credit, he did have to say

everything twice. So he really only preached about

34 minutes. If you really count it, man.

So we are talking about the mystery of the Kingdom.

We are talking about how we see hear receive this Kingdom word.

It's been about 15 years now that I have been entrenched in

the kingdom and the thing that I have learned over these 15 years

when it comes to the kingdom message versus just receiving

any message or any word. Is that the degree of Kingdom

that is revealed or exhibited in your life?

Directly correlates with the degree to which you receive the

kingdom? You cannot exhibit.

You cannot apply. You cannot live beyond what you

comprehend? No, understand or receive.

And we saw in John chapter 3 that Jesus had a conversation

John 3 · chapter mention

with the religious leader, the elite of the elite, the top dog,

as if you will, when it came to matters of the kingdom of God,

that should have been at the elite or at the top.

Jesus has a conversation with Nicodemus and Nicodemus, says

Master. We hear the great teachings, we

see the signs and wonders, we see the miraculous taking place

and we know that God is with you.

And Jesus responds with a very interesting statement.

He says, you cannot see the kingdom unless you Born again,

very interesting that he would immediately move to, man, you

haven't even graphs. The beginning of this thing, you

are seeing the results of the Kingdom, you're seeing evidence

of the Kingdom. You're seeing proof of the

Kingdom. Yet, you don't know where it's

coming from. You don't fully understand what

this kingdom is really all about.

You haven't fully grasp, what I'm really coming to bring.

And so, we understand that the degree of the Kingdom that we

Understand either enhances or limits the capacity of the

Kingdom Life we live. I'll say that again, the degree

of the Kingdom that we understand, either enhances or

limits the capacity of the Kingdom Life that we live.

And as we saw with Nicodemus, this is what happens is where we

misunderstand something or where we fail to understand, we

usually will redefine. I'm going quickly because this

is a recap, you should already have this.

Yesterday, what I failed to understand I usually will

redefine, I'll dumb down, I'll lower it standard.

I'll bring it to something that I can understand.

And what we do essentially is we make God into something that

looks like us, so rather than rising to his level rising, to

his standard rising, to what he intended, the original meaning,

or the original purpose of something, we lower it down to

our Our standard and we serve a God.

That looks a lot like us sounds. A lot like us responds.

A lot like us when God is calling us to rise, this is

Kingdom. What kingdom rise?

We are rising up, we are coming to a higher level.

We are trying to discern. The original intent in the thing

is, is when I lower the standard, I compromised, the

purpose, when I lower the standard, I compromised, the

purpose. If the kingdom is something that

already looks like what I'm living.

Then, it's not really the kingdom.

We're building our own kingdom. We're creating our own kingdom

rather than entering his kingdom.

He says, unless one is born again, you cannot see the

kingdom born again, to Jesus meant something a lot different,

than what Born Again, has come to mean to you.

And I, in society, and culture in American Christianity, and

the world we live in today, born again, is just simply entrance.

This is what this is. Let me just give you an example

and give you a picture and imagery of what this is.

So the Holy Spirit, the Bible tells us that none comes into

the Kingdom, on our own that we are drawn by the spirit of God.

And so this, this leader this guide, the Holy Spirit, he

brings us to the kingdom, brings us to the entrance of the

Kingdom shows us this great Kingdom.

Here's the entrance. And then he says, hey, let me

show you around. Let me show you what faith looks

like. Let me show you what healing

looks like. Let me show you what?

Real Deliverance looks like. Let me show you what Redemption

looks like. Let me show you what Prosperity

looks like. Let me show you what this

kingdom is all about. And this is what we do.

We say. That's okay, I'll take it from

here. And we start journeying through

this Kingdom without the guy, the Holy Spirit leading us, and

guiding us into what all truth. If the Holy Spirit can get us to

the kingdom, he can get us through the kingdom and he's not

just in our life to get us to the door and then leave us

there. He's in there to get us to the

door. As they let me show you what

faith looks like in the Kingdom. Let me show you what healing

looks like in the Kingdom. Let me show you what their liver

and slight looks like in the Kingdom, he should be guiding us

throughout all. And so what happens is is we

understand principles without the context.

It's like you're in this house and you're going room to room

and I'm journeying through these rooms the we miss the forest for

the trees. We start hugging trees.

We start hugging elements principles of the Kingdom

without the context of the Kingdom, without the big picture

of the Kingdom. We're missing the context, and

in Matthew Chapter 13, Jesus describes this Kingdom as a

Matthew 13 · chapter mention

mystery in verse 10, the disciples came and said to him.

