  1. Hi, and welcome to the, we are Zion sermon podcast.

  2. We are a local church based here in Chennai, India, we are so

  3. glad you are with us and hope that this will encourage

  4. Inspire, and in still, fresh faith, in you as we celebrate

  5. the day of Pentecost, we invite you into a time of meditating on

  6. the Holy Spirit. We often look for breakthrough

  7. through a massive Life-altering moment.

  8. But most often breakthrough comes to the ongoing work of the

  9. holy spirit in our everyday lives.

  10. How committed are we to Opening Our Lives to the holy spirit so

  11. that he can make us more like Jesus will you invite him in and

  12. give him room? Hi church.

  13. It's a joy and a privilege that I get to stand here and minister

  14. to you, even as we take some time to get into God's word, I

  15. believe over the last two weeks, as we've been seeing about the

  16. Holy Spirit as the fire and as the wind, I believe he's been

  17. doing something the entire world celebrates Pentecost Sunday

  18. today and even as we take some time to look back at what

  19. happened in the upper room, where Disciples of eating.

  20. I believe God has a word for us where he wants us to rely on

  21. him. He wants us to know that he is

  22. for us, many times. You fail to understand that the

  23. spirit that works in and through us is for us and we always as

  24. you know, over the last two weeks we saw he shapes us with

  25. the wind, he moves, he removes all the old and he no breaks in

  26. the new. He makes us comfortable in who

  27. he's calling us to be. B, and I loved how Jaron brought

  28. about the whole thing of, you know, the perfect love and

  29. perfect Community exists within the Triune God, he talked about

  30. the father Son and the Holy Spirit and how they, three

  31. coexist together in perfect. Unity, there's no hierarchy

  32. there. And as we were looking at that,

  33. we also saw that we as a community have to live that way,

  34. but there's no hierarchy, we all are the same till we see.

  35. Jesus face to face. And so today, even as we go into

  36. the third part, today's title is Spirit breakthrough.

  37. I believe, as a church, we will experience the Holy Spirit

  38. breaking through as the word that God gave us.

  39. As we started this month was breakthrough and I believe he

  40. wants to move in us. He wants to move ahead of us.

  41. A lot of times, we fail to understand that, you know what,

  42. when the spirit breaks through, he's the one who's going front.

  43. He's the one who's leading us and so today as we celebrate the

  44. day of Pentecost, you know, ten years from now, it's going to be

  45. two thousand years since the world experienced the day of

  46. Pentecost together. It's a day when every language

  47. every tried had access to the gospel.

  48. By the Holy Spirit, came upon those 120 there, and they were

  49. able to shed. And today, we are all Witnesses

  50. of that. We all believe in Jesus as the

  51. true and living King. And I want to come today to a

  52. place where we will not live another day.

  53. Without the Holy Spirit. I was reading through some of

  54. the notes of Reinhard bonnke, and he is passionate about the

  55. Holy Spirit. And he constantly says, if Jesus

  56. needed the Holy Spirit, Jesus was conceived by the Holy

  57. Spirit. Even when he became a man and

  58. when he went to John the Baptist seven, he got baptized in the

  59. Holy Spirit, came on him like a dove.

  60. And when he came on him, like a doubt, it is from then on, he

  61. was able to Minister in the power of the Holy Spirit.

  62. Perfect man. Lead it the Holy Spirit

  63. imperfect man. Desperately needs the Holy

  64. Spirit. You and I are not exempt from

  65. Not Having the Holy Spirit work in and through us.

  66. So even right now I just want to read Acts chapter 2 verses 1 to

    Acts 2:1–4

  67. 4 and then we will go into the main scripture that we've taken

  68. for today's passage acts to was his 124 in.

  69. This is what it says, when the day of Pentecost came, they were

  70. all together in one. Please suddenly a sound like the

  71. blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole

  72. house where they were sitting, they saw what seemed to be

  73. tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of

  74. them. All of them were filled with the

  75. Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as the spirit

  76. enabled them. The holy spirit is for all.

  77. If there's one thing I want you to get disease for all, he's not

  78. for a select few. So today, as a church, our

  79. desire is that the Holy Spirit Will fall on each and every one

  80. of us. He saw that the fire came

  81. specifically on each and every one who has heated them and my

  82. prayer is that even as you're watching this or listening to

  83. this, you know, a week later or a year later of whenever that

  84. you will experience the Holy Spirit Come of fresh right now

  85. on you, you know, many times you scared by the manifestation of

  86. the holy spirit in and through us that causes us to resist him

  87. that, you know, pop culture has shown you know what?

