  13. the midst of Praise when people carry heaviness around, right?

  14. So you come in and as much as I'm trying to encourage you, I'm

  15. also trying to fight them Spirits off because, you know,

  23. Let me take you walk and you walk in your house tonight.

  24. When you get home all the lights are out.

  25. Tell me the first thing you're going to do.

  26. Why is that the first thing? Man you preaching and you don't

  27. even know it. You like you don't even know it.

  28. You don't even know it. Some people use some people.

  29. So in the dark, you don't even know when you preaching

  30. yourself. The first thing you do when you

  31. walk into darkness, before you do anything, before you go to

  32. the washroom before you later groceries, down before you close

  33. it, you find the light And if you didn't, that's what he

  34. means. You seek the light first.

  35. And all these other things will be added unto you.

  36. I get, I get to go to the washroom safely because or

  37. efficiently because I turned on the light.

  38. I'll get the put my groceries down. in the right place because

  39. I turned the light on, I'm not stumbling all over the house

  40. because I first turned my lights on So it's kind of like before

  41. you get this word, you need to do.

  42. What turn the lights on in. This is what worship?

  43. Gives you the opportunity to do. What turn the lights on and you

  44. wonder how when you don't engage in worship, you stumble in the

  45. word. So, the whole service you like

  46. what he meant, huh? Oh, he'll say it again.

  47. I'll go back and listen to it instead of worshiping and when

  48. you worshiping you tilling the soil or your ground, so is good

  49. ground. And so by the time to work come

  50. boy, you like you just catching it.

  51. Like Randy Moss, you don't know who Randy Moss is.

  52. That's okay. Right, you catching it like a

  53. hall of fame wide receiver. You don't know what the hall of

  54. fame or receiver is Okay, I'm gonna quit.

  55. Let It Burn, right? That's what I'm, that's what I'm

  56. trying to. That's what I'm trying to do.

  57. Man, I'm trying to, I'm trying to ignite a fire if you want to

  58. stay wet. Would you go?

  59. Right ahead. I don't even know why you come

  60. out on Wednesday if you want to stay wet wood but if you want

  61. something different in your life, when you get around people

  62. on fire, then let them set you on fire.

  63. All right, this this top is living in the realm of passion.

  64. I want to, I want to move. I want to move forward just

  65. because you have desires does not mean you have passion.

  66. Can I talk can I tell y'all real close together?

  67. You're gonna be able to type y'all good.

  68. Alright alright. Squish squish a man just because

  69. you have desires doesn't mean you got passion.

  70. There's a whole lot of depressed people.

  71. That got past that God desires. You ever you ever hungry and

  72. want something to eat, but you won't get up.

  73. And you just hoping somebody praise God for skip the dishes.

  74. But sometimes you don't even feel like ordering skip the

  75. dishes, right? You can be, you can have the

  76. desire to eat, but be too lazy and unmotivated.

  77. Right? Or is pass if you live in a

  78. neighborhood where all the skip the dishes it is they don't skip

  79. no more this past the hours of skip the dishes and like where I

  80. live skip the dishes. Don't stop somewhere about eight

  81. or nine and then what you get to choose from his world Slim Like

  82. pizza but then Pizza Hut. When you get older, you

  83. understand. Pizza Hut ain't really the

  84. choice that you want to choose if you care.

  85. So then you just go to bed and you just like, want to eat these

  86. little stale. Tortilla chips left in the, in

  87. the, in the cabinet. And then I'm just gonna drink

  88. some water and I'm going to go to sleep and eat the morning.

  89. You can have desires. I always talk about this because

  90. it's a big Topic in the world, but you can want a spouse but

  91. never have passion to be. Be a husband before you get a

  92. wife or be a wife before you get a husband.

  93. You don't become a wife. When you get married or a

  94. husband, when you get married, you become a husband before you

  95. get married and you become a wifey.

  96. So, if you really desire, a husband, what women start

  97. getting ready for one, you need to be preparing for one more

  98. than you hunting for one. Hallelujah.

  99. Right, right? You want people to see the

  100. truth? Not the potential that you want

  101. people to see who you getting who God is.

  102. It is a, how can I put this? Like who I am?

  103. This is who I am. Like like like my renewed self.

  104. Like if I was this guy when me and my wife met she would have

  105. had a real opportunity to be like yeah, I want to marry a

  106. pastor. But she, we met in the club.

  107. So a lot of our relationship have been surprises.

  108. Now, thank God, he is faithful and he can work that thing

  109. together. But some of y'all nowhere near

  110. who God has called you to be let alone.

  111. Do you have confidence in who you are and you are choosing a

  112. person or accepting a person based on your insecurities or

  113. what you need. You're not choosing based on

  114. what you're called to partner with based on purpose, you're

  115. choosing based on a season, you're in.

  116. And a need, you have how they talk to you in this season, is

  117. based on what you need for healing.

  118. So you can easily get tricked because he said the right thing.

  119. Oh, he listen to me. Of course you do whatever the

  120. fish in the lake. Need to catch the fish.

  121. But once the fish get in your Shin.

  122. You get to do what you want to do with it.

  123. So don't think because he listened to you on the first

  124. date, third date, second date. And then, once you give them the

  125. cookies, didn't you wondering why he don't like cookies?

  126. No more. Just because you have desires,

  127. does not mean you have passion. The realm of Revival and let me

  128. back up a little bit before real quick.

  129. I'm talking about the passion. Of Christ, The Passion of

  130. Kingdom living. Not the love of money or the

  131. love. Of your favorite food or a

  132. passion for traveling. I'm talking about unshakable

  133. passion. Timeout, purpose-driven passion.

  134. I'm talking about passion with a fight in it, right?

  135. The realm of Revival will always increase the love and passion

  136. and diversity. People that experience, Revival.

  137. True Revival will always cause or increase.

  138. Love, passion and diversity. And as we read the word will see

  139. that you don't have God's love without God's passion.

  140. They're interchangeable. The passionate, you know, the

  141. movie didn't say to Love Of Christ has hit the passion of

  142. Christ, right? He had passion for you and his

  143. passion driven drove him to the cross.

  144. Passion is like whatever it takes, that's why you got to be

  145. careful for where your passion is invested.

  146. Some of us have passion for things that leave us, heard us

  147. and then we're disappointed and then Our Hope and our passion is

  148. deferred. Are you you got this warm right

  149. now? You good.

  150. Can we can we know y'all got to do something about it.

  151. Amen. I'm going to have some coffee or

  152. something. Amen, you're making my voice

  153. work. Song of Solomon.

  154. Hang my locket, around your neck.

  155. Wear my ring on your finger, love is Invincible, facing

  156. danger and death. I'll say it again.

  157. Love is Invincible facing danger and that what is what is

  158. Invincible me? You are like look at the word

  159. like the word on crack open. A definition for you.

  160. What does invincible mean? Huh.

  161. Can't be defeated. Can't be destroyed.

  162. Indestructible. This is a smart section that was

  163. the single section Sunday. Now, they do smart section, What

  164. is invincible mean? Can't be killed Unstoppable.

