  1. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Love Quest International

  2. Church podcast, where we seek to love all nations, equip the

  3. church, mobilize the equipped, and serve all.

  4. We're super glad you're joining us from whenever and wherever

  5. you're at in the world. Welcome to the family to get

  6. your Bibles ready, get some water, get some coffee, maybe

  7. some tea, and get ready to receive.

  8. It's cold time. Let's get into it.

  9. Come. On If you believe that, just

  10. lift your hands right where you are.

  11. I think I'm in the room with a with a few people who know how

  12. to end the year. And yeah, there you go.

  13. There you go, claim it. Now, I'm not going to lie to you

  14. right now. I really feel like, you know,

  15. stirring things up and just because God's been great and I

  16. just want to celebrate. But there's just a word that

  17. I've been holding for a while and I am going to do my best to

  18. articulate it. But I do know, and this is no

  19. false humility at all, what I am about to release to you is so

  20. above me or you or education or seminary or this is something

  21. that you have to catch in your spirit.

  22. Has somebody walk up to me earlier and was like PT.

  23. Now that I understand how to receive a prophetic word, I am

  24. so pumped to receive tonight's word.

  25. Last year I didn't know how to hear prophetic words and if you

  26. can't hear, you can't receive, right?

  27. There's some people came because you just looking for something

  28. to do, but when people are like, you know, I, I need to get this

  29. word for the new year. I don't know about you, but the

  30. word has every every single year.

  31. The word that God has given this house has steered the way for

  32. every year. That's why there's been no panic

  33. in my household because we got a what word?

  34. And so for those that are just here to celebrate or you just

  35. like I'm just going to, instead of going out like I usually do,

  36. I'm just going to go to church and you've come so you can feel

  37. good or whatever about yourself. Look, man, that's a great step.

  38. But what you need to get is you need to get this word.

  39. And I don't care where you're driving back to, flying back to,

  40. rowing, back to what? However, you getting back to

  41. where you're getting back to, I am telling you this word is for

  42. you to take back. If you are here.

  43. Tonight there is no coincidence. You're not that, that you're not

  44. so in charge of your life that you just here because God didn't

  45. have no plan for you. This is your plan in your in

  46. your old right mind. You wouldn't be at church

  47. tonight. So you are here for a reason.

  48. And what I need you guys to do is I need you guys to help the

  49. room stay focused. I love kids and it's totally

  50. fine. And I and we, we pray for

  51. parents and all that, but those that don't have kids don't adopt

  52. kids tonight. Let parents be parents because

  53. some of y'all be hiding over holding other people's kids and

  54. guest services. We don't need 30 people.

  55. It ain't raining so we don't need no mopping.

  56. I am just really asking you because a word can be life or

  57. death for somebody. Put it this way, a word saved me

  58. and a word saved humanity. And so take notes.

  59. But if you had to choose between taking notes and catching it in

  60. your Holy Ghost, your spirit, catch it and then go back and

  61. listen and take notes. But I need you guys to pray for

  62. me that that I hear efficiently and I deliver what I need to

  63. deliver. But I also need you to pray for

  64. yourself that you hear in your spirit.

  65. Man, I will tell you this. And nobody in this room can

  66. afford to have another year like you had, good or bad.

  67. Champions know how to move forward from last year's

  68. victory. God is about to do something

  69. very disruptive in all of our lives for the better.

  70. But how you position your life, it can.

  71. It can bless you or it can destroy you.

  72. Not what God does destroy you. How you handle what God does

  73. destroy you. And so, in the presence of God,

  74. on this New Year's Eve, let's have a seat.

  75. Let me pray first. Father, I thank you for your

  76. presence. It is the greatest commodity in

  77. humanity. Father, I thank You that you are

  78. our friend and we are your friend.

  79. Thank you that you are our Father and we are no longer

  80. orphans. We are no longer slaves to fear.

  81. We are children of the Most High God, the Creator of the heavens

  82. and the earth. His mind is on you right now.

  83. And Lord, I thank you that you have prepared a word for our

  84. next year. Therefore, no matter what

  85. happens next year, you've given us a focus.

  86. You've given us a word that will not only impact this house

  87. corporately, but it is a word that will impact all of our

  88. families lives. Well, may we take the word of

  89. God serious in 2024. May we not be a generation that

  90. just take your word. You're speaking to us for

  91. granted. I thank you, Father, that the

  92. spirit of revelation is in this house.

  93. Yeah, come on, receive that for yourself.

  94. Say tonight I have ears to hear better than I've ever heard

  95. before. Holy Spirit, quicken, our

  96. spirits tonight, deposit in our hearts what we need to hear and

  97. what we need to receive, and I declare there.

  98. Is a high unusual retention rate of the word tonight that we will

  99. be fruitful tonight. I thank you for this word.

  100. Lord. Lives will radically be changed.

  101. Father, I thank you. This word will calm the storms

  102. in our minds. It will give direction, it will

  103. give clarity. Yes, your spirits here, and give

  104. your servant by the anointing the ability to articulate

  105. heavenly language. Come against the spirit of

  106. error, any errors, Holy Spirit, I lay my mind, my philosophies,

  107. my my, my thinking, my ways down.

  108. Give you 100% permission to correct me.

  109. Stop me full in my tracks. But I thank you Father, that

  110. truth will be spoken boldly, uncompromisingly, and your

  111. children will be fruitful. Accelerated fruit in Jesus name,

  112. Amen. You could be seated and if you

  113. don't mind whispering to your neighbors, say please do not

  114. disturb me tonight. I am not playing with my life.

  115. And the angels cry holy creation.

  116. The willings you'll hide Holy, holy forever hear your people

  117. say. To the King of Kings, you will

  118. always be holy forever. What?

  119. What if this was the year? Everything changed for you Now,

  120. one thing I can promise you tonight is I am Hallelujah.

  121. Are you going to have to come back up?

  122. Are you going to have to come back up?

  123. All right, all right, all right. One thing I can promise you

  124. about tonight. I have a lot of reading to do,

  125. OK. And that's hard for me because I

  126. love to leave my iPad and, and, and just flow.

  127. But I do understand the importance and urgency of

  128. tonight's word. And this is for 100% of the

  129. hearers and the babies. The word will be imparted.

  130. I'll say that again. The babies that can't sit up and

  131. take notes and understand like you.

  132. This word will be imparted into their spirits.

  133. What if this was the year everything changed?

  134. Matthew 7 says Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord will

  135. enter into heaven's Kingdom. It is only those who persist in

  136. doing the will of my heavenly Father.

  137. Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord will enter into

  138. heaven's Kingdom. Some people abuse this and says

  139. not everyone will make it to heaven.

