Life Conference 2021 (Sunday) - Bishop Tony Kemp (February 7, 2021) | Life Bible Church

First, I give reverence to you, righteous Father,

reverence to you, King Jesus, and reverence to

you, Holy Spirit. Let's give honor to Pastor

Brad and his precious wife. And let's give another

hand clap to all of the staff and all the people

who made this. And then give a hand clap for

your neighbor. Now, allow me to ask for some

information. And if this happens to be you, I

would like it if you'd raise your hand if this

applies to you. Do I have anybody here who has

a foreign substance in your body? Metal or plastic

or cobalt or... Titanium, and it causes you discomfort

or pain. Is there anybody here? So I'm seeing

one, two, three, four, five. You're standing

because it's six, seven. I don't see anybody

over, no. Seven, eight. Okay, thank you for helping

me. Okay. So, okay, very good. At some point,

I want to pray for you. But first, I got to teach,

right? Right? Okay, so if you'll put up on the

screen for me, Luke chapter 8, verse 45. And

Luke 8:45

the first miracle would be, I could speak for

like 15 minutes. That's a miracle. And you ready?

I'm only going to take one phrase of this. And

Jesus said, who touched me? So I was in Amarillo.

I had been sleeping, but I'm not sure if I was

awake or asleep when this thing happened. And

there was this phrase. And it was touching the

infinite. And I knew that the infinite was God

himself, the Lord Jesus Christ. And instantly,

I knew that there were four things to touch Jesus.

One, and you can put this up on the screen too.

Would be Luke 3 and 8. Pick any version you want.

Therefore bear fruit worthy of repentance. Look

at somebody and say, produce fruit worthy of

repentance. Now, you know, it's crazy here. This

was John the Baptist. And the scripture says

something very interesting after John the Baptist

preached repentance. The scripture then says,

then came Jesus. Repentance, very simply, metanoi

means to change your mind. In fact, just real

quick, put up Acts chapter three, verse 19, where

Peter, the apostle, is preaching, and he says,

repent, therefore, and be converted. The Greek

word converted is epistrapo. It's a military

word. Actually, It means to make an about face.

So you change your mind, and then you change

your behavior based upon what Jesus has said.

Look at somebody that said, this touches Jesus.

In fact, that your sins may be blotted out, that

not chronos times, calendar time, day of the

week, day of the month, but kairos times, which

is a time. characterized by the hand or the thumbprint

of God, the finger of God, shall come and it

shall refresh, it will renew, it will revive,

it will restore, and it comes from the manifest

presence of God, the localized presence, the

presence of God in your heart, the presence of

God in your mind, or the presence of God in your

body. Okay? So let me just mention this in passing

because it sort of fits. This happened when I

was actually in Amarillo, but... I had another

experience. I was in, I'm pretty sure it was

either Monroe or West Monroe, Louisiana. It's,

you know, where that. And so I'm at the house

of one of my spiritual sons. His name is Tom

Jones, not the singer. So I'm sitting there praying

and an angel comes to me. And so he appears and

he says, you have to preach repentance. Okay.

And then he also told me, he said, you have to

preach holiness. And so, you know, everybody

say repentance touches Jesus. Second thing. A

very familiar passage of scripture, Romans chapter

Romans 10 · chapter mention

10, verse nine. You know what I'm really talking

about, right? is how to keep the fire burning.

If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus

and believe in your heart God's raised him from

the dead, you shall be saved. So when you walk

under the lordship of Jesus, by saying the word

and doing the word, look at somebody say, it

keeps the fire burning. So repentance will always

lead to surrender to the kingship and lordship

of Jesus Christ. Number three. Anything that

generates doubt in your life that you're not

sure about. whether it's okay with God or not,

get rid of it. If it generates doubt in your

life, whether it's okay or not, look at somebody

and say, put it away. And number four, and this,

I will also have them put up. And you'll know

the scripture. It's the book of Romans chapter

eight. And that's verse 14. As many as are led

by the spirit of God, they're the sons of God.

