Welcome to the Jonathan Shuttlesworth Podcast. To stay connected, go to revivaltoday.com. And now here is Evangelist Jonathan.
SPEAKER_02Let me see first John 4.17. First John 4.17. You can do KJV. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment. Because in the he here is Jesus. Because as Jesus is, not as he was, not suffering, not bloody, not in a manger. As Jesus is in heaven, clothed with wisdom and power and honor and glory and riches and might and strength, so are we now in this world. Can you say amen? Say this out loud. Whatever Christ doesn't struggle with, I refuse to struggle with. I can't picture Jesus being worried about paying for a church in Pittsburgh. He has all riches, he has all glory, he has all honor, and as he is, so am I in this world. Everybody say Christ is the head. We are the body. Yeah. So whatever can happen to Christ, if I'll enforce it, can happen to me. Now, when you start getting into that John G. Lake doctrine of what they call the God man, us in Christ, Christ in us. Let me ask you a question. Was Jesus ever telling the disciples, now listen, I know you're seeing me heal lots of people. Don't you try it because you're just disciples. Do you read any verses like that? Do you read the exact opposite? The same work that you see me do, you shall do, and greater works than these. For I go to the Father on your behalf. Yes, ask anything you want to, and I will, not I might, I will give it to you that your joy may be full. Can you say amen? So then when you start preaching that, and start preaching that the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead will dwell in you, and that you can have that wonderful gift of the baptism in the Holy Spirit and speak in other tongues. The devil hates tongues, they attack it everywhere. That tongue is just a bunch of gibberish. Oh, is it? The Bible says you should be careful what you mock. Since it's tongues of men, tongues of angels, unknown tongue, uh, heavenly tongue. Four different languages that it can be. And I know some people, and some people mess everything up. I don't speak gibberish when I speak in tongues. Kuroshte ikandi orobo rashtandia kindia potoreba. I don't have a sweet clue what I just said, but that's not gibberish. That's another language. Can you say amen? It's not just stuttering your lips real fast. It's a language, a language that God gives the church and then gave the instruction. Pray always in the Holy Ghost. Don't just pray, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit. The devil doesn't mind if you say little prayers. Lord, help us as we go our separate ways. Give us traveling mercies, bring us back tomorrow night. Multiply the gift and the giver to its intended use. In that name we pray. Amen. That prayer never made it past the ceiling. That's a recited prayer, like the kind they pray at the government where the guy gets up and has it written down and prays his prayer. You know that preachers got zero relationship with God. Do you have to talk to your wife with notes? Mother's Day, do you have to tell your mom how much you love her? Before I call my mom, just let me get let me write all my thoughts down. No, it flows from your heart because you have a relationship with her. But you gotta read a prayer. I'm not sure you're making heaven. There's no connection there. And so when you pray, everybody say prayer is from the heart. Yeah. Hannah bowed down and prayed, and her lips were moving, but no sound was coming out, and tears were coming. And Eli said, Woman, do you come to the temple drunk? She said, No, sir. I haven't been drinking wine or anything stronger. 1 Samuel 1. I was pouring out my heart to God. Prayer is of the heart. Yeah, if you're driving on uh, what's the road that goes from here to Midland? 20? If you're driving on 20 and an 18-wheeler crosses the double yellow line into your lane, you don't go, Heavenly Father, we have so much to be thankful for. As we see the butterflies emerging this spring, we are reminded of how the seasons change, but your love for us never changes. You don't talk like that. You go, Jesus! Everybody say prayers from the heart. Then when you get filled with the Holy Ghost, your heart, your spirit becomes merged with the Spirit of God, and you begin to pray in the Spirit. The Bible says in Romans chapter 8, you do not know what you should pray for, nor how you should pray. But the Spirit, who knows all things, speaketh through you in groanings and utterances that can't be said in your natural language. So if all you know is Spanish or English, you don't even know what to pray for. Who knows? I could have been praying when I was 14 in the Holy Ghost over my property in Pittsburgh in 2025 and 2026, because God knows the future better than we know the past. So if I were the devil, I would do. Let me ask you a question. When they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, A-L-L, everybody say all. What's that in Spanish? Todo? Todo. I know it because that's how I order my tacos. Todo. How do you say with everything? Todo? Con todo. Yeah, con todo, with everything. Guacamole, onion, salsa, cheese, con todo. Well, guess what? I order my tacos with everything, and I want everything that Bible says I can have as an accoutrement to my Christian life. I'm not leaving the avocado out. I'm not leaving the cheese out. I'm not leaving the sauce of the onions. I want everything God has to complete my Christian life. And I know you're here tonight because there's a hunger in you to have the best of what God said you can have. And you can have God's best for your life tonight. Can you say amen? They were all filled with the Holy Ghost, all of them. So that blows the first 12 apostles right there out of the water. No, there wasn't 12 in the upper room. There was 120 on day one, and we don't know how many were there on day 10, but there was a lot. Then they got filled, more people got filled, they all got refilled in Acts 4, they all got filled in Acts 8 in Samaria. They all were filled in Acts 10 and spoke with other tongues. Even as Peter was saying these things, the Holy Spirit fell. You read the book of Acts services, they're nothing like most services that anybody's ever been to. There was no clean cut altar call. The Holy Ghost moved while the word was going forth. Acts 19. They were