SPEAKER_02 0:13

I'm gonna tell you something prophetically. Jesus said this gospel must be preached till all nations hear it. Everybody say all nations hear it. And then the end shall come. So um this gospel must be preached till all nations hear it does not mean uh Bibles must be smuggled into all nations. I'm all for that. I'm all for getting Christianity out any way you can get it, but that's not what it said. It said this gospel must be preached to all nations. If you go on YouTube, just so it's not after the fact, I made a few predictions going into the year by the Holy Ghost. One of them was, and you can go back and look, I said there's gonna be an extreme judgment that comes because Jesus said the gospel must be preached to all nations and all men will hear it, then the end will come. Any national leader that's stopping the preaching of the gospel is gonna have a bad year. And I said, in particular, Venezuela and Iran. And then I also said that drug uh cartels have crossed a line with God. Not that God's okay with drugs, but when they started making child trafficking, you know, Jesus only about one sin. He said, anyone that harms one of these little ones or causes one of these little ones to sin, Jesus didn't say keep them in prayer or walk in love. He said it'd be good to tie a millstone around their neck and fling them in the creek. That's West Virginia translation. Yes, again. Now you can see if you're watching online and you've wondered why I have a warped sense of humor, blame all these people. This is who I grew up around. So uh clapping, yes, kill child molesters. Yes, I like this guy flinging people, drowning them to death. I'm I'm uh I want to become a Christian. So I said they crossed the line when they started, you know, 400 and some thousand uh uh kids trafficked into the country with just zip codes written on their on their hand, and God knows what happened to them on the way over and way here. I said, the Lord's gonna do something about that. Well, you started to have cartel leaders get struck down, uh, and Maduro. See, if if you don't understand Bible prophecy, then you see everything politically. Should we be at war? Should we not be at war? These things must happen. Countries that are close to the gospel are gonna come open to the gospel, and I mean where you can preach it outside. So um uh I'm not looking to hide with a supply of food. And we love Jim Baker, but if I had to eat that soup he's selling for seven years, I'd go find the Antichrist and say, hit me right here as hard as you can. I'm not here to survive. We're anointed to take over by the power of God. This is not a time of retreat. The only person that should be nervous or afraid is the devil and people who work for the devil because there's an on-fire church in America, and I'm in one of them tonight. God is pouring out his spirit like never before to remind the devil he's the devil. The church is not trying to get the victory, the church has the victory by the blood of Jesus. Amen. Resurrection of life. Father, you might be making plans to do the most I've ever done for the Lord in Jesus' name. If you believe it, can you say amen? So I I felt that in my spirit a while back. I felt Iran's, you know, it's like when you read the Bible and you study Bible prophecy and then you see current events, the Lord will start speaking to you. I could start seeing the weakening of the Iranian government in 2024. So I actually paid close to a million dollars to have all of our um uh messages where if you go on our app, of course you don't need it here, we speak English in West Virginia, most of us, but uh you can go, yeah, some people speak West Virginian and you need an interpreter. But I can make out most of it. Pepperoni roll here and there. Um I'm gonna stop making jokes about West Virginia before I have an active bullet wound. Uh so we we we translated it into Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish. Did I ever say Spanish? Spanish, Russian, Portuguese. What was the fifth one? And what's the other one? Oh, they're all up. English, Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, Arabic. Farsi, oh, we have it in Mandarin now. Chinese? That's great. And uh, Farsi, it wouldn't make any sense to pay money to have your messages translated into Farsi. Number one, they're they block the internet. Farsi is not spoken in the Middle East except in Iran and Iraq, and they're not allowed on the in fact, their internet was blacked out till a couple days ago completely. But I knew that country's gonna come open. And so I I as confirmation, I was speaking one time on YouTube at my desk, and two people started writing, we're watching you from Iran. And I said, How are you watching from Iran? They wrote by VPN. So you find out what's actually happened in Iran is the if you study the history of Iran, they're not, that was not a Muslim nation. They had another religion they followed called Zoroastricism. I might be, I might be uh mispronouncing it. It sounds more like a disease or like an infection you'd have in your elbow or something, but uh zoastercism, something like that. And um Muhammad came in and took them over by force, and it's never rooted in Iran. They say there's 40,000 plus mosques in Iran that are completely empty. The young people want nothing to do with Islam. And you know how, like in my age group, teenagers want what they can't have. So in my age group, everybody wanted to drink and smoke pot because they were told you can't drink and smoke pot. Well, if you tell a whole generation of young people, I don't want you asking questions about the Bible or Jesus, and you don't want you, we're not allowing you to know anything about that. There's actually a massive hunger in the young people searching for Jesus Christ. So I I felt like when they searched for it, they should find, and why I wanted to, you know, obviously if you have a ministry, you should believe in your own ministry. So I wanted to translate it. I was hoping that if people started searching, they would find not just about Jesus, but about all the things that Jesus gave. Like the baptism in the Holy Spirit and divine healing and power over the devil and the wonderful message of faith that you don't have to accept mountains, you can speak to the mountain and tell it to move. And so we did that. And um do you have any envy in Farsi? Here, just here's a sample. Now, the the reason we have to pay so much money is that AI matches my voice and does it in Farsi, and it's not an overdub like a Bruce Lee movie where it cuts out all the audio. You can still hear the crowd, you can hear the organ or applicable, and then it's just me with the same intonation in Farsi. That's pretty awesome to me. Now that's not a I that's the largest church in the world. There's a hundred thousand people there that night in Abuja, Nigeria, Dr. Paul Nietzsche. So God started to give me confirmations. Two of our pilots, we have a rotation of pilots, because if they if the same guy had to fly me everywhere, he'd die uh because he he'd never be on the ground. But so we have two of the pilots that get rotated in are from Iran. And the one guy, he's gonna get baptized this summer. He uh they're not Muslims. They they just they don't like that, and nobody's told them about Christ. And you tell people no Christian nation has to pass a law to keep Islam out, but is Islamic nations have to pass laws to keep Christianity out because on the open market, we do what we like to call West Virginia, kick and tail. You cannot compete with Christianity. There's no healing in mosques, there's no joy in mosques, there's no power in mosques, there's none in Hinduism. And I feel one of the ways we can make this immigration thing completely backfire is when you think about it, the devil royally screwed up. I can't go preach in Mogadishu. You'd die, Chat GPT told me I'd probably be killed or kidnapped within 20 minutes of when I landed at the airport. There's no functioning government, it's run by warlords. I can't go to Yemen, but I can go to Minneapolis, I can go to Columbus, Ohio, and there's tons there, and you can go preach under American law in those countries. I'm telling you right now, this time, 2026, until Jesus comes back, is gonna be the greatest thrust of the gospel with signs and wonders that the world has ever seen. Can you say amen? Why does God have you here tonight? Because you're not gonna watch it happen. The Great Commission goes ye into all the world and preach the gospel to everyone. Then you have the next line that makes you not really be able to be neutral. Anyone that believes and is baptized will be saved. Now, if you left it there, then you could just go at a slow pace. But you got that tricky second part. Anyone that refuses to believe will be damned. So there's no middle ground. If people don't repent and receive Christ, they go into a Christeless eternity in hell. And that's to stir. Now, you can hear a million sermons on that, but it'll never hit you. That's one of the hidden benefits of being filled with the Holy Spirit is there's there's a passion in you to do something about that great commission. And uh, I'm praying. That's not just for young people and it doesn't exclude young people, it's not for men and it's not for women, it's for all men, all women, young men, old men, uh, men and women alike, Jews and Gentiles. It's the mission of the church. Can you say amen? If you choose to not be a part of that mission, you will end up being a cranky church-going Facebook commenter that doesn't like it was too loud. I don't like the new youth pastor, blah, as Chris Farley said, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. One opinion after another, because all you do is sit and criticize because you never got your blessed assurance out of your pew and done what the gospel said. But on the flip side, if you decide I'm gonna do, I'm gonna make my life something God can use to fulfill the Great Commission. If you're in business, like happening, study it, study the first great awakening and the second great awakening. I was reading a quote by John Wesley today. He said, With, I can't remember the old English type of word he used, but he said, without trying, unawares. That was the word he used, unawares, I've become a very rich man. In other words, I wasn't trying to get rich, but in rating my books to help people get the gospel and people buying them, and then end up getting his own publisher and owning it. He said, I just, God made me rich as I did the Great Commission. When you tie your business in with the winning of souls, there's a scripture. God gives seed to the sower. Anybody that makes their business a seed-sowing business, ask Colgate, ask JC Penny, ask all these companies that blew up in America. Read the history. They started giving to the work of the Lord, and they found out they weren't doing without, they were actually increasing. So they did it more. And as they increased their sowing, God increased their harvest field. God hasn't changed. I don't care what they're predicting for the economy in West Virginia. You will be blessed.