Look at somebody and say, be led by the spirit.

Look at somebody else and say, walk in the spirit.

Everybody say, live in the spirit. So it's a

four point message. if you want to touch Jesus.

Bring reduced fruit in keeping with repentance.

Let what you're thinking, saying, and doing be

under the kingship and lordship of Jesus Christ.

Anything that creates doubt in your life, that

gets in the way of your faith, because whatever's

not a faith is sin. Get rid of it. And four,

be led by the Holy Spirit. By the way, if you

are... To go into the Greek on this, it has to

do with the picture. If you had an animal and

you put a rope around his neck, you let him and

he would follow. But also it has to do with you

saying no to the works of the flesh and being

surrendering to the Holy Spirit, learning how

to yield to the Holy Spirit. Now, on a practical

level, first of all, that's in my relationship

with the Father and Jesus. when you're led by

the Spirit, everybody say, that's holiness. Right?

So, because, everybody say, you need some more

repentance. You definitely need to be more holy.

So, after the angel leaves, talking to me about

repentance. And I'm not giving you the, because

you know, the full deal. Talks about repentance

and talks about holiness. He leaves. Then Jesus

comes. Isn't that funny? Everybody say repentance.

Holiness. And the appearance of Jesus. I'm talking

about how you can get Jesus to really appear

in your heart and your life. So when Jesus appears,

he appears as a man, skin tone of somebody from

the Middle East, chocolate brown hair falling

on shoulders, chocolate brown mustache and beard,

white robe. And he starts talking to me. And

his comments are very brief because he's like

really direct to the point. And he says, I quote,

I've given you the power and the authority to

follow me. Then he says, if. you will follow

me. You will become like me in life. Then he

says, if you become like me in life, you will

become like me in ministry. And then just like

that, he's gone. Well, Gospel of John chapter

one, verse 12, if you'll put that up for me.

Let's examine if that visitation was biblical

and true and accurate. Gospel of John, as many

as received Jesus, to them he gave the right

or the exousia, however you want to say it, who

cares? It is the authority to become a child

of God, to believe in his name. Okay, so, and

again, who were born, not of blood, nor the will

of flesh, nor the will of man. Your human spirit's

born of God. Okay, so there's the authority.

Then you have Acts 1 and 8. You know this, but

I still have to say it. Acts 1 and 8. As Jesus

said, I've given you the power and the authority

to follow me, and the power comes from the authority.

So you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit's

come upon you, and you shall be a martyr to me

in Jerusalem, all Judea, Samaria, to the ends

of the earth. Huh, very interesting. Let's do

1 Peter 2 .21. Look at what somebody said, because

it's all about Jesus. To this you were called,

because Christ also suffered for you, leaving

you an example that you should what? Follow in

his. The Greek word here, for example, is the

word hupo gramos. Everybody say hupo gramos.

Very interesting word because here's the word

picture. You have a teacher with his disciples

and he's writing the letters of the Hebrew alphabet.

He's writing the word of the Lord from right

to left. And each disciple is trying to write

each letter of the Hebrew alphabet, each letter

of the word of the Lord as near to and as exactly

like the teacher as possible. Look at somebody

and say, Jesus is the teacher. You're the disciple.

Jesus wrote the word of the Father by the way

he lived, through the Spirit, and you are to

follow Jesus' steps. So just like Jesus followed

the word of the Father, you are to follow the

word of Jesus, and that's what it means to follow

in his steps to become like him in life. This

is what touches Jesus. Matthew 28. Oh, let's

go with verse 18. Look at somebody say, he's

almost done. I've only been going for how many

minutes? Everybody keep track. That's a miracle.

And my wife says, the preacher's long -winded.

And my wife is right back there. She slipped

in. Let's give her a big hand clap. And Jesus

came and spoke to them saying, all authority

has been given to me in heaven and earth. Next

verse. Go therefore and make disciples of the

nations. baptizing them in the name of the Father,

Son, and Holy Spirit, next verse, teaching them

to observe all things I've commanded you, lo,

I'm with you to the end of the age. Go make disciples.

