Apostle Ron Dawson

Leader Overseer Amanda God, that has become my friend. I

love him so much more than he knows. And I

appreciate this opportunity to come to your the famous VIP.

I made it, Mama, I made it to the VIP.

Can we thank God for Overseer Chris Smith? Come on, Mark,

come on, thank God for him.

Come on, you can do better than that.

If you are a member here, you ought to be

standing for your leader, because I believe if you.

Honor the Manda God, it qualifies.

You for everything God has for him. And while we're

honoring him, honor.

His lovely first lady, Lady more.

All of God's people. The house has already been addressed.

So to all of these great leaders and men of God,

I'm honored to stand in front.

Of you on today. I hope y'all praying for me

over here.

Amen, praying for me over here, and certainly to my

own wife, who's here. Next month would be twenty nine years.

Stand up, baby, and let them see how beautiful you are?

Is that?

See you love me? My min She's She's the love

of my life.

We've been married since we were nineteen nineteen, and we

both half.

A century now. Going on fifty.

I know I don't look like it, but going on fifty,

I'm so. We're so grateful to be here into all

of n GM that made their way out here.

Come on, thank God for them.

It's our Hispanic pastor, Pastor Abel Blarona, come on, Starstead

Gumu Staf and his lovely wife, Sister Phoebe for being

here with us, and all of you all. Sister Monique,

God bless you.

I see you. Thank you.

My Son's made it. I see you. Let's see it

and all of God's people. Can we move swiftly.

Your pastor has already allotted me five hours.

We talked on the phone and he said I had

five hours to share on the now.

I'm just kidding. He didn't. He told me, don't be

five hours, amen. And so all of this.

Shouting they did, that ain't my time, right, That ain't

my time this day time. And so we're here celebrating

twenty seven years of church anniversary. Can we thank God

for that? Come on, y'all amen. So those of you

that's not clapping twenty seven years, you don't follow on

twenty seven years by accident. Twenty seven years is evidence

that God sustains what he starts that every time Hell

tried to shut it down, God made it for you. Oh,

so we're so grateful to We're going into the Word

of Lord tonight.

Briefly.

I don't want to be before your any great land,

but I'm grateful to be here. Can you stand with

your Bibles and all of you all that I know?

I remember faces. I see y'all out there. Good to

see y'all. How y'all doing. Hey, man, We're going to

the Book of Neil Maya neil Maya chapter number four

on tonight.

Brother. Eyes are good to see you, sir, to see you. Man,

He's great. I'm surrounded by greetingness today. Mother.

I told him I didn't need to preach because you

had already. You had already preached Neil Maya, chapter number four.

I'm going to be reading out of the NIV. We're

going to begin at verse number one and read to

verse number six.

Is that all right? If you have it? Say amen,

you're still looking.

Say my mother said I was gonna say hurry up,

but I ain't gonna say that to mother.

Amen.

If you're having it, says when Sambalad heard that we

were rebuilding the wall.

He became angry and was greatly incense.

He ridiculed the Jews, and in the presence of his

associates and the army of Sameria, he said, what are

those feeble Jews doing? When he heard after twenty seventh

church anniversary, he became angry.

And he began to ask a lot of questions. You

gotta be careful when people asked. Start asking all these

questions and stuff.

He says, what are those feeble Jews doing? Will they

restore the wall? Wipe my glasses? They offer sacrifices for

y'all that don't know what that means. That means where

they still give God praise y'all not talking to me

y'all y'all didnt shoty y'all time? That means they gonna

give God praise even when things don't look favor for

Will they finish in a day? Can they bring the

stones back to life from those heaps of rubble burned

as they are? Tobaya Dyama Knight, who was at his side, said,

what they are building here?

It is even a fox climbing up.

On it would break down their walls of stone. Hear

us our God, for we are despised. So we rebuilt

the wall till all of it. I think somebody say,

tell all of it till all of it reached half

its height. For the people had a mind to work.

People had a mind to work. Before you take your seat,

I want you to help me. Tell your neighbor my subject.

Today.

We're gonna be talking about momentum in the middle. But

I want you to look.

At your neighbor and say, neighbor, whatever you do, tell them,

don't get stuck in the middle.

You may be seated in the president of the Lord.

