(213) “Hungry for More” with Dan and Marti Duke
Are you hungry for more of God? And if so, how do you respond?
After 20 years of pastoring and going to the nations, Dan and Marti Duke had their lives “interrupted by God” with a fresh hunger for Him like they had never experienced before. They share with the Busses things that they’ve learned about the connection between hunger and outpouring, being “touchable” by God, and what it looks like to respond to divine dissatisfaction as the manifestation of hunger for God.
There’s a new release of Glory coming on the earth! God is stirring us up again to be hungry for Him so that as we receive from Him and overflow to others, He can pour out of Himself on us and keep pouring!

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
many right now are diagnosing themselves as depressed or oppressed or sad or
2
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:13,720
discouraged or whatever. Yeah. Well,
3
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,760
if in reality you're just hungry,
4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:23,520
you've misdiagnosed yourself. So then you pursue your cure,
5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,520
your answer other places. But let me,
6
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,200
let me say to you that are all you who are listening,
7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,760
I want to diagnose you right now. Jesus Christ,
8
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,280
the Lord of glory has made you hungry for him.
9
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:50,320
God promises in Joel 2 28 to pour out his spirit on all humanity.
10
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,080
Welcome to global outpouring where we contend for that promise outpouring.
11
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:00,080
We equipped for that outpouring so that we may engage in that very outpouring.
12
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,280
I'm Philip bus and I'm Sharon bus. Welcome to the podcast today.
13
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,680
We have with us very, very dear friends of many years,
14
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,600
pastors, Dan and Marty Duke from Jacksonville, Florida, and many,
15
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,040
many places in the earth.
16
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,320
And we're going to talk about things that are so,
17
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:23,320
so important as we are moving into the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
18
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:25,920
That's increasing in the earth right now.
19
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,920
And we're going to learn from the things they have learned and what they're
20
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,120
seeing for the future.

So pastor Dan and pastor Marty, thank you so much for joining us today.
31
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,320
What a pleasure it is. Thanks for the opportunity.
32
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,040
You know, we go back quite a number of years.
33
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,040
Philip and I were engaged in your church and we met you.
34
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,040
I at least met you long before that.
35
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,040
And I don't want to take time with the past.
36
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:35,040
I want to talk about what God has done in your lives
37
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,040
and how he has taken you.
38
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,040
You pastored for a number of years.
39
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,040
You went to the mission field.
40
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,040
And then what happened?
41
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,040
Well, we went to the mission field.
42
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:57,040
We had been in, I guess, 50 different countries
43
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,040
and we fell in love with Brazil and we began to devote
44
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,040
all of our time and attention to that nation.
45
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,040
And we had been working there for about 10 years
46
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,040
when God interrupted our lives.
47
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,040
Yes, and then what happened?
48
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:22,040
We had the rare opportunity to be in revival meetings for weeks
49
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:29,040
and saturate and soak in the presence.
50
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:35,040
And it literally changed the whole trajectory of our ministry, of our lives.
51
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:40,040
We were so hungry before that.
52
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:47,040
And we still are hungry, but we were also in such need of a renewal.
53
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:52,040
And God gave us that because we had worked hard on the mission field
54
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,040
and it was glorious.
55
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,040
We had seen many things.
56
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,040
But I would have to say when you said we were a missionary,
57
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,040
then what happened?
58
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,040
That was the thing that happened that changed everything.
59
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,040
That's what I was fishing for.
60
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,040
Yes, I know.
61
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,040
Pastor Dan, what's your take on that?
62
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:16,040
Well, the most significant thing that happened was I learned,
63
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:21,040
actually I witnessed, and by what I witnessed I learned,
64
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,040
that it's possible to impart what you preach.
65
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:25,040
Amen.
66
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,040
That preaching alone, perhaps that's good,
67
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,040
I mean, we're commanded to preach the Word.
68
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:37,040
But if nothing is actually imparted, if it's only words,
69
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:42,040
if it's only doctrine, if it's only theology, if it's only opinion,
70
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,040
it doesn't really accomplish anything.
71
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:52,040
So we were privileged to encounter a man who could impart what he preached.
72
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:59,040
And I know that's simple to say, but for me it was life-changing.
73
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:06,040
That same man made a comment just in passing in his preaching.
74
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,040
And this was shocking to me in the simplicity.
75
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,040
Actually, I was a little embarrassed.
76
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,040
And this is what he said.
77
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:21,040
He said that whatever Jesus can do in you determines what he can do through you.
78
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:27,040
That if Jesus can touch you, he can touch others through your life.
79
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:34,040
And that again is something very, very simple, almost embarrassingly so.
80
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,040
But that was my prayer.
81
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,040
That was my hope.
82
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,040
At the point I'm describing to you,
83
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:45,040
Martin and I had been 20 years of ministry in many different nations,
84
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:50,040
hundreds of gospel meetings, hundreds of them.
85
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,040
And I had had years of seminary.
86
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,040
I'd never heard anything that profound and that simple.
87
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:04,040
That if Jesus could touch me, he could touch the nations through my life.
88
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,040
Amen.
89
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,040
If he can touch me.
90
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,040
And I don't need to elaborate and take a lot of time with this,
91
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:19,040
but then the implication was, at least the way I interpret it was,
92
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:24,040
that there are many people in churches, some their whole life,
93
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,040
sit in churches their whole life, but they're untouchable.
94
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,040
And it doesn't mean that he's incapable of touching them.
95
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,040
It means they simply have not yielded themselves
96
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,040
or see a value in a fresh touch of the Holy Spirit.
97
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,040
Right.
98
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,040
And I believe that's true.
99
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,040
I often talk about being hungry.
100
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:57,040
And for many years, that would be the way I would introduce a message
101
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,040
or start speaking.
102
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,040
I would kind of say, well, are you hungry?
103
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,040
Are you hungry tonight?
104
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,040
And of course, that's popular, to be hungry for God.
105
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,040
And it would always get a rousing response.
106
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:16,040
My next question, my second question was, well, can he touch you?
107
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,040
You know, you get a different response.
108
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:24,040
So Jesus wants to touch your life.
109
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,040
If I'm making a point, that's my point.
110
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,040
He wants to touch you.
111
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,040
Are you touchable?
112
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,040
That's a question.
113
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,040
Let's talk about what it means to be touchable.
114
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,040
Please, talk about it.
115
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,040
Talk about it.
116
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,040
I'll yield to my wife, Marty.
117
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,040
What does it mean to be touchable?
118
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,040
To be touchable?
119
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,040
I think it means that you're able to yield.
120
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:57,040
When His presence comes to me, my job is to drink it in, yield to it.
121
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:04,040
Let the presence of God come into me, fill me to a greater degree,
122
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:10,040
a greater measure, and let His presence do His work in me.
123
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:15,040
The Holy Spirit wants to come and change me and enlarge my heart.
124
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,040
I just need to yield to that.
125
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,040
I don't know how you explain how you yield.
126
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,040
But to me, if I'm worshiping, I'm doing more than singing a song.
127
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:34,040
I am drinking His presence into my life and totally yielding to the Holy Spirit.
128
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:39,040
And whether that looks fancy or not, I don't really care.
129
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,040
I just want Him.
130
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,040
I just want Him to come into me.
131
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,040
So I think that's the desperation that we have to have.
