Our First Revival at the Kentucky Home Base | In the Water Podcast

[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back to In the Waterpodcast.

[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's been quite a while since Elwood and I've got to sit down and do a podcast But we are so excited today to be talking to you about Kentokey And all that has transpired here.

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling you what Kentucky is you've had this On your mind for some time yes for some time and then the

[SPEAKER_01]: to watch it unfold.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's just been an amazing trip from the first time that I went out there.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And I said, hey, what Paul, you think?

[SPEAKER_01]: I said it has potential.

[SPEAKER_01]: And setting up our now where we're getting under the pressure, whatever.

[SPEAKER_01]: And now, you know, you see,

[SPEAKER_01]: things that has taken place, the work that has been done there, and I'll tell you what, it's just been absolutely amazing what God is transforming that property into, and so it's going to be exciting to see what the finished and touches is going to be.

[SPEAKER_00]: I know it.

[SPEAKER_01]: And however long it is down the road.

[SPEAKER_01]: and have many people come through there, it's going to be exciting.

[SPEAKER_00]: It is.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's so wild to see things come to fruition because, you know, you have dreams and you have visions and God shows you how things are going to go, but then like to watch it unfold, it's just a such a privilege, you know, it's such a privilege to see and, you know, we we had our first revival there and I don't cry the entire time.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm still about to cry because

[SPEAKER_00]: And so emotional because this is our home, you know, and and Elwood has passed her to here for so long in this county, like this is your home town.

[SPEAKER_00]: And the fact that like revival is risen up here, it's kind of like you have plowed the grounds, you know, for 27 years you plowed the ground of preaching and just pouring into

[SPEAKER_00]: to see this and 1,700 people come through those gates and it's like here, you know, in Estle County, like the small little

[SPEAKER_00]: He will be a lead town, and we had 1,700 people come through those gates.

[SPEAKER_00]: And that's just because we just had one.

[SPEAKER_00]: We've only had one revival so far.

[SPEAKER_00]: But we're coming upon our second one's coming up.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I just, I'm with you.

[SPEAKER_00]: I can't wait to see what God's gonna do.

[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't telling you what.

[SPEAKER_01]: When people show up from Russia, India.

[SPEAKER_01]: uh... no way yes and uh... just all over the world uh... you know they asked a question in the bible somebody did to can anything good come out Nazareth and look what came out of nagris did you think is there anything good that we come out as to county i have thought about that

[SPEAKER_01]: And yes, it can, yes, it can, and we're just seeing a move of God upon people's lives all over the world, not only in Asso County, I met a girl.

[SPEAKER_01]: at Saverlight and I can't remember her name and she come running up to me and I heard during I said how you do it because she told me she'd come out she said I am great man body and soul.

[SPEAKER_01]: She said it was awesome.

[SPEAKER_00]: Oh amazing.

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to tell you what it.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's awesome what God is doing.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_01]: And we just as I'm just long for the ride.

[SPEAKER_00]: this same.

[SPEAKER_00]: Do you know the ripple effects of what we're seeing too?

[SPEAKER_00]: Like I think we're getting more testimonies now, which is one of my favorite parts is to just see the people's lives transformed and you know just like when Jesus had cast the demon out of the man in the tombs and

[SPEAKER_00]: when he did with Legion I mean he cast a Legion out and this man who was once like just in torment and agony is delivered and he's in his right mind and he's sitting at the feet of Jesus and he wants to go follow him but Jesus says you go back to your town and you go tell them of what has happened here what I have done.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's what we're seeing now is we're seeing so many people telling of what Jesus has done.

[SPEAKER_00]: So many people have been set free and delivered and healed and just miracles that Jesus is pouring out on them.

[SPEAKER_00]: And now they're coming back and they're like, you know, telling us or, you know, in all these videos and comments and it's so cool to see.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I know it's just the beginning of the property of, you know, we just opened the property.

[SPEAKER_00]: and now people get to come and fellowship and worship with a worship team and here you preach and, you know, revival has truly transformed from

[SPEAKER_00]: I guess what people thought we were.

[SPEAKER_00]: They thought we were a baptism ministry, you know?

[SPEAKER_00]: And it was always a thing of like, all they're the baptism ministry.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, no, we're the full great commission.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like we do everything that the Bible has commanded us to do, that Jesus Christ commanded us to do.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it's preaching, it's teaching, it's feeding people.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's, and not just physically.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like we obviously have free food on the grounds and all the things we have free storehouse now where we literally have,

[SPEAKER_00]: like my canned goods and all my garden veggies and clothes and and it's all free like it's it's you know feeding the people in their physical but then feeding their spiritual and you know preaching worship all the things in one like it's all in the same place and I'm just so fired up about it.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm

[SPEAKER_00]: I could just stay there, you know, like in so many people would say that as they were leaving they're like, we don't want to leave.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_00]: I want to just stay here like these are holy grounds and we want to stay and I'm like me too.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_00]: Cause it's just something special.