All y'all see them again, say don't get stuck in

the middle. Because as we are advancing the kingdom with

unstoppable momentum, I come to talk to the people today

who seems to get stuck in between what God said

and where we are. When you talk about getting stuck

in the middle. Before I get into this text tonight,

everybody needs to know because I'm looking around the room

and some of you are in here right now, and

you in the middle. I'm looking at some of you.

How you praise tonight? You can't praise because you stuck

in the middle. You're in the middle of something.

But God is about.

To give you momentum in the middle. I need about

three people. I'm just looking up on this side. I'm

waiting for three people. Look at your neighbors, said neighbor.

He's about to give you momentum in the middle, in

the middle. What is the middle? What is the middle?

The middle is not a location. The middle is a condition.

It is the space between the promise and the fulfillment.

Some of you are in the middle. You're in the middle.

You too far behind to go back, and you're too

far ahead to see clearly. The only way God told

me to tell you, the only way you're gonna get

through this is to go through y'all. Now, look at

your neighbors, says you got to go through this. You know,

people I tell them at my church when they always

talking about pastor I'm going through, I say good because

when you going through, that means you ain't stuck. Y'all

not talking to me. I'm just going and preach like

I feel. When you going through that means you're still moving.

Look at somebody that says.

Go on through, go on through.

Every person God ever used went through a middle.

Joseph went through a middle.

Thirteen years between the dream and the throne. David went

through a middle. He was annoyted, asked king, but still

running from Saul. Abraham went through the middle. The promise

was real, but Isaac wasn't born yet. Let me talk

to all the people just came out of resurrection. Jesus

went through a middle three days between the cross and

the resurrection.

All of us go through the middle.

But I come to tell you in this twenty seven

church anniversary, don't get stuck in the middle.

What happens in the middle?

Exhaustion, talks, comparison, creep singing, doubt gets re allowed. The

assignment appears to look harder or messier, or coaster than

the vision suggests it. It don't look good when you

get in the middle. Because here's the truth. How many

you ever started something? And when you start something, you

got excitement because you and you're in the process of starting,

and we get excited when we get to the end.

The end is celebration. But it's in the middle. I

wish I had a real church in here. It's in

the middle that you start looking at the rubber around

you and saying, wait a minute, don't seem like much

is happening. Don't seem like we're getting anywhere because our

position gets specific in the middle, because now the enemy

knows exactly what you're building and where the wall is

still unfinished. And the reason number three you don't need

to get stuck in the middle is because the middle

is a passage way. Look at your neighbors, say, it's

not a parking lot. Come on, tell them you can't

park there. You can't stop there. It's not a pass

this way, it's not a parking lot. Don't stop there.

And then the harvest never comes. When you stop in

the middle, you never get to the harvest. An unfinished

wall still leaves the city exposed. And so tonight I

want to look at Neil Maya. Can we just run

through here pretty quickly? I promise I won't be five

dollars if you say, a man, if you look in

chapter number one of Neil Maya, I like to call

chapter number one the burden chapter, because in chapter number one.

The Bible says that Nil Maya he's in.

The palace, he's in the place of the king, and

the Bible says he says that he was a cup barrier.

I want to help y'all, because I know we say

a cup barrier. He was just, you know, tasting the

king's drink. But it was more than that. He was

a trusted person.

He was a person of high honor in the king's palace.

And yes, he had to taste the wine before the

king would drink it. And what this showed us is

that Nil Maya could be trusted and he didn't mind

putting his life on the line. I'm trying to find

about five people in here who say, God, in this

next season, you can trust me.

I'm willing to put.

My life on the line. Y'all not talking to me

and him? And chapter number one the Bible says that

while he's in the king's palace, some of the men

come to him and they give him news.

Here's the part that really trusts me out.

Everybody heard about Jerusalem, y'all.

Y'all, y'all not talking to me. Everybody heard the news.

Y'all know how we do when we get up and

we go on social media and we go down and

we see all the stuff that's going on.

Some of y'all don't click in life, but you see it.

They heard.

Everybody knew the news. But Here's what I want to

get you to see.

Everybody heard about Jerusalem, but only nil maya felt it. Okay,

I'm not getting no amens in here, but I'm trying

to find people. There are people that hear news, but

there are people who feel it. And when you feel it,

here it is you get a burden for what you felt.

