Like the Father - Kingdom Business

Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith.

Message podcast from st. Augustine Florida.

Now enjoyed this message. Well, tonight, I want to talk to

you because I'm not preaching on love, but I'm not going to lie.

This is a little bit of a setup. So what I'm going to preach

tonight, probably going to show back up somewhere because I

cannot do love till next week. So I have to preach and I said

dad what do I say? It's just one service because

I'm really ready to preach on love and he says you just say

this. he said, like, the father, Now look what Jesus said in Luke

Luke 2:49

2:49. He said, why do you seek me?

Did you not know that I must be about?

My father's business. As a pastor for in this

location, 18 years pioneering. This church started it right but

been in Ministry for almost three decades now.

Okay, one thing that is becomes quite grieving to my ears is to

hear Christian cliche. Okay, and that is I'm a follower

of Jesus. But they don't even know what

Jesus did. They don't even know who he is,

other than he died on the cross and Rose from the grave.

They don't know what he sounds like.

For many of them, he's this mystical figure, to be honest

with you, that just comes in swoops in and takes care of a

problem when the problems really there, and then sweeps away.

Now, you need to understand this in the world, the majority of

Believers are going to function, like most documented, Covenant

children are, and I'm told my, in the Bible, we have a whole

history book of Covenant children, and how they function

with the god that's not in the earth that they can't see based

upon the spirit and that is when Trouble Comes.

They go to him. He that is going to be the

majority of the children of God in the earth, unfortunately.

Even today. When tragedy hits we go to God.

Now I'm be honest with you, it was I was excited, I didn't see

it. Personally, Pastor, Mark text

me. I was away from the TV

concerning the Monday Night Football game.

All right, but because that athlete at 24 was in a condition

that no one can help. There's still an awareness that

somebody outside us can. And those that believed did what

should be done in tragedy, cry out.

I mean, I saw a clip, my wife show me clip today of literally

on ESPN there, praying, Now, they didn't say his name.

They said it is name. Now I know who his name is, but

not everybody on ESPN, it's listening knows the name.

So we need to say today. Just say the name.

Okay, Mike, but I applaud at MIT, at least and that

particular athlete. This is how people respond in

tragedy. He had a foundation for his

hometown to raise toy to get toys because he was in poverty.

He had raised three thousand dollars We see this incident

within 24 hours, 5 billion dollars was raised.

Now at the end of the day, the foundation is going to do it for

a good cause but my oh my and I'm like the guy has to die on

the field to get the money. The vision and the purpose

wasn't enough, a tragedy had to show up.

He basically has to die. Come back, die again and now

he's in critical condition. So I know those are guilt

offerings. Because all the world feels

guilty about things going on in their lives.

Now there's nothing wrong. I've know nothing about the

individual, I applaud again that at least our nation.

Once again again, when 9/11 hit we're going to pray.

I mean when tragedy we gonna pray, you know, mass shooting

out of school. We gonna pray all of a sudden we

I mean, why don't we do? Think we have to understand that

we got to get a remnant of us that know who we are and

function in the father's business.

All the time and not wait till tragedy shows up.

Because when you're about the father's business, we can

actually thwart some things even To help the process he meant.

And I pray he recovers and we may never know the truth of what

happened in the first place. And honestly, whatever.

I mean, it's his own personal medical issue.

I don't need to know, I just pray that there's something

there that the Lord definitely would but at the end of the day

that's between him and God. Now, right, and people are

interceding, I get it and we pray for the family but you

know, there are plenty of people that Are having tragedies.

I mean you know how many murders are taking place right now.

Right now you're not many people are going to die tonight.

I mean there's a left going on in Chicago right now and

Detroit. Where's the vigils?

Perspective. Good news, is our nation still

knows. There is something bigger

outside them, but the church has not done a great job in the US.

To demonstrate what Jesus did. And that's because we want to go

to heaven. And the Lord really wants to

keep us in the planet. For a purpose, because Heavens,

not what, we're trying to gain sonship is what we're trying to

gain, right? So again, let's look at this

Luke 2:49 and he said to them. Now, Jesus is a youth.

Luke 2:49

Okay. He's not an adult at this time.

And as, you know, they went into town and Joseph, and Mary

thought he was with relatives. So when they were all leaving,

they thought he was with someone else and they get three days in,

and realize, Jesus is not around.

So then have to go back to town and they're looking all over the

place for him and find him in the synagogue.

Now he's in the synagogue with the, you know, those that were

teachers of the law and he's explaining to them.

What the scripture means and they are blown away, okay?

