WHY SOME CHRISTIANS CARRY AUTHORITY.. AND OTHERS DON'T | Richard Lorenzo Jr.
"Why Some Christians Carry Authority… and Others Don't"
In this message, Pastor Richard explores the difference between believers who walk in real spiritual authority and those who don't — not as a matter of gifting or personality, but of what's been formed in them. The heart of the message is that authority isn't claimed or performed; it's cultivated through surrender, obedience, and intimacy with God. Those who carry weight in the spirit are those who have been tested, refined, and made faithful in the hidden place. The message calls believers to stop striving for influence and instead submit to the process that produces genuine authority — the kind that comes from being under authority, rooted in character, and yielded to the Holy Spirit.

That's where we will go I have it in my face I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith Heavy promise I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I'm gonna live by faith I'm gonna live by faith I'm gonna live by faith I'm gonna live by faith We will live by faith We will live by faith I will live by faith I have I have I have the victory I'm gonna live by faith I have the victory I will live by faith I got the victory
I will live by faith I got the victory That's why I'm saying That's why I'm saying That's why you're saying That's why we're saying I'm gonna live by faith I got the victory I will live by faith I got the victory. I'm gonna live by faith. We're gonna live by faith. You will live by faith. Say Jesus. Say Jesus. I'm gonna say this real quick. You see in Christ we're more than conquerors because Jesus, listen though, before you clap, catch this in your heart. Jesus Christ already won the victory on the cross. So but listen though, we're not fighting for victory, we're fighting from victory. So when someone, I need the production team to turn on my microphone so they can hear it. When someone fights from victory, they're enforcing it. So we're not fighting trying to be victorious. We're enforcing the victory that we've been given from the cross. Listen, because some of you are fighting like you're trying to be saved or you're fighting like you're trying to make it and that's why you're fighting from a place of striving. We enforce. Everyone say I enforce. Say I enforce. Say I have authority. Say Jesus already won. So I already won. Y'all ready? So when we say this, I want y'all to really say it like you mean it. Ready? I got the victory. I won't live by faith. Together, together, together. I got the victory. I won't live by faith. Come on. I got the victory. I won't live by faith. I got the victory. I won't live by faith. I got the victory. I won't live by faith. I got the victory.
I won't live by faith. I need it. I got the victory. I won't live by faith. Hold on. I feel like some people are looking at me crazy. Do you really know you have the victory in Christ? So should we be fighting this walk or walking this walk? Scared of demons. Do you know what it means when I say the devil's under my feet? The devil's not under my feet because of me. The devil's not under my feet because I'm gifted. The devil's not under my feet because of anything I've done. I've been gifted salvation. And that word salvation in the Hebrew is the word Yeshua. And that word Yeshua doesn't just mean a savior for salvation to go to heaven. It means a deliverer. I've been delivered. I've been healed. I've been freed. Every sin has been broken. So listen. The best freedom you'll receive is knowing that you're already victorious. As a matter of fact, you're more than a conqueror. Man, I just hope and pray. Let's turn now real quick. Let's turn now real quick. I don't even need that right now. I don't even need no emotional. I want y'all to listen to me for real, but then we're going to turn up, okay?
Because I see half the people or I say a quarter of everybody like, yeah, but then some of you are like, huh? No, for real. And you've been a Christian for so long, but you don't even know you have the victory by what Jesus Christ did on the cross. Because if we did, we'd be worshiping and praising like we really got it. Like I know I got it. Do we have the victory when we're perfect? Do we have the victory when we fall short? Do we have the victory when, when we're down in the dumps? When depression is hitting us, do we still have the victory? Then why do people get attacked and oppressed by these things? I'll tell you why. Because they're not enforcing it. I enforce the truth over every lie of the devil. So when Satan comes and I feel an atmosphere that causes an emotion that's not of God, I don't come in agreement. I enforce the truth. Because some of you in the, you're looking at me like, please, maybe you saved me. Jesus Christ, what he did on the cross is everything you need. Now you need to enforce it, but you don't get it. I haven't been in a church in 10 years and I came here today, hopefully that my, hoping that my life will change. Your life changes when you believe that you're more than a conqueror. I don't care how many church services you've been to. I don't care if you went to seminary school, if you didn't. I don't care what you've heard or what you've done. It doesn't matter. If you believe in the Lord. truth and you enforce it. Everyone say enforce. When a cop pulls you over, let's say you're five deep in a car and you're strapped up and one cop pulls you over, don't they have the authority to arrest all five of you? Don't people put down their guns and not even try to fight against the cops most of the time? Because the cop has the authority even though he's solo against five armed people. It's because the cop has authority. So when a demon comes against you, I don't care
if it's a legion, I don't care if it's 10,000 demons. It doesn't matter. We have the authority to enforce what our savior did on the cross and say devil you already lost. As a matter of fact, you know in the, you know back in those days whenever someone would conquer a region, you know what they would do? Listen to me. You know what they would do? They would take the people, the king that they conquered and they would drag them through the city in chains to boast and and brag and say look we conquered this region. The bible says when Jesus went on the cross he disarmed every principality power and made a public open embarrassment spectacle of him. So if Jesus already did that to the devil, why are you living like the devil still has victory in your life? I don't care what religion says. I don't care what people have told you. I don't care about any of that. Believe in the word of God and enforce the word and when you praise and worship you from your deep within like you got the victory and and you live by what? Faith. Y'all ready to turn up? Come to the altar. We're going to really worship prophetically. Come to the altar. We're going to turn up and every single problem that's in our life and every stronghold, every demon, every whatever, I don't care what's happening, whatever the enemies lie to you about, whatever curse he says you have, whatever life he says that you're going to live, you're going to enforce the truth which is that you're more than a conqueror which is that you've been made righteous by the blood which is that you're holy and set apart which is that you're a priest and a king say I am royalty. Say I'm a child of God. Say I already won. Say I already won. Oh I got the victory. I will live by faith. I got the victory. Come on you too. You too. You too. Come on. I got the victory. I will live by faith. I got the victory. I will live by faith. I don't care about the money. I got the victory. I got the victory. I will live by faith. I got the victory. I got the victory. I got the victory. I will live by faith. I don't care about the money. I got the victory. I will live by faith. I got the victory. I will live by faith. I got the victory. I will live by faith.

We thank you that you've given us authority because it's a rescue mission, Father. This world is burning down. There's no saving the system. But you've given us authority to win our brothers and sisters to you before it's too late. We're like firefighters, Lord, rescuing people from a burning house.
And you've given us all the tools we need, Father. We love you so much, Jesus. Oh, I have authority. I keep hearing it. Hey, hey, hey. You made a fire on my altar, never. You made a fire on my altar.

We will, we will pretty soon, pretty soon. We will, we will pretty soon. Come on, let's just begin to give glory to the God right now.
Let's just begin to give Him praise. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Come on, real quick, for one minute. For one minute, praise Him. For one minute. One minute, praise Him. Praise Him. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. So, Father, right now, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for your tangible presence in your house. What a privilege it is to be in your house. Thank you, Lord, for your blood. Thank you for your sacrifice. Thank you for your love that you gave us through your Son. Father, we love you. We love you in this place. We exalt you. We honor you. We pray that you be seated high and lifted up. In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you, Jesus. I want y'all to stay right here. Stay right here. This is powerful. This is a powerful moment.
We're about to transition into the giving, but I want us to keep this same energy that we have right here. Who's excited to give unto the house of God? Yes. Yes. You see, I was ministering to SOR. That's a school. We have a school platform, and, you know, Rich and Carlene minister through schools called SOR, and I had an opportunity, a privilege, to minister to them, and I was telling them about giving because a lot of our giving comes from the Internet. Can y'all believe that? It comes from people that watch online that are not even here present, and I was ministering them about giving, and I was like, guys, we got to rally up, and we got to give unto the house of God because the Rock is going to have a house soon, our own house, a house where we can say—it's going to say the Remnant Revival Outreach Center outside. The Lord is going to bless this house with our own house. Hallelujah. So I was telling that about—I was telling them, and I was—and man, they were just so on fire. They were like, yes, amen. There was nothing in their hearts. They truly see the vision. They truly have their hearts attached to it, and if you're watching online, wherever that camera is, I want to—I want all of us to just give a round of applause to LSOR, SOR for their faithfulness. We love you. We thank you. Thank you for everything that you do for supporting what God is doing here at the Rock. As I was ministering to them, a woman, she raised her hand in the Zoom call, and she was like, I want to testify, and she began to testify.
She said she was in a bad financial place, and she hadn't been tithing. She hadn't been offering. She said she didn't have a local church. She just watched this online, so she didn't have nowhere to give her money. Her mom got in a bad situation. Her business wasn't working. She didn't have a car, all of these things. She said, but I flew out one day, and I came to the Rock, and then the giving message came, and I repented. I prayed, and I said, God, I'm sorry. I haven't been giving my tithes and offerings, and she sowed in here while she was here present. She said months later, the Lord came through and blessed her with a new car. He opened doors financially for her, and she got to testify. She testified and confirmed the word that I was giving about God's faithfulness when you give unto his house. I want to say this. A lot of us are financially bound because we don't give. The reason why you're in a financial situation is because you don't give. Everybody say, give. When you give unto God, he takes care of you. The reason why it's not working out when it's in your hands is because it's up to you now, but when you give it to him, it's up to him, and he takes care of his children, hallelujah. He takes care of his children, hallelujah. So before the assembly, I want to go ahead and give us a word tonight, man. It's First Chronicles chapter 29. This is a late David. He's older now. He's about to transition out of his kingship, and his son Solomon is about to take over, and he calls the assembly to come together because David was going to raise up a campaign to fund the temple, right?
