Exodus 15, verse 22. This is the second book of the Bible. Actually, before I read that, do Psalm 107.20. Do Psalm 107 17 to 20, just so people know what uh the psalmist is talking about. Or as the guy that plays video game hockey with me on my team, my screen name is Psalm 7218, and he calls me Passalm. Because he's a heathen. Passalm, pass the puck. Some were fools, they rebelled and suffered for their sins. Say something with me. Say sin brings suffering. I grew up on uh the Pentecostal holiness wing of the assemblies of God, and they taught the opposite. Not that sin brought, well, no, they kind of did, in a way, roundabout, teach that sin brought blessing. They would say things like, When I was in the world, I was making money, but then I got saved. It's like the bottom dropped out on life once you came to Jesus, and things go down when you serve Christ while you're on the earth, but one day it'll be worth it when you're in heaven. The Bible says in 1 Timothy 4 8, physical exercise profiteth little. That's the scripture I quote when my wife asked me to join her at the gym. Physical exercise profiteth little, but do King James. This says training for godliness. King James says, but godliness is profitable unto how many things? Godliness is profitable unto all things. Any area of life as you submit to the Bible begins to flourish instead of go down. So uh Psalm 107.17. Some were fools and they rebelled and suffered for their sins. So the Bible doesn't teach there's a blessing for serving the devil, and then you have a rough time once you start serving God. It actually says the way of the transgressor is hard. Some were fools and they rebelled, they suffered for their sins. The wages of sin is death. Sin, just like following the Bible, brings a profiting to every area of life. Even um, even when people try to convince you otherwise. I was talking with somebody yesterday that works in sales, and there's different jobs that, well, if you want to get promoted here, you know, we go to the bar uh uh after five, and that's where the deals are made. So you need to come too. Well, for them, they do need to go. If you're not gonna serve Jesus, then you gotta do whatever the devil tells you to do to get blessed. And then you're gonna pay the blessing back. One preacher said, for every dollar the devil gives you, you'll pay him back ten if you live to spend it. That's a fact. But then God has a different way. Oh, thanks for bringing me my notes, but it's the same exact sermon, and there it's right here. But now I gotta back up, so thank you. I feel like somebody's got a main gun and a sidearm now. What was I saying? Yeah, there's a there's there's a penalty for sin. But then if you serve the Lord, God starts to bless you where you actually, God will go out of his way to make it where you don't have to do anything that the world's doing, and everything works for you. I was talking with um, you're not supposed to name drop, so we'll call him Desi Ju Planis. I was talking to that unnamed individual on the phone today, and we were we we were talking about um our aircraft and how uh he said he was talking about sometimes they'll stop him coming back into America and search the plane and stuff. And I've heard rumors, that's why I don't do anything. I won't even take like meat back from another country if it's not allowed, because I know they I've heard rumor in Pittsburgh. He has that jet because he's doing secret stuff for the cartels, and they give him that plane. Well, anybody that's ever worked for the cartels here, you don't have to raise your hand, but if you have, they don't give you a plane, they give you some money, they don't buy an aircraft for everybody that's trafficking drugs, that's unprofitable. So the world actually has to come up with crazy reasons why you're blessed when you stay on the path of God because it doesn't make sense. You're not doing anything they're doing, you're not worried like they are. I remember when I worked um in telemarketing when I was 19 at Bible college, there were 72 full-time employees, and a rumor went that they were gonna lay off 50 of them. And so we worked uh 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. You could stay till 10 if you wanted. So uh the rumor at about 5 o'clock was that they were gonna dismiss 50 people. And people were crying. Nobody had even been dismissed yet. What are you gonna do if they dismiss me? I don't know. I just signed a new lease on a house, I just got a card, I don't know what I'll do. They're going around like that. I wasn't being sarcastic or mean, but when they came to me and said, What are you gonna do if they dismiss you? I went, five o'clock? Probably go get a cheeseburger. It's dinner time. I'm not worried about tomorrow. My life is not wrapped up in anything. God can use things on this earth to help me, but my help comes from the Lord who made the heavens and the earth. Can you say amen? They can't understand why why you you got plenty, you're not worried, you're not paying anybody off, you're not any of the things they're at, doing whatever the things they do to get money. Your life begins, you suffer, fools rebelled and suffered for their sins. The Bible says the way of the transgressor is hard. Sin makes life hard on the flip side when you serve God. Godliness is profitable. Say with me, godliness is profitable unto all things. Holding value in the life that now is, and let me see that again, 1 Timothy 4.8, even though I made you change it. 1 Timothy 4.8, holding value or profit in promise in the life. Look at that part, in the life that now is, and in the life that is to come. Now, anybody that tells you, um, and I use this as an example, I'm not trying to hit out at an individual, and I've never said the name or the school. But my my daughter uh came in, I picked her up from school and she seemed like dejected a little bit. I said, What's wrong? She said, My Bible teachers said that there's what's called fringe Christianity, which they're not really Christians and they pretend to be. Jehovah's Witness, Mormons, and people that teach that healing and blessing is for today. Well, now I'm interested. Now I feel like changing into my call of duty character and coming back to the school. And uh I said, What did you say? She said, I just kind of laughed. I don't think she hangs around the right people. I thought that was a pretty mature answer. Her answer was better than what I was thinking. Can you say amen? So I said, Well, what how could she teach that? She said, She said that God does bless you, but he does it in heaven. I said, then, you know, that's what they all teach. But you got a problem. Having promise of the life that now is, and the life that is to come. Does Satan wait till you go to hell to make your life hell if you serve him? And God doesn't wait till you die to make your life heaven. Deuteronomy 11. If you'll do what I tell you to do, teach these things to your children, write them on the doorposts of your home. It'll be, as it were, days of heaven on the earth. I'm gonna tell you, you better get this revelation in your spirit because who knows what they've got planned down the pike. I believe we're in a little bit of a window of grace because we have um, whether you like President Trump or not, he's not with the globalist agenda. The UN just tweeted yesterday that they're going bankrupt because the U.S. isn't giving them any funding. He's not in that direction. So it's hindering a lot of what's done. But you already hear about that boat with a virus that's got a death rate 40 times more than COVID. All those things are never gonna go away. Jesus said there'll be an increase of plagues, wars, rumors of wars, wonders in the heavens. That's what this the whole space stuff is about now. And uh they said you need to prepare the church. The one people you should have to prepare are people that are under 35. If you're my age or older, you already lived through this in the 80s and 90s. Ex-files and alien abductions. And then if you're in your if you're in your 70s or 80s, you've lived through it twice. You were in the the the Roswell discovery, then then Star Trek, where everybody was alien obsessed. The devil has no new tricks. Everything just keeps coming in waves. But the word of God doesn't come in waves. The word of God makes you stronger and stronger and stronger. And while the world's in trouble, you're not in trouble. You don't have a crisis, you have Christ. Can you say amen? If you believe it, give the Lord a great hand clap one more time. Praise God. Godliness is profitable unto all things, holding promise in the length that now is. You don't have to die to get healed. Now put put um, and this is what I want to address yesterday. So the assemblies of God that I told you I grew up in, you had Azusa Street. Can you grab, can you grab the Azusa Street video? You have it. Man, you're in the gifts. This will help you understand what you're sitting in today. Because every church taught that the things you read about in the book of Acts were for the church to get established, and then once God established the church, those gifts were withdrawn. And then some of you came from churches where they still teach that, and they're all emptying out now. Because there's a scripture in the New Testament. We have not the spirit of this world, we have the spirit of Christ. Say that out loud. I have not the spirit of this world. I have the spirit of Christ. Now, there will be no middle ground on that from now till the rapture. You're either going to make a choice to get full of the Holy Ghost, or you're going to be scared out of your britches about aliens and earthquakes and some cruise ship where three people died. And the Bible says things will get so intense before the rapture that men's hearts will fail them because of the fear. I mean, you got the the Dow hit a record, or no, SP 500 hit a record high today. I think NASDAQ did, but I could be wrong on that. If it's not high, it's high, high. And you still got people worried about the what do you think about the economy? Oh, the high the best economy in the history of the world? And you're still worried? What are you gonna do? It would do a lot of people well to travel overseas to third world countries. Where's uh my Abraham at? Now Abraham was telling me that somebody made some knock against prosperity on their ministry website, and he told him. He said, Why don't you come to where I'm from in West Africa? And we don't have you're you're typing on a phone. You're in a climate control. If you're in Section 8 housing, it's illegal for it not to have air conditioning. You have the blessing, and if you find a way to get out of the spirit of faith, you'll worry in a mansion. You have to be on nine different medications to go to sleep in a 7,000 square foot house that's paid off. But when you're full of the spirit of God, they can beat you and throw you in prison and you'll pray and sing praises unto God and bust your way out and turn that place into a church. That's what's coming into you tonight by impartation. In Jesus' name. Good job finding that scripture. 1 Corinthians 2.12. Now we have received not the spirit of this world, but we have received the spirit that's of God. Now, when we play what we're about to play, everybody that rejected that now has a rainbow flag on the outside of their church and average attendance. Let me ask you a question. When people started putting a rainbow flag on the outside of their church to be more inclusive, did people start pouring in in the attendance crew or did it empty out? Who's the head of the church? Jesus. If you cross him up, he'll let you know pretty quick who's in charge. So he just pull the plug, shut the engine off, and it can drift down the highway for a little bit, but it's over. I read about a church that sold off a billion dollars of their assets and has to sell off four billion dollars more of assets to pay for all uh um their lawsuits after they left and rejected this thing. You that's why the when you when you pay attention to it, the real persecution or hatred in the world is not against church or churches, it's a certain kind of church. It's people I heard Joy Behar say it on the view. I don't have any problem with people praying. But when you say you can hear God talking back to you, that's a mental problem. That's right. They don't want you to believe that there's actual power to change your life. Because if you're gonna institute communism, you have to get people to believe that the state is your protector, the state is your healer, the state is your provider, the state is your God. But the Bible cuts the rug, cuts the legs out from under that because you realize if God be for me, who can be against me? If every man is for me and God is against me, I'm in major trouble. But if every man is against me and God is for me, I'm going straight to the top in the face of my enemy. That's where you're going in Jesus' name. Someone say, God is for me. We've not received, we have received not the spirit of this world, but the spirit which is of God, that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Isn't that interesting how that goes with that? We have received the Spirit of God that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God. So once you get saved, there are things that have been freely given. Just because they're freely given doesn't mean you have them. They're in your account, and just like you can starve to death with three million dollars in your account if you don't know how to work an ATM machine, you don't know how to access your money. What is the access point to what God puts in your account? Starts with an F and rhymes with Baith. Faith. And what is faith? Faith is believing God's word in your heart, speaking God's word with your mouth, and then taking whatever uh required action the Bible says in that area. You can't just believe and speak healing, you have to lay hands on the sick. Can't just believe and speak tithing, then the blessing. You have to tithe and give. So you believe it, you speak it, and then you do it. Can you say amen? Probably could add a fourth thing, and then after you do it, praise God that it's done. In everything, give thanks. For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. And so you're never trying to grasp for something that's not yours. All these things, hallelujah, are in your heavenly account. And as you stay in the Bible and let it come into your heart, and then don't let it bottle up in your heart. All these politicians talking about they have a private faith. There's no such thing as a private faith. The Bible says, in when Paul wrote to the church in Corinth, anytime you hear a preacher say when Paul wrote to the church in Corinth, it means he's not sure whether it's first or second Corinthians. When Paul wrote to the church in Corinth, he said, We have the same spirit of faith the psalmist