Sunday Message (Saturday PM) - Moses Vegh (June 24, 2006) | Life Bible Church

Brother Moses Vey. Hallelujah. I love you, Bill.

Hallelujah. Thank you very much. Thank you, Pastor.

What an honor it is to be here with all of you

folks here and wherever this place is. Only the

Lord can find this place, I tell you. And a few

grass farmers, but what a marvelous place. It's

just beautiful. The atmosphere is wonderful,

and it's great to be back here with you. I really

feel at home, really feel welcome, and it's been

so good to see the power of God moving in this

place and to hear what the Lord's saying. I enjoyed

the prayer time together. I especially appreciated

the freedom that your pastor gave to all of the

folks that were there in prayer just to express

themselves. Whatever the Lord's saying, the Bible

teaches us, he that hath an ear to hear, let

him hear. Eight times in the revelation of Jesus,

he said, he that hath an ear to hear, let him

hear. What the Spirit's saying. The voice of

God is continuous. Only our hearing is intermittent.

God's always speaking. Amen. He said, you call

on me and I'll answer you. What I was particularly

touched by this afternoon or this evening was

the quietness. You know, how many know you get

people on the phone and especially these... automated

phone calls that none of us like to get. And

they just start spilling off. You know right

away it's a tape. They're not wanting for you

to say anything. They just want to deliver themselves.

I think a lot of times we're that way when we

pray. We want to tell God how to do it, when

to do it, who to get, who not to get. And God

said, shh. I said, you call on me and I'll answer

you. And I will show you. I will show you. That's

God's promise. I will show you great and mighty

things you've never done. Amen? So this marvelous

body of people living on the edge of enlargement.

And that's the word the Lord's given me for you

tonight. But before, my good friend, Brother

Garlington used to say, before I preach, I'd

like to say something. And as I was praying specifically

for this meeting, and I do understand that we're

supposed to repeat these meetings. The message

is pretty well each time. We'll see what happens.

I can never promise to be exactly the same. But

I know God has people in every service that he

wants to reach. And he has a word for you tonight.

And he's brought you here for such a time as

this. But I want to give this prophetic word

to the church. This is something I felt for the

whole body as a preface to what I will be speaking

on. And it's in your Bible in Isaiah chapter

Isaiah 49 · chapter mention

49. Now I'm going to read from the Amplified

because I like the Amplified when it agrees with

my doctrine. But this is something remarkable

here where God said, Sing for joy, O heavens,

and be... joyful, O earth. Isaiah 49, verse 13.

Isaiah 49:13

All right. Are we all there? Amen. Page 939,

if you have the right Bible. All right. Sing

for joy, O heavens, and be joyful, O earth, and

break forth into singing, O mountains. For the

Lord has comforted his people and will have compassion

upon his afflicted. But Zion says, The Lord has

forsaken me and my Lord has forgotten me. Here

is God giving a tremendous encouragement to his

church, to his people. And the people respond

and say, yes, but God, you've forgotten me. And

the Lord, is there anybody here tonight that

feels like maybe the Lord even forgot your address

or your phone number? No, God knows where you

are. He knows all about you. And here's what

God says. And the Lord answered, Can a woman

forget her nursing child, that she should not

have compassion on the son of her womb? Oh, yes,

they may forget. Yet I will not forget you. That's

a promise from God for somebody here tonight

that needs to hear this. God says, I am not forgetting

you. And the reason is, I have you indelibly

engraved on the palms of both of my hands. God

says, I have a picture of you, a photograph of

you. I have you tattooed on my hands. And every

time I whoop you, I look at the picture. It's

not what you are now, but it's what you're going

to be. And you're being conformed into his image.

We're all going to look like Jesus when he gets

through with us. Amen. You may think you're really,

you know, the cat's pajamas, but we're all going

to look the same. Amen. You say, no. Well, God's

shaping us and conforming us into the image of

his dear son. That's his purpose, right? Now

here's what God says. Listen to me carefully.

I have your finished picture. I want you to think

about it. Life Bible Church, is this what this

place is called? Life Bible Church, God has your

finished picture. Not what you are right now.

But if you can handle it. It's what he has in

mind for you. What he's already projected. He's

already designed. He is the architect. He is

the contractor. He's the builder. He's the author.

He's the finisher. I mean, God never starts a

project that he don't finish. And if God has

anything to do with you, he's got everything

to do with you. Now you're getting there. Now,

Zion says, God's forsaken me and God's forgotten

me. But God said, how can I forget you? I've

already got your picture engraved on both of

the palms of my hands. So whatever I'm doing

in you has already been settled. It's finished.

I wish you could see beyond today as God does

see. I wish you could see the fulfillment of

all that God has already predicted for you. Amen.

Eye hasn't seen it. Ear hasn't heard it. The

heart couldn't even comprehend it. The things

that God has already prepared for you that love

him. That's in the Bible. Amen? So God's getting

you ready for that which he has already ready

for you. So he's processing us. Listen to this

word. This isn't all. This is just my preface.

This is not. Don't start the clock yet. He said,

your walls are continually before me. God's all

the time thinking about your environment. your

walls, your structure. And then he says, your

children and your builders are making haste.

Your children and your builders are coming. They're

coming in droves. Your children and your builders

make haste. but your destroyers and those who

laid you waste will go forth from you. Thank

you, brother. I got a little bit of fire, and

if I get a little water, we may have some steam.

Now, here's what God's saying to the church here,

way out here in the boonies of Oregon. I have

already destined your destiny. I have you already

in my plan and purpose. And God said two things

are going to happen. I'm going to send you children.

The same word for builders in the Hebrew, same

word for children is the same word for builders.

It literally means those which are building blocks.

Your sons and daughters, children, are coming

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

to put builders in your midst. And then I'm going

to take away from you the destroyers. That's

a heavy promise, folks. God said, I'm going to

send you builders, but I'm going to keep destroyers

away from you. A good thing to remember and a

better thing to do. Is always work with the builders

and not the wrecking crew. Amen. For as sure

as you're living, the enemy would like to tear

down. But Jesus didn't come to tear down. He

came to build up. He said, I will build my church.