Now that tells us then Jesus was a studier of scripture.

I'm a follower of Jesus, Jesus studied scripture.

So if you're a follower of Jesus, the first thing you have

to do is you have to study scripture, because Jesus

literally says that he found himself in Scripture, it was as

he was reading the word, he began to realize, that's me, I

am this. They're talking about me.

He is the The man who knew no sin who became saying he is the

Son of God. He had the he he was without sin

in that timeframe. There was a opportunity for him

to have scripture no issue. He had no sin context.

Although when I say that he was tempted on all accounts like us

but his his life was alive so he could understand the word.

And begin to find himself and he studied it and he knew it.

As a teenager and are teenagers are very proficient at

Tick-Tock. But we're follower Jesus.

Are you hearing me, okay. So Jesus says didn't, you know

that I'd be about my father's business.

Well, what's the father's business?

When that be a good question to ask.

What is the father's business? I mean, we have so many

assumptions going on in the church today that we're assuming

we know exactly what's going on. And I have come to find out.

There are just some really very basic things that will cause you

to be absolutely devastating for the kingdom of darkness and a

champion for God. But the problem is it's just not

glamorous. There's no glamour about.

It doesn't fit the American mold of what church should be.

But God is not concerned about that.

God's concerned about his way of communicating demonstrating his

kingdom. And Jesus is the example yet, we

call ourselves followers are, you know, the church in general

and say I'm followers of Christ, but we don't do what Jesus did.

So Jesus obviously was a study of scripture.

We know this because when he was tempted of the devil, what could

he say it is written? So we know how Jesus attacks the

devil he doesn't cry. He never once prayed to the

father to get him off the mount the we'll get him out of the

Wilderness, he never did that, he never said, no father don't

you see? He's here talking to me, you see

what he's doing to me? Will you get him out of my way?

I mean people pray like that. Oh Lord, we got this prom Lord,

just remove the problem. Lourdes like man, if he has some

scripture in your mouth right now, you could take care of that

problem. Because again, when you say his

words, he an accident it's his power doing it but he's not

doing it to you. Say something again, let me

bring it down to bury Simplicity because this is not cough rocket

science, okay? This is not complex when we

became born again, all of the power to forgive.

You of all your wrongdoing has already been paid for by the

blood of Jesus that been poured out on a mercy seat.

Heaven, yet, it stays, in its power position, not active in

your life until you. Release some words that the

Lord, through the holy spirit says, You must do in order for

the power to manifest. You Must Believe in Your Heart

confess with your mouth, that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Now it was your mouth, your faith, you're releasing.

That then caused God to get involved with that word and

cause your spirit man that was dead to be driven out of your

body and put a brand new spirit on the inside of you.

Then the Holy Ghost came and showed up on if the inside of

you and says you are a child of God.

Hallelujah. Now, it's a child of God.

Heaven or Earth doesn't matter. I'm the child of the king.

But the power did not happen. Until I did the word.

Till I believed it and said it. Now I didn't even have to

understand it. I just believe I mean, how can I

can't even comprehend how blood from another human being.

Over 2,000 years ago, has the capacity in another realm, on a

mercy, C be able to cause the spirit that was dead and could

not talk to God be ripped up out of this skin suit and get a

whole new one. And how that whole little

Exchange took place. I couldn't see it.

Although I was there, I felt it. Now when I say I felt that I

didn't feel like suck up out of my body, right?

And then the next one came in. I'm like I'm Different.

No. I mean, it was like I'm

Different. I mean, it was so quick.

I mean, like a moment, the twinkling of an eye.

So to save us so quick aside, dude, I know I'm Different.

I am different now. Look the same on the outside and

my thinking sure is still pretty jacked up, right.

But I know I am different and man, if somebody came in and

shot me right now, I'd be present with the Lord.

I know that I don't have no guilt.

I'm so I'm so light now. Even though I way to say the

guilt was gone, the shame was gone.

Right? I mean, it's like amazing.

Then the work started. Hallelujah.

Amen. Because Jesus is without sin but

had to study Jesus had to speak. Okay, let's go on.

So he's about his father's business.

Will watch this father's business.

His father's business is really easy for us to determine okay,

it's not complicated. Let's go on to Luke chapter 4

Luke 4 · chapter mention

Army, John chapter 14 will start in verse 6, John chapter 14,

John 14 · chapter mention John 14 · chapter mention

start in verse 6. Jesus said to them, I am The way

the truth and the life. No one comes to the father, but

through me, I love this statement because Jesus doesn't

make things complicated. Well, how do you know that

Jesus? The only way he said it.

