  27. What did you tell somebody Jesus is that love quest?

  28. That ain't viral. I asked you.

  29. If Jesus am here, where is he? And then if you think he ain't

  30. here, then then how you know, he is where you think he is.

  31. After some days, it was rumored about that.

  32. He was in the house. I just had a meeting with his

  33. young Pastor. He's part of very prominent

  34. church here locally. And then by God's grace, they

  35. just stumbled on planting a church.

  36. A church was Pastor was looking to retire.

  37. And they wanted to hand the church over.

  38. It was about 30 older people in the church.

  39. So the church was kind of on its ended.

  40. He just happened to be. Available and within a month's

  41. time. He's now took over a church and

  42. brought the people that he was kind of leading what.

  43. He's part of very, very, very, very, very very, very, very,

  44. very, very, very prominent church here in British Columbia,

  45. we're just meeting a few minutes ago, Hand.

  46. From the outside looking in. He says, man, don't you guys

  47. stop doing what you doing, there's nothing like it.

  48. He said I'm extremely encouraged by what you guys doing.

  49. Because not many people are willing to take the risk.

  50. To be them. He wants to come, he's learning

  51. from us. And it is a part of him that

  52. have to rip away from where he was, because his Charisma was

  53. not allowed to be released. He wanted to be a part.

  54. He had five fold Ministry Revelation at him and where he

  55. was, it was just teacher. He also said, his wife had a

  56. disease and one day they were praying and reading the Bible

  57. and they read about a woman that God healed and she got angry and

  58. said, why not me? It's one thing to teach about

  59. someone being healed. It's another thing to activate,

  60. The now move of God. It's a reason I mention that is

  61. because as people from Love quest, the worst thing you could

  62. do is get too familiar with the gift.

  63. You are part of Because there's people I will never admit man.

  64. I will never ever ever let anybody get the blessing that

  65. I'm supposed to have especially if they don't live here.

  66. I tell my kids all the time and I tell God while I'm living I'm

  67. getting every blessing. I'm not handing nothing to my

  68. kids. When I say I'm not handing

  69. nothing to my kids. I'm setting them up but I'm not

  70. passing on nothing to them that I was supposed to get.

  71. No, even when I'm on the ball court malachite not gonna

  72. out-hustle and play me. I know it BB it would be

  73. accepted because he the young one.

  75. almost 20 years older than this brother.

  76. You're not about to outplay me as long as I'm lacing them up.

  77. I'm not giving out freebies, I'm aware of the ability.

  78. I still have listened. I pull my little hamstring.

  93. Right pulling all that together. I got me some some, some some

  94. Mount pulling it. All together.

  95. There is not even a thought. In my mind, I'm not playing It's

  96. not even a thought. In my mind either, I'm not.

  97. I'm just one trick that I gots to be healed.

  98. I gots to be better. When I'm down here on my knees.

  99. This is how I fight. I'm not thinking about my

  100. hamstring. Oh, it hurt.

  101. Yes, but where I'm going to get it healed in this posture.

  102. Right? And I think we contemplate way

  103. too much for we throw ourselves at the altar, what does that

  104. have to do with anything? Women.

  105. There's nothing, you will try to achieve that.

  106. You can't that you're not supposed to throw your entire

  107. self at. Here's another thing.

  108. He said, he said I was looking at you guys page and I saw you

  109. guys post something about Soul winning.

  110. He said, please keep that up. Nobody talking about that.

  111. He said you guys are onto something.

  112. Oh man. See what I don't want is people

  113. to be like the Pharisees who killed the savior.

  114. They were to actually waiting for because they couldn't see.

  115. He was present. And I'm just trying to always

  116. tell y'all if you was really in Jesus presence.

  117. How would you act like be honest, if Jesus walked through

  118. those doors. Like, let's take our mind there.

  119. Let's act like he ain't here. If Jesus walked through those

  120. doors. However, you see him long hair,

  121. blonde, whatever you. He is if he walked through them

  122. doors. What would you do?

  123. Honestly, what would you do if Jesus walked in the room?

  124. Anybody talk to anybody? Huh.

  125. Huh? You would run to him if he

  126. walked in the room. Okay, that's how it is, huh?

  127. You would be wide-eyed and mystified You'll be too stuck to

  128. speak. You would be too stunned to

  129. speak saying you would be speechless.

  130. What about you Vanessa? Tickle tickle.

  131. Excited. You be crying.

  132. What about ujt? You'll give him the biggest hug.

  133. Huh, you be on your knees. Would you like tell him?

  134. Thank you or Huh. You skip everything.

  135. You would ask everything if you would ask everything.

  136. All right, good luck. Hey man.

  137. Anybody else you jumping over everybody?

  138. That's what I'm talking about. That's how it was.

  139. That's how it was when the guy laying at the pool.

  140. Shit, everybody kept jumping over them when the pool startup,

  141. right? All right, another question.

