Sunday Message - Pastor Danny Bonilla (September 30, 2012) | Life Bible Church

But it's been two weeks since I've been out of

the pulpit. It's been a great time of refreshing.

And then Friday afternoon, as I had been studying

for this weekend, I received a call from Bob

Isabel, one of our covering elders. You remember

beautiful Bobby. Hallelujah. We love him here.

And Bobby called me and said, hey, just had lunch

with Danny and Giselle. They just flew in from

Peru. And you had them last year at your anniversary

service. Would you like to have them in again?

And so I said, well, let me find out. We talked

to the elders, and we talked about it. I said,

you know, this has just gotta be a blessing from

the Lord. So we said, yes, come on down. And

so they came down yesterday after an apostolic

meeting in Portland, and we're thrilled to have

Danny and Giselle Bonilla here with us again.

Would you welcome them as they come this morning?

Come on, give a Big Life Bible welcome. To our

friends, Danny and Giselle Bonilla, come and

just greet the churches one more time. Hallelujah.

Hallelujah. What a privilege it is to be back.

this house and see what God has been doing and

the growth because we've been in three services

to now makes three services and it's it's just

growing it's awesome but I shared with the earlier

service one of my favorite scriptures unless

the Lord builds the house everything that we

do we do in vain and god wants to build this

house and god wants to bring this house into

another level and i i've been hearing all weekend

how god wants to bring this house to another

level and i just want to um i first spoke to

the wives not going to speak to the men just

an encouraging word men And this is a shout out

for the women's conferences. I am an advocate

of women's conferences. I love women's ministry.

And if you want to see your house built, men,

take out time and give your wife some time so

they could come out to this women's conference.

Let me tell you, when women are happy, your house

is happy. You're not you're not gonna go around

you're gonna come back and they're gonna come

excuse me They're gonna come back and you you're

gonna be excited because they're gonna be excited.

They're gonna be transformed They're gonna be

minister to they're gonna be pampered and guess

what if they're pampered you're gonna become

pampered That's the thing Let your wife go make

a way for them to go women Let me tell you if

you want to build your house if you want to make

you know when the Lord says um unless the lord

builds the house what is he building walls no

he's building us we're the walls we are the house

and god wants to build us strong for our children

and our next generations to come and god wants

to put in us strength and capability there is

a valley that needs to be changed there is a

valley that needs jesus But unless we're changed,

unless we're ministered to, the outside won't

be ministered to. So I just want to give you,

encouraging you and tell you, men, send your

wife to this woman's conference. The woman that's

coming to minister, I don't know, maybe some

of you know her very well because she's the mother

in this house too. But for those that don't know,

Sharon DiMazio is a woman of God. She is a woman

that has been through, she's adopted children,

she's had children, and she's a woman of a pastor

of I don't know how many, is it like 3 ,000 people

they have in the church? 6 ,000, look at that.

She's a mama. And don't let her young facade,

you know what? She's a mother. She's a mother

in Israel. And God has used this woman to help

a great man to shepherd many. Sheep or many pastors

so I'm telling you if you give time to this women

You are going to bless and I'm not I don't want

to take any more time. Anyway, God bless you.

I love you guys Thank you Praise God, that's

my wife 38 years. I've been hearing it. You might

as well hear it. Hallelujah She's the woman of

my youth we met in high school and fell in love

in our last year of high school and began to

serve the Lord of revival was breaking out in

our high school and my wife just joined me in

ministry as we touched many lives and young people

who today we have the privilege of Overseeing

in the ministry because many of them are pastoring

churches around the world And I have the awesome

honor to pastor those young people who we laid

hands on. They were just young men like we were

and young women who today have great churches

and have built the kingdom of God and extended

the kingdom of God. But I've been hearing her

speak and sing. She would sing in the high school

and I would preach and it's been that way for

38 years. She sings, I preach and at home she

preaches and I sing. But we just... have built

a relationship. We're gonna do this together.

We're one as a married couple. You know, it's

the only place where one plus one equals one.

It's your marriage. And it's the only divine

place where you have to be one in everything.

