Help Yourself - with Pastor Marci Glisson

Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith.

Message podcast from st. Augustine Florida.

Now enjoy this message, a couple of Wednesday nights ago.

Pastor actually ministered on Kingdom seasons.

Do y'all remember that message? It was a Wednesday?

I believe. And, you know, and he shared

about just seasons and people's lives and that this is just kind

of a season. I don't know about you, but just

in the world, there is just we're in a season in seeing in

the world. Some things just shifting,

right? And being shaken.

And, you know, it's not like 1950s when everything was

beautiful. And all these happy little

families and all these things. It's not like in the 70s, you

know. It's not anything like the 80s

and 90s. No but we are literally in 2022.

Which when we were in high school we thought you know we

wouldn't that we would be driving you know floating around

and cars and stuff, you know, by now, you know.

But In this, the, the natural, you know, the Bible tells us and

I did not write this down in scripture but there is a

scripture that says that we would know the time and the

season. In everything, there's a season

and everything there's a time and we see in the world just so

much shifting and so much changing.

And, you know, if you are in tune with scripture.

And you know, that this is just part of the combination of all

things coming together, that's been spoken and prophesied

about. We know that.

You know, in the natural people do not even like change.

Right in the natural people are just people of habit and you

know they don't like change so when change happens people get

freaked out. You know they look they act like

they're losing control or you know they don't have a grasp on

things and so if you don't recognize the natural concept of

seasons and change, Then you'll miss what God actually wants to

do in the midst of change and seasons.

You'll miss what God wants to do.

Because in every changing season, or when change begins to

happen in people's lives, it's there for a purpose.

He is a god of change, you know, he is a god of Seasons, he

created it in the natural in the world, right.

But when we look at the world in the fall and state, we know a

lot of what We've seen changes through the years was never

what, obviously God intended, right?

Even with the, the structure of family, you know, just all kinds

of dysfunction and things that we're seeing in the world today.

This was God's obviously not God's original intent and his

plan for his man. But at the same time, we are in

this world that we're not of And in the natural we can see that

change is happening all around us.

I mean Society, all kinds of things have changed right there,

trying to change, you know, even Humanity, right?

Trying to change Humanity to what was a male and a female.

Now it's no longer considered that, right?

So all the way down to the nucleus.

Of what God created man to be anyway.

So we see all this change that's happening.

And and and and we can also say transitions, you know, we're

going to even in our government, we could transition from

democracy to Republic to or the Democrats to the Republic's, you

know, to Independence, whatever's, you know,

dictatorships socialism all kinds of things.

So like once you once, you may have known Society in a way but

then it could change. Depending on who gets voted in

and who decides, they're going to take power, those types of

things is when I'm talking about.

So there's always and it changes the whole system's change, his

whole system's, right of what's, what?

We once knew, you know, back in the day, all there was was home

schooling until they decided they want to Public Schools.

Right? So things change ways of life

change and all of this, you know, can be scary.

Fearful people get in fear whenever there's certain changes

that happen in the natural, right?

Well, when you're a Believer and you have a sure Foundation, that

is not that is unchangeable which is the kingdom of God then

In the midst of all of this, we can have stability in the midst

of change in the midst of seasons in the midst of

transitions, right? And in the midst of all of that

stuff, if we are on the foundation of the rock, then we

won't be moved now off of that rock.

But what happens is if you don't recognize where the Just coming

from, you could get moved off The Rock.

If you don't discern properly. Where the change is coming from

or what season you're actually in, right or that this is just a

transition. So, we know that in the seasons

and in transition and in change that if our foundation has been

built upon the rock, then we don't have to get moved off of

The Rock and actually the rock can Propel Us in the midst of

change. JH transition and season at, but

what I found is that, when people start to become

uncomfortable, because maybe as Pastor said, he used, you know,

the pruning, you know, I am the van Vine, you are, the branches

of band remains in me, he'll bear much fruit apart for me, he

could do nothing, and then he talks about the pruning side of

it, right out of John, 15. And he talked about how what God

there are sea. Zed's just even in the natural

with plant life. That pruning is necessary.

Pruning hurts in that season. But what happens, what's the

result if we recognize the season and what God is doing?

More fruit which Pastor talked about more fruit but a lot of

times what I'm seeing now in my years of 30 years being in the

church and seeing Christians, come and go, is that a lot of

people don't recognize their season?

And they don't recognize the timing.