And the gates of hell shall not prevail against

it. Amen. So here is a church. Life Bible Church.

with a sense of destiny and uncontrollable boldness,

living in the Word of God, who have received

Jesus Christ as Lord. These live in the unrestrainable

power of the Holy Ghost, becoming an incredible,

irresistible force. I'm talking about the members

of this church that have been transferred into

another kingdom where you all operate as citizens

and ambassadors and militia of the glorious kingdom

of Jesus Christ. For the father has drawn us

to himself out of the control and dominion of

darkness and transferred us into the kingdom

of his beloved son. We who have been born anew,

we have an inheritance in Jesus Christ. We are

somebody. And we're going someplace. And God

is more interested in building big people than

he is building big churches. Amen. Are you hearing

me? God is far more interested in building you

as an individual into the family and purpose

of God. And when we understand that, it's going

to make all the difference. All right, let's

turn the page over a couple of pages to chapter

54. Amen. How many know that chapter 54 follows

53? That's really deep, isn't it? Now in chapter

53 of Isaiah, we have the whole description of

the marvelous, holy, and awesome sacrifice of

Jesus Christ on the cross. Everything that Christ

suffered is portrayed here for us in Isaiah 53.

But it starts out with these words, and I think

this is very appropriate that I give you this

at the beginning. First of all, he said, who

has believed our report? And to whom is the arm

of the Lord been revealed? In other words, who

is it that's believing God's report? Now, the

Hebrew word there is very interesting because,

first of all, it's in the feminine. In the Hebrew,

we have masculine and feminine words. Here we

have it in the feminine and literally here's

what it says. Who is she who says amen to her

husband's report? Who is she, the wife, who agrees

with her husband? Because here we're being brought

into identity. I've heard a lot here tonight

about... about husband and wife and relationships,

and we are the bride of Christ. I've heard this

repeated several times, both here and in the

prayer room. And I was listening because I'm

on that wavelength. And you'll see where we're

going tonight. My message tonight is simply this.

It's time for enlargement. But God is calling

for his bride, his church, of which you and I

are members. Paul the apostle said we have been

delivered from the law. We're no longer under

that bondage so that we might be married to another.

That is even to Christ that we may bring forth

seed unto him. That's very powerful. Then he

goes on to tell us that we are espoused to Christ.

engaged to Christ. So therefore, he wants us

to keep our relationships pure. So we are the

bride of Christ. We are now the bride of Christ.

There's going to be a celebration one of these

days, but we're already committed and we're connected.

And he calls us his bride. It's a tremendous

principle that is a mystery. According to Paul's

letter to the Ephesians, it's a mystery, but

it's a marvelous mystery. And what he's saying

here is in chapter 53, I want to give you the

report, he says, but who is she that's going

to say amen to it? I hope it's us who are here

tonight. I hope we, every one of us can say,

yes, Lord, I say amen to the report. I believe

the report. Amen. All right? Now, as we go into

that 53rd chapter, we have the description of

the sufferings of our Christ. He was wounded

for our transgressions. He was bruised for our

iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was

upon him, and by his stripes we were healed.

All of us were like sheep gone astray, but the

Lord laid on him the iniquity of us all. Not

only did he die for our sins, as we heard so

beautifully tonight, in the blood of the Lamb,

but also for our afflictions, for our healing.

And I want to talk a little bit about that tonight

too. But first of all, let's look at chapter

54. After Christ has been crucified, vilified,

humiliated, and he makes his grave in with the

rich. The Bible said he was buried in a rich

man's tomb, just borrowed tomb because he didn't

need it very long. Hallelujah. Now, the Bible

says after his death and crucifixion and all

the physical sufferings he went through and the

fact that he was buried. Now then, the next verse,

the next word in the prophetic from Isaiah the

prophet is sing. Let's say it. Come on, with

a little more enthusiasm. Sing. Hallelujah. Why?

Why you think, no, let's not sing. Let's weep.

Let's mourn. We just buried a man. The man, Christ

Jesus. But he's not there. We don't mourn for

his physical death. The fact is we enter into

the triumph of his death, burial, and resurrection.

And so now the Lord says to the bride, sing,

O barren one. You who did not bear, break forth

into singing and cry loud. You who did not travail

with child, for the children of the desolate

one will be more than the children of the married

wife, says the Lord. Now here's what he says

to the church here. This is God's word to you

tonight. Enlarge the place of your tent. and

let them stretch forth the curtains of your habitation.

Spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen

thy stakes. Now here we have powerful directions

from the Lord. He said, I want you to start singing

in anticipation of a birthing that is already

decreed by God. And he said, I want you to get

happy about it now. I want you to start singing

and knitting booties. Some of you younger folks

don't know what that means. Maybe some of you

older ones don't either. Been a long time since

you knitted booties. But when you have anticipation

and when you have expectation, and we have a

term that says she's expecting. Well, you know,

moms, you can't be a little bit pregnant. You

know that. You either are or you're not. And

if you are, you know you are. And pretty well

everybody else knows you are after a while. All

right? Now, here's what he said. Sing, for thou

shalt break forth on the right hand and on the

left. and thy seed shall inherit the nations,

the Gentiles, which means the ethos, many nations,

and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

Fear not, for thou shalt not be ashamed, neither

be thou confounded, for thou shalt not be put

to shame, for thou shalt forget the shame of

thy youth. and shall not remember the reproach

of your widowhood anymore. And then in verse

13, and all your spiritual children shall be

discipled. They shall be taught by the Lord and

obedient to his will, and great shall be the

peace and undisturbed composure of your children.

Now, these powerful... powerful words speak to

us of something awesome that God wants to do

right here in Life Bible Family Church. Hallelujah.

For this is an hour. The church is triumphant.

I just, you know, there are over 70 different

definitions of the church in the Bible. The church

is called the ecclesia, which means the called

out ones. The church is called a mighty army

with banners. The church is called fair as the

moon and brighter than the sun. The church is

called many, many things in the Bible. The church

is called a soldier or an army. And all of these

definitions, the church is called a bride. One

of the most wonderful descriptions of the church,

it's called the kurikodom in the Greek, and it

means the habitation of God. It's the place where

he dwells. He dwells in the midst of the church.

He walks in the midst of the church. He loves

to come to this building when you're here. He

wouldn't be here just to see the hay out in the

field. He's here to see you. He didn't come here

just to get warm or hot or cold. He's always

even tempered. Amen. And he's been in the fire

and didn't burn. He's walked through the flood

and didn't drown. Amen? You can find him in the

South Pole or in the North Pole, or you can find

him out there in the Sahara, no matter where

you go. And I've been in about 80 different countries

now, and I find Jesus everywhere. And the amazing

thing is he speaks all the languages, and they

can talk to him, and he understands them. And

I say, oh, glory, hallelujah. Now, what are we

talking about? The church is triumphant. But

I want to say to the church, it's time for enlargement.

Enlargement. I'm not just talking about knocking

a wall out here and just getting all frenzied

and start building with mud and brick and mortar.

But I'm talking about something that's got to

happen in our heart before it happens out there.

