0:00Amen. Amen. Go ahead, stay standing this
0:04morning. Place your hand on your
0:06neighbor if you can.
0:08If they look at you like, "Don't you
0:10touch me." SAY, "THE DEVIL IS A LIAR.
0:14YOU WEREN'T MEANT TO GO IT ALONE." AND
0:16PLACE YOUR HAND ON them anyways.
0:18Oo, somebody said that got serious
0:20quick. Sure did. Father, we thank you.
0:24Now, let's go 10 seconds in, church.
0:27Let's just declare blessing over our
0:29neighbor, over the person we're
0:31connected with right now. God, bless
0:33them. Fill them this morning. God, may
0:36their cup overflow with your goodness in
0:39their life. Father, we thank you
0:43that you have called your people to be
0:46righteous and holy, set apart for you.
0:48Thank you for the immediate word of the
0:50Lord going deep into the heart of every
0:53listener this morning, everyone watching
0:55online and everyone in this room. We
0:57bless your name now in Jesus name. Amen.
1:00Go ahead, have a seat. On your way down
1:02to the seat, let your neighbor know you
1:04look younger already. The prayers of a
1:08righteous, that would be me, must have
1:10availth much over you. And then let them
1:13know you're welcome.
1:17Are you with me this morning?
1:20>> Boy, I'm excited for today. Uh, this is
1:22something that I just felt stirring so
1:24much on my heart. We're coming out of
1:26some really incredible seasons series on
1:29wells, a series on great awakenings, our
1:32wells weekend. How many of you really uh
1:34have been experiencing the presence of
1:36God through both these past two series
1:38and this time of pressing in with the
1:40Lord?
1:42>> YEAH. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. There we go.
1:44Amen. Amen. All right. Good, good. Got
1:46to catch you up this morning. Um, but
1:48this morning I really felt pressing on
1:50my spirit um to take time today uh
1:54because I have this sense from the Lord
1:56that time is of the essence right now.
2:01And maybe you are sensing this or
2:02feeling this. Um, but I I have this
2:05sense from the Lord that his timing, his
2:09ways, the way he's speaking and moving,
2:13the promises that he's spoken over us,
2:16the places of our destiny, the places of
2:18our heart's desire, the longing of who
2:21we are, that there is a um pressing from
2:24God on his timing and the timing of the
2:28Lord over our life. And so today, uh,
2:32we're going to take some time,
2:35okay, to lean into and to align
2:38ourselves. Now, let me just lay this
2:40foundation for you. There's two MAJOR
2:42TIMES AS A CHURCH THAT we intentionally
2:45pursue corporate prophetic words and
2:49understanding
2:50and prophetic vision for the year. We do
2:52this in January at our atlas during our
2:55atlas series.
2:57>> Okay.
2:58Some of us really love it.
3:01Some of us aren't so sure. If your
3:04friend did not warn you, the pastor who
3:07preaches often
3:09sings a little
3:12and to that you say, "Right on."
3:17Okay, just seeing if you were with me
3:19last week and if you remembered. All
3:21right. All right.
3:23We pursue this in January during our
3:24atlas series and then we TAKE TIME ON
3:26PALM Sunday which in our house WE
3:28DECLARE AS A VISION Sunday and these two
3:32times these two moments serve distinct
3:35purposes um throughout the YEAR WHEN WE
3:38TAKE THESE WORDS THEN WE press into
3:41these words we follow THE VISION THAT
3:43GETS presented and how we develop our
3:46series times of equipping and pursuit AS
3:49A CHURCH. SO WHAT WE PRESENT IN VISION
3:51SUNDAY WHICH THIS PAST YEAR was a zeal
3:55we then take that as a as a house and
3:58then that influences one what we're
4:01pressing in for two to WHAT WE KNOW TO
4:03BE A PROPHETIC grace resting over our
4:07house.
4:09When we when we you uh look at that, we
4:11know
4:13that the prophetic grace that when it
4:16rests OVER OUR HOUSE ARE WAYS THAT we
4:18you and I, the church as a whole, you
4:21individually, us as church leadership,
4:24can step INTO IN FAITH. SOMEBODY SAY,
4:27"IN FAITH."
4:29>> In faith.
4:29>> I CAN STEP INTO IT IN FAITH BECAUSE
4:32THERE'S A GRACE. MEANING GOD'S
4:35SUPERNATURAL POWER CLOAKS ITSELF AROUND
4:39ME to step into things THAT IN MY OWN
4:42NATURAL STRENGTH I WOULD NOT HAVE THE
4:44ABILITY TO DO. HOW MANY OF YOU EVER
4:46NEEDED GOD'S GRACE IN YOUR LIFE? HOW
4:49MANY OF YOU HAVE EVER HEARD THE PRAYER,
4:50"THEREFORE, BUT THE GRACE OF GOD GO I."
4:54BECAUSE IF GOD'S GRACE DOESN'T GO WITH
4:56ME, I DON'T HAVE MY OWN STRENGTH TO GO
4:59FORTH AND GET THIS THING DONE. ARE YOU
5:01WITH ME THIS MORNING? YEAH.
5:03>> SO WHEN WE CAST VISION, WE'RE SAYING
5:06OVER YOU, THIS IS THE GRACE THAT RESTS
5:09OVER OUR HOUSE. NOW, YOU CAN GO TO
5:11ANOTHER house and THEY CAN HAVE ANOTHER
5:14GRACE.
5:15But when you're in this house,
5:16ESPECIALLY
5:18THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE HAVE HAVE SWN in
5:21with intentional decisions, AND THAT
5:23WOULD BE membership class. It's a little
5:25plug.
5:29We believe in spiritual governmental
5:31authority.
5:33>> So we believe that grace gets extended
5:35to you. And we believe that when that
5:38grace is resting on you, the things that
5:41in the past you would say, "I just don't
5:43have it in me. H I'm just not
5:46motivated." Now we're pressing in as a
5:49house for this to come and rest on you.