They don't recognize the change that actually even in the

natural of change and different things.

Happening that God can even use those things for your benefit as

a child of God, As a child of God, if you learn how to discern

and what I found is most of the time when people feel uneasy or

if there's, you know, a stirring or change or something shifting,

people start wigging out and they start reaching out here

instead of reaching in here. They start reaching out here to

figure out what's going on with in here, when really it's within

here, that you should be searching and looking to, right?

And so when that happens, if we are sensitive to the spirit of

God, and we're sensitive to what's going on in our lives.

When maybe God's trying to get us to another place of change.

Get Us into another season of growth, pruning off some things

because during that season things don't feel good at all

and you feel like you're just, what have I been doing all my

life, you know, or whatever the case may be, but yet God's

trying to get you to another place.

But what happens is we've got to be sensitive to know that I've

got to look into here and hear what the spirit of God is

saying. So that in these Seasons, I

Don't miss my opportunity. I don't miss my opportunity to

go to another place that God really intends to take me

because no matter what the season one thing that I have

learned and the 30 years of my life, being a mess.

When I first got into this thing is that through every season,

through every transition, through every shifting and and

thing that God, Wanted to do. And me it was always

uncomfortable. Always uncomfortable which made

me have to dig in deeper. See most of the time when things

happen, they people get distracted with the way they

feel instead of dig deeper into. Okay, God, I'm recognizing there

is something that needs to be dealt with so that, you know,

whatever it is that maybe he's trying to get you to another

place where you never have to deal with this kind of situation

again in your life because he's ready to get you to a place to

Come. Well, I don't feel good.

So what do you have to do? You have to dig in deep and say,

Lord, you show me you speak to me, you give me what I need in

the season because I see all these other things and they

could look crazy, and it could be a distraction and it can seem

like I don't even know what the world I'm doing, but I know

you're doing something in me. You're doing something in me and

I'm going to look to what's on the inside and not all these

circumstances are all these things that are going on, right?

And so if we properly discern and if we prophesy, so with, you

know, this is where pastor had ministered years ago, don't get

lost in transition. You can get lost in transition

when really God is wanting to put you to another elevation or

another place in him. Right, but so many times we let

transition we let different seasons.

We let change get us off of where God actually wants to

propel Us in the midst of us feeling uncomfortable.

Amen. So I said all that to say I

guess, Is that in every season, God is faithful.

I mean, time and time again. Time.

And when everything else is shaken, you can have stability.

And the number one way that you show stability in times of

change or Different Seasons or transition, is that you stay

with the word, you stay with the Lord and you don't let any any

of these things get you out of the number one place, you must

stay to remain. If you remain in me, right?

So we can't let things situations, heartaches

disappointments, you know discouragement you know all

these kind of things get us off of remaining in what we do know,

because he's supposed to be. The one thing that is unshakable

in your life, which will mean that then you, as a Believer

would be stable in every season. You're stable, you're reliable,

you're solid, you don't let anything get you off.

You are constantly in a place of growth and propelling forward

because in everything you just choose to keep one foot before

the other and dig in and dig deep and say Lord you what are

you trying to do? What are you trying to change?

What are you trying to speak? To me about in the midst of all

of these things that are talking to try to get me off?

Off or distracted, or right? Because I've seen too many

people fall off when God's really actually changing

something to propel them to another place.

So, in every season, he's faithful in every change.

He's faithful, if you keep your focus on him, Right?

If you keep your focus on him. So the title of my message

tonight is help yourself. Just help yourself, have you

ever been to, you know, someone's home and, and they've

come to visit you and they come in your door and you just say,

help yourself, you know, make yourself at, you know, you're

welcome, you know, help yourself to anything.

Anything. You need just help yourself,

help yourself. Right.

So this scripture, the Lord has been speaking to me on since

July. And I've shared it in prayer but

I want to share it tonight to the body.

It's out of Philippians chapter 1 and verse 19. he says this

Philippians 1 · chapter mention

for, I know that this shall turn to my salvation, Through your

prayer and a supply of the spirit of Jesus Christ.

This shall turn for your salvation through your prayer

and a supply of the spirit of Jesus Christ.

So, how are we going to help ourselves?

We're going to have to pray. and tap into the supply of the

spirit in every season, we're going to have to pray and we're

going to have to tap into his spirit in every season in

anytime you're feeling something change shifting or you feel

uncomfortable. Listen.

That's nothing like most people that have anxiety or panic

attacks. A lot of times that's not true.

