Omega People

Hello, everyone, and welcome again to Wednesday night live. This is Ron Crawford coming to you from Dallas, Texas from the Father's Church, and it is a great blessing to be able to reach out this morning on this beautiful October 7 morning and, to say to all of our Saints family, God bless each of you. We just returned from a very powerful time in the country of France with our brothers and sisters from Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, and France. Me. Donald's sinuses hit me as soon as I got off the plane.

How wonderful. And I want to thank the Lord for his goodness in protecting us, giving us safety and travel, giving us health and life, and mostly want to be grateful for his presence because we had some wonderful meetings, and I know that Monica Terrell will be undoubtedly sharing her testimony of things that she feels the Lord wants her to relate from the gathering. She'll do that on Sunday, but it's just me and you here today. So I pray that God would continue to bless our French speaking brothers and sisters. I think that the most prolific thing that I observed, in my opinion, was the fact that these dear people are remaining faithful to the Lord, and they are doing the things that saints should do.

They are praying, They're spending time before the father. They're obeying him. They're staying current with the fresh meat that the saints are feasting upon, and I am just so so blessed by that. We had some dynamic prayer times, wonderful times of prophetic ministry to one another. We heard glorious testimonies of what God is doing in lots of different places.

Pardon me. And I know that many of you undoubtedly have seen the unrest that's occurring right now in many places in France. We did not see any of that. God preserved us from it. It is a combination of leftist ideology, unsettled immigration poppets where people have flooded in in the European Union and set up enclaves that have not assimilated into the culture and the body of what it means to be citizens of those countries, and the socialist leftist agenda has pinpointed things that are true.

Like for instance, if you bring in millions and millions of people and you flood the school systems, and then you have unrest within the schools, you have things that are focused on that have nothing to do with education, but they become the prime directive for those school systems. You have teachers that say I don't want to have anything to do with this anymore, so they pull out of the system. So then you have a ratio of 40 to 50 to one in some classes, many of which don't speak the language of the country, and it's just a recipe for disaster. So the leftist ideology will rise up and flame the situation, you know, the government doesn't care, or you're being racist, or you're doing this, or you're whatever, when their ideologies are the ones that created the mess. And so France, which has never seen a protest that they didn't like, and that's just true, they're always striking.

I joke with the people over there, some of you were rolling your eyes, oh you shouldn't say that. Well you know, sometimes you just gotta, like the old timer said, call a spade a spade. And you know, if it quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck. This is what's happening, and you see young people that just don't have any clue as to what really is going on, and they tout the party line of of rebellion. Have we seen that in our country?

Yes. And then the out... The other side is that the pope was just in Paris a week before we were there, and he had estimates of 800,000 that were in this huge gathering from the Place De La Concorde where the giant obelisk is, which is where they guillotined thousands of people during the French Revolution, and it's also there by the Creon Hotel where which was the headquarters of the Allied brain trust from World War I. All of that's there, all the way up to the Tuileries to the Arc De Triomphe. I don't know how they did this, they were still tearing down the structure that made this possible.

You could see it happening. So you have Catholicism, many young people, and whatever that represents in in Europe. You have the pope who is basically an ideologue from Chicago. That's just the truth. Close friend of David Axelrod.

That's just read the box score. So I don't know where he's going. He's better than what the last pope was, who many of my Catholic friends called the antipope. So you have a lot of crazy things going on, but in the midst of that darkness and gross darkness, you have the people of God calling upon him. So that's, that's a geopolitical start to this broadcast, which probably is not wise if you want to have any sense of continuity, but we're very grateful to be back home safely, and I want to thank all of you who prayed.

We're now trying to determine what the best course of strategy is for our Saints there in Western Europe. We have many different opportunities, many different strategies that have been put forward, but we just need to know what God wants. That sounds trite, but it's true. You can do things that are in the ministry that are good things, but not necessarily the things that God is ordaining for that moment. And sometimes it's very hard to discern between the two.

You can do good things or you can do the right thing. And I think that's true in life. Sometimes you look back on decisions that you may have made in your life. Of course, I understand that some of you are perfect, so you would never do this. And you think, I wish I had a do over on that.

