  1. Message the Holy Ghost title the Five Eyes of Satan. Brother Samuel, stand

  2. up real quick. I know you're watching your baby girl. Could y'all imagine

  3. if this guy had five eyes like those eyes on that big head. How

  4. intimidating that would be? The five Eyes of Satan. I am not talking

  5. about that part of the body that allows us to see things. I'm talking

  6. about the letter I. If you have your Bible, will you turn with

  7. me to the Book of Isaiah. Mad Director attention to the fourteenth chapter.

  8. We will be reading the verses numbers twelve through fourteen. Brother Nathaniel James,

  9. chapter number four, verse number fifteen, Brother Jesse Luke, chapter number twenty

  10. two, and verse number forty two. I want to say, I think

  11. God for every preacher in this building. I thank the Lord for every teacher

  12. in this sanctuary that taught the word of God today. We are most appreciative

  13. for those lessons that you will taught. All of the testimonies that we heard

  14. tonight, Sister Pampatulo's testimony of God bringing her daughter out of that critical state,

  15. I'm thankful for that. Brother Wallace's testimony of how the Lord helped him

  16. stay out of trouble with his employer because of a mistake that he had made

  17. unintentionally. All of this has been food from my soul. Brother Nathaniel James,

  18. chapter number four and verse number fifteen, Please sir, for the that

  19. he ought to say, if the Lord will, we shall live and do

  20. this or that. So we ought to say, if the Lord will,

  21. I will do this or I will do that. And of course I'm paraphrasing

  22. brother Jesse Luke chapter number twenty two and verse number forty two, saying,

  23. Father, if thou be willing remove this cup from me, nevertheless, not

  24. my will, but thine be done. Let's stand for the reading of our

  25. golden text. How many of you heard the verse of scripture that brother Jesse

  26. just read. Jesus himself said, not my will, father, but thine

  27. be done. Isaiah chapter number fourteen, Verses number twelve through fourteen. The

  28. Bible said, how art thou falling from heaven, Old Lucifer, son of

  29. the Morning, how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken

  30. the nations? For thou hast set in nine heart. I will as sind

  31. into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, I

  32. will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the

  33. north, a sin above the heights of the clouds. I will be locked

  34. the most time, yet thou shalt be brought down to Hell to the sides

  35. of the pit. May we pray, Heavenly Father, we love and we

  36. praise you. We thank you for the opportunity to be in the house of

  37. the Lord. I pray that you would annoyt this thy servants, stead of

  38. guard in my mouth, and help me to say the things that you would

  39. have me to say, nothing more, nothing less. Anoint the ears of

  40. this thy people, that they might hear what it is the spirit of God

  41. saith to the church tonight. Annoyt us, we pray, Lord, the

  42. people that are in this building are precious. If you know exactly what each

  43. and every one of him need. May the words that God go below the

  44. shoulders. May they saturate the spirit and the soul of each person. I

  45. pray that we would not hear only but that we would heed what it is

  46. the Spirit saith under this church tonight. And may we depart this place joyfully

  47. and not sorrowfully. In Jesus' name, Amen, As you're being seen to

  48. say, hey, neighbor, is Satan ugly or beautiful? There was a

  49. time in Satan's existence that he was extremely beautiful. Our text is found in

  50. an Old Testament book of the Holy Bible, the Book of Isaiah. This

  51. book is a very large prophetic book. Is evident for the readers of this

  52. sacred writing to see that the prophet Isaiah was very busy with his prophetic ministry.

  53. How many in this building tonight are thankful for a busy pastor how many

  54. if you all are thankful that you have preachers that keep busy, and that

  55. they work jobs and they provide for their own Not only do they provide for

  56. their own families financially, they are the priests of their own house, and

  57. they provide for them spiritually. This prophet Isaiah was one that was not hesitant

  58. nor reluctant to provide for his nation. When God called his number, he

  59. answered the call, and Brother Nathaniel, he was obedient to that calling.

  60. And we find that he received numerous visions of the Lord and told people of

  61. pending doom and damn nation that was coming upon their nation because of their disobedience

  62. to the Lord. The son of Amos knew the Lord on a greater level.

  63. How many of you can say that in the last year you have grown

  64. in God. How many can say I've experienced great grace and great power that

  65. I thought was not available to a person as lowly as I. I can

  66. say that I have received great grace and goodness and power from God that I

  67. did not thought could be tapped by mere mortals such as I. But I

  68. am thankful for the availability of us being able to make contact with the Lord.

  69. And so Isaiah was a humble servant. He states this when he says

  70. that he is the son of Amos. So this man knew the Lord at

  71. a greater level than most of the contemporaries and the peers that were throughout the

  72. land of Israel. He understood the true meaning of life is that every person

  73. who serves the Lord ought to worship him in spirit and in truth. When

  74. we first moved down here, one of the deacons and elders of this local

  75. congregation, he would say often that God is a spirit and they that worship

  76. him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Brother Johnny Platt was that

  77. man, and he would put an emphasis on that we maintained the truth in

  78. the inward parts, and that we also promoted and preached truth. Have noted

  79. that a lot of churches today are not hesitant at all to worship the Lord,

  80. but they do not have truth active in their life. This man,

  81. Isaiah knew that the people of God must have their lives centered on God.

  82. How many in this building tonight could show, by the raising of the hand

  83. and say that my God is the center of my life. If your self

  84. will is the center of your life, then you've got a problem. And

  85. I'm going to preach to you tonight. If you could say without hesitation that

  86. I have a tendency to be selfish rather than selfless, that I'm going to

  87. preach to you tonight. What the Lord put on my heart this afternoon to

  88. preach to you, I've heard it sent my sister Iris Woot, which is

  89. one of the elder sisters of our church. For many years, she has

  90. said, pleasing the Lord is all that matters. I don't feel like every

  91. person in this building is bent towards pleasing themselves, but I do feel like

  92. we've got a handful that would rather please themselves than please the Lord. And

  93. we want to dissect this dead corpse right here tonight, and find out why

  94. there is no life in your spirit, and why there is no fire in

  95. your bones, and while there's no fire in your eyes. Because if the

  96. Lord is standing center stage of your life, and if the Lord is in

  97. the throll room of your heart, the King of Glory has walked through those

  98. ever lasting doorways of those everlasting souls, and the King of Glory is living

  99. inside of those that have him in residency. There. In Isaiah, chapter

  100. number forty eight, verse number eleven, the great Prophet Isaiah wrote these words.

  101. We find him saying, the reason for the Lord dealing with the hearts

  102. of mere mortal is this, And this is God speaking to the Prophet Isaiah.