You don't talk about it, you don't gossip about it,

but to go into prayer about it. I'm trying to

find the way I got it in prayer. Warrior's in here,

he says, I don't have time to gossip in this season.

The burden that God has given me is to go

in prayer.

Bible says that when he heard he.

Wept and he moaning, and he fasted. Nobody told him

the pray. Nobody told him the fast. Because when you

get a real burden for what God has a burden for,

ain't nobody got to call you the six o'clock prayer.

Y'all not talking to me? Y'all quiet in here.

Ain't nobody got to call you to the Bible studying.

Ain't nobody got to tell you to come and beg

you to come. When you have a burden, you get

up and gold upro y'all not talking to me. When

you have a burden, you will turn your plate down.

When you have a burden, you will fast.

Why because information doesn't change people. Information doesn't change people.

It's burden. You have to have somebody say, burden, What

is burden?

Let me help you.

Burden is the evidence of the assignment. This ministry didn't

start just on information.

It started on a burden.

Y'all not talking to me because you cannot fix what

you are not burden by. Look at somebody say you

can't fix what you're not burdened by.

Yeah, you can call the call your.

Girlfriend on the phone and talk about it, but maybe

hanging that phone up and say the only way we

can fix this is I gotta get a bird and

get before God. And so in chapter number one it

is the burden chapter. But in chapter number two it

is the assignment, because after you get the burden, you

get the assignment.

Y'all not talking to me in here, let me slow down.

You ain't got no assignment if you ain't got no burden.

Everybody want a microphone, and everybody.

Want a church. Baby. I told my church you can

have this.

Because if you ain't if you don't have a burden

for God's people.

You just want performance. You don't. You don't, You don't

want God.

Because a burden makes you stay up all night even

though you got to be at work the next morning.

Burden won't let you sleep, Burden won't let you eat.

I was at work today after be at work this morning,

seven am. But I was at work saying, God, give

me a word, a fresh word for your people. While

I was checking folk in, I was like, God, give

me strength for your people today. Why it not because

of the platform, but because of the burden. The same

man who wept privately watched this now stands in front

of the king. Right, He stands in front of the king,

and the Bible says that he is weeping for four months,

somebody say four months.

Four months.

He has been carrying the burden that he heard in

chapter number one, carrying knowing that knowing that some family

it's in disarray, y'all not talking to me, knowing that

that some wife, some some mother don't have food to

feed their children.

Burden some teenage child, young man is on drugs, and

we just go home and go to sleep.

I came to ask the church if you don't go

for another another year?

Where is.

Are we just comeing to church just to come to church,

have a good time, shout and go home. You need

a burden so that you can get the assignment because

it is your burden. Watch this that reveals your assignment.

Here's the thing, though many people don't know. You couldn't

go in front of a Persian king with a sad countenance.

You couldn't go in front.

Of the king with a sad count to this. That

would get you killed, That would get you put out

the kingdom. Y'all not talking to me, But watch what

God does. God allows him to go in front.

Of the king and the king recognizes his burden and

he says in the a maya, there is something it's

going on with you.

Yeah, So watch what God does. Not only does he

allow the king to see his burden, he allows the

king to give him a letter to go do what

he y'all not talking to me? Can I tell you

what I just said to you if you didn't catch it.

When you have a burden and God gives you assignment,

how you know it's assignment because He didn't release his

favor for you to do what it is that he's gonna.

I need somebody to shall favor in this house. Don't

let this year just be another year. God, forgive me

favor to do what you call me to do. Bible

says that he gave him letters and lumber, He gave

him permission, he gave him provision, and.

He gave him protection.

Here it is all at once, because when God sends you,

he backs you. I don't know who's watching on Facebook.

When God sends you, he backs you. God don't send

you out empty handed. He don't send you out for

you to fail. God says, when I send you out,

I'm a back every decision. So chapter one it's the burden.

Chapter Chapter two is the assignment. But chapter three it's

the participation and proximity. Because watch this, everybody had a section.

Look at i'mbouna say everybody. Everybody had a section. Everybody

had a role.

Y'all go till and they built what they was.

Near or close to.

Look at your neighbors and neighbor, I'm near you tonight,

So tonight you mine. Simon, tell a neighbor when I

get my breakthrough, I ain't gonna leave you behind.