  165. Listen to what this say look at listen Fe over there that we got

  166. it. Now she over there looking all

  167. kind of search engines in trying to come with a deep definition

  168. amen. It's the nuclear your reaction

  169. to the Sonic sound of the love of God.

  170. Look love. Is Unstoppable, facing danger

  171. and death. Now, the extreme is death.

  172. And so, we understand what was inside.

  173. Jesus. The spirit of God.

  174. Amen. And we understood death could

  175. not hold you, that's what they're saying.

  176. So if I'm filled with the spirit of God, if death could not stop

  177. Jesus and what are we allowing? Some of us are not even we none

  178. of us in here even faced with death.

  179. We're faced with haters. Were faced with getting fired

  180. were faced with somebody breaking up with us.

  181. We're faced with rumors. We not even faced with death,

  182. and we're about to faint, we want to lose our mind, we losing

  183. our sanity, like the stuff that we magnify.

  184. It's way bigger than what we make it right.

  185. Look, I don't I don't I'm a decently big, dude. but if a

  186. mouse running the room, that's PJ's job right there.

  187. Because in my mind, a mouse in my mind a mouse, Somehow got

  188. some power over me, so I don't even want to.

  189. Deal with it. But in my mind like in the

  190. Bible, there was two men that said, we could take the promised

  191. land and then there was a large group of people said, we're only

  192. like grasshoppers, who said they was like grasshoppers, it was

  193. how they saw themselves, but let alone how they saw.

  194. They self, they saw themselves small because they met in a

  195. fight their opponent. And to me you might think, oh, I

  196. can't overcome this. This is too hard.

  197. It's only as ha Hard. As you are magnifying, whatever

  198. you think is coming against you. Oh I can't make it through this.

  199. Why can't you make it through this?

  200. Who told you? You can't make it through this.

  201. But your magnifying, the circumstance, your magnifying,

  202. the situation not knowing there's something greater in you

  203. than he circumstance. That is in the world.

  204. Love is Unstoppable, facing Danger.

  205. And death. Let me put it this way.

  206. God passion. Is invincible.

  207. Okay, another way Bible says nothing is impossible with God

  208. or another scripture. I can do all things through

  209. Christ, why through Christ There's a passion.

  210. There's an Unstoppable immovable unshakable in this about Jesus.

  211. so, instead of seeing do it, Lord, You got to see that the

  212. Lord you telling us to save your city, he's in you and can't do

  213. it without you doing it. He needs your hands, your brain,

  214. your tongue, your feet, your obedience, your win, your

  215. breath, your life, your eyes. He needs you to look wide open.

  216. He needs you to look excited. He ain't gonna matter if you

  217. feel like it. But, I'm smiling because these,

  218. Jesus teeth and Jesus want to smile right now.

  219. Jesus is trying to encourage somebody You got you, what?

  220. You go to the dentist for what you taking care of your teeth

  221. for if Jesus can't use them. Might as well be bucktooth

  222. rotten mouth. Nothing.

  223. You know. Say it stank breath.

  224. Do it. God ain't can't use your mouth,

  225. so let it be trash. It's like I didn't matter if I

  226. feel like it, but it wherever their souls, I become a vessel.

  227. That's what he said. I bought you with a price, your

  228. temple is the Temple of the Holy Ghost.

  229. It's like, I'm not gonna cuss when I go to church, okay?

  230. You're not gonna cuss in a building, but you're going to

  231. cuss in this building. So just go Gossett church, but

  232. this is the building you to church.

  233. Love is Invincible. We still there huh?

  234. Passion laughs at 10. Do me a favor 15 minutes, 15

  235. minute intervals, let's turn the heater off.

  236. You keep the time writing. Only remind you turn the heater

  237. off, 15 minutes. Y'all be I'm gonna be half of

  238. 15. Y'all gonna be cold 15 we gon we

  239. gon this you know I'm saying? God loves everybody.

  240. And then when he turned the heater back on, I'ma roll my

  241. eyes, just like y'all did. Okay, show you how you look to

  242. me. Passion, say passion right.

  243. Say it with some passion. So we don't even know his like

  244. how's that passion? Passion should be the amen

  245. passion laughs at the Terrors of hail passion like passion laughs

  246. at the Terrors of Hell. The threats of hell.

  247. You know saying you ever, um, I know y'all don't fight here in

  248. British Columbia but where I'm from we used to play box.

  249. You get ready to get in the fight.

  250. Somebody when you get people to Flinch and sometime you, and

  251. there's some people like right this week saying, passion laughs

  252. at the you got to say it is was saying all that, all the devil

  253. did this week was, He like get somebody please pray for me.

  254. I don't know if I can live another day but all he did was

  255. This is, this is so, so, so so. So Jesus defeating the grave,

  256. only gave the enemy the power to do this.

  257. All he can do is fletch. All he can do is drop seeds and

  258. hopefully you buy it. And then you the one turned it

  259. into a big thing. You, he dropped the seed, you

  260. turned it into a narrative. You created the story in your

  261. mind and then familiar spirits latched on it because you gave

  262. them permission and then you have supporters of your

  263. narrative. So then because you have

  264. supporters, guess what? Now you have a right to fill it

  265. and then everybody else who's not standing with your

  266. narrative. You need to leave churches.

  267. You need to leave relationships because you don't understand me.

  268. You're controlling your doing this?

  269. No, I just don't believe he old narrative.

  270. I'm just not a victim of your narrative, I taking a higher

  271. narrative and he is a Healer, he can get you through this and for

  272. you to get out of your narrative.

  273. Sometime you need to break the shackles of certain

  274. relationships. Because would you understand?

  275. No one's telling you to break up with the person or get rid of

  276. the person but sometimes it takes you to leave a physical

  277. person to disconnect from a spirit that that person is

  278. hosting. Right.

  279. Some come, some some combinations are good for each

  280. other. So that's a good person but with

  281. you two together you or them bring something out of you.

  282. So it's just some combinations, isn't you?

  283. Can get three Superstars playing on the same team.

  284. It doesn't guarantee a championship.

  285. You need to write negatives in your life, like accountability.

  286. Right now I don't feel good but that's a good negative.

  287. That's a negative that leads me to change.

  288. Versus the negative. That's kind of a flies behind

  289. agreement from people who don't want to see me go higher.

  290. Passion laughs at the Terrors of hell.

  291. The fire of love the fire of Love or the passion of Love

  292. stops at nothing. Are you can't stop somebody when

  293. they have their passion cling to something greater.

  294. They're driven it sweeps everything before it, you were

  295. in my way, he told Joshua it is. He said, go the way I was with

  296. Moses. I'll be with you.

  297. Everywhere your feet tread. It's yours who said that love

  298. Don't let your skates you forgot.

  299. God is love agape. Right.

  300. So he said it sweeps everything before it.

  301. Why couldn't they stop Jesus? Because he was God.

  302. Um, this is where you use is where you minimize the power of

  303. our Humanity with Jesus in it. No, he denied.

  304. That side of him. To the point where he was fully

  305. God. Yeah, he was fully man tempted

  306. as man. But you think it was the god

  307. side of him that carried him to the cross?