Go teach the nations. Greek word, teach or disciple.

Everybody say, math teyuhu. Math teyuhu. Everybody

say, math teyuhu. Math teyuhu. What's interesting

about this word, is it actually means to walk

with a teacher until you learn how to think like

the teacher, talk like the teacher, act like

the teacher. You know. So from Genesis to Revelation,

and by all this in between, I want to walk with

the teacher by the written word of God, by the

voice of the Father, through the person, presence,

and power of the Holy Spirit, hearing and obeying

the word of the Father. I want to walk with Jesus

until I learn how to think like Jesus, talk like

Jesus, act like Jesus, in some way have a Jesus

life. and in some way have a Jesus ministry.

It's going to take the fire of God burning. Day

and night. So, it means I have to make this decision

each day. This is why Paul said, I die daily.

This is why Jesus said in Luke 9, 23, might as

well go ahead and put it up. Luke 9, 23. Oh,

and you know, I don't know if you guys could

do this or not, but. Last night I taught on how

to increase your spiritual perception. Actually,

this is part two. Everybody say repentance. Holiness.

Following Jesus. Touching Jesus. Repentance.

Lordship of Jesus. Whatever is doubtful, put

it away. Obey the Holy Ghost. Jesus said, if

anyone desires to come after me, let him deny

himself. Take up his cross daily. And what? Follow

him. So this is the call. So I thought I'd follow

Jesus to Eugene, Oregon. So now, how many people

again have the metal in your body? Wave at me.

Wave, gotta wave. Okay, good. I'm gonna pray

for you right now. Is that all right? Okay, here's

what I want you to do. As soon as the pain starts

to decrease, stand on your feet. When I pray

for you, don't pray. When you're praying, you're

transmitting, you're not receiving. I want you

to receive. To the women I say, praying in your

head is still praying. Brothers, you just go

into your nothing box, you know where it's at.

Saying thank you, Jesus, is still praying. Kodadabasita

is still praying. I don't want you to do any

of that. I just want you to listen to my prayer

and pay attention as pain or discomfort decreases.

Real quick testimonies. Let's go to the creative.

Oh, that's interesting. Okay, I get that. So

I'm in Michigan. A man thought he was going to

have his arm amputated. He didn't, but his last

two fingers were artificial. Jesus changes the

last two fingers that were artificial into real

fingers, and he's able to move them. I'm in Branson,

Missouri. A woman has a glass eye. Jesus turns

the glass eye into a real eye in her socket,

and she's able to see. I'm doing a meeting at

a Baptist church. It was a Holy Ghost Baptist

church. A man was there. He had metal in his

knee. When he would go through security, it would

go off. He was in pain. Jesus touches him. The

pain is gone. The metal's gone. He goes through

security. It doesn't go off anymore. A woman

who had metal in both ankles, she loved to skate,

couldn't skate because of the metal. And also,

she would go through security. It would go off.

Metal's gone. Pain's gone. Goes to security,

doesn't go off. This is strange. Woman had metal

in this part of her body. It disappeared. This

is crazy. One woman had metal in her body, and

when God melts the metal, you can see the smoke

coming out of her back. That was wild. See, I

don't know how far you want to go. And a man

got shot. His back opens up. The bullet comes

out, falls on the floor. And his back comes back

together. I can go on and on and on. Woman had

metal from here to here. Her name was Renee.

It was in Arkansas. Her arm was four inches short.

It grows out four inches in front of everybody.

The metal, her goal was to pick up a pot. The

metal from here to here turns into bone. She

goes to see her doctor. Her doctor examines her,

finds out the metal had become bone. Her doctor

actually comes to the church to see me. Because

there was another woman under the same doctor's

care who had sugar diabetes, which disappeared,

and she had cancer inside. This is the only time

I've ever seen God do it this way. She had cancer

inside of her growth. God let the growth, but

took the cancer out. So the doctor comes to see

me. We're doing a healing service. So, you know,

because I'm crazy, I have her examine people

before I pray and have her stay with me while

God does miracles. And then she says to the pastor,

you made a believer out of me. So here's the

deal. If I can get you to relax and receive Jesus

as your healer, now listen to me carefully, this

part. In the very same way you receive Jesus

as your Lord and Savior, by faith, receive him

as your healer and your miracle worker. Relax.