And he says, he brings them all together like we are gathered here today, and he says that we're going to give unto the house of God to assemble the house of God, and then first, he said what he was going to give, and he said he was going to give silver and gold and precious pearls and talents upon talents, hundreds of talents, and when everybody saw the king's generosity towards the house of God, the leaders stood up, and when the leaders stood up, they said we're going to give unto the house of God too, and what that did is that it was a domino effect, and it stirred the people up, and they all wanted to give unto the house of God, and now I'm going to give you the verse. This is First Chronicles 29 verse 9. It says, then the people rejoiced for they had offered willingly. Because with a loyal heart they had offered willingly to the Lord and King David also rejoiced greatly. So the reason why I told you about LSOR, the reason why I told you, I mean SOR, the reason I told you about that woman's testimony, the reason I'm telling you that is to connect your hearts to what's happening here at the Rock. If you've been blessed by this ministry I want to you just say hallelujah real quick. If you've been blessed by this ministry online I want you to put fire emojis in the chat just to testify of what God is doing here in this house so your heart can be connected to what's happening here. So that way when you give you're not giving because the Bible says so you're giving willingly like the people gave willingly and then after they gave willingly the Bible says they rejoiced. So the same way we were just singing hey yeah yeah hey the same way that they were rejoicing because God is good we're gonna rejoice because we gave back to that good God hallelujah because we gave back to him amen. Who's ready to give on to the house of God? Come on, come on. Thank you Jesus. So let's pray. Father in the name of Jesus Lord we just thank you because you are faithful. We thank you because you are Jehovah Jireh. Father we thank you Lord God that this belongs in your hands father because it was yours originally. We're just giving it back to you father. Thank you Lord that you make all things abound in us Lord by your grace and your mercy Lord and I thank you for all that are giving here and we bless the online father all those who
are who are giving online father multiply their territory multiply what they have and expand their territory father thank you Lord we bless this offering here tonight in this gathering and your assembly and the and God's people said amen amen come on rejoice rejoice rejoice rejoice rejoice thank so now keep going keep going thank you Jesus freedom is easy in your presence deliverance is easy in your presence Oh healing is easy in your presence in your presence and freedom freedom is easy in your presence is easy in your presence Oh healing is easy in your presence in your presence freedom freedom is easy in your presence is easy in your presence and healing is easy in your presence in your presence oh you say come to me all who are tired and all who are weary oh you say come to me my okay is easy oh you say you say come to me Oh you say come to me so I'm coming and what seems big to me is easy for you you fight the battle while I stand you take the battle in your hands it's easy for you what seems big to me is easy for you you fight the battle while I stand you take the battle in your hands it's easy for you freedom freedom is easy in your presence deliverance is easy in your presence and healing is easy in your presence in your presence freedom Oh freedom is easy in your presence deliverance is easy in your presence and healing is easy in your presence in your presence in your presence in your presence it's easy for you it's easy for you

How's everybody feeling? Amen, amen. You all may be seated in the glory and the presence of God, hallelujah. Who's expecting a move of God tonight? We're expecting, yes. Okay, let's go ahead and get through these announcements. Welcome to the Remnant Revival Hourly Center. We are abbreviated with a ROC because Jesus is the ROC. Amen. So the times, we are here, service schedule every Sunday, doors open at 5pm. And yeah, we're here, we gather here today in the name of Jesus, hallelujah.

Okay, so who's ready for the school of revival? That's exactly what I was talking about earlier. If you desire to go deeper in discipleship, if you desire to learn more, to listen to our leaders, Pastor Richard and Pastor Carlene, man, they have courses about bitterness, about deliverance. You know, they do, you do Q&As. You know, the pastors every Thursday will go on and we'll intercede or we'll do a Bible study led by the Spirit and it just becomes more intimate. That's exactly what I was talking about, SOR. That's the school of revival, man, it's powerful. They are hungry out there. They love the Lord. They love what God is doing here and they're not even here. They're online and they're on fire, man. They blew me away last Thursday, praise God. UCF evangelism, every Wednesday at 11.30 a.m. to 3 p.m., we meet at Memorial Mall in UCF and man, God has been moving in UCF. Pastor Benji leads it and man, I remember when we first started going there, man, it was only a few of us, maybe a few encounters, but we made a covenant with God. God made a covenant with us that we would be faithful going to UCF and we've been showing up faithfully on Wednesdays to minister to the college students. So if you've never evangelized before and you want to learn, you want to get trained up, that is the perfect place to go. Pastor Benji is there. We witness, we go minister the love of Jesus to college students that honestly really need it and they're the future, amen? Okay, VBS 26, man, this is powerful. This is a three-day revival for children. Children, it's July 8th through the 10th from 6 to 8. It's here from ages 3 to 11 and man, we're sparking revival in the youth. Not only do we get to experience revival, but the future, the true remnant,
the ones that are going to actually take on the mantle of revival is going to be our children and we've got to make sure we're investing into the children, man. Look at them. Here at VBS, they're going to preach the gospel to them. They're going to have fun things to do. You know, we're going to pray for them. We're going to, you know, salvation calls, baptism, you name it and you're going to see God move in our youth, amen? Amen? Man, it's so beautiful. Revival Tours 2026. So for those that know, we have a semi-truck that opens up to a stage. We call it Big Bet and she's a moving altar and wherever she goes, revival goes and souls get saved. And man, so much time, money, prayer that we invested into her, but it was worth every penny because she, man, everywhere she goes, it's revival. So these are the dates for the upcoming revivals that we have outdoor. We have July 25th, Daytona Beach Revival. Man, mark those calendars. Get the day off. Get a plane ticket if you're not here, if you're online, and come see what God is doing here. July 1st, we're going to the back to school drive. September 12th, Oak Ridge High School Revival. And then September 29th, Craneswood Revival. Man, scan that QR code. Go ahead and sign up. Get your tickets beforehand and it's going to be powerful. Hallelujah. Spanish translation available. You know, if you don't speak English and you need translation, we have translation here.
Powerful translation team that are dedicated to making sure they they preach exactly what pastor Richard preaches just in Spanish. Amen Amen, okay, perfect. I believe that's the last one beautiful. All right now everybody help me welcome pastor Richard our senior pastor. Hallelujah All right, hallelujah Can we just give some praise and honor and glory to Jesus again Jesus You're here right now. We just love you Hallelujah And like pastor carlos said for everybody watching online, we love you for all the sor we love you Man, god is moving through the school of revival all around the world. We got people from literally all over the world like different countries All over man, and it's powerful what god is doing Um, and all that is actually going towards us being able to save up for our own center We will have our own center and it will be a facility where disciples are made That's the whole vision simple make disciples That's what we want to do is we want to make disciples. We want to wash the feet of the people Who are the dirtiest? When jesus washed the feet of the disciples It was a revelation of sanctification He told them that their body would always be clean, but their feet would need to always be washed That's a representation or a revelation of our positional salvation and also the progressive sanctification process that we go through We are fully sanctified in christ, but go through a process of sanctification that means We are positionally fully sanctified fully healed fully delivered fully saved seated in heavenly places But progressively here on earth we are going through a process By faith to live out what we've already received
That's what sanctification is and that's why a disciple being made is not just a one-time at the altar prayer That's a convert but jesus never said in the scriptures to make converts in matthew 28. He says to make disciples That's why we have discipleship on tuesdays for our church We have discipleship for the sor also on tuesdays We have friday evangelism. We have fellowships throughout the week Like 10 million baby showers that you can go to It's always a new baby shower birthdays every service right roc family, right? Isn't somebody getting a birthday cake after every service? And it's like five birthdays We're a family and we keep that close-knit Family type of culture that we had Since the beginning and we're not going to lose it in jesus name And when we have our own center, we're going to bring the community of orlando even more into the kingdom of god They're going to experience the kingdom through excellence through love Through the facilities that god's going to birth through this ministry. Amen So again for everyone that joins the sor that monthly Donation I look I look at it as because it's a free will decision It's sewn on to what we're doing here at the rock to advance the kingdom. Yes We're a fired up remnant and what people will say a young ministry But god takes care of his church And what's happening is the diversity of ages and ethnicities is starting to be evident Because it's not just young people anymore. Like when it started now, we have older people even younger people Our children's church has maxed out every service over 100 kids Hallelujah And this is considered a mega church right here And obviously we need something bigger, right?
And god's going to send disciples not just converts not just people who want performance but people who want to get dirty I want to go through people with the people I love it when I see the people who come in that give up the witchcraft and the drugs And we've had people coming out the strip club in orlando I think i'm playing i'm talking about some of our congregants right now used to strip in the strip clubs of orlando and now on fire evangelists I'm dead serious We have ex-muslims I remember adama came here he's one of our armor bearers slash Does everything just loves the lord type of guy? And he he serves in the church. He came to the church when we were in our last facility Came straight to the to talk to me. He said man. I'm a muslim with his act with his accent his african accent He says I want to tell you and I took him to the side I told I think I told pastor carlos just lead the prayer, bro Took him outside with one of our other brothers nick spoke to him I mean within one or two services had an encounter with the lord now He's more on fire. You would never even know that he was muslim and he's the first one in his family saved and all his family Muslim. Powerful, right? When I met Carlos, Carlos was on, was a drug addict and a drug dealer, was gangbanging, all that stuff, about to get on the verge of divorce from that woman that's sitting right next to him. I met her first and she got delivered at Cranes Roost where we're having that Big Beth revival in a few months. That's why it's special to us. Got delivered, she was getting such a powerful encounter with the Lord. Demons coming out that the park rangers had to come and kick us out because it got, it got crazy and they, and people were saying we were doing exorcisms. She gets saved and then guess what happens, tells her husband, he comes the next week or whenever, days, whatever it was, in front of the Barnes and Nobles at the Altamont Springs Mall, he's getting delivered and he didn't go, look it, by the grace of God, he didn't, and I'm not against rehab, but he didn't, but he just stood in faith and God delivered him, he didn't go to rehab, didn't sleep for a few days, just withdrawing and now he's a pastor at this church. You see, God is good, right, and there's so many more testimonies.