Why do you speak to them in parables?

In verse 11, he answered and said unto them because it has

been given to you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of

Heaven, meaning this it can be right in front of you and you

still miss it. Nicodemus can name the evidence

He could describe the proof, the tangible visible results of the

Kingdom, but miss where the results were coming from.

I hear the awesome teaching. I see the amazing signs.

I see the walking on the water in the multiplying of food in

the casting out of demons, and the raising of the dead and the

delivering all the things that Jesus did tangibly.

But yet still miss the kingdom, that was right in front of him

crucified. I murder killed the very one

that they thought they were looking for and guys were still

doing this today. We're still doing this today.

And we think we understand principles, but without the

context will find that we will actually destroy both will

destroy both know. He says it's a mystery.

Do you? It's been given to know the

mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.

But to them it has not been given in Mark, chapter 2, I want

Mark 2 · chapter mention

to jump over here. Because I want to just give you

my, I've got, like 10 minutes to do all this.

So in Mark chapter 2, I want to just give you a personal.

Mark 2 · chapter mention

Reflection, if you will. Mark 2:21.

Mark 2:21

No one sews. A piece of unshrunk cloth on an

old garment or else. The new piece pulls away from

the old and The Tear is made worse.

And no one puts new wine. Everyone say, new wine into old

wineskins or else, the new wine burst the wineskins, the wine is

spilled and the wineskins are ruined.

Look at this statement, but new wine.

Every once a new one must be put into new wineskins.

Everyone say new wineskins, say new wine, say new wineskins, 15

years ago, 14 years ago, when the kingdom message, first came,

Pastor Earle prepared us initially, ministering a message

on the Unseen. Principal In an effort for us to

be prepared, in our minds to receive something new.

He did this in the month of May and then in the month of June,

he released the kingdom, he wanted to release the kingdom

when he received the kingdom and the Lord told him, no, you've

got to get it in you first and then you've got to prepare the

church for this message. And of course, we don't know all

the backstory. We just know for the month of

May, he's ministering a series on the Unseen principle.

Seeing the Unseen bringing the Unseen into the sink.

And he's preparing us. I remember on June 9th, was it

June 9 2013 7, 2009. I played drums for worship and

then my wife and I we were the children's, Pastor is here, and

so we were serving that morning and so I did not hear the

initial message, the initial release.

We just had the one service, we're serving back with the

elementary students. Like we did just about every

week and so we went to lunch with Pastor Marcus and Pastor

Meredith. We were Arby's right over here

on 312. And I said, I got to hear share

with me. What?

What? Because service obviously went

super long longer than usual. Gotta gotta clarify that.

It already goes long, it went longer than usual plus Pastor.

Open minute been building up to this for a long time and I'm

thinking, man, I got to know what was the release?

Well, was this message, what's this thing that he released?

And so, they're explaining it to us at the Kingdom.

The kingdom in, these are all the thing about this message

was, it was all things that we had.

I'd heard before it was all words that were heard, before

I've heard Kingdom, I've said Kingdom, he just said it a year,

prior, he ministered a message on the government of God, we

understood principles without the context.

And something can lie. You know, what about the

kingdom? I understand Kingdom, the

kingdom, the kingdom, the kingdom, we know the kingdom of

God and pass the market is like, no, no, this is different.

There's emphasis on thinking, and then of course, we didn't

just stop there. Then we started Kingdom Crusades

where we actually took a Thursday Friday, Saturday just

to preach Kingdom principles. A my personal story just to be a

little transparent was for about six months.

I struggled. It's about June to December,

maybe not a full six months. It was June 27, 2010 Burr, June,

July August, September for those four months.

I struggled. I didn't struggle with the

message of the Kingdom. a struggling with the emphasis of

the Kingdom, the word that I would use was there was an

obsession about the kingdom, and I could not reconcile it, and

I'm thinking number one, This is all bent.

Now, I cannot, I cannot explain away.

The kingdom message. I'm struggling with its emphasis

and I'm struggling with and and Marcus.

And I are having conversations, Josh clay back there, we're

having conversations. I had some conversation with and

am reading the Myles, Munroe books.

And I'm trying to download this as we said yesterday as

information. And the number one struggle I

had was you know my testimony is I was raised in church I was

raised in good churches, I was raised in word churches.

I went to Rhema Bible Training Center.

I said under brother Hagin ice at her side under some of the

greatest Bible teachers this planet has ever seen and I'm

struggling on the inside, almost angry, like why have I never

seen this before? Why am I strong?

What Myles Munroe. I grew up listening and watching

Myles. Rook.

