Jesus Generation Conference 2025 Bailey Redmond Podcast 95 Parte 1

Thank you for always listening to our podcast.

We hope they are a blessing to your life. this

house. I love Pastor Daniel. I love this team.

You guys are family. And I just felt this morning

when I opened my eyes the first thing. I heard

that verse, blessed are the pure in heart. For

they shall see God. And I want to honor your

purity. When I think about this church, when

I think about Pastor Daniel, I just think of

purity. almost offensive servanthood the humility

you carry I don't think you realize how rare

that is and I just want to honor you each and

every one of you And I believe that what's the

contents of your heart, what's inside of your

heart, that far outweighs anything that could

be done on a platform. His eyes aren't searching

to and fro for the best preachers or for the

most gifted. or for the ones who have it all

together. He's looking for the pure ones. He's

looking for pure sacrifices. That he can trust

with his dreams. And I believe that's who you

are. So I just want to honor you. When I was

praying about this morning, Isaac knows I've

been going back and forth. What do I say? What

do I talk about? I'm not going to say I'm not

a preacher because I'm trying to break that lie,

but I am far more comfortable as a worshiper

than a preacher. But for some reason the Lord

would not let me move on from the Nazarite vow.

Normally I talk about worship. But I felt like

there was an invitation this morning to a deeper

lifestyle of consecration. And about holiness.

I don't know if you're anything like me. Maybe

you grew up in the church, maybe you didn't.

but usually when people hear the word holy or

holiness, there's immediately a reservation.

Because for me growing up, holiness, that word

was used as a punishment or a fear tactic. That's

not how a good Christian woman lives. That's

not how someone who's holy lives. And it was

all about the outward appearance. Or even behavioral

modification. And God's not after you being a

good church kid. As we were just singing, he's

an all -consuming fire. And he's looking for

those who will be holy as he is holy. So a little

bit about my story. I did not grow up in church.

I'm gonna just... kind of do the rapid fire version

because there's so many details. But basically

I grew up in Florida, a little tiny town, Daytona

Beach. Come on Florida people, I know what you're

doing here. So I grew up in a single mom household.

My mom's a queen. She is or is a firefighter,

police officer, corrections officer. She's intense.

She is amazing though. But I didn't grow up with

a father in my life. So my dad originally, my

mom and my dad, I'm just gonna be really raw

tonight, that's okay, or this morning. Basically,

I was the product of a one night stand. My dad

was told that he was completely infertile. He

was in between his second and third marriage

at the time. So when my mom found out that she

was pregnant, obviously naturally it was like,

you're crazy. There's no way that's impossible.

I was told by doctors that I'm infertile So for

the first four years of my life my dad kept my

existence a secret And my mom decided to raise

me on her own I didn't meet my biological father

until I was four years old. And although I loved

him when I met him, he was very inconsistent,

very in and out of my life. And there was a point

where my mom was like, I can't do this on my

own, I need help to raise Bailey. So she sent

word to my grandmother, my crazy grandmother,

to come and move down to Florida and help raise

me. Who in here has a crazy Pentecostal grandmother?

Raise your hand. I know I'm not alone. I just

want to say, if you have a praying grandmother,

you're cooked. Just give up now. because her

prayers are potent. So my grandmother moved down

and all of a sudden she's raising me. And every

day she's literally preaching the gospel to me.

I remember, even at five, six years old, being

woken up to the sound of her weeping in the living

room at four in the morning. And I actually brought

her Bible today. Because it's the greatest legacy

that I have. And so as my grandmother, for years

and years, praying for me and raising me. There

came a point where her prayers caught up to me.

And in middle school, as I'm being dragged to

church with her, there was a moment when I was

in eighth grade. where I heard news that my father

had gotten arrested. He was arrested for sexually

abusing a couple hundred women or something like

that. And obviously, that's devastating to hear

the news of. And that moment for me, it wasn't

just, oh, well, My dad's arrested, oh well. For

me, it just solidified the lie that I was already

carrying, that I was rejected, abandoned. And

that any hope I had for a father in my life was

hopeless. And I will never forget the day my

grandmother looked me in the eyes. And she said,

you are not fatherless. Before you were formed

in your mother's womb. He knew you. He saw you.

He fashioned you. Your destiny was pre -written

before you ever took your first breath. And at

the time I thought, this lady is crazy. She doesn't

even know what she's talking about. She's just

saying that because she's my grandma and she

has to. But the next thing you know, as an eighth

grader, I'm being plagued and tormented with

suicidal thoughts. I was self -harming. Nobody

knew it. And just to give you a side note, I

was leading worship. That whole time. That entire

time I was up on a stage, singing to a God I

did not know. But all it took was one single

moment for me. Where I grabbed this exact Bible.