People in our church, you ask anyone in our church, everyone got a powerful testimony, for real. Everyone has a powerful testimony of what Jesus did and how they're delivered and freed for real. That's what I love about this ministry, is that there's people here that are actually saved. We were playing ball on Saturday, we had to open our first open run, we went to this church, one of the brothers in our church, Alex, he got us in there and powerful, divine connection and we're hooping and I was talking to Jesse and Jacob in our church and I said, I said, bro, look at this, and we see all like 40, 50 men and even women of God were there. I was like, you see all this? We're all on fire for Jesus and we don't look like the average Christian and we're actually saved. Like, there's no compromise in this ministry by the grace of God. We're actually on fire. Like, we're not faking it. Like, you come to our church and there's a whole bunch of fakeness and lukewarmness. No, like, it's not just me who lives this out and preaches this. It's the whole church. You come in, you talk to anybody that's been here. You talk to them. They'll tell you how much they love Jesus and they're not following Jesus because of me. They're not following Jesus because of my platform, my music, or anything. They're following Jesus because they've encountered him. So, I just say that. The Bible says to judge a tree by its fruit. We just read that today, right? You can judge a tree by its fruit. Do grapes gather from thorns? You ever seen a grape tree with a bunch of thorns? Doesn't make sense. So, judge a tree by its fruit and this church is a church of God, regardless if I'm here or not. You might have got drawn in by the videos. Probably saw a reel. Probably heard from a friend something. Praise God, you got drawn in. Amen. The Bible says no one comes to the Son lest the Father draws him in. Maybe you're already saved and you got drawn in and you want to see what's really going on here. I'm here to tell you, we're really Jesus lovers. You've probably already seen that. It's probably unorthodox to you the way we praise and we're up there spontaneously freestyling, like what is going on is probably different than hymns and things you might maybe are used to. Regardless if it's hymns or not, anything that honors the Lord from
or anyone that honors the Lord from their heart, you can tell. You know how you can tell? From their life. Everyone say, my life reflects Christ. We think it's just love. Love is the most important thing, but if you truly love Jesus, there's gonna be so much more fruit than just being loving to someone. It's gonna be the whole Bible coming alive in your life. The whole Bible is a revelation of love, but it's so, there's so many seeds. Everyone say seeds. The whole Bible is a book of seeds that we get to plant and those seeds get planted in our heart and the hearts of others and the Spirit of God waters those seeds to bear fruit, but whenever it's a demonic seed and it gets watered by the faith of the person, you'll also see bad fruit, compromise, lukewarmness, fornication, like the Bible says, sexual immorality, drunkenness, covenants. There's a whole list of demonic seed also in the Scriptures so you can know what's the fruit of Jesus and the fruit of Satan. Addictions, witchcraft, idolatry, sorceries. I mean the Bible talks about it. Drunkards will not inherit the kingdom of heaven. It's not God saying these people just have to sin less to inherit the kingdom of heaven. No, it's saying that this is the fruit of people who don't know Jesus. You caught that? Because some people will try to read the Scriptures and go, I'm gonna do this less and then I'll make it to heaven. No. This is what happens when you don't truly believe. Drunkenness? Because doesn't the Bible say... You're saved by grace through faith alone. I Believe that and if you really have faith in the gospel You will bear the fruit of the Spirit the whole Word of God everything the Word says that's what you gonna bear But if it's not the right seed There's a whole list that Paul mentions of what fruit you'll bear. It's not crazy That people try to look at the scriptures and sin less instead of meet the sinless one The one who never sinned The one who seats it who sits on the throne Joe Jesus is alive Right. I want you to listen like when I say Jesus is alive It's not just a figure of imagination or something fictitious
Jesus is literally alive in a glorified body. Isn't that crazy? Listen, I said this before I saw a real recently It's like last week of me preaching that and I was like, oh, I'm gonna say it again Jesus is literally alive in a glorified body. So listen when Jesus rose from the dead, right? He rose in his body Just look at my look at me and just imagine Jesus Christ rising back up in his body with the holes in his wrists and feet But now it's glorified. There's no more death He died once and he rose Now he's alive in his glorified body seated in Equal authority dominion or essence power everything at the right hand of the father He could pull up whenever he wants in his glorified body The Spirit of God bears witness to us that we are children of God that Jesus Christ is Lord all these things we get to Experience God through the presence and power of the Holy Spirit But best believe the second person of the Godhead Jesus Christ Equal to the Father and the Spirit can show up here in his glorified body if he wanted to Just remember that Not a vision not a trance I'm talking about real deal with your eyes And imagine what would happen if he did that I think it's mercy and grace that he doesn't because not too many people would live Imagine that glory he carries. Do you know what it means to be holy and the green? What does it mean to be holy? It's set apart See I up there like I think it's only him and the other guy wearing green they're set apart So when we say that Jesus is set apart, do you know what that means? He's more than you could even think so think about the think about the most glorious or the most amazing superhero Name a superhero that you love just be real. Some of y'all love superheroes too much name one Captain America Superman Wonder Woman, whatever, okay We didn't remember when you would watch these movies and stuff like that and you would see these superheroes You'd be in awe and you'd be like, whoa Jesus is even more than that To the point where his presence can do can drop 10,000 people in one second Imagine someone in a glorified on a body that walks into this room and everyone drops
quickly Not like every knee shall bow like okay, I'll bow No, you have to bow because the power that radiates from him is so strong Your body can't contain it To where you were no choice, no, no option you will drown And you will have to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord the highest power That's why everybody's gonna confess that Jesus Christ is right We said every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that do we think that people are gonna be like Alright, bro. I guess you were Lord All right, you're Lord bro, sir No, they're gonna be in such fear reverence and Such there's gonna be such power that they're gonna be Jesus is Lord Every demon Every person every Muslim every Buddhist every Hindu every atheist Every agnostic every lukewarm every Christian every angel every Nephilim every what I don't care what it is Even the trees and rocks bow down and know that Jesus Christ is Lord. Do you understand what type of power that takes? Do you get it you don't I don't either and I'm gonna keep growing in this Because it's a never-ending revelation Even right now the revelation you might have it's not even close to the full revelation of his glory Isn't that crazy? Right now the revelation that you have of Jesus Christ and how glorious he is is maybe less than a half a percent of what? It is for real for real So what does that mean? We need to seek Him. Because we want more of that revealed, don't you? If He's the purpose of life, knowing Him, I ask that today. John 17 3, John 17 3, this is eternal life, that you should know Him, right? If the whole purpose to life is to know Him, which when you know Him, you'll naturally reveal Him, you'll want to talk about Him, all those things. But number one, it's to
know Him. That means to experience Him. Why are we so focused on the other things? Why do we control? Why do we try to control so much when He says, focus on Him, His kingdom, and His righteousness, and He'll take care of you, right? It's because we don't trust Him. Maybe you've had a glimpse of His glory one time in His service, and you had goosebumps or an encounter or deliverance, and it was powerful, and that lasted you maybe two or three months of on fire-ness, and then all of a sudden, because you didn't have another encounter, now it's like you're not as on fire. Come on, how many people have been through that? Let's be real. This is why the Bible says it's daily bread. You're supposed to have daily encounter. Daily encounter, it's a cultivation that leads to more and more experience. It's not a one-time thing or once every three months or only when you feel really bad and you're going through something, let me go and worship Jesus and have an encounter, and like it's a fix. No, it's the purpose to life, and when you, I'm telling you, listen, because we all need this. Even me, I need more of this. I want more revelation of this. I want to be like the patriarchs. I want to be like Hebrews 11. All those men and women of God that were listed to have faith, I want to be radical, like sold out, like the revivalists of old, from the past revivals, who were so gone in love with Jesus, they couldn't stop preaching about Him. They couldn't stop praying and fasting, and not even in a religious way, but in a desperate way for Him. You know what He's looking for now, in this third great awakening? He's looking for people like that, and there's not too many. He searches to and fro, looking for people that have that type of faith to pour out a spirit, to use as an altar, first a child, but also an altar to reveal His glory through. The presence in the power of the Holy Spirit, it comes with a certain authority. Does everyone have the same authority? No. Why do some people have the ability to cast out a devil and others don't? You know how many times I've been asked that? I want to learn how to cast out demons like you. Amen. Get in the Scripture, start fasting and praying and asking God. We all have the same identity, but not everyone carries the same authority. Authority
comes through intimacy and experience with God. It comes through faith, and the Bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. So the Ramah Word of God, the spoken Word of God, that's what increases our faith. So does everybody experience God's voice the same way? So there's different levels of faith and different levels of authority. There's some people who can walk in a room and as soon as they walk in a room and start praying, people that get to experience the Holy Spirit in a big way. And there's other people who can yell on a microphone and nobody in their church gets changed or transformed. And they know the Bible front and back, they've memorized the Scriptures, they know the Scriptures like the back of their hand, but then when they get into a church and start preaching, nobody's convicted, nobody's repenting, nobody's growing, nobody's encouraged, nobody wants Jesus. It becomes a religious institution almost like a business model. I study these Scriptures, I go preach it, people sow, we can build, but there's no Jesus. There's so many buildings that are more like businesses than churches. No disciples, no transformation, sin running rampant because there's no love of Jesus. Again, it's not a sin problem, it's a love problem. When we fall so deeply in love with Jesus because we've experienced Him so much, think about it. Why do you love your mother and your father? Why do you love your brother and your sister? Why do you love your relatives? Because they were with me since the beginning, right? And you have all these great moments in history with them, right? All the times with your cousins you had sleepovers, or with your brother and sister playing video games late at night, or just hanging out, talking. Didn't your brother and sister go with you through some of the hardest times? You have history and experience with them, so you love them more than other people. When we have so much history and experience with Jesus, begins to happen is our love for him begins to increase. And then sin becomes more and more annoying. You begin to hate it. You begin to hate it so much that even the littlest things bother you.