They're just anxious because God is actually wanting to try to do

something in them. I'm not saying that some panic

attacks may not be real and blah, blah blah.

You know I'm not a psychologist but he is and he said that

through me. so, a lot of times when there's anxiousness or

restlessness, Or things happening.

We usually think that it's something bad or something's

wrong. When all along it could be the

Holy Ghost trying to tap on the inside of us to actually discern

and tap in and go deeper and say, okay what is this?

Why is there this restlessness? Why am I feeling anxious about

some things? Right?

Because it may not be what you think it is and what they label

it may be. It may be God actually trying to

stir up something in you to actually come to him.

Come to him. Okay.

So he says listen I know that this is going to turn out to my

salvation. Pastor mentioned this, I believe

it was on Sunday that when you get saved saving of Jesus Christ

goes on and on and on and on you're going to be in situations

throughout your journey in your life on Earth that you're going

to need him to save you out of your problem and deliver you.

Right. So here's Paul, he's talking,

you know, to the Philippian Church writing a letter because

he's actually in prison, right? He's in prison right here in

chapter 1 and so he's letting them know, listen, even though,

I'm in prison, I know that when I come out, I'm going to be

bolder, he actually said that. I'm going to be bolder.

So what am I saying? So here he is.

Something that you would think. Oh my gosh, he's in prison.

How many of us want to be in prison?

But yet Paul, recognized that it made, you I'm going to learn how

to what be content in every situation.

He says know what, no matter what's going on.

If he's got me in prison for proclaiming and preaching Jesus

Christ, and guess what? He said, then the the prisoners

are going to get saved. The jail workers are going to

get saved read it. Philippians chapter 1.

Philippians 1 · chapter mention

He said, all I know is that Jesus Christ is going to be

known. His name is going to be

propelled and the suffering that I may be encountering right now,

the place that I'm in, that feels a little uncomfortable

right now. I mean, really, I thought I was

going to be arrested for preaching the name of Jesus.

You know, there was some suffering, there was some things

happening in his life. It could have been a little

uncomfortable. We know that Paul was in the

bottom of the jail cell. where the poop and the rats and

everything else were but he said in the midst of this season that

I'm in here, guess what? Jesus Christ name is gonna be

proclaimed. He's gonna be glorified.

I'm not gonna come off and actually when I come out I know

I'm going to come out even Bolder to Proclaim his name.

So if Paul in the midst of what he was going through and feeling

uncomfortable, what we deal with in the little uncomfortable that

we have to see from day to day and, and go through is nothing

compared to that. But he said, let me tell you

this, I know that it's going to turn out for my salvation, it's

going to turn out for me, whatever it is that's happening.

And whatever I'm in right now, it's going to turn out what

because what the Opens for bad. God, can what turn it to good?

For those who love him and are called according to his purpose?

So he can turn it around but Paul recognized that it's only

going to happen through prayer. This is what I'm saying.

When things start getting shaky, you ought to be right getting on

your knees. Not literally, do you have to

get on your knees? But that's that terminology,

right? It's time to start praying.

It's time to start tapping into a supply of the spirit in the

seasons. And recognizing that.

If I can press through this, there is a full supply of

everything. I have need for whatever it is

that I'm going through in this season, in this transition, in

this change and the change, no matter what it is, can be

changed for good. If you choose to stay on the

rock, Right. It can be good.

So he said, listen, it's through prayer and the supply of the

spirit, that's why I say help yourself, you've you you, as a

Believer should already know how to pray you, as a Believer

should already know the third person of the godhead lives on

the inside of you and that he wants to come upon you and feel

you and do you with power from on high and fill you with the

Holy Ghost. So that not only do you You know

how to pray in the natural, you can pray in the spirit.

Because you have your prayer language.

So, these are times that I'm telling you, there is a

necessity that we must be people that know how to pray and tap

into the supply of the spirit in these situations right of in the

transition and in the things that we're going through.

Now, let me read that out of the Amplified.

It says there's four I know with confident that this will turn

out for my Deliverance. And spiritual well-being.

Now, he's in prison. You know, he's already been

beaten, he's in prison but he said this is going to turn

around. This is going to turn out for my

deliverance and my well-being, my what spiritual well-being,

this is what our spiritual well-being.

That's why he could say I'm going to be bolder when I get

out. This is just going to make me

stronger. What doesn't kill me?

What makes me stronger? Write it in.