132
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,040
That's hunger.
133
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:54,040
And then you can't just close your heart and, you know, oh, good, God's in the room.
134
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,040
Well, it's not enough for Him to be in the room.
135
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,040
He needs to come fill me with His presence.
136
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:04,040
So whatever that looks like, it looks different to different people.
137
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,040
Drink it in, breathe it in, yield.
138
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,040
You are the air I breathe.
139
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,040
I'm going to breathe you in.
140
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,040
Exactly.
141
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,040
Exactly.
142
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:22,040
And I think that same revivalist said, can you drink enough to be filled?
143
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,040
Can you drink enough to overflow upon your neighbor?
144
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,040
Can you drink enough to overflow upon your region?
145
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,040
Can you drink enough to overflow on your state?
146
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,040
What about a nation?
147
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:38,040
So we have it all wrong many times.
148
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:44,040
We don't understand how important we are as carriers of the glory and of the presence.
149
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:48,040
We have to carry that.
150
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,040
That's right.
151
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,040
Marty said it.
152
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:57,040
You know, there's an old Pentecostal saying that says, it's better felt than tellt.
153
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,040
Some things are only by revelation.
154
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,040
But let me introduce this thought to you.
155
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:13,040
Everyone that we encounter, virtually, the Christians, if we ask them, are you hungry?
156
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,040
I mean, are you hungry for God?
157
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,040
The answer is always yes, virtually every time is yes.
158
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,040
But consider this.
159
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,040
Why are you hungry?
160
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,040
What's the source?
161
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,040
Where does your hunger originate?
162
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,040
Does a spiritual hunger originate with you?
163
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,040
Can I produce a hunger for God?
164
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,040
Well, those who are listening, that's a question for you.
165
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,040
You'll have to answer that for yourself.
166
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,040
But I'll give you my answer.
167
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:55,040
In my life, I've proven that I hunger as a natural man,
168
00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:00,040
and I hunger for everything other than Jesus.
169
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,040
Come on, somebody.
170
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,040
Come on.
171
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,040
Let's get honest.
172
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,040
Let's get honest.
173
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:08,040
And that also always gets a little response, like we have here.
174
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:14,040
No, I tell you, this is the conclusion, Phil, that I've arrived at.
175
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,040
That my hunger does not originate with me.
176
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:25,040
That the hunger that grips my life is a manifestation of the grace of God,
177
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:30,040
and it is, in fact, His invitation to pursue Him.
178
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,040
Beautiful.
179
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,040
How have I arrived at that?
180
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,040
Well, because of what Jesus said,
181
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:41,040
no man can come to the Son unless the Father draws him.
182
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:50,040
So as my hunger grips my life, I disavow myself of any part in that,
183
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,040
of creating that hunger.
184
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:57,040
I don't give myself any credit that I have any hunger for God
185
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,040
except what He initiates in my life.
186
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:05,040
The grace of God is so misunderstood.
187
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,040
Wow.
188
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:13,040
You know, I heard for so many years that the grace of God is God's unmerited favor.
189
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,040
Right.
190
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,040
Well, and perhaps it is, but that's not the definition.
191
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,040
That's not even a Bible definition.
192
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:27,040
The Bible definition of the grace of God is God's divine influence
193
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,040
influencing your life in a certain direction.
194
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,040
Beautiful.
195
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:37,040
No man can come to the Son except the Father influences him.
196
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:43,040
So that divine influence is translated into a hunger.
197
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,040
So He makes you hungry.
198
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,040
He starts the process, okay?
199
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,040
In everything in grace, everything in God, He starts the process.
200
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,040
Right.
201
00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:02,040
So He would like to make you hungry so He can respond to you.
202
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,040
Beautiful.
203
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,040
Yeah.
204
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:09,040
Hunger is, well, there's several things you know, we all know, that know the Bible.
205
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:15,040
We know there are several things the Bible says specifically that He responds to.
206
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,040
Faith, He responds to faith.
207
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,040
He responds to joy.
208
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,040
He responds to love.
209
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,040
There's a list of things.
210
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,040
Yeah.
211
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:35,040
But chiefly, the point is if by His grace He creates a hunger, initiates a hunger in your heart for Him,
212
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:39,040
He can then respond to you, okay?
213
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,040
So He starts the process by making you hungry so He can respond to you.
214
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,040
And what does He want to do?
215
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,040
He wants to save you.
216
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,040
But He doesn't save you to save you.
217
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,040
Right.
218
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,040
He saves you to fill you.
219
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,040
Beautiful.
220
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,040
Praise God.
221
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,040
He doesn't fill you to fill you.
222
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,040
He fills you so He can use you.
223
00:13:58,040 --> 00:13:59,040
Beautiful.
224
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,040
But He doesn't use you just to use you.
225
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,040
Yeah, come on.
226
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,040
He's not raising servants.
227
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,040
He's raising sons and daughters.
228
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,040
Amen.
229
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,040
But He uses you for His glory.
230
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,040
Amen.
231
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,040
Amen.
232
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,040
So He saves you for His glory and it starts with the hunger.
233
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,040
Beautiful.
234
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,040
So hunger is important, but it's not enough.
235
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,040
It's not enough.
236
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:30,040
I don't know how any of you here in the studio might be, but when I get hungry, I go looking for food.
237
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:31,040
Yeah, there you go.
238
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,040
Come on.
239
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,040
Come on.
240
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,040
So when I get thirsty, I go looking for a drink.
241
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,040
I don't just do nothing.
242
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:46,040
I hit the refrigerator or hit down to McDonald's or whatever.
243
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,040
But that's my point.
244
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,040
And I don't want to belabor the point or take too much time.
245
00:14:51,040 --> 00:15:02,040
But the point is the way I discern what the Spirit of God is doing and is releasing is by discerning what people are hungry for.
246
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:07,040
Because if I believe He made them hungry, then He made them hungry for something.
247
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,040
That's good.
248
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:17,040
And what we're seeing, what I'm seeing is people are not hungry for religion.
249
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,040
True.
250
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,040
Who would want that?
251
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,040
They're not hungry for church membership.
252
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:29,040
They're not hungry now to hear and just hear another sermon and go home the same way they came.
253
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,040
Come on.
254
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:35,040
So I'm giving you, I'm open for correction here.
255
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,040
No correction at all.
256
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,040
So what are people hungry for?
257
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,040
They're hungry for Him.
258
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,040
Exactly.
259
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,040
Yes.
260
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,040
Because only He can satisfy.
261
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,040
That's right.
262
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,040
So what's happening in the nations today?
263
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,040
What's happening in Brazil?
264
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,040
I'm not so sure about the U.S.
265
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,040
because Marty and I haven't spent much time in the U.S.
266
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,040
Really, our whole ministry has been international.
267
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:13,040
But all of our experience in the nation of Brazil in particular, we've been through been there through several distinct, powerful national moves of God.
268
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,040
But they always begin with someone who's hungry.
269
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,040
Amen.
270
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,040
Because He can respond.
271
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:20,040
Amen.
272
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,040
Amen.
273
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:26,040
Sometimes that ends up being a divine dissatisfaction with where you're at.
274
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,040
Yes.
275
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,040
You know, I like, like I'm feeling that myself.
276
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,040
Yes.
277
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:36,040
This dissatisfaction of, okay, I want to be someplace that I'm not.