Why? Because you know it hurts his heart. Yes, as he died on the cross for your sins, amen, the blood of Jesus wipes you clean and we fight from a place of victory. But when you know, even though I'm forgiven, I know that this sin I just committed it breaks God's heart, even though he died for it. I'm repenting and I'm confessing not to be forgiven again, but because I'm in love with Jesus. It's like my wife. I love my wife so much. We're married. When I make a mistake, do I come and say I'm sorry to her because I don't want her to divorce me? Let's say, for example, we're talking. She says, hey, don't forget to take out the trash. And I forget. Did I make a mistake? I did. But I don't go running to her. Hey, please forgive me. I didn't take out the trash and don't divorce me, please. At that point, my wife's gonna say, what's wrong with you? You need help. I need to pray for you. For some of you, God is saying, what are you doing? You're still confessing and repenting to God like you get saved every day. It needs to be confession and repentance
from a place of intimacy and experience, knowing that you've already been wiped clean by what Jesus Christ did on the cross for you, by the blood he shed. But now, your confession and repentance is from a place of intimacy and love for Jesus. Because you're married. Everyone say, I'm married to Christ. Right? So it's more of a godly sorrow because you know, like someone you love, right? You did something that you shouldn't have done. Everyone say, I'm not perfect. But I'm not a sinner. Say, I'm not sinless. But I'm not a sinner. Someone who's sinless never sins. And the Bible says, if you think you're without sin, you're deceived. Do we all fall short? Yes. But the Bible says that we're no longer sinners. The scriptures are very clear. We're made righteous. What's a sinner? Is it someone who makes a mistake? No, it's someone who practices sin so much that their heart is hardened and they can't do it anymore. Everyone say, practice.
It's someone who makes a practice of sin like it's basketball or soccer. I always give this analogy. If I go to the basketball court right now and I play with my friend, Pastor Benji, and I come once a year on holidays for Christmas when I come back in town, one time a year I play basketball with him. Am I a hooper? No, I'm not a hooper, E-R. Hoop, E-R? But if Benji plays every single day, is he a hooper? Yes. So someone who's a sinner is someone who's practicing that sin all the time and they don't care. But someone who falls short and misses the mark and recognizes they missed the mark and has a relationship with God and wants to grow in intimacy with God so that they begin to sin less, not sinless, but they begin to, do they wanna sin less? That's a righteous son or daughter of the King. But someone who doesn't care, who practices sin like it's all good, and then even justifies it and says, I can do me, the Bible says that we all sin, right, brother? You ever met somebody like that? The Bible says we all sin, we all fall short,
so I'm gonna keep smoking this blunt. The Bible says we all sin, we all fall short. I don't gotta cut off this girl. I can keep doing me whatever I want. I can keep doing you whatever I want. I can tell you that person is dealing with a love issue. They don't love God. As the scriptures say, if you love me, you'll follow me. You'll follow my commands. So you know who loves Jesus by who they follow, right? Everyone say the tree. Say, I'm a tree. Remember that blind man when Jesus prayed for him? The first time his eyes were open, it was open to the spirit realm. And what did he see? He saw men like trees. And then Jesus had to pray again, and then he saw in the physical. Why did God show him that? People like trees. You ever look at a tree? All the different types of trees, right? You got oak trees and palm trees and all types of sizes and shapes, just like humans. Sometimes I look at humans and see all the different hairstyles, colors, heights, shapes, all different types of stuff. It's like trees. And through us, we bear fruit.
Isn't that beautiful? I can't wait to get to heaven. Hallelujah. I feel like when I get to heaven and I'm teaching in heaven or preaching in heaven, whatever God wants me to do, it's gonna be like, yeah. It's like so one accord. Like everyone's gonna be like lit. Everyone's gonna be so like engaged. I don't have to preach the gospel anymore. No more salvation. No more altar calls. No more baptisms. No more prophecies. No more casting out devils. No more miracles to prove that Jesus Christ is actually Lord. No more spectators coming in to see if it's real and then me having to go and do it for the glory of God and then people, some believe and then some still don't believe. Everyone in heaven is gonna be just like me. Believers. I can't wait, boy. I can't wait. If you're a believer, say amen. There we go. Now it sounds like heaven. Alright, so before we open up the word, I want to settle this in your spirit. Everyone say the war is over. Okay. Your side already won and the building is on fire. So look at this. I want you to hold all three of those at the same time because the whole Christian life lives in the tension between them. I said this earlier. You're not walking into a fight today. You're walking out of a finished one. The cross already happened. The grave is already empty. Everyone say the tomb is empty and the verdict is already in. Stamp paid in full and heaven has already declared over your name that you are more than a conqueror. So whatever you're facing this week, you are not fighting for the victory. There is no victory left to win. You are fighting from victory 2,000 years old. But the real question rises up and it takes discernment to answer it. If the war is already done, then what on earth are we still fighting? Look around. When you go outside and you look around, don't you see demonic spirits running rampant? People still bound? The word is clear that the whole world system is condemned and headed for the fire. So am I out here enforcing a victory over a kingdom that's getting demolished anyway? Am I defending a house that's already scheduled for destruction? Look, here's the revelation that unlocks the entire teaching. You are not a soldier sent to save a building. You are a firefighter sent to empty it before it
burns. So you're not a soldier trying to save a building. It's earth. The system. It's already done. Everyone say it's cooked. People say I want to save the world and change the world. Sorry. There's nothing you can do about it. The world is gonna end with fire. Because of sin, no going back. Just like we have to die, the world has to die. And just like we rise a new creation and live for eternity, there's gonna be a new earth created. And new heavens. And new Jerusalem. Where we're gonna live forever and there's gonna be no more death or destruction. So on this earth now, are we out here trying to save the world and change everything? We have to know as Christians that our goal and our job is not to make this society perfect. It's to bring Jesus to the lost so that they can be rescued. Because every human is gonna die. We all have to die. But where we go next is eternity. I'm always hearing about funerals, especially now as a pastor. I'm always hearing about loved ones passing away. And the first question I always ask is, did they believe in Jesus? Some of you in this room might have loved ones that did not believe in Jesus and they passed away. And that's unfortunate. Some of you might have loved ones that did believe in Jesus Christ and they passed away. You know, God bless you. That's amazing. This is why it's so important that we preach the gospel. This is why it's so important that we reach the laws. This is why it's so important that we live our life set apart and holy to be examples to the unbelievers who are in that building that's burning down and don't know what to do. your co-workers and your friends still think that they have this great shot in life at being successful and meeting this mark that will give them all the satisfaction and fulfillment if only they had the money or they'll say that if only I had a better job if only I had a better relationship if only I had a better marriage if only this if only that and then when they get these things there's always a new if only it's because nothing can satisfy you on this planet that's offered to us by the world system who runs this world system Satan the only thing that will ever fulfill you is the gospel message when you believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ you get filled with the Holy Spirit the
blinders take get taken off and you feel that fulfillment you feel in that moment the satisfaction of what Jesus Christ did for you feel in that moment like you finally found the purpose to life how many people when you got saved you felt that you know you know people say I had like an epiphany moment and like how many people actually felt like the blinders got tooken off and everything in life look different right I remember when I got saved everything looked different everything sounded different smelled different I felt like I was finally alive I felt like I entered into a new realm I felt so free and so liberated and so just like just in awe of what I just experienced that it lit me it lit me it lit me up with a fire that still hasn't gone out and the fire is only increased because I continue by the grace of God to experience Jesus Christ before a platform before four children before a ministry family I'll never forget my first love when Jesus met me in that apartment when I was all alone with my wife or my girl at the time not saved my whole family not saved my friends not saved I was the first one that God decided the one that nobody expected the black sheep the one that was the worst of the worst that's what God loves to do he came and he rescued me revealed himself to me showed me his love who he is in that moment where his atmosphere the presence of God entered my room and saturated my whole being and knocked me to the ground and delivered me from demons and filled me with love and gave my heart a real perspective it turned from stone to flesh I began to see out of my eyes and my spiritual eyes different I began to know things that I couldn't have known before had such an experience with what I had been looking for my entire life and didn't even know it it wasn't like I was like I gotta go find Jesus I wasn't even looking for Jesus I wasn't trying to disprove Jesus I did not think that Jesus Christ was Lord I didn't think he was God I didn't think he was the way I didn't think he was the truth of the life as a matter of fact he was in the backburner because of what I had experienced in the Catholic Church the religion the hypocrisy and it's not just a Catholic Church there's so many so many denominations with that but when Jesus Christ revealed himself
to me in that apartment when I had that encounter with the Lord my entire life shifted as a matter of fact I died as a matter of fact my life didn't get better it literally became new and I don't just say that because the Bible says it I experienced it because everything that I used to love became undesirable it didn't make sense to people around me it didn't make sense to my girl at the time it didn't make sense to to my friends and family members how can this guy go from doing everything he was doing so deep and now not want to do any of it and then unaffected and nonchalant about it as if it didn't even matter it didn't take me a process I'm gonna tell you something it didn't take me a process to want to give certain things up is there sometimes a process there is there always is it's a sanctification process but there were certain things that I just buried at the all I put at the feet of Jesus and walked away I just realized all these things have been keeping me bound you know what really lit me on fire Joe realizing that all these things had me bound to the devil bro It pissed me off, it actually made me mad because I was like, wait, all these things that I low-key knew in my heart, like deep down somewhere, that they were wrong, I shouldn't be doing it, but kept doing it. All the things that were killing me was really a chain to the devil who wanted to kill me. And immediately I had this passion, this anger towards the demonic kingdom, thinking, man, all the things that I thought were true, all the money I've invested into, all the things I've built, all the people that I convinced was me working for the devil, bro, it pissed me off. It gave me such a righteous anger to want to preach the gospel before I even knew what the word evangelism was, before I even knew that that was a thing that Christians do in a church. It was just me having this passion to let people know about what I was bound to and what I came out of and that they could also come out of it too. It was this desire in my heart that God put on me, he did by his grace, to let people know this world is going to burn, it's going to end. We can't save the world, but we can save souls from hell, bro.