What I did was a good thing, and I felt right about it because it was a good thing. But somewhere in the back of my mind, I knew that God was putting a different pathway in front of me and I could see the power of it, but I elected to do the good thing rather than the right thing. Life is that way, isn't it? So we need to do the right thing. We need to do exactly what the spirit is asking because the time is short, we have irons in many fires right now, and we just need to accomplish the will of the Lord.

We really do. And the will of the Lord is not whatever you think he wants to do. The will of the Lord is usually going to be guided by the spirit in a way that you're having to step out in faith and you're not uncomfortable with it. A good thing makes you feel good. The right thing is the best thing, but it's going to cost you something.

Sometimes it costs you to do a good thing, but the benefits and the return is not commensurate with what you actually sacrificed. So I know that over the years we've done a lot of good things. We've done things because people, we felt we had an obligation to them, we've done things because it's just what we've always done, and I know that God was blessed by it. But as I am evaluating, and I always evaluate, I've thought of several instances where I wish I had curtailed the good thing in retrospect to go after a course of faith which would have yielded incredibly more results for the kingdom. So it's a fine line, it really is.

And I know that we need the directive of the spirit for Western Europe. We need it for our own country, our own ministry here, and we need it for South America. That place is burgeoning and everybody wants something and everybody is looking to us as daddy Warbucks. If you don't know what that is, just research your your American history. It's a term for World War two.

It was typified in the Broadway and movie play Annie, and even those of you who are shaking your head so I never watch such things, you obviously have to know that. You would have had to have been dead and in a corner most of your life not to hear the song The sun'll come out tomorrow. Bless your bottom dollar dollar that tomorrow. Tomorrow, tomorrow. That was in the hymnal.

Tammy's already at the organ playing it in right key. I got into a ridiculous key there. So we just need wisdom and that's what I'm praying for. And we go to Brazil in three weeks for an extensive point of ministry. But after that journey, I'm planning to step back for a few months and write and just evaluate and get the mind of the Lord.

It's not because I'm weak. It's because I recognize the time, and you have to you have to do that every now and then. You have to say, where am I investing myself? And in investing what God has given me, am I ignoring what he's really called me to be because everybody wants something. Every field is crying for something.

And that's a good thing in a way, but which of those fields should their cry be turning to the Lord and not to us? So we'll still have church. It is the holiday season. It'll be a fun time for everybody. God's blessing us.

But, we're gonna we're gonna make some changes, because we have to we have to be before the Lord and find out what it is in this new day that would best return the results for the kingdom. Amen? So don't get all in a flutter over this. I'm just giving you fair warning. We're all in this together.

Well, most of us are. And we've got a field of harvest in front of us. We just need to seek the hundredfold. And, you know, that 30, 60, 100, we have Saints, mighty men. We're positioning them to begin to do the 60 of the gatekeepers and reaching out, the 70 of the eldership, but we need the hundredfold where the gates are reaching in an international flavor from from all of these places, and we've not really seen that yet.

We're still trying to get some outpost to work with the people across the city from each other. But on an international scale for the Saints, every joint supplies means that South America should be in some ways serving what's going on in Europe. Europe has been praying for other outposts, but we need to all come together before the throne and see the power of that magnified prospect of agreement. And so God's going to direct us, and, I'm still trying to determine what we're going to do in March. We just had this jubilee gathering, and, that would beckon us to do something different at least for the very next one.

You know, at some point, the 50 signifies that you return to your roots, you return to your inheritance, you configure who you really are to be in the Lord and try to pursue that, and, we'll see. Don't read too much into that. I'm not making any public statement, but I'm telling you right now that our gathering here in March is gonna be it's gonna be different, so just get ready for it. And if you if you just cherish the way things have been done over the past 50 of these, we'll just go to that wall of wonder that Nathan has prepared for us, and you just cherish that. But number 51 is gonna be different, and I don't know yet what it is.

God will probably start speaking about that in in January, but it's not going to be the way it always has been. I can tell you that right now. Wonder of wonders. We flew back yesterday. You know, we were up for twenty four hours straight because airfares were so ridiculously high.

