Sunday Message (Sunday 1st) - Moses Vegh (June 25, 2006) | Life Bible Church

I was thrilled that this weekend was open and

I considered a great privilege to have this impartation

this morning. Would you welcome the servant of

the Lord, Pastor Moses Vey as he comes. Thank

you. God bless you. Good morning. Ah, you folks

get up early around here. I feel like the preacher

who dreamed he was preaching, and when he woke

up, he was. What a day to be in the house of

the Lord. What a day to be in the fellowship

of the family of God. And the Lord knows where

you folks live. It's amazing how he finds you

out here. What a wonderful place, and I've enjoyed

being with you in the great hospitality and friendship

of everyone extended to us, and thank you so

much. I'm sure your hearts are ready for the

Word of God as we are praying this morning in

the prayer room back here in the power room,

and I just thought how good it was that we could

be together and listen for God. It's a wonderful

thing to have a hearing ear, isn't it? Amen.

Eight times in the book of Revelation, Jesus

said, he that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Isn't it wonderful that God gave us twice as

many ears as he did tongues? Every one of you

are wired for sound. God made you that way. He

made you susceptible to his voice. And he's a

God who communicates. God is not giving you the

silent treatment. Amen? His voice is continuous.

Only our hearing is intermittent. So that's why

it's important that we have an ear to hear. Morning

by morning, he wakens my ear. Morning by morning,

he wakens me. And then he wakens my ear to hear.

And then he gives me the tongue of a disciplined

one. One that can speak a word in season to those

who are weary. And that's what we want to do

this morning. I'm talking to you this morning

from my heart because I believe God's ordained

this time. And this is a time of enlargement.

That's my theme. It's a time of enlargement.

It's a time for God to stretch us. Amen. Men

are always looking for better methods. God is

looking for better men. Men who are on the stretch.

I'm not just talking about men -men. I'm talking

about women -men too. In other words, I don't

want to get you confused, but some of God's greatest

men are women. And be careful how I say that.

California, but anyway. God is no respecter of

persons. His anointing is important for all of

us, isn't it? But God is, E .M. Bound says, God's

looking for men who are on the stretch for God.

Think about it, on the stretch for God. Sometimes

you feel like he's pulled you to the extreme,

but there's still more room. He'll keep stretching

you. He'll keep enlarging you. And that's God's

purpose. service. I felt the Lord gave me a specific

word for this body, and I'm not going to read

it, but I'll quote you part of it. It's in Isaiah

49. In fact, I'm going to just give you the scriptures.

You can write them down if you want to. I'll

be speaking primarily from Isaiah chapter 54.

Isaiah 54 · chapter mention

I'll make reference to other passages, but this

particular scripture is in Isaiah 49, verses

Isaiah 49:13–17

13 through 17. And the Lord said, sing, O Zion.

Break forth in a singing. God's a God who loves.

Thank you, dear. God bless you. And as I told

you last night, if I get, I got a little fire.

If I get a little water, we might have some steam.

I'm not used to being out here in the country

with all this wonderful, wonderful hay around.

Isaiah 49, 13, he said, sing, O Zion, break forth

into singing. Well, Zion says, I don't feel like

singing. I don't feel like singing because I

don't even think God remembers me. I feel like

God's forsaken me. That's the attitude of the

church. We're called the Zion of God. We've come

to Mount Zion, haven't we? Amen. We used to sing

the old hymn, we're marching to Zion. Anybody

remember that old hymn? Oh, yeah, okay. Well,

the truth of it is it's Zion marching. It's not

we're marching to Zion. We are Zion, amen? And

he says, Zion says, the Lord has forsaken me.

And then the Lord asked the rhetorical question.

He says, can a mother forsake her sucking child?

Can the mother forget the child of her birth?

And God said, yes, the mother will forget. Our

mothers do forget. It's sad to say, but we do

have mothers that forget. But God said, I'll

not forget you. And the reason I can't forget

you is because I've got a picture of you on both

of my hands. I've got you tattooed. That's what

the Amplified Bible said. I've engraved in you.

I've tattooed you. I have a picture of you. on

the palms of my hands. And not what you look

like now, but what you are going to look like

when he gets done processing you. Amen. So every

time he whoops you a little, he looks at his

hand. He said, okay, a little more. Hallelujah.

And how many understand what I'm talking about?

Because the father loves us. He's shaping us

into the image of his son. He's creating us into

his image. And we can move on that. It's powerful.

But Zion has said this because There's this feeling

sometimes like God has cut you off. You wonder

if God even remembers your address. Does he know

where you live? Does he have your phone number?

Is he sensitive to your needs? Yes, God said,

I know all about you. I can't forget you. Every

time I look at my hands, there you are. And not

like you are now, but like you're going to be

because he's shaping us and conforming us to

the image of his son, the Lord Jesus. Amen. But

that isn't all he says. He said, I want you to

start singing now because your builders and your

children are coming to you. Your builders and

children are coming. Make haste. They're coming

with haste. In other words, a quick work. And

I'm speaking this prophetically to this church.

You're on the threshold of a quick explosion

of enlargement. It's not going to be a protracted

thing. It's going to be very quick. And God said,

I'm going to send you builders. I'm going to

send you builders, and it's going to be children.

You know what's interesting? The word for builder

and building material is the same in the Bible,

and it's the same word we use for sons and daughters

in the Hebrew. It's bana. It's something to do

with building material. He said, I'm sending

you sons and daughters. I'm going to send you

builders, but I'm also going to do something

else. I'm going to take away from you those who

would destroy. Now that's a powerful, powerful

promise. God said, I'm going to send you builders,

but I'm not going to let destroyers get among

you. I'm going to take them away from you. I'll

keep them away from you. It's a wonderful thing

God's doing here because, you know, I heard this

years ago, a good thing to remember and a better

thing to do is always work with the builders

and not the wrecking crew. You'll find in every

instance in the scriptures, wherever there was

dispersion and dissembling in the body of Christ,

it came through murmuring. Murmur, murmur. Isn't

that an incredible word? It's not even etymologically

sound. It doesn't make any sense. Mur, mur, mur,

murmur. That's the language of the kingdom of

darkness. Worship and praise is the language

of the sons of the kingdom. Amen? Of God. And

so murmuring, that's the devil's language. The

Lord said, I'll keep that away from you. I'm

going to send you the kind of material that will

build, that will construct, that will be powerful

and edifying. And then he says, I'll gather.

