- 0:12Speaker 1: So we, like cars, get out of alignment. And we
- 0:17Speaker 1: need to be tuned up and brought into alignment. Because
- 0:21Speaker 1: if we're not into alignment, life becomes difficult. Simple things
- 0:25Speaker 1: become hard. There are four different things that they brought
- 0:29Speaker 1: out that I think are really important. Number one, when
- 0:32Speaker 1: your car is aligned, it reduces tire wear. Provides maximum
- 0:37Speaker 1: tire life. In other words, your tires don't give out
- 0:39Speaker 1: as quickly. That's true about your car. That might be
- 0:42Speaker 1: true about your life too. Enhances fuel economy. It doesn't
- 0:47Speaker 1: take as much when you're in alignment as it does
- 0:51Speaker 1: when you're out of alignment. When you're out of alignment,
- 0:55Speaker 1: you burn more gas. Just a little tweak, just a
- 0:59Speaker 1: little twist, just a little turn can save fuel if
- 1:02Speaker 1: you're in alignment. I wonder if that's true about life.
- 1:07Speaker 1: The third thing, it improves handling. It's easier to steer
- 1:11Speaker 1: and to handle when the wheels are in alignment. When
- 1:14Speaker 1: they're out of alignment, things get out of control really quickly,
- 1:18Speaker 1: really easily because you're not in alignment. And number four,
- 1:22Speaker 1: it increases driving safety. It's the only safe place for
- 1:29Speaker 1: you as a believer is in alignment with God. And
- 1:36Speaker 1: if you're not in alignment with God, that's why everything
- 1:39Speaker 1: is wearing you out. You're tired. You're wearing out. You're
- 1:45Speaker 1: falling out. You're giving up. If you're not in alignment
- 1:48Speaker 1: with God, you find yourself in a situation where it's
- 1:53Speaker 1: just costing you more to do simple things because you're
- 1:57Speaker 1: out of alignment. And God can steer you when you're
- 2:01Speaker 1: in alignment. But when you're out of alignment, it's difficult
- 2:05Speaker 1: for you to steer. You hear the word, but then
- 2:08Speaker 1: acting on the word, you're out of alignment. You really
- 2:11Speaker 1: don't flow into it well. And I thought it was
- 2:13Speaker 1: a good illustration for what we're going to do tonight.
- 2:16Speaker 1: So Holy Spirit, as we embark upon this class tonight,
- 2:21Speaker 1: bring us into divine alignment and Bring us into supernatural
- 2:26Speaker 1: anointed alignment so that we can be perfected and do
- 2:30Speaker 1: the things you called us to do. In Jesus' name
- 2:33Speaker 1: we pray. Somebody shout amen. Somebody say bring me into alignment. Oh,
- 2:41Speaker 1: you said it now. Let's go to 1 Samuel chapter
- 2:44Speaker 1: 16 verse 3 through 12. And we're going to pick
- 2:47Speaker 1: up in the same text that I started Sunday, but
- 2:50Speaker 1: we're going a little bit deeper and a little bit
- 2:52Speaker 1: further and a little bit wider. Are you ready? Invite
- 2:56Speaker 1: Jesse to the sacrifice and I will show you what
- 3:00Speaker 1: to do. You are to anoint for me the one
- 3:04Speaker 1: I indicate. Samuel did what the Lord said when he
- 3:09Speaker 1: arrived at Bethlehem. The elders of the town trembled when
- 3:14Speaker 1: they met him. They asked, do you come in peace?
- 3:17Speaker 1: Samuel replied, yes, in peace. I have come to sacrifice
- 3:21Speaker 1: to the Lord. Consecrate yourselves and come to the sacrifice
- 3:25Speaker 1: with me. Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons and
- 3:30Speaker 1: invited them to the sacrifice. When they arrived, Samuel saw
- 3:36Speaker 1: Eliab and thought, surely the Lord's anointed stands here before
- 3:42Speaker 1: the Lord. But the Lord said to Samuel, don't consider
- 3:47Speaker 1: his appearance or his height. See, Eliab was real tall.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Saul was real tall. He looked like a good replacement.
- 3:56Speaker 1: But God said, I don't care about how tall he is.
- 3:59Speaker 1: For I have rejected him. The Lord does not look
- 4:02Speaker 1: at the things people look at. People look at the
- 4:06Speaker 1: outward appearance. But the Lord looks at the heart. Ooh,
- 4:13Speaker 1: that's good right there. I got to stop a minute
- 4:15Speaker 1: right there. Whatever you show in God, if it doesn't
- 4:17Speaker 1: come from a heart place. It's not going to move God.
- 4:21Speaker 1: It might move people, but it won't move God. If
- 4:23Speaker 1: it's a head place and not a heart place, if
- 4:27Speaker 1: it's a scheme, if it's a strategy, but it doesn't
- 4:30Speaker 1: come from a sincere place, it might move people, but
- 4:33Speaker 1: it does not move God. Then Jesse called Abinadab and
- 4:38Speaker 1: had him pass in front of Samuel, but Samuel said,
- 4:41Speaker 1: the Lord has not chosen this one either. Jesse then
- 4:45Speaker 1: had Shammah pass by, but Samuel said, nor has the
- 4:48Speaker 1: Lord chosen this one. Jesse had seven of his sons,
- 4:53Speaker 1: somebody say seven, pass before Samuel, but the Lord, but
- 4:57Speaker 1: Samuel said to him, the Lord has not chosen these.
- 5:02Speaker 1: So he asked Jesse, are these all the sons you have?
- 5:08Speaker 1: There is still the youngest, Jesse answered. He is tending
- 5:12Speaker 1: the sheep. Samuel said, send for him. We will not
- 5:17Speaker 1: sit down until he arrives. Ooh, glory to God. God's
- 5:22Speaker 1: getting ready to send for somebody. Somebody that's been overlooked
- 5:28Speaker 1: and ignored and ostracized and alienated and they didn't think
- 5:33Speaker 1: you were good enough or big enough or tall enough
- 5:36Speaker 1: or bright enough or smart enough. God's getting ready to
- 5:39Speaker 1: send for you. Glory to God. And Samuel said, we're
- 5:43Speaker 1: not even going to sit down until he gets here.
- 5:45Speaker 1: So he sent for him and had him brought in.
- 5:48Speaker 1: Watch this. He was glowing with health and had a
- 5:50Speaker 1: fine appearance and handsome features. Then the Lord said, rise
- 5:54Speaker 1: and anoint him. This is the one. Somebody shout, I'm
- 5:58Speaker 1: the one. My God, my God, my God. You may
- 6:03Speaker 1: be seated. Let's get to work on this thing. There's
- 6:06Speaker 1: so much here. I don't hardly even know where to begin.
- 6:09Speaker 1: Shout hallelujah, somebody. Shout it again. Hallelujah. Doesn't it mean
- 6:16Speaker 1: something to be chosen by God? You will remember Sunday now.
- 6:21Speaker 1: When we left off Sunday, we were talking about Samuel
- 6:25Speaker 1: weeping and mourning, and we were talking about a heart
- 6:28Speaker 1: full of grief and a horn full of oil. And
- 6:31Speaker 1: when we left off, Samuel was in a place of crushing.
- 6:36Speaker 1: Crushing places in life. always proceed amongst the faithful they
- 6:43Speaker 1: always proceed an anointing coming in your life because you
- 6:50Speaker 1: can't get oil without disruption you cannot extract oil out
- 6:57Speaker 1: of the olive and leave the olive intact it is
- 7:02Speaker 1: the crushing places in our life I know you don't
- 7:05Speaker 1: like them I don't like them either I don't want them.
- 7:07Speaker 1: I don't ask for them. I don't pray for them.
- 7:09Speaker 1: I don't get up and get on my knees and say, Lord,
- 7:12Speaker 1: crush me today. Anybody pray that prayer? Lord, I want
- 7:17Speaker 1: to go through something crushing and painful and hurtful.
- 7:20Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no.
- 7:21Speaker 1: I don't want to go through any of that. But
- 7:23Speaker 1: every so often we go through crushing places in life.
- 7:26Speaker 1: And Samuel is in a place of crushing. And he
- 7:29Speaker 1: was in a place of crushing and mourning and grief
- 7:32Speaker 1: over Saul, whom God had rejected. Now, it helps you
- 7:37Speaker 1: to understand that Israel did not come from a background
- 7:41Speaker 1: of having kings in the first place. In fact, they
- 7:44Speaker 1: had judges, hence we have the book of Judges, before
- 7:48Speaker 1: they had kings because God considered himself to be their king.