SPEAKER_03 11:52

You are a seed sower, you are a gospel pusher, and God will never allow somebody that's part of the Great Commission to go broke. He overflows their cup because he's El Shaddai.

SPEAKER_02 12:07

Can you say amen? And I believe it. So let me share our two pilots. This was the night, the story I'm gonna tell you, this was the night that it happened. It's the guy on your right, my my left in the picture. He had just come back from Turkey, and people from Iran can get into Turkey. So he was meeting with friends, family, and some new people. He said, We went out for a big dinner. And there were two girls there from Iran in their early 20s. And they said, What do you do for work? They hadn't met him. What do you do for work? He said, I fly, uh, uh I'm an airplane pilot. They said, What airline do you fly for? He said, No airline. He said, I fly a private jet. They said, Who do you fly for? A musician, an athlete, a soccer player. They said he said, No, a pastor. Had to explain to him what a pastor was. He says, It's for a church. They said, Can we see on Instagram who it is? So he said, now he's telling me this. When I came to the plane, that's why we took a picture. You want to take a picture with me to send back to the girls? Because his eyes were like this big. He looked like somebody that just did meth at a truck stop parking lot for the first time. If you don't understand that reference, congratulations for staying in church. And if you do understand the reference, just look straight ahead and nod gently, and no one will know it's you. His eyes got super big, and he said, Pastor, you're not gonna believe what happened. Sir, tell me the story. He said, So I showed them you on Instagram, and her eyes got big. And she said in Farsi to her friend, that's him. She said, I've been watching him for eight months. When the economy went bad and I ran, I didn't have any money or food, and I resorted to prostitution. And she said, My life bottomed out. So I knew I needed God's help, was the only way I could uh do it. So I typed how to have God's help or something like that. And in Farsi, and guess who popped up? Because the Lord, I mean, even if it now it's not just for that girl, but even if it was for that girl, think of how God had a plan in place so that when somebody called out to him, there'd be an answer that they could find. Praise the Lord! Praise God. And so she said, I started watching him, and I gave my life to Jesus Christ, and I watched him every day, because there's, you know, if you want to watch Farsi gospel programming, you're basically down to me. I think there's one other ministry from like uh uh uh CBN. There's other people, but there's not a lot. So she said, I watched him, I'm a Christian now, and uh he came back and told me that. I took that as confirmation. And I'm telling you, I was just trying to introduce my books, but I'm going into prophecy, I feel like. That um when when they called the ceasefire in Iran, uh that sounded good, and I invested in the stock market, the stock market exploded the next day in the right direction. But I was unhappy. You should have been happy because it's good it's over. Now the economy can rebound, we can get oil and gas prices back down. But I wasn't happy because the reason Trump feels, whether he knows why he feels it or not, is that's the fist that God's using to topple that regime. And I just want to say this for all the woke pastors that are online and saying how bad it is, what's happening in Iran, and we need to prepare. Let me talk to any Iranian, and they're happy that those leaders are being killed. They killed 60,000 civilian protesters without a trial. And then I won't say in church because people get all freaking pretend Victorian. I can't believe he said that. They killed the nurses and did more to them than kill them. They killed the nurses that helped treat the protesters. They found the IRGC went into the hospital and said, what nurses helped treat the wounds of the protesters and then killed eventually killed them. So if you want them to live, me and you aren't gonna be friends. Because if you read the Bible, if you want this lovey-dovey pretend, that's why a lot of men don't go to church. Because they have feminized the Bible and feminized Christianity. They will, whatever happens, we're to love everybody. You're not to love everybody. If somebody breaks into your house and because you think you have some kind of Christian love, you let them assault your wife and child? You don't have love. You're an idiot. If you make it to heaven, Jesus will backhand you on the way in for letting that happen. Love, love has a protection to it. Love has action to it. Can you say amen? Yeah, shoot them with an anointing. The Holy Ghost would help you do a nice tight grouping, and the peace of God would help you sleep like a baby at night and never remember it again. Bet you didn't think you were gonna hear that tonight. That's on national television, and I don't take back any, no take backs in Jesus' name. That regime, that regime needs to go. I've been talking with a guy that's in the CIA that develops uh weapons for the Department of Defense. It's a long story how me and him became friends. But uh I've not met him yet in person, but we we talk. And uh I was asking him. And you know, it's funny how you can get people turned on to God just by talking about talking to people like they're preachers. I never I said, uh I said, I'm gonna tell you something. I've been praying, and and I said, I'm gonna tell you why what's going on in Iran is happening. I said, that regime needs to fall. I said, you might not believe in this stuff, but the Bible says the gospel has to be preached to all nations. So North Korea will come open again. Uh Venezuela that came. Why do you think Venezuela came open? The first thing Chavez did before Maduro was send all missionaries home, all public churches were closed, hundreds of pastors were arrested, and you can't have outdoor preaching. It is a mistake to work against God. And now I'm gonna tell you something. I I can tell in this crowd I got close to 100% agreement, but uh that there's a curse for working against God. But that's one of the reasons I believe in prosperity and God's blessing. As much as there is a uh a divine wind in your face when you try to work against God. What did Jesus say to Saul on the road to Damascus? He was persecuting the church, he was looking to shut down the church. Jesus said, I will build my church. Not all try to build my church, and not I'll give my church power to survive. That's why I'm not selling buckets of soup tonight or dehydrated milk or a seven-year supply of rice. He didn't say, I'm gonna help my church to survive. That's how anytime you hear people talk about how God's gonna help us make it to the end, they're not speaking by the Holy Ghost. The plan of God is not to help us make it to the end, the plan of God is to anoint us, to build big churches, and have thousands of people saved, and to do the greatest work for God that any church has ever done in the history of the world. That's happening right now, and you're gonna be a part of it in Jesus' name. If you believe it, can you say amen? Hallelujah. So I was telling this guy that's a former Green Beret and a rough guy, my kind of guy. I can talk to somebody like him better. Well, you just need to pray. No, no, like I go do something. And I told him, I said, I want you to tell me, not when Iran's open to the gospel. I've got my own plane, I don't have to wait till United starts flying their Air Emirates. Tell me when there's a landing strip I can land on, and there's a region of that country that's open to preach where I can preach without being immediately arrested. I want you to tell me, he said he would. He's been keeping in touch with me. And I, you know, he's saying it's not looking promising. You know, there's not the political climate right now to send troops in because of how badly Bush screwed up with Iraq. You know, nobody wants that, so Trump, Trump's not gonna do that. We tried to arm the Kurds, they kept the weapons and didn't fight. And so you're down. The United Arab Emirates want them out. You know you're dealing with a bunch of lunatics when you have Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates helping it with Israel helping to take them out. That's how nuts the leadership in Iran is. You know, the Bible talks about Iran, Persia. You den of buzzards, uh, uh, a horde of buzzards, den of demons. That's where all witchcraft comes out of. There is a wickedness that's in the Islam in Iran that's not even in the rest. The other Muslims are like, these people gotta go. They're messing our money up, they're blowing up our own Islamic uh Muslim Arab oil refineries. They gotta go. And so it's not happened yet. And it looks like it's not gonna happen. And United Arab Emirates can't do it. I checked on Chad GPT, they have 60,000 troops. Iran has 650,000 troops. Saudi Arabia doesn't have that many either. They can't do a ground war. Iran's a pretty good-sized country. But I'm telling you, there's no way in the natural, on betting odds, they give it a 9% chance that that regime will fall at any point. But I'm telling you, I'm feeling the 9%. Because I felt since 20, let me see the prophecy. I'm not just rattling off now. This is this is October 2024. By the way, Kamala Harris's headquarters were a couple blocks from me, and I rented, I was preaching every night. The Lord told me at the beginning of the year, take 40 nights, rent TV time during the election, and preach faith, and it'll swing the election. And she was two blocks over, and I must, she must have got window what I was saying. Her official account said, tweeted Jonathan Shuttlesworth is of his father, the devil. They deleted it after about an hour and a half. But somebody was listening. You don't have to fight things out in the natural realm. The preaching of the gospel, praying for the sick, casting out devils, doing the work that God called us to do, does something beyond the people that get healed, beyond the people that get delivered from drugs, the work of the gospel drives the devil out of counties. Can you say amen? Where's my phone? There it is. How many of you saw or heard me talk about doing that week of meetings or two weeks of meetings in Clarksburg, West Virginia? Where we did the crusade. Okay, that was 2016. The Lord said, put a stop to that. Everyone in the federal overdose. So then I read this a couple weeks ago. Let me see if I can get it. Come on. Wake up. Wakey, wakey. These good people are waiting so patiently. Come on, it worked all the other nights. Well, you'll just have to take my word for it. I was gonna have her tell you. I saw that this year they did some kind of award of how much the Clarksburg, West Virginia heroin rate has fallen and collapsed. They went from top in the nation to now it's like a model in West Virginia. What? You say are you taking all the credit for it? I'm not taking any credit for anything. But I did do what God told me to do. And we did have that meeting, and we did have several heroin dealers get saved and bring all their clients, and it took a few years after that, but the hold of the devil was broken in that place. Now, how many counties are there in the United States? Like 4,000, something like that? And so I the Great Commission is too big for any one person to bite off. Even Jesus cannot do it in a human body. That's why when he rose from the dead, what was his plan? You want me to stay, but that's not the plan. I'm gonna go into heaven and I'm gonna send the same spirit that indwelled me into you. So instead of there being one guy that's full of the Holy Ghost preaching and working miracles with 12 guys going, How'd you do that? Teach us to pray. You know, they were nothing. Before they got the Holy Ghost, if you ever feel bad about yourself or have low self-esteem, read Peter and Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. You'll feel like you're ready for sainthood. That guy said like two intelligent things in four books. And when he said them, the one intelligent thing he said, Jesus said, Who do men say that I am? Some say you're Elijah, some say you're that prophet. Who do you say that I am? Peter said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus said, Simon Peter, you've answered correctly. No man revealed this to you. You got that from my father. I know you didn't come up with that. That was God speaking through you. Because I know you didn't come up with that yourself. But then how about after he got filled with the Holy Ghost? How about after Peter got filled with the Holy Ghost? The same guy that couldn't speak about Jesus to three girls at a campfire and denied Christ when there were 3,000 plus men mocking. He stepped forward. The Bible says that they were all speaking in tongues, and the people in the crowd began mocking. That's the only tool the devil's ever had to try to stop the Holy Ghost. He can't stop it, he can only try to get you to be ashamed of it. And some of you go to this church because you like the music and you like that the pastor's not dead and that his wife's happy and not dead, and it's a nice place to go to church, and you put up with the tongues. But the tongues is where the action's at. The tongues is where the power comes from. If you lay down the tongues, you got nothing.