278
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,040
I want to be, you know.
279
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,040
I want to have something I don't.
280
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,040
Yeah, that's it.
281
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,040
There's more.
282
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:44,040
Where's the more?
283
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,040
Where am I going to find it?
284
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,040
I've got to saturate.
285
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,040
And don't even know what it is.
286
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,040
Right. Right.
287
00:16:50,040 --> 00:17:02,040
You know, one final thing here about any medical doctor anywhere in the world would tell a patient, don't diagnose yourself.
288
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,040
Oh, this is good.
289
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:04,040
Right.
290
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,040
Yes.
291
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,040
They would all, they will tell you that.
292
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:18,040
Don't diagnose yourself because 99% of the time, if you diagnose your own infirmity, you're going to take the wrong medicine or the wrong cure.
293
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,040
And that could be fatal even.
294
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,040
Uh huh.
295
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:27,040
So, and Sharon, you brought this up, made me think about this.
296
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:32,040
Many right now are diagnosing themselves as depressed.
297
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,040
Oh, come on.
298
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,040
Yes.
299
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:39,040
Or oppressed or sad or discouraged or whatever.
300
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,040
Yeah.
301
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:47,040
Well, if in reality you're just hungry, you've misdiagnosed yourself.
302
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,040
That's good.
303
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:54,040
So then you pursue your cure, your answer other places.
304
00:17:54,040 --> 00:18:01,040
But let me say to you that are all you who are listening, I want to diagnose you right now.
305
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,040
Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory has made you hungry for him.
306
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,040
Amen.
307
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,040
You are not depressed.
308
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,040
Well, you may be.
309
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:09,040
You may be.
310
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,040
You may be.
311
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,040
But why?
312
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,040
Because you're not satisfied.
313
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,040
Why?
314
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,040
Because you're not fed.
315
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,040
Why?
316
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,040
Because you've not been hungry.
317
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,040
Okay, well, Jesus is making you hungry.
318
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,040
That's one thing this broadcast will do.
319
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Every place it goes, it'll make people hungry.
320
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,040
Amen.
321
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,040
Amen.
322
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:32,040
And so that whole point that you brought up, Sharon, about it.
323
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,040
First, you have the manifestation of dissatisfaction.
324
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,040
And that's where we can get our eyes in the wrong place.
325
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,040
Because we look at the lack instead of the fullness.
326
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,040
Okay.
327
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:53,040
And so if our eyes are focused on, oh, man, because I've been there many times, you know,
328
00:18:53,040 --> 00:19:02,040
looking at the lack instead of looking forward like Jesus endured the cross, despising the
329
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,040
shame.
330
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,040
Why?
331
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:11,040
Because his eyes were on the prize on the other side, the joy that was set before him.
332
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:18,040
And so don't misinterpret your dissatisfaction as a huge negative.
333
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:19,040
Right.
334
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:25,040
Don't just begin to press in to he who is the only one that can satisfy us.
335
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,040
And he will reveal, you know, there's more.
336
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,040
That's the whole thing.
337
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:35,040
We can't just get a portion and live in that portion.
338
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:40,040
That's how so many denominations were formed throughout history, right?
339
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,040
Very true.
340
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:47,040
They received a fresh portion, but then they never went beyond that.
341
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:52,040
And so they became satisfied in that and became religious in that.
342
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,040
Yeah, that's true.
343
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:58,040
And by the grace of God, what we're talking about, God is stirring us up again, you know,
344
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,040
because he's about to release something fresh.
345
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,040
He already is releasing it.
346
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,040
We've seen the evidence of that.
347
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,040
Yeah.
348
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,040
But even with a drop, I'm not going to be satisfied with the drop.
349
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:16,040
I want to go back to what I made reference to that I embraced way back in the 90s when
350
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:22,040
he began to freshly pour out on my life because I can remember my dissatisfaction.
351
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,040
I'd say, Lord, I love what I've seen.
352
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,040
I've been to so many nations and it's been wonderful.
353
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:35,040
And I've seen the blind eyes open and the deaf ears open and every dead raised.
354
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:41,040
I mean, we saw those with our own eyes, but I'm like, there's got to be more.
355
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,040
What about me?
356
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,040
What about me, Marty?
357
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:51,040
Not the multitudes, but I'm hungry for something more that I'm not seeing.
358
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,040
And he was so faithful.
359
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,040
He said, you just hold on because you're praying into this and you're going to receive
360
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,040
something fresh.
361
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,040
And I did.
362
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,040
And I remember that whole concept.
363
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:08,040
And first of all, I have to say that God, when he opens a door, there's a way to go
364
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,040
through the open door and it's sweet low.
365
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,040
As low as you can go through that door.
366
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:21,040
As a matter of fact, he gave me a mini vision one time about the door to the place called
367
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:28,040
Moore and kind of came out in a poem, but it was, I saw this door and through the door,
368
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:35,040
I saw this great light and it's big space was beyond the door, but the door was very
369
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,040
low.
370
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,040
And I perceived I had to crawl in on my face.
371
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:46,040
And then he showed me the whole principle of getting from where you are, leaving behind
372
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:51,040
where you are and going through the door to the place called Moore.
373
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,040
It required humility.
374
00:21:52,040 --> 00:22:00,040
We enter in weakness to every new phase of God, but that whole principle of how much
375
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,040
are you willing to drink of his process?
376
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,040
I think many get caught in a pattern.
377
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:11,040
They think, okay, we'll spend, get up an hour, spend an hour with the Lord and the word
378
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,040
or this or that, but we depend on the pattern.
379
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,040
And it's not a pattern that makes you hungry though.
380
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:24,040
It's just like being available all the time, not just in your morning devotions or whatever.
381
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:31,040
It's just like, Paul says, keeping your mind on, and Philippians, keeping your mind on
382
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:36,040
what's, what's, whoever is lovely, what's ever is true whatsoever is.
383
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,040
And we, I thought that's the key to renewed mind, right?
384
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,040
And that one verse, you know, but we don't, we kind of fall short of that.
385
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,040
At least I do.
386
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,040
And that's why the word is so important to us.
387
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:56,040
It is the light on our path and he guides us through these principles to go from glory
388
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,040
to glory.
389
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,040
And I think that's what we're all feeling.
390
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,040
Glory to glory.
391
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,040
There's a new release of glory coming on the earth.
392
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,040
I believe it with all my heart.
393
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,040
His presence is so strong.
394
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:18,040
I mean, just this morning we spent, you know, some time deep, deep in his presence and every
395
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:23,040
time it just overwhelms me and makes me realize I've got to drink more.
396
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,040
I've got, because I've got to have more capacity.
397
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,040
I need more capacity.
398
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,040
And then of course we can't damn up what he puts in us.
399
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,040
It needs to flow out, you know.
400
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,040
And we have to realize that he is limitless.
401
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,040
Yes.
402
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:47,040
And he is, he is working in us to expand us so that we can, we can process, we can let
403
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,040
more flow through us.
404
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,040
Yes.
405
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,040
You know, there's an, there's an increase.
406
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:56,040
It's a continual increase that we, that we have to anticipate from him and it's from
407
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:57,040
him.
408
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,040
And the grace is there to stretch.
409
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,040
Yes.
410
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,040
That's like the prayer.