  308. The only part of the god side that he walked in was the love

  309. of God. the power of God, even the woman with the issue of

  310. blood, he said your faith has made you whole But that was

  311. Jesus. Did it know Jesus didn't touch

  312. her. He didn't look at her.

  313. He didn't talk to her. She was healed before they made

  314. eye contact. But let me tell you this, Jesus

  315. had to be baptized like, you and I Jesus had to be filled with

  316. the Holy Ghost, like you. And I jesus fasted like you and

  317. I, so if he was just all God and he could have forfeited, all

  318. that he didn't eat the fast. He didn't need to get baptized,

  319. but there were things he had to do.

  320. There was an order, he had to walk in so that in his flesh,

  321. demon still had to buy. So the Bible says the same

  322. spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in.

  323. So, so what what, what, what, what thing you magnify it?

  324. It is such an insult to God's love when we become babies.

  325. When faced with challenges, when I say, I'm not talking about

  326. major chain, talking about sickness, and like, I get some

  327. of the but I'm talking about, like serving But it like that

  328. you like that inconvenience. Oh, we got to have another

  329. service. We got to go to church on

  330. Sunday, really? We don't get it.

  331. Are complaining to serve God and push the kingdom of God, speaks

  332. to our lack of revelation of his love for us.

  333. Because what drives me up here, Pastor T how you just be going.

  334. I'm just loud his passion for you.

  335. To be my priority. Because if it was me, I'd be

  336. like I don't want to be here. Like you don't want to be here,

  337. but his passion for you and we're so self-absorbed.

  338. We don't, we got can't his passion can't live in us for

  339. nothing else but us It's so whenever God is trying to move

  340. us forward to higher calling, we're afraid because that means

  341. that what I need time for this and I need time for my kids and

  342. I need time for that yet but God has this really cool way.

  343. Of bringing capacity priority like like he has a way of

  344. dealing with the people. You you think gonna be mad at

  345. you? Like, he has this cool way of

  346. making it all work together, but you'll never see that until you

  347. leap out in faith. You ready for this?

  348. Do not think whoever this is for, do not think because

  349. someone isn't reminding you, you have a call to answer.

  350. It's God giving you time No, you're being proven.

  351. Do not think because like, you know, it's a call on your life,

  352. you know, you should be moving forward but whatever excuses

  353. that are crippling you. That is stopping the passion of

  354. Jesus Christ from flowing through you to others.

  355. Do not think, because he's not bringing it up again, he's not

  356. giving you a sign because Pastor T is in begging, you are asking

  357. you or reminding you. Nah, you got to be proactive

  358. about your call. I can't answer the phone.

  359. For you. It's in your pocket.

  360. That's a violation. If your phone ringing are going,

  361. your parking be like, who there? You pressing the red button on

  362. the Lord? Floodwaters can't drown love

  363. torrents of rain. Can't put it out.

  364. Love can't be bought love can't be sold, it's not to be found in

  365. the marketplace. My brothers used to worry about

  366. me. John 15 says for the greatest,

  367. love the greatest, love the greatest love.

  368. Right. We've taught on love, there's

  369. Eros, there's fee Leo's, there's there, you know, I'm saying

  370. there? There's four different five

  371. different types of love and it's only one marriage is agape not

  372. Eros. Right?

  373. So if you you marry, you can dish, you know, you and

  374. relationships is condition. That is not the love of God.

  375. We'll teach on that glove. Going wild again, one day.

  376. For The Greatest. Love of All is a love that

  377. sacrifices all And this great love is demonstrated when a

  378. person sacrifices his or her life for his friends.

  379. So, I'm gonna put this weed down.

  380. So, the friends, I'm praying about to God, to come to God,

  381. I'm not the spliff in a way. Ready saying about do I love

  382. party and do I love drinking? Do I love smoking?

  383. This ain't about that. This is about a higher level of

  384. love because I don't want to be a stumbling block.

  385. Because my sip is only permission from our friends

  386. addiction. I don't want to be the door.

  387. I don't want to be the permission slip.

  388. You get it right. You give you don't say it.

  389. I thought it at first, I thought at first that was Jenkins that

  390. would dig is the highest form of love is infused with the highest

  391. form of passion. This is why I'm like critic, I

  392. love Jesus but you don't have no passion.

  393. So, what's in you then religion because religion don't have

  394. passion. I can't sit in the service and

  395. not be able to raise my hand. Not be able to dance, not to be

  396. able to do do do what the fire is making me do and some people

  397. I don't feel like you feel well, same God, same, Holy Ghost, my

  398. question do you let them? Are you available?

  399. Kitt, can you use your hands to clap?

  400. Do you know when you clap it's a witness.

  401. You don't matter if you want to clap but the song see it gives

  402. you permission to clap. Somebody come in church for the

  403. first time and see you clap because you look like a trucker

  404. So then a trucker come to church.

  405. He finds a trucker. Truckers.

  406. No Truckers. Right.

  407. Look date day. Got his hoodie on, right?

  408. Not keep your hoodie on, bro. They got his hoodie on right

  409. now. Let me Brett.

  410. Right now, Brett may look across the room and see, Dave.

  411. Me like, huh? That's interesting, man.

  412. And if Brett don't know the Lord, if Bret Hart ain't right.

  413. He gonna think he lost. He don't know, day serve, he

  414. don't know. They got a call on his, he don't

  415. know. Right.

  416. But, but Bret Macy Day clapping his hands and that can deal with

  417. some Prejudice in Brett's heart. Because he ain't never seen

  418. somebody with a hood on. Worship God.

  419. Cy, in the Simplicity of our worship.

  420. We tear down strongholds and we tear down mindsets and

  421. perceptions. And that's why I love a church

  422. like this. Because when you think you

  423. figured all race out or an ethnicity out or a culture out,

  424. you come in. And when we all praising God

  425. Under One Roof and under one purpose and under one voice,

  426. man, what it does to people's lives.

  427. It's it's unexplainable. This is why you keeping your

  428. hands in your pockets, in your arms cross.

  429. You're robbing your neighbor. If you really want to see

  430. people, well Lord says you sacrifice all even your pride.

  431. You want to know how you killed Pride sacrifice it?

  432. The moment Pride rise up and you like, I'm not raising my hand.

  433. Somebody coming everybody in the room.

  434. Just lift your hands and you over there.

  435. The moment you make that decision, you have an

  436. opportunity to kill pride. And the only reason I'm lifting

  437. my hands is not because I want to, but I also don't want Pride

  438. to have a strong hole in my life.

  439. So, me being obedient, it's worth my freedom.

  440. This is why we give people instructions.

  441. Because you prayed before you came in Lord, I need a

  442. breakthrough. Sometime breakthrough comes

  443. through obedience and you think it's all?

  444. I'm not lifting my hands on got to do all that.

  445. What if that was the route? Maybe, maybe yours Lord, seeing

  446. what stopping your breakthrough is your ego and your pride.

  447. So, he gives you an opportunity to confront your ego and your

  448. pride. she's, And this great love there's no greater love

  449. than one sacrifices. We are Glory carriers, man.

  450. There's something in US. That our neighbors need last

  451. week. We touched on this arise from

  452. spiritual depression to a new life shine.

