Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Love Quest International
-
Church Podcast where we seek to love all nations, equip the
-
church, mobilize the equipped, and serve all.
-
We're super glad you're joining us from whenever and wherever
-
you're at in the world. Welcome to the family to get
-
your Bibles ready, get some water, get some coffee, maybe
-
some tea, and get ready to receive.
-
It's go time. Let's get into it.
-
And so I'm, I'm not just excited about where I am, I am excited
-
about the new me. I am excited about the garden
-
Terrance and I'm excited to know that I don't even know all of me
-
yet. You know, that's why a lot of
-
people can't wait till Christmas, because they want to
-
open gifts. Maybe I'm the only one.
-
Maybe I'm the only one. All right, I just can't wait.
-
I don't want it, right? I don't want to just be undone.
-
I'm also want to be revealed. Now let me clean this up.
-
Let me clean this up, right? I want Jesus to be revealed.
-
But let me put it this way. I can find you Scripture.
-
He wants to reveal me to you because I am the fruit of His
-
heart. He created me, right?
-
He created you, right? You are his workmanship.
-
He created you. Come on, say I am his
-
workmanship. Samuel took his flask just
-
really quickly. I got.
-
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Samuel took his flask of oil and
-
anointed him with his brothers standing around watching.
-
The. Spirit of God entered David like
-
a rush of wind. Somebody say rush of wind.
-
The Spirit of God entered David like a rush of wind.
-
God vitally empowering him for the rest of his life.
-
Can we just for a moment, be excited?
-
That once the Lord touched you, you were empowered for the rest
-
of your life. Come on, come on, come on
-
somebody. For the rest of my life.
-
Come on, say for the rest of my life, sometimes some anointed
-
word anointing services and prophetic words is to remind you
-
of the first oil. Somebody say the first oil.
-
Somebody say the first oil. God did God.
-
God didn't anoint me for a month, He anointed me for a
-
lifetime. I'm excited there's departure on
-
your arrival. Remember that last week that the
-
man of God said we not going, no, we not even moving until the
-
young one comes. And that's the word, that
-
there's just some stuff that God won't get moving until you say I
-
do. We are his workmen.
-
We are Co laborers. How cool is that?
-
That he could do it all by himself, but he won't do it
-
without. You keep going, keep going, PT,
-
keep going, keep going. Jeremiah.
-
Let's look at it. Verse 10 says, see, I have this
-
day appointed you to to the oversight of the nations and of
-
the kingdoms to root out and pull down.
-
Somebody say root out, pull down, destroy, overthrow.
-
Somebody say process, root out and pull down to destroy and to
-
overthrow, to build and to plant.
-
Root out, uproot, pull down, to destroy and to overthrow, to
-
build and to plant. Here, watch this.
-
A part of renewing your mind is him rooting out the world in
-
you, rooting out the trauma in you, rooting out the old way of
-
thinking, rooting out the stronghold way of thinking.
-
Somebody say root outs and then he's pulling down and he's
-
trying to destroy, not leave a remnants of trauma.
-
Come on Satan, there's nothing about my past that God wants to
-
leave, but all of my past he desires to use.
-
Somebody shout about that one right there.
-
Look, because God don't need it, don't mean he won't use it.
-
So as he is asking you to leave your past behind, it is because
-
I am working all things to what together for your what good.
-
There's some ugly past I got. I don't even need to know how he
-
going to use it for my good. All I need to know is this going
-
to be what good to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to
-
plant. Here's.
-
God's love Troy, how many times we just want to keep it pushing,
-
Watch this and gotta deal with it.
-
There is no overthrowing, there is no rooting out, there is no
-
pulling down without your participation.
-
Watch this. It is unsafe to build and plant
-
with with roots and weeds that He has ordained to be pulled
-
down and rooted out. What I realize as I grow in the
-
Lord is God will make it very obvious when it is building and
-
planting time. Amen.
-
Keep it pushing. Now let's go back to verse 5.
-
Before I formed you in the womb, I what and what I knew and
-
approved to you. Read it like you excited.
-
You can't be more excited when a person approve you.
-
Before I formed you in your mother's womb, you may be like,
-
well, where did he be? Before my Mama womb.
-
Watch this Watch this 6161 put it I mean Genesis one verse 26.
-
So you say you like where, where, where before, just really
-
quickly put it up. Just so you know, Genesis 126.
-
This is so cool. I like finding us in the Bible
-
is where we all this is where he knew us.
-
You like you knew me before I was even a body.
-
So cool, God said, let us, Father, Son and Holy Spirit make
-
mankind in our what after our what and let them have what
-
complete what does. Complete mean total, total fool.
-
Nothing missing, nothing broken. Complete.
-
Keep going authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of
-
the air, the tame beast, and over all of the earth and over
-
everything that creeps upon the earth.
-
Watch this next verse. So God created man in his own
-
image, in the image and likeness of God.
-
He created him, male and female. He created them.
-
What does it say right here, the first 4 words?
-
Ready read. What does created mean?
-
He made, He formed, He put together.
-
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
-
no, no, no, no. I took your words out of your
-
mouth and they're they're wrong. They're wrong.
-
They're wrong. He didn't form me.
-
He didn't form me here. He created me.
-
You form a. You form this.
-
I was made here. I was created here.
-
Me. This is who?
-
He died for he didn't die for chapter 2, right?
-
He didn't. He did this.
-
This is who he made he he's a spirit.
-
So he didn't make our body in his image.