  88. Have what been filled with the Holy Spirit.

  89. Have, you know, really done. But even as we heard in the last

  90. two weeks and then, as we hear this week, my references to

  91. water liking the Holy Spirit to water, and you will see that

  92. it's in that controlled manner of the holy spirit that it is

  93. the most powerful last week even when Jeremy was talking, he said

  94. those controlled Flames. Do you lot of good?

  95. They bring about purity and I believe Eve.

  96. That's a mark of the Holy Spirit as much as he falls on everyone

  97. as much as there's a Revival as much as there's you know, people

  98. speaking out in different tongues, May that not scare us

  99. but may this Draught closer because we need and more than

  100. ever before. So even as I said today, I'm

  101. referencing the Holy Spirit to water like believe, you know,

  102. for a lot of us we've seen what water looks like.

  103. It's nice to sit in the beach here.

  104. The waves in the living room motion.

  105. Come or probably by a lake, which is quiet and just see the

  106. calmness of it. But there's this other side, I

  107. used to watch these shows or Nancy over these guys were in

  108. these Waters which was so, you know, trouble than, you know,

  109. literally and they were like fishing crab and doing things

  110. like that water can be merciless at the same time.

  111. What water can be coming? And I believe one of the fastest

  112. of the holy spirit is he's also mausolus.

  113. He doesn't like Injustice within his people, especially when

  114. those who accepted him, he doesn't love the fact that, you

  115. know, we indulge in other things and you know, negate the fact

  116. that he is residing in us. That's why it says constantly.

  117. You know, Paul writes your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit.

  118. When we are marked by a savior. When we've been bought by a

  119. precious price. The room that the Holy Spirit

  120. resides in his holy And so today this Holy Spirit wants to do

  121. something in and through US. Aw Tozer sees this matter bumps

  122. against other matter and stops. It cannot penetrate Spirit can

  123. penetrate everything. The Holy Spirit.

  124. Can penetrate everything John chapter 7 which is our reference

    John 7 chapter mention

  125. passage for today. Goes on to say was is 37 to 39

  126. on the last and the greatest day of the festival.

  127. Jesus stood and said in a loud voice.

  128. Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink whoever believes

  129. in A scripture said, rivers of Living Water will flow from

  130. within them by this. He meant the spirit whom those

  131. who believed in him were later to receive up to that time.

  132. The spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been

  133. glorified. And so, Jesus is standing here

  134. at the temple. And even as we read, what the

  135. historians say, the practice of the Jewish priests, at that

  136. time, where they used to go and fetch water in a golden pitch

  137. up. From the gihon spring and as he

  138. fixed it, they do walk all the way up.

  139. They will come with that picture and on the back of the

  140. Watergate. They would bring it to the Altar

  141. and they would pour it. They did this seven days on the

  142. seventh day, they did seven times and the, our prayer was

  143. God as Autumn comes. Maybe not have Draught bring

  144. rain. And the second thing is they

  145. remembered that God provided water, even in the desert, and

  146. this is where Jesus is telling them.

  147. As much as you do this physically, you need to do this

  148. spiritual, you need to long for the water that can come from me

  149. the Living Water. It's today, the holy spirit is

  150. likened to a living water because in this day that we are

  151. living in, there are so many areas in our life that we need

  152. the Holy Spirit. And I believe some of the

  153. characteristics of though of water that we see some of the

  154. characteristics of the spirit PC, as we are referencing both

  155. together. We will see that He is wanting

  156. to do, Great and Mighty things. So today if you notice one

  157. thing, the Jews had unbelief even as Jesus spoke and I want

  158. us to emphasize on that because a lot of us today carry on me

  159. for my first point today. The spirit breaks through every

  160. unbelief, the spirit breaks through every unbelief, even as

  161. Jesus was standing there and actually telling living Water

  162. many question them, many didn't understand, but I believe

  163. unbelief cannot be a part if we need to see the spirit

  164. breakthrough. Today I have unbelief, I'm

  165. raising my hand here. I have unbelief.