I don't know whether it was the Pope being there, I don't know whether it was the Asian countries who seemed to all be on vacation, all in France at that time. I don't know what it was, but I had to be very creative in trying to find a flight itinerary that didn't cost four times the normal. And so one of the things that we had to do was we had to fly on Iberia into Madrid, and that flight left at 06:00 from Charles de Gaulle, six in the morning. So we had a wonderful privilege of leaving the place we were staying at three in the morning, and then that flight made it to Madrid, the American Airlines flight, got about halfway here, and then all the lavatories, most of the lavatories 80% I want to be accurate because Monica wants me to be accurate 80% of the lavatories were not working. So instead of just going the extra two and a half hours or three into Dallas, they elected to go two and a half hours into JFK in New York where they were going to fix these things.

So we all had to get off the plane, all of these Spanish speaking people and us. We had to clear customs, we had to collect bags, we had to recheck bags, we had to go back through security and go back up to the same gate to leave there about three hours after we landed. Well we get up in the air and about thirty minutes in, none of the lavatories on the left hand side of this big seven seventy seven were working. Hi, hi, hi. So when we finally landed in DFW, you know, if you land outside of your normal slot, they'll make you land somewhere down near Oak Cliff, and you land where all these big storage facilities are, and you taxi for ten to fifteen minutes to get back up to the terminal.

So when we finally disembarked from the plane at DFW, grateful to be home, we recognized that we had been up for over twenty four hours. Can you imagine that? Some of you think these trips are glamorous. It's nonstop. I mean it is nonstop working for the Lord, but this, thankfully we were safe, But, so here I am.

I don't know what Monica's doing. I don't know what the rest of our saints are doing. We need to pray for Sylvie because Sylvie was there with us in Versailles and, got to talk to Luke on the phone. That was a blessing. But Sylvie has relocated.

She's moved into an apartment that she owns. When she got back home, somebody had written graffiti on her door. It's a closed community. So we're praying for her. I know it's just the enemy trying to rattle the cage.

We met with her on FaceTime and prayed, but God's good. God is good. So forgive me. I'm not sick. I know sometimes people say that when they probably are, but I'm not.

This sinus stuff started immediately when I left the terminal at DFW. Thank for Texas. Alright. I sent you an attachment. I want to thank brother Scott for putting this up for you, and it's nothing profound, but last Friday on the power devotional, we talked about the fact that there was an exclamatory reference used almost 20 times in the New Testament, was just the Greek letter Omega.

And it's found in many, many passages of scripture, and when it's at the beginning of a concept or a theme, it really indicates what the objective, the purpose laden objective of God is. And so while I didn't highlight all of them because some of them had to do about single people, some of you are gonna rush for that right now. You figure that out, and I'm not demeaning it. It's the word of God, but most of that didn't really apply to you and me. So I put together this thing for you, which is called the Omega People.

Now let me just... For for all of us that sit in the back of the class, let's just clarify this. In Revelation one eight, Jesus says, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first letter and the last letter of the Greek alphabet. The beginning and the end says the Lord, which is, which was, and which is to come the Almighty. Pantokrator.

This is four times the Lord in Revelation calls himself the Alpha and the Omega, which means that what he begins, is going to complete. We used to sing that chorus, he's the Alpha and Omega, And we would sing it. We worship you, oh God. You are worthy to be praised. What does that really mean other than God finish what he starts and that he he is the first and the last.

Well, those four instances are describing who God is, but what we're going to look at today is the way that Omega was used beyond a nomenclature assignment, beyond a name, beyond a specified identity, which is those four instances in Revelation. And you better pay attention because this is who God says he is. So don't give me this, oh, it's all Greek. I don't understand this. Say something with passion or whatever.

We are living in the auspices of the Alpha and the Omega. So you dare should say, I want to know what this means because it's describing my God and it's giving us what we're supposed to be doing. So in roughly 17 passages in the New Testament, the word of the Lord uses this exclamatory version of Omega that opens up a topic, and every time you see this, it's like saying this is that, or here is the objective that has to be accomplished, or in the broader sense, this is what God is demanding and will be, because when you use this Omega, that's the way that's the way it is. Now this term was used in, you know, in Grecian society if they were going to state this is the purpose, this is the directive, This is the goal. And...

But when Jesus says that he is the Alpha and the Omega, he's saying this is what my agenda is, so you better look at it. So I listed these for you, and I think it would be good for you to just pull them up and declare them. See how you align yourself with these things. Now I could have spit out all the scriptures for you, but you have the Bible program. Just be thankful that I did this for you.