411
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:08,040
I believe that I can't remember where it is, but that you would be filled with all the
412
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,040
fullness.
413
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:10,040
Yes.
414
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,040
Of Christ, of God in Christ Jesus.
415
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:16,040
So there's, look at how much more we need.
416
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,040
Right.
417
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,040
And he's limitless.
418
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,040
So we have to, we have to get it, get it into our heads that our spirits are limitless.
419
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,040
Right.
420
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,320
And our bodies may have limitations, but I think the more we yield to the spirit, even
421
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,040
our bodies will catch up.
422
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,040
That's a good thought to soar on.
423
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,040
Yeah.
424
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,040
Yeah.
425
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:39,040
In a particular time in my life, ministry, Marty's in mind, which we've already described
426
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:50,440
a 20 years of ministry and many, many, many nations and, and, um, was hungry.
427
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:57,120
So we encountered this gentleman and, and, and as I, as I, or we reflect back and constantly
428
00:24:57,120 --> 00:25:04,840
men mentioned a stranger, another man, God uses men, but we don't look to men.
429
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:10,800
Uh, the point is when you're hungry, when he makes you hungry, you acknowledge that
430
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:11,800
you're hungry.
431
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,400
You, and you admit, acknowledge that what you're feeling is his invitation.
432
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:21,080
It's his, he is calling you to his, to the table.
433
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,880
You're hungry, but you can't describe what you're hungry for because you've not tasted
434
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:25,880
it yet.
435
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:26,880
Oh, that's good.
436
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,960
And, but when you taste it, you know, what did, what did the apostle say?
437
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,400
This is that.
438
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:33,400
Yes.
439
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:34,400
Okay.
440
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:39,520
And this, this man, this preacher kept saying, you've got, you've got to be, boom, be more
441
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,120
hungry, be more hungry.
442
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:46,800
And I got so tired and aggravated with him because I just wanted to scream, well, I am
443
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,280
hungry and he'd say it again.
444
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:49,280
You got to be more hungry.
445
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,280
You got to be more hungry.
446
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:58,500
And that was frustrating to me because I didn't know how to be more hungry.
447
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:03,760
And he said, and all you have to do is yield, yield, yield.
448
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,120
And man, I got sick of him hearing him saying yield.
449
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:12,360
And, but I kept going to the meetings and, and got more hungry.
450
00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:17,360
But I came to a place where I just wanted to just interrupt him and say, man, I don't
451
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:19,600
know how to yield.
452
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:24,760
And, and, and right there, I said it out of, out of a frustration.
453
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,460
I don't know how to yield.
454
00:26:27,460 --> 00:26:30,840
And I thought, that's my problem.
455
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,400
I don't know how to yield.
456
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,400
How do I yield?
457
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:40,720
And the Lord spoke to me and he said, just yield.
458
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,160
Use the same word to define it.
459
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,000
I said, I said, but I don't, I'm trying.
460
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,800
He said, that's your problem.
461
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:54,320
You never received more from, he said, you never received more from me by trying harder.
462
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,720
You cannot say it again.
463
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:02,180
You can, you never received more from me by trying harder.
464
00:27:02,180 --> 00:27:05,400
You received more by yielding more.
465
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,040
I hope this helps somebody.
466
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,040
Yes.
467
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,520
Because I, I, what I yield, what I did, I yielded.
468
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:19,480
But what I meant, but what I understood, it meant surrender.
469
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,760
Stop the fight.
470
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,600
I didn't know I was fighting.
471
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:30,120
I didn't know I was resisting because I had made it a mental cerebral thing, you know,
472
00:27:30,120 --> 00:27:32,520
or something that I had to do.
473
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:39,640
Now what I'm saying to you and to the multitudes that'll hear this is, it's a mystery.
474
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,160
It's a mystery, but you can do it.
475
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,840
You can do it.
476
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:48,040
Jesus is who calls you will give you grace, but stop the fight.
477
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,040
Okay.
478
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,800
Stop looking at people, go to Jesus and just be honest with him.
479
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,400
Lord, I'm yielding.
480
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,840
I'm yielding.
481
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,820
I'm surrendering.
482
00:27:59,820 --> 00:28:06,040
If there was, if my trying harder would get more, I'd have more, but my trying harder
483
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,560
is not working.
484
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:08,560
Right.
485
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:14,440
My sacrifices are not producing what's, what's happening.
486
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:25,800
Once you come to that realization, that self realization, and basically you just, I'm done.
487
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,440
Jesus yielded and he gave up the ghost.
488
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,520
It's finished.
489
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:34,520
Yeah.
490
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:35,520
Yeah.
491
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,520
You can have that.
492
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,600
I can't give it to you, but you can have it.
493
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:46,440
So you take what's being said today to heart, talk to Jesus about it.
494
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,040
He's totally on your side.
495
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,540
He's not pressing you.
496
00:28:50,540 --> 00:28:51,760
He's not against you.
497
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:52,760
He's for you.
498
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,680
He loves you.
499
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,880
Maybe you just need to surrender.
500
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:57,880
Amen.
501
00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:58,880
Beautiful.
502
00:28:58,880 --> 00:28:59,880
Beautiful.
503
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:00,880
Beautiful.
504
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:01,880
Would you pray for our listeners?
505
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,440
Lord Jesus, we know who you are.
506
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,960
We know what you do.
507
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,500
We know what you give.
508
00:29:10,500 --> 00:29:16,320
You give yourself, you give life, you give righteousness, peace, joy.
509
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,800
And those are the things that we are truly hungry for.
510
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:26,600
So let us, Lord, those who are listening, let them lay aside all the things that they
511
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:32,560
think the way it should be, the way they've heard is going to be.
512
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:39,920
All of that, let's lay all of that aside and bow the knee of our heart to the Lord Jesus
513
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,560
and say this, Lord Jesus, you have made me hungry.
514
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:50,960
I renounce any sense of anything that I've done to create a hunger.
515
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,040
It's all from you.
516
00:29:53,040 --> 00:30:00,260
So Lord, I yield to you right now and I submit to the hunger that you put in my heart to
517
00:30:00,260 --> 00:30:02,080
do its work.
518
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:08,040
I praise you all, all for your glory, but I can't do it.
519
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,360
I quit trying right now.
520
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,640
I'm not trying anymore.
521
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:18,480
I'm believing that you have made me hungry, that you have called me to your table where
522
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,160
there's bread and wine and everlasting life.
523
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:28,120
So Lord, I lay down all the fight and I say, Lord, here I am in Jesus' name.
524
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,120
Amen.
525
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:30,120
Amen.
526
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:37,360
As a footnote to what we've been talking about and after that prayer, during the prayer,
527
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:43,560
John mentioned righteousness, peace and joy, that that's what the Lord wants to provide
528
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:44,920
for us.
529
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:50,200
And I was just thinking on the words of Jesus that it is the Father's good pleasure to
530
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:51,620
give us the kingdom.
531
00:30:51,620 --> 00:30:53,160
What is the kingdom?
532
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:58,840
Righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
533
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,160
That is the kingdom of God and it's within us.
534
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:03,680
He is within us.
535
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,520
His kingdom is being built within us.
536
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:14,960
So I just had to share that because that's contrary to what many people are eating today
537
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:22,480
with depression and anxiety and so many things that they're thinking they have to have in
538
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:23,480
their lives.
