Great Things Comes in small packages By Bishop TD Jakes · Pst T.D Jakes -The POTTER'S HOUSE

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I'm preaching from the subject, great things come in small packages.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Great things come in small packages. I'm in the book
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: of Proverbs, chapter number 30, verse 24 through 28. We're
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: not going to stand and read it, but that just
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: lets you know if you weren't here last night, the
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: train is already in motion.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: We're just going to keep on moving down the track.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: They're the move of God in this place. In the
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: text we compared, in the introduction we talked about the
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: big five in South Africa and how preferred they were
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: and pursued for the safaris. But when God got ready
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: to express his glory, he used the little four. We
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: talked about two of the little four. And it is
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: my intention, by the grace of God, before I finish tonight,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to talk about the last two, number three and number four.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: But before I do, I want to examine this subject
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: a little bit tonight. Great things come in small packages.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Great things come in small. Most believers don't really recognize
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: that their body houses the Spirit of God. I mean, spirit-filled, tongue-talking,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: anointed believers seem not to be cognizant of the fact
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: that the glory of God lives in your body. And
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: it's not so much that we intend to be unbelievers,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: it's just that it boggles the mind when you begin
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: to think of the greatness of God. See, most people
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: don't know how great God is. They've reduced God down
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: to good. God is good, but God is more than good.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Good just describes an aspect of God. God is more
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: than good. God is great. God is awesome. God is omnipotent.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: God is omnipresent. God is omniscient. God filleth all in all.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: He is before all things and in all things and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: by him all things consist. Years ago when I was
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: growing up, Life Magazine had on the cover of their
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: magazine a very controversial heading. It said, Is God Dead?
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: And they debated for months and perhaps even years after that,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Is God Dead? It was the most ridiculous, idiotic thing
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I had ever heard in my life. There is no
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: way that God could die. He wasn't born, so he
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: can't die. Moses went back as far as he could go,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and when he got all the way back to the beginning,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: God was standing behind that. So he said, in the beginning,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: God died. He couldn't find God's beginning. He could only
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: find our beginning. And when he backed it up as
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: far as he could go, he said God was still
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: standing somewhere behind that. David looked at it and said,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. One writer says,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: without father or mother, without beginning or end of days,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: he is Zamel Kezadek. He ever liveth. He ever liveth.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: He is God. One writer says that he sits. On
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the circle of the earth. That heaven is his throne
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and earth is his footstool. God said, I'm so big
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: that I rest my feet on your planet. I'm God,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: meaning everything is up under my control and up under
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: my auspices. There is absolutely nothing going on that I
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: don't have control over. Not of things in the earth
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: or things under the earth. And then he says, I
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: alone am God. I alone am God. I don't have
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: a committee. I don't have a board. I don't have
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: any directors. I don't have a boss. I alone am God.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: And beside me, there is no other. He said, I
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: look for someone greater than me to swear by. He said,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: but I couldn't find anything greater than myself. Now, you know,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: when God can't find it, you know we can give
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: up on trying to find. God said, I couldn't find
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: anything greater than myself. Therefore, I swear by myself. He's
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the by myself God. I redeemed you by myself. I
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: called you by myself. I saved you by myself. I
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: helped you by myself. I delivered you by myself. I'll
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: rapture you by myself. I'll preserve you by myself. I'll
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: keep you by myself. I'll protect you by myself. I'll
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: provide for you by myself. I'll counsel you by myself.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I'll repair you by myself. I'll raise you by myself.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I am the standalone God. Now it becomes inconceivable, hardly
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: comprehensible that the God of the universe, the God of
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: eternity would make himself available to you. First place, the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: book of Genesis moves, talks about the spirit of God,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: says the spirit of God moved upon the face of
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: the water. The very first thing God tells us about
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: his spirit is that it moves. It moves and from
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: the book of Genesis where it moves to the book
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: of Revelations where it says, even so come Lord Jesus.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: The Spirit of God is moving and coming from chapter
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: to chapter, from verse to verse. He's always intervening and
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: sometimes interfering in the affairs of men because He is
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: God and He has the right to do that and
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: nobody can stop Him from doing it. He's God all
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: by Himself. The Spirit moved upon the face of the deep.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: But then the Bible, when it begins to talk about