5:53So now you can say in faith I may not
5:57feel it but I'm going to choose to say
5:59yes to it because the grace somebody say
6:03grace
6:04>> the grace is resting over me because the
6:07grace is resting over me. I DECLARE WHAT
6:10THE APOSTLE DECLARED. I BEAT MY BODY
6:13DAILY INTO SUBMISSION WITH THE spirit
6:17and the word of God. SO WHEN THE WORD IS
6:20SPOKEN OVER ME THE GRACE IS OVER ME. SO,
6:22I MAY NOT FEEL IT. I MAY NOT WANT IT. I
6:25MAY BE LIKE, "H, BUT YOU DON'T KNOW. You
6:27haven't been WITH ME. I'M TIRED. I'M
6:29ALONE. I'M SEPARATED. I DON'T FEEL
6:31PLUGGED IN." TO THAT, I WOULD SAY THE
6:33DEVIL IS a liar, BUT THE GRACE IS MORE
6:36SUFFICIENT FOR THOSE WHO ARE PURSUING
6:39IT. SO, WHEN THERE'S A GRACE OVER THE
6:42HOUSE, I CAN PARTNER WITH THAT GRACE AND
6:46STEP IN faith for that. AMEN.
6:49>> THE GRACE OVER OUR HOUSE IS ZEAL. A
6:52FERVENT PASSION [screaming] ERUPTING
6:55inside of us. WE PRESENTED this on Palm
6:58Sunday. THE OTHER THING THAT I REFERRED
7:00TO WAS ATLAS. These are the prophetic
7:04words that we sense from the Lord that
7:06we release in January. How many of you
7:08were here for our Atlas series in
7:11January?
7:13WHEN WE PRESS IN THE JANUARY words often
7:17become personal markers. SO ONE IS A
7:21CORPORATE GRACE THAT you can lean into
7:23and contend with. The other serves a
7:26purpose as BEING A PERSONAL MARKER for
7:29you. So you can start to look at what is
7:32happening in your year. YOU CAN COLLABOR
7:36WITH God for your year based on the
7:40declared word and his promises that have
7:43been released. WE'RE NOT THE ONLY HOUSE
7:44WHO does this in January. Okay? There's
7:47prophets who speak out. pastors who
7:50release these words. So, we're not it.
7:53We're just playing our part because we
7:55prophesy IN PART. WE'RE NOT THE END ALL
7:59BE ALL. WE JUST HAVE A PART to play and
8:02we want to play that part well and with
8:04a spirit of excellence. Which leads us
8:07to today. Those January words that you
8:10hear,
8:12those words SHOULD CALL US IN OVERALL
8:15pursuit of the Lord in knowing times and
8:20seasons of his presence. So today today
8:26we are going to revisit some of the
8:28words of the past and allow for Holy
8:33Spirit to come and bring alignment to us
8:39with a fresh wind of his spirit on these
8:43words. Amen.
8:44>> Amen. I bless you in JESUS NAME. WHY ARE
8:47we taking this time? Well, let's think
8:50about this.
8:52HAVE YOU EVER HAD A CAR THAT'S out of
8:53alignment?
8:56About four months ago, I got a new car
8:59and the new car I knew was just a little
9:01bit out of alignment.
9:03I could tell because why?
9:06Because the steering wheel shook.
9:09>> I could tell because why? Because when I
9:12should just naturally be going straight
9:15without any other influence, the car
9:18started to slightly carine into the
9:21other lane. I could tell because when I
9:24went to the car wash and had to get my
9:27wheel into that little track, the most
9:31scary thing you can possibly ever do
9:33sometimes, right? Cuz there's a giant
9:35sign that says, "We are not responsible
9:40for the damage." And you're like, "And
9:41at that, I left my engine in the pathway
9:46of the car wash." Right? Okay. So, I can
9:49tell my car is out of alignment BECAUSE
9:52WHEN I PUT MY TIRE IN A SET TRACK THAT
9:57HAS A SET DIRECTION, I PUT MY CAR IN
10:01NEUTRAL, WHICH MEANS IT'S NOT ABOUT MY
10:03GAS OR MY BRAKING. I AM ALLOWING THE
10:07MOVEMENT THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE
10:08HAPPENING WITH THE CAR CONTROL OVER THE
10:12CAR and move the CAR FORWARD. I CAN TELL
10:16I'M OUT OF ALIGNMENT WHEN I'M LOOKING at
10:19my steering wheel and the WHEEL IS
10:22TURNED, BUT SOMEHOW THE CAR IS PAINFULLY
10:25TRYING TO MOVE DOWN THE TRACK. I CAN
10:29TELL I'M OUT OF alignment
10:34because even when it should be moving
10:37forward for me, it should be easier for
10:40me. I'VE TAKEN MY HANDS OFF OF IT,
10:43SOMETHING THAT HAS SET ITSELF IN PLACE
10:47INSIDE OF ME IS actually having an
10:50influence THAT IT SHOULD NOT HAVE. AND
10:53ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY VEHICLE IS IN
10:57OPPOSITION TO THE ease and the grace of
11:00how it should be moving. THIS IS WHAT
11:03HAPPENS WITH US. WHEN WE ARE IN
11:05ALIGNMENT, there is an ease and a grace
11:09that moves. DOES THAT MEAN IT'S EASY?
11:12>> NO.
11:13>> DOES THAT MEAN IT'S EASY?
11:14>> NO.
11:15>> Does that mean it's easy?
11:18>> No. But what it means is that I can have
11:21faith and I can keep going because there
11:25is a grace moving with me to see this
11:29thing come to pass. All right, ARE YOU
11:32WITH ME THIS MORNING?
11:33>> SO LET'S LOOK AT THIS. WHY DO WE PRE
11:36revisit prophetic words?
11:391 TIMOTHY 1:18. THIS IS PAUL WRITING TO
11:42HIS SPIRITUAL SON TIMOTHY. Paul's
11:44writing and he's basically starting to
11:47give him instruction
11:49on how he is to operate in the church.
11:53So, first and second Timothy ARE
11:54PRACTICALS. SOMEBODY SAY PRACTICAL.
11:58>> IF YOU ARE SO HEAVENLY minded and THE
12:01WORD CANNOT INFLUENCE YOUR PRACTICAL
12:03LIFE,
12:05>> scripture says you are a resounding
12:07gong. YOU ARE A YOUR OWN VOICE IN an
12:11echo chamber that has no impact.