That's not the first time I heard Myles.

Munroe. Not the first time I heard his

name not first time. I'd been around us.

I mean he's a minister from the Bahamas.

I'm not know what he preaches. I know what he believes.

But there was this Kingdom lens. This Kingdom framework that I

was struggling to grasp and get a hold of And in September of

that year, Pastor Earle took us as staff to a local church here

in town in a minister. Oh, very well-known Minister

came. It was a very small group.

Maybe 150 200 people wasn't that many people there?

And he ministered on the kingdom, and he opened with this

verse right here in Mark chapter 2 He opened with no one puts new

Mark 2 · chapter mention

wine into old wineskins, or else, the new wine burst the

wineskins, the wine is spilled and the wineskins are ruined new

wine. Must be put into new wineskins.

And when he ministered from this position, I got it.

I wasn't struggling with the wine.

I was struggling with the wineskin.

I had them reversed. I had been trying to put the

kingdom in everything I knew. I had to take everything I knew

and I had to put it into the kingdom.

I was trying to take an Essence. We've already said it.

I don't know how many times just in these last several days.

You hear us say it a lot here and Interfaith Church.

The kingdom of God is not a subject.

If this is just a subject to you, if this is just four days

of focusing on the kingdom than, that's all you're going to get

out of it. But the kingdom must be the

entire theme of every subject. Every principle it is the

context through which every subject has to be viewed.

It is the framework. It is the lens.

Through which now I view. Every other principle In this

passage these two words but new wine must be put into new

wineskins in the English. The word new is the same word

new in the Greek. It is not In the Greek, the

first word, but new wine means new as in brand new.

New in age. But the word new with new

wineskins is not the word new as in new, as in age, as in length

of time. It is new as in the word

renewed, fresh The the word renewed, meaning it is been

there the whole time, but now I have to receive it as new

renewed. Anybody know, a verse that talks

about the renewing of something The wine skin is been there the

whole time, but it's has to become new to me.

Otherwise, I will destroy the new wine, this new word, this

new message, I will lose both the wine and the wine skin.

The Amplified reads it this way. No one puts new wine into Old

wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst

the skins and the wine is lost and the bottles are destroyed.

The new wine is to be put in new fresh wine skins.

This is why Jesus, when he came to minister, the very first

words, he said found in Matthew 4:17 from that time.

Matthew 4:17

Jesus began to preach and say, repent.

For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

When you see, when you begin to receive the kingdom message, you

now have to go back and re-evaluate, everything you ever

knew, or thought you knew. It all has to be put back

through the filter of the Kingdom.

We've been doing this in our church.

Now for the last I don't know, six or seven weeks.

We've been redefining. Redefining principles in the

word of God that are basic Elementary truths that.

We thought we knew just as Believers and putting them

through the wineskin of the kingdom of God.

We've been ministering on topics, such as lordship.

We explain the difference between Savior and Lord

righteousness. The word of God.

I just took two weeks to talk about the law. of the word and

the constitution of the word, The word of God in the lens of

the kingdom of God, because we all know what the Bible is.

But when you understand that, the Bible is the law of God.

As in a nation, as, in a government, it's a constitution

that declares to you your rights in your privileges, the

aspirations of the king, for his citizens, it changes, everything

guy. It makes everything makes sense.

And it's a mystery unless it's revealed.

I tried to receive the kingdom as information, and I got locked

up. Time I received the kingdom as

Revelation and doors opened up. And he says that when you want

to hear when you have the fervency, the urgency, the

intentionality to hear you will have abundant Clarity.

But when you don't want to hear eventually you will refuse to

hear. And I've watched people over the

years over the last fourteen fifty years, 15 years, as they

received the word of the king, some of them they lock up

immediately don't want anything to do with it.

And I'll explain why in just a second, some of them receive an

immediately with joy. That's why Matthew 13.

The parable of the sower, is the Paramount Parable for every

other Parable that you'll ever receive.

Because it shows you, how people receive it, some receive it with

joy, persecution comes because of the Kingdom, they immediately

follow the would fall away. We watched people leave in the

following months. After the kingdom message was

declared, isn't that true? Not locked up on the kingdom?

Note that some got locked up initially when it was given some

received it with joy and then we're like, whoa, wait a minute,

I'm being persecuted and being question of being challenged

others walked away because of deceitfulness of riches and

their own agendas and ideas. And then, of course, there's the

last where they received it. They applied it, they understood

it and it became fruitful in their lives.

There's two mentalities that the kingdom of God will always buck

up against that will always come to.