- 7:53Speaker 1: But when they looked at all the other people, And
- 7:56Speaker 1: they saw all the other nations had kings. They said,
- 8:00Speaker 1: give us a king like the other nations. So this
- 8:03Speaker 1: king Saul was born out of the people's will. It
- 8:10Speaker 1: was born out of the people's will. Have you ever
- 8:12Speaker 1: done something that was born out of your will? And
- 8:15Speaker 1: then you got in trouble and you asked God to
- 8:17Speaker 1: bless it. But God is not in your life to
- 8:22Speaker 1: bless your will. He wants to bring you into alignment
- 8:25Speaker 1: with his will. And so it ends up in a
- 8:29Speaker 1: debacle and a mess because it was never what God
- 8:34Speaker 1: really intended to happen in the first place. We see
- 8:38Speaker 1: the crushing place and then we hear God talking about
- 8:41Speaker 1: the oil. We see Samuel weeping, and then we see
- 8:45Speaker 1: him holding up a horn full of oil. And God
- 8:48Speaker 1: says to the weeping prophet, how long will you weep
- 8:52Speaker 1: for who I rejected? I have found a man after
- 8:56Speaker 1: my own heart. And he says, get up and fill
- 8:59Speaker 1: your horn with oil and go. He brings him out
- 9:03Speaker 1: of the weeping place. Throughout scriptures, you'll see the weeping
- 9:06Speaker 1: place over and over again. Like when Jesus goes to
- 9:09Speaker 1: the garden of Gethsemane, it is the crushing place. It
- 9:12Speaker 1: is the weeping place. It is the place in life
- 9:15Speaker 1: that proceeds the cross. Gethsemane literally means oil press. So
- 9:21Speaker 1: I believe, I believe that what happened to Jesus at
- 9:26Speaker 1: Gethsemane is equally as important as what happened to him
- 9:30Speaker 1: on Calvary. Let me show you. Because first of all,
- 9:37Speaker 1: there wouldn't have been a Calvary if he didn't go
- 9:40Speaker 1: through Gethsemane. Gethsemane was the place where he brought his will, Saul,
- 9:48Speaker 1: in alignment with God's will, David. That place in your
- 9:54Speaker 1: life where you go and he tries to bring the
- 9:57Speaker 1: disciples with him and he tries to get the inner circle.
- 10:00Speaker 1: to go with him. But when you're in a certain
- 10:02Speaker 1: state with God, you can't invite company. Everybody that likes
- 10:09Speaker 1: you doesn't like where you're at and they can't handle
- 10:11Speaker 1: where you're at and they can't deal with where you're at.
- 10:14Speaker 1: And everybody that you like, you can't bring them because
- 10:17Speaker 1: you like them. I have learned over the years that
- 10:21Speaker 1: just because I like somebody doesn't mean that I can
- 10:23Speaker 1: bring them into alignment with God's purpose and God's will
- 10:27Speaker 1: for my life. They fall asleep. And you can always
- 10:30Speaker 1: tell when you brought the wrong person because they fall
- 10:34Speaker 1: asleep They give out on you. They're not really with you.
- 10:42Speaker 1: They don't really connect with you. Peter, James, and John
- 10:45Speaker 1: have fallen asleep and Jesus has gone on a little further.
- 10:48Speaker 1: And we're going to talk a little bit about that
- 10:50Speaker 1: tonight because I want you to begin to get in
- 10:52Speaker 1: your mind and in your heart and in your spirit
- 10:55Speaker 1: that God loves you no less when you're crushed than
- 11:00Speaker 1: he does when you're anointed. God doesn't love you any
- 11:04Speaker 1: less because you're in a painful place. God doesn't love
- 11:08Speaker 1: you any less because you're going through a place where
- 11:11Speaker 1: your emotions are all in an upheaval and your life
- 11:15Speaker 1: is in turmoil. That doesn't mean that God's favor has
- 11:18Speaker 1: left you, that he loves you less, that he's not
- 11:21Speaker 1: going to accomplish his purpose. Was Jesus any less God
- 11:25Speaker 1: in Gethsemane than he was in the resurrection? Absolutely not.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Absolutely not. He was out there praying until he bled
- 11:37Speaker 1: out of his sweat glands. And yet, yet, yet, he
- 11:41Speaker 1: was still God. And he wrestles in the will to
- 11:44Speaker 1: bring his will into alignment. Because when your will is
- 11:48Speaker 1: out of alignment and you've got two different voices and
- 11:52Speaker 1: you're double-minded and you're halt between two opinions, there's more
- 11:55Speaker 1: wear and tear on your life. You go to bed tired,
- 11:59Speaker 1: you get up tired. You lay down tired, you rise
- 12:02Speaker 1: up tired. You just slept eight hours and you're still
- 12:05Speaker 1: tired because you're wrestling all in your sleep because you
- 12:08Speaker 1: don't have alignment. You don't have alignment, so you develop
- 12:12Speaker 1: all kinds of disorders and excessive behavior and compulsive disorders
- 12:17Speaker 1: and start medicating, self-medicating, disalignment. Well, what you really need
- 12:22Speaker 1: is to come into a place where you say, not
- 12:25Speaker 1: my will, but thine be done. When you start talking
- 12:28Speaker 1: like that, demons tremble and hell gets nervous because the
- 12:32Speaker 1: devil knows when you come into alignment, God is going
- 12:36Speaker 1: to do something amazing in your life and And the
- 12:38Speaker 1: oil is going to flow. It's not going to leak.
- 12:41Speaker 1: It's not going to drip. It's not going to drop.
- 12:44Speaker 1: It's going to flow into your life. Are you hearing
- 12:47Speaker 1: what I'm saying to you? Look at the gospel of St.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Mark chapter 14, verse 32 for a minute. We're going
- 12:52Speaker 1: to start there. And we're going to take a look
- 12:55Speaker 1: at verse 32 through 43. They went to a place
- 13:00Speaker 1: called Gethsemane, and Jesus said to his disciples, sit here
- 13:03Speaker 1: while I pray. He took Peter, James, and John along
- 13:06Speaker 1: with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled.
- 13:12Speaker 1: My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death.
- 13:17Speaker 1: He almost sounds like Samuel did. My soul is overwhelmed
- 13:22Speaker 1: with sorrow to the point of death. He said to them,
- 13:25Speaker 1: stay here and keep watch. Going a little farther, he
- 13:29Speaker 1: fell to the ground and prayed that if it be possible,
- 13:32Speaker 1: the hour might pass from him. Is there a way
- 13:36Speaker 1: I can get out of this? Abba, Father, he said,
- 13:40Speaker 1: everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Now watch him come into alignment. Yet, not what I will,
- 13:49Speaker 1: but what you will. Coming into alignment. Have you come
- 13:54Speaker 1: into alignment yet? that you've given up on what you
- 13:57Speaker 1: had in mind, and you said, God, I reject what
- 14:01Speaker 1: I had in mind, and I'm open to what you
- 14:03Speaker 1: want to do in my life, even if I have
- 14:05Speaker 1: to move, if I have to change, even if I
- 14:08Speaker 1: have to downsize, if it's less money, if it's less friends,
- 14:12Speaker 1: if it's less glamour, if it's less this and less that. See,
- 14:15Speaker 1: it's easy to align with God as long as God
- 14:19Speaker 1: is asking you to do what you want to do anyway.
- 14:23Speaker 1: It is much more difficult when God's will leads you
- 14:26Speaker 1: into something that is against what you had in mind.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Are you hearing what I'm saying? Oh, come on, somebody.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. Simon,
- 14:38Speaker 1: he said to Peter, are you asleep? Couldn't you watch
- 14:41Speaker 1: for one hour? Watch and pray so that you will
- 14:44Speaker 1: not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, he says,
- 14:49Speaker 1: but the flesh not. The flesh is what? The flesh
- 14:54Speaker 1: is what? The flesh is what? Now the spirit is
- 14:58Speaker 1: and the flesh is. The spirit is and the flesh is.