had, who said, I believe God, and therefore I speak. We therefore believe God, and so we speak. The real faith is the speaking faith. If I get a chance to play it tonight, and I play you that lady from Kentucky whose lungs got destroyed from lung cancer and chemotherapy, and then she got healed. And then she decided after she got healed that she was gonna buy a house, even though her husband just died. And she said, I had five friends tell me you're making a mistake. You're not gonna be able to pay for that. And she said, after the fifth one did it, she was with them all, she said, I just said, Well, I just believe Jesus is gonna help me. That's called speaking faith. And I found that out because that night when I was preaching, the Lord's, I was getting ready to come to the meeting, and the Lord said, Remember that lady that got healed? I want you to take care of her house payments until she goes to heaven. So I said, Where do you live? Are you in like assisted care? Do you have an apartment? Do you live with somebody or do you have your own house? That's when she said, I just bought a house. I said, What's the mortgage payment? You know, it's kind of wild questions to ask somebody. I'm like Dwight Schrood asking people what their mortgage payment is in public. She told me, she says $2,200. I said, All right. I said, uh, I'm gonna pay. No, actually, I asked after, I said I was gonna pay it. I said, I'm we're gonna pay that. Our ministry's gonna pay that from now to when you go to heaven. And that's when she told me. She said, You know, I just bought a house and I had five friends tell me that I have no way to pay that, and you're making a mistake, and finally I just got upset and said, I just believe Jesus is gonna help me. And Jesus heard her say that and gave me a little tap on the shoulder and said, Help that lady. Now, I'm gonna tell you how giving and receiving works. Who gave me a tap on the shoulder to say to pay for her? Jesus. So do you think he's gonna make me use my money? Or do you think that he'll supply it all? Plus a bonus. That's right. That's why it's more blessed to give than to receive. What I'm telling you is God has a flow for your life. When you are led of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit never leads you backwards, he leads you forward, and he never leads you into catastrophe, he leads you into blessing. And even if it looks like it's a catastrophe. You know, that's what that's what people don't understand this. What about Paul? First of all, if you read the life of Paul and you see a continual struggler, you and I are reading the same book. Paul was thrown in prison. Yeah, for like 11 minutes. Threw him in prison. He prayed and sang praises unto God, and the prisoners heard him. And suddenly there was a mighty earthquake. The chains of every prisoner fell off, and every prison door was open. And he called to the jailer. The jailer, thinking everyone had escaped, went to kill himself, and Paul called out, Don't kill yourself, we're all here. And then what was the next thing that happened in verse 29? He called for a light. So how did Paul know that he was going to kill himself in the dark? Because it was midnight and the light wasn't on. He could feel that spirit of suicide. I mean, that guy was a Holy Ghost man. He's the guy that said, I thank God I speak in tongues more than y'all. So instead of just running out of prison, he felt that that jailer getting ready to take his length. The same guy that ordered his beating and whipping, and he said, Hey, don't kill yourself. We're all here. Baptist Bible scholars tell us that jailer became the pastor of the church in Philippi. What the devil means for evil, God takes it and turns it for good. That's why anytime there is persecution or trouble, you should have your faith set. Not only am I going through this, I'm coming out the other side with a testimony, and the devil has to pay me back seven times what he took. Can you say amen? So people thought all this stuff died out. That was for then. Now think of this. Even without going into a theological breakdown, the church can't be established in the first century in the Roman Empire, and then it's established. The church actually has to be re-established in every generation or it dies. Canada wasn't always Islamic and atheistic and almost no church attendance. Another generation let it slip. Empty altars on Sunday. It's literally warfare against the devil. I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. There's warfare against churches being built. Because any state with weak churches becomes weak. And any state like this one, Pastor Michael's been spoken to, and uh Pastor Ray Jean, and there's others here, uh uh Pastor Zee and John that came down. When God speaks to people to pioneer churches, I hate that word plant. You pioneer it. There's stuff that needs fought. You need a musket, not a shovel. And you you pioneer that church and you stay there when they try to run you out or sue you, or they send people to count heads, and you find out you're the only place they've counted for seating capacity to shut it down in the last five years. You realize the reason there's a hatred against it is because the devil knows he can't stop one church that's full of the Holy Ghost. That's why God is raising up hundreds and thousands of new, fresh, fire-filled churches in California. I will tell you something. The devil has no plan to stop what God's doing in this state. Can you say amen? So tell me how the church can get established. Two thousand years ago, it's just done. Like all the same people are still alive, and nobody backslides or anything. You have to have a fresh outpouring of the Holy Ghost and a hunger preached into people in every generation. And that's my job. That's what I've the churches I pastor were as an outgrowth of that. The evangelistic crusades are an outgrowth of that. My main thing is I refuse to leave my generation in worse shape spiritually than it was when I was born. I can't help what happened in the 60s and 70s. I wasn't around. 80s, you gotta cut me some slack. I was like five. But I sure have a say now. I sure do. And that's my passion. I love what God loves, and I hate what God hates. With a passion. I was preaching, we got. Four churches Texas, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and California. So you can't pin this down to one place. But I was preaching in one of the prisons by one of our churches, and I got notified a week after. Everybody say, power. I there was like 11 violent offenders. And um I said to him, which even listening to myself talk at the time, I was thinking like, what are you doing? I said, uh, listen, I know there's other ministries that come in here besides our church, right? All the guys nodded their head. And I said, Um, I'm sure they cover the basics with you, and the basics are important. I said, but today I'm gonna talk to you all like you're preachers. I said, because if I was visiting a prison in Philippi in the first century, I would think I was just talking to violent offenders, but one of the guys that was there would be an apostle. So I'm just gonna assume you're all in that case and you were all wrongly convicted, and uh you're gonna come out of here and do something great for God. I said, so I'm not gonna talk to you like you're prisoners or like you're elementary and in your understanding. So I flipped to Ephesians 1, started talking to them about Christianity, and I told everybody say power. Where are the power sources? There's power in the Bible, there's power in speaking the Bible. And so I was, I don't know what the deal was. Maybe because it was like early in the morning. I think it was at 9 a.m. That's not my time. I can stay up till nine, better than I can wake up at first something at nine. And uh so I just was different. And so the one guy raised his hand while I'm talking, and he goes, What about Buddhist meditation? Can you do that? Not me. He's like, Can I do that? The full southern's you. I said, uh, I said, you can do whatever you want. And they, when this came out of my mouth, I was thinking, like, this isn't, you know, there's all kinds of people there. It's prison. And there's the people that are gathered, and then there's people sitting that didn't gather that are all in earshot and can go to you. And there's one guard with a gun with nine to eleven bullets, and there's 30 some of them. So I only got to see in math, but that's not good. So in my mind, I never would say something like this, but when he said that, I said, you can do whatever you want. I said, but I'm gonna tell you, all of you guys, right now, every other religion and all foreign religions are greatly inferior to Bible Christianity. I said, Whatever power they have, I said, you take the highest person in any other religion and whatever power they have. A newborn Christian that's been a Christian for 10 days has a hundred times what their highest person has. And I felt, I'm telling you, I was thinking, whoa. And then you could feel like a shockwave go. Well, you know what I found out after? The record, I can't remember what they call it in prison, it's like coded or something, like code or coded, where they have to call for outside help for people to come and subdue someone and get them out of there. The record that they've had to do that in a day is two. There were four after I left. Yeah. Flared the devil up. The devil does not like bold preaching. We order you to preach and teach no more in the name of Jesus. You can have lessons, you can meet together, you can have meals, but stop boldly preaching about Jesus Christ. I'll tell you another place while I'm getting wound up. I was I I go to get my hair cut at this place in Arizona. It's an interesting barber shop. They're all Russian, and if you know anything about Russia, there's all kinds of people there. You got Western Russia, the California Russia, that's up against the Middle East, Kazakhstan. You got the Northwest, Washington and Oregon of Russia, that's up against Europe, so that's like European, bottoms like Arab and Islamic, and then you have Eastern Russia, which is butted up against Europe or Japan and Mongolia and China. So you have Asian up in there. So it's all different. So there's all these Russians. One's a young Muslim that does UFC training, the second guy's an old Jewish Muslim, and the guy who's cutting my hair is uh just Russian, hard-drinking Russian. You know, he doesn't even have any interest in God. I'm trying, but I'm not making too much progress. He still calls me father. I've told him nine times I have a wife and kid. I showed him the pictures. Hello, father. So the the the the younger Muslim uh barber, it was 8 30 in the morning. You know, I was getting my hair cut before church. And and this young, you know, and hadn't slept that much, so maybe that's good. Maybe I should do that more. Because then it's just all spirit. I'm and I knew it was the Holy Ghost because with no sleep, 8 30. You may not believe this. How I'm kind of like yelling now and sweating. I'm very calm. Like, I don't like, you can say whatever you want. I'm not looking to get involved. I'm looking to get home, have some ice cream, play some video against me and my family. I'm not looking to like solve the world's problems. So when it when it pops out of me with like a fierceness, I know it's God. And this guy said, Um, oh, you're a pastor. He said, Did you know Jesus never actually claimed to be the Son of God? And I've been hearing this. I've been hearing Islamic people say it. I've been hearing uh Episcopalian and United Methodists and rainbow flag churches, like the that lady I played last night. Jesus is not the only way to heaven. He never claimed to be the way to heaven. There's an attack right now on the Lordship of Jesus Christ. But every person that's launching that attack is gonna find out what every person found out for the last 2,000 years. Jesus Christ is King of kings, Lord of Lords. He's alive, he holds all power in his hand, and you're not gonna stop the propagation of his message. Can you say amen? Whether you believe me or not, I can't control. But when that guy said that, my reaction was gonna be to go like this. I'm getting a haircut. You got scissors, you do UFC training, and you're a Muslim, and I'm seated and unarmed. I'm not looking to get stabbed. And I'm gonna say Muslim stab people, some of them get a little get a little stabby if you watch the news. So when he said Jesus never claimed to be the son of God, I'll also be honest with you about something. I can't tell you that in my head at that time I knew any scriptures in my head that would have like refuted that. I was just tired. And this popped out. I said, Oh yeah? Jesus never claimed to be the son of God. I went, Are you sure? When you say, Are you sure? It makes people unsure. He said, Yeah. He only claimed to be a rabbi and a teacher, but he didn't claim to be God. I said, Then why did all the rabbis and teachers kill him? If he was just claiming he was no different than them. He didn't know the answer to that. See, they give people one phrase to say, like, and they they don't even they're gonna go to hell because they memorize something their humanities professor taught him. The Bible's full of errors. Name one. I just heard a guy say that. So I said, Where is that? He said, uh well, he just I said, No. I said, You want to know what the Bible says? The Bible says that Jesus said, He that's seen me has seen the Father, and before Abraham was, I am. And they said, Are you claiming to be the Son of God? And he said, Thou hast said. And at this they picked up rocks to stone him. I said, Then why at that point? They go, No, no, no, you misunderstood me. He actually doubled down on it and they put him on the cross because he is the son of God and he claimed to be the son of God. And I said this, I said, You don't have to believe it, but don't go walking around telling people that because you don't know what you're talking about. He said, Well, how do you even know your Bible is correct? It's been translated so many times. I said, How do you know the Quran's correct? He said, Because we have the original copies. I said, What do you think? We threw all ours away. And the Jew laughed, and the alcoholic laughed. I don't know if he's an alcoholic because I think when you're Russian, no matter how much you drink, it has like no effect. Got a blood alcohol content that's Miguel Cabrera's batting average, and he's still fine to drive. They all laughed. He thankfully went back to his seat, and uh, and then the the j the old Jewish guy got interested. So tell me about what you do. I said, you know what I'm saying? I said, what I just did, seated with you cutting my hair, I do it in a suit and tie standing up. Tell people that Jesus is the Messiah. So then I said, He's like a good, I like that guy. I liked him a lot. I liked