  453. It is a try to shine it in say, work to shine.

  454. It, just said, shine be a light. How can you be alike?

  455. Because there is a light in You, You Just Let It Shine, Let It

  456. Shine, Let It Shine. Have you ever when you turn your

  457. light on and the light, do what it do?

  458. It come on. Like most of the time when I hit

  459. the light switch in my in my house because the bill paid

  460. boom. I'm not sure I've never tried to

  461. assist the light and shiny. I just what Let It Shine.

  462. But I first have to what? You wake up on field, like doing

  463. this today. Turn it on.

  464. How do you turn it on? Turn the right music.

  465. Go turn on light. Say the right words.

  466. Don't wake up complaining if you want to feel better.

  467. And the glory and Brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you,

  468. right? We read this scripture.

  469. Last week, Darkness will cover the Earth and deep Darkness or

  470. dense. Darkness will cover the peoples.

  471. And I remember after leaving on Sunday, I was so stirred up and

  472. I'm like, God, dealt with me while a lot of stuff that this

  473. church needs to get ready for I some people don't know this but

  474. not every church is ready to host every religion.

  475. But he said, love quest. That's why I gave you that name

  476. because every religion is on a love quest.

  477. And this is why Christians often have said that sounds strange.

  478. Because it sound like we, we love quit like we some weird

  479. cold or some type of like you know I'm saying like we do Raves

  480. or I mean we be raving but you know I'm saying like it's love

  481. anytime it's how how the devil has perverted love is some

  482. hippie movement or we get high at church or something like

  483. that. No, no.

  484. What God said? He said Terrence I can trust you

  485. to be brave enough and bold enough and loving enough.

  486. He some people on all Sunday a Hindu in here.

  487. There's Muslim in here. Here's a new age in here.

  488. And God said I'm sending when you, when you say all nations,

  489. that's not all Christians. That's all nations.

  490. That's all religions. That's all people type.

  491. Then he took me to the scripture.

  492. And then he took me to the scripture.

  493. He took me to the scripture where and I might deal with this

  494. on Sunday but I really want to dig into it before I present it

  495. to you. But how many places in the

  496. Bible? Daniel Shadrach Meshach and

  497. Abednego Elijah. We're like Elijah was the prime

  498. example in front of other kings and idols and gods, it was like,

  499. let's do it. In front of the, in front of the

  500. prophets of Baal in front of, in front of Daniel, like, no, I'm

  501. not praying and secret. I'm going to raise.

  502. I'm going to invite you into my faith.

  503. This Is What miracles signs and wonders of fore.

  504. You see Pharaoh, you see potiphar if he could just find a

  505. Moses. If he could just find a Joseph,

  506. that's not afraid to go in or let people in then.

  507. God's like what I got all these religions here at one time now

  508. about to heal, now I'm about to set free now, I'm about to

  509. deliver We want God to do miracles in front of nothing,

  510. but Christians. That ain't what Miracles are for

  511. we're saved. If I'm going to heaven with one

  512. leg, I don't need the other one. When I get there, I'll get the

  513. other one. But people need to see that God

  514. is alive. But there ain't many places were

  515. other religions. Feel welcome.

  516. How does a Hindu, how does a Muslim feel at home when they

  517. come in the house of God? Because we didn't told them that

  518. they ain't God's children. Can they come in a place?

  519. Where love is so authentic and tangible that a person from

  520. another religion can come in and be like, I feel at home.

  521. That's the father's house. That's why we don't necessarily

  522. need Church transfers. God is about to transfer

  523. religions, he's about to call his sons and his daughters home

  524. man. Folks are about to make

  525. decisions. People are about to be broken

  526. free from the fear of disappointing.

  527. Their family members. Some people only believe what

  528. they believe because they grew up believing that.

  529. But God is saying there, sir more.

  530. He did lie, you ready? God is not saying to everybody

  531. there something else. He's just saying there's more.

  532. Because when you look at the core of a lot of these

  533. religions, they took a piece of the Bible.

  534. Truth and then did their own thing on it.

  535. So you better demesnes. Some of these really we can't

  536. persecute the Hindu. We can't persecute the seat.

  537. We can't persecute why these people like I love God.

  538. Yeah, I got a problem with Jesus and maybe a problem with Jesus

  539. because his body don't look like him. you miss that right there,

  540. where the body Where the image. So when they look at us and we

  541. say Jesus, the only way I'm like if they look if Jesus look like

  542. them, I'm not going that way. Think about it.

  543. Somebody walked up to you in the street beautiful face.

  544. Beautiful. If it's a man, he like handsome.

  545. He's ideal. Female Walker to you.

  546. Fellas. Beautiful face ideal.

  547. They like, I'll be right back and as they walk into the

  548. bathroom you see they body. and it's all like the crep it and

  549. it's all nasty and this It's not consistent.

  550. With the face that walk that Walker turn you off in a minute.

  551. You know I'm saying man there was this girl and look didn't I

  552. hope you have a you don't say it but there was these are facts.

  553. There was this girl. Hey these deals this girl and

  554. there was this girl, I feel there was this girl in, my

  555. junior is my junior high school Tiffany.

  556. Tiffany was gorgeous. No, no.

  557. PJ PJ know. I told PJ this Story.

  558. Come on, are We screaming? Come on told PJ this tree, I

  559. told PJ the story Pete. Now, Junior, High School.

  560. Listen, Tiffany was a gorgeous young lady.

  561. Light skin. Had a little wavy hair, right?

  562. And and Tiffany she had no one leg.

  563. She had aesthetic leg. And fellas didn't care about

  564. their static leg. Tiffany dated, a lot of people,

  565. okay? But for some people, the point

  566. I'm trying to make is like, Does his body look, does this body

  567. love? does this body is his body,

  568. strong is his body, the marriages of the body, the words

  569. that come out of the body's mouth, the patience of the body,

  570. the long-suffering of does the body, Is it consistent?

  571. Why does that matter? He said I'm coming back for a

  572. beautiful bride. Ain't that what he said?

  573. I'm coming back with for a body, a bride that is consistent with

  574. my nature. It's like on a just you know, if

  575. this is you in here, this is the lord loves you but ain't nothing

  576. like an amazing beautiful person that smoked a lot of cigarettes.

  577. Or that has a nasty mouth. You just know you just bad at.

  578. You're beautiful. You're beautiful young person or

  579. lady or man, but with the way you talk is so far.

  580. Here's, here's, here's the point that there has to be a

  581. representation. of the Jesus, we talked about And if you stick

  582. around a place long enough, you see if they'd a real-deal

  583. authentic love, I'm not talking about church, love, welcome to

  584. love class, but you don't never talk to me.

  585. All right, one of the most consistent.

  586. Compliments that love quest. Get is that the people really

  587. experience the love of God? And the one another word that

  588. it's authentic, not saying we don't love you, we're not

  589. excited to have people, come to our church, but there's

  590. something when you encounter authenticity, it's undeniable.

  591. And I'm saying that the bride as a whole is not consistent.

  592. We got a limb over there, a limb over there, we got toes over

  593. there, we are so divided. Here's what the Bible says,

  594. correct me. If I'm wrong EJ.