Are you with me? It's moving time. You better

get ready because the Lord told me he's fixing

to do some awesome things here. He said he's

going to bring you a mighty wave of new birth.

And we're going to see sons and daughters born

into the kingdom of God like we haven't seen

before. We're going to see sons and daughters.

We're going to see multitudes of young people

come into Jesus. I was thrilled to hear our pastor

talking about the little puppet trailer going

out here. That's good. That's a good start. But

listen, we're going to see something that'll

transcend all of that. We're going to see God

sovereignly touching people all around this community,

and God's going to bring them in, but he's doing

something in your heart here tonight and tomorrow

morning and the next service. I think we have

two more services after this, but I know he's

going to continue this work. But I want to talk

to you about that because the winds of God are

blowing. We heard it tonight in the prophetic.

There's a great shaking going on. The Bible said

when he builds up Zion, when he builds up Zion,

the set time has come to favor Zion. And when

he builds up Zion, then he shall appear in his

glory. Psalms 102 verse 16. When God builds up

Psalms 102:16

Zion, when something is in the process of being

built up, there is an attendant glory. We don't

have to work it up. We don't have to try to pull

it down. We don't have to try to make it happen.

When God starts building something, his glory

is attendant. When he began a work in you, it

was the glory of God that came over you. His

glory come over you just as the Holy Ghost came

over Mary and she conceived and bore a son named

Jesus. There is a supernatural overshadowing

of the Holy Ghost that comes over every new convert,

everyone born, not of the will of the flesh,

not of the will of man, but by the will of God.

How many believe you're a miracle child? Well,

you are too. Amen. You're not just a normal has

-been. No, every one of you are significant to

God. God is absolutely awesome. He's an awesome

God. And all of his kids are awesome -ites. God

has never produced one insignificant child. Amen.

Now here's what the Lord says to his bride, the

one who says amen, the one who agrees with his

report. Whose report are you going to believe?

Who has believed the report of the Lord? I want

to talk to you a little bit about that in a moment,

but let's go back here to the text. What's he

saying to the church? Sing, O barren one. Why

should I sing? I've been barren. Do you understand,

folks, tonight we're living in a country that

has absolutely despised babies being born. We

have slaughtered 45 or to 50 million that we

know of in the last 30 years or so. A whole generation

of people have been murdered and wiped out. You

say, well, that's statistics. We read that in

the newspaper. But think about it. And then think

about the millions in America that cannot have

a baby. I'm talking about 12 to 15 million that

we know of that are infertile couples that are

crying and dying to have a baby. Over 200 ,000

test tube babies have been born since the first

one came out of the Petri tubes or dish, whatever.

What am I saying? I'm telling you folks that

we're not talking about some kind of artificial

birthing here. We're not talking about some mechanical

production. We're talking about Jesus Christ

coming in and birthing multitudes into the kingdom

of God supernaturally. And I believe that with

all my heart. And he said, I want you now to

enter into the finished work of the cross. Everything

he accomplished on the cross was to birth a church

that will make production and reproduce itself.

And he says to the bride, his bride, come on

and start singing. You've been barren, but you're

not going to be barren anymore. You've been barren

and ashamed. And that was a great reproach in

Bible times for a woman not be able to have a

child. And it still is a pain to multitudes today.

So I'm not here to hurt you and I'm not here

to bring up bad memories or anything else, but

I'm just preaching the Bible tonight to tell

you the premium that God puts upon children being

birthed into the family of God. We don't come

in here by any artificial dissemination. We come

in here by the holy word of God. born of royal

seed and we have the blood of Jesus cursing through

our veins. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. We have been

redeemed not with corruptible things such as

silver and gold, but with the precious blood

of the Lamb. Now he says to the bride, start

singing. And what he says to us furthermore is

enlarge. Let's say it. Enlarge the place. of

your tent. Now, what does that mean? God said

you're in a very, very self -restrained, self

-imposed boundary. I want you to get this in

your spirit because before we have the kind of

growth God wants to give this church, God has

to operate on us individually and give us largeness

of heart. We've got to have the capacity for

that which God wants to give us. In a business

world, my friends tell me they seldom put a one

ulcer man in a three ulcer job. Come on. We don't

put eight tons on the half -ton pickup. God knows

our boundary. God knows our limits. God knows

our capacity. But in order for us to see what

God wants to do in your, because all of you have

been praying. There's been a lot of prayer here.

There's a strong surge of prayer. And I hear

God saying, I hear you, I hear you, I hear you.

And we keep on calling on him. I think it's great

to get quiet. And listen to what the Holy Ghost

has got to say to the church at this time. And

I'm here because God sent me here. I'm not here

because I need a place to preach. It's not because

I just don't have anything else to do. No, but

God's been quieting me. And I'll tell you a little

bit about that as we go along. In the last several

months, we've been through some very severe times

of testing as a family. We've been through the

fire. We've been literally in the fire. And I'm

telling you, I know what it is to walk down through

the valley of the shadow of death. But I also

know what it is to have a shepherd whose rod

and his staff comforts us. We'll tell you about

that too in a moment. But here's what God's saying.

He said, enlarge your tent. In other words, the

place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth

the curtains of thy habitation. Spare not, say

spare not. Do you understand what that word literally

means? It means, come on, quit limiting God.

Don't you try to Even think about building according

to your little frame of reference. Spare not.

God's saying, blow it out there. Hallelujah.

See if you can outsize me. Hallelujah. See if

you can outmaneuver my greatest concepts for

you. You can't. You can't even begin. Eye hasn't

seen it. Ear hasn't heard it. There's no capacity.

in our human mind or heart to even contain that

which God has already planned and purposed for

his glorious church. And you're part of that

future in God. Now here's what God's saying.

Don't limit me by your self -imposed barriers.

Don't you put your little limitation on it. But

we like it where we are. I'm cozy here. I'm comfy.

I'm in my comfort zone. I don't want to be part

of a big church. I don't want to give up my little

warm, fuzzy feeling where I know everybody. You

know, what's going to happen if a whole bunch

of heathen come in here? Sinners, Lord. What's

going to happen to my little position? I'm shaking

you tonight. You're not going to ever be the

same. You will not leave this building like you

come in. See, what I love is the fact that I

know you folks personally. It doesn't matter

to me. So whatever I'm telling you is so big,

and it's so awesome, and it's so great. If you'll

hear the end of it, if you can hang on for the

ride, you're going to come out okay. Because

what God's saying to us here, when you talk about

enlarging your tent, do you know what that means?

First of all, in the eastern countries, where

we travel a lot, A man's wealth is measured by

the number of stakes. Let's say stakes. I'm not

talking about the Mormon church now. He said

a man's wealth is measured by the number of stakes

he has in his tent. So if he's a very wealthy

man, they call him a many -staked man. Okay?

