  1. Well, praise the Lord. We're gonna try this again. We

  2. had to do this about three times, but I think

  3. we got it. Yes, this is Eternal Fire Ministry, the

  4. Holy Spirit Ministry, unextinguished. Yes, my name is Jonathan Hardwick,

  5. the one and only. As I said before, there are

  6. many names that are Jonathan Hardwick, but they don't have

  7. my DNA. They don't have my God Dna. We are

  8. fired up and charged up. The Holy Spirit moved in

  9. the room. We heard God speak. He said he promised

  10. some things. He said he was going to do some things.

  11. But we know that they're already done. Our praise is

  12. the one that says it's already done. As I said.

  13. If you would like to get in contact with this ministry,

  14. telephone number eight six zero five zero zero eight three seven. No,

  15. I'm not asking you for any money. If you look

  16. at any of our podcasts, we don't ask you for money.

  17. Ain't that something? We don't muffle the ox here. We're

  18. trying to get some ox saved. That's right, that's right.

  19. How many people do you have in your ministry? Enough? See,

  20. you want five hundred people and can't get them outside.

  21. Some of you got eight and don't want to do outreach.

  22. That's okay. The harvest to just be for me. You

  23. can sit there and watch. That's right. I know some

  24. of you had Thanksgiving, You had your crazy relatives over there,

  25. y'all were talking about those politics. Honey, tonight, I got

  26. something for you. I want to address a statement that

  27. many of us in this room are saying to God.

  28. When it comes to us spending time with God in

  29. his presence, the excuses become the priority of our daily

  30. conversation with God. Sometimes our excuses are on the only

  31. conversation we have with God. I want to address some

  32. people this evening. We have time for everything else. Everybody

  33. else would end up changing their time with God and

  34. replacing it with things that steal His time with us.

  35. I want to address some reasons why many of us

  36. find it difficult to spend time with God. Many of

  37. us want God to pardon us when we should be

  38. at a place where we recognized that the things we

  39. give our time to. I hope somebody's listening, the things

  40. that we give our time to, ultimately is what we

  41. become consumed to. The title of the message is and

  42. I had to think about this for a minute. Let

  43. me turn it up to say, y'all, can hear me?

  44. The title of my message is pardon me. I had

  45. a conflict of interest. Oh, this is the first part.

  46. God was dealing with me about conflicts of interest. Now,

  47. like I said, I'm gonna try to keep it sober,

  48. but I don't know something. Whenever we make this statement,

  49. I had a conflict of interest. When a person has

  50. compelling interest, whether personal or financial, and that could interfere

  51. with their personal judgment, decision or duties. This compromise the

  52. objective and the integrity of their actions, as they may

  53. be tempted to act in a way that benefits themselves

  54. rather than their employer, clients, or another party to whom

  55. they owe a duty. Oh God, I know something. You

  56. wish you could turn the channel, but God told you

  57. to listen. If you notice the definition, it says you

  58. owe a duty to the previous party. It just means

  59. that the true person or the thing you really owe

  60. duty to you have forfeit this for something or somebody

  61. else that is higher or more important than the person

  62. who helped the original duty. Too, I had a conflict

  63. of interest. We're gonna have to change today, Oh nobody.

  64. I had to tell you this. I wish I could

  65. tell God that, and why, you know what, but I

  66. have to take it back. I find myself doing that lately. Lately,

  67. I haven't been in the presence of God. I have

  68. not been in fellowship with him. It seems like God's

  69. en foosed with me. But you know how we do well, Lord.

  70. I wish I could spend time, but I really gotta

  71. get to the store because I don't have any food

  72. in my house. If you notice the definition, as I

  73. said before, it says that you still owe a duty

  74. to the previous party and you forfeited it for something else.

  75. In other words, God at this point was the most

  76. important person on the schedule, because I know how some

  77. of y'all do. You put God on a schedule. But

  78. now he has gotten moved to the back of the

  79. list because he has become our conflict of interest. He

  80. is no longer important because there are other things that

  81. have sold our time to that he holds a duty

  82. to some of us in this room and some of

  83. us listening to podcasts. You better listen to me, good.

  84. Don't realize that the conflict that we're having is because

  85. the very thing that as our interest is the thing

  86. that has first place in our lives. Let me just

  87. talk about this because I've can talk about this because

  88. I'm going through it right now. I'm gonna act like

  89. I'm going towards the door because I think some of

  90. y'all gonna be leaving after the very thing that you

  91. put God first, the very thing the interests. Because I

  92. know a lot of us have interest. We have our hobbies.

  93. I know that on Saturday, I have my basketball practice.

  94. I'm trying to lose a little bit away, and there's

  95. nothing wrong with that. But when you begin to luve

  96. things more than God, that means that you have a

  97. conflict of interest. Your interest becomes your conflicts. See some

  98. of you hear me, but you're not hearing me. Let

  99. me tell you what's about to happen. I guess I'll

  100. go prophetic on you. Some of you don't realize you're

  101. about to be forced to spend time a forced not

  102. to spend time with God because there are gonna be

  103. some circumstances that you're not going to be able to

  104. go forward in unless you have instruction. Y'all not trying

  105. to hand me, but I'm gonna help you with your

  106. conflict of interest. When there is enmity, there is conflict.