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: God dealing with man, and about the eighth chapter of
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the book of Genesis, he begins to warn us, my
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: spirit will not strive with man always. So there was
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: a striving period where the spirit of God begins to
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: strive with us. It begins to wrestle. It begins to develop.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: It's talking about Noah. But even with us, it strives
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: with us. There's a time in your life where God
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: is striving with you. Some of you are in here
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: right now. Whether you know it or not, God is
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: striving with you. You haven't really sold out to God.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: You haven't even committed your life to the Lord. And
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: there's a struggle going on. And some of you have
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: a strong resistance to God. And you can't have resistance
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: without an opposite force pulling. And the reason you're so
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: obstinate about God is because there's a struggle going on
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: in your life. And God is striving with you. And
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: some of you are proud of how well you have
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: resisted God. But I want to warn you. I want
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: to warn you. You should be afraid. Suppose he stops calling.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Suppose he stops pulling. Suppose he stops tugging at your heart.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: That's why he said, the day you hear my voice,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: harden not your heart. He said, don't play hard to
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: get with me. Because I don't have to have you.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: I could raise up somebody that looks just like you.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: They'd never know you were gone. But it just pleased
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: me to draw you. The Spirit of God that moved
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: upon the face of the deep in the eighth chapter
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: of the book of Genesis begins to strive with man.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: We soon enter into a period where we see visitations
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: of the Holy Spirit. Where the Holy Spirit comes upon
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: us for a specific task. This visitation is represented by
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: the anointing that falls upon us when we consecrate people
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: to the priesthood. And they're anointed and the oil fell
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: upon the head of Aaron and onto his beard and
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: onto his skirts. God anointing them to perform a particular task.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: And all through the Old Testament you hear phrases like
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: the Spirit of the Lord came upon Samson. And the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Spirit of the Lord came upon Joshua. And the Spirit
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: of the Lord came upon Ezekiel. Meaning that God anointed
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: them just for a particular task or assignment. These visitations,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: these visitations of the great God visiting man happened over
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: and over in the Old Testament all the way up
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: through the minor prophets and the major prophets and all
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: through the books of poetry. We see God visiting people,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: visiting his kings and visiting his judges and visiting his
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: priests and visiting his prophets for a particular assignment. He
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: visited Habakkuk. He visited Jeremiah. He visited Opadiah. He visited Zephaniah.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: He visited Micah. He visited Amos. He visited Habakkuk. He
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: visited Malachi. He visited all the way up to Malachi.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: And for 400 years, God said absolutely nothing at all.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the next time we see the spirit of God move
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: he's not just moving on prophets priests nor kings but
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: there is a pregnant woman A woman named Ezekiel, an
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: old woman who is pregnant. A woman named Elizabeth, an
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: old woman who is pregnant with a child that she
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: doesn't understand how in the world she was able to
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: get pregnant. And there is a young girl who gets
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: pregnant shortly thereafter. Her cousin named Mary. And Mary is
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: pregnant with that that was given to her because the
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Holy Ghost has come upon her. The Holy Ghost has
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: come upon her. filled her and there's something in her
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: belly and when Mary in her confusion about her pregnancy
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: because she knows that she's never been with a man
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: goes and knocks on the door of her cousin Elizabeth
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: the Bible said that when these two pregnant women see
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: let me tell you something about fellowship the reason our
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: fellowship is not as powerful as it ought to be
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: is because we fellowship with people that have empty wounds
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: And when you fellowship with people that have empty wounds,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: they drain you. They pull the life out of you.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: They pull the strength out of you because they don't
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: have anything in them to give you. But if you
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: can find. If you can find any two people who
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: are pregnant with that that God has done. I'm not
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: talking about what the university did. I'm not talking about
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: something that you mimicked. I'm not something that you practiced
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: in the mirror. But if you run into two people
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: that are pregnant with what God has done. The Bible
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: said that when Mary and Elizabeth greeted each other, the
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: babies leaped in their womb and were filled. filled with
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the Holy Ghost think of that that God would fill
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: a baby an embryo still in his mother's womb having
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: the water hadn't broken the baby hadn't cried and floating
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: in his mother's fluid already filled with the Holy Ghost
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: how can you do that because.