Then I'm going to gather to you the nations,

and I'm going to clothe you with them. God said,

I'm going to put them on you as an ornament on

a bride. Isn't that marvelous? That's all there

in chapter 49. Now, I won't develop that because

you'll have time to look at that later, but that

is powerful. If you read it in the Amplified,

it's even a little more poignant, all right?

And so what the Lord was saying to us, that the

time for enlargement has come. Let's look at

Isaiah chapter 54, if you will, please, in your

Isaiah 54 · chapter mention

Bible. Isaiah is in the Old Testament. Chapter

54. And here's what God said. Incidentally, how

many know that 54 follows 53? Isn't that deep?

All right. Chapter 53, we have the total story

of the sufferings of Christ. And that 53rd chapter

opens with these words. Lord, who has believed

our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord?

been made revealed or made real. The Hebrew word

there is very powerful because literally what

it's saying, it's in the feminine. The Hebrew

is in the feminine gender and it says, who is

she that has said amen to her Lord or her husband's

report? Who is the she here? Very critical. This

whole text is wrapped around the sacrifice of

Jesus Christ, our Lord. There's no chapter any

more explicit about the suffering of Christ than

Isaiah 53. which talks to us as we did in communion

this morning. He was wounded for our transgressions.

He was bruised for our iniquities, and the chastisement

of our peace was upon him, and by his stripes

we are healed. You remember the Ethiopian eunuch

was stumbling along this 53rd chapter when Philip

went up to meet him on the road to Azotus, and

so on. And so we find that it's a very critical

chapter. Who is she? This is the key word here.

Who is the she here? He's talking about his bride.

Who is the bride that's going to say amen to

her Lord's report? It's a powerful thing when

the spirit and the bride, listen to me carefully

now, when the spirit and the bride are saying

the same thing. In Revelation chapter 21, when

Revelation 21 · chapter mention

the spirit and the bride say come, chapter 22,

He says he will come. In other words, when the

spirit and the bride are saying the same thing,

even so come quickly, Lord Jesus. I don't believe

he's coming till we're saying the same thing.

We have to come in agreement with him. Amen.

Who is she that says amen to the Lord's report?

Okay. Now, after the 53rd chapter describes the

sufferings of Christ. And then he's buried with

the dead, with the rich rather, in his death.

And he's put in a borrowed tomb, as you know.

He didn't stay there. Thank God. I've been to

the tomb. I've laid in it. I know he's not there.

Hallelujah. I didn't want to stay there either.

Praise God. I know he's been there, but he's

not there now. And so today we're standing on

the other side of the redemptive work of Christ.

And in chapter 54, the first word in that 54th

chapter is sing. Sing, O barren, sing. For the

bride... of Christ here is depicted as one who's

been barren, not productive, but he said, you're

going to be productive. Sing, O barren, sing.

So the first thing that's going to release productivity

in the body is a new song. In every new move

of God, there's a fresh word. In every new move

of God, there's a song. There's a fresh sound.

Every visitation of God. I'd done a recent study

on the history of our Pentecostal roots in keeping

with the 100 years celebration at Azusa Street.

I think you all heard about it. And I had a tremendous

time studying that for a simple reason. I've

lived seven tenths of that time. And I preached

about six tenths of that time. So, you know,

it's exciting to know that. that we've lived

to see the outpouring of the Spirit of God and

the results of it are all over the world. And

believe me, there's no limit to what God's doing

today. We're seeing hundreds of thousands of

people turning to Christ. And thousands every

day are being born again and filled with the

Holy Ghost. And the revival is on. We've been

in many countries. And so this great gospel,

this glorious thing is proliferate all over the

world. Well, we won't get into that. But I've

done four weeks of study on that. And I'll tell

you, I was more excited, I believe, than anybody

who heard me because it's still in my spirit.

I'm excited about enlargement. I'm excited about

what God's saying here in the Word. So here's

what he said. Break forth into singing, O barren

one, and cry aloud if you never had children

before, for more are the children of the desolate

than the children of the married wife, says the

Lord. Enlarge the place of thy tent and let them

stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations.

Spare not. That's a powerful word. In other words,

God said, don't limit me. Spare not. Don't fence

me in. Don't inhibit me. Don't try to put your

limitations on what I want to do. Amen? Let me

tell you right now, I hasn't seen it. Ear hasn't

heard it. Neither has it entered the heart of

man. The things which God has already prepared

for you that love him. But that's not a period

there. It's a comma. but he has revealed them

to us by his Spirit, for the Spirit searches

all things, yea, the deep things of God. Now

we've received not the Spirit of this world,

but we've received the Spirit of Christ that

we may freely know, that we may freely know.

Every one of us should be in the know. Every

one of us are given a prerogative of knowing.

What God has already prepared. God is getting

you ready for that which he has already ready

for you. Amen. You're not going to surprise the

Lord. And he's not surprised by what happens.

He's already planned it. Amen. This day has already

been planned of God. This congregation has been

ordered of God. You're here today by divine appointment.

Maybe somebody cajoled you to come. Maybe somebody

just. razzed you and said, you got to go to church.

Maybe you're here because you want to be here.

All of that's wonderful, but you're here in the

will of God. And so God is here to meet you.

And here's what I want you to see. He said, spare

not, lengthen your cords. Important now. Let's

look at two things, cords and stakes and strengthen

your stakes. God said, I want you to prepare

yourself for you shall break forth on the right

hand. And on the left hand, I don't know how

many other hands you have. Amen. God said, I'm

going to bless you on the right hand, and I'm

going to bless you on the left hand. You're going

to break forth. The word there, break forth,

is a word, bara, which means like a breaking

forth of a mighty stream. It means an irresistible

force. It means you're going to bear. You're

going to have children. Let me tell you something.

You just can't be a little bit pregnant. I know

my wife had six of them. She wished I'd have

had a couple. At least one. Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you, Jesus. That he fixed it that way.

Hallelujah. But we love them all. And now we've

got 17 grandkids. a couple of great grands, so

we're moving right along. Anyhow, he said, you're

going to break forth. We finally discovered what

was causing it. You shall break forth on the

right hand and on the left, and thy seed shall

inherit the Gentiles and make the desolate cities

to be inhabited. I want you to see something

here very powerful. For God said, I don't want

you to limit me. I don't want you to be restricted.

I read this in our paper yesterday, and it's

just amazing. You can't read it, but I'll just

tell you what it says. There's a study going

on now that people's circle of close friends

are waning. That's in our Orange County Register,

very popular paper where we are. And the story

goes on to tell us that people are disintegrating.