  142. What stops you from that reaction today?

  143. Because what you're just telling me is that who Jesus Is In This

  144. Moment. He's not that he's somewhere

  145. else. Right.

  146. So you're saying, you need that physical.

  147. You need a, you need a man. You like he needs something

  148. physical to walk in here, right? So, here's the, here's the

  149. thing. If you don't notice him, now,

  150. you wouldn't even notice him if he walked in a body.

  151. Right? If you understand who killed

  152. him, it was people who read he was coming, but they didn't

  153. notice him because they thought he was coming in, Royal clothes,

  154. and he came in on a donkey. He came in and swaddling

  155. clothes. He came in in a Manger.

  156. So might I challenge you that you don't even know who you

  157. looking for. Because he's actually here.

  158. And he ain't no more here now than he would be if he walked

  159. in, you ready for this? He ain't no more here now than

  160. when he shows up to get his church.

  161. It's just the day, he show up to get his church.

  162. He's putting a finality to it and we going to go back with him

  163. but he is here right now like he's here right now.

  164. He can't get no mo here. So it's what you're saying?

  165. What we're saying when we say he's, he you're saying so who's

  166. the Jesus in you then? How do we say, wow, how we be

  167. wide-eyed? How do we be speech speechless?

  168. How do you keep running to the altar?

  169. Talk to me. I think I'm part of the church's

  170. job is we heighten the awareness that he's alive. so, if we still

  171. looking for him, If we ain't found it, then how can we invite

  172. them? Because he told them this in the

  173. Bible, in Matthew 12. I think he says, what are you

  174. looking for the kingdom for it's within you.

  175. So, when I'm telling you, you're great, it's not about feeling

  176. great. It's about knowing greatness is

  177. in you. Now you partnering with the

  178. greatness in you but he's here. Guess this cool thing about him.

  179. He's here when it's cold. He's here when it's hot.

  180. He's here. Chaka Khan.

  181. And this is where our faith needs to increase.

  182. The woman with the issue of blood did not experience his

  183. presence until she Drew to his presence.

  184. He said, come unto me all you that are heavy laden and eat you

  185. noticing. If you resist the enemy and draw

  186. near to me, it's all invitations for you to come but our posture

  187. is we're waiting for him to walk in the room.

  188. So my my question to you is if you saved Then, who did you

  189. bring with you if he ain't here yet?

  190. This is what meditators tried. This is what meditation and

  191. meditators try to get us to do is be in the moment.

  192. He is present. He is here, right?

  193. Let me tell you something. I came out here, I came from the

  194. car into the room changed really quick.

  195. I came straight out here while straight on the platform.

  196. And then how do we get to Arnie's?

  197. How does pastor ticket to his knees?

  198. Is it? Because the father saw Jesus, Is

  199. it cuz he was sitting here on a big kingly chair with his long

  200. hair. How did I get there?

  201. How did we get here? How do we get so stirred up?

  202. How we get that? I want to touch him and I want

  203. him to touch me and that's what the woman with the issue of

  204. blood. Says, if I could just touch him,

  205. what's in him? Will touch me.

  206. She did say, somebody please send Jesus to my house.

  207. She said, if I could just Touch the Hem of His Garment, I will

  208. be made healed and made whole because there's something on him

  209. that I have to get to. And so was simply has to happen.

  210. Is we have to go towards him. Father, we bless you.

  211. That that's not me. Anointed.

  212. That's not me. Being compelled by the Holy

  213. Ghost. That's me being hungry.

  214. Lord, I love you. It's no different than a

  215. football. Team in the locker room.

  216. Getting ready to pump, they self up to come out, they work

  217. themselves up to do some absolutely crazy and run into

  218. each other. And then before, you know it,

  219. when you're stirring yourself up and you take your mind off of

  220. stuff, you take your mind, off a cold, you take your mind off of

  221. back hurt before, you know it, I'm on my knees are like, oh, I

  222. forgot my hamstring is injured. So, do I go back to But I'm down

  223. here. So who has Authority my

  224. hamstring or what I'm after? See you think you want you

  225. healing and transformation takes?

  226. Intentionality, not the Holy Ghost.

  227. Holy Ghost, helps you. But he says after you've done

  228. all you can do, then you can sit there and stand and be and be

  229. expect a and saying God where you at?

  230. Cause I've done everything, the one with the issue of blood says

  231. man on his spent everything but but it's one more thing.

  232. I really didn't get desperate after and that's Jesus.

  233. I'm about to risk my life. You thought last Wednesday was

  234. last Wednesday, but God's calling.