[SPEAKER_01]: There was some people at pool up on us, they said we are the Macley.

[SPEAKER_01]: Just as soon as we pulled on this ground we could build the presence of the Holy Spirit and we just started crying And before they ever got to car park.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, heard that a lot.

[SPEAKER_01]: You know, Brother Jackie.

[SPEAKER_01]: He came over from Winchester And he said all his people that came

[SPEAKER_01]: He said, when they went back to church and they all had a testimony.

[SPEAKER_01]: What God had done for him and done to him, you know, and how they had felt presence of Lord, and he said, I'm going to try get my whole church and come back.

[SPEAKER_01]: and but it's it's just amazing what God is it's doing yeah and it's Susie obedience of his people yeah that it happens yeah and so I am so much I'd love to see the whole Estle County turnout yes yes you know like Kayla said I'm pretty sure for twenty seven years sometimes in the church the numbers got down I mean they got down low you talk about five or six seven people

[SPEAKER_01]: And then they'd go up, it's up and down, but still we stayed right there, but it would please me no more to see Irvin just absolutely bombard the coming sea, if not to be baptized or anything, just come and see what God is doing in people's lives.

[SPEAKER_01]: And he's made a way for the properties to be purchased.

[SPEAKER_01]: He's made a way to get it where it needs to be as of right now.

[SPEAKER_01]: I know there'll be plenty more work to go.

[SPEAKER_01]: But as of right now, we're able to do what he's called listed this time.

[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_01]: And that's the baptized people that...

[SPEAKER_01]: that haven't been baptized or people get saved, that haven't been saved or people that feels like they've just been neglected all their life or whatever may be the case and the people that's getting their needs met.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, they are.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, they are.

[SPEAKER_00]: It is so cool to see.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just, I'm in awe.

[SPEAKER_00]: of what God is doing and, you know, you touched up just now on the church, how you're your church, your pastor buddies.

[SPEAKER_00]: I've always called your friends your pastor buddies.

[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why, but you had several pastor buddies come, you had Dan come and you had Jacky and Jason.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and it's really cool to see, you know, these pastors show up and and speaking of pastors, you know, the last like on Sunday, it was, I don't know, Sunday evening-ish.

[SPEAKER_00]: We had a whole church

[SPEAKER_00]: and they come down the hill and I remember one of our security, he's just like we have a whole church just pulled up and I'm like yeah bring them on because it's just so exciting to like to see this kind of move and so I ended up baptizing the pastor and his wife and all their family and then all their friends and then their church and just

[SPEAKER_00]: To watch the fire like just you could literally see you know, it's people people all the time They'll be like well, why would a pastor come get baptized again?

[SPEAKER_00]: Well, why would Jesus go to John the Baptist like this?

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, and it's not I'm not saying for me People coming for me specifically, but just when people come to get you know a renewal or refreshing of a fresh fire Then you're able to see like what's going on in their lives.

[SPEAKER_00]: They need hands laid on them too They need they need they need prayer too, and I think that's such a

[SPEAKER_00]: you know a worldly thing that people see and they're just like, oh well they're a pastor they don't need a help yes they do like they're human too and so anyways just being able to see this pastor and you know he was standing there and I could just see you know the spiritual warfare of just weiriness and and just

[SPEAKER_00]: and I had another lady actually and she's a pastor too and she came as well and his wife did as well but there was another pastor lady and hers that was her biggest desire is she just she looked into my eyes and she said Kayla how do you keep doing this I'm so tired she's like I've been doing ministry for two years and I'm so tired

[SPEAKER_00]: And I just thought, man, like, and I just poured into the bill, you know, and just laid hands and prayed and and you could see it.

[SPEAKER_00]: You could see the infilling of the Holy Spirit.

[SPEAKER_00]: You could see and this is so biblical.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's all throughout the Bible.

[SPEAKER_00]: You see several times where the Spirit descends and fills the room.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it's so beautiful to watch the suppressionointing, the fresh fire, and then you know what they're going to go do with it.

[SPEAKER_00]: you know that they're going to go and whatever complacent stagnant place they were in they're out of now they're about to go and work for Christ like you never before and just to watch that is just so like I keep saying a privilege absolutely absolutely you know since it's here in Escal County in my hometown yeah I saw a kept my motions in check

[SPEAKER_01]: on Saturday, but what an honor it was, you know, and I still remember that day when we stood over next or where we preached out and everything and you said, I wouldn't say, what do you think?

[SPEAKER_01]: And I said, it had potential.

[SPEAKER_01]: And I could see that day that the people come walking down over the hill.

[SPEAKER_01]: And then that morning, when it was opened up,

[SPEAKER_01]: There it was.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, there they come.

[SPEAKER_01]: Here they come

[SPEAKER_01]: And they came walking.