539
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:31,320
No, it is the Father's good pleasure to give you through Jesus the kingdom of God, righteousness,
540
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,520
peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
541
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:34,520
Amen.
542
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:35,520
The oil of gladness.
543
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:36,520
Yes.
544
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,520
Amen.

And God bless you with this overwhelming loving presence.
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
many right now are diagnosing themselves as depressed or oppressed or sad or
2
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:13,720
discouraged or whatever. Yeah. Well,
3
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,760
if in reality you're just hungry,
4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:23,520
you've misdiagnosed yourself. So then you pursue your cure,
5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,520
your answer other places. But let me,
6
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,200
let me say to you that are all you who are listening,
7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,760
I want to diagnose you right now. Jesus Christ,
8
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,280
the Lord of glory has made you hungry for him.
9
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:50,320
God promises in Joel 2 28 to pour out his spirit on all humanity.
10
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,080
Welcome to global outpouring where we contend for that promise outpouring.
11
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:00,080
We equipped for that outpouring so that we may engage in that very outpouring.
12
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,280
I'm Philip bus and I'm Sharon bus. Welcome to the podcast today.
13
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,680
We have with us very, very dear friends of many years,
14
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,600
pastors, Dan and Marty Duke from Jacksonville, Florida, and many,
15
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,040
many places in the earth.
16
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,320
And we're going to talk about things that are so,
17
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:23,320
so important as we are moving into the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
18
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:25,920
That's increasing in the earth right now.
19
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,920
And we're going to learn from the things they have learned and what they're
20
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,120
seeing for the future.
21
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,000

So pastor Dan and pastor Marty, thank you so much for joining us today.
31
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,320
What a pleasure it is. Thanks for the opportunity.
32
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,040
You know, we go back quite a number of years.
33
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,040
Philip and I were engaged in your church and we met you.
34
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,040
I at least met you long before that.
35
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,040
And I don't want to take time with the past.
36
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:35,040
I want to talk about what God has done in your lives
37
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,040
and how he has taken you.
38
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,040
You pastored for a number of years.
39
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,040
You went to the mission field.
40
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,040
And then what happened?
41
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,040
Well, we went to the mission field.
42
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:57,040
We had been in, I guess, 50 different countries
43
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,040
and we fell in love with Brazil and we began to devote
44
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,040
all of our time and attention to that nation.
45
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,040
And we had been working there for about 10 years
46
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,040
when God interrupted our lives.
47
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,040
Yes, and then what happened?
48
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:22,040
We had the rare opportunity to be in revival meetings for weeks
49
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:29,040
and saturate and soak in the presence.
50
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:35,040
And it literally changed the whole trajectory of our ministry, of our lives.
51
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:40,040
We were so hungry before that.
52
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:47,040
And we still are hungry, but we were also in such need of a renewal.
53
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:52,040
And God gave us that because we had worked hard on the mission field
54
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,040
and it was glorious.
55
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,040
We had seen many things.
56
00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,040
But I would have to say when you said we were a missionary,
57
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,040
then what happened?
58
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,040
That was the thing that happened that changed everything.
59
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,040
That's what I was fishing for.
60
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,040
Yes, I know.
61
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,040
Pastor Dan, what's your take on that?
62
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:16,040
Well, the most significant thing that happened was I learned,
63
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:21,040
actually I witnessed, and by what I witnessed I learned,
64
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,040
that it's possible to impart what you preach.
65
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:25,040
Amen.
66
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,040
That preaching alone, perhaps that's good,
67
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,040
I mean, we're commanded to preach the Word.
68
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:37,040
But if nothing is actually imparted, if it's only words,
69
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:42,040
if it's only doctrine, if it's only theology, if it's only opinion,
70
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,040
it doesn't really accomplish anything.
71
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:52,040
So we were privileged to encounter a man who could impart what he preached.
72
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:59,040
And I know that's simple to say, but for me it was life-changing.
73
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:06,040
That same man made a comment just in passing in his preaching.
74
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,040
And this was shocking to me in the simplicity.
75
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,040
Actually, I was a little embarrassed.
76
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,040
And this is what he said.
77
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:21,040
He said that whatever Jesus can do in you determines what he can do through you.
78
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:27,040
That if Jesus can touch you, he can touch others through your life.
79
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:34,040
And that again is something very, very simple, almost embarrassingly so.
80
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,040
But that was my prayer.
81
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,040
That was my hope.
82
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,040
At the point I'm describing to you,
83
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:45,040
Martin and I had been 20 years of ministry in many different nations,
84
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:50,040
hundreds of gospel meetings, hundreds of them.
85
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,040
And I had had years of seminary.
86
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,040
I'd never heard anything that profound and that simple.
87
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:04,040
That if Jesus could touch me, he could touch the nations through my life.
88
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,040
Amen.
89
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,040
If he can touch me.
90
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,040
And I don't need to elaborate and take a lot of time with this,
91
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:19,040
but then the implication was, at least the way I interpret it was,
92
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:24,040
that there are many people in churches, some their whole life,
93
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,040
sit in churches their whole life, but they're untouchable.
94
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,040
And it doesn't mean that he's incapable of touching them.
95
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,040
It means they simply have not yielded themselves
96
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,040
or see a value in a fresh touch of the Holy Spirit.
97
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,040
Right.
98
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,040
And I believe that's true.
99
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,040
I often talk about being hungry.
100
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:57,040
And for many years, that would be the way I would introduce a message
101
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,040
or start speaking.
102
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,040
I would kind of say, well, are you hungry?
103
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,040
Are you hungry tonight?
104
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,040
And of course, that's popular, to be hungry for God.
105
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,040
And it would always get a rousing response.
106
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:16,040
My next question, my second question was, well, can he touch you?
107
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,040
You know, you get a different response.
108
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:24,040
So Jesus wants to touch your life.
109
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,040
If I'm making a point, that's my point.
110
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,040
He wants to touch you.
111
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,040
Are you touchable?
112
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,040
That's a question.
113
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,040
Let's talk about what it means to be touchable.
114
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,040
Please, talk about it.
115
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,040
Talk about it.
116
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,040
I'll yield to my wife, Marty.
117
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,040
What does it mean to be touchable?
118
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,040
To be touchable?
119
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,040
I think it means that you're able to yield.
120
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:57,040
When His presence comes to me, my job is to drink it in, yield to it.
121
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:04,040
Let the presence of God come into me, fill me to a greater degree,
122
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:10,040
a greater measure, and let His presence do His work in me.
123
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:15,040
The Holy Spirit wants to come and change me and enlarge my heart.
124
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,040
I just need to yield to that.
125
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,040
I don't know how you explain how you yield.
126
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,040
But to me, if I'm worshiping, I'm doing more than singing a song.
127
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:34,040
I am drinking His presence into my life and totally yielding to the Holy Spirit.
128
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:39,040
And whether that looks fancy or not, I don't really care.
129
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,040
I just want Him.
130
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,040
I just want Him to come into me.
131
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,040
So I think that's the desperation that we have to have.
132
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,040
That's hunger.
133
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:54,040
And then you can't just close your heart and, you know, oh, good, God's in the room.
134
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,040
Well, it's not enough for Him to be in the room.
135
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,040
He needs to come fill me with His presence.
136
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:04,040
So whatever that looks like, it looks different to different people.