filled with the Holy Ghost. There's five places, and the last uh three deal with Gentiles. So for somebody, I'm saying this because, like what my daughter had to deal with, all of you have had to or will have to deal with this, where they actually treat it in the West. It's worse in Canada and Europe. But even here, like if you really understand the Bible, you don't get into all this healing and tongue stuff. That's for poor psychos, you know, out in the country that just get real excited about Christianity. If you study the Bible and stick by Baptist Bible interpretation, can you find a book for me, Tessa? I think it's called Surprised by the Holy Spirit. What is it? Jack Deere, Surprised by the Holy Spirit. And then there's another book along those lines, too, that I can't recall off the top of my head. The one I'm talking of, and it might be that one, was a Southern Baptist Bible scholar who said, I'm just gonna put this thing to bed once and for all. I got the right book? I'm gonna show how this tongues and healing and miracles and prophecy is total horse crap, and I'm gonna show it from the Bible. Guess what happened by the time he finished his book? He got baptized in the Holy Ghost and spoke in other tongues and started to move in miracles. Because if you'll read the Bible like nobody ever talked you out of it, you're gonna find that power is for you, for your children, and for those that are far off, even as many as are called in big spring by the name of the Lord our God. Can you say amen? They were all filled with the Holy Ghost and they all spoke with other tongues. There it is, surprised by the power of the Holy Spirit, Jack Beer. Discovering how God speaks and heals today. Can you say amen? When they all began to speak in tongues in Acts chapter 2, what did the crowd do? The crowd, let me see Acts 2 10-ish. Yeah, it's gonna name where they're all from. Ten? Eleven. We hear them. Now here's another thing. Why let me just swat a bunch of stuff. The reason that how many of you have heard somebody say the reason they spoke in tongues back then was to get the gospel out to those languages? Nobody? Do you people ever leave the house? How many of you have ever heard somebody say that? Well, they didn't hear them preaching the gospel. They heard them glorifying God. Let me see this one in King James. And we hear all these people in our own languages glorifying, speaking in tongues about the wonderful works of God. They weren't preaching the gospel. The gospel doesn't get preached in tongues, it gets preached under the unction of the Holy Ghost by that servant. And tongues can build it up, but that's not even in the Bible. Furthermore, if there were 120 people all speaking in 13 different languages, who would hear their language? Nobody. All you'd hear is commotion. Can you say amen? Let me see 1 Corinthians chapter 14. Let's see what the Bible says. King James, 1 Corinthians 14, verse 1. Follow after charity. That means love. And desire spiritual gifts. Everybody say desire spiritual gifts. At this church, we're open to the move of the Spirit. Yeah, you're never going to have it because you don't have it by being open to it. You have to desire it. A heartfelt hunger that I want what was in the book of Acts in my life. Covet earnestly spiritual gifts. But rather that ye may prophesy. For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue, how many know when people spoke in tongues in the Bible, it was to people. How hard is that to read? For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh what? Not unto men, but unto who? God. In fact, nobody got saved in Acts chapter 2. On the praying in tongues, on the speaking in tongues. Peter had to go out and in their language preach out of the Bible. The preaching of the gospel is what saves people. Can you say amen? These are indisputable facts. Anyone's free to disagree with me as long as they realize they're wrong and I'm right. I had somebody say to me one time, Will we agree to disagree? I said, No, I don't. I disagree to disagree. Let me see Acts 2.11. Verse 12. And they were all amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, you can do NLT. What meaneth this? 13. But others in the crowd were mocking. So what's the first thing the devil did to try to stop the move of the spirit? Mock it. That's what happens today. It's the email from my daughter's teacher to her back and forth. You know, I'm going to try not to get myself worked up about it, but you got to be some kind of jerk to be my age and try to get a 13-year-old to not believe in healing, not believe in blessing, and not believe there's a supernatural God that can help you. Just because you're full of unbelief, keep it to yourself. But you know what? People never can. The 10 spies spread their evil report of unbelief. When you get full of unbelief, you become an evangelist of unbelief. Some of you have family members, they've never had a strong opinion on anything. But when they found out you were going to church for the fourth night in a row, all of a sudden they got strong feelings. We're Catholic. Meanwhile, nobody's been to a Catholic church in 63 years, but we're Catholic. They start, I don't believe that. What about Job? Why don't you zip your lip and if you want to die in unbelief in the wilderness, knock yourself out? But I'm going with Joshua and Caleb, and I'm taking faith and possessing my promised land. But others in the crowd mocked them, saying, They're just drunk, that's all. Then Peter stepped forward with the eleven other apostles and shouted to the crowd, listen carefully, all you fellow Jews and residents of Jerusalem. Make no mistake about it. Keep going. These pe uh in the first version of the New Living Translation said, Some of you people, some of you are saying these people are drunk, but 9 o'clock in the morning is much too early for that. Peter had never been to El Paso, Texas. No. What you see today was spoken long ago by the prophet Joel. That in the last days, God says, What days are we living in right now? So when you start talking about the last days, people all think about the devil and the Antichrist and Iranian war. That's part of it. Earthquakes, famines. But God also has an agenda in the last days. Hallelujah. I've been enjoying the last handful of years more than ever because I've