  103. He said, for my own sake, even for my own sake,

  104. will I do it? For how should my name be polluted? And I

  105. will not give my glory unto an author. Now that the Lord is sitting

  106. in the throne room of your heart, then you will have no problem at

  107. all letting him arraign. The Bible said that the Lord are powerful, or

  108. the Lord omnipotent reign. And I feel like there are people in this building

  109. tonight that could say without a doubt I understand the lordship of Christ. That

  110. is a doctrine that has much overlooked today. Very few people within Christendom,

  111. or within modern Christianity, or within Christian society at large, they do not

  112. understand the doctrine of the lordship of Christ. How many of you know that

  113. the Bible will send it at some point, every need will bow and every

  114. tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. You can bow now or you

  115. can burn later. You can bow now or you can bow later. You

  116. can burn now or you can burn later. I feel I can be important

  117. for us to be obedient to the spirit of the Lord tonight and allow the

  118. King of Glory to walk through the doorway of these everlasting hearts. The Lord

  119. is doing everything for his own glory, including fashioning mankind out of the dust

  120. of ground and putting into them the breath of life. God, in all

  121. of that for his own glory. You have been fearfully and wonderfully made for

  122. his own glory. I want to preach to you here tonight, if you'll

  123. bear with me just a little while Heaven a little while, where I preach

  124. to you tonight this morning, I preach the servon titled comfort is on its

  125. way or comfort is coming, And our golden text was taken from the fortia

  126. chapter and the first verse of that same sacred chapter. The Book of Isaiah

  127. was the place that we found our golden text. And here denied is another

  128. place in the Book of Isaiah that we find our golden text. In the

  129. message this morning, I stress this streath has strengthen and the comfort that is

  130. available to those who make the Lord their priority. Again this morning and the

  131. servant I put forth an emphasis and stress that there is strength and comfort that's

  132. available to those who make the Lord their priority. The reason why so many

  133. people today are dealing with anxiety and depression and so many other things is because

  134. they have not made the Lord their priority. Lucifer did not want God to

  135. be number one. We find that of all the creative beings, Lucifer was

  136. that one that was most glorious. He was most talented and most glorious because

  137. it he was supposed to use her the talents and the skills and abilities that

  138. he had for the glory of God. He sees so many young people come

  139. to an arrogancer and they become egotistical, because of the blessing, Sir,

  140. that God has given them. If you have a beautiful appearance, like a

  141. David of old, if you're ruddy and of a beautiful countenance, if you're

  142. like miss Esther who became the queen and the bride of a hassrous, if

  143. you are beautiful in appearance, or if you're multi talented, saying you've got

  144. musical ability second to nobody. Do you realize the reason why you've got all

  145. of these talents? Well, that's one, there are five, they're ten.

  146. It could be financials, and that's probably what they're talking about in the

  147. parablem other talents. It could be finances. It could be physical paceique,

  148. or physical stature, or physical appearance. But whatever it is that you've got

  149. to you have been fashioned in His likeness, and it is to be used

  150. for the glory of God. It is not to bring an increase in the

  151. payroll of people that are producing movie, say for Hollywood. It is not

  152. to be promoted on a big screen somewhere. It is not to be put

  153. to center stains in Nashville somewhere. It is not right for miss Taylor Swift

  154. to stand there apply for him. Had to perform to thousands, maybe ten

  155. and twelve thousand a stay a rod their brains for her talent. You know

  156. the why with sin that Lucifer he fail, King Saul he fail. Pritney

  157. spirits and she fell, and Expressley she feel. Michael Jackson he failed.

  158. He could be a conspiracer, conspiracy theorist. Oh you want to, but

  159. I want you to know. It was not the illuminating man that took these

  160. people name burn of a road. It's not assassinated by the illuminating man.

  161. No. Ultimately, her spirit had been lifting up. I smell Ha's these

  162. others. The spirits have been lifting up for ten minute. It's not you.

  163. That why somebody that hated him John and was to you on that because

  164. he said I'm more popular God Jesus said, I'm coming to night to make

  165. war. But just the start pride God began to deal with, made us

  166. afternoon, had to hide nap for forty five minutes and planning to go in

  167. another direction. God began to speak to me concerning pride. Pride is an

  168. ugly thing. I know. I said a little while ago that Rusaper a

  169. satan, if you would does not have never has had five houralls in that

  170. thing. He calls her her head. Oh come on, now, I

  171. know that two heads is a monster. I know that at some point he

  172. got too big for his breeches. He was not ugly at this time.

  173. On his life factor fall or the creative being. He's the most glory,

  174. so he's the mosquito pon, he's the most talented, he's the most musical.

  175. What in the world with wrong? I'll tell you what went wrong,

  176. but you confided. Then I got to text. We're not talking about five

  177. our balls in his head. We find five out real statements, and that's

  178. where he went wrong. I will do it me out card. I will

  179. do this and that whether or not God says it's okay. And now I

  180. should be able to fold up the Bible and start preaching it right now.

  181. How many people in dispunding are getting what I'm saying? How many people in

  182. disputing, by the raising of your hand, would put forth a sign showing

  183. others that you know, God is Lord of all life, the life within

  184. the animal kingdom, the life within the human racer. The Lord is the

  185. lord of them all. The rock star, the pop star, the holiness

  186. preacher, that woman of you'll repute that goddly virtuous, meek woman. The

  187. Lord is the maker of them all. And if you can get a hold

  188. of this tonight, you're not your own. Your bout with the pries.

  189. That body is to be the temple and the hold a dost. Oh,

  190. yes, sir, I can review God out of the way and real life.

  191. When God breathed into the nostrils of Adam the breath of life, and

  192. he became a living soul, the Lord was very pleased. But immediately Adam

  193. and Eve and He came out on the side of the man. You know

  194. the story, trying to cut it short here, But immediately they began to

  195. question the words of God and the will of God. The will of God

  196. was that they would remain in that haven of rest, that they would tear

  197. along in the garden of Eden, that land where the lion did not attack

  198. the sheep, that land where there was no strife, that land where there

  199. was no person inviting, where they would walk through the garden in the cool

  200. of the day, shoulder to shoulder with the Lord of life. How many

  201. of you value the lordship of Jesus Christ. Apparently, Lucifer or Saintan was

  202. able to masquerade himself and to put on a persona of simplicity of the beast

  203. up the field. There is this simple beast, and that is also very

  204. subtle. See the simplicity and the septulity of the serpent, and the serpent

  205. begins her to talk to them. And the question the authority of God.

  206. That's the beginning of the damn call of every boy and girl, of mom

  207. and dad. As we never begin to question the authority of the Word of

  208. time. You know why too, I repl we're reading the Bible that it's

  209. because they don't care what God said. They don't care. I'm thinking the

  210. world I'm out holding that they don't care. I'm taking alarm about's sake of

  211. a case one cares not. In loosening a woman one time, she said,

  212. I don't care what the Bible said. I know what the spirit inside

  213. of me is saying. Listen the word of God and the spirit of God,

  214. which is the third part of that blessed reality the brother Richard Jacob talked

  215. about a little while ago, there is never a killer flint in heaven.