  107. What does enmity mean? You know we've heard this before,

  108. to be in opposition with There is always going to

  109. be an opposing factor. M hm. Yes, as long as

  110. we allow our own interests, y'all listen to this because

  111. God gave it to me. I'm gonna tell you, I'm

  112. gonna repeat it again. I want you to hear very carefully.

  113. There is always going to be an opposing factor as

  114. long as we allow our own interest to add more interest,

  115. meaning not the desire, but the cost of taking our

  116. borrow time and putting it on things that are in

  117. deficit instead of appreciating. Well, what do you mean by that?

  118. What does it mean? What does it mean? It means

  119. when God is calling us, not gonna act stup by God,

  120. don't be calling you. Don't center it. Act like God's

  121. calling you. Some of you step out the door and

  122. you know that God's calling you to stay home. Why

  123. would God now all of a sudden, wants me to steal?

  124. He knows I've got to go to my soccer practice.

  125. He knows I gotta go to this church make steal.

  126. But I don't feel impressed in my spirit to go anywhere.

  127. Come on, now, some of you don't realize. I guess

  128. some of you must have forgot Oh God, I know

  129. I can feel in the living room now. See some

  130. of you don't realize you're not your own This is

  131. very common. But some of you just take God for granted.

  132. We don't want the sacrifice that we're gonna have to

  133. go through. We don't want to have to give up

  134. some of our interests. That means you're gonna have to

  135. give up the baked sale. That means you're gonna have

  136. to give up the soccer practice. That means you're gonna

  137. have to give up the cooka ka karate. You don't

  138. have to come through in the spirit. You're gonna have

  139. to give that up for a season because y'all don't

  140. want love lod mm hmmmm. So it means we become

  141. interested in fulfilling things that are of a deficit to

  142. our spirit. I'm gonna help you with something because this

  143. means we are putting ourselves in a conflict of God's

  144. own interests in our lives. See, when you appreciate God,

  145. y'all don't understand appreciation. Appreciate God. It means that you're

  146. willing to appreciate the interest in God and apply it

  147. to the thing that has eternal value. See, eternal value

  148. always has a return. Yes God. Oh, y'all don't want

  149. to hear about finance. What see? You want to sit

  150. there and waste your time with a fleshly conversation or

  151. a fleshly Oh we're having a game night, shaoh? Are

  152. you coming to the game, Yeah, because you're too busy

  153. playing games. See, I can't get caught up in games.

  154. I'm trying to get to a tested, trying to just

  155. board game. I'm trying to play the game of the spirits.

  156. I'm trying to play the game of God. And let

  157. me tell you something. I don't have time to waste

  158. my interests on things that are of deficit. I don't

  159. have time to play with you or play with the

  160. enemy that you play with. Ad mm hmm. We don't

  161. have time, okay, to put our interest in things that

  162. have deficits. Well, what are you talking about, honey? Let

  163. me tell you something. How many people entertain conversations. Some

  164. people could sit on that phone in gossip all night long,

  165. and we sit there, honey all the and why you're

  166. sitting there entertaining the devil. That room is sitting there vacant.

  167. Your room is sitting up in their vacant I'm waiting

  168. for your knees get on the floor. And in the

  169. meantime I done sat there and gave all my interest

  170. in my being to you in your interesting gossiping. Oh y'all,

  171. don't want to hear it, talk about it, tell it.

  172. Let me help you out. There is always going to

  173. be something that gets your attention off of God. And

  174. I'm telling you right now, God is trying to realign

  175. some people in the things of the spirit. We ain't listening.

  176. You don't see all the stuff going on around you,

  177. all of the certain signs that he's showing you. I

  178. ain't talking about Jesus coming, but I'm talking about being

  179. in his presence and understanding. God was dealing with me today.

  180. He was saying, Jonathan, let me tell you something. People

  181. don't understand what's coming. See, they're sitting here wasting time

  182. with things that are a deficit. They're not sitting here

  183. trying to get some interest in the spirit. Because when

  184. you get interest in the spirit, let me tell you something,

  185. when the deficits start coming Hey, you've got some interest,

  186. some appreciation in your spirit. That means that you can

  187. stand in the midst of everything drying up. But if

  188. you can stand in your spirit knowing that He can

  189. deposit something in my spirit in the midst when it

  190. seems like their spiritual famine in the land, honeyed up.

  191. I don't care. I don't have to get from your

  192. your sister, and I don't have to give from your reservoir.

  193. I got my own reservoir that I can come into

  194. because the Holy ghost of It's been stirring in my spirits.

  195. If I've been in the presence of God, if I've

  196. been in His glory in the worship and had that

  197. expirens individually, when the famine comes, I can't drow. I

  198. can draw from my own sister. That's right, right. Your

  199. interests have to become His interests. Father. You are not

  200. a person of your own. See some of us think, oh,

  201. we got saved. But guess when I'm a rule what

  202. I want to rule and give God when I want

  203. to give. Oh no, honey, it don't work like that. Baby.