137
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,040
Drink it in, breathe it in, yield.
138
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,040
You are the air I breathe.
139
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,040
I'm going to breathe you in.
140
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,040
Exactly.
141
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,040
Exactly.
142
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:22,040
And I think that same revivalist said, can you drink enough to be filled?
143
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,040
Can you drink enough to overflow upon your neighbor?
144
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,040
Can you drink enough to overflow upon your region?
145
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,040
Can you drink enough to overflow on your state?
146
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,040
What about a nation?
147
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:38,040
So we have it all wrong many times.
148
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:44,040
We don't understand how important we are as carriers of the glory and of the presence.
149
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:48,040
We have to carry that.
150
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,040
That's right.
151
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,040
Marty said it.
152
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:57,040
You know, there's an old Pentecostal saying that says, it's better felt than tellt.
153
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,040
Some things are only by revelation.
154
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,040
But let me introduce this thought to you.
155
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:13,040
Everyone that we encounter, virtually, the Christians, if we ask them, are you hungry?
156
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,040
I mean, are you hungry for God?
157
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,040
The answer is always yes, virtually every time is yes.
158
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,040
But consider this.
159
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,040
Why are you hungry?
160
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,040
What's the source?
161
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,040
Where does your hunger originate?
162
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,040
Does a spiritual hunger originate with you?
163
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,040
Can I produce a hunger for God?
164
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,040
Well, those who are listening, that's a question for you.
165
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,040
You'll have to answer that for yourself.
166
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,040
But I'll give you my answer.
167
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:55,040
In my life, I've proven that I hunger as a natural man,
168
00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:00,040
and I hunger for everything other than Jesus.
169
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,040
Come on, somebody.
170
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,040
Come on.
171
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,040
Let's get honest.
172
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,040
Let's get honest.
173
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:08,040
And that also always gets a little response, like we have here.
174
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:14,040
No, I tell you, this is the conclusion, Phil, that I've arrived at.
175
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,040
That my hunger does not originate with me.
176
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:25,040
That the hunger that grips my life is a manifestation of the grace of God,
177
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:30,040
and it is, in fact, His invitation to pursue Him.
178
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,040
Beautiful.
179
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,040
How have I arrived at that?
180
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,040
Well, because of what Jesus said,
181
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:41,040
no man can come to the Son unless the Father draws him.
182
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:50,040
So as my hunger grips my life, I disavow myself of any part in that,
183
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,040
of creating that hunger.
184
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:57,040
I don't give myself any credit that I have any hunger for God
185
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,040
except what He initiates in my life.
186
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:05,040
The grace of God is so misunderstood.
187
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,040
Wow.
188
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:13,040
You know, I heard for so many years that the grace of God is God's unmerited favor.
189
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,040
Right.
190
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,040
Well, and perhaps it is, but that's not the definition.
191
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,040
That's not even a Bible definition.
192
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:27,040
The Bible definition of the grace of God is God's divine influence
193
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,040
influencing your life in a certain direction.
194
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,040
Beautiful.
195
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:37,040
No man can come to the Son except the Father influences him.
196
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:43,040
So that divine influence is translated into a hunger.
197
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,040
So He makes you hungry.
198
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,040
He starts the process, okay?
199
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,040
In everything in grace, everything in God, He starts the process.
200
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,040
Right.
201
00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:02,040
So He would like to make you hungry so He can respond to you.
202
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,040
Beautiful.
203
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,040
Yeah.
204
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:09,040
Hunger is, well, there's several things you know, we all know, that know the Bible.
205
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:15,040
We know there are several things the Bible says specifically that He responds to.
206
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,040
Faith, He responds to faith.
207
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,040
He responds to joy.
208
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,040
He responds to love.
209
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,040
There's a list of things.
210
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,040
Yeah.
211
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:35,040
But chiefly, the point is if by His grace He creates a hunger, initiates a hunger in your heart for Him,
212
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:39,040
He can then respond to you, okay?
213
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,040
So He starts the process by making you hungry so He can respond to you.
214
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,040
And what does He want to do?
215
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,040
He wants to save you.
216
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,040
But He doesn't save you to save you.
217
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,040
Right.
218
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,040
He saves you to fill you.
219
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,040
Beautiful.
220
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,040
Praise God.
221
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,040
He doesn't fill you to fill you.
222
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,040
He fills you so He can use you.
223
00:13:58,040 --> 00:13:59,040
Beautiful.
224
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,040
But He doesn't use you just to use you.
225
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,040
Yeah, come on.
226
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,040
He's not raising servants.
227
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,040
He's raising sons and daughters.
228
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,040
Amen.
229
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,040
But He uses you for His glory.
230
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,040
Amen.
231
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,040
Amen.
232
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,040
So He saves you for His glory and it starts with the hunger.
233
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,040
Beautiful.
234
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,040
So hunger is important, but it's not enough.
235
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,040
It's not enough.
236
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:30,040
I don't know how any of you here in the studio might be, but when I get hungry, I go looking for food.
237
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:31,040
Yeah, there you go.
238
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,040
Come on.
239
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,040
Come on.
240
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,040
So when I get thirsty, I go looking for a drink.
241
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,040
I don't just do nothing.
242
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:46,040
I hit the refrigerator or hit down to McDonald's or whatever.
243
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,040
But that's my point.
244
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,040
And I don't want to belabor the point or take too much time.
245
00:14:51,040 --> 00:15:02,040
But the point is the way I discern what the Spirit of God is doing and is releasing is by discerning what people are hungry for.
246
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:07,040
Because if I believe He made them hungry, then He made them hungry for something.
247
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,040
That's good.
248
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:17,040
And what we're seeing, what I'm seeing is people are not hungry for religion.
249
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,040
True.
250
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,040
Who would want that?
251
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,040
They're not hungry for church membership.
252
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:29,040
They're not hungry now to hear and just hear another sermon and go home the same way they came.
253
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,040
Come on.
254
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:35,040
So I'm giving you, I'm open for correction here.
255
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,040
No correction at all.
256
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,040
So what are people hungry for?
257
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,040
They're hungry for Him.
258
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,040
Exactly.
259
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,040
Yes.
260
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,040
Because only He can satisfy.
261
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,040
That's right.
262
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,040
So what's happening in the nations today?
263
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,040
What's happening in Brazil?
264
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,040
I'm not so sure about the U.S.
265
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,040
because Marty and I haven't spent much time in the U.S.
266
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,040
Really, our whole ministry has been international.
267
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:13,040
But all of our experience in the nation of Brazil in particular, we've been through been there through several distinct, powerful national moves of God.
268
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,040
But they always begin with someone who's hungry.
269
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,040
Amen.
270
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,040
Because He can respond.
271
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:20,040
Amen.
272
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,040
Amen.
273
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:26,040
Sometimes that ends up being a divine dissatisfaction with where you're at.
274
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,040
Yes.
275
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,040
You know, I like, like I'm feeling that myself.
276
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,040
Yes.
277
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:36,040
This dissatisfaction of, okay, I want to be someplace that I'm not.
278
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,040
I want to be, you know.
279
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,040
I want to have something I don't.
280
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,040
Yeah, that's it.
281
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,040
There's more.
282
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:44,040
Where's the more?
283
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,040
Where am I going to find it?
284
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,040
I've got to saturate.
285
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,040
And don't even know what it is.