  216. Why is their marital strife? Why is there anxiety? Why is there depression?

  217. Why is this such toxicity. It's so many family environments. It is

  218. because of the stubbornness of so many people and the sceptivity a satan. He

  219. comes in your guide bouncing data. You want to kick the devil actor the

  220. Roman. Listen to me. If you're a firstman, is a work,

  221. providing your necessary word in your necessary food. You should not be dying with

  222. a deaf man. If that's not matter, it puts tease us and come

  223. on now telling you why I heard the spirit tell no, that's not the

  224. Jesus of the Bible. Sucker punched it, didn't I I had a god

  225. name Jesus helped me at the Mexican restaurant today. Well, your mama calls

  226. you, didn't you? Yeah, didn't she? She called you and she

  227. educated you instead a thing or two. Don't anybody think that's going on in

  228. May or may not be. Maybe it's about to Your daddy called you.

  229. They said this, and that, I'm telling you, while your husband is

  230. providing for you and while he is working, you should not be dining with

  231. the devil. Come on, but Jesus told me. I heard the false

  232. prophet say that one time. He said that Jesus walked into his bedroom,

  233. and he conversated and communicated with Jesus. He won't but about twenty minutes into

  234. the conversation when I heard the contradictory statements, Todd said in his word,

  235. and I knew and rest out Jesus from nasawith go pards, the Lord of

  236. life, decided that God again, it doesn't matter person impostate Jesus. They'll

  237. tell you. The lads over here, they'll tell you the laws over there

  238. be out of lom of God. In our church tonight, I value the

  239. lordship of Jesus Christ of Nasareth, born of the Virgin Mary, who died

  240. for our sin, who paid the Christ and paid off that sidate that we

  241. cannot pay, and on the third day was resurrected. That is the Jesus

  242. that I'm preaching about, and that is the Jesus whose will matters. There

  243. are some other real statements and the other places in the Bible where the letter

  244. I is used. There are chasing by God the Father and by his son

  245. Jesus. There are some other will statements, but I'm not focusing on the

  246. statements of the Godhead tonight. I focusing on your selfish will and these five

  247. I will statements of Saintan have many here are willing to bow the heads from

  248. time to time and look up to Him meekly and humb and know that you

  249. must humble yourself in the spirit of self amazement and humility. You cannot lift

  250. up yourself and a spirit of self exaltation. In this book of the Bible

  251. we find how the Lord despises the pride of mankind. In Isaiah chapter number

  252. two and Burst number eleven, the Lord speaking to us Isaiah sair that the

  253. lofty looks of man shall be humble, and the haughtiness of men shall be

  254. bound down, and the Lord alone shall be insulted. In that day,

  255. I'll see about so many professor Christians that won't even speak to you in town.

  256. I see it when they ignore you. I see it when they ignore

  257. that person that they're gonna church me in on another location. That is not

  258. a time saving, That to you, a confusing the associated I refuse of

  259. a fellowship fast out of God. Tell me he may, I'm gonna stamp

  260. you tonight. It's all proud. There's nothing at all about that that involved

  261. God. There's a stir of meness, a shallas with that right, you

  262. don't care about your brothers. You never feel gonave you a wide steak because

  263. spent is fucking Sometimes all it takes for that young person to know what we

  264. care is that's a good looking pair of shoes. Sister, that's a beautiful

  265. gam you're wearing. Right to tell this wedding ceremony your son is getting married

  266. self abasement. I don't feel like doing this because I know I'm gonna get

  267. tongue tied. Then I'm not gonna say the right things. That's all right,

  268. sister. Howe has done that a time or two herself. She's went

  269. up to somebody we have seen in five to ten years, literally pointed I

  270. tobellyon and said, when is the baby doing, only to hear them saying

  271. that is not baby, that is fat grandson. I know we're all concerned

  272. about saying so it don't stop making any sense. We might be totally off

  273. the top of the but the Bible said the friends my soul themself. You

  274. want to sit there in your own brother, sit there in the old tall

  275. But I'm afraid I'll say something wrong. If I had not got victory over

  276. the spirit of pride and the spirit of fear. I'd never preached the first

  277. message. I certainly would have never passed through the first church. We certainly

  278. would be having church tonight, would be being the preacher. But I'm sickened

  279. by these lofty looks of man. And they call it I'm scared. They

  280. call it I got far. They call it I don't have a personal You

  281. can do a whole lot better than what you're doing. Because if I was

  282. waving a million dollars in your face right now and I said all you had

  283. to do was come up here, they get it hastily and with a smile

  284. on your face. There's not a person in this building that would not put

  285. extreme value on that connection. Well, I want you to know we may

  286. not be waving years and dollars in your face, but we're waving little boys

  287. and little carols, and your brother and your sister pann of righteous Gus,

  288. Sir, are of righteousness in your house for time. But you shaid not

  289. be good bid for there. The Lord despises the haughtiness of some people.

  290. He despires us egotistical spirits and attitudes. He despises pride. I looked at

  291. people before that were struggling with pride, and I said, my God,

  292. what do they have to be powerful over? What do they have to be

  293. powerful about? I've seen people with noses as loneness, elephants and ears.

  294. This big, that's done. I've seen people here the normality and deep formality,

  295. so are not coming in? And I quit then com better than everybody

  296. answered. If you've got a big nonsense, you want a sound, offer

  297. that sucker still all my God, pick off, my God. I'm appearing

  298. the hole it goes, sweet Lamb of God. If you can't raise up

  299. your hands, you ought to raise up in big ears outside before it's just

  300. a loop. And I am really laughing inside. I am not at all

  301. being mean tonight that I am being very very serious. I'm gonna say it

  302. again. If that impostor named Jesus preaches to you in the other doctor,

  303. if the agel comes to you, somebody that you got company's here, somebody

  304. worn a clergy balancer, somebody's saying that it's Teesus when they preach us.

  305. But they look God for God. That is to trailery to your military.

  306. That is cat trailer to suffer, bastable. That's not the right, Jess

  307. Jesus Christ of Nazareth, boring to the Virgin Mary, as to what I

  308. saw, that's God that I serve. That he abased himself to be a

  309. baby. He could have came as God, then he could have died as

  310. the same. He came as a baby, and he did die as a

  311. man. But he was one hundred percent God. He was as much God

  312. then God in carne as he was man. But he humbled at himself.

  313. The Bible said, he subjected himself to the ultimate sacrificer, and he despised

  314. the shame for the joy that was set before him. He endured the cross.

  315. Oh, bless your little hard After church, you gotta get out and

  316. go speak to somebody to bless your little people the heart Jesus hang neck across

  317. for your sorry Papa, So holiness to the custom people. At some point,

  318. pray through insecurity. You ain't wound nothing in a while what you had

  319. behind Adam and Eve to not have connection with God because of what they're hide

  320. of the heart. You hide behind solid pride. You hideing behind solid peer.

