We're 32 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 4: raising up a family in Pitchburgh. We're raising up a 33 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 4: family in Texas that don't just know about God. 34 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 5: They know God. 35 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 4: They've handled his power, they've seen his power flow through it. 36 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 4: You're coming out of here today carrying fresh fire, fresh unknowing. 37 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 4: Take never to take another backward step. 38 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 5: Praise Gun. I want to show you. 39 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 4: Something in Isaiah fifty eight Isaiah fifty eight six new living. 40 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 4: Now you do, King James, glad to have you Texas, 41 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 4: looking forward to seeing you soon. Is not this the fast? 42 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 4: By the way, if you're here for the first time, 43 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 4: I'm not mentally insane. We have a second church in 44 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 4: Texas that is watching right now by scream. Is not 45 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 4: this the fast that I have chosen to loose the 46 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 4: bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to 47 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 4: let the oppress go free, and that ye break every yoke. 48 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 4: Seven is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, 49 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 4: and that they'll bring the. 50 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 5: Poor that are cast out of the house. 51 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 4: So this is kind of a to Israel because they 52 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 4: were fasting food, but they weren't helping poor people or anything. 53 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 4: So you can't substitute the one thing for the other. 54 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 4: Giving to the poor. Helping people that are in need 55 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 4: is not a substitute for pray and fasting. And pray 56 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: and fasting doesn't alleviate your responsibility to do the other 57 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 4: things Christ commanded you to do. Then He's gonna tell 58 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 4: you when you add all these things together, what happens 59 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 4: when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him, and 60 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 4: that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh. 61 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 5: Then shalt thy light. 62 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 4: When you fast and pray properly, then shall your light 63 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 4: break forth as the morning, And then health shall spring 64 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 4: forth speedily. Father, give brother Tony agility back there. Don't 65 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 4: let the stage take him out. 66 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 5: Don't let that. 67 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: Stage push you around, brother Tony, And that health shall 68 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 4: spring force speedily, and thy righteousness shall go before thee, 69 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 4: and the glory of the Lord shall be your It 70 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 4: says here rear ward. That's rear guard, like God's God's 71 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 4: glory will be what protects wherever you go. 72 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 5: So look at that. 73 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 4: Then shout thy light break forth as the morning, and 74 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 4: thy health shall spring forth speedily, and You're righteousness shall 75 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 4: go before you. 76 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 5: Fasting in prayer causes. 77 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 4: A supernatural breaking out of God's power in your life. 78 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 4: You have a division needlessly in the body of Christ 79 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 4: where people they like eating, so they knock fasting in 80 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 4: prayer like it's something that doesn't need to be done. 81 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 4: It's all through the Bible. Then if they do it, 82 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 4: they say, you don't have to do it more than 83 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 4: three days. People went on long fast in the Bible. 84 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: Daniel went on a twenty one day fast. Put up 85 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 4: Daniel chapter ten, verse seven NLT. Let me see if 86 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 4: I'm close Daniel ten to seven, NLT. Only I Daniel 87 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 4: saw this vision. The men with me saw nothing, but 88 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 4: they were suddenly terrified and ran away. 89 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 5: To hide verse eight. So I was left there all 90 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 5: alone to see this amazing vision. My strength left me. 91 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 5: My face grew. 92 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 4: Deathly pale, and I felt very weak. Then I heard 93 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 4: the man speak, and when I heard the sound of 94 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 4: his voice, I fainted and lay there with my face 95 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 4: to the ground. Just then a hand touched me and 96 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 4: lifted me, still trembling, to my hands and knees. And 97 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 4: the man said to me, Daniel, you are very precious 98 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 4: to God. Now, unless your name's Daniel, I don't want 99 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 4: you to say Daniel, but I want you to say 100 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 4: your name. 101 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 5: Go ahead, everybody at once say I'm very precious to God. 102 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 4: If you have a view that God's looking over the 103 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: balcony of heaven and he's ticked off at you. 104 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 5: And you know, they'll help fortify that. 105 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 4: At many churches, how many know we all sin every day, 106 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 4: we all displease God. You're gonna find there's lots of 107 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,799 Speaker 4: people that God talked to from heaven that he wasn't 108 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 4: displeased with him. He said, have you noticed, my servant job, 109 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 4: that he's a perfect man, upright in all his ways, 110 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 4: that he hates what's evil and does what's good. So 111 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 4: I don't feel anything when I go to those churches. 