SPEAKER_03 25:36

But if you let God fill you with the Holy Ghost and let that fountain gush out of your mouth, rivers of living water.

SPEAKER_02 25:54

Hallelujah! The tongues is where the action's at. Smith Wigglesworth, when he got saved, wanted to get baptized in the Holy Ghost. This is Russell Johnson's favorite story. And so he went to a meeting that was supposed to be a Pentecostal meeting. He was going there to get it filled with the Holy Ghost. Wigglesworth was a fourth-grade educated plumber from Bradford, England, and he was a rough guy. And they said the guy was teaching on something, you know, and then after Wigglesworth had enough, after about 15 minutes of the guy's message, he cupped his hands by his mouth and went, Do the tongues! I came here to get baptized in the Holy Ghost. So let's get to the tongues part. Hallelujah. I said, Hallelujah. Yeah, it's power. Power to trample on serpents and scorpions. That means wherever the devil set up shop, you don't have no wrestling match with him. You boot him in the head. Mess up the devil. Mess up the devil's plan. Send him on the run. Send him running. What's the translation where it says um resist the devil and he will flee in brackets, run and tear from you? I think I have it now. Have you ever seen an evangelist break his phone on live television? Oh, hey, glad you could join us. I read that there was some kind of like recognition of how much the drug rate has fallen, specifically in the Clarksburg, West Virginia area. Did that happen or am I taking crazy pills? Come on. Never had so much trouble getting a woman to talk. I give up. Well, that's one quiet broad, I'll tell you that. Thanks for finding the scripture. Be subject to God. Resist the devil. Stand firm against him, and he will flee from you. And the original Greek connotates, not a fleeing, like, okay, a running in tear. They scream when they left their victims in Acts chapter 8. Can you say amen? I'm telling you, uh, I'm not trying, you know, my goal is not to up enrollment for Bible college. Our Bible college is $2,000 a year. We don't make money on that. I don't I was gonna make it free, but nobody values. If you play free fantasy football, people don't set their lineups. If people don't have anything invested, they don't care. So I just did enough that people are invested. But I'm telling you, if you're a younger person here and you're and you're looking for something to do in life, let God use you. I can't speak for everybody, but I'm fair. I hear all these ministers complain. One guy was writing on X, I finally had enough. He wrote, I'm a preacher's kid and I've been a pastor my whole life. I've never actually had a Christmas because I'm always in church. And I wrote to him, Do you mind if I send that to the martyrs in northern Nigeria so they can read what hardships you're having? You freaking big baby. If you if you become a complainer, you'll always find something to whine about. I'm sorry that you have to do two services on Sunday during Christmas and then go back to your air-conditioned huge home and eat. If you, I'm telling you, if you don't get involved in the Great Commission, you will slowly become a worthless Christian. Let me see Luke 13, 6. See, you would never get an amen on that outside of West Virginia. You've messed me up because my ministry is very unconducive to other states. You know, you'll become a worthless Christian. You have like 40% of the God. Amen. Otherwise, worthless? I have never. Who would speak to someone like that? Then Jesus told a story. A man planted a fig tree in his garden and came again and again to see if there was any fruit on it. And the husbandman of that field is God. And he was always what? Yeah. God's not thinking about your past sins he forgave you of. He's not disappointed that you used to drink in 1978 or 2008 or 2025 or shortly before the service and you're looking to get free. Okay, I guess we hit gold over there. But everybody say, once I get saved, God expects things of me. Yeah, instead of wondering why God's not, you know, which is a dumb way to think anyway, but look away. Why isn't God, why is it as if God's some big, dumb, slow taking his time? Rather than wonder why God's not doing what he said, why don't you look for what he said for you to do? Then commit yourself wholly to those things, and you will never lack any of those promises. I'm telling you tonight, you're crossing into a different dimension of your Christianity. Survival Christianity ended yesterday. And today you're gonna be a mighty wrecking ball for the kingdom of God. In Jesus' name. If you believe it, shout aloud amen. There we go. West Virginia reports show heroin's share of overdose deaths dropped dramatically over the last several years. One 2025 analysis said heroin was involved in only about 3% of overdose deaths in 2021, compared to over 26% in 2017. At the same time, overdose deaths overall in West Virginia have recently started declining after years of being extremely high. A 28 to 40% drop, and this is from two years back, because they don't have 2025 statistics yet, and they don't have this year's yet, because people that work in the government can't count and are slow. If you work in the government, forgive me. Pretend I didn't say that compared to 2023. Continued declines into 2025 and 2026. Say this out loud. I can put a stop to things that are evil in my generation. So, and I I told you, there was one Planned Parenthood near our church in Pittsburgh. I said, Do you think our church can stay open and grow and that place also stay open? I said, one of them's gonna close down. It ain't gonna be me. And they closed down last year. The first Pennsylvania Planned Parenthood that was shut down was the Moon Township one next to our church. And 50 some shut down last year. More shutting down this year. Planned Parenthood is almost bankrupt and maybe going under permanently. They are gonna go under permanently. I might buy that Planned Parenthood and make it a daycare just as a middle finger to the devil that you're not gonna do what you want, but we're gonna do what we want. Can you say amen? The devil's not gonna do what he wants, but you're gonna do what you want by the power of the Most High God. Hallelujah. I remember when they were making those announcements in 2022. Americans eat too much meat. You need to start looking into eating crickets. Don't tell me what to eat. Who are you to plan my meals? You know, if you want to get my blood pressure up, and I mean up, like where blood's trickling out of one ear, start planning my future for me. I feel like Michael Corleone and Godfather One, when they said Pop wants you to join the Navy. Oh, you had a discussion about my future. But at least that was his dad and his brother, not some jerk in Germany that's never met you and doesn't telling you you're gonna own nothing and be happy, you're gonna drive less, you're gonna lose, use less oil. Who do you think you are? See, if you don't, if you don't serve God, and if a nation won't serve God, then cruel people will come and take that nation over, and you wish for the day, like they're wishing in Iran right now, that you could have God and have church. But you see the same pattern repeated all through history that God delivers a nation, God prospers a nation, we we have an economy. Did you know there's a major problem in Britain right now? Because somebody did a study in an interview where they asked citizens in London, if England was a state, where would it rank economically? And the average guess was sixth or seventh. We'd probably, if England was a part of the United States, where would it rank economically in all 50 states? Well, we'd probably be behind New York and California and Texas and maybe and Florida, so fifth. Some people said sixth, some seven, some eight. Do you know where they'd rank? 51. Behind Mississippi. That's how blessed this nation is, and that's how declined. A nation that once ruled the earth, that the sun never set on the British Empire. But what did the Brits in their pride do? And I'm going to preach in England. I'm not, if you're watching from England, I'm for you. I'm just telling you, it does well to take a step back and wonder why things happened. What happened? When the people got got prosperous, England sent missionaries all over the world. Africa, China, everywhere. Huge churches. 