  140. Right here we're not talking about eternal life.

  141. We're talking about heaven on earth, the Kingdom of heaven,

  142. the good life that God promised you while you are living on this

  143. side. Not everyone who goes to church,

  144. not everyone who is a born again believer.

  145. It is those that persist to do the will of God, not just go to

  146. church. Lots of Christians, not a lot of

  147. followers. I got to stay.

  148. I got to stay. On the day of judgment, many

  149. will say to me, Lord, Lord, don't you remember us?

  150. Didn't we prophecy in your name? Didn't we cast out demons and do

  151. many miracles in your name? But I will have to say, what did

  152. Jesus say? I'll have to say I, I can't

  153. change up. I can't switch up, although we

  154. will see each other face to face and that will be a good day.

  155. I will have to say to you, go away from me, you lawless

  156. rebels. I've never been joined to you

  157. now. Now, on one end you could think

  158. that he's talking about sinners, meaning the lost, the ones that

  159. refuse to follow him. But often in the Bible, the Old

  160. Testament calls the word the law, and we got a lot of lawless

  161. Christians, meaning you don't follow the word.

  162. So there's going to be a lot of people show up and say, hey, I

  163. went to church in your name. Hey, I prayed in the parking lot

  164. in your name. Hey, I even prophesied to people

  165. in your name, He going to say, but you never obeyed anything I

  166. asked. Obeying His word joins us at the

  167. hip with Him. Everyone who hears my teaching,

  168. here it is and applies to His life can be compared to a what

  169. wise man or woman who built his or her house on an unshakable

  170. foundation? Here is the keyword.

  171. I underlined it for you. Everyone who hears come to

  172. church, get a word and then what apply?

  173. What counts apply what? What count applies?

  174. Come on. We got to slow it down and

  175. really stop playing church. Now he says here's and what

  176. apply shout it out, apply, shout it out one more time.

  177. Applies to his life, not his spouse life.

  178. You know how you like to get a word and share it with somebody?

  179. You know how you tell somebody I wish you was at church today the

  180. word was good. You know how you text people on

  181. the way? Oh my God, you should have been

  182. here today. No, get the word.

  183. Oh who here and applies it to his life can be compared to a

  184. what wise man or woman who built his house on an unshakable

  185. somebody say unshakable when the rains fell and the flood came

  186. with fierce winds boom boom boom boom beating I I I I italicize

  187. this word beating because the rain just didn't pass through

  188. the rain came and test your foundation.

  189. It's beating it's shaking the sea.

  190. If you really the real deal stood firm because of its strong

  191. foundation. It stood firm because of its

  192. strong foundation. But but everyone who hears my

  193. teaching and does not apply to his or her life can be compared

  194. to a foolish man or woman who built his house on sand when it

  195. rained and rained and the flood came with wind and waves beating

  196. up on his house. It what collapsed and was swept

  197. away. One translation says great was

  198. it's fall because ain't nothing worse than somebody that's

  199. always coming to church, always getting prayer, always on the

  200. prayer calls, but do not apply the word great is your fault

  201. right? The fall is longer when the when

  202. you when you got that chance versus the world they already in

  203. fall. They don't got too far to fall

  204. because they didn't already what fail but you?

  205. He says by the time Jesus finished speaking, the crowds

  206. were awestruck. Somebody say awestruck 2 times

  207. by his teaching because here it is.

  208. His words carried such great authority, quite unlike the

  209. religious folks. You know, you know, you know,

  210. some of us has said in these churches that are great

  211. Christian churches, big great teaching and then somebody come

  212. along one day and preach with some anointing and authority and

  213. that's what he's saying. He reading the same scroll, but

  214. there's authority on this thing said the people was awestruck.

  215. Somebody say awestruck 2 times. When's the last time you've been

  216. awestruck by the word of God? Keep going PT.

  217. You see how like I need a chair or a leash or something on here?

  218. In 2025 when God comes to inspect?

  219. In 2025, when God comes and inspect, what will the meters of

  220. your foundation read? Rather, you've been building or

  221. not, you've had building time. In 2025, God desires to build an

  222. unshakable house church. Too many of His churches or

  223. houses are falling. Buildings, communities and

  224. houses, leaders, Christians, priests falling.

  225. Hey, you might be like I ain't falling away, but you lukewarm

  226. your temperature then went down or has it ever been up?

  227. Hallelujah, unwavering. God is trying to build and he,

  228. he is building unwavering, immovable Davidic people and

  229. place places that stands the test of the times.

  230. You know what God's interested in, in these, in, in this, in

  231. this, in this next season, in the season, actually now, but

  232. moving forward is building houses that can last the test of

  233. times where we're heading. There's too many fragile

  234. believers. There's too many timid

  235. believers. There's too many offended

  236. believers. We we don't, we church hop.

  237. Hop from a church that's dead. Don't hop from a church that's

  238. holding you accountable. Right.

  239. We'd rather sit in a dead 1 then go somewhere that will challenge

  240. us. But God is telling us, man,

  241. accountability is what will cause us to stand the test of

  242. time. In 2025 it's a you guys got to

  243. follow me. Please follow me follow it help

  244. it will help me articulate. It will help me articulate very

  245. well. It's a time of divine design.

  246. The power of God, hear me, will rest on and in houses and a

  247. people here it is that pattern their lives after the Davidic

  248. design of the Kingdom of God. Just doing religion and just

  249. doing church. It will get people to heaven,

  250. but it will not get heaven into people's lives.

  251. Come on. Did my chapstick roll away?

  252. All right, all right. I don't play with my chapstick.

  253. Somebody you got that? I'll buy you one if you get that

  254. one for me. Thank you, Sir.

  255. Appreciate it, Sir. Here it is, here it is, here it

  256. is even this language right here like you, you really got

  257. churches that fight against or don't accept or not even open to

  258. five fold ministry. I'm not, I'm not.

  259. I can't go there right now. But but, but please understand

  260. what I'm telling you. My God is not surprised by the

  261. darkness of today. My God, before it even got dark,

  262. gave his church a strategy. He gave us order, He gave us

  263. format, He gave us divine design and we're trying to do it all by

  264. man's design. I remember we planted this

  265. church and I remember the Lord's very clear.

  266. I didn't read but I I had read Church plant means that church

  267. planting movement sticky. Church and.

  268. Purpose driven this and you can go find all kind of books on how

  269. to plant a church. Well, that's an American author.

  270. How, how how how are you going to tell me how to plant in BC?

  271. Right. What where to me like where's

  272. the depending on the Holy Ghost to plant when he the one started

  273. the church? I'm not saying don't read, but

  274. we're reading other we're trying to get other we're we're we're

  275. we're trying to get other people's patterns, other

  276. people's strategies versus depending on the one who started

  277. the thing and supposedly called us.