112 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 4: I can't fit in. I mean, know, we all even 113 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 4: if we don't know what we're doing things right now 114 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 4: that displease God's Like, buddy, I'm standing here, so if 115 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 4: this displeases God, then he should just kill me, because 116 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 4: I'm not doing anything except breathing. No, there's people in 117 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 4: the Bible God was displeased with. But there's also people 118 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 4: in the Bible, many of them that God let. 119 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 5: The Bible says in Hebrews eleven. 120 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 4: They received God's approofal because of their faith. So you 121 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 4: can live in a way that God goes. Everybody in 122 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 4: the world's not wicked. I like that guy, and then 123 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 4: you're gonna find when God likes him. 124 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 5: He sent an angel. Hey, God want me to send 125 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 5: you a message, Daniel. He likes you a lot. 126 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 4: And then, Daniel, you're very precious to God. Listen carefully 127 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 4: to what I have to say to you. Stand up 128 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 4: for I've been sent to you. When he said this 129 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 4: to me, I stood up, still trembling. Then he said, 130 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 4: don't be afraid. Everybody said, don't be afraid, Daniels. Now, 131 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 4: if you're driving cartel boats in the Gulf of Mexico, I'd. 132 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 5: Be a little afraid. But if you're living right, you 133 00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,239 Speaker 5: don't have to be afraid. 134 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 4: Since the first day you began to pray for understanding 135 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 4: and to humble yourself before your God. Your request has 136 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 4: been heard in heaven. When was his request heard? 137 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 5: What day? First day? 138 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 4: So fasting in prayer that we're about to enter into 139 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 4: tomorrow is not trying to get God into a Brazilian 140 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 4: jiu jitsu hauled to release an answer the God answers. 141 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 5: The Bible says, if. 142 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 4: Any man lacks wisdom or anything else, James one ask 143 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 4: of God and he'll give you liberally. He won't resent 144 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 4: your asking. So God's not the problem. Anytime you go 145 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 4: to a church and they talk like you've got some big, 146 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 4: dumb slow God, you know we're doing all we can. 147 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 5: We just don't know about God's timing. 148 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 4: No, Daniel, from the first day you began to pray, 149 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 4: I was sent with your answer. But thirteen, for twenty 150 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 4: one days, the spirit Prince of the Kingdom of Persia 151 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 4: plocked my way. 152 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 5: See that's what got me thinking. 153 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,239 Speaker 4: I was studying on this to preach, and I thought 154 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 4: I was watching on Twitter or x all the people celebrating, 155 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 4: and there's tons of passes in Venezuela and Christians, but 156 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 4: they all had to meet like in burrowed out places 157 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 4: under the house.

Twenty twenty six 174 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 4: is a year that we make the devil paid back 175 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 4: everything that he stole. But for twenty one days the 176 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 4: spirit Prince of the Kingdom of Persia blocked my way. 177 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 4: Then Michael, one of the archangels came to help me, 178 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 4: and I left him there with the spirit Prince of 179 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 4: the Kingdom of Persia. Daniels fastened for an answer. God 180 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 4: gives him the answer. That angel is going to tell 181 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 4: him what he was searching out, and it's going to 182 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 4: start the process of the Jews getting free from captivity 183 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 4: in Babylon. What blocked the answer to the prayer wasn't God. 184 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 4: It's not it was I mean no, God just has 185 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 4: a plan. Sometimes, you know, we think we want something now, 186 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,599 Speaker 4: but he's saying wait. You ever know those people that 187 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 4: believe like that, wait their whole linge because they're stupid, 188 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 4: because it's not in the Bible. God is not a 189 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 4: slow god. God moves faster than the speed of light. 190 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 4: And he said, when you call on me, not I 191 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 4: might answer you. He never said, sometimes I say yes, 192 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 4: sometimes I say no, and sometimes I say wait. He said, 193 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 4: call on me, and I will answer you and show 194 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 4: you great and mighty things that you know.