Watch this now. The Lord's saying to his beautiful

bride, come on, honey, start singing. Because

you're going to have a baby. Not only a baby,

but babies. I mean, whole bunches of them. And

you're going to break out. And so what I want

you to do is get your tent ready. All right?

Are you hearing me? God said, I want you to prepare

a place in your heart and in your mind and in

your spirit. Enlargement comes in the heart.

Now he said, enlarge the place of your dwelling,

your tent. All right, what does that mean? Well,

first of all, you know and I know that if you're

going to enlarge your tent, you're going to have

to go and start pulling up stakes. And the stakes

have been comfortable for a long time. And some

of these stakes were shoved in the ground in

the time of revival and refreshing when everything

was soggy and wet and mucky. And you can push

a two -by -four down with your hand in that kind

of stuff. But where God's taking you, you're

going to have to have a point. And you're going

to have to have some steel wrapped around your

head. Because when the hammer comes down on you,

God don't want you splitting. You still want

enlargement? No, don't bother me. We like it

just like it is. It's cozy here. We're just sweet

and we just love one another and everything's

lovely. But God's got a host of people out here

just waiting for you to get ready. I'm saying

waiting for you to get ready because we've got

to have enlargement in our heart before it'll

happen out here. Amen. And he said, enlargement

is decreed on you. You're going to break forth

on the right hand and on the left, but it won't

happen until you do some things. And that is

get your stakes pulled. And that means all the

stakes. Now I'm telling you in a tent, there

are some main pillars that are very important.

And these are your eldership and leaders of the

house that are strategic stakes. But let me tell

you, the tent has a lot of little stakes too.

And some of them are looking significant. and

they don't look like they're important, but if

you know anything about a tent, and if you know

anything about a storm, every one of those stakes

are important, because if you jerk one of them

out, just get one or two of those loose, it'll

take the whole tent. I know I've been there.

And folks, you understand what I'm saying? So

God's coming among us. It's not a matter of big

guys, little guys, big shots, little shots. Oh

no. God says every one of you are important to

him. You all have a strategic place and God will

not put more on you than you can handle. He's

not going to make you a pillar in the middle

of the tent if you can only be a stake out here

to hold a flap down. But wherever God puts you,

you're going to stay and you're going to be fruitful

and you're going to be part of. the program of

God, and you're going to be part of the enlargements

of God that God has already declared and decreed

upon you. I want you to know, folks, in the last

several weeks, the Lord's been working me over.

I mean, from the inside out, we've had some very

devastating times. Our son, well, first of all,

my wife was diagnosed with cancer of the colon,

and this was a shock to our whole system. She

was feeling fine. We'd been on a long walk that

day. We were getting along great, and a doctor

called her up after she'd just been in for annual

checkup, and he said, are you standing up? She

said, of course I'm standing up. Well, you shouldn't

be. You should be laying down. You shouldn't

be able even to walk. She said, well, I just

came back from a big, long walk with my husband,

and he said, well, your blood count is so low,

you better go right to the emergency room. Whoa.

Talk about a shocker. And from that day on, it

was one blow after another. And we got through

the final analysis and diagnosis, and they found

this huge cancerous growth in her body, on her

colon, and they took a large section of her colon

out. All of this happening just like that. Bang,

bang, bang. My son wrote her a beautiful letter,

the most beautiful letter she said she ever received.

I don't know about what she did with the ones

I wrote her, but anyway. You moms know what's

really special when your son or your daughter

writes you, and it was very special. And I'm

glad he did, but he was trying to encourage her

heart. But little did he know that in two weeks'

time, he would be diagnosed with cancer of the

throat and given two or three months to live.

All of this like that. In the midst of all of

that, the doctor said, I think you better go

in for a checkup when he checked me over. I was

just there for my annual checkup, being a good

boy, just being myself and doing my own business.

He said, I think I found something here. I said,

oh, Jesus. All at once, when the clouds return

after the rain, I'm talking about being through

it in the last few weeks, the last few months.

But let me tell you something. I said, we're

going through it, even though I walk through

the valley. Of the shadow of death. Thou art

with me. Your rod and your staff come for me.

But let me tell you something. In the midst of

all of this, in the midst of our son being tested,

he had just made a presentation to the major

leaders of the missionary world. Literally, I'm

talking about Youth for Christ that has 27 ,000

employees. The man who heads that. All the main

guys were there at this meeting. And when he

went to this meeting, with a passion, with a

vision from God of how to reach the unreached

peoples of the earth and how to literally disciple

them that don't have a language even. They don't

even have a written language. And so God gave

him this vision. And then another vision of having

concerts of praise and worship and prayer. All

over the world. He didn't know what dimension

he was talking about, but he just had the outline

of it. You understand? And he was giving this

report. And as he got up to give this report,

he said, Dad, something grabbed me by the throat.

It was his words. And he was in Hawaii giving

this presentation at a very strategic missions

conference. The head of the Southern Baptists,

the head of every major missionary. The Jesus

film people that reach billions of people over

the years. You understand? They're all there.

And when he gave his report, they were all weeping

and crying because God had birthed this in Marcus'

heart. And they made him the chairman of their

whole missionary project. And all of a sudden,

he says, Dad, I got up to speak and that thing

grabbed me. He used those terms. The thing grabbed

me in my throat. And then he said, I thought

it was bronchitis. I thought it was this. And

they went back and the doctors checked him and

all of this, folks. Well, let me tell you something.

He's been planted by God in Idaho. I didn't like

him going to Idaho because we wanted him in Southern

California near us. But the Lord planted him

in Coeur d 'Alene, Idaho. And there in that place

where he was planted, he came back to his town

and they checked him again. And a doctor said,

look, it's probably acid reflux. He said, I can't

breathe. I can't breathe that night. My throat's

all shut up. And so I felt like I was breathing

through a little cocktail straw. You understand?

Just barely wheezing his breath out. So they

brought him. I said, don't take him anywhere

else. Bring him up there. down there where we

live. And they had the specialists there, the

best in that part of the country. And they looked

at him, and this is the truth, folks. The doctors

were in shock. They just didn't know how to treat

this thing. They didn't know what to say. He

said, one thing we're going to do is cut a tracheotomy

here in your throat. We have to get you breathing.

And they did that. And when they took the MRI,

the doctor came back in shock. He said, listen.