  278. OK, keep going PT in 2025. It is not a time of divine

  279. decor. OK, let me explain.

  280. It's not about looking or playing the part, it is about

  281. being the part threaded into the fabric of the Davidic nature and

  282. DNA of God's Kingdom. Divine design, not Decor.

  283. We not just about to act church. We not just about to look

  284. bright. We not just about to say we

  285. saved by faith in Jesus name. No, we are going to be in the

  286. very fabric of what God is doing.

  287. First Chronicles, follow me. David was thinking somebody say

  288. Davidic David was it's right here.

  289. David was thinking, my son Solomon is too young to plan

  290. ahead for this, but the sanctuary that is to be built

  291. for God has to be the greatest. The talk of all the nations.

  292. Hear me out before we go forward.

  293. David had a burn in his heart to build God a temple.

  294. And then the prophet Nathan, he told him and he said, David,

  295. whatever's in your heart, go do it.

  296. The prophet lays down. God gives him a dream.

  297. Here it is. And although David had the

  298. passion, the conviction and he had the burn, God told the

  299. prophet Nathan, he said, tell him he won't be the one to build

  300. it. Do you know how heartbreaking

  301. that would be? He he says he will not be the

  302. one to build it, but here it is. It had to be built in his

  303. lineage, OK. OK.

  304. It it just wasn't any bloodline it had because God had a plan to

  305. redeem his people. So the temple had to be built in

  306. the bloodline of David. Here it is, here it is.

  307. But the sanctuary that is to be built for God, it has to be the

  308. greatest, It has to be the talk of the nation.

  309. This, this house can't just be another building, another church

  310. service, another people. It just can't.

  311. What God is trying to do, it just can't.

  312. Just like you are the sanctuary of God, you can't just settle to

  313. be just another this or another that.

  314. God didn't move me into BC to be another pastor.

  315. I will move back home. And me and God and God know that

  316. too. It's the part of our comment

  317. y'all don't need. No more pastors, no more

  318. teachers, no more church buildings, no more churches, no

  319. more theological seminaries. Y'all let this country got

  320. enough. You don't need another book.

  321. Don't need another prophetic conference.

  322. Here's the crazy part, when it's your time, it's your time.

  323. Even if somebody else has the vision for it, stay right here.

  324. So so I'll get the construction. Here's David talking to his son.

  325. He having a one-on-one talk. So I'll get the construction

  326. materials together. That that's why David prepared

  327. this huge stockpile of building materials before he died.

  328. That that was that was David's. That was David's leg of the

  329. race. That was his part.

  330. Follow me. Then he called in Solomon his

  331. son and commanded him to build a sanctuary for the God of Israel.

  332. David said to Solomon, I wanted I wanted in the worst way to to

  333. to build a sanctuary to honor my God.

  334. Y'all think we building this building, Nick?

  335. Y'all think we doing all of this because we just need a home?

  336. If you, I'm sitting there getting this message ready today

  337. and I'm like, God, if I don't do nothing else in my life, I want

  338. a home for you. Come on.

  339. Amen. I want a place where you can

  340. live. I want a place where your lost

  341. sons and daughters can come and encounter you tangibly.

  342. People just walk in the building and just sit around.

  343. And there is no reverence in the North American church.

  344. Guess we got to be somewhere where we in poverty and in

  345. orphanages and our parents die of age.

  346. Maybe we need this. But, but, but, but there's no

  347. type of urgency. There's no type of hunger.

  348. You can't find it. We just casually just walk in

  349. and walk in and just hey, and like, not man, this, this is the

  350. King's house and This is why we are in this holding cell.

  351. Before we walk over there. I'm trying to tell you when we

  352. walk over there, you ain't going to be able to walk in the same.

  353. If you do, you're going to encounter something for real.

  354. This thing next door, it's not another building.

  355. Build a sanctuary to honor my God.

  356. But God prevented me saying here it is.

  357. You killed too many people, you fought too many wars.

  358. You are not the one to honor me by building a sanctuary.

  359. Now if we hear this conversation, we'd be like, wait

  360. a minute, how is Jesus son of David?

  361. Why is he rebuilding? This is not just Old Testament.

  362. This is in the book of Acts and Acts 15, right?

  363. The there's a, there's a David had the divine design.

  364. David had the strategy. He had the, the, the, the, the,

  365. the model, but his son had to build the house to put the model

  366. in. But but God prevented me.

  367. He said you killed too many people.

  368. You've been responsible for too much killing, too much

  369. bloodshed. But you are going to have a son

  370. and he will be a quiet and peaceful man.

  371. And I will calm his enemies down on all sides.

  372. His very name will speak peace. That is Solomon, which means

  373. peace. We know somebody else by that

  374. name. Peace, Prince of Peace.

  375. Here it is. Here it is.

  376. I want you, he said. The person whose house, the

  377. person who I'm choosing to build my house has to be their name,

  378. has to represent peace. See this this message right

  379. here, I guess started in me long time ago when I had thousands,

  380. not not thousands, hundreds of just form formats of names,

  381. formulas and different. And God landed on love quest and

  382. he said at the international churches at the time where you

  383. know, I grew up in Saint John Missionary Baptist Church, real

  384. long name. Then there's this movement where

  385. it's just one name River church, right?

  386. Fire Church, right? It's all trendy stuff.

  387. Is this we we we got to make it easy to say right now and what

  388. God said he said no, you going to name it Love Quest

  389. International Church because the place that you are in, I mean,

  390. when people just read the name, they already even consider there

  391. may be a place for them. OK, OK.

  392. And then he said no, you going to call it love?

  393. I know, I know it seems cliche, but I am going to restore store

  394. the name of love through this ministry.

  395. And then he says, and then he and then he goes.

  396. He said you can make it long because people going to call it

  397. what they want to call it anyway.

  398. This is my house. So you're not naming it.

  399. For. Trends and likes and easy to say

  400. we didn't love Quest Nation luck where with all LQIC we we, we

  401. going to call it what we going to call it.

  402. And I'll give peace and rest under his roof.

  403. I'll give peace and rest under his roof.

  404. He will be the one to build a sanctuary in my honor.

  405. He'll he'll be my royal adopted son and I'll be his boy.

  406. You get listen, you get, you get real when you get God's

  407. attention when you want to build him a house.

  408. I know he's the one that calls the people to do that.

  409. But when you got a heart to say God, I will do whatever it takes

  410. to get you a house. The one we not sharing with the

  411. club. We not No, no, no.