For everyone that knocks, everybody 197 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 4: the door's open. Everyone that asks, they received, and everybody 198 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 4: that seeks out the answer. 199 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 5: They get what they're going So what was the delay? 200 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 4: Who blocked it? Spirit Prince of the King of Persion. 201 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 4: These aren't trick questions. 202 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 5: I'm not looking like throw people out of the auditorium. 203 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 4: The demonic principality that was over Persia, which is Iraq 204 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 4: and Iran, that was in charge of making sure cops 205 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 4: children stayed bound in that land. 206 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 5: When I was set with your answer, he blocked me. 207 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 4: But as you continued and fasting in prayer. Michael the 208 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 4: head brass knuckled angel, that's. 209 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 5: The head of warfare. 210 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 4: Lucifer was head of praison worship, Gabriel head of messaging 211 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 4: and communication. Michael ishead of the God's army. And when 212 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 4: you kept fastening praying God that it said like Gary 213 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 4: the Angel. 214 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 5: He said the head angel and said, go take. 215 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 4: Care of that spirit principality and make sure my boy 216 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: Daniel gets answer. Fasting in prayer is tapping into Heaven's power. 217 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: That causes what's delayed to get obliterated by Heaven's power. 218 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 4: You can spend your life doing two things. You can 219 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 4: wait and you come up with some kind of religious you. 220 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 5: Know, I'm just waiting on God. You know, in his timing. 221 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 4: Let me tell you something, brother, I'm forty five years old. 222 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 5: It feels like two days ago. 223 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 4: I was in high school, and anybody at sixty or 224 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 4: seventy would add on to my story. You'll feel like 225 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 4: about another two days and I'll be seventy. The Bible 226 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 4: says life is but a vapor. That's why you know 227 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 4: old me like or how I was trained in church. 228 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 4: When I see Venezuela coming open, we make a plan. 229 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 5: Maybe to go next year. You know, raise money, we 230 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 5: can have the kids sell sandwiches door to door. 231 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 4: I don't have any of that in the budget, but 232 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 4: I've been finding out all year. You don't have You 233 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 4: don't have to have your budget. There's a God that 234 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 4: wants things done on the earth. 235 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 5: And when you decide I want to do what. 236 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 4: God said, God commits all the resources. 237 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 5: Of heaven to back you wherever you'll go. 238 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 4: Now, the secret of understanding fasting in prayer is to 239 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 4: understand it's not punishment. 240 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 5: Daniel was on a fast. 241 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 4: If he'd gave up day sixteen, things were still being 242 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 4: fought out. We see from scripture the devil has nothing 243 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 4: in his arsenal that can withstand twenty one days of 244 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 4: fasting in prayer. 245 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 5: He can't do it. 246 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 4: There are things that break loose Isaiah fifty eight. 247 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 5: Then will your light break forth speedily? Late? We can't 248 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 5: shut all. 249 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 4: These lights off in here right quickly. No, if you 250 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 4: shut all the lights off, it's pitch black. If you 251 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 4: turn the light on, the light doesn't struggle to push 252 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 4: the darkness out. And then we put a second light on. 253 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 4: As soon as light appears, darkness is obliterated for free. 254 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 4: And the Bible says there's something when you constitute yourself 255 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 4: to fasting in prayer, that there's something that emanates from you. 256 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 5: Go to Mark chapter nine, Mark nine fourteen. Hallelujah. 257 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 4: I'm excited about Venezuela. 258 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 5: It'll be the. 259 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 4: Best meeting in Venezuela because it'll be the only one there. 260 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 4: Our choir will be the best one because it's the 261 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 4: only choir. When they returned to the other disciples, they 262 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 4: saw large crowd surrounding them, and some teachers of religious 263 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 4: law were. 264 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 5: Arguing with them. 265 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 4: When the crowd saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with ah 266 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 4: and they ran to greet him. What's all this arguing about, 267 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 4: Jesus asked one of the men in the crowds book 268 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 4: up and said, teacher, I brought my son so you 269 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 4: could heal him. He's possessed by an evil spirit that 270 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 4: won't let him talk. And whenever the spirit seizes him, 271 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 4: it throws him violently to the ground. 