just been finding out what God's agenda is and getting in the flow of that. If you did anybody watch my New Year's Eve service? Thank you. I was wondering who it was. You were there? You came up to Pittsburgh? Oh, in Fort Worth. You watched there? Oh, I I see you. Are you a Cordelia? What's your name? One more time? Anne. I can remember that. So she watched it at her church in Fort Worth. I I huh? In Pittsburgh? In Fort? That's what I just said. Okay. Go go sit in the back. Face the corner. No, no, no, no. You're a great lady. So I prophesied, I said this is going to be a hard year in 2026 for agencies that are keeping the gospel from people. Because God said before Christ raptures the church, that this gospel must be preached to all nations. Yeah, not Bibles delivered in boxes. This gospel must be preached to all nations. So I said, three groups in particular are gonna, or two groups in particular, are gonna have a hard time. I said, uh, you can watch it. Sounds like I'm saying after the fact, December 31st, 2025. You can watch it on YouTube. I said, A, drug cartels have crossed the line. Not that God's okay with trafficking drugs, but when they moved into trafficking children, they entered into a judgment that's gonna come on their head because Jesus said, anybody that causes harm to one of these little ones, it'd be better that a millstone be tied around their neck. And there's some people God doesn't have any mercy for. And I said, you're gonna see the people that run the cartels get taken out. Well, it happened with Maduro two days after the New Year's Eve service. It happened with the other guy in Mexico. Do you know that guy in Mexico had closed a hundred churches down and it caused pastors to disappear? People are gonna wake up in 2026 that the church is not a nonprofit or a 501c3 or a religious entity. It is the strongest power on the face of the earth. And anybody that puts his hand to it gets ground to powder. You are gonna see the church get built, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it in Jesus' name. Come on, if you receive that today, clap your hands one more time to the Lord. Somebody shout hallelujah. Say it one time with me. Say the Lord is good, and his mercy endures forever. One more time, the Lord is good, and his mercy endures forever. So I said that and I said, Venezuela's gonna come up open to the gospel. Do you have me prophesying about Iran in 2024? Okay, so this isn't after the fact. You want to know why there's this war? If you want to call it a war, they're just good drone strikes. And also, did you know Mossad, Israeli Special Forces, had infiltrated Iran for the last 30 years as dentists and doctors? Every time an Iranian official went to get teeth work done, they implanted a tracking device in his molars. That's how they knew where every one of them were the whole time. Because Iran has not had open air preaching since 700 AD. But now that regime that has tried to keep the gospel out is being wiped off the face of the earth. And Iran will open to the gospel of Jesus Christ for massive open-air evangelism in this last hour of time. Go ahead, roll it. Not just the Russians. We can take it into the Arabic world, and it it looks like a regime change is gonna happen in Iran. And they've taken out all the Hezbollah elements, and now as of today, there's an Iranian leader who's exiled to America who said he's gonna go back and run for president. So you know that if he's doing that, the CIA in Israel told him we we got your back. So imagine that country comes open to the gospel, and we've already been reaching it because I'm preaching now in Farsi thanks to AI. You have I spent a million dollars on this to preach in Farsi. They don't speak Arabic in Iran. Now, and that doesn't make any sense. If you're gonna pay a million dollars and pick five languages, this is top-end AI technology where it's my voice and you can still hear the service, so it's not overdubbed like a Bruce Lee movie. It's about as accurate as you can get it. Why do we get along so well? We have like like like family. So um we paid. Well, you wouldn't do Farsi, Farsi is only spoken in Iraq and Iran, but I knew it was gonna come open, and we launched a Farsi YouTube channel with Farsi follow-up materials. You gotta test? Take a look. This is Iranian Jonathan.
SPEAKER_00Take the remote Sharandi and Guru Pikesik Pizami Pusha.
SPEAKER_02That's the largest church on Canada. You got Japanese, Jonathan, or no? I just like it. It doesn't really pertain to the service. Do you have the Japanese testimony from the lady that could send it to her family? Any time on that too? I know I'm just throwing curveballs back and forth. Um every person in the church could line up. This is the first you know only point two percent of Japanese people have made a decision to make Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior. Tokyo's got like one church with eight hundred people. That's the biggest one. There's a couple of other smaller ones, and that city has 40 million people. New York City in New York City's like eight million. Forty million in Tokyo, I believe. And there's like Yumi Joe could never penetrate it. So it says like the hardest place. So I like I like a challenge, and then I took this lady as a sign. To my knowledge, she's the first Japanese person that got saved in one of our meetings, and she said, now because I did that translation, she's sending it all back to her family. Listen to this.
SPEAKER_06Hi, I'm Maho Harris. Uh I'm my original name was Maho Fukasala. I'm from Japan. And then three years ago, uh, we are still dating. But he introduced me.
SPEAKER_02Uh Jesus. Japanese people make probably the nicest clothes on the face of the earth, even better than Italy. Except I hate shopping there because in Japanese stores I'm a double XL. And it makes me like feel like Quitting. I like shopping in Texas, I'm a medium. Keep going.
SPEAKER_06Jesus and then watch watched Jonathan's um YouTube teaching. And then I uh I started uh watching uh Jonathan's teaching on YouTube and uh that time I couldn't entirely understand English uh fluently but Jonathan World. I can explain how straight to my heart, straight through my soul and uh I was able to miracle a lady.
SPEAKER_02I don't know, it's like a group.
SPEAKER_06And then we change my heart.
