Has your soul been made whole? - Bro Jeremy Howell 8-30-2023

The Lord has done for us right here in the service tonight. I'm so

thankful for it. I appreciate your prayers. I appreciate you praying one for

another. You have pulling partners, people right here in this building that are

pulling the card of life with you. I'm so thankful that on that cart

is the ark of God, the spirit of God. You also have prayer

partners, folks that are praying with you. We saw this demonstrated just a

little while ago as you all prayed for one another. Certainly, there are

many needs throughout the Body of Christ corporately worldwide. There are many needs.

I'm telling you. The devil has just commanded an onslaught from Hell to attack

the Church. The strategy of Satan is to wear out the righteous, to

make them weary in the battle. This is not a playground that we stand

on tonight. We're standing on a battle field. This earth that we call

the planet Earth, and this solar system. It is literally a battle field

the forces of good versus the forces of evil. And I'm glad you've decided

you're on the good side. Somebody said, how do you know the side

that you all are on is the good side? Well, I can tell

you when I read this word of God, and it is his word,

I believe that we have aligned our lives, our speech, our manners,

our methods, and everything in line with the things that are good. The

Bible said there would be a generation that got it mixed up and called good

things evil things and evil things good things. But I do believe we're on

the good side, fighting for the right. And as Brother Samuel said,

we can call on Jesus anytime, and I'm so thankful his name is a

strong tower that the righteous run into and are safe. I feel like it

materializes at any place, at any time, at any moment. When we

called upon the name of the Lord, we activate the spirit of God.

The good holy ghost forms that mighty fortress that we're able to enter in.

And oh, yes, the enemy is certainly surrounding the people of God and

trying to wear them out. But as long as you remain in that safe

tower, there's provision enough in this life. You pilgrims, stay in the

tower. You got your pulling partners in there, your prayer partners in there.

Stay in that strong tower. Jesus will wear your enemy out before they

wear you out. I can assure you that because the old prophet asked the

Lord to open the eyes of the young minister, and whatever his eyes were

open, he was able to see that the age of the Lord doesn't and

camp around about those that fear the Lord, and that the enemy is outnumbered.

I was praying a little while ago, I said, God, this

is your people praying. I said, undoubtedly, there's been times they've been

outwitted by the devil, but the devil has never outwitted you, God.

And that's why we need the Holy Ghost. We need the spirit of God

to come in. I ask you to just pray more than you ever have

before about allowing him to live inside of you. Be possessed of the Holy

Ghost. And you say that makes me feel uncomfortable to be possessed by someone,

Well, your soul already belongs to God. So just let the Holy

Ghost take up a residency in that temple that already belongs to him. There's

so many people to following their temple that above their door post as the word

Ichabod, God is nowhere around. Inside of their being has long been since

vacated that and the Bible said, if God vacates such a place, the

devil comes in and he brings a bunch of his buddies. So it'd be

all right with me if God just possessed take full possession of your spirit,

heart buying soul, body, take full possession of the Bethel Holiness Church.

Would you love or God to continue to say this is holy ground. I

know we can't make a holy cow out of furniture and things like that,

but you know, I do believe that this eleven fifty three Cornelion Drive the

Belle, Florida is a holy place. I feel like this piece of real

estate has been designated by the Lord to be a soul saving station, also

a health clinic, a place where people come and they are healed of all

of their diseases. Assist. How Will made reference to something that happened to

me today. I haven't ever had this happen. I guess I've always had

a really strong back, and I can't think of anything that I've done that

would have caused me to throw my back out, as the old timers would

say. But I've been down in my back all day long. I wasn't

really planning on preaching up until during the scene. I'm always prepared to preach.

I've got a notebook in my office with sermons that I've worked on as

God lays things on my heart. Sister Hannah can witness and testify say that

today during lunch, I cried and said that God had given me something to

preach, and I texted myself rather than eat for a while. Just's things

that were coming to me. So I'm always ready, Brother Nathaniel, to

preach, but my notebook is in the office. I do not consider myself

to be numbered among the brethren that take great pleasure in coming unprepared. I

am among that camp that likes to be prepared. I like to have a

few notes here and there. I don't rely upon them. People have told

me you don't stand on top of your notebook very long. Do yes and

no? But I like to have something to fall back on too. And

I like to be studious. Do you all know that studious? I might

to study to show myself approved unto God, not unto my brethren, not

to outdo somebody, outperformed somebody. This isn't a performance or is it a

competition. But I do like to show myself approved unto God. A workman

that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. I

don't want to go home tonight when it's just me and God upon the bed

and say, Lord, I feeled you. I feeled your people because I

was unprepared. Sister would prepared something for me. I've told you all this.