  595. He says that he gave the apostles, the prophets, the

  596. pastor, the teachers and the evangelists and the reason why

  597. he did that he says until it's the Equipping of the Saints for

  598. the work of the ministry. Until we come into the unity of

  599. the faith in Jesus. So there's something very

  600. important that we have to get that he ain't coming back till

  601. we unify. But I believe this is my crazy

  602. mind. We're so human that if we got

  603. the time will take forever to unify.

  604. So there has to be a moment like like like like think about the

  605. pandemic think about the Twin Towers in the United States.

  606. Think about catastrophes, think about moments that globally,

  607. unite us that globally, put us in Year.

  608. So it can happen that within a day everybody get United.

  609. The terror is so strong. That could be an event that

  610. happens that make us need each other.

  611. And put our theology, as I say forget it, Jesus is Lord.

  612. He got a cool come on now right now because y'all don't change

  613. your mind. Right.

  614. But I truly believe, love quest prophetically speaking that God

  615. is about to really send people from all types of Faith, all

  616. types of denominations, all type of religious backgrounds.

  617. So there's some things that we're about to get together on

  618. the teaching side to equip us as Believers to understand the

  619. major Global religions. Because we don't have some

  620. explaining to do and some answers to give because God's

  621. going to Miracle sign in Wonder this thing.

  622. But when people are about to make a decision, they just need

  623. some answers. Right?

  624. The Harvest st. Just, oh, no, sometimes the

  625. Harvest is low-hanging fruit because people are ready to

  626. talk. Your watch first 40 you ever

  627. watched him. They'll let them sit in there

  628. for five hours anyway. I think he ready to talk now.

  629. You get you'll get the guy knock on the door.

  630. Hey anybody out there? I'm ready to talk.

  631. Come on man. Right.

  632. People, tired. They tired of running.

  633. A tired of confusion, they're tired of supplementing.

  634. Like they're tired of what he called the entire drink and

  635. tired of pop and peel. They're like people are tired.

  636. And if we ain't equipped, and we go lose a harvest. but on the

  637. flip side, we're going to have to understand where people are

  638. coming from so that we can properly, equip them, and teach

  639. them. So they can have a firm

  640. foundation because where people are coming from, they going to

  641. have to have answers to family. They don't have family turn on

  642. them. They, yeah, we made me.

  643. We Men. I'm so glad God talking to me

  644. like this. This is good stuff right here.

  645. This is good stuff right here. This is Benny Hinn.

  646. Anybody ever heard of any hair? Don't care.

  647. If you saw it when people made jokes about them, Right.

  648. But that was authentic miracles, signs and wonders that has

  649. happened under his ministry, but if you ever went to one of his

  650. Crusades, if you go to any major Crusade, you see people from all

  651. walks of religions and faiths and let me help.

  652. You understand everybody in the Bible that received a miracle

  653. wasn't saved You think Jesus? Jesus just want to heal

  654. Christians. Moving right along for in fact,

  655. Darkness will cover the Earth. But the Lord will rise upon his

  656. people. So wherever there's thick

  657. Darkness, we need thick lights, we need strong.

  658. Like you you ever drive home after church and see

  659. construction happening. You see them with Edison, lights

  660. on the construction site? You see them with Club lights on

  661. the construction side? You don't see the disco ball on

  662. the construction site. You, you see big construction,

  663. lights and water. Those lights called flood

  664. lights. So God's About To Shine On Us in

  665. a major way. The enemy.

  666. Let me, let me advance. Let me let me advance, let me

  667. advance, let me advance. I think we got like 60 more

  668. seconds. I think 15 minutes pass with the

  669. heater. It man, the enemy.

  670. The enemy is after our passion. A passionless we're about to get

  671. into some good good. Okay.

  672. A passionless person is a easily defeated person.

  673. A passionless member member. He said, love or passion.

  674. Cannot be stopped. It's invisible.

  675. So, what I understand is a passionless person is in easily

  676. defeated /. That's why I can't be no church

  677. where there ain't no passion, it's not good enough for us to

  678. teach you about a person who had passion, but the God I serve his

  679. passion is transferable. A passionless person is in

  680. easily defeated person. John 5, Jesus said to him, do

  681. you truly long to be well, his brother sitting on the side of

  682. the pool. The story says when the angel

  683. comes Stirs up the water. That's the time to get in.

  684. Say time. The time they get in is stirred

  685. up and Jesus asked his brother, who has been lame all his life.

  686. He's on a stretcher, on a bed. He says, do you want to be with

  687. any? Like if you had an addiction

  688. issue, if you was in the hospital with tubes, up your

  689. nose, when you be kind of offended, Jesus walking the

  690. sickroom and say, hey, You want to be well?

  691. And that's what I'm asking. Some of you.

  692. You can come in here all you want to but showing up to

  693. church. Does it mean you will have the

  694. passion to get the results? You desire?

  695. The question is, do you really want to be well do you want to

  696. be transformed? Do you want things to be new in

  697. your life? The sick man answers sir.

  698. There's no way I can get healed for.

  699. I have no one to lower me. Excuses, can I help anybody?

  700. You didn't, you didn't, you didn't cancel yourself out

  701. because of your resume because of your background because of

  702. the mistakes you made because people walked out on you.

  703. You didn't cancel yourself. Ain't no way.

  704. I can advance. Ain't no way I can get that job.

  705. Ain't no way somebody going to want to be my friend.

  706. Ain't no way. He said nobody going to lower

  707. me. Nobody gonna give me a hand out

  708. into the water when the angel comes.

  709. As soon as I try to crawl to the edge of the pool, someone else

  710. jumps in ahead of me. It sounds like the one Jesus

  711. talking to, don't got the passion.

  712. But he keeps getting passed up by people with what passion.

  713. Ain't It? Funny all of them need healing,

  714. but not all of them. Got passion.

  715. The woman with the issue of blood touch, Jesus.

  716. Jesus said that touches different, what was different

  717. between the woman with the issue of blood and all the people who

  718. was crying out to Jesus name He responds to the desperate

  719. people. Not popular people.

  720. Not rich people desperate people.

  721. This is why he say, man to the to the rich man is hard.

  722. Is hard because your wealth might take away your passion for

  723. me. Can you be wealthy and

  724. passionate about Jesus? As soon as I try.

  725. There's been a hit out on your passion.

  726. Thank you. That's how y'all respond when

  727. the heater when you hear the heater come home.

  728. There's been a hit out on your passion.

  729. There's been. Let me let me read when hopes

  730. dream seems to drag on and on the delay can be depressing.

  731. But when at last, your dream comes true, life sweetness will

  732. satisfy your soul. The other translation says, hope

  733. deferred makes the heart. Sick sweet.

  734. This one more time when hopes dream seems to drag on and on

  735. the delay can be depressing. But when at last, your dream

  736. comes true, life sweetness will satisfy your.

  737. So I just want to before we move on, I want to help people

  738. understand or just think about there's a difference between

  739. delay and destroyed. Don't allow your trauma.

  740. To respond as though, your dreams have been destroyed.

  741. Maybe they just been what delayed I have to start a week

  742. ago, and I said, holy spirit, remind me when you want me to

  743. say it and he just reminded me. You had to write this down.