You know what's so, Benji, I think it's hard for a lot of Christians, especially in America, to talk about hell. And I get it, I have understanding. We hear hell and we get, ooh, hell, I don't want to talk about it, that's not love. It's actually love to let people know that hell is real, right, just think about it. Is hell real? Why are we so scared to talk about it? Jesus talked about it all throughout the Gospels, not a little bit, a lot. Yeah, do we have people who go, hell, hell, hell, too much, yeah, I get it, but bro, hell is a real place and I don't want anybody going to hell. My friends and family members, I didn't want them going to hell, so I let them know hell was real and prayed for them and now they're getting saved left and right. It's not from a place of you're going to hell, it's from a place of I want you not to go there, I don't want you to go there. Are there people who send people to hell and they say, you're going to go to hell, yeah, I guess there's people like that. But in America, bro, we've gotten so soft, so deceived by the enemy. Don't talk about hell, that's not loving. It is love to let people know that heaven is real and hell is real and we want you rescued out of that burning house. The lake of fire is real, bro, sis. It's a real place, it's not a fictitious thing. We're not going to get to heaven and be like, you know what, hell was just something that was used to bring people here, but it was never real. It's just as real as heaven is. And hell is not something that, it's not a cartoon, it's not a devil with a pitchfork. It's a real place, there's real fire and brimstone, there's real people, there's gnashing of teeth and wailing, there's real, it's real. And Jesus experienced it on the cross when he said, God, Father, Father, why have you forsaken me?
Because he felt the separation that hell brings. When the sin of the world entered him fully, he got to experience what separation feels like. And that's the worst thing that they're experiencing in hell. Even right now, a Muslim or a Buddhist or an atheist can experience God through the love they have for their children, through the love they have for their friends and family, because God is love. But once you get to hell, there's no more love. You ever been in a moment where you feel extremely depressed? How many of y'all have ever felt that? How many people here have felt suicidal, those atmospheres, right? You ever felt, I felt that. I remember when I was 21, it was the first time I felt suicide, and I didn't even understand why. I felt it, and I actually was like thinking about suicide, because I felt, you feel it right here, right? It's extreme, and it feels like you can't get rid of it, right? You try to go work it out, not going away. You try to drink it away, not going away. You try to do all these things to try to get rid of the feeling, and it gets worse and worse. You ever felt that? Imagine that times a million. That's what they're feeling in hell. They're not screaming just because it's hot. They're screaming because they feel the fullness of separation from God. So I don't want anyone to feel that. I don't care what they've done in the past. I don't care if they're a Muslim or Buddhist. I don't care if they're whatever.
I don't care what, if they're a rapist, I don't care. I don't want anyone to experience that torment, because there's no return. There's no repenting. There's no purgatory. We can't pray for anybody to make it to heaven, because people will think, well, there's purgatory. There's no purgatory. Purgatory is false doctrine. There's no purgatory. You can't live however you want, die, and then hope your mama and your dad pray for you to make it to heaven. No. I don't care if they pray 150 times. It doesn't matter. If you didn't put your faith in Jesus Christ, and again, if you have faith, your fruit will show, right? If you didn't put your faith in Jesus Christ, that's it. You're saved by grace through faith. It's true. And if you didn't truly put your, and people will say, stop judging people's faith, brother. No, the Bible says it. We judge a tree by its fruit. And the Bible, we just read it, right? Many false prophets have gone out. They talk about the narrow way and the broad way and false prophets and real ones, and it says, judge a tree by its fruit. That's how you'll know. So how do we know someone is true? Forget the prophet thing. How do we know a Christian's true? The fruit that they bear will line up with the Word. That's it. If it's real seed from the Word, there's gonna be real fruit produced. It's a very simple thing that people make complicated because they want to justify their sin. And let me tell you, my brother and sister, I will preach this gospel, the true gospel, to the day I die, no matter what Pharisees, Sadducees, religious, rebellious, you know why? Not because I hate people, because I love people. Because I have the honor to preach this gospel. I have a revelation of this gospel by God's grace, and I'm not gonna bury that revelation because people don't like it. I'll preach it no matter who receives it or not. I hope people receive it. I know some people hate me. Oh, he preaches a works-based salvation, even though I just said by grace through faith. No, but you don't get it because you still said, no, we shouldn't even focus on sin at all. Don't talk about sin at all. It's just by grace through faith. Stop it. Stop talking about sin. Who do you think's saying that? Stop talking
about sin. Stop. Don't preach repentance. Who do you think's talking like that? I'm demons, bro. Stop preaching repentance. Stop telling people they need to walk holy. Stop preaching about Jesus Christ as Lord. They've created this whole ... that's Lordship salvation. That's a repentance Pharisee. You know what they're telling me? They don't know him. I ain't even mad at them. It's scary. They literally don't know him. The Spirit of God has not even revealed this to them because they don't have the Holy Spirit. I've never met a spirit-filled Christian who's tripping about repentance. I've never met a spirit-filled Christian who doesn't talk about how they hate sin. Bro, this is real. This is the Bible. This is what Jesus preached. Didn't he preach repent? The kingdom of God is at hand. You know what he meant when he said the kingdom of God is at hand? He was saying I'm here now. I'm here now. The kingdom of God through Jesus is now here at hand. Everything that was prophesied under the old covenant is now here. Everything your prophet spoke about is now here. And guess what? Now he's resurrected and ascended. So now we preach not just the kingdom of God is at hand, but he's died on that cross, was buried, resurrected, ascended. It's deeper. We preach the full gospel of Jesus Christ. Jesus didn't preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. He preached the kingdom of God is now at hand and then he completed the gospel message. So now we preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. I see some people, sometimes people be like, the kingdom of God is at hand. I get it, but they don't understand. We're preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ now. Does this make sense? Because we're rescuing the lost. Everyone say, I'm victorious. Say, I already won. Look at this. A Christian never fights for victory. A Christian only ever fights from the victory that's already been won. Romans 8 37. Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors. Through who? Through Jesus him who loved us. Jesus loved us so much he completed the works on the cross. We love you Jesus. And because of that we are more than conquerors. Why are we more than conquerors? Paul could have said we are. or conquerors, but that wouldn't have been enough.
We win, we overcome, we come out on top, but Paul wasn't satisfied with just winning. He reached for a word in the Greek that's so big. Look at this. The word for conquer slapped the prefix for above in front of it in the Greek, and it actually invented a brand new word when he wrote it. Hyper-conquerors, what's the difference between a conqueror and more than a conqueror? A conqueror wins the war and limps home with scars. More than a conqueror, look at this, wins a war he never had to fight, walks away with spoils he never earned. The boxer who wins the belt is a conqueror, but the man who inherits the championship without even throwing a punch because someone else fought in his name, that man is more than a conqueror. Amen, and that's you. Christ stepped in the ring and you wear the belt. And catch how Paul ends it. Through him who loved us. Your victory was never powered by your strength, your discipline, your hustle, or even your willpower. It is powered by his love. The same love that took him to the cross is the engine of every victory you'll ever walk in. I said this today, I said lust. Lust comes from the outside in and kills you. People in the world say, well, I love this girl,
I love this guy, but then two months later, they love somebody else, why? Because it was never love, it was lust. It was a fleshy feeling that felt real good and so it didn't feel good anymore. And lust is all about self, what can I get from this? Look how fine or amazing they are, I want that from me. That's lust. But love is giving from the inside out for the person with nothing in return. When, look at this, when God fills you with his love, that's what you start doing and it becomes natural. It doesn't become hard. It's not like you're like, oh, I really don't wanna do this but I'm just gonna do it, that's not love. That's forcing yourself. When you've been filled, everyone say supernatural. For somebody in here, I'm gonna explain something. His love is not something you can make up from just quoting a scripture. It is a supernatural power that fills you. Everyone say cup. Just imagine this is a, I don't know, a bottle. This hand said, oh, he got a bottle right there, that's perfect. So just think about this bottle. If it was empty, it would have to get filled with water to be filled with water, right? I'm just trying to give you an analogy. Your body is a vessel and you literally cannot be filled
with his love unless you're actually filled with his love. That's why Jesus said, I'll give you water that you can drink from that you'll never thirst again. He was trying to tell the woman at the well, I got something better for you than all the prostitution you've been doing with these men. What do you think she was doing? Lusting. She was looking for love and Jesus said, I got you. This well gives you water, but I got that real love, that water that you can get filled with. You'll never desire another thing again. You'll never desire another man because none of those men were your husband anyways. Why do you say that? Because he didn't see any of them in covenant. God was speaking to her. You think all these men were your husband, you're condemned, you're lustful, looking for whatever you're looking for. These ain't your husbands. He was trying to tell her, I'm your husband. Isn't that crazy? He was telling her, I'm your husband. And I got that real love where you'll never wanna watch porn again for somebody in here. Where you'll never wanna vape again. Listen to me, where you'll never wanna smoke another blunt. Where you'll stop the gossip.
Where you'll actually love your wife and your husband. It can't be conjured up by your discipline. I'm saying this for y'all because you're looking for something, right? What you're looking for is love. How many of y'all have been praying for breakthrough? Get filled with his love, my brother, my sister. Yes, is deliverance real? It is. But if I cast out a demon and you don't get filled, it means nothing. The Lord told me this week, I was pouring up in this cup, a bunch of water from my water dispenser. He said, you see how this water cup is getting filled? He said, that's how you get filled with the spirit. But he said, everybody walking on this planet is filled with something. Whether it's the Holy Spirit or another spirit, but every vessel is filled with something. You just can't walk around and be like, I don't want the Holy Spirit, I don't want a demonic spirit, just leave me alone, let me live my life. Everybody's filled with a spirit. And we're called to be filled with the? When the Holy Spirit fills you, His love fills you. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of love, the spirit of faith, the spirit of adoption. Think about it. What does it mean when the scriptures say the spirit of adoption? It's the spirit that brings revelation to you that you are a child of God. The spirit lets you know, hey, everyone say revelation, that you are a child of God, that you are loved, that you are more than a conqueror, that you are victorious, that you're royalty.