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: Great things come.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: In small packages look at God The first man, Adam,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: God created him grown. The first man, Adam, was never
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: a baby, never developed, never grew. The second man, Adam,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: God started in him in the womb, filled him with
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: the Holy Ghost, born in a manger, wrapped in swaddling clothes,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: because God wants you to know, though I am omnipotent, omnipresent,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: and omniscient, I'm going to do my greatest work in
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: small packages.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: When you begin to understand that, you understand God's purpose
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: in the earth is to dwell in you.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: In you.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Say me. Me. Talking about you sitting right there with
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: all the problems and all the crises and all the
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: trouble and all the weaknesses and all the inconsistency. Do
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: you understand that God chose to live in you? A
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: small thing, a weak thing, a frail thing, an inconsistent thing,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: but it just pleased God to make his abode in
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: your house. I would wager that the vast majority of
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: the people in this room have no sense or consciousness
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: that God lives in them. Because if you did, defeat
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: would not be in your vocabulary. If you really believe
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: that God was with you, then how could you fear
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: your boat was going to sink? How can your boat
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: sink if Jesus is a boy? Even if he's asleep,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: if he's on the ship anywhere, I don't care how
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: fierce the storm is, he will never overwhelm you. He
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: lives in you. I want you to say this with me.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: He lives in me.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Say it again.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Now think about what you see. Every day, every morning,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: every evening, every night, every week, every month, every year,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: every season, He lives in you. He dwells in you.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: He doesn't come and go. He doesn't just visit you
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: for church. He doesn't just come upon you for when
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: you preach. That's all over in the Old Testament. He's
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: not just striving with your weaknesses and your sins. That's
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: all over in the Old Testament. He's not just coming
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: upon you for an assignment, but he lives in you.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: What the apostle Paul says, Christ in you, the hope
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: of glory. Look at your neighbor and say, you can't
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: sink me. You can't sink me. No matter how you try,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you can't sink me. The storm can break out everywhere,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: but you'll never sink me. You may make me cry,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: but you won't sink me. You may get on my nerves,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: but you won't sink me. You may make me weak,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: but you won't sink me. I may be inconsistent, but
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: you won't sink me. I may be tossed to and fro,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: but you won't sink me. Look at your neighbor and say,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I know I don't look like much, but great things happen.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Great things come in small.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Packages.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Paul says we have this treasure in earthen vessels that
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: the excellency may be of God and not of us.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: He put it in cheap vessels. The vessel isn't much,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: but the contents are awesome. And whenever you start operating
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: in that level of anointing that we were in last night,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: powerful things begin to happen because you have pushed past
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: the flesh into the supernatural. When you get in the supernatural,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: you can do things that you couldn't do in your flesh.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: And the reason most.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Of you are tired right now is because you're trying
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: to do spiritual warfare in your flesh. And you cannot
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: win a spiritual victory while you're operating in your flesh.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: You have got to fight in the spirit. For the
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but they're mighty
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: through God. For the pulling down of strongholds, casting down
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: knowledge of God and bringeth every thought into captivity unto
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: the obedience of Christ. Look at your neighbor and say,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I'm going to whip the enemy. no say it like
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: to me I'm going to whip the enemy with something
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: that you can't see he'll never even see it coming
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: he'll never even know what hit him he'll be looking
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: at me saying ain't nothing to the package but don't
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: let the package fool you the package may be small
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: but the stuff inside of it is explosive it's dynamite
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: it's dunamis it is the force of God somebody holler
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: God whenever you call him I said, whenever you call him.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Whenever you get tired of calling people and break down
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: and call him. I don't care if they locked you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: in a jail cell, whenever you call him. Whenever you
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: throw your head back and holler his name. He said,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: his ear is open to your cry.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Somebody holler, God!
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: He'll come into your storm, into your midnight, into your crisis,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: into your dilemma. He knows your voice. While you're trying
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: to learn his voice, God already knows your voice. I
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: don't care if a thousand people are screaming. If you
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: call him, God can always hear you. And he said,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: I will come to you.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: If I've got to break in the jail and come get.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: You, I will come to you. Look at your neighbor
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: and say, be careful how you handle me. I'm dynamite. Yeah,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I am dynamite. I am dynamite. I am dynamite. Oh,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: it's not the package. The package is just junk. But
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: if you get past the wrapper down on the inside,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: there's some great stuff down inside of me. And you've
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: got to understand this greatness in weakness. This greatness in weakness.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: God said my strength is made perfect in weakness. I
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: always choose something weak so that the glory can be
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: of me and not of you.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: It pleases me.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: To show how much I can do in something small
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: and tiny and insignificant because I'm God. And somebody says,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: how can that little ant pull that great big thing
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: it's got hold to?
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: It's because God is behind it.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: And when God gets behind you, you don't have to
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: have enough money, enough friends, enough help, enough strength, enough teeth,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: enough husband, enough wife, enough anything else. But if God
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: be behind you. Put your hand on your stomach and holler,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: the Lord is with me. Oh, that's shouting stuff right there.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: The Lord is with me. I shall not be moved.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: I shall not be moved because the Lord is with me.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Paul says, Christ in you, the hope of glory. Some
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: of you have never released the real anointing that you
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: have inside. And I would venture to say that's the
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: reason you're going through some of the troubles you're going through.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Because trouble presses the anointing out of you. If you
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: would just learn how to open up, you wouldn't have
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: to be pressed like that. But because you're so tight
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: and so closed and so kept and so in control,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: God has to send stuff in your life that you
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: can't control so he can press the anointing out of you.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Whenever you learn how to just open up and release it,
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: you won't have to go through so much. But because
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: your spirit, your will is so strong and so stubborn,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: God allows you to go through it. pressings and crushing
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: until finally you open up and your spirit opens up
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: and the glory of the Lord begins to come up
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: out of your belly and you're in trouble and you
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: have nobody to talk to but God and if God
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't help you you're going to lose your mind and
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: you find yourself with tears running down your.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Face saying Lord I need and the glory.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: That's been on the inside begins to come up out
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: of your belly How many people want to be more
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: godly tonight? In order to be more godly, you must
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: heed the sermon of the ant. The sermon of the ant,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: as I told you last night, is to prepare yourself.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Prepare yourself for the things that God is about to do.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: God wants you to be a think-ahead person. A think-ahead,
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: look-ahead person. A person whose mind is always down the road.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: If you interview anybody that's ever been significantly blessed, they
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: are always talking about the next move. There are always
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: several steps ahead of the pack that thinking about what
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: they're going to do next year. While people who fail
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: are talking about what happened to them. Oh, I'm talking
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: to you. People who fail are always regurgitating the same experiences,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: repeating them over and over again, unable to bring closure.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: People who are successful are always thinking, you know what
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do? You know what I'm going to do?