12:14You are a person who's sitting in a
12:18place where there is nothing that is
12:21influencing or impacting you and it's
12:23empty noise how you're living. So you've
12:26got to have
12:29practical instruction
12:32to match the very spiritfilled word of
12:35God. Amen. ONE OF OUR BIGGEST PASSIONS
12:38here in this church is that we WOULD NOT
12:40JUST BE A CHURCH THAT'S FILLED WITH HOLY
12:42SPIRIT, BUT THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT WOULD
12:44BE ACTIVE IN YOUR LIFE AND CHANGING YOUR
12:46LIFE. THAT THE DIVORCE RATE IN OUR
12:48CHURCH WOULD BE ALMOST NON-EXISTENT.
12:50THAT SUICIDE WOULDN'T HAVE A RIGHT TO
12:52EXIST IN OUR CHURCH. ADDICTION WOULDN'T
12:54HAVE A RIGHT TO EXIST IN OUR CHURCH.
12:56VIOLENCE WOULDN'T HAVE A RIGHT TO EXIST
12:58IN OUR CHURCH. BIPOLAR DISORDER,
13:01>> COME ON. CHRONIC DEPRESSION. SEE, ISN'T
13:05ALL DEPRESSION BOO?
13:10YOU DON'T HAVE A RIGHT TO EXIST IN OUR
13:12CHURCH BECAUSE IF THE SPIRIT COMES AND
13:16GIVES POWER TO us and partners
13:21with the FULLNESS OF THE BLOOD AND THE
13:23FULLNESS OF GOD THE FATHER,
13:25WE SHOULD BE WALKING and living in a
13:29place where our life looks different.
13:33>> Not just that we serve on two hours on a
13:35Sunday and plug out. Let me tell you
13:37this. Let me let me just break this down
13:40for you. THERE IS AN ATTACK THAT COMES
13:44ON believers not just in a season.
13:47[snorts] It just comes because this is
13:50how the enemy comes. BECAUSE ONE OF THE
13:52BEAUTIFUL POWERS OF BEING A believer is
13:54the fellowship
13:57of the believer. BEING IN FELLOWSHIP
14:00WITH OTHER BELIEVERS.
14:02GOING OUT TO LUNCH WITH ANOTHER
14:04BELIEVER. And I DON'T HAVE TO SAY, "CAN
14:07I EXPLAIN TO YOU MY CHURCH SERVICE?"
14:10I can just say, "WHAT ABOUT THAT TIME IN
14:12WORSHIP?" And then the person says,
14:14"What time?" And then we all go, "Uh."
14:17And then we all sing a song to each
14:18other from the sermon. And then we all
14:20laugh, and then we eat our chips and
14:22salsa,
14:24share our triple dipper,
14:26>> DRINK OUR DIET COKES OR OUR WATERS WITH
14:29LEMON, DEPENDING ON WHO WE ARE.
14:35And then the next week when we see each
14:36other, when we look at each other, WE
14:39GO, "AH, YOU'RE HERE. I'M HERE. CHIPS
14:42AND SALSA, DIET COKE FOR LIFE. I LOVE
14:46YOU."
14:48AND WE START TO SPEAK A LANGUAGE
14:51>> FROM IN HEART IN SPIRIT THAT DISRUPTS A
14:55LANGUAGE OF THE MIND. WHERE THE ENEMY
14:58TRIES TO TELL US IT WOULD BE BETTER for
15:02you to be alone than be in the
15:06fellowship of other believers. That is a
15:11lie. I bless you in Jesus name. AND THAT
15:14IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW BECAUSE IN THE
15:17COURSE OF YOUR LIFE,
15:19the enemy will come after you. It seems
15:22so scary. THIS IS CALLED PRACTICAL.
15:25SOMEBODY SAY PRACTICAL.
15:27SO THAT WHEN I'M OUT OF alignment
15:31and [snorts] I'm resistant
15:34and things SEEM TO BE GOING OFF TRACK, I
15:38DON'T TAKE THE ADDITIONAL bait of
15:39thinking, but if I go to church, they
15:43just won't understand me. Cuz that's
15:46what the enemy says.
15:48>> Now, I could really jump into this, but
15:50that's not where we're going today. So,
15:53we're going to put a bookmark on this.
15:55And let me just say this to you. Let me
15:58say it really plainly, church. If you
16:01want to have friends, this is the most
16:04simple lesson that all of humanity is
16:07taught. You have to be a
16:11>> friend. You want to develop a
16:14relationship, you want to know people,
16:16you have to get to know people.
16:21You just have to do that. Invite them to
16:24Chili's. Invite them to RH House. If you
16:27don't know online, we're really sorry
16:29cuz they have a lovely brunch on
16:31Sundays.
16:33Invite them TO COFFEE. DON'T JET out
16:36after service. But I just stand there
16:39and nobody talks to me. Go talk to
16:41somebody. But I'm shy. Ask for the grace
16:46of God to be on you so that this lie
16:51>> that nobody knows
16:54that YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE ISOLATED,
16:56that you're supposed to be alone so that
16:59that lie is extinguished and no LONGER
17:03HAS FUEL INSIDE OF YOU. YEAH, BUT YOU
17:06DON'T KNOW WHAT I THINK. YOU DON'T KNOW
17:08THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. YOU
17:10ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN
17:12THROUGH WHAT YOU'RE GOING THROUGH CUZ
17:13YOU'RE NOT TALKING TO ME. SO, YOU DON'T
17:16KNOW. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SEE UP HERE. YOU
17:19DO NOT KNOW MY STORY.
17:22>> YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH.
17:24YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT I'VE WALKED
17:25THROUGH. AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE
17:26WALKED THROUGH BECAUSE THE ENEMY SAYS,
17:28"MY PRECIOUS
17:30[laughter]
17:32[applause]
17:33[cheering]
17:35keep it.
17:37>> Don't let anybody got the ring. The ring
17:39of what? The ring of your story, your
17:42history, your past. My precious.
17:45[laughter]
17:48And now before you know it, you're in a
17:51cave abandoned.
17:54>> You're feeding yourself
17:57foul expired bread and food.
18:01>> You are withering away. And the promise
18:05is withering away. And the word is
18:08withering away because you were not
18:13meant to do this alone.
18:16>> Period.
18:18>> So, let's go. [applause]
18:20HERE WE GO. PAUL WRITING TO TIMOTHY.
18:22OKAY. 1 Timothy 1:18-20.