him, he's he's he's a he's like a kind-hearted guy. And he goes, Um, I said, let me ask you something since this guy brought it up. I said, How do you read Psalm 22, 23, and 24 and not see that Jesus is the Messiah? He said, I don't, I don't know. He didn't even know the scriptures. So then I said, let me ask you another question. I said, I'm just curious because I've never been to synagogue. I said, You go to synagogue? He said, every Saturday. I said, let me ask you a question. Do they do music there? And if they do, what instruments? He went, no music. I said, why not? He said, I don't I don't know. I said, you know, that's your thing. He no, he said, you that's your thing in church. I said, no, it was your thing. I said, you know David, right? That's like one of your top three guys. I said, you know, he was a musician musician, right? He said, yeah. I said, do you have your Bible? Or I said I mean say Bible, whatever you call it. Do you have your scriptures? He said, I do. I said, just get it real quick, because it's in another one, I couldn't read it. I don't know whether he had it in Hebrew or Russian. I said, uh, either way, I'm not gonna be able to read it. I said, uh, read me Psalm 150. So put put some, we're in the barber shop, and I got my barber preaching to me. Let me see Psalm 150, verse one. Praise ye the Lord. This is this wasn't written in charisma. This is Psalm 150. Praise ye the Lord, praise God in his sanctuary, praise him in the firmament of his power, praise him for his mighty acts, praise him according to his excellent greatness, praise him with the sound of the trumpet, praise him with the psaltery and harp, praise him with the timbrel and dance, praise him with stringed instruments and organs, praise him on the loud cymbals, praise him upon the high-sounding cymbals, let everything that has breath praise the Lord. And so when he read it, I didn't like have to make a first, he went like this, huh? I said, So see, David said that when we come to God's presence, we're supposed to do it with music. He went, Yeah, that's true. Then he went like this. What else is in here? And that's what I'm spending basically my whole life telling people that go to church and don't know there's other stuff in there. There's not just a path to heaven, there's healing, there's strength, there's blessing, there's deliverance, there's power over the devil, there's answered prayer, there is a host of things that God made available to you, and they're dropping on you tonight in Jesus' name. If you receive it, give the Lord a big haircut one more time. Shout your shout at everything that has prayer. Where's the scripture, Tessa? But but we don't believe this applies to people like you. We believe you're meant for better things, things that come with salvation. It's either Ephesians, it sounds Ephesians-ish or Hebrews-ish. But we believe that you're meant for better things, things that come with salvation. It's in the NLT. You're meant for better things, things that come with salvation. While she's looking that up, you want to know? Every time you take a stand for God, whether you see it immediately or not, there's always a blessing. I want to tell you something. Say this with me. Expect a blessing. Now let's make it personal. Say from today, I'm gonna expect a blessing. Because just like there's a curse for sin, there's a reward for standing for righteousness. And my my my daughter's teacher doesn't know it, but that's not my problem. You don't have to wait till you die to get it. God will bless you in the land that He swore to give you. Can you say amen? Hallelujah. How can you I don't have any interest? That's why I haven't responded. I'm not getting involved. But I would, like if I could talk to that lady. I don't care to, but if I could. If you say all of the blessings of God are for heaven, then what what's the clothing part? Don't why worry ye about what to wear? Not in heaven. Here my mom didn't have enough clothes, uh, or money to buy clothes for for me to start school in first or second second grade. And um my dad was away preaching overseas, I think. And she didn't have any money. And but we prayed, and she prayed, and we go to church that day. You know, this is before Facebook, so this isn't an answer to prayer that was actually drummed up by begging on Facebook. I don't know where I'm gonna get clothes for my son, but I know God will make a way. P.S. He sihs. That that's not that'll make you unfollowed. There's nobody to tell, even if she wanted to tell anybody. And we go to church, I remember this as clear as day. And I'll say the people's names because they deserve to be recognized. The lady's name was Sherry Moyer, and she walked up to my mom and like apologetically said, Hey Judy, that's my mom's name. I I'm sure you have, and I was dressed nice, I was growing and didn't have enough new clothes for the school to start. This is summertime. So I'm fine, I'm not like coming to school. I I looked fine. She goes, Judy, I'm sure you have. But I was just thinking, Joshua, my son, is a year older than your son. And he just outgrew all his clothes, and I was getting ready to take him to Goodwill or throw them away. Most of them have been worn once. There's all Ralph Lorenz stuff. They were like a well-to-do family. They were roofers and they owned a roofing company. She said, but then when I went to I went to throw it away or get rid of it, I thought of your son. And so, oh, you don't have to take them, but I got two trash bags of of clean Ralph Florent clothes for your son. And there, God didn't give me an outfit to start school with, God loaded me down with nice clothes. Can you say amen? Because he provides clothes. He doesn't just provide, he gave you specific things that he said he'd provide. Why do you worry about what to wear? Why do you worry about where to live? Why do you worry about what to eat or drink? For your father clothes the lilies, your father feeds the animals, and you mean more to him than they do. So my my father will take care of how many of these things. How could you read that? And there's no way theologically, anyway, to say that's talking about heavenly clothes, heavenly food, and a heavenly house. I'm certainly feel like going back to Pittsburgh. Fly back, have a meeting with the teacher, fly back tomorrow. I don't I don't understand. And I try to get off of this. If you've been listening to me preach, I've been bringing it up here and there because I'm not over it. Because to me, it's it's extremely evil to have a group of 13-year-olds and tell them God doesn't bless you. Now, if and the one time I did contact the school, that's what I told them. I said, you guys can teach whatever you want. I'm not telling you because I give money to the school and we send students to the school that you gotta do what I say. But I'm gonna tell you, if my daughter has to go to school armored up to defend her beliefs, then just like she would at Christian at a public school, then there's no use me paying tuition. So just let me know. If you're gonna teach my daughter that her father is a heretic and her church is no different than a Jehovah, I can feel my blood press. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6. Blue skies, green grass, Pacific Ocean. If you're gonna tell my daughter that and she's gotta defend her beliefs, just let me know. And then I threw this in. I said, if you're gonna say that our prosperity people, because this is what she taught them, the people that believe in prosperity, all they want is money. I said, I actually have an email from you that was sent this morning from the school asking if we could donate $10,000 uh to the school budget. I said, Do you have any emails from me asking for money? No. So it's interesting, you don't believe in prosperity, but you want my money. I saw a preacher right online and he's he's absolutely correct. He said the prosperity message pays for all other messages. Because the only reason, even like a reformed church or an Episcopalian church, the only reason they have anybody in those churches that have extra money to give is they heard somebody else tell them that God will prosper you and bless you. Put Psalm, uh, there it is. Dear friends, even though we're talking this way, we really don't believe it applies to you, because he was saying negative stuff. We are confident that you are meant, you. For better things. Things that come with salvation. So you can deduct from that if salvation is getting right with God, which it is, repenting of sin, believing in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, and confessing with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. Then if you're not the thief on the cross that's pinned to it to a cross, then you should get baptized and go to church. The thief on the cross was not shown as an example for thief on the cross didn't have a pastor. Okay, let me know how that works out for you. There's exceptions if you're being put to death. Can you say amen? But after, you should follow the other things. You should have a pastor, you should be faithful to God's house. Why? Because those that appear before God at Mount Zion, they go from strength to strength. Can you say amen? God doesn't just save you, He gives you a path to walk. Then as you walk that path, you're not only not gonna have the bad things happen, it doesn't apply to you, for we are confident that you are meant for better things, things that come with salvation. So just like that guy in the barber shop had no clue that there was music because they never told him. My mom doesn't matter, I'm not picking on synagogues. My mom went to Polish Catholic Church and uh they never taught her anything. They're even told her how to be born again. And people go to church fairly regularly, and they couldn't tell you, they don't know anything. You know, I need healed. What scriptures guarantee you're healing? He's still in the healing business. That's not a scripture. I agree with you, but that's not the word of God. The word of God, I'm telling you, it's amazing that reading that, reading the book of Ephesians to those inmates set the devil off like he's never been set off in that prison, and they're still reeling from the results. I wish I could tell you the rest. Still working. Hallelujah. You can mute me online? Let me know when I'm muted. You think the devil's just gonna go, well, no. This move with the alien thing is on the heels of that to try to redirect people in another direction. But I want to tell you something. That stupid, sniffling, weak, effeminate, spineless, toothless being called the devil is gonna get his butt kicked worse in the second half of this year than he did in the first half of this year. This is not a negotiation. We are not in a struggle. I said we're not in a struggle 2,000 years ago. Jesus won the victory and he gave that victory to the church! Receive that victory! Somebody shout power! You can be seated. Power! What kind of power? Can you print out my notes from Sunday, Tessa? I'll tell you, like 15 powers that you get. And this isn't even all of them. I was actually thinking of ones I forgot about. I'll do them while I'm remembering. Put Genesis 8. What kind of power? When you get filled with the power, how come that guy's son got saved? Because the Bible says there's power that you and your house will serve the Lord. I love, man, I love being a preacher. I love everything about the ministry other than packing and unpacking. That one I gotta figure out. But uh all the rest of stuff I like a lot. And I I like that there can be a father and son in prison. Now there's a father and son saved. It must, must, you know, think of impartation. Think of what you get from your father. My dad's a preacher, I'm a preacher. His dad's a criminal, he's a criminal. But all it takes is one person in a family to get saved. And everything breaks. And let me tell you this while I'm at it. How many know, though, after you get saved, there's still demonic power that we don't even know about from our past that clings to us? Speak for yourself, lady. How many know we need to be re-delivered every 90 days because living in this world, you pick up things at salons and things that you don't even know you're picking up. Lady, when I walk around, I don't pick up devils, I cast out devils. The day of that sniffling church that's afraid of demon spirits, it died yesterday. This is a room full of women and a room full of men that know their God, that carry his power and have authority over unclean spirits. You receive that cup of your hands one more time. The devil is the fee. And his mercy endures forever. From May through December, I can tell you exactly what kind of year it's gonna be. I was watching a Monday night football game when I was a teenager, and this running back ran over the linebacker into the end zone and then like knocked him down. He stood up, and then he took the football and spiked it right next to his head. And that's what me and you are gonna be doing to the devil the entire remaining seven months of this year. Can you say amen? It's not gonna be hopefully we'll make it. We have a way. No, this is going to be a dominant display of how powerful the church is and how weak the powers of the devil are. The devil's gonna be reminded in California, we are not eye to eye. He's not over our head, he's not eye to eye, the devil is under your feet. Somebody shout, power. I need prayer. You need power. You need power. Paul didn't write a letter to the Ephesians. Please keep me in prayer. I'm in prison. He said, I'm praying for you. Don't worry about me. I'll get out of here just fine. And start churches while I'm at it. I was actually wanting to write a couple books of the Bible, and this will give me some downtime. I was even thinking today how the Lord works. I'm not looking to get arrested. I tried hard during COVID and nobody'd take me. But if they did, guess what prison I go to? The one I was at. I got about people high-fiving me and hugging me. Can you say amen? Be the first prisoner that they have a fantasy draft to see which gang gets them on their team. I'll be on all of them. I'll be a crypt, a blood, Aryan nation, uh, Latin kings. You name it. Because I'm Jesus' man. And if Jesus is your Lord, nobody can touch you. Hallelujah. Praise God. Let me have um the lady that got healed in Kentucky from the lungs. Everyone say power. Say power to heal the sick. How come? I mean the blessings were up there. Then what made all those guys code and demonically manifest? What made all those people get saved? You carry the blessing now. Godliness is profitable unto all things. It'll make you a better mother. It won't make you a better mother. It'll make you a supernatural mother. It'll make you a supernatural father. Can you say amen? Somebody say power. Let me see the uh great job. Let me see the Kentucky lady. I like this lady. This is a few weeks ago.