6,000 seat churches in the day when 200 was a big church. And then what happened? Everybody got rich and was doing well, and they said, well, I'm not going to church this Sunday. That's the Sunday mom likes us to get together. She lives out in Logan, and that's the only day where we can all get in and meet. So, so yeah. So you start having brunch instead of church. And you start getting ready for a football game instead of church. I'm not anti-brunch and I'm not anti-football, but I am if they conflict. I've been making a point, and it worked in the spirit. Because every pastor, when you started in Pittsburgh, said, don't compete with the Steelers. If they're playing a home game on Sunday, you need to get the service out. Because if your church gets a reputation that uh, you know, there are people gonna miss kickoff in Pittsburgh, then they're not gonna come. I'm gonna tell you two things about me that I probably should keep to myself. Number one, if if that is how you are and you want to stay that way, I don't want you at my church. I want sinners at my church, but I don't want backslidden, lukewarm, half-baked, useless. I feel an independent fundamental Baptist anointing coming up here. Gravy, shopping, biscuiting. You can't build it, and that's why a lot of churches are big, but they're not healthy. And they're big, but they can't do anything. Meanwhile, and you don't have to pick between small and healthy and big and good. You can have both. But there's a lot of churches in the in the book of Acts. 120 people led 3,000 people to the Lord in one day. And you have a lot of churches now that have 3,000 people that don't lead 120 people to the Lord in two years, but that day has changed today.

SPEAKER_03 36:38

God is raising up Holy Ghost, fire-filled churches that are gonna shake America. I'm looking at one right now: Parkersburg, Ripley, where else? Hallelujah! Some shell revival! Praise the Lord!

SPEAKER_02 37:07

The devil can kiss my gospel grit. Brother Jonathan, when you go preach, there's a real principality in that region. Well, let the principality, you know, since you cook uh communicate with the devil so much and know where all the demons are, tell them it would be a good day to use, a good week to use all their vacation days. Because if not, they're gonna get kicked out. I feel like um, I feel like that one movie, what is it? A Bronx Tale, where those bikers come into that mafia bar and they don't know it's a mafia bar, and they're like messing around and cursing and knocking stuff over. And the owner comes out that's from in the mafia, and they don't and the bikers don't know, and he goes, Um, you guys have to leave. And they said, We're not leaving, and cursed at him, busted more stuff. And he walked over calmly to the door and locked it, and said in his Brooklyn accent, Now use can't leave. And then more guys came out of the back and beat him senseless. That's how I prepare for my messages. That's how I feel it's gonna be with the church of the Lord Jesus Christ and the powers of the devil. We're not looking to get away, we're not hoping you leave us alone. Now use can't leave. We're gonna remind you that you got your butt kicked on the cross of Jesus Christ 2,000 years ago.

SPEAKER_03 38:20

The devil's not over your head, the devil's not eye to eye, the devil's the same place today that he was yesterday, and it'll be tomorrow. Not over your head, not eye to eye, the devil is you can see it. I don't hear anybody of the Lord Say Son. Hallelujah.

SPEAKER_02 38:51

Praise God. I feel God mapping stuff out for me the second half of this year, a little before the second half of this year. June through December is gonna be bulldozing the devil. Praise God. Do you think no one's gone to jail for the corruption in America, but they just haven't covered it? There's a lot of people who've gone to jail. And now that Pam Bondi's out of the way and you got a real uh attorney general in there, there's gonna be a lot more that go to jail. This is a year of judgment from God against the powers of darkness that have tried to destroy people and take their money and mess them up. Next time you get a chance, if you want to get a little fired up, look at your paycheck. You think you make $700 a week or whatever. You actually make like $1,100 a week. $970. And it's deducted from taxes. If I was president of the United States, which will never happen, but if I was president of the United States, the first thing I would do would have nothing to do with gay marriage or abortion. I would pass a law that it's illegal to deduct taxes from people's paychecks so that every citizen had to go in and do what I do and some of you do, and write a check themselves and see how much money is coming out of your salary to go pay for transgender surgeries for prisoners so their uh wee we can become a hoo-a or whatever. Again, you're very odd church people, but I'm here for it. Yeah, you pay for that. And so they keep giving out benefits. I'm all for helping people that are in need. I'm not for uh a convicted murderer that wants to be Janice, being able to become Janice on my dollar. That has nothing to do with being a Christian, that's just sense. Can you say amen? And this is an election year. You're gonna hear about every politician that's running saying we want to extend early school care to everybody, and we want to extend after school care. Of course you do. You want every man working all day, you want their wives working all day, without two nickels to run rub together at the end of the day, while the state educates the children from 7 a.m. till 5 p.m. Then the devil doesn't care if you take them to church 1.9 Sundays a month, which is the average amount that a that a U.S. Christian goes to church. I got a question. Why? Why do you not go to church on Sunday? Why? All 52, why not? Travel baseball? You should be glad I'm not your pastor. I had a family come up to me that's in travel baseball. They said, our son's sick. I said, have your little league coach pray for him. That's where your money's at, and that's where you go. Yeah, it's a miracle we have anybody in our church. I was sure within two months it'd be me and my wife staring at each other and her thinking of leaving. But it turned out people actually want a pastor. And somebody not to soft soap everything. Yeah. Quit making plans on Sunday morning. It doesn't even have to be the Lord's Day. It's like it's not the book of Acts where you're going to church, you're getting up to walk to church at seven in the morning and stay till uh uh 10 p.m. whenever they got out. They had a church. You think services are long now? Read the book of Acts. Even Luke was suddenly complaining when he wrote it. He wrote several times as Paul continued to preach on and on. That's like a subtle. All right, wrap it up, huh? Paul had a kid, I think his name was like Eudychus, that was sitting in a window and he got tired. The Bible, this is Luke again. As Paul continued preaching on and on, the flickering of the lights made him drowsy, and the kid that was sitting in the window fell out of the window to his death. Paul went out, raised him from the dead, sat him back down, and said, as I was saying, point number 17. They were at church all day in the book of Acts. You can't clear 85 minutes, 90 minutes, whatever church is last now, even if you go to one that's longer, two hours, you can't, and you think you're on fire for God, you're deceiving yourself. I don't pastor here. You can go to church, no Sonny's. I don't get commissioned on whether you come. I'm telling you for your own good. You should stop carving out American excuses for why you have a lukewarm commitment to Christ and make up your mind today. As for me and my house, we're not going halfway in, we're going all the way in with Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_03 43:13