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: And after that, I'm going to do this over here.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: And I got a plan. If things work out over there,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: I got a plan. I'm going to go over there.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: And they're always thinking ahead. In fact, people who have
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: heard the message at the end are getting happy now about...
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: And it will almost make them look idiotic because you
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: are looking at the condition they're in right now and saying,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: how can she shout at a time like this? But
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: she's not looking at where she is, she's looking at
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: where she's going and she's already living, already walking, already moving,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: already talking in the future. Look at your neighbor and say,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I'm already in the future. And I'm telling you, it's
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: getting better all the time. I'm telling you, it's going
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: to be all right. I'm not worried about my present
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: because I've already been to the top of the mountain.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I've already seen the other side. I already know how
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: the story is. And so the stuff that I'm dragging now,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not dragging stuff to fix where I am. I'm
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: not working on where I am. Where I am will
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: take care of itself. I'm working on where I'm going.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: When I tell you to prepare yourself, I want to.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: See you building stuff for the next move. I want
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: to see.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: You build an ark in your backyard and wait for
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: the rain. I want to see you make life catch
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: up with you. People who walk with God are always
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: ahead of life. They do stupid stuff. People laugh at
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: them and call them crazy. They prepare for rain and
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: nobody's ever heard of rain. They build boats in their
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: backyard and let the rain catch up with them. They're
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: ahead of their time because they're already walking in the
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: next dimension. Are there any people in this room who
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: are starting to walk in the next dimension? And you
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: almost seem crazy because you're not worried about things that
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: other people are worried about. And you almost become casual
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: and say, oh, don't worry about it. It's going to
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: be all right. And you know you didn't used to
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: be like that. You used to worry about everything. But
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: you're finally coming to the point that you've heeded the
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: message of the ant and you're preparing yourself. And then
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I told you last night that the cone is, the
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: cone is teach us to position ourselves To operate life
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: from a position of strength. Everybody has weaknesses. This is
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: a message. Let me say that again. Everybody has weaknesses.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Just because you have a weakness doesn't mean you can't
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: survive the jungle. But you have to operate from the
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: position of your strength rather than from the position of
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: your weakness. Everybody has weaknesses. Everybody in here has weaknesses, inconsistencies, inabilities, frailties, vulnerabilities,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: areas where they're intimidated. Everybody in here. I don't care
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: how saved, how spiritual, how anointed, how consecrated, how rich,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: how pretty, how tall, how short. Everybody in here could
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: heed the voice of the Coneys.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: In some area of.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: Your life, you are limited. But if you will allow
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: God to position you, God has already got a place
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: that will accommodate your weakness and build you up where
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: you can live your life from a position of strength.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: So we've heard from the ant and we've heard from
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: the conies and they have taught us well. They have
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: spoken things to us that we needed to hear. If
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: we have listened well to these little voices, we can
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: survive the jungle. And the lion will not destroy us.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Nor will the elephant trample us. The leopard will not
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: catch us. The rhino will not gore us. The buffalo
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: will not stumble us. Because we have heard the voice
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: of the ant and the conies. But if we stop
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: with the ant and the conies, my job will not
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: be complete. I want you to touch everybody you can
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: reach and tell them the locusts are coming. The locusts
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: are coming. The locusts are coming. The locusts are coming.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: The locusts are coming. The locusts are coming. The locusts
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: are coming. The locusts are coming. The locusts are coming.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: That's what
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: they would say in the cities. That's what they would
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: say in the eastern civilization when they looked up and
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: saw them. They'd look up and they'd scream, the locusts
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: are coming, the locusts are coming. They were more afraid
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: of the locusts than they were marching armies and chariots.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: They would rather deal with horses and swords and shields
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: than to deal with the locusts. Because if the locusts
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: came into a city, they would turn the city upside down.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: The locusts would bring down great civilizations and great kingdoms.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: They would destroy empires, crops, cattle. Everything died when the
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: locusts came. And so the Bible says that we must
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: heed the voice of the locusts. For there is something
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: that the locusts knows that God wants the church to know.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: If the church can ever begin to operate like the locusts,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: then no weapon formed against you shall be able to prosper.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: If the church can ever focus like the locusts and
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: do what the locusts does, you can go into the
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: enemy's camp and take them. pack what he stole from
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: you but you've got to learn how to do it
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: like the locusts look at somebody and tell them the
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: locusts are coming the locusts are coming the locusts are
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: coming the locusts are coming the Bible says that the
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: locusts has some attributes that I want to deliver to
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: you tonight and as you begin to understand these attributes
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: if you can get a hold to them they will
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: change your life when you hear the voice of the
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: locusts the locusts teaches you something different from the coney
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: and something different from the ant For the ant drags
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: his morsel of meat by himself and the coney hides
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: on the rock by himself. But the locust never does
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: anything by himself. If the church is going to learn
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: from the locusts, you have got to come from your
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: individualistic attitude and begin to understand that if you're going
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: to get this next wave of glory, you can't go
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: in by yourself. The locusts always come in a swarm.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: They come in a mass. They come in a pack.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: They come in a crowd. In fact, the Bible says
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: that when the locusts came into a situation, they would
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: blacken the sky. They would darken out the sun. You