SPEAKER_04 48:24

Hi, my name is Cindy. And I am testifying. Hi, my name is Cindy. And I am testifying.

SPEAKER_05 48:33

Isn't it crazy how sometimes you can just tell how somebody voted by looking at their outfit? Go ahead and play it again.

SPEAKER_03 48:39

What all the good things God has done for me. I came to Marion, Kentucky to a revival that Brother Jonathan was preaching at. I had been diagnosed a year ago with lung cancer. I was put on oxygen. And when I came in, I had my oxygen on. Brother Jonathan took my hands. It was like fire hit me in my chest.

SPEAKER_05 48:59

In your breasts, in your lungs, in your esophagus, and in your heart. The Lord has cleared out everything that's of infirmity and everything that's of disease. That's why you kept standing up and lifting your hands. You could feel it. And then as you lifted your hands, it kept doing more and more. Your strength is returning to you in literal measure. Yeah, you know, I pay attention. If I'm preaching and they had to wheel somewhere in because they were so weak in their lungs that they couldn't stand. In the teal uh shirt with the gray sweater. You Bella Donna? It's not a word of knowledge. She's on the social media. With both hands, close both eyes. Power of God's on you. Pondorish teol. Pondoria. Yeah. Yeah, I was thinking the last time I went to prison was 2018. And um I knew I wasn't gonna my travel schedule was starting to pick up, and I knew I wasn't gonna be able to come back, so I got uh a bunch of Kenneth Hagin's healing workbooks and passed them out to the inmates. I know a lot of people don't like Kenneth Hagin, but if you don't like him, I don't like you. So I passed them out to um the guys, and it's like a study workbook. And I said, do the questions at the end, and if you complete this and fill it out and get all the answers right, I'll give you a scholarship to my Bible college when you get out if you want to go. So I did come back in a month, and there was this guy, he was always quiet when I'd go in there to preach. He was shaved head, he was jacked. You could tell he spent all his time in the gym, and that is it. And he went like this. When I came back, then I said, I went, Can I say something? You know, back then I was 160, even now, I was 160 pounds back then. That guy could throw me through the concrete. Well, yeah, just do whatever you want. I'm not getting shanked. He goes, uh I was reading in that chapter how the it says the way you measure faith is by your confession. See, it's amazing how how quickly the Bible works if you haven't a bunch had a bunch of morons teach you not to believe it. That's what that it doesn't tick me off what happened to my daughter. It ticks me off that the other kids that are in that class that don't have a dad like me or a church like she goes to have now been told you can't believe God. And I'm telling you, part, maybe the top thing that this week serves is for the rest of the year, for every idiot that's gonna tell you that you can't believe for the best, you can't be healed, we all get sick. I'm as scared to get that virus as I am to get pregnant. One breaks a physical law and the other breaks a spiritual law. I'm not getting sick, my hands heal the sick. Can you say amen? So you're gonna have somebody this week. How old are you on the camera? 11. I feel like this church is breaking child labor laws, but I'm cool with it if you're cool with it. I feel like I'm preaching in England in the 1850s. Back to the coal mines. It's like missing fingers. I'm here to encourage your faith. I'm here to tell you all things with God are possible. And I'm here to tell you all things are possible to him that believes. Can you say amen? So I pay attention when I'm preaching. When a lady was too weak to get to her seat, she's in a wheelchair, not because she's crippled, her lungs don't work, and she's trying to live through the service, and then all of a sudden I see her standing up when she with her hands lifted. I didn't ask anybody to stand up and lift their hands. I said, Hey, why wait?

unknown 52:47

Come on.