272 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 5: Then he foams at. 273 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 4: The mouth and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. 274 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 5: Can you guys up in the media room. 275 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 4: Find that guy whose brother was in the cartel in 276 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 4: New Mexico that had seizears and got healed, and then 277 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 4: just lash. 278 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 5: Me on the screen when you have it. 279 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 4: Whenever this spirit seizes him, it throws him violently to 280 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 4: the ground. Then he foams at the mouth and grinds 281 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 4: his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples 282 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 4: to cast out this evil. 283 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 5: Spirit, but they could not do it. 284 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 4: Now question, had Jesus already told the disciples that I 285 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 4: give you authority over all. 286 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 5: Sickness and all disease? 287 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 4: So you notice that the or you're going to notice 288 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 4: at the end of the chapter, Jesus doesn't say he 289 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 4: And by the way, what were you guys thinking, I've 290 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 4: never told you to do any of that. They actually 291 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 4: come up to him quite privately and say, why were 292 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 4: we unable to cast out the spirit? You told us 293 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 4: we have authority over all the power of the devil. 294 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 4: And then go back to verse fourteen, Mark nine to fourteen, 295 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 4: when Jesus, who is on the mount of Transfiguration, I 296 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 4: doubt he was eating pasta or a sandwich. So I 297 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 4: said that because even times when the Bible doesn't say 298 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 4: they're fasting, if they're in continent, you know, when Jesus 299 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 4: is praying and Elijah appears beside him and his face shines, 300 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 4: I don't think he's also like anybody got like a 301 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 4: buffalo chicken, say, and which they're not eating? They're praying 302 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 4: and the fast things implied. So Jesus is in a 303 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 4: special time of consecrated prayer, he comes down the mountain, 304 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 4: and what's the religious people in his disciples doing? They are, 305 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 4: what's the third to last word, arguing. So when you 306 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 4: don't carry power as a minister or a Christian, you 307 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 4: spend all your time arguing. You spend your time in 308 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 4: other people's YouTube comments, Facebook. 309 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 5: I don't think he should have done that. 310 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 4: If Jesus was ministering in twenty twenty six, there have 311 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 4: been comments on his Instagram did he really have to 312 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 4: spit in the blind man's eye? Kind of disrespectful to 313 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 4: the blind community, isn't it? 314 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 5: It'd have been all that. 315 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 4: I bet he walks on water because he can't swim. 316 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 5: So when you well, that joke went over better than 317 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 5: I thought. I think I thought that one. 318 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 4: Was like a C minus, But you guys liked it. 319 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 4: So when you when you don't won't carry power, you 320 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 4: have to spend your time telling people why they're not healed, 321 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 4: why things don't work. We don't understand I mean no, 322 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 4: God has a plan, we don't understand it. 323 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 5: Why don't you understand his plan? 324 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 4: It's in this leathern book about eleven hundred pages, and 325 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 4: he lays out the whole plan for you right there. 326 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 4: Do you know I have no qualms going to Venezuela 327 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 4: or I have the O? 328 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 5: Lord, would you like me to go Tewo? Peter three nine. 329 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 4: The Lord is not willing that anyone perish, so he's 330 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 4: giving more time for everyone to repent and be saved. 331 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,479 Speaker 5: So any minister always. 332 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 4: Has the blessing attached to them if they'll go out 333 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 4: and find people that are bound by whatever poverty, drugs, 334 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 4: suicidal thoughts and then you go and take that power. 335 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 5: And set the captive free. Can you say amen? 336 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 6: And three months to live. They told us on Wednesday 337 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 6: in the medical center that I was gonna die, and 338 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 6: something hit me and I stood up and I said, 339 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 6: let's have a great, big God, and I'm gonna live 340 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 6: or not die.