I've said that every service, just about there's something that gets left for

me at my office door. It's a card a lot of times, it's

a cake. It's a box of brownies, cookies, drinks, funny type

drinks, just different things. Pete flavored pepsis just you. Folks are good

to me. And I was down in my back, sitting in that chair,

and her knock sounded just like the first ladies, just like sister how

And I said, you know, ordinarily I would not answer that door because

on my door it says do not disturb it. I remember her and I

had a prior agreement that she would show up at that door this Wednesday,

and I'd forgot about it. And I said, that sounds like the first

lady's knock. She knows my condition. I'm down in my back. It

pains me to do anything whatsoever, and it must be urging. So I

got up and opened the door, and Sister wooding. The look on my

face was a look of surprise, and I was startled because I thought it

was sister how it was sister wooting them. My sister wood was being just

as sweet because in her hands was as heavy lemon pound cake, if I

noticed it correctly, in a jar full of homemade blue tata. I'm telling

you, I was just tempted to hang out in the office, be down

in my back, said in my office chair, with the door crack,

and have all these preachers just preach and snack. I could get by with

it. You know that you wouldn't even known it. But I'm glad I'm

in the house of God, and I feel like dear and the congregational singing

actresses to how obeyed the Lord. I feel like the Lord gave me something

specific for people in this building. And we may or may not be long,

who knows. I don't have any co text with this at this time.

We'll see how the Holy Ghost leads us. So again, I'm not

numbered among my dear brethren to take great pride and joy and being unprepared.

And I know what they would say to that. They would say they read

their Bible continually, and they study and they pray and they preach without that's

great, so do why so we're fixing to see that. But there's been

some of those guys, Brother Nathaniel, I wish they had to wrote some

things down, because they come to preach on heedling. Two minutes later they

were preaching on salvation. Two minutes after that, they were preaching on sanctification.

Three minutes after that they were preaching on the Holy ghost baptism. Five

minutes later they were blistering everybody about holiness. And then whenever I went home,

I said, they were not on topic, and so may I stay

on topic something that the Lord gave me less than thirty minutes ago, and

I was familiar with this chapter of the Bible. Matt Director attention to Saint

Luke's Gospel, chapter number seventeen. We will begin a reading in verse number

eleven. You all look great tonight, just a good crowd souls that belonged

to God. This lets me know that he is still in business. He's

still in business. We visited Branson, Missouri. Brother Philip and I went

up there just recently to celebrate his upcoming marriage to sister Elizabeth, and there

were a couple of places that we were expecting to visit, Brotherwood, that

were out of business. There were other places that were yell in business.

A man, how many of you know God's still in business. I look

out here and see God is still saving souls. About sixty something people blood

balled, happy to be in church, one with another, shouting like you

all did, getting in the spirit and the power of God blessing you.

As Sister Howwell said, in the last few weeks, it seems like all

of our preachers have been pulling partners. There's too many of you to name,

but every time you testified, exorder or preachers, seem like we've all

been yoked up. We're not like those guys that are part of the ecumenical

church or movement. They trying to yoke up with people of all different faiths

and denominations, and they're gonna have conflict. Brother, just you, that's

like trying to put a oxen with a donkey. You know, they're unequally

yoked. But it's been so good to have these preacher brethren be yoked up

right here with me, pulling with me, and they I've been putting an

emphasis on seeking the Lord and making the lords your first priority. And I

could tell that tonight was Sister Howell was testifying and challenging this younger generation about

prayer. Sister whooping, I could smell the old smelly possum of condemnation.

I could smell the old smelly possum of condemnation. You know, the old

possums. They're ugly and they are stinky. They're a nasty only creature.

And I could smell that old, nasty possum of condemnation. Can you come

in here Sunday morning without condemnation and say I have prayed? Sister Hannah said,

well, Dad, what did you do to your back before we left

the house? Because I could barely walk, just take baby steps, you

know, And she said, pray? Is that what she did? Prayer?

I said, well, come to think of it, I did sit

in my bedroom floor for about two hours last night, Indian style, which

is a no no when you're almost fifty years of age, and prayed for

about two hours. And then I found myself bending way over Brother Nathaniel like

the old patriarchs would do, put the head between the knees, And I

thought man Today's coming when I could no longer do this, just you know,

get into fetal position and pray and groan and travail, and I thought

maybe I did injure it while I was praying. I can't think of what

I've done, but I do know that I felt a little bit of strength

when you all were praying. When Brother Staret said, hey, push pastor

forward and let's pray for him, I did feel some strength and I did

feel a touch. I can't say that I'm healed, i'd be lying,

but I did feel some strength in my body. So it's Sister Howell.

She challenged you to listen to what the preachers have been saying and get past

that point of condemnation. So we see that the devil is not letting up,

so you might as well join us and help us. How many of

you know if you're pushing an apple cart uphill, it's easier if you have

ten people versus one. Do you all know that I remember these two young

men years ago, realize that they did not know how to drive a stick

shift? How many of you old timers know what it is to drive a

stick shift? Anybody a manual transmission just a few of you. How about

driving a stick shift if you will. That's in the console of the dash,

I mean up there in the steering column. Anybody. Yeah, there's

only a handful of us that's ever done that. But these young men got

into their grandpa's truck, and then they got into other vehicles, and they

were doing pretty good learning how to operate that motor vehicle that had the manual

transmission. But they could not find a reverse and so one of these young

men spent his time all day long pushing that vehicle back while they the guy

push the clutch in or put it in neutral, and they backed up.