  235. This To that posture. I'm feeling so strong and

  236. something shifted in me last week.

  237. I want Jesus so bad without him. I'm a mess.

  238. And that's the reality. That drives me is that I can't

  239. be the husband on call to be. Without him driving.

  240. I can't be the pastor. I can't be the father without

  241. him driving. There is a desperation that is

  242. required in this season. But that scripture back up,

  243. please, thank you. And so many people gather

  244. together, so many people gathered together, so many

  245. people gather together there that they there was no longer

  246. room for them, not even around the door.

  247. So if you get a picture, Jesus is in the house and there's no

  248. room to get in the house where Jesus Jesus is not even around

  249. the door and He was discussing the word.

  250. Wherever Jesus was was the word and wherever the word was, there

  251. was Jesus. If you understand that, that's

  252. why when we go in and we speak in the word all who I'm

  253. releasing it the atmosphere, I don't need Jesus.

  254. A physical man to walk through the door.

  255. Jesus himself is in my mouth. You won't Jesus start speaking

  256. the word you want? Jesus, start confessing the

  257. worst are singing the word start seeing the word work.

  258. Start believing the word start confessing the word.

  259. Start listening to the word. You want more Jesus, speak more

  260. word. Then they came bringing a

  261. paralytic to him. Who had been picked up?

  262. And was being carried by four men.

  263. Remember, we talked about fighting a passion to fight.

  264. There was a paralyzed, man. Carried by remember, one of at

  265. least my prayer was Lord, I need some Fighters around me. carried

  266. by, Here here. Here's a truth right here.

  267. Don't worry about how it's going to happen, but there is a high

  268. chance that your team Love quest.

  269. Friday. We'll have to play with four

  270. men. Do the circumstances.

  271. Possibly. Maybe start off with for maybe

  272. one running late, we won't know till Thursday night.

  273. I've been back and forth talking to JT, do you know, it's not one

  274. bone in me and I'm not just talking Faith right now.

  275. It's not one bone at me. I'm actually excited at the

  276. opportunity. To win with four people.

  277. How can you do that easy? You can play a 22 zone.

  278. It's only one ball is only one basket guard.

  279. The basket, put pressure on the ball, make a make them a jump

  280. shooting team. If they're jump shooting team

  281. we're gonna get rebounds long rebounds and then we get a

  282. chance to score. You only can double team.

  283. One person took in that. Still makes it somebody else.

  284. I'll go to war with Shaq I'll go to the board with off.

  285. They all go to war with JT their strategy.

  286. So, the less me Men that I have, the more strategy I need.

  287. Right. But there's also something in

  288. me. Understand fighting is a sport.

  289. So what David did collected Goliath was a sport.

  290. It was a skill. And y'all think I'm playing?

  291. This whole basketball thing is writing a story.

  292. At least for me. I'm told some leaders, the other

  293. day. If we play four on five, and

  294. when betting on one leader, come to me, complain about nothing.

  295. Don't come complaining, about nothing.

  296. But then some people out there, they'll be like, man, we can we

  297. get somebody, can we cancel the game?

  298. Can we know if the if the game gets snowed in and they cancel

  299. the game, even at the amen. Praise God.

  300. But you think I'm going? Do you think I got time to go

  301. into Friday? Thinking about a handicap?

  302. Guess who the fifth man is Y'all.

  303. So then y'all gotta cheer more Now, 305 might be a different

  304. story, but I still would have the same confidence, but 405 is

  305. a whole nother ball game. For man.

  306. Next. And when they could not get him

  307. to a place. In front of Jesus, because of

  308. the crowd, they dug through the roof above him.

  309. And when they have scooped out and opening, they let down the

  310. thickly padded, quilt, or mat upon which the paralyzed man

  311. lay. Do you know how heavy that guy

  312. was? Do you know what it took?

  313. I don't care how short the roof was. if you're going to learn

  314. how to fight, you have to get rid of excuses, This man is

  315. paralyzed. But he is surrounded with people

  316. that got legs. Is why it's not safe to hang out

  317. with people as paralyzed as you. and when Jesus saw their, what

  318. faith, Their confidence in God through him.

  319. He said to the paralyzed, man. Son, your sins are forgiven and

  320. put away. That is the penalty is remitted,

  321. the sense of guilt removed and you are made of right.

  322. So he didn't say you was healed. He said what's going on inside

  323. of you? Is a part of your disease.

  324. Do you feel condemned as you're saying, weighing you down?

  325. What does he say? Your guilt has been removed?

  326. Praise God for myself. If you want to be a winner, you

  327. have to forget the last play. Okay.