I got home from school that day after hearing

the news about my father's arrest. And I remember

I literally got on the floor and I opened the

Bible like this and I'm like, just waiting for

the sky to split open or something to happen.

And obviously nothing did. And I'm frustrated.

I'm like this God that everyone keeps saying

he's so good. He's so faithful. He's my father.

Where is he now? I'm sitting there. I say out

loud. If you're real, prove it. And let me just

tell you, if you ever pray a prayer like that,

God's like test me. Try me. So in that moment,

you know how in scary movies the whole room turns

colder? And there's like that eerie music and

it gets darker. It was the opposite for me. All

of a sudden the room gets like 30 degrees hotter.

And I feel something shift in the room. And I

had no grid for the presence of God or for, you

know, His presence manifesting. I never even

read the Bible before. I never even prayed before.

And all of a sudden, I feel this tangible love

fill the room. And I felt someone come up behind

me and bear hug me. And I was terrified. Absolutely

terrified. But I knew that he was real. And I

never felt a love like that. I had never felt

a love like that. It's like it filled up every

void and every question. It didn't even make

sense. He didn't even have to tell me I am God.

It was like there was a deep knowing, a deep

longing that this is the one I've been searching

for. So from that day, I actually went to a Christian

school at the time because of my grandmother

and I remember walking up to my teachers and

the first thing I said to them was hypothetically

speaking, if this were to happen to you, what

would you do? And of course my teachers are like,

did that happen to you? I'm like, no, no, no,

just my friend or something. Because I had a

reputation of being that girl that was rebellious.

That laughed at other Christians. Even when I

would lead worship, I would think to myself.

They look so stupid. They're singing to the walls.

I have never seen God show up until it happens

to me. And when I was talking to my teacher,

what she told me was the same way that you...

walked into your room and you sat with your Bible

open and you talked to him. Do that every day.

I was like, okay, I guess I will. So I quickly

became addicted to his presence. I didn't know

what I was doing. There was no There was no pastor

telling me pray like this, do this. It was me

in my weakness, in my brokenness, fumbling my

way through relationship with God. And every

time he showed up, he didn't split the sky open,

fired I didn't descend down, but in that small

whisper, in the secret place, where no one knew

me except him, where no one's eyes were on me

but his, he changed everything. Literally everything.

So the very next year, Because of my dad's arrest,

my mom could no longer afford child support.

So all of a sudden, I'm being sent to a public

school. Although I was not a believer, at the

time that I went to the private school, all of

a sudden my little Christian bubble is being

popped. So now I'm at a school with 3 ,000 people.

But this time I'm burning. This time I'm in love.

And I remember the very first day of my high

school years. I prayed to the Lord on the bus

on the way. And I said, God, would you send revival

to this school? I want to be walking revival

today. And from that began this four year journey.

Where every chance I got. I was telling someone

about Jesus. And I wish I could tell you I was

perfect at it and everyone got saved. Actually,

the opposite happened. There was so much opposition.

People at school hated me. I would walk in the

halls and they'd be like, there's the Mother

Mary, there she is. And they would call me Jesus

freak not knowing that's a compliment. But I

remember even during class, I'd be talking to

someone and they'd be like. I am Christian. But

everything in their life looked just like how

mine did in middle school. And I remember opening

up the Bible and be like, no, no, no, no. Look

what it says. Look what it says. I was in love.

I was consumed. And there came a point. All of

a sudden the Jesus Club that I had started had

grown to 80 people. Which is amazing, but it

started to attract a lot of unwanted attention.

Where all of a sudden people are writing me death

letters. Students that I went to school with.

in class with, all of a sudden are writing me

letters saying, if you ever say the name of Jesus

again, we're gonna beat you up. We're gonna kill

your family. We're gonna set you on fire. In

America. And to be honest, they were all talk,

to be honest. And they don't know that my mom's

a cop. But the reality that I was walking in

the midst of darkness was real to me. It was

my everyday. And there was a day where I'm riding

my bike through my neighborhood. We lived by

the beach, so a bunch of us were riding back

home. We lived near the beach and a group of

girls who hated the Jesus Club were hiding in

the neighborhood and the minute that they saw

me they jumped us, they beat us up. And I just

remember The thing that they said before they

left us was they spit and they said, we hate

Jesus. And I remember laying there, literally

just shook about what just happened. And I remember

thinking to myself, it's worth it. He's worth

it. And my mom, of course, he wanted to press

charges. As she does. I remember she sat with

me. And my mom is a believer now, but she wasn't

at the time. And I remember she looked at me

with tears in her eyes. And she said, do you

really have to be that loud about Jesus? Does

it really take all that? It's okay if you have

your religion You don't have to talk about it

all the time And I just remember sobbing As I

told my mom There is no one else for me I will

not lay down my love for Jesus for anything.