And as you do, you will see God reward you in a great way. If you believe it and you can testify to it, take 15 good seconds. Clap your hands, all ye people. Hallelujah!

SPEAKER_02 43:34

Get that lady that was in the wheelchair in New Mexico. I feel like having some fun tonight. Praise God. That's an odd sentence, but it'll make sense in a little bit. So this was uh October during the election when I felt Iran was gonna come open. And so this is way before the fact this is October 2024 before anything happened. Just the Russians. We can take it into the Arabic world, and it it looks like don't ask me why I'm dressed like a substitute. Teacher in a 90s sitcom. This is Mr. John. He'll be teaching history today until Mr. Lores gets better. Keep going. A regime change is gonna happen in Iran. Did you hear Benjamin Netanyahu said that the people the people in Iran don't don't like their leadership? And I'm telling you, you're gonna have a new leadership soon. And they've taken out all the Hezbollah elements, and now as of today, there's an Iranian leader who's exiled to America who said he's gonna go back and run for president. So you know that if he's doing that, the CIA in Israel told him we got your back. So imagine that country comes open to the gospel, and we've already been reaching it because I'm preaching now in Farsi, thanks to AI. And then I already played that for you. Everybody say Iran. I'm gonna tell you the other one. Venezuela. By the way, when I told you there's a judgment, you should watch my December 31st, 2025 prophecy for this year. Because I gotta say, it's pretty on the money. You can give the credit to the Holy Ghost. I wasn't guessing. I said that Venezuela and Iran are gonna come under, their leadership's gonna come under judgment. So, I mean, Maduro was captured in like 48 hours with that sound beam weapon they have that knocks you off your feet, hits you with never never killed anybody, never fired any shots. They were in and out in 40 minutes and got them. Then that one drug cartel leader that they got from Mexico, did you know he had killed over a hundred pastors and shut over a hundred churches down? The cartels recruit youth. So if you have a church and your youth group starts to grow, they tell you to knock it off, and if you don't knock it off, they they take you out, put you in a lime bath, and dissolve your body. You think God? I'm telling you. There comes a point when you read the Bible where God's had enough. People shaking their fists think they're God. That they're gonna stop the gospel. You gotta be smoking some bad crack. Not even good crack, bad crack, discount crack, Costco crack, TJ Maxx crack with a red tag on it. Crack that they're clearing out from last fall. Okay, you guys like drugs, murder, assault. Okay, noted. Taking notes. Yeah. And that's what's happening right now. The devil will not write the final chapter of world history, and the devil will not write the final chapter of U.S. history. The people that God's gonna use, I said it the other night. One woman used of the devil got prayer taken out of school nationally. Another woman used of the devil got abortion legal nationally. If two women used by the devil can affect that much change, what can one woman who's full of the Holy Ghost who raised Christ Jesus from the dead do in their generation? What can one man who says, Lord, I don't want to just I don't want to just start being more faithful to church and reading my Bible more faithfully. I want to go a step further. I want to push the nitrous button on the car. Fill me with the Holy Ghost. I'll do what you tell me to do. I'll go where you tell me to go. I'll say what you tell me to say. I'm yours to command. You will find that God will take you up on that offer. I used to be blurting that out when I was six and seven at altars, as I'm guessing you did too. And apparently at one of those times, God said, You have a deal, my speech-impaired friend. So you guys like my mocking my disability. Okay. Great to be in West Virginia. I'm pouring out my heart here. I got this lady just laughing at my speech impediment. Ushers, take her out. Get her out of here. God took me up on it. How are you gonna preach when you can't even speak? Because in Christ, your weakness is turned. God doesn't just help you in your weakness, your weakness is turned to strength. Can you say amen? Praise God. Hallelujah. Iran's gonna come up with the gospel. And the Middle East before Jesus comes back, mark it down and remember I said it. The Middle East before Jesus comes back is gonna be like Africa was in the 1950s when TL Osborne and Morrisarilla were tearing through that place. It's gonna be an open harvest field for the preaching of the gospel. Now, again, if you study Bible prophecy, when Trump went over and signed those Abraham Accords with the Arab nations, those guys are not hard-line Muslims. They're very moderate Muslims. They're like lukewarm Christians in Islam. They don't really like it that much. And they want to make money, and they see how the way Islam is, where you can't do anything with Jews or Westerners, is stupid. So Trump goes over, signs those deals, and they're gonna make trillions of dollars. Well, you can't do business with America and be lopping pastors' heads off. So even right now, I'm gonna tell you how much things have flipped. In Ireland, less than 2% of the population goes to church right now. Less than 2%. United Arab Emirates, 14% of the population goes to church, up from zero just a few years back. That leader where Dubai is that leader of the United Arab Emirates built buildings so that Christians can have services on Sunday in those buildings and are protected to not be persecuted. So you have Europe moving against the church, and you have the Middle East opening the door for the gospel. I'm gonna tell you something. I pray for that king in Saudi Arabia, I pray for all the Emirates, I pray for the prince in the United Arab Emirates. Those nations are gonna come wide slam open to the gospel. And we're not gonna watch it happen. We're gonna be the first people on the ground to tell those people that haven't heard it publicly in 1100 years. Jesus loves you. There's a better way. You don't have to die in your sin. He'll heal your children, he'll set you free from whatever the devil's done.

SPEAKER_03 50:01

Praise the Lord. And I'm telling you, he'll do it in Iran, he'll do it in Venezuela, and he'll do it in Ripley, West Virginia, because he's the God of all who believe.

