  1. God, I think my pastor and.

  2. You his pastor, are giving me this opportunity.

  3. And what I have to.

  4. Say that the.

  5. Lord gave him goes along with what has already been

  6. said so far.

  7. Thank God, If.

  8. You would turn with me to John three twenty seven

  9. after this, And John answered and said, a man cannot receive,

  10. can receive nothing except to be given him from Heaven.

  11. Now John four ten.

  12. Jesus answered and said, under her, if thou knowest the

  13. gift of God, and who it is who saith under

  14. the give me the dream, thou would have.

  15. Asked for it as the him for it, and he

  16. would have given me living then acts too.

  17. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they

  18. were all in one place, all in one accord, in

  19. one place, and suddenly there came a sound for heaven,

  20. as of a rushing might unit, and it filled the house,

  21. and it built all the house where they were sitting.

  22. And they appeared under them clothing clothing, tongues, like as

  23. a fire.

  24. And it develop on each of the Shawn three six

  25. through seven.

  26. And Peter said, silver and cold have I know, but

  27. such as I have, give I thee in the name

  28. of Jesus, Christ of nas Nazareth, rise up and walk,

  29. and he took him by the right hand and lifting

  30. him up. Immediately his feet and ankle bones received strengths.

  31. As you rock, we read and John about when his

  32. disciples seen Jesus baptizing and teaching.

  33. They were concerned. They said, the one you baptized now

  34. was baptizing he said?

  35. John answered, and said him and then a man can

  36. receive nothing except to be given him from heaven. And

  37. the time of this message is do you really want it?

  38. Jesus received it because he was God's son.

  39. But John received it.

  40. Because, at a young age, before he was bored, he

  41. knew Jesus he really wanted it. John four, he asked

  42. the water from a woman. He wanted the water. She

  43. wanted salvation.

  44. She just didn't know who it was who asked her

  45. for a drink.

  46. But as brother Nathans said in fifteen, she asked for

  47. that water.

  48. She really wanted it. But do you really want it?

  49. Did you come here to watch others that have it,

  50. or did you come here to get it? It? Acts too,

  51. they were there because they wanted it.

  52. They weren't there to talk to the pastor they weren't

  53. there to talk to the disciples about their experience.

  54. They weren't there because they wanted to estave something that

  55. he had promised, because when he left, he didn't gave

  56. them a promise that they would receive something not many days.

  57. Hence our pastor said, my brother would receive something.

  58. It was six days later. I think it was he

  59. received it. He really wanted it.

  60. And that's why hair Chief the February Revival, we were

  61. there because we wanted it.

  62. And Ops three we.

  63. Read about Peter and John going into a temple. They

  64. went into the temple because they wanted to pray. It

  65. was an hour of prayer. They wanted to prayer.

  66. They wanted to connect with Jesus. But there was a

  67. man who wanted some silver gold, all right, But he

  68. he got something he didn't expect. But he wanted.

  69. Are you not think in the corner of his mind

  70. he was a wish one of them disciples will call him.

  71. You know this the hour of prayer, Maybe one of

  72. them disciples are coming.

  73. He didn't know who was coming. He has the walls.

  74. But he got staring better than all. He got something

  75. he didn't expect.

  76. I think there was.

  77. Doubt in his mind when Peter rich Town. Do you

  78. think he had heard of Peter and Charun throughout the city. Hey,

  79. they just call a miracle. You think one of his

  80. kid might have been one of the ones that's healed.

  81. You know, Jesus is gone, but his disciples can do

  82. the same thing.

  83. He gave his disciples what he had, what he has.

  84. I got a.

  85. Thinking about Chaun, how he was in the wilderness. He

  86. wasn't in the beautiful churches. He wasn't going into those

  87. places and teaching. He wasn't going in the cities and preaching.

  88. But yet he still had an audience with the king.

  89. I was saying, how it doesn't matter where you are,

  90. you still have an audience. We're here tonight because we

  91. came because we wanted a praise.

  92. We came because we needed something. Everyone needs more of him,

  93. But do you want more of him? Do you really

  94. really want?

  95. The woman at the well wanted it what she heard

  96. who she was talking to.

  97. She wanted it.

  98. What he had said.

  99. You would have asked for a living water. It didn't

  100. take long for her to realize.

  101. This is the society. This is the one I've heard about.

  102. This is the one that man went through our city

  103. teaching about this is the that's right.

