00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,040
I am so excited about this. I want to welcome you to the Purpose Project podcast. During our time

2
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:13,680
together, I will teach you how to pray, how to intentionally develop intimacy with your creator,

3
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:19,920
and challenge you to discover and embrace your God-ordained purposes. I am your host,

4
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:26,640
Margie Flarrant. My prayer for you today is that you will be empowered and strengthened in the Word

5
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:35,920
of God to move forward into your destiny. What is the definition of revival? Well, first of all,

6
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:43,520
you can't revive something that hasn't lived. So, the revival is coming to the backslider in the

7
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:49,280
state of New Jersey. The revival is coming to the church in the state of New Jersey, the believers.

8
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:54,400
The revival is coming to us. We've been living and moving and having our being in Jesus,

9
00:00:54,400 --> 00:01:00,240
and God is going to pour out of his spirit upon us in a fresh, new, brand new way.

10
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:07,840
Revival. It's an act or instant of re-instance of reviving. The state of being revived such as a

11
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:16,160
renewed attention to or interest in something, a period of renewed religious interest, a restoration

12
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:22,960
of force, restoration of life, consciousness, vigor or strength. Margie's definition. This is

13
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:28,320
my definition because this is what I went through the last six months. Fresh dedication.

14
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:38,880
Fresh dedication. I've been waiting on you to dedicate yourself a fresh to me. I've been silent.

15
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:44,080
I've been waiting because I've been silent. I've been in a sense testing you to see what was in

16
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:53,600
your heart. If I'm silent, are you going to still serve me? What is in your heart? You're listening.

17
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:55,600
Fresh dedication.

18
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:06,000
Shall I bring you to the birth and shut up the womb, says your God? You are right at the point

19
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:14,400
across road of birth. Don't give up now. Fresh dedication. After a while, I just had to get in

20
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:21,920
my prayer closet, shut the door, say, Lord, all right. Been tormented long enough. Because I don't

21
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:27,680
know about you, but if I'm not right with God, I don't feel good. I'm just saying it straight up,

22
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:33,040
because I'll tell you why. The thing that's on the inside of me and what I carry is more real

23
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:41,680
than anything out here. It's nice to have nice things, but what matters to me the most is my

24
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:49,840
treasure that I have in an earthen vessel. You're listening. So something's not right on the inside.

25
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:56,480
I'm not happy. I'm not happy. What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world

26
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:04,640
and loses his soul? Not happy. So finally on the presence of God, I said, all right, what do you

27
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:11,360
want? I wasn't mad. I was just annoyed. He said, I want you to dedicate yourself a fresh to me.

28
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:18,080
I'm like, now what do you want? You have everything. Oh, but there's depths to dedication.

29
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:29,360
There's depths of dedication, angel. There's depths of dedication. God wants you to dedicate

30
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:35,760
yourself deeper and higher than you've ever dedicated to him before, because there's a lot at

31
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:42,640
stake. Our young people need us. Our youth needs us. This area needs us. God is calling you at the

32
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,920
church to a fresh level of dedication. This is not a popular message, but I am telling you

33
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:56,400
right now, the dealings of God are being released in the earth. He's calling you to a fresh dedication.

34
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:07,280
Get off your phones. Put your phones away. My God, what are we doing with our time?

35
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:14,800
It's a fresh dedication. I was so distracted. I'd go into my prayer room and I'd be like,

36
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,440
I love you, Jesus.

37
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,240
Distracted like you can't even believe.

38
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:42,160
You talk about ADD. I couldn't even focus in on Jesus, the author and the finisher of my faith.

39
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:50,080
I couldn't focus on him enough whereby I could see into the depths of his heart and go deep down

40
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:55,120
into the depths of his heart. Let me tell you something about prayer. This is a little nugget.

41
00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:02,480
There are depths of prayer and I'm going to be teaching it. People don't know it. God said,

42
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:08,880
God called you to teach it. There are depths of prayer. There is a place in prayer where you get

43
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:18,880
lost, where you enter into a place and there is no thought of self. You are so consumed with God.

44
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:24,560
You are so longing for him. You are so longing for that person you are praying for to be saved

45
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,680
and come to the knowledge of the truth. It is more real to you than anything out here in the natural.

46
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:37,600
Fresh dedication to God. That's revival. Well, okay, I'm a house. Remember when I used to preach

47
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:45,760
all this? It just came to me. What is revival? It is a new beginning of obedience to God.