-
He made you. This is you.
-
The devil want us to focus on the formed us the body.
-
OK, watch this verse 28 watch this, watch this, watch this,
-
watch this and God what bless them and said to them.
-
Oh, he's speaking to our spirit. He's speaking to he prophesied
-
to it. He's speaking into us over us be
-
what fruitful and what multiply and fill the earth and subdue it
-
using all his vast resources in the service of God and man and
-
having dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air
-
and over every living creature that what moves up on the earth
-
next verse and God says, see I have given you every plant
-
yielding seed that is on the face of all the land and every
-
tree with seed in its fruit you shall.
-
Have them for food. I don't want to go into all the
-
other cool stuff. We were meant to just be plant
-
based beings. OK, neat.
-
Came in later after we needed it and Bah Bah Bah read read it.
-
Now if you go in the next. Chapter it says And everybody
-
heard this. He took the dust.
-
And he, what formed? He formed.
-
And then it says he breathed into our nostrils.
-
And then we became a living being.
-
You and I were created. In chapter 1 right here.
-
He knew us watch this. He blessed us.
-
He gave us authority. He gave us everything we needed.
-
Then he formed our bodies. And then he blew everything from
-
Chapter 1 into the body. Man became a living being.
-
So when Jesus died on the cross, he came.
-
He died for your soul. You watch this.
-
It was never about soul winning. Just look at some of y'all faces
-
right now. No one was lost, right?
-
That's right. That's right, we we wasn't
-
needed to be won. Nothing was lost.
-
It was never about soul winning. No one lost.
-
Watch this, you ready? It was never about sitting at
-
the feet of Jesus. We were walking in the image and
-
likeness of the Trinity. We were all wrapped up together.
-
He blew himself into US. Let us make man in our image and
-
likeness. Watch this.
-
It was never about equipping the church.
-
It was never about perfecting. We were perfect.
-
All it was about was expanding His Kingdom on earth as it is in
-
heaven. We got involved in this sin
-
thing. The Great Commission is about
-
reconciling us. We have to return back to
-
something when we were never created to leave it.
-
We were never created to leave it or lose it.
-
What did we lose? Go back to Genesis 127.
-
Let them have dominion. That's what we lost.
-
What do we see Jesus being offered by Satan when he's
-
tempted? The shortcut to it.
-
Jesus came to restore his Kingdom.
-
So then when God calls us out to the cities and the highways and
-
byways, what do we do? And when we're worshipping and
-
when we're doing, we exercise our authority so we can see the
-
captives set free. It is not for us to merely just
-
sing sweet songs to Jesus, he says.
-
The gates of hell shall not prevail, which means there's a
-
church on the move. Somebody say move, So he says
-
before I formed. You and your mother's womb.
-
So before you were formed, before you were formed, right?
-
So he gave every seed is meant to produce.
-
So as as as fruit has seeds and meant to reproduce.
-
Humans have seed and it's meant to reproduce.
-
We multiply just like fruit multiply just like trees
-
multiply, just like animals multiply.
-
We are meant to multiply. Watch this.
-
Before I formed you in your mama's womb, I knew you and I
-
approved you. You were approved in Genesis 1.
-
You weren't approved on whatever Sunday that was.
-
You gave your life to Jesus and my chosen instrument and before
-
you were born, watch this chosen instrument meaning he needs, he
-
wants to use you. Watch this.
-
You were born, I separated you. You were set apart and you and
-
set you apart, consecrating you and I appointed you.
-
Somebody say appointed. He has an assignment for you and
-
it's very specific and it's clear and direct right here.
-
Jeremiah was appointed a what prophet?
-
Watch what Jeremiah says. I cannot speak.
-
I'm only a youth somebody say excuses we God ain't is only
-
God. It ain't no only what you could
-
do. It's only God, but the Lord said
-
to me, say not I am only a youth.
-
Say not your excuse. Say what you're not.
-
Discover what he said you is, for you shall go to all somebody
-
say all whom I shall send you, and whatever I command you, you
-
going to say. Somebody say yes, Lord, come on.
-
Somebody say talk to me. Nice.
-
Hallelujah. He talk to you.
-
I want to. Amen.
-
Be not afraid of them or their faces, for I am with you to
-
deliver you, says the Lord. Then the Lord put forth his hand
-
and touched my mouth. Be not afraid.
-
The enemy wants to back you down because he understands the
-
harvest connected to your obedience.
-
Watch this. It's not just obedience.
-
It's obedience with the anointing God has given you.
-
It's obedience to what God is asking you to do season to
-
season. And the Lord said to me, behold,
-
I put my words in your mouth, meaning you have a unique
-
message, OK, He said, I will build my church.
-
We've read this before. I want to read fast through this
-
because I have some very clear instructions in this hour to
-
give you. Not everyone who says to me,
-
Lord, Lord will enter into heaven's Kingdom.
-
It is only those who persist in doing the will of my Heavenly
-
Father. Oh, so the war is going to be
-
waged against you doing you, doing you, doing you doing you
-
doing you, you doing you. Doing the will of my Heavenly
-
Father. Watch this not just attending
-
there's an assignment on our lives and watch this and you not
-
assign by to yourself on the day of judgment.
-
Many will say to me, Lord, Lord. Don't you remember us?
-
Didn't we prophecy in your name? Yep.
-
Didn't we cast out demons and do many miracles in your name?
-
Yep. He says, but I will have to say
-
to them, Go away from me, you lawless rebels.