  328. Okay. Okay.

  329. If you want to be a winner, you have to forget your age.

  330. Young or older. As long as you're living your

  331. call to Win It. All right.

  332. A point of showing you this is, I just I just I feel like you

  333. need to get the right people around you in this season.

  334. You need to get the right people around you in this season and do

  335. not feel bad. For investing.

  336. In carriers. Do not be feel bad for giving

  337. your ear more to people, that will speak, highly the highest

  338. form of Who You Are. Yeah, the true fight is to let

  339. the Lord fight your battles. Pick up there.

  340. And will land somewhere. The true fight is to let the

  341. Lord fight your battles. Second chronicles 20 says, the

  342. battle is not what yours? What we learned Sunday is that,

  343. although, the battle is the Lord's, we're still required to

  344. show up. Is anybody with me or you

  345. frozen? Amen.

  346. The battle is not yours, but it is your job to do.

  347. What? I'll say.

  348. It one more time. The battle is not yours, but it

  349. is your job to do. What?

  350. Man, that's half the battle that that time.

  351. You don't want to get the church at you struggling to get out the

  352. bed or the gym, you're struggling to go to the gym and

  353. every as the longer you stay laying on your mat, the more

  354. excuses, we fine. So, I gotta show up, I gotta

  355. show up. He says, you shall not need to

  356. fight but you need to what show up.

  357. Man, I'm trying to help somebody here.

  358. You shall not need to fight, but you shall what show up?

  359. This is all he said. I'm going to fight for you but

  360. you still need to show up. You don't need to fight but I

  361. but I need you to what show up. So what's the theme Here?

  362. No, the thing here is the battle is within you get ain't the

  363. enemy. That's your call to defeat.

  364. Because the victory is in showing up and so at the end of

  365. me that the enemy wants to stop me from doing, he's not trying

  366. to do. If he cannot defeat me when I

  367. show up because where I'm called the show of, that's where the

  368. person who is going to fight. My battles, is if I show up

  369. where I'm called to go, then the provision is there, some of

  370. y'all trying to get money. Money for a place.

  371. God told you to leave. The money is where he told you

  372. to what show up. he is not funding a relationship, you

  373. showed up to and he told you to show out at He said, it's over,

  374. he said walk away. He said enough is enough.

  375. No, he didn't say, I'll follow you.

  376. He said, follow me. He's not changing that he said

  377. follow me. So so the battle is he is I

  378. gotta show up. He said, I don't need to fight

  379. but I need to fight to show up. And that's what the enemy wants

  380. you to do. It's not show up.

  381. And I love this, he said, take your position, you are called to

  382. the battle line. There's no victory in hiding.

  383. There's no victory in the cave. The only victory in the cave is

  384. that you left it? You shall not need to fight.

  385. Take your positions, stand still.

  386. That's it, that's, that's hard to do when somebody flinching at

  387. you all the time. You're the devil, go flinching

  388. at you, right? He flinching at you.

  389. He like, uh, and he get you to Blink, you know, they'll staring

  390. contest where you shirt, who can who can keep the Open Eyes, the

  391. longest. This is the hardest thing to do

  392. is stand still. What I'm saying is when you stay

  393. faithful and what God is doing, that's the posture of staying

  394. still Staying still, don't mean be lazy.

  395. Don't do nothing. Staying still me and keep on

  396. praying. Keep showing up.

  397. That's staying. Still keeps showing up.

  398. Keep so and keep giving, keep declaring, keep loving, keep

  399. forgiving, keep walking. Keep standing, keep running.

  400. Keep going to the gym. Keep doing squats.

  401. Keep throwing blows. And see the delivered.

  402. See, see, It is not your job to bring forth Victory, it's your

  403. job to observe victory. A thousand may fall by my side

  404. 10,000 at my right hand, what'd he say?

  405. But you bout to be nothing but a spectator.

  406. Oh, oh, here's a little little thing at the bottom.

  407. This, why mindset need to shift? Maybe it's hard for some of us

  408. to fight because we don't know this last line.

  409. The Lord is with me. Everywhere that I go.

  410. The Lord is with me. There's nothing, I can't face.

  411. The storm made the disciples forget.

  412. Oh they have the savior in the boat.

  413. So, whatever you going through, don't forget.

  414. The Lord is with me. Even if I mess up the Lord is

  415. with me, even when they don't like me, the Lord is with me.

  416. Even when I turn in my resume and 150, people got way more

  417. qualifications to me, guess what?

  418. But what's on that resume? The Lord is with me, right?

  419. I'll take my one year experience and the Lord.

  420. And I might get the position over your 15 years of

  421. experience. For the Lord is with me.

  422. Matter if I'm in a pandemic it don't matter if a disease

  423. breakout guess what? The Lord is with me.