Relationships are disintegrating. We're living

in a fast age when everybody's getting involved

and they're more involved with internet and with

all of the mechanics of internet and whatever

you call it, the new age of revelation and information

and television and video and all of that. But

let me tell you something. There's an inherent

desire in every one of you. You are birthed in

God to be part of an entity. You're part of the

body of Christ. You are the bride of Christ.

And we are interrelated. And we are interdependent.

And we do need each other. We're not an island

unto ourselves. And let me tell you something.

We don't get to choose who is going to be our

brother and sister. God said, I'm going to bring

you all kinds of people, all kinds of ethnos.

The word Gentiles here literally means multiplied

nations, people from every tribe, every nation.

God is going to build his church with a multiplicity

of people. And we're not going to limit God by

our frame of reference and by our simple desire

to isolate ourselves. But God is integrating

a glorious church, a powerful church. And wherever

we go in the world, we meet members of our family,

our body. Amen. Whether I'm in China, in the

underground church where we've traveled many,

many times, or in Africa where the revival is

raging in Africa. People don't realize this.

We hear a lot about AIDS and poverty in Africa.

But I'm going to tell you, there's revival in

Africa. We've been in the Congo where there's

been massacre and all of that. But yet we saw

over 90 ,000 people in in one meeting, crying

out to God. These people had walked for miles

to be there, hungry for God. We go to Africa,

we go to Europe and Kiev and Russia, all over

the nations, God's pouring out his spirit in

those places that were off limits. And God's

visiting is chosen frozen. Amen. This spring,

our son, Marcus, I'll tell you a little bit about

him a little later on perhaps, but God, ordained

that he was put in a position to bring all the

missionary leaders of the world. These are the

world's greatest missionary enterprises. I'm

talking about the Youth for Christ and the Campus

Crusades, which they have 27 ,000 people on staff

all over the world. YWAM and the Southern Baptist

Convention and the Assemblies of God missions

and all these major missionary leaders were together.

And they got a call from the Vatican. Listen

to this. From the Vatican. You know what that

is? That's over there in Rome. You know where

I'm talking about. The Vatican called them and

they said, we want to send a representative from

the Vatican. The man come and he's a spirit -filled,

born -again, spirit -filled Italian who's married.

Living in the Vatican. Now, you understand what

I'm talking about? This is the guy that's the

head of evangelism for the Catholic Church. They've

come to realize that they don't know how to get

people saved. Did you hear what I'm saying? The

Vatican sent a representative to this meeting,

and he became a very dear friend of my son. And

they become very close together. And in that

meeting, he was weeping. He said, please, Marcus,

come. Come and spend some time with me at the

Vatican and sit down and teach us how to get

people saved and filled with the Holy Ghost.

Unprecedented. And while he was there in the

States, his wife was diagnosed with cancer of

the breast. And he wired back and sent emails

back, said, please pray. God will do a miracle

for my wife. She has been diagnosed with cancer.

They plugged into the prayer net and three weeks

later, three weeks later, he wired back and said,

she's healed. Praise God, she's healed. Two months

ago, our son Marcus was diagnosed with cancer

of the throat as he was addressing the missionary

leaders of the world in another major meeting.

God gave them a vision that's unbelievable of

reaching the unknown. reach peoples of the earth,

639 groups that they've singled out, that they've

done research on, that have no language, written

language, that is. They don't have a written

language. You can give them a book, but they

couldn't read it. You can give them a Bible,

and they couldn't read it. So what are we doing?

We're having to reach them orally. And they've

come up with a whole plan, a whole new structure

of the Bible, the whole Bible in story format,

135 stories in 48 hours. of teaching on CDs that

they're translating into all these languages

to get to these people so they can hear the story.

They can hear the story and be discipled. And

all of this is happening. Two months ago, our

son was diagnosed with cancer as he was addressing

these people. But let me tell you what, God's

healing him. He's coming out of it. My wife is

healed and we're seeing awesome miracles. You

know, when the scripture, when you read in the

Bible, 1 Peter tells us, Not to be, you know,

don't be, don't think it's strange concerning

the fiery trial. Did anybody read that in your

Bible? You don't have that mark, do you? That's

one scripture I don't like to mark. I walk over

it. I love to jump on the other side of it where

it says that your faith may be as pure gold.

I like the gold part. The fiery part I don't

like. But that's part of it. Don't think it's

strange, God said, because I'm processing you,

and I'm processing you. And I just want to take

this moment to tell you there's something awesome

going on right now in this whole area. When my

son came down with that diagnosis, his friend

in the Vatican found out about it, and he said,

Marcus, don't worry. We have all of our prayer

warriors praying for you. We have a whole cloister

of sisters over here that do nothing but pray

24 -7. Think of that. And you're on the top of

the list and they're praying for your healing

in the Vatican. Come on, church. These things

just hadn't happened before. We're living in

an awesome day. So what does God say to the church

now? Get involved. Come on. Everything Christ

accomplished for us on the cross is ours to live

and enjoy. And he says start singing because

the whole purpose of the cross is production.

To bring many sons and daughters into the kingdom

of God. Amen? So he said, I want you to see this.

There are over 70 definitions of the church in

the Bible. Many definitions. The ecclesia, the

called out ones, the born again, the chosen ones.

Go through it. It's a bride in combat boots.

Check it out. All of these descriptions are in

the Bible. But it's moving time. Church here

in Harrisburg, Oregon. It's moving time. God

said the winds of God are blowing. Great shakings

are going on right now. He said when the Lord

rises up to build Zion, when the Lord builds

Zion, then shall he appear. Then shall he appear

in his glory. Psalms 102, verse 16. He said,

Psalms 102:16

when I get ready to build Zion, he said, you

shall go from strength to strength, every one

of you appearing before the Lord in Zion. How

many know that when you go from one strength

to, to, to strength? How many know the twos are

long? And you go from glory to, to. Two glory.

The twos are long. How many know what I'm talking

about? You just don't jump from one glory to

another. There's some glory in between glory.

Then shall the Lord appear in Zion. Now here's

what he said. Enlarge the place of your dwelling.

That means you have to rip out the old tent stakes,

get them out from where they are. We're talking

about a tent. We're not talking about a building

now, a brick and mortar. We're talking about

a tent. Enlarge the place of your tent. Stretch

your curtains way out. In ancient Bible times

and even now in the Middle East, a man was known,

his wealth was registered by the number of tent

pegs he had in his tent or stakes. Let's say

stakes. You know what I mean? We drive down the

stake. Okay. He was a many -staked man, and that

means he's wealthy. It means he's got a broad

coverage. His tent reaches out. He's got terrain.