18:26THIS CHARGE I ENTRUST TO YOU, TIMOTHY,
18:29my child, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
18:33PROPHECIES previously made about you,
18:37that by them you may WAGE THE good
18:43warfare,
18:46holding faith AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE BY
18:50REJECTING THIS. SOME HAVE made a
18:52shipwreck of their faith. Among them
18:56among whom are [snorts] Himaeus and
18:59Alexander whom I handed over to Satan.
19:06>> That they may learn not to blasphe.
19:10What's he referring to? What did they
19:12blasphemy that they would be handed over
19:14to Satan? Go to the beginning of the
19:17verse. He says this,
19:21"In accordance with the prophecies
19:23previously made about you, that by them
19:26you wage good warfare, holding faith and
19:30a good conscience." Somewhere the two
19:33last gentlemen mentioned they went
19:35against the words that were spoken.
19:38And Paul is saying to Timothy, you have
19:42words that were spoken over you. These
19:45words are meant to be weapons.
19:47Understand this. Let's put this up. The
19:50prophetic words over our life, our
19:54family, our church
19:57are spiritual weapons. We can use them
20:01against the attack of the enemy. When we
20:05do not, if you're not paying attention,
20:09lock in right now. When we do not
20:12steward, meaning revisit, partner with,
20:16pray for these words, pray for them. Our
20:21spirit and our mind become open to a
20:24shipwreck of faith.
20:27To a shipwreck. Have you ever been IN A
20:29SHIPWRECK? Probably not,
20:32because we don't use ships as a major
20:34mode of transportation.
20:37Have you ever watched one of those shows
20:38where people get shipwrecked on an
20:40island?
20:42What happens?
20:44All sorts of chaos, doesn't it? What do
20:47they always do? We have to find a source
20:49of water
20:53to nourish us. We have to find a source
20:57of food to sustain us. We have to find a
21:00shelter to
21:03protect us.
21:06a shipwreck. The word shipwreck is used
21:08intentionally, quite literally, but it's
21:11also used figuratively for us to
21:15understand that when we take prophetic
21:18words and we categorize them as optional
21:22and we forget them and we don't think
21:24they're good enough because they didn't
21:26promise us the winnings of the lottery
21:28enough.
21:31Amen. Amen. we actually remove a weapon
21:36God wants to equip us with for a season.
21:39So hear me on this. I look at this room.
21:43I know many of you who have prophetic
21:45words over your life. My question is,
21:47how are you stewarding that word so that
21:50it is a weapon in this season so that
21:52you can move forward in the things of
21:54the Lord? WELL, I DON'T KNOW. I HAVEN'T
21:56REVISITED. WELL, HAVE YOU PRAYED ABOUT
21:57IT? HAVE YOU ASKED GOD ABOUT IT? HAVE
21:59YOU MET WITH THE FELLOWSHIP OF BELIEVERS
22:01ABOUT IT? ARE YOU TAKING IMMEDIATE
22:03ACTION ON IT? WELL, I DON'T KNOW. IF I
22:05GIVE YOU,
22:07a drill,
22:09A POWER DRILL, AND WE ARE TO BE BUILDING
22:13SOMETHING TOGETHER, AND YOU SHOW UP AND
22:17YOU DON'T HAVE THAT DRILL, AND YOU LOOK
22:20AT ME AND I HAVE MY DRILL AND YOU SAY TO
22:24ME, "PASTOR ANDY, CAN I BORROW YOUR
22:26DRILL?" I HAVE TWO OPTIONS.
22:30ONE, I SHARE IT and I cut down the
22:32impact of what I brought. Two, I say no
22:35and I leave you with nothing. Idleness
22:38in your hands and no fruit coming out of
22:41your life. HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE
22:44BEEN STEWARDING YOUR PROPHETIC WORD?
22:46Where is the fruit?
22:49>> You will have fruit in your life. You
22:52will have it and you will see
22:53breakthrough. It will be like a weapon
22:57that you brandish when the enemy comes
22:59against you and says, "YOU'LL NEVER DO
23:01THIS. IT WILL NEVER WORK OUT. There'll
23:03never be another. It will never COME
23:05YOUR WAY." BUMP THAT. FORGET THAT. I'VE
23:08GOT A WORD FROM THE LORD. YOU CAME TO
23:10THE WRONG PERSON, TO THE WRONG HOUSE. I
23:13BLESS YOU. I BLESS YOU. I BLESS YOU IN
23:15JESUS NAME. BECAUSE WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW
23:18IS THAT WHILE YOU WERE PLOTTING TO GET
23:21ME AWAY, I was in the fellowship of the
23:24believers. I was making a friend. I was
23:28sitting with the Lord. I was praying and
23:31contending. I was stewarding what was
23:33said over me. So you came at me with
23:37something so innocent, like a lie you've
23:40tried to say to me over and over and
23:42over again. I guess we'll never get
23:43ahead financially.
23:45I guess this is just the way it will
23:47always be.
23:50>> What did David say? But I come against
23:53you in the name
23:54>> of the Lord God of Israel. Okay, so we
23:57go on second 2 second 2 Timothy 4 1-2
24:01says this. This is later Paul starts the
24:05chapter and he says this. Now the spirit
24:08expressly says that in later times some
24:12will depart from the faith by devoting
24:15themselves to deceitful spirits and
24:19teachings of demons
24:21though or through the insincerity of
24:24liars whose consciousnesses
24:28not said correctly are seared.
24:32So here we have Paul opening
24:36this final moment and he says, "Hey,
24:40know this. The spirit expressly says,
24:44not I sensed it,
24:48>> not I got a dream that has some
24:50interpretation." That word expressly
24:53means there is a conviction of truth
24:56without deviation.
24:58I wonder this morning
25:01how connected you are to the conviction
25:04of Holy Spirit in your life because as a
25:08believer you should be growing
25:12in conviction.
25:14You should know right from wrong,
25:17holiness from unholiness.
25:20Conviction
25:21stays my hand from the trap of the
25:24enemy. Conviction also
25:28keeps me in alignment so I'm not
25:30fighting a resistant path as God is
25:33leading me forward. Conviction also
25:37gives you strategy.
25:39Conviction also gives you wisdom.
25:42Conviction also brings revelation to
25:46you. Conviction in the life of the
25:49believer is something we must steward
25:52and grow. The easiest way to grow your
25:56conviction is
25:59asking God to grow your conviction. You
26:04guys, it's not rocket science. It's not
26:07for just the mensa. It's not for the
26:09elite.