286
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,040
Right. Right.
287
00:16:50,040 --> 00:17:02,040
You know, one final thing here about any medical doctor anywhere in the world would tell a patient, don't diagnose yourself.
288
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,040
Oh, this is good.
289
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:04,040
Right.
290
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,040
Yes.
291
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,040
They would all, they will tell you that.
292
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:18,040
Don't diagnose yourself because 99% of the time, if you diagnose your own infirmity, you're going to take the wrong medicine or the wrong cure.
293
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,040
And that could be fatal even.
294
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,040
Uh huh.
295
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:27,040
So, and Sharon, you brought this up, made me think about this.
296
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:32,040
Many right now are diagnosing themselves as depressed.
297
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,040
Oh, come on.
298
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,040
Yes.
299
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:39,040
Or oppressed or sad or discouraged or whatever.
300
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,040
Yeah.
301
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:47,040
Well, if in reality you're just hungry, you've misdiagnosed yourself.
302
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,040
That's good.
303
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:54,040
So then you pursue your cure, your answer other places.
304
00:17:54,040 --> 00:18:01,040
But let me say to you that are all you who are listening, I want to diagnose you right now.
305
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,040
Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory has made you hungry for him.
306
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,040
Amen.
307
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,040
You are not depressed.
308
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,040
Well, you may be.
309
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:09,040
You may be.
310
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,040
You may be.
311
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,040
But why?
312
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,040
Because you're not satisfied.
313
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,040
Why?
314
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,040
Because you're not fed.
315
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,040
Why?
316
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,040
Because you've not been hungry.
317
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,040
Okay, well, Jesus is making you hungry.
318
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,040
That's one thing this broadcast will do.
319
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Every place it goes, it'll make people hungry.
320
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,040
Amen.
321
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,040
Amen.
322
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:32,040
And so that whole point that you brought up, Sharon, about it.
323
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,040
First, you have the manifestation of dissatisfaction.
324
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,040
And that's where we can get our eyes in the wrong place.
325
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,040
Because we look at the lack instead of the fullness.
326
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:45,040
Okay.
327
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:53,040
And so if our eyes are focused on, oh, man, because I've been there many times, you know,
328
00:18:53,040 --> 00:19:02,040
looking at the lack instead of looking forward like Jesus endured the cross, despising the
329
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,040
shame.
330
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,040
Why?
331
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:11,040
Because his eyes were on the prize on the other side, the joy that was set before him.
332
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:18,040
And so don't misinterpret your dissatisfaction as a huge negative.
333
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:19,040
Right.
334
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:25,040
Don't just begin to press in to he who is the only one that can satisfy us.
335
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,040
And he will reveal, you know, there's more.
336
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,040
That's the whole thing.
337
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:35,040
We can't just get a portion and live in that portion.
338
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:40,040
That's how so many denominations were formed throughout history, right?
339
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,040
Very true.
340
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:47,040
They received a fresh portion, but then they never went beyond that.
341
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:52,040
And so they became satisfied in that and became religious in that.
342
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,040
Yeah, that's true.
343
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:58,040
And by the grace of God, what we're talking about, God is stirring us up again, you know,
344
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,040
because he's about to release something fresh.
345
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,040
He already is releasing it.
346
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,040
We've seen the evidence of that.
347
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,040
Yeah.
348
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,040
But even with a drop, I'm not going to be satisfied with the drop.
349
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:16,040
I want to go back to what I made reference to that I embraced way back in the 90s when
350
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:22,040
he began to freshly pour out on my life because I can remember my dissatisfaction.
351
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,040
I'd say, Lord, I love what I've seen.
352
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,040
I've been to so many nations and it's been wonderful.
353
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:35,040
And I've seen the blind eyes open and the deaf ears open and every dead raised.
354
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:41,040
I mean, we saw those with our own eyes, but I'm like, there's got to be more.
355
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,040
What about me?
356
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,040
What about me, Marty?
357
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:51,040
Not the multitudes, but I'm hungry for something more that I'm not seeing.
358
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,040
And he was so faithful.
359
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,040
He said, you just hold on because you're praying into this and you're going to receive
360
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,040
something fresh.
361
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,040
And I did.
362
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,040
And I remember that whole concept.
363
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:08,040
And first of all, I have to say that God, when he opens a door, there's a way to go
364
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,040
through the open door and it's sweet low.
365
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,040
As low as you can go through that door.
366
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:21,040
As a matter of fact, he gave me a mini vision one time about the door to the place called
367
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:28,040
Moore and kind of came out in a poem, but it was, I saw this door and through the door,
368
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:35,040
I saw this great light and it's big space was beyond the door, but the door was very
369
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,040
low.
370
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,040
And I perceived I had to crawl in on my face.
371
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:46,040
And then he showed me the whole principle of getting from where you are, leaving behind
372
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:51,040
where you are and going through the door to the place called Moore.
373
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,040
It required humility.
374
00:21:52,040 --> 00:22:00,040
We enter in weakness to every new phase of God, but that whole principle of how much
375
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,040
are you willing to drink of his process?
376
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,040
I think many get caught in a pattern.
377
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:11,040
They think, okay, we'll spend, get up an hour, spend an hour with the Lord and the word
378
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,040
or this or that, but we depend on the pattern.
379
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,040
And it's not a pattern that makes you hungry though.
380
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:24,040
It's just like being available all the time, not just in your morning devotions or whatever.
381
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:31,040
It's just like, Paul says, keeping your mind on, and Philippians, keeping your mind on
382
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:36,040
what's, what's, whoever is lovely, what's ever is true whatsoever is.
383
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,040
And we, I thought that's the key to renewed mind, right?
384
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,040
And that one verse, you know, but we don't, we kind of fall short of that.
385
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,040
At least I do.
386
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,040
And that's why the word is so important to us.
387
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:56,040
It is the light on our path and he guides us through these principles to go from glory
388
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,040
to glory.
389
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,040
And I think that's what we're all feeling.
390
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,040
Glory to glory.
391
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,040
There's a new release of glory coming on the earth.
392
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,040
I believe it with all my heart.
393
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,040
His presence is so strong.
394
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:18,040
I mean, just this morning we spent, you know, some time deep, deep in his presence and every
395
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:23,040
time it just overwhelms me and makes me realize I've got to drink more.
396
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,040
I've got, because I've got to have more capacity.
397
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,040
I need more capacity.
398
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,040
And then of course we can't damn up what he puts in us.
399
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,040
It needs to flow out, you know.
400
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,040
And we have to realize that he is limitless.
401
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,040
Yes.
402
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:47,040
And he is, he is working in us to expand us so that we can, we can process, we can let
403
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,040
more flow through us.
404
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,040
Yes.
405
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,040
You know, there's an, there's an increase.
406
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:56,040
It's a continual increase that we, that we have to anticipate from him and it's from
407
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:57,040
him.
408
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,040
And the grace is there to stretch.
409
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,040
Yes.
410
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,040
That's like the prayer.
411
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:08,040
I believe that I can't remember where it is, but that you would be filled with all the
412
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,040
fullness.
413
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:10,040
Yes.
414
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,040
Of Christ, of God in Christ Jesus.
415
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:16,040
So there's, look at how much more we need.
416
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,040
Right.
417
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,040
And he's limitless.