- 15:04Speaker 1: The spirit is and the flesh is. Willing and weak
- 15:10Speaker 1: are in a fight here. Willing and weak are in
- 15:15Speaker 1: a fight to see who's going to drive the narrative
- 15:18Speaker 1: of what is going on in the Garden of Gethsemane,
- 15:22Speaker 1: in the pressing place. In the pressing place, willing and
- 15:27Speaker 1: weak are in a fight. Once more, he went away
- 15:31Speaker 1: and prayed the same thing. Now, if Jesus had to
- 15:34Speaker 1: pray three times, this once a week praying you've been
- 15:38Speaker 1: doing is not going to work, sweetheart. Jesus had to
- 15:42Speaker 1: pray three times to bring himself into alignment so that
- 15:48Speaker 1: he was talking right and thinking right and saying the
- 15:52Speaker 1: right things. Because when he first started praying, he was praying,
- 15:56Speaker 1: but he was praying to have his way. And then
- 15:59Speaker 1: he surrenders to the alignment of bringing his will into
- 16:04Speaker 1: alignment with God's will, the Father's will, and what he
- 16:08Speaker 1: had in mind for his life. Even though it didn't
- 16:10Speaker 1: seem pleasant, even though it didn't seem good, even though
- 16:13Speaker 1: it wasn't what he had in mind, even though there
- 16:15Speaker 1: was a dark cloud over it, even though it was tempestuous,
- 16:19Speaker 1: even though it included betrayal. even though it included denial,
- 16:24Speaker 1: even though it included suffering, even though it included public humiliation. Ultimately,
- 16:30Speaker 1: he says, I would better be aligned with God even
- 16:33Speaker 1: if I'm out of line with people, even if I
- 16:36Speaker 1: don't fit in with the group. Even if the Sanhedrins
- 16:39Speaker 1: reject me. Even if the Pharisees laugh. Even if it
- 16:43Speaker 1: looks like the Sadducees won. I'd rather be in alignment
- 16:46Speaker 1: with God. Even if I'm out of alignment with my disciples.
- 16:50Speaker 1: I'd rather be in alignment with God. Even if I'm
- 16:53Speaker 1: out of alignment with my job. I want to be
- 16:55Speaker 1: in alignment with God, even if it carries me away
- 16:58Speaker 1: from my degree. I want to be in alignment with God,
- 17:01Speaker 1: even if I have to cry myself to sleep. I
- 17:03Speaker 1: want to be in alignment with God, even if I
- 17:06Speaker 1: spend some lonely nights. I don't want to be out
- 17:08Speaker 1: of alignment with God. I can't afford the wear and
- 17:11Speaker 1: tear it places on my tires, on my soul, on
- 17:15Speaker 1: my life. on my spirit, on my children, on my family,
- 17:19Speaker 1: on my ministry. It costs me too much. I've got
- 17:23Speaker 1: too many hills to climb. I've got too many valleys
- 17:26Speaker 1: to go through. I've got too many turns to make.
- 17:29Speaker 1: If I don't have nobody on my side but God,
- 17:33Speaker 1: I can make it. I can make it without Peter.
- 17:36Speaker 1: I can make it without James. I can make it
- 17:39Speaker 1: without John. But I cannot make it without God. I
- 17:42Speaker 1: need God's alignment in my life or I cannot make it.
- 17:48Speaker 1: When he came back, he again found them sleeping because
- 17:52Speaker 1: their eyes were heavy. They kept falling asleep. They did
- 17:55Speaker 1: not know what to say to him. Returning the third time,
- 17:59Speaker 1: he said to himself, are you still sleeping and resting? Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough, enough.
- 18:08Speaker 1: You can't help me with this. The hour has come. Look,
- 18:16Speaker 1: the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Rise and let us go. Here comes my betrayer. The
- 18:28Speaker 1: Garden of Gethsemane is so important. Just as he was speaking, Judas,
- 18:32Speaker 1: one of the 12, appeared. With him was a crowd
- 18:36Speaker 1: armed with swords and clubs sent from the chief priests,
- 18:39Speaker 1: the teachers of the law, and the elders. God knew
- 18:46Speaker 1: this moment was coming. And Jesus, in order to endure
- 18:51Speaker 1: the sufferings of the cross, had to be in an
- 18:54Speaker 1: alignment with his father. There are certain things that are
- 18:57Speaker 1: going on in your life right now that you just
- 19:00Speaker 1: can't drive through because you're out of alignment. You have
- 19:03Speaker 1: to get into alignment with God. Alignment is everything. Hell
- 19:08Speaker 1: hates alignment. The enemy doesn't want you to be aligned
- 19:12Speaker 1: with God. He will do anything to keep you out
- 19:15Speaker 1: of alignment. Because when you get into alignment, you don't
- 19:19Speaker 1: have to wrestle to be anointed. The anointing will flow
- 19:23Speaker 1: wherever the alignment occurs. Oh God, you didn't hear me.
- 19:27Speaker 1: The anointing will flow. wherever the alignment occurs. You don't
- 19:31Speaker 1: have to wrestle with it. You don't have to struggle
- 19:33Speaker 1: with it. You don't need cheerleaders and pom-poms and people
- 19:37Speaker 1: jumping around trying to get you to praise God. When
- 19:40Speaker 1: you get into alignment, there is an anointing that flows
- 19:44Speaker 1: automatically just because you are in alignment. That's why the enemy,
- 19:49Speaker 1: if he can't stop you from being anointed, he wants
- 19:52Speaker 1: to stop you from being in place. Because if you're
- 19:58Speaker 1: not in the right place, you're not going to get
- 20:00Speaker 1: the right flow. And he'll do anything to disrupt you.
- 20:03Speaker 1: He'll let somebody say something smart or roll their eyes
- 20:06Speaker 1: or look at you funny or make you think that
- 20:08Speaker 1: they're talking about you. And all of a sudden, you
- 20:10Speaker 1: got an attitude. And you change churches again. And you
- 20:13Speaker 1: change husbands again. And you change wives again. And you
- 20:17Speaker 1: change clothes again. And you change your hair again. Now
- 20:20Speaker 1: you're a brooding head. Now you're a redhead. Keep changing
- 20:23Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff. And what you really need to
- 20:25Speaker 1: change is rebellion and come into alignment with God. Because
- 20:30Speaker 1: when you're in alignment with God, yokes are broken. Walls
- 20:35Speaker 1: come down. Chains are crushed. Doors are opened. Healings occur.
- 20:41Speaker 1: Breakthroughs flow when you're in alignment with God. Somebody throw
- 20:47Speaker 1: your hands up and say, bring me into alignment. I
- 20:50Speaker 1: want to be in alignment. I don't even want to
- 20:53Speaker 1: argue with you if it takes me out of alignment.
- 20:55Speaker 1: There's nothing you did to me so bad that I'm
- 20:58Speaker 1: willing to lose my alignment to fool around and get
- 21:01Speaker 1: even with you. Sometimes the enemy will cause a rift
- 21:05Speaker 1: between us on this level so that we don't have
- 21:08Speaker 1: alignment because hell hates alignment. When we're in agreement, yokes
- 21:13Speaker 1: are broken and bondages are destroyed. When we're out of agreement, well,
- 21:18Speaker 1: just look at Washington. All you got to do is
- 21:24Speaker 1: get people out of alignment and everything shuts down because
- 21:27Speaker 1: you're out of alignment. In order to be in alignment,
- 21:31Speaker 1: sometimes you have to hold your peace. Sometimes you don't
- 21:35Speaker 1: respond to people. Sometimes you don't get to say everything
- 21:38Speaker 1: you want to say. But the Bible said, We talked
- 21:46Speaker 1: a lot about holiness down through the years, but some
- 21:49Speaker 1: of the most hateful people were preaching about holiness. They
- 21:53Speaker 1: had a lot to say about holiness. and nothing to
- 21:55Speaker 1: say about following peace. They didn't understand that following peace
- 22:00Speaker 1: brings you into alignment. When you are in alignment, the
- 22:03Speaker 1: Holy Spirit will come. Acts said they were in one
- 22:07Speaker 1: place with one accord. Suddenly there came a sound from heaven.
- 22:11Speaker 1: They weren't waiting on God. God was waiting on them.
- 22:14Speaker 1: When they got into alignment, the Holy Spirit fell on
- 22:17Speaker 1: them in a supernatural way. I don't know who I'm
- 22:21Speaker 1: talking to today, but whatever your riff is, whatever we're
- 22:25Speaker 1: beefing about, it's not even worthy to be compared to
- 22:28Speaker 1: what God will release even in this building right now,
- 22:32Speaker 1: even in your house, even in your marriage, even in
- 22:35Speaker 1: your ministry. If you come into alignment, God will open
- 22:39Speaker 1: up the windows of heaven and and pour you out
- 22:41Speaker 1: a blessing you don't have room enough to receive. But
- 22:44Speaker 1: God will not flow in confusion and discourse and chaos
- 22:50Speaker 1: and bickering and murmuring and complaining. He wants us in alignment.