  412. It's nothing wrong with that. To each his own, but when you

  413. start telling your father he can come home and I'll I'll make

  414. I'll make sure that the authority here it is of his

  415. Kingdom. Please pay attention.

  416. His authority of his Kingdom over Israel last for what does

  417. forever mean? So that means that throughout

  418. generations, that means there's a pattern that he, there's

  419. something he's building that every generation should pay

  420. attention to, right? There's not one generation that

  421. is in a time of history that don't have a pattern or a

  422. strategy to combat the darkness of that time.

  423. So so now, son God be with you David telling now son God be

  424. with you. Godspeed as you build the

  425. sanctuary for your God. Here it is the job God has

  426. called or has given love quest and May God also give you

  427. discernment and understanding when he puts you in charge of

  428. Israel so that you will rule. And here it is somebody say

  429. reverend obedience under God's revelation.

  430. You may he give you discernment and understanding when he puts

  431. you in charge of Israel so that you will rule in reverent

  432. obedience under God's revelation.

  433. There's some stuff you can't build by nothing but revelation

  434. that that's that that's what will make you successful.

  435. What what will make you successful.

  436. Let's back it up and May God also give you discernment and

  437. understanding when He puts you in charge of Israel so that you

  438. will rule in reverent obedience, reverent obedience, reverent

  439. obedience under God's revelation.

  440. That's what will make you successful.

  441. That that here it is following the here it is following the

  442. directions and doing the things that God commanded Moses for

  443. Israel. Courage.

  444. Take courage, son. Don't be timid, man.

  445. I'm reading this, this, this is David talking to me.

  446. I don't know how you read the word, but when you find your

  447. assignment in the Bible, it's as good as David telling Solomon,

  448. courage, love quest, take charge.

  449. Love quest, don't be timid. Love quest, don't hold back to

  450. and I'll add, don't apologize, Love quest.

  451. Look at this, look at this, look at this.

  452. I've gone, I've gone to a lot of trouble to do the heavy lifting

  453. to stockpile materials for the sanctuary of God Love quest.

  454. This generation folks have paid for what God has called us to

  455. do. That's why I ain't worried about

  456. the money it because it's already it's been stockpiled.

  457. It's been God has already listen, listen.

  458. God has been waiting for the right time and the right people,

  459. the obedient people and watch what's all this release,

  460. release, release we've been talking about that's off the

  461. back of somebody else who was faithful.

  462. You ready even if your parents or your family or your past or

  463. fail, there was a part in their ministry that stockpiled some

  464. things you needed. Even that nobody's work for God

  465. is wasted or in vain. The material has been gathered.

  466. The material has been gathered. All that we need to build and

  467. battle is before you. No excuses in 2025, just

  468. obedience. Here it is, Here it is.

  469. The program moving forward is presence.

  470. Presence Presence presenter. OK, I know Pro is short for

  471. program presenter, Pro presenter, the software that

  472. runs most churches, but for us it will be the presence

  473. presenter. The program is presence.

  474. Pro presenter works for presence.

  475. The father is building a home for his children to encounter

  476. him, not merely know about him. Second Chronicles.

  477. I got to go. I got a long way to go, but I

  478. got to go. That's why I got to go.

  479. Because I got a long way to go. The priest then left the holy

  480. place. Here it is moving forward.

  481. Presence. Somebody say presence.

  482. The priest then left the holy place.

  483. All the priests. Somebody say all the priests.

  484. Let me. Let me help some of you new

  485. folks in the church. I'm not the only priest in here.

  486. You're a priest. That's Bible.

  487. So you expecting us elders to do the work?

  488. No, no, no, no. You're a priest.

  489. I am a leader of a priesthood. OK.

  490. OK. So I just want you to watch all

  491. the priests. There were consecrated.

  492. Here It is. All the priests there were

  493. consecrated, regardless of rank or assignment.

  494. I don't care if you in hospital, I don't care if you work in the

  495. door. I don't care if you make him

  496. punch. I don't care if you an engineer.

  497. I don't care if you doing lights.

  498. I don't care if you're a drummer.

  499. I don't care if you're in children's church.

  500. The call is that all priests, regardless of rank or

  501. assignment, is consecrated. You want to take a city all have

  502. to consecrate all Levites who were musicians were there,

  503. Asaph, Haman and Judithan and and their families dressed in

  504. their worship roles. It sounds like they was ready to

  505. worship. It sounds like they took

  506. worship. Here's a pattern.

  507. It sounds like when they approached worship, there was a

  508. reverence, not this casual, just I'm going to church.

  509. There was. I am approaching the throne of

  510. God. Amen.

  511. Thank God. Come on.

  512. Here it is. Here it is.

  513. See at the choir and the orchestra assembled on the east

  514. side of the altar. And we're joined by 120 priests

  515. blowing trumpets, quiet where the choir and trumpets made.

  516. Didn't have to beg nobody to open their mouth.

  517. The orchestra in choir, in perfect harmony, all the teams

  518. were in perfect harmony singing and playing.

  519. Praise to God. Some folks may think when you're

  520. not in the sanctuary or you working in the parking lot, you

  521. missing something. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

  522. Everybody if you serving, you worshiping.

  523. Serving ain't about you. You're serving running God's

  524. house. Everywhere is a room that God is

  525. in. God ain't just in this room.

  526. Perfect harmony. Say yes, God is good, His loyal

  527. love goes on forever. This they song, this that song

  528. and then you go forward. It says.

  529. Then a billowing cloud filled the temple of God.

  530. Then after the order and after the honor and after the unity,

  531. then the billowing cloud filled the temple of God.

  532. The priest couldn't even carry out their duty.

  533. Seek program presence over Rd. program.

  534. They, they they couldn't even carry out their duties because

  535. of the cloud. Somebody say the cloud, the

  536. glory cloud the glory of God that filled the temple of God.

  537. Here it is a rhythmic design of unity, consecration and

  538. Thanksgiving in 2025, a rhythmic design of unity consecration and

  539. think how do you get rid? You can't get rhythm off of one

  540. step sometime not even off 2 steps.

  541. Rhythm is developed through constant movement.

  542. You, you just can't be cool serving or cool worshipping.

  543. One Sunday, one year. Three years.

  544. No, there's a rhythm in the earth.

  545. Do you know how long we fail? Do you know what it takes to get

  546. us in alignment with heaven as a lifestyle, not a worship night?

  547. A Davidic people and place live in here.

  548. It is. This is where a Davidic people

  549. love quest and a Davidic place live in a holding pattern of

  550. consecration, fighting for unity and celebrating.

  551. Often it's a holding pattern. Don't believe me?

  552. Love Quest has been in a holding pattern from New West to

  553. Vancouver to Langley to the building next door.

  554. This ain't what he showed us. This this this is the this this

  555. is where he has been developing. Let me keep going.