26:11It is for all men, slave nor free,
26:15Jew and Greek, the Gentiles, THE LOST,
26:19THE BARBARIANS. IT'S for everyone. and
26:22the book and the MIRACLES ARE DISPLAYED
26:25SO EVERYONE CAN read it and everyone can
26:28benefit and move forward. SO HE SAYS
26:31THIS, hey
26:33Timothy,
26:35the spirit says
26:37that there will be a time when people
26:40will be departed from their faith
26:43because they're not going to be devoted
26:44to the right things. He's reminding him
26:48that there are those who may even be
26:50older than him, more wise than him, more
26:55seasoned than him. But it's not about
26:59necessarily how they live. It is about
27:03what the spirit says in the conviction
27:05of the spirit. Now, how they live should
27:07be a testimony. BUT KNOW THIS THAT YOU
27:11HAVE to continually grow this. THIS IS
27:14WHY THIS IS SO IMPORTANT BECAUSE PAUL'S
27:17SAYING IN LATER TIMES WHEN PEOPLE ARE
27:19MATURE IN THE BODY, THEY MAY STILL IF
27:21THEY ARE NOT stewarding this connection,
27:24this discipline,
27:26THERE ARE STILL WAYS THE ENEMY WILL
27:28PURSUE THE BODY CUZ HE wants to pick the
27:30lambs off from the shepherd. So this
27:33notion that I DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK AND
27:36GROW THIS OR revisit this is a lie.
27:39>> It's just a lie. I'll tell you how you
27:42can figure this out.
27:44Ask yourself right now, how has my
27:47capacity to love the person closest to
27:50me grown in the past month?
27:53>> Go ahead.
27:55Ask the Lord right now. Grade yourself.
27:58Rate yourself. Not where's it at, not am
28:01I getting an A or a B. How has it grown?
28:05How has it matured? How has it expanded?
28:10because you should be able to be
28:12growing. That's what God wants for you.
28:15Because when we stop growing over time,
28:19the propensity for us to get out of
28:22alignment grows and grows and grows and
28:25grows. How do I know this? Because I
28:28bought a new car.
28:31And when it was out of alignment, I was
28:33so frustrated. Why was I so frustrated?
28:37Because years ago, I owned a 1995
28:41Sundance.
28:44>> It was teal.
28:47It was the greatest car ever made. It
28:50did not meet a pothole in Michigan. It
28:52could not maneuver through. It did not
28:54meet a Michigan winter it could not be
28:56sustained through. This was God's car.
29:02But guess what? God's car was worn down.
29:06just by time and experience. God's car
29:10didn't have everything brand new under
29:12the hood. And God's person Annie didn't
29:16have the Cattle of a Thousand Hills to
29:18upgrade God's car with all new stuff
29:22under the hood. What did that mean? That
29:24meant that no matter how many times I
29:26got the alignment fixed, because of how
29:29long the car had been going, and because
29:31I had not renewed what was underneath
29:33the hood, the car still had a propensity
29:37to pull itself out of alignment. Well,
29:39does that just mean if you're old, it's
29:40out? Do you didn't hear what I was
29:42saying? The call of the Lord is to
29:45continuously pursue and renew and
29:48steward what God has given you. GROW ME,
29:52GOD.
29:54MATURE ME, GOD. Increase me, GOD. WE GO
29:57ON 1 TIMOTHY 4:12-16. LET NO ONE DESPISE
30:01YOU FOR YOUR YOUTH, BUT SET THE
30:03believers an example in speech and
30:04conduct in love and faith and purity
30:07until I come. DEVOTE YOURSELVES TO
30:09PUBLIC READING OF SCRIPTURE TO
30:10EXHORTATION TO TEACHING. Do not NEGLECT
30:16NEGLECT BY JUST LETTING IT BE. NEGLECT
30:18BY NOT STEWARDING, NEGLECT BY NOT
30:20growing it. ARE YOU WITH ME? DO NOT
30:24NEGLECT. LOOK AT YOUR NEIGHBOR. SAY,
30:25DON'T NEGLECT.
30:27>> SAY IT LOUDER. DON'T NEGLECT.
30:29>> DON'T NEGLECT.
30:30>> You guys are so good. [applause]
30:34Do not neglect the gift you have
30:37which was given you by prophecy when the
30:43council of elders laid their hands on
30:45you. Practice these things. Immerse
30:48yourself IN THEM SO THAT ALL MAY SEE
30:50YOUR PROGRESS. KEEP A CLOSE WATCH ON
30:53YOURSELF AND ON THE TEACHING. PERSIST IN
30:55THIS for by doing so you will save both
30:58yourself and your hearers. So understand
31:00this. LET'S PUT IT UP. The prophetic
31:02words
31:04releases gifts in you
31:08>> that you did not previously have. What?
31:12>> WHAT?
31:14>> ME A GROWN ADULT PERSON. I AM NOT THE
31:17QUEEN, the king of my LIFE WITH
31:21EVERYTHING INSIDE OF ME THAT I NEED TO
31:23BE AWESOME. I just have a couple of
31:25things and I go to church because when I
31:27was a KID I DID. YOU GUYS, THAT'S
31:29[screaming] A LIE. THAT IS A LIE. THERE
31:32ARE GIFTS GOD WANTS TO GIVE YOU. WHEN
31:34YOU'RE SEVEN, WHEN YOU'RE 12, WHEN
31:36YOU'RE 35, WHEN YOU'RE 80, WHEN YOU'RE
31:4080, [laughter] when you're 42 AND YOU
31:43HAVE THE PRESSURES OF THE WORLD, GOD HAS
31:45THINGS TO give you and activate in you
31:49that can only come through his word
31:53and then the confirmation at times of
31:55the laying han of hands of elders. So
31:59understand this. You have
32:03you have gifts that are in you that you
32:06did not previously have or was not
32:08previously activated. You have to
32:10practice the gift, steward it, learn,
32:14grow, develop in faith. There should be
32:18fruit. No fruit equals a withering word.
32:24No fruit equals the intent and the
32:28impact of the word is coming to its
32:31expiration date.
32:37We read this and an example of this in
32:40Daniel chapter 9. In Daniel chapter 9,
32:45we're coming to the end of a 70-year
32:48prophecy.