SPEAKER_05 52:48

God's hitting you now. Let's get it done. Let's find out. And then as you get closer, I'll just come and pray. I don't need a word. I'm not trying to get a word. But a lot of times as I get closer, I know what's up. Go ahead. You're gonna be able to eat what you want when you want, sleep through the night, use the bathroom on your own, wash on your own from the time you're now until you go home to be with the Lord in Jesus' name. Yeah, I felt that. I felt in my spirit her trying hard to wake up in the middle of the night and needing someone to help her and wishing she could just go to the bathroom, and wishing she could just take a shower or whatever. Because I don't know any of that. You know. I don't know about old people stuff. Keep going.

SPEAKER_03 53:35

And I fell out under the power, laid there a few minutes. When I got up, I just felt wonderful. Like I hadn't felt in over a year. A few minutes later, I noticed that like my chest was rising a little bit more than it has been. I took my oxygen out, sat there a few minutes, didn't even realize I had taken it out. A few minutes later, brother Johnson said something, and he looked and he goes, Hey, where's your oxygen?

SPEAKER_05 53:59

Why's your oxygen out?

SPEAKER_03 54:04

He goes, Why? I said, Because I don't need it no more. Hallelujah. Brother Johnson prophesied that I would be able to eat, I would be able to sleep, my body would work. He didn't know that I had a hiatal hernia as well. It's like I felt God zipped it off. Glory to God. He has been so good to me. Every day my strength is stronger. He has blessed me spiritually.

SPEAKER_05 54:29

I was seeing somebody on uh on X. These people get to deceive people into thinking they're healed and then they die. This testimony was taken four and a half weeks later because the pastor wanted to extend the meeting a second week, and I had to go. So he said, Well, do you have any other weeks open? So I came back. So she didn't come back, you know, or her family. Hey, by the way, my grandma's dead. Thanks. You tricked her into taking her. First of all, I never told her to take her. You heard me. Hey, why's your oxygen out? I don't think you're able to do that, are you? And then she when she heard that and realized what she did, because she didn't do it like in faith, she just did it like um this is too much oxygen. Like I had a guy get healed in Philadelphia at a crusade, he was a Haitian guy, he was 80, 81. You were there. He said that his hearing aid was too loud. So he kept turning it down, and no matter how down he turned it, it was still too loud. So he took it off to see what's wrong with it, and it got louder, and then he thought, What's good? I can hear anything can happen in a Holy Ghost meeting. Somebody shout better things. Things that come with salvation. It's still a small thing to get new lungs and new heart and all the junk that's cancer is taking out of your breast and walking again. But then when you get it, why did that guy feel to pray for another guy? Why did the dad go lead his son to the Lord? Why did the other dad call home and lead his daughter to the Lord? Because when you get in this flow, it won't stop. It's not a trickle, it's a mighty river. Receive that river.

SPEAKER_03 56:14

Spiritually, physically, financially. Hallelujah. I just signed on a new house last month by myself. Glory to God. And I just can't believe all that he's done. But he said, if you have the faith of a mustard seed, that anything you ask, he'll do it. And I'm living proof of that.

SPEAKER_05 56:33

Now, this guy that you're gonna watch had uh, what is it, is it multiple sclerosis, I think? And his one side was numb, he couldn't feel his feet. So he came with great difficulty with a cane back when we were in the soccer field. Do you know who invited him to church? His cousin. He lives an hour and a half away. Both of them live an hour and a half away. He told his cousin how bad he's doing. They don't go to church. He said, You should go to that church in Pittsburgh and God will heal you. So when he told me that I said, Well, what church does your cousin go to? He went, he doesn't go to church. But so many people got healed there that word was starting to get out in the community. I'd go there and have that. So then think of this. No one told him you can't get healed. Nobody told him that's not for today. He didn't have that dumb teacher for his teacher. Dumb in that area, respectfully dumb. With all due respect, dumb. How's that? Cleaned it up a little bit. Less offensive, soften the blow. Yeah, you're dumb. You're dumb to tell a room full of kids they can't believe God. And it's all waiting for them in heaven. You're nuts. Can you say amen? You don't have to say amen to that, but I feel it. I don't like it. I don't like people discouraging people's faith. Think how nice Jesus was to prostitutes and stuff, and how mean he was to religious teachers that told people there was no power. Brings out a different side of Jesus. Yeah, you'd think if you if you were in most churches that Jesus was braiding whips and flipping tables over at bars, but he wasn't. Those people were cool with them and the religious people. Some of you watching right now. It's my 11-year-old photographer. That's gotta break some kind of California law, I'm telling you. And even if he's a volunteer, you can't tell me they don't have something written into some code here. Why is he chained to the tripod? Well, I've never found the church that found child trafficking funny. Um so this guy, it wasn't a healing service that day, and as far as I didn't preach on healing, I didn't give an altar call to get healed. You know how this guy got healed? He walked up to me and said at the end of the service, I was trying to leave, with great, excuse me, I'm supposed to be healed today. Said who? I've never had a Christian that I can remember in my whole life say, I'm supposed to be healed today. In God's time, amen. How many know many times we want it now, but many times God uses those things to refine us? Oh, does he? Smoke some more crack. God doesn't teach through sickness, God doesn't teach through disease, God doesn't teach through divorce, God doesn't teach through bankruptcy, God teaches by his word. And he's not looking to hurt you, he's looking to help you, he's not looking to kill you, he's looking to make you alive. Excuse me, I'm supposed to be healed today. Okay. Put my hands on and prayed. He went out under the power, nobody caught him because nobody was a, you know, the service was over. And he's a visitor, he's never been to church. You'll see he has like a skull tattoo on his fist. Goes out and then um gets up, does a little dance, tells him he can feel his feet, flips the cane to the usher, starts walking, and then says, Thank you. It's amazing. I'm supposed to be healed today. I mean, you know, it's up to him. Sometimes we want it now, but God has used it. I'll tell you what it is, too, while I'm while I'm talking. If you are not gonna pray for people and you're not gonna help people, then you are gonna start, whether it's subconsciously or on purpose, preaching things that make people not desire prayer. Because you're gonna rush off to the back room and have cold cuts and grapes and sliced cheese and sparkling water while you wait for the next service and you don't have time. So, how do you know we want things now? And many times we want God to get us out of the storm, but God uses the storm. We we want things now, but God has a process. We're we're like microwave people, but God's an oven person. What scriptures are these? You'll just make up random baking analogies to describe God. It's all an attempt to deaden faith so you leave, so we can get the cars out and get the next group in. But in this hour, it's gonna be Book of Acts. Praying, praying for people in the church, praying for people outside the church, praying for people in prison. Receive a fresh anointing tonight. Go ahead, roll it. I like this kid.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:51

My name is Greg. I came from uh Greensburg, PA this morning for the first time over to this church. Uh, my cousin actually told me about this gentleman who is quite the uh minister here.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:07

I I love it. I love how you can tell when people run church, they don't know the word. This gentleman. I've never been called a gentleman ever, who's quite the father. You know, I had a kid speaking to father. I had a kid in my youth group. The first assignment I had in the ministry, I was a youth pastor in a town called Lexington, Massachusetts, uh, which is outside of Boston. And these kids started coming to the to the youth group. We we ran a van, we got a van and would pick people up and take them because the there was only like nine kids in the church, so you couldn't grow the youth group. It was an older Italian church and there weren't kids. So we started like, I don't know, the Lord helped me. We started getting kids in and went from like six to nine to fourteen to twenty two. We hit like twenty-eight one a week. I felt like I was Reinhardt Bonkey. The sea of children. You may have caught mirror tonight. It's like we can hear you, it's a small room. Okay, so then one of the kids that came in, his name was Tommy, because like everybody in Boston's named either Tommy or Jay, because it's all Irish. And so he's coming and he gets saved, and his girlfriend gets saved, and he gets filled with the spirit, and then he's not there one week. So I leave it alone the one week, he's not there, then he's not there the next week. So I asked, I said, I said to one of his friends, I said, Where's Tommy at? So his mom won't let him come. I said, Why not? I said he's Catholic. Okay. Whatever. Okay, you're a Catholic that's a drug, a marijuana dealing 14-year-old with a girlfriend you're sleeping with. That's not that Catholic. Amazing how everything's cool until you get into this flow. We're Catholic. Since when? Name me one priest in Boston that's ever laid eyes on any one of you. I said, What? And I'm telling you, if you think I was wild, I'm wild now, you should have seen me at 19 when I had nothing to be sued for. I had a pastor tell me that one time. He said, You know, if you if you operate the way you do, someone's gonna sue you. I said, Don't you have to have assets to be sued? I got nothing. So I immediately got in my car, drove to his house, somebody gave me his address, and I knocked on the door. I was addressed similar to this. Knocked on the door. Mom answers, cigarette rand, you know, Boston lady. Like a white adults with a cigarette. She goes, uh she goes, uh, can I help you? I said, uh yeah. I said, I uh came to pick up your son for church, Tommy. He's been doing great. Nice to meet you as the mom. She went, we're a Catholic. I said, I heard. That's why I wanted to introduce myself. Father Shuttlesworth. And the name of the church was St. Paul Church. So I didn't have to lie. Father Shuttlesworth, St. Paul Church. Oh, I didn't know it was St. Paul Church. I don't know ya. Tommy! Pastors here, boss, pastors here. He comes out, she went, Thank you, Father. I went bless you. Oh yeah. Say, is that right? But I got a fish on the hook. I'm not letting him go. Hallelujah. God always gives you a plan to end around the devil's plan. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You got the Shambach video? You don't pull it on yet. Everybody said, God will always give me a plan. To get around the devil's plan. And they're like easy plans. One time I was with my dad, he was preaching in Plattsburgh, New York. At the first assembly I got in Plattsburgh with Pastor Sansusi. I'm just giving you details so it doesn't sound like a fake story. So they put a billboard up for the meeting. My dad had a meeting at that church that was so powerful they had to build an addition onto the church immediately. You know, back then they did it like with no permits and just say they were sorry. And so uh it like doubled the church. Well, the devil doesn't like it. So we somehow, I don't know how I got the call. I didn't work in that department. I was the drummer. And my dad's son. They're like, hey, the mayor called and he said that our billboard announcing the revival that's on the highway has to be taken down because it's distracting drivers. That was on Monday. So they give me the phone. I said, hello, hello, hello, uh, Mr. Mayor. He's like, hey, that billboard needs to be taken down. It's distracting. We're getting complaints about it. I said, no problem, it'll be down Saturday. He went, thank you. Meeting ends Friday. Dum dum. I was only 22. Praise God. Sometimes I watch those Al Capone movies and stuff, and think, if those guys at 20 could outsmart the FBI, what are we doing? Now, if you're watching around the FBI, I don't mean the you in particular. It's not that difficult. Those guys had, what uh uh uh who was the guy that that did cocaine from Columbia? Escobar. He had a fourth grade education, was out thinking world governments, taking in 20 billion a year under demonic power with education. We got the Holy Ghost, we got we need to pray. No, we don't. Use your brain. I'll give you another one. My dad's youngest brother pastors in Virginia Beach. They have it on they have it on video. The cops come when they do the when they first did the lockdown 2020, because he, you know, none of us shut down. It's funny. My none of us talk to each other, but none of us shut down. Get my dad preaching in New York during the lockdown, too. I'm having a good time tonight. Hallelujah. I'm dressed like I'm trying to sell you a timeshare, but I'm here to have church. Amen. Only be 1900 with fees, you know. Um praise God. So they send the cops and say they want to talk to my uncle. You should see the video. It's the funniest thing because normally the criminal's nervous and the cops are calm. The cops were like shaky. My uncle was powerlifting back then. He was huge. He was benching like 440. He comes out in a suit and tie with a thick a porcelain espresso cup. I mean, it looked like something from the 1920s. Um I hate I hate to do this, Reverend, but the governor said the church has to be has to be um you can't be meeting inside, and uh uh it's it's just gonna be okay for today. But if if you're here next we know, what are you nervous for? Michael just as he's talking, my uncle's sipping espresso like Don Corleone. And he goes, uh, but we have to, if you're here next week, we'll have to arrest you. My uncle took another sip and went, see at 10 o'clock and bring more than one squad car. So they come back. And when they come back the next week and drive by, they're satisfied because they're having church outside, which was legal. There, somebody's having a phone call on a 1960s office phone. We're gonna take an offering to get you a ringtone at the end. Shakira, something other than that. Your phone needs a breakthrough. Hello, MCI. How old is your cell phone? So it actually makes me sad. So they drive by, and there's a stage set up, people are leading worship, there's people in the chairs in the parking lot, and so they nod their heads and keep driving. It was a pretend service. The church was packed, and they had a couple staff members panomime a service in the parking lot. They had someone panomime preach. The cops tried by. We're on the winning side! The devil makes plans, but God had a plan to beat his plan before he ever lost it. I'm looking at people that have the victory. Go ahead.