[SPEAKER_01]: They was on side beside.

[SPEAKER_01]: They was on golf cart.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And it was a constant flow.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_01]: That they are people coming down.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: Getting baptized and maybe just sitting around.

[SPEAKER_01]: Mm-hmm.

[SPEAKER_01]: All over the ground.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they were everywhere.

[SPEAKER_01]: To take it in.

[SPEAKER_01]: I talked to some folks over on the other side over there.

[SPEAKER_01]: They was from Canada.

[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.

[SPEAKER_01]: And they said this is absolutely amazing.

[SPEAKER_01]: And they sat there about all day watching what was taking place.

[SPEAKER_01]: And it was just, it just stunned them.

[SPEAKER_01]: But that's what God does.

[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, when God has got people and vessels that he can use, he can just stun the world.

[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_01]: And so, but it was a gorgeous, gorgeous sight.

[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, we're going to do it again in a couple of weeks, whatever it may be the case.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And so we're looking for another 17 if not 3,000 to come.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.

[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't make any difference.

[SPEAKER_01]: They're flying in all over the world.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And I'll tell you what, what an honor and what a privilege it is.

[SPEAKER_01]: Just to be a little pity part.

[SPEAKER_01]: to see this what God is doing in our lives as well.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's how I feel.

[SPEAKER_00]: Every time I see something like this, I'm like, thank you, Jesus, that we get to be a part of it.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, thank you, that we get to see this kind of move, you know, that people for generations before us have prayed to see.

[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, it's just it's so beautiful.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's so beautiful to see what God is doing and to hear the testimonies.

[SPEAKER_00]: And you just spoke of someone from Canada and there was another lady there from Canada,

[SPEAKER_00]: we always have quite a bit from Canada and this lady came all the way from Canada just to tell her testimony and she set up on that bank most of the day and I found her testimony you know someone had got it on a GoPro and they got that testimony and I found it and I was just weeping because she came to a pop-up and do you remember like

[SPEAKER_00]: He sent people to Canada, you know, in Ohio.

[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, well, here we go and I had planned all that, you know, sent them over and this lady had came from there and she said, like, you know, so many times I've heard this too of just, you know, if we wouldn't have come kind of thing, but she said, I had been praying for you to come to Canada and when I saw that you were coming for a pop-up,

[SPEAKER_00]: I knew I couldn't miss it, and she was healed of she had bone problems that were just severe.

[SPEAKER_00]: It was bad, and she said that she has like so much of her help has improved.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like she was just naming off all the things that she has visibly noticed such a massive change in.

[SPEAKER_00]: And she said, I just had to come here because this was your opening.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like this was the first time that this land and properties open.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I just wanted to come and, you know, say, thank you.

[SPEAKER_00]: They, I know it's never me.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm just, I'm thinking the Lord for their healing.

[SPEAKER_00]: And when she's saying those things on the GoPro, she just like, you know, thank y'all for being obedient.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, thank you for coming to Canada.

[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you for,

[SPEAKER_00]: But the fact that she would come from Canada now, like she prayed so long for us to get to her.

[SPEAKER_00]: And now here she is coming to us just to say thank you.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it just, you know, air monomy of the story of the lepers.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Jesus healed 10 lepers.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, He did.

[SPEAKER_00]: And only one came back and thanked him.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I just, I was like, wow, like, this is just a huge testimony unto the Lord for what He has done in her life.

[SPEAKER_00]: And the fact that she would come all the way there to tell it was just so beautiful.

[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_01]: It was a three-old beer brand there for the gentleman that made the cross.

[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yes.

[SPEAKER_01]: A beautiful, beautiful cross and it was huge.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_01]: That they had to take a...

[SPEAKER_01]: It's not a big deal.

[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's what it is.

[SPEAKER_00]: Is it?

[SPEAKER_01]: I think so.

[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

[SPEAKER_01]: And then to get it set.

[SPEAKER_01]: And we've seen pictures for people has taken pictures of themselves there at the cross.

[SPEAKER_01]: What a beautiful, beautiful side it is when slid up of a night.

[SPEAKER_01]: You know, there's nobody can miss it No, no matter which way you come in and you cannot miss it.

[SPEAKER_01]: And then they see the folks that came down from more head or someplace The first pop-up we had there and

[SPEAKER_01]: all those folks when they left there before I tell you what.

[SPEAKER_01]: They was happier in the clamber tennis shoes when they left there.

[SPEAKER_01]: They were a lot of praise in the Lord and they were just special people and had a whole bus load come around to there.

[SPEAKER_01]: But then you see for the bulldozers has flattened off the land.

[SPEAKER_01]: the gravel being brought in.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a slow process of getting everything set and it's going to be, it's going to be a place that a lot of lives can be touched.

[SPEAKER_01]: A lot of lives can be moved and I'm just honored to be a spec.

[SPEAKER_01]: Me too.