That are a direct contrast and will always conflict with the

kingdom. Number one is the American

mentality. If you have an American American

Democratic mentality, the kingdom of God, will destroy

disrupt will ruin, everything you thought, freedom, and

liberty, and Independence, was it destroys it every time my

husband. Errol even make the statement in

1991 when he came to the US and started delivering, he told the

lord, I can't even, I can't get this message across to

Americans. They enjoy too many freedoms.

They enjoy too many Liberties. They enjoy too much Democratic

personal say, I get to vote in and vote out, and I get to have

a decision making process and the King doesn't invite you into

that process. You get to enjoy the benefits of

the king because he declares over you.

What you need, he knows what you need knows, what you don't need,

and you learn to just fully submit to the King and his word.

The second mentality is religion.

Religious. You know, I felt like Nicodemus.

Jesus makes a statement later on in that conversation.

He says, how are you a respected Jewish teacher not able to

comprehend this? It's, he's asking it

sarcastically, meaning all your information will not help you.

And I had to come to the realization, my upbringing, my

background, the phenomenal word. I've sat under going to Bible

School having a diploma. Those were not the

qualifications for receiving the kingdom.

There were the qualification for receiving.

The kingdom was a heart that says yes, it's what Pastor Ramon

just got done showing us with obedience if You want to hear

the voice of God? Learn to say yes, before he

speaks. If you're waiting to hear what

he says to determine, if I will obey or not, then you're going

to close yourself off to the revelation of the word of God.

It is a guarantee you will flood with abundance when you say,

yes. Yes, Lord, your servant is

listening. Is he yielded heart?

Because we said this yesterday Mysteries are not discovered

through information. They are discovered through

revelation. That's how you receive a

mystery. That's how you have Mysteries

opened up to you. That's how you see things that

everybody else is missing. Everybody else is reciting

verses and quoting pastors and quoting teachers.

And they're listening guys, the people that are missing the

kingdom. They go to church every weekend,

the guys that are missing the kingdom, listen to podcast, the

guys that are listening to Kingdom promote books and, and

retweet tweets, and Greek quote on Instagram and they, but

they're missing the kingdom message, and it's right in

front. One of them, everybody says we

want to move of God. Well, does anybody want the god

of the move? Do you just want the results of

the kingdom? Do you want the kingdom that

invites? You to Bree a participant and

produce the results of the Kingdom?

There's a difference and if you are religious then you will be

relegated to a bystander. Standing aside applauding a

miracle yet not change by one yet, not able to participate in

produce the fruit and results of the kingdom of God.

And that's what Jesus Is Telling Nicodemus.

Here he says, you can attest to the Miracles, the signs, the

Wonders, the evidence, the proof, but yet, you don't even

you. You see the effects of the wind

and how it's blowing, but you don't know where it comes from.

You're reduced to the Natural tangible results.

I don't know about you, but I want to be a part of the Kingdom

about. I want to produce the results.

Jesus is trying to invite us into the process.

That doesn't just allow us to sit back, and we have a country

that's crying out for Revival. I don't want to move of God, I

want to be a move of God. I want to be a part of what he's

doing. And that's what this is all

about. The mystery is right in front of

me. So let's go back to Matthew

Matthew 13 · chapter mention

chapter 13. Matthew 13, the new King James.

Jesus makes this statement for whoever has to him, more will be

given and he will have abundance, but whoever does not

have even what he has will be taken away from him today.

I want to focus on the emphasis of the posture of the heart.

The posture of the heart because this is, this is where people

get locked up and trapped. And the kingdom has a way of

revealing someone's heart, better than any other message,

your heart will get revealed. Your heart will will, will come

to the surface? What's in?

You will come to the surface when the kingdom message.

It's that confronted. That's why we make such bold

statements. If you've been here at anchor,

fake church or even about officer any location, probably,

for any length of time, we make some in-your-face statements,

Jesus never preached one, message about being born again,

Jesus never preached the message about going to the Cross.

Jesus, never preached, the message about dying and going to

heaven. Why do we make these such

confrontational disruptive? Stay because we've got to get

the Mind switched over quickly. You cannot ease your way into

this Kingdom. You have to blast your way.

You've got to shut things down. We've got to unravel things.

The kingdom comes to confront, Jesus came disrupting things

disrupting measures and disrupting ideas.

He says you, say, you say, if you sleep with another woman

that you've committed adultery, I say that.

If you lust after a woman in your heart, He's disrupting

things. He's dismantling man's ways and

man's ideas and man's agendas and the kingdom dismantles.