SPEAKER_01 1:10:42

Walking was a real challenge for me. This gentleman uh over here across the way, who's off camera right now, uh, saw me walk in here and found me after the sermon, introduced me to the pastor, and immediately I can actually feel my toes. I can feel my feet. I no longer need this thing. It is just absolute joyous that I can just actually know I can feel my toes to my feet. Like it is crazily crazy. I love it.

SPEAKER_05 1:11:13

Love it. So then Wednesday's there. The four people next to him give the altar call, he taps them all to go up. They came to get saved. Hallelujah. Somebody shout power. Somebody say power over the devil. Let me see Matthew 10:1. And he gave unto them power over unclean spirits. Jesus called his twelve disciples together and gave them authority. Let me see King James. When he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits. Hallelujah. That's right. Four demon-possessed people to get carted out of that prison, but nobody carted me out. I got power over unclean spirits. Hallelujah. You'd have fun traveling with me. Were you with me in Denver, Abraham, or was it just me and a me and a dolls when that demon-possessed guy came at me? You weren't there? I said, I have no witness. I'll tell you what my go-to line has been. It's Chris Farley's line from uh Dirty Work. And um, this guy, I'm sure he was on meth or whatever. He sees me crazy. There's a look. There's a look that crazy people get in their eyes of shock when they realize you're crazier than them. They don't know what to do. You can actually see the devil go like, son of a gun. You think you're the only one that can yell? I yell every night for a living. You wanna outpreach me? He went like this. That's right, pick on somebody else that doesn't have the Holy Ghost. I'm telling you, the next time the devil comes to your town, next time he comes to your house, he's gonna find a different Christian. Everybody said, Before the devil even made the plan, God made a plan to get me to the other side with a testimony. Now lift your hands, and as you do, your burdens are being transferred out of your hand and into the hand of God. This is some of the most fun I've had preaching in all 2026. This is a refreshing meeting. Hallelujah. It's gonna keep getting better for you and better for you and better for you. Power against unclean spirit. Hallelujah! I thought you were a Christian. Why did you do that? Why didn't you cast the devil out of it? My daughter and wife with me should be thankful he's not eaten out of a tube for the rest of his life. I thought blah blah blah was a nice middle ground. He gave unto them power against unclean spirits to cast them out and to heal. I like that. I like that in the prison you start preaching. People the devils just start freaking out. They can't stay. Darkness can't stay with light. Light drives out darkness. Now, this'll this will help you understand the wisdom, ever say the wisdom of God. Yeah. This is a great evangelist. I'll introduce you to him in heaven. He's in heaven now. He did his, he did his job. He'd set up his tent. And this is why when you hear the story, when you think America's grown so far from God, this is in far Texas, not California. And they sued him and arrested him for preaching under his tent with all the permits. Because the certain churches would put pressure on the government to shut his tent meeting down. Oh yeah, you know, you're gonna go home the happiest people in Southern California. If you get pulled over, they're gonna think you're high. But it doesn't matter because it's legal here anyway. And you know what? They're gonna be right. You're going home high in the Holy Ghost. In Jesus' name. Watch this, and then we're gonna have some more fun.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:50

I'll never forget I put this tent up in the valley in Texas.

SPEAKER_05 1:15:53

I love this.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:54

We're going down there in November again, Rio Gran Valley. And I'll never forget the first night the mayor came out. Oh Lord, the mayor's coming to my meeting. And I went back at stage and shook hands with him. I said, Glad you're here. Going out there and greet the folks. He said, I'm here on official business. I ain't shaking your hand. I said, Where's the key to the city? He said, I got the key to the jail. I said, Oh Lord. I said, I just got here. He says, You're going to take this tent down. I said, I just put it up. We're going to be here 17 days. He said, I come out here to tell you I don't believe in what you're doing. Oh, I said, now I see why God sent me here. I said, that's why I'm here to make a believer out of you. He said, you're taking the tent down. I said, no, sir. He said, this is my city. I said, there's where you're wrong, mister. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. And I'm here under direct orders of good, and I'm gonna have revival here. He said, if you persist in doing this, I'll have to arrest you. I said, You do what you gotta do, and I'll do what I gotta do. Turn around and walked out. I felt so bad. I wanted the key to the city. Now the crowd, we didn't have a big crowd at all. Just in this section. Never been there before. Why in the world would God send me down there? Because he had somebody to get saved down there, Bert. Much people in that area. No sooner when I walked off a platform, two policemen asked me. They stopped me. Are you Reverend R. W. Shambaugh? Yes, sir, that's me. You're under arrest. I said, What's the charge? Preaching the gospel with a loud speaker. Oh, I said, My God, I'm guilty. Got a loud speaker? And thank God he said I was preaching the gospel. Now a lot of preachers would have been found innocent, but at least they said I was preaching the gospel. That kind of made me feel good, so I shouted a little bit on that. Took me down, a judge was waiting on me. She said, A woman judge. I said, Oh, I'm a goose's cooked. She said, How do you plead? I said, I plead guilty, Your Honor. She said, The fine's $52.50. Oh, I said, That's cheap enough. I paid it all in nickels. That's all they had down there. And they were Mexicans coming over, you know. I paid, oh, I've never seen so many nickels in all my life. I paid it cash, and they're taking pictures of me. And I'm wondering why do I have to go through this humility of being arrested? I didn't know until the next day. Had my picture on the front page. Eyewitnessed news, they gave me eight minutes. Only had about 500 people opening night. The next night the tent was full, and they were standing on the outside, coming to see the crazy preacher. Are you listening to me? All things work together for good to them that love God, to those who are the call according to his purpose. Hear me, preacher. I stood up and gave an older call, and a thousand people come to get saved. I said, devil ain't got no sense. Lord, let him arrest me again. So guess who was waiting on me? Two more policemen. Are you RW Shambot? Yes, sir. Let's go, man. Let's go. Got in that cab of his. I said, What's the charge tonight? Same thing. Preaching the gospel with a loudspeaker. I said, Let's get this thing on the road, man. I got down there, the judge said, How do you plead? I said, Guilty? Yes, sir. I mean, yes, ma'am, guilty. She said, the fine's $102.50. Ooh. I said, You believe in a double portion, too? Got some more nickels for you here, girl. Front page again. Eyewitness news, 12 minutes now. Never had so much publicity. I got about a quarter of a million dollars of publicity, and it didn't cost me a dime because my father has everything under control. My God, I gave another altar call, and a thousand more people come to get saved.