  744. We have to learn how to traumatize our trauma.

  745. Your hope traumatize has trauma. You're testifying traumatizes

  746. your trauma, your praise traumatizes, your don't just be

  747. the traumatized. Traumatize, your trauma, stop

  748. being a victim. Stop laying down to trauma and

  749. traumatized trauma. Get trauma out your face.

  750. Right, it's cool. You getting therapy but God did

  751. not. He did.

  752. Not Jesus did not die for you to understand your trauma.

  753. Or cope with your trauma, he died for you to overcome your

  754. trauma. So, again understanding helps me

  755. identify the windows in the doors in the understanding of

  756. how the enemy has set traps in my life but I don't stop it.

  757. Understanding. Understanding equips me.

  758. It arms me. It gives me the ability to

  759. intelligently fight back. I'll say it again, understanding

  760. the name of a thing, a diagnosis should not crippled me.

  761. It should acquit me an army to fight back intelligent Lee and

  762. eat fish, Aunt Leigh. So I'm not just swinging in the

  763. dark. I can actually have target

  764. practice when people have goals and dreams, they put That

  765. specific detail upon a mirror up on a dashboard, and they begin

  766. to go after that. That's what the Bible says.

  767. Don't turn to the left or the right, if his cancer, if his

  768. diabetes, if it's children's trauma, if it's whatever it is,

  769. put it up there. Whenever you look in the

  770. overcome don't just put stuff you want in your life.

  771. Like I got a dream to do this but what are you killing put

  772. that on your mirror. I put depression on my mirror

  773. and all this week. I am.

  774. I'm coming after you depression. What's your goals to overcome

  775. depression? If you got goals to have a

  776. mansion, you should have goals to overcome fear.

  777. What's the strategy in the steps to overcome your insufficiencies

  778. and your fears and your trauma? He said he deferred this word,

  779. deferred means took a different route.

  780. It just kind of slid. The other way it ran into

  781. traffic, these was my definitions.

  782. But if you go find, if you trust Webster more than me, I'm

  783. totally cool with that. But you'll find that Webster and

  784. I are similar to still how I talk.

  785. Ran into traffic. Rain delay, cancellations.

  786. Right? You go to airport playing got

  787. canceled. That's frustrating when you got

  788. somewhere to be. And you've been gone forever.

  789. It took a different route. It ran into traffic.

  790. See these are things. You gotta man, it's a rain

  791. delay. Anytime there's a rain delay in

  792. baseball or football. It doesn't mean the game is

  793. over. It just means that there's it's

  794. postponed to a later date or later time in the day, stop

  795. throwing fits because the time has been changed.

  796. You thought it was going to happen this year?

  797. It's okay. It could happen on January

  798. first. but stop throwing a fit because when you throw fits you

  799. distract yourself, It's just been delayed, not destroyed.

  800. It's coming but in God's timing. What you need to do is make sure

  801. you prepare yourself for God's timing.

  802. The Firm. It doesn't kill.

  803. But disappointment, mishandled kills.

  804. Deferment does not kill alone. He's like oh I got to do.

  805. I got to go another, let me let me leave.

  806. I went one way to get the church.

  807. Did I see a little traffic? Check the GPS.

  808. Zoom in. Zoom out.

  809. Okay, we can go that way. I have to go a different route

  810. but I still got here. And I was still, my music didn't

  811. change, my praise, didn't change, my sermon didn't change

  812. nothing changed. I just took a different route

  813. children. Israel went a different route

  814. and because it was the longer route and instead of trusting

  815. God, they was ready to go back to bondage because it was taken

  816. long or it didn't go the way that they thought it should go.

  817. When are we going to stop throwing spiritual fits because

  818. he don't go. This generation needs to stop

  819. throwing fits. You know the backs, you know,

  820. why? You got freedom because there

  821. was people who took the long route.

  822. There is people who was hose down, there was people who have

  823. to March, there was people at the fight, there was family

  824. members, who have to be broke, have the swim and have to hop on

  825. boats to get here so you can have a better way.

  826. You don't have half of the heartache that your mama your

  827. grandma, my great Grandmama had stop complaining, The firming

  828. doesn't kill, but disappointment mishandled.

  829. Will kill. Jesus Took the disciples From

  830. Success to fulfillment. Yet he was providing for their

  831. family but they wasn't fulfilled taking them that's up every day.

  832. All right, fellas. See you tomorrow.

  833. The boy, if you look at they life after Jesus, what they

  834. stood, for the passion, they had Peter was a runner But then he

  835. had the power God in him and he began to preach the gospel.

  836. He was willing to be persecuted. There was a passion now he was

  837. fulfilled. He was ready to die for Jesus.

  838. You know, you don't have true passion until you ready to die.

  839. For some on passion. So, my passion to my

  840. fulfillment. The enemy came to steal, your

  841. hope, kill your passion, and Destroy God's plan.

  842. Our passion has to be able to contend with our pain.

  843. PCC. When pain comes, Passion Rises

  844. up. Here you go.

  845. Look, just just on a small practical way Sunday, three

  846. services, Hallelujah, right? Every time the music raised up,

  847. I couldn't hear myself. And I remember standing down

  848. here talking to somebody after service, I don't like, man, I

  849. wish my voice is they first time companies like, man, you can

  850. preach. I was like, man, I wish my boys

  851. was here but I didn't I didn't like have my full power.

  852. You're from another religion, too.

  853. They said, yeah, you didn't have your voice but we still felt the

  854. passion and the power. We still felt the power.

  855. See, I didn't even you if you allow me to talk just a little

  856. bit. Just give me a just give me a

  857. little bit of breath. If y'all got to listen a little

  858. bit harder. Because I get all the time.

  859. Y'all got it, good? But on what Sunday, if y'all got

  860. to lean in a little bit more, at one thing I got is passion and

  861. passion communicates conviction communicates power is released

  862. and it's important. And what happened what would

  863. happen if I decided to say, oranges?

  864. I'm almost I'ma lay off tonight cuz just make sure I'm good for

  865. next week. But 30 Souls couldn't wait till

  866. next week. What is your why?

  867. Hope is the gatekeeper for passion.

  868. What have you given up on hoping for Faith is the substance of

  869. things hoped for understand that.

  870. And I need my faith. I need my passion and I need

  871. these things work together. If I don't have nothing to hope

  872. for, I don't have nothing to have passion for.

  873. This one. This is why you understand, why?

  874. Your passion is up and down because you only have passion

  875. when you excited. But I got passion every day,

  876. because every day God needs to touch somebody.

  877. You'll catch that. When you get home sometime next

  878. week, you got to understand that I always will because you become

  879. a vessel for a Eternal fire. Right.

  880. So you even if I'm discouraged, there's a fire that overrides my

  881. discouragement and it's oftentimes through lending my

  882. discouraged vessel For a fire and then I serve you and then

  883. I'll go in the back and all of a sudden the fire that came

  884. through me for you burned out my discouragement.

  885. You little patty cake Christians.

  886. They man, you'll get in a minute.

  887. Amen. Hope is the gatekeeper for this

  888. passion? Let's move it right along.