You cannot even believe these things deep within your heart unless you have the Holy Spirit. Isn't that crazy? That the word of God becomes alive and bears good fruit when the seed is watered by the spirit. The seed in the scriptures must be watered by the Holy Spirit to produce real fruit. So is it just the scriptures? It's the scriptures and the Holy Ghost. So can you have a charismatic Christian who's all about Holy Ghost, Holy Ghost, but doesn't know the scriptures? What ends up happening? Rebellion. Church of Corinth. Then can you have a Christian, bunch of scriptures, scriptures, scriptures, but no feeling of the spirit? Yes. What does that lead to? Religion. Like the Pharisees and Sadducees. We need to be like the Church of Philippi, the Church of Philadelphia, that gets in the scriptures but also gets filled with the spirit daily. The bread and the water, to hunger and to thirst. I want to eat and drink. The bread and the body and the blood. Just think about it. We need the scriptures and the Holy Ghost, and that's what produces good fruit. So right now, my brothers and my sisters, you might be feeling like you're not victorious. You might have been saying everything I said up there. Be real. How many people were saying everything I was saying but you didn't experience it?
Be real. Raise your hand if that's you. That's real, my brother. Stand up. Come here, if you didn't experience it. You two in the blue, come here, I saw you with your hand up, man, come on. Who else? We are praising. Come up here. We are praising. We are worshiping. You are decreeing and declaring everything I was saying out loud. But you weren't experiencing it. It felt like it was dead. Have you been saved and given your life to Jesus? You and you, okay. Come on up, man. Come on. I'm going to help you guys. This is going to change your entire walk in Christ, okay, listen, if right now, man, come up. Come on up, man. No one's judging you. The Holy Spirit taught me this early in my walk, it's going to change you if you, I can tell you all are locked in. You didn't come up here for no reason, right? Amen. God's not mad at you. Just get that through your, God's not mad at you. He's not disappointed in you.
He's a father who loves you just the way I love my children and I want them to win. He wants you to win, right? Okay, now watch this. When I first got saved, my brothers and my sisters, God gave me this analogy. He said, son, I'll tell you what, I was praying for somebody in this church right now who's actually saved now. And they were claiming that they believe in God and all these things, but they didn't really have faith. And God gave me this analogy in prayer. I was weeping for this person. And God said, son, if right now you were in a house with them and the house was on fire with this person and you said, bro, we got to get out or you're going to die. And you ran out the house and the person stayed. What does that mean? I said, they didn't believe what I said. They didn't believe it. He said, exactly. He said, the reason people look Christian or act Christian, but they don't have fruit and all that is because of a lack of faith. It's not because the word is not powerful and it's not because the Holy Spirit is not all powerful. either, because the word, look at this, the word becomes alive by the Holy Spirit, right? So what's your job? One word, faith. Now, could you have a bunch of religious trauma, bitterness, unforgiveness, issues in life happening that can try to block your faith? Of course, the devil, if he can do things to you to block your faith, oh, he wants to do it.
That's his goal, is to make this life so crazy to you that you just can't believe anything. He wants to make you think that God is this terrible person that awaits you, who wants no breakthrough for you. He wants, if he can make you think that what he's doing is God doing it, he'll do that, because then you'll put your faith in him. So I want you to break out of it right now and believe that God loves you as his daughter, as his son, right, as his children. He's not mad at you. Have you fallen short? He's not tripping. The prodigal son, when he came home, do you know what the prodigal father did? Ran to him and kissed him. Not just that, didn't prepare to party. That's a revelation of the father when we come home. Oh, but I've sinned so much, you don't get it. He doesn't care. You're laughing, you're like, yo, that's crazy. You're getting freed. He doesn't care, bro. He's in love with you. Oh, but you don't get it, bro. Out of the things I've done for so many years, and I've been to so many altar calls, and I just, he doesn't care. He doesn't care. He wants you so much
that you stop breathing your lungs. Because if you were dead and you didn't have Christ, I'm not saying you don't have Christ, I don't know. Only God knows the heart. That's when it's done, bro. You know, hell wasn't even created for us. It was created for the fallen angels. So if God never wanted his son and daughters to go down there, and not only does he want you to be saved, but he wants you to experience his love, everything the devil's done to make you think that God is this terrible person, I want you to just get rid of it right now. Like, in your heart, it's called releasing it. I want you to see, I'm gonna give you the perfect analogy. My sons, I have two sons, this week, I looked at my sons, I was like, I just want them to win. Do you ever have somebody, do you have somebody that's younger than you that you love? Somebody, anybody, it could be your children, whoever it is, don't you just want them to win? Who is it for you? Your wife or your brother, okay, perfect. How bad do you want them to win? You'll do anything, you'll die for it. You'll pay for it, you'll do whatever you gotta do. I want them to win, right? Isn't it a deep desire within your heart? What if I told you God sees you the same way? He just wants you to win.
The Bible says it, I want you to prosper, I don't have plans for you to be harmed. I have plans for you to prosper, not to harm you, right? But the devil, you see how you're crying, bro? You're literally getting delivered. That's the Holy Spirit. That's the word of God becoming alive. You see, this makes sense. No matter what you've done, does he know your deepest and darkest secrets? And he still loves you. He doesn't love you less. He loves you more than ever. Think about this, God loved you before you even knew him. So that means before you were even a thing on this earth, he already loved you. Think about that, God already loved you and he is love, so he can't love less or more. So the thing about the person who loves you the most, did you ever have a person in your life that you know that just loves you? That you've done wrong or maybe you've messed up so much and they keep on loving you? Who is that for you? Your wife. God loves you more than that. So can you lose? Say, I can't lose. You see, that's the word, the seed, entering your heart and being watered by the Spirit.
You see how you're smiling, crying, you're like, oh, she's catching revelation in her mind right now, it's rewiring. He's over here smiling, like, this is how it works. The truth becomes alive by faith. All you have to do is believe in the Holy Ghost and you win. Does the devil want you to win? you to lose. He hates you. You know why? Not because you're this amazing person but because of who lives inside of you. Bro, he was embarrassed by Jesus, dragged through the city and made a public spectacle. You don't think if he can hurt God's heart by making you deceived by lies, you don't think he'll do it? He will do it and he will not stop doing it. But you have a choice to believe it or not. If Satan is under your feet because of what Jesus Christ did, not because, what's your name? Not because of what Cain did. You didn't do anything to make Satan under your feet. There's nothing you can do. You received a belt for a boxing match you didn't even box in. Do you even deserve it? Me neither, bro. That's what's so reckless about it. Jesus comes down, wins the battle and says, son here's the belt. Now go walk it out and enforce my victory on the enemy and save my children out of that fire. That's Cain's job. But the devil can make you focus on the wrong things and keep you in a wilderness season that God never ordained. Because Jesus was 40 days but then he got out. Some people be in wilderness seasons for 40, 40 years like the Israelites. And God never ordained that. Does that make sense? So I want you to break all of you at this altar. I want you to put your hands up in victory, all of you right now. Everyone stand up. Even if you're watching online. We're gonna, we're gonna make a public embarrassment of the devil and bring glory to the Father right now, okay? This is what I can feel, I can feel it. I can hear, I can hear in the spirit. Demons literally screaming, bro. This is what makes the devil really, really, really mad. I want you to just put your hands up in victory and say, Jesus, you're in love with me to the maximum amount. There's nothing that can separate me from your
love. No principality, no demon, no person, no mistake, no sin. You love me like the prodigal father. I am more than a conqueror. Say it again. I am more than a conqueror. Say I've been given the victory by grace through my faith. And say I believe, I believe that Jesus Christ loves me because of what he did on the cross for me. The perfect demonstration of victory given to me. I am righteous by the blood of Jesus. Say I am forgiven by the blood of Jesus. I am washed clean, I am washed clean. I forgive every person who's hurt me. I let them go. I release it, Jesus. I pray you save them, deliver them. Say the devil is under my feet. Prophetically begin to stomp out the enemy, prophetically. Say you can't have my bloodline. You can't have my family. You can't have my friends. You won't have Orlando. Say Orlando will be saved. Say America will be saved. Say the world will be destroyed, but the souls will be saved. Say Jesus Christ is king. Say I got the victory because I live by faith. Say I got the victory. I'm gonna live by faith. You see that freedom? That's freedom. That's how you break these demons. What'd you just experience throughout that? Just, just like lifting off of oppression. You see? What's your name? Jaquan. He said the lifting off of a presence, oppression, a demonic oppression. And you didn't even get, no, did anyone, don't pray for you. I didn't lay hands on you. You just learned how to fight that on your own. This is warfare. This is warfare. What do you feel now? I feel like a burden's gone. A burden's gone. He says cast all your burdens, give all of it to him, right? Like give everything, like it's all gone when you give it to him. This is how you do it. Like literally believing it, cause you just, both of y'all just believed it. That's, it wasn't activated because we screamed together. Did the faith in the building stir up together and won a court? Of course. And that doesn't help out a lot.
Yes, it does. There's unity, but it was because you believed. What do you feel now, bro? Peace. You feel peace. That's it. Be honest. What do you feel now? Be honest. I feel like it came off my chest. It came off your chest? How many years was it on your chest, you think? Or how much time? A long time. Give me a, give me a time frame. 13. Since you were 13. Guilt, huh? What was on your chest? Unforgiveness. You just forgave? Yeah. My brother. What'd you just feel? I felt like the Holy Spirit was filling me up even more to get rid of the little bit of fear that I have that he won't bring my children back home. Alive from the pit of hell. Jesus partners with us to move on this planet. Can he just do everything he wants
and just get everything done he could? But he partners with us on this planet. And he needs you. Because think about this. Who's standing in the gap for your children? Other than you. The enemy. I mean, I'm talking about in the good gap. Intercession. There's nobody in the good gap. Oh, Jesus is. Of course. The great intercessor. But he needs you to have faith. That's it. And he moves through it, dude. He moves through you. You know what you guys are doing? You know how you get in the spirit? I was telling someone today, this young woman in our church, because she was like, I think I just need to get in the spirit more. I said, turn off the lights and turn it back on. That's how quick you get in the spirit. By just in your heart, knowing that you are in the spirit, that the Holy Spirit lives in you. So every time the devil, is he gonna try to come at you again
to make you feel all your children will never come, or whatever it is? Of course, that's his job. Every time he does, I heard this revivalist, this pastor guy. It's a story I've heard from many preachers. He was getting attacked by the devil. And he put a chair in front of him, sat down in another chair, and said, devil, I'm gonna worship God, and you're gonna watch me. I don't even know who that was. That's what you're gonna do. Every time, I want you to remember this. And you literally get a chair, and you put it down, and you sit in another chair, and you say, devil, watch me. And you start doing what we just did. Until that feeling, or that atmosphere breaks off, like they said. Because we wrestle against these atmospheres. Demonic spirits, when they attack, they bring atmospheres. Is the devil gonna try to make you feel again that you haven't forgotten? Of course. Is he going to? Whatever he was making you feel, I don't know what it was.