  424. You don't matter. If you don't believe in me, it

  425. don't matter if you misunderstand me, guess what the

  426. Lord is with me? And it's only a matter of time

  427. where he goes to show you that he is with me.

  428. Eyes have not seen ears. Have not heard.

  429. Neither has it entered the heart of man what God has in store for

  430. them that love him according to his purpose.

  431. Has say the Lord is with me. Lord is with me.

  432. That's your make. You put your shoulders back,

  433. poke your chest out and put your head up.

  434. Pull them covers from over your head and realize the Lord is

  435. with me. The king is with me.

  436. Same God, that was in the pit. The pit didn't make Jesus not be

  437. with Joseph. He was in the Lion's Den.

  438. He was in the fiery furnace. He was in the pitch, he was in

  439. the Shipwreck. He was with you in it all.

  440. Lord is with me. And he's talked him.

  441. Another Parable Heavens Kingdom can be compared to a farmer who

  442. planted good seed in his field. When everyone was asleep and

  443. enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat and ran away

  444. when the wheat sprouted and bore grain.

  445. Then the weeds also appeared. So the farmers Hired Hands came

  446. to him and said, sir, wasn't that good seed that you sold in

  447. the field? I just want to remind a few

  448. people here today. When God planted you in this

  449. earth, it was good. Now you see some of you guys

  450. mind went to the Earth was good? No, no.

  451. When he planted you in the earth, you was good.

  452. Okay. We don't make sure you don't

  453. miss this. They said, man, the enemy came

  454. in and sold something in there and that don't look like

  455. something we put in there. and I know for a fact, Then what we

  456. sold. In the field, it was good.

  457. I don't know how my life has turned out up to this point, but

  458. I know before I was formed in my mama's womb, I was declared good

  459. A bit, maybe you don't see yourself, On the sixth day.

  460. When he saw everything and he decreed, it was good.

  461. Maybe you think you was born in 1980, something, or 70, summer,

  462. 60, some are 50. Some, maybe you don't realize.

  463. In in Genesis, he was talking about you.

  464. Yeah. Genesis 1:26 328, maybe you

    Genesis 1:26

  465. didn't realize when he blessed the Earth and he called it good

  466. and he said now go Mavs don't have dominion to do it.

  467. Maybe you don't see that was you you thought he was talking about

  468. Adam and Eve, huh? But not even Adam and Eve was

  469. born all you. You should go back to Genesis

    Genesis 1:26–28

  470. 1:26 through 28, you are a spirit and you possess a soul

  471. and you live in a body. So who he was talking to in

  472. Genesis 1:26 through 28, was anybody?

    Genesis 1:26–28

  473. That is Spirit I don't know what you thought.

  474. Maybe you thought you was this right here.

  475. So when you die is over for you, nah, maybe that's you.

  476. But for me I see in Genesis 1:26, he made everything then he

    Genesis 1:26

  477. said but man on got nobody to rule it.

  478. Oh, let me make man in my image. And he said, and they shall have

  479. dominion over the fifth, right? And he says, and he blessed the

  480. Earth and then the Earth that he blessed, guess what?

  481. He formed man out of he didn't form until it was blessed.

  482. I'm trying to help somebody. I'm trying to help somebody I'm

  483. trying to. You can look at that, all kind

  484. of ways but your career may have not been formed yet because

  485. here's a blessing that you about to walk into before you get to

  486. the top or before you get your wife or even you get your

  487. husband, you wondering why you going?

  488. You're going through a cultivation season because

  489. wherever he called you to show up, you showing up blessed.

  490. You're not going to next to get blessed you going into next

  491. blast. He say, he say he's he blessed

  492. it then he made me, I don't know what you think you made out of,

  493. but guess what? That's why the funeral you not

  494. going to hear him say this, when you die, but this, what they're

  495. going to say, ashes to ashes dust to dust leaving a body bag,

  496. never, because that's just a little ride, that's a historic.

  497. That's a, that's a poem. It's in Revelations.

  498. Chapter 33. Now, let me stop lying to y'all.

  499. So you go back to any grave. And you can see.

  500. It go right back. Two.

  501. So you can't be like what the first people was made out of the

  502. dirt. I think about that.

  503. You ever see someone cremated? You're going.

  504. No, you don't pick up caskets and all that say, you don't do

  505. that stuff. But I'm just saying like it

  506. goes, right? They just made this statue of

  507. the first first. Nipsey Hussle, clay figure, I

  508. forget what it's called, huh? Huh.

  509. Wax figure if you see that thing, you can't tell me.

  510. Nikki hustling a lot. I'm talking about from his skin

  511. to the tattoos jewelry. The hair.