He said broad is the way Narrows away.

Albania is, so you're so narrow-minded.

Thank God. Thank God.

Thank God. I mean, it doesn't take, I mean,

if there was like this huge where do we get in at?

But then you see this one skinny little, ah, that must be it.

It's like a straight line. I mean, God, just draws a

straight line. Here it is.

He takes out all of the issues that make it complicated.

So I am the way, not a way, he's not away, he's the way the, he's

the truth because truth is not words alone.

Truth is a spirit so person. Okay.

He's the life, which means, if you're not with him, you're not

living. Even if you're breathing.

And no one comes to the father but through me if you had known

me he says you would have known my father.

Also for now you know him and have seen him now Philip and we

know Philip had some challenges Philip said to him Lord show us

the father and it is enough again.

It's Jesus like wow. Okay.

Verse 9. Jesus said how have I been so

long with you and yet you have not come to know me.

Philip That sounds like a little frustration.

Now that doesn't mean it's on God.

He's just like seriously. Me, how long I've been with you,

Philip, and you can't figure this thing out.

Really. Wow.

He goes on to say this them. He says, he who has has seen me,

has seen the father. How can you say show us the

father? Do you not believe that I am in

the father and the father is noticed that now.

Do you not Then I'm in the father and the father is what in

me the words that I say to you I do not speak on my own

initiative but the father abiding in me.

Does his work believe me that I am in the Father?

The father is in me otherwise believe because of the works

themselves. Understand Jesus the way he

lived and the Bible says he was full of grace.

So apparently Jesus. I didn't understand his own

Doctrine. Because most church today, the

minute, you're in Grace, you're out of Works, yet.

Jesus like you don't believe me. Believe the So, there is Works

associated with Grace. Grace doesn't mean we do nothing

because we couldn't do nothing. Grace means you couldn't do

nothing, guess what? Now you can do something.

Right? I mean it's like someone

unemployed, right? They don't have a job, you know.

I have no money and you say, okay, fine.

You're hired now you're an employee and you get up.

And then they're at like, well, I can't, you're employed now.

You do have you can't keep saying what you were when you

were unemployed. Your employee.

Obviously, when I was outside the kingdom, there's nothing

that I can do to be right with God.

But the blood brought me in, and now I can be right with God and

do like Jesus did, which means Jesus, let's go on and read it,

you know, just so we won't get. Don't throw too many things at

me right now, he says this. He says, believe the works

themselves verse 12. Truly, truly, I say to you.

He who believes in me? The works that I do, he will do

also. What did Jesus say, you're going

to do? You going to have some works?

And Greater Works than these. He will do cuz I go to the

father, And the minute we reduce the Bible to just telling people

that they need, Jesus to save them.

So when they die, they go to heaven.

We reduce the whole scripture to every other religion on the

planet where you going to go when you die.

Which at that point it's like well maybe Hinduism is right?

Because we're asking the same question where you going to go

when you die? Maybe Buddhism is correct

because we're asking the same question, where you gonna go

when you die, because there's something we have to do here, to

determine what's going to happen.

There. But the Lord's like I'm not

asking you the question where you going to go when you die?

I'm asking you do you want to become a son now, so I can come

and live in you and do something in you.

And demonstrate to the rest of the people that we already

connected. And I don't have to get you out

of there. I mean, seriously, how many

people in this building right now thinks that if Jesus Christ

came back to the planet started walking around, somebody could

take him out? Anyone.

Do we consider him the most powerful man on the planet?

If God the father came down, do we think anyone can take him

out? Will he be in a navigate this

situation? No problem.

Then why do we think we can cause this Christ in you?

You have the third person of the godhead.

So, there's nothing going on in the planet today that we cannot

navigate because we have God on the inside of us.

In fact, description is what can man do to you.

In fact, Jesus said don't even be afraid of somebody kills.

You don't be afraid of that. He said, what you need to be

afraid of is the one who can cast into the Lake of Fire.

What happens to be my daddy? Amen.

Hallelujah, I'm already living eternal life.

I'm leaving eternal life. Now I'm around sin because the

world still in a fallen State, and they're still centered, but

I'm living eternal life. He men.

Now I'll get more disconnected from the effects of sin in the,

the atmosphere sin as we continue to progress and it's

going to be far better. There's no doubt about it, but

at the end of the day, I'm alive unto God.

God lives in me. I talked with him, he talks with

me, I can say, things believe act and God can demonstrate

through my life. I mean, really, what are we

waiting on? Jesus, understood this person.