Now that's a sight to behold, Brother Jeremy. All the man had to

do was just learn how to put it in reverse, dump the clutch,

seller push the accelerator, and back up. But brother Tyler, he worked

that brother hard all day long. And so at the end of the day,

the old brother said, I'm down on my back. My back's hurting

me. You've caused me to injure something because of me having to push you

in reverse. Now, and you'll get the spiritual application of that at some

point during this message or tomorrow next week. We need you to help us

push. We need you to get out and help us push. And then

also we don't need you holding the break. We don't need you not learning

how to put it in reverse and back up and go forward. We need

you to figure out that we need you to the church. Say, amen,

we need you to figure out that we need you. Amen. All

right, let's look at this which you stand for the reading of the Word

of the Lord. Saint Luke's Gospel, chapter number seventeen, beginning with verse

number eleven. This is a narrative regarding the ten Lepers, a narrative about

leprous people. The Bible said, and it came to pass as he went

to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee, and

as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were

lepers, which stood afar off, and they lifted up their voices and said,

Jesus Master, have mercy on us. And when he saw them,

he said, unto them, go shoot yourself, unto the priest. And

it came to pass that as they went they were cleansed. And one of

them, when he saw that he was held, turned back and with a

loud voice glorified God and fell down on his face at his speed, giving

him things that he was a Samaritan. And Jesus answering said, were there

not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? There are not found that

returned to give glory to God saved this stranger again. He said, unto

him, arise, go thy way, Thy faith hath made thee whole.

Could we pray, Heavenly Father, we thank you for the opportunity to be

in the house of the Lord. I thank you God for this thy people.

I thank you for the way that you have helped them in this service

tonight. Lord, I know this some of them a little bit uneasy about

me attempting to preach. Being down in my back, Lord, I asked

you to just help them have off. It's in you the same way I

do that. You'll take care of me because you take care of yours.

Help me, Lord, anoint me. Help me to say only the things

you would have me to say, nothing more or less. Annoint the people.

I pray, help them to hear what the spirit saith under the church,

and maybe depart this place joyfully and not sorrowfully. In Jesus name,

Amen, you may be seated, look at your neighbor and say, hey,

neighbor, has your soul been made whole? Hey neighbor, has your

soul been made whole? As you are were praying one for another, the

Holy Ghost spoke those words into my heart. Has your soul been made humble?

Those of you that know anything about Saint Luke's gospel, you know that

the author of this gospel is a position, one that was admired by all

of his patience and the people with in his community. He is known as

the Beloved Physician. If I was living in this day and time and in

this town, I would have selected Luke to be my doctor. And I

would have been disappointed when I found out that he had abandoned his practice to

tether himself to great men of God in order to further or advance this Gospel

of Jesus Christ. I would have been disappointed to have found that I have

to do some research and find out if there's a doctor equal to this man.

I mean, when you earned the status of beloved physician, you know

he's not a hack and white job like that. When the sister Howell had

that was delivering our firstborn son after brother Jeremiah had been born a nurse.

Come into our room with this deer in the headlight expression, and her eyes

were as big as saucers as the old timers used to say. And she'd

say, Wow, that was rough, that was a wild experience, as

she looked at sus To Howel and I and said, I am so sorry

for the way that doctor acted. His bedside manners were horrible. He jerked

your wife around like a piece of meetings. He was just so disrespectful.

She said, I can't stand this man. And I remember having a forgiven

spirit and a rooken heart for that particular man because in our time of need

and crisis, he didn't know how to rein in his emotions. I feel

like this man Luke had reined in his emotions. And those of you that

are in this building that know anything about humanity, you know that each individual

within humanity has a spirit, they have a soul, and they have a

body. God has gifted us with these things that I thank the Lord that

we have a spirit, a soul that belongs to God, and a physical

body that is beginning to break down the very moment that you breathe the breath

of life, when you were brought into this world between your mother's knees,

and you gasp for air, your body begin to die. And you know,

the Bible has talked to us a little bit right here in the seventeenth

chapter about leprosy. I know that there's a lot of people today, Brother

Nathaniel, that know nothing about leprosy. But missionaries that have been on the

mission field, especially those that have been the Third World countries, we know

all too well that every now and then you will run into somebody that has

leprosy. And if I understand it correctly, it is highly contagious. And

they have taught the people to stay on the outside, and so they develop

this anti social mentality because they are unaccepted by their peers. I feel like

I'm going to talk to somebody here tonight. There's a reason why you feel

like you're an outsider. There's a reason why a revival after revival, you

wonder why did I not find myself as the three that was so close to

Jesus. They're like John the Beloved that found himself leading on the bosom of

Jesus. Why do I continually find myself on the outside of the outskirts of

the church. Even though you're in the building. You can tell your present

in body, but your soulless you can tell that your spirit is not in

the service. So one third of your person is in the service, and

the other two thirds or somewhere else. I don't know if they're on the

job, or they're out there in the world, or they're caught up in

a mess of Perhaps you're just sin sick. You know, the Bible spoke

of sin being like an unto lepers. Those of you that have studied the

Bible, you know that leprosy is a type of sin. Sin is a

type of leprosy. They're a parallel. And we find, Brother to Samuel,

that there's ten men here that are finding themselves to be anti social.