SPEAKER_02 50:16

Somebody shout hallelujah! You know you're anointed when you can get West Virginians to hand clap for Arabs getting saved. But you didn't think you'd be doing that tonight. That's right. You're a good guy, sir. Can you say amen? He loves everybody. Stop thinking Muslim is a race. Those Muslim Islam's a religion. The people are Arab or Persian, and Jesus died for them. Can you say amen? And you'd be a Muslim too if they'd cut your head off if you weren't. There's no choice. It's wicked. It's wicked to enslave a nation and not let the gospel in. I just want to say public. I'm not trying to be like Mr. Tough Guy or anything. But I would just like to say so God can hear me. Use me. I'll be happy to be the first one over. I'm gonna do it. Can you say amen? You say isn't it, isn't it dangerous? That's why I'm gonna wear my Royal Ranger uniform. I hope they give me a special badge for going to preach in Iran. Somewhere in that. My dad was doing a meeting in Pakistan, and I said, Dad, if you get arrested, I'm gonna fly a plane over there with a bunch of guys from Blackwater in Virginia Beach. And I said, Wherever, whatever prison you're in, steer clear of the wall because you're gonna watch it blow out, and a big hole's gonna open up. And I'm gonna be standing there in my Royal Ranger uniform with the buttons bowed from when I was 12 years old. And I'm gonna say, get to the chopper. Hallelujah. Yeah. I'm not letting the the devil's not gonna tell us where we can go and where we can't go. I see walls falling down. Praise God. You say, what's the point of preaching about Iran coming open in um West Virginia? I'll tell you what, because when you start focusing your faith to take nations, all of a sudden it doesn't seem like such a big deal to believe God to clear the devil out of your house. If God can set Iran free and he's going to, then God can take alcoholism out of your personal bloodline forever. God can take the PTSD out of you from the torch that you served in war. Make your mind clear again. God can take disease out of your blood. God can dry every cancer out of your body up and have it pass from your body. The devil's not gonna write the last chapter in Iran, and the devil's not gonna write the final chapter in your family. I prophesy in the name of Jesus: you and your house will serve the Lord.

SPEAKER_03 52:39

Every backslidden child, every backslidden grandchild that are coming into the kingdom. This is revival. Hallelujah.

SPEAKER_02 52:55

Everybody say a scripture with me. Let me see Romans 1, 14, 15, and 16. What a tremendous responsibility I feel. I have a great obligation. I have, see, this is Paul. When you get full of the Holy Ghost, you'd understand this verse. I have a great sense of obligation to people in both the civilized world and the rest of the world, to the educated and uneducated alike. That's something that happens when you get filled with the Holy Ghost. Acts don't put it up. Just keep Romans 1:14 up. They'll have to take my word for it on Acts 4. The Bible says, when they were praying, they said, Lord, fill us with the Holy Ghost. They got filled, they spoke in tongues, the building shook. And the Bible says, then they went everywhere and preached with great boldness. Everybody said, Great boldness. Now, this is not great boldness. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'm about a four, but I'm getting better. I need to be more bold. Paul said that. Pray that God would make me more bold in preaching the gospel. And people make up reasons why they're obviously you guys aren't offended. The crowd's up, not down. But uh he says a lot of things that are offensive. Probably because you're backslidden. He talks too much about money, says the non-giver. Yeah, if you're an adulterer, you don't want to hear about adultery. If you're in in in if you're a tight wad, you don't want to hear about giving. But when you're living right for God, there's no subject anybody could dwell on for any length of time that's going to bother you. Like hearing about heaven, like hearing about the blessing of God, love hearing about healing, love hearing about faith. You can't talk about faith enough, or I'd call it hyper faith or too much. How you hyper faith? He's in that hyper faith. What do you mean? Like the kind where you speak to a mountain and tell it to move? Faith works. Yeah. I was preaching. Say a scripture with me. Or not a scripture. Say this saying with me. Say the power of God travels on faith-filled words.

unknown 54:52

Faith-filled words.

SPEAKER_02 54:53

Just like if you ever went to the doctor and got a bad report and they said, you know, this is what's wrong, and it's probably going to get worse, and you're probably not going to be able to do this anymore, you started feeling the life and energy drain out of you. Some of you have a relative when they call, might only be an eight-minute phone call, but you have to lay down for an hour and a half after. You have to take a nap because it sucked the life out of you, because it's all depressing. Well, it's the opposite, too. When you start speaking up to people by the Bible, you're going to make it. The battle is not yours, it's the Lord's. Stuff like that. Jesus will take your heavy burden. People start lifting, and you can literally, we've done it. Preach somebody out of a wheelchair. Teal Osborne used to do it when he preached in America. Just stand in front of some guy in a wheelchair. Your back's getting stronger, brother. Jesus is strengthening you. You just stand there and come back to him, do it again. Till the guy came out of the wheelchair. The power of God travels on faith-filled words. When you don't know what to do, start opening up your mouth and saying things out of the Bible. Like Psalm 118, 17. I will live and not die, that I may declare the goodness of the Lord while I'm yet in the land of the living. Thank you, Jesus, that by your stripes I am healed. Thank you that it's God that forms the seeing eye and forms the hearing ear. Thank you for hearing. Thank you for sight. Thank you for opening doors that are closed and closing open doors that need closed. Hallelujah. Thank you that you have the key of David and are the heir to his throne. Thank you that you're fighting for me and I'm with you. I'm not against you. Thank you that you're making every crooked path straight. Just start finding scriptures, and you're gonna find they don't talk about you getting beaten down. They talk about they will possess the double. I will restore their joy. There are, I know the plan I have for you. Plans to prosper you and never to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. I'm not going down, I'm going up. He that began a good work in me, he that began a good work in you is bringing it to completion. You start talking like that, you're gonna you won't make the devil? The devil will not stay in a room where you talk like that. The devil goes after soft targets. He likes people that have their shoulders slumped, sitting in a dark room, crying. But if you'll stand up, lift up holy hands under God without wrath or doubting, and do what the Bible says.

SPEAKER_03 57:15

Praise ye the Lord. Let everything that has breath, praise ye the Lord. You'll clear the devil out of your house. You'll clear the devil out of your body. You'll clear the devil out of your mind. You'll clear the devil out of your spirit. You lose the hold of the devil on your children. I'm telling you, tonight in West Virginia, God is setting you free.

SPEAKER_02 57:45

Somebody shout hallelujah. Praise God. Hallelujah. Porosh te kandiera bo. Prostoreka. Indiana mondi. Piscandiere boto. Tondoreka. Eskondi orobo re Tindiono te. Brosto re kandie. E kandiorobo. I come into agreement with you. Whatever you started believing God for, you were hearing the word, an irreversible situation that you started thinking, I believe maybe God can turn this around. I tell you, it's turning around right now. Everything you're believing for, God's going to show you that He's faithful to His Word. The battle is not yours, it is the Lord's, and you've already won. So rejoice and be glad, for the Lord has given you the victory.

SPEAKER_03 58:42

Hallelujah. May I hear the sound of the armies of the Lord, the devil. If I were him, I'd be nervous. There's enough firepower in this room to give me sorry but kidnapped a whisper shape.

SPEAKER_02 59:42

Everybody say the power of God travels on faith-filled words. It enters people's bodies. Just like you can depress somebody by saying negative things, you can encourage somebody by saying positive things, and you can make the dead live by saying God things out of God's word. Let me pray for my friend from uh the two from RAV that came all the way over. Saw me on the news. Praise God. Hallelujah. Jesus is on you. Praise God. Love you guys. I'm gonna miss you. Pray for the wife first. Let's both hands, close both eyes. I know God's already touched this week, but here comes a double portion. Praise God. Thank you, Jesus. Everything is turning around for your good. Be healed. Receive a miracle in your body. And then I pray this kind of selfishly because I like you and you're not replaceable. But I thank you for this. Good guy that loves you and loves America. Now strengthen his body, I ask you. In your heart, in Jesus' name. Thank you, Lord. Praise God. I know at some churches, they teach guys like me, push people down. But if you think I pushed him down, you need to take a physics class. Anybody say God's power is real? Do you know there was a pastor in West Virginia? I wish I could ask my grandpa, but he's he's in heaven now. Um, it was the guy that pastored up in Fairmont in Ida May before he took the church. He was a gold gloves boxing champion. But I don't think anybody in the town knew it. So he went there. They were pioneering Pentecost. People, you think people don't like tongues now? You should have should have should have been around in the 40s and 50s. So he went to the barber shop to go get his hair cut. There were some coal miners in there, and they said, uh, Pastor So-and-so, I heard you can get the ladies to lay down for you at that church. I mean, they'd fall out under the power, and they all laughed. And he went over, grabbed the guy to the barber chair, and knocked him out with a straight right cross and went, and get the men to lay down too. That's West Virginia. Praise God. Grew the church. Grew the church. Where are you going? You going to St. Mary, Our Lady of the Ascension? Now I'm gonna go over to that guy that knocked out the guy in the barber chair. I like that guy. Praise God. Everybody say the power of God travels on faith-filled words. Check this out. This is New Mexico a couple years ago. May I? Hey, look at you. You were here another night, right? I prayed for you. You're doing better. I see a difference. What?