[SPEAKER_01]: Me too.

[SPEAKER_00]: I am too.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know when we spoke of how we first walked on the land and I think it's so cool how God will use the foolish things to confound the wise with so many different ways and we stepped on the land and it's his old cattle farm.

[SPEAKER_00]: Run down kind of forgotten the

[SPEAKER_00]: And you don't for you and I just be standing there and Walt and the kids and looking around going This has so much potential And you know most people would be like all they would see is the cow patties You know, but we're just like wow, like God has prepared this place Because we felt the spirit of the Lord upon that and that was enough Like it was just like, okay, God if you need this for us and this is what we need to do We'll then hear Emma send me

[SPEAKER_00]: and he did and, you know, when we purchased the property and then from the Cedar Post and like so many little stories and I think it's just, there's so much that you could just, it's hard to even talk about it all because you just want to wrap it into one because there's just so much that God has done to show us of this place.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I have prepared this place and

[SPEAKER_00]: Man, it's just so cool from the cross, to the rebuilding of the pond, to the barns, and the theater post, and the pavilion, and just so many really cool stories, and you know, I think Walt's actually going to work on a documentary, and I'm so excited for it, because it will be the type of film that would go behind the scenes and show these kind of things.

[SPEAKER_00]: and I think it needs to be done like it would be so cool you know Ronnie over across the street that his son that built the cross like it would be cool to interview them and like really see their hearts behind this transformation too because you know out of nowhere this man ain't never built a cross okay never never built a cross for nobody and out of nowhere God put it on his heart and then he calls Walt and says God put it on my heart and

[SPEAKER_00]: like that's and he just and he did and he constructed this giant I don't know 25 foot cross and it just everything and I had a vision of it you know months before it and I didn't know when that would transpire and I didn't know if it would be something that I have to buy or whatever maybe and here it is it just shows up and it's the neighbor across the street and it's just

[SPEAKER_00]: So many little cool stories that came about but it can only be God, like God and the way he moves and the way that he has everything so intricate, detailed and just designed and then it just comes together and it's just such a such a blessing.

[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_01]: He's done a beautiful job on that too, and then all the volunteers that just come in, they just wanted to do something.

[SPEAKER_01]: And they knew what it was purchased for, they knew what it was bought for, and they knew what was going to happen there.

[SPEAKER_01]: And they just wanted to come in and be a part of it to get it ready.

[SPEAKER_01]: And for the marvelous job, and you

[SPEAKER_01]: sort of done their thing and got it done and you know as I look at that heel there and my mom wants to go back to where Jesus got in a boat and talked the people as they surrounded that there and it's just amazing it's just amazing everything is laid out just right and I'm telling you

[SPEAKER_01]: from the preaching that they can hear the cross upon upon the heel of whatever may be the case or down in the holler.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right, that's right, that's right, they're going to get the gospel.

[SPEAKER_00]: Preaching to the donkeys and cattle on the heel, preaching everything.

[SPEAKER_01]: But it is just absolutely, it's an absolute,

[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if I got words for it.

[SPEAKER_00]: I feel the same way.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's just something that God is going to use greatly.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: I believe not only for Estle County, you've got Madison, you've got Fayette, you've got you've got Tork County and all the counties around here, you know.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And it's just going to be a place of beacon.

[SPEAKER_01]: sort of a light set up on a hill that cannot be here.

[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, come on.

[SPEAKER_01]: That crawls, you can't hide it.

[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_01]: This shines like the noon day sun at night time.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it does.

[SPEAKER_01]: But it is just a beautiful, beautiful place to take care of what God needs to take and cure of.

[SPEAKER_01]: here in this community not only in this county but those are around and so we'll just hang on for the ride that's right and see where he takes his snacks you know but there's a lot of work to do it yet to be done a lot of things that needs to happen

[SPEAKER_01]: And we'll just take one step at a time by the leading of the Lord and it'll get done.

[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_00]: Look at how much has happened so fast, you know, like when we stepped foot on the property and it was like it had been locked before we got there.

[SPEAKER_00]: So like God had already prepared that part so that would have been hard.

[SPEAKER_00]: But he had that prepared, and then the rest of it was just, I mean, he would give us the vision, he would give us the ideas, and we would go, you know, like whatever it needed to happen.

[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, the parking, and I even go back to the map.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I have on X, because the hunting app, you know, and you can, like, circle and draw stuff on it.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I go back to the on X map, and when before we even got the property, I had pulled it up, and I had circled where the parking would be.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, they, they was, it was a mountain, you know?

[SPEAKER_00]: but I had circled the two spots and I'm like parking here, parking here, and then to watch thoseers go in and flatten those heels and then to see it happen and then you're like, wow, like that's, that's just so incredible.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, God already had that plan, you know, we just had to put it in the motion and you know, it's, it's just,

[SPEAKER_00]: Man, it's like we are at a loss for words because it's all just such such power of God into every intricate detail of just how he has designed this to go and how he has fulfilled, you know, every single thing that needs to happen and like he said, there's lots of work to do.