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: couldn't even see the sun when the locusts came. The
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: locusts were so awesome. Now, I know you got to
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: get this because the enemy will try to to build
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: up a resistance against the locusts, but there is absolutely
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: nothing you can do. When the locusts hit a city,
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: there was nothing you could build that would keep them out.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: If you built a wall, they would come across it.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: If they ran into it, they would shrink down and
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: come through the cracks in the wall until they got
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: in the city. Once they broke through a crack in
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: the wall, they would take over the city. If they
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: got in one window or one door, they would eat
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: up everything in the house. They would eat up all
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: vegetation until literally it looked like when the locusts hit
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: a city, it would look like the city had been
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: set on fire. There would be nothing green left when
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: the locusts hit the place. They would devour everything. See,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: you got to run with some hungry people. You can't
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: run with some weak people. satisfied, laid back, casual, mediocre people.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: You've got to run in a pack of people who
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: have an appetite for life, an appetite for God, an
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: appetite for anointing.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: See, that will stop jealousy.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: If you run with hungry people, they're so barely eating
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: what's in front of them.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: That they don't mind you eating what's in front of you.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: You've been running with lazy people, but you got to
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: run with hungry people. The locust only runs with people
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: that have a great appetite. Touch somebody and tell them
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: the locusts are coming. if locusts get in a city
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: they'll turn it upside down if it happens in the
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: spirit it will turn a city upside down if two
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: hungry saints of God get in your office they will
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: turn your office upside down if you and your neighbor
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: start praying in your neighborhood you will devour your neighborhood
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: if you can find anybody in your house to touch
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: and agree with you. You can devour anything that the
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: enemy is trying to do in your house, but you've
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: got to hear the voice of the locusts. Oh, the
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: locusts are coming. The locusts are coming. The locusts are coming.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: The locusts are coming. For this move of God, you've
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: got to let somebody help you. And some of you
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: have issues with letting people in your life. You don't
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: want to talk to anybody. You don't want to open
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: up to anybody. You don't want to admit to anybody
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: that you need anything. But the locust is teaching you
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: that you're going to need some help to get to
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: this next level. Touch a neighbor and say, I'm going
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: to need some help. I need to surround myself with
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: people that can help me. I need to surround myself
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: with people that got an appetite. I need to surround
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: myself with people of passion and people of force. I
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: need to surround myself with people who will not be defeated.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: I was reading in one book that they tried to
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: burn the locusts to stop them from getting in the city.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: And the locusts come in so many masses that in
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: the Hebrew, in the Hebraistic terms of the text, it
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: says that they are the insects without number, which means
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: they cannot be numbered. They come in so many masses
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: that even when they tried to set them on fire,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the first few would die. And they'd die to put
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: the fire out so that the rest of them could
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: cross over. And when I read about the first one
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: dying so that the rest of them could cross over,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I thought about Jesus. For the enemy lit a fire
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: and he died so that I could cross over. Tell
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: somebody and tell them the locusts are coming. If the
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: devil would have been smart, he would have never crucified
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: the Lord. For when he crucified the Lord, he opened
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: up a way for me to cross through the burning
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: smoke of the crucifixion and to cross over to the
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: other side. There is no reason why you ought to
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: be defeated today. Jesus died so that you could go
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: into the enemy's camp and take back what he stole
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: from you. Jesus died so that you could cross over
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: to the next level. Jesus died so that no weapon
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: formed against you should be able to prosper. Tell somebody,
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: tell them the locusts are coming, the locusts are coming,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: the locusts are coming.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: My God. But.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: They were literally unstoppable. You're messed up when you quit.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: The message of the locust to you is don't quit.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: No matter how many obstacles or walls are built up
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: against you, the word from the locust to you is
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: never give up. Do not quit. Look at somebody and say,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: do not quit. The locust will teach you if you
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: can't get in the door, come in the window. If
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: you can't get in the window, climb down through the gutter.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: If you can't get in the gutter, come in up
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: under the porch. The locust teaches you to keep on
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: fighting and keep on pushing and keep on dragging. And
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: by the way, they're not big. They're not big, but
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: they're relentless. Are there any relentless people in here? I
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: want to talk to about a hundred relentless people in here.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Where are you, my relentless people? Yeah, I'm looking for
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: some relentless people. Some come hell or high water people.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: Some people who will not be revived. Some people who
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: will not stop. Some people who will not give up.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Slap somebody and tell them I'm relentless. I've been through
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: hell and high water, but I'm still here. They tried
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: to stop me at every turn, but I'm still here.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Some of you, the devil tried to kill you in
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: your mama's womb, but you're still here.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: You got sick as a baby, but.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: You're still here. You got affected in your youth, but
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: you're still here. You should have been locked up in jail,
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: but you're still here. People tried to kill you, but
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: you're still here. Somebody tried to shoot you, but you're
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: still here. You've been in a car wreck, but you're
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: still here. You've come out of surgery, but you're still here.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: You've got an affliction in your body, but you're still here.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: You've got a lump in your breast, but you're still here.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: You're shooting insulin, but you're still here. You're taking blood
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: pressure medication, but you're still here.