  556. Second Chrono. Second chrono 7 When when

  557. Solomon who we talking about? Solomon.

  558. All we've been talking about, we've been looking at David and,

  559. and the pattern of worship and praise and honor and reverence.

  560. And then we're looking at, although he did not build the

  561. house, we see the promise of presence passed on to his son

  562. and we see him carrying it. You, you look, look young folks,

  563. even older do not take for granted the people who have

  564. paved the way for you. You are meant to reap a harvest

  565. and experience a cloud that they may not have ever experienced.

  566. In measure. When Solomon had finished

  567. praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt

  568. offering and and here it is offering and sacrifices.

  569. Here it is, and the shekinah glory and brilliance of the Lord

  570. fill the house, the shekinah glory, the glory and brilliance

  571. of the Lord. Some of you might be like what

  572. Shekinah glory? It is the manifested presence.

  573. Here it is wherever God's word is, His presence is So His

  574. presence is at every church that proclaim His name.

  575. Wait for it. But not many churches experience

  576. his manifested presence. See, we just think, oh God, God

  577. is everywhere. No, no, he is but but, but but

  578. have you ever been in a church and you like man where God at

  579. and Shekinah glory is manifested presence it.

  580. It's a presence that stops you in your tracks.

  581. It's a presence that won't let you be done in 90 minutes if you

  582. pay attention. It's a presence that will make

  583. you go and apologize even when you have been wronged.

  584. It is a presence that will have a group of people lingering

  585. after the benediction has been done, hours later, still stirred

  586. up. You ready here?

  587. Here's where we're going. It says the kind of glory filled

  588. the house. Ready.

  589. Not just a few people, right, right, like like the days of

  590. staring at me, 'cause I'm, I'm, I'm experiencing this presence

  591. got to be over. We just need a few more people

  592. to realize he's here. And then you respond right here.

  593. You ready? Responding to God's presence is

  594. contagious. And the more people who interact

  595. with God in one place, the the the greater the IT start

  596. flooding the place. Yeah.

  597. The priest could not enter the House of the Lord because the

  598. glory and the brilliance of the Lord have filled the Lord's

  599. house. Here's the crazy part.

  600. We talk about the time where it filled buildings.

  601. We go to Hebrews. He said, I'm not making houses

  602. and buildings that can be made with man's hands.

  603. Come on people, hear me, hear me.

  604. The way that this brilliance is in this temple, it's pointing to

  605. you. God wants this brilliance to

  606. manifest in your life. Let's take every word from 2024

  607. now and bring it to this present moment for where we going.

  608. Why? Why are you staring at me?

  609. Get my praise on like praise is supposed to be started because I

  610. feel it. Do you go to work because you

  611. feel like it? Do you brush your teeth because

  612. you just feel like it, right? How much stuff you do in a day

  613. you don't feel like it. But when it come to worshipping

  614. God, you need 1000 scriptures. You need you.

  615. You, you need to have been raised in that culture, man.

  616. This raising your hand, clapping your hands, stomping your feet.

  617. That's all Bible and your portion is needed in here.

  618. OK if if I just pour my cup of water let me tell you it's going

  619. to get wet right here. But if everybody start pouring

  620. water man this place can get flooded.

  621. Some of y'all are so selfish with your praise.

  622. When all the people of Israel saw how the fire came down, when

  623. all the people of Israel saw how the Presence came down and saw

  624. the glory and brilliance of the Lord up on the House, they bowed

  625. it when it went. When the folks saw the Presence,

  626. when, when folks saw the glory of God on you, how it brought

  627. joy to you, how it caused you to lift your hand, how you was at

  628. the altar, how it brought you to tears, how it brought you to

  629. repentance. Then others began to worship

  630. God. Hold up, hold up, hold up, hold

  631. up on stone pavement. So when you think they had rugs

  632. back then that they stone pavement, some of y'all didn't

  633. got on your knees for most stuff than worship.

  634. I'm talking so don't act like your knees can't touch the

  635. ground. Hallelujah in this holy temple

  636. and they worship and praise the Lord saying for he is good for

  637. they worship. It looked like they opened their

  638. mouth because if nobody opened their mouth, they wouldn't have

  639. the words to tell us what they were saying.

  640. His love and kindness endure forever.

  641. Listen. Then the king and all the people

  642. offered a sacrifice before the Lord.

  643. All the people, all the people. King Solomon offered a sacrifice

  644. of 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep.

  645. That brother offered 120,000 sheep.

  646. Here's a pattern. A House of sacrifice, not a

  647. house that gives because they can.

  648. In this way, the king and all the people dedicated God's

  649. house. The priest stood at their post

  650. the priest stood at their post ready for service.

  651. It sounds like they had a just in case posture wasn't about

  652. y'all don't need me today. No, no, they stood at their post

  653. ready for service. And and the Levites also with

  654. the musical instruments of of the Lord, which King David had

  655. made to the praise of the Lord, say for his loving kindness and

  656. mercy endure forever. Whenever David offered praise

  657. through their ministry, the priests were opposite of the

  658. Levites blowing the trumpets and all Israel was standing.

  659. They were standing. What, what, what, what kind of

  660. house is this? With such honor, habitation

  661. precedes honor, excellence and order.

  662. So Solomon finished the House of the Lord and the palace of the

  663. king. He successfully accomplished all

  664. that he had planned. We going to finish this house.

  665. Look, look, look, look. Then the Lord appeared.

  666. After he finished the house, the Lord appeared by night and said

  667. to him, Here it is. I heard your prayers and have

  668. chosen this place for myself. Like like like like like like I

  669. didn't. I didn't lost my mind walking in

  670. that old beat up abandoned garage with vision.

  671. And not one time from the day I walked in that garage, not one

  672. moment have I even thought of this ain't God's house.

  673. He put a family together, love, quest to build him a home, a

  674. resting place and palace of worship for our king.

  675. If you want to know why you've been brought to this house.

  676. For those that really call this a house.

  677. He brought us together to build him a home that will stand the

  678. test of times from generation to generation.

  679. He has entrusted us with an essential key to the Kingdom.

  680. Here it is a model home for last day living.

  681. You want to know why we got to worship how we work?

  682. Look, look, look. I'm not a fool to think that he

  683. has sent. I don't know how much anointed

  684. skillful talent in the garage season.

  685. No, no, no, no. You got to hear me.

  686. The oil that's in this house is not for any Pay attention.

  687. If God has supplied you. If I walked in, if I walked in

  688. and gave you a brand new white suit out of nowhere, you would

  689. probably say where where are we going?