  204. I wish it worked that way with me, honey, because

  205. I did not sign up but for this type of

  206. position that I'm in. Come on God, Yes, Lord, mm hmmmm,

  207. thank you Lord. Romans Chapter seven. Let's just go there,

  208. cause Jones, let me go to your first conflict. I'm

  209. gonna talk about conflicts. I probably might just get to

  210. one and we'll come back and do the rest. But

  211. I'm gonna go to the one that y'all having a

  212. problem with. H The first conflict is your conflict of schedule.

  213. But I'm gonna speak to some people on podcasts and

  214. some people in this room. Your schedule is about the change.

  215. I don't care what your appointment is. I don't care

  216. what you done scheduled. Honey, it is about to be

  217. a delay in your schedule because God is sick and

  218. tired of calling. It. Ain't nobody answering. See what casual

  219. about this thing? We live in the United States of America.

  220. We are the home of the free, the free of

  221. the home, the home of the brave. And we can

  222. sit there and salute a flag and we got the

  223. you know the pleasures of spending time with God within

  224. our one hour of a day schedule. And you know,

  225. we can just incorporate God, you know in our daily

  226. you know, before and wake up first thing in the morning.

  227. It's me and God. It's me and God. But first

  228. I gotta have my coffee. Your coffee is before God. Honey.

  229. I'm i'm aa rock. Some of your world, honey, your

  230. schedules are about to change. Some of the times that

  231. you say you're gonna be getting up, that's the time

  232. when you're gonna be praying. And the time that you're

  233. gonna be sleeping, the time that you think you're supposed

  234. to be sleeping, that's when you're gonna be praying. Oh somebody,

  235. and I'm hearing up in there. You're gonna think I'm

  236. crazy when it starts happening. Because sometimes when God wants

  237. to do something different, yeah, he's gotta move you in

  238. a different place of Some of you are so used

  239. to having a routine that at six o'clock in the morning,

  240. me and God get together and we pray at that time.

  241. But honey, I'm gonna tell you something. You can't put

  242. God in your orderly arrangement because God in according to

  243. your orderly arrangement. He's got his own order and it's

  244. the order of the spirit. And when you wants to

  245. move he don't care what time it is. Your don't care.

  246. I's three o'clock, four o'clock rock, five o'clock, six o'clock,

  247. seven o'clock rock. He don't care what time it is.

  248. I get spirit when I get up and have some worship.

  249. I'm sorry, he don't get your behind up at two

  250. or three o'clock in the morning. He's gonna want to

  251. have a worship experience, because the only way that God

  252. can have a worship experience, it's through your temple. Your

  253. temple has to get up God, right, who an't making

  254. me worse? Right now? God making me worse? We don't

  255. try to record two times? And he was like, no,

  256. that ain't happening. As soon as we will to the

  257. liber room. See, as soon as we did something else,

  258. as soon as I went against my conflict of interests,

  259. I came in the liber room. Guess what now he's flowing.

  260. I guess We got the praise and the worship up

  261. in there, and then we had to come in here

  262. and get the word. Romans chapter eight, verse seven. I'm

  263. gonna go to your problem Romans eight seven. Let's find

  264. out what your issue is. I'm gonna tell you what

  265. it is. As long as you have a flesh man, Yes,

  266. and we're gonna talk about that. I ain't talking about

  267. your skin. That's not the flesh. I had to go

  268. over s Guad to give a Bible Romans, chapter eight,

  269. verse seven. We'll start at verse verse five. I'm gonna

  270. minister something y'all all want to hear, because that's what

  271. prophets do. They minternce this stuff you only want to hear.

  272. I don't. I mean this this stuff you don't want

  273. to hear. And that's why we're sitting here. But three

  274. people in the living room, y'all sitting up here hearing

  275. these lion prophets talk about last night I heard the

  276. one say, Oh God, I don't know what has happened

  277. to these prophetic voices. The Lord is speaking to me

  278. that there's going to be an increase in UFOs. Have

  279. y'all lost your mind? How does the word of God

  280. agree with man's word? How does the word of God

  281. agree with man's word? Man talks about UFOs? Well, I mean,

  282. you do got some foreigners of the spirit. I mean,

  283. maybe that's the UFOs you're talking about people that have

  284. been come on the church scene. But God is spirit.

  285. Maybe that's a foreign UFOs to you, and they say

  286. unidentified object. Maybe there are some UFOs coming, just not

  287. the UFOs you're talking about. I think he's going to

  288. be sending a UFO of his spirit. Maybe you won't

  289. be able to identify with it, okay, Romans eight, verse five.

  290. For they that are after the flesh do mind the

  291. things of the flesh. But they that are after the

  292. spirit the things of the spirit. Now that's straight into

  293. the point. There is no neutral there is no middle ground,

  294. there is no compromise. Those that mind the things of

  295. the spirit want to do the things of the spirit.