Of all the oncology we've done and all of our

specialists at UCI and everywhere else at Stanford,

because they put it on the internet and showed

all their colleagues, we've never seen anything

like this. They said, we actually have a picture

of a little tiny hand, like a woman's hand, that's

gripped your vocal cords and pressing with their

thumb right against it. You talk about a demonic

thing. And the doctors, when I talked to our

doctor, he said, I feel goosebumps all over me.

He said, I've never heard anything like that.

They hadn't seen anything like that, nor has

anybody that's in that particular field seen

anything like it. But let me tell you what God's

doing. Hallelujah. The trach is out. The tumor's

shrinking. And Marcus is breathing. And he preached

five times last weekend, Sunday in his own church,

not fully, but he spoke in all five services.

But they're in the midst of a church. Now, what

I'm saying to you is this, Pastor, is, and I

want you to hear this church. They're in a town

in Coeur d 'Alene, a small town. But beside that

is another town called Post Falls, if you all

know what I'm talking about. All right? 10 ,000

people in that town. Seven years ago, a young

man who was saved out of all kinds of evil things

that he was into, and he'll tell it, he tells

it every week, a guy just a living testimony

of the grace of God. This young man was saved,

filled with the Spirit of God, called to preach

the gospel, and he started with four people in

his house seven years ago. They are now, listen

to me, they're now averaging 6 ,500 people every

week. In their church. In a town of 10 ,000,

they had almost 10 ,000 on Easter weekend in

five services. Packed to the gills. And here's

the secret, folks. Here's the power. Listen to

me. 6 ,100 of these people, at least, maybe almost

65, but 61 to 6 ,200 right now of these people

are in a small group. meeting every week. And

these people are getting their neighbors saved.

And he told them, he said, look, folks, I don't

know what to do. We're at the end of ourselves.

We don't know. We're packed out. He said, how

many of you folks got loved ones you want to

get saved? And everybody puts their hands up.

He said, all right, what are you going to do

with them? Where are you going to put them? We

got to do something. Time of enlargement. Well,

in the midst of all of this, God gave our son

Marcus a vision. He's an elder there in the church,

and the pastor actually wants them to be on pastoral

staff. But every one of their pastors, Brother

Brad, have been raised in the church. Every one

of them have been trained in the church. Some

of them are AT &T executives. One's a carpenter

or a mechanic. And another guy, something else.

These are all the pastors. And they're all so

sold out to God. And what's happening is absolutely

exponential growth. So the pastor said, well,

we got to add on. We got a plan. And they prayed

a whole year. And while they prayed, they grew

247%. I'm talking about post falls. You know,

it's on the map. It's not far from here. Now,

what am I saying? What's happening, folks? And

the pastor stands up and gives his whole resume.

I happened to be there. Thank God. I heard it

from day one. He told the whole story. He said,

and please. Don't ask me how, because I don't

know. I have no idea how this happened. I don't

know how to tell anybody else other than we just

love Jesus and disciple people, and they're baptizing

every week, every week. 30 people were baptized

the weekend I was there, and they just keep coming,

miracle after miracle after miracle. Well, our

son Marcus was on the plane, and the elders had

gone off to look. Am I boring you? I'll get back

to my text. But this is so important, folks.

I've got to tell you this because we're walking

through it now. And you folks have been praying.

I know you've been praying. And I feel the prayers.

I feel the prayers of the saints like we've never

felt them before. I could stand here all night

and tell you awesome miracles of people praying

from all over the world. We're getting calls

from China and Africa and Asia. Everywhere they're

praying. And God's answering that prayer. I just

want to tell you. But Marcus was on the plane

just before he went into the hospital. The pastor

had asked him to come with his elders, and they

went around looking at big buildings, you know,

getting an idea how to build a building. And

so they were flying from city to city, and the

pastor had already agreed, you know, they're

going to build this building, and all aboard

and all the guys were all, yeah, okay, that's

fine, we'll do it. But on the plane, the Lord

gave my son a vision, and he was sitting by the

pastor. And he was afraid to tell the pastor

because the pastor was all hyped up about this

building and he didn't know how to, you know,

deflate him. Not really deflate him, but in a

way, yes. Because when you've got your mind set

and you want to do something a certain way and

you've got it all figured out, you really don't

need much God, do you? I don't mean that against

our pastor at all. No, I'm not saying that. But

I mean, in our natural thinking, we got it all

figured out. So I brought my son sitting beside

him and the Lord gives him this vision and he's

sitting there and he sees this vision of a man

picking up the pastor in a pickup truck and taking

him out of town. And they're riding along in

his truck and this man that's driving the truck

is a stranger sort of guy. My son don't know

him. But he knows that this guy is really intent

on talking to the pastor. So he's driving along.

He sees him in this truck. And this guy, the

driving truck starts weeping. And the pastor

is telling this guy in the truck about their

plans to build this building. And the guy starts

weeping. He said, well, pastor, let me just drive

you by. something here right on the main highway.

Where the church is now, folks, it's back in

the boonies. I mean, I couldn't hardly find it.

If I tried to find my way there, I mean, what

people do, they just come from everywhere and

they're finding the place. But you understand,

he's off the beaten path. So this guy takes him

out right on the main highway, the main road

that goes to Spokane from Coeur d 'Alene. And

he's out there and he says, pastor, I just want

to tell you, we have 118 acres right here. Well,

my son told the pastor, said, it's over 100 acres

this guy has. He's going to talk to you about

it. And he's going to be crying. And he's going

to be so anxious to do it. You'll know it's God.

The pastor said, he told the whole church. I

was there and my son sitting beside me. He said,

I got mad at that guy. He didn't tell who the

guy was. Thank God. But he said, I got mad at

that elder. I thought it was a conspiracy. And

he said, my natural flesh got up. And he said,

I thought, why in the world are you throwing

a monkey wrench in this thing now? We got it

all planned. So, you know, we got it all together.

And he said, I know it'll take three and a half

million to buy that property and any other property

that we looked at. And so we're just going to

make do. And my son saw the whole thing. And

furthermore, he told my son, he said, you know,

I'm not into this prophetic thing so much. This

is what he said. You know, he's kind of a, you

know, he's a great guy. Loves Jesus. Good Southern

Baptist background or whatever he is. I don't

know. But almost all of his staff are Spirit

-filled guys. I know that. But anyhow, he loves

them too. And he loves Marcus. And Marcus is

a tongue -talking whatever he is. Praise God.

So he says, He's telling this to the church.

This was awesome production, awesome presentation.