-
I've never been joined to you. Everyone who hears my teaching
-
and applies it to his life can be compared to a wise man or
-
woman who built his house on unshakeable foundation.
-
Somebody say unshakeable, unshakable.
-
When the rains fell and the flood came, the wind is blowing,
-
the wind is blowing. The the wind is blowing When the
-
rains fell and the flood came, the fierce with fierce winds
-
beating up on his house. It it stood firm because of its
-
strong foundation. Watch this.
-
Here's how I see this. Watch this EJ.
-
Watch this, Watch this, watch this.
-
You ready for this? When something stands firm, it
-
does not even waver, right? Right.
-
OK, OK, so so in this hour, if you are wavering, there's parts
-
of your foundation that you actually have to go back to and
-
attend to see. Maybe maybe if God's been like
-
hold up or lay this down for right now because He's trying to
-
make sure that as the wind comes, it does not take you out
-
and watch this. There's a lot of wavering.
-
Watch the come on Christians, can you help me out with this.
-
Stop saying that everything's good because you and Jesus OK,
-
we have to stop that is manipulating the word.
-
We can then go to how important it is for us to vitally be
-
together. We're a body and we're called to
-
do a task together and every part or member does its part.
-
So it can't just be me and Jesus.
-
Cool. No Am I wavering in our
-
relationship that God he what? What would God put together let
-
no man put asunder, not even myself.
-
If God put me and my wife together, may Lord may I not be
-
the reason we waver. If God put me in in grace
-
together, may I not play a part in causing us to be divided or
-
separated or or delayed? So I can't say I'm rooted in
-
Jesus, but I'm wavering with y'all.
-
Like, like, like, like, like. It is good when we hit a bump in
-
the road because it presents us an opportunity to walk in His
-
image and His likeness. Watch this sometime.
-
All you need is. Fresh oil, not a fresh
-
relationship. Am I talking to somebody real
-
quick? Right.
-
Sometime you need fresh oil, not a fresh church.
-
Sometime you need fresh oil, not a new ministry.
-
Sometime the the, the you at rock bottom is speaking that
-
it's time for you to shed out the old wine skin because God is
-
ready to pour some new wine. Somebody shout out new wine,
-
right? Everybody want new wine but
-
don't want don't want to shed. Everyone who hears my teaching
-
with me at home. Everyone who hears my teaching.
-
And does not apply it. All shaking now.
-
One thing I bless God over, the men and women that have been in
-
my life, they have been faithful to teaching the word and not
-
giving up. Sometime the enemy know he can't
-
stop you from getting the Word, so he'll change the voice of the
-
deliverer of the Word, right? Did you see Jeremiah?
-
I'm anointing your mouth for a people.
-
I'm calling you to rather the people change the voice.
-
I'm telling you to speak the word, OK?
-
Watch it, watch it, he said. But everyone who hears my
-
teaching say hear the teaching and does not apply it to his
-
life. Can be compared to a foolish man
-
or woman who built his house on sand when it rained.
-
Here it is. Let me give you another example,
-
hero. You cannot say I'm listening to
-
God. I'm just not.
-
Listening to you. I believe God, but I don't
-
believe his prophet. Dangerous.
-
So you just like God is missing it on who he sends.
-
That's what people say. Yeah.
-
You can't be telling speaking on God's behalf.
-
I don't trust nothing you say. This is why I say please find a
-
house that you can trust the voice.
-
Because whether you believe it or not, God is sending folks to
-
speak on his behalf in 2025. And until Jesus returned, guess
-
what he going to do? Keep sending folks.
-
Guess what? They going to be apostles,
-
prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists.
-
He say, he say, what's this? Building on sand, watch and when
-
it rained and rained and the flood came.
-
I love, like you say, when it rained and rained.
-
And the flood came. Watch this with wind.
-
What? Watch this.
-
I love this. Hallelujah.
-
Now I'm not trying to be all deep but nothing.
-
But I'm trying. I'm about to be deep for for a
-
second. You notice how there's a season
-
where now we're in the season where he's talking about the
-
wind blowing? Y'all remember the season he
-
was? Talking about the flood.
-
Y'all remember that some of y'all got delivered that flood
-
at the valley, and as strong as he was telling us about the
-
flood, he is now saying the wind has come, the wind and the waves
-
beating upon his house, it collapsed and swept, was swept
-
away by the time Jesus finished speaking.
-
This is amazing to me because not only have he given prophetic
-
words inside the house, sermons, New Year's Eve messages, he also
-
sent a woman of God and a man of God that gave a prophetic word
-
talking about it's go time. It talked about the people who
-
you going to be surprised made it and didn't make it and you
-
better go back to the words they said when you don't make it,
-
don't blame them. Go listen to the word.
-
He warned us a couple years ago that a day was coming and if I
-
remember correctly those that don't make it was supposed to
-
make it but had a choice. So be careful because you can't
-
explain the flood or the wind saying God said it's time.
-
By the time Jesus finished speaking the crowds was all
-
struck by his teaching because his words carried such great
-
authority. God keep raising people up that
-
speak on Jesus behalf full of the Holy Ghost and their words
-
carry such great authority. May there be people who
-
reverence the prophet's voice, the apostles voice, the men and
-
women of God that you have sent. May we be in all struck and and
-
understand when Jesus is speaking.