Haven't you ever heard that term?

So he says it's through your prayers and the super abundant

supply of the spirit, which upholds me.

Hallelujah! There is a supply of the spirit

for us to tap into and these last days and in the situation,

with the church as a whole and all the things that are taking

place across the body of Christ, there is a super abundant supply

of the spirit if we'll just happened to it for this day and

for this hour that we can be bolder and we can be stronger

when the world's trying to shut every form of God, out of our

nation, we can be stronger and we can be bolder if we'll just

go through the changes that God's trying to do in our life

if will just allow him to prunus if will allow him to have some

things that maybe feel uncomfortable in my life so that

I can get to another place of boldness because we're going to

need it in this last day. We're going to have to know what

we believe. We're going to have to know what

we believe, but not only know what we're going to have to

speak. What we believe.

And we're going to have to be bold in the midst of people

wanting to let you know what you think.

You don't know. Right?

We're going to have to be bold so let's read it out of the

passion translation, it says. Because I know that the lavish

supply of the spirit of Jesus, the anointed one and your

intercession for me will bring about my Deliverance.

So this is not just Now, I lay me down to sleep.

I pray, the Lord, my soul to keep Our Father, which art in

heaven, Hallowed Be Your Name, Your Kingdom Come your will be

done. No, this is talking about real

prayer. Knowing how to have Throne Room

activity, knowing how to talk to the father come on, knowing how

to intercede and bring intercession in the midst of

circumstances and situations that you're going to encounter

or that you may be in intercession.

He's not talking about some little, thank you, Lord, for

this day and bless me and my four and no more and no, we're

talking about real prayer. We're talking about

intercession. Amen, to be able to tap into the

spirit and that supply that he has for us to be able to

overcome anything. We are Overcomers, we are

Overcomers, no matter what. It may look like.

If we learn how to tap into prayer and the spirit of God, we

will overcome every every Everything anything and

everything. Will overcome attacks.

Will overcome right? Depression.

Will overcome mental instability?

Will overcome? Come on in me thing.

Any insecurity. Anything that we may be dealing

with, Anything we can overcome, there is nothing that we cannot

overcome. And it's sad.

I have we have to remind people of that.

There is nothing that you and God cannot overcome.

Nothing is too big for him. Nothing at all right.

Listen to what Psalms 34 and 17 says, why do I want to say this?

Because listen, he said, I know that this will come out for my

deliverance, and we must recognize it says that in Psalms

34 17, when the righteous Cry for Help.

The Lord, what? They cry for help.

Help yourself. They cry for help but the Lord

hears them and what delivers them out of all of their

distress and their trouble. He delivers them out of all.

All their distress. That means stressed.

All the stress that we hear everybody talk about.

Well, I'm just stressed. I'm stressed.

I'm stressed, I'm stressed. I'm stressed and he lets us know

here that he can actually Deliver us out of that stress.

He can deliver us out of stress and what troubles, any kind of

trouble. You're having he can deliver you

out of it if you just ask him for help.

How many of us are not taking the time to really ask for help?

That's just the bottom line. We're being lazy.

We want to go through a McDonald's drive-thru.

And get some french fries and a Happy Meal.

Let's just say that Happy Meal. To be happy in 2 minutes.

That is not how our God works. It's a false sense.

It's a delusion to think that that's how he works.

No. It's a process of trusting of

growing of knowing him of pressing in to him to find out

what it is. We need from him to help us with

Right. And so he goes on to say this in

Psalms 54 and versus 7 for 37. It says behold, God is my

helper. The Lord is the sustainer of my

soul. And then when you drop down to

verse 7, it says this for, he has delivered me out of all of

my trouble. And my eye has seen its desire

upon my enemies. So here, he lets us know in

Psalms listen, The Lord hears your cries and he can deliver

them out of all of your troubles, right?

But then he goes on in verse 7 and shows you, he has delivered

me out of them. And that what it says he has So

the he had some troubles, he went to the Lord, he cried to

the Lord. The Lord helped him and

delivered him out of them. Amen.

You didn't, he didn't have to stay in it.

He was delivered out of it because he went to his source to

his help to the helper on the inside.

Amen. Now, let me read that.

Let's look at the Holy Spirit a minute.

Okay, talking about the Holy Spirit on the inside of you.