[SPEAKER_00]: We have already known that, you know, this one, this, this passing we did, we, we used everything to the max potential, you know, like we maxed out everything we could have as far as parking, you know, that was, I don't know when it was maybe 10 or 11 o'clock, you know, I had the

[SPEAKER_00]: One of our revival supervisors came down and he's just like Kayla or out of parking I was like well, that's a good problem.

[SPEAKER_00]: I haven't even he just like you got a plan And here I am rejoicing But no, they had a plan and it worked out flawlessly like it with people would leave and then they would put people in those spots and But I'm like who would have thought that four acres of parking would have got filled up that fast and then

[SPEAKER_00]: then the backup parking lots and so now, you know, we're to the drawing board again of like, okay, Lord, we're the next park in need to be, and he'll, you know, he'll do it.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's exactly what he did with this and I think that that's a cool part of understanding.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, how God can move is that you expand to where, you know, he, he maxed out the potential with what we had.

[SPEAKER_00]: And now it's like, okay, as we expand, he'll send more people.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like he's such a good God in loving that he, he's never bombarded us to the point where we couldn't handle it.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like even even in Texas when we had 7,000 people.

[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's still got handled.

[SPEAKER_00]: And now I see, um,

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I see this and I'm like, all right, God's going to move and he's going to make it happen to where, you know, when it's time for the 5,000 to show up or 7,000 again, then we'll have the parking.

[SPEAKER_00]: So it's, you know, the labor, the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are a few.

[SPEAKER_00]: And that's with everything.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's not just, I mean, it's even in the physical where you're laboring, you know, there's so much labor to be done.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so many people don't want to do the labor, but it's necessary.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's necessary to be out here working.

[SPEAKER_00]: and getting things done and you know working for the cause of Christ and then look at it.

[SPEAKER_00]: Then look at the harvest, you know, so you got to sow the seeds and plant them to have harvest.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, you all had the guys Jerry, I think one of them was his name.

[SPEAKER_01]: And then he knew that he was going to be a bigger bulldozer.

[SPEAKER_01]: And he mentioned Greg Wright, and so Greg brought his bulldozer out and flattened those ground off.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's amazing how somebody know this person, and they know this person, and they know God just had everything in line, and Greg came out Sunday, and he was standing down and he said, you all are going to need a bigger pond.

[SPEAKER_00]: And we know, that is all on our radar.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And now, good news.

[SPEAKER_01]: I just want to thank all those guys so much for what they have put into it.

[SPEAKER_01]: Because I really think they had a good heart to do what they have done.

[SPEAKER_01]: and within the spirit that they've done it in to see this succeed.

[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I really believe they want to see it succeed because this is their home town as well.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm sure they won't see their home town just prosper and grow and just absolutely blossom.

[SPEAKER_01]: But it's amazing how God will help people.

[SPEAKER_01]: When you start something like this, you don't know exactly how you're going to get it done, who to call or whatsoever, and then this one knows this one, that one knows that one, and then it's just a chain reaction down the line.

[SPEAKER_01]: People wanting to help, the Zyring to help.

[SPEAKER_01]: and to want it to come about where it will be successful on all corners, you know, and that's amazing me how God does that, but he's got a plan.

[SPEAKER_00]: He does.

[SPEAKER_01]: He has a plan and if we'll keep our little bit of hand in his great big hand, we'll see that plan for field.

[SPEAKER_01]: I really believe that.

[SPEAKER_00]: I believe it, dude.

[SPEAKER_01]: But it's just amazing what God is doing here in Astro County.

[SPEAKER_01]: And uh, of all counties.

[SPEAKER_00]: And know it.

[SPEAKER_01]: As I said before, it goes, can anything good come out in the address they said, can anything good come out as to county.

[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a lot of good that can come out of as to county.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_01]: And uh, so we're just a real just a button or seek bail.

[SPEAKER_01]: and get locked in and go with it.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_00]: And you know what a good problem to have of needing a bigger pond and the things that you know, and I knew it too, like even when we built this pond as soon as we built that I said.

[SPEAKER_01]: the same thing enough.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I was so sad because it's it's it's it's it's bitter sweet almost you know when you build things and you have it and you're just like this is temporary because we're gonna need bigger it's a good problem to have but it's still it's like alrighty well when are we gonna need to build the lake because this bond is it's holding what it can right now.