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: Call it me. I'm going to talk to the locusts.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: Touch some of the people and tell them I'm still here.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: I'm still here.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: I'm still here. I'm still here.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: I'm relentless.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: I'm reckless.
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: I'm still here.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: I'm still here. I'm still here. I'm still here.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: I'm little, but I'm bad. I'm still here. I'm broke,
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: but I'm bad.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I'm still here.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: I'm lonely, but I'm bad. I'm still here.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: I'm hurting, but I'm bad. I'm still here. Oh, hit
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: five people.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: Tell them the locusts are coming.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: The locusts are coming. See, most people want to pastor
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: the rich and the mighty. The influential and the powerful.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: But that don't bother me. I just want to pastor
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: the locusts.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Give me some reckless people. Give me some relentless people.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Give me some people who won't quit, who won't stop,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: who won't take down. You talking about revival? Revival comes
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: from the locusts. Are there any locusts in the house?
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: Survival.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: With your bad self. Survivor. Against all odds.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Survivor.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Against all storms. Survivor. Against all crisis. Survivor. Against all deliver.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Make some noise in the house. Brother and sister locusts,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: take about 10 seconds and give God a crazy praise.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: The Bible teaches us. Sit down, sit down, sit down.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: We'll just talk. The Bible teaches us that the locust
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: is not like the bee. The beast sends out someone
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: to go first, finds out where the nectar is and
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: comes back to the hive. But the Bible says the
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: locust has no leader. And what it means by that
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: is God is getting ready to take you someplace that
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: no one can take you. one has ever been before.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: God is getting ready to do something in your life.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: You're not going to copy somebody else's testimony. But God
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: is going to do something in your life so powerful
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: that you're going to say, I have never passed this
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: way before. There'll be no books on it. There'll be
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: no manuals on it. There'll be no tapes on it.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: There'll be nobody to bear witness.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: But the Lord said... I'm going to do a new
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: thing in you. You lost your job.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: So what? God's going to create a job. A new thing.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: A fresh thing. A greater thing. For the former.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Things are passed away.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: And I got a word for somebody in here. Reach
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: down in your belly and do something new. Touch your
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: neighbor and say, I got something new in me. Something
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: I ain't heard nobody talking about. Something I've never seen
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: anybody do before. But it's all in my spirit. It's
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: all in my dreams.
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: It's all in my mind.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: It's all in my heart.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: God said, y'all.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Got to help me because I feel like preaching in here.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Look at this church. I want to talk to somebody
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: who thought you was crazy because you had something in
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: your mind that nobody else was talking about. You had
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: something in your heart that nobody in your family has
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: ever done. But God is saying, I'm getting ready to
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: use you in a unique way. You're not going to
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: be like your mama. You're not going to be like
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: your daddy. You're not going to be like your grandpa.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: God said you're not going to have a leader. You're
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: going to set the pace. You're going to set the pace.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: You're going to blaze the trail. Other people are going
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: to follow behind you. You're going to be.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: The head and not the tail. Above and not beneath.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: Say yeah! Say yeah! Say yeah!
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: But I want to show you something. Sit down, sit down.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: Y'all keep jumping up and.
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: Sitting down. See, the Lord walked past the elephant and
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: the lion and the buffalo.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: And the leopard, and the rhino, and the rhinoceros, and
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: the giraffe, and the orangutan, and the monkey, and the fox,
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: and the rabbit, and the frog. And way down in
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: the bushes, he found a little creature that looks like
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: the grasshopper. He's similar to the grasshopper. He's in the
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: family of the grasshopper. He is a locust. He is
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: a straight-winged insect. He's a straight wing, straight narrow winged insect.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: And by all rights, you must understand something about the locust.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Though he travels for miles, though he travels for miles,
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: though he travels for miles, he can't fly. His wings
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: are too narrow for him to fly.
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: But he can travel for miles through.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: The air, but he can't fly. And you see, if
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: you're looking at his wings, you'll never see his strength.