Cause he said, listen the only way we're going to get through

this and come out bold on the other side and be delivered from

these things is if through prayer and intercession and

tapping into the spirit, right? So in John 14, chapter 14,

chapter 15 and chapter 16. This is where you begin to learn

about the third person, of the godhead who is the Holy Spirit.

He's called our helper. He's called our helper.

This is why I say help yourself. Help yourself.

He's right there on the inside, go ahead and help yourself to

the Holy Ghost on the inside tap into him, so that he can bring

the deliverance and the supply that you need in this time.

Amen. So, John 14, 16 17.

I want to read this and I will ask the father and he will give

you a what another helper. He'll give you a helper.

We know that word is paraclete. I'm going to read it out of the

Amplified because it breaks it down.

Perfect about what the helper actually is the comforter.

Does anybody ever getting a place where they just need God

to comfort them? Guess what?

Just help yourself. Just help yourself.

He's the comforter how about Advocate come on and then here's

that word intercessor again. So he's letting us know that

through our prayers of intercession we can tap into a

supply of the spirit that we need but he also lets us know

that the spirit is the intercessor on the inside of us.

So help yourself. Just help yourself.

Come on, anything you have need of, there's a full Supply from

the spirit, the counselor. Oh, you don't know what you need

to be doing or you need some mental health care or come on?

You have you have a counselor on the inside?

Help yourself. You don't need.

Help yourself. He's saying just help yourself.

I'm there as a counselor. I'm there.

How about this? As a strengthener?

How about this as a standby? Hallelujah, to be with you

forever. The spirit of Truth whom the

world cannot receive, they cannot help themselves.

But you can help yourself. You can help yourself.

We ought to be so radically different than the world and the

way they act and the way they behave and the way they dang

think Hallelujah, completely different.

We have the third person of the godhead on the inside of us, and

we are not helping ourselves. We're not helping our self.

So the world can't receive it and take it to his heart because

it does not see him or know him but you know him because he the

Holy Spirit remains with you continually and will be in you

John 15:26. But when the helper The

John 15:26

comforter, the advocate, the intercessor counselor

strengthener standby. Paraclete is the Greek word,

Right comes not parakeet. Paraclete comes whom I will send

to you from the father. That is the spirit of Truth who

comes from the father. He will testify and bear witness

about me. Hallelujah.

Now, John 16:7 and 8. However, I am telling you

John 16:7

nothing, but the truth. When I say it is profitable good

expedient or advantageous for you that I go away.

Jesus said listen, it is to your advantage.

Advantage. Now that I'm putting the third

person of the godhead in you, I've going away so that he can

come so that he can help you so that you can help yourself.

Just help yourself because as I've said before, God is not

going to help you. God has already done everything,

he's going to do, he established the Earth?

He put man in it, he gave me an authority over this Earth.

He already you know redeemed Man by what sending Jesus to the

Earth to get man back into a position of authority and

rulership. Over the Earth.

Jesus is not going to help you. Jesus already helped you by

pouring out his blood on The Mercy Seat to give you access to

the throne so that you can make Throne Room activity.

Jesus has already done everything.

He walked in the Earth as a man. He died Heroes come on and then

he said it is finished. His assignment, his purpose was

finished, but guess who's still in the Earth?

Because Jesus said, I must go so that he can and where does he

come? He comes to make his Abode in

man when you call on his name. So now it's actually up to you

and the Holy Ghost. To participate with one another.

Come on to participate with one another, to get things done.

To get things done to get things done and you.

To get things done in the earth through you.

Amen. So help yourself.

Help yourself. so, he said, I must go so that he can come

Because I do not go away. The comforter counselor helped

her advocate intercessor streets.

And her standby will not come to you and to close fellowship with

you, but if I go away I will send him to you to be in close

fellowship with you and when he comes, he will convict convinced

the world and bring demonstration to it about Sin

righteousness, uprightness of heart, and right standing with

God and about judgment, that's another whole nother subject,

but we're not going to talk about that.

That. So I want to look at what he

said here as a comforter. And counselor because there's so

many times with the Holy goes, that's living on the inside of

us. He's always prompting the Holy

Ghost. If you're a child of God and

you're in church and you're hearing the word, the Holy Ghost

job is always to be prompting you on the inside.

The Holy Ghost is always prompting.

Always speaking always trying to get your attention.

Always always. There's never a Time unless

you've hardened yourself, right? And blaspheme that that he's not

trying to get you to a place of understanding who he is more,

right? And who you are more in him.

So as the comforter he's one that brings you comfort, right?