And still in the Middle East, when you go visit

these people, you'll find the goats and sheep

and cattle and dogs and cats and chickens are

all under the same tent. And I've been there.

But the hospitality of these people is unbelievable.

Once you're under his tent, you are under his

responsibility. He's responsible for you, and

he's going to watch out for you. If he invites

you in his tent, you're covered. Amen? Now, here's

what he said. Enlargement has to happen. But

let me tell you something about enlargement.

Enlargement has to happen in our hearts. When

God gave Solomon this awesome challenge to build

the temple of the Lord, He cried out to God with

all the splendor he had and all the finances

he had. Folks, you think the Democrats can spend

a lot of money. Let me tell you something. You

couldn't even calculate what kind of finance

went into the structure of Solomon's temple.

This thing was so magnifical, as the old English

word says, it was magnifical. It was absolutely

fabulous. profound. And it wasn't as large as

this building right here. But in 1932 dollars,

that's when I looked back and started doing something

I wasn't born in. But anyway, when gold was $32

an ounce, and it's somewhere around, I don't

know where it is now, $600 or $700 maybe. But

at that time, The building of Solomon's temple,

they estimated, cost at least, at least $30 billion.

B, billion. That's a whole lot of money. Amen.

So there was no lack. He had all of that. It

was all laid up. Gold. I mean, they didn't just

put a little gold ornament here and there. They

just covered the walls with gold. The whole thing

was overlaid with gold. Every stone in that building

was interlocked with gold. It had a gold lock

that tied it together. Every stone in that building

had been quarried and cut in the quarry and numbered

so that when that building was put together,

there was not the sound of a hammer. Not the

sound of a hammer to put this magnificent building

that was one of the seven wonders of the world.

I don't think we can even grasp that. But in

all of that, when Solomon prayed, he said, oh

God, please God, give me largeness of heart.

Enlarge my heart. Give me the capacity for what

you want to do. Church, listen to me carefully

now. Look here at me. Every one of us need to

have our parameters stretched. We have to have

enlargement of the heart before we'll see a magnificent

enlargement of this congregation. I'm not talking

about just buildings. I'm talking about the building

that God is building. And God's far more interested

in building big people than he is big churches.

I'm talking about buildings. You understand?

You are the church and he's building you. Now

here's what he said. Start singing. Because you're

going to get pregnant and you're going to break

out on the right hand and on the left. And he

said, enlarge the place of your tent. Esther

said, or Mordecai said to Esther, look, in chapter

4, verse 14, he said, listen, if you don't come

through now, sister, if you don't produce, if

you don't do what God called you to do, enlargement

will come from another place. The word there

in the Hebrew is not only enlargement, it's respiration.

It means breath. It means we got the noose around

our neck. You see, old Haman had the rope already

around the neck of a nation, but God put Esther

there for that moment. Do you understand? And

Mordecai said, this is your day, honey. If you

don't do it, God's going to have to do it some

other way, but he'll get it done. Enlargement

will come. enlargement will come. Listen to me.

Enlargement will come. This church is a living

organism. Amen. Now then, he said, we are no

longer strangers, Paul said in Ephesians 2, verse

Ephesians 2:19

19, and we're not foreigners, we're not strangers,

we're not foreigners, but we are heirs of God

and joint heirs with Christ and we are built

upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets

with Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone

in whom the building fitly framed together groweth,

say groweth. And that means it's alive. That

means it's coming up. It means it's reproducing.

It means it is replicating. And every one of

you are agents of growth. Every one of you are

agents of production. Every one of you are called

of God, not only to birth people into the kingdom

of God, but to bring them to spiritual maturity.

Everyone in this house is destined of God to

be a discipler. I hope you hear me. You say,

well, no, I come here and I pay my tithes and

Brother Brad's a preacher. Let him preach. No,

Brother Brad's here to get you going in the way

you should be going. He's here to stoke your

fire. He's here to give you fuel. He's here to

give you material. But your business is to infiltrate

your community and your business is to absolutely

not only infiltrate your community, but you are

there to be influential in that community, and

you're to bring people to birth into the kingdom

of God. You're a full -time ambassador of the

kingdom of God. You are a full -time representative.

You are a discipler. Jesus Christ did not call

us to go into all the world and build buildings.

He called us to go out in the world and disciple

nations, not just people, but nations. We're

going to nations. We are going to nations. We

have been to nations. God's calling us to nations,

to leaders of nations. We've got invitations

now that are pending to go before men of renown.

One of our young men I was mentoring, God just

sovereignly put him there. He was there with

my son in Pakistan a few years ago, and they

went through chaos, as you know, and they've

had revolution and change of government and all

of that, but the seeds are there. And I just

got an email from him this week. He said, Brother

Moses, I just want to to tell you the seed that

was planted by Marcus a few years ago. Our son

in Pakistan is starting to bloom. He said, I

had three and a half hours this week with the

president of Pakistan, Musharraf, and he wants

us to build a center here in Pakistan. And he

said, I've already told him if we do, we're going

to have a center for the kingdom of God right

in the middle of this business project. We're

talking about a hundred million dollar business

project, but in the middle of that is a center

to tell people how to get right with God and

to establish the kingdom of God in Pakistan.

That's happening now. He went from Pakistan to

Dubai and he said, we're coming back with a hundred

million dollar check. God's taken the riches

of these fat cats over there that are taking

all of our money at the pump and he's going to

turn it back into the kingdom of God. It's happening.

Enlargement must come. But let me tell you, enlargement

can't come until we start pulling up some stakes.

And what God's doing here this morning, you better

get ready for it. He's taking you out of your

little comfort zone. He's shaking your little

stick right now. And you're getting concerned

because this old preacher come here and stirring

up this place and going to jerk you out of your

roots, out of your socket. Amen. But we're not

just pulling you out of your socket to leave

you out of your socket. We're going to socket

to you. Hallelujah. And God has a plan for every

one of you in his kingdom. And God said, I want

you to enlarge the place of your dwelling. Now,

two things that have to happen. First of all,

he said, I want you to strengthen your stakes.

The stakes are every one of us. We're individual

stakes in this thing. We're here to support the

building of God. We are members of the body of

Christ and God's planted us and placed us in

our placements. When we had presbytery here,

some of you folks were a little bit rattled and

the strange and wonderful things God revealed

to you. And then you also saw some things about

your brothers and sisters you didn't know. And

that's a refreshing thing, isn't it? Or a depressing

thing, whatever. And God put you on a spot, but

he didn't do that to embarrass you. God's not

in the business of embarrassing us. He's in the

business of embellishing us. And he wants us

to know that we all have our placement in the

body of Christ. And we're all important. Now,

you may not be a main... tent supporter out here

in the middle, some big pillar, but you might

be a small stake, just one stake holding down

a corner. But let me tell you what, every one

of those stakes are vital. Every one are important.