You have to be one in the Lord, in ministry,

in the call of God. There's not such a thing

as somebody in marriage being called separate

from their wife to do the work of ministry. You're

both together. You're a team. And you should

do that together. We're doing it together for

38 years now from high school. To the nations

of the earth and we're traveling for God enjoying

it We've raised our kids at the altars of God

We understood at a very young age coming from

a rough background because I like Nick I was

saved right out of that same mess of trouble

in my life I was an alcoholic at the age of 17

and totally gone wasted an outcast from society

Jesus came and rescued my life and transformed

me. So when I hear guys like Nick I get stirred

up because I know and I prophesied him in the

first service day Saturday night that makes one

of the sons of this house gonna touch the nations

of the earth God takes people like make and raises

him up To touch the nations of the earth and

in this house It's gonna be your job to mentor

him groove him and a cause all of the things

that he might be lacking in his life Thank God

and it's great to hear that he feels he's got

a family now. Can you give the Lord a hand? You

are his family. You're the family of God It's

our God who puts us solitary in families to see

them change without the family of God I would

not be here I would not be in the ministry today

a good pastor who told me He saw me so radical

for God when I first got saved and he said slow

down son Because it's not speed that counts his

resistance It's you're gonna be able you're gonna

have to be able to run the distance of your journey

And he began to speak into my life some wisdom

and it took me a while to slow down But I learned

wisdom from him and that's kept me all my life

In the last years of his ministry I pastored

him and it was an awesome honor to pastor my

first pastor and to serve him and To tell him

speed up now speed up We got work to do And it

was it's been a great life and a great journey

in God and like Nick I was very loved by the

police force in my city I had one particular

policeman who chased me all through my youth

days and trying to really Trying to get me straight

his intentions were right my intentions were

wrong But when I got saved I led two young ladies

to Christ who got so excited They took me to

their house so I could leave their parents. The

mother was the only one home So we prayed with

the mom and I was just recently saved but I was

speaking the Word of God and Witnessing to everything

that moves so we led her to Christ and in this

living room. We're praying and as we're praying

this to this woman into the very Very introduction

to Christ Jesus. She gives a light to Lord We're

all crying of course moved by the Holy Spirit

of presence of God is all over the living room.

Oh the door flings open And guess whose house

I'm in? The police officer that had chased me

all through my youth. And the look on his face

was not a happy one. He was confused, what is

this criminal doing in my living room holding

my wife and my kids' hands? But he soon found

out it was God. You cannot resist the presence

of God. So he bowed his knees and received Jesus

Christ as his Lord and his life was changed.

Would you give the Lord a hand? He only can do

it. I didn't know what I was doing. I was just

as shocked as everybody. And I was thankful that

He didn't pull the gun out and shoot me, but

that He actually got saved. I'll be thankful

for the rest of my life for that one. But like

that, God spares us, puts us into families and

causes families to be saved. God's into families.

Can you say amen? We just got back, my wife and

I have been traveling for 12 weeks straight and

we just got back from Peru. We spent two weeks

in the nation of Peru and we spent it speaking

to families. We spent it in a conference call

saving the family. And it's all about fighting

the front lines for the family, the sanctity

of the family. Fighting against pornography over

children. Fighting against the actual consent

age that some of the nations of the world have

actually established, like in Spain, the age

of consent. consentment for a young person 12

years of age. We're fighting in every front with

pastors against Child trafficking and and the

selling of organs of our children around the

world and we're believing God to save families

We've got leaders coming from all over the world.

It's probably one of the greatest conferences

I've ever been to 18 ,000 people were touched

by the word of the Lord in two and a half weeks

The Lord did a wonderful thing. Families were

change and transform all over Peru and all over

over different parts of the world, this message

is going out because God's into saving families.

Can you say amen? So it's a wonderful thing to

come to a house that has a family anointing on

it, that has a place where people can call home

people who did not have a place to be, a place

of safety like Nick testified. He's found a place

of safety. He's found a place that he can call

home. And would you give God a big hand for the

many nicks that will get saved in this house,

transform and change. As we get started, I had

the awesome privilege also, my wife and I, to

be with you on your 10th anniversary. It was

an awesome time, and we walked away being with

you for the first time in your church with a

tremendous feeling, talking about you to everyone

we knew. About the awesome presence of God, I

think you have one of the most wonderful worships

in the world. I think this church has an incredible

anointing for worship and the presence of God.

How many can thank God for the worship teams,

the worship ministry of this house? And of course

that comes from some singing pastors who have

a mantle of a song of the Lord on them, a prophetic

call on their lives, and they're mentoring you

with that which God has put on them. The ability

to prophesy the song of the Lord, usher in the

voice of the Lord in the midst of the congregation.

Can you give now a hand to the Lord for your

pastors? Tell the Lord how much you appreciate

Pastor Jan and Brad in this house. It's wonderful

to hear the ministry of music with such cunningness

in the house of God. And I kid you not, we travel

around the world. This is some of the best worship

we've enjoyed in the presence of God. And to

watch people. Just have the freedom to come to

the altar. The altar is the place where the lost

get found and the found get lost. And we can

spend time in God. I love the way you wait on

God. The way you're not in a rush to worship

God. And that is being lost in our generation.

People want to have quick services and give God

the least amount of praise that they can possibly

get away with. But you are giving Him more. Amen?

More than what others are giving Him. You're

giving Him all the honor and all the praise.

And he's certainly worthy of it. Can you say

amen look at somebody and say he's worthy of

all the praise Hallelujah Listen in Isaiah chapter

Isaiah 41 · chapter mention

41. It was a prophet Isaiah who prophesied about

people like you he prophesied about lands like

the one you live in When he said these words

God speaking through him. I will open rivers

and desolate Heights and fountains in the midst

of valleys, and I will make the wilderness a

pool of water, and the dry land springs of water."