They probably don't even understand the things that are going on in the city Puli.

They're relying on words to come to their ears at a distance. You

and I are blessed to be able to be sitting right here locally in the

presence of Jesus Christ among brothers and sisters. Despite whatever might be going on

inside of you. You may be saved and sactified and holy ghost field,

or you might be living in condemnation, or you might be ate up with

sin, but you're allowed to be here. God has not called for the

church to be segregated. God's allowing the infidel to come into the House of

Lord among the believer. God's allowing those that have been disobedient to come in

and mix and mingle with the obedient. Because God is hoping and we are

hoping. You know the Bible that you will pray. The Bible said that

God is not willing that anybody should perish. God's unwilling that you would lose

out with him. God's unwilling that you would lose your soul. God's unwilling

that you would barter with a devil and exchange that soul for frivolous things.

God does not desire that. God doesn't want to see you spend an eternity

in a devil's hell. Nor does God want to see you trippting on the

outskirts of Christian society or among the family of God. God doesn't want you

to be having to peak to the glorious things that are taking place. God

doesn't want your back up against the wall when the Holy Ghost is moving.

During worship services and prayer services, but there's an ugly thing called sin that

keeps us from coming within the house of God. Sin keeps us come from

coming within the presence of God. I've already said that there was some of

you tonight. You smelled by that old, sour, slimy, smelly possum

of condemnation. It is not the pleasant aroma to the people of God or

Jesus Christ. And I know that these lepers as they came around these people,

immediately the stitch would be recognizable that these people were lepers, even though

they had not come within proximity of the Church or the body of Christ or

the believers. They were smelling or not listening to me. There was something

distasteful about their appearance. There was something unpleasant about to odor emitting from their

body. And sin has this way about it. You don't have to be

an alcoholic to be unpleasant to be around. You don't have to be a

drug addic to be displeasing to the Lord or to the body of Christ.

I've already said it. God is not glory or gloating in your simple condition.

God does not want you to be riddled with catcher, or with disease,

or with sin or leprosy. God's not willing that you go to hell.

God does not want you being a misfit. I want to ask you

the question, has your soul been made hold? I'll perform it to now.

So if I'm here in this narrative that Jesus is not a respector a

person. He came into Samaria. He came into that area, brother Rick,

that most people, especially the Jews, would have been avoiding. I

don't know the town, a lot of things. If I had been able

to study and prepare for this message, I could have told you. But

there were other times that Jesus would pass through Samaria, and the Bible said

that Jesus said, I must go through Samaria. There were other times that

men and went through Samaria before him, and the Bible said that when Jesus

arrived, they welcomed his appearing, and they were seeking for things that nobody

else could give them. You will remember the woman that said at the Well

of Samaria, that Samaritan woman will find that Jesus does not care one thing

about your skin color. He doesn't care one thing about your race. And

Heaven will be full of people of all fashionalities. Heaven will be full of

people of all manner of live, walks of life, social status. Businessmen

will be their paupers, poor men, rich men, kings will be there.

And so we find that Jesus went to Jerusalem, but he passed right

through the middle of Sumaria. Now he's looking for somebody. What he's going

through the middle of a place that he would typically avoid as a Jew.

He's on a certain or specific mission. And that's what I feel like I'm

doing tonight, despite being down in my back and my wife being very concerned

about me pushing the limits here to nothing. I'm trying to behave But I

want you to know that Jesus his own a mission for somebody in this field.

And has your soulder been made a hole? So as he walks through

the middle of Sumaria and gatherly, he enters into this certain village, and

the Bible said that these left wer spin met him there. Now, if

you hadn't read the narrative preacher, like you should, you would preach about

them being in the presidents of the Lord right there locally, that they were

within reaching this. That's what the Bible does not say that. The Bible

goes on to say that they stood afar off. So Jesus is in their

presence, if you will, But they're still doing what they've done always.

They're still out of reach and out of touch. Her sister wounding. It

doesn't matter how good the service goes or how ordered on the Lord, that

is at aberan presence of God is right there. That got scuff marks on

the back of the church along because they are uncomfortable because of their proceed or

because of sin. They feel like that they should not come up any closer.

So we see that these men are standing afar off. That's what condemnation

will do. I said, that's what condemnation would do. If you're the

disciples of Jesus and you've betrayed him, and you've done things you said you

would never do. That went pushed up to shove, or call it the

rubber cut the rod. You need exactly what Jesus said you would do.

You betrayed him, you told lies about yourself, you disappointed the Lord,

and you find yourself following Jesus afar off. You're at a guilty distance.

And so these men do find themselves because of their condition being afar off.

But brother Tyler, just because they could not stand among their peers or contemporaries

or bettered and say, look at me. I'm hold, look at me.

I'm sound in mind, I'm sound and spirit enough sounding body three thirds

of me. I'm hold, I'm about here in the presence of the Lord.