SPEAKER_03 1:02:34

No.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:37

Amen.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:39

What? No. Bring me that wheelchair. Stay with me. Stay with me. This is that wheelchair. Six and a half years. Listen to the wheelchair. Don't run that lady over. She's a nice lady. She was a nice lady. I wanted to say anything. Alright. Let's do this just to take the devil off. Let me have a little ride. Give me a ride. She said, I don't want to touch that. Let me have a ride. No, I know. Do this to take the devil off. He'll be angry. Jesus will be happy. Give me a ride across the island.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:50

Can you take me up? Wait a minute.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:09

Praise the Lord. Alright, that's good. I don't want to kill this lady. Alright, now listen. Let me do one thing. Put one hand on your heart, put your other hand on your belly. All those organs that have been crushed from being in a seated position all the time, the Lord's gonna rejuvenate all your digestive organs. Liver, pancreas, kidneys, new heart. God will help you. In Jesus' name. Bring it back to me. So then everybody says, keeps going. So then what happened to her? We started that church in Arizona. I announced we were gonna have a healing weekend. And then in the back, I thought I recognized her. I said, Is that you? Were you lady that used to be in the wheelchair in Hobbes, New Mexico? Hobbes, New Mexico is eastern New Mexico by Texas. And she said, Yeah. I said, How long did it take you to drive here? She said, six and a half hours. I said, You still out of the wheelchair? Yeah. She's thinner. It was hard enough staying thin when you can move. And she said, I said, What made you drive all this way out? She said, My grandson has autism. I brought him for prayer. So what happened? When you get healed, or you let God do a miracle for you and your family, it does something to you. Where you start believing God for miracles and drive six. See, that was a lady that won't even go to church. Now she's driving six and a half hours one way in expectation. She didn't come to hear me preach. She came to get the autism knocked out of her grandson. Because she realizes if God can do that for my spinal cord, then he can do this for my grandson. And that's why the devil should be very nervous. Because not only have you been receiving things from God, but it's growing your faith. And now you're going to start little by little taking ground from the devil. You might be the only one saved in your family, but very shortly. Brother will come. God will save your whole family because it's part of the covenant. Salvation has come to you and your house. It only takes one person in a family to break the whole of the devil. That's why when you start going to a church like this, your family flips upon you. We've never had a strong about anything. We never asked you what you were doing before. You go out drinking black out drunk five minutes in a row. Nobody said a thing. But then you go to this church four nights in a row.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:46

It's a lot of yellow. Thanks, man.

That had a tweety bird tattoo that has slowly morphed to a big bird tattoo. We appreciate your opinions about the church. If you want to know where the actions at, you should realize how come nobody ever cared when you went to some dead church that you hated going to, that never did anything to make you break the hold of alcoholism, never did anything to break the hold of the devil on your family. Then you started getting around the fire, and every Tom, Dick, and Harry came out of the woodwork to tell you where to go to church. You have to tell them to shut down the mouse and make them up to mind. I have to decide the funnel of Jesus. No turning man. No turning man.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:30

If you make up to my fire now, stick around from the wicked settlement.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:56

One more time, the Lord is killed. Heaven is mercy indoors for another. Now lift your hands and if you're filled with the Holy Ghost, be in the prayer of the Holy Ghost. If you never fill to still Jesus, I love you. I worship you. Thank you for filling me with your power tonight. Thank you for power this week.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:15

Now I'm being made strong.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:46

We're coming back to the graduate Bible school? Just put your Bible down on the altar. Let me get to your hands. Now, as you followed God's plan for your life, I command a big wide door of ministry to open. Full time. Everything that God's shown you, I joined my faith. I command that door come open.

Thank you, Jesus. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Everybody lift your hands. Everyone that's been called into the ministry and you did Bible calls, you did everything the Lord told you to do. It's like a door hasn't early opened. I command the door to open now. Jesus has the key of David and is the heir to his throne. He opens a door and no man can shut it. As a reward for being in God's house tonight, receive an open door. In Jesus' name. Yes. Have I seen you before? Where? Maryland. If I was a prophet, I would have known, but I'm an evangelist, so I have to ask a lot of questions. With both hands, close both eyes as you do the power of God comes upon you. Thank you, Jesus. I feel similarly as with that other guy. The hand of the Lord comes upon you, open a door. You feel like right now you're like on plan B. Well, God's gonna put you on plan A. Jesus. Let me have the Adams family. A lot of pastors here tonight. Lift both hands, close both eyes. Any kind of impediment that you've hit in the growth of that church. And I don't know anything about it. I've just been preaching and playing video games. But if you've hit an impediment where it's like a hiccup, the Lord removes that hiccup and the growth. The way you had supernatural growth to get you to that point, that resumes now.

SPEAKER_04 1:11:38

In Jesus' name. In the name of Jesus. In Jesus' name.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:47

Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. You a pastor? Just dress like a pastor. Is this guy a pastor? No? Just dress like one? Well, I'm gonna pray for you because you tricked me.

SPEAKER_01 1:11:57

SPEAKER_02 1:12:02

Just a deacon. That's a good thing. That's what Stephen was. Oh, yeah? I bet you won't have it for long. Put one hand on your belly and lift the other one up to the Lord.

Which is line everybody up to lay hands on you without losing the anointing. So don't start tapping people on the shoulder and talking or checking your phone. I'm gonna turn the mic. Let me pray for this lady in the green shirt here. Come right up. Put the Bible college information up. Since I talked about the ministry all night accidentally, might as well give people an outlet to do something with it. Lift your hands right there. Close both eyes. Power of God's on you. Tonight is a breakthrough and turnaround night. Yes. Breakthrough and turnaround. Hallelujah. I pray for this lady with the red hair. I pray for you. Come right up. Lift both hands, close, both eyes. Thank you, Jesus. Well, you definitely can't say God's racist. New blood. New blood. Any disease in the blood comes out. Jesus. Praise God.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:24

Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:32

I command you to live and not die, deacon. Foul cancer. Don't ever come back. Jesus' name. Stupid devil. Let me pray for this guy in the Western shirt with the snap buttons. I'd wear something like that. I like those kind of shirts. Lift both hands, close, both eyes. As you do, the power of God comes upon you. Yes. The baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire. Yeah.

Praise God. If you're a pastor or in Bible college or in the full-time full-time ministry, line up across the throne. I'm gonna pray for you. You first if you'd like prayer, nobody has to get prayer. If you're watching online, you can text prayer to 75767. Go ahead and sing that. As they line up. Lift your hands once you get to the front.

SPEAKER_07 1:16:29

Of the leg. Oh there is power. Power wonder working power. In the pre just blood of the leg one.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:21

Let me have uh this lady with the glasses and dress. Yes. Just join them at the end. Only hands on you as well. Praise God. All the ministers at the front, lift your hands. I know this is the kind of thing that charismatic people say, but I'm not saying it like spooky. I'm saying it mathematically. I command you to double by December 31st. Your children's ministry, your youth ministry, your Sunday attendance, whatever you do, I command it to double. And I command the offerings to double to keep pace with the growth. So that you're not you're not dealing with more cars and more everything with the same amount of money. Money to keep pace with the growth. In Jesus' name. This guy in the purple shirt, lift your hands even higher. The power of God's on you. Very strong. Here comes a strong anointing to minister. In Jesus' name. There it is. Thank you, Lord.