  166. I have unbelief over the work that I do.

  167. I sometimes have unbelief over the way.

  168. I do certain things, I am unable to see God at work.

  169. And even as a Christ, follower unbelief, creeps him because of

  170. faith is constantly tested. And so today, can we move to a

  171. place and say, holy spirit? Would you come through and break

  172. every unbelief? I don't know what your unbelief

  173. is. Probably.

  174. It's your unbelief. Is because, you know what?

  175. I will never have a good marriage because the first time

  176. I got married, my spouse walked out on me.

  177. Oh, probably. I've been cheated or a Single,

  178. you're feeling everything. Good is happening for everyone,

  179. but what is it that's happening for me more than believing and

  180. having faith in you unbelief is certain Unbelief can only be

  181. changed with the Holy Spirit breaks through that Isaiah 55.

  182. Verse is one. In fact, we want to reference a

  183. couple of verses from Isaiah 55. And this is what it says, here.

  184. We see the entire unbelief change to belief and God tells

  185. his people come. All you are thirsty.

  186. Come to the waters and you have no money.

  187. Come, buy and eat, come buy wine and milk without money and

  188. without cost. And verse 6 goes on to say Seek

  189. the Lord, while he may be found call on him.

  190. While he is near was his 89 which lot of us know.

  191. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither am.

  192. I ways your ways declares the Lord as the heavens are higher

  193. than the earth. So are my ways higher than your

  194. ways and my thoughts than your thoughts, the spirit of unbelief

  195. exists, because our thoughts are not aligned with God's thoughts.

  196. And honestly, I've seen that time and again, back in 2014, I

  197. still remember after viewing, the situation to make a decision

  198. or whether to come back to India.

  199. And if you come back to India, where do we go?

  200. And we wrestled with that decision for three months,

  201. praying about it and asking God, but we have to come to a place

  202. of realizing Holy Spirit, you lead us and you know many years

  203. after that I kept thinking, you know what 2015 was a very

  204. challenging Year, God was it a year that there?

  205. Is a mistake that I did, you know, unbelief set in God,

  206. probably you allowed one year, one year didn't go as planned

  207. according to your timeline. But God constantly reminded it's

  208. in that one year, I actually broke through a lot of your

  209. unbelief. It's in that one year, I was

  210. prepping you for actually planting a church.

  211. It was in that one year where I was setting you up to realize

  212. that your call is far bigger. For Spirit to break through.

  213. It says, you come and drink teasing, you don't need

  214. anything. You don't need to give me

  215. anything. You don't have to have money to,

  216. you know, have access to this. You have access to this because

  217. you have accepted Jesus Christ as your lord and personal

  218. savior. So today what is your unbelief

  219. that is right there in the Forefront?

  220. Would you in faith? You know, declare it saying,

  221. Spirit, Holy Spirit. I ask that you would break

  222. through that unbelief, and would you move ahead?

  223. So that I will see you move through?

  224. A lot of us are struggling with unbelief.

  225. We as Christ followers can struggle with unbelief, but

  226. that's not permanent because the Holy Spirit resides in us.

  227. I want to take an instance of what happened in Mark and let's

  228. read that. Mark chapter 16 and this is what

    Mark 16 chapter mention

  229. it says. Now when he rose early on the

  230. first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene

  231. from whom. He had cast out seven demons,

  232. she went and told those who had been with him as they mourned.

  233. Admit. But when they heard that he was

  234. alive and had been seen by her, they would not believe it.

  235. After these things, he appeared in another form to two of them

  236. as they were walking into the country.

  237. And they went back and told the rest, but they did not believe

  238. them. Afterward, he appeared to the

  239. eleven themselves as they were reclining at the table and he

  240. rebuked them for their unbelief and Hardness of Heart because

  241. they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen.

  242. He said to them, go into all the world and preach the gospel to

  243. all You should whoever believes and is baptized will be saved,

  244. but whoever does not believe will be condemned, and these

  245. signs will accompany those who believe in my name, they will

  246. drive out demons. They will speak in new tongues,

  247. they will pick up snakes and we are happy with your hands.

  248. And when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at

  249. all. They will place their hands on

  250. sick people and they will get well.

  251. So, the Lord Jesus after he had spoken to them, was taken up

  252. into heaven and sat down. The right hand of God and was 20

  253. says and they went out and preached everywhere.