- 22:57Speaker 1: He wants us in alignment. We have to come into
- 23:00Speaker 1: what the Bible calls agreement, which is alignment. We have
- 23:04Speaker 1: to come into agreement where we touch and agree. When
- 23:07Speaker 1: we touch and agree, God says whatever we ask, he
- 23:12Speaker 1: said I'll do it because you're in alignment. But if
- 23:16Speaker 1: you have ought against your brother, leave your gift at
- 23:19Speaker 1: the altar. Reconcile yourself with your brother and then come
- 23:23Speaker 1: and ask me for it. I will only do it
- 23:25Speaker 1: when you're in alignment. Oh, you're with me tonight. You're
- 23:29Speaker 1: with me tonight. I will only do it when you're
- 23:32Speaker 1: in alignment. So the enemy tricks you into fighting with
- 23:37Speaker 1: each other. And you feel like, well, at least I'm
- 23:39Speaker 1: not fighting God. But sometimes when you're fighting amongst yourselves,
- 23:43Speaker 1: you are fighting God's purpose in your life because God
- 23:47Speaker 1: will not move and confuse it. And the enemy wants
- 23:50Speaker 1: to make you need to prove that you're stronger than
- 23:54Speaker 1: somebody else. at the detriment of your destiny. Sometimes, what
- 23:58Speaker 1: does it matter to win the battle if you're going
- 24:01Speaker 1: to lose the war? Y'all aren't going to talk to me.
- 24:04Speaker 1: I'll talk to them all. What does it matter if
- 24:07Speaker 1: you win the battle and lose the war? You got
- 24:10Speaker 1: the last word in, but you forfeited your place of alignment.
- 24:16Speaker 1: Look at what God tells Hagar when Hagar gets mad
- 24:19Speaker 1: at Sarai and ups and leaves and she almost starves
- 24:23Speaker 1: to death in the desert. And God said, I have
- 24:26Speaker 1: given you provision in Sarai's house. Go back to Sarai.
- 24:31Speaker 1: and reconnect yourself in alignment. Your blessing is waiting for
- 24:35Speaker 1: you in a particular place, and you can't let your
- 24:39Speaker 1: emotions move you out of alignment so that you miss
- 24:42Speaker 1: your blessing. I don't know, but I feel like I'm
- 24:45Speaker 1: talking to somebody. I don't know who it is. Sometimes
- 24:48Speaker 1: you got to humble yourself. Sometimes you got to swallow
- 24:51Speaker 1: your pride, because the blessing has already got an address
- 24:56Speaker 1: on it, and you got to be at the right
- 24:58Speaker 1: place at the right time to get what God has
- 25:03Speaker 1: for you. Somebody shout, bring me into alignment. Go to
- 25:12Speaker 1: Psalms 133 for a minute, I'm going to show you
- 25:14Speaker 1: what'll happen if you get into alignment. Glory to God.
- 25:23Speaker 1: How good and pleasant it is when God's people live
- 25:26Speaker 1: together in unity. It is like the precious oil. Look
- 25:31Speaker 1: at that, unity. Next word, oil. It is like the
- 25:34Speaker 1: precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard,
- 25:39Speaker 1: running down on Aaron's beard, down on the collar of
- 25:43Speaker 1: his robe. It is like the dew of Hermon were
- 25:47Speaker 1: falling on Mount Zion, for there the Lord bestows His blessing,
- 25:52Speaker 1: even life evermore. If you're the beard or the skirt
- 25:56Speaker 1: of Aaron, all you have to do is be aligned.
- 25:59Speaker 1: You don't have to be anointed. Just be in your place,
- 26:02Speaker 1: because when God anoints the head— it's going to fall
- 26:05Speaker 1: in alignment. And everything that's in alignment is going to
- 26:09Speaker 1: get that anointing. And that's why the devil will try
- 26:11Speaker 1: to move you out of your place and get you
- 26:14Speaker 1: out of line because he sees what God is sending
- 26:17Speaker 1: and what's going to flow into your life if you're
- 26:20Speaker 1: in alignment and he doesn't want you to be in
- 26:22Speaker 1: the right place. And the Lord sent me here to
- 26:24Speaker 1: teach tonight to tell you this is the wrong time
- 26:27Speaker 1: to move. Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.
- 26:35Speaker 1: When the oil hits the head, if you're the beard,
- 26:37Speaker 1: this is the wrong time to move. You want to
- 26:40Speaker 1: be lined up with head so that you can flow
- 26:44Speaker 1: and it will hit you without effort. Somebody shout, it's
- 26:48Speaker 1: coming my way. That's why I want the head to
- 26:52Speaker 1: be blessed. I want my leaders to be blessed. Because
- 26:55Speaker 1: when I see the oil hit the head of my leader,
- 26:58Speaker 1: if I'm lined up with leadership, the same oil that's
- 27:02Speaker 1: on the head will be on the beard, will flow
- 27:05Speaker 1: to the skirts. It won't be diluted. It won't be polluted.
- 27:10Speaker 1: It will be the same exact oil. Bring me into alignment.
- 27:19Speaker 1: I want to be in alignment. Somebody shout alignment. The
- 27:25Speaker 1: creation in the book of Genesis makes it really, really clear.
- 27:28Speaker 1: It shows us the fruitfulness of alignment. When the Holy
- 27:31Speaker 1: Spirit comes into the chaotic world and begins to move
- 27:34Speaker 1: on the chaotic world, he does not say bring forth
- 27:37Speaker 1: until he has alignment, until he's separated the firmaments above
- 27:41Speaker 1: the waters. from the firmaments that were beneath the waters,
- 27:44Speaker 1: until he's put boundaries on the seas, until he's got
- 27:47Speaker 1: structure and order and alignment. And once he has alignment,
- 27:51Speaker 1: then he starts bringing fruit. Bring forth, and all of
- 27:54Speaker 1: a sudden fish begin to swim. Bring forth, and birds
- 27:58Speaker 1: begin to fly. Bring forth, and grass begin to grow.
- 28:01Speaker 1: God cannot give you what you're praying for until you
- 28:05Speaker 1: get in alignment. He's not going to give you vegetables
- 28:08Speaker 1: and mud. He's not going to give you fruitfulness in chaos.
- 28:15Speaker 1: He's not going to give you fruitfulness where there are
- 28:18Speaker 1: no boundaries. The first thing the Holy Spirit does is
- 28:21Speaker 1: bring alignment and then he commands fruitfulness to come out
- 28:25Speaker 1: of alignment. If it was true in Genesis, if it
- 28:32Speaker 1: was true in Gethsemane, if it was true on Calvary,
- 28:36Speaker 1: then it's true today. If it was true in Genesis,
- 28:41Speaker 1: if it was true in Psalms, if it was true
- 28:45Speaker 1: on Calvary, if it's true in this text, because God
- 28:49Speaker 1: says to Samuel, go to Bethlehem. Wait a minute. He says,
- 28:58Speaker 1: I have a king. I have found one after my heart.
- 29:05Speaker 1: The one you had was after your heart. That was
- 29:08Speaker 1: your will. Now I'm going to show you my will.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Go to Bethlehem. This is very, this text is so important.
- 29:21Speaker 1: I just wish I could teach good enough to make
- 29:24Speaker 1: you understand how important this text is. Because when God
- 29:28Speaker 1: says go to Bethlehem, Samuel is moving from the will
- 29:33Speaker 1: of the people to the will of God. He's having
- 29:38Speaker 1: a Gethsemane moment. And in order to have a Gethsemane moment,
- 29:43Speaker 1: he has to move into alignment. You can't get God
- 29:47Speaker 1: to do it where you are. Go to Bethlehem. Why
- 29:51Speaker 1: does he want him to go to Bethlehem? Oh little
- 29:55Speaker 1: town of Bethlehem, how still we see you lie. What
- 30:00Speaker 1: is that? Oh no, that's a Christmas song. Oh yeah, that's,
- 30:03Speaker 1: wrong time to sing that. Oh is it? Is this
- 30:09Speaker 1: not a dress rehearsal? Is this not a A dress rehearsal?