Every one are strategic because if you get a

bad stake here and a bad stake here, they may

be small, but when the winds come, they'll start

ripping up at this corner and they'll take the

whole tent. I don't care how strong those main

pillars are if these little ones aren't holding

their own right down here. understand, every

one of you are vital to the strength and to the

unity and security of this body. And so the Lord

says, now, first of all, enlarge the place of

your tent, get stretched out, get out of your

comfort zone. God said, I'm going to pull you

out of those, out of those sockets. And I'm going

to investigate you and I'm going to examine you.

Now the Lord's not going to throw you in the

heap and say, you're no good. No. He said, if

you got a little rot on you, if you got a little

termite trouble, Some folks do. They've been

in the way so long. You know, some folks, you

can't move them. They're immovable. They feel

like they're planted forever and where they are,

and that's it. Surprise. Yeah, I thought we were

planted too. We pastored for 27 years. I pastored

long enough to be pasteurized. 27 years in one

place, eight years before that, so 35 years.

I mean, come on. What a wonderful, cozy feeling

that was. Church is paid for. God's given us

revival. The biggest revival we ever had was

the last year we were there. I said, Lord, what

in the world are you doing sending me away now?

We've been praying and seeking God for years

for this to happen. Now it's happening, and now

you're telling me to go into all the world? I

could tell you more about that, but I don't want

to go there. I just want to show you how faithful

God is. But he takes us out of our comfort zones,

and then he takes that stake that may be a little

dull and may be a little blunt, and he causes

one of your favorite friends to come and sharpen

you, grind on you a little bit until you get

the point. Then he has one of the elders come

along and wrap a little band around your head

so you don't get smashed and split when the hammer

comes down on you, when God puts you where you

really belong. Okay? We're all going to be pulled,

folks. You better get ready because you're not

going to be the same. You're not going to be

in the same old socket. You say, well, I don't

like that. I'm getting out of here. Well, it

would be a good time to go because God's not

going to let you settle where you are. But don't

you be going because God, you know, God fixes

a fix to fix us. And if we try to fix the fix

before we're fixed, he'll just have to fix another

fix to fix us because he's going to get us fixed.

Amen. So don't be trying to run. You can't hide

from him. God has a place for you. God has a

designated area for you. And every one of you

are vital. Every one of you are important. And

he wants you, listen, he wants every stake to

be strong. That's why he says, make your own

calling and election sure. You've got to know,

praise God. I'm going to stay with it this time.

Praise God. He said, you make your calling and

election. We got another church, another meeting

coming on here. I just, that's just my introduction.

Anyhow, God's calling for new commitment, new

commitment. The word commitment's a powerful

word. In the Greek, the word commitment literally

means to suture, like you tie together a wound,

like a physician sutures up a wound. Okay, did

you get it? Commitment. It means tied together.

It means sewed together. And it means if you're

properly sewed together, you're going to grow

together. Amen? So what we're talking about,

new direction, new leadership. God's bringing

into this body. I don't mean God's going to just

import all kinds of wonderful talent, but God's

going to raise up leadership here. Our son Marcus

is the young man I was telling you about. God's

doing a miracle in his life every hour. It's

just getting more glorious. But he's a part of

the church in Post Falls, Idaho. And this church

in Post Falls, maybe you've been there, I don't

know, but Post Falls is really kind of no place.

You know, 10 ,000 people in that town, but here

they have a church that has grown in the last

seven years from four people to averaging over

6 ,500 people every week. They have five services.

But the strength of this church is not just numeric.

The strength of this church, which is so unique,

is that almost every one of those people are

being discipled. Over 6 ,100 of these people

are in weekly home group meetings being discipled.

And they're discipling, and they're splitting

off these groups. My son started a group in his

home. about three years ago, and now it's split

four different ways. And all these are converts,

neighbors getting saved, and they're starting

their own home groups and expanding. And that

church is growing by leaps and bounds. They had

165, listen, 165 new families come into the church

in one week. In a town of 10 ,000 people, they

got a church that had almost 10 ,000 over Easter

weekend. in their attendance, in their services.

Baptizing by the hundreds. These people are doing

it biblically. And the amazing thing is the pastor

is the most undescript guy. Drives an old beat

-up pickup truck with cowboy boots in the back.

back in an old water jug, I got tickled. And

he wears a farmer's shirt to church and he gets

up and tells the church all these miraculous

things that are happening. And the judges are

there, the police chief's there, the editor of

the newspaper sitting on the front row. I mean,

everybody, there's anybody around that 50 mile

radius are coming to that church. You're driving

from Canada regularly to come down there an hour

and a half away and to be in that service. And

he stands up like he said, gee, I don't know

what's happening. I really can't tell you how

it all happened. I don't know. So I just come

and obeyed God, come here, four people and exploded.

And the thing is just growing by leaps and bounds.

Why? Because they're building. And out of that

congregation, they are shaping leadership. I

was there two weeks ago and they ordained five

pastors out of that congregation to be pastors,

full -time pastors. who were raised in that church,

who came in, was saved in the church, and one

of them was the CEO of AT &T. The other guy was

a mechanic. The other guy was something else.

In other words, just ordinary people that God's

transforming, and this is the pastoral staff.

I don't know how many they have now on the staff,

but it's growing, I think, about 85 now on staff.

And they're just exploding, and they're reaching

the community, but they're discipling people.

That's what this 54th chapter says. Break out

on every hand because your children will be discipled.

Your children will be taught of the Lord. God

said, I'll teach them. And that's a powerful

thing. Now listen carefully. Here's what's happening.

He said, enlarge your tent. Don't be bound by

your previous landmarks or by your previous...

lines of what you call your borders that you

have prescribed. God said, I'm taking you outside

of your prescribed borders or your own self -imposed

limitations. I'm going to scratch you beyond

that. Are you ready for that? Now, that enlargement

has to come here in your heart. You cannot see

the growth that God wants to give this building

until we get uncomfortable. Amen. How many know

that the Holy Ghost is our comforter? Right?