  254. The Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by

  255. accompanying signs. So what we see here from Mark

  256. chapter 16, verses 912, the way to 19 is to from from Mark

    Mark 16:9–20

  257. 16:9-20 mean, is unbelief that are instances where the

  258. disciples had unbelief that. They didn't believe that Jesus

  259. had risen, but something flipped between 19 and 20 and

  260. chronologically acts to happen that Acts to happen that.

  261. And when the Holy Spirit came, he broke through every unbelief

  262. and set them free to believe that Jesus is Alive.

  263. And he's called them to do. Great, and Mighty things, many a

  264. times. We emphasize a lot on the Great

  265. Commission during Pentecost Sunday and even in fact, I'm

  266. going to talk about it, but the Great Commission will never see

  267. the light of day if you have unbelief in a heart, So today,

  268. if God's not called a few God's not called a select theologians

  269. to go and do his work, but a select few who have a burden,

  270. know he's called each and every one who believes in his game.

  271. How they actually fulfill. The Great Commission is

  272. different, but what the Holy Spirit wants to do is he wants

  273. to break through every unbelief so that you will believe

  274. wholeheartedly in the god who's called you so today.

  275. Can we ask for the Holy Spirit to turn our unbelief?

  276. Many times? Our unbelief is because of the

  277. way we've been brought up or probably we are seeing so many

  278. things today, we are in an information overload today.

  279. It Instagram when we look at things it's or any other social

  280. media is people's opinions and sometimes that ways as down.

  281. But can we come to a place to say?

  282. God I believe in you, no matter what, whatever picture I see,

  283. whatever, you know, the way in which people portray themselves

  284. and their lives. Look like I want to trust that

  285. you have the best in store for me, because God wants the best

  286. to happen for us, and he can only happen when the do not have

  287. unbelief in our hearts. The Holy Spirit has to break

  288. through every unbelief, so which means for your marriage for

  289. your. So for those of you who've been,

  290. Wanting to have a child. For those of you who've been

  291. wanting to have their financial breakthrough.

  292. For those of you who've had that rocky relationship with your

  293. parents. For those of you who've been

  294. failing to see God's plan and in through your life, ever since

  295. you accepted Jesus Christ, would you allow the Holy Spirit to

  296. come in and change that unbelief to belief when we allow the Holy

  297. Spirit to break through our unbelief?

  298. We are only able to see things his way.

  299. We are able to see things. So, that's the, as I read from

  300. Isaiah, his ways become our ways.

  301. His thoughts, become our thoughts.

  302. We suddenly acquired, we don't have to retaliate.

  303. We suddenly are like, you know what?

  304. God, I Believe In You, hardships will come.

  305. And in fact, as we read in Mark we see people are offering.

  306. Poison, people are offering things but nothing harm them.

  307. I was listening to a preacher the other day and he said lies

  308. always has an expiry date. How many allows the spirit to

  309. break through? I believe truth will prevail at

  310. the end. The second thing that we see the

  311. Holy Spirit breakthrough is that he breaks through every

  312. stronghold. I don't know how many of you are

  313. actually have experienced this, but there's no stronghold.

  314. That's big enough that's tall enough that's wide enough for

  315. the Holy Spirit to penetrate you know God talks to Jeremiah in,

  316. Jeremiah 30 and tells him to Write this down.

  317. This is where God steps in and says that, he will set his

  318. people free. You're going to be looking

  319. through some other verses, from Jeremiah chapter 30 and this is

    Jeremiah 30 chapter mention

  320. where Jeremiah hears from God as to what God has to say.

  321. Forest, people know stronghold is strong enough for the Holy

  322. Spirit to contest. Just a week back.

  323. I was at theorem OT Dam. And we were there for some work.

  324. And as we were standing by the dam, the Gates of the diameter,

  325. you know, they have those huge hydraulic pipes, which allow

  326. water to come through and you can see the big difference is

  327. Stronghold is the damn. It's holding the water back but

  328. if you look at this place the place outside you can see it's

  329. dry trees are shriveled trunks of Fallen.

  330. You know, there's this dryness and baroness have dealer.

  331. And as I Was preparing God Is reminding me of that?

  332. Same place where I stood, I was taking some pictures that if you

  333. allow my spirit to break through I can break through every

  334. stronghold. A lot of times we today has his

  335. followers have become so comfortable with the stronghold

  336. that we are walking around it that we've allowed it to exist.