418
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,040
So we have to, we have to get it, get it into our heads that our spirits are limitless.
419
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,040
Right.
420
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,320
And our bodies may have limitations, but I think the more we yield to the spirit, even
421
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,040
our bodies will catch up.
422
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,040
That's a good thought to soar on.
423
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,040
Yeah.
424
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,040
Yeah.
425
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:39,040
In a particular time in my life, ministry, Marty's in mind, which we've already described
426
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:50,440
a 20 years of ministry and many, many, many nations and, and, um, was hungry.
427
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:57,120
So we encountered this gentleman and, and, and as I, as I, or we reflect back and constantly
428
00:24:57,120 --> 00:25:04,840
men mentioned a stranger, another man, God uses men, but we don't look to men.
429
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:10,800
Uh, the point is when you're hungry, when he makes you hungry, you acknowledge that
430
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:11,800
you're hungry.
431
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,400
You, and you admit, acknowledge that what you're feeling is his invitation.
432
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:21,080
It's his, he is calling you to his, to the table.
433
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,880
You're hungry, but you can't describe what you're hungry for because you've not tasted
434
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:25,880
it yet.
435
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:26,880
Oh, that's good.
436
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,960
And, but when you taste it, you know, what did, what did the apostle say?
437
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,400
This is that.
438
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:33,400
Yes.
439
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:34,400
Okay.
440
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:39,520
And this, this man, this preacher kept saying, you've got, you've got to be, boom, be more
441
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,120
hungry, be more hungry.
442
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:46,800
And I got so tired and aggravated with him because I just wanted to scream, well, I am
443
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,280
hungry and he'd say it again.
444
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:49,280
You got to be more hungry.
445
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,280
You got to be more hungry.
446
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:58,500
And that was frustrating to me because I didn't know how to be more hungry.
447
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:03,760
And he said, and all you have to do is yield, yield, yield.
448
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,120
And man, I got sick of him hearing him saying yield.
449
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:12,360
And, but I kept going to the meetings and, and got more hungry.
450
00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:17,360
But I came to a place where I just wanted to just interrupt him and say, man, I don't
451
00:26:17,360 --> 00:26:19,600
know how to yield.
452
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:24,760
And, and, and right there, I said it out of, out of a frustration.
453
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,460
I don't know how to yield.
454
00:26:27,460 --> 00:26:30,840
And I thought, that's my problem.
455
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,400
I don't know how to yield.
456
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,400
How do I yield?
457
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:40,720
And the Lord spoke to me and he said, just yield.
458
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,160
Use the same word to define it.
459
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,000
I said, I said, but I don't, I'm trying.
460
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,800
He said, that's your problem.
461
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:54,320
You never received more from, he said, you never received more from me by trying harder.
462
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,720
You cannot say it again.
463
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:02,180
You can, you never received more from me by trying harder.
464
00:27:02,180 --> 00:27:05,400
You received more by yielding more.
465
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,040
I hope this helps somebody.
466
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,040
Yes.
467
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,520
Because I, I, what I yield, what I did, I yielded.
468
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:19,480
But what I meant, but what I understood, it meant surrender.
469
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,760
Stop the fight.
470
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,600
I didn't know I was fighting.
471
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:30,120
I didn't know I was resisting because I had made it a mental cerebral thing, you know,
472
00:27:30,120 --> 00:27:32,520
or something that I had to do.
473
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:39,640
Now what I'm saying to you and to the multitudes that'll hear this is, it's a mystery.
474
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,160
It's a mystery, but you can do it.
475
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,840
You can do it.
476
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:48,040
Jesus is who calls you will give you grace, but stop the fight.
477
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,040
Okay.
478
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,800
Stop looking at people, go to Jesus and just be honest with him.
479
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,400
Lord, I'm yielding.
480
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,840
I'm yielding.
481
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,820
I'm surrendering.
482
00:27:59,820 --> 00:28:06,040
If there was, if my trying harder would get more, I'd have more, but my trying harder
483
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,560
is not working.
484
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:08,560
Right.
485
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:14,440
My sacrifices are not producing what's, what's happening.
486
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:25,800
Once you come to that realization, that self realization, and basically you just, I'm done.
487
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,440
Jesus yielded and he gave up the ghost.
488
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,520
It's finished.
489
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:34,520
Yeah.
490
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:35,520
Yeah.
491
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,520
You can have that.
492
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,600
I can't give it to you, but you can have it.
493
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:46,440
So you take what's being said today to heart, talk to Jesus about it.
494
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,040
He's totally on your side.
495
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,540
He's not pressing you.
496
00:28:50,540 --> 00:28:51,760
He's not against you.
497
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:52,760
He's for you.
498
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,680
He loves you.
499
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,880
Maybe you just need to surrender.
500
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:57,880
Amen.
501
00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:58,880
Beautiful.
502
00:28:58,880 --> 00:28:59,880
Beautiful.
503
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:00,880
Beautiful.
504
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:01,880
Would you pray for our listeners?
505
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,440
Lord Jesus, we know who you are.
506
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,960
We know what you do.
507
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,500
We know what you give.
508
00:29:10,500 --> 00:29:16,320
You give yourself, you give life, you give righteousness, peace, joy.
509
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,800
And those are the things that we are truly hungry for.
510
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:26,600
So let us, Lord, those who are listening, let them lay aside all the things that they
511
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:32,560
think the way it should be, the way they've heard is going to be.
512
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:39,920
All of that, let's lay all of that aside and bow the knee of our heart to the Lord Jesus
513
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,560
and say this, Lord Jesus, you have made me hungry.
514
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:50,960
I renounce any sense of anything that I've done to create a hunger.
515
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,040
It's all from you.
516
00:29:53,040 --> 00:30:00,260
So Lord, I yield to you right now and I submit to the hunger that you put in my heart to
517
00:30:00,260 --> 00:30:02,080
do its work.
518
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:08,040
I praise you all, all for your glory, but I can't do it.
519
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,360
I quit trying right now.
520
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,640
I'm not trying anymore.
521
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:18,480
I'm believing that you have made me hungry, that you have called me to your table where
522
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,160
there's bread and wine and everlasting life.
523
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:28,120
So Lord, I lay down all the fight and I say, Lord, here I am in Jesus' name.
524
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,120
Amen.
525
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:30,120
Amen.
526
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:37,360
As a footnote to what we've been talking about and after that prayer, during the prayer,
527
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:43,560
John mentioned righteousness, peace and joy, that that's what the Lord wants to provide
528
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:44,920
for us.
529
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:50,200
And I was just thinking on the words of Jesus that it is the Father's good pleasure to
530
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:51,620
give us the kingdom.
531
00:30:51,620 --> 00:30:53,160
What is the kingdom?
532
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:58,840
Righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
533
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,160
That is the kingdom of God and it's within us.
534
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:03,680
He is within us.
535
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,520
His kingdom is being built within us.
536
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:14,960
So I just had to share that because that's contrary to what many people are eating today
537
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:22,480
with depression and anxiety and so many things that they're thinking they have to have in
538
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:23,480
their lives.
539
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:31,320
No, it is the Father's good pleasure to give you through Jesus the kingdom of God, righteousness,
540
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,520
peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
541
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:34,520
Amen.
542
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:35,520
The oil of gladness.
543
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:36,520
Yes.
544
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,520
Amen.