And he has it all together. And so this guy says,

look, pastor. He said, I just got saved here

a couple months ago. But he started weeping and

crying. He said, but my wife and I can't quit

talking about our responsibility. He said, we

own this land. He says, but my brother owns half

of it. I own half. And he said, it's worth well

over $4 million. But he says, I'll tell you what,

I want to give you my half for sure. And right

now, he said, if you'll just pay my brother his

half, because he's not a Christian yet, he's

not in yet, but he'll probably bring it in pretty

soon. But anyhow, I mean, it was there. And the

fact of it is, it came to pass exactly like God

said it. You see, the word of the Lord is powerful.

The Lord God said, Amos 3, 7, the Lord God will

not do anything except he first reveals his secret

to his servants, the prophets. Amen. God always

says something before he does something. In the

beginning was the word. And then the word was

with God and the word was God. And that word

became flesh and dwelt among us. Now, let me

tell you what's happening. You see, this church

has exploded exponentially. Why? Because of simple

faith. This man of God told the story how God

sent him there and he didn't want to go there.

He didn't want to start a church. He didn't want

to plant a church. His daddy was a pastor. He

didn't want to be a senior pastor. He didn't

want. Well, listen, God has some other plans

for us. You know, a lot of stuff we don't want.

God seems to have a way of turning our hearts,

doesn't he? Amen. And so here's a guy in spite

of himself having the fastest growing church

per capita, as far as I know, anywhere in the

nation or in the world. Because it's growing

exponentially. And they're expanding so rapidly.

But here's the secret, folks. It's not just getting

people to sign a card or to join the church.

It's getting people, discipling them. And all

of these people are discipling others. Do you

hear me? Do you hear me? Do you hear me? We're

going to produce children that will produce children.

We're going to produce children that will produce

after their kind. We're going to produce newborn

babes that are going to get other people saved.

Nobody... in the world is any more powerful than

a brand new convert. Come on. Do you remember

your zeal? Do you remember how you were when

you first got saved? Come on. That first love

is awesome. And when you do, you're going to

birth multitudes into the kingdom of God. All

right. Now he said the church is talking about

new commitment. Check your bulwarks. This is

what the Holy Spirit spoke to me. I want you

to check your stakes. I want you to check your

bulwarks. I want you to check your placements.

I want you to check the fidelity in this body.

God's coming among us with new direction, with

new marching orders, and God's going to raise

up new leadership. You're going to see people

coming up into leadership in this house that

will astound you. God's going to put people into

this place. And let me tell you something. The

Lord seldom imports pillars. He makes them on

the job. In the book of Revelation, he said to

him that overcometh, I'll make him to be a pillar

in the house of my God, and he shall not go out

anymore. In other words, he'll plant you there.

He'll place you there. And the amazing thing

is, he said, I'll even put my name on the product.

After I whittle that pillar out of the stock

of rough old tree that comes in there, whatever

it is, it may look awful burly and rough, but

God said when I get done with it, I'll have enough

pride in my work to put my name on it. Amen.

Now the quality goes in before the name goes

on. Hallelujah. And he's talking about new leadership

coming, Pastor. He's talking about men and women

of God on the stretch for God. God never seemed

to use a man in history because he'd arrived,

but because he was willing to go somewhere with

God. And God's not only going to use men, God's

going to use women. Some of God's greatest men

are women. Got to watch how I say that in California,

but anyhow. We're talking about men like Jabez

in the Bible who prayed, oh God. Enlarge my borders

in righteousness. God, stretch me. God, give

me the capacity. God, give me the heart of enlargement.

And in order to do that, you're going to start

singing. You're not going to be bad -mouthing.

You're not going to be brow -beating somebody.

But you're going to get in and start whistling

a tune. You're going to start knitting booties.

Hallelujah. Pull out. the curtains. Stretch them

out. What are the curtains? That's our covering.

We'll understand and have a great respect for

the five -fold ministry that God has set over

the church. Amen. We need to stretch our curtains.

And then God said, listen to me. God said, strengthen

your stakes. And then lengthen your cords. I

want to talk about that a little bit here. After

we start singing, we're going to break forth

like Sarah did. Oh, hallelujah. By faith, Sarah

herself, it says, believed God and received strength

and delivered a child. Let me tell you something

about Sarah. She was 90 years old. Come on. How

many know when you're 90, it's kind of you're

over the hill? I've got a ways to go yet. Hallelujah.

But Hera's sister, Sarah, never had a baby. She

had no knowledge of having a baby. She couldn't

understand the mechanics of it. But everything

that made babies in her was dried up. Old. The

Bible said that she didn't consider the deadness

of her womb. Well, let me tell you about my God.

Oh, my God. When he came down there and visited

Brother Abraham, his friend, and Abraham washed

God's feet, well, he did too. And then he told

his wife to run and fetch a calf and get it killed

and make some good veal paprikash. If you don't

know what that is, you're missing everything.

And so she's out there in the next tent dressing

that calf and making dinner for God. And like

every good wife, she's listening at the tent

flap. What the guys are talking about. And God

says, next year about this time, I'm going to

visit Sarah. And Sarah is going to have a baby.

And Sarah busted out laughing. She said, that's

a joke. God said, I hear you laughing. Oh, no,

God, I'm not laughing. Oh, yes, you're laughing,

but you're good. That's all right. Just keep

laughing. Just keep laughing. Now, something

happened when God touched Sarah. You talk about

an extreme makeover. I mean, God lifted up everything

that had sagged down. God proportioned her. And

listen to me, I'm talking about the Bible where

you say, where do you get this? In the Bible.

You have to read between the lines, but it's

there. And the devil tried to mess this thing

up. Here she is, 90 years old, a knockout. She

was gorgeous. Talk about hormones. Talk about

buildup. Talk about, I mean, ain't nobody, nobody

had a makeover like this dear lady did. She was

gorgeous. She would not only physically fit,

but she was gorgeous in so much that Abimelech,

the king of a whole country, Saw her out there.

Said, fetch me that young chick. That's in Aramaic.

And he did. He sent his guys out there from the

harem and said, you just put her right on number

one list. Right there. Number one stall. Because

he had lots of them. Put her in number one slot.

Amen. She's a prize. And he start paying off

her so -called brother. Oh, boy, Abraham's quite

a guy. You know, he really was. He said, really,

she's my sister. We won't go down that road.

Let's stay with Sarah. It's more exciting. God

came to that Abimelech that night. Listen to

me carefully now. God's got to heal the church

of barrenness. The first, God's got to heal the

church of barrenness. And there's a reproach

to that. But God said, I'm not only going to

heal this church, I'm talking about us. But he

said, I'm going to take away the shame. I'm going

to take away the reproach. That night, God came

down on that king, Abimelech, and said, listen,

son, you touch that woman and you're a dead man.