  104. The one who can forgive sins. I was thinking about

  105. that man that was Rick what I think it was,

  106. and his friends tore off the roof.

  107. His friends wanted him to have it, but he also

  108. wanted it. But I think it was him before he

  109. got a healing, his sins were forgiven.

  110. Somebody.

  111. I think it was bad encounter. They said, how can you?

  112. It was in my words, you can't forgive sins. Wouldn't

  113. have been easier to say walk, but Jesus came back

  114. with an answer, something like it would have been easier

  115. to say rise and walk, but he would have just

  116. went back to the sins, forgive the sins, and then

  117. healed it.

  118. I was thinking about all those healings.

  119. Do you think they really expected the healing or do

  120. they think, oh.

  121. Am, I just one of those ones.

  122. They are're gonna give my word.

  123. I was thinking about the little children that the cycles

  124. kept turning away from it, and he Jesus rebuked him

  125. because it was for all ages. When Jesus asked for

  126. a drink, he wanted to drink, but he wanted to

  127. give more than he wanted to take.

  128. Our pastor gives more than he receives.

  129. Jesus wanted to give her something more than he wanted

  130. to receive the water.

  131. They wanted to give her salvation more than he wanted

  132. to take.

  133. The water from the buck.

  134. Then I was really wondering, how many came here just

  135. because it's church.

  136. They don't want to look. How many came just because

  137. they didn't wanna oh that one day? How many come

  138. to churches because they don't wanna be the known. That's

  139. the use to go to church?

  140. Right, as brother na thing was said.

  141. In fifteen, she asked for right and in sixteen Jesus.

  142. Jesus said under her, go call thy husband and come.

  143. You happen?

  144. Bruh, I think it was she had no husband?

  145. Thou would thou happen? Yes, she says she has no husband,

  146. But Jesus said to go.

  147. And get her husband.

  148. She had a husband somewhere.

  149. He might have been the trunk on the street, but

  150. she had a husband somewhere.

  151. Her husband was somewhere. But did he want it? The

  152. entire village wanted.

  153. The entire village knew.

  154. It was him.

  155. By the end of the chapter, they knew it was

  156. the one that could save, the one that could save

  157. the fire. And as we read him, that's true. The

  158. one when he left, he gave us a gift unlike

  159. any other.

  160. He gave us a gift that.

  161. All should receive all he wants, all the receiving in

  162. verse three, second hand, and they're appeared under them clothing tones.

  163. Like as a fire, and it sat upon each other.

  164. It was the manifestation. It was the kid.

  165. But do you really want to get it? Do you

  166. really really want it? In February, the ones who wanted

  167. it God, the ones who were wanted it and right God,

  168. the ones who had bread it through God.

  169. And I was thinking about how they had just said

  170. it respector of persons. It's no respector of person.

  171. We don't know how many not to. You don't know

  172. how many women or men were to be upper root.

  173. But he didn't care if they were Hebrew or not.

  174. I think it was one of the commanders of a

  175. gentile alarmy who was the second in camp second baptism.

  176. You read it him, his entire house.

  177. His servants, his wife, his family, everyone here.

  178. If they have been bought, if they were slaves, or

  179. if they were the master, they were all gonna get.

  180. And if they wanted to the gift that God wants

  181. to give. He's not a respector of person.

  182. Jesus let so that we could give kidding, but here

  183. return again to take those who had it. I was

  184. thinking about the final gifts He's gonna give us.

  185. He's heady.

  186. Imagine the last gift we're gonna give is up there,

  187. and then after thee we're gonna have an eternity with him.

  188. Oh, what a gift.

  189. I was thinking about Christmas today. Man.

  190. One of the songs.

  191. Listen said, song about it was more of a he said,

  192. like a just Christmas song.

  193. It was more Jesus wrong, He's got just Christmas right.

  194. And it said Christmas or something about Christmas is.

  195. A time that we get gifts, but one day we're

  196. gonna get the best gift. I was thinking about that

  197. best gift, the final gift heaven right, and I thought, Old,

  198. what a great gift. Then the man who was then

  199. was lame from his mother's woman. They laid him at

  200. the gate every day. Do you think how many times

  201. did somebody one of them disciples just pass him out?

  202. You don't know. He was there everything. I don't I

  203. didn't find how old he was, right, but it was

  204. probably there for a forever.