SPEAKER_10 1:20:12

Are you listening to me? Hallelujah.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:18

Hallelujah. Rested me the third night. Now I witnessed news with Shambhunk news. Now I had it all. The whole front page. Everybody in that valley knew I was there. The fourth night, something happened. I got in the car and I saw this blue light flashing. Before I got to the tent, instead of stopping, I floored it. I don't recommend that, especially on radio. But I recognized the dude. He's the one who arrested me the last three nights. And I said, What's he trying to get me before church? And I said, if I can just make the tent grounds, I got sanctuary. But I found out what a two-way radio was. Because they had the exit block, and I had to come to a stop. And he came up in my car and he said, Are you Reverend R. W. Shabbat? I said, you've been arresting me for three nights and still don't know who I am. And he had a whole stack of warrants. I said, Looks like I got company tonight. He said, They're all yours tonight, preach. I said, What's the charge? Preaching the gospel aloudspeaker. Took me in to the judge. I said, I ain't never heard of this in my life. I ain't preaching. I ain't got no microphone in my car. She said, We're gonna arrest you tonight before you do it. I said, That's like arresting a man for murder before he commits the thing. I said, I don't believe this. She says, your fine tonight is $7,680. She said, You don't have that many nickels. You ain't gonna preach tonight. I said, Pardon me, ma'am. If I don't preach under that tent, I'm gonna preach in jail. But I'm gonna preach somewhere. God called me to preach, and I'm gonna preach. My son came over and he said, Dad, the biggest crowd we ever had under that tent, they're waiting for you. I said, Get them pastors over here. They come over and I said, You want me to preach? You better over there and get an offering. Tell them to keep their nickels at home. This is big money. One of those men wrote a check for the whole amount, and that judge said, No check. I want cash. Why he said, Your Honor, I'm your neighbor. I live next. She says, I ain't resting you, I'm resting that man. He's not preaching under that stent. He went back and took an offering in 20 minutes, laid the cash in front of that judge. I got out of there in 20 minutes, and we had church till 1:30 in the morning. Hallelujah! Listen, Lester Roloff is a Baptist. He heard about my plight, and you know what he did? That Baptist preacher came to the rescue of this Pentecostal preacher. He sent me his attorneys and said, Go on down there and help that preacher. And I'll tell you, they got an injunction against the whole city. I didn't know what an injunction was. I thought a junction was 65 crossing 20. I didn't know what it was, but they forbid the city to come under that tent, that no police were allowed in there, no mayor, no judge, no anybody. They said, You cannot stop that man from preaching, let him finish the service. And I went back and fought it out in court for two days, and the judge said to the mayor, You've arrested this preacher falsely for four days. You took ten thousand dollars from him that don't belong to you. I order you to give it back and change the law on your book. This is still America. He can preach the gospel with a loudspeaker anywhere he goes.

SPEAKER_10 1:23:41

My God, I want to get up things together for good God to those who have a call according to his Hallelujah.

SPEAKER_05 1:23:56

Can you say amen? Hallelujah. How many ever seen my dad on YouTube? Your trusted voice in Bible prophecy, super not like me, except he is like me. I got everything I got from him. This is him in June 2020 preaching in New York during COVID when people were afraid and getting fined, and the whole church was mashed up. You can this is video of my dad snapping in real time, and it's anointed. Roll it.

SPEAKER_06 1:24:26

And don't live in dread of what frightens them. Make the Lord of heaven's armies holy in your life. He is the one you should fear, he is the one who should make you tremble, but he will keep you safe. Praise God. That is the promise of God. I'm not afraid of anything in this world. I'm certainly not afraid of some damn flu. And I use that word biblically. I am not gonna still a curse word. Keep going. I am gonna stop the work of the Lord for some bacteria or virus. I'm not gonna be an idiot. I'm gonna be courteous. I'm gonna do my best to be gracious, but I am not gonna stop building the church for some demonic virus or some demonic mandate. I am on a mission for the Lord Jesus Christ. Is that too honest, Pastor? Jesus said, I'll build my church. That's my mandate. I'm not playing games. If you look like anybody know that nobody's gonna stop me. If it means I have to go to prison, I'll go to prison. If it means they put me on a firing squad, I'll be on a firing squad preaching to the last person loading their weapon. I am on a holy mission. And holy men don't take orders from unholy men.

SPEAKER_05 1:26:11

I got that. What's in his spirit growing up in his meetings? Just like my daughter got what's in her spirit growing up. It was just like the criminal kid got what's in his dad and his criminal dad spirit. Thank God they both got born again. And so that's what that's one of the purposes of these meetings. Paul said in Romans 1, I long to be with you that I may impart some spiritual gift to you to the end that you might be established. R.W. Shabbach stood against that. He didn't back down. My dad stood against that thing in New York. Until you stand for something, you're gonna miss out on a lot of the blessings that are in that Bible. Notice what happened when Shambh stood. The Baptist pastor found out, gave him attorneys. The businessman in town wrote the check for the whole thing. They weren't coming to the meetings. The thing the devil means to submarine you is actually what gets you on the radar. Where people say, Finally. You know what's interesting? Um, the press secretary, Carolyn Levitt, they seated me next to her at a dinner, and she found out I was a preacher, and she she's a real Christian. I would really talk to somebody from that you went to Bible school with. She's like a real spirit-filled Christian. And she said, Um, would you ever start a church in New Hampshire? I said, I'd start a church anywhere the Lord told me, but I don't have any plans to start in New Hampshire. She said, Well, that's where my husband and I live. And we can't find a church where the guy will preach the Bible and not say, you know, now I'm not saying, and I'm not see that in your effort to keep lukewarm people, you lose on fire people. She said, If you if you would start a church there, I promise you, my husband will buy uh uh any property for you you want. Because he's a real you know, he's a he's a multi millionaire real estate person. And so that guy that's apologizing, there's backsling people doesn't realize he's got a have. Half a billionaire in there that's looking for somebody to get behind financially, but he can't find a preacher that'll stand against the devil. And they've taught you for too long to duck and hide and be careful and watch what you say. But if you read the book of Acts, they were very uncle with how they behave. And something's coming into your spirit where the devil that told you you have a right to be in this little corner and don't do anything else. You're coming out of that corner. You're coming out with strength. You're coming out with fire. You're gonna do what the devil told you you'll never do. You're gonna be who the devil told you you'll never be. You're gonna have what the devil told you you'll never have. Sit on your feet, everybody. Thank you, Jesus. This is revival. 258 people tonight. Up from 193 last night. Growing almost out of room. Praise God. I'm looking forward to these next 48 hours. Praise God. My wife's women's conference had 605. Their biggest car last year was 524, which is their record. They had 605 on opening night. Wednesday night. All women. Praise God. We're going up. I'm glad he's on our side now. Proud of you. Tonight God's gonna baptize you in the Holy Ghost. Let me see you. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Pidore. I'm gonna tell you something. All the things you've been praying for individually, Lord, help me here, help me here, help me here. The answer to all those things is this fire that's coming in your belly. Thank you, Lord. Thank you. What God did to those guys in the prison, receive it. You shall receive power. Power. After that, the Holy Ghost has come upon you. My friends, you need the Holy Ghost. I'm telling you, 999 times out of a thousand, I need prayer. You don't, you need the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost will make you a possessor of the things you're asking other people to pray for. You'll carry it. And you're gonna come out of this meeting carrying it. This is a Holy Ghost night. You can think it's oversimplified or whatever, but I'm telling you, all you look at stuff 120 problems in California. The answer to all of them is every believer getting filled to overflowing with the fire of the Holy Ghost and carrying that power and not being ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Let me pray for this lady. Gold shirt and vest and glasses. Yes, let me pray for you. Praise the Lord. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Thank you, Jesus. The baptism of the Holy Ghost. The fire of the Holy Ghost. Lift both hands, close, both eyes. I don't know where you people came from. You act like you came from heaven. Like the nicest people I've ever met. May I say you're the nicest people I've ever met. My family's from West Virginia, so that's not really saying much, but it still counts. Lift both hands, close, both eyes. Fresh fire. As your contemporaries continue to fade out, you're gonna flame up. Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. I pray for this lady, row three. Yes. Around a few. Fire. Let me pray for you. And the leopard print top with the black sweater. Come around. If both hands close, both eyes. See the power of God comes on you even stronger. There it is. Hallelujah. Fill that old prison. Fill any room. Jesus' name. You know, there's an old pastor. He met Oral Roberts and he said, What's the secret to church growth? I know the old pastor. He said, Or Roberts got this like looking as I went. When you preach and can feel the get to the point where you can feel the anointing bouncing off the back wall when you preach and coming back and hitting you, then the church will fill up. What a weird answer. But I'm starting to realize what he was talking about. Let me pray for Tessa's mom. In Jesus' name. Put one hand on your heart and this one on your belly. And receive a healing in your body. In Jesus' name. Power of God's on you. Lift both hands. Anything from the past that you wish you'd have done different, the Lord will restore the years that the locust and canker were made. You won't lose out on anything in your future because of anything, any misstep from the past. Receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah. Is that your name heavier? I don't know if you bought like a vintage shirt or whatever. In the name of Jesus. Praise God. How many people are here from Fiji? All of you lift your hands. Be filled with the Holy Ghost. All the great things God's done for you in the last three years, it pales in comparison to what he has in your future. In Jesus' name. In the name of Jesus. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. I pray for my friends from Australia. I pray for this lady in the blonde hair. You look like Jan Crouch's sister. Let me pray for you. Row three. This lady, black and white, blonde hair. Let me pray for you. Thank you, Jesus. Good to see you. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Yeah. Receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Praise God. I'm kinda hoping she falls down sooner, otherwise she might take off. Praise God. All four of you, lift your hands. Whatever's required for this next step, receive it in the anointing. More than enough. More than enough. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. Praise God. It's crazy to think that they said that's what that guy in the prison was doing. Because he was like fire in his arms. It takes a lot to freak prison guards out. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Praise you, Jesus. Go ahead and sing whatever's on your heart, Sister Clarity. Every hand lifted up, whatever she's singing, I want you to sing it with her. And the anointing of the tears are going to get even stronger in Jesus' name. Receive ye the gift of the Holy Ghost. In Jesus' name. Power from heaven. More than enough power to do everything God's called you to do. To possess everything God's called you to possess. And to do it with ease. Too easy. People have to come up with reasons, pretend reasons why you're able to do what you do. Because they can't admit that somebody could do that just with God's help. Let me pray for Tesla's father. That's it. That's powerful. In Jesus' name. In Jesus' name. Lady behind, Mr. Justin? Yeah, just lift both hands right there. You can stay where you're at. We're running out of space up here. Be filled with the Holy Ghost and fire. That's it. More? The hand of God reaches down into your soul right now and pulls out. What no surgeon, what no therapist, what no human could ever things you thought you'd have to carry with you your whole life, they're now gone. A new beginning and a fresh start. You know what? I won't pray for you. Come around to the front. I can't, I'd get to you. I don't I don't think I could do it. Praise God. Tessa's mom, stage right where you are. Receive a second wave. More. In the name of Jesus. More right through you. Be healed. Be healed in your body. Be strengthened and quickened. In Jesus' name. And pray for this lady with the nice white hair and white jacket. Today is a new day for you. So all things are gone. Never to be remembered again. Lord gives you a brand new bloodstream. Praise God. You look very healthy. I'm sure you have, but the Lord's healing your body right now. I haven't been to the doctor since I was 17, and that was to get a physical to play ice hockey. Required by the state of Maine. And uh and then I want another time in Montreal to get uh, what did I have to get? An exemption for the yellow fever vaccine to go preach in Africa. So I get it if that counts as going to the doctor. You know why? If you stay in meetings like this, Proverbs 4, 20 through 22, my son attend unto my words, for they are life under your flesh and radiant health to all that find it, to your bones, strengthens you. Amen. It's a long drive. I guarantee it's less time than you'll spend in a waiting room with eight people masked hacking and coughing. You go to church, you turn out a different boy or a different girl. Praise God. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Pastor Z, let me pray for you. Take a couple steps forward. Put one hand on your belly, one hand to the Lord. A new unction comes on your preaching from tonight. The kind of stuff I described tonight, and this is going to happen for a lot of people, it's why the Lord quickened me to talk about it tonight. Like a provoking of the powers of darkness when you preach and a delivering power on your preaching, where people get, the devil gets stirred up and cast out just from your preaching. That element is added to your ministry as a gift from God tonight. Everything your mother prayed over you, I joined my faith with it, and it comes to pass now. Now, you'll know, preachers that are here tonight, Jeremiah 20, verse 9 will become real to you. You'll actually be able to get in the pulpit and say, It's like a fire shut up in my bones. I'm weary from trying to hold it in. Can you say amen? Everybody for this blonde-haired lady with the tannish jacket and green shirt under it. I appreciate every pastor that's in this meeting that this is not your church. It means a lot because I I never knew what it was like to live in California until we started a church there, and I've spent a little time. It's very far to go anywhere. It takes one hour to go from Fontana to Fontana. Hallelujah. Let me pray for you, Susie and Susie's sister. What's the sister's name? Let me pray for both of you. I'll dismiss soon. I didn't realize it was 10 o'clock, but just because you didn't realize it doesn't mean it's not 10 o'clock. Did you guys get air conditioning since I was here last year? Because I remember this being like hell week for the Navy SEALs. And I I feel pretty dry. Nice to see you again. God bless you. Jesus. You're you're like this with praying hands? Yes, you. It's been a super easy meeting. I think I need to go to the dry cleaner. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Thank you, Jesus. This lady with the glasses on, hands clasped, black you also have a black top on. That's you, yes. Come around it. Thanks for coming tonight. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Power of God's on you. Thank you, Jesus. Hey, when Saul, who became Paul, was walking to go arrest and persecute Christians and Jesus appeared, what happened to Saul? What happened to him? Fell to the ground. When he saw Jesus, he fell to the ground. So I'm not saying you gotta fall, but if you've never seen this before and it seems strange, which it is, if you've never seen it before, people think that because they haven't seen something, it's not in the Bible or it's wrong, but it's all through the Bible. He didn't see Jesus and shake his hand, and Jesus calmly gave him his instructions. He got knocked on his back. Can you say amen? There's power. Jesus is a powerful Savior. Praise God. That's right. But things will be different from tonight. Anything that enemy used to torment you, it's now gone. You'll never be tormented. You'll sleep through the night easy. No fear, no anxiety, no panic, no nothing. Praise God. You mind if I get in here? I didn't see it first because of the camouflage. You're good. You stay seated. You stay seated. You speak English? English or no English? God's gonna strengthen your body right now. And in your older years, you won't be weak. You'll be strong. You can eat what you want. You can enjoy life. In Jesus' name. Be healed. Be healed in your heart. Be healed in your kidneys and stuff. In Jesus' name. Amen. Love you. Appreciate you. Be blessed. In Jesus' name. Every free of you. Every free other night. What do you want when you want to be able to hold it down? In Jesus' name. In the name of Jesus. Thank you. Thank you, Jesus.