The valleys, in the midst of the valleys, and

you are a church in the midst of a valley. In

the midst of valley God has said from the inception

of this church that you would be a fountain,

that you would be a place that would have springs

of living water. That people would come and be

able to drink of that water and get refreshed

and I believe the word of the Lord over you I

want to attest to that word you are a source

of the waters of heaven to flow into this valley

and Saturate this land waters of healing we sang

about today are flowing through this place God's

Announcement to this house that out of this house

will flow waters That will heal families heal

lives heal people have you been touched? by the

waters that flow in this house. You raise your

hand and say, that's me. You're talking about

me. My marriage was healed. My life was healed.

Come on, give it up to God. Give him another

praise in this house. Proverbs chapter 16 verse

Proverbs 16:22

22. It says, understanding is a wellspring of

life. To him who has it. To him who has understanding

it becomes a well spring of life Proverbs 18

Proverbs 18:4

verse 4 the words of a man's mouth are deep Waters

somebody say deep Deep waters the well spring

of wisdom is a flowing brook And I believe that

in this house. There is wisdom in this house.

There's been a well spring of wisdom A flowing

brook that God's bringing to you. For 11 years

you've enjoyed your journey in God. You've watched

God continue to perfect this church, continue

to take you deeper and stronger into the ministry

and into the call of God. You have been on a

journey for 11 years. A journey on how to become

that church that God spoke to you in the beginning.

A place where waters would have to flow in the

valley. A place that would cause water to come

to dry places. Said about you you've been practicing

for 11 years and it's not over yet. Can you say

amen? The best is still to come. Can you say

amen? I've heard about the songs and the annoying

thing that's come on the church to write songs

I believe the music of this house is going to

be published around the world and your people

are all over the nations They'll translate it

to other languages and the songs that are birthed

in your worship service are going to be sung

in other places And they're gonna cause springs

and brooks of waters to be open in different

lands and dry places Because of the worship of

this house because of what you've been called

and what you are obeying God in You're going

to change your world. Look at somebody and say

we're called to touch the world We're called

to change the world It's not a coincidence that

you have a globe in the middle of a life Bible

Church It's because God's called you to touch

the nations of the earth right from this valley

Right from where other people thought what will

they possibly do in that place? That's where

God said watch me and see I'll touch the nations

of the earth right from that place Are you ready

to train your sons and daughters? to touch the

nations of the earth I just talked to a couple

that's heading out for Asia to touch orphan children

and minister to children in need I believe that

that's the great call of God to touch people's

lives and to get out to people who are hurting

and who are lacking families and to bring the

goods of the kingdom to them well God has given

you wisdom has given you an anointing to bring

the river to bring the waters to this land Psalm

84 Psalm 84 verse 5 and 6 speaks about the people

Psalms 84:5

of God It says blessed is the man whose strength

is in you Whose heart is set on a pilgrimage

or journey? Heart is set on a journey on a pilgrimage

as they pass through the valley of Baca the valley

of suffering the valley of weeping That's what

that means the valley of Baca. They make it a

spring The rains also cover it with pools somebody

say they They make it look at somebody and say

it's up to us It's our responsibility And then

as we pass through as we're in the journey that

God takes us to we're supposed to change the

atmosphere we're supposed to change dry places

into saturated places of the presence of God

where water is going to flow again as they pass

through the valley of suffering you might be

going through your own stuff but in the middle

of it God says I'm letting you go through it

so you learn something about how I can bring

up my miraculous power at work in your life and

change the atmosphere. You're called to move

ahead, to press on, to occupy with the supernatural

power of God. Somebody say there's power in this

house. There's authority in this house. We can

change the world we live in. Can you say amen?

Come on, can you say it again? We can change.

Get this in your spirit. You're a world changer.

You can change your community. You can change

your family. You can change the life of your

children. You can change the world. But there

is a starting point for everything. And you have

started, 11 years ago, this started, with people

that got together and believed that God could

use them. And the word of the Lord came. It was

your commencement and every year since then you've

celebrated up to now 11 anniversaries and every

one of those places Every one of those years

accomplishes led you to a new place to a new

starting point because when you think you've

Reached the finish line and God he moves the

finish line. I Want you to look at somebody and

say this is a starting point It's another starting

point for this church Numbers chapter 33 Speaks

Numbers 33 · chapter mention

about how God is interested in us learning about

our starting points so much that He commanded

Moses to record every starting point not the

finishing points not the accomplishments of the

journey But every time God started something

new every time they started again every time

they commenced again Their journey listen to

it in numbers 33 verse 1 and on it says these

Numbers 33:1

are the journeys of the children of Israel The

whole chapter is dedicated to it These are the

journeys of the children of Israel who went out

of the land of Egypt by their armies under the

hand of Moses and Aaron Now Moses wrote down

the starting points of their journeys at the

command of the Lord God commanded him write this

down He didn't command him to write the finishing

points. He commanded him to write the starting

points up Everybody say the starting points And

these are the journeys according to their starting

points. So the journey when God looks at the

journey He looks at it from its starting points.