  296. They don't want to entertain things of the flesh. Right,

  297. So why are we sitting up here entertaining things of

  298. the flesh and saying we're spiritual? Oh God, because you've

  299. got a conflict of interest. For they that are after

  300. the things of the flesh to mind the things of

  301. the flesh, But they that are after the spirit the

  302. things of the spirit. Look at this, For the be

  303. carnally minded is death, But to be spiritually minded is

  304. life and peace. Yes, because the carnal mind is enmity

  305. against God, for it is not subject to the law

  306. of Looking at that right there, it doesn't want to

  307. be obedient true to the law of God. Neither indeed

  308. can be Look at that right there. Let me go

  309. to work because I can see it's gonna be late.

  310. And I know some of you have conflicting schedules in

  311. the morning that some of you have to go to

  312. church tomorrow. That's another one of your conflicts of interest. Well,

  313. I gotta get up tomorrow. I know you record this

  314. at eight thirty four. I really wanted to listen to it,

  315. but I gotta go to church tomorrow. Well what if

  316. God said no, The Lord wouldn't tell me not to

  317. go to his house. The Lord wouldn't tell me to

  318. stay home from the father's house. Honey, that's not the

  319. father's house, right, The building isn't the father's house. You

  320. are the father's house, and he dwells and you and

  321. sometimes the people in church, the only thing close to

  322. the glory they're gonna get is when you walk in

  323. the house. Oh, I know that, y'all know, y'all into

  324. some dead churches. Probably the church you're going to tomorrow

  325. is half dead. And the only reason why the praise

  326. and worship team as halfway sound is when you walk

  327. in the door with the glory. Okay, now let's define

  328. the flesh for a minute. I'm not talking about the

  329. body with skin on it. I think we have to

  330. go to another level with that. I'm not talking about

  331. your skin. Those that are after the flesh, meaning the

  332. things that they chase, actor that are fleshly, the desires

  333. that fulfill the enjoyment of the flesh. That's some of

  334. your interests. The human experience. Oh, I know I'm talking

  335. to somebody. I hope somebody's listening. It's consistent. It's constant

  336. to the point where you're chasing after it and only

  337. it you have become entangled with it. Oh. I know

  338. some of you can relate to that, because the minute

  339. your boss says there's overtime, you jump right on it.

  340. But when God says I need to spend time with

  341. you and give me some overtime in the room of prayer,

  342. some of you say, well, I got this bill, I

  343. gotta pay you. See conflict of interest, and some are

  344. enslaved to it. The flesh of the Greek means sarsix

  345. flesh as strict of the skin, the body as opposed

  346. to the soul or spirit, or as the symbol of

  347. what is external or as the means of kindred or

  348. human nature, human being. So the flesh is not your skin.

  349. It's not your scab that you got when you fell

  350. off the bike. It's not your flesh. It is what's

  351. behind the face. It's what's it's what's behind your motives,

  352. your thoughts. Who you are when you take that coat off?

  353. Oh you, who are you really? After you come from church?

  354. Do you put on righteousness? Whereas some people say clean,

  355. but I said, those that say they clean, nay uncleanness,

  356. They are after the flesh. This is consistently in the mind,

  357. that it's constantly chasing things only in this present cosmos.

  358. Constantly the pattern of your thinking is constantly on pleasing

  359. your flesh that you haven't mastered the purpose of getting

  360. behind the flesh and allowing your spirit to get in

  361. front of it. What does that mean when your flesh

  362. is dead, when your interests are dead, it projects the spirit.

  363. But there are things in this life that still holds

  364. you as a hostage to serve, things that have no

  365. eternal value. You can read Second Corinthians five one on

  366. your time. But see, we know what takes our time.

  367. We know what takes our interests. Our interests must now

  368. become the interests of God. For we know that if

  369. our earthly house of this tabernacle is dissolved, we have

  370. a building of God, a house not made with hands. See,

  371. the flesh is only the structure that was created from cosmos.

  372. Cosmos is classified as the orderly arrangement. So what is

  373. he talking about with orderly arrangement? Because I say it

  374. a lot. The orderly arrangement is the adorning world. Now,

  375. I want wants you to be very clear, everyone's orderly

  376. arrangement is not the same. The orderly arrangement is the

  377. systematical structured organization of items, data, people that follow a

  378. sequential or logic. Things that are arranged in a logical

  379. or regular pattern, making them easy to understand. I want

  380. you to go to first down two fifteen, First down

  381. two fifteen. Mm hm, yes what first down two fifteen.

  382. So again, the orderly arrangement the systematical structured organization of items, data, people,

  383. sequential logic, and that logic is depend upon each individual.

  384. Your logic is not Cheral's logic, Apro's logic is not

  385. Sheral's logic. In my logic an't your logic we are

  386. all organized structures of an organization through the cosmos, through

  387. the world. The world has its own orderly arrangement. Look

  388. at how the cities are built. Look at how buildings

  389. are structured. They're organized from the blueprint all the way

  390. up to the physicality of what it is. They are

  391. in order. Churches have organizations that are in order, where

  392. they try to put Jesus in order. But see, Jesus

  393. was never intended to be in order order, not in

  394. order in order. So first John two fifteen, let me

  395. go there, Lord, if my Bible could just pull up,

  396. it'd be nice, be nice, if they could just pull up.