A week 354 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 6: later he walked in, this time to the Denimus CLINEX. 355 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 6: He took the chart to the floor and he said, 356 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 6: we can't find that heart attack, and we can't even 357 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 6: find the paperwork. He said, yeah, yeah, Now I'm in 358 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 6: the ministry and got through Oklahoma working with teens Hellon's 359 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 6: prison ministry, and got Sunday school for the whole church 360 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 6: on Sunday morning. And this man started it all right here. 361 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 6: And then the Good Lord change my line. 362 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 4: I know guys in Texas don't like hugging other guys, 363 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 4: but make an exception for me. 364 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 5: Love you, God bless. 365 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 4: And so if you don't do that, you argue. I 366 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 4: don't like Joel Hanstein, I don't like Palla Way. I 367 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,479 Speaker 4: don't like Jensen Franklin. I don't like the Pope. I 368 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 4: don't like ye who do you like? You live in 369 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 4: a house with one dog, and even the dog is 370 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 4: like in the other room, like this guy's a little 371 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 4: negative for me. So you turn into a bitter loser 372 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 4: when you have religion without the power of God. Read 373 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 4: Read if you want, read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, 374 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 4: and you're gonna find everywhere Jesus went to do miracles, 375 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 4: there were pharisees, and status says he's. 376 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 5: Standing there to see if he did it right. 377 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 4: You're not allowed the here on the Sabbath, and then 378 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:07,360 Speaker 4: Jesus would Jesus had like no problem with bar owners. 379 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 4: It wasn't a bunch of motorcycle gang members and drug 380 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: dealers that put Jesus. 381 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 5: On the cross. It was religious people that don't like 382 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 5: the power of God. 383 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 4: And nothing has changed in two thousand years. If you 384 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 4: want to have an uncontroversial ministry, don't cast out devils, 385 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 4: don't pray for the sick, don't help anybody that needs help. 386 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 4: But if you take the power of God and you 387 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 4: start to throw the devil, sorry rear end out of places, 388 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 4: all of Hell breaks loose to persecute you. 389 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 5: Because the devil can't stop you. He can only get. 390 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 4: You to get discouraged and be ashamed. But when you 391 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 4: receive God's power this month of January, You're going to 392 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 4: go out into a dark world with the light of 393 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 4: God and drive the devil out. The devil they used 394 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 4: to think he was going to take you out. 395 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 5: You're coming back in the power. 396 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,479 Speaker 4: Of God to take him out in Jesus' name. If 397 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 4: you believe that, can you shout Amen? Eighteen nine eighteen. 398 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 4: Whenever the spirit seizes him, it throws them violently to 399 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 4: the ground. Then he foams it at the mouth and 400 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 4: grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your 401 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 4: disciples to cast out the evil spirit, but they. 402 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 5: Could not do it. So come out of him, I said, 403 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 5: come out now, I'm good. You see people like that 404 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 5: with they're four year olds at the stores. You get overhear. 405 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 5: Come on, come on, Lilac. 406 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 4: Somebody say a word with me. Say authority, Jesus said 407 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 4: in Luke chapter ten. Behold, I give them to you 408 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 4: authority over all the power of the devil, so you 409 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 4: can have a thorny. 410 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 5: What would happen? 411 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 4: Does a police officer have authority over criminals? Yes, If 412 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 4: somebody's robbing of seven to eleven and he goes finds 413 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 4: out about what. 414 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 5: You're doing, lawyer you and for rood awakening, then then 415 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 5: nothing's gonna happen. 416 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 4: Because the officer that wears a badge as a sign 417 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 4: of his authority, that he's been deputized by the mayor 418 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 4: or whoever, the city council whatever to enforce the loss. 419 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 4: Then anyone that won't respect the badge. That's why you 420 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 4: have a gun. It's no different in the spirit room. 421 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 4: You have authority over how much of the power of 422 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 4: the devil. Jonathan, I heard you going to Africa. When 423 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 4: you go over there, you're gonna find there's like greater demons. 424 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 4: Great good to know I have authority, not over the 425 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 4: lesser ones. And then it's a struggle for the greater 426 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 4: Jesus dethroned the whole kingdom. Then where people get messed up. 427 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 4: This is why people start developing insane and stupid theologies 428 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 4: about healing. We prayed and they weren't healed to. I 429 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 4: guess it was their time. No, it's not the time. 430 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 4: You don't say that the Lord took someone. 431 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 5: Home when they're nine. 432 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,959 Speaker 4: You are making that whole family hate God. It's not 433 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 4: God that killed. It's the devil that comes to steal, 434 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 4: to kill, and to destroy it. But I have come 435 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 4: that you might have and have it? How more abundant overflow? 436 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 5: Now annoying?