It It tears, these things apart and we have to be

confrontational. We have to be be able in love,

of course, but the posture of the heart is the key.

I'll make this statement. What you treasure you attract.

What you treasure? you attract because he says, to

him, who has more will be given and he will have abundance, but

whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away.

Therefore, I speak to them in Parables, because seeing they,

do not see, and hearing, they do not hear nor do, they

understand. Now, this is what he says.

In verse 14 in them, the prophet, the prophecy of Isaiah

is fulfilled. Hearing you will hear and shall

not understand seeing We'll see and not perceive for the hearts

of this. People have what grown dull.

That's not treasuring, that's not valuing, that's not

honoring. And the honor and the value and

the treasuring is not taking place by attending church week

in and week out. It's determined by the heart

because you can attend church week in and week out with the

wrong heart, the wrong posture, not treasuring valuing, and

honoring and miss. What's being delivered?

Now, we've have a posture of the heart to do with.

He says, their ears are hard of hearing their eyes.

They have closed lest they should see with their eyes and

hear with their ears lest they should understand with their

hearts and turn so that I should heal them.

But blessed are your eyes for they see.

Blessed, are your ears for they hear watch this in verse 17

assuredly? I say to you that many prophets

and righteous men desired, everyone say, desired desired to

see what you see and did not see it to hear what you hear.

Ear and did not hear it. There are people that value.

What we sleep through, what we Overlook, what we miss, we value

the wrong, things, we're aware of the wrong things.

We desire the wrong things. And Jesus is trying to get to

the value system. He's using this Parable.

He said to us, it has been given to you.

It has been given but to them, it has not you value it

differently than they do values. Always determined by investment.

Why did they qualify in the others didn't?

Because they left everything to follow, Jesus, they left home.

They love father, and mother they left Comfort.

They left convenience. Come on, all the things we

talked about yesterday. It's too many church.

People that desire comfort and wonder why they're not seeing

the move of God, seeing the things of God because you're too

comfortable. Pastor Marcy in our prayer time

yesterday. Gave a call, get out of the

Comfort zones. Get disrupt these things.

Somebody needs to make a radical shift, Spirit soul and body

dismantling everything, you know.

You can have growth, or you can have comfort, but you cannot

have both. In the, in the Amplified.

Mashiro. We want to go.

Matthew Chapter 13, in the Amplified verse nine.

Matthew 13 · chapter mention

Actually, beginning at the end of the parable, he says this, he

who has ears to hear, let him be listening.

Let him consider and perceive and comprehend by hearing.

Look at all, that ears to hear let him be listening.

Let him consider and perceive and comprehend by hearing verse

11 in the Amplified says, and he replied to them to you.

It has been given to know the secrets and Mysteries.

Remember we said that a mystery is a secret thing or a hidden

thing? Jesus actually spoke in Parables

so that it would conceal, the truth from those that did not

want to know the truth. He was concealing it.

And something, concealed must be revealed.

But he's saying it in a way speaking it in a way that only

those that want to know, will know, meaning if you don't want

to know then you won't know. But the danger is, if you

continue to pass yourself in a position of that you won't know,

eventually you will refuse to know. even when there are

undeniable proofs right in front of you, watch this in in in John

John chapter 12 John chapter 12. John chapter 12 and verse 37.

John 12 · chapter mention John 12 · chapter mention John 12 · chapter mention

But although he had done so many signs before them, what does it

say? They did not believe in him.

Do we have that up there? Although he had done so many

signs before them? They did not.

See if I continue to remain in a posture of, I'm not giving

urgency. I'm not giving intention, I'm

not valuing honoring the word eventually, I'll move from a

position of not knowing to refusing to know.

I refuse to know, look at this in the passion translation, this

is crazy in the passion translation, verse 37, even with

the overwhelming, evidence of all the many signs and wonders

that Jesus had performed in front of them, his critics still

refused, you'll go from watching a miracle to critiquing a

miracle. Just a few verses earlier.

They asked for a sign. Show us another sign.

Show us another sign, he calls them an evil and adulterous

Generation all you want, is there, you know what adultery

means? Adultery means that I enjoy all

the benefits without the commitment.

I want the signs without the commitment to the kingdom.

I want the results without the commitment to the relationship

with the King. You just want signs.

You just want all the fun stuff without enjoying the with

without enduring. The commitment, the requirement

to see the signs that says, even with overwhelming evidence.

You don't have to turn there. You can just mark it down in

Mark, chapter 6, we mentioned this yesterday.

Mark 6 · chapter mention

The same thing happened. He began to teach in the

synagogue in his hometown Nazareth.