  337. And we are moving around, we are okay with the baroness.

  338. We are okay. With the dryness because we're

  339. able to, you know, somehow make it through, be able to portray,

  340. we can like Take good pictures and put it out there.

  341. We can show ourselves like everything is going right.

  342. But the dryness, the baroness the way that we walk around

  343. these strongholds is not how we are intended to live.

  344. If you have the Holy Spirit in and reverse to take it further,

  345. a lot of us are comfortable living with the trickling that

  346. comes from these dams. Water tends to leak.

  347. You're happy with that. So we come on a Sunday, they're

  348. like, you know what, I've got a wet my lips with the Holy

  349. Spirit. And so now I can go back and

  350. manage my week. But God reminded me as I was

  351. standing there as if you allow the Holy Spirit to come in, he

  352. will open that hydraulic pipe fully.

  353. He will allow the water to gush out to remove to break every

  354. stronghold to make sure that every form of stronger that is

  355. there will be broken. And today we don't have to live

  356. around a stronghold or with a stronghold we can live without a

  357. struggle because a spirit can break through and make that

  358. nothing even last week as Tina was talking about I was talking

  359. with spiritual warfare and I believe the spirit has to break

  360. through every stronghold. She was talking to a bunch of

  361. youngsters from the zero conference and she was

  362. challenging them by the story that she came across, but a

  363. father and mother loved their son so much.

  364. But then when he was in a self discovery phase at 17, 18 got

  365. addicted to drugs. The heart was broken and heavy

  366. because they knew the purpose that God had for him.

  367. But then here he is. Is wasting his life by being

  368. high and just, you know, unable to do anything with his life.

  369. When they prayed, they were reminded of the fact that you

  370. know what the days when the spirit moved people used him in

  371. handkerchiefs to actually ask Paul and Peter to pray over it

  372. and they use that to bring healing and to bring to make

  373. sure Demons free. So his parents prayed on a piece

  374. of cloth and they sued it into his wallet.

  375. It fast forward down the line, six months later, he's given up

  376. drugs, he's become clean goes into Seminary, accepts Jesus and

  377. us today doing powerful Ministry.

  378. When the spirit decides to break through when we allow him, he's

  379. always ready to set us free. The beautiful thing about the

  380. Holy Spirit is he doesn't want us to carry and yoke.

  381. He says, allow me so I can Break Free, Break, everything, set you

  382. guys free so that you'll be able to do far bigger things.

  383. And so today, what is the Breakthrough that we need the

  384. Breakthrough? Probably that we need the.

  385. Holy spirit is present as much as I said in the water in the

  386. dam. The water is present, but we

  387. control the valve. We control how much of the Holy

  388. Spirit real love. So today, if your marriage is

  389. looking dull and you started looking at The Greener patches

  390. of other people's marriage and you know, longing for something

  391. else. I love the Holy Spirit to break

  392. through that stronghold. Are you hooked on?

  393. To something where you're you're, you're secretly doing

  394. it. That you're like, you know what,

  395. this just gives me my own kind of thing, but God wants to set

  396. you free because at the end of it guilt and shame doesn't have

  397. to become a stronghold. We indulging in something six

  398. days a week and then coming here in this, you know, getting a

  399. drip of the Holy Spirit and saying, you know what, and I'm

  400. happy and content know. He wants to break through.

  401. Would you I love the Holy Spirit to break through in Jeremiah 30

  402. was eaten. And as I said earlier, this is

  403. what God says. In that day, declares the Lord

  404. Almighty, I will break the Yoke of their necks and we'll tear of

  405. their bonds. No longer will foreigners

  406. enslave them. Instead they will serve the Lord

  407. their God and David, their King whom I will raise up for them.

  408. So today as is was says, God was talking to the people of Israel

  409. setting them free. I believe.

  410. God is also saying I am willing to set you free today.

  411. Whatever that yoke is be the Yoke of drugs, alcohol, sex

  412. addiction, whatever it is. Be it the bonds that you formed

  413. by texting someone privately and doing things or certain ways.