I'm about I'm doing the father's business.

He goes on and says, in verse 3, 13, whatever you ask in my name,

I will do it. So that the father may be

glorified in the son, if you ask me anything in my name, I will

do it. Verse 15, if you love me, You'll

keep my Commandments one translates.

You'll keep my word? Well, why is that important?

Because Jesus himself said in verse 10 he says I the words I

say to you I do not speak on my own initiative.

You know what the father's business is yet?

John chapter 10. Let's start in verse 30 and John

John 10 · chapter mention John 10 · chapter mention

chapter 10 starting in verse 30. It says this I and the father

are one, you know there's an expression chip off the old

block. Right?

That's like the sun is just like the father, right?

Contra John kentrell y'all know who's here with our church

unfortunately back years ago I think it was 2005 6 somewhere in

those years. His brother and father died on

the same night. His brother was a police officer

and his father was riding along and he got a call and he went to

turn around and he was flying down the road and a car pulled

out. And to avoid it, he went out of

the way and it fell into a ditch that was deep and they instantly

died. So John, because I work with him

a healty, he calls me and he says, Pastor, I want you to do

the funeral. Now, I've never met his father

or brother ever. I'm said sure man.

I mean it's tragic, this is back in Oklahoma when he was living

there. So, you know, I flew out met

with the family and, you know, ask them questions because, you

know, I'm doing a funeral for two individuals, I don't know.

The only person I know is John I never met his mom.

Sister, nobody family. Nothing welcomes to find out,

bro. Pastor Hagen, his wife Lynette,

her brother. Was related to the family.

So when the funeral comes on which he's a police officer that

died. So this is packed house.

I mean I'm going in the funeral you know per session and there's

people lined up along the road. I'm like wow Lord I need your

help, you know, because I'm doing a funeral first.

A couple people I personally do not know and so I'm up on it and

Pastor, hey can walk in. I'm like, wow, I'm preaching a

funeral in front of Pastor Hagen.

Now, his whole staff was there, you know, I mean, I'm newly, you

know, graduated just five years ago so I'm like you know you're

like man you sure. Do you sure want to hope the

president of your University hopes?

You don't flop on this deal when you have no idea.

How about the individuals and both caskets are out.

So you know, I'd been listening and there was you know, things

that was happening seeing and stuff and I'll never forget

because I had nothing. I mean, I'm sitting on the

platform. Nothing Thank God for the Holy

Ghost. Now I'm a man of Faith so I can

thrive in these situations because at the end the day I

know God will not fail so you know I don't get anxious.

Like I don't have nothing on. I'm like Lord I trust you I

trust you I trust you. And and and it was time for me

to get up, right? And then there was you know some

oh how do you say it things you just have to do you know I can't

think of the word right now. But anyway we did those

particular elements but now it's time for me to minister and when

I got up to minister the Lord says if you've seen the son,

you've seen the father Because that's really what I heard.

I mean, honestly, that son was just like his dad.

And so, I preach that and you'd have thought that I knew them

personally and everybody thought I was intimately acquainted with

them. But that's the Holy Ghost,

right? Thank God for the Holy Ghost,

because he knows. Well, you understand, you can't

separate Jesus from the father. So if you want to know, who the

father is, you have to examine the sun because Jesus says

you've seen the father because of me.

Okay. So when he says I and the father

are one, this is really important because Jesus had this

desire to only function, so that when you saw him, you actually

didn't see him. You saw his father I'm a

follower of Jesus. Okay.

So, who are we seeing When we see you.

Because if I walked up to some Christians and I'm like so

that's what my daddy looks like. Just say Amen.

Anyway, right? I mean I know you want to

humanize yourself. Well, you know, but I'm not got

you're a child of God. You are in Christ as the son is

in the father. You're in Jesus when the father

sees you, he sees Jesus. So do you look like him?

Do you look like him? Series really aggravating me.

It's really been listening to way too many my conversations

and like talking back. We cannot tolerate talking back.

That is disrespectful. It's time for me to get a non

Apple watch and wear it while I preach.

Hallelujah. He said, I am.

The father are one. He said, the Jews picked up

stones again to Stone him. Jesus answered, I show.

I showed you many good. What from the father for, which

of them. Are you stoning me?

The Jews. Answered him for a good work.

We do not Stone you. So did Jesus?

Do good works. Okay, but you blasphemy because

you being a man, make yourself out to be God.

Jesus answered has it. Not been written in?

Or law. I say you are gods.