  889. Only got a few minutes. Where do I want to go II?

  890. Told you. I'll give you some in some, I

  891. give you this. I was going to give you the one

  892. with the issue of blood how she kept saying to herself.

  893. If I Could Touch even his clothes, she kept saying, I know

  894. I'll be healed if I if I could kick.

  895. If she just kept saying, she kept talking To our self.

  896. It was herself. Talk that gaster up enough to

  897. crawl to Jesus. She was just sitting there

  898. Desiring to be healed at some point.

  899. She had to because Jesus didn't come to her house.

  900. She had to go get Jesus. She sent forth the word and met

  901. her word. She let me, let me resist,

  902. allowing your pain or process to push out your passion.

  903. Resist allowing your pain or process to push out your

  904. passion. Your passion is a witness.

  905. Your passion is a witness. You don't have to feel

  906. passionate to be passionate. Man, I understand that Jesus

  907. knows my don't stop there. The Fire or the passion can

  908. build or increase and spread by you feeding it, Fanning it and

  909. fencing it My second Timothy says, I'm writing to encourage

  910. you to Fan into a flame, you know.

  911. It's not a flame but you fan it into a flame and rekindle the

  912. fire, right? You see proverbs 4 says, so

  913. above all guard, the affections the passions of your heart for

  914. they affect all that you are. So my identity is dependent on

  915. my passion or lack thereof. The people are attracted my

  916. life. Do you know your passion?

  917. Whatever you have passion for tracks or keep certain people

  918. away? Oh my passion, for Jesus for

  919. show, keep some people away. Right my convictions, keep

  920. certain people. That helps I don't got to turn

  921. nobody away. They turn themselves away.

  922. Once they identify oh I can't penetrate that fire.

  923. I can't change his mind on that right but joking Fusion it draws

  924. thieves in your life. Yohan decisiveness you'll

  925. insecurities draw people like like they draw blood suckers

  926. into your life because it's a spirit that says oh Gomez Tim.

  927. They don't know who they are, maybe we can shape them to beat

  928. something. I'ma need them down the line.

  929. So let me get you and they life and let me get you to shape

  930. something in their life, leave him hanging and then later on

  931. down, they're going to be angry bitter.

  932. They going to be something. And you see, this is why I made

  933. up my mind, a conviction of this is who I am and whether you like

  934. it or not. I'm In Love With Jesus.

  935. I'm on fire for Jesus. I'm at church all three services

  936. and if you don't like it, you going.

  937. Stay away from me. 50 Cent said you can find me in the club.

  938. Right. Well, you can find me right here

  939. in the church, right? You know where to find the

  940. devil? You know, where to find the

  941. devil. When you go find some, this is

  942. where I'm at on Sunday. This is holy day, this is my

  943. day. Well, I'm just going to submerge

  944. myself in God. One, two, three services.

  945. I'm there, I'm bringing snacks. I want to be around the body.

  946. I want to be around the fire because I want that passion.

  947. So I'ma stick around it. You want to be warm on the beach

  948. and it's cold and there's a fire over there.

  949. What you going to do? You'll stand by the fire.

  950. These people you want day of your life, you got a chance to

  951. be around life and miracles and power, and encouragement, and

  952. you want to give Jesus one little moment because you got,

  953. you got what's your in a world that's about to end up.

  954. And everywhere you go. People need you to invest, you

  955. need to care. The greatest gift, you have.

  956. For your local grocery store is the glory of God.

  957. When you walk in the room, there's something people see.

  958. They cannot explain it. But you dear friend, Say, guard

  959. your heart out of it flows, the issues of life.

  960. I'm not going to have time to get through all these.

  961. Maybe I'll get through one or two.

  962. But harnessing, The Passion of the spirit.

  963. How do we harness The Passion of the spirit?

  964. We see Philippians 2:5. Say let this same mind.

    Philippians 2:5

  965. Being you Romans 8 and 11 says that the same spirit that raised

  966. Jesus from the dead lives in. You second, Peter 1:1 says this.

  967. We have like Precious Faith. Matthew 3:11 says, he's Jesus is

    Matthew 3:11

  968. coming to baptize Us in the spirit and with fire.

  969. Right? So there's a fire a passion for

  970. us to harness as a body of Believers and we're going to

  971. need it in this world. Harnessing it is counting on

  972. God's power through our spiritual disciplines of number

  973. one prayer. How do I harness this passion?

  974. Number one, it's prayer confess and acknowledge.

  975. We see. It says, for tremendous power,

  976. is released through, passionate heartfelt, prayer of a Godly

  977. believer. So when we come together, we're

  978. practicing things like everybody around here.

  979. Just lift your voice to begin to exalt the Lord or begin to pray.

  980. And you might hear me every now and then, say, hey, put some

  981. volume to it, put your gut into it.

  982. You might I've seen the same line over and over.

  983. We might say sing it louder because we're trying to stir up

  984. that fire into that that ember into a flame.

  985. We're not just in here like let's just sing loud.

  986. Let's just be loud. No, we're trying to stir up

  987. passion because that passionate response to God, releases power

  988. into your life. It helps you overcome on Monday,

  989. Tuesday. And then you come back,

  990. Wednesday and start. You don't never let this is why

  991. this, what midweek service do you don't?

  992. Let your flame go out mid, we great when he get about a

  993. quarter tank of gas, you right back at the gas station.

  994. Right? You can pull up, you, you get

  995. your Tesla, you can go pull up to the charger and fall asleep.

  996. And get charged up come to church sleepy but just being in

  997. the room some kind of electricity going to fall on

  998. you. Number two.

  999. The study of God's word. We have the Living Word of God,

  1000. which is full of energy. The word of God is full of

  1001. energy like a to mouth sword. It will even penetrate to the

  1002. very core of our being where Soul and Spirit bone and Marrow

  1003. meets, it interprets and reveals the true thoughts and secret

  1004. motives of our hearts, the word of God.

  1005. David says, I put my word in my heart, your word, in my heart

  1006. that I might not sin against you.

  1007. Write the word is alive and it cuts and it penetrates it goes

  1008. to the depths. Not only does it searches The

  1009. Depths, but the word of God allowed to move and be alive in

  1010. your life produces health. Joy is medicine, k.

  1011. All right. You want healing in your body

  1012. start, laughing more. Start getting around more joy.

  1013. This is why we're a church that say we are going to be

  1014. intentional about celebrating often.

  1015. Number three, meditation. We don't let the devil still

  1016. meditation. You got to church, has its own

  1017. meditation is even, know know who you worship and where your

  1018. heart is turned towards home and meditate on his word.

  1019. Meditate on what God's he says, meditate on it day and night

  1020. for, then you shall make your own way prosperous.

  1021. There's something that's produced inside of you.

  1022. When you meditate on the word, Number for faith.

  1023. He says without faith. It's impossible to please God,

  1024. that's Hebrews. But this says, how could this

  1025. kind of Faith, save anybody? What kind of Faith a faith?

  1026. That's dead faith without works is dead.

  1027. Passion is produced when you take a step or a leap and find

  1028. out, God is, it's like that buzzer beater.