Where did this man? Get these things?

What is this wisdom that has been given to him?

How are these Miracles performed by his hands?

What they're watching all the results.

They're seeing all the evidence. They've got the proof right in

front of them, yet still become offended.

And say, isn't this? The carpenter, isn't this?

The son of Mary, the brother of James, or his sister's here with

us and they were offended by him.

A man, imagine watching a miracle and yet still becoming

offended by one. This is what happens when we

have no urgency and no value and no honor, That's What offense

is. Jesus even makes the statement.

A prophet is without honor in his own.

Hometown I get honored everywhere else but I come home.

And because you know me, you know, my background, you know,

you saw me grow up, I built your your bait your bed, in your

dining table because, you know, my family, you're

well-acquainted with my Humanity, you can't receive my

deity. And they were offended.

We'll talk about familiarity a little bit tomorrow. verse 6 of

that, Mark chapter 6 says he was amazed at their unbelief and it

Mark 6 · chapter mention

says this he goes around the Villages teaching Teaching, not

informing revealing but again, we know that Jesus doesn't

reveal the, he doesn't bring the pearls before the swine.

He doesn't give what is worth of great worth and of Great Value

in a way that it can be see. This is the thing.

If you squander it, if you let me say it, I got to say it the

right way. If you don't Steward the word,

you will squander the sign. Say that again, if you don't

Steward the word, you will eventually squander the sign.

If we don't value honor, the word of the Kingdom, we will

eventually waste the signs of the Kingdom.

A miracle is not going to make a difference with even the

Miracles. Jesus said that the Miracles are

what, confirming the teaching of the word.

It's all designed to point you back to the teaching, designed

to point you back to the word. We got people that are running.

After signs. Pastor Ramon just said, I need

another Revelation in the prophetic word, I need another

sign. I need another Revival bounce it

off. They have no value or honor for

the word. Word, they want to show.

They want to be entertained. They want to be performed too.

The words got to be Paramount. The word has got to be the

foundation of the Kingdom. All right, Matthew 13.

Let's keep looking through this. Back in the Amplified.

It's about the posture of the heart.

In verse 13, Matthew 13 verse 13 in the amplify.

Matthew 13:13

This is the reason that I speak to them in Parables because

having the power of seeing they do not see having the power of

hearing, they do not hear nor do they grasp and understand in

them is, is the process of fulfillment of the prophecy of

Isaiah? Which says you shall indeed here

and here, but never grasp and understand.

You shall indeed look and look but never receive in person.

Steve for this nation's, heart has grown gross, fat and dull

their ears, heavy and difficult of hearing their eyes.

They have tightly closed less, they see and perceive with their

eyes and hear and comprehend the sense with their ears grasp and

understand with their heart and turn in.

I should heal them, but blessed, happy fortunate, be envied.

Are your eyes because they do see And your ears because they

do here. Truly, I tell you many prophets

and righteous men men who are upright and in right standing

with God, yearn to see what you see and did not see it to hear

what you hear. It says the they yearned to see

yearned. God's do we understand the value

of what we have to sit in front of?

This is the same thing as repeated in Romans chapter 10.

Romans 10 · chapter mention

We know verse 17. Faith comes by hearing and

hearing by the word of God but look at it in the Amplified.

Look at it in the Amplified verse 17.

Faith comes by hearing what is told and what is heard comes by

the preaching of the message that came from the lips of

Christ. The Messiah himself.

Now, watch this in verse 18. Maybe many of us haven't

journeyed past that verse that, we all know, very familiar with

the verse 18 says. But I asked have they not heard?

indeed, they have Why is Jesus going to return and say, will I

find faith in the Earth? He says, indeed, they have for

the scripture says their voice that of nature bearing.

God's message has gone out to all the Earth, and their words,

to the far bounds of the world. Again, I ask that Israel.

Not understand. Did the Jews have no warning

that the gospel was to go forth to the Gentiles to all the Earth

First, there is Moses. Who says, I will make you

jealous of those who are not a nation with the foolish Nation,

I will make you angry. Then Isaiah is so bold as to say

quoting the same prophecy that Jesus just pointed us to I have

been found by those who did not seek me.

I have shown revealed myself to those who did not consciously,

ask for me, but of Israel. He says all day long.

I have stretched out my hands to a people.

Here it is unyielding and disobedient and self-willed to a

fault, finding contrarian contradicting people.

We saw that Paul said over in Ephesians that it is God's will

to make known to you. The Mysteries God is extending

his hand stretching forth, giving you every opportunity to

receive the revelation. We are not missing Revelation

because he's failing to produce it.