  512. They put in the hair, one by one.

  513. They put his braids in and he is standing there.

  514. Like, when you die? This body is going right back.

  515. You who you really are the one he breathed into the clay.

  516. That's you. He breathed himself into this

  517. clay. He has no need for this.

  518. You ever been born? Okay.

  519. Okay, I don't know. I know and I could be ignorant

  520. right now, whatever. But like how how we how we alive

  521. and breathing in water and how we doing that?

  522. How we doing that? And then when we come out the

  523. shock of oxygen on this side of the Earth, And I even, I don't

  524. know, maybe my, this was my experience watching my kids come

  525. into the Earth. But I saw God breathing to

  526. Malachi Malia's and Mike has no nostrils when they came out the

  527. womb. And they start crying.

  528. How you think? What you think inside of you?

  529. This is why I praise him. This is why he's, you're

  530. praising. Everyday, you wake up?

  531. You breathing, he's sharing his life with you.

  532. And so when we give it back he gives it back and it's just

  533. beautiful cycle of life that's happening.

  534. But I want you to know that you were created out of blessed

  535. period. You was Born Blessed.

  536. You woke up blessed. You don't need nothing at it to

  537. you to be blessed. Hurry.

  538. Oh, where did all these weeds come from?

  539. He answered. This has to be the work of an

  540. enemy. You were born pure.

  541. Where did all these weeds come in your mind?

  542. Where did all this doubt come from?

  543. But all these insecurities come from.

  544. Where's all this? Second-guessing yourself?

  545. Come from. They asked him.

  546. Do you want us to go and gather up all the weeds?

  547. Listen to this answer? No, he said, if you pull out the

  548. weeds, you might uproot the wheat at the same time.

  549. So what he's saying is, is some of you were here, some of you

  550. weren't, but there was a Sunday, we really drew the line between

  551. this church and the spirit of Jezebel Okay, I don't care how

  552. people see it. I've no the battle we fought for

  553. a couple years, but there came a point where he said leave.

  554. The leave the weeds in. Here's one thing, you have to

  555. know you need the persecution. You need the opposition.

  556. And so you can't run from any opposition, you're dealing with

  557. right now. You can't.

  558. You have to let things grow around you.

  559. And then there's a time to pull them.

  560. What I will tell you, this is the season.

  561. We're let's, let's read this real quick.

  562. No, he said, if you pull the weeds, you might uproot the

  563. wheat to the same time. Let them both grow together

  564. until the Harvest. So what did we what are we

  565. telling you? It's harvest time, right?

  566. We're saying is Is Harvest Time. This is why we have to learn how

  567. to fight because there are some things that are entangled in

  568. what's supposed to be our the blessing is being choked out and

  569. if we don't hurry, it's like the umbilical cord.

  570. If it stays around the baby's day, like there's a time.

  571. Once it's time to give birth to baby.

  572. Can't stay in there that long. It's birth, is another word for

  573. Harvest time. It's birthing time.

  574. If you he says let them both grow together until the Harvest

  575. at that time. Say at that time.

  576. Come on one time. Say at that time.

  577. I'll tell my Harvesters to gather the weeds first.

  578. So we said it's harvest time and we think our family members just

  579. got we think that bucket list just gonna come and you think

  580. because the person in the bucket list came to church the battles

  581. over. Hey look at what he say, let

  582. them both grow together. He said I'll tell the Harvesters

  583. and then first and tie them all in bundles to be burned.

  584. This is a fight it's time to take before structures off.

  585. It's time to take. What?

  586. He, what are you doing? What do you call him?

  587. The the scaffolding off. So you can see how strong you

  588. really are. It's time to uproot.

  589. Just perverted thoughts. It's time to purge around you.

  590. It's all we got is saying there was a season where there was a

  591. Grace to have the weeds around you but now it's time to take

  592. them time up. Then they will harvest the wheat

  593. and put it into I looked him over and roast need my I think

  594. we'll stop here. Look them over and Rose up

  595. Nehemiah for it said to the Nobles and officials the other

  596. people do not be afraid of the enemy earnestly.

  597. Remember, do not be afraid of the enemy, do not be a receipt.

  598. David, who is this uncircumcised philistine?

  599. We see the lame man and he had four people around him.

  600. And he said no we're not going to allow the crowded doors, the

  601. crowded, porches. And the crowded room.

  602. Stop us from getting our victory.

  603. I looked him over and Rose up and said to the Nobles, and

  604. officials other people do. Not be afraid of them eternally.

  605. Remember the Lord, and imprint him on your minds.

  606. It's amazing. This theme of when going in the

  607. battle, remember the Lord. Great.