I think we need to be like God We need to look

at the journey from our starting points God wants

us not to look just at our accomplishments because

we're bound to get proud We're bound to get comfortable

and say we've done enough. We've accomplished

enough. This is enough for God I can't sacrifice

anymore. I can't put out anymore. No God doesn't

want you to dwell on everything you've accomplished

praise God for 11 years but this is a new starting

point for this house as you move on to year 12

the number of government and authority in this

house where God will put you on the world map

and you will have a voice to nations of the earth

and your music will be published to go out Listen,

it's a starting point towards that place and

from henceforth every time you come to your anniversary

You need to understand that God will speak to

you. God will send prophets to you I wasn't scheduled

to be here, but I believe God sent me here I

believe God will how God orchestrated my schedule

and all I need to do is obey and say yes I will

go to Harrisburg. I've been in meetings all day

Saturday, but they have a meeting going on I

asked my possible Frank let me really me so I

can go to Harrisburg. He sends his love by the

way. Tell those people I love them. Tell the

pastors I love them. Sharon's going to be here

soon. We believe in the destiny of this house.

We believe enough to obey God and come here,

not just to visit with you, but to bring a deposit

of God. I'm here to stir you up. This is the

third service, but I'm not growing weak. I'm

growing stronger. I'm more crazy than last night.

I'm believing God. to stir you up to become the

people that God has called you to be it's a starting

point and I want to be God's trumpet to let you

know the clouds moving again now you're moving

it deeper you're crying out to God deeper we

want more and God's gonna give you more Exodus

Exodus 15 · chapter mention

chapter 15 Tell us about the journey. I want

to talk to you about five, five steps of the

journey that all of you will have to go through.

Five steps of the journey. Now, listen, you read

Numbers 33, you'll find a whole bunch of starting

points. I want to talk to you about the journey

because part of that journey, that pilgrimage

in God is being able to find water, being able

to get water where there's no water, being able

to actually bring on what's in heaven on earth.

And in Exodus chapter 15, It says that after

Exodus 15 · chapter mention

they came out of Egypt, verse 22 and on it says,

Moses led Israel from the Red Sea onto the wilderness

of shore. And they traveled for three days through

the wilderness. Everybody say three days. Without

finding any water. They got to Marah, but they

couldn't drink the water at Marah. It was bitter.

That's why they called the place Marah, bitter.

And the people complained to Moses, so what are

we supposed to drink? So Moses cried out in prayer

to God. And God pointed him to a stick of wood.

Moses threw it into the water and the water turned

sweet. Somebody say it turned. The water turned

sweet. That's the place, verse 26 is. where God

set up rules and procedures that's where he started

testing them that's where God started educating

them God started shaping their character and

God said if you listen listen obediently to how

God tells you to live in his presence obeying

his commandments and keeping all his laws then

I won't strike you with the diseases that I inflicted

on the Egyptians. I am God, your healer. How

many believe he's our healer? Anybody here been

healed? How many people's hearts been healed

in this place? Emotionally, your mind has been

healed. Your spirit has been healed. God's the

healer. He sends his word out and he heals us.

Listen, but he's saying to Israel, Israel, I'm

testing you. This is where I'm gonna bring you

in. And I've brought you through the wilderness.

I brought you through this journey. Well, God

knew that they were going to come three days

into their journey. God, nothing surprised God.

They were surprised at the bitter waters of Marah,

but not God. God said, I've got a plan already.

I got it taken care of. There's a stick, a dry

stick that nobody has messed with for ages. Everybody

has walked through the waters of Marah. Nobody

is drunk and nobody's on about changing. How

can we change this bitter place into something

sweet? Nobody ever never occurred to anybody

but one man in prayer One moment in prayer one

moment in the presence of God and God could give

you a revelation God can point you to the right

thing you need to change Whatever is wrong in

your life. Come on. Somebody say one moment in

prayer. I So love the prayer life of this church

and it shows up in your presence of presence

of God is in this place because people pray Moses

prayed, what am I going to do with these people?

And God just pointed. God didn't even speak to

him. God just pointed to a stick. Sometimes God

just points. Hello? The answer's right in front

of you. Can't you see it, duh? The stick. Can

you see Moses thinking, stick? Water, bitter

water. What do you want? I can see Moses trying

to discern the mind of God. But he got up, got

the stick and threw it in the water. The Bible

says he threw it in the water. Say, throw this

stick in the water. I believe that stick represents

Calvary in all of our lives. All the bitterness,

the ugliness of our lives all of a sudden is

transformed when you throw Calvary into the picture.