I'm gonna make sure you get jaw too.

Look at your neighbors and neighbor when I come out,

I'm gonna bring you writ me cause that rethinker close

to me gonna get a breakthrough. Everythinker around me gonna

get here on.

The I need to the wipe them. Wrap your neighbor.

Hand and say, neighbor, I'm on out of here, Come

on out of here, Come out in your stupid.

Come out of your ladys, come out. Why's this? We

see that? You see that? Why's this?

You got to understand that the story is that kneeled

my your goals to rebuild a broken wall, and he

gets everybody to help. Everybody had a part because when

everybody builds.

What wasn't near them here it is, but the whole

wall moves at once. And the problem with us we

get it out.

Look, you know attitude where we watch other people move.

But God said, in this next season, if the whole

wall is gonna move, not some of.

The wall, not half of the wall, he says, but

the whole wall gonna move.

Because you gonna help move. Let me go, let me go.

So momentum is not built by one person, y'all sit down,

y'all make him in nervous Momentum is not built just

by your pastum, which half path to guy that he'll

do it.

We'll just call for lady. They'll do it.

You know, it's only when you know something is for us,

then we want everybody to participate. When it's your birthday,

you want everybody to show up. When it's your payment birthday.

Oh whatever you have, you want everybody to show up.

But then if it ain't got nothing to do with you, you.

Stay at home. But you can't do that in this season.

It's gonna take everybody. I wish I could really drive

this point. Look at your neighbors, say I need you

and you mean me. Everybody. The musicians got to play

they part. The choir got to play they part. The

minister's point got to play they part. Because if what

part ain't moving, watch this, it affects the hole. I'm

trying to get to the text. Y'all trying to get

to the test, but I'm trying to get if everybody

don't put their hand to the plow, I don't care

how much shouting we do. You can always tell when

something is off. I told my church, I said I don't.

People can come in here and visit this church, and

they can tell who don't like who.

I'm not doing?

All right, I'm almost done. They can walk into church.

That child looks she don't like her. Look hout, she

looked at her. Did you see when she walked in?

She was finna sit by, but then she moved. I

ain't just stopped doing. I've been doing this a long time.

I know church for you can tell. I can look

at y'all, some of y'all right now, look like, who

is this boy with all this on his head?

Because you know why?

I grew up in the traditional church, and they told

me I couldn't have half and be a preacher.

I said, that's the devil is a liar. Get out

of that legalism.

The Bible said that Sampson cut off his hair, and

when he cut his hair, he lost his shred, but

win his high crew.

Shirt again. I come back. I can't the problems how took.

That people in him? You're getting ready to jet, y'all.

I need to do the high somebody say, you getting ready.

To get touched.

All right, let's look at the text.

I hope you still got your bibles open. Neil Maya

Neil my chapter four, you got your.

Bibles open, and verse number one, notice what it says

verse number one. Verse number one is where I watch this,

your progress has a sound. Okay, yah, y'all missed that, Paul,

look at say my progress has a sound because the

Bible said that the moment that some ballad heard.

Are y'all, y'all, y'all looking at your bible. I'm looking here,

looking at your bible, he said when he he didn't

he didn't. He didn't see it, yet he heard it.

He heard it, which means progress has a sound.

He was triggered, not triggered during the season of the burden.

He wasn't triggered overseer during the season of prayer.

He wasn't trigger until they start moving. Can I tell

about ten of y'all in here.

The only reason that en' even mad at you is

because he hear your progress.

Because why gress has a sound? Of your progress has uself.

Even when you're quiet, Hell is listening, even when you're

moving inside ballence, Hell is listening.

And Hell, here's the sound of progress. Y'all got that?

And so then in verse number two, notice what happened

when he heard the sound of progress. The Bible says

that he begins to weaponize them through humiliation. Are y'all

saying this? Our position didn't show up in chapter one,

chapter two, or chapter three, didn't show up until chapter

four because our position weaponizes humiliation.

The Bible says that some ballance.

First weapon was wasn't a sword.

It was what he said out of his mouth.

He said it publicly, he said it loud, he performed.

Can I, the Bible says them, when he became angry,

he was creating the insists.

He ridicued the Jews. What are those feeble Jews doing?

This was designed to make them feel small in front

of an audience.

But can I tell you.