The first one is Matthew six, and it's talking about our relationship with the Father. And it's that passage where he's saying don't be like the hypocrites of the religious people. You go into the secret place, you're thesaurus, and you offer yourself in secret to the Father, and this exclamatory Omega is there. I think that is the ultimate objective of God for humanity, for you and me. This is what he wanted from before the foundation of the world, and so that wonderful passage, we can talk about scripted religious prayer, we can talk about pride, we can talk about going where this is a hidden place in the house where you kept your treasures, we could talk about, you know, we could extrapolate off while you wrap yourself in the prayer shawl.

You know, we could go through specific words and all those things that we've talked about in the past. But this is the objective of God. This is the Omega, and it's the first issuance. I like John six sixty five, only God the father can draw people to Jesus. Matthew six twenty two, our eye must be focused on what God wants.

These are all Omega exclamatories. Matthew ten thirteen, whatever house we go into on our mission, the house must be worthy to willing to embrace the weightiness of the peace of our calling, and if it's not, you leave it. You shake the dust. Oh, but they're such nice people. We love them so much.

That may be true, and it doesn't mean you stop loving them. But you're wasting your time in a place. You're wasting valuable time in a place that does not want to embrace what your calling is. Well, but pastor, how would you know? Maybe two months later.

Oh, don't give me that fiddle and cry business. Who said this? Jesus. Why don't you take it up with him? What did he mean when he said, if you go on a mission and you go into a place that you have a great time with them, but they don't want to bear the weight of your mission?

You leave that place and not only do you leave it, you shake the dust and you find the place that God is wanting. Now there's also another passage that speaks about if you go to a place and people are embracing, and then you find somebody with in a richer zip code that wants you to go off over there, well you've got to be careful with that too, because wealth doesn't mean health. But this is the objective of the Lord and it's clarifying how we go forward, what we're there to do, and it's clarifying that it's okay if you recognize that these people, albeit good Christian, they don't want to follow what you're doing. Get away from them. You know, we waste a lot of energy in those environments.

You know, and I know about you, the famous Chinese evangelist, about you. Even hanging around with people that are good Christian people who are doing another thing could be counterproductive to you. It dumbs you down. It dulls your sword. Look, we've been around long enough to know you can come into a place and you can see people who are receiving, not just as a small rooted sprout, but people who are really receiving.

We saw a bunch of them in Europe this past week. That's where you invest yourself because those are your disciples. These other people have their own their own mix. I gotta be careful with illustrations. Maybe when I'm 90, one of the one of the French ladies prophesied over me that I I was gonna be strong environment, well, into my nineties, so I just need to keep going.

I like that since I just turned 69 today. But, you know, I I I think of times, like I went to... The Lord told me to go to a certain place and minister. I went on my own, and I had good meetings. God was doing miracles.

I mean, incredible, unexplainable miracles during that gathering. But I came to realize that I was just the most recent dog and pony show they'd brought in, and that they were really drinking from the fountain over here, and drinking from the fountain over here, and they were like Howard Johnson's with their 30 some flavors. Do they still have that anymore? I don't know. But I bless them, but I've not made any strides to go back.

And for every other reason in my own life, I would have wanted to go back, and I won't say anything more about that. Oh, but boy, didn't God work miracles? Yes. Why did he make... Work the miracles?

Because he was trying to get the attention of these people. This is what your calling should be. Stop playing games with all these other things that entertain you. So why am I focusing so much on this? Because it's what Jesus said, and he he he exclaimed at the very beginning this freestanding Omega letter as an exclamatory.

This is the objective of what the Alpha and Omega is trying to do. So this is God's objective. It's not just a good idea, not Pastor Ron's objective, not just being... Trying to be holier than them. Well, we actually are saintlier than them.

We've embraced the saints' message. They don't have any idea of what they are. Really, it's true. Isn't that true? We say holier than thou, and that's off of saintly.

Anyway, I I I digress, obviously. Let's see what else do we have. Matthew 20 verse four, the whole vineyard business where the wages in the end time, God will give you what's right. Don't negotiate for a better contract with God. Have you have you been dealing with that?