48
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:54,720
What are you asking me to do with my life? I'm asking you to lay aside every weight. I'm asking

49
00:05:54,720 --> 00:06:01,600
you to lay aside that thing that you like to do so much and I'm asking you to serve me with clean

50
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:08,400
hands and a pure heart and cut it out. Nobody sees what you do in secret, but I see says,

51
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:13,760
Lord, it's hindering you in your race. It's hindering the anointing. I want to work a work

52
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,640
in your day that if it were told you would be like a dream, but I can't work through people

53
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:25,120
through. I can't say that. He said it. I said, pastor, if I'm wrong, you could correct me and

54
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,240
you may have. He wants to work through vessels of honor that are meat for the master's use.

55
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,960
Those that have clean hands and a pure heart, I understand that we are the righteousness of

56
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,280
God in Christ Jesus. I understand that we are the head and not the tail. I understand that we're

57
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:43,360
above only and not beneath. I understand that we live and move and have our being in him. I

58
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,000
understand that our identity is in Christ, that when Jesus looks at us, he sees Jesus.

59
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,080
But there's something about living right.

60
00:06:52,080 --> 00:07:04,160
I believe God is preparing us for us to see a major move of God, but we've got to get ready for it.

61
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:13,520
You don't hear anybody preaching this. I got chosen. Wonderful. God is waiting on us. I said to God

62
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:19,120
recently again, I said, Lord, I just want more of you. He said, he put his hand on his hip because,

63
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:27,680
you know, God gets that thing he does, right? He said, you don't need more of me. I need more of you.

64
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:43,680
Return to your first love, repent and do the first works. Remember from when star art fallen.

65
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:51,440
Remember when you first got saved. Remember how on fire you were for me. I want you to burn for me.

66
00:07:53,440 --> 00:08:00,400
I want you to be consumed by me. I want you to come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden

67
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:07,280
and stop turning to food, stop turning to alcohol, stop turning to Xanax. I'm the one that wants to

68
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:16,560
be your sufficiency. I want to give you rest. I am calling my church to holiness. I am calling my

69
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:23,920
people to walk with me with clean hands and a pure heart. I am going to revive the message of holiness,

70
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:30,000
but it's not going to be with condemnation and guilt. It's going to be with love and grace.

71
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:40,960
I'm still a Margie's definition. Yeah, because I live it. Listen, I can't be a phony.

72
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:49,120
I can't be a phony preacher. So if I'm not doing it, I'm not preaching it because that scares me.

73
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,640
All these people that like do whatever, you know, it's like, I don't get it. I'm so scared.

74
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:02,080
Like Joyce Meyer, she's like, you know, she goes, I just can't get away with, you know,

75
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,200
certain things that other people do. I'm sitting there and tell me about it.

76
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,880
What is that? The more you want, the more you want to see, the more you got to just let it go.

77
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,400
Is everybody happy tonight? Yeah, you're just going to get everybody's good.

78
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:30,480
Fresh dedication, consecration, surrender. My goodness, surrender. In our prayer times,

79
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:40,400
in our house, we just played that prayer. I surrender. I surrender. I want to know you.

80
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:51,840
I want to know you. I surrender. Surrender. We should Google it, the definition.

81
00:09:53,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Somebody Google it, but don't go to your page, your Facebook page. Surrender. Surrender is an

82
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:10,960
act of obedience. Surrender is say, Lord, not my will. Your will be done in my life. It's not

83
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:17,280
what I want. It's what you want. You know, I told my husband, I said, honey, you know,

84
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:24,880
he's got all these plans. I go, honey, I'm not going to retire. I'm going to refire.

85
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:32,400
And he doesn't know it yet. And I know this is a public meeting, but he ain't here.

86
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,440
But when he retires, pastor, guess what's going to happen?

87
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,840
He's going to go on the road with me.

88
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:55,440
When we first got married, guess, well, just before we got married, but guess what used to

89
00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:03,200
used to used to used to used to used to used to happen to him. He come to the house and he go,

90
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:09,360
my hands are on fire. My hands are on fire. My hands are on fire. He has a healing anointing.

91
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:14,960
What's he doing with it? I'm telling you what he's doing with it. He's doing what he's supposed to

92
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:22,240
be doing. Everything he sets his hand to do turns to gold. He's making money, money, money, money,

93
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:30,720
money, money, money, money. That's a good thing. You need money to build the kingdom. He goes,

94
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:38,720
I'm called to finance the gospel. It's good. You married me. I have a big vision. We are going

95
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:44,320
to teach the world how to pray. We need money to do that. And quite honestly, people aren't giving

96
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:56,080
in church like they should. So God's got to work. Hi. God's got to like, you know, pull a few strings

97
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,640
and he's got to get some businessmen raised up to help finance the gospel.