  321. The Lord tis my prier. You don't still all torment. If you

  322. run acadam of soul, you are stilling the right hand across him and lovell.

  323. The Lord despises that heartiness and artistical behavior. I see it in the

  324. pool pits across America, around the globes, in every country, people in

  325. impoverish villagers. They become a preacher, and they're too haughty to wash the

  326. saint's feet. They become a preacher, and they're too proud for the House

  327. and Outreach ministry. They become a preacher. I'll come now, And they

  328. don't want to get their hands thirty. They don't want to help the least,

  329. the lost, and the lordly. Aren't you glad that Jesus step down

  330. the royal staircasement of Heaven and came down among dingon and dirty and managing,

  331. and roll up asleep and became servant of all of humanity. It has been

  332. said that we will have it our way. People were saying that before the

  333. CEOs and executives, a Burger King promise you you could pull up to a

  334. box and hear a voice come out of it and say, Hi, welcome

  335. to Burger King. You can have it your way. This afternoon's inspiration for

  336. tonight's message. I heard somebody ordering at what was seemingly a fast food store,

  337. and Brother Jesse, I guess it was some kind of burner key.

  338. And what I heard somebody saying over that loud speaker, nothing but a voice.

  339. You can have it your way. I don't care how your mama and

  340. daddy and your former pastors, preachers, teachers, or any other denomination or

  341. the Popa himself or any overseer tells you. It's supposed to be that we

  342. just sent in Church of the each his old death, and everybody just do

  343. their old time and had it your way. If you're gonna be a child

  344. of God, you're gonna be a God's way. It will never be said

  345. real have it my what. That's what we're dealing with right here tonight,

  346. sister woman. If I could get people to crucify that I ah. If

  347. I could get them to sacrifice, ah. If I could get them to

  348. say, Lord willing instead of I willing? What are you willing to do?

  349. I'm willing to do nothing. We should be a revival right now.

  350. The spirit of God should be moving right now. We should be preaching louder

  351. than the crickets are preaching. We should be saying Amen, louder than the

  352. crickets are saying, Amen, it has been said that we will not enter

  353. heaven with the same spirit of pride that caused Lucifer to be kicked out of

  354. heaven. How many of you believe that Heaven will allow one little ouncer of

  355. pride? They say, one little trump, for he is deadly God.

  356. No one little ouncer or one little preek, for Pride's d deadly pal.

  357. I'm going in texta. I say A four fourteen to twelve said, how

  358. art thou falling from Heaven? O Lucifer? How did that marriage end up

  359. in shambles? How did those kids end up addics? How did that nation

  360. end up collapsing and crumbling? How did that nation that did not fear God

  361. and did not respect him turning into hell? It started out so beautiful,

  362. It started out so pure, It started out so innocent. How art thou

  363. falling from heaven, Old Lucifer, Son of the Morning? How art thou

  364. cut down to the ground that about it? Are you really gonna continue to

  365. pamper and fostering that spirit and pride? Are you gonna pull out to the

  366. soul and the spirit and saying that spear of pride tonight? I preaching a

  367. son and a holding this time old her the five isa of Satan. Notice

  368. this here in lies the answer to this statement questions. If you'll look at

  369. that text that does not have question marks behind it, there are exclamation points.

  370. So we will say, why is these statement questions? For thou have

  371. said in thine own heart. You have not spoken it to dad or mama.

  372. You have not spoken it to your husband or your wife. You have

  373. not spoken it to the preacher. You have not spoken it to nobody.

  374. It's right in here. That spirit of pride is a bruming that's still that's

  375. in there. You've got a stillery that is pumping out, or every spirits

  376. up. The spirit of pride, they said, will ascend into heaven,

  377. A will exalt by tram by the stars of God. A will send also

  378. upon them now too on the congregation. You better be tackle just sitting there.

  379. I will a serial mother hats in the clouds. If I can't be

  380. center states when I sing, I just will not sing at all. I

  381. will be the most time. Oh no, you won't be. I will

  382. stab my pastor in the back to be just as annoyted as he was,

  383. even even do better than that. God. He printed David's hard not to

  384. text thoughts. A naughted, you better be courcy. Now we can state

  385. the concerning the morrow and time. How many times did Lucier say I will

  386. in that golden text? Five times he said I will. Five times he

  387. said I will. I will go to the lake on Sunday instead of gonna

  388. Sunday meeting. Oh, we will work some overtime instead of going to revive.

  389. Ah, we will have hide this seal a we wi't have to do

  390. this, and do that and changeater number four in less number fifteen. The

  391. apostle change swell forgot you ought to say it the Lord will we shout there

  392. but and be this from that. It's not what will you do, that's

  393. what you will do through him. The Apostle James, which was the pillar

  394. of the church. Paul he seemed to be, and he was. The

  395. apostle. James was reminding people of the early Church that they were to depend

  396. entirely on the Lord for their future. Sister Howill did not know what I

  397. was going to preach on. But our dependency is in the Lord. Every

  398. Christian in this building ought to be thinking that your dependency is the Lord.

  399. We sing that song. I don't know what I do without Jesus. I

  400. can't walk without Jesus. I can't talk without Jesus. There's a lot of

  401. people and some of them are just stuck the road at a clock to night,

  402. and they feel like they can walk without Jesus. They feel like they

  403. can talk without Jesus. They feel like they can make the me that's without

  404. Jesus. They feel like they can become popular without Jesus. The thought of

  405. a Christian is building tonight. Ought to be that I am reliant on Christ.

  406. That not that I'm totally self reliant. If self reliancy is enough,

  407. man, I've missed it. I can't even preach without Jesus. I can't

  408. even walk without Jesus. I can't even talk without Jesus. The great men

  409. of God, like Isaiah Knude that arrogant people are end up fallen out of

  410. good graces with God. Can somebody backslide back up? Absolutely? King saul

  411. a set of him that he was among the prophets, and a scent of

  412. him, that the spirit of God would move, and that he would bring

  413. great victories and deliverances to his people. But we know that he ate his

  414. last meal with the witch of him Lord, he fell out of good graces

  415. with God. Judas fell out of good graces with God because he chose to

  416. go that way. Now, if the Lord permits, we will have a

  417. move of God tonight. That the Lord permits, we will have somebody pray

  418. things through and the altar tone that the Lord permits. You can do all

  419. things through Him. I can do all things through Christ. You cannot do

  420. anything without Christ. I cannot shake your hand without God enabling me. I

  421. couldnot have a desire to commersate, communicate with you without God enabling me.