  414. The holy spirit is willing to break through that stronghold.

  415. Would you commit? It so that that yoke can be

  416. broken so that you don't have to carry that yolk as a burden, you

  417. don't have to live with the guilt and the shame that comes

  418. with that. Aw Tozer says this, the most

  419. menial tasks can become a Priestly ministration.

  420. When the Holy Spirit takes over and Christ becomes your.

  421. All in all, as I said earlier, the day of Pentecost, 120 Old

  422. 120 received the baptism of the Holy Spirit by fire and I

  423. believe Everyone. You can be a single person, a

  424. married person or video, you could be a person with the job

  425. without a job. Anything and everything you do

  426. will be heavily please. 3 ministration because you have

  427. the Holy Spirit in and through you nothing you have to take it

  428. lightly. You don't have to carry that

  429. burden and walk with that. So today, can we ask the Holy

  430. Spirit to come in and work in and through our lives?

  431. So that he can break through every stronghold for some of us

  432. it's probably is generational strongholds but we've seen a

  433. family line be in debt after debt it stops now but you're

  434. saying Holy Spirit. I commit the space and I want

  435. you to come into this particular situation today.

  436. Probably a seeing things happen in your life time and time.

  437. And again and I Leave. Sometimes that's because a

  438. stronghold is still there and the Holy Spirit is saying I am

  439. willing to break that stronghold because of your anger, probably,

  440. you've seen so many things disintegrate and the Holy Spirit

  441. is saying I can come and make a difference.

  442. Would you allow of me to come into your life so that I can

  443. bring about a breakthrough in your life?

  444. So that the strongholds can break.

  445. The third thing, as we saw the first thing was he breaks

  446. through every unbelief. The second thing we saw is he

  447. breaks through every stronghold. And the third thing is, he can

  448. break through every circumstance, Isaiah 44:6 to 24.

    Isaiah 44:6–24

  449. This is what the Lord says. He who made you who formed you

  450. in the womb and who will help you do not be afraid.

  451. Jacob, my servant jeshurun whom I have chosen for.

  452. I will pour water on the Thirsty land and streams on the dry

  453. ground. I will pour out my spirit on

  454. your Offspring and my blessing on your descendants.

  455. They will spring up like grass in a meadow like Poplar piece by

  456. flowing streams and I want us to look at verse 3.

  457. It says here for I will pour water on the Thirsty land and

  458. streams on dry ground. The spirit can break through

  459. every circumstance today. A lot of us have determined our

  460. spiritual walk by our circumstances.

  461. Oh God, I can get this breakthrough.

  462. So I think, you know, you don't exist or God.

  463. Think, you know what? This particular circumstances

  464. the the the abuse that I've gone through is become my identity.

  465. No, he can turn even the abuse around.

  466. You probably have not seen a good relationship in your life.

  467. And so probably are thinking, you know, this is my fate in

  468. life. No, he can bring about streams

  469. on dry ground. What does that look like?

  470. That looks like you're in a desert and there's an oasis

  471. right there. He can make you flourish in dry

  472. places. He can make you sustain and do

  473. good and look good in dry places.

  474. He will make sure that your head is not put to shame that you can

  475. lift your head up in dry places. The spirit is willing to break

  476. through every circumstance. That's where we believe in the

  477. miraculous work of God, that's where we believe in what God can

  478. do in and through us. That's why we believe that.

  479. Jesus is Way is what I need to follow.

  480. So today I want to ask each and every one of you.

  481. What is your dry ground? What is your dry graph that

  482. you're failing to? Ask the Holy Spirit to come and

  483. break through? You know, sometimes there is a

  484. sense of us tilling ground so that it can flourish and it can

  485. give us fruit and it can give us a harvest.

  486. God says he blessed the work of our hands but many a times.

  487. We are unable to see that happen.

  488. Circumstance of the circumstance.

  489. The Bible says, in the Bible has a verse where it says our

  490. pockets are like those, which have holes where money.

  491. This doesn't stay, just goes out.

  492. And probably, that seems you like your life?

  493. You're unable to see him as a provider.

  494. Wider. And so often your circumstances

  495. are causing you to put your head in shame in front of others or

  496. probably health-wise. You've been going through one

  497. illness after the other or in your house someone and the

  498. others falling sick and it's just weighing on.