98
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:07,440
All you need is one man with a bunch of money and you can build a church anywhere.

99
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:16,240
But let me tell you something. I know somebody that is close to Joyce Meyer and

100
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:23,680
she said at one of her board meetings that the people that support her ministry are the people

101
00:12:23,680 --> 00:12:33,920
that give the five, 10 and $25 offerings. That's where most of the money comes from.

102
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:44,000
Here's one. This is still a Margie definition. Joyful obedience. Joyful. I added the joyful.

103
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:54,320
Joyful obedience. Doing it because I want to do it. And it's a joyful thing. Have you ever had

104
00:12:54,320 --> 00:13:01,680
God just drag you to do something? He's dragging you along. Just do it. I'm doing it. You know,

105
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:06,080
it's like that rebellion thing. I'm, you know, the little boy, you know, the mother tells him to do

106
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:11,440
something and go in the corner because he was disobedient. And he goes, I may be standing up

107
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:19,840
on the inside, but I'm sitting on the outside, but I'm sitting on the inside. Rebellion is as a sin

108
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:27,440
of witchcraft. Let not that be named amongst us. And lastly of Margie's definition.

109
00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:35,360
Letting go of the weights that keep us from running our spiritual race.

110
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:42,640
Do you know why I had to go on a fast and I don't like fasting and I don't like it at all? And I

111
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:49,120
don't totally fast because I can't. I'll pass out. Everybody's got their own fast ways of fasting.

112
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:56,880
Correct? I had to fast my nights with God because at night I'd watch my little shows.

113
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:03,840
I have two shows. I don't know if I should tell you what they are. You want me to?

114
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,160
No, no, no. I couldn't watch it. I would cry too much. I couldn't. I can't watch anything that makes

115
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:17,280
me upset, but I would watch. I watch. My kids, no, don't call me from seven to eight. I like E news.

116
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:25,200
Is it over, Pastor? I'm sorry if that's bad. E news. And what's the other one? Entertainment

117
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:41,520
tonight and you know, access Hollywood. I want to know you more. I want to know you more. I surrender.

118
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:51,680
God was like, I want you to come to me. I want you to lay aside some of those things.

119
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,160
And I want you to give your nights to me like you did when you were single,

120
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:02,480
when you would pray all night and you spent all that time with me because I was your first love.

121
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:17,280
And I had all of you, not just a part of you. I surrender. I surrender. I want to know you more.

122
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:25,040
Now there's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with fashion. It's the rest of it.

123
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:32,960
All right, we got to move on here. This is actually a good message. I think it's actually

124
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:38,880
really amazing that this is coming out anointed because this is not a popular message. You know

125
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:44,720
why it's anointed because God is in it? Because if we want revival, these are the things that's

126
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:51,920
going to help us to gain momentum in revival. See, I want all of God. How about you? All right,

127
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:57,200
let's pass all this. Okay, this vision, we said it already. We're not going to say too much about

128
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:02,000
it, but I want to proclaim these scriptures over you. It's being birthed after a season of great

129
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:07,760
discouragement, demonic warfare, and tiredness that was against the church. I want to wake you up

130
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:19,840
right now. Okay, you ready to be woken up? Maybe I should go on this side. I want to know you more.

131
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,720
There are devils, demons, and witches, and warlocks in the earth today.

132
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,320
We can't stick our heads in the sand and say they don't exist. As a matter of fact, I'm thinking,

133
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:37,680
if anybody in here is a witch and a warlock, God will show me. Because I already had it happen

134
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:43,520
once. There was a warlock in one of my meetings. Fire God came on me. I pointed him out. Commanded

135
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:48,240
the fire of God to come on him. He left that church like his pants were on fire and they were.

136
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,880
Later on, somebody said, you know who that was? I don't know who he was. And you know what I said

137
00:16:54,880 --> 00:17:01,120
to him? I said, no man is going to mock my God. And no man's going to mock the minister of God.

138
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:07,440
You know what the people said to me? They said, he's a known warlock in our town and he came to

139
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:16,240
disrupt the service with tarot cards. But the Holy Ghost had other plans. Let us be wise as

140
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:21,680
serpents and hormonies says dove. Let's know our enemy. That's why we've got to be revived.