-
Watch this watch this. I was having dinner with a young
-
teenager teenager. Let me say this right, this 2025
-
and his parents Amen. I got to watch my back here
-
these days. The young man also his parents
-
was hosting to me. He he he doesn't like big crowds
-
Watch this watch this and he said this is this is a young
-
man. Don't look nothing like me.
-
OK, get what I'm saying? And and and, and they came from
-
another, another space. Anyway, he, he, he said he was
-
just opening up and he said, man, I've been to a lot of
-
churches and you know, they'll, they'll have, you know, 4530
-
minute whatever message and. They're talking about Jesus.
-
And then I go to Love Quest. Yes, the services are longer,
-
but it sounds like Jesus is talking to us.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
Watch how the young man interpreted the extended time.
-
He like. For some reason when I'm sitting
-
in this perfected, like ba ba ba ba message, you did Get Me Out
-
early, but you were teaching me about him.
-
But there's a difference in teaching me about Him and Him
-
talking to me. Lord, may there be a generation
-
that hungers for the voice of God and not just information
-
about You. Amen.
-
Amen. Watch this and he says watch.
-
This watch it, he says, because his words carried such great
-
authority, quite unlike the religious scholars.
-
I don't. I don't have time for Isaiah 60.
-
Yeah, I do. I'm just going to make time rise
-
up in splendor and be radiant. Wait.
-
Hey, you ready for this, EJ? This ain't the season for you to
-
have false humility or be shy or be like it ain't No, no, no.
-
This ain't the season. He's telling.
-
He's telling us there's a day. He's calling us to be radiant.
-
He's calling us to shine. He's calling us to rise up
-
right. For your light has dawned, and
-
Yahweh's glory. Now somebody shout out, now
-
streams from you. Watch this, he says, Now look
-
carefully, look carefully. Darkness blankets the earth and
-
thick clouds cover the nation's. But Yahweh arises up on you, and
-
the righteousness of his glory appears.
-
What over you remember Sunday I said you ain't normal.
-
How is how am I going to be consumed by the creator of the
-
heavens and the earth and be normal?
-
Watch what he say. Nations will be attracted to
-
your radiant light and kings to the sunrise glory of your what
-
new day get Guess what nations and kings bring provision.
-
This ain't the season to be like, Oh no, he said, rise and
-
be radiant. Watch this, I love this.
-
He didn't say just do you. He said, I'm on you, rise, rise
-
to my glory, I'm on you. My anointing is on you.
-
Rise to the occasion. It's an announcement that he's
-
on us and he's with us. So rise up.
-
Haitians will be attracted, he said.
-
Lift up your eyes higher. So he's calling us to see at a
-
higher level because it's so dark, you can't see how you used
-
to see. Watch this.
-
Some circles can't increase your vision.
-
It cannot help your vision. Here's a kid that's like.
-
But when I'm in there, man, yeah, it's longer.
-
I don't even realize the time because I it feels like I'm
-
hearing from God. Amen.
-
Come on. Look all around you and believe,
-
for your sons are returning from far away and your daughters are
-
being tenderly carried home. This is why the enemy want to
-
disrupt home. Watch this.
-
This is why the enemy don't want us to have a home.
-
It's because when God's children come home, they just going to be
-
stuck at the door knocking or they going to come in a house.
-
That's what divided Watch as they all gather together, eager
-
to come back to you. Jesus.
-
Then you will see the an under with understanding and be
-
radiant. Your heart will be thrilled and
-
swell with joy. The fullness of the sea will
-
flow to you and the wealth of the nations will be transferred
-
to you. That's a promise.
-
Somebody say that's a promise. Now here we go.
-
I want to give you something. I want to give you a few things
-
real quick. Some of this may be familiar.
-
Tommy, as I'm saying this, I need you to get together.
-
Nehemiah 218, Nehemiah 63, Nehemiah 14.
-
I mean Nehemiah 416 and then Genesis 12/2 and Matthew 544,
-
Nehemiah 218, Nehemiah 63. Nehemiah, he was not 63.
-
I don't know how tall Nehemiah was.
-
Nehemiah 416 and then Genesis 12/2 and Matthew 540-5544.
-
All right, follow me guys. We are perfected to #1 write it
-
down. We are being perfected to build
-
Nehemiah 218. Put it up.
-
The Scriptures are going to come in that order.
-
Then I told them of the hand of God, of my God.
-
Watch this. This is the man of God.
-
This is a man of God that sent to lead and build.
-
Watch it. Then I told them of the hand of
-
my God, which was upon me. For what good?
-
And also the words that the King had spoken to me and they said,
-
let us rise up and shout it out. Build so they strength they they
-
they they so they so so they strengthen their hands for the
-
good work that they they. God is always going to send a
-
man and woman to God the help that they need, but the help
-
also need to be OK with strengthening your own hands.
-
Go back. Those that hear the word but
-
don't apply it to their lives are foolish.
-
The word that is given is to prepare you, equip you, they.
-
He said you, you wonder if the if if I'm sent by God.
-
Let me tell you that God sent me.
-
You know what I know that is foolish as sometime we I may
-
look God has to prove he sent me.
-
I don't have to prove to you I'm sent.
-
I got to stand boldly on what he's called me to do.
-
Jeremiah, God, you got me out here looking crazy, but it's
-
like, like, I want to shut my mouth.
-
I don't want to preach no more, but it's like fire shut up in my
-
bones, right? God has to prove he sent me.
-
He tells Jeremiah, don't be afraid of their faces.
-
Do and say what I tell you to do.