Just start looking for the pain to go away when

I pray. Because what's going to happen is God's

going to suspend time. He's going to break the

law of physics. Your miracle's going to drop

in. Your pain starts to decrease. You stand up

to say, Lord, you're doing it now. Then your

pain goes to zero. And then you got a miracle.

And we're all happy. And we're done by 1045.

In 10 minutes. It's not hard. Don't try to figure

it out. Just chill. You ready? Okay, bow your

heads, everyone. Those of you with the medal,

in the name of the Lord Jesus, I suspend time.

I take authority over the law of physics. Lord

Jesus, you said, where the word of the king is,

there's authority. A king can delete a law, change

a law, or create a law. I delete the law that

that metal has to stay in that person's body.

I command that metal to become bone now. I command

bone to be created now. I command the pain and

the reason for the pain die, dissipate, disappear

from that person's body. Now. Because Jesus,

you're the healer and Jesus, you're the miracle

worker. I thank you, Jesus. I thank you, Father,

for doing it right now. As soon as you feel pain

starting to decrease, stand up. Don't wait till

it's all gone. When it's all gone or 80 % gone,

the pain, come up to the front. Jesus is doing

it. As soon as you feel pain decreasing, stand.

When it's 80 % gone, come up to the front. The

rest of you can praise the Lord while he's doing

this miracle. And if it's 100 % gone, you can

come up too. 80 % gone, just come up. Come over

this way. Stand over there. While she testifies,

something's going to happen. Watch. No, no, no.

Don't worry. You hadn't met her where? First

of all, what's your first name? Ashley. Where

do you go to church? I can't assume anything.

How much metal did you have? Just on my clavicle,

just one plate. One plate. How long? I can't

do math. You have a husband? Make him come up

here. She said she can't do math. How long has

she had to play? Ten years. I know it's a moment.

No, no, no. Don't apologize. I play with people

because I'm a child. Did it hurt? Sometimes,

all the time, some discomfort. Now, I know when

we're dealing with chronic pain, after a while,

you kind of get used to it, right? So you have

mild, moderate, severe. So how would you have

described it? Pretty often. So were you feeling

discomfort this morning? It's usually just when

I touch it. Okay, so what happened? Well, when

you brought it up, I... I don't pay attention

to it anymore, so I wasn't thinking about it.

And then when you brought it up, I kind of scratched

it. And when I scratch it, it feels like pins

and needles. So I was like, okay, I'll raise

my hand, not thinking that I would stand up in

front of everybody. And I really didn't think

it was going to happen, to be quite honest, because

I know there's people who really do feel like

much more discomfort than me. So I thought, okay.

Then you started praying, and I just was accepting

it. And when you said, well, what is 80 %? You

know, stand up. I'm like, okay, I'll just scratch

it and see if it's still tingling. And it doesn't

hurt at all. It doesn't hurt at all. It doesn't

hurt at all. It doesn't feel like pins and needles.

It feels like I'm scratching skin. Well, have

you felt it before? Your job is to feel it now.

You're not a boyfriend, are you? I just wanted

to make sure you were the husband. Those of you

who attended the weekend, how many of y 'all

remember the joke, right? Honest opinion, how's

it feel? Same as that side. No, it doesn't feel

the same to you. You still feel it, but you don't

feel it doesn't hurt. Okay. Don't let, listen,

so I'm in Missouri, right? A woman has metal

from here to here and she's in pain for seven

years. Here's what's crazy. She couldn't do this.

She says, the pain's gone. I still feel the metal,

but she could do this with no pain. A man walks

out of the congregation and says, that's a miracle.

I said, oh yeah? Why you say? Because I'm a doctor

and that's my patient and it's impossible for

her to do this. So here's my question. What's

the greater miracle? God turning the metal to

bone or making the metal act like bone? I don't

know, don't care. At the church, go see my wife.