How many know he's our discomforter? Oh, praise

God. Has that ever happened to you? Here we're

seeing God teaching us some awesome things. I

told the church last night, you know, we get

so habit bound. We're so rigid. We do things

by... by rote. We do things, and that's what

I heard in the permitting last night. God doesn't

want us to do things by rote. Well, let me tell

you something I've discovered. If the horse is

dead, dismount. I mean, don't try to keep beating

on the same old brain dead project. If the thing

is dead, move on to something else. Can you say

amen? And God's stretching us. He's calling us

to include many others that we never thought

fit into our circle. How many remember the old

saying, he drew a circle to keep me out? Heretic,

radical, a thing to flout. But love and I had

a will to win. We drew a circle and took him

in. God wants to enlarge your circle. God wants

to enlarge the sphere of your influence. and

the radius of your reach. God wants you to go

beyond wherever you've been. He wants you to

lengthen your cords. Get your stakes down strong.

God's going to plant people in this body. God's

going to send you, pastor, men and women of God

that are going to have the capacity for increase.

And they've got faith, and they've got the means.

They may not have the money, but all you need

is one person that knows that person. Do you

understand that you're only one person away from

anybody in the world you want to meet? I don't

need 10 people to introduce me to George Bush.

I just need one person. And it could be the doorkeeper.

It could be anybody that has access. Amen. Do

you understand? God has mysterious ways of giving

us contact with people. A Holy Ghost influence.

People that will change the whole topography

of what you're doing here. God wants to get your

mind into a larger focus. And God wants to enlarge

our hearts. He wants to give us enlargement.

Now, two things are important. The stakes are

very important. They're individuals that God

has sharpened and God has placed and God has

secured this house with. But there'll be more.

If you're going to stretch out, you're going

to need more stakes. You're going to need more

territory. And your covering is a five -fold

covering. God's increasing that covering. God's

enlarging that. He's stretching that over you.

It's going to be a marvelous place. For he said,

in all of Mount Zion, there shall be a covering.

There shall be a glory. There shall be an attendant

glory. But then, he said, your cords. Strength

has to come before length. You lengthen your

cords. That means. Pastor, you're going into

new territories for fellowship. You're going

to meet people. I see this in the spirit. I don't

even understand where all you come from, but

I feel God's going to bring you back into the

Mennonite camp. He's going to put you back in

connection. Some of them cords have been cut

off and you feel totally cut off, but I believe

God's going to restore relationships. I don't

know how that's going to happen, but even old

grandpa's going to come. Hallelujah. Get ready

for it. Praise God. I don't believe God. I don't

believe God wastes anything. He's an efficient

God and he's put people in your life and your

background and your contacts that are vital to

you. And you may look at them in the flesh and

say, oh, never, Lord. But let me tell you one

thing. God will turn that thing around in a minute.

God can do it beyond what you can imagine, ask,

or think. Now, listen. Watch this. Chords going

out. Chords. I stood in your study last night

upstairs in that beautiful, beautiful home where

I stayed. Such a pleasant place. And I'll tell

you what. I looked at that map that you got on

the mall. And I looked at the center of where

this church is. And I don't even know the county

names or whatever you have around you. But all

these little bergs. But let me tell you something.

I saw cords going out all over the place. Like

a spider web. I saw them going out. And God's

going to lengthen your cords. You've got to strengthen

your stakes. Because your stakes have got to

be able to stand the pull. God will pull you

through if you can stand the pull. Come on, church.

You know it's going to be a pull. But God's going

to give us stability so that no matter what we

latch on to, we're going to have strength and

length. Amen? And we're going to break out on

the right hand and on the left hand. And God

said there's going to be increase. Hallelujah.

You look at Ezekiel 37, sometime when you've

got time, I won't try to preach it. That's a

message in itself, but it's begging me to preach

it. But look at that mess. Look at Ezekiel 37,

bones scattered all over the dead bones, all

over the valley. Where do these bones come from?

These bones are an army. They're an army that

has been decimated, an army that's been disintegrated,

an army that's been... dissected and scattered

all over the place. What brings them together?

A word of the Lord, a prophetic word, a call.

And God says, preach, prophesy to dead bones.

Dead bones. I've met quite a few of them in my

life. Boy, here's a whole valley full of them.

Can these bones live again? God says to the prophet.

And the prophet throws the ball back at God and

said, it's in your court. You know, Lord. He

said, yeah, I know, but I want you to know. Now

you get back there and prophesy to them. Say,

thus saith the Lord. Bones, hear the word of

the Lord. And they came together. There was a

great sound, a clatter, and every bone found

its counterpart. You know, the neck bone was

hooked up to the backbone, and the backbone got

hooked up to the... At Pentecost, 120 stakes

were tied to 3 ,000 cords. Somebody listen to

me. 120 stakes on the day of Pentecost with fire

coming out of their ears. Great flames of fire

on their head. Speaking in other tongues. And

these 120 were speaking 17 different dialects.

They were not talking heavenly languages. These

people were speaking known languages. Do you

understand that? Amen. These people were speaking

to all of Jerusalem and there were 17 distinct

nationalities there. and they all heard them

speak in their own colloquial expression. The

Greek there is very powerful. And they heard

them in their mother tongue, speaking like mama

used to speak. And they were ignorant and unlearned

fishermen, and whatever they were, peasants.

But God filled them with the Holy Ghost, and

120 stakes were driven there, and 3 ,000 cords

were tied to these stakes in one day. And then

the next day, 5 ,000. And the next day, 10 ,000.

Until the church exponentially exploded all over

Jerusalem. Now, can God do it again? Come on.

We're celebrating 100 years since Azusa Street.

If you'd have went to Azusa Street, there was

nothing there but an old livery stable. Stinking,

smelly, old warehouse. The main room in that

building that they swept and cleaned out was

20 feet by 30 feet. That was the size of that

church. But out of that little stable, that's

what it was, a livery stable and a building material

warehouse. Out of that little stable, the gospel

went all over the world and millions have received

the Holy Ghost since that day. Does anybody know

anything about our roots? Do you all realize

what an awesome thing God did? And he used a

one -eyed black brother. It's amazing. He said

they had one eye, but he could see more. That's

a little pun, but if you know the story. God

did an awesome thing. And out of that revival

that went for three and a half years, day and

night, 24 -7, thousands received the Holy Ghost.

And this was a seedbed that spread this gospel

all over the world. Somebody said, oh, leave

him alone. It'll blow over. It did. In every

nation of the world today, God's moving by Spirit.

All right? Now, here we are, and we're coming

to a very important part. The thing of which

I am a part is greater than the part I play.

The thing of which I am a part is greater than

the part I play. For where there is unity, there

is the grounds for the miraculous. Now, he said

start singing, church. Enlarge. Pull up your

stakes, look at them, investigate them, make

sure every one of you are committed. Amen? If

the Lord jerks you out of your socket, so be

it. He's not going to destroy you. He's going

to embellish you. He's going to strengthen you.