So what am I saying that? No matter what's going on in

your situation. When you feel like You need that

Comfort. We've said this before.

You can't go find that comfort. In the things of this world, you

can't find that comfort in a relationship.

You can't find that comfort in, you know, food.

Have you seen the 600-lb, you know?

Show And most of the time they're comforting themselves

with food because of an issue, right?

Most of the time. So people are trying to find

comfort and security right there, trying to be feel secure

because things are changing or shifting or whatever the case

may be, and he's letting us know.

Listen, if you'll just tap into the supply of the spirit for

that Comfort, I'll give you the right thing.

And you won't move over into the wrong thing.

That's actually going to destroy you even more, right?

But the holy spirit's there to comfort.

You write. The Advocate is one.

That's there to argue your case for you.

The Bible says in Revelations, that the devil is the accuser of

the Brethren. What does he's always trying to

accuse you right in your mind that, well, you can't do this?

Well, you're not going to be good enough for you, fail, too

much or We'll never be able to do this or you'll never be able

to do that. He's always accusing.

He's going up and trying to get you to get off of what God is

telling you, that you are. So he's always tried to accuse,

always trying to accuse but the advocate the Holy Ghost on the

inside, is there to help you to argue the case?

What's he going to do? He's going to remind you.

Another working of the holy spirit is going to remind you of

what the word has said. So, the Holy Spirit, then when

that's happening, could actually argue Your Case by bringing up a

scripture and saying now, say that devil it is, Written, it is

written, right? What's the word say about that

situation? When he says, no, you're going

to be broke? No, but the word says, because

he just argued the case, because on the inside, he said, no, I

have more than enough, right? No Lack for any good thing.

Or my God, shall supply, all my needs.

According to his riches in his. So he's always there as your

Advocate, working on your case to remind you of what God has

already said, actually, an advocate can be as one, you

know, when you go into a lawyer's office, there's there's

those that are called advocates. To help you in your case.

Amen. Then we see him as what, not,

just the advocate, but the counselor someone that gives you

advice according to the law. A counselor in the natural right

now, you know, and the definition they brought up

mental psychologists counselors, right?

Well, you know what, the greatest mental counselor is the

word of God. The greatest mental counselor is

the word of God. Is the word of God.

Now I'm not saying you don't need to seek counsel, you know,

from others may be that you know are a good source that actually

is going to lead you back to the word of God, not the ways of the

world and the way they think. And their psychology that you

shouldn't spank, your children are.

You shouldn't do this or you should.

No, my counsel comes from the word of God, right?

My counsel comes from the word of God, right?

So the counselor he's giving you advice, according to what is

written, So you know that if you're getting advice from the

Holy Ghost, it can never fail because his word will never

fail. His word is the only thing

that's going to stand and remain until the end.

So, whatever this word says it. Sure, wonderful Council.

And it's wisdom, right? It's not of this world and so we

have to make sure that we recognize that the Holy Ghost is

there to give you counsel but it's going to come in line with

the word. Amen.

The intercessor is a mediator. Intercessor is a mediator, the

Holy Ghost on the inside of you is, is a mediator.

What, how do we know this? Because Jesus Christ is what

sitting at the. Right hand of the father, we are

seated with him. And as that mediator, as the

intercessor as a Holy Ghost is they're taking orders from

Jesus. So, he is then interceding and

bringing those orders, from Jesus, about your case to you.

So that then you can have what you need from the Lord from God.

Right? You need, you have the answer

because he's that mediator. He's the one actually hearing

from Jesus to get Jesus hearing from God.

Then he's relaying that as a me. Mediator through the Holy Ghost

to you of what the Lord is saying about your situation,

right? The strengthener one, who

provides additional strength. I like that.

Additional strength, one who provides additional strength,

you know, because there's times you don't feel what you feel

weak, you don't feel like you're going to be able to make it

through whatever situation you may be going through.

I don't even know how we're going to make it.

I just need you know, but the Holy Ghost is there to give you

the strength to make it through. If you just tap in help yourself

to the street, there's more than enough strength.

He's got plenty of strength, and we know that other scripture in

Jude 1:20 says that when you pray in the spirit, you what

Jude 1:20

build yourself up on your Most? Holy Faith.

So praying in the spirit is twofold, you're praying in the

spirit to get direction, to get the words.

You need from the Lord in those times of Prayer.

When you don't know how you ought to pray.

You're getting direction, you're getting the word.