  690. Because what I the the the the lavishness of what I put in your

  691. hand causes you to pay attention to something special is going

  692. on. So, so, so why I'm mean listen,

  693. I'm talking about from new W 1st person he gave us was a global

  694. voice in Carolyn and you go on and you you I I then I was in

  695. there, I was in there and you guys Danny bro Danny, I'm

  696. talking about the the lineage of of of of anointing.

  697. And it wasn't no ad put out. We looking for worship leaders

  698. and musicians. Every psalmist, every musician

  699. is up here because they found home first.

  700. Wait, wait, wait, wait. If you found home first, it

  701. looked like God placed you here for his use.

  702. And when you look around did This is why the the worship team

  703. didn't had all kind of issues at times and we then had late night

  704. conversations because ain't too many platforms.

  705. We're so much oil and so much skill and so much talent, so

  706. many ladies. God's saying something about

  707. you. Troy's God's saying something

  708. about you Troy listen at some point you got to pay attention

  709. and ask God what are you equipping this house for and as

  710. much as your worship team will pray Lord send us MO this send

  711. us MO music and send us. I don't find David.

  712. I don't they built when you go look at David had thousands

  713. hundreds of musicians and singers so that they can have

  714. 24/7 prayer his here it is and worship but but but also on the

  715. judgement day. I will.

  716. Here it is. Here it is.

  717. We've been reading this other part, EJ, but watch now we

  718. backing it up on New Year's. Watch it is.

  719. I will restore David's house that has fallen to pieces.

  720. The same passages in Acts 15. I'll repair the holes in the

  721. roof. That's where we started.

  722. But why is he repairing the holes in the roof?

  723. Because he's restoring David's house.

  724. Not any. We can't walk over there any

  725. kind of way. And I'm not talking about

  726. tonight, period. He said I'll repair the holes in

  727. the roof, replace the broken windows, fix it up like new.

  728. David's people will be strong again.

  729. Now here it is. Just so you know the Gee, let me

  730. just read what he you told me earlier, Lord.

  731. So let me just read what you told me.

  732. Jesus is the door to restore the Davidic mantle.

  733. So we aren't restoring it aside from the restoration was in

  734. Christ and is in Christ. You following me?

  735. There's not we not just some special church.

  736. What I'm telling you is this is his latter day strategy to

  737. combat darkness. We cannot be caught renting from

  738. schools and clubs and and governmental places in the last

  739. days because we will be homeless.

  740. OK, the key to go from visitation to habitation every

  741. Sunday, folks. Lord, we inviting God to visit

  742. us. Why are we inviting him to visit

  743. us? If if you really want, if you

  744. really want him here, you got to, you got to open your mouth

  745. and you got to come here prepared.

  746. He's within you. So where is he coming from?

  747. This is not the Old Testament. You're a New Testament believer.

  748. You are the sanctuary. Here we go.

  749. Keep going. I will place up on his shoulder.

  750. Whose shoulder? That sounds like Isaiah 9.

  751. I will place up on his shoulder. Uh oh.

  752. Isaiah 22. What will he place up on his

  753. shoulder? In nine, we see the government

  754. shall be on his shoulder. Well, well, the government needs

  755. a key Kingdom. Here it is shoulders, the key to

  756. the treasures of David's palace. So you mean there's some,

  757. there's a strategy, there's something to unlock, there's

  758. Davidic mysteries, there's a treasure box waiting for a

  759. people to open and yield their lives to God.

  760. Look what he says. He will open doors that no one

  761. can shut and he will shut doors that no one can open.

  762. That sounds like another scripture Jesus quotes and he

  763. says the power, whatever you bind on earth, I will give you

  764. the keys to heaven and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound

  765. at right. So what he meant here in the Old

  766. Testament, right here he's pointing to a New Testament

  767. people. OK, OK.

  768. I will strike a blow to Him as they nail in a secure place, and

  769. He will be a glorious throne of honor for His Father's house.

  770. Here It is all the glory of His Father's house.

  771. They will fasten to Him, including offspring and

  772. branches. I am the vine, You are the

  773. branches that will trust in Him. Every vessel, every jar and

  774. bowl, both small and great, will be fastened to Him.

  775. So if we going to walk with Jesus, guess what, we got to

  776. walk in divine Davidic design and then that day declares the

  777. Lord Yahweh, commander of the angels army, the Nell here it is

  778. fastened in a secure place will give way and cut off the fall

  779. and all the load hanging. Maybe all the sin that's hanging

  780. on the cross will fall off as well.

  781. And the Lord Yahweh has spoken. Why will they fall off Because

  782. he got up. He dropped it off.

  783. We're a resurrected people. Here we go.

  784. The key to the House of David will be the key to the House of

  785. love Quest International Church from 2025 to Infinity.

  786. Here it is the key to the House of David will be the key to the

  787. House of love. Quest International Church 2025

  788. We will have a greater understanding of what we already

  789. been doing by the Spirit. You are going to see that within

  790. you He has woven a Davidic pattern within.

  791. You want to know why you here Caleb?

  792. You want to know why you here? You want to know why you here

  793. Michael? You want to know why you here

  794. Annabeth? You want to know why you here?

  795. You want to know why the enemy coming for you is because you

  796. have a strategy and a pattern. You have a model home within you

  797. and you actually need other Levites around you.

  798. You need other skilled musicians, You need other

  799. skilled vocalist. He will not bring greatness

  800. together that cannot depend on each other, because to depend on

  801. each other we got to depend on him.

  802. But there is something he is building in this land through

  803. this house, and it is a model home.

  804. It is a pattern of worship. Here it is, here it is, here it

  805. is. Stay focused because we think

  806. because y'all going to be giving me signals.

  807. PT we got to go. Well you, you, here's the word

  808. for next year. Next year will be the year of

  809. the fear of God. Listen to me the essential key

  810. to a year of awe and wonder out of all God has promised us for

  811. the last seven years it has come to this point the way we will

  812. walk in everything he has promised from generations

  877. fear, I'm afraid I'm, I'm afraid of God.

  878. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

  881. stuff, why he got to beg you to tithe, why he got to beg you to

  882. come to church, why you got to beg you to serve.

  883. You might love God. You don't.

  884. You don't Revere them, you might love what he might be able to do

  885. for you, but old boy how he got to beg to get you out of them.

  886. Situations. Here it is the fear of God is a

  901. This is not the the running. This is not God having to look

  902. for you and say, where are you, Adam?

  904. Being afraid of God pulls you away from God.

  905. That's why you ain't coming here.

  906. Fear of God is one of the ways the Holy Spirit manifests.

  907. Keep going. PT Now I'm about to just run off

  915. And you, like you, believe in yourself too much.

  916. You don't believe the Word, and we have paused as a church.

  917. I love God, so we live a life trying to do things that show we

  918. love, he says. Watchfulness against temptation,

  919. timidly shrinking from whatever might offend God.

