“And Bible says, the hand of the Lord was with them. Who? The people who take the gospel to the strangers, the new people, the hand of the Lord, the hand of the Lord. You're gonna experience the hand of the Lord, you'll be in that group of that some among them. That some people who will take, who will understand the way of God. Who am I to stand in the way of the Lord? And they come to know that this is the way of the Lord, to take the gospel to people who never heard it, who never heard it. To my office, to my school, to my people sitting somewhere in the grocery store, somewhere, somewhere, somewhere. I will take the gospel. I will.”
35s
“And so I've over and over again, in particular with prophecy this weekend, tried to make a case for you that prophecy is so much more than about being somebody. That prophecy really is a means by which we show people the love of God. Like our, that whole point of chapter 13 is to say, hey, look, all of the most powerful forms of these gifts, not just the tongues of men, tongues of angels, they're just a way to love people. When we divorce these gifts from love, it really does us no good.”
37s
“It's a powerful thing tonight to consider. So if you've been waiting on God, somebody that's in the living room, if you've been waiting on God to do the supernatural in your life, I want you to ask him what part he wants you to play and then obey him. Because his supernatural is always sure to follow. It comes back to the simple equation. God's part, my part. That there is a divine partnership when it comes to our relationship with Jesus Christ.”
63s
“So when things like that happens, the community earbuds, your cultural earbuds, racial earbuds you keep in your ear. You hear only what you play. You don't hear what is happening around you. Hello? Hello? You don't hear even what God is speaking. The externals, sometimes we are so focused on externals. Sometimes we are for so conditioned with our denomination. Denominations. The earbuds works, but it is playing only only what you play. But your ears, God given you to keep it open. Keep it open to listen at least to the voice of God.”
46s
“And when it comes to praying, the truth is it's not the super spiritual person that gets the gift of tongues. It's people like me who just don't know how to pray. And God says, here you go buddy. Let me help you with that. I mentioned this because that is kind of the purpose of the gifts of the spirit. All said and done, it's a way to love people with the power of God. You see somebody suffering and in pain and they, what do they need? Well, they need healing. God says here, let me give you a gift of healing. Prophecy, in fact, I would say that all of these gifts that God has given us are primarily to love people with the power of God in such a way that brings about a real change in their lives.”
32s
“Every healing I've seen, it causes me to know and trust this one undisputable fact that one day, Jesus Christ is gonna return. And when he does, he's going to raise the dead into newness of life. Every healing affirms my faith. It confirms that one day the resurrection truly will happen. Do you know why? Because I saw God's healing power.”
63s
“sheep is lost. And the shepherd is leaving the 99 and running after that one and finding that one and bringing it home. Now, both the boss is doing that ministry. Why this is recorded in the scripture? Book of Acts must be repeated. Book of Acts is for us. That is the church. I gave the title when I started this series, back to the roots. Why get back to the roots? Because we must repeat happened in acts in our own lives. Seek, seek the lost. You may know somebody going through tough time. You may know somebody in depression. Someone in need, someone be the Barnabash. Look for him. And after that we we say one more thing.”
37s
“for you and I tonight, here it is. The outside force that removes the yoke of bondage in our life is the anointing, which is God's presence. The anointing, which is God's presence, that is the outside force that removes the yoke of bondage in our life. That word the word anointing is is charisma in the original Greek. It's very close it's very closely related to the word that's used in the New Testament when the gifts of the spirit are talked about, which is charisma.”
34s
“Moses had to do his part by raising up his staff so that God can do his part. What what about Joshua? That God instructed Joshua to have all of his men march around Jericho one time every day for six days. Then on the seventh day, they were instructed to march around the city seven times and have the priest blow the trumpets according to Joshua six, and the others shout the victory on that seventh time. And at that moment, God said that he would do the supernatural.”
35s
“While toxic thoughts like fear and anxiety and unforgiveness can damage the brain and body through the chemicals that they produce, when we pray, our body produces chemicals that have a positive effect. And these chemicals heal the damage and create physical changes the brain and body need to thrive. Fear and anxiety will never change anything, but prayer does. It can change our situation, but perhaps even more importantly, it changes us, and that's the power of prayer.”