No, they say, I've got to stay up. But you know

what they did better. Just see the reason why they were healed. It

is because the Bible said they lifted up there for even though they were afar

off. And when they lifted up their voice, that got specific with their

requestion. And I'm telling you about every healing that is recorded in the Bible

has a petition with it. It's a petition for mercy. If you're blind

that can't see the scripture clearly, if you can't understand what sister would saying

that when she testifies, then you say, I just don't see it,

and come on down. Leprosy has that way about it. It will cause

you to lose vision, It will cause you so to Ma surely to lose

her hearing. Oh yes, but you've got to lift up that voice and

be specific and clean a petition the Lord and say God, I know what

I need. And let me begin with a plea for mercy. Notice it

was not a self persplean even in this condition that's treadful. It is a

unanimous call her. It's a clearing call to help us. Oh, yes,

you cannot be selfisher. You've got to be selfless and specific. You're

gonna have help. You need to realize that those in your community, in

those in your circle, they need you to get the help that you need.

They need you to do whatever it takes her to get the healing,

because we need to ring you on the other and we need to get you

in the center of God's wi. I said. We need to get you

after outs conching and after the perimeter, and we need to get you on

the prayer life that we need to get the unnoting head let in your hand.

We need to get your head clearer. They're praying the prayer path,

the prayer painting for somebody else. Amen. And the Bible said, and

when Jesus solve them, I don't know how far away they were from Jesus,

and I don't know that he can hear every word they were uttering with

his natural ear. He's one hundred percent God and one hundred percent man.

But that God man was watching him, watching them, and the Bible said,

and when he saw them, he hollered up to them and said,

hey, go show yoursels unto the priest. That it came to passer that

as they went they were cleaned. So and for all these modern preachers that

want to say we should throw the Old Testament away, that here is the

word of God personified who the Old Testament to him the news saying do what's

you know to do? Go show yourself to the priests. Come on now,

I don't feel like our hold in lifestyle. They hold and live it.

I say the pacasa we keep anybody from getting into the presence for God.

That's your observation that we'll keep you from getting in the presence for God.

You're being anti sensual and sold us and not spiritual with a content to

interdear? Where is the other two terms I know with or not all that

were on the two terms of eating the bensul that's not present? What's going

on in your soul? Are preaching the night has your soul being made hold?

It can't be made here if you're letting go show yourself unto the priest.

It needs to be a testimony to the world, the religious world,

those that have a form of godliness but are denying the power. Describe's fair

season, sad your seeds. They had judy is some down packed they could

on the lot of the Five Books of Moses, theatorious. They knew a

lot about ju Days, but they were overlooking Jesus and some of you.

You know a lot about the church. You know your pastor's middle name,

you know brother Jesse's middle name, but you don't really know a whole lot

about Jesus. I learned a long time ago when I finally got in his

presence, I learned a lot more about him than I ever would have thought

that I know about it. Oh yes, that's why charge the beloved God

as also as he could, because they place on you get somebody. The

more you know there, come on down. You don't have to back up

every time. The spirit of God means you can need care, you can

get in his presence. You could just bring good the two thirds of that

body, that spirit, soul and body. Has a soul been made whole?

You say I've been home emotionally, I'm gonna ask you again. Has

a soul being made hole? The soul of a person. Part of that

is their emotions. Finally, they used their emotions to get through to Jesus.

Finally they let their emotions enter their tone of voice. And I feel

like they were being emotional when they were saying, have mercy on us.

There's been some of us. We have been taught to be dignified. Do

you know where we learned that? By our forefathers who were reared in the

Baptists and the Methodist churches. But the Pentecostal people have always allowed the Lord

to use them emotionally. I am not saying I'm a proponent of emotional hyper

in the House of God, but I have found that anybody that ever got

something from God, they've got to purer their emotions into it. They've got

to push with the emotions. They've got to pula. You cannot sit there

dart on the inside and being a little bit alive on the outside. Oh

come on, I don't want to be a walking dead man. That's what

Jesus said about the parises, the walk washed separchers h inside their full of

it men's faults. That's what leprosy does, how it run gets to eat

somebody while they're alive. How can't you imagine, doctor, part of that

person is dead while they yet live. And that's what I feel like.

On hold the girls, it's asking you tonight, will you've been made hold

in your soul? Has your soul that made hold you look alive? That

part of you is dead? I said, you look alive, but part

They say that leprosy will eat away at you, slowly but surely. I

remember preaching on leprosy many many, many years ago, sister would while we

were churching it in a little community called Ortona. And in that study,

and this is why it pays to study brothers, because I pulled them from

it right now here. In that study, they said that leprosy well sometimes

calls white plaky skin. Sometimes neoplasms will appear, which are tumorous gross.

Sometimes, Brother Jesse, it can start out it's just maybe what appears to

be a skin tag or a moler, a tumor or growth against the surface,

and there's a nodul there. Hey, don't everybody go home look up

for leprosy to night on your body. You probably won't find a trace of

it if you look for it. But I'm talking about spiritual leprosy. Seeing

that is keeping you from get closer of God. And they said, slowly

but surely, if that leprosy appeared on the figure, you know, the

priest would immediately have to ostracize them and put them outside of the church.