  397. Let me see. Okay, I guess I'll have to go

  398. back the pages first John two fifteen. They beat me

  399. to it, all Right, here we go. I'm trying to

  400. get my notes back. It says love not the world,

  401. neither the things that are in the world. What is

  402. he saying, do not love the orderly arrangement or the

  403. things that are in the orderly arrangement? Now I want

  404. to be very clear, there is nothing wrong with loving

  405. the things associated with your world. Now, notice I said

  406. your world. I'm not talking about the globe. The globe

  407. is just the manifestation of God showing you that there

  408. are things that are of the unseen, that the things

  409. of the of the scene have come from the realms

  410. of the unseen. That's what the globe's for. But the

  411. world he's talking about is the world in your mind.

  412. Your mind is a world in itself, yes, and that

  413. is the thing that needs to be renewed, And that

  414. is the thing that needs to be redeemed. Is your

  415. thought process, because your thoughts are wired to the things

  416. of this world. And it's not the globe, it's the influences.

  417. It is the culture. Like Michael Jackson said, I don't

  418. care if you're black or white. I'm sorry. That's a

  419. part of the world. That's world thinking, worldview, your finances,

  420. the things that you think about your finances, your children,

  421. the things you think about your children, the things you

  422. talk to your children. Don't overspend it the grocery store

  423. because you're gonna lose all the money in your account.

  424. All that is part of the world world thinking. But

  425. God his word is saying, don't fall in love with

  426. it to the point where it consumes you into the world.

  427. That's why the Bible says, what profit a man if

  428. he gains the whole world, if you gain every bit

  429. of what you're interested in, if you're successful in every

  430. area of your own interests, what profit is it if

  431. you gain the whole world. He's not just talking about

  432. the globe. He's talking about your thinking. And you're thinking

  433. prospers in every area that stepped in based upon the world.

  434. What is the point of profiting everything in your mind?

  435. But you're losing the very soul essence of who you

  436. are while you're chasing after these things. You're losing your

  437. soul in them. You don't know how many people are

  438. sitting to me telling me I'm gonna get two jobs.

  439. So just like your son said on Thanksgiving, I'm working

  440. on a second job now. He works third shift from

  441. ten to seven. And he said he's gonna work from

  442. seven in the morning all the way up until the afternoon.

  443. I said, when do you get any rest? Well, I

  444. can get about one hour of rest and I'm good.

  445. What profit is it that you're working all of these hours.

  446. I'm gonna tell you something. See, God will let you

  447. work yourself to death. I mean, he's gonna win either way.

  448. He says, Well, since you want to work fifty and

  449. sixty hours doing uber. I guess I can let you

  450. work for death because either way you're still gonna come

  451. to me dead. You're still gonna come to me dead.

  452. I don't care. I gotta get you one way or another.

  453. So you're not winning with God when you abstain from

  454. his presence because you're pissed off at him. Let's see

  455. how long you can last at all. You end up

  456. beating yourself back Listen, it's just like a rubber man.

  457. You stretch it far enough about it's gonna come back on.

  458. So you're not winning. But what profit a man if

  459. he gave the whole world, would lose his soul. See,

  460. you lost it in those things. You lost it in

  461. your interest, your conflict of interest. When you put your

  462. schedule above God's, you lost yourself in it. That's why

  463. something when we go back to God, we don't know

  464. who you are. It says there is nothing wrong with

  465. loving the things associated with your world. Everybody's world is

  466. different pertaining to its own individual arrangement. However, when God

  467. is calling his orderly arrangement in order with the world

  468. he saved you, many of us find ourselves trying to

  469. keep in order with our scheduled arrangements, instead of God

  470. rearranging us into his ordained arrangement. Come on, now, if

  471. I didn't say this a thousand times, God was not

  472. ordained to be in order. Now. I know the Bible

  473. says God is not the author of confusion, but of

  474. course that's in context to the church. But the order

  475. that I'm talking about is he was not ordained to

  476. be a part of the orderly arrangement. Because I'm gonna

  477. tell you right now, Cairo's time does not work with crotons.

  478. Don't know. I'm sorry. When you learn to walk in faith, honey,

  479. you're gonna be walking and think you're walking and don't

  480. know why you're walking, you're gonna be so out of order.

  481. But God said you're gonna be in order. But see,

  482. his order is not ordained by the calendar on a clock.

  483. His ordained moment is not based upon Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

  484. I'm sorry you're gonna miss it down that way. But honey,

  485. I hate to tell you. Sometimes on my Monday morning,

  486. I was supposed to be working, and then I found

  487. myself sitting at home. Okay, he just gave me I

  488. was totally He just put me totally out of order. No,

  489. he didn't put you out of order. He puts you

  490. in his order. Until you realize when you start to

  491. go into his order, he don't care what time it is.