32:49And we read this in Daniel 9 1-4. And in
32:53the first year of Darius, the son of
32:55Asserus by descent of Made, who was made
32:59king over the realm of the Calaldanss,
33:01in the first year of his reign, I Daniel
33:05perceived in the books the number of
33:07years that according to the word of the
33:09Lord to Jeremiah the prophet m must pass
33:14before the end of the desolations of
33:16Jerusalem, namely 70 years. Daniel
33:18saying, I Daniel went back. I looked at
33:23the timeline. I paid attention to the
33:26timeline of what was prophesied and I
33:29connected with the fact that the
33:31timeline was coming to an end. Let me
33:34ask you, do you know the timeline of
33:36God's promises? Well, aren't some of
33:38them forever? Yes and amen.
33:42Can they wither IF I DON'T STEWARD THEM?
33:46>> Do you own plans?
33:50anything living. How good are your
33:53plants doing thriving in your house? We
33:55went to Vivian and Tim Sakowsky's house
33:57yesterday and I was put to shame by how
34:01thriving her plants were. She's growing
34:03two pineapples in her house in like a
34:05pot. So,
34:10I have one snake plant in my house
34:13that I water every two months. And every
34:16time I do, I say, "I'm sorry."
34:20And then I don't do anything until two
34:22months later when I go, "Here's the half
34:24of my water bottle that I'm giving you
34:26again. You're welcome, buddy. I'm
34:28sorry." Right. Okay.
34:32The seed that God planted, it takes
34:35work. Yeah.
34:38>> Do you hear what I'm saying?
34:39>> It just takes work. But praise God, he
34:42gives you a seed to work with.
34:45>> Praise God, he's planted a seed inside
34:47of you. Praise God, there's a prophetic
34:49word sitting on you that he has gifts.
34:52What gifts of what? Praying for the
34:53sick, maybe. Also, what about like
34:55wisdom? What about strategy? What about
34:58favor? What about God actually
35:00downloading skill sets and understanding
35:02to you at a really literal way that you
35:04don't know? like you're not good at
35:05math. You don't think God didn't create
35:07math. He holds it all in his hands. He
35:11is the giftgiver. He can't download that
35:13to you. All of you in here who are in
35:15junior high in high school and you have
35:16to sit painfully through church
35:17sometimes.
35:19[laughter]
35:20I'm with you in spirit. I see you. You
35:23mean you can't be asking God, give me
35:25the gift. Help me understand. Give me
35:28the gift of memory. Help me know. That's
35:31something that I asked for the Lord for.
35:32I didn't have a great memory when I was
35:34a kid. I didn't have a great memory when
35:35I was in college. I didn't have a great
35:36memory when I was in high school. I
35:39needed and wanted a great memory as a
35:40preacher.
35:42I asked God for it. He gave the gift to
35:44me. No, you just like took vitamins. I
35:47did not.
35:49Don't tell me what I did and didn't do.
35:51I did not do that. You watch an online
35:54TED talk and you like created things.
35:56No. No, I didn't. Actually, I didn't do
36:00any of that.
36:02You started working out more. Did not
36:03drink more water. Absolutely not. I
36:06can't even give water to my plant, let
36:08alone myself. I did not do that. Okay.
36:13My memory grew. My memory expanded
36:16supernaturally because God gave a word
36:19over me
36:20>> that I would move in revelation. That I
36:23would be able to connect to all people.
36:25That I would be able to cross boundary
36:27lines. You know how you can't do that?
36:29IF YOU CAN'T remember their name,
36:33>> WHEN YOU CALL THEM BUDDY, GUESS WHAT
36:35THEY WANT TO DO? POP YOU IN THE FACE.
36:37CUZ NO GROWN ADULT WANTS TO BE CALLED
36:39BUDDY.
36:42Especially not somebody WHO EVENTUALLY
36:44IS GOING TO CROSS THOSE LINES AND help
36:45usher them to the feet of the King of
36:47Glory so he can change AND TRANSFORM
36:48THEIR LIFE. GOD, YOU GAVE ME A WORD. I
36:52NEED THE GIFT. GOD, YOU GAVE IT TO ME. I
36:55NEED IT. DOWNLOAD IT. We go on. We read
36:58this.
37:00He says, "Then I turned my face to the
37:02Lord God, seeking him by prayer and
37:05pleas for mercy. With fasting and
37:08sackcloth and ashes, I pray to the Lord
37:11my God, and make confession, SAYING, "OH
37:13LORD, THE GREAT AND AWESOME GOD, WHO
37:15KEEPS COVENANT AND STEADFAST LOVE WITH
37:18THOSE WHO love him and keep his
37:20commandments." Listen, Daniel knew
37:24that time was running out and he made a
37:28choice to not sit in passivity over the
37:32word. He knows this because Jeremiah 25
37:3411-12 says this, "THIS WHOLE LAND SHALL
37:37BECOME RUIN and waste and these nations
37:40shall ser shall serve the king of
37:42Babylon 70 years. Then after
37:4770 years are completed, I will punish
37:50the king of Babylon and that nation.
37:53Daniel knew the prophecy that Jeremiah
37:56gave had a time stamp on it. HE KEPT
38:00TRACK. HE PAID attention to it. He had a
38:03choice to make. This is a CHOICE EVERY
38:06ONE OF US ARE making whether you know it
38:07or not. HE HAD THE CHOICE TO MAKE. WAS
38:10HE GOING TO let the word expire
38:14and just see? Well, if God wanted to, he
38:17would.
38:23Well, I KNOW I'M OVER HERE doing nothing
38:26about this.
38:29SO IF GOD WANTED TO, this word he's
38:33spoken over me, HE WOULD JUST WHOOSH
38:37come in and magically MOVE IN MY HOME.
38:41YOU GUYS,
38:43I if I could, I would hold in a holy
38:46way, I would slap you and say, "Wake up.
38:49Wake up. Come on.
38:52>> WAKE UP. YOU WANT GOD TO COME IN LIKE A
38:56FAIRY.
38:57YOU WANT HIM TO COME IN LIKE A MAGICIAN.
39:00>> YOU WANT HIM TO COME IN WITH MAGIC DUST,
39:04BUT WHEN IT COMES TO PRAYING, YOU can
39:07give him like 30 seconds while you're in
39:09the shower. When it comes to worship,
39:12you give yourself the luxury of saying,
39:14"That's not my thing."