I don't care where you've been, what criminal

you've been, how good you thought you were, full

of pride. Listen, you throw this stick into the

water and everything gets changed. All the bitterness,

all the ugly of your life now begins to count.

That which was bitter that you couldn't take,

all of a sudden becomes something that will refresh

you, strengthen you, and God will use it for

His glory. All of the... all of the ugly experience

of your life will become all in the hand of a

mighty God through the work of Calvary something

that will make you famous and renown your tears

will count for God The wearing and the suffering

you suffered will count for God The losses that

you suffer will count for God the abuses that

you took on up and the scars that discard your

life get ready You throw the stick into the water

and all of a sudden up those scars become stars

Badges of honor and God transform it before you

know it. You're walking like a decorated general

in the kingdom of God Full of badges why because

you suffered much Throw Jesus throw Calvary into

your life. Amen He changes the bitterness around

and you can drink the water That which you could

in stomach all of a sudden makes sense. I know

why God did it I know why I became a widow so

that I can become an instrument of God and Touch

other widows who have lost your hope I know what

God allowed me to do and go through this so I

can save some of the young people Listen, I hope

you understand That one simple revelation from

God can change your world One simple word from

God. He don't even have to speak all he has to

do is point and you've got to figure it out Hello,

are you with me? Well, not too far from him is

the next journey Throws the stick in the water.

Of course, everybody drinks it Somebody say throw

this stick in the water Come on. Look at somebody

say he's preaching at you Throw this stick in

the water Stop drinking bitter waters Stop living

in the bitterness of the past Stop living in

the shame of yesteryears Oh throw the stick in

the water Let it be redeemed. Let it be changed

Exodus 15 27 Verse 27 not too far of that same

chapter. They came to Elima. They came to that

second place They're traveling through the desert.

They came to Elima where there were 12 springs

of water and 12 springs of water in 70 palm trees

They set up camp there by the water everybody

say 12 Springs or 12 wells of water 12 walls

of water I think it's significant of government.

God, the next step after you get your life transformed

and changed, after you understand that God loves

you more, that He loves you so much that He interrupted

your life and He can turn all the ugly out, then

you gotta come to a place where you understand

the rules and procedures that are set by leaders.

Hello? authority in your life there now God begins

to transform and change you and people begin

to mentor you and tell you don't do that and

don't do this I thank God even my wife mentored

me I was a crazy hippie from 1972 didn't know

how to dress when I went to church and people

didn't want me in church because I look so weird

but my wife came into my life having grown up

in the church she taught me about giving the

best to God I went to pick her up for our first

date it was a church service She said, I ain't

going with you that way. She made me change.

And from there on, she's still making me change.

38 years. And I just kind of, I got to get her

approval for everything now. I've been doing

it for 38 years. I can't do anything on myself.

What do you think? Well, thank God for wives

and people that God put in our life. We've mentored

each other as we've walked together. She's my

first disciple, and she's the woman I love spending

time with. I love my children, I love my grandchildren,

but I love my wife even more. So they come to

a lean, the 12 springs of water, and now three

million people have to learn how to drink from

12 wells. Not 1200 wells, but 12 wells Sure,

there's got to come some structure and some organizing

and people have to come around and respect authority

I believe you've been through that Well, you've

learned how to respect and honor authority and

procedures in the house of God. This is a house

of order It's a house of freedom, but there's

order in this house There everything is done

decently yet in order and I so thank God for

that The next stage after you learn how to respect

authority and submit to authority because you

can't be an authority until you learn how to

submit to authority is exodus 17 here's the next

journey exodus 17 verses 3 and on says but the

Exodus 17:3

people were thirsty again it says the people

were thirsty for water there because they journeyed

and they had no water. So the people were thirsty

for water and they complained to Moses, why did

you take us from Egypt and dragged us out here

with our children and animals to die of thirst?

And Moses cried out in prayer to God, what can

I do with these people? Any minute now they're

gonna kill me. God said to Moses, go on out ahead

of the people. taking with you some of the elders

of Israel take the staff you use to strike the

Nile and Go, I'm going to be present before you

there on the rock of at Horeb You are to strike

the rock somebody say strike the rock Water will

gush out of it and the people will drink So Moses

did what he said with the elders of Israel right

there watching he named the place masa the testing

place because it was another test and Meribah

the quarreling place because of the quarreling

of the Israelites and because of their testing

of God when they said is God here with us or

not And every time God takes us through the journey

he seems to slip back Out of the scene where

he can be actually seen or discerned he's there

But he wants us teach us how to walk by faith

Amen and not by sight and you got to trust him

if he brought you that far He's not gonna put

you to shame He's gonna provide for you. He's

gonna meet you along the way Don't let your fears

Don't let the insecurities of the past come back

and rob you of your moment of faith Your moment

to trust God and say God will come through watch

out kids. God's gonna bout to break out This

isn't gonna stay this way I believe in God for

men and women that will rise up and teach another

generation how to put their whole trust in God

You can trust God. He's good for his word. You

can take his word to the bank It's not gonna

bounce back at you. It won't return back void.