  492. Time is suspended in his order. Lord, Lord, your Lord,

  493. your father. This is where many of us are having

  494. the conflict of interest, where it takes place when God

  495. is trying to arrange time for us. We think that

  496. timing of the arrangement conflicts outside of the orderly ordained

  497. that God has set up for us. Go back to

  498. Romans eight five. For they that are after the flesh

  499. do mind the things of the flesh, But they that

  500. are after the spirit the things of the spirit. You're

  501. after your flesh, and your thinking is focused on fulfilling

  502. the things that are processed and keep the flesh organized.

  503. But none of these things are giving you any peace

  504. if you think about it. Yeah, your flesh keeps you

  505. in order with the orderly arrangement of this cosmos, but

  506. you don't have any peace. Go ahead now, yep, because

  507. when you mind the things of the flesh, it will

  508. always keep us in a pattern of consistent conflict outside

  509. things that are eternal. Guess what peace is eternal only

  510. when you learn to suspend the mind outside of the

  511. orderly arrangement and realign it with things that are unorganized.

  512. What do you mean Wait a minute, Okay, you lost

  513. me there. You talked about unorganized. What do you mean

  514. by that? What I mean by unorganized, I'm talking about

  515. the orderly arrangement of God. God's orderly arrangement is not

  516. organized with the arrangement of this cosmic. To you, it's

  517. gonna be unorganized. They hate to tell you this. Some

  518. of you have had unorganized faith experiences. Oh like, oh, okay,

  519. all right, so I lost something down. So you mean

  520. to tell me when God said go down the street okay,

  521. and you were trying to go on the freeway to

  522. get to your job, that that was organized. No, it

  523. worked outside of your timing. Because you have something called sequence,

  524. you have something called routine, you have something called Well,

  525. I know that my navigation system is telling me to

  526. go on exit thirty four, so I'm gonna follow it.

  527. But God says, don't get on the highway. Oh y'all know,

  528. y'all have to flip. There's a conflict of interest right there.

  529. What are you talking about I take this route every

  530. single day, and I know the traffic's not going to

  531. be there until about six o'clock in the morning, and

  532. I'm gonna take the highway. Let me tell you something,

  533. true story, true story. Now I'll tell you a true

  534. story because I didn't want to listen. I had to

  535. be at the children's school to pick them up the

  536. day before Thanksgiving. It was a Tuesday, and I said, God,

  537. I gotta get there. I gotta get there before was

  538. it three twenty? I gotta get there before three twenty.

  539. Now I heard in my spirit, now this is out

  540. of order. Take the HV lane and you'll get there

  541. are but see me being religious like some of you,

  542. I had a conflict of interest with God and said

  543. that is totally I'm not gonna go out of order

  544. because I said, I don't want to know. This happened

  545. on Thanksgiving. I'm sorry I had to be there by

  546. one twenty. I said that that's gonna be a conflict

  547. of interest because I can't use the HV lane because

  548. I've gotta I've gotta. If you use the HV lane,

  549. you'll get there quicker. I said, you ain't hearing me,

  550. because you know you gotta have another person in there.

  551. But see, he didn't care about order at that time. Now,

  552. I wonder what he could have told you in your

  553. spirit had you went that way. See, it's not about

  554. the direction, it's not about the orderly arrangement at that time.

  555. I'm trying to show you something that if you listen

  556. to me right, I will get you there past or

  557. before time says that you have an appointed time. See,

  558. if you listen to me, I know that the clock

  559. says one thirty. I know that your deadline is one thirty.

  560. But if you go a route that you never been before,

  561. somebody better catch it. If you go a route that

  562. you've never been to before you get there before the deadline,

  563. somebody just missed it. You better catch it, because somebody

  564. who are not listening to me right now, God is

  565. about to take some of y'all that are listening to

  566. me right now. You're gonna be taken into different rocks

  567. that you did not plan. But guess what it's going

  568. to be God, And you're gonna save time. When you

  569. would have went the original way that you had already planned.

  570. Somebody got to catch it. That was for free. You

  571. better catch it. Thank you. Faith is unorganized, Avery Hamn's

  572. working in this farm to his rotine. I'm pretty sure.

  573. And God says, leave everything behind, come to a lane,

  574. you know, not of Oh that's organized. Oh like you

  575. planning this for a couple of days. Now, I'm sorry,

  576. but faith is random. Yes, God true story just found

  577. out today. If somebody's listening, too bad. Now, I had

  578. planned to go to Virginia. I said, I'm gonna get

  579. me a little vacation. Sit you know, sit in the hotel,

  580. actually sleep in a bed. And I'm not gonna be bothered.

  581. I'm not I'm gonna plan this to the team. We're

  582. gonna stay in a hotel. We'll stay at our favorite hotel.

  583. Now you see all the planning I'm doing, and all

  584. my interests and how I'm gonna go see the baby,

  585. and how I'm gonna go see this person. You see

  586. how your interests are. And I'm sitting in the car

  587. and I feel in my gun, past my gut, because

  588. I got a lot of guts, but I feel in

  589. my spirit. I said, no, I don't feel like going south.