And just in case you think I'm kidding, I've

already locked up, listen to me, I've already

locked up every womb in your kingdom. Every woman

under your kingship is barren from this moment

on. There'll be no more production. You touch

her, you're a dead man. My God. You talk about

scaring a man. He screamed out, oh my God. I

didn't know. He said, that's my prophet out there.

And that's his wife. And don't you mess with

what I want done because she's going to bear

a son according to my word. Listen to me, church.

We're on the very threshold. of an awesome breakthrough

in God. He said, you're going to bust out on

the right hand and on the left. The first, listen

to me, the first miracle in the Bible of healing,

the first miracle was the healing of barrenness.

I believe the last miracle in the Bible is going

to be the healing of a barren church. And we're

not going to just see people coming, to join

our friendly atmosphere. They're going to be

born again into the family of God because God

doesn't have any grandkids. He has sons and daughters.

Amen. Are you with me? Are you hearing me tonight?

And so what God's saying to the church right

here, what I sense in my spirit so strongly,

listen, God's saying to the church, get ready

because you're going to break out on the right

hand. And on the left, you're going to see a

vision without boundaries. You're going to see

God stretching you. And he said, you shall embrace,

listen, you shall embrace many ethnos, many nations.

We're going to see people from all kinds of backgrounds.

coming into the kingdom of God. I don't know

what's out here in your demographics in this

country, but whatever's out there, God said,

I want them all. I am not going to shout on anybody.

And I'm talking about every kind of race and

color and creed and people. Folks, we don't have

a right to go to Africa if we can't believe God

can save our neighbor over here. You understand

what I'm saying? We've got to believe God to

break down in us any kind of resistance to whatever

God wants to do. Listen, we old Pentecostals

were so strong on this for years and I was, I

were one. So I understand it. But you know, we

try to clean our fish before we caught them.

God said, I'm no respecter of persons. He said,

Peter, rise, slay, and eat. You know the vision

he had, Acts chapter 9. Oh, no, Lord, I'm not

Acts 9 · chapter mention

going to get into that creepy, crawly stuff.

God said, you better, or you're a dead man. Amen?

Don't you call that which I've called clean,

unclean. Don't you try to label something different

than I've labeled it. Amen? And so let's remember

this. I know this is sombering. I know this is

sobering because it's not going to be just people

that fit into our little ethnic concept. We better

get ready for whoever God wants to bring in.

We've got to get ready. Amen. One of the greatest

miracles that happened at Post Falls. How many

remember the Groney family where the children

were kidnapped and the whole family was slaughtered

just about a year ago? Okay. The father of those

children was actually the first suspect because

he looked like a very rough character. He wasn't

living with his family, but they called him in

as a suspect. It was all on the news. It was

everywhere. Well, that man, two months ago, that

man contracted throat cancer just about the same

time Marcus did. They had been praying for him

day and night. His children had been praying

because his children went to school with those

little children that were kidnapped. And one

of them was killed. And the little girl still

goes to school with their children. So they're

very close. In fact, it happened very close to

where they live. But in the meantime, about two

months ago, this man was contracted cancer and

came to the church and asked them to pray for

him. And he got saved. And they began to pray

for his healing. In the meantime, his little

girl got saved about two weeks ago when we were

there that Sunday. Marcus is now tutoring them

and getting them ready. And the pastor wants

him to baptize that whole bunch. That's the power

of God. Folks, God's fixing to do something awesome

in this place. And we're going to see signs and

wonders and miracles. Let me just say this to

you individually. When the horse is dead, dismount.

we've got to quit beating some of our old dead

horses. We've got some old brain dead projects

that need to go in our personal life, in our

imagination. Many of you people are restrained

by false burdens that don't belong to you, that

devil put on you and told you you should have

done this and should have done that because you

didn't do that. Therefore, you can't do anything

else. It's time to settle that, folks. This is

God's time to say, get out of that little frame

of mind, and we're going to see enlargement.

Say enlargement. Keep saying it. Say enlargement.

Write it on big word, big letters on your mirror

in the bathroom. Say enlargement. Hallelujah.

Take Bon Ami and write it on there, whatever.

Do you know what Bon Ami is? You don't know that.

Okay. Some of you older folks do. Here's what

God's saying. Here's what I want to do in this

church. I want to strengthen the stakes. God's

coming to investigate us. It's okay. He has a

right. He's the Lord of this church. He's the

builder. He's the architect. He is the author.

He's the finisher. And he's coming to check us

out. And sometimes when he jerks us out of our

comfort zone, we don't like what we see. Because

some of those stakes are not as strong as we

thought they were. They may have a little termite

work on them. They may have some dry rot. They

may have some stuff on them that God's not going

to throw them in the fire. He may have to cut

them down to size and sharpen them again. But

every one of us are vital to God. You see, he's

not here to destroy us. He's here to plant us.

He's here to strengthen us. Now, listen to me

carefully. We've got to have strength. Oh, my

God. We have to have strength before length.

I'll finish this tomorrow. You'll come back.

Anyhow, we have to have strength before we can

have length. Then he said, lengthen your cords.

This is very critical to me, Pastor. I'm prophesying

this, that God's going to give you completely

new relationships with ministries you've never

connected with before. These cords are going

to go far out. They're going to go far out. But

we've got to have strength here to hold those

cords. We cannot extend these cords any further

than our stakes can hold. See, I'm speaking to

you prophetically. God wants to enlarge you,

pastor, enlarge your staff, enlarge your vision,

and open new doors of relationships to you. These

cords represent new ties, new relationships,

and that's going to bring life and vitality like

you never dreamed possible into this house. It's

not an accident that God brought us together,

brother. It's not because I'm anything, but it's

because in God's economy, he's everything. But

he arranges our steps and our stops. Amen? He

does that. For a reason, because God wants us

to have this awesome business of cross -pollination.

We need to cross -pollinate. We need new life.

We need new understanding. We need new relationships

in the body of Christ. See, we can get so centered

until it's us four and no more. But God wants

us to see beyond our borders. Amen? Now. What

he wants to do is bring a special sense of birthing.

And I feel this is time right now to do this.

Many years ago, among the other gifts that God

gave me, in his wonderful, wonderful, matchless

grace, and it's all by his grace because everything

we have is by his grace. It's all been received,

not achieved. Okay? You got that? Okay. I'm fully

aware of that. But God put something on me that

I didn't ask for. And it happened in Brother

Kightley's church many, many years ago. We were

in the midst of the hippie revival. And some

of you are here tonight. And so, you know the

old beetle bus you had and the psychedelic pain

on it and all that stuff. Well, anyhow, I was

preaching in this meeting and there were scores

of young people that got saved. during that time

i'm talking about berkeley berserkly people and

they were there and there were all kinds of them

from all different ethnic ethnos i was closing

the meeting like i'm doing right now and i felt

in my spirit these kids many of them been saved

about you know six months maybe a year but they

were really just having a hard time finding out

their identity. And they had been so used to

living communal, you know, they lived in communes

and done the thing. But Mama Kitely, she's like

a mother hen. I mean, she put the kibosh on all

that stuff and she got them living good. But

now they were terrified at the prospect of marriage.