Can you say man? Come on somebody give our God

a big hand. He's worthy of trust He's worthy

of trust You can trust him God is good. We travel

across nations, my wife and I, and sometimes,

to tell you the truth, we have to believe Him.

Now that we have released ourselves from the

local church, the only sense of income is from

what we do as God leads us to places and God

blesses us and takes care of us. And we arrive

at foreign lands sometimes with very few dollars

in our pocket, but nothing in our account. We've

drained everything, given everything that we

have away and sold into other places, and we

have found ourselves over and over in places

and lands where we didn't know where the... next

dollar was going to come from, how are we going

to even get back home? I'm opening up my heart

to you. It's not so that you take another second

offering, but if you want to do it, I'll receive

it. I just want to teach you faith, because sometimes

you've got to do what God tells you to do, no

matter what the circumstances dictate. You cannot

let your bank account dictate your faith. If

you're going to do something for God, you better

believe that He pays for what He orders. And

we've been praying all of a sudden we pray and

we thank God and the Lord will whisper He whispered

into my wife's ear just the other day and said

have I ever left you in shame And I turned on

my computer in the moment I turned it on an email

popped up and said I've just deposited some money

into your account And it was enough to get the

job done that we needed to get done and God has

provided Miraculously, I'm telling you our God

listen. He bypasses the frail economy that we're

in Heaven is not in trouble. Heaven will not

close down anytime soon Heaven is open for business,

but you can only transact with faith in the bank

of heaven. Can you say amen? How many are ready

to access your ATM in heaven and access? Miracle

and pull a miracle out for God. Can you say amen?

Well, that's the kind of faith he wants. He wants

you to trust him. He brought you out. You're

in this journey now He'll provide he's provided

for 11 wonderful years God's gonna provide for

every CD that needs to be produced Miraculous

money is about to spring open up checks that

nobody expected will come out and God will provide

for what he has ordered in this house Who shall

I am a cut in a name? Somebody say strike the

rock and Lord said to him but take the staff

which you use to strike the Nile It's the same

staff. It's always been with you You don't need

to wait for something to happen. You need to

make something happen use that which is in your

hand use that talent I've given you you've that

authority I've already given you to bring provision

some people are walking around with the answer

to their demise and Not understanding that's

already in their hand It's their gift, it's their

talent, it's their ability. But have not learned,

have not woken up to the fact that you already

have what you need to bring your next miracle

into place. Strike the rock. Here's the next

one, I'm moving quick. Numbers 20. Verses one,

two, verses two, none. Numbers 20, are you with

me? Here's the fourth part of the journey, I've

got five only. And the fifth one has got about

30 points. No. Number's 20. It says, again, here's

the language. There was no water there, verse

two and on. There was no water there for the

community. So they ganged up on Moses and Aaron.

It's always Moses' fault. And when things go

bad, we got all these spiritual gangs that want

to rise. Kill Moses. That pasture. It's Moses

fault. It's those elders. So they ganged up on

Moses and Aaron and they attacked Moses. We wish

we died when the rest of our brothers died before

God. Why did you haul this congregation of God

out here into this wilderness to die? People

and cattle alike. And why did you take us out

of Egypt in the first place? dragging us into

this miserable country. No grain, no figs, no

grapevines, no pomegranates, and now not even

any water. And Moses and Aaron walked from the

assembly, assembled congregation to the tent

meeting and threw themselves face down on the

ground. And they saw the glory of God. Somebody

say they saw the glory. Now I want to say to

you that when Moses and Aaron walked away from

the people they were pretty angry Their temperament

was hot and they walked away because they needed

God to get them under control And they saw glory

the glory of God I think that sued them and God

spoke to Moses take the staff Assemble the community

you and your brother Aaron and he said to him

speak to the rock speak to the rock. Somebody

say speak. Speak to the rock. Don't strike the

rock this time Moses. Just speak to it. Because

this is a whole other phase. You've just started

another part of the journey. And now I'm training

you. I'm taking you to a whole other phase of

faith. I'm taking you deeper in your faith than

you've ever been. Now it's not the rods, not

your talents, not your ability that's gonna get

something to happen. It's your faith. You're

going to speak. You're going to speak the word.