  499. You would you ask the Holy Spirit to break through?

  500. He can break through, he could refresh you in that dry ground.

  501. For those of you who are going through terminal illness, I'm

  502. praying specifically that the Holy Spirit would come in in

  503. that dry air. Right out at DealeXtreme in that

  504. stream, you will see flourishing happen in that stream, you will

  505. see growth happen in that stream, that flows from him from

  506. his Mountain, you will see life that comes in and many a times

  507. the life that we are trying to orchestrate.

  508. And make sure is more physical, but the spirit gives about a

  509. freedom that is beyond our physical.

  510. Our spirit man is set free. Our spirit man is, you know, No,

  511. the no longer bound, there are no more shackles and he wants us

  512. to move to a place of experiencing that breakthrough

  513. from unbelief. He wants us to experience at

  514. breakthrough from every stronghold and he wants us to

  515. experience that breakthrough from every circumstance.

  516. As I said earlier, in 2015 I felt that year was wasted but

  517. God said no. To you.

  518. It look like dry ground but in that dry ground, I still had my

  519. provision in there. I still was like a stream, I

  520. still built you and your family up and it's amazing that and I'm

  521. after tank Google photos for that.

  522. Like when it pulls back, you know, nine years back or eight

  523. years back and able to look back and see it now through the lens

  524. of what God wants me to see it through.

  525. Some never discount your circumstances.

  526. God has something big in store for you.

  527. Even as I said, today's Pentecost Sunday, I believe the

  528. Book of Acts constantly talks of the spirit breaking through

  529. everything, breaking through religious mindset, breaking

  530. through the understanding of legalizing, everything breaking

  531. through, you know, the the way in, which they are confining the

  532. Holy Spirit and not allowing him to operate.

  533. And I want to read acts once was a 7 to 8 because I believe each

  534. of us need the Holy Spirit and I want to play at the end of the

  535. day. We all will be able to receive a

  536. fresh anointing of fresh breakthrough of the Holy Spirit

  537. In Our Lives. Acts 1, verse 27. 28 says this,

  538. he said to them, it's not for you to know the times or dates,

  539. the father has set by his own authority, but you will receive

  540. power when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be my

  541. Witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria and to the

  542. ends of the Earth. It says here, when the Holy

  543. Spirit comes on you, you will be my Witnesses.

  544. Today, God has given each of us. A Jerusalem to be a witness, a

  545. Judea to be a witness and the Samaria, and I believe in due

  546. time. He today with, with the way

  547. technology is, I believe the ends of the Earth is just, the

  548. is an understatement. And so today can be come to a

  549. place of saying, God, I want to be part of this Great

  550. Commission. I don't want to be part of it in

  551. My Own Strength, but I want your Holy Spirit to work in and

  552. through me. You know, one of the things

  553. which came to my mind when I was talking about, the Great

  554. Commission, was this huge picture?

  555. Which was at, like, I don't know how many a big puzzle piece and

  556. if you see puzzle pieces, they all are of the same size.

  557. And each of us play A Part, each of us get that same kind of

  558. anointing from the Holy Spirit. There's no measure that he says,

  559. you know what, if you do this I'll do that.

  560. No, he's unique. A God, who has created eight

  561. billion? People uniquely is also willing

  562. to fill us uniquely. And so if we can come to a place

  563. of understanding and seeing that Spirit, would you break out

  564. Spirit? Would you break through Spirit?

  565. Would you allow me to identify? What you've placed me here for?

  566. Because when we allow the Holy Spirit to break through every

  567. desire that we have will soon be comfortable in what he wants us

  568. to do and suddenly this Great Commission just becomes a way of

  569. life. And so we will realize that this

  570. puzzle is a bigger piece. In God's kingdom, and I have to

  571. do my part, I need to be faithful.

  572. And we just had Pastor Timothy Keller passed away last week and

  573. I was just reading up a lot of Articles and I thank God that

  574. you know, he finished. Well, he led his life by example

  575. and I believe that's a challenge for each and every one of us

  576. that we won't allow the pleasure of this world to cause us to go

  577. away from God, but rather come to him every step of the way

  578. that no matter what, we will look at finishing, well, because

  579. if you can finish, well, we've Repeated are part of the puzzle

  580. and his work continues on. And even before I close, I just

  581. want to read a verse from Joel 3:18.