I didn't know this, but the Holy Ghost showed

me. And I thought, well, I said, here goes. I'm

going to take a chance on it. Here goes. I said,

there's people here tonight that have been afraid

to get married. I was thinking three or four

people, maybe two. And I made the statement,

and I just made a humble appeal, and I said,

I don't know why, but I feel anointed to pray

for you, to take the fear off of you, give you

the liberty to go out and find a good wife, husband,

whatever, and you'll find them. They're here.

They're all around you. And they looked at me

in shock. And that pastor, Violet, you know,

you've got to know her. She's like a little dandy

rooster. She's praying in tongues. Where is this

guy taking us? I didn't know. But what happened

that night, I don't know, about 70, I think,

60 or 70 kids came up. We prayed for them. Well,

Pastor David called me a few months later. He

said, Brother Moses, he's going to come over

and help me. He said, every Sunday we're having

three or four weddings. We've turned our Sunday

evenings into just weddings and all communal

things. And they're all celebrating. And that's

good. So about a year later, he had me come back

and preach. And I'm preaching like this, just

closing the meeting. All of a sudden, I feel

this incredible sense of now. Come on me. I said,

you know. There may be one or two of you people

out here that are having trouble having a baby.

And maybe you want somebody to pray for you.

I said, I don't know why I'm doing this because

I haven't done this before. But if you're here

and you want help, I have faith that God's going

to break the spirit of barrenness. Well, here

comes this mob. Serious. They come up and I don't

know how long it was I was up there praying.

They're all legitimately married couples now.

About a year later, Pastor David calls me again.

He said, you better come up here and help me

raise some money because we need nurseries like

you wouldn't believe. He said, babies are coming

everywhere. I mean, they're just prolific. The

spirit of faith came. God started something in

me. And since that time, I'm not exaggerating,

we have prayed for multitudes of people. And

some of them were really, really stretched my

faith. Some of them looked like Sarah, I'm telling

you, that came up. And they had babies. I mean,

that just, it's unbelievable. I don't mean after

she had the extreme makeover either. I'm talking

about before. But what I'm saying here, we were

preaching in a meeting and God spoke to me. I

was standing on the platform by the pastor. He

was my dear friend. He's a prophet. If I mentioned

his name, you'd know him. Had a large church.

Been married 10 years. No children. They couldn't

have a baby. Beautiful wife. He's a vibrant young

man and all of that. And I'm standing there beside

him. He said, and the Lord said to me, tell him

that they're going to have a baby. So I just

leaned over and whispered to him while the worship's

going on, you know, and he froze. His eyes got

big as saucers. He looked like he'd been shot.

He just stood there. He had a way of expressing

himself that was very unique. And he said to

me, oh, he says, Moses. Okay. It's up to you.

I mean, God just told me. I mean, if you want.

No, he says, you don't understand. We've had

all kinds of prophecies over us for years and

nothing happens. And he said, if this doesn't

come to pass, this might strain our relationships.

That's what he said to me. I said, it's up to

you, pal. But in that instant, he was absolutely

gripped by the word, you see. But faith hadn't

come yet. In about 10 seconds, I saw it. It hit

his face like that. Yes! I believe. I said, okay.

Now we're ready to do business. And the Holy

Ghost gave me a powerful prophetic vision. And

I said, listen to me. This is first. The natural.

This pastor and his wife, who've been trying

for 10 years, are going to have a baby. And I

don't do this, believe me, I don't do this lightly.

And I don't do it unless the Holy Ghost tells

me to do it. And I'm not about to advertise here

tonight for a job. I'm not looking for that kind

of prayer. I'm just saying what God told me to

tell you. But in that instant, I saw it. I saw

it. I saw literally. Hundreds and hundreds, in

fact, thousands of people getting saved in that

church. I said, first the natural. This baby

is going to be a sign of a breakthrough of birthing

in this body. There was about a thousand people

there that morning. And the spirit of faith that

came on that pastor came on the congregation.

I didn't know it, but I just flat told the people,

I said, look. This is yours if you want it. If

you're out here and you're barren and you want

a baby, this is your time. Grab it because it's

here. It's right now. And I'm not going to lay

hands on you or anything. You just take it by

faith, by the word of the Lord. And then I prophesied

what was going to happen, that there would be

multitudes of people saved after this natural

birthing. This would break out. And I went a

step further, which I very reluctantly do ever.

But that morning, it was so strong, I told him,

the time that I'm coming back to dedicate that

baby. Now, I don't say this to glorify Moses'

baby because I'm telling you, I'm shivering now

because this is scary stuff. And I don't do this

lightly. Please understand that. But it came

to pass. And we came back on that date that I

told him I'd be there to dedicate that child.

Within the year. And he tormented me for months.

Would not tell me that she was pregnant. The

very week after. The word of the Lord came to

her. She was pregnant. And he wouldn't tell me.

Tormented me. Even had me come back and preach.

About four months. By that time she couldn't

hardly hide it. Because I could see the difference.

And he finally admitted it to the congregation

that morning. First time he wanted me to be there.

But listen, folks. When we dedicated that little

boy, their pride and joy, we had at least 15

other babies that we dedicated that morning.

And one of them, by the word of the Lord, was

a woman that had multiple miscarriages. I just

said multiple. I didn't know. But this woman

had nine miscarriages, and she brought this one

to full term. We had a whole line of them all

there. They all got pregnant within about the

same matter of days. Now, what happened? A revival

broke out, and that church began to explode.

They couldn't hold the people in the building.

They had to go to the fairgrounds. They had over

2 ,000 people. The last count I had that come

to Jesus. Spiritual birth. First the natural,

then the spiritual. This evening, I'm going to

ask the church to consciously step up to the

Lord's plate and say, Father, break in me every

spirit of barrenness. I'm not talking about natural.

Don't get scared now. One woman said in that

meeting, all I did was carry his briefcase out.

But people didn't know. But this was God's time

visit. And I'm not playing games with you tonight.

I'm just telling you actual facts of things that

God did do and how it relates to the spiritual.

God uses this terminology to get our attention.

Amen? We're going to break out on the right hand

and on the left. And maybe you've had heartaches.

Maybe you've had broken dreams and all of that.