  205. Word.

  206. Every day at the Arab prayer, hundreds probably walked on light.

  207. He mighta got a little money, but he never got

  208. that great kid. But one day Peter said, silver and

  209. gold have I good? Instead of passing you by because.

  210. I have no gold or so off, I'm gonna reach

  211. out my hand.

  212. Just take the hand.

  213. And when he took the hand, and he took him

  214. by the right.

  215. Kid and lifting him up, and immediately his feet and

  216. ankle bots received their strength.

  217. He was crippled until the.

  218. Day someone decided, hey, you, this man's always asking, why

  219. don't we give.

  220. Him something worth more than money?

  221. You gotta buy a healing My god, I don't remember his.

  222. Day, but that one got tried to buy the holes.

  223. How much do I to give them for this kid?

  224. Silver and gold have I They weren't very well off.

  225. They weren't staying in these beautiful motels and we're traveling

  226. in there nowadays Cadillac limousines.

  227. They were probably walking everywhere they went, right, he didn't

  228. have much money.

  229. What they did they used for food. But one day

  230. they could give a man a gift unlike a.

  231. Man stressed your hands forward Heaven. Thank God for the world,

  232. and even think for Jesus the best gift.

  233. Amen, And truly a man who's already been here making

  234. himself known and making himself avail.

  235. Little Amen, Brother Jonathan come on and didn't share the word.

  236. With us tonight, Okay, right, I wanna say, I'm thankful

  237. for everything that God's done in this church service tonight,

  238. the touch that I received, and I know the way

  239. the direction the service has been going. God's God's definitely

  240. here to help somebody and restore somebody. Even if your

  241. heart's going astray, I know you can receive or reviving

  242. or renewing tonight. And I appreciate what brother Josh said.

  243. I'm thankful for the gift that he gave me. Uh,

  244. It's a gift like no other. And I wanna say

  245. I'm thankful for our pastor in here tonight, the opportunity

  246. our and our youth pastor, Brother Nathaniel.

  247. I love him both dearly.

  248. I highly respect both of them, and I really feel

  249. that God's gonna help us here tonight.

  250. We'll be looking and acts. Chapter number five just right

  251. after what.

  252. Brother Josh read.

  253. All right, it says in the first verse, but a

  254. certain man named Ananias.

  255. With his wife Saphar.

  256. With Saphari his wife sort of possession and kept that

  257. part of the prost. His wife also being privy to it,

  258. and brought up a certain part and laid out the

  259. apostle's feet. But Peter said Antonius, why I said to

  260. feel down heart, to lie to the holy ghost, and

  261. to keep them, and to keep back part of the

  262. prices of the land. Whiles it remained, was it naught

  263. done own? And after it, after it was soul? Was

  264. it naught in thine own power? Why hast thou conceived

  265. this thing in thine heart? Thou hast not lied unto men,

  266. but unto God. Backing up to the middle part of

  267. that verse, it says, why hast thou conceived this thing

  268. in thine heart? Thou hast not lied unto men, but

  269. unto God. Looking over in Jeremiah chapter seventeen, verse nine,

  270. it says, the heart is deceitful above all things, and

  271. desperately wicked.

  272. Who can know it?

  273. Let's pray here.

  274. Tonight, God, God, God, God, God.

  275. Lord.

  276. I think for God, for just a little bit of

  277. time tonight, I want to preach a message the Lord

  278. laid on my heart, and he's been dealing with me,

  279. and now I know that he's pulling in this in

  280. this direction that I don't want to preach on keeping

  281. some but losing it all. In this story of Antonys

  282. and so far as his wife, it occurred us shortly

  283. after the.

  284. Day of Pentecost, which we can find in Acts chapter

  285. two is Brother josh as our you read about.

  286. This was truly a life changing experience for many people

  287. that day and would continue to change the lives of

  288. people for.

  289. A great period of time.

  290. They would receive the effect the sanctification, the sweet Holy

  291. Ghost baptism effects for.

  292. Many, for me and to many years, and I believe it.

  293. Even gave the disciples of Jesus an experience that gave

  294. them more Holy Ghost power and boldness to go out

  295. and preach, rebuke, exord do exactly what God bid than

  296. to do to give direction to the churches, the New

  297. Testament churches. And we can find here in the fourth

  298. chapter that Peter and John were arrested for preaching and

  299. teaching unto the crowd.