[SPEAKER_00]: we are going to have more, and you know, as God sends more, it's like I said, like the expansion happens, you know, you have to have room too.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so, you know, he knows what he's doing.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so, you know, when it comes to having more parking and having the lake and all the things

[SPEAKER_00]: like it's gonna come and you know that's one thing that I never stress about is you know God's plans and how he's gotten us this far is like okay you you just have such total trust in his plans that it's just you rest in them you know and there's times where obviously my life can get a little hectic like I get very busy and

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I've got irons and like a million irons in the fire and it's a good thing though and I don't stress because I'm like the Lord has this like he's already got the plans I'm just I'm following them, you know, just whatever he has planned out and he's just so gracious not to give me too much to chew you know like and sometimes I feel that way sometimes I'm like Lord this is a lot and then I'm like but actually he's past me very gracefully yeah

[SPEAKER_00]: Because, you know, he's really, I mean, I've said here in my sin, me, I've said, you know, God, whatever you need from me, I've said those things and I mean them.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, if whatever he needs from me, that's what I'm here for, you know.

[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, I think it's so, so amazing to be used to that potential of just given it all to the Lord and just saying God, like, you know, there's no fear here.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, just use us and whatever ways.

[SPEAKER_00]: And you were done preaching and you were standing up there.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, this is a wood element.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is where not only is this you for revival, but like this is where you're supposed to like preach.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I just, you know, at that point, I'm like, I wonder if he feels this desire too.

[SPEAKER_00]: I wonder if this is a desire of yours, because obviously you retired, but that didn't last long.

[SPEAKER_00]: Um, yeah, that didn't last bit of a few months, what a nice life for that was.

[SPEAKER_00]: That was so good.

[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, good news.

[SPEAKER_00]: But I looked at you and I could kind of see that longing too.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, he loves this.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like he loves to serve the Lord and to preach.

[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, we could do this more often.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, it would?

[SPEAKER_00]: You want to start preaching?

[SPEAKER_00]: You want to start doing some preaching services?

[SPEAKER_00]: And, uh, you know, L would say when and where he's ready to go, he's ready to serve the Lord.

[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he knows, you know, what he's created for and it's to glorify the Lord, to serve the Lord.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I felt like, uh, in that moment, I'm like, all right, this is, this is new.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it's, it's, it's just a, like a new beginning.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you know, of what God's got planned for, for you now.

[SPEAKER_01]: I guess so, you know.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm along for the ride.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just your eight-minute corner over there.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm my Bobby.

[SPEAKER_00]: Just stand on to the side, go and aim in.

[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, good.

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not tied down to any church.

[SPEAKER_01]: And so it's wide open.

[SPEAKER_01]: And why not?

[SPEAKER_01]: Why not?

[SPEAKER_01]: We just have to push these people down so they won't have no rotten tomatoes when they come through the gate.

[SPEAKER_01]: But, you know,

[SPEAKER_01]: And we got the space, we got the place, and why not?

[SPEAKER_00]: Why not?

[SPEAKER_01]: Why not?

[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people need it.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: And then I ask myself, why me?

[SPEAKER_01]: Then I ask myself, why not me?

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_01]: Come on.

[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.

[SPEAKER_01]: And so we're going to follow on it.

[SPEAKER_01]: So it is too.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's right.

[SPEAKER_01]: And so we'll see what the Lord has in store.

[SPEAKER_01]: Who knows?

[SPEAKER_01]: Who knows?

[SPEAKER_01]: And it's all about him anyway, and I'm so excited.

[SPEAKER_00]: I am just so excited.

[SPEAKER_00]: I just Just watching what all God has planned and being able to glorify him in this magnitude and just have it here.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we

[SPEAKER_00]: Kind of been nomads.

[SPEAKER_00]: We've just been travelin' around from place to place, like wanderers, just you though, wherever.

[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll still do that.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I had a lot of people that were concerned, we went travelin' no more, and I was like, it was got to go to the badlands and sand dunes.

[SPEAKER_00]: But you know, it's, it's we're gonna go, still, it's God sends us.

[SPEAKER_00]: But now we have a place that's home.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, now we have a place that we can go in between, and that people can come to, and they don't

[SPEAKER_00]: they don't have to you know plan and prepare and try to see where we're going next they can come to Kentucky and it can be more often and it can be you know the services there's a lot of people that's already been baptized like they came to our ministry and they were baptized their lives were changed and now they just want to hear preaching that's real you know they want to hear unshiger coded gospel they want to hear and be taught you know I think that's a lost aspect of a lot of um

[SPEAKER_00]: you know Christianity is the teaching aspect of the Bible.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know a lot of times it is a sermon that's wrapped up in a in just a quick self-pleasing gift wrap, you know, whereas people need the hard truth and they need to learn like they need to be taught the things of the Bible and just to see, you know, this isn't like a

[SPEAKER_00]: what we did the other day, it's not like a traditional church service where you have like an agenda of, you know, oh, we're going to sing three songs.

[SPEAKER_00]: Here's your bulletin for the day.

[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to do this and then you go home.

[SPEAKER_00]: No, this is your life's going to be transformed.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like you come here and you get what you came for.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like you come here and you're going to hear preaching and then we're going to lay hands and pray.