Can't always stop progress with force. Sometimes you stop it

with shame. And some of you in here the reason

you can't praise it and don't.

Worship because the enemy has tried to shame you for

something that you did long time ago. The enemy been

trying to shame you. Chaw, I don't tell them folk.

You go to that tern.

You know what you used to do, you know how

you used to act. But my Bible says that even

in my worst, when I was still a sinner.

He forgave me. He said, Grace, I.

Can't can I I need to can? I?

Hell yeah I can?

I can?

I can? I take my time. I'm almost there.

I'm That's why I'm so come here, my brother, come in,

come stand up here with me, because I'm gonna show

y'all something. It's turning front. This right here is grace.

When you was out there.

This is what happened.

God said, Okay, I'm gonna take your singing. I'm gonna

give you grace. And as long as you're with Jesus,

watch this Grace with you. Here's the problem. Here's the problem.

When you decide on your own to do what you

wanna do, then why have you walk off? But you

leave grace behind and you go out and do what

you wanna do and say what you wanna say. Watch this,

and then you come back to church, come back to

my brother. You come back and say I'm under grace,

and you are. But then you say, well, you know

he didn't do nothing at time, so I'm gonna go

back and do something else. And you go again, and

then you come back. Come on, you come back, You

get on the hall. Girl.

I thank you for grace.

But now here, here's the big problem. Now you've got

comfortable poem.

Doing what you wanna do. And so now go down

that walk. You go all the way out there, cause

he didn't he didn't kill you, He didn't let you

go to jail.

You didn't get no baby. And now you say, honey,

Grace got me. But let me tell you something. You

can't be testing grace like that. Let me get back,

Let me get back. You come back to your seat. Yeah,

he'll come back.

They'll tell me. Let me give it. Let me go back.

So opposition, what's this?

Opposition marks marks your resources.

It laughs at your.

Faith, not because it believes you failed, but because it's

afraid you will succeed. And that's about ten people on

this side. I don't know why I keep talking to y'all,

but I see millionaires over here. Yeah that I bost

see Unda da Bahia. I see some entrepreneurs over here.

And the devil then told you you wouldn't go fun seed.

But I just need about three worshippers over here to

begin the worship here. I'm I said, I need about

three worshiper man.

I ain't failed.

I'm getting ready to make a sound with my progress.

I'm getting ready. I got a hook, see the end.

Been trying to shame you and embarrass you and talking

all public around people. And here's the problem that really

triped me out because in verse three to Bayer, who

is standing with that ballad, he see how saf ballad

is talking to them, so he decided he gonna get

a little piece too, So he gonna holler off and say,

if the if the little, if the if the a

fox climb up on the wall, it would break down

the wall of stones. Not just what he's saying, he's

trying to say that what they were doing was so

insignificant and so weak that even a fox would knock

it down. Some what thing you gotta do with church anniversary?

Because folks been talking, People have been talking what.

They think they had. They ain't been over twenty seven

where they get twenty seven. Now we ain't hanging jing

This happening like you know how people do.

But look at thetless to let them talk. See some

of y'all too sensitive. You don't like people talking about you.

That's how I know you ain't ready for the next

level of ministry, because when you get to this level,

of ministry. Baby, they gonna talk about you, they gonna

charge you, they gonna look at you crazy. But tell

them give them something to talk about. Because progress is

gonna speak for me.

I'm getting ready to close the enemy.

The enemy always tries to make what God is building

look fragile. But the wall doesn't have to be finished

to be protected. It just has to keep rising. God

stop looking for you to be finished. He just wants

you to keep moving. I wish I had a real

church in here. Look at your neighbors, say this season.

You got to keep moving even when they don't look favorable.

You got to keep moving, even when the people don't come.

You got to keep moving.

If on the time people show up, you got the.

Look at your name and say name, tell him you

got to keep moving.

You got to keep rising.

You got to keep praising. You got to keep worshiping.

You got to keep lessening him up.

He shot.

Right. We almost there, were almost there, because I gotta

show you this.

I gotta show you. I gotta show you this. So

all of that happening to Neil.

Maya, all he had was a burden, y'all.

Y'all missed that.

All he had was a burden for the people. His

burden led to assignment. His assignment led to participation and proximity.