141
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,400
Do you know you could prophesy and be in sin?

142
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,000
What? Yeah, you can because it's a gift.

143
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:39,600
I just think you need to know that. Just watch who prophesies to you and watch who lays hands on you.

144
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:44,320
Just for you to know. But one of the things Chuck Pierce said that I thought was very

145
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:50,480
interesting about the latter part of 2017. Is everybody still awake? Because if you want me

146
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:55,520
to, I could throw some water on everybody. Because we did say it's beginning to rain, right?

147
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,520
He said the warfare was going to increase toward the latter part of 2017.

148
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:06,720
So this is what happened to me. I had warfare from here and I had warfare from within. Warfare

149
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:12,240
wore in my own members. Not the devil. The devil's not in me. But war in my own members.

150
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:17,920
You know, let go of this and let go of that and surrender this and surrender that. And I want

151
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:22,400
to do a new thing and I want you to stop traveling so much. I don't know how to do it, God. You know,

152
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:28,400
just all this inner like what? But the warfare from without was the discouragement that many of you

153
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:34,800
felt. It's the devil. You know, I know we don't give the devil enough credit, but sometimes I

154
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:43,280
think we give him too much credit, but I think there's a balance. Fiery darts are the wicked.

155
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:50,560
But this is what the Holy Ghost said. He said, but now we've entered into a new season.

156
00:18:51,360 --> 00:18:57,920
And these are four scriptures he gave for me to you. He lifted me up out of the

157
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:06,160
slimy pit. You're coming out of that slimy pit. Are you listening? And the angels of the Lord are

158
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:16,400
here and they're out of the mud and mire and he set my feet upon a rock and gave me a firm place to

159
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:23,040
stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God and many will see it and fear

160
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:28,480
the Lord. I prophesy to you that he is putting a new song in your mouth that he's bringing you up

161
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:34,800
out of the mirey clit and he's setting your feet upon a rock. I prophesy that he's putting a new

162
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:46,640
song in your heart. Many will see it and rejoice. Psalm 6612. You let people ride over our heads.

163
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:55,040
We went through fire and water that you brought us up out and refreshed us in a water place. This

164
00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:02,880
is revival. I prophesy that he's bringing you up out of this place and he's bringing you into a

165
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:12,080
water garden. You shall be like a watered garden and like springs of water whose waters fail not.

166
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:24,400
Genesis 15, 50, 20. You intended to harm me but God intended it for our good to accomplish what is

167
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:32,000
being done. That is of saving lives. So all this was intended to harm you, to take you out, to get

168
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,720
you to quit, to try to get you to stop doing what God's called you to do and you know what? It only

169
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:44,560
made you stronger. You don't know what you got inside of you because you go through hell

170
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:53,440
and then you go, whoa, I'm pretty strong in the Lord and the power of his might. Wow, greater is he

171
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:59,040
that is in me than he that's in the world. Wow, this stuff really works. He brought me up out of a

172
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:16,640
horrible pit. He set my feet upon a rock. He put a new song in my mouth. Whoa. Exodus 112, I love this

173
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:32,640
one. But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and spread. So the Egyptians came to

174
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:38,800
dread the Israelites and this is what I saw and the Holy Ghost gave that to me for you. He said,

175
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:45,760
I saw you and I saw, I don't even know how to describe it, it's like you were coming up out of

176
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:51,440
out of a, it was like, um, not even how to describe it. You know how leaves get when they're dry

177
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:59,520
and they're all crinkly? I saw, I saw many of you coming up like a mighty army out of that dry

178
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:09,600
ground, out of that dry place, out of that wrinkled leaves all crispy. I saw you coming up out and

179
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:15,200
I saw you taking a stand and I saw you marching and I saw you putting on your gear and you were

180
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:24,560
an exceeding great army that is dreaded by the enemy. The devil is not afraid of who you are.

181
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:35,200
He is afraid, my church, my people of who you are becoming. There has never been a generation

182
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:40,560
like this generation. There has never been a church, a body, a people, a universal church.

183
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:46,400
You understand what I'm saying? Like there has in this day, I'm sorry, but God, the enemy fears you.

184
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:52,880
Why? Because we know the word. We sure do know the word. We know more word than Calvin Coleman.

185
00:22:54,880 --> 00:23:02,000
We know the word, but we also have been trained in the spirit. Now what? This they begin to do,

186
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:11,360
do? Now nothing shall be impossible to them which they have imagined to do.