[SPEAKER_00]: What do you need?

[SPEAKER_00]: Do you need to repent and be baptized?

[SPEAKER_00]: Here's water.

[SPEAKER_00]: Do you need hands laid on you?

[SPEAKER_00]: Are you sick?

[SPEAKER_00]: Then here we are to pray over

[SPEAKER_00]: here we are you know and I think that that's like I said a lost aspect in the church is just it's become something of tradition and it should be so much more I mean it and now we have this opportunity of God opening our eyes and showing us this and saying here feed my sheep you know you know what to do I've said it in the word time of time again we know what to do and

[SPEAKER_00]: It's just it's surrendering enough, you know, to do those things.

[SPEAKER_00]: I think is where a lot of people have, you know, struggled.

[SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, he's really blessed us to through this process of humbling as we have traveled all over the world.

[SPEAKER_00]: And as we have, you know, had those times of of, you hit like I mentioned 7,000 people showing up on the grounds and reaching a state level emergency and like,

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we've had a lot happened to where we've had to trust in God for all of it.

[SPEAKER_00]: We've had so much happen in this ministry since we started of how we've had to really just trust the Lord for everything.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like absolutely everything to get us through and then now that obedience.

[SPEAKER_00]: has really brought a harvest of just and I truly believe that this is just such a blessing to be able to now do it in your backyard and to be able to like this is where you see where you grew up and to be able to now like not only preach here and have people travel from all over the world to get here to hear you preach.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I know it's not you, but it's still that you, you know, you've surrendered to be that vessel and people are going to come.

[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to come from all over the world.

[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to, they're going because they know that that is real.

[SPEAKER_00]: They've seen it.

[SPEAKER_00]: They've seen the fruit from it and you will know them by their fruit and you do.

[SPEAKER_00]: You see it and, you know, the healings, the testimonies, the, it's being produced.

[SPEAKER_00]: You can't make this stuff up.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's real.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it's, it's just such,

[SPEAKER_00]: such an honor and I can't wait.

[SPEAKER_00]: I can't wait to.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a bit ever service.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a bit your amen corner and just very excited to see what God does and you know, I've had people ask, um, you know, are you going to baptize?

[SPEAKER_00]: And like I said, you know, it's it's I get it.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like they've seen us baptize and but there's just so much more to and you know, if

[SPEAKER_00]: If there comes, you know, if you're doing a preaching service, like there will never be a time that we turn someone down for baptism.

[SPEAKER_00]: Like that's, I've always, you know, to test that, that people would say, if someone come to a church or a service and they were ready to repent and be baptized and someone was just like, oh, the baptism thing ain't, what is it, Baptist tree?

[SPEAKER_01]: that's really a thing.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, isn't full or whatever, maybe the case or we don't have enough people, we have to wait till we have more or you got to take classes first or you're not sanctified enough and the all these things like that burns me up because it's not biblical and it's not how the Bible said or how it was done and you can imagine John the Baptist saying some balloony like that and so I just

[SPEAKER_00]: I now see this opportunity of like God's given us to where I mean if someone comes I don't care I like we're going to be prepared for it like if they're ready to repent and be baptized so so yes like we will probably be baptized on that for every service because if someone's there wanting to be baptized we're not going to tell them no no absolutely not absolutely not

[SPEAKER_01]: We got a lot to do and everything going to be available to these people that come come here That is what it may be the case and it's going to be right there waiting for Oh, they got to do a show up and by the leading of the Lord and the light

[SPEAKER_01]: to repent, be baptized, go about their way, and let God use them out there.

[SPEAKER_01]: And it's an awesome thing that is taking place for the people, it's not for us, it's for the people.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

[SPEAKER_01]: We just stand in the gap, I guess, what you might say of that God can use, and are willing to be used for the cause of Christ.

[SPEAKER_01]: It's there for the people, and all they gotta do is come.

[SPEAKER_01]: And they don't want to be baptized, they don't want to be taken part of the service, just sit down and bask in the glory of the Lord.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_01]: And I'll tell you what, there's nothing like it.

[SPEAKER_01]: There's nothing like it.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be a little different than our revival.

[SPEAKER_00]: They need to list the preaching services because we're not going to have, like, for our big revivals, we have food trucks, we have lots of border properties, we have all the canopy set up because we're prepared to baptize all day.

[SPEAKER_00]: And we have, you know, 20 to 30 pods of baptize.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so we obviously, like, a lot of our team are stretched out to the United States.

[SPEAKER_00]: So we're not going to have that at every preaching service, but like I say, God prepares us.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so I believe the people that come that need to be baptized will be prepared for it.

[SPEAKER_00]: We do have several baptizers here.