But his proximity and his participation led to opposition. And

the Bible says in verse number six, So we built

the NFV says, we rebuilt the wall. I can stop

right there, because what that just told me. Out of

all the stuff he just went through, nothing stopped him

from rebuilding the wall. I wish I had a real church.

Something of y'all can't handle the relying on you. Some

of you can't hundred the people talking about you.

But if they everything they did.

Look at somebody and say they care building. I feel

a real churching right now. I said, look at somebody

and say they keiret building. They had opposition, They had

people talking about him, laughing at him, making mockery up.

But in spite of all that, they kept on building.

I need you to look at your neighbor and say, neighbor,

whatever you've been through, don't stop building.

Don't stop praying.

The Bible says in verse number five that after all

of that, know this, but nil Maya did went into prayer,

start praying. I'm trying to tell you what you are

to do it. Start praying when you don't know no

other way. Start praying when you can't find these, Start

praying when you don't know where your joy is. Stop

praying when you don't know where your piece here. I

wish y'auld talk back to me. Where you don't know

where your money at, where you ain't got no friend,

when you ain't got your the pond, Look at somebody says,

stop praying. So the Bible says in verse number six,

And I gotta go to my seat, he said. Despite

the mockery, despite the ridicule, despite the shame, the wall

kept going up, every section, every gate, every family, every priest,

every merchant. Rising now because y'all missed the party.

In verse number six.

Verse number six said, we rebuilt the walls here it

is until all of it. I mean to look at

somebody saying all of it. No, y'all, y'all ain't saying

that right. Look at your names.

Say all of it this for three of y'all.

When you give God this next show, God said.

I'm gonna do all of it. Put y'all one, two,

three go go.

He said, I'm not gonna leave nothing behind. I'm gonna

do all of it. I'm gonna here, y'all, I'm gonna

deliver off. I'm aa sack for somebody.

Hell, all of it, all of it. Come on, I said,

my lives somebody.

And tell them God getting regular do all.

Of it.

Money.

Maybe you don't need God to do nothing. Maybe you

don't need God to do nothing. I just I put

my feet.

In the water, and I just launched a new business.

See the Bible says, the Bible says, where was we

at in there? The Bible says the they believe it's

in Joshua, And the Bible says in Joshua that that

the Lord told Joshua said, when the priest who carried

the Ark of the Covenant, when they put their feet

in the water. Yeah, y'all missed that. He didn't say

when they get to the bank. He said, as soon

asked the feet get in the water. Watch this that

everything that's.

An obstacle was gonna stop.

I'm just trying to find some people who says I'm

ready to get my feet wet.

I'm ready to get my feet wetter.

My feet man dry too longer, but I'm ready to

get my feet wet.

I'm ready to trust God. I wish I had.

Three people who are getting outside your people and walk

and get your feet wet. I'm getting my feet wet.

What does that mean?

I'm getting ready to make progress.

It's time I lost me.

I'm getting ready of my progress is getting ready to release.

The sound said everything I may believe in, it's getting

ready to happen.

It's getting ready to happen. It's getting ready to happen.

Remains in four point night.

But joy good.

I'm reminded. I'm reminded of the man who had that person.

And the Bible said they were sitting there at the gate,

and they said, there's some food over there, but if

we go in there, they're gonna kill us. And one

of the other men said, well, we can go in

they're gonna kill us, but if we sit here, they're

gonna kill us too.

So they said, why sit ye here and die? WA's

what happened. So the Bible says they go in.

And God amplifies the progress.

Y'all just missed that.

If they had never moved, they never would have. And

some of us are we keep saying I ain't.

Gonna do nothing.

The pastor ask me, I ain't gonna do nothing. They

last time, get out of your feelings. Jasmine Sullivan said,

pick up your feelings.

Baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, come.

On, tell you name said pick up your feelings. Whatever

happened last year, that was last year. Tell them I

need you to move this year. The Bible says that

as they moved, God amplified the sound that the enemies

men inside. They thought it was a thousand army y'all,

not her soldiers.

And that and then maya. What caused the wall.

To be built is that the people, the Bible says,

watched this had a mind, not a mind, the gossip,

not a mind, the backpipe, the.

Pastor No, I've been over this position twenty years.

That's the problem. You've been over twenty years and it

ain't dead nothing.

You know.

The church is the only one that behind in the

NBA and in the NFL.