SPEAKER_07 1:21:20

Oh fairies. Want to working power. In the bread, just love. Oh very one to worky power.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:43

Here the breath just for the Helen in Texas, David in Florida, Daniel in Morgantown, West Virginia, healing from long-term pain. Julia in Salisbury, Massachusetts, Kim in Canyon County, Canyon Country, California. Paul in Valrico, Florida, Angela in Phoenix, Arizona. Angela, we have a church in Phoenix where you live Saturday at 10 a.m. My dad's gonna be there. You should go. Christine in Carlsbed, New Mexico. Kathy in Newman, Lake Washington. Regina in Hyattesville, Maryland. Elizabeth in North Carolina, Vanessa. Jeff. Jeff in Ripley, West Virginia. I'm not praying for you. You can come tomorrow night. Robert in Angleton, Texas. Include you in these prayers. Praise God. I want you to say something with me. Say foreign religion will never set up shop in America. Be seated briefly. Put Deuteronomy 28-48 on the screen in the New Living Translation. And if I pray for you? Forty-seven. If you do not serve the Lord your God with joy and enthusiasm for the abundant benefits you've received, then you will serve your enemies, whom the Lord will send against you. You'll be left hungry, thirsty, naked, and lacking in everything. The Lord will put an iron yoke on your neck, oppressing you harshly until he's destroyed you. 49. Just wanted to close out with an encouraging scripture. Look at this now. Go back to 47. What's the root of all this? If you won't serve the Lord your God with joy and enthusiasm, I was glad when they said unto me, let's go to the house of the Lord. I'll enter his gates with thanksgiving in my heart. Because you want to do that for the abundant benefits you've received. Even if you live in Ripley or this area and you're poor, you have a climate-controlled home with a flat screen television and a flushing toilet. Unless somebody clogged it. Is that a word of knowledge? So even poor people here are rich. If you travel, you'd see that. When you hear Americans say they don't believe in pro I don't believe in that prosperity stuff, yeah, you do. You got shoes on. Got a vehicle out there, even if it's not a good one that's held together by K Love bumper stickers, you still got one. It is absolutely asinine, idiotic to live in America and say you don't believe in prosperity. You don't even, you don't have sense. You have prosperity. There's parts of the country where the parts of the world where the average person makes two dollars a day or less. I I preached in one church, I won't say the nation because it embarrasses me. I asked the pastor, I said, how much do your people eat? He said, the ones that have money eat every day. Most of them eat every other day. No one's wondering that here. You know? You just decided between taco bells and parties or sheets and dollar dogs. So God said, I'm happy to bless you, but I'm asking for something in return. The first day of every week, come back to my house and remind me that you haven't forgotten where it came from. And you carve two hours out of your 168-hour week to be in my house and give me pride. If you can't, then you're in what's called pride. Humility is not walking around like this. Humility is honoring God, returning to God the thanks and honor that belong to Him and recognition. Well, what happened in England? You got churches that send missionaries all over the world that see 2,000 people. There's 11 people there on Sunday. They don't have time for church. And now they're converting them to no. And they want to do it. They sent the gospel all over the world and then fell away from God at home. And the economy's collapsed. In four of the five boroughs of London, the most popular name for a boy that was born in London last year was what? Muhammad. In England. You know why? Because you won't serve me with joy and enthusiasm. Why do you go to a church where it sounds like they're having Jesus' funeral every Sunday? Dead music, dead preaching, dead everything. If you open a candy wrapper, you can hear it like it's in surrounding. Sound, you're in the wrong church. Man, some churches you go to, it has the same movement and sound as an armed robbery. If you don't serve the Lord your God with joy and enthusiasm, so not just go. With joy and enthusiasm, praising him. The praise music is not to give people time to park. I'll enter his gates with thanksgiving in my heart. Sunday is what day of the week? The seventh or the first? God has something called the law of first things. Firstborn, first 10% of your money, first everything. And you take the first hours of the new week, give it to me, and I'll just like with the tithe. People that don't tithe can't understand. How can I live on 10% less? You're not. 90% blessed beats 100% unblessed. And when you I don't have time for judge, you'd be surprised if you plant yourself in God's house for those hours. He'll bless you in the rest of the week. If you don't serve the Lord your God with joy and enthusiasm for the abundant benefits you've received, you're gonna serve somebody. Who will you serve? 48. You will serve your enemies, whom the Lord will send against you. You'll be left hungry, thirsty, and naked and lacking in everything. I would like to avoid that. The Lord will put an iron yoke on your neck, oppressing you harshly till you're destroyed. The Lord will bring a distant nation against you from the end of the earth, and it will swoop down on you like a vulture. It is a nation whose language you don't understand, a fierce and heartless nation that shows no respect for the old and no pity for the young. In our generation, the fulfillment of that is Islam. When America started to drift from God, there was Islamic integration. It's prophetic. Church attendance goes down, Islam moves in, and America was this close to becoming just like England. And it's happening in Ch in uh Canada right now. I'm gonna say China because it is taken over by China. The Middle East is in England, and China is in Canada. That's why they're doing assisted suicide in Canada. They need organs for China. You come in and tell them you're depressed and you're 25, they say, Have you thought about medical assisted suicide? They need those kidneys, they need those livers. Love of money is the root of all evil. And so when nations go away from God, something else comes in that's harsh and destroys the people. But America, right when it looked like it was gone. This it's like the Americans, what they meant COVID to do to destroy the nation actually woke people up. Some of you would have never been in a service like this six years ago, ever. But you're in them all now because you saw through it. And the devil did what he does best, made a plan that backfired in his face. And now you're awake, and now you're serving the Lord with joy. You don't go to church on Sunday. You've been Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday because now the devil's plan is backfired. There's not a revival coming. Statistically, there's a did you know um if you if you're one of those people that that longed for the good old days of God-fearing America, 17% of people during the Revolutionary War went to church on Sunday. It's at 43% right now. Either Pugh or Barna, I can't remember which one, that released a study this year that 66% of Americans say they have made a personal commitment to Jesus Christ that is still meaningful in their lives today. Yeah, they're not gonna cover that on the news, but it's there.

unknown 1:31:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:31:41

You watch the news, you think America, you can always tell preachers that don't go outside. America's in trouble. Quit watching TV. Yes, someone will probably get knocked out at a taco bell in Philadelphia tonight. That's not America. That's one taco bill. Can you say amen? Yes, there's 340 million people here. You're gonna find, you know, uh brother Jeff that travels with me for security. He sold me what I you know what I what I feel too for me. He said, traveling on the road with you makes me feel different about America because everywhere you go, it's great. They make you make it sound like California, Sodom, and Gomorrah. You go out there and hold meetings. There's great Christians there, like there is here, that are super strong and great pastors. And they don't cover on the news, but I'm telling you, this country is on the uptick and it's gonna uptick more. And if I were old and thinking about dying, I'd stick around for two more years because the best is yet to come. Can you say amen? The devil had his shot and it was a swing and a miss, and now it's God's turn and he ain't missing. This generation shall be shaken by the power of God in Jesus' name. So I want you to say this with me strong churches make a strong country. That's why there's a fight. That's why he's vilified, he's vilified. I don't know that they're vilified, I just I guarantee they are. Because you can't build something for God without ticking the devil off. So then there's Facebook groups, he's a false prophet. He's not even a true prophet, he's a pastor. He's a false prophet. What does he? He's a pastor. You're a false prophet. I'm an evangelist. Says it right on my website. Learn to read. Pastor Dave's a false prophet. Here, a false prophet, there a false prophet. Everybody's a false prophet that I don't like. And so that's all they can do is obfuscate and say stuff, but they can't stop the power of God. And this church in Ripley is the smallest it's ever gonna be. It's gonna get very large and cause a lot of problems for the devil. All of the pastors that are here today is the smallest that your church will ever be. God is building his church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