  608. And terrible. And take from his courage, fight

  609. for your brethren, your son's, your daughters, your wives, and

  610. your homes. And when you are when our

  611. enemies heard that, their plot was known to us and that God

  612. have frustrated their purpose. Don't Preach to myself for five

  613. minutes. Is that okay?

  614. Came a time where I realized it. The my father is so good.

  615. One way, he fights for me is to whisper in my ear and exposed to

  616. enemy tactics. The hardest part of fighting the

  617. enemy is because you didn't know where the blows was coming from.

  618. You didn't know what was going on.

  619. You was confuse you as in the dark, it was cloudy.

  620. But then there came a time where it says and when our enemies

  621. heard that their plot was known to us and that God have

  622. frustrated their purpose. God frustrated, my enemy's

  623. purpose. We all return to the wall, we

  624. all return to the work. We was called to everyone to his

  625. work. Everyone played their part, it's

  626. Harvest Time. So what he's saying is there has

  627. to come a point where you understand, but I want you to

  628. see how the Lord fought the Battle, the end the Lord

  629. frustrated their purpose. so, I have to go back to the wall,

  630. knowing, my enemy is defeated, So I can do the work, I don't

  631. have time to keep looking over my shoulders worrying about

  632. persecution and from that time forth, half of my servants work

  633. at the tasks and the other half held the spears.

  634. So I need people on my squad that can build in fight.

  635. So I need a little Hood around me.

  636. It's why I love my mama. If she watching, I love you, my

  637. mama. My Mama love.

  638. Everybody hugging all over my mom.

  639. Be watching and I'll hop in this car.

  640. My mom said baby watch out for her.

  641. Oh, who is that? That had on the keep, your eye

  642. on them. Make sure somebody always around

  643. you when you talking to that person, I love it.

  644. You gotta have some folks that discern through Hood lenses

  645. sometimes Right, that that's just smell, right?

  646. It's like I've been in the streets, you know the homie

  647. that's like a something about to happen.

  648. Let's go in the house that wasn't a holy ghost.

  649. That was just some Hood sense. It was just like something don't

  650. feel right. They moving different tonight.

  651. We gonna go in the house, right? He said he had some people that

  652. was building, but he also had some people that was fight know

  653. who you called to build with and who you called to fight with.

  654. Not time for half of my servants worked and the other half held

  655. the spears Shields bows and coats of mail and the leader,

  656. stood behind all the house of Judah, those who built the wall

  657. and those Who Bore burdens loaded themselves.

  658. So that everyone worked with one hand.

  659. I love this, those who build the wall and those Who Bore burdens

  660. those who built and bore Burton's.

  661. Those who built and was willing to carry the burden with you.

  662. So that everyone worked with one hand.

  663. And they held a weapon with the other hand.

  664. This is Harvest Time. Here's a picture of harvest

  665. time. You going to have to work and

  666. build. As much as we want to say God,

  667. which one do you call in a stew in this season?

  668. You call to build, and you called the fight.

  669. And every Builder had his sword. Her.

  670. I don't know who this is for but some of you have been tempted to

  671. stop building. Because the fight has been too

  672. hard, the Lord says you're called and anointed for both.

  673. And he who sounded the trumpet was at my side.

  674. I need to keep worshippers around me.

  675. That's it. That's all.

  676. Lord warm us up tonight. Hallelujah.

  677. Father, thank you. Thank you, Jesus.

  678. Elder John, where's the scripture?

  679. Watch it. Watch him, pray, want you.

  680. Can you put up Matthew 26:39? Thank you or eat this summer?

    Matthew 26:39

  681. Pray out. Is time.

  682. Jesus is on his way to the Cross about to be betrayed.

  683. He asked his he asked his his voice.

  684. Can you just pray for me? He came back.

  685. And he found them sleep. On the battlefield.

  686. Going a little farther. He threw himself upon the ground

  687. on his face and prayed saying where did he throw his self?

  688. Wait a minute. I want to skip over that.

  689. How what is the posture Jesus was praying?

  690. She's probably a worse ground in this rub.

  691. Probably dirty. Huh?

  692. He was in the desert. Praise saying my father, if it

  693. is possible. Let this cup pass away from me.

  694. Nevertheless, not what I want. But what you want?

  695. Next verse. And then after he came to the

  696. disciples and found them sleep, so many times you see, Jesus

  697. fighting And his disciples sleeping or distracted.

  698. And he said to Peter, what are you?

  699. So utterly unable to stay awake. And keep watch with me for one

  700. hour. All of you must keep awake.

  701. Give strict attention, be cautious.

  702. You ready for this last word active?

  703. And watch and pray that you may not come into temptation, you

  704. ready for this? The spirit indeed is willing but

  705. the flesh is weak. Again, a second time he went

  706. away and prayed my father. Do you see how many times Jesus

  707. tried to pass up yoga, and he said, but I'll take it for them.