  422. Do you want to kill the spirit of pride? Do you? There needs

  423. to be a hurd in here to not Saintan needs to die. So what

  424. are we gonna do? If we're gonna priatorize, God's will must be number

  425. one, no matter how much it costs. We must make God's will our

  426. number one priority again, no matter how much pride it costs, no matter

  427. how much fear we have to conquer. I know that I had to give

  428. the center of God's will and move a little over two hours from home in

  429. order to be in the center of God's will. You can move out of

  430. your pew. You can get on your knees and bend them if you're able

  431. and not disabled. And God knows whether or not you're gettingabled or disabled.

  432. God knows if it's pride or not. I've seen them crippled, the halt

  433. and the laming and disabled trying to praise God. Wow, what's happened?

  434. The prinks and preacher loud, and you say, Amen, what's happened?

  435. The cat's got your tongue, That old tritile devil's got your tongue going Luke,

  436. Chapter number twenty two, Verse number forty two. Jesus, the Son

  437. of God, praying himself, He said, Father, if thou be willing

  438. remove this cup from me, nevertheless, not my will, but dying be

  439. done. Jesus was demonstrating to his disciples, then, when we put things

  440. in proper order, when we put the things of God first in our life,

  441. other things paul in order. How about at mama? How about at

  442. daddy? Do you want to be like your daddy? Do you want to

  443. be like your mama? Do you want your children to see that they did

  444. it that way you're gonna be with that way? Or do you want to

  445. be things differently. Let's put things in proper perspective. Let's put things in

  446. their proper places. Even Christ, the Son of God, the second part

  447. of the God, that was asking the father you have, but you're what.

  448. That's one of the problems of women throughout America today. And I don't

  449. preach much on that subvission, but they have an issue with submitting to their

  450. husband. And I get it. I get it. Some husbands are undeserving

  451. of subvission. If your husband ain't getting out there and hustling and working and

  452. trying to make things happen for you, you don't have to kiss his toe.

  453. If you're the only one working and making a living and he's sitting his

  454. butt on recliner all day long, you don't have to drag your hide in

  455. there and make supper. Right, He ought to make supper. You ought

  456. to roll out the red carpets they come on in here, Queen Well,

  457. less to look to us. I'm not asking anybody to get credit glory they

  458. don't deserve. But I am telling you God deserves credit. God deserves glory.

  459. Why do I keep bumping all of this? I have no idea,

  460. but I want God to have it His way. I know that that man

  461. is supposed to be the leader of his home. He's supposed to be the

  462. priest on his home. But the Bible also said concerning that woman, she's

  463. supposed to be chased. She's supposed to keep the hole. She's not supposed

  464. to let things unraveled. She's not supposed to let things fall apart. She's

  465. never supposed to tell the husband. Oh my God, I don't know if

  466. I want to serve God or not. What do you say? If you

  467. want to commit spiritual suicide? Don't you treat me with that. I don't

  468. tear your high wo that word. I said, you cut me. But

  469. byside than God, you just go ahead and do it. That's what as

  470. for me? Up, I don't he go ahead? They told the holiday

  471. you big back bully. I thought you couldn't talk. I thought you didn't

  472. even happy land her. No sense I said it this in your heart,

  473. lucupert, list in your heart. I look bers of the heart the mosstery.

  474. Then, husband, you are to my wife sees a right talk,

  475. Baba. Abuse is not pleasant. You're not to embarrass her in the public.

  476. This is not conducive for good family environments. This is not conducive for

  477. good church environments. That's why there's no longer moves of God taking place in

  478. locals assemblies, because the spirit of Pride he is priority there. We're all

  479. too good to greet the brother with a holy kiss. I'm not talking about

  480. kissing your brother on the lyft, but we're all too good. Man.

  481. There's some men and this fueling this stiff armed brother Jesse, Come here,

  482. brother Jesse, let me demonstrate. They have not than at all to be

  483. tackled a boat. But here's what they did, because they learned how to

  484. do that, how to chuck. It was actually a hell. But everybody

  485. want say that for pride, but nobody wanted to be that's my brother.

  486. So I'm got a ton of time to say cares. It's like this,

  487. really you want to be that line You remember that when you're in I cenu,

  488. when you're just and propred and you want in a tunny down and say

  489. you love mister step On. Pride is an ugly monster. Did not as

  490. well have ton eyes because all this concerned about his eye? Aye? This

  491. aye, that aye, this aye that I did. Yes, I'll have

  492. it, maling who cares about the divine institution of the home, of having

  493. a father and a mother and children. Ah will have two men, one

  494. of the men his father and one of the men his mother. That is

  495. not the plan of God. I feel the spirit of God in this place.

  496. I need you to pray for me. I want to behave and be

  497. sweet. That is an ugly spirit. Pride might as well have five eyes

  498. on the death of that monster. Listen, Jesus, the son of God

  499. went into the garden of Gseimine, fixing to pay the price for your sin.

  500. He did not want to do it. The man within Jesus said,

  501. I do not want to do it. Megan doesn't deserve it. Samuel doesn't

  502. deserve it. Jeremy doesn't deserve it. Philip, Yeah, he's gonna have

  503. chemo, but he doesn't deserve it. Demand nature of Jesus said, Thomas

  504. doesn't deserve this, but the God nature. I'm gonna go into the garden

  505. and I'm gonna pray, and I'm expecting the apostles to pray with me.

  506. My followers are gonna be in there with no one. They could not even

  507. watch with him for an hour. And why he's in there, He sends

  508. Father not my wheel, but gind me God. It does not matter what

  509. do you want to do. It matters what God walks in away. What

  510. I said, a maters what cover watching aday? Look care? What do

  511. you wanta do? Godless movement in this place, and you can kill the

  512. spirit of pride Jesus, what did he hook her over? But he collapsed

  513. and he struggled, just like constructling with that carnal will. And he said,

  514. nevertheless, and to the end of the day, here goes nothing.

  515. I will because you said to I will God, clap my hands. Because

  516. you said to I will shadow to God with the course of trife. Because

  517. he said to better feel a sister, Ceahl, I know that He has

  518. provided healing for your body. But to man, nature did not want to

  519. go through it. Most import of the man. Nature did not want to

  520. bear the sins or the red her pardon him, he'd know the wayess I'm

  521. to see it, but he know the just stick about this. I'm a

  522. guilt and shame, but he did it. He loved me anyway I love

  523. your pastor anyway I love your preacher. Anyway, Man, I've got about

  524. sick and tired of go into meetings and somebody that can't preach her way out

  525. of the wet paper bag, acting like there's somebody I've heard an old cardinal

  526. spirit inside of us, tries to shove back their cardinal spirit and say,

  527. but they ain't. None of us should be doing any of that. There

  528. should be any pride, and there should be any if you're blessed for the

  529. church where the people love you. Hey, sister, I did all the

  530. hopes I could from my sister go, I love your bless her. When

  531. the church praying your other brothers love one another. I would speak hands and

  532. slap one another over back on us, held as often as I could.