  300. They were arrested for doing what God told them to do.

  301. And despite being arrested by the priests and the saddesties.

  302. Many people believed what the disciples were preaching, but the

  303. priests and Saddustes walked them up.

  304. But it still had a great effect on many people.

  305. There.

  306. They're in the fourth chapter, and.

  307. As Peter and John were about to be released out

  308. of the pres they were commanded not to speak or

  309. teach in.

  310. The name of Jesus.

  311. But this is what the Lord started dealing with you

  312. right here, leading building this foundation. In the fourth chapter,

  313. verse twenty says, for we cannot but speak the things

  314. we have seen and heard. They knew what they have seen.

  315. They knew what they had heard although they had been

  316. in prison. They knew that they're the God that brought

  317. them out. They knew that there was a God.

  318. There was the God.

  319. That they had seen the miracles the Upper Room, experience

  320. that they at Pentecosts. They knew the one hundred and

  321. twenty that were filled they have seen that they had

  322. experienced that.

  323. And reading several verses down here at.

  324. The twenty third verse in the fourth chapter, this is

  325. leading up to the distribution of the possessions. Right here

  326. it said in the twenty third verse, and being let go.

  327. This is Paul in size. They were just released, it says,

  328. And being let go, they went to their own company

  329. and reported all that the chief priests and elders had

  330. said unto them. And when they heard. When they heard that,

  331. they lifted up their voice to God with when accord,

  332. and said, Lord, Thou art God, which hast paid heaven

  333. and earth and the sea, and all that is and

  334. all that in them is, who by the mouth of

  335. thy servant David has said, why did the heathen rage

  336. and the people imagine vain things? The kings of the

  337. earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against

  338. the Lord and against his Christ, for of a truth,

  339. against thy Holy Child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed both

  340. herod and walked his violet. With the gentiles and the

  341. people of Israel were gathered together for to.

  342. Do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel.

  343. Intermined before to be done.

  344. And now Lord, behold their threatenings, and grant.

  345. Unto thy servants, that with all.

  346. Boldness they may speak the word by stretching forth thy

  347. hand to you, and that signs and the wonders may

  348. be done by the name of the Holy Child Jesus.

  349. I like this verse right here that right shortly after this,

  350. we'll see how see how the Lord started working, And

  351. it says, and when and when they had prayed, a man,

  352. hasn't the Lord been dealing with a lot of people

  353. to seek sink his face and to pray, he said,

  354. And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where

  355. they were assembled together, and they were all felled.

  356. With the holy ghost, and they spake the word.

  357. Of God with boldness.

  358. And right here's where the we're leading into, where the

  359. distribution of the possessions were distributed out, and says, and

  360. the multitude of them that believed were of one heart

  361. and of one soul. Neither said any of them that

  362. all of the things which he possessed was his own power.

  363. But they had all things common, and with great power

  364. gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus,

  365. and great gave.

  366. Great grace was upon them all.

  367. Neither was there any among them that lacked, For as

  368. many were possessors of lands or houses, sold them.

  369. And brought the process of the things.

  370. That were sold, and laid them down at the apostle's feet,

  371. and distribution was made unto every man according I see

  372. had need and you can as we read it up there,

  373. meaning there's many people up there. They were in that place,

  374. and when the Holy Ghost came down, after praying and

  375. seeking God, they were filled with the Holy Ghost. And

  376. this is how the Holy Ghost led them, I believe,

  377. to see if they were going to be obedient or not.

  378. And that's where we're gonna get into right here in

  379. a minute. But as we see right here, many of

  380. those people weren't great possessions.

  381. I believe, wealthy men and wealthy women, and.

  382. They had land and houses, and I believe God had

  383. richly blessed them, if you would, for that day, and

  384. right here it seemed.

  385. Like everything was going. Everybody was obeying God.

  386. Everybody who would was selling their possessions and bringing them

  387. and laying them.

  388. At the apostles feet.

  389. But there you have Antonius and Sapphire, a husband and

  390. wife who at one point, no doubt, I believe they

  391. loved God and had a relationship with God that though

  392. men could break.

  393. I believe that one point in time, and I read.

  394. One spot when I was studying Antonius was one of

  395. the men that got with.

  396. The Holy Ghost at that point in time. But at

  397. verse three right here and verse three right here.