- 30:22Speaker 1: Is it a coincidence that God has said to Samuel,
- 30:25Speaker 1: go down to Bethlehem? Look at him bringing alignment. Because
- 30:32Speaker 1: it's about Bethlehem, baby. It's about Bethlehem. Everybody's headed for Bethlehem.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Ruth is headed for Bethlehem. Boaz is in Bethlehem. Now
- 30:43Speaker 1: Samuel again says, go down to Bethlehem. This is a
- 30:47Speaker 1: shadow that whatever God's going to do in the earth,
- 30:50Speaker 1: it's going to mean that we got to go to
- 30:52Speaker 1: Bethlehem because the glory of the Lord is coming to Bethlehem.
- 30:56Speaker 1: Go down to Bethlehem. Fill your horn with oil and
- 31:00Speaker 1: go to Bethlehem. Something that's going to happen in Bethlehem
- 31:04Speaker 1: is always about Bethlehem, a little town on the outskirts
- 31:08Speaker 1: of Jerusalem, not heavily populated, not extremely wealthy, not extremely impressive.
- 31:15Speaker 1: But God doesn't need you to be impressive with men
- 31:18Speaker 1: to be impressive with God. When God's got something for you,
- 31:22Speaker 1: He's going to do it in Bethlehem. You don't have
- 31:24Speaker 1: to be in a big city. He can do it
- 31:26Speaker 1: in a small town. You don't have to have a
- 31:29Speaker 1: big house. He can do it in your house. You
- 31:31Speaker 1: don't have to have a big name. He can do
- 31:33Speaker 1: it with your name. When I came up preaching, everybody
- 31:37Speaker 1: was talking about it. Everybody else, nobody was talking about
- 31:40Speaker 1: Jakes nowhere. Nobody knew who a Jakes was. But God
- 31:44Speaker 1: will reach out into a little town in the hills
- 31:47Speaker 1: of West Virginia and get a no-name boy that nobody
- 31:50Speaker 1: was thinking about. Because when God gets ready to raise
- 31:53Speaker 1: you up, He doesn't need the people to help you.
- 31:56Speaker 1: They can all go to sleep. But if God's got
- 31:58Speaker 1: something for you, go down to Bethlehem. I don't know
- 32:02Speaker 1: who I'm talking to tonight, but the Holy Spirit is
- 32:06Speaker 1: coming into your Bethlehem to do exceedingly abundantly above all
- 32:11Speaker 1: that you may ask or think. Go down. Get your
- 32:22Speaker 1: horn of oil and go down to Bethlehem. And all
- 32:26Speaker 1: of a sudden, now, now look at this. Look at this.
- 32:29Speaker 1: This is good. This is good. Look at this. He
- 32:32Speaker 1: was weeping for Saul being rejected as king, but Saul
- 32:37Speaker 1: is still alive. Even though Saul is alive, he is
- 32:43Speaker 1: mourning him as gone because he's not gone when he goes.
- 32:49Speaker 1: He's gone when God says it. Oh, y'all don't hear
- 32:55Speaker 1: what I'm saying. The Bible says, how long will you grieve?
- 33:00Speaker 1: How long will you mourn? How long will you be upset?
- 33:03Speaker 1: It's talking about Saul like he's dead. And Saul is
- 33:06Speaker 1: so much in charge that Samuel is afraid to go
- 33:10Speaker 1: to Bethlehem. Let Saul hear about it. So Saul is
- 33:14Speaker 1: alive physically. But spiritually, it's already done. That's why I
- 33:22Speaker 1: tell you Calvary was settled in the Garden of Gethsemane.
- 33:26Speaker 1: You don't have to wait till you see it happen
- 33:28Speaker 1: for it to be over. When God told Saul it
- 33:31Speaker 1: was over, it was over. When Jesus said, yes, not
- 33:35Speaker 1: my will but thine be done, Calvary was settled in
- 33:38Speaker 1: the Garden. The moment you say yes in your spirit,
- 33:42Speaker 1: it is already done. Amen. Go down, down, down, down. Down,
- 33:50Speaker 1: you're up too high. Go down, go down, go down
- 33:56Speaker 1: to Bethlehem. It's about Bethlehem. Bethlehem means a house of bread.
- 34:04Speaker 1: It's about the house of bread. It literally means a
- 34:07Speaker 1: house of bread. Over and over for the past few weeks,
- 34:11Speaker 1: I've been preaching texts that keep bringing us to Bethlehem.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Over and over we keep seeing Ruth and Naomi headed
- 34:19Speaker 1: for Bethlehem. Are you hearing what I'm saying to you?
- 34:23Speaker 1: Are you hearing what I'm saying to you? We come
- 34:26Speaker 1: to understand that Rachel gives birth on the way to Ephrata,
- 34:31Speaker 1: which is an Old Testament name for Bethlehem. And she
- 34:35Speaker 1: births Benjamin. She births Benjamin, causing Benoni on the way
- 34:41Speaker 1: to Bethlehem. And the Bible says they were just a
- 34:44Speaker 1: little ways from Ephrata. When she gave birth to the
- 34:48Speaker 1: child and gave up the ghost and they buried her
- 34:52Speaker 1: on the way to Bethlehem. Why does the Holy Spirit
- 34:56Speaker 1: keep pulling us back to Bethlehem? Arise and fill your
- 35:00Speaker 1: horn with oil and go down to Bethlehem. Something is
- 35:05Speaker 1: about to happen and it's not going to happen where
- 35:07Speaker 1: you're at. There's a shift coming. there's a shift there's
- 35:11Speaker 1: a shift coming I hereby prophesy and declare there is
- 35:16Speaker 1: a shift coming there's a move of glory there's a
- 35:19Speaker 1: transition going on there's a shift from the house of
- 35:23Speaker 1: Saul to the house of David God is getting ready
- 35:27Speaker 1: to do a new thing. God is getting ready to
- 35:30Speaker 1: start a new order. David wasn't even related to Saul,
- 35:35Speaker 1: but God's going to take someone that's not even connected
- 35:38Speaker 1: and raise it up and bless. You've been trying to
- 35:40Speaker 1: make connections. You don't need connections with nobody but God.
- 35:44Speaker 1: Once you connect with God, God's going to get it done.
- 35:49Speaker 1: Go down to Bethlehem. And invite Jesse to come out.
- 35:58Speaker 1: Invite Jesse and all of his sons to come out
- 36:01Speaker 1: and to be a part of this. And here Saul
- 36:06Speaker 1: goes with his horn filled with oil to anoint the
- 36:11Speaker 1: next king of Israel. To anoint. Let me stop there.
- 36:16Speaker 1: To anoint. The anointing doesn't come for your entertainment. The
- 36:25Speaker 1: anointing is for your enablement. God anoints you to do something,
- 36:33Speaker 1: to say something, to sing something, to perform something, to
- 36:38Speaker 1: accomplish something. God anoints you for his own purpose. God
- 36:42Speaker 1: is not anointing you so we can say, didn't we
- 36:45Speaker 1: have a time? I danced out of my shoes. We
- 36:48Speaker 1: have been spilling the oil. We've been spilling oil. Instead
- 36:56Speaker 1: of directing the oil at the devils that are trying
- 36:59Speaker 1: to take over your life, instead of directing the oil
- 37:03Speaker 1: to do spiritual warfare over the enemy and what he's
- 37:06Speaker 1: trying to do in your life, you've been just clapping
- 37:08Speaker 1: your hands and dancing. But when the anointing is real high,
- 37:12Speaker 1: that's the time to declare war on the enemy because
- 37:16Speaker 1: the anointing is the enablement of God to empower you
- 37:20Speaker 1: to rebuke cancer and demons and depression and suicide is broken.
- 37:33Speaker 1: Somebody holler, break it. The anointing comes to work. It
- 37:40Speaker 1: comes to function. It comes to do something. It doesn't
- 37:44Speaker 1: just come for your entertainment or for your enjoyment or
- 37:47Speaker 1: for your sensations or for your titillation or for you
- 37:50Speaker 1: to get goose pimples or for you to get chill bumps.
- 37:53Speaker 1: Whenever God sends an anointing in your life, He is
- 37:56Speaker 1: empowering you to do something. He's bringing you to a
- 38:00Speaker 1: place where you have power that is not your own.
- 38:03Speaker 1: For it's not by might nor by power, but by
- 38:06Speaker 1: my Spirit alone. Oh, I'm getting excited now. I better stop.
- 38:12Speaker 1: Whenever you see God sending an anointing on you, He's
- 38:15Speaker 1: enabling you to do what you could not do in
- 38:18Speaker 1: your own strength. The Bible said that when the enemy roared,
- 38:27Speaker 1: the Spirit of the Lord came upon Samson. When the
- 38:31Speaker 1: enemy roared, the Spirit of the Lord came upon Samson.