You're getting the information that you need, but then he also

has building you up, strengthening you at the same

time. It's a two-fold thing.

It's twofold. Because you're getting build up

as you begin praying in the spirit looking for your answers.

So when you pray in the spirit, listen it is not just, you know,

babbling off the top of your head.

When you pray in the spirit, your spirit, he's Spirit.

God is Spirit. I'm a spirit weak.

Immune, Spirit to Spirit. So when I'm spending time in

prayer, it's building me up. It's reminding me who I am.

It's making me realize, hey, I can do this thing, right?

I can do this, I can get through this, I can be strengthened with

additional strength and then he's our standby.

Listen, I'm on standby. Right?

You have are pilots what are they on their on standby.

So that if something happens to one of the pilots, or maybe they

get tired, or whatever the case may be, they have somebody else

on standby. Ready to what step right in.

He lets us know, the holy spirit is as our stand by He's right

there, Hallelujah, which goes back to God saying I'll never

leave you nor I will? What never forsake you.

I'm stand by. I'm always there help yourself

because I'm always here. I'm standing by waiting for you.

Come on waiting for you to just tap in and ask for help.

I'm on Standby, come on, I'm there when you dive go into the

three and four jobs trying to make ends meet When you're done

trying to, you know, do all these things in the natural that

you can figure out. I'm all stea by, I've been

waiting all along for you to just help yourself so that I can

give you the answer. You need.

You don't need to work for jobs. All you need to do is learn how

to tap into the full supply of the spirit for my God, shall

supply, all your needs. According to his riches and

Glory, come on, oh, your needs, of course, he was talking about

financial, needs there in Philippians 4 when you read on

down but he's He's letting us know.

They're all your needs. All your needs.

I'm old standby. I'm right there.

I have a full supply for whatever it is that you have

need of. All you have to do is help

yourself but we're not helping our self.

It's just like you know, he says I've prepared a table before you

before the presence of your enemy.

All these things are laid out on the table, help yourself, help

yourself to Healing help. Yourself to Joy, right?

Help yourself to, you know, provision, help yourself to

whatever it is, help yourself. It's all laid out.

We are not tapping into the helper to the help that we need

every day. Come on, he's right there.

He's off standby. He's ready to go, he's ready to

go, whenever you're ready. And all we have to do is press

in and say, yeah, everyday, I need help, Lord everyday, I need

help. I need help.

Every day. Thank you.

Lord, that the helpers on the inside of me.

Thank you, Lord. That you're giving me wisdom for

the day. Thank you.

Lord. Come on, whatever it is that I

need help. When I don't know how I ought to

pray. He says listen and Romans 8 that

I could begin to pray in the spirit with groanings that words

can articulate. But what am I doing?

I'm interceding. I'm pressing in to get the

answers that I need by the Holy Ghost.

Let me just Read that Romans 8:26.

Romans 8:26

It says, likewise the spirit also helps in our weaknesses.

There he goes. He lets, you know, when your

stroke when you're struggling with strength, to be able to

make it through another day. Come on.

I'm right there to help in your weakness for we don't know what

we should pray. I mean have you ever been in

that situation Lord? I've just done.

I just don't even know what I'm supposed to say what I'm

supposed to do. Help yourself.

Come on, just help yourself to the Holy Ghost on the inside of

you that standing right there by waiting for you to just happen

to a full supply of everything you need for an answer.

Everything you need everything for we don't know how we ought

to pray but he's there the spirit himself, what makes

intercession? For us with groanings, which

cannot be uttered. Hallelujah glory to God.

So I'm telling you, all we have to do is learn how to help

ourselves. Just tap into the Holy Ghost on

the inside of you start pressing in in this season of change and

things shifting in the atmosphere of all the stuff

that's going on in our world. I'm telling you we've got a

press in even more even more and say Lord I mean, come on I need

help here. I don't want to get off The

Rock. I want to be stable in the midst

of every season of Every transition of anything that

you're doing or anything that's going on in the world.

Right, because we know y'all know I've said this so many

times. that in the last of the last days of many Will fall away

from the faith and a lot of times they fall away during

these types of seasons. Of instability.

Of change of pruning of him, trying to prune of him, trying

to bring you to another transition in your life, many

fall away because they don't understand that.

If they would just look inward during that time and just help

themselves to the Holy Ghost on the inside, the greater one, the

greater one, the greater one that's on the inside of each and

every child of God. Laver.