And they were not permitted to have church with the people. They were not

permitted to participate his society. They had to become a colony. And the

leprosy people watched each other be alive but dead, slowly maturely dying. And

I remember Brother Jesse one particular, a research paper sent that a man went

to bed one night after having leprosy around his wrist, and then he woke

up the next morning and said, what is that lung on my cotta and

realized it was his very own hand. No, he had not bled a

whole lot, because over the period of time, slowly maturely, leprosy had

ate through the muscular skeletal system. It in vivured to tissue and devoured veins.

It didn't devoured to hen the skeleton and the joints. Brother Jesse,

he had to risk him and he woke up an hour he ain't got a

hand, uh, but you know he had had a hand to hold along

the kidneys were working, the lungs was working, the eyes were working,

the body was fuctionate, but the hand was dead. Oh come on,

now, I feel like a daughter's talking to somebody. There's sixteen the building,

but there's two work. Three good body is here, and we're not

all the same member of the body. But I don't want to look at

one that is dead in the midst of this limited church. I don't want

to look at a hand that's attached to a living body. I don't want

to look at one young man that's attached to a revival church. I don't

want to look up at one girl that this diet I tell her to alive

and blue with love in church. I'm trying to preach to you here.

Then, why are you dead? He got a lie? Well, I

said, why what are you dead? He got a lie that? Come

on? Now, Hey, that's my hand, that's my hand, that's

my body, that's my ear, that's my nose. I knew I was

gonna lose it, but I didn't think i'd lose it tonight. I knew

it was destined to happen. I feel the Holy gunson. I knew it

was about to happen. Because while Sister Whoop was shouting, and while Sister

hand I was on the back peep praying and cried, while Sister Walker's at

home listen and trying to recover her help, my brother Daddy Evers was holding

the back of the pew saying, a man preach it, pastor. I

could tell they just weren't alive. I don't know what killed you emotionally.

I don't know what killed you socially. I don't know why your spirit within

you it is dead. I don't know why your soulness where you have gone

most your new life. But you can't get past the point a long feeling.

You got to get past it. You can't seem to get past it,

but you've got to get past it. Now, that's what these men

know. Well, I got a voice. I'm gonna use it now.

I got Hey, I'm something I'm gonna use to say. Well, I

got afraid something. I'm gonna use it. You gotta use it. I

got to lose it time, I said, you betther use it. Time

lose it. Yes, I've gotta start tonight. I'm down in the night.

You're going to I think I'll lose it. Hey, I'm not I

lose it. Hey, I'll tell us somebody. You can come alive if

we walk to prais the Lord. I feel holy ghost. But the Bible

said when they were obedient, after they demonstrated their willingness to live, and

when they were beat it, they went showed themselves to the priests on their

way. As they went, God didn't make them go on in that dead

church. They were cleans before they got there. All the way as they

went, they were cleans. And one of them, when he saw that

he was healed, turned back and with a loud voice, glorified God.

He cried out with a loud voice with tim Now he's returned with one voice.

But the Bible said, he's crying out. It doesn't matter if we're

in a crowd or if we're alone. We ought to be worshiping the Lord

in the same manner, and come on, and sickness and her and health

for Richard, oh for four for better, out for worse. On a

rainy day or a sunshotted game, I will praise the Lord. If my

brother's gonna go women or not, I will praise the Lord. I'm not

worried about that, whether other or not, or I will praise the law

for yes, this one till praise the lawd I don't put tweet thoughts into

it. Tell me they may hold, I said, will my soul tree

may hold. I was fairly decent math. And there was something called an

integer, an integer whole number. A fraction is a whole number being divided

or busted apart or fractionized. But you know what, I don't have to

be fragmented tonight. I can be whole, whether my brothers or sisters or

whole or not. I can worship God, whether my brothers or sisters worship

God or not. And that's what he done. He glorified God. Oh,

yes, something he hadn't had a personal introduction with Jesus yet. Where

he glorified God. You've got to have an encounter, yes, but you're

gonna have to love by God first time. You've got to have an experience

with God. Yes, but you've got to be opedi at first. Then

the Bible said, now they recognize us. I'm clepsed, I'm cleaned.

My soul has been made whole. I will tell you something that today God

spoke to me concerning three individuals. They were saved, sanctified in Holy Ghost

Field. As far as I know, they had the manifestation of the spirit

working in their life. They had to free the spirit on their tree of

life, whether the thing or just seemed like God has just blessed the leaps

and bounds. But there was three people that God brought to my attention today,

and he said, since the preachers have been pushing and pulling and promoting

seeking me, he said, there are three people. Yes, there are

others that are not condemned because we can all say yes, we have been

prayed and seeking the Lord. But he named Hannah Howell or my daughter.

And I don't know what happened to her Sunday morning or Sunday night. It

might have been a Sunday night services helped Lord. But brother Jesse, I

got to thinking about what God said, and I have definitely seen a turning

point in the life of your sister Hannah. I'm telling you. He said,

this girl has been made whole. I didn't even think about this message

until we were singing in the choir, and then he said, sister Rachel's

she has been made whole. She's been just a wonderful person. No cancer,

no sin that I know of, spiritually speaking, no cancer, nothing

that I know of. But it seemed like brother Jesse that got on board.