39:19When it comes to fellowshipping women's
39:22ministries, I hate women's ministries
39:23cuz I went to one once and all they did
39:25was talk about bunk cakes. OH MY GOSH,
39:28GET OVER IT. YOU'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME.
39:33[applause]
39:34BUT YOU DON'T KNOW. YOU DON'T KNOW THAT
39:36I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE YOU DON'T TALK TO
39:38ME. BECAUSE THE ENEMY'S GOT YOU ISOLATED
39:42THINKING THE WORD'S GOING TO POOF
39:44MAGICALLY HAPPEN in your life AND YOU
39:47ARE NOT partnering and COLLABORING WITH
39:49IT. SOMEBODY FINALLY I BLESS YOU IN
39:52JESUS NAME. [applause]
39:56So what happens?
39:58Daniel
40:00does not passively allow the timing to
40:02expire.
40:03>> Do you hear me? Some of YOU SHOULD PULL
40:05OUT YOUR PHONE, pull out your note pad
40:08that you're not writing notes in, and
40:10you need to write down, stop being
40:13passive.
40:15>> Do not let passivity tell you your
40:18value.
40:20>> Do not let passivity tell you how God
40:23should be working in your life. You got
40:26to write that down. Can you say it
40:28again? I cannot. You can watch the
40:31replay
40:34and not be passive.
40:37Daniel aligns himself WITH GOD'S WORD
40:40AND GOD'S timing and Daniel begins to
40:43repent
40:46for turning for the turning of the
40:48people. You we don't we haven't read
40:50this but let me tell you what happens.
40:52Daniel repents for the turning of the
40:53people. Daniel repents for generational
40:56transgression. That word transgression
40:58means generally it means this to cross
41:02moral and spiritual boundaries acting
41:06willfully in rebellion.
41:09Well, I'm not acting IN REBELLION. ARE
41:11YOU PARTNERING WITH THE WORD?
41:14ARE YOU PARTNERING WITH WHAT GOD HAS
41:16SAID TO YOU? Or are you holding the word
41:19like a test of God's faithfulness?
41:22To speak against the hear me to speak
41:25against the word of God over your life
41:27is partnering with a spirit of
41:29rebellion.
41:30To speak against it in complaining.
41:36>> Ouch.
41:38>> To speak against it in disillusionment.
41:41>> But how are we supposed to process our
41:42feelings?
41:44Okay. I Okay. Okay.
41:48But to process my feelings doesn't mean
41:51that I dig down into the pit of cursing
41:55myself and cursing God's blessing and
41:57cursing the people around me and I vomit
41:59it all out
42:01and then I walk away until later I
42:04decide to be like a dog returning to its
42:06own vomit and consume it again and then
42:08wonder why I'm exhausted and tired and
42:10worn out. Are you with me today?
42:14>> Practical. Somebody say practical.
42:17This is practical. Okay, we go on.
42:21Daniel says this prayer.
42:24He says this. He repented for not
42:26believing or obeying the prophets. Then
42:28he asked God to listen to their pleas.
42:31He asked God to shine his face and favor
42:34on them.
42:36He revisits the word in his prayer
42:39and he says to him, "We are called your
42:44city and your people." We finish this
42:47and in Daniel 9:20 through 23, we read
42:50how God responds. Says, "While I was
42:53speaking," this is Daniel talking,
42:55"Confessing my sin." Can somebody just
42:57say the word confess?
42:59>> Confess.
42:59>> You know why I have you say it? So it
43:01feels comfortable coming out of your
43:02mouth. So later you don't feel so out of
43:05alignment and resistant to saying to
43:08God, I'm going to confess this now to
43:10pull myself in alignment. Okay. While I
43:13was speaking and praying, confessing my
43:15sin and the sin of my people Israel, and
43:18presenting my plea before the Lord my
43:20God for the holy hill of my God, while I
43:23was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel,
43:26is he referring to a real man? No, he is
43:29referring to the angel Gabriel who
43:32appeared to him formerly in the form of
43:33a man. The man ga Gabriel whom I had
43:36seen in the vision at the first came to
43:39me in swift flight.
43:42That's how we confirm it was an angel
43:44because have you ever met a man that has
43:47swift flight?
43:49No is the answer. Okay, great. YOU HAVE
43:53NOT.
43:54IT'S WITH LIGHT at the time OF THE
43:56EVENING SACRIFICE. VERSE 22, he made me
43:59understand, speaking with me and saying,
44:01"OH DANIEL,
44:03I HAVE NOW COME OUT to give you insight
44:08and understanding." Somebody say,
44:10"Amen."
44:12>> At the beginning of your pleas for
44:13mercy, a word went out.
44:18Can you just underline this? Because
44:20this is an equation that we're reading
44:23in scripture.
44:25At the moment, Daniel repents for
44:28rebellion against the word,
44:31[snorts]
44:32repents for the behavior
44:34that has had to usher in this delay,
44:37this 70 years. The moment Daniel looks
44:40and stewards the word, let's put this in
44:42the positive. You have a word over your
44:45life. I'll pick somebody in the room
44:47that I know their word that God said to
44:49you.
44:52If it's in your hands but not on your
44:53heart, I don't want you to work with it.
44:57How do I partner with that?
45:00God, I repent now for any place where I
45:03have valued my own intellect over what
45:06you have placed on my heart, increase
45:09me, grow me. Any place where I have been
45:11in rebellion, do I have to use the rebel
45:13the word rebellion? Why do you care?
45:16Yeah, you do. Go for it. Why? Because
45:18it's in the Bible. Did you write the
45:20Bible? No. Do you have some book you
45:22wrote on like all your dreams coming
45:25true that God has spoken to you? You do
45:27not. So, yeah, we're following the word.
45:30Why? So, I can confess and sever myself
45:33with a spirit that's calling me out of
45:34alignment. Period. I bless you now.
45:37Bless you. Bless you. Come on now. Yeah,
45:40I see you twice. Thank you.