- 38:34Speaker 1: Because Samson in his own strength would have been defeated,
- 38:38Speaker 1: would have allowed the Philistines to defeat him. The lion
- 38:42Speaker 1: would have ate him for lunch. But when the anointing
- 38:45Speaker 1: came upon him, it was a great equalizer. When you
- 38:49Speaker 1: are anointed, you can take less and do more with it.
- 38:53Speaker 1: You can grab the jawbone of an ass. and kill 10,000
- 38:57Speaker 1: Philistines because you're anointed. All my anointed people, make some
- 39:02Speaker 1: noise in this place. There's a reason you're logged in tonight.
- 39:15Speaker 1: There's a reason you're watching this Bible class. There's a
- 39:17Speaker 1: reason that God is trying to teach you what he
- 39:20Speaker 1: has anointed you for. It's not about your title. It's
- 39:24Speaker 1: not so you can have some fancy cards. It's not
- 39:28Speaker 1: so that you can get more doors open to preach. here.
- 39:30Speaker 1: When the anointing has come upon you, it's so that
- 39:33Speaker 1: you can defeat the Philistines. It's so that you can
- 39:36Speaker 1: feed 5,000 with two fish and five loaves of bread.
- 39:40Speaker 1: It's so that your handful of meal doesn't run out.
- 39:43Speaker 1: When the anointing comes upon you, God will make one
- 39:46Speaker 1: pot of oil last till the famine is over. I
- 39:49Speaker 1: break every famine over your life. I break it. I
- 39:53Speaker 1: break it. Oh, God. Oh, I got to hold myself
- 39:57Speaker 1: because I feel it. I feel it. I feel it.
- 40:00Speaker 1: I feel it. I feel it. It's about to break
- 40:03Speaker 1: up under the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Every curse,
- 40:06Speaker 1: every spell, every bondage, every trial, every test, it's about
- 40:11Speaker 1: to break. Somebody throw your hands up and say, anoint me, Lord.
- 40:29Speaker 1: Glory to God. Glory to God. Glory to God. Glory
- 40:35Speaker 1: to God. All we need is the anointing of God.
- 40:42Speaker 1: He's stronger than COVID.
- 40:57Speaker 1: The Spirit is willing. The flesh is weak.
- 41:01Speaker 1: The Spirit is willing. The flesh is weak. Greater is
- 41:05Speaker 1: He that is in you than he that is in
- 41:08Speaker 1: the world. Are you hearing what I'm saying to you?
- 41:13Speaker 1: Look at somebody and say, something's about to happen in here.
- 41:16Speaker 1: I can feel it. I can feel it. I can
- 41:18Speaker 1: feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it.
- 41:20Speaker 1: I can feel it. I can feel it. Something is
- 41:23Speaker 1: about to happen. Let's go deeper with this thing. Now
- 41:29Speaker 1: Samuel is going to Bethlehem with his horn full of
- 41:35Speaker 1: oil to anoint one of Jesse's sons. So that means
- 41:41Speaker 1: Samuel is carrying another man's anointing. Can God trust you?
- 41:58Speaker 1: Can God trust you? with another man's anointing. Can God
- 42:04Speaker 1: give you something and trust you not to use it
- 42:07Speaker 1: on yourself? Can God let you carry another man's anointing?
- 42:14Speaker 1: This is David's anointing, but it's in Samuel's hand. And
- 42:18Speaker 1: God gave it to Samuel because he could trust him
- 42:22Speaker 1: to deliver the right anointing to the right place. And
- 42:25Speaker 1: God said he will not give you your own anointing.
- 42:28Speaker 1: until you are first faithful to that which pertains to
- 42:32Speaker 1: another man. Look it up. It's in the Word of God.
- 42:34Speaker 1: Until you are faithful with another man's anointing, God will
- 42:39Speaker 1: not give you your own. Look at your neighbor and say,
- 42:50Speaker 1: I've got something for you. Sometimes, let's go deeper with this.
- 42:57Speaker 1: Sometimes God will put somebody else's blessing in your pocketbook. Oh,
- 43:06Speaker 1: I lost him on that one. He will give it
- 43:11Speaker 1: to you if he can get it through you. Now
- 43:18Speaker 1: Samuel gets to take a trip carrying another man's anointing
- 43:24Speaker 1: Because God trusts him. God trusts him. I remember we
- 43:32Speaker 1: were going through a struggle one time in this ministry
- 43:35Speaker 1: and I told the Lord, I said, if we're in
- 43:37Speaker 1: trouble and we need something and I can do something
- 43:39Speaker 1: to get us out, I will do it. Whatever I
- 43:42Speaker 1: got is yours. My house is yours. My car is yours.
- 43:46Speaker 1: My clothes are yours. Whatever's in my bank account is yours.
- 43:49Speaker 1: Because when you met me, I didn't have nothing. Naked
- 43:52Speaker 1: came I into this world. And naked I shall return.
- 43:55Speaker 1: And Holy Ghost, I just want you to know, my
- 43:58Speaker 1: checkbook is yours. My credit card is yours. My house
- 44:02Speaker 1: is yours. My car is yours. Whatever you want, anytime
- 44:06Speaker 1: you want it, anytime you need it. Because you just
- 44:08Speaker 1: loaned it to me in the first place. I'm going
- 44:11Speaker 1: to die and leave it here. Don't you know you
- 44:16Speaker 1: don't have nothing? Everything you carry, God gave it to you.
- 44:22Speaker 1: God gave you the oil. God gave you the oil
- 44:25Speaker 1: and said, go down to Bethlehem. Oh, I feel like preaching.
- 44:28Speaker 1: Take that organ off me. If you don't stop, I
- 44:32Speaker 1: feel like something's about to happen in this place. Sometimes
- 44:36Speaker 1: God puts a healing for somebody else in your hands
- 44:41Speaker 1: and you'll be anointed, but when you find them and
- 44:44Speaker 1: touch them, they'll be healed by the power of God.
- 44:47Speaker 1: Glory to God. I'm carrying another man's anointing. I'm carrying
- 44:55Speaker 1: somebody's breakthrough. I'm carrying somebody's healing. I'm carrying somebody's deliverance.
- 45:01Speaker 1: I'm carrying somebody's health. I'm carrying somebody's peace. I'm carrying
- 45:06Speaker 1: somebody's joy. So here comes Samuel. Here comes Samuel. with
- 45:21Speaker 1: an anointing for a man he has not met. And
- 45:27Speaker 1: even though Samuel is a prophet, God's instructions are vague.
- 45:36Speaker 1: You've been saying, Lord, as soon as I see my
- 45:38Speaker 1: way clear, I'm going to move. No, God said, I'm
- 45:42Speaker 1: going to send you to go with limited information. I'm
- 45:47Speaker 1: not going to tell you which one it is. Can
- 45:54Speaker 1: you obey me in the dark? Can you see through
- 46:01Speaker 1: a glass darkly and still follow my words? And let
- 46:05Speaker 1: my word be a lamp unto your feet and a
- 46:09Speaker 1: light unto your pathway. You know, when David said, thy
- 46:11Speaker 1: word is a lamp unto my feet, in those days
- 46:14Speaker 1: they had ankle lamps so that when you traveled at night,
- 46:17Speaker 1: there'd be enough light for you to see how to
- 46:20Speaker 1: walk at night. You couldn't see way down the road.
- 46:23Speaker 1: You could see just enough to make the next step.
- 46:26Speaker 1: And they called them ankle lamps. Thy word is a
- 46:29Speaker 1: lamp unto my feet and a light unto my pathway.
- 46:32Speaker 1: You're trying to see way down the road. But God's
- 46:35Speaker 1: going to light it up little by little, step by step.
- 46:38Speaker 1: The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord.
- 46:41Speaker 1: Who am I talking to right now? You're not going
- 46:45Speaker 1: to see 10 years down the road. You're going to
- 46:47Speaker 1: see the next step. And as great a prophet as
- 46:54Speaker 1: Samuel was, God did not give him details. He knows
- 47:00Speaker 1: to go down there and to invite Jesse and his
- 47:03Speaker 1: sons to And Jesse brings most of his sons. And
- 47:11Speaker 1: he comes to Eliab. Now let's watch this, because this
- 47:15Speaker 1: is where the Holy Spirit starts to give us more detail.