  1029. You just throw up in the air and it's just like.

  1030. And then when it Go in, what happens, passion is released in

  1031. the stadium. But that shot that I just took

  1032. at the buzzer is a gamble, but when it Go in, or when somebody

  1033. a whistle is blown and somebody just throw up a shock like this

  1034. and it go in and people go. This is just what he said.

  1035. Passion is released when you step out on faith, but what

  1036. happens if I hold the ball? I don't give the opportunity for

  1037. a while. But let me just shoot it just in

  1038. case and then it goes in. And then what happens, there's

  1039. this experience that takes place because I chose to shoot it.

  1040. Let me help you out start shooting.

  1041. Stop holding back your confidence.

  1042. I know it's scary but shoot it. Obedience.

  1043. Probably pick up here next week because I got a few scriptures

  1044. for obedience. How does obedience produce

  1045. passion me? One of these scriptures?

  1046. Where did you go? If you are willing and obedient

  1047. you shall Isaiah 1:19, you shall eat the good of land.

    Isaiah 1:19

  1048. That there is blessing stored up for obedient people.

  1049. But if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword

  1050. for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.

  1051. Rebellion does not lead to anywhere but destruction and

  1052. then we have holiness. I just turned it all turned out,

  1053. we'd be done in five minutes. We be done in 5 minutes.

  1054. Did you smack your lips? Amen, they don't fall off.

  1055. They going to fall off. Holiness.

  1056. God is calling his church to holiness.

  1057. Because he is, Holy. We've made holiness.

  1058. Scary. You not holy because your whole

  1059. body is covered up. You not holy because you don't

  1060. listen to secular music. You not holy.

  1061. Like like that doesn't make you holy because you do a religious

  1062. thing. Right?

  1063. Like that doesn't make you holy but we are set apart for God.

  1064. But you can be sagging in your jeans, is still be holy.

  1065. It's about nature and not performance.

  1066. Holy is a nature. It's not works.

  1067. It's a nature. It says we Are Holy because he

  1068. is Holy, it's a nature, it's our identity, it's our image and

  1069. likeness that makes us holy and will dig into that next week.

  1070. and then, Charisma attic humility.

  1071. And I'll dive into what this mean.

  1072. I don't even know what it means all the way cuz but you know

  1073. it's just something that I felt the Lord was saying it's come to

  1074. something, I have to deal with but I can walk with the Lord.

  1075. As passionate and as Charisma attic as I am.

  1076. And be humble. And I think a lot of people

  1077. don't understand if the fire of God truly hits.

  1078. You is hard to not have charisma.

  1079. You have to deny charisma. But what I feel God is calling

  1080. people of. We're going to carry his fire in

  1081. his glory. You can't be afraid of people.

  1082. That's afraid of your charisma because the fire will cause you

  1083. to have joy to have a boldness to speak up and you can't be

  1084. talked out of it. What?

  1085. I will give you before you go home.

  1086. I need everybody to write these down.

  1087. Don't have scriptures for these. It's just straight up, is what

  1088. it is. I'm about to give you eight.

  1089. I think it's eight passion killers.

  1090. I think somebody don't need to CDs this week.

  1091. Eight passion Killers. Number one is procrastination.

  1092. Some of y'all think way too long.

  1093. Right you ever you ever light a match?

  1094. I think Burna, but light that candle or whatever you turn.

  1095. That fire log or whatever, you're trying to do with that.

  1096. Fire ain't waiting for you too. Procrastination.

  1097. Kills us. When you when that fire is lit,

  1098. you got to take a step momentous fire.

  1099. Right, the Fire doesn't get big because it stays in one place.

  1100. But it moves Then you get around other on fire people and you'll

  1101. Fire gets bigger number two. Inconsistency.

  1102. So I got me, tell you man, to June 2007, the moment I grew up

  1103. in church, okay? We're going to church and

  1104. growing up in church, did not make me.

  1105. Yeah. but in June 2007, when I made my mind up to really follow

  1106. Jesus, We in turn back in, preaching the gospel, and

  1107. studying the word, we've been working on our marriage.

  1108. We've been, you know, cutting things out of our Lives, cutting

  1109. certain vocabularies. Other words out of our

  1110. vocabulary, like it takes a life, long commitment and

  1111. consistency to get where the greats are like, you.

  1112. Look at LeBron, you look at Kobe.

  1113. Look at these great spin. They've been playing that sport

  1114. all day life. You don't get to be like like

  1115. lately, like, you know, it trips me out, but Stephen Curry.

  1116. When you go warm up, the dude is dribbling doing some of the same

  1117. dribbling drills. He been doing since he was a

  1118. kid. That push shot.

  1119. We see why he got so much range. You go back and look at film.

  1120. When his daddy was in the NBA, he was a little kid that was

  1121. pushing the ball. In between timeouts since a

  1122. little kid even doing it. Y'all gonna have to we gon have

  1123. to start and not stop. There's a praise that has to go

  1124. up and not stop. There's a coming together that

  1125. just cannot stop. Anxiousness.

  1126. Kills passion. Anxiousness kills passion.

  1127. Don't turn to it, but I think y'all don't appreciate this next

  1128. one right now. Now you take these and you go

  1129. meditate on this week and if any of them witness to you kick them

  1130. out. But this next one is really big

  1131. passionless company. Some of y'all hang around some

  1132. people that don't got no passion.

  1133. Shallow thinking shallow dreams. Don't want too much in life.

  1134. What you doing today? None chilling.

  1135. I'm just chilling. You feel me next time?

  1136. Say, no. I'm out.

  1137. I'm full of with you. No more.

  1138. The next one. Complaining, please do not show

  1139. Fe or any people with hoods on on social media because it's

  1140. going to look like we just really freezing people out.

  1141. It don't make no sense. Come on like please.

  1142. O, magnify the cold with me. Oh my God.

  1143. All right. Next one complaining.

  1144. Okay, we're gonna get out of here at Super Quick Way quicker

  1145. than what y'all think. Watch what watch this, watch

  1146. this. I mean India tonight on a quick

  1147. watch complaining. The next one.

  1148. What? Kills passion is

  1149. people-pleasing. Amen.

  1150. Now, I got to be very careful because when people read this,

  1151. it rebellious Spirit comes up in some people.

  1152. This does not mean you don't listen to nobody.

  1153. I'm talking about when you're driven by the fear of, man.

  1154. We'll get into these next week and then compromised conviction.

  1155. When you start doing stuff that you don't really want to do.

  1156. You take that, you know some of y'all got businesses, right?

  1157. You take that client. And the whole party.

  1158. You like home. You go to that coffee meeting on

  1159. the way, they are, you calling the people?

  1160. You really want to hang out with you?

  1161. I, yeah, I'm about to go to this meeting, please.

  1162. Please pray for me. or you said it up, call me at 9:05 I'm going

  1163. to put you on speaker and you just gone.

  1164. And the last one. Is fear. fear kills, passion and

  1165. sometimes fear will cause passion for something that was

  1166. not God's plan for your life to be birth.

  1167. Or close with this. This is relying on the Holy

  1168. Spirit to daily deal a death, blow to My Flesh and its

  1169. activities in my life. To have faith in God.

  1170. Is key to reliving or Reviving our spiritual passion.