45:44I repent for being in rebellion against
45:47that. Grow my capacity. Make me
45:49sensitive in heart. I'm going to get
45:51inner healing. I'm going to get two
45:52inner healings. I'm going to get three
45:53inner healings. I'm going to go to men's
45:54group. I'm going to listen to this music
45:56that talks about the heart. I'm going to
45:58be worshiping. I'm going to be getting
45:59this stuff done. I'm going be getting up
46:01early in the morning. Early in the
46:02morning, I place the pieces of my heart
46:04before you, Lord, on the altar. And I
46:06wait for your fire to fall. I'm going to
46:07be calling this out. Why? because you
46:09declared that my heart would be the
46:11gateway of the fruit of my hands. So
46:14God, I'm going to put myself in
46:16alignment WITH THAT. NOW, THE SECOND
46:18THAT word goes out, the scripture says,
46:23my question to you is this.
46:26Are you SENDING WORD OUT ACROSS the
46:29heavens in your prayer life and you're
46:31contending over your prophetic destiny?
46:34Is the Are the heavens stirring
46:38>> over what God has spoken over you? ARE
46:41THE HEAVENS BIDDING, I'LL GO. NO, YOU
46:44GO. NO, I WANT TO GO. NO, YOU GO. OH,
46:46GABRIEL, YOU WON. ARE they contending
46:51to come and help usher in what God has
46:56spoken over you? Goes on and it says
46:58this.
47:06Oh Daniel,
47:08I have come out to give you insight and
47:09understanding. At the beginning of your
47:10place for mercy, a word went out and I
47:13have come to tell it to you. For you are
47:15greatly loved. Therefore, consider the
47:18words. Understand the vision. The angel
47:21goes on. He gives Daniel a detailed
47:2570week strategy. He tells him week by
47:28week. 70 weeks, my friends. 70 weeks
47:34he tells him and in this week this will
47:36happen and in the third week this will
47:38happen. Okay. Why is this important?
47:41Because now because Daniel has done the
47:44work contended with his word, Daniel is
47:47in alignment. So he understands the
47:50playbook. Write it down. When I'm in
47:53alignment, I understand the playbook.
47:56He has time to plan with strategy.
48:00He has the insight to fortify his faith
48:04and make the physical moves he needs to.
48:08Daniel understood the playbook because
48:11Daniel went into alignment because
48:13Daniel looked at the word, saw that the
48:16word was withering and going to expire
48:18and Daniel said, "No, no, no. I'm going
48:21to do something about this." So, let me
48:23transition now. That's your charge.
48:27Let's talk through some things God has
48:28spoken to us over this year. Are you
48:31ready?
48:33>> In 2026, in January, we said 2026 will
48:37be the year of the great release or the
48:39gold rush. Send for the architects of
48:42the future. Send for the revival. Send
48:44for the mighty rushing wind. He's got
48:47unfinished business. We made these five
48:50statements. This will be the year of
48:52second chances. Somebody say amen.
48:54>> Amen. The year of personal obedience.
48:58>> Okay. The year of a personal awakening.
49:02>> Okay. The year of true revival.
49:06>> The year of generational salvation.
49:10>> Amen. Now, THINK ABOUT THE YEAR. THINK
49:13ABOUT WHERE YOU ARE. THINK ABOUT WHAT
49:15YOU'RE CONTENDING FOR. THINK ABOUT WHAT
49:17GOD'S BEEN DOING IN OUR CHURCH. THINK
49:19ABOUT WHAT WE'VE BEEN SEEING.
49:22GOD,
49:23get me in alignment with what you've
49:25spoken. Pull me in alignment with what
49:28you've spoken. Four things we said in
49:29our church. Come on, I bless you in
49:31Jesus name. We said four phrases. Let's
49:35see who remembers. Then all of a sudden,
49:39have we not seen this in our house?
49:41>> Have we not seen God move in suddenly in
49:43our house?
49:45>> We specifically said there'll be a time
49:47of miracles.
49:49There'll be a time of extended worship.
49:52that this will not be an introduction.
49:54This is an interruption, an
49:56intervention, and God is interjecting a
49:58miracle. Then all of a sudden, Acts 2:2,
50:03and suddenly there came from heaven a
50:04sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it
50:06filled the entire house. Number two, we
50:09said this. Oh,
50:18>> okay. I just want to say
50:21See how hard it is
50:24>> to just belt it out ac cappella
50:27>> with nobody leaving you.
50:29>> You're welcome. [laughter]
50:34Acts 1:14.
50:36All these with one accord were devoting
50:38themselves to prayer
50:40together with the women and Mary the
50:43mother of Jesus and his brothers. Here
50:45we are. We're in a season now of prayer
50:48and fasting. We have something happening
50:50before a church called saturate where
50:52we're inviting those who are Where's
50:54Vicki at?
50:56>> Go stand up Vicki. She's like no. Okay,
50:59fine. We've asked Vicki to be one of our
51:02leaders, the main leader of this time.
51:04You can go ahead sit down. That that
51:06this would be a time where we are
51:08saturating this space so that when you
51:11come in, you're not like, I wonder if I
51:14love God today. BUT YOU ARE walking into
51:16the active presence of God. SO WHEN YOU
51:20BRING YOUR FRIENDS, YOU GO, I JUST WANT
51:22YOU TO KNOW WHEN WE WALK in the door,
51:24there will be miracles.
51:26>> There will be cuz THE ROOM'S ALREADY SET
51:29for it. Number three,
51:33he's got unfinished business. Let me
51:37tell you, you want to contend for
51:38anything in your life, this is what you
51:40need to be leaning into. How many would
51:42you say we are out of alignment? I will
51:44be in alignment with that right now that
51:45he's got unfinished business. Let me see
51:47your hand. I'm going to be contending
51:49for this. He's got unfinished business.
51:51Isaiah 46:10, declaring the end from the
51:54beginning and from the ancient times,
51:55things not yet done, saying, "My counsel
51:57shall stand and I will accomplish all
52:02my purpose." Number four, you got to be
52:07in the room where it happens. in the
52:10room wear it.
52:12>> Okay.
52:14This year, God is placing a priority on
52:17the power of gathering together. There
52:19is a call and a conviction,
52:23urgency and haste coming on the body of
52:25Christ, to be in the church, to be in
52:29the place where we are gathering. a
52:31hunger for his presence that will lead
52:34to the strong man broken.
52:37>> And a new day of his authority being
52:40released in God's glory.
52:42>> Amen.
52:43>> Acts 2:1 in the NLT says this. And on
52:46the day of Pentecost,
52:48all the believers were meeting together
52:50in one place.
52:54And then all of a sudden,
52:59>> I'm going to have Pastor James come.

53:04going to take you into