Is he gonna try to attack you again? Of course. That's his job. But he's already defeated. So what are you gonna do when he attacks again? What are you gonna do? Put your hands up and show me. Right now. Close your eyes. What are you gonna do when the devil attacks with fear? Do it. Thank you, Jesus. For what? Thank you, Jesus. For what? For saving me. For giving me salvation. What else? Bringing me out of darkness. What else? For loving me. Yes, what else? For keeping me. Yes. That's it, bro. That's it. That's it. See, every single time. Bro, look at me. Every time.
You don't stop. You keep doing it, and doing it, and doing it. I get attacks that come at me and my family. And sometimes I'm praising for hours. It feels like 10 minutes. I look at the clock, it's been two hours. And I won't stop praising and worshiping until that atmosphere not only breaks off, but I also, I need to shoot my shots in the spirit too. He shoots them shots, I break his shots, and then I shoot back. And I intercede. So the same person he wants me to divide from, once I break that atmosphere, now I start blessing them. That same thing he tried to bring fear against me about, I break the atmosphere, then I declare the truth over that thing. And that's why he, I know he fears me. I know this. Not because I'm this great person, but because I actually believe the word. He can't stand it. He fears people who actually believe. My wife dealing with breast cancer for three and a half years, you don't think I got attacked with atmospheres. After every service, after souls are getting saved, I got attacked, bro, I got attacked. And it was personal. I didn't have nobody around me to pray with me, those late nights, just me and the Holy Ghost. And I would pray and dance and praise and worship and battle, it was personal, now she's
healed, right? Praise God. You know what was the most valuable thing, praise Jesus, we love you God, the most valuable thing I learned was that, how to go to war, bro, at a deeper level, and it's gonna only get deeper. The deep calleth on to the deep. Are you ready for deep waters? There's no other option, you can't stop it and decide I wanna go shallow, you're only gonna go deeper, the trials get stronger, but the faith gets higher, you're only gonna increase in faith, and the more faith you have, the more authority, the more authority you have, the more dominion, the more dominion you have, the more territory you can take for the kingdom to bring souls into the kingdom. This is a war, bro, this isn't no soft cupcake stuff. You guys are soldiers, bro, all of y'all are soldiers, praise God you just forgave, praise God all these things happened, amen, that's amazing. But remember this, you still gotta fight, you're gonna have to fight, you know the Bible says this, not to be entangled with the stuff of the world, because we at war, yes, and I get it, God loves me, he does, and I thank him and I worship him with contemporary worship music, I love it, but then I go to war too, there's a time for war, and worship is warfare. If the devil can steal your worship and make you shut your mouth and not worship God anymore, he wins, because then you have no power. And what happens when you start to worship, the atmosphere of heaven comes down, and also oozes through you, and when that happens, what leaves? Every demonic atmosphere. You ever been in the atmosphere of the Holy Spirit and felt like a demon was tormented? You know, it has to go, even Saul, who was possessed, whatever you want, possessed or oppressed by a demon, literally every time he was in the presence of God, would drop, he would change. Isn't that crazy? But even Saul, a demon-possessed king, when he went to the house of the prophets, trying
to kill David, he got so encountered by the Lord, he stripped butt naked. What did Adam and Eve do when they were condemned? They put fake leaves on them, he did the opposite. A demon-possessed man got naked before the Lord, that's how powerful God's presence is. Y'all say, we need God's presence. Y'all understand what just happened? Y'all feel the shift in the atmosphere for y'all lives? Say I'm not soft. Say I'm not a wimp. Say I'm powerful. Say the all-powerful lives in me. Now let's praise him like it's true. Yeah, Jesus! Hallelujah. Thank you, Lord. Y'all may be seated. Amen. We're going to have an altar call and everything and pray some more at the end too. How many of y'all felt that the faith in the building increase? You feel it? That's it. I want to do this real quick. I have a long message, but I think that's good enough. How many people live here locally in Orlando? Keep your hand raised if you're not part of a church. Okay. As a Christian, it is not an option, okay? You need to get part of a ministry. Not because the Bible says to do it, so I'm just going to do it. No, but because God loves you and when you follow his word, you bear good fruit.
What happens when you're plugged into a community? You have family that you can go to war with. I don't go to war by myself. I have a whole team of family members who intercede for me and my family. Do you understand that? One can take down 1,000. Two can take down 10,000. I do the math. How many can 300 take down? Trillions, quadrillions. I don't know. A lot. Do the math. It's times 10. So when you're not plugged into a local church, you're not under a covering. And what ends up happening? You get torn up by the enemy. I'm not cursing nobody. I'm just talking about what the book of Hebrews says. Submit to a leader who has watch over your soul. Do not forsake the assembly of the saints. The unity of the brethren. It's like oil dripping down the beard of Aaron, right down to his garments. Why does the Bible say all these things? Why do we see in the scriptures the early church was so unified and so vast in numbers? Because God needed that to happen to do what he wanted to do. The early church would shake. The place would shake because of how unified unity they were. How many people were in that upper room? One? 120. It's probably about 200 people in here right now, give or take. It's all God needed to make a whole worldwide move to start it off. Isn't that crazy? So yes, get plugged into a local church. But what I want to do right now is for anybody that has not given their life to Jesus, has not surrendered to this gospel message, this good news message that you can be saved with your sins wiped clean by the only man who ever walked this earth perfect, the man God, Jesus Christ, who died on that cross, was buried and rose. If you've never put your faith in him as your Lord and believe it, he's rose from the dead, and you've never repented and truly turned away to turn to Jesus and walk this walk out, and you want to get saved tonight and make that decision like, I'm done. I put my faith in Jesus for real. I want you to stand up and come to this altar and we're going to pray for you. Come on up. And for everybody watching online, if you want to give your life to Jesus, put a one in the chat. Come on up. If you feel that tug in your heart,
don't even hesitate. Come on up and we're going to pray for you. Hallelujah, man. New soldiers, new sons and daughters. Come on up. Hallelujah. Did you guys make the premeditated decision to come to this church today and get tonight and give your life to Jesus? Yes, sir. So you guys came ready. You're like, bro, we going. You were like, I'm going to give my life to Jesus. Yes, sir. What's your name, bro? My name is Jaden. Jaden. Richard, man. Nice to meet you, bro. What's your name? Kendra. Richard. Nice to meet you. Married? No. Okay. Girlfriend, boyfriend? Yes, sir. All right. You want me to keep it real or you want me to just make it candy cane? Very real. Okay. The truth is the Bible says to flee from fornication. That means run away really fast. If you guys are stumbling, what I did, what did I do? I'm only going to tell you what I did. I get saved. I'm with my girl. She's pregnant with my first child and I made the decision to flee from fornication. First, I made the decision to burn every single witchcraft item, get rid of all the drugs and then separate from her and sleep in a separate room. I made this decision to either I'm going to get married or I'm going to leave this house. It's crazy. We were talking about that today. Really? Yeah. You guys have been bringing it up for a while. Amen. So what's the decision? The decision is, I think that's the right thing to do. What is it? To stop fornicating. Okay. You guys live together? Yes, sir. So you guys going to separate? No, sir. You guys are going to stay together? Yes, sir. You know the Bible talks about what looks like sin is sin, right? It could be a stumbling block. How much do you love God, bro? How much are you serious about this wall? Very serious. If you guys don't follow this word like I preached, you will bear bad fruit. What do I recommend? Two things I always recommend. Marriage or separation. Fully. Live in separate houses. Do I recommend you just get married right away? No. I recommend premarital counseling. I recommend getting plugged into a church. I recommend like really knowing that God has ordained y'all to be married. You have children together yet? No, sir. Okay. No children. Great opportunity. Does it hurt? Will it hurt? Yes. A lot. But you break that unhealthy soul time because tonight you're surrendering your life to Jesus which is powerful. Amen. You're going to get filled with the spirit. If you're not already, you're going to get baptized in that water. Powerful. But the only way to be to endure to the end in this kingdom, bro, is to follow his word. And you can, the enemy will try to make you think all types of stuff. I don't have to do that.
We can live in the same house and not fornicate. I already know what he's putting in your mind. And if you do that, that's called pride. And what you're trying to do is play the role of God instead of being desperate to follow him because you know that he's the only way. He's either the 100% way or no way. So are you guys making that decision tonight? Yes, sir. Okay, it's gonna hurt, but it's gonna be good. The suffering actually brings character, perseverance, hope, and more glory, bro, more faith. It's not easy, bro, but I believe that God's gonna do something miraculous, man, like if you trust him and obey him, even when you can't see it, because it won't make sense. All you have is his word, bro. That's the sword of the spirit. You ever heard that? No, sir. So that Bible, everything in that is your weapon. You seem like a militant man, but everything in there is gonna be your weapon. Everything to fight. You cannot fight any other way. Don't let opinions, emotions, feelings fight with the word, even when your emotions go against it. The Bible says that that right there separates bone and marrow, soul and spirit. So it actually divides, and it takes out those wrong emotions and fills you with good ones. Desires for God. Amen?
Amen. All right. Are these the only two people giving their life to Jesus? Praise God. You guys got a special night tonight. For real, bro, this is special. Wow. I love it. I love it. I love it. I love it. I love it. I love it. So then everybody stand up. I love it. Y'all, hey, sorry. Usually it's like 50 people, but tonight God made it special because it's that important to him. Must have a serious calling in your life. Amen. So I want y'all to just close your eyes, man, and just say this. Say, Jesus, we believe that you took the punishment for all my sins. Your blood wipes me clean. I'm forgiven. You died on the cross. You were buried and rose from the dead on the third day. Say, Jesus, I repent.