187
00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:21,120
He brought you up out of Mary clay. He set your feet upon a rock. The devil looks at you, he fears you.

188
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,080
He's in awe of you. You're his worst nightmare.

189
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:32,640
When you get up in the morning, I know this is a cliche in the church, but it's true.

190
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:40,000
When you get up in the morning, the devil goes, oh my God, there she is. There he is. What are they

191
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:49,200
going to do today? Okay, we already said it. I'm just going to say it quickly and then we're going

192
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:55,760
to close. The vision is also being birthed, this vision of revival and restoration. After seasons

193
00:23:55,760 --> 00:24:02,880
of dealing with God, dealings, a season of dealings with God in our hearts. He's dealing with impure

194
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:08,880
motives, selfish ambition, pride, weights of sin, and our love walk. The Bible says, let nothing be

195
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:14,560
done through selfish ambition and pride. Do you know that that scripture is in the Bible? Did you

196
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:22,960
know that scripture was in the Bible? It really is. So we have to examine ourselves to see whether

197
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:32,800
or not we are in the faith. I was in my bed one morning, minding my own business. Look at that

198
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:42,240
Facebook. Instagram, email, and what else is there? Let's see. Twitter. Yeah, I'm not really

199
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:50,960
bad on Twitter. And I'm telling you, God is my witness. God is my witness. I've only seen Jesus

200
00:24:50,960 --> 00:25:01,040
from the side. And he wasn't a wimpy Jesus. He was King Jesus. And he was, and he had a huge crown.

201
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:07,600
And when I teach him prayer, sometimes I teach him like too feminine, which you have to watch when

202
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:15,120
girls teach you how to pray. And I saw a new side of him. Well, I'm laying in my bed, minding my

203
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:27,600
own business. And I don't know how to describe it other than he walked into my bedroom. I didn't see

204
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:32,560
him. But you know, when somebody walks in the room, like if you had your eyes closed, you knew

205
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:43,680
they were walking in the room. And he walked in the room. And he walked up to the side of my bed.

206
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:53,760
I'm laying there like this. And he said to me, he said it in here. I didn't hear it out here. He said,

207
00:25:55,200 --> 00:26:03,200
what is the most important thing? And he knew what I would say. Because it's all I teach. I go,

208
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:14,880
well intimacy with you. Intimacy with you. You know what he said to me? He said, and how you treat

209
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:26,960
your, how you treat your neighbor. He turned around and he walked out. And I was like, shocked.

210
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:37,040
Who am I not walking in love with now? Now what are you trying to tell me? Who is it?

211
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,480
Who is it?

212
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:56,960
Some people are pretty obvious. But who else is it? Our love walk. Thou shall love the Lord your

213
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:02,880
God with all of your heart, all of your soul and all of your might. Love your neighbor as yourself.

214
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:09,600
We're going to close. I had a lot more to say, but I guess I should stop.

215
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:18,000
I got to stop. I'm going to tell you something. We're coming into a personal revival.

216
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:24,640
It begins in your own private time in your closet. Those of you that are intercessors,

217
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:29,440
God's anointing you Psalms 92 10 with fresh oil. Mark it down. You're going to enter into

218
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:34,560
depths of prayer. It's not by might, not by power by the spirit. He's going to give you strength to

219
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:40,800
give birth because we've a lot of us had lost our strength during the latter part of 2017.

220
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:45,280
God is restoring it because there's things to give birth to. And I believe it has to do with the

221
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:51,520
power gifts and this move of God. So in the name of Jesus, you are being revived. Number two, we're

222
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:56,400
being revived in our corporate settings. You're going to see pastor and maybe you already have,

223
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:02,160
while the people are singing and the people become as one, the glory of God filling the church.

224
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:09,040
And there's going to be times that the glory of God is going to reach a level that some will not

225
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:17,360
be able to stand by reason of the cloud in this cloud of glory. Many of many are going to have

226
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:23,760
dreams, not dreams because you only dream at night when the sleep falls upon you, but many are

227
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:32,640
going to have visions and words and encounters with Jesus. We had it happen in the 80s when we

228
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:38,400
used to preach in that four-square church. We'd lay hands on the young people, kids, little kids,

229
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,320
they'd fall under the power, they'd have visions of Jesus. They'd get up off the floor and they'd

230
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:48,560
tell us they saw Jesus. That is going to be restored. Thirdly, there's going to be street

231
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:56,400
revival. What does that mean? The Bible says in Habakkuk that the secret of the hiding of God's

232
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:10,720
power is in his hands. Who are the hands and the feet and the body of Christ? We are. There is going

233
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:20,560
to be signs and wonders and miracles flowing from the hands of the believers. The believer's

234
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:25,680
ministry angel is going to be restored and revived like it was when Sandy Brown used to preach it.