I know you've been on board, Sister Wood, and I know there's

a host of you that have been on board. There's no needed to fitting

yourself at the church. And then there's one or more young men that God

has let me know. Now, I know that a bunch of you preacher

men that aren't brought with us, But I'm talking about people that God let

me know. They have understood what God is saying and they have got a

hold of it and they are helping push this thing alone and they are helping

fight on this battlefield and their soul has been made home. Listen, we

have all been offended, we have all been hurt. And if I was

to forgive your brother their trespassers, if you don't get them things fixed up

between your brother and sister God's they're gonna meet you in the altar. Oh

come on, now, I don't know why they sold us. I don't

know why you're not spiritual. I don't know why the cat's got your tongue.

But God can cleanse you and get you the place where we can glorify

God together. I'm not hurting one bit to about us being on a battle

field. I'm not caring that one bit because the adversary is just being the

devil. But I want to see you go because we got an intant here.

We've got a whole church trick. I know we got a wonderful churchill

I've only got a church on pier. I've don't got to listen saveing st

the prie and hold a guest steeling. But I'm looking for that venom and

night. Will you be made hold? I said, we all my soul

be made hold? We had Choy said, will you help us South?

Will have the top party? What the church? He fell down at Jesus's

speak and he gave him thanks. And then the Bible says because Luke asked

somebody about it, and they told him. Luke he was a Samaritan.

He was a back pew sitner, and I know if you are, I

must thrown down on the back few dwellers. He was the wall hugger.

We criticized the tree huggers, but as soon as the Holy Ghost gets the

movement, we hugged the wall. The church cleaners and sister how I know

what I'm talking about. Are y'all with Pastor Howell? Right now? Come

on? Now? He was unacceptable. He was what was considered to be

a person that didn't belong here. Wouldn't it be something to things or to

see somebody that we least expected to be helping you and I pray for the

sink. Wouldn't it be something to see somebody right here solder and shoulder on

power speaking in a heavenly language as the spirit gives the utterance And let me

correct something here. What charismatic preacher said recently, and he was preaching in

one of our holiness churches, he can turn the Holy Ghost own and turned

the Holy Ghost off like that one of them people that I know has hurt

somebody else say that recently. I don't know if that's a trend amongst us

or not. I doubt it to but I remember in the early night has

here a Church of God preachers that had compromised saying that when we were in

the Church of God England. And I know there's a lot of good Church

of God preachers that don't believe it that way. But you cannot turn the

hold. It goes all the and turn it on, but come on down

that it is subject to the prophets with the Bible said, and they spake

with tongues as the spirit gained the others in the spirit of God is not

confirming what because in the bestial that the spirit of God is not unsaying and

quicked it the person and the soul and the bestial that you better not speak

a syllable. Oh, come home down. They're letting it be something better.

The tangle to see somebody speaking in the heaven. They tell, as

the spirit kids the orderance said, I said, as the spirit that kids

the arderance, they call us up their souls may hold. I said that,

are you okay in your soul? Bring it me, may hold in

your soul. I appreciate because somebody any where they're not I clipsed, where

they're not sixty in service, where they're not sixty in service, where are

the fifty nine? You know, Jesus didn't go out to that one lost

lamb and left the ninety nine. But brother Jesse when he got back,

he wanted one hundred percent participation in heaven. They have one hundred percent participation

over one center that repents more than ninety nine, just persons that need not

repentance. Thank God in heaven. Up there, the Holy it goes,

Where are the nine tonight? Where are those that should praise the Lord?

Huh? There are not found that return to give glory to God. Save

this stranger, Save this stranger. The stranger is the Samaritan, The Samaritan,

the one brother Nathaniel at least expected. But Jesus said, I got

a surprise for the strength child. They that have been forgiven much will love

much. That woman, out of whom my cast seven devils, she will

praise me seven times, and I paraphrase, harder and stronger and more fervently

than anybody else would call. She will love the greater than anybody else.

And so we can't say that our cancer spiritually speaking, o our leprosy spiritually

speaking, as any excuse at all. I feel the Holy Ghost in this

place. I want you to know how I'm not gonna be pleased if one

service we look over there, we've lost an ear, and we've lost the

nose or and I that we didn't have to lose. I feel like the

Holy Ghost needs to breathe a breath of resuscitation into each and every person in

this building. How I feel like this a rise and exceeding great army or

one hundred participate percent participation of people that could say I haven't made whole.

I'm not gonna tell you the name of that young man that God spoke to

me, but I believe that God has begun something in that young man's life.

And I said, I believe God has got something in that young man's

life. And when God does something in a young man or a young woman's

life, it does not matter if the thing is fractionalized or not, or

fragmented or not. It doesn't matter what the nine tenths are doing. The

other nine ten I'm gonna do what I need to do. It might be

just ten percent. It might be just ten percent that would preach down in

their back. It might be just ten percent that would take a chance to

pull it even further or not. If I take ten percent of it's just

to have a move of God. But I'm gonna be one of that ten

percent, one out of ten that will get in. And how church?