SPEAKER_02Did you know they're coming out with a plane that um can go from New York to London in 45 minutes? That's not it, that's my plane. They can go from New York to London in 45 minutes, it's not out yet. And then they can go from New York to California in 50 minutes. So when that comes out, if I am thinking correctly, I could do Pittsburgh, California, uh and Japan on the same weekend, on the same day. So if people are mad about the jet we have now, wait till we get that one. Because I'm not, those jets weren't made so Jeffrey Epstein could have one. They're made so the gospel can get out. We can give the devil the fastest, hardest kick in the head that he's ever had in Jesus' name. Can you say amen? That's a Falcon 900 that was given to me to use. And those are two of the pilots that we use that are both from Iran. And that guy on your right, on my left up there, he got saved. What would happen is he um they have to know when to warm the jets up or the engine up. So they would watch me on YouTube, because you know, I could finish anytime between quarter after nine or quarter after midnight. So don't get nervous. I'm I'm more towards quarter after nine tonight. So uh they would watch every night to know when they needed to warm the plane up, and then in watching, you know, preaching for 90 minutes every week, they they started to get converted. So that guy, they're both from Iran, their families are in Iran. And they talk, and just so you know, you shouldn't talk to them for all these liberal nitwits and uh whatever the Pope is smoking, where he says that's bad. They're having people slaughtered there. Iran, everyone's not in peace in Iran, and then we ruined it. The people are hoping the war won't stop until the regime's taken out, otherwise the regime's gonna take all their family up. So he they he came to me that night, or that night when I went to get on the plane. He met me out there with his eyes really big. He said, You're never gonna believe this. He said, Do you know where I was the last two weeks? I said, No. He said, I was in Turkey. And there's people we know from Iran that met us in Turkey. We went out to dinner, and they brought some girls with them. So I was talking to the girls, they're in their 20s, and uh they said, What do you do for a living? He said, I'm an airplane pilot. They said, for what airline? He said, No, I fly a private jet. They said, for who? A movie star or an athlete? He said, No, it's a it's a church. And the girl said, A church? Can I see it on Instagram? You know, she's from Iran, lives in Iran. So he said, I showed her your page on Instagram, and when I showed it to her, her eyes got big. And she said to her friend in Farsi, this is who we've been watching on YouTube. And she told him, she said, uh uh eight months ago, I was at the lowest point of my life in Iran. I turned to prostitution and I hit rock bottom, and I knew I needed God's help, so I searched how to have God help me, and this Farsi YouTube page came out with this white guy. And she said, I watched him and gave my life to the Lord, and I've been a Christian for the last eight months. I took that as a sign. The devil's in for the worst three years that he's ever had on planet earth. This is not the time to go down for the Christian. This is the time where we're rising up by the power of the Most High God. If you believe it, can you shout amen? So, um, there's the YouTube channels. If you're watching online, you got family in any of those countries. So, uh, anyway, I prophesied that Venezuela was gonna come open. Now I'm gonna give you a little tip that you can take or not take. Instead of just prophesying stuff, when the Lord gives you a heads up on stuff, it's like the Lord told me Iran's gonna come open. Well, I you know, if if I was in my 20s, I'd have been stupid enough to think, well, you know, the assemblies of God and church of God and everybody can take care of it, they'll send all their missionaries. But did you know after World War II, Japan in World War II was like Iran will be if we clean their regime out. They didn't like their government, the Japanese, and they like the Americans. That's why they make the best jeans in Japan. They wanted to model everything they do in the South. They say there's barbecue places with brisket in Japan, that the line's like three hours long. They've like taken everything you do in Texas and refined it. Denim, they they they remade Levi's jackets, all that stuff because they liked that the Americans set them free. Well, that's how it is in Iran. They don't like the people, the mosques are empty. They want to know about Jesus Christ. And so Venezuela, when I heard that was gonna pop open, I uh that then it happened. I put a call into the White House and I said, let me know the second that it's safe enough to land a plane and pass out food and supplies, and that we can do a stadium. They said it's not safe at all right now. You'd probably be killed in the first hour. Right now, there's a power vacuum and it's being run by cartels. So I said, okay, as soon as the new government comes in, let me know. Well, I kept this guy was checking in for me, and then finally the White House got upset and said, Stop calling. It'll probably be 18 months at minimum before you can go to Venezuela. Well, I'm in Kentucky in the middle of nowhere. And this guy that has a swimming pool company that installs swimming pools for casinos and big hotels, he said, I heard you want to go to Venezuela. He said, Let me show you something. And he scrolled on his phone, white guy from Florida. He said, This is a meeting I was in in Venezuela last week. He said there were 10,000 pastors gathered in the biggest auditorium that not the stadium, but the biggest indoor auditorium. And then he showed me the president, the woman president that's there right now, she was on the platform. And he said, I'm going back April 20th, which is in what three days? I'm going back April 20th to meet with all the pastors and set a crusade up. If you'd like to do the stadium meeting, we're setting one up, and we'll we'll make it so you can fly in. You can't fly straight from America to Venezuela. You're gonna have to stop in Colombia and go across. So we're headed there. Then I ran, those guys told me they said the second one of the cities is secure enough to go preach. I'm telling you, we're gonna be the first ministry in 1100 years or more to be able to go and preach open air and tell the Persian people Jesus loves you, He's a healer, He'll set you on high, He won't leave you in ruins, He'll pick you up on your feet. I'm telling you, this end time church is gonna do exploits for God. I can't wait to go to Venezuela, I can't wait to go to Iran. But tonight I'm in Big Spring, Texas to encourage men and encourage women and teenagers that you're not finished yet. You're a part of God's end-time agenda, and he has an outpouring of the Holy Spirit for you tonight. Can you say amen? They must say, Here I am, Lord, use me. So you be seated. What are you gonna preach when you go over there? You know, none of none of the anti-prosperity people are gonna go to Iran. They don't have planes, they don't believe in them. They could sail there, but it's six months and there's a naval blockade. They must say, jets move quickly. That's right. I don't have to wait till American Airlines and start alliance, start having flights into Tehran. The second it's open, I can move. Let me see that plane again. This was given to me by God, and the money to operate it was given to me. That's why it irritates me when people talk about uh these preachers with their jets. Who do you think gave me that jet? The devil? You know, we gotta admit it. Down here in hell, he's doing a great job. We're gonna give him a jet as a as a as a prize for leading so many people to Christ. No, I was preaching in