We have to strengthen those stakes. And then

he says he's going to tie the cords to you. And

I'm going to guarantee you, you're going to feel

the pull. You think you've got problems now?

What are you going to do when this thing busts

loose and it's 24 seven? Come on. I mean, you're

going to have to leave the haste. Just lay out

there, brother, because they're going to be revival.

You're going to be getting so many people saved

and baptized. You're going to have to put a pound

out here to get them all in there once. I'm telling

you. God's going to bring revival in this community

and in this place. If you're ready for it, if

you believe in it, God's going to get people

together that's going to reproduce very exponentially.

We're going to see growth like we've never seen

before. The church has that Post Falls, a little

town of 10 ,000 people, folks. Let me tell you

something. They have grown 247 % last year. How

do you explain that? I don't know of another

church in America that's growing at that per

capita rate. There are big churches all around

us. But I'm talking about exponentially. But

these are not just people coming and joining

a church. These are people being discipled and

loving it. Amen. A little boy was walking with

his pastor over in England in the big cathedrals

over there. We'd been over there different places.

And he was, the pastor was little boys walking

along with the pastors, the pastor explaining

this war memorial for those who died in service.

And the little boy looked up at his pastor and

said, what service, sir, morning or the evening

service? God has called us to enlargement. Many

of God's great leaders now are being tested now.

We have never been through, ourselves, our family,

have never been through a time of testing like

we have in this last few months. What does that

mean? God's forsaken us? Oh, no. No. We have

seen the grace of God in such an awesome way.

When our son was diagnosed two months ago, the

doctor gave him two months to live, maybe three.

What happened? He was making a presentation to

the world leaders of missions. And he told me,

he says, Dad, when I get up in the morning to

make my presentation, I fought the powers of

hell. God gave him a vision to reach these nations.

Two things. One is called finishing the task.

And that is getting the gospel to these unlanguaged

people. In other words, oral transmission, okay?

Discipling these nations. Nations. And the second

vision was awesome. That was birthed in him over

25 years ago. I remember it like the day it happened.

And I told him, I said, Mark, write this down

because this is going to happen. It's going to

come to pass. And he got up with this vision

of having massive concerts of prayer. Okay, that

was his vision, prayer and worship. In every

major city around the world. I'm talking about

Hong Kong, Singapore. Everywhere. Wherever great

people can gather. That was his vision. When

he got up. To speak. He said dad something grabbed

my throat. And he said try to choke me. I know

he said it was demonic. But folks. he struggled

through that presentation when he told this to

the world leaders who are there from all over

the world to hear this they were in tears weeping

and crying they came to mark said mark this is

the most powerful thing we've ever heard we are

going to back you we're going to supply everything

you need to get this job done but he went home

and he couldn't sleep his breath was going away

this thing was choking him he didn't know what

it was doctors treated him for bronchitis for

acid reflux and all of the things that doctors

do for about two months until he couldn't hardly

breathe. He was breathing through what he called

a cocktail straw. He said, just that much air.

His throat was closing right up. Finally, they

went to a specialist and he run a tube down,

a camera down his throat. He said, oh my goodness.

He said, you have a massive tumor in your throat.

They diagnosed it as cancer. When they put him

through the MRI, I want you to hear this because

This is something I've never heard in my life,

nor had the doctors, because they told us this

is one in millions. We'd never seen anything

like this. When they came through the MRI, the

MRI picture came back. It was so profound that

these doctors, the oncologists, the chief guys

in Southern California with UCI and all of the

major medical places, they all shared the information

on the Internet, and they showed the picture.

He said it was like a little hand, like a woman's

hand, a little tiny hand had reached around your

vocal cords and grabbed them, and the thumb is

pressing right on the cord to keep you from speaking.

The doctor was shivering when he told it. He's

a Jewish doctor. He don't know anything about

demons, I don't think, but we do. And let me

tell you, that demonic thing had grabbed his

throat. And when the doctor told him that, he

said, we can't operate because if we do, we have

to take your whole voice box out. We're going

to have to take your voice. Marcus said, oh,

no, no. The doctor said, well, what else can

we do? He said, well, he looked at the doctor,

and he's about his age. He said, what would you

do if it was your brother, if I was your brother?

He said, well, I wouldn't operate. He said, I'd

certainly go chemo. Mark said, well, whatever

I have to do, don't cut it out. I'm needing my

voice. God's given me a voice. Listen to me,

friends. Three or four nights after he got home

from the hospital, in the middle of the night,

an evil spirit came. You may not believe in this.

I don't know, but I do. I've been raised in the

supernatural. I've wrestled with the powers of

hell many, many nights. I know how. powerful

and real they are, but also know the power in

the name of Jesus, which is high above every

name, every power. This demonic thing stood by

his bed and he said, I woke up dad at three o

'clock in the morning and I heard this soothing,

subtle voice. It was a man's voice saying to

me, if you will back off your project of reaching

these nations and your project. of your concerts

of prayer around the world, then we'll back off

from you." And Marcus said, the Spirit of God

came on me, and I said, no deal. And I rolled

over and went to sleep. I spoke to him yesterday.

He says, They told me that I'd had three months

to live. They told me the trach would be in my

throat till December. But he says, last week,

the doctor called me and said, we can't explain

this, but this thing is shrinking. Your voice

is coming back perfect. You're breathing like

normal, man. We're taking the trach out. The

trach is out. And he said, Dad, yesterday, he

said, it's almost healed. It's almost together.

And he said, I feel wonderful. I feel strong.

He's been working in the field and doing his

ranch work around there and just loving it. He's

got three wonderful children and all love Jesus.

This little boy came up to him and said, Daddy.

He said, I'll tell you what. He said, you're

healed. Four years old. He said, he laid his

hands on me. He said, I felt the power of God.

They made signs and plastered them on the garage

wall and said, daddy's healed. When you drive

up there, it says it right on the wall. Daddy's

healed. I'm talking about power. What's God fixing

to do? I'll tell you what he's doing. He woke

Mark up again and he said, son, and gave him

a powerful prophetic word. You're going to reach

the nations not with just concerts of prayer,

but the miraculous. We're coming into a season

of the miraculous. Signs and wonders. And he

said, it's not going to be a one -man show. It's

just going to be the power of God present to

heal. And multitudes are going to be healed.