    Joel 3:18

  582. In that day, the mountains will drip new wine and the hills will

  583. flow with milk or there are wines of Judah will run with

  584. water of Fountain, will flow to the Lord's house and we water

  585. the valley of a Cassius. Today church, if we do not allow

  586. the spirit to break through in us, he cannot flow in and

  587. through us, we will become that barrier.

  588. We will become the gatekeeper and saying God, this is not for

  589. me. But if let's say the church, all

  590. of us agree and make that up prayer and say, God I want the

  591. Holy Spirit to break through break through my unbelief.

  592. Whatever asserted in 30, 40 Years of an biggest breakthrough

  593. breakthrough, every circumstance.

  594. Slot that my understanding of faith will not be determined by

  595. my circumstance. And also that I wouldn't allow

  596. any stronghold to be there and for the Holy Spirit to work

  597. around that but rather let the Holy Spirit Break that and take

  598. it away. Because What flows from the

  599. church, What flows from his people is what we gather the

  600. hurting the longing, the Desiring, the people who want to

  601. love into his fold. Today, if we have to live out

  602. the Great Commission, we cannot live it out until we've allowed

  603. the spirit to break through in US.

  604. So Church even has a close if you don't receive the Holy

  605. Spirit, but probably you're scared or you're having a biases

  606. because of denominational things, or whatever.

  607. Would you just come to a place of understanding that the holy

  608. spirit is an intricate part of the Triune God?

  609. He is an equal with the father Son and the Holy Spirit, they

  610. all are together and me need. I would ask that he would break

  611. through every ideology, every everything that's holding you

  612. back and that you would receive him that, as you receive him,

  613. you'll be able to see his work in and through your life.

  614. So can we pray, our loving Heavenly Father Lord, we thank

  615. you Lord for this time. Thank you Lord, for blessing us

  616. that Jesus today and even right, download as we called your word,

  617. I just pray over our church. Lord Jesus, that we will all

  618. long for the Holy Spirit. I pray.

  619. Not for those who are listening right now.

  620. Lord Jesus, who are watching this or even.

  621. In this later, I pray that God they will experience the fire

  622. that came down in the upper room.

  623. Lord Jesus. I pray even right now they will

  624. experience a unique fire that they wouldn't rely on someone

  625. else's fire. They won't think about others

  626. and not compare but they would ask you for your own anointing

  627. specifically not and even as we heard from your word that you

  628. would break through every circumstance, you would break

  629. through every unbelief you would break through every stronghold.

  630. I pray that your You'll experience Freedom.

  631. It is for Freedom that you have set us free, Lord Jesus.

  632. And I pray that what we come to a place that we will allow you

  633. to work in and through us that we will not be bound by a fear

  634. as we won't be bound by a circumstances.

  635. You won't be bound by a strong pulse.

  636. I pray. Holy Spirit.

  637. Would you move in and through each and every one right now, I

  638. Pray by healing is needed. You would bring about healing.

  639. Restoration is read at Holy Spirit, bring about restoration.

  640. I pray. Holy Spirit.

  641. Would you break out the old and break in the new Lord?

  642. Jesus. We thank you.

  643. We thank you. Lord.

  644. Would you come into each and every one of our Lives?

  645. Lord, Holy Spirit, have your way.

  646. We don't want yesterday's anointing.

  647. We want a fresh anointing today. Lord, Jesus.

  648. Who do you come down on each and every one a follows.

  649. God be with With us and bless us.

  650. I pray specifically lot that you bless each and every one list,

  651. the work of your hands, bless them to get going out and

  652. coming. You bless the food and water of

  653. home. I pray, Lord, the your homes

  654. will be blessed the doorpost of their houses will have love or

  655. Joy or Peace. So, that whoever walks in and

  656. walks of life experience, you wholeheartedly not Jesus, we

  657. thank you. Be glorified and honored your

  658. most holy name we pray. Amen.

  659. Amen. So Church even as we celebrate

  660. Pentecost, suddenly Desire for the Holy Spirit.

  661. May he become part and parcel of your life, may he do far bigger

  662. things than what you can imagine because I believe when he starts

  663. doing all this work in and through us, he will shape us to

  664. be his vessel. And soon the Great Commission

  665. will just be part and parcel of country, we will be his

  666. testimony wherever he takes us wherever he places us.

  667. Wherever he causes us to be his night.

  668. I pray for his piece. Is joy and is favored over you.

  669. God bless you all and have of this.