-
I will prove you all. Right, watch this So he says.
-
Let us rise up and what build? Look at the people.
-
The people encouraged him. Let's rise up and build.
-
So they strengthen their hands for the what?
-
Good work. And then you keep reading and
-
and and folks laughed at them. Y'all doing that little
-
building, huh? Yeah.
-
Four months. That was funny.
-
I look back, that was funny. That was crazy, right?
-
But I have four months faith and I now I got four year faith.
-
It's OK. Right.
-
I'm here for it. I knew it was a four somewhere
-
in there. Amen.
-
Nehemiah 6 three. Watch this.
-
Watch this. And I sent messages to them
-
saying I am doing a great work and cannot come down.
-
Here's the temptation in this season, the enemy wants you to
-
what? Come down.
-
Say I'm not coming down at all. Come on.
-
Come on. Say today's price ain't the same
-
as yesterday's price. Right, you, you, you ever went
-
shopping and try to get a deal and they're like, I'm not, I
-
can't come down on that no more, right.
-
I'm the kind of person 50% already discounted.
-
I'm still asking for more discount.
-
They're like that's a good deal you get and I'm like, I know,
-
but I'm trying to get a gooder deal.
-
All right, I'm not coming down. Why should I stop?
-
Why should the work stop while I leave to come down to you?
-
So in this season, starting even with myself, is is is necessary
-
to refocus. Refocus.
-
OK #2 we are perfected to battle Nehemiah 416 through 18.
-
Watch it and from the time forest, half of my servants
-
worked at the task and the other half held the spear, Shields,
-
bows and coats of mail and the leaders stood behind the House
-
of Judah. Man Lord, the day comes that
-
everybody understands their part.
-
I I love when people say they so close with Jesus but they don't
-
know they part for Jesus. But who's seeking God for their
-
part, Lord in the season, you just need me to pray for pray
-
for the for the leaders. You need me to pray for the you
-
need me to what do you need? But it says that people are
-
standing there. Those who built the wall of
-
those watch this, those who built the wall and those who
-
bore burdens loaded themselves so that everyone worked with one
-
hand and held a. Boom held a weapon with the
-
other hand. Keep going.
-
And every builder and his sword girded by his side, and so
-
worked. And he who sounded the trumpet
-
was at my side. Watch this so because war
-
begins, because work is. Happening.
-
Sometimes folks don't even understand the reason is getting
-
so hard is because we're making progress, man, man see the enemy
-
ain't afraid of you doing program, program make comfy
-
right? What we're making actual like we
-
changing soil watch this. We not just building, we're also
-
turning generational bad soil back in the watch this we're
-
giving our kids good ground to sow into right?
-
The the enemy is not so afraid of what's being built.
-
He's afraid what's being built will cause generational
-
multiplication. So he's trying to, he's trying
-
to force us to, to, to, to, to abandon the foundation so that
-
the next generation who is called to build has to this.
-
This ain't Malachi's job. This ain't my grandkids job.
-
My, my, my, my my my kids and grandkids job is this.
-
Where's the generation that just got seed to soul right?
-
What if God is saying that the reason it's tough for you is
-
because you are building a foundation that generations
-
until I return can just multiply?
-
So fainting is a real temptation right now.
-
What's? This.
-
You said they, they, they. Worked here here's here's.
-
Where some people are getting knocked off you doing the work
-
and some of you are frustrated because it seemed like it's not
-
enough, but that's why you got a sword by your side.
-
And that's the thing for Christians, we know how to work
-
better than we do war. And that's what we're seeing is
-
how we're like, I'll serve, I'll do the work.
-
But you're you're also have to learn how to war, to battle.
-
And so we are perfected to build, we are perfected to
-
battle watch this. And we are also perfected to
-
bless Genesis 12/2. Put it up and I will make you a
-
great nation and I will bless you with abundant increase of
-
favor. What did he say?
-
I'm a bless you with abundant increase.
-
Somebody say abundant increase? And make your name what famous
-
and what distinguished, and you will be a blessing.
-
I am blessed to be a blessing. Matthew 544.
-
Watch it. But I tell you, love your
-
enemies and pray. What is this point right here?
-
You might think I'm blessed to just bless.
-
No, no, no. Here's where blessing people
-
gets hard. When you're warring, Can you
-
bless the enemy? Can you bless those who are
-
making it hard for you to do the work?
-
Can you bless? Can you bless that daddy?
-
You ain't blessing until you blessing your enemies.
-
Can you bless? Can you still love?
-
Can you still care for Watch this.
-
Remember, your enemy's not a person.
-
OK y'all got that. We are perfected to build, to
-
battle and to bless. The wind is blowing number one
-
because it's foundation inspection season Matthew 723.
-
Then I will say to them openly, I never knew you.
-
It is foundation. What have you been building on?
-
Watch this. Idols are being exposed, wounds
-
are being irritated. OK, the wind is blowing because
-
it is foundation. Inspection time number. 2.
-
The wind is blowing to expose our hearts.
-
I don't know about you, but it's a blessing when the Holy Spirit
-
exposes ugly stuff in US. Watch this.
-
It don't. Feel good, it don't feel good
-
but when you understand he didn't expose it to leave it, he
-
exposed it to take it right? Watch this Deliverance needs
-
agreement if you don't want to get rid of it.
-
He ain't going. To force you.