I'm gonna teach you how to speak and talk like

I speak. I call the things that are not as if

they were. That's how God speaks. He's spoken

that into all of our lives. Listen, listen, you

are being transformed and changed because God

has spoken change. Already into your life. There

are things that have been said that some of you

are suffering transformation and change and don't

even know it that God's Developing that which

he said about you. There's a creative word at

work There's a power of the Word of God that

cannot return back void at work in your marriage

at work in your home at work in your children

Nobody will escape the working of the powerful

Word of God Look at somebody say he's working

you over. I know that Just in case you think

you're Out of this picture. I don't care how

old you are. You're still alive sucking oxygen

on planet earth. He's not through with you So

you never too old for God to work you over hello

Get you to a deeper place than God Some of you

have said we're gonna let the other generation

do it. Let them praise God Let them get radical

something you need to get back on the wagon You

need to get crazy for God become some old folks

that are crazy for God Don't just let your life

be what I'm gonna move to Florida and retire

out there My listen I live in Florida. I watch

those guys all the time. They're in the malls

chasing after their wives Their wives still got

it. They're strong shopper. They're shopping

out there The husbands are chasing them down.

They're grumbling between their teeth this moment.

And they're rebuking their wife. I bind that

spirit of shopping. I want to go home. And the

wife said, what did you say? I said, no, I bless

you. I bless you. And then just learn how to

flow through life. I'm in retirement. Florida

is God's waiting room. It's the only place where

you hope your name doesn't get called up. But

I watch guys, they're living all over the world,

moving to Florida. Your life's not over. You

don't abandon your church. You don't abandon

ship. Your grandchildren need your testimony.

Your grandchildren need to see you worshiping

God, blessing God. I don't care if you can't

jump, you can fake it. Let them see you're still

alive. The dead can't worship God. Somebody,

let that little baby see you looking crazy for

God every time the presence of God falls. So

your hips come out. Let your hips come out for

God. They came out for other things. Worship.

You're a worshiping church. You're part of a

fire church. This is not just for young people.

This church is for old and young alike. This

is for a radical group of people that won't conform

to this world, won't shut up, and won't put up

with the devil's plot. Can you say amen? Am I

talking to the right church? Are you the right

people or not? Will you stand and give God a

praise in this place? Come on, turn around, give

two or three people a big high five and tell

them we're it! We're God's chosen instrument.

Now get seated, I want to finish. The Bible says

that Moses took the staff and took his elders.

went before the people and then he spoke to the

people and he said what I need to bring out water

again for you guys and he disobeyed God because

God didn't say speak to the people God said speak

to the rock he misrepresented God and offended

the holiness of God he wasn't reverent before

the Lord he did not howl me as reverent as holy

before the people because God cares how leaders

represent him And he didn't represent him, he

was frustrated, he was angry. And the Bible says

that instead of speaking to the rock, he struck

the rock twice. Now the New Testament interprets

that that rock that followed him was Christ.

And when he struck the rock twice, God said,

uh -uh, you've just crossed a line of no return.

My son will be struck once. For the sins of the

world, but nobody will strike him twice Said

Moses and Aaron you will not Take the people

into the promised land because of this you're

not going in you can look at it from afar But

this will cause you your entrance into the future

The right of passage has been taken away Because

you did not trust God. That's what God said to

him You didn't trust me. That wasn't the people,

it's you as a leader. You didn't trust me. You

were supposed to represent me and this is for

every leader, not just pastors, this is for every

man that leads their home. You didn't trust God.

God said speak to the rock. Heard a man say,

you know, I caught what God was saying to me.

I've struck, I've used a rod to beat my children

instead of speaking to them and thinking that

with the word I could change their lives and

I'm guilty of it. I let my temperament get the

best of me. Fathers, I called you to step up

your level of faith. Don't lose it with your

children. You represent God more than anybody

else to them. You need to have words of faith

and words of encouragement and words that speak

them into the future Words that are so positive

that they'll go away and think about them for

the rest of their life when God calls you home

They'll still be thinking about the words you

use to build them up instead of tearing them

down And God said to Moses I wanted you to speak,

but you struck the rock. So you're not doing

this. You didn't trust me, and you did not treat

me with holy reverence in front of the people.

Here's the last one. Because before he even is

sent up to die, he's gotta take it to one more

step, one more journey. And here it is, Numbers

21. Are you with me? Numbers 21, verse 16 through

Numbers 21:16–19

19. They went on to beer. The well was called

beer. That wasn't a cult 45. That was a well

that was called beer. For those of you who are

thinking, wow, this is a cool church. They went

on to beer where God said to Moses, gather the

people. I'll give them water. That's where Israel

sang this song erupt well or new King James says

spring up a well Sing the song of the well The

well sunk by princesses dug out by the people's

leaders digging with their scepters and staffs

both scepters and staff or are Symbolic of authority

they were digging out but the people were singing

Wells that have been plugged up by the enemies

of a... Family of God the Philistines Wells were

opened by Abraham the Philistines came and covered

them Isaac had to unplug them leaders who God

has called through every generation use their

scepter use their authority to unplug the wells

and now they're standing up in this last Part

of a journey and God's teaching Moses Moses now.

It's different I don't call them to throw a stick

into this well. Oh listen. It's a stopped up.