We are missing Revelation because we were failing to yield

to it. They passed a Ramon set me up

perfectly. I really don't even have that

much to say because of what he brought, it's the Disobedience

it's coming in with disobedient Hearts guys.

It's coming in with the, with the lack of yielded anise.

The posture of your heart has everything to do with what you

receive or don't receive, there's two ways you can come in

here. You can come in here saying,

what do I not yet know. Or you can come in saying what

do I already know? You know how many people go to

church? Only wanting to hear what they

already know. People will tell me this and

they say it in good intentions. I understand what they're

saying. And sometimes I'll correct them

and sometimes, I'll just let it go on, but they'll come in and

say, I love this church because you preach what I believe.

Wait until I preach. What you don't yet believe.

Wait, till I flip something on the head that you thought you

knew this like, oh, wait a minute, I don't know.

I mean, until you've had that in your heart until you've had that

mmm. Now, not there's, there's a

questioning that challenges God and there's a questioning that

says, I want to know more the bereans search the scriptures to

not to question. I don't know if Paul's really, I

don't know what this Peter guy is really.

No, they said man, we gotta dig in here.

We gotta find this for myself. I'm not going to believe this

because ER said it, I'm not gonna believe it because Paul

said, it not gonna believe it was Pastor Earle, said it not

gonna believe it because they said in a kingdom rise.

I gotta know this for myself, but there's a lot of Crest lot

of Christians. That only remain, as long as

they're agreed with, And they forced the word of God to bow to

their opinion, in their idea. Since the thing about the enemy,

if the enemy can't keep you from going to church, will get you to

do it for the wrong reasons. If you can't keep you from

reading the Bible, he'll get you to do it for the wrong reasons.

You can't keep you from praying, he'll get you to do it for the

wrong reasons and it's called religious activity and you end

up like Jesus talking to Nicodemus, how are you a

respected Jewish leader? How are you grown up in the word

of faith? How are you a Rhema Bible

College student? If we do not have Propensity to

continue to learn continue to know.

Continue to discover continue to be revealed to.

If you've come to the conclusion, I've learned it all

in, there's nothing else to discover, and I just want to

continue to live my life finding people that agree with what I

already know. Then you will not only put

yourself in a position where I won't know I'm putting my

position upon myself in a position.

I refuse to know and now I critique every person that I

hear I critique Even the Miracles, the evidence, I can't

deny the evidence but I disclaim the evidence.

I just made it very difficult for everybody interpreting to

somebody in this room and I apologize.

I just went super quick. But they're good at what they

do. It's the posture of the heart.

It's the yield Earnest, a yielded heart attracts, the

voice of God. But eventually a nun.

Yielded heart, he says, Unyielding disobedient.

I love this one self-willed. Meaning your will is higher than

his will. That's not your kingdom.

Come and your will be done. Many people only want God's

kingdom as long as it agrees with their will their agenda,

their opinion. And you find yourself seeing

undeniable proof and evidence and still staying, I don't know

that, I believe that. Denying the lordship of Christ.

So we have to address this issue.

We have to address this issue of valuing and honoring the word of

God. That's what Jesus is trying to

get us to. I want to read this to you in

Matthew Chapter 13, in the passion translation, Starting

Matthew 13 · chapter mention

with verse 10, his disciples approached Jesus and asked, why

do you always speak to people in these hard to understand a

parables? See, the hard to understand,

should invite you to want to understand.

But he refused. He later gives a parable here in

Matthew Chapter 13. He says, the kingdom of God is

Matthew 13 · chapter mention

like a treasure buried in the field.

And when the man discovers that they're at, there's treasure

goes and buys the whole field. Just to gain, access to the

treasure. I value it that much.

I value it that much. He explained, you've been given

the intimate experience of insight into the hidden

mysteries of the realm of Heavens Kingdom, and I love

that. Jesus said, Being Born Again, is

what allows you to see the kingdom to behold the kingdom to

experience the kingdom to become aware of the Kingdom.

We said yesterday, the born-again experience the Born

Again, life should be marked by Kingdom experience.

It's a discovery. It's a journey.

May we Never Close Our Hearts off for everyone who listens

with an open. Heart will receive here.

It is progressively. More revelation.

Until he has more. Does anybody want to have more

than enough Revelation? More than enough Clarity, more

than enough comprehension more than enough understand.

I want more than enough, not barely, not just cutting it, not

just a little bit. I want more than an adult ever

be satisfied with less than what God has provided for you, but

those who don't listen with an open teachable heart, even the

Standing that they think they have.