They would move. Somebody watch this after.

They won, You'd be like, why they moving? They just

won the Super Bowl? Why they ain't trading him? Only

in the in the world do they realize when somebody

needs to be moved to another area. It's that in

the church we want to hold positions forever. Only in

the church. We don't want to see progress. No, mother,

ain't that I'm trying to move you. But I need

you to be over here in the prayer. You by

now you need to be an intercessor of prayer. You

still want to be church secretary.

And we ain't even count money like that.

No more?

Do you still want to be over the choir.

Singing Uh, I ain't finnah singing no song that's nobody.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's the song they used to sing. My mama used

to get me up for Sunday school every morning.

I'm climbing up on the rough side of the mountains.

I'm too in my best to make it. Here's the

problem with that song. That's a good song. But Jesus

never told us to climb the mountain.

He told us to speak to the mountain.

If you sweek to the mountains, the mountain wasn't moboud

of your way?

I got to go. I needs all to help me

with this. Look at your name as a neighbor.

God, it's giving you momentum in the middle some of y'all.

You in the middle of a bad marriage, You're in

the middle.

Of broken thinness. You in the middle. But God sent me.

From Klovies Numan to go to tell you you are

about forget momentum. You about forget momentum in the middle.

You are about forget sir in the middle. You are

about forget joy in the middle, said said, He's about

to give you mon Come on and left your hands.

If you need strict of God, if you need how,

if you need wisdom, He's about to.

Give you no mental home for your journey.

She loved nothing to do with her all. You got

to do it in receive a listening.

For me.

Come on that clasp your hands, about to give you

a moment.

Say right, you.

Look at somebody, tell your name and say the neighbor.

Tell them. Don't get stuck in the middle.

I heard somebody yours and say, God started it and

he'll finish it. But you got to work the middle.

Let me say that again. God started it and God

don't finish it. But you got to work the middle.

The middle. Everybody's standing all over this place. Come on, y'all.

What I like about the story of neil Maya. The

Bible says, when they looked around, they saw all the rubble,

all the dust and dirt. You know, when you when

when you're doing instruction, you kick up a lot of dirt.

You cause a lot of dirt.

And the Bible says that they looked at the rubble

and they became here.

It is discouraged.

And some of you you discouraged because you keep looking

at the rubble.

In your life. You keep looking look at the dust

in your life. But here's the partitive story that I

really liked. Because while they were looking at the dirt

and the dust, they didn't even realize that.

The wall was almost done. The wall was halfway up,

but they couldn't see it because they were looking at

what was around them. God did not let this church

make it to twenty seven years.

But somebody looking at the rubble.

Somebody had a burden, Somebody had an assignment.

Somebody has preparation.

And proximity, proximity to God. And that's twenty seven years ago.

I'm talking to people in the present. God says, I'm

looking for somebody right now.

Who got a burden.

Who know your assignment, whatever it is that you're close

to in the ministry, that's where your assignment is. Quit

trying to get in other people's assignment. See when you

start something. You're so excited you don't see what nobody

else is doing.

It's only in the middle that you start looking over.

And see other people blessed, see other people getting stuff

that you thought you should have had. But the Lord

sent me here today, he said, Tell the people, I'm

getting ready to focus them in the middle so that

they can be productive in the middle. I'm getting ready

to cloak. But here it is Pastor gave me. He

gave me, He said, I'm okay, I'm not gonna be loan.

But if you in this place and you know you're

in the middle of something right now, nobody youn told nobody.

You ain't talked about it, but you're in the middle

or something, and the enemy is trying to stop your progress.

Come on, lift your hands all over this building. I

don't want you worried about who is here. I don't

want you to worry about what.

Folk gonna say.

Ain't none of their business, because I'm trying to get

to the finished point. I'm trying to get to what

God promises me. Because the middle is with your vision

and what God shows you don't look the same. You say, God,

this ain't have my life, This ain't what I saw.

By this time, I thought I was gonna be married

with children. I was gonna be with the school. I

was gonna have a degree and a bachelors and a master's.

You telling them both. See how y'all. I just need

some worshipers in here. Come on, I need some worship ers.

Open your mouth.

Come on.

This is not what I saw myself, and you've gotten

stuck in the middle. This is what I want to do.