- 47:18Speaker 1: When he gets down there, Jesse brings Eliab, his eldest son,
- 47:23Speaker 1: to be anointed. And the Bible goes out of its
- 47:26Speaker 1: way to tell us that Eliab was tall and striking
- 47:30Speaker 1: and strong, and he'd make a good-looking king. They would
- 47:35Speaker 1: almost not even know that Saul was gone because Saul
- 47:39Speaker 1: was tall. The Bible said he stood head and shoulders
- 47:43Speaker 1: above every other man. And you don't want to disappoint
- 47:47Speaker 1: the people bringing in some little runt. And here comes Eliab.
- 47:54Speaker 1: Jesse brings Eliab out to be anointed. And it fools Samuel.
- 48:01Speaker 1: You can be a true prophet today. and make a
- 48:04Speaker 1: bad decision. Samuel was a true prophet, but he was
- 48:12Speaker 1: ready to anoint the wrong man. Samuel says, when Eliab says,
- 48:22Speaker 1: he says, surely the Lord's anointed stands here before the Lord.
- 48:27Speaker 1: And he was wrong. Because Samuel was looking at how
- 48:32Speaker 1: Eliab looked And I wondered to myself, because Eliab later
- 48:39Speaker 1: gives David trouble. You remember that? You remember when David
- 48:44Speaker 1: goes down to fight Goliath, that Eliab is the same
- 48:47Speaker 1: brother that gives him trouble? And I wondered if there
- 48:50Speaker 1: isn't a little bit of jealousy there. Because when Samuel
- 48:58Speaker 1: lifted up the horn over Eliab's head, the oil wouldn't flow.
- 49:06Speaker 1: I'm going to make that clear in a minute. The
- 49:07Speaker 1: oil wouldn't flow. Because as much as Samuel is anointed,
- 49:15Speaker 1: the oil, which is the type of the Holy Spirit,
- 49:18Speaker 1: is more intelligent. than the prophet. I'm going to say
- 49:26Speaker 1: that again. The oil is more intelligent than the prophet.
- 49:29Speaker 1: The prophet was ready to settle on Eliab. But Eliab
- 49:34Speaker 1: would have broke the shadow. Eliab would have ruined the genealogy.
- 49:41Speaker 1: Eliab would have thrown us off task. It couldn't be
- 49:45Speaker 1: just any one of Jesse's sons. It had to be
- 49:49Speaker 1: the right one. God is particular. It's got to be
- 49:53Speaker 1: done exactly the way God says do it. It can't
- 49:58Speaker 1: be what looks good to you. For what seems right
- 50:03Speaker 1: to you is wrong with God. For man looks on
- 50:07Speaker 1: the outward appearance, but God was looking for a particular heart. Now,
- 50:13Speaker 1: I want to go into this. That means God chooses
- 50:17Speaker 1: us by our heart, not our talent. You've been working
- 50:27Speaker 1: on your talent when you need to be working on
- 50:29Speaker 1: your heart. God doesn't value talent like he values heart.
- 50:40Speaker 1: You're trying to speak to the people, try loving the people.
- 50:48Speaker 1: You're trying to move the people with your voice, but
- 50:54Speaker 1: what will move the people is your heart. God says,
- 51:00Speaker 1: I am not going to spend my anointing on someone
- 51:04Speaker 1: whose heart is not turned toward me. I found a
- 51:13Speaker 1: man who is after my heart. Didn't mean that David
- 51:18Speaker 1: was perfect. Didn't mean that he was holy. Didn't mean
- 51:22Speaker 1: that he didn't make mistakes. But it meant that David
- 51:25Speaker 1: was a God chaser. It meant that David would wake
- 51:30Speaker 1: up early in the morning and sing songs to God
- 51:34Speaker 1: up in the fields by himself. That David would write
- 51:37Speaker 1: poetry to God like he was a lover. And God said,
- 51:41Speaker 1: I'm going to make you a king, not because you
- 51:45Speaker 1: were raised up in a palace, not because you went
- 51:48Speaker 1: to the right school. I'm going to make you a
- 51:51Speaker 1: king because you're after me. You're chasing me. You're wooing me.
- 51:57Speaker 1: God said, if I find somebody that's after my heart,
- 52:01Speaker 1: I will promote them. Are there any God chasers in
- 52:05Speaker 1: the house? I believe you're a God chaser. I believe
- 52:11Speaker 1: you're a God. You're out here on a Wednesday night.
- 52:13Speaker 1: I know you're a God chaser. You wouldn't come out
- 52:15Speaker 1: on a Wednesday night after working all day if you
- 52:18Speaker 1: weren't chasing something from God. And God is looking at
- 52:23Speaker 1: the chase. You're watching me online. God is looking at
- 52:31Speaker 1: the chase. How do you chase him? God says, seek me.
- 52:38Speaker 1: While I may be found. Call ye upon me while
- 52:41Speaker 1: I'm yet near. God is watching your pursuit of him.
- 52:46Speaker 1: Are you in pursuit of him or are you sitting
- 52:49Speaker 1: back waiting on him to chase you? God made David
- 52:53Speaker 1: king because David was dating God, pursuing God. writing songs
- 53:01Speaker 1: to God, writing poetry to God, dancing in the mountains
- 53:06Speaker 1: where nobody could see. David was trying, oh, y'all don't
- 53:09Speaker 1: hear what I'm saying. See, there's something about being a
- 53:13Speaker 1: God chaser. And you're sitting up there with your legs
- 53:16Speaker 1: crossed and your lips sealed, but God is watching you
- 53:19Speaker 1: chase him. When you get after his heart, I'm after
- 53:23Speaker 1: his heart, I'm after his heart. God said, I found
- 53:26Speaker 1: a man whose only qualification His only qualification is that
- 53:33Speaker 1: he's after my heart. So he brought Eliab and it
- 53:45Speaker 1: wasn't Eliab. And he brought Abinadab and it wasn't Abinadab.
- 53:50Speaker 1: And he brought Shammah and it wasn't Shammah. And he
- 53:53Speaker 1: brought all seven of his sons together. And it wasn't
- 53:58Speaker 1: any of them. How do you know it wasn't any
- 54:01Speaker 1: of them? Because the oil wouldn't flow. Now, this is
- 54:07Speaker 1: where we get back into this horn. The horn of
- 54:10Speaker 1: oil was designed. What caused the oil to stay in
- 54:14Speaker 1: the horn is that they put wax in the bottom
- 54:18Speaker 1: of the horn so that it would hold the oil.
- 54:22Speaker 1: And until the wax melted, the oil wouldn't flow. and
- 54:29Speaker 1: they held the horn over Eliab's head, but he didn't
- 54:33Speaker 1: have enough glory to melt the wax. They brought Abinadab,
- 54:46Speaker 1: but he didn't have enough glory to melt the wax.
- 54:49Speaker 1: They brought Shammah. He didn't have enough glory to melt
- 54:52Speaker 1: the wax. And all of a sudden the prophet said,
- 54:55Speaker 1: you got to have another son. You got to have
- 54:58Speaker 1: another son. You got to have somebody else. Now they
- 55:02Speaker 1: have gone through seven That is a completion. Seven is
- 55:07Speaker 1: the number of completeness. That means that David coming is
- 55:11Speaker 1: number eight, meaning God is about to do a new thing.
- 55:16Speaker 1: The former things are passed away, and all things are
- 55:20Speaker 1: about to be new. Glory to God. If you haven't
- 55:24Speaker 1: gotten it by number seven, it's a sign that God's
- 55:27Speaker 1: going to do something with number eight. God is about
- 55:31Speaker 1: to do a new thing. Shout a hallelujah. Give me
- 55:36Speaker 1: just a 30 seconds of praise right now. That was nice,
- 56:04Speaker 1: but praise Him for something new. Praise Him for something
- 56:07Speaker 1: you haven't seen yet. Praise Him for something that's about
- 56:10Speaker 1: to blow your mind. Praise Him for something that's out
- 56:13Speaker 1: of sequence. Praise Him for something fresh. Praise Him for
- 56:17Speaker 1: something that seems impossible. God is about to do a
- 56:20Speaker 1: new thing. Who knows if you praise him right tonight,
- 56:35Speaker 1: you might melt some wax. If you praise him tonight,
- 56:41Speaker 1: you might melt the wax that's stopping the glory for
- 56:45Speaker 1: the season that you're in right now. I'm going to
- 56:48Speaker 1: give you another chance to melt some wax until the
- 56:52Speaker 1: oil begins to flow. Somebody praise him. Somebody praise him.
- 56:56Speaker 1: Somebody praise him. Anybody praise him. Everybody praise him. Let
- 57:00Speaker 1: everything that have breath Yes.
- 57:13Speaker 3: Yes.