  590. I don't think we're going there. I think we're going

  591. somewhere else. Now in the midst of everything that could

  592. try to distract me, everything that could pull me in

  593. that direction, everything that was connected to the orderly arrangement

  594. of this world that would try to bring me in

  595. that direction. I forfeited that, and I heard the voice

  596. say go north in my spirit. But I said, I

  597. am about to tell nor and I was gonna call

  598. my sister and say, listen, we're gonna have to check.

  599. But something didn't come out of my mouth to say anything.

  600. So when I spoke to her today, when I spoke

  601. to April today, she had a spiritual i'll say a

  602. spiritual Encountermit last year, her conflict of interest in her

  603. bedroom was disrupted. See somebody, you ain't getting it, but

  604. you're gonna get it in a minute. Her conflict of

  605. interest was interrupted. Yes, where at the time she was

  606. supposed to be sleeping, she was awoken. See some of

  607. you missing it. You're gonna catch it. She went in

  608. the bedroom and God began to speak. You know, it's funny.

  609. God don't speak in your schedule, but it speaks when

  610. it's not your schedule, right, And he said to her,

  611. Man of God, I know have you been seeking God

  612. for direct I said, yes, I have been, but she

  613. didn't hear the conversation that me and God had. I

  614. heard the Lord say go north, and Honey, I said, God,

  615. I know that was in my spirit. That's what I'm

  616. talking about. See, sometimes God wants to speak out of

  617. order to get you in order. Faith is not organized,

  618. it is unorganized arrangements. God consistently wants us unorganized so

  619. that he can arrange us according to his divine purpose.

  620. He wants to wreck your schedules because as long as

  621. you stay a part of that schedule, as long as

  622. you keep with your routines, as long as you keep

  623. with your schedules, you will not possess the orderly ordained

  624. moment that God wants you to come into. Because when

  625. your life is no longer your own, you're not let

  626. by the time clock of this world. Even though you

  627. are in this cosmos, even though you are around different

  628. cosmoses and different mindsets, you are no longer attributed to

  629. the time in which is presented to you based upon

  630. the world that you're entertaining. Yes, and when I talk

  631. about world, I'm talking about people. Because every person has

  632. their own time period, every person operates in their own clock.

  633. I'm sorry. Even though we're sitting in a room and

  634. it is now nine oh two, even though we are

  635. unified together under time, when we disperse from this place

  636. of unity, everybody's operating in their own time. Again, there's

  637. nothing wrong with going to places oh with people. However,

  638. when you mind the things of the flesh, when you

  639. entertain people, you must realize that you come out of

  640. time of eternity or eternal things things of faith, and

  641. step out of that timing to entertain something or someone

  642. else that is orderly. What do you mean when you

  643. come out of the presence of being in prayer? Yes, yes, yes,

  644. I don't know if you realize it, But you don't

  645. be in chronos time when it's time in the prayer. Honey,

  646. when I was caught up just a few minutes ago,

  647. I didn't care for it was eight o'clock. At nine o'clock,

  648. I knew I was caught up with Jesus. I know

  649. I went somewhere, yes, sir, and Honey, I liked it

  650. and didn't want to come back. Yes, but I was

  651. caught up in prayer so long that by the time

  652. I looked at the clock it was quarter to eight.

  653. We started in that room at six forty five. Yeah, yes,

  654. we did. No longer did I care about chronological time, yes,

  655. m yeah yeah yeah. But see now that I'm in

  656. that realm, now that I'm in that constant place, now

  657. that it's taken over my mind. Now everything that I do,

  658. every person that I entertain, is about purpose. Yes, look,

  659. got me. Let me get something that God. Let me

  660. get something that God gave me today if I can

  661. pull it up. Mm hmm. He said, it only becomes

  662. purposeful when it's eternal. What is arranged is ordained or

  663. what is unarranged is ordained. Well, what do you mean

  664. by that? What you didn't plan outside of orderly arrangement

  665. of scheduling is an ordained moment? Yes, I'm prophesying up

  666. in here, ask God. I want you to listen. There

  667. are some things you did not plan. There are some

  668. things I didn't plan. Like, for instance, he said, start

  669. a cleaning business. That ain't nothing I planned. And I said, God,

  670. you got to be out of your mind. Now I'm

  671. in a situation here that's kind of desperate, and you

  672. want me to plan a cleaning business. I didn't plan that.

  673. This is what faith led me to. And so what

  674. do you think I did. I got the uniforms because

  675. I saw myself in a uniform, and I got my cards,

  676. and but God said, don't open any of it. I'm

  677. gonna tell you when. See now you're not operating on

  678. your telegram. But I said, well, Lord, you had me

  679. to the uniform, you had me get the cards, You

  680. had me do all that. He said, yep, for preparation. Yeah,

  681. mm hmm. Conflict of interest. See, it's not about you.