I've raised my hand. Sometimes Ronnie gets involved and and I say things to the Lord during my prayer time, and I don't understand why this is happening, why this is not happening. And then I recognize God is giving us exactly what we need. We're blessed. And, sometimes people that come in at the late hour who didn't invest long before when we were putting our lives on the line, now they're doing this and they're doing that.

If that doesn't get you, don't know who you are. Mark three fourteen, ordaining the 12, that's great. Mark five eighteen, this would be a good one for for some of you. The man that was delivered from the legion of demons, the unclean spirit army, he wanted to travel with Jesus because he recognized after all that demonic influence in his life that this was not only God, but that this was the objective of the heavenly father, the Omega. And Jesus said, you you root yourself right here, buddy, and you don't need to be traveling around with me.

You need to do what you're supposed to do where you are. Luke fourteen eight, at a wedding feast, you sit in a humble place. That's an Omega passage. Can you imagine that? Oh, Lord.

Something about humility. We have to keep checking ourselves that we will be that way. John three, Nicodemus, an Irishman in the Bible. Nicodemus. Was he really Irish pastor?

No. I'm just joking. Ask Dennis about them. He... He'll tell you the Scottish and and Irish roots of Nicodemus.

Seeing miracles proclaimed that God was with Jesus, that's an amazing thing. Here was somebody from the religious hierarchy of the Jews, and he was proclaiming the Omega. That's that's incredible. John nine thirty one, this is a great one. The Lord specifically says that God hears those who proskuneo.

I like to know that. That's great. John fourteen three, our heavenly placement and home reiterated in 1724, not the year, but in chapter 17 verse 24. John sixteen twenty four, I teo that your joy can omega in its fullness. What's that mean for us?

If you insert this idea of the Omega, that this is the agenda of God. I'm giving you key points. I want you to ask as a partner with him so that joy would be fulfilled. Wow. That's an Omega?

Yeah it is. First John one four, your joy must be full, another Omega. Second John one twelve, another Omega, same thing. John seventeen eleven, there's a lot of Omega, it's three at least in John 17, to be one with the Father, to be sanctified or holy along with the truth, and the agape and Jesus be in us, that's an Omega exclamatory. Do you want that?

I do. Gamaliel's counsel in acts five thirty eight about the power of God, and that was really the only sane thing those Jewish leaders were saying in Acts five. Gamaliel stood up who Paul said had trained him. He said, you know, if this isn't of God, it's gonna fall, But if it is of God and you try to stop it, you're gonna be you're gonna be in a peck of trouble. That...

That's my rephrasing. I remember when we had denominational officials here on a Wednesday night, and, one of the men who I'd known for years stood up and invoked the counsel of Gamaliel. It was kind of vague when he did it, and I thought, I wish you'd clarify that my dear brother, for these guys that have come on a lynching party, because they're attacking what God's doing. And, but he he spoke about Gamaliel, and that was an Omega principle. Isaiah and Romans nine twenty seven says that the remnant of Israel is going to be saved.

That's great. There are first Corinthians one ten and twelve twenty five, no divisions be perfectly joined together. No divisions. That is an Omega mandate. And then the one that I spoke about last week in the power devotional, first Corinthians two:five, it's a double issuance where our faith rests in God's power, not earthly wisdom.

What a thing is what a thing is that? Second Corinthians four seven, the excellence of the power is in God and not of us. First Corinthians five seven, no old leaven. That is an amazing Omega principle. First Corinthians fourteen twenty eight, this is for all of us who believe in praying in the spirit and interpreting.

The necessity of an hermeneia, an interpreter being present during prayer times, whether it's tongues or diversities of tongues. That's an Omega principle. Why? Because if if God is giving you Mysterion about tasks, if God says I want to fulfill what I'm telling you, you better make sure you've got an interpreter there so it doesn't go haywire. And it can really go haywire if if you let people's emotions or if you let somebody with an an itch to be a leader who's really not called to be a leader.

That's an Omega principle. First Corinthians fifteen twenty eight, the ultimate power of God and the totality of his victory. First Corinthians one:five, don't fear for your own safety for God can raise the dead. That's an Omega principle. Sure is.

Second Corinthians thirteen nine, you can put this on your refrigerator because you'll see it a lot of times during the day. You are strong. And then maybe put right under it, Ephesians four fourteen, grow up. Then here you go, Ephesians five twenty seven, it's a glorious church without spot or wrinkle. That's an Omega principle.