-
OK, let's read Matthew 13. This is where we're going to
-
close tonight because it wouldn't be fair for me to leave
-
you without a place to inspect. Now I'm only talking to the
-
people that are going to commit to being honest with themselves
-
and look at their own hearts. OK, Matthew 13 start at verse
-
19. Can you please put it up?
-
Go to where the Scripture starts.
-
I'm sorry. Go back to is it 14, Elder
-
Brett. So is the word.
-
Enemy comes immediately for it. He tells them a parable.
-
Here we go. Listen then to the meaning of
-
the parable of the sower. While anyone is here, say
-
anyone. While anyone is hearing the word
-
of the Kingdom and does not. Great.
-
Watch this. This is very important.
-
The devil is coming. For the word of the Kingdom and
-
does not grasp and comprehend it.
-
Grasp and comprehend it. Here's how I know I don't grasp
-
or comprehend because I don't apply.
-
Revelation has a way of moving you when you don't want to be
-
moved. So you got to know the
-
difference between revelation and excitement.
-
Does not grasp and comprehend it.
-
The evil one comes and snatches it away.
-
Watch this. What was sown in his or her
-
heart? He's snatching.
-
This is what was sown along the roadside.
-
As for what was sown on thin rocky soil?
-
This is he who hears the word and at once welcomes and accepts
-
it with joy. This is not just four different
-
soils, but you could also see the fruit.
-
Like I could tell which one you are.
-
That's maturity. I could tell where you at.
-
It's telling you watch this. You no go back on on rocky soil.
-
This is he or her who hears the word.
-
And at once you welcome it. You're like, yes, PT.
-
Yes, EJ. Yes.
-
Elder Brett. Yes, Sia.
-
Yes. Hallelujah, PT.
-
That was good. Say that again.
-
Hold on. Hold on.
-
You going too fast. I want to write that down.
-
Hola Hola. Hola.
-
Hola. Hola.
-
Hola, Hola. Both screens, right?
-
You're welcome. You are.
-
Hallelujah. Right, you see.
-
People right? I receive it at once.
-
Somebody say at once. They accept it with joy.
-
Yet yet it has no real root. But it's temporary inconsistent.
-
It lasts but a little while. The joy, the excitement, the
-
the, the unity, the the we're all in together.
-
And when affliction or trouble. Or persecution comes.
-
Watch this on the account of the Word.
-
Who brings it? The enemy brings it.
-
He's the devourer. He brings offense, he brings
-
accusation, he brings affliction.
-
Watch this on account of the word.
-
At once he or she is calls to stumble.
-
He is repelled and begins to distrust and desert him.
-
Watch this. Well, I'm not deserting.
-
Jesus. When you desert his body, when
-
you deserve this, desert the sent ones, when you start to
-
retreat from those that God has called you, you are also
-
deserting Him, especially when no one has hurt you.
-
Can you go back please? To desert him.
-
Whom Watch this. Watch this whom he ought to
-
trust and obey, and he falls away.
-
Watch this man shall not live by bread alone.
-
So you can't be like, I trust. This.
-
But do you trust the preceding word?
-
Preceding word is go over there. Go kill your son Abraham.
-
Abraham, I'm good. You don't got to kill him.
-
Proceeding word. If Abraham stopped here, he
-
would have killed his son. Then there's no.
-
Promise. He killed the promise.
-
You have to keep listening. So you can't just be like, I got
-
my devotion, I'm in love with Jesus, I'm on here.
-
But do you trust who God sends? Do you trust when God says turn?
-
Do you trust when God says wait? Do you trust apply the word?
-
I am here. My life is a sum total, yes of
-
of Jesus, but it is a sum total of words spoken by men and women
-
into and over my life. I'm not here without obeying the
-
prophets in my life. Watch it Kyrie.
-
As for what was sown? Among the thorns.
-
This is he or she who hears. The word watch it, but the cares
-
of the. World.
-
And the pleasure and delight and glamour and deceitfulness of
-
riches choke and suffocate the word, and it yields no fruit.
-
You can watch. Worldly.
-
Promotion come and those that were hot when they were praying
-
for it now get lukewarm. I'm not even talking about
-
money, I'm talking about. Spouses and friends.
-
And right you, we were. We were believing.
-
We was. Hallelujah.
-
That's the word. I'm sewing into that word.
-
No, no, keep sewing. You stopped at that, it says.
-
It says deceitful riches choke and suffocate the word, and it
-
yields no fruit. If you don't be fruitful for the
-
faithfulness of hearing you you. Here's what he said.
-
You stop that hearing. You didn't move on to
-
stewarding? And a part of stewarding is
-
applying and then when the enemy is in a.
-
Tug of war. For that word, because you are
-
applying, you got to get that sword from your side because
-
here it is. I am building as a part of
-
responding to the word. I'm not building because I got a
-
dream to build. I'm.
-
Building as my my. Response to the word US building
-
is applying the word. Not many times I had to pull out
-
my knife. To get here having stopped
-
building. But there are seasons that came
-
where I had to. Right, what the enemy want you
-
to do is here. Watch.
-
This stop the work. Focus on fighting.
-
No, no, no, no. I am anointed to build.
-
And battle. The combination is what's
-
deadly. If the enemy could just get you
-
building, he got you. If he could just get you.
-
Battling. He got you.
-
You got to the work. Don't stop.
-
Watch this. And As for?
-
What was sown? On good soil.
-
This is he who hears the word. They grasp it and comprehend it.
-
He indeed bears fruit. He indeed bears fruit and yields
-
in one case 100 times as much as was sown, in another 60 times as
-
much, and in another 30. So you know the hard.