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: For his strength is not in his wings. His strength
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: is in his legs. He can't fly, but he can jump.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: So number three is propel yourself. And you learn how
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: to propel yourself from the locust. The locust could lay
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: around and say, I can't fly and give up and quit.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: But the locust says, I can't fly, but I can jump.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: The locust can jump 200 times his height. And when
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: he gets ready to go somewhere, he propels himself. I
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: want somebody who's in trouble to touch a neighbor and say,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: I'm going to jump out of this mess.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: I'm coming out fast. I'm coming out quick. I'm not
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: going to wait. I'm not going to take a long time.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: I'm going to jump out of this mess. I'm coming
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: out in a quickness. I'm going to propel myself. Somebody
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: just jump a minute.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: Now, wait a minute.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Wait a minute.
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: I got to preach some more. Sit down, sit down.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: I got to show you something. Y'all thought I was lost.
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: I was never lost. I know where I'm going.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: It's going to be some jumpers in here. Just when
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: the enemy thought he had you, you're going to propel yourself.
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: The devil was looking at your wings and saying you
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: don't have much wings. The devil was looking at your money,
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: saying she ain't got much money.
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: The devil was looking at your education, saying you don't
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: have much education.
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: The devil was looking at your age, saying you waited
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: too late. But the devil was looking in.
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: The wrong spot.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: So what the locust does, he propels himself. But the
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: answer is not just in him jumping. It's when he jumps.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: The locust is so smart that he waits till the
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: wind blows.
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: And when the locusts Hears.
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: The rustling in the tops of the trees and he
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: can tell that it's a great gust of wind. All
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: the locust has to do is jump up into the wind,
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: and the wind will carry the locust for miles.
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: And the Lord sent me here.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: To tell you that your wind is about to blow.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: And if you.
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: Jump right now, hey, the power.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: Touch three people.
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: Touch three people and tell them the wind is blowing.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: The wind is blowing. The wind is blowing.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: The wind is blowing.
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: The wind is blowing. The wind is blowing.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: The wind is blowing. The wind is blowing. The wind
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: is blowing. The wind is blowing. The wind is blowing.
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: The wind is blowing. The wind is blowing.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: The wind is blowing. Where my locusts at? Locusts, just
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: wait on the wind. And when the wind blows, propel yourself. Now,
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: can I tell you something? Locusts, When the wind blows. See,
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: I almost don't want to even get into this. But
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: my Bible scholars understand that when I talk about the wind,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: the wind is the Holy Ghost.
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: For the Bible said.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: That Jesus said that the spirit is like a wind
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: for it bloweth where it missed us and we know
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: not from whence.
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: It came and yet we.
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: Experience where it's going and in the book of Acts
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: it said suddenly there came a sound from heaven like
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: a mountain rushing So what it means, what it means,
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: when the Holy Ghost moves, where you couldn't fly by yourself,
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: if you leap into the anointing, the wisdom of the locust,
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: the wisdom of the locust is that the locust knows
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: that the wind will blow it for miles. Watch this, y'all,
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: watch this. Here's the only problem. The locust cannot navigate
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: where he goes. The locust cannot fly against the wind.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: The locust cannot chart his own course, nor can he
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: change the direction. The locust is dependent upon the wind.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: And wherever the wind blows, that's where the locust goes.
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: And the Lord said, if you want to be blessed
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: this year, you got to propel yourself into the wind.
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: And wherever the wind.
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: Blows, that's where.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: You got to go. Hit your neighbor and say, stop
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: flying against the wind. Where my locusts at? The wind
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: blows the locusts from miles. Listen to this. I have
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: a word from God for you. If you will learn
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: the sermon of the locusts and only leap when the
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: wind blows. The next wind that comes by you is
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: going to blow you completely out of the situation you've
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: been into. It's going to take you into the next dimension.
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: And the Lord sent me here to tell you that
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: when the locust gets in the wind, he travels without struggle.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: He travels without stress because it is not the flapping
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: of his wings. That gets him there. It is the
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: power of the wind. And the Lord said, you've been
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: flapping your wings and wearing yourself down, trying to propel
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: yourself through your own strength. But all you got to
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: do is leap high enough to get in the wind
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: of God's spirit. And when God's spirit begins to blow,
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: as it begins to blow, it's going to blow you
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: into success. It's going to blow you into your money.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: It's going to blow you into your healing. It's going
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: to blow you into your husband. It's going to blow
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: you into your wife. It's going to blow you into
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: your calling. It's going to blow you into your future.
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: It's going to blow you into your ministry. You don't
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: have to make a name for yourself. All you got
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: to do is propel yourself. Into the wind.
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: Throw your hands up and say, into the wind I go.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Into the wind I go.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: Into the wind I go. Into the wind I go.
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: Open your mouth and begin to praise him right now.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Praise him. Praise him. Listen, church, I noticed something. I
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: noticed something periodically, periodically in my life. Something would hit.
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: And for the next several years, all I had to
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: do was go with the flow. All I had to
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: do was go with the flow. People wouldn't even believe it.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: They'll think you did something. But I knew that my
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: wings were too small to travel this far. So it
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: couldn't be me flapping that got me here. It had
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: to be the wind I was in. And if you're
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: going to be blessed, you've got to get that ability
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: to recognize the wind. Check this out. Check this out.