But what does it mean? It doesn't mean the length of your hair, how long the skirts are in the ladies, or the kilts are in the men. It's a glorious church, one that is partnering with God in his glory, who is holy, and he doesn't let anything besmirch that mission. That is an Omega principle. Second Timothy three seventeen Paul told him in an Omega exclamatory to be a perfect minister unto God.

Titus one nine, I have a feeling we're gonna need this more and more as the days continue. Sound doctrine to withstand gainsayers. James one four, patience is perfect and tired and lacking nothing. James five fifteen, the prayer of faith restores the errant missing of the mark. What a thing is that?

Isn't that something? I love that. Well, as you can see, this is really kind of a... It's a treatise for you. I think we need to be proclaiming these things over ourselves Because it it should be because of the scripture.

The scripture itself should be enough for us, and it and it is. But when you add this incredible Omega exclamatory... Wow. It's incredible. It really is.

I mean, to know that this is in alignment with the objective of God the Father, what he initiated, this is what needs to happen so that the end can be in alignment with exactly what God wants. And so many of these things are what we as saints have been commissioned to do, aren't they? I mean, think about it. Trying to interpret Pentecostal prayer meetings, finding the secret place with the heavenly father, going into places that God directs us and making a decision as to who is serious and who is not, moving in proclaiming the truth and proclaiming the word and being able to know what the scripture says if somebody comes and tries to discredit you and knowing when to argue the point of the word and when to not tolerate fools. Paul said, you know, I'm not gonna engage in foolish debate.

Foolish debate. These are Omega principles. We need to be declaring these into ourselves. If we want to partner with the Lord in these times of the end, and we want to fulfill what God has really commissioned us to do to the T, we need to be declaring these. So let's clarify it one more time before we go.

This is one of those rare times. In fact, I think it's the only one I remember from seminary, and I didn't... I I remembered this after I saw it. The Alpha and Omega in Revelation, those four instances, that's the only time Alpha stands alone in the New Testament. And that's the only time that the name associated with Omega is in the New Testament.

But the only other time a Greek letter is used in a vocabulary type of a way is this exclamatory of Omega. So when Jesus says I'm the Alpha and Omega, that's in the position of a name and a specific name, but when you use the Omega variant, and it's still Omega, as an exclamatory at the beginning it targets that this is vital. It's something that God has ordained to number one, bring His purpose to a conclusion. It's something that is like an exclamation point. You better pay attention to this and you better make sure that this is exactly what you're doing because the one who's called you, this is his objective.

This is going to lead to the fulfillment. And so you put that right up at the front, like saying, pay attention to this. Pay attention to this. And there it is, the Omega. So are we Omega People?

I hope so. I hope so. And I think we need to acquaint ourselves. Now you don't need this list that I gave you. I just did it because I was having devotional this morning.

I'm still on European time, so I was up really early. But I did it as part of a devotional, looking over these words, these scriptures. But you can just easily pull it up on your Strong's program and go through them. You can go through them. You look at it.

Don't get perplexed by it. It's pretty simple if you just cut away all of the doctrinal views and just say, why did God in the holy scripture put an Omega exclamatory at the beginning of this particular statement, and how am I aligning with that? Am I am I using this this particular topic as a suggestion, or am I seeing it in what the Lord, the Holy Spirit, and the Father have all said this is who I am, this is what I am intending to fulfill, and this is how you can align yourself with me toward that pursuit. And I love it. I mean, you could you could work with this.

You could say, which of these are agenda for our mission? Which of these are things that we should do in going forward? Which of these are my personal relationship with God? Which of these have to do with prayer? Which of these have to do...

You could do that. Well, why don't you do it for me, pastor? Because you're pneumatocos people. And as soon as I do it, somebody would stick their hand up in the back. Well I didn't see it exactly that way, I thought this one should be here.

And then we have to go through that. You know there are two cooks in the kitchen, we're both making cheesecake, and this person has the same ingredients, but they do it a little different. So it's all going in the same mix, just like fivefold discussions. I get weary with that. I do.

