Day 2: The Power of Community and Anointing

Community and fellowship are vital aspects of our spiritual journey. Welcoming new members into the church family highlights the importance of these connections. The anointing flows from leadership to the congregation, bringing healing and breaking burdens. This shared anointing empowers us to flourish and bear fruit, even in challenging times. Embrace the strength and support that comes from being part of a faith community. [05:37]

"Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity! It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes!" (Psalm 133:1-2, ESV)

We are reminded to hold our peace and trust in God's covenant, knowing that He is working on our behalf. This is a time to stand firm in faith, believing that God is bringing justice and righteousness to the forefront. Let go of the need to control and allow God to lead the way. By surrendering our battles to Him, we can experience His peace and assurance. [13:20]

"The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent." (Exodus 14:14, ESV)

Commanding our households and living according to God's ways is crucial in this season. By setting a standard of righteousness and justice in our homes and communities, we invite God's favor and presence into our lives. This commitment to God's ways not only honors Him but also serves as a powerful testimony to those around us. [34:23]

This is September 15th of 2023. Do not think I've somehow ignored the injustice or the corruption of evil. The things that have been deep stated, no, I have watched and I've waited for this time for this is not your season, nor does it the seasons of the earth. It's my season. [00:09:10] (21 seconds)

And we were praying here. It was beautiful. It was like the second service. And I saw the Lord appear and I was praying. We were all praying together for this nation. And I remember the Lord was standing right about here and he turned around and he kind of hushed me because he was saying, Hank, you all and the people have prayed and you've taken things as far as you can now. [00:14:08] (25 seconds)

The Spirit of God began to prophesy through our ministry, and he said that there would be a plague. He talked about China would have their hand in this that would touch the world. And we can see that that played out, but here's a prophecy that he said. He said that the decade would start off harsh. [00:18:22] (20 seconds)

And I said, what do you mean? And he began to show me. And I went through the scripture and I started going to the Jewish encyclopedia. I started searching it out. I started realizing, wait a minute. God is trying to say something. He on purpose did not have them go the route that would take seven days because that's where the Philistine territory where they were not. [00:20:57] (20 seconds)

And God then becomes a friend of yours and you become a friend and he begins to trust you because he sees if you can keep your house in order. That doesn't mean your kids behave all the time. I wrote a book one time and about how to raise kids and I've never released it because I don't know how. [00:37:53] (18 seconds)

So God will revisit things. So what you see with Israel, God is saying it's playing out again, and here's how. As in the days of Noah, Jesus said, right? There are certain things in Noah's day that will play out again. It's called a prophetic narrative. Ecclesiastes 7, I think it's verse 8 or 9 right in there. [00:51:20] (19 seconds)