SPEAKER_09 1:52:19

Thank you, Jesus.

SPEAKER_05 1:52:21

In Jesus' name. In the name of Jesus. Thank you, Lord. He is real. My dad's brother, I played my dad, his brother was doing a uh meeting. He rented out the basketball court, the outdoor basketball court in Patterson, New Jersey. And they just put up chairs, and it was like in Section 8 housing. And Patterson, New Jersey's rough. So he's preaching, everybody's just got like their arms folded, listening, you know, being respectful, but not really receiving. He points at this 48-year-old gangster. Looked like a gangster. He had the colors on and stuff. He said, Sir, stand up. The guy stood up. You know, it's not sure. He didn't lift his hands and close his eyes. He just stood up like this. And then my uncle went, Lift your hands. He lifted his hands. So the devil's tried to kill you twice and poked him in the chest. Here, and then poked him in the stomach. Here. You go poke a gangster in the chest. You usually lose your hand. And that guy went, Are you kidding me? And took his t-shirt and pulled it up. Bullet hole? Bullet hole. And then people took it a little more seriously. Because God knows everything. God knows all about you. And God is real. I told those guys in prison, when you read that Bible today, the guy that wrote it is going to talk to you and he's going to put his spirit in you. God bless you. Every head bowed, every eye closed. If you've never received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, I would do that right now. If you got away from God, I would come back to Him right now. All the devil has to do to get you go to hell is put this off one more day or make you feel like once I get everything kind of squared away, then I'll come to God. You don't come to God once you made everything perfect. You come to Him as you are, and then He gives you power. That's you know, that's actually what I started preaching to those guys in prison. It was Ephesians 6, 8. Knowing this, whatsoever good any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. Meaning, Paul was in prison saying, you don't have to wait until you get out of prison for it to work. It'll start working while you're in prison. And I told him how Paul ended up getting his own private house while he was in prison, Acts 28. So the devil always wants to make you think it has to happen in the future, but if it doesn't happen in the future, it happens now. You take tonight. God didn't bring you to this meeting, have you drive here and sit here for three hours so it can happen nine days from now. Now, today is the day of salvation. Now, faith is. If you're here and you've never given your life to Jesus Christ, or you once did and you got sideways with God, or you just got out of church. You know, if I were to ask you right now, who's your pastor? And the answer is, well, then you're probably on your way to hell. You don't have a pastor, you don't have a church. You should you should think about that. No, it's different, you know, where I live and I no. This is a night to snap out of it. And wait a minute. The devil got me deluded into thinking it's cool to have no church, no prayer life, no life in the word. I'm coming back to God tonight, and I'm gonna live on fire for God the rest of my life. If you say, Jonathan, when you pray, I want to come back to the Lord, I want to receive Jesus Christ, I need the Lord to heal me from the inside out. I want to leave here and lay my head on my California pillow and know that I have peace with God and my sins are all forgiven. If that's you, and when you want to be included in this prayer, quickly put your hand up and wave it at me. I'm gonna pray with you right now. I see you. Who else? I see you, I see you. Awesome. Are some of these new family? Really? Wow. I love it. You know, not to creep you out, but I love you guys. I love I've met your a ton of your family. I really, you're special people. So you can you can walk up with them. Everybody lifted a hand, come out of your seat and join me at the front. We're gonna pray right now. Let them out of their seats.

SPEAKER_08 1:57:11

Yes, oh, yes, oh yes. Yes, oh, yes, oh yes.

SPEAKER_05 1:57:18

Oh ladies, there's no guy in here that needs to get saved. Bull crap. I'm gonna have her sing one more time if somebody needs to fess up. Like maybe I do need to get it saved a little bit. We'll give you sing it one more time if the Lord's table through a hearing a man, young man, old man, and a man. There should be at least one guy here that needs to get saved. Come on.

SPEAKER_08 1:57:40

Oh yes, yes, yes, oh yes, oh yes, yes, oh yes, oh yes, yes, Lord, yes, Lord, yes, oh yes, yes, Lord, yes, Lord, yes, oh yes, yes, oh yes. All right, ladies' night it is.

SPEAKER_05 1:58:10

Nice to meet you. Thank you for coming. What a great family. Roughly if all the cousins came and all the aunts and uncles and the about how many would you have at the family reunion?

unknown 1:58:26

Close to a thousand.

SPEAKER_05 1:58:27

Close to a thousand. Wow. I believe you. But they're all spread out, huh? Not everyone's here. Otherwise, you just get one family saved, you'd have a mega church. Lift both hands to the Lord, pray this prayer with me, and even as you're praying it, God's gonna do a major work on the inside of your inside of your heart and your mind and your body. Say this out loud. Heavenly Father, I've come forward tonight to give you my life. I turn my back on sin. 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.