Oh my goodness. It's even like packing, know. When you travel, there are things that I want in my suitcase because I think I might need this and I'm not going to find it down where I'm going. But then somebody else is packing for the same trip, and they don't even think of that. Our objective is the same.

We're gonna go to minister. We're gonna need this and this and this, but we both get there. We both are ready, but we're thinking of the same thing in a different way, but the objective is the same. So you can group these. Chew on it.

I think this is a gift from the Lord to us. This Omega exclamatory. And you're not gonna find a whole lot, those of you who are searching it right now. Where'd you get that, pastor? I hope you don't do that when you go to the doctor.

Well, this is what you have, and I'm suggesting you do this. You sit there and say, where'd you get that, doctor? Well, I had seven years of internship at the emergency room down here. I went to this school, and I went to that school. I've been to all of these different workshops, and I've had twenty years in the business.

That's where I got it. So you're not gonna find a whole lot of discussion about this exclamatory because nobody really thinks too much about God being the Alpha and the Omega. They just sing about it every now and then. He's the author and the finisher, the beginning and the end. That sounds real good.

We can sanctimoniously straighten our tie at the first church when we have to wear a suit. But Alpha and Omega is what what is God from the foundation of the world established? How did he wanna partner with you and me? Why has the enemy fought that? What's the objective?

I love those ones about the father and proscuneoing. This is an Omega. It's not a... It's not an option. One of the things we love so much when we go to Western Europe is that you don't have to tell those those dear ones.

Alright. We're gonna proscuneo, and then you see a bunch of them just sitting around gawking at you. Switzerland, they did that. I'll never forget that time we went to we went outside of Geneva to this little subdivision called Nyon. I'm not pronouncing it right.

Oh, you mean Nyon? Well, N Y O N. And we went into the Salvation Army building, and they had this lovely auditorium that was rented. And there was this picture, we called it the Dirk Nowitzky Jesus. This huge painting up at the front of the church where this blonde haired Jesus is there with his arms open.

He was a Palestinian blonde. Comes in a bottle. Anyway, we spoke about proscuneo. I spoke on proscuneo. We had a big team of Saints there, and this place was packed with all these Swiss people, most of whom we did not know.

They'd come to see the little latest batch dog and pony show from North America. So I said, we're all gonna lay on our face, and we're gonna pray in the spirit. So our whole team lays down, and, there were some really funny things that happened during that time, which I will not regale with you now. But finally, after about twenty five minutes, I got up and 90% of those Swiss people were sitting there in the pews, eyes wider than silver dollars, just gawking and looking. And I thought, I know you're neutral, Swiss people, but I just showed you in the word over and over and over again what this is.

I drew it out from the from the Old Testament. I drew it out from the Sha'al, from the Old Testament. I put this all there. And in a legal case, unless you had a a leftist judge, it would have been a closed case. They would have been suing for settlement after the first two minutes, but it didn't matter.

We're not gonna get on our face. I don't care what you showed us from scripture. This is not the way we do things. We've not been back to that place. But here to see that it is an Omega thing, it was enough that Jesus said the Father searches for this.

Why would it be an Omega thing? Because here, guess what? If those people make it to heaven, which is up to God, they're gonna be on their face one way or the other because that's what the angels do. That's what the elders do. That's where thousands upon thousands in the scripture, they're all on their face before the Lord, and they're casting crowns.

I'm not sure a Swiss person would want to let go of gold that quickly, but both of those instances are going to have to be settled because that's what's going to happen in heaven. That is an Omega principle. This is the way it's going to be for eternity. So when we lay on our face with all of the wonderful things that we see proskineo involves, It's also the objective of the finality of God's purpose. And that is that is an additional galvanizing point for proscuneo.

So let's make it our mission ongoingly, but particularly over these next weeks to go through the Strong's. You know, I just listed these verses. You can look through them yourself. Read them. Declare them over yourself.

Find one of the omegas, click on it, do the search engine, and you'll know exactly which word. It's it's wonderful. This is one of those hidden things that's right before our eyes that the father has awakened in these days. We must need it, don't we? So we'll look forward to Friday devotional, and I look forward to seeing all of you on Saturday for prayer, and then on Sunday.

God bless you all, and hope you hope you will really take advantage of these scriptures because they are wonderful for us. Till next time. God bless, and goodbye.