-
Roadside soil is hardened. And it.
-
Is unreceptive. The first kind, the seed, is
-
quickly taken away by birds, which symbolizes the devil's
-
snatching away the Word of God #2 the rocky soul.
-
This represents a heart that receives the Word with immediate
-
joy, but has no deep roots. When faced with trials and
-
persecutions, the shallow faith Withers and falls away.
-
Thorny soil. This is choked out by the thorns
-
of life, which represent the cares of the world, deceitful
-
riches and other desires. These distractions prevent the
-
word from bearing fruit in the persons life and #4 good and
-
fertile soil. This is the heart that receives
-
the word with understanding, and continues to cultivate that
-
word. It bears fruit with some plants,
-
yielding 3060 a hundred times more than was sown.
-
So the Lord says in this. Hour you must.
-
Number one wake. Stay woke.
-
Isaiah 60. One through 6.
-
We read that awaken #2 you must get skillful at waging war.
-
It's Revelations. 11/10. And 1st Corinthians 12,
-
Revelations 1211 and 10 in that order.
-
We're going to close the night on that so #1 wake #2 wage war
-
#3 worship. #4 work #5 Watch I. Don't have time to get into?
-
These scriptures and. Number six, wait, we, we.
-
Must become mature in all. Of those, guess what we do have
-
now? Worship.
-
Wake. Wage war worship.
-
You see people like Stephen even though facing death.
-
He looks up and he starts worshiping Jesus.
-
You see the the three Hebrew boys, they they thrown in a
-
fiery furnace and what are you doing?
-
Praising the Lord? You see Daniel, when threatening
-
his life, he opened the window so they could see him.
-
Pray him. We we be focused on the fiery
-
furnace, but he they. They, they had, they had, they
-
had a great mentor. They he, he like, OK, whatever.
-
I'm going to open my window so you can see me praying.
-
I'm not hiding. I'm still going to worship my
-
God. Then work and watch and then
-
wait. I'll close it.
-
Revelations 1211 and then 10. Watch this.
-
I want you to watch this very closely.
-
This is wage war. Somebody say wage war.
-
Watch this. Very powerful.
-
Scripture, but a lot of. Times we don't read it in its
-
context, although we read it right, we don't read it in in in
-
its context. Watch this verse 11.
-
Can you read it? And and they have overcome,
-
they've conquered somebody shout out overcome.
-
They've overcome him by means. Of the blood of the lamb.
-
And by the utterance of their what testimony?
-
For they did not love and cling to life even when faced with
-
what death, holding their lives cheap till they had to die for
-
their witnessing. Watch this.
-
We often read. We overcome by the blood of the
-
Lamb and by the word of our what testimony.
-
Let's read this in contest. Give me the scripture right
-
before it then. I heard.
-
Wrong. Loud voice in heaven saying.
-
Now it has come, the salvation and the power and the Kingdom,
-
the dominion and the reign of our God, and the power, the
-
sovereignty. The authority of His, of of his
-
Christ, the Messiah. Watch this for the accuser of
-
our brethren. He who keeps bringing before our
-
God charges against them day and night has been cast out.
-
What is the Bible call the enemy.
-
This is one of his names. What is it?
-
Talk to me, the accuser of the. What?
-
Brethren, you ain't accusing me. He is the accuser of the
-
brethren, right? And so when we go back to the
-
soil and understand on, on, on, on because of the Word, here's
-
one way He divides us is back to the garden.
-
He makes suggestions. We read Sunday about he.
-
Said even even when they not not not not it was what is the word?
-
Ah, crap, not pick on not being critical, but I forget what this
-
other word was somewhere around there.
-
I forget what it huh, It was somewhere around there, but it
-
wasn't. It was, it was a cooler word
-
than that. Yeah.
-
I was the skeptical questions that one.
-
Skeptical. Questions where they come from,
-
right? Used to be the enemy starting
-
the garden. The moment I could begin to look
-
at you like that, watch. This now the enemy, that's that
-
heart. Watch this.
-
And then I go to her and be like you.
-
See what I'm saying? And then we it didn't, right?
-
It'd be like, I ain't really saying nothing, but then watch
-
it. I ain't saying nothing.
-
No, just. Watch this.
-
The accuser of the. Brethren comes in right, this is
-
very. Powerful.
-
This is very. Powerful.
-
One of the greatest tactics. The enemy's going to use in the
-
last days is to divide. This is why the Bible says watch
-
this the an abomination is to sow discord.
-
It's an abomination to sow discord.
-
So whatever this is, I immediately need to go to bro.
-
Here's why I'm. Looking at you sideways.
-
Can you fix my eyes for? Me.
-
You get what I'm saying? Conversations.
-
Fix eyes right? Because the enemy want this.
-
Right. Watch this Watch this Watch this
-
watch. This watch this.
-
You never saw it like this. Never.
-
Now let's read the next watch this.
-
He says he's been casting and they overcame.
-
He's about to he he's telling us how we overcome the accuser.
-
Now let's read. They overcome by the blood.
-
And the word see. See, we don't.
-
We don't only. Overcome.
-
See what the enemy wants to do with me and you, We shouted
-
together. We've cried together over our
-
testimonies. When I started looking at you
-
like this, I forgot how far you came and I forgot how far I
-
came. Because.
-
Of you, So what he's saying it ain't.
-
Just me telling you my. Testimony.