If he called them Gods to whom the word of God came and the

scripture cannot be broken. Do you say of him whom the

father Sanctified and sent into the world?

You are blaspheming because I said, I am the son of.

I am the Son of God. If I do not do the works of my

father, do not believe me. but if I do them, Though, you do not

believe me. Believe the So that you may know

and understand that the father is in me and I in the father,

you know what, the father wants his kids to demonstrate him so

much that the lost and dying world may not believe what

you're saying, but it cannot refute what's happening in your

life and I out of your life and the product of your life.

Now again, what was the worst Jesus doing?

He's only Healing The Sick casting out, Devils raising the

dead multiplying fish. Right.

He's only doing. But again, all those things he's

doing, what did he say? He says, and I'll go ahead and

jump to it. Look what it says here in John

12. Just so you understand that when

Jesus is doing all those things, he says for, I do not speak on

my own initiative, but the father himself who sent me has

given me a command as to what to say and what to speak.

I know that know that his command is what eternal life.

Therefore, the things I speak, I speak just as the father Other

has told me. So when he says, what do we

have? Dad said, ask him.

What do you have? Well, we found Five Loaves and

two fish. The Lord said that's enough,

that's enough. Yes, and Jesus can hear it by

the spirit. So he says sit down and then the

Lord said, sit down blessed start this.

He gives him the plan by the spirit just because it's not

audibly. Heard to the 5,000 men.

Does it mean? Jesus decided?

Oh, this is what I'm going to do.

I'm just going to do this because Jesus is not waving a

wand. Jesus is doing the business of

his father. The father's business in

simplest terms is just doing what he says, if you don't do

what he says, then you're not about to father's business.

Now, you may be about your Christianity.

But you're not about the father's business because the

father's business is only one business.

He's only in one business. Making sure his word comes to

pass. Father has one business.

Making sure that his word does not return unto him void, but it

shall accomplish that which it was sent to do.

I'm going to prove it in the next few weeks, man.

I'm telling you. The Bible says, God has even

exalted his word above his own. Was tells me your name is not

more important to Jesus. You want me to give you a little

teaser, a little trailer for next week.

God loves his word more than he loves you but we preach the

Christianity of God's love is if we are the object of God.

Now God loves you. Don't get me wrong.

I'm not saying he doesn't love you but he loves his word.

And that's his business because the king's business is to

guarantee. Whatever he says.

Hallelujah, come on and your Faith Church.

Only go a little bit deeper. Want to get a little bit deeper,

right? Let's give this a deep stuff

Pastor. Okay we go give you some deep

stuff. It's really not deep and my

personal opinion. It's not deep.

Okay but it's definitely not religious It's not religious.

Okay. I love you.

So again, Jesus says, look done your own law said that you are

gods. And at the end of the day,

you're upset at me only because what's happening?

I'm only saying what gag? Dad told me to say, if Dad said

that I'm his child, then I'm going to say it.

I'm a Son of God has he called you that Siri talking to y'all

to that sound? Will you mad.

But Siri out to build, not cast her out, people, and cast her

out. Alleluia maybe series to get

saved and get the whole organization saved.

Alleluia, and then they put the piece back in the Apple.

Just kidding. There's no scriptural evidence

that it was an apple, but it is interesting.

That is one bite out of a fruit. I'm not here to get you in a

conspiracies, just leave it alone.

I have an apple soda but I'm redeemed.

You hear what I'm saying? Hallelujah, Jesus was about his

father's business. That's why he's in the synagogue

because he wants to be around scripture because he wants to be

around the word because the words life and then he only

wants to say what the word says, because that creates life And it

resolves problems. The father's business is not

winning the Lost. The father's business is to

uphold his word and for you to speak his word to someone

outside his kingdom, as he instructs, you to do so.

But what will cause them to do, more is when you demonstrate it.

Jesus is demonstration of the Kingdom, because he had the

audacity to, actually believe that him and the father were one

And he believed that, when I say, what Dad says it has to

happen and it did that the crowd showed up Supernatural, things

took place, we have reduced Christianity to a confession.

That may not even have belief with it because when you start

taking so much out of the scripture, you make it religious

anyway, and at the end of the day, you can say something with

your mouth, but your heart be far from it and you're just a

religious person. Okay, so I get concerned about

people who've made, you've confess.

Jesus is Lord. Because if they're not living a

life in keeping with repentance as John, the Baptist said to the

Pharisees, the religious ones, he said you brought a by pers

who warned you of the day of judgment.

And then they went talking about, you know, a you know

Moses and all he said, well then we live a life in keeping with

repentance, I don't see you demonstrating it.