Bye -bye. Anybody else? You're at 80 % or 90

or 100. Come quickly, because we only got two

minutes. Come, woman. Ready? First name? Lana.

You had metal where? I have metal in my neck,

and I also have metal in plates and screws in

my leg. You're all screwed up. Is that what you're

trying to tell me? How many screws do you have?

I have probably about eight or nine. Okay, how

long? About 11 years. And you had discomfort

neck and foot or just? Mostly the leg. Mostly

the leg is, yeah. So what has happened? Well,

I can move my ankle around and it doesn't hurt

anywhere right now. You couldn't do that before?

I could move. But not without pain? But not without

pain, yeah. So that's the miracle. So did you

feel for the medal? Why don't you do that now?

And give an honest report whether you still feel

the medal or not. If you do, it doesn't make

any difference because now you can move it as

if it were both. So I've seen both. I don't feel

like the screws prominently, usually. I can feel

the tops of the screws, but I'm not really feeling

it. You should try harder. Try harder, woman.

I'm running out of time. I feel kind of puffy,

like there's usually puffy, but I'm not feeling

the heads of the screws like I normally do. You've

got issues. I think you have a miracle. How's

your neck? I'm not sure. It moves. Now, who knows

this woman really well? Does anybody here know

this woman? Who are you? Come here, son. Hurry

up. Man, we got to get this done. Hurry up, son.

Man, can't you move faster than that, bro? Did

you have limited mobility with your... Don't

stand right here. There you go. Did you have

limited mobility with your neck? I have some

limited where I can't turn as far as some people

can. Turn? I can move a little bit more than

I used to. Did you have pain or discomfort before?

I always have some pain, usually, but there's...

And now? There's less pain. Oh, good. That means

God's doing something. It's going to go to zero.

You ready? All right. You know about this? About

the pain in the neck and the... That didn't sound

right, did it? Yeah, I know about the pain in

the neck. That just didn't quite come out right.

It's been that kind of weekend. Jesus, you told

me, you said, with your hands, you'll heal. So

let it be done. Finish it to zero in Jesus' name,

Father. See you later, bye. Mama. Boy, I tell

you, they fixed me some food that I have to recover

from. Hanama Shandai. Okay, let's get back to

the... You had metal, Mom? I have artificial

hip. Which one? For how long have you had it?

I had it replaced nine years ago. Did you have

discomfort with it? Yes, and I still do. And

you still do. What's the percentage? Ten being

the level of discomfort and zero being none,

what number would you give it? Right at this

second. Right at this second, I would say it's

about 50 % better than it was. Oh, give me your

hand, mama. Can we pray for mama real quick?

Now we have to quit in two minutes. I'm just

giving it two minutes. That's all I'm giving

it. I'm already over the... Father, you're already

doing it. No praying, mama. No praying in your

head, mama. What happens is, as you pray, you

actually slow it. Just by experience. I command

this hip to be whole. and the pain to go to zero

in Jesus' name. All right, mama, you go and get

100 % well. Come. You coming? All right, real

quick. First name? Ken. What was the problem?

How long had you had it? I've had it about 12,

15 years. I fell off a ladder. I've done stupid

things in my life, but I've got a six -inch plate,

nine screws in my foot. Left. discomfort or pain?

Now it only hurts when I walk a long distance

and I like to walk, so. So what has happened?

What can you tell has happened? I felt a lot

of heat in there and before you were talking

about metal becoming bone, I said, Lord, can

you just turn the metal into bone? Before I start

talking about it. I'm up here by faith knowing

that I'm going to be completely healed. Amen.

Did you have any mobility problems? I did for

a while, yeah. I couldn't walk. I was in a wheelchair

for... Okay. So, Father, you already released

the fire of the miracle of healing. And Jesus,

bring it to completion. And I thank you, Lord,

God is done. And everybody said? Come on, let's

give God a hand clap. Or call us at 541 -995