  708. For their eyes were way down with sleep.

  709. So then you can go back to when they said Jesus where you get

  710. food from. He says sir don't y'all see as

  711. harvest time? so, if I come off a little, go

  712. back to 42 if I come off a little like, pushy urgent

  713. challenging In this next season. If I haven't been already.

  714. You just gonna have to forgive me in advance because I don't

  715. know about you, but I can never have a call on my life and

  716. sleep. Never, I can never have an

  717. anointing and not release it. I don't know about you but you

  718. are either fulfilling the plan of Jesus on your life, or you or

  719. sleep. There's no in between.

  720. So I'm challenging everybody and sometimes challenging is it's

  721. very unpopular. But you also find out people

  722. that want to grow are grateful for being challenged.

  723. I'm challenging every. Last one of you To ask yourself.

  724. What do you come to the house of God for?

  725. What are you looking for? What do you need?

  726. And learn how to place a demand on your time.

  727. I don't know about you, but it's a very serious serious serious

  728. time that we're living in And there's a lot of people, we got

  729. a text, I'll leave it at this, we got a text or somebody in

  730. this church right now. They got a text and they shared

  731. it with me and said, pastor how do I respond?

  732. It was a young lady who was here.

  733. Who got pulled away and know, this might offend some people

  734. but got pulled away by some people who was here wolves and

  735. sheep clothing. And now those people that pulled

  736. her away, no longer even live here and this person is called

  737. to ask a question. Will God be mad if I killed

  738. myself? there's people that you see

  739. every single week, that there's a high risk, that's the some

  740. wolf, some deception, some will pull them away.

  741. Convincing them that something's better or something's wrong with

  742. here. And only to leave them stranded

  743. out there to only then question. Should I even still live?

  744. When that person came here and experienced Deliverance that

  745. they didn't have before, not understanding the enemy is

  746. coming seven times stronger. This is why I challenged us

  747. because maybe you don't see it or you don't see it from my

  748. seat. Maybe you just looking this way

  749. and you just see one person or eight people or whatever but the

  750. people you sitting with This is why David brought it up, man.

  751. When I saw my sheep in the mouths of a bear and of a line,

  752. I ran and got them. And if I didn't go run and get

  753. the sheep that I was supposed to tend to how can I ever face a

  754. Goliath out there. and if you say you called to this church,

  755. I'm sorry to tell you but it comes a point where you move

  756. from a guess to a host And if you're a host, you don't get to

  757. choose when he when you own. because there are some waiters

  758. and waitresses that don't feel good, but guess what they got to

  759. do, host you And it don't matter if I'm cold and don't matter if

  760. it's hot it don't matter what it is.

  761. I gotta be on because there's someone sitting next to me

  762. that's trying to decide. Shall I live or shall I die.

  763. And I'm telling you just cuz you at church it does not mean the

  764. devil ain't here and he ate at people's minds So I'm telling

  765. you before I tell you I need you PJ need you to Elders.

  766. Need you God need you. It's harvest time, Big Time.

  767. God is sending people to this church and to churches around

  768. the city. And it's not about who's up

  769. here. because I'm going to do my job, but the true question is,

  770. You can't stay awake and I'm not talking literally.

  771. Because I see your eyes open. But you can't stay attentive.

  772. Master. Get off our back.

  773. I'm not on it. What I'm doing is trying to help

  774. you arrive to God is calling you.

  775. You're not called to just come and listen and get a word.

  776. I'm the pastor that's going to tell you.

  777. I'm tired of looking at anointed people do nothing.

  778. I'm tired of looking at prophetic gifts and Apostolic

  779. gifts. And Evangelistic gifts, I'm

  780. tired of seeing you just week after week after week, just be

  781. the same and be a slave to the world.

  782. While people need what's in you and is greater than your money,

  783. is greater than your intelligence.

  784. There's an anointing that I want to see all of you step into and

  785. get out of the pit and get out of victim and get out of pity

  786. parties and get out of just being a spectator of the gospel

  787. and be a carrier. You are not called to merely

  788. come to church and listen and say that's good it comes a point

  789. where you gotta take, what's up, what's given to you?

  790. And you are held responsible to apply it.

  791. Jesus said, can you stay attentive?

  792. For one hour. Can you please?

  793. And I want to be here at 8:40 telling you or asking you.

  794. I want to be like this on be chilling.

  795. But I feel it, very heavy. All these last few weeks.

  796. Every person in that bucket is ready.

  797. But are you ready to host the presence of God and then, are

  798. you ready to walk with those people in the bucket?

  799. From the time they do come his Lords.

  800. Like I could get them here but I'm not bringing yo bucket list.