Can I tell you that it was not any better after

that? I wish I could tell you that all of a sudden

the difficulty lifted. I wish I could tell you

that everyone loved me after that. But honestly

those four years of high school was a plow It

was a journey But I remember as I graduated high

school Remember I remember saying to myself Jesus

is worthy of this a single decision that you've

made in the name of radical love for Jesus, it

is never wasted. It's never wasted. And the reason

why I share my story and I share some of those

high school years is because I was burning and

I was passionate for the gospel. But in my later

years, as I went to Bible college, and I started

going to ministry, that zeal died down. Because

I remember everyone in high school telling me,

that's just young zeal, you'll get over that.

Ah, just let her be wild now, because she'll

calm down later. And I honestly bit the bait.

I took it. Now in my college years, I'm surrounded

by primarily Christians. And I began to see how

many Christians were living in apathy. All of

a sudden everyone's telling me, you need to build

your ministry. And I'm not knocking school. But

for me, it was out of duty, not love. It was

because I was more caught up in a Christian culture

than living out simple obedience to Jesus. And

I began to tone down this passion and this burning

zeal. And eventually I found myself really backslidden.

I found myself in rooms I never thought I'd be

in. With people I never thought I'd be with.

Making choices I knew in my heart this is not

what God had asked of me. But in 2016, I just

got off work. And I'm sitting on my bed, and

I'm scrolling through Facebook. And I remember,

I stumbled upon this live stream of a man named

Lu Engel. And it was the Azusa now, the call.

It was a gathering of about 80 ,000 believers

in the Coliseum in Los Angeles. And the whole

gathering was about prayer and fasting for the

turning of America back to God. And I'm at this

place in my life where all of a sudden, I'm only

18 years old. years all of a sudden became the

glory days. I remember when I saw God heal that

person in my lunchroom. I remember seeing the

atheist all of a sudden on his knees weeping

before God in my school. But all these stories

were Because I became a professional Christian.

I had forgotten the love I had at first. It all

became about ministry and movement. But I had

forgotten Him. All of a sudden it was about me

being this minister, but my heart was far. And

as I'm watching Azusa now, I see this wild 60

-year -old man with fire in his eyes, crying

out for the turning of America. And he began

to talk about something called the Nazareth Vowel.

Do you guys have your Bibles? Even if it's digital.

Can you flip to number six? Also, I just want

to say, I flipped to number six like two days

ago. And I found a vow my grandma had written

in the 80s. Write at number six. coincidence

okay I just want to read number six real quick

God spoke to Moses oh sorry that's the message

the Lord said to Moses speak to the Israelites

and say to them if a man or woman wants to make

a special vow a vow of separation to the Lord

as a Nazarite he must abstain from wine and other

fermented drink Must not drink vinegar made from

wine or from oh, I just get that or from other

fermented drink He must not drink grape juice

or eat grapes or raisins as long as he is a Nazarite

He must not eat anything that comes from the

grapevine not even the seeds or skins During

the entire period of his vows separation. No

razor may be used on his head He must be holy

until the period of a separation to the Lord

is over He must let the hair of his head grow

long Throughout the period of a separation to

the Lord he must not go near a dead body Even

if his own father or mother or brother or sister

dies He must not make himself ceremonially unclean

on account of them because the symbol of a separation

to God is on his head Throughout the period of

a separation he is consecrated to the Lord If

someone dies suddenly in his presence, thus defiling

the hair he is dedicated, he must shave his head

on the day of his cleansing, the seventh day.

Then on the eighth day, he must bring two doves

or two young pigeons to the priest at the entrance

to the tent of meeting. The priest is to offer

one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt

offering to make atonement for him because he

sinned by being in the presence of the dead body.

That same day he is to consecrate his head. He

must dedicate himself to the Lord for the period

of a separation and must bring a year old male

lamb as a guilt offering. The previous days do

not count because he has become defiled during

a separation. Now this is the law for the Nazarite.