Now, you aren't running around telling everybody what to do,

even Jesus said, do what the Pharisees say, but don't do what

they do. Don't live their life.

Because they're hypocrites. But the word they say is life if

you'll believe and act on it and it will work because God always

performs his word must say it again always.

So don't come to me, your experience, where someone

believe God his word and didn't work.

You might want to question something else.

Before you question God because I am amazed we say again this is

religious cliche, right? God is all knowing God's without

fail. God is all powerful, but ants on

so was believing in. God didn't do it?

Well, would it be more easy for me to think, maybe Aunt?

So, and so, didn't have something?

That allowed it to happen. Before blaming God.

And then we take it out of context, Albany Sovereign, his

ways are higher than our ways. We works in mysterious ways.

No, he doesn't. No, he does not.

He does not work in mysterious ways.

He works in calculated ways that always come to pass.

Always. But again, it's easier to

develop a Doctrine when you're not in Scripture.

That fits your feeling. And your unknown.

Then it is to go and ask the tough questions.

Hallelujah. I know some people have gone on

to be with the Lord because they had hatred in their heart

unforgiveness in their heart. But on their bedside, they were

acting like they were believing. Okay, that's fine again.

Everybody wants real Ministry to you real, right.

Hey man guys, we're living in a society today that we, we are

going to be the most odd looking folks on the face of the planet

because we're just actually believing the word simply as it

is stated. And that is an anomaly,

unfortunately. But you know, God works with the

remnant man, you want to be a Remnant?

Then you always just want to be with God, I was talking with

laura-leigh before service. I said we have a history book

that I don't care how rebellious people were and how Oh, bad

societies were even to the point of flooding God had somebody

believing. Amen.

So, just choose to be that one sound.

Will be that one. I'll be of that group.

I am the believing group. I am the righteous believing

group. Everybody go to hell in a

handbasket, but I'm the rights of the leaving group.

Everybody back slide out of their Covenant.

I am going to believe God, right?

Because it's amazing what God can do with a little Hallelujah.

So you know just because the majority seems like they're lost

or the majority of the church seems like they're in error.

I'm hopeful because I know what God can do with just one person.

Amen. So again the father's business

is to only be doing what the father says, John Chapter 14

John 14:31

verse 31 He says, but so that the world may know that I love

the father. So that who may know?

And we're supposed to show the world.

The father or Jesus. Are we not supposed to show the

world Jesus? We are ambassadors for for

Christ. Paul said, imitate me.

As I imitate Christ. First Corinthians, 11:1, So

we're supposed to imitate him. So how did Jesus Show The World?

God, the Father. I do.

Exactly. I do exactly.

As the father commanded me. Now notice of command from the

father may not be a miracle. Dad said when I tuck in my

disciples tonight I need to go to the mountain and pray.

When do exactly what he said. My dad said go to the pull up.

Bethesda. I'm looking for one guy,

although there's a lot of people there.

The guy not care for them. Sure, he did.

But we have no idea what was going on.

See I look across this room. Not right now and all these you

as individuals, right? The Bible says, the only person

who knows the spirit of the man is the spirit of the man

himself. So, here's the thing, you know,

your heart, you know what's going on the inside, you know,

what kind of issues are going on or not?

Here's another six God knows too so again we say God knows my

heart. You bet he does.

Most of the time though those people that they're saying that

have a problem with their heart and their they say that

statement as a mask but God does know.

Absolutely, okay. And Jesus the Lord knows what he

has spoken to you about. If you're about the father's

business, you just do it. Whether anyone sees it or not?

because if you can't do the private stuff for the father, I

mean, he's not going to trust you.

Even though it's available. Come on, you have to admit, it's

pretty intimidating to be in a public place.

And you think you heard God say, go snatch that person out of the

wheelchair? How's that going to work?

Let's go to work. Exactly as the father said, But

the reality is really don't believe that.

So that's why we don't snatch them out.

And that's being real, right? Which means then we have to

become proficient at only doing exactly what the father says.

Now, we have zealous people that do all kind of stuff, but

they're not hearing God, they're just trying to do what they've

heard God's done. There's a difference between

hearing God and doing what he said and then hearing what he's

done and trying to do it yourself.

That's what the seven sons of sceva did.

I mean, does God not cast Devils out of people?

Is that God's will? Yes.

Absolutely. It's his will.

And let me just throw this out. Did the disciples before it?

They were born again able to cast Devils out.

Yes, it's not like, it hasn't happened.