-
It's me reminding. Me of your.
-
Testimony is it's. Me seeing God still moving.
-
In your life, no matter how much you fall in the enemy.
-
Want me to go from seeing you as an overcomer to a threat.
-
So our testimony is very vital. That's why we walk together.
-
So when when the enemy comes to talk, I can look back and be
-
like, Nah, Troy's heart. I know I don't know why Troy
-
like this now, but I know Troy, let me help Troy get back to the
-
testimony right? It's for me to come instead of
-
accused to come to you and remind you man, how good God is
-
Troy. Get off them drug.
-
Get off that crack man. You remember.
-
God brought you from a long way. Right.
-
Look at your wife. Look at.
-
Your kids. Man right we overcome by the
-
blood of the Lamb in the word of the testimony and the enemy
-
wants us to forget how good God has been in me and your life
-
grace is. Rooted.
-
And stems from the. Goodness of God.
-
If I could get distracted by your.
-
Lack of goodness. And not keep focus.
-
On you are a fruit. Of his goodness in my life.
-
So let, let, let. Let's pray.
-
So I pray in. This church, as the enemy comes
-
to try and steal, kill and destroy, that we become more
-
intimate with one another in our prayer lives and in our
-
testimonies, and we become a reminder of how far God has
-
brought us. Watch this and I may be messing
-
up now or I may do something stupid now or something you
-
don't like now, but if you knew where God brought me from way
-
back then you know my little ugly ain't going to be ugly
-
always. So if you could just get, if you
-
could just. Deal.
-
With my ugly for a little bit, I promise you it won't be ugly
-
always. I won't be blind always.
-
I won't be in the dark always, right?
-
I won't always be like this. May we love one another in this
-
hour. Love.
-
Is a sword that we battle with. So while we working, may we not
-
forget to grace. Father, we thank you for the
-
sword. Of.
-
Love lest we. Forget.
-
We're all. Overcomers, we all come from
-
somewhere. And Laura, we won't just get
-
through the ribbon on the building I.
-
Don't even think it's about. I don't even think getting
-
through the ribbon is about the building.
-
I think the through the ribbon is us getting to the other side
-
of our lives and getting through those strongholds in our lives
-
and getting to the next dimension of our identity.
-
The promises of. Our lives that you have given.
-
US. But I thank you what you put.
-
Together, Lord, let no. Man, put asunder.
-
Come on guys, I thank you for unity.
-
In this house we're called Love Quest, Lord and love.
-
Love ain't always cute and comfy.
-
Sometimes love is uncomfortable. Families fight families.
-
Families don't understand each other always.
-
But they're a family because they do not get divided.
-
So Lord, we bind. The power.
-
Of the Devourer right now in Jesus name.
-
Come on, we bind. Them right now, in the name of
-
Jesus, may we be marked by unity, may we be marked by.
-
Grace. In Jesus name, come on unity and
-
grace and mercy. May we be marked by mercy.
-
Come on, just take a few moments.
-
Come on, may we see one another how you see us.
-
Hallelujah in Jesus name. Hey man watch this if you if you
-
are watching online or Instagram.
-
Man we are tearing each other apart and it was crazy.
-
Church and sides always have a new spokesperson.
-
And they did that. That young lady that's out there
-
right now? Forget.
-
Her name? Who Who?
-
Who's calling out people being false prophets like why
-
Instagram is not? A place for the church.
-
Like if I see a false. Prophet.
-
I go to him and try to restore him or her.
-
I don't make content about them. So what I am understanding is
-
the enemy is. Really.
-
After dividing the Kingdom? Because that is a terrible
-
witness. You are not called to side with
-
your convictions. What I mean by that I am not
-
called to you because we share the same convictions.
-
My wife and I didn't. Share.
-
The same. Convictions we had some some
-
commonalities, but in this hour the Bible.
-
Says people will go. From one teacher to another,
-
based on who, who, who is saying what I'm feeling right now?
-
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
-
I'm. Not choosing where I go because
-
I find allegiance or agreement over there.
-
Be careful to idolize where there's agreement sometime.
-
God is calling you. Where there's disagreement so he
-
can do this. Beautiful thing.
-
And mold us. Together.
-
Because we really agree on the same The main thing, the
-
important thing we agree on. Can we keep the main thing the
-
main thing? And I'm here to tell anybody in
-
here. If you.
-
Have a problem with anybody in this life?
-
Do it the Bible way. Go to them right away.
-
Don't even give it time to. Go.
-
To them, the enemy is trying to turn US against one another and
-
he's doing a good job. We look stupid out.
-
There and it's. Crazy because while she is
-
exposing the false prophet she got almost 1,000,000 views
-
because we sharing it. So if you are as bad as her if
-
you share. Her posts.
-
No, no, no, the enemy. Needs us to choose sides,
-
because when you choose sides other than Jesus we will end up
-
divided. Lord, we thank you, Lord.
-
We love you. May we have eyes?
-
To see in this. Hour.
-
As your word was blue in some time, we don't have time for
-
explanation. You're asking us to trust you.
-
In this dark hour. May we rise above and see you.
-
Keep our eyes on you. In this last day.
-
They go, no, we are yours by our love.
-
Everybody fights. Not everybody.
-
Walked together after disagreement.
-
May our witness resemble your love.
-
Fear that. We've done the fact that Spirit
-
of God, Spirit of life, Spirit of God, we need the fear of the
-
Lord. Thank you so much for tuning in
-

-