Florida, and a guy came up to me when I finished preaching. He said, I just bought a Falcon 50, and it's gonna take me two years to get it ready to fly. When I do, I'm gonna give it to you. I didn't even take his name or number. I went like this. Like, you're nuts. People get excited in meetings and they say stuff they have no power to do. So I just thought, there's no way this guy has a plane, he's gonna give it to me. Year and a half later, he calls the office. Uh I met Jonathan a year and a half ago and told him I was gonna give him a Falcon 50, it'll be ready in another six months. Do you guys have a place to put it? I didn't even know you needed a place to put it. I was gonna park it in the back of a Walmart. So we'll get one. And right on two years to the day, it pulled around the corner like they were dropping off a rental car, and he got off and said, It's yours. These are your pilots. And um just fill it up with fuel, and there's like an insurance thing that we pay. That's it, zero dollars a month. Then he upgraded from the Falcon 50 when we started doing the churches. I guess he liked what I was doing, and he upgraded um when we started to go to California every week. That's a Falcon 900, that's the one Jesse DuPlanis had up until he upgraded to the 7X. So that Falcon is not only a great plane, it's the perfect plane for what I do. Because that third engine goes in reverse thrust when you land. So I can land at any airport in the United States, municipal airfields, dirt airfields, that thing can come to a complete stop in 2,000 feet. If you have a Gulf Stream, you can only land at international airports. Then the other advantage is with three engines, one of the engines can go out and you can still fly. You can still take off again with just the two. If two engines go out, you can still fly just not fast. And if all three engines go out, you ain't paying your tithes. I can tell you that right now. There's something, you got a mistress on there or cocaine, something's happening because you ticked God off. Who gave me that plane? These preachers with their jets. Let me ask you another question. When God gave me a jet, did I start staying home more? When the Lord gave me the plane, we had one church. We got four now. We have one in Pittsburgh, I'll be preaching at our one in Fort Worth Sunday. We got one in Arizona Saturday at 10 a.m. And Jesse DuPlantis will be at our church this Sunday in Santa Ana, California at 10 a.m. That the when God gives you money and possessions, when your heart's right with him, you'll compound what you do for God. Yes, money has taken God's place in people's heart, but it didn't do it to Abraham, didn't do it to Isaac, didn't do it to Jacob, didn't do it to David, and it's not gonna do it to you. I said it's not gonna do it to you. God is opening the windows of heaven and pouring out a blessing on his people to get the job done in 2026. Now, let me tell you, um, okay, so Japan gets conquered in World War II. General MacArthur, I believe it was, said to the United States, if you send 10,000 missionaries, Japan will become a Christian nation in one year. These people don't want their religion, they want our religion. And all denominations combined sent less than 90. And it went right back to where it was. And so I'm not, I know I'm saying a lot right now, but another thing that'll change in your life and cause you to go to another level is if you quit waiting for other people to do something, and you, the thing that God put in your heart. David didn't see Goliath and say, Boy, isn't it a shame that somebody doesn't kill him? How come nobody in the military? He said, if no one else is doing it, then I'm gonna do it. I don't belong preaching in Venezuela, I don't belong preaching in Iran. But since the doors open and everybody drags their feet, and God has gifted me with unusual things, I'm gonna use those things to drive the devil out everywhere I go. There's an anointing coming on you today to do great and mighty things for God. What others can't do, what others won't do, God is anointing you tonight to do. If you receive it, take 15 seconds, clap your hands, all you people. Shout unto God. Somebody shout hallelujah! Say it out loud: the Lord is good, and his mercy endures forever. You be seated. So, what are you gonna preach when you go over there? Dead religion is not gonna do anything in Iran. People are sick, people are hurting. By the time this all gets done and their power structures collapsed, the nation's gonna be in economic shambles. You can't go over there and preach it's good to be starving, it's good to be dying. You go over and preach Jehovah Jirah, that though the government is in shambles, God will take care of you in the midst of a famine. And you preach that God's a healer, and when all the hospitals are closed and bombed out, you can call on the name that is above every name, the name of Jesus Christ. I may go disappear over there for a while. I'm telling you right now, when that door comes open, I'm gonna tear through that place. The Middle East will be like Africa was in the 1950s. The whole Middle East will become Saudi Arabia on down the line, will become a major harvest field where tens of millions of people receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Can you say amen? So why is there such an attack on that message of power? Because, let me see 2 Timothy 3.5. Anybody getting anything out of tonight? 2 Timothy 3.5. They'll act in the last days, they'll act religious, but they'll reject the power that would make them godly. Have nothing to do with people like that. In the last days, there won't be a shortage of churches. There's 400,000 plus churches in the United States. More churches are started every year than the total number of mosques in the United States or total. Every year. I think there's 4,000 mosques in the United States or 3,800. And there's 410,000 churches. Well, that's like a book of Exodus sneeze. Man, I'm glad we're in 2026. Those two sneezes would have emptied the building uh if we were in 2021. Praise God. They will act religious, but they'll reject the power. So it's possible to have a form of godliness. Wear the right clothes, dress up in a robe, talk like this. As we've gathered here today, we remember that Jesus lived in this area of Galilee, which was a very arid climate. At this time of year, it'd be about 82 degrees, much like parts of Texas. And in that day, people were simple people, they wore sandals, they'll have a form of godliness, but they'll not only not have power, they'll get angry at the power. It would say, reject the power. So this is what my daughter dealt with. Her teacher teaching that people that preach that God will make you wealthy. Who made Abraham wealthy? Your answer was weak. Who made Abraham wealthy? Who made Isaac wealthy? Who made Jacob wealthy? Let me see Proverbs 10, 22. The blessing of the Lord makes a man not middle class, not needs met. The blessing of the Lord makes a man rich. The word's rich. Do you know what it means in the original Hebrew? Rich. That's why they translate it like that. And he adds no sorrow with it. Which means everybody says sorrow-free riches. Rich. Can't go to Iran off car washes and spaghetti dinners. Can't go to Iran having a taco feed for four dollars a plate for people that want to help. You're gonna rent a stadium and bring medical supplies and food. I believe Houston, Texas, and I had a guy call me up and prophesied after I was already feeling it. Get Joy to Houston ready. He said, This was the Lord getting you ready for what you're gonna do in the Middle East. You're gonna bring millions of dollars of supplies to people that need it, independent of the government, and see Jesus lifted high in those nations. Can you say amen? This is 1.2 million dollars of toys that we acquired by the gift of faith in 17 days. Watch.