I turn away from following sin. I turn to you and make that commitment fully in my heart to follow you for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name. Let me get a man of God, Alan, come here. And a woman of God, come here. Prayer warrior, Tavia, come here. We're gonna pray for y'all. I feel like to do this before we pray. I'm gonna ask it again. I'm gonna ask it again. How much do you guys love God? I know it's new, but you really love God, for real? Okay, so what I'm gonna do is this. Look, in the spirit, every demonic soul tie, I cut it right now in the name of Jesus. And I pray, Lord, that if they're meant to be married, Lord, you make it happen. Come on, lay your hands on me. Lay your hands on me. Yeah, I just felt something loose, bro, that's it. In Jesus' name, Lord, fill them with your love. Come on, everyone put your hands out. Let's pray for them. Begin to just bless them in the spirit. Speak life over them. Whatever the Holy Spirit puts in your heart, waterfall them with your love. Shittabalosayim, thank you, Lord. They will be obedient to you.
Thank you, Lord, that you've broken every unhealthy soul tie. Thank you, Lord, they're now tied to you. Their soul is tied to you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord, they've been filled with the Holy Spirit now. Spirit of God, bring conviction. Bring revelation, bring sanctification. Keep them, Lord. You have a mighty call for their life, both of them. If they're meant to be married, Lord, you'll make it happen. I pray that they're radically obedient. Bless them, Lord, with your love right now, your sweet presence, Jesus. They came up here for a reason. They made that decision truly in their heart. Thank you for the angels assigned to them, Lord, that are walking with them. Thank you for the prayers of his mother. Thank you, Lord, that depression will no longer have power over her. Anxiety has no power over her. Fear has no power over her. Thank you, Lord, my brother will not have to be prideful and fight his own fight. He's gonna trust in you. Thank you that rejection has no power over him. Thank you, Lord, healing is flowing through his body right now.
Every demon has to go, every chain must break. Every demon has to go, every chain must break. Shalabarosa. Thank you, Jesus. Fear has no power. Power, love, sound, and mind. You give them power, love, sound, and mind. Power, love, sound, and mind. Power, love, and sound. Power, love, and sound, mine, power, love, and sound, mine. Thank you, Lord. In Jesus' name. Hey, brother. Come on. Come on. You getting baptized too, woman of God? Come on, let's go. Go follow him, okay? Anybody else want to get water baptized? Now's the time if you want to get baptized. Go ahead and get baptized. You getting baptized, woman of God? Okay, she's going to get baptized. Amen. And if any of y'all have cigarettes and vapes and witchcraft or anything, you can bring it to the altar. We'll get rid of it. Amen. But what I want to do right now is I want to worship. Y'all want to worship?
Are they getting baptized too or no? I feel like that message about the fornication thing and just breaking up at the altar, it touched a lot of different people in here who are going through the exact same thing. If that's you and you want that breakthrough, come to the altar now. If you're ready to be done with fornication, I can't, I can't, I can't. You got to make the decision, bro. Come up and repent. If you're done. This is beautiful. The word is so true, it's so alive. Jesus. Prayer warriors, get ready. At the front, I want you to just close your eyes, put your hands up in victory, focus your heart on Jesus and say, yes, Lord. And everybody watching online that's repenting too, I want you to do the same thing. Wherever you're at around the world, even if you're watching on the rerun, make that decision in your heart right now to repent. And I want everyone that's repenting, is done, say, Jesus, I thank you. Every unhealthy soul tie is broken by your blood. I repent. I turn away fully in my heart, fully in my mind from practicing sin. No more my way, only Jesus' way. Say, Jesus, heal me, deliver me.

Have you ever seen somebody just make it to the NBA without ever practicing basketball? As you practice righteousness, what begins to happen is you go to new levels. Everyone say consistency. If you're consistent in a sport, you get good at it. When you're consistent with seeking God, you get good at it. And what begins to happen is your whole life starts to look different, supernaturally. If you seek God with your whole heart, your entire life will change. It'll be out of your control. If there's one thing, if you get to a state of what do I do, what's going on, just seek him. Scriptures, prayer, worship, fundamentals, stick to those things and I promise you in the next year, two years, six months, three years, one month, your entire life will look different. That's what not too many Christians do. Not just one week, your entire life. And I'm telling you, God will not fail you. You will start to see your life shift. I've been saved seven years and my life looks completely different. In so many ways that you guys don't know. And it's not because I did anything better or whatever than you. I just seek God with my whole heart, realizing that I need him all the time and without him, I can't make it. And because I know that and I hunger and thirst for righteousness, he's always faithful to fill me. So if there's anything you take away from tonight, for the saved people, be consistent, be diligent. Everyone say diligent.
Seek the Lord diligently, and the Bible says he will reward you. Amen. I want us to all posture our hearts and get ready to take some communion. Y'all ready? Make sure you have a communion cup. Let's go back to our seats, and we're going to get ready to take holy communion, man. The bread and the wine. If you need a communion cup, can I have you raise your hand? Raise your hand high. Hallelujah. For everybody who's tuning in online, too, I would love for you to join us in communion. From the comfort of your home, you may not be here with us physically, but you're here with us in the Spirit. So whatever you have, grab it and partake in holy communion alongside with us. Hallelujah. Can we just give praise to Jesus? Come on. We thank you so much, Jesus. We praise your holy name, and this is from deep within. This is from the very being of our soul. We praise you, Lord, and we give you glory. You are so beautiful. You are so majestic, and you come through every single time. You are a God who cannot lie. You are a God who cannot fail. You're so perfect, my Lord, and I thank you in the name of Jesus for all that you've done tonight, the breakthrough, and even right now in this atmosphere, we just plaster our hearts because we're prepared to sit at your table to remember your sacrifice. So what I want is for everybody to really just meditate how good God is, and as you meditate on how good God is, I want you to lay aside all weight.
Everything is very, very holy, and it's not to be done in an unworthy fashion. So you know what it is that you need to lay aside, to lay at the feet of Jesus, whatever it is, any hidden bitterness, unforgiveness, sexual immorality, whatever it is, I implore you to release it tonight, to give it to Jesus, and let it go. So we're gonna have a brief moment of silence so that you can release it right now. So I wanna read you guys a quick verse, and it comes from the book of Matthew, chapter 27, verse 46, and it reads, in about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lemma sabachthani, that is, my God, my God, why have you forsaken me? You see, my brothers and my sisters, I want you guys to understand that this was not a cry of unbelief, it was a cry of the spotless lamb carrying the weight of the world's sin. You see, for the first time in eternity, the Son, who had and was always in perfect relationship with the Father, experienced the judgment that sin deserves. He, who knew no sin, became sin for us. us. The one who had never been separated, willingly stepped into our separation so we would never have to. And I want you guys to pay attention to something. Jesus did not say in that moment, my father. He said, my God, my God. Because no matter what, whether you choose to accept the Father, there's one thing that He is. He is God over everything. He is God over creation. He is God over everybody. So that means that judgment must be served. And in that moment, the intimacy of the Father and the Son gave way for a moment to the courtroom of divine justice. And at the cross, He was not simply suffering physically. He was bearing the wrath, judgment, and curse that belonged to all of us. And yet, even in His agony, He still said, my God. I want everybody to say, my God. You see, faith remained where feelings disappeared. Heaven was silent, but His trust never wavered. And sometimes the greatest faith is not when you feel God's presence, but when you continue calling Him, my God, while carrying your cross. And in that moment, Jesus was quoting Psalm 22. Those standing nearby heard a cry of abandonment, but having heard the opening line of a prophetic Psalm that ends in complete victory. This is what we were discussing earlier. Because of Jesus' sacrifice, you now walk in victory. You are now victorious because of what He did on that cross. That cross right here that you're looking at, that is a throne here on earth. So as we partake in communion,
we remember that Christ was forsaken so we could be accepted. He was rejected so we could be received. He became the curse so we could receive the blessing. He entered darkness so we can walk in marvelous light. So I want everybody right now to take out the bread. And I want you to just hold it up in the air, and I want you to just close your eyes and just take a moment to just pause and meditate on Christ's body being broken for you. Right there, just allow the Holy Spirit to minister to you. As you hold it up in the air, remember that every nail that He took was for you. The nails through His wrists, through His feet, and His body was broken in half so that you could be made whole. I want you to break the bread in half. Father, we thank you for sending your only begotten Son who willfully came down and took upon the wrath upon Himself. He took upon the sins of the world in Him. He willfully went through suffering, punishment, everything that we deserve. He went through it for us. Jesus, we honor you. We love you, our King. We love you, our Savior. We thank you that you broke your body in half for us so that we could be now made whole. So right now, I want everybody to take and eat of the Holy Bread, the body of Jesus Christ. Now, I want everybody to open up the cup. Every time we drink the cup, we remember that His blood did not simply cover sin for a season. It removed the barrier between God and man forever. So because of the blood that He spilled, there is no longer a veil anymore. The barrier has been removed and you are now united with the Father. Let us remember. As we partake of the blood of Jesus, that Jesus entered the deepest loneliness so we would never be spiritually abandoned. Because he cried, why have you forsaken me? Right now, every believer now has access and can now boldly pray, my father. Everybody say, my father. So let's hold the cup up in the air. Jesus, we thank you for spilling your blood. We thank you right now that we are washed
because of your blood. We are forgiven. There is no condemnation, no shame, no rejection. There is no lies that have a hold on us anymore because of your blood that freed us. We thank you and we praise your holy name. And tonight, we take this as we bask in victory. Hold the cup up high. Come on, hold it up high right now. And I want everybody just to begin to thank Jesus Christ. Thank him right now. Just thank him. This is a toast to the king as we await his return. We remember this forever and evermore. You may now drink of the holy blood. And now can we honor the king? Come on, praise him like you know you're victorious. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. So can I have everybody stand and join me? Pray. Hallelujah. Amen. How's everybody feeling tonight? Y'all feeling empowered, right? Amen. That's what it means to be a Christian, to walk in Christ, is to walk in power. You all walk in power because of the finished work of Jesus Christ.