Now, I understand this is ax. I understand, Jesus died on the

cross Rose from the grave. I understand the New Covenant is

in play here, but at the end of the day, if they firmly believe

in the name of Jesus, why could they not have gotten it to work?

Well, number once, they weren't authorized because Jesus

authorized them to go out and do this.

Which they were only doing what Jesus said.

So here's the thing, What Makes Miracles easy for us.

What makes operating in the miraculous easy for us?

What anything Z is that we only moved when we here and here's

the cool thing. God may not want you to cause a

deaf person's ear to open, because he has someone else he's

gonna do because he has so many kids.

You don't have to single-handedly do every work

that Jesus did. But you can't you should

single-handedly do exactly what he tells you to do.

And put that scripture back up. If the world wants to see that,

the Hebb that heaven's realm exists and that there is a God.

Because again, can we be honest? The majority of prayers going up

for our NFL player right now the majority Have no idea whether it

is going to be answered. But they know it could be

because they ascribe that God can do those things. now, there

are some people who know Because they know what God's saying

about the situation. I don't know he's not talk to me

about the situation but he could have literally, he can literally

be talking to someone about the situation.

Exactly what to pray, what to do.

And that could be just one person on the planet right now.

And that one thing is what's going to bring it to pass.

Now everybody that's in generally doing it and they know

that God can and they want him to do it because I get at the

end of the day. Who wants people to die, right?

But there's really bring the power.

But so that the world may know. That I love the father.

So not only is this show the father but what else is it show

it shows that he loves him. Hmm, say la.

The world wants to know that Jesus loves dad.

I do exactly as he commanded me. Not because I say I love Dad.

So the first thing you need to change in your love relationship

with Jesus is saying I love you. Jesus and think that's loving

him. Maybe you're not ready for this

series. Oh, we've been so deceived with

our own words. How many of you told someone you

love them? You left them.

I'm talking dating a stay with dating.

I'm not talking about marriage, okay?

I'm not getting over in that. I mean, I was a kid.

Once I slid across a little note, And I was that kid that I

knew the answer before I slid to note because if I don't know the

answer, you're not getting to know.

You ain't Goin. Beerus me.

I have done found out. You dig me?

You want some of this right here?

Sure enough. Yes, I thought so all my

insiders told me. Right.

You like them? Come on.

How many you had at least five girlfriends?

Oh good. Something look.

Look, your wife doesn't care. She knows there was a life

before her. Yeah.

I mean he had about five boyfriends.

Yeah man there's more women on us than the men right now.

Five, every time I had five on the side, I got you.

Literally had one in every country.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it right.

Right. I mean you there were someone

you genuinely at that time thought I could be with this

person for the rest of my life. Then would you use the words?

Those three words. But they're not with you.

So we think when we say I love Jesus, that means we really do.

And that Jesus says, yeah, I feel it.

No, Jesus says the world knows that I love that.

Because I do exactly. As he, what?

What translation it says, New American Standard, as he

commanded me? That's a tough word in the u.s.

right now. Most congregational churches you

don't command me, then you don't understand the kingdom.

Because the kingdom is not sure your democracy because we're not

in a democracy, but you think we are so most people are

functioning that way, right? It's not a democracy.

I mean, you have a will but life is in his word so I'm like

command me because that's life tell me something.

So that I can do it. Because that's life.

All right, so then John chapter 14, John 14:23, 24.

John 14 · chapter mention John 14:23

Last scripture tonight says, is Jesus answering said.

If anyone loves Loves who Jesus. He will.

Keep my word. and, My father. Will love him and we will come

to him. Oh my there's so much in this

one first right here. I mean it's like eradicates most

Christian Church preaching right here.

I mean let's live this life, Jesus answered.

If anyone conditional statement If it's a conditionals, if

anyone loves me. what proves law, he keeps my word and My

father says the Son and the father are one.

How do you know dad loves you because you're keeping Jesus's

word woman, she's word. It's the word in the beginning

was the word. The word was with God and the

Word was God. So I love Jesus.

Keep the word. Well, they done me wrong, I

don't care what they did. What does it is written?

Say in this situation, keep that because you love Jesus, right?

Oh, he knows I love him and keep his word when I can't do that,

then you don't love him. Don't tell me, I don't love him.

God knows my heart, he knows you don't love him.

That's what he knows cuz you're not keeping it.

Period. So quit being Faith.

Being the fantasy. It's a fantasy.

This is how people fall into wrong relationships because they

fantasize that it's better, and it brings death.