  398. In the fifth chapter, it says, but Peter said Antonius,

  399. why Satan feel thy heart to lie to the Holy

  400. Ghost and to keep back part of the price of

  401. the land, No doubt it was because they were lacking

  402. in their prayer life. They had quit fasting, No doubt,

  403. they had quit seeking God, which brought them to the

  404. place of lying.

  405. To the Holy Ghost.

  406. It's one thing when.

  407. You lie to your when you lie to your wife,

  408. your brother and sister.

  409. That's bad. But okay yourself and have the hell when

  410. you lie to the Holy Ghost. Amen.

  411. I believe it all.

  412. I mean actions speak louder than words. If you write

  413. the altra time and time again, your action is speaking.

  414. Whether if you're willing to be obedient to God or

  415. whether you're not willing to.

  416. Be obedient to God.

  417. Amen.

  418. If they would have, if they would have been where

  419. they needed to be with God, they wouldn't have found

  420. themselves committing this horrible sin. If they would have been

  421. prayed of, if they would have been fasted up, if

  422. they would have had all heart willing to obey like

  423. no doubt, prior to what had happened, they were no

  424. doubt in the multitude that had received the Holy Ghost,

  425. that was doing flourishing in Christ, but they had tame

  426. to a spot in their life where they had let

  427. the devil distract them.

  428. Hey, the devil.

  429. The devil can tempt you, but it can't force you

  430. to disobey God.

  431. It's within the human flesh.

  432. Never we fall, whenever we get to the place where

  433. we turn our back on God and taught us.

  434. It's not our pastor's fall.

  435. It's not the youth pastors fall their man.

  436. It's been called of us, it's been called them good

  437. turned our back, and we're keeping something inside of us

  438. Tonight it's.

  439. We all the keeping something, but we're about to lose

  440. it all.

  441. Amen.

  442. I don't want to get ahead of myself here, but

  443. I thank God for everything that he's.

  444. Done here tonight.

  445. Praise God. This is the same way with so many

  446. people today. They try to keep back parts of their sins.

  447. Amen.

  448. They they say they've been forgiven, but really, deep down inside,

  449. it's because what they're keeping back. They're trying to keep

  450. something back, because they're truly not satisfied.

  451. Amen, because they've not experienced the real thing.

  452. Amen.

  453. They're keeping something back because they want to go back

  454. to because Amen, they know there's pleasure in sins and

  455. for a season, but when the season's over, they're going

  456. to find theirself in the same old spot.

  492. they would have both admitted that they were caught in

  493. a spot where they never would have dreamed of being

  494. in right. But the reason why they, like I've been saying,

  495. the reason why they were in that spot, is because

  496. they wasn't in tune with God.

  497. They wouldn't pray like they needed to be. Amen.

  541. you're not about to lose your life.

  542. And the spirits around and Amen, the way our pastor's

  548. strive for so long?

  549. Amen.

  560. down and gave up the ghost, and great fear came

  561. on them all that heard these things, it says right.

  562. I believe it was wrapped in and there when Peter

  563. confront him, that's when he fell down.

  564. To the ground when he died.

  565. I don't think he had time to repent.

  570. And it was his own fault that he and that

  572. that he was that would call him to disobey.

  573. And he said and the young men arose, wound him

  574. up and carried him out and buried him on it.

  575. And it was about the space of three hours after

  576. when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in

  577. and Peter answered it under her, tell me whether he

  578. sold the land for so much? And she said, gay

  579. for so much? Then Peter said, unto her, and how

  580. was it that you have agreed together to tempt the

  581. spirit of the Lord?

  582. Amen?

  583. You're you're playing on dangerous grounds. Whenever you start tempting God.

  584. When when God draws you and you come and pray,

  585. but it's not a sincere prayer. You're just tempting the

  586. Holy coast. You're tempting, and.

  587. One day he's gonna pull back the hand.

  601. and shall carry thee out.

  602. Then fell, Then fell she down.

  603. Straightway at his feet, and uned up the ghost. And

  604. the young men came in and found her dead, and

  605. carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. And great

  606. fear came upon all the church, and upon all upon

  607. as many as heard these things. Rereading that verse, and

  608. says that great fear came upon all the church, and

  609. upon as many has heard these things. That means why

  610. there's a multitude the whole church and heart and seen

  611. what it just happened.