Well. It's been covered up I want the leaders

down in the pit. I want them digging it But while

you're digging with their authority while they're

pressing in pressing on for something to happen

I want the people to gather around the well and

sing the song of the well and the song of the

well is Spring up a well spring up and as the

people began to sing water gushed out of the

well And I'm here to tell you that this is year

11, the year of the song in this house. The song

that's going to cause wells to spring out. Wells

of water will begin to gush out. Get ready for

the saturating of the Holy Ghost and the anointing

that's going to come on this valley of families,

on people. You're going to sing your way out

of financial trouble. You're going to sing people

out of their deathbeds. You're going to sing

them out of their infirmities. into a hope sentence.

Are you with me? You're going to sing your maximum

kids back home. You're going to sing your wayward

husbands back to your family. You're going to

sing, sing, sing, sing. Come on, are you ready

to sing? Are you ready to raise your voice and

be heard in this valley louder than ever before?

This is a new phase of our anointing in God for

you. This is what you've been called to do. To

bring water where there is no water. You're not

called to say well, that's too plugged up That'll

never happen all those out there those for those

things you had to plug wells That's though. They

made sure nobody's gonna unplug it No, you're

gonna look at that well and say I've got enough

authority in my song. I've been commanded by

God to sing to my well I'm gonna sing my way

out of trouble I'm going to sing my way out of

thirst. I'm not going to languish and die in

this desert. It might be bad now. The economy

might be bad. I've maybe lost my house, lost

my business, lost my cars. But I'm not going

to lose my life. I'll regain all those things.

And I'll do it with a song. I'm going to sing.

I'm going to sing. I believe the heart of God

longs to hear fathers sing to their children.

Songs of love and songs that will call the river

of God back into their children. Prophetic songs

that will release things that the enemy has plugged

up in your children, in the lives of those that

are no longer at the altars of God. They were

talented, they were gifted, but they've walked

away. Families and backsliders. If you only knew

the power that's in your song, you'll hurry up

and publish these songs because they all have

the power not only to restore your children,

but to restore the broken of the world. to restore

the children of prophetic songs that will go

out of this place as you Publish them and go

out and that please don't say well There's so

much of it going on there's so much in the music

world hill songs there and no I don't care who

else is there God's calling you to do it and

you need to rise up You've got one of the greatest

worship anointings in the world. I'm not saying

that to puff you up This is a well spring of

God. There's a well that needs to come open in

this house musicians and singers spring up, and

I don't care if you're a singer like me that

can't find the key. I'm like a prison singer.

I'm always behind a few bars and always looking

for the key. You can't tune up with everybody

else, but you can still sing. Hello. You know,

in the world, when God created the world, He

created the birds of the air. Unclean birds in

the Bible have no song. They make weird noises.

But they all have a song The clean birds are

the ones with a song You've been washed by the

blood of a lamb Maybe you couldn't sing before

maybe all you could do is make Before but now

you're a new creature in Christ. He's turning

from a dirty bird into a clean bird Can you say

that there's a song deep inside if you dig deep

enough? You'll sing a song in your kitchen that'll

turn your some side down. Demons will have to

flee at the sound of the song of his house. You

want to see deliverance? Sing your song. Sing

your way through the most incredible forged attacks

of the devil. You'll sing your way through like

the armies of Jehoshaphat did. For the Lord is

good and His mercy abhors forever and out of

heaven angels are dispatched at the sound of

a song. As soon as they started singing in the

day of Jehoshaphat, God dispatched angels and

went to war against the armies that threatened

Israel. And they saw a great deliverance. Are

you ready? Deep cries out to deep. This is a

whole new deep day for you. You're entering a

new level of faith, a new stage in God. And when

people look at you, I never heard you sing before,

daddy. I just stepped into a whole nother round

and God son Watch I look a little out of tune

here, but I'm gonna get it I'll find that key

and I'll tune in and I'll locked into the wave

of a Holy Ghost And before you know it my songs

will begin to make sense. I'm gonna sing about

your future I'm gonna I'm not going to pray you

to sleep I'm gonna sing you to sleep with a song

that as I prophesy about your destiny Oh Listen

this works All around the world the same anointing

if we can just get the church to sing their song

And it's up to you now. I've delivered the Word

of God This is my third service trying to get

out the burden of the Lord. I've done it now.

It's on you Look at somebody and say dare to

sing Dare to sing dare to sing to your well That's

right. You might not be good for the worship

team. That's okay Let those who are super gifted

in skill be on the platform. Don't don't try

to do that. Okay But you can say you can sing

in the shower Maybe it's in the shower that you

get inspired There's something about singing

in the shower that just makes everybody believe

they can sing Is that true you're singing away

and You think nobody's listening, but the whole

family's out in the back room. Jesus. But it's

you and God singing the prayer room, singing

the outreaches, singing the hospitals over hospital

beds that are filled with dying people. Take

your songs to the world. I believe you'll have

the power to change it. God bless you. If you