And this is why are we don't have deep convictions with God

and walking. His fear is because we really

think it's optional to not do what he says in any situation

and we still love him. The day of God told me, this is

how you prove, you love me. What how simple is that?

I mean, my wife, if she literally tells me if you do

this it it tells me you love me. That's simple.

That's simple. And I'm tell you, I probably

hadn't done that the best. I need to come up my game on it.

Yeah. Because at the end of the day,

if someone comes to you, to literally says this, right here,

tells me, well, then you have an answer.

And to not do it and try to convince them, you love them

another way. And that they're actually wrong

and how they. Now we're humans.

So we can really be jacked up. I get that.

But God is telling us and he's not a man that he shall I.

So he's establishing to us. This is how I know that you love

me and this is how I know the father loves you.

And because at this is how I know we come to you again.

Quit waiting on, trying to come to us.

We're coming to you. I mean, that's the whole great

thing about our relationship with the creator of Heaven and

Earth is that he's like, can't wait to get down there.

Can't wait to get down there, just can't wait to get in them.

I mean, we preaching Christianity, can't wait to go

to heaven, can't wait to go to heaven, can't wait to go, but

yet the father saying can't wait to get down there.

Can't wait to get with him, can't wait to be with him and

he's not, I don't care that they're in a suit that's gonna

still Decay and fall off and they're not in their glorified

because at the end of the day, we can drop all that.

I'll renew their mind as they yield to me and we'll clean that

mess up. We'll get their whole soul round

face and then I'll heal their body.

I'll get that thing a fine running machine man and it goes

State keep them in the planet as long as they're doing that

purpose because I want to be right there with them, right?

And they're Miss, right? Where they're at.

But we don't want to do is where we just want to check out, go to

heaven. Verse, I'll come to him and make

our Abode with him. I wake up everyday and I go,

hey, Lord. Because he's right here.

The holy spirit's in me and the words in me, the word comes out

of me. I wake up with the word of my

mouth. That's awesome.

It's can't wake up with the word of mouth if you're not in the

word verse 24, he who does not love me.

So, we have Clarity here. Does not keep my words.

Who's defining love here. Because Jesus knows that I'm

about to father's business. And the father has a one

business. Doing his word.

So I only do what he says. And the reason why I do what he

says because when I do what he says It lets him know I love

him. I love him.

And the only reason why this is a problem in the Christian

church, Is because before the father for Father, God was our

father, we had another daddy and he was a liar, it's called the

devil. And he has this way of

convincing you. That if you don't get to do it

your way, you're in bondage. That you've lost your freedom.

That true freedom is do what you want to do because you got to

take care of yourself. Jesus speaks the opposite.

He says, man tries to save his life hill. but if he wants to

save his life, he has to lose his life.

The devil tricked. Adam I mean, not tricked him.

He just told me. You said, listen, it's better to

not do. What the father says.

You'll be more powerful. And we lived and existence doing

it. Our way fulfilling our own lust,

doing our own feelings. And they had these weird because

again, there are aspects that God created for us.

That still feel great naturally, but in the Soul and Spirit

realm, there's guilt shame. So I guess all clouded the feel

so good. Mine's me an old country song.

If Loving, You Is Wrong, I Don't Want to Be Right.

And that's how most Christians are.

Because they really just want Jesus to accept them as they

are. But Jesus says, that's what I'm

asking. Accept me as I am.

And I would Empower you to live it my way.

Because you couldn't obey me when you were dead in your

trespasses and sin. Now, I made you alive and to me,

you can You can literally do exactly as I ask you to do and

show me all the time. You loved me.

Because he who does not keep, who does not love me.

Does not keep my words and the word which you hear because he

says, and The Words, which you here is not mine.

But the father who sent me that amazing.

So again, it's like, Lord, you're telling me What to say

and do and they're not even your words, their dad's words.

And he loved me so much. He sent his word to deliver

them, sin is worth the most powerful thing he could do for

the for the human race. When they got into the rebellion

was send his word. Because there's only one

business that has. I will keep my word.

I'll keep it. It will come to pass.

I guard my word to perform it. And his words life his words

truth. His word is the way.

Wow. It's not complicated.

So you have to ask yourself tonight.

Am I about the father's business?

Emma. A my keeper of his word when I

say that, I'm not saying just reading scripture.

I'm saying every situation that takes place you're having a it

is written moment or that. I don't know what to do.

So I'm coming to you because I'm about your business and this

situation you have a word for me that will deliver me on all my

trouble. Because you love me and I love

you and I need your word to key. I need a word right now.