I'm gonna count the three. I don't want you to

wait on nobody. I don't want you to think about

it when I count the three. I want you to

come to this all time with your hands and liffit

and no watch it. Let me help you. You're not

coming to get out of the middle. You're coming to

get strict in the middle. You're coming to get momentum

in the middle. Come on, if your hands, come on.

I feel I see some tears. I see some some

people are breaking. God's getting ready to do you in

the middle. Your marriage, it's in the middle of I

started off happy. I was hoping we'd meet forever. But

now we're talking about divorce. You're in the middle. You're

in the middle. That son he was a good kid,

and you saw his future. But in the middle, he's

in jail. I know you're in here. When I count

to three, I want you to come. Don't y'all hurt nobody,

but I want you to come. We're gonna pray for

your one two three, move quickly, move out of yo.

See come on, come with your hands up.

Come come come, come, come, come, come, come, come come on,

come on, come on, come on.

I'm in the middle, but he getting ready to give

me momentum in the middle.

Come come up, come, come, come on, y'all, come up

your ConA. Look at what now he's I'm in the

middle of it, but I mean strind you tell no, sire,

come on messing over your mouth.

Ain't nobody got to lay hand on you. Ain't nobody

got putting no iel on you.

So oil is on the inside of you. The oil

is on the inside of you.

Real come myself now, I'm on, come on, come on.

I decreate decland that.

He's giving you strength in the middle of.

What you in him.

I de create the cloud.

He's resigning your fishing and the middle or where you

in him? More mantime in the middle, more men, time

in the middle. More man tim in the middle. Come on,

let me hear your sound. Because this is what you

do when you in the middle. This is how you

rescond when you in the middle. He's giving you momentum

in the middle. He's given you momentum in the middle.

He's given you momentum in the middle. He's given your

strength in the middle.

Wat's this.

He's given you a praer life in the middle. He's

giving you a.

Praer life in the middle. He's teaching you how to

call on God in the middle. Because watch this.

Because when you try to talk to other people, they

couldn't help you anyway. And so in the middle, it's

where God refinds you.

In the middle. Watch this is where God prepares you are.

He's with paring you.

Watch this because there's somebody on the other side that's

waiting on you. That's what I want you to do.

Everybody on this altar, I just hold you. I'm not

gonna lay hands on you because.

I ain't God. I'm not gonna put no on you,

because I want you to trust the oil that's hitting you.

Look at that. I want something, I say, say.

I have the oio tall again. I have the adio,

the allio it's in me. The allio is in my man,

the allio it's in my mouth. So for the next

sixty seconds, some of y'all already there, God already doing

it for you.

He's giving you strength in the middle of what you're in.

Because I hear you saying, God, I don't know how

I'm gonna get through this.

I don't know how I'm gonna make it out of this.

But the Holy Spirit is that He sent you to

this service in particular, so that you've been here, that

you're about to get strengthed where you are. One day

I was preaching and I was telling people, you're coming out,

You're coming out, You're coming out, And God said, quit

telling people that.

He said, because when you're always telling them the coming out,

you're causing him to have prettmature blessings. Everybody ain't meant

to come out right. Some of you need to stay

in Wat's this until you get done. Because if you

take a cake out of the oven before it's cook

that cake gonna be.

If you take that hay I'm in that turkey out

of the oven.

Before time, it's not gonna be done. So the people

that this ought to hear me. This ain't godfin to

bring you out. No, godfind to give you strength. God

find to give you strength.

He's gonna give.

You momentum in the middle watch this. But when you

get this momentum, it's gonna be so powerful and so

strong that when you do come out, you won't even

recognize you out.

So this is what I want, and I'm gone.

I want you when I count the three, I want

you to worship him.

I want you to go for broke. Now we may

I don't know if y'all fall out. I don't know.

I wanted what to tell you, so we may need

some catch us because the Holy go's gonna do something

in this place. I don't want you looking at me.

I don't want you waiting. I want you to go

for broke because whatever you do right now is how

you are about to live the rest.

Of your life.

Whatever you do right now, in this moment, it's gonna

be the thing that God's gonna use every time. Look

at your neighbors, say neighbor, tell him. I don't mean

no harm, but I need you to go for bro

I need tell your neighbors.

Say neighbor.

Matter of fact, this first worship is for you.