When the period of a separation is over, he is

to be brought to the entrance to the tent of

meeting. There he is to present his offerings

to the Lord. A year old male lamb without defect

for a burnt offering. A year old ewe lamb without

defect for a sin offering. A ram without defect

for a fellowship offering. Together with their

grain offerings and drink offerings and a basket

of bread made without yeast. Cakes made of fine

flour mixed with oil and wafers spread with oil.

The priest is to present them before the Lord

and make the sin offering and the burnt offering.

He is to present the basket of unleavened bread.

Is to sacrifice the ram as a fellowship offering

to the Lord together with this grain offering

and drink offering? Then at the entrance to the

tent of meeting the Nazarite must shave off the

hair that he dedicated He is to take the hair

and put it in the fire that is under the sacrifice

of the fellowship offering After the Nazarite

has shaved off the hair of his dedication The

priest is to place in his hands a boiled shoulder

of the ram and a cake and a wafer from the basket

both made without yeast. The priest shall then

wave them before the Lord as a wave offering.

They are holy and belong to the priest, together

with the breast that was waved and the thigh

that was presented. After that, the Nazarite

may drink wine. This is the law of the Nazarite

who vows his offering to the Lord in accordance

with the separation, in addition to whatever

else he can afford. He must fulfill the law or

the vow he has made according to the law of the

Nazarite. It's a mouthful, I know. Bear with

me. Mientras dure su promesa de Nazareo, no comerá

ningún producto de la vid, desde la semilla hasta

la cáscara. Mientras dure el tiempo de su consagración

al Señor, es decir, mientras dure su promesa

de Nazareo, tampoco se cortará el cabello, sino

que se lo dejará crecer y se mantendrá santo.

Mientras dure el tiempo de su consagración al

Señor, no podrá acercarse a ningún cadáver, ni

siquiera en caso de que muera su padre, su madre,

su hermano o su hermana. No de vera serse ritualmente

impuro a causa de ellos, porque lleva sobre la

cabeza el símbolo de su consagración a Dios.

Mientras dure el tiempo de su consagración al

Señor, sementandrá Santo. Si de improviso alguien

muere junto a Él, la consagración de su cabeza

quedará anulada. Así que, al cabo de siete días,

en el día de su purificación, deberá rasurarse

la cabeza. Al octavo dia llevará dos palomas

o dos tortolas y se las entregará al sacerdote

a la entrada de la tienda de reunión. El sacerdote

ofrecerá una de ellas como sacrificio por el

perdón de pecados y la otra como holocausto.

Así el sacerdote pedirá perdón por el pecado

del Nazareo, ya que este pecó al entrar en contacto

con un cadáver. That same day Nazareth will consecrate

his head again, consecrating to the Lord the

time of his Nazareth and carrying a lamb of one

year as a sacrifice for the guilt. He will not

take into account the previous time because his

consecration was canceled. this is the Untadas

con aceite y también ofrendas de cereal y ofrendas

líquidas. Entonces el sacerdote las presentará

al señor y ofrecerá el sacrificio por el perdón

y el alocausto en favor del naceo. Ofrecerá el

carnero al señor como sacrificio de comunión

junto con el canastillo de panes sin levadura.

TAMIEN PRESENTARÁ LAS OFRENDAS DE CEREAL Y LAS

OFRENDAS LÍQUIDAS. LUEGO AL ENTRADO DE LA TIENDA

DE REUNION, EL NASAREO SE RAPARA LA CABEZA. TOMARÁ

EL CABELLO QUE CONSACRIÓ Y LO ECHARÁ AL FUEGO

QUE ARDE BAJO UN SACRIFICIO DE COMUNION. UNA

VEZ QUE EL NASAREO SE HAYA RAPADO LA CABEZA,

SACERDOTE TOMARÁ EL CANASTILLO UN PAN SIN LAVADURA

Y UNA HUELA SIN LAVADURA, MAS LA ESPALDIYA COCIDA

DEL CARNERO. Pondrá todo esto en manos del Nazareo.

Después, mes será todo esto ante el Señor como

una ofrenda. Todo esto es santo y le pertenece

al sacerdote. Lo mismo que el pecho mesido y

el muslo ofrecido como contribución. Finalizando

este rito, el Nazareo podrá beber vino. Esta

ley se aplicará al Nazareo que haga una promesa.

This is the offering that the Lord will present

for his Nazareth, apart from what he can give

according to his resources. According to the

law of the Nazareth, he must fulfill the promise

he made.