SPEAKER_03We felt led by the Spirit to go to a section of Houston facing some of the highest levels of childhood poverty with one simple goal to bring joy and hope to the families in the city. When God speaks, you move quickly. Revival today went into action. And in just 17 days, this is practice. We initially planned to reach a few thousand people, but the advertising caught fire. In one week alone, turn it up a little sounds like National Public Radio. Paula White's ministry, the National Faith Advisory Board, Citiser, and others donated two 18-year-olds filled with over 22,000 toys to give children's gifts for Christmas.
SPEAKER_01I came to tell the devil something in Houston. Enough is enough! Ya es suficiente! It's time for the people of Houston to be free! I tell you in the name of Jesus! The tide is turning in your life today! Todo está cambiando atually! As hard as life used to be. Lo más difícil que la vida has been. Come to Jesus! It's gonna lift your heavy burden. He's gonna destroy the yoke of the devil! Struggling for food, no más escassez!
SPEAKER_02No more struggling for the place to leave. These are very poor people. You know? I wrote to the last guy that said, You prosperity preachers, try preaching that in Africa. I said, I go to Africa every year. I've never seen you there. It's actually only the reformed gospel that works in the suburbs and America. It takes the Holy Ghost, healing prosperity gospel to go and preach in the third world. They don't want to hear about your broke Jesus. And Jesus isn't broke, he holds all power in his hand. Continue.
SPEAKER_01No more struggling for a place to live. I'm gonna introduce you to somebody. Oh, I'm gonna go to Sina I. His name is El Shadow.
SPEAKER_03As Pastor Jonathan preached, tears filled the crowd and bondages were four. When the altar call was given, hundreds responded. In total, we saw 10,320 in attendance. And 710 people gave their lives to Christ. This is not the devil's time in America. This is America's time to come to Christ. Our generation will be saved.
SPEAKER_02Do you have uh do you have Santa Anna? I took the leftover twice. Everybody said God's a god of more than enough. We were stunned we had enough for all those people, and then it was so much it filled an 18-wheeler. So we took it to Santa Ana, Texas, uh uh California, where our church is there and did it again. Here it is. It's January.
SPEAKER_01The devil comes to steal kills. All Hispanic basically, but Jesus came the children. That person is you have to only take one person in the face. No more alcohol.
SPEAKER_02Jackamas. You see that? I don't know if you saw that old Hispanic guy with his hat up in the air. It was the most powerful thing. He was sitting listening to me preach, and then about halfway through the sermon, he went he took his hat off and put it over his heart, like out of reverence, like it was hitting him. Then he waited after, and in broken English, he said, Um, I under I get it now. I understand it now. And then he gave me a hug. That's California. Keep going. Everybody said that's practice. That's spring training. Devil, the devil, I'm gonna tell you right now, and I made a lot of money off of it while everybody was panicking about the economy with Iran. I bought options on everything you could buy options on in prediction markets and stocks and options that the thing was gonna rebound, because this is not a time for America to go down. This is a time for America to be blessed. God is blessing this nation. Oh, thank you. Five amens and a grunt. God, nice to be with you tonight at Our Lady of Ascension. I said, God is blessing this nation. God is blessing the people of Texas. Did you know that for all the junk people talk about America, America's so wicked and so far from God? First of all, you had 17% of Americans went to church during the Revolutionary War. It's at 43% right now. 66% of Americans today say they have made a personal commitment to Jesus Christ that's still important in their life today. And then 70 plus percent of all missions giving worldwide comes from the United States. Now, I don't have the statistics on this, but I do travel and I know where I'd bet if I could. If uh if 70% of all the money that goes to missions comes from the U.S., if you had to guess what state most of that money comes from, what would you pick? I'd pick Texas. So why do you do you think it's interesting? We should pull up that clip of my Uncle Ted two prayer and fastings ago. He said, I saw when I was praying, a black lake. And I said, What is that, Lord? And the Lord said, It's the he didn't even pronounce it right because he got it from Revelation. It's the Permian Basin. And he said, God said, I'm gonna bless Texas, and I'm gonna bless the people of Texas, and so much money is gonna come out of this place that it's gonna pay off the national debt of America, and America will be a lending nation only and not a borrowing nation. Can I tell you something? I'm looking at the men and women that right now are gonna go from glory to glory, victory to victory, and strength to strength. How your life started is not gonna be how your life finishes. You're getting stronger right now, you're getting more blessed right now. God is positioning you tonight to go and take the wealth of the wicked and bring it in the hands of the just. When you become a millionaire, you're not gonna throw wine and cigar parties, you're not gonna have a mistress, you're gonna build churches, you're gonna fund crusades, you're gonna do things for the kingdom and see that blessing multiply right in the face of the devil. I see you becoming a giant problem to the forces of hell, not by might, not by power, but by the spirit of Almighty God. If you receive it, let's take 60 good seconds and clap our hands and shout. Hallelujah! Clap your hands and shout. Your hand clap is announcing to the devil. His time is over. This is God's time for his people to be blessed. It's your season to be blessed. It's your season to be blessed. Say on your feet. Uh give me that scripture, Tessa. We went through fire, we went through flood. You caused men to ride over us, but you thou hast brought us into a wealthy place. I think it's Psalm 66.12. Could be wrong. We went through fire, we went through flood. Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads, but thou hast brought us into a wealthy place. Psalm 66, 12. KJV. Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water. But thou hast brought us in to a wealthy place. If I asked for a show of hands, every hand would go up. You've been through tests, you've been through trials. But you know what? Where are you tonight? Are we having this conversation in the back of a pool hall? Or at that uh at that lounge by uh uh the hotel I'm staying at? No. With everything the devil's thrown at you, child that died early, cancer in one of your family members, a spouse that divorced you, everything the devil hit you with, it wasn't even enough to keep you out of a revival meeting on a Thursday night. You've been through fire, you've been through flood, men have ridden over your heads, but here you are still standing in the house of God. I got news for you tonight. God's got a blessing with your name on it. I said, God has a blessing with your name on it. You stood the test, you're standing in God's house, you're lifting up holy hands without wrath or doubting unto God, and the windows of heaven are coming open over your life, pouring you out a blessing that's so great you don't have room enough to take it all in. I see a blessing being poured out over your life that's so great. Go ahead and lift your hands and just worship him out of your mouth a little bit. Worship him out of your mouth. I'm here in your house, God. I stood the test. You were tested, but you passed the test. Hallelujah. You're not sitting somewhere with a frown on your face talking about how hard life is. You're giving praise unto God, you're returning worship unto God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Let me pray for this gentleman in the peat shirt and this lady next to you in the white. What town did you guys come from? Sweetwater, take two steps forward. Lift both hands, close both eyes. God's healing both of your bodies right now, giving you the strength of your youth back to make one more run for God on planet earth. In Jesus' name. Anything that's in your body that wasn't planted there by God, the Lord takes it out. Put one hand on your chest, sir. As you do, your heart gets a quickening, strengthening touch. In Jesus' name. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Let me pray for this lady in the black vest. Here. Yes, come out to this side if you would. They'll let you out. What's attendance tonight? 252. It's up. Up every night. Praise God. This meeting's been like the NASDAQ the last four days. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Put one hand on your belly and one hand across your breasts. Any growth or painful lump internally or externally, the Lord takes it away right now. In Jesus' name. You'll never have breast cancer or any other kind of cancer. In Jesus' mighty name. Hallelujah. Praise God. Thank you, Jesus. And I already prayed for you. Let me see both your hands. You guys together? Yes. Father, thank you for giving them one more run. Today, God is unretiring you. He's gonna open a door for you to do a great work for him. In Jesus' name. Now I'm gonna take care of one thing that'll give you another 15 years. Put one hand across your lungs and put the other one on your mouth. The taste for that stuff, and then it'll never cause you any health problems. You're totally free. Get clean in Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Who else is I gonna pray for? I'll come back to me. Every head bowed, every eye closed. If you're here tonight, I'm gonna give two altar calls, and they're both extremely important. First one, make sure that you don't go to hell. Hell's a real place. There's a lot of denominations that don't believe hell's a literal place anymore. I don't think the Pope believes that anymore, or the Catholic Church they teach. They're not sure if there's a hell. I don't know how you can't believe in something that I can literally take and show it to you. I can take you to Hawaii and we can go to an active volcano and you can look down and see that exactly what God sits under the earth is there. A never-ending fire, which was prepared for Satan and his demons. But if you won't receive redemption by the blood of Jesus, God can't make you receive the sacrifice he gave for you. You have to willingly lay down your life as a sacrifice. I submit myself to you. And I don't have to tell you. In 2026, if you choose to not serve the Lord, this ain't 1981, where you can kind of just live a normal life but also not go to church, you're gonna end up in major problems because the Bible says, Satan, has it seemed like things have gotten worse for sinners? It's because it has. The Bible says Satan, knowing his time was short, declared war on the children of men. He can't attack God, so he can only hurt what God loves most, which is you. And the only protection. Let me pray for this lady in the gray. Uh you got letters on, it's a zip up and a yeah, come right out. Let me pray for you. Power of God's on you. Are you two related? So both sisters get a touch then. Hermannas. That means nuns. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Just like God healed your sister, God's healing you. It goes right through you. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. Amen. Praise God. I want to say it's my season to be blessed. If you're here, I want you to ask yourself the most important question you could ever ask yourself. Can you identify a specific time when you've um made things right with God publicly? Jesus said, if you confess me before men, I'll confess you before my Father that's in heaven. I went home and uh I was looking on the counter, and there was a court summons for my wife to appear in court on April 30th. And I called her because she didn't say anything. I said, What is this about you? You having to go to court? She said, Oh, I may have been going at a certain speed, in a certain speed zone. And she said, But the cop said he just he had compassion on me. He said, if you'll come to court, I'll speak up for you and I'll get it where you don't have to pay anything and it won't go on your record. So now that's what Jesus did for us. But what if my what if my wife blew off that appointment and just didn't go? And then if I said to my wife, whatever happened with that reckless driving charge, well, I hope it's all taken care of. I just hope the judge will consider what a good No way. Did you go to court? There was a thing for you to do to get that settled. That they extended compassion to you. Did you go or not? I just I don't feel like you have to go to courtroom. I feel like if you just and she comes up with her own stupid method, then she's gonna go to jail and force me to remarry. She's gonna go to jail because they gave her a specific way out of something that she messed up with and she blew it off. And right now, I mean, whatever you want to think about people in Iran or Iraq or Venezuela, what about you? For the rest of eternity, you're without excuse. Somebody came down to Big Spring, and whether you like me or not, I'm telling you the straight up way to get saved. I'm not telling you how to become my disciple, I'm telling you how to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. And have your whole record of sin cancelled out, put in the sea of forgetfulness, never to be remembered again. Sin, sin has a filthy feeling with it. You go to a club, the Bible says sin's pleasurable for a season. You go to a lounge, you go to a bar, you have fun in the moment, music's playing, then you get home, and there's like something you wish you could clean off of you that you can't clean off. And you try to smoke it away, you try to drink it away, and you try to prescription pill it away, you try to therapy it away, but there's nothing that'll wash it away. Only the blood of Jesus can wash away that filth and uncleanliness of sin that torments people. I want you to hear me. You know, I'm I'm starting to go back the the other way, like pendulum wash, because there's a long time where they would preach that if you were sick or you had problems, it was because you were in sin, which isn't always true. And so now they basically said, no, you know, it doesn't have anything to do with that. But I'm telling you, there's a lot of people that want prayer for fear and and panic, and they can't sleep at night and they're tormented. And it's because you're asking prayer for the branches on the tree. But you need to, if you've got a problematic tree in your yard, why cut the branch off every uh every year when you could just dig a hole around the root, the root, crack open some Dr. Pepper's, and grill some steaks and invite some friends over and line that thing with M250s and blow it up once and for all. That's what the blood of Jesus does. God isn't sprinkling you with his blood so you can get a little forgiveness. He washes you in his blood, he makes you a new creature where the alcohol and the cigarettes and the immorality and the pain and everything that sin brought is washed away. I want to pray that with you tonight. If you're here and you say, Jonathan, you watch it on TV and online. That's what we bought television time. Yeah, I'm still on, right? I'm still on for another 30 minutes. Because it's it's East Coast time, 1 until 11, East Coast time, 10, Texas time. If you're watching me, I'm I'm on live. If you have other Christian television on, those are repeats from eight months ago. They have no relevance to your life right now. But I'm on with you live. And I want you to pray. They're gonna put something at the bottom of the screen so you can get saved. That's it. I'm not gonna show up at your house and ask for 20 bucks. I want you to go to heaven. And if you're here tonight, then you need to make Jesus Christ your Lord publicly. When I got married on September 23rd, 2006, I stood at an altar with my wife and made public vows before a congregation of people. And that's the difference between a wife, a girlfriend, and a fiance. All three love the guy, but only one has stood and made a vow at an altar. Jesus is not coming back for people who date him or who are engaged to him, he's coming back for a bride that have forsaken all others and stood at an altar. If you say, Jonathan, that's me tonight in this final hour of time. I'm committing my life to Jesus Christ. I'm saying goodbye to the devil, goodbye to sin, and I'm making Jesus Christ my Lord. Quickly put your hand up bold and wave it at me. I'm gonna pray with you right now. I see you, I see you. Who else? I see you in the back. Who else? Who else? Yes, more lift the damn break tonight. Yes, yes, young people, awesome. Very quickly, everyone the lift of the hand, come out of your seat and come and join me at the altar. We're gonna pray. Go ahead, sister creator.
SPEAKER_05Come everyone the lift of the hand. Jesus. One can wash away my seats. Nothing but the blood of Jesus. And what can make me all secret? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Oh precious is that flow that makes me wine as snow. Nothing but the blood of Jesus. The blood of Jesus, nothing but the blood of church is the flower and makes the white as snow. No, no other found I know. Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
SPEAKER_02That's everybody. Lift both your hands to the Lord and say this from your heart. You're not, this isn't a recital like to join the Knights Templar or whatever. This is a prayer to a living God. But some people have never prayed, so I'm gonna give you the words to say, but make him your words. And you're talking to a real God. You don't see him, but he sees you, and one day you will see him. And now, thanks to this, you won't meet him as your judge, you'll meet him as your father. Say this out loud. Heavenly Father, I've come forward today to give you my life. Forgive me of all my sins. Wash me in your blood. I believe in my heart you raised Jesus from the dead. I confess with my mouth, Jesus is Lord and my Savior. Right now, I receive forgiveness. By the blood of Jesus, I am saved. I am forgiven. I am clean. In Jesus' name. Amen.