Come on, How'm not gonna ever go a church? But Jesus is asking

as we walk out in the New world, but where where the other worst

of person? Did they not all get saved in my all time? Did

I not divide the intervening for them? Did I'm not he over babies when

they asked me to? Did I'm not read? But they're asking the food?

But I not tell her to be not hour. I'm telling you you

can be made home, and that soul, will you be made home?

And Jesus said it to him. As we're standing arise. This man's on

his face on the ground praise of the Lord humility in practice, the spirit

of humility personified, and Jesus has lifted him up the same way angels said,

Jesus lifted up any great man that humbled himself when they sold his presence.

When they really got in his presence, there was no spirit of pride,

no hiddiness, no egotistical mindsets, no prideful people. And Jesus spoke

to him to SI, get up, arise. And that's what I'm telling

somebody here tonight. You can say you've had spiritual leprosy and that you've been

losing things that you shouldn't be losing. You're losing your joy, you're losing

wisdom. You have to clea, you'll go to take off. You're losing

peace. Slowly but surely, you're losing your prayer life while others are picking

theirs up. Slowly but surely, you're losing your desire to read the Bible.

Slowly but surely you're having poor judgment. Slowly but surely you're being inclined

to do things you thought you would have never done. Now I'm talking to

us, I'm about in this building. Slowly but surely you're losing your reason.

You're thinking about quittin church. You're thinking about quitting God. That's nothing

but leprosy, spiritual leprosy. The devil is the master deceive her, and

he can cause you to start dying on the inside. Hold by God in

heaven. I feel the Holy Ghost in this place, Brother Samuel. I

ain't got a note one, but the Holy Ghost is speaking into my soul,

Brother Jesse. We can see it when they lose their desire for revival

service. We can see when they come running in at the last minute.

They've lost their passion, they've lost their joy. They're alive, but something

in them is dead. I said, I cannot stress that enough. They're

alive, but something in them is dead. But Jesus said, go thy

way, thy faith hath made the hole. Hey, preacher, I've been

made hold in my soul. My soul has been made home. I look

at Brother Jesse. When did you get the Holy Ghost, Brother Jesse?

February of this year, you can say, Brother Jesse has been made home.

I just thought of something, Brother Jesse. I was talking this past

Sunday night about people being numb. Y'all know cancer. I'll do that,

y'all know leprosy will do that. It'll eat away to nerve end him,

to eat him away. Brother Jesse said, Dad, I'm ashamed to a

minute. He said. I loved the Lord. I loved playing a pin

in the church. I loved good ultra services. I love love love,

Preacher, he said, I loved it. I loved to go to church.

I never thought about quit church, never thought about quit God. He

said. But I just numb, even though I hated it, I was

non Brother Gabriel, you said something similar to that. You knew to do.

Right, But concerning this movement of the Holy Ghost, just numb.

I need it? But how do I get it? And Brother Jesse said,

But when I got the Holy Ghost? I'm no longer numb, and

I put a lot of emphasis this past Sunday night when I preached that sermon,

help Lord of the wicked people of this generation being likened unto the people

of knowing latched, sinful generation, as well as Jeremi's generation and Brother Thomas

Starrett. They have calloused their hearts, and Brother Starrett talked to an atheist

recently, also some Southern Baptist preachers, and the Holy Ghost is what made

the difference in that situation. Brother Staret said, when the Holy Ghost activated,

they were pretty much speechless. I feel so good in my soul.

And for those that doubt and been concerned about me, you've missed out on

a wonderful blessing because I have no pain. As of about fifteen minutes ago,

I couldn't even take baby steps. It took me twenty five minutes to

step away from the pool pit. I may be hurting tonight all night own,

but Brother Rick Jacob to feel this anointing has been viewed for. But

Brother Jesi said, I'm no longer numb. Brother Jesi said, I'm no

longer no. Will you be made whole? And that's soul. I'm telling

you if you're getting the altar right now, God help you. Maybe this

is why the devil fought me the way he did today and my body.

Would you turn it on church? Just the praise and the prayer. You

got to whore, you got to Baha. Let Janius speak to you tonight.

Arise, go thy way, thy faith hath made thee whole hold,

Preacher, I don't want to get numb. I don't want to be past

few that. I don't want to put off for tomorrow things that I can

do today. I don't want to forsake this s any other selves together.

I don't want to miss church. I don't want to miss an opportunity to

pray for my brother. I don't want to do things I would have done

just last month, last year. People you used to what fellowship or associate

with on the job, Now you're going to lunch with them. Reason and

judgment. Don't lose your good wisdom. Don't lose your good reason, and

don't lose your good understanding. You have to core. You have the want

to come to be healed in your soul, Be healed in your soul,

be healed in the spirit. You here by that now bring your soul to

church. Bring your spirit to church. Be soulful, be spiritual. You're

here physically. Bring your soul to Jesus. Bring the other two thirds to

Jesus. You made don't tal my face by face by faith? Will do