  920. Like, you know what? That, that that kind of appears

  921. evil. I don't even want to, I don't

  922. even want to come close to offending God.

  923. Like I don't, I don't even want, I don't even want to do it.

  924. And then even have to wonder if God is cool with it.

  925. Not, not not in your own strength.

  926. For it is God who is all the wild effectually at work in you.

  927. Oh, there's that spirit energizing and creating in you

  928. the power and desire. God's not trying to ask you to

  929. conjure up your own strength to do everything He's asking you to

  930. do. He's saying, let me work in you.

  931. You can't do what He asks you to do without Him.

  933. His name is on the line. He wants to will you to I need

  934. the spirit. Somebody say I need the spirit

  935. of the fear of God. Come on, therefore, since here

  936. we go moving on. Therefore, since we have these

  937. great and wonderful promises, since we got all these promises,

  938. beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from everything.

  939. Since we got all these promises, since we got all this word,

  940. since we really believe God is exceedingly, abundantly above

  941. all that we can ask, think, or imagine according to the power,

  942. since we believe that we the head and not the tail, Since we

  943. believe my God shall supply all of my needs.

  944. Of course, since you. But if you believe that, cleanse

  945. yourself from everything that contaminates body and spirit,

  946. completing holiness, living a consecrated life, a life set

  947. apart for God's purpose. In the fear of God, the fear of

  948. the Lord illumines the soul, annihilates evil, weakens the

  949. passions, drives from the soul and makes it pure.

  950. The fear of the Lord is the summit of wisdom.

  951. Where it is not, you will find nothing good.

  952. Where the fear of the Lord is not, you will not find anything

  953. good. Whoever does not have the fear

  954. of God is open to diabolical falls, says Ephraim the Syrian.

  955. Somebody say I need the spirit of the fear of God.

  956. Here it is. Do you see what we've got?

  957. Do you see what we've got? We've got an unshakeable

  958. Kingdom. And do you see how thankful we

  959. must be since it's so unshakeable?

  960. Not only thankful here it is ready, but brimming with worship

  961. deeply. Here it is, reverent before God,

  962. for God is not an indifferent bystander.

  963. Here it is. He's actively cleaning house,

  964. torching all that needs to burn, and he won't quit until it's all

  965. cleansed. God himself is fire.

  966. He's coming for you. I, I just like to put it this

  967. way. Let's just clean up before dad

  968. gets home. Brothers and sisters, can we

  969. siblings, can we just clean up before dad gets home, please?

  970. Dad said he'll be home in, in, in in like about 30 minutes,

  971. guys. OK, let's just clean up before

  972. Dad gets home, OK? Here it is.

  973. Follow me. You call out to God for help,

  974. huh? And he helps, huh?

  975. He's a good father that way. But don't forget, he's also a

  976. responsible father. And he won't let you get by with

  977. sloppy living. Your increase overflow King

  978. tide. Knock me over.

  979. God, Hell. Bless me, OK, But you don't say

  980. it. Don't even got to be that, that

  981. it ain't even got to be that kind of transaction, he said.

  982. You should conduct yourself with true reverence.

  983. Through how long? Just on Sunday, Monday, when I

  984. come, when I pull up in the parking lot, change the music.

  985. Right when I come to church, I'm going to stop cussing.

  986. Oh, true reverence throughout the time of your temporary

  987. residence on the earth, whether long or short, however long it

  988. is, what do you say all the days of your life, you should have

  989. true reverence. Here it is Jude, we all over the

  990. Bible, we just coast to coast in the Bible.

  991. Keep being compassionate to those who still doubt.

  992. Here it is for some of you. So some of you people who who

  993. get caught up in just thinking you going to be everybody's

  994. savior. Here it is and snatch others out

  995. of the fire to save them. Yes, help them, Here it is.

  996. Be merciful over and over to them, here it is.

  997. But always couple your mercy with the fear of God.

  998. Oh, here it is. Be extremely careful to keep

  999. yourself free from the pollutions of the flesh.

  1000. Here it is. You don't have to come down to

  1001. bring people up. Listen, trying to help family

  1002. members that get you out of character.

  1003. You're dealing with folks that's being stubborn and then being

  1004. familiar. No, no, no, no, he said look

  1005. like like call people out. But man, couple that mercy with

  1006. with the fear of God. Don't you ever compromise in the

  1007. name of trying to help somebody find Jesus.

  1008. I need come on, somebody say I need the spirit of fear of God.

  1009. Now here it is not the fear of man, for God did not give me the

  1010. spirit of fear. So he ain't talking about the

  1011. same fear. But if power, love is Salma, he

  1012. says fear. There's No Fear in love.

  1013. Matthew 10 Don't be bluffed into silence by the threats of

  1014. bullies. There's nothing they can do to

  1015. your soul. Talking about these bully

  1016. spirits, these Philistine spirits, these demonic

  1017. oppressive spirits, and even people.

  1018. Your core being save your fear for God.

  1019. You sitting here worried about folks leaving you When?

  1020. When are you worried about being disconnected from God?

  1021. You worried about people not liking you?

  1022. Are you worried about being close to the Lord?

  1023. The spirit of the fear of God, not the spirit of being scared

  1024. of God. What do you mean scared of God?

  1025. And they said to Moses, Hey Moses, you speak to us please,

  1026. and we going to listen to you, but let not God speak to us,

  1027. lest we die. And Moses said to the people,

  1028. fear not, for God has come to prove you, inspect you, so that

  1029. the reverential fear of him may be before you, that you may not

  1030. sin. Oh, the fear of God is maybe the

  1031. maybe not getting off we either. Maybe you.

  1032. You shouldn't be waking up trying not to sin.

  1033. You should be waking up trying to get closer to God.

  1034. And your relationship with God is going to keep you from the

  1035. devil. Love us wrestling with sin,

  1036. trying to stop it on our own. God delivered them for him, but

  1037. they let sin keep them from Him. Afraid of God causes us to

  1038. withdraw. What will he say?

  1039. What will he know? What will he reject?

  1040. What will he punish? The fear of God is the essential

  1041. key that opens the heavens within us, releasing the glory

  1042. of God around us. I'm going to say this one time,

  1043. fear of God is the essential key.

  1044. It's not a essential key. It is the essential key that

  1045. opens the heavens within us, releasing the glory of God

  1046. around us. For all of you who are tempted

  1047. to be afraid of God, let me just ramble on and I'll pick up on

  1048. Sunday. The blessing.

  1049. The fear of God only brings blessings.

  1050. The fear of God only brings glory, OK?

  1051. The reward of humility and reverent and Worshipful fear of

  1052. the Lord is riches in honor in life.