  682. You gave up your life a long time ago. But see,

  683. sometimes God wants us to be sensitive to his timing because,

  684. as I said before, when you entertain things out of

  685. coming out of that realm, once you entertain an individual,

  686. you are now stepping into a different time period, especially

  687. if they're of the orderly arrangement. Okay, and that's why

  688. some of you listening to me right now, I know

  689. you're gonna relate to me. There are just some people

  690. you just don't want to waste your time with, right, Lord, Lord,

  691. Lord Jesus, Right, because instead of them bringing appreciation to

  692. your spirit or interest to your spirit, they're causing you

  693. to become deficit. Lord. And this is why God said

  694. stay home yet, see you knew the deficit person that

  695. was gonna come and take all your time. He said,

  696. don't you pick up that phone. See God be trying

  697. to tell you, He said, I'm trying to keep you

  698. in this realm. But haven't you keep it entertaining these deficits,

  699. these deficits, these people that got deficits. You keep it

  700. entertaining these things in these programs that are supping from

  701. stopping from your spirit, but not bringing you into a

  702. place of alignment when God's orderly arranged. Watch this eleven

  703. John eleven one. I'm gonna take you there. Mm hmm.

  704. I'm gonna take you to your conflict, your conflict of

  705. the schedule, John, Chapter eleven, Verse one. Now, remember we

  706. talking about not loving the world. That's a conflict of interest.

  707. When you love things more than God, chase after it.

  708. Because when you love something, you're going to commit to it.

  709. And I can tell something that people you're willing to

  710. throw people under the basket because of that female or

  711. that person that you think is in love with you.

  712. Hope somebody's listening. When you love something, you commit to it.

  713. Your soul will commit to it. That's right, whether it

  714. be God, whether it be a persis, and you're not

  715. going to commit to your half heart to it, especially

  716. when you're getting a return. Tell it. Verse one. Now

  717. a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the

  718. town of Mary and her sister Martha. And it was

  719. that Mary which appointed the lord with anointment or ointment

  720. and wipe his feet with her hair, whose brother lathers

  721. was sick. Now watch this. Therefore his sisters said on him, saying, Lord,

  722. behold him, who thou lovest is sick. And when Jesus

  723. heard that, he said, this sickness is not unto death,

  724. but for the glory of God, that the Son of

  725. God might be glorified thereby. Now Jesus loved Martha and

  726. her sister LAZARREV. Now I'm gonna read the next verse.

  727. And because Jesus loved him, because Jesus loved his mother,

  728. because Jesus loved his friend, because Jesus loved the interests

  729. of his heart. Art he ran to Lazareth, he run

  730. the rather room. That's not what I thought. That's what

  731. the scipts said. What some of you are The very

  732. first thing when somebody is sick, the first time that

  733. somebody is getting beaten up by their boyfriend the first

  734. time that somebody says, Mama, I need you to help me.

  735. You're running, come on, talk about it. But Jesus didn't run,

  736. it says he delayed today's now wait just to cot

  737. and pick now, hold on a minute, now, But that's

  738. the person he loved. But see, I musta say something

  739. to some of the people in the room and the

  740. people listening on podcasts. Come on here. Just because you

  741. love sid don't mean I have to commit to it.

  742. Because Jesus was in love with something greater than the

  743. flesh laws in the interests of his heart, he had purpose.

  744. Now he could have got of his orderly arrangement, out

  745. of the father's orderly arrange. God say, pray and don't

  746. go nowhere. Now you could have went somewhere. But I

  747. could have went back to sleep. I have a choice.

  748. But something in your spirit said, uh huh, I gotta

  749. get in there. Here what God is saying, I don't

  750. care if depression is trying to take me. I'm about

  751. to take it up and get a prayer my spirit

  752. because I know and experience what God can do in

  753. the midst of me having a conflict. Let me tell

  754. you something, this conscience, this conflict is only but something

  755. that's trying to pose me from getting to the place

  756. of the or the arrangement in God that I need

  757. to be. And I'm not going to allow anything to

  758. conflict with me being in order with my God. And

  759. that's why I'm tearrying for two days according to God,

  760. because I'm gonna wait till that. But they say death

  761. is impossible to be moved because I don't move in

  762. that time frame. I operate in a different glory. It's

  763. a glory of the spirits. And I don't move on

  764. a time frame which you were. And I don't move

  765. when Mary say come and get your brother. But I

  766. go beyond the time, beyond the past time because faith

  767. does not look at the time frame. Faith looks at

  768. the impossibilities and moves in that time. All right, now,

  769. come on Spotify. Heart radio has been a pleasure. I

  770. had to cut you off right there. Podcasts, I had

  771. to cut you off right there. It was getting a

  772. little hot in the room and I and I felt

  773. like God said it's time to turn it off. Some

  774. of you better listen good Jesus, and you better listen

  775. real good. There are things in this country about to

  776. heat up, and you're gonna need the direction of God

  777. in your finances. You're gonna need direction about where to move,

  778. when to move. Some of you gonna need direction about

  779. where your destiny is. Head and honey, like God said

  780. to be. Some of you are so used to hearing

  781. a voice telling you what you gotta do. Well, the

  782. voice is getting ready to be silent because God wants

  783. you to trust in him. He wants you to be

  784. his head. He wants you to be his buckler. He