235
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:32,240
The body of Christ is going to rise and they're going to take the simple verses from Mark 16

236
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:42,720
that says, these signs will follow them that believe. They will what? They will lay hands on the sick

237
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:50,240
and the sick will recover. And I just heard in my spirit and there will be great joy in the city.

238
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:57,920
God's saying, go into the highways and byways and compel the lost to come to me. There will be great

239
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:04,560
joy in the city. The spirit of the Lord is upon you. He's anointed you to preach. You could preach

240
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,160
and then it's going to increase. He's going to increase you in boldness.

241
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,600
Because some of you don't want to say nothing.

242
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:20,800
Why don't we stand? Do you know what I think we should do? I know what I think, you know what I

243
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:29,120
did in my six months of getting right with God? You know what I did? I started watching videos on

244
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:39,360
heaven and hell. You talk about like, you know, all of a sudden you got to like think about eternity.

245
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:49,920
You start watching, you start watching things about heaven and hell and you'll shift your focus.

246
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,920
Jesus, thank you Lord.

247
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,880
Thank you Jesus, what did you play on? Thank you Lord.

248
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:06,880
Hmm.

249
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:22,560
He's shifting this church and this ministry in particular. And I just saw that when I felt it

250
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:28,480
when I came by you. And that's some of you think you related to a lot of what I was saying because

251
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:33,360
you've been having that dealings, the inward dealings and then the outward warfare. It's,

252
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:38,880
I never even thought of that like that, but it's what's been going on. It's an inward shift taking

253
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,760
place and what's happening within you is going to flow up out of you and it's going to affect

254
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:49,680
everybody around and your responsibility is great. Take it really serious because you take

255
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:58,080
your people serious. You know what, you are a true man of God. I know you don't need to know that,

256
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:11,680
but you're the real deal. That shift, you know, you got to go with the shift. Don't be, I don't

257
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:17,440
want to say afraid, but just do it because you'd be surprised how many people will go with you

258
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:27,040
in the shift because I think people are ready for it. It's very interesting to me as a leader

259
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:34,000
because we've learned that God deals with us and then you're going to find if you haven't been going

260
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:40,480
through some of the dealings, he's going to start dealing with you. I received a word of prophecy

261
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:47,120
in October of 2017. This girl didn't even know me. She's a real prophet because her prophecies

262
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,560
came to pass because there's a lot of prophets out there. You better watch who prophesies to you.

263
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:58,240
This is really getting serious now. I don't know what's going on, but anyway, off of that subject,

264
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:06,400
she said several things to me. She's like, your whole prayer life is up in the aunties. Is that

265
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:12,080
the word? The auntie is not even a word I use. It's like up there, like in the air, and I'm like

266
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:17,680
confused by my own prayer life. I wrote several books on prayer. It's just unbelievable what is

267
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,680
going on with my prayer life. The Holy Ghost said it's up in the air like that she used a different

268
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:26,640
word because God's wanting to teach you and show you some things so you could teach others.

269
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:34,480
So you understand how that works? We got to go through it. I know there might be a scripture

270
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:41,840
that goes with that so that we can bring others in. First partakers of the fruit.

271
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:48,000
So that's why it's very important to be obedient and to yield to the dealings and to go with God.

272
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:57,760
You know the fact that we were able to preach it and it was received is a huge, huge, this is huge.

273
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:05,760
It's because we're all ready. So Angel, how do we minister to the people one on one?

274
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:11,200
I think we need to lay hands on some of them, right?

275
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,800
Pastor, it's nine o'clock. I just need to know.

276
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,640
Just just wait on the Lord because I want to know exactly how to do this.

277
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:36,080
There's just a lot of needs in here.

278
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,200
You know, to be honest, the Holy Spirit just said to me, he said, you know, if many of them,

279
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:53,600
if they would just, if they would just take this word and apply it to their lives,

280
00:34:53,600 --> 00:35:00,080
he said they'll know the truth and the truth will set them free. Does anybody hear that?

281
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,720
How many of you heard that? He said, if you just take this truth and you apply it to your own

282
00:35:04,720 --> 00:35:09,920
lives, you'll know the truth and this truth will set you free. Thank you for listening to the