Now, he said, sing, O barren. You that have been

barren, I want you to start singing because enlargement

is coming. Listen to me. And the end of that

chapter, he said, no weapon formed against you

will prosper. And every tongue that rises against

you in judgment, you shall condemn. Now listen

to me carefully. I'm not talking about physical,

natural birthing now. We have prayed for multitudes

who were barren physically. But I'm talking about

spiritual birthing now. And every one of you

in this house are destined by God to bear children,

to bear fruit. to reproduce after your kind.

Am I telling the truth? Amen. It's not the shepherd

that has a sheep. It's the sheep that has a sheep.

Amen. And we're going to produce after our kind.

We're going to bring many into the kingdom of

God. Amen. Are you a candidate for God to operate

on you? How many would like an extreme makeover

like Sarah had? You don't even know what I'm

talking about, really, do you? I'm talking about

awesome. I'm talking about God taking a 90 -year

-old specimen and by all indications of her own

estimate, she was dead. I mean, her plumbing

was just completely not right. Her hormones had

long fled away. But how many know God visited

Sarah, brought her back into his salon, And gave

her an extreme makeover. She not only become

productive. And the old guy. Who also was dead.

Who considered not the deadness of his own body.

He was not weak in faith. But he was strong in

faith. By faith Sarah herself also received strength.

She became so gorgeous. That a king. Who could

have had anybody selected her for his harem?

It's in the Bible. I said, it's in the Bible.

You got to read this. It's in the Bible. You

talk about extreme makeover. Here's this gorgeous

chick at 90 that a king wants to put in his number

one. Spot in his harem list. God comes down in

the night and says, you touched that woman and

you're a dead man. Old Abimelech was scared to

death. God had already locked up every woman's

womb in the whole country. God put barrenness

all over his whole domain. That's in the Bible,

folks. The first major healing in the Bible.

was the healing of a nation of barren people.

I believe the great healing that's coming now,

the last healing, will be the bride of Christ

being healed of her barrenness. And we're going

to see production like we've never seen before.

We're going to see you getting your neighbor

saved, the grocery lady saved, the guy on the

airport. I mean, every day it happens. I see

it all the time. I had one yesterday. This guy

was just, oh, he's a... He's a big -time writer

for the movies. I didn't know this guy. He looked

like a drifter. I didn't know what he was. Dragging

a guitar along with him. He's the guy that wrote

the script for the Pirates. Big movie, whatever

they're called. Who? Pirates of the Caribbean.

I don't even know these guys. But anyhow, he's

written many of these major scripts. Didn't look

like nothing. I said, what about Jesus? Oh, he

said, I love Jesus. He says, I'm just into this

thing now. But he says, we get together with

our friends and we read the Bible and we pray.

Think about it. It's happening, folks, all over.

It's happening. Did you hear me? It's happening

all over. I could tell you on and on and on and

on. But it's happening. And people living right

next door to you are ready to be birthed into

the kingdom of God. Now, what does God have to

do? He has to do something in you. An extreme

makeover. I want you to come real quickly. We

got one minute. And all I want you to do is stand

here and present yourself. Hallelujah. And if

you'll come back to the next service, I'm so

excited. I can't hardly wait to hear what I got

to say. Because we're going to finish this. I

believe. I believe we will. But right now, I

want you to come up real close. Amen. Come on

up close. That's right. I've had a bath and brushed

my teeth. And I just want you to get real close

because what God's going to do is we're going

to touch somebody right on the shoulder. Just

put your hand on somebody's shoulder beside you.

And I'm going to pray for you. Now, listen to

me. You just, listen, you know this. If you're

a mama, you know, you just can't be a little

bit pregnant. And if you're a dad, you also know

that mama can't be just a little bit pregnant.

In other words, it's real. When God brings that

miraculous connection, when he overshadows you

with the Holy Ghost, as he will this morning,

you're going to go out of here a different person.

You're going to recognize that you are part of

a mighty construction job of God. You are in

a part of enlargement. You are part of this enlargement.

And God's going to set you in new territory.

You get ready for it because God's going to place

you in a strategic place. And maybe your place

is where you're going to be. I don't know, but

God's going to strengthen you where you are.

If he wants to move you, he can move you. You're

his, right? Anywhere he plants you. Let me tell

you this right now. Any way God moves you is

a promotion. Oh, you didn't really get that.

You really didn't get that. I need to say it

again. I said, any way God moves you is a promotion.

When you get your pink slip, look for the blue

one. When God gives you a move, He is not diminishing

you. He's ever increasing you. The path of the

just is like the shining light that shines more

and more and more unto the perfect day. All right?

Today, God's going to do a miracle. Amen. And

you too, brother. Right back there. Praise God.

The man in the blue shirt. What's your name?

Ken, God has not forgotten his call on your life.

You've got busy down through the years and done

a lot of stuff. And you thought you were helping

God out, but God's finally let you know. You

come to a place in your life saying, God, there's

not much left, but I want your will. Oh, you

may have stuff. I'm not talking about stuff,

stuff's available, but God has a purpose for

you. And I'm going to speak to you, Ken, as one

of this whole body. The gifts and the callings

of God are without repentance. God's called some

of you into mission work. God's called some of

you to evangelism. God's called some of you to

pastor churches. And you've been hiding in a

stuff. You've been saying, gee, nobody knows.

I'm not going to tell anybody. And I'm not going

to tell everybody right now who you are, but

I see you. And some of you are called into the

mission field. And you're wondering, my God,

how am I going to do it? How will I ever be able

to support my family? How am I going to make

it? Well, God said, you just trust me. Because

where his finger points, his hand is going to

supply. But the miracle's got to happen in your

heart today. Are you ready to be stretched? Father,

in Jesus' name, I lay my hands on these precious

folks. And I pray right now the spirit of faith,

the same faith that Sarah had when she left.

start singing start singing Sarah start singing

and start knitting booties hallelujah because

miracles are going to happen get ready church

you better be ready because revival is already

decreed on this body and you're going to see

hundreds and hundreds of young people coming

And you're going to have to sit up with them

in the night. And you're going to have to nurture

them. You're going to have to coddle them. You're

going to have to listen to their woes. And you're

going to have to pray them through. And you're

going to birth them and change their diapers

and everything else. Because Jesus is sending

babies into this house. Brand new born again

children. And we're going to see them baptized

by the scores. I say it by the word of the Lord.

Enlargement has come. And you're going to have

connections with people you've never connected

with. Connected with before. Get ready for it.

Hallelujah. Go ahead and say it. I'm pregnant.

Good. Don't scare your husband, but go ahead

and say it. Hallelujah. God bless you, Pastor.

What a great word. Would you just tell the Lord

we receive that and just thank Moses for a great

word. Amen. Amen.