  533. Well, we didn't do it over there. Let me ask you a question.

  534. Did they have to uniting that were hard? Did I halt the miracles?

  535. But we had? Listen? Why is God not sitting in the throne

  536. room and upon the throne of your heart because you wanted your way? Lucifer

  537. attempted to dethrow God Almighty. It's the ludicrous The thought of it is crazy.

  538. But isn't crazy? When the Holy Gath speaks to us, it says,

  539. I'm gonna bless you if we say not today. Why can't he sit

  540. right there in the center of that soul. You're not your old You were

  541. bought with a great price. He sacrificed the earthly man his will that you

  542. might live. Your body is supposed to be the temple of the Holy.

  543. No, the eternal soul that is in that earthly tent of yours, come

  544. on, it belongs to God. The Bible said, all souls belong to

  545. God. In our gold in text we see where Lucifer was cast them.

  546. And I was thinking about this this afternoon. I was in my office praying

  547. over these notes, and they are tearstained, and I said, God,

  548. I am not going to suffer from caladis or nervousness while I preach, because

  549. that spirit of pride wants to take out the spirit of God. You might

  550. not think that your body language is throwing dark sat God. You might not

  551. think your absence of involvement in the service, and your rebellion, and your

  552. stubbornnessness in your heart, it's not being noticed by God. The sun in

  553. the morning. You may appeared about our definition of rightness up. You may

  554. be my definition of beautiful. You may have been by definition all together lovely

  555. sun in the morning. But I want you to know, Gop cast your

  556. son now, I said, Todd, he passed up so down. I

  557. don't want to be set Their son went down because of pride. Ah God,

  558. ah God. It needs to be him him him, him him,

  559. Because I was praying this afternoon, the Lord said, my son, notice

  560. that Lucifer was cast down. He did not slip on a banana pill.

  561. He did not stumble accident. That he was thrown down. And I want

  562. you to know. It's only a matter of time that every child of mine

  563. have a son old mind, have a dollar long mind, have a son

  564. yours, have a son long yours and old and old, and Lord that

  565. they fall if they do not get ptra her over something. Right now,

  566. he's asking me, do a really believer, it's pride, Pride to appear

  567. to be sleep holy dels, Pride to appear to be manipolative at the septa.

  568. How do you even know they've been dining with a devil while you're going

  569. at them, you know, ain't careful. And that's through the tide rise

  570. up a cod preaching us like that pizza pride. I stuffed downe and showered

  571. this afternoon, and that going in the corner of my soul bouncing off on

  572. one wall, upon the next one, bouncing off the next one and to

  573. the other one. Was Samuel Howell's message. Brother Samuel, you owned that

  574. little horse. Now what was the title of that message? Get off your

  575. stick to one got too big? Bre your riches? So what God uses

  576. you? So what God annoints you highly to preach? So what God annoants

  577. you to have a wonderful personality that is in Texas and contagious? So what's

  578. your good looking? So what God's given you a beautiful voice? So what

  579. God's given you a lot of talented pr come on outter lot puts in another

  580. hour to night and throwing bodies about to work out Why you just sit there

  581. looking through the entire pope. There ain't no way I'd ever get sweated like

  582. that. That's right. You're not that guy that would run in front of

  583. the Amtrak train to say somebody else as child that I have got God.

  584. They can sit there in a view roll they want to and take their shoes

  585. off and kick back and that plot. There's got cars for emergency. They

  586. can sit back there and trim their fing nails. They over there and to

  587. put their foot up there and trim their toenails and act like there's no reason

  588. to get upset. But I'm the one that would jump in front of the

  589. train for me and push your child to safety and have railroad tracks on my

  590. back. Come on down, I said, I feel right here to not

  591. I feel out there, son trying to let the devil run slam over me

  592. while you pretend out you're not fighting back to steal the pie who go to

  593. cheat? Miss a pool for a holy doors if you can get the over

  594. pride, it talks a roll out rather talk about credits. I'm a stucks.

  595. Come here and ask for brothering luck that's on top and all the law.

  596. I mean that couldn't a god because they're pulling Pride. And here's what

  597. they say. Is that really necessary? Sure it is? Sure it is.

  598. After his fall, Lucifer became known as the Devil. My Jesus,

  599. say out, just a handful of your giftness tonight. I've got about five

  600. or six falling and the squalling and praying for me, and I've got others

  601. just sitting there just as cold and just as lifeless. Why is she doing

  602. it? It's a heart issue. Pride was Lucifer's downfall. Pride was the

  603. down fall King Saul. He lives. I don't care how sweet she is

  604. at the house. I don't care how sweet he is at the house.

  605. So he bring you a dozen roses every day he sent in the house of

  606. God. And be just as arrogant, egotistical, and prideful. Mother can

  607. be slapping your belly full of biscuits and honey, and she can have conjured

  608. up or planned, and you're so stupid an aid not to know it,

  609. because you're so conceited and gatistical. You never do wrong. It's never I

  610. have sin, I did wrong, I'm mistaken. It's always I will be

  611. right, I will get the last word. I will go home and discuss

  612. this and that preach us wrong, Oh Sun, what your lost? God?

  613. We killed us through the pride years ago. We know long war praying

  614. to be June's stuff. Cod we have got ahole way spend this way.

  615. Finally we said, I must increase. I must decrease so that we all

  616. increase. I must think somebody to that. Decrease yourself, Increase yourself.

  617. They trace rself Satan. Because of his pride, he has an eternal abode

  618. that was prepared for him. Let's call the Lake of Tire. And you

  619. know what he wants to do. He wants to take us all there with

  620. him. I just heard the Holy Ghost check me. I want to point

  621. this out to Jesus taught us to deny ourselves. Jesus taught us to deny

  622. ourselves. Say wants you to satisfy yourself. And Satan told me right now

  623. not to pray. I'm gonna pray, Brother Jesse. You're in that new

  624. Sunday school superintendent position today, you've opened up service. I bowed my head

  625. for us to pray, and I realized, Brother Jessey, forgot to have

  626. everybody pray before Sunday school. Probably nobody else in this building praying, Brother

  627. Jesse, But here your pastor is right over there in the office, listening

  628. every word you're saying. And I bowed my head waiting on the prayer.

  629. There was no pencil pushing that should be done. I was to be reverent

  630. while that prayer was being prayed, while our Sunday school superintendent let us in

  631. prayer. I went ahead and say, God help our teachers, God help

  632. our students. Hey, come on, now, this alter is for us

  633. to decase out. I preach it this morning. God was gonna provide us

  634. with comfort, but he didn't promise us a cushy situation or a cozy situation.

  635. What is the reason for all of the wickedness in the world today?

  636. Selfishness? Pride? Luke, Chapter number ten, verse number eighteen. Jesus

  637. said he saw satan fall lightning from heaven lucifer sun in the morning. You

  638. used to be so bright, You used to have such a fair complexion.