[SPEAKER_00]: Me and you get out there but we got James and we've got a few other people here and we've got Victoria and Richard and we've got several people here and so you know we're going to be prepared and ready like if how many ever God sends that's that's why we're here that's

[SPEAKER_00]: we can never lose track of why we're doing what we're doing and it's to bring people to Christ and you know to glorify our Father and to work for Him and to please Him like that's what we're doing and so each person is just so important to be able to help and to minister to and you know I thought about it the other day with that preaching service that you did and

[SPEAKER_00]: There was a few people there that just came, you know, for the preaching service, and I thought, man, this is so cool because we'll have people at the revival just come for the baptisms, and then they get, you know, they're just like, wow, there's so much more here too, you know?

[SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, with this, it's so cool that they're going to be coming for preaching, and I thought about those two ladies.

[SPEAKER_00]: There was two ladies that came from London, remember?

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_00]: And they were sitting there listening to your preach, and they said, we're just here for the service, and we need prayer.

[SPEAKER_00]: And we got to pray over them with them and they got touched and I just like I I love to see you know I mean they were they were just one-on-one speaking in tongues the other one was just being filled like they both felt the presence of the Lord So mildly and I believe in their healing and many things to come from that moment, but Now what I'm getting at is just whatever people need and it's like okay Well, how can we help you?

[SPEAKER_00]: You know like we're here like that's that's what God.

[SPEAKER_00]: I mean throughout the entire Bible He used vessels and

[SPEAKER_00]: Something I prayed on so fiercely and that we've actually seen is, you know, prayed so fiercely about, about Peter, like Lord let us walk in so much Power and authority and confidence in Christ that we can walk by people and even your shadow can touch and heal a person.

[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_00]: That is, you know, I think that in this world, like, to walk in that kind of power and authority in Christ is, is

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to say hard to obtain because it's not just takes complete surrender and humility to be able to surrender to that point, to get to understand that an eight you that it is the power of Christ, that he gets the glory, that it really has none to do with you're just a vessel.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's exactly what you're just, the servant.

[SPEAKER_00]: But to get to that point, it takes a lot of surrender and obedience and just saying, yes, Lord.

[SPEAKER_00]: And then now we're seeing that, you know, we've seen tons of people that are being touched and healed.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so it's so cool to just go over a father, Lord, in this way.

[SPEAKER_00]: And to just say, okay, this is my being and it's yours, Jesus.

[SPEAKER_00]: So you use it, however you want to, you know, if you need me to walk this way, I'll walk that way.

[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if you need me to lay hands, if you need whatever it is that he needs for most We're here for it like that's absolutely that's why we're doing what we're doing.

[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm excited just like at one lady said hey you're doing sit.

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing great.

[SPEAKER_01]: Both body manned and so you know, you know, and she got what she came for right

[SPEAKER_01]: And so that's, that's, we're there to do just that.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.

[SPEAKER_01]: And we're there to do our part, but God can do his part.

[SPEAKER_01]: And if they come seeking something from the Lord, they come to get a, they're coming to get it from him.

[SPEAKER_01]: But just like you said, we're just vessels.

[SPEAKER_01]: That's the Lord can use and just see people's lives, transform and see them set on far for the Lord.

[SPEAKER_01]: That they can have the victory that they came to get.

[SPEAKER_00]: Well, up and coming, what do we got planned?

[SPEAKER_00]: We've got some preaching services.

[SPEAKER_00]: People can be on the lookout for when you're going to be up there preaching.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_00]: Don't bring you tomatoes.

[SPEAKER_00]: So, for Kentucky, we have some preaching services coming up and we have our September revival coming up and, you know, it does get winter here, so, you know, right after September, we probably won't have another revival here in Kentucky, but it's possible of just kind of whatever the Lord leads us to, but that's where we're, we're, yes, Lord and whatever he needs, so whatever Jesus tells us and that's how we'll plan it.

[SPEAKER_00]: So be on the lookout, the pin post on all of our socials, that's where you can find out the services and what we're doing.

[SPEAKER_00]: And you'll find out when we do because that's usually how it works, the Lord tells us and then you know, you can find out.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so we'll definitely be having some more services here in Kentucky and we're just so excited to see what the Lord does.

[SPEAKER_00]: And we got a lake to build.

[SPEAKER_00]: We've got a lot of work yet to do here in Kentucky to just continue to prepare the ground so that you know, God can send multitudes, multitudes from all over the world.

[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.

[SPEAKER_00]: Thank y'all for hearing us talk about Kentucky and how excited we are.

[SPEAKER_00]: We truly are just

[SPEAKER_00]: I know we're just buzzing over here about it because it's just so exciting to see what the Lord is doing here in Kentucky.

[SPEAKER_00]: So we hope that you can come out and be a part of it.

[SPEAKER_00]: Just pray that you can make it and just see this massive move of God and be a part of it with us.

[SPEAKER_01]: Amen.

[SPEAKER_01]: May the Lord richly bless you both body, mind and soul.

[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see you here in Kentucky.

[SPEAKER_01]: Amen.