  1053. Somebody say 1. The reverent fear of the Lord

  1054. worshiping, obeying, serving and trusting Him with all field

  1055. respect prolongs one's life, say 2.

  1056. So, so it brings honor to your life.

  1057. And then the fear of God brings long life.

  1058. You want to know why we're in a generation where folks is dying

  1059. too young, no honor, no reverence, not only to God, but

  1060. when you don't fear God, you for sure don't fear any other

  1061. authoritative figures. OK, OK, it says, but the years

  1062. of the wicked will be shortened. Fear of God is the essential key

  1063. to my long life bloodline. The person with the gift of the

  1064. fear of the Lord understands who they are and why they are here

  1065. in relationship to God. In other words, everything they

  1066. are is due to the wonder, the love, grace and perfection of

  1067. God. In other words, a person that

  1068. walks in the fear of God, you will find them constantly.

  1069. You can't. You can't find them without a

  1070. praise Hallelujah. A person with the fog is totally

  1071. dependent on the Lord as a child is to a parent.

  1072. The gift of the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

  1073. Once a person understands who God is and desires to please

  1074. Him, they can begin to understand things from God's

  1075. point of view or have wisdom. Spirit of the Fall comes with

  1076. the greatest health benefits ever.

  1077. Let not your heart envy sinners, but continue in the reverent and

  1078. Worshipful fear of the Lord all the day long, for surely there

  1079. is a latter end, a future and a reward, and your hope and

  1080. expectations shall not be cut off.

  1081. Psalm 25 The secret of the Lord is for those who fear Him.

  1082. I'm having trouble hearing God. As I said before, many people

  1083. want to hear from God but not walk with Him.

  1084. Here it is. And He will make them know His

  1085. covenant. Oh Andrew, the intimacy to

  1086. understand the love of God. See, See, when you understand

  1087. the love of God and you walk intimately with him, you can't

  1088. be talked out of your Christianity because stuff goes

  1089. wrong. You still let you still

  1090. understand the nature of God. So when people come with all

  1091. this foolery unite that ain't even in my God's nature.

  1092. See, a lot of us don't know his nature.

  1093. We just know some scripture somebody told us.

  1094. So you can be talked out of your faith because you don't have

  1095. nature, you don't understand nature and anybody can tell you

  1096. that all the evil has contributed to God's doing.

  1097. We with Proverbs 7. Fear of God is the beginning of

  1098. wisdom. Wow, you mean we can't get God's

  1099. wisdom without the fear? This is skillful and godly

  1100. wisdom. Psalm 128.

  1101. Blessed is everyone who fears, reveres, and worships the Lord,

  1102. who walks in his ways and lives according to his commandments.

  1103. Here it is, For you shall eat the fruit of the labor of your

  1104. hands. Happy, blessed, fortunate,

  1105. enviable shall you be, and it shall be well with you.

  1106. Here it is your wife shall be like a fruitful vine in the

  1107. innermost parts of your house. Here it is you fear in the Lord.

  1108. Your children shall be like a olive plants round about your

  1109. table. It keeps going.

  1110. Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who reverently and

  1111. worshipfully fears the Lord. Praise the Lord, Hallelujah,

  1112. blessed fortune and prosperous in favor by God is the man or

  1113. woman who fears the Lord, who delights greatly in His

  1114. commandments. You need another one, His

  1115. descendants. Will be mighty on earth.

  1116. Oh, the man and woman that fears the Lord.

  1117. It's generational fruit, the generation of the upright.

  1118. Will be blessed wealth. And riches are in his house and

  1119. his righteousness endures forever.

  1120. Oh you mean the way I live in righteousness, the choices I

  1121. make and the walk that I have with God?

  1126. Oh my God. His heart is uphill.

  1127. He will not fear while he looks. At his enemies some of y'all got

  1128. to go all the way across the other.

  1129. Side of the mall When you see somebody, you.

  1211. God's not playing. I don't think he ever has.

  1212. Been. But some of you are now leeching

  1213. off of grace and the Bible. Clearly says don't take God's

  1214. grace in vain. There's a call on your life and

  1215. you know it. This is the time to take steps.

  1216. You're a long time believer. You and this lukewarm state.

  1217. Of mind and life. It's the time to go forward if

  1219. church. Hopper, I'm not asking you to

  1220. stay here. Find you a church.

  1221. This is. Not the time to play.

  1222. OK, get rooted in God's house. We are about to step into times

  1223. where people are going to be running to the altar in houses

  1224. like this, where they're equipped and ready to handle any

  1225. type of disruption, because there is going to be.

  1226. Such a glory. That is going to cause people to

  1227. rush the altar for freedom. Hallelujah.

  1228. And I would say love question you're ready for sons and.

  1229. Daughters to come home, however, whenever, at any moment.

  1230. Why did Solomon get the? Job to build the house.

  1231. Because God wanted a man that represented peace to build the

  1232. house. I can't.

  1233. Express it enough this building. Is for the Lord.

  1234. It's not for love quest to just have a place to hang out.

  1235. I will tell you now when we dedicate that building, it is

  1236. holy ground. I will tell you.

  1237. That leadership. Will hold whoever, whenever,

  1238. whatever accountable to hold the standard of what it looks like

  1239. to have a holy house. For God.

  1240. And I know this generation is. Not used you used to it, I would

  1241. grew up. In a time where I think some in

  1242. some ways it went too far. But what I do know is there was

  1243. a reverence and that reverence. Is lost.

  1244. I I I couldn't. I couldn't walk in church with a

  1245. hat on. I'm not wear your hat like this

  1246. is what I'm saying Like those aren't essentials.

  1247. So we were trip we but but at. The same time we I.

  1248. Couldn't wear a hat. Then there was choir members

  1249. sleeping with each other. You know what I'm saying?

  1250. Essentials. So you might as well just keep.

  1251. Your hat on. You get what I'm saying?

  1252. But there. Is a reverence that is.

  1253. So stop talking revival if you don't want to lay nothing down,

  1254. and I will tell you now. We're not about filling seats.

  1255. Here so if you don't want accountability.

  1256. You don't want presents you don't want to.

  1257. Go after God with us. You don't want to build the

  1258. House of God. Look, let me tell you, this is

  1259. the wrong house to be in. What we're about here is we are

  1260. really going to go after the Lord.

  1271. You guys, it is pathetic as a church how we represent Jesus

  1272. Christ, the Lord of our life, our Savior, the stuff we

  1273. complain about and the stuff that that we got to address.

  1274. We just meant sometime I look out my window on Sunday and I'm