  639. You used to be so beautiful. Also in the New Testament, they said,

  640. concerning the devils, they can transform themselves into angels of light and husbands.

  641. You guys, listen to me. They can sit there and look just

  642. as innocent as a house while they're making you a peanut butter and jelly.

  643. And that's all that matters is you're gonna patch your belly and put them some

  644. milk. Can you say what an angel is? This is why you bring

  645. her to church where your pastor can tell her, just like I told my

  646. wife, and just like I'm gonna tell yours. Flat footed right here,

  647. we have to deal with pride and fear just because she's making you a peanut

  648. butter pie, don't make her an angel. I wish the Church of say

  649. Amen. I've seen some pretty wicked people make some pretty good sundays down there

  650. at Fairy Queen. I've seen some waiters and waitresses at the restaurant be very

  651. nice to Sister Howl and I because they had an ontarior motive. It's called

  652. tippage. Pride is what's keeping you from victory and secondly fear. And I

  653. do feel like God is looking now to see what we will do. I

  654. will obey, I will old bay husband's again. It's not for you to

  655. torment your wife or make them feel that tall wife. Your husband is not

  656. your enemy. But the Bible said only by pride come contention. If you're

  657. having marital issues and strife in that relationship. The toxicity in that relationship is

  658. not that you're of the will of God, has not that you two are

  659. wonderful people. It says it comes through pride. If you're fussing and fighting,

  660. it's been called somebody will not crucify their pride. Now, you might

  661. use this as an example because you're a great mister. A twisting scripture.

  662. Twist and what I say and I can come over here and sit my sister

  663. house say scoop now, And she's got a spirit of price. You say,

  664. who do you think you are to tell me to scoop down right front

  665. of sixty six people. But I have told sister how many a time,

  666. Honey, I'm sorry. And I've never talked about my wife in public life.

  667. She's a piece of traps. We have had behind the closed door meetings

  668. and talked about things. But these howl children do not know what it is

  669. for dad to slam a door. These howl children are never allowed to slam

  670. a door in my house. They weren't allowed to slam a bedroom door.

  671. They weren't allowed to slam a vehicle door. They weren't allowed. I'm telling

  672. you this stuff God dealt with me this afternoon. It comes through pride.

  673. But there's been times I've looked at this lady right here and said, honey,

  674. I'm sorry. I'm the head of the household. But if you do

  675. that in front of your children, the Bible said, either so do,

  676. the wind's gonna read the world within you slam that door today, it's gonna

  677. be your baby slamming it tomorrow. But there's been times I said charity,

  678. you know what. Neither one of us is right or sometimes to say charity,

  679. you know what? Do right now? I'm wrong. This may not

  680. be the Shelton message tonight that we all want it or that we expect of.

  681. But this will keep our families together. This will keep our marriages in

  682. tact. This will keep our pastor in the pulpit. Do you realize if

  683. I got a haughty spirit about myself and said, oh I could do something

  684. else, I deserve better. I deserve to be We need the spirit of

  685. Naomi, we need the spirit of Esther and says I'm content to dwell among

  686. my home people. You do realize where God puts you and place you and

  687. your performance ought to be great. This is fruit. I'm not asking everybody

  688. to be a Rachel how well. I'm not asking everybody to be this or

  689. be that. I'm not asking everybody to be multi talented my brother Jesse,

  690. our brother e Ja. But I am telling you there is something that I

  691. can do. I don't want to kill this, but every time I get

  692. in this poolpit and I exhort and I push, knowing somebody's gonna go home

  693. choking down a big mac having it their way and say, oh he in

  694. the Q. He just long winded. I had to crucify my pride and

  695. say, you know what, I'm willing to get sloppy with its wet sweating.

  696. I'm willing I'm a nobody. Let's clarify that I'm a nobody. I'm

  697. the least person in this building. But Lucifer, he would say, I'm

  698. the greatest person in this building. I will, I will, I will,

  699. I will, I will. There's some of you you think you're king.

  700. You go to the restaurant and you talk to them waiters and waitresses like

  701. your royalty. It's like you expect them to hand squeen the grapes and your

  702. glass. That's pride. You talked to them like they're a dog, because

  703. in your heart you're living like a king. But Richard Jacob told me this

  704. morning. He said, I went to a restaurant and I was speaking to

  705. a waitress and said, she knows my pastor and my pastor's wife and brother.

  706. Richard said, well, so and so they know you, And she

  707. said what they know me? They know my name, they know who I

  708. am. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wanted to be said that he

  709. was his friend it has been said of a man in this building. I

  710. churched for them for years and did not even know them. Wow. Really,

  711. there is a powerful spirit of the hold that ghost in this building.

  712. Do you want it to be said? It's your funeral? You know what.

  713. I went to church with this guy for twenty years and he was too

  714. good to speak. And when you start stuttering like Elmer flu and you say

  715. that's why I don't talk to people, it simply means you ain't done it

  716. enough here, because I've seen you flapping them jaws have public when you didn't

  717. know. I saw you when you had no speech impediment, when you had

  718. no problem talking in general public. If you're getting on the phone and you're

  719. glabbing it more than you can care on a conversation with this lady right here.

  720. If you tell the center in the isle of Walmart or in the isle

  721. of the CBS pharmacy more about what's going on than you do right here in

  722. the altar to God, you've got major issues. It's called pride. I

  723. will do it my way. The pastor will ask us to do it this

  724. way because he feels like God let us to do it this way. But

  725. I will do it my way. If everybody comes into the new Sanctuary in

  726. this door, I'm gonna come in this one. If everybody parks over here,

  727. I'm gonna park over here where there's no parking lot. It is what

  728. it is. I will have it my way. The five eyes of Satan.

  729. Do you realize that every menace of society and every monster of society was

  730. selfish? Those men have brutally murdered people's sons and daughters. They had selfish

  731. motives. I can hear the cricket preacher, they saying. Any now,

  732. right now, I'm weak in body. I don't need to be a friendly

  733. to me after the service that. I need you to be afriended to God

  734. and friendly to your brother and sister, and I need you to be merciful

  735. to these children. I've seen people start attending here, and they come here

  736. with a chip on their shoulder, and they have them evil surmises and have

  737. confused notions, and they just assumed that this is some sort of competition,

  738. and they assumed that this is kind of environment they come out of, and

  739. they assume in order to keep from having your head bit off by the neighbor

  740. sitting on that put next to you. You gotta act like you don't care

  741. about anybody. You gotta act like you don't care for anyone, and you

  742. gotta act like to each his own. That's not how we operate here.