You ever met somebody that thinks they know?

That's one of the hardest things for me is when I'm listening to

someone have a conversation and I know they're getting

everything wrong. Y'all River he's dropped on a

conversation your life they are missing all those facts right

now. I know the answers and there you

know you're just you're biting y'all.

I want to interject right now and he they have no idea what

they're talking, you know? You just you want to step in and

be like, you don't have a clue. But they think they know and

man, they sound so bold. They sound so confident, it

sounds. So they are saying it as if it's

straight fact. It's like you have no clue what

you're saying right now. Those who think they know, Even

the understanding that they think they have will be taken

from them. That's why I teach the people

using Parables, because they think they're looking for truth

yet, because their hearts are unteachable, they never

discovered, although they will listen to me.

They will never fully perceive the message I speak.

The prophecy of Isaiah describes them perfectly, although they

listened carefully to everything, I speak.

They don't understand a thing. I say, hmm.

They look and pretend to see but their eyes of their hearts are

closed, the mines are dull and slow to perceive.

Their ears are plugged. In are hard of hearing and they

have deliberately shut their eyes to the truth.

Otherwise, they would open their eyes to see that open their ears

to hear that open their minds to understand.

They would turn to me and I would instantly healed them.

Blissful are your eyes for they see delighted are your ears for

they are open to hear all these things.

Many prophets and godly people yearned to see these days of

Miracles that you've been favored to see, they would have

given everything. Are you hearing the posture of

the heart that we need to receive the revelation of the

Kingdom? They would give everything to

hear the Revelation. You've been favored to here.

I'll close with this in 2020, my wife and I Were introduced to. a

very awesome thing that has, Become maybe, maybe not so great

of a habit in 2020, you know, everybody close down.

Nobody was had distant seeing and all this stuff.

And you couldn't just walk into a restaurant and go places and

so we started using a service called doordash doordash.

Now, I need doordash users in the house.

Jake, where you at? You better wave your hand at me

wherever you're at. Well, your dad already told on

you. Doordash.

I found the ease of when I'm hungry.

You know, used to there were levels to this thing.

If you're hungry, you get up and you prepare something to eat.

But then we ended up, you know, with restaurants, I'm hungry.

I don't want to make it myself, so I'll go to a restaurant and

have them although sit me down at a table and they'll, you

know, prepare it for me and I'll just enjoy, you know, just

eating the food. But then there's another level

called fast food because food wasn't enough, we had to find a

way to make it fast quick convenient.

I don't have time to go sit down at a restaurant.

I'm hungry, but not hungry enough to go.

Sit in a restaurant, I have I'm hungry enough to drive through a

place in. My car order it without even

getting out of my car but then we were introduced to a whole

new level in 2020 called doordash.

I can literally sit at home. I'm hungry.

I don't even have to move, I don't have to get in my car and

drive to a restaurant. I don't have to get in my car

and drive to a fast food place. I don't have to even get out of

my chair from my phone. I can order in my pajamas.

Coffee breakfast dinner, all that stuff.

The only effort I had to give. Was to get up out of that chair,

walk to the front door. There's times.

I've literally thought, could they just walk it in to where

I'm at right now? Just, I've left the door

unlocked. Come in the front.

Drop it in my life. And I'm afraid in these last

days, we've created doordash disciples, I'm hungry enough as

long as someone else prepares it.

Brings it to me. I'll tell you exactly what I

want. How I want it the way I want it.

But I'm not hungry enough to get up and make it myself.

I'm not hungry enough to devote my time and my energy and my

effort to. I'm not hungry enough.

If I've got to actually invest some time in this and I'm not

hungry enough. If I've actually got to put some

work and he says, there are people, they would have given

everything to hear the Revelation, you are favored to

hear favorite to receive May we not be those that it has to be

prepared and made up and done, just right.

And if it's not delivered, the way we want it within the

confines of how he wanted within the timeframe that we wanted

within the Avenue that we wanted within the facility that we want

it within the location that we want it.

Through the man of God, that we want it.

The way they do it. I like loud preachers.

I like quiet preachers. I like teachers.

I like Apostles. I like of anxious.

I like loud music. I like soft music.

Why do we got to do with it? When we get rid of our

preferences, get rid of our opinions, get rid of our ideas,

get rid of, I got to have it my way.

This is not Burger King. This is Kingdom.

Come, your will be done and I align my values with your will

father. We thank you that your will for

us is great. It's mighty it is to our

benefit. Is that our best interest and we

do not require you to bow to our standards, we bow our standards

to your will to your plan to your purpose in Jesus name.