Some of these 503 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 4: people teach that when you're not healed, its because you 504 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 4: didn't have enough faith. 505 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 5: Yes, one of them was Jesus. 506 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 4: Everybody's not overflowing in faith, and so I'm not saying 507 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 4: if you don't receive something, you didn't have enough faith. 508 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 4: But there are there's a reason the Bible gives explicit 509 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 4: commands to continually preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ because 510 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 4: faith comes by and hearing by How many have you 511 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 4: been coming to. 512 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 5: This church for at least two years? 513 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 4: How many you feel like you have more faith now. 514 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 5: Than when you can? 515 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, because you've been an intake. We're already two passages deep, 516 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 4: and in my mind, I'm in the introduction, but I 517 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 4: feel like it's certain to turn into the main message 518 00:25:58,920 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 4: we do word here. 519 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:00,959 Speaker 5: It's not just for you. Know. 520 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 4: I was at sheets today and I saw a hot 521 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 4: dog and I was thinking, how the bun represents God's 522 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: life wrapped around our life. No, everybody say the Bible. 523 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 4: Jesus said to him, you faithless people. So if faith, 524 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 4: if a lack of faith hinders God's power moving, then 525 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 4: how do you get more faith? There's only one way 526 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 4: scripturally that faith comes. You can't pray for it, you can't. 527 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 4: It comes by and hearing. By hearing the Bible makes 528 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,719 Speaker 4: an actual substance called faith rise up in your spirit. 529 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 4: You faithless people? How long must I be with you? 530 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 4: How long must I put up with you? Bring the 531 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 4: boy to me? Twenty So they brought the boy to Jesus. 532 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 4: But when the evil spirit sought Jesus. I preached on 533 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 4: this in the eight am service, and I'm going to 534 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 4: try not to get stopped here. 535 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 5: But this is powerful. Now think of this. 536 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 4: You had the twelve disciples come out of him, come 537 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 4: out of him, won't come out the kids still season. 538 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 5: Then Jesus walks towards the. 539 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,679 Speaker 4: Boy, and the demons start packing his suitcase. Before Jesus 540 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 4: ever says anything, the demon's. 541 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 5: Freaking out, seizing. 542 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 4: When the evil spirit saw Jesus, it threw the child 543 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 4: into a violent convulsion and he fell to the ground, 544 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 4: writhing and foaming at the mouth. How long has this 545 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 4: been happening, Jesus asked the boy's father. He replied, since 546 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 4: he was a little boy. The spirit often throws him 547 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 4: into the fire, into water, trying to kill him. Have 548 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 4: mercy on us and help us if you can now 549 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 4: listen how the guy talks. Obviously he doesn't have no faith, 550 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 4: or he wouldn't have even come to Jesus. He just said, 551 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 4: like I've heard about what that guy does. I don't 552 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 4: believe in any of that. If he's so good, how 553 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 4: come he has it? Come to my house and he'll 554 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 4: be He brought his boy to be healed, but he 555 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 4: he's fifty to fifty and the Bible says, a double 556 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 4: minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let not 557 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 4: that man expect to receive anything from God. That's why 558 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 4: you've never heard statements from this pulpit when we started 559 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 4: the church four years ago. Whether this church grows or not, 560 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 4: I'm just going to be faithful. No anything you're not 561 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 4: convinced of out of God's word, it won't work. 562 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 5: We're rolling dice. Maybe the church will grow, maybe it 563 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 5: won't grow. 564 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 4: But when you see that Jesus said I will build 565 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 4: my church and the gates of Hell will not prevail 566 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 4: against it, then it gives you faith that there's nothing 567 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 4: that can happen that can stop the growth of this church, 568 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 4: and so it grows. 569 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 5: This will be our last month in this building. 570 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 4: We move into the thousand plus Cedar all together in 571 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 4: February