  743. And the good news is that's not how they operate in heaven. You may

  744. not like this, and this may hair let Grandma, but Heaven will be

  745. a multi national congregation. The black brother is gonna shout glory to God with

  746. a white brother. The yellow brother is gonna shout glory to God with the

  747. redskin brother. All sweet Lamb of God, I feel the Holy Ghost in

  748. this place. We have to get rid of these partialities. We're supposed to

  749. be impartial. Well, I'm gonna shake their hand because they're wearing dainty jewels

  750. dress. Y'all don't think that's biblical, do you. I'm gonna shake their

  751. hand because they're wearing Stacy Atum shoes. That's what Jesus said. You see

  752. that when come in into doors's clothing. You see that when a raid and

  753. that beautiful, beautiful, beautiful decorative gown and suddenly you want to be friends

  754. with that person. Right, whatever it is, it's either spirit of fear

  755. or spirit of pride. Let's stand tonight to give our musicians a break.

  756. There will be no musicians, there will be no ultra shit of singing.

  757. We will all search our heart. I don't know that there's even two or

  758. three. Perhaps I'm only preaching to one tonight. I don't know that there's

  759. a handful of people tonight that needed to hear this specif. But I believe

  760. it or benefit all of us down the road. Brother Caleb, you feel

  761. like getting up in the morning at four o'clock, not really right, but

  762. you know what you say, if he will help me, I will do.

  763. Y'all think that I felt like preaching to night. Anybody that can read

  764. my body language and knows I did not at all fell up to it in

  765. body. I was absent of strength that the Holy goes help me. Yes,

  766. And I'm trying to tell you. You may not feel like praying your

  767. tonight, but you should do it. You may not feel like kneeling down

  768. in that few somewhere and praying about in your head, but you should do

  769. it. Jesus use me, Oh Lord, don't refuse me. For surely

  770. there's something that I could do. And even though it's humble, Lord,

  771. help my will to crumble. Though the costs be great, I'll work for

  772. you, Lord. I really don't feel like gets sweaty again. I really

  773. don't feel like collapsing in the reclader tonight. I really don't feel like having

  774. a hard time tomorrow with weakness, weaknesses and knees. But it's very needful.

  775. I feel like tonight's message is going to be instrumental if you allow it,

  776. and saving spiritual lives, marriages, homes, and families. How do

  777. you know, Because Sister Hell and I we had to learn how to humble

  778. ourself. There is nothing beautiful about two rams button heads all day long.

  779. I've seen it. People thinks it's funny and they think it's cute. But

  780. when Cain kills Abel, Mom and Dad Vickory busting and find Dad, the

  781. Howl kids know nothing of Dad slamming the door, getting in a car and

  782. disappearing for six to eight hours, or over nine or for two to three

  783. days. I've told the Howl boys and the daughter in laws, you're ever

  784. at your WIT's end and you're going through a turble. Wi't you say one

  785. word to me about it? If you're in over your head in any way,

  786. you show up where I'm at and you just hang out for thirty minutes

  787. or two an hour. You're going through things on the job, or health

  788. issues, or you just need to be near somebody that cares. You just

  789. come over there where I care. I don't know of anything whatsoever that has

  790. happened or taking place. But brother Philip, I know this afternoon that God

  791. took sleep from me. I was sound to sleep, hurt myself. Song

  792. in miles. God's mindful of somebody. But unfortunately, brother Nathaniel, the

  793. Lord was pointing out they got their own kingdom. Now I wanted to demonstrate

  794. to you, or was we get ready to come to the altar? Trade

  795. in our seats and man, you look great. This is a beautiful crowd.

  796. You all. Think of how productive I would be if I sit right

  797. here and watched you owe every service for hours. Occasionally I raised my hand.

  798. There's no pride more damning than devils, than a silent pride. And

  799. I'm going to say this again. When Luciffer fell, we didn't slip on

  800. a banana piel. You're choosing to do these things, and the reason why

  801. you're making bad choices is the same reasons as to howld struggle because her dad

  802. law made bad choices, she grew up and divided home. She grew up

  803. in a home where daddy was never home because by and Dad always fussed the

  804. fault. That's not norm. It didn't take but her a couple of years

  805. to realize that's not how it's going to be in the Jeremy home. Brother

  806. Philip, you look great, paull headed. Do y'all know that Brother Philip

  807. crucified pride when he accept the chemotherapy treatment and he lost his hair. That's

  808. a tough lesson to learn it. And brother Philip, y'all didn't hear what

  809. he said as he started losing it. He's full of the Holy ghost,

  810. fool the spirit of God. But he said that hair is all always been

  811. my baby. God took it, didn't he? And Mama I used to

  812. hear them on the Church of God preachers say, don't you let that baby

  813. be your pride and joy is God will take that baby. I can't bear

  814. the fault of that. Whatever you on a pedestal, think about this moment.

  815. Do you really not want to hand that baby off like quarterback hands of

  816. football off to a running back when God's moving. You know, anything that

  817. comes between you and God's and idol, you do realize you're making that baby

  818. come between you and God. Y'all may not want to believe this, and

  819. I don't care what you believe. You're entitled to your opinion. But in

  820. my ministry, there's been times I've heard the Lord say, if you make

  821. that turn and go down that road, your kids will suffer the consequences.

  822. And I said, God, but I made the decision. The bad decision

  823. will be mine. He said that your kids will pay the price. My

  824. brother Jesse, There's been times even in ministry, I had to back up

  825. and say, you know what, pastor in that bigger church might sound great

  826. to me, but it's not what God wants. And so Lord, not

  827. my will, but dying be done. I feel like we just need to

  828. find a place to pray. If it's in the fetor of the altar,

  829. I feel like somebody needs to just kill the spirit of fear and the spirit

  830. of pride. Lucifer. I will, I will, I will, I

  831. will, I will be saying I will be the big name of Angelis,

  832. I will be the big pastor, I will be the musician I will be

  833. the senior, I will be the teacher. I will be that saint,

  834. and I will be this person or perhaps this on the other side of the

  835. structure. I will do it my way. I will take my path.

  836. I will choose to do what I want to do. Somebody right now needs

  837. to say, God, take this pride, Take this pride out with me.

  838. Help me to humble myself, to deny myself. Here's what Jesus said.

  839. Take up that cross, deny yourself. Take up that cross and follow

  840. me. Preacher, you gotta be humble. Oh, it's not about us,

  841. It's about Jesus. It's about them. Oh. I know. It's

  842. not a shout message tonight. It's a humbling message. Self abasement, not

  843. self exultation. Jesus, not by the real I know of five people in

  844. the last ten minutes that God has helped greatly and immensely. Where you seek

  845. God right now, say take me Jesus molded, fashion me in likeness in

  846. new life. Take me Lord boldly. I don't want to be the same.

  847. Change me. I want to be like you, Jesus, Jesus,

  848. Oh God, Oh God, oh God, oh Jesus. Oh, it

  849. won't be said and slept. The devil won't average your ways. That's a

  850. trick of the devil for what it is good, it's a trick of it

  851. only by bride.