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: What you're listening for, you're not listening for CNN. You're
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: not listening for the change in the stock market. You're
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: not listening to the news at the barbershop. You're listening
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: for the wind. And when you hear the wind, That's
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: when you start positioning yourself to propel yourself. Now watch this.
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: If the wind blows and you don't jump, you miss it.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: It means God was doing something, but you were too
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: low to get it. And there are some people in
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: the room. It's not that God wasn't moving. It was
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: that you never propelled yourself into the presence of God.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: And you think that the enemy is fighting you, but
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: it is not the enemy that's fighting you. It is
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: because you haven't heard the voice of the locusts. You've
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: never learned to propel yourself. Let me show you something.
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: Let me show you something. I'm feeling something. For everything,
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: there is a purpose, a season, and a time. A
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: purpose that's eternal, that deals with what God eternally had
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: in mind to occur in your life. A season is
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: your window to do it. Your time deals with earth
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: and it is something that you have to do. You
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: have to know when it's time to do what. You
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: can't control the season and you didn't set the purpose.
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: But the timing issue is something that you have to.
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: Have.
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: Timing. Thank you.
• 57:11
  Speaker 4: Look into my.
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: Face.
• 57:37
  Speaker 3: It's my time.
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: It's my time. now let me show you something let
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: me show you something hold it a minute see let
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: me show you something we were singing a while ago
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: and i saw this brother clapping and he was clapping
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: all off the beat i mean he was having a
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: good time but he was completely off the beat And
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: the problem with that is you can't teach somebody timing.
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: Timing is something you have to sense.
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: If you can't sense it, you will miss it. This
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: is why the enemy sends sin in your life to
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: dull your senses so that you can't feel the time.
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: The devil can't stop your purpose. He can't stop your season,
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: but he tries to mess with your time so that
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: you're doing the right thing at the wrong time or
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: the wrong thing at the right time. And when it's
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: time for you to be moving ahead, you're stuck doing
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: the wrong thing. It wasn't that the brother wasn't clapping,
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: it's just that he was clapping at the wrong time.
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: He had his hands together when they should have been
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: apart and he had them apart when they should have
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: been together. Check this out. There's somebody in this room.
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: Your wind is blowing. Your wind is blowing. Your purpose
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: is set. Your season is here, but your sin has
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: dulled your senses and you cannot feel the time. So
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: when it is a time that you should be teachers,
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: you have need that someone teach you. When it is
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: a time that you should be leading the way, you're
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: falling apart because sin has dulled your senses. And something
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: in you has to say, I cannot let this sin
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: make me miss my time.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 3: Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: Hear me good. Hear me good. I don't want you
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: to be like the masses of people who go to
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: church for years and applaud their leaders for their leader
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: sense of time but the people never develop their own
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: sense of time and they miss their season because every
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: time the wind blows they're.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: Too low to travel as far.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: As God wants to take them to receive what God
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: has for them When you hear the wind blow, you
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: have to lock down everything. Until you have made up
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: in your mind, I will let nothing separate me. Not
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: this time. I've missed my time before, but not this time.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: I've made mistakes before, but not this time.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 3: I don't want to.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: Spend my life wishing I had done something that I
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: didn't get to do. Not because God wasn't ready, but
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: because I missed my time. Some of you are angry
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: and bitter with people right now. And the reason you're
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: bitter is because you miss your time. You have the
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: spirit of Saul. Saul tried to kill David because Saul
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: missed his time. David was only getting what Saul already had,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: but Saul missed his time. For when the wind was blowing,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: Saul was too low. Listen at this, my brothers and sisters.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: This is the wisdom of the locusts. The locust knows
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: when to jump. If the locusts were in a meeting
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: like this and the spirit was this high and the
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: excitement was this strong, the locusts would know that no
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: man can call a revival and the wind blow this strong.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: The locusts would know that only God can cause the
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: wind to blow this strong until people come.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: Out in masses.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: When I looked out on the parking lot, people had
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: filled up the parking lot. They were parked on the
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: side of the road. My staff told me one lady
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: left her keys in the car, leaped out the car,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: running in the service.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: No man, no man can.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: Do those things. It's only when God sends a wind
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: I came to tell this church that the wind is blowing.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: The wind is blowing. And if you would jump now,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: the thing that you couldn't do before, if you would
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: jump now, if you would jump right now, you could
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: jump out of habits and yokes and bondages and strongholds
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: in your life because.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: The wind is blowing.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: When the wind blows, drugs can't hold you. When the
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: wind blows, crack can't hold you. When the wind blows,
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: cigarettes can't hold you. When the wind blows, lovers can't
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: hold you. When the wind blows, your deepest sin cannot
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: hold you. When the wind blows, doubt and fear cannot
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: hold you. I came to tell you this is all
• 1:04:00