- 57:15Speaker 2: Yes. Yes.
- 57:19Speaker 3: Yes.
- 57:21Speaker 2: Yes. Yes.
- 57:24Speaker 3: Yes.
- 57:26Speaker 1: Yes.
- 57:28Speaker 2: Yes.
- 57:32Speaker 1: I'm not praising him to impress you. I'm not praising
- 57:35Speaker 1: him to make me look spiritual. I'm trying to melt
- 57:39Speaker 1: this wax. This thing that's stopping me from getting what
- 57:43Speaker 1: God has for me. I got to melt this wax
- 57:47Speaker 1: so I can get up under a floor so the
- 57:49Speaker 1: anointing of God can destroy the yoke. I don't care
- 57:53Speaker 1: what I look like. I don't care what I got on.
- 57:55Speaker 1: I don't care how you make fun of me. I
- 57:58Speaker 1: don't care what they say about me. I don't care
- 58:00Speaker 1: what they type about me. I don't care what they
- 58:03Speaker 1: think about me. I got to melt this wax. If
- 58:06Speaker 1: I melt this wax, God will open up the windows
- 58:10Speaker 1: of heaven and pull me out of there. All I
- 58:12Speaker 1: care about, all I care about, all I.
- 58:16Speaker 4: Care about, all I care about.
- 58:34Speaker 1: There's been a restriction. There's been a restriction in your life.
- 58:39Speaker 1: You're close to it, but you can't get into it.
- 58:42Speaker 1: And every time you get close to it, you can't
- 58:45Speaker 1: seem to melt the wax. But God said for somebody
- 58:48Speaker 1: tonight that wax is about to melt in your life
- 58:52Speaker 1: and you're coming into a flow like you've never seen
- 58:55Speaker 1: before and God's going to do a new thing in
- 58:58Speaker 1: your life. Whoever it is, claim it for yourself right now.
- 59:34Speaker 1: Type on the line, I gotta melt this wax. Type
- 59:38Speaker 1: it on the line, I gotta melt this wax. I
- 59:40Speaker 1: gotta melt this wax. I gotta melt this wax. I
- 59:43Speaker 1: gotta melt this wax. I gotta melt this wax. I
- 59:46Speaker 1: gotta melt this wax. I gotta melt it. I gotta
- 59:49Speaker 1: melt it. If it takes all night, I'm not gonna
- 59:52Speaker 1: sit down till I melt it. I'm not gonna rest.
- 59:55Speaker 1: I'm not going to stop till I melt it. If
- 59:58Speaker 1: I mess up my makeup, I'm going to melt this wax.
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: If I mess up my hair, I'm going to melt
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: this wax. If I run around this couch, I'm going
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: to melt this wax. I'm not going to stop till
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: I melt. I'm not going to stop till I melt.
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: I'm not going to stop till I melt. Every restriction,
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: every limitation, every hindrance, it's time for you to go.
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down. I got
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: to go further. I got to go further. Oh, my God. Oh,
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: my God. Oh, my God. I feel that glory we
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: had Sunday morning. I feel it sitting in here right now.
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: I feel it sitting in here right now. I hope
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: you can feel it online. The anointing of the Lord
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: is on this word right now. I want you to
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: receive it. I want you to understand. Jesse has brought
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: seven of his sons, but one of them is out
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: of alignment. He said, you got to have somebody else.
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: Somebody's not here. Somebody's misaligned. He said, well, there is
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: that boy over in the field. He's kind of weird.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: Dancing around. Singing songs. Can't see nobody. He up there
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: on the hill. He's kind of weird. I didn't want
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: to bring him down. He said, is he your son?
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: Bring him down. And they brought little David. Little ruddy,
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: young David.
- 1:02:15Speaker 4: Him?
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: David has.
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: Legacy of being underestimated is there anybody in here that
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: has a legacy of being underestimated and when you come
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: into the room they say her God always uses people
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: that are underestimated. You remember what Goliath said about him.
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: He said, am I a dog that you would send
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: this boy down here with rocks after me? This is
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: David being anointed, and he comes down smelling like sheep dung,
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: all raggedy and young and short, ill-prepared, not qualified, not trained.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Only thing he's ever been around was sheep. He doesn't
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: know protocol for the palace. He doesn't know anything about warfare.
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: But Eliab was a soldier. David was a shepherd boy.
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: God made a king out of a shepherd boy. But
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: the shepherd boy, in order to find out who he was,
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: had to come down to Bethlehem. He had to bring
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: David to the place. There could be no flow until
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: there was alignment. As much as God had in store
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: for David, and as much as David was dancing on
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: the mountains, God would not anoint him out of place. See,
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: there's as much glory on being in the right place
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: as there is having the right attitude. David had the
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: right attitude, but he had to have the right alignment.
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: God would not send the oil to David. David had
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: to come to the oil. Now, he says, Samuel says,
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: I will not rest. until he comes into alignment. What
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: is God waiting on you to do or move in
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: order for you to come into alignment? Do you really
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: think that you can stay out there on the hills,
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: out of alignment, and just because you write poetry and
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: sing songs, that God will change the place to resolve
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: the problem? You have to come down to the place
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: because your being in Bethlehem is prophetic for thousands of years.
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: are predicated on you coming into alignment. This oil is
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: bigger than your head. This is not about you. This
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: is about what is going to come through you. Let
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: me bring this down. You are not being attacked about you.
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: It's what's going to come through you. The enemy knows
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: that when you come into alignment, your children's children's children's
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: children are going to be affected by you coming into alignment.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: And Samuel said, I cannot rest until David comes into alignment.
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: David coming down out of the mountains, down to stand
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: in Bethlehem, he is to stand where Jesus is to
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: be born. He had to be in that place or
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: they all wouldn't flow. This is bigger than his promotion.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: This is his prophecy. This is his destiny. This is
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: his legacy. It is not just about the man. It
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: is also about the place. David comes to Bethlehem so
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: that when Joseph later was carrying Mary down the road pregnant,
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: God meant for them to get tired in Bethlehem because
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: Bethlehem was the place where David was to be anointed,
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: where Jesus was to be born, where the wise men
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: were to recognize the king, the real king. king of
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: kings and the lord of lords of which David is
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: just a shadow and Jesus is to be called the
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: son of David and so they had to be in
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: the right place at the right time they're thousands of
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: years apart but it's still the right place and the
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: right do you hear the words that are coming out
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: of my mouth and when David comes down with his
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: little bitty self and his smelly self, and his untrained,
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: unprepared self with no experience and no training to be king.
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: When Samuel held up the horn, the wax melted and
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: the oil flowed. It flowed down upon the head of David.
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: That oil flowed down through David's son's It's flowed down
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: through generations that all flowed all the way down to Jesus. Jesus, Christos, Christma,
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: the anointed one. Christ means the anointed one. David is
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: acting out what Jesus is. This Bible class, come on.
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: This Bible class. It's not Sunday morning. This Bible class.
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: So when David comes to Bethlehem, he is giving us
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: a shadow. of the Messiah, of the king of Israel,
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: the real king, of which David is just a shadow.
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: But he had to do it in Bethlehem because Mary's
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: water was going to break in Bethlehem. The wax melted
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: in Bethlehem. Her water broke in Bethlehem. Y'all don't hear
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I'm going to go find somebody I
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: can teach this to that can get what I'm saying.
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: Everything breaks loose when you get in the right place.
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: It ain't no accident. Her water didn't break loose nowhere else.
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: When she got to Bethlehem, she said, oh, Joseph, I
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: can't go no further. The baby is coming. The baby
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: is coming. And any pregnant woman will tell you that
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: the sign of the baby coming is the water breaking.
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: Her water broke in the same way that that wax melted.
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: And both of them are kings. Oh, y'all don't hear
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Do you get it? Are you with me?
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: Are you with me? Are you with me? Can you
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: hear me? Do you feel it? Something's about to break
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: in your life, and if it breaks in your life,
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: it's going to break in your grandson's life. If it
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: breaks in your life, oh, God, generational curses are going
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: to be broken in your life. Shout yes. Yes. Watch this,
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: and I'm almost finished. I'm almost finished. I feel kind
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: of good in my soul. I'm trying to keep this
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: on the Bible class level, but I feel a flow.
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: I feel a flow, I feel a flow, I feel
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: a flow. Everything in God is about a flow. It's
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: about a flow, it's about a flow. There is a
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: fountain filled with blood. There's always a flow, a flow,
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: a flow. The spirit flows, the wax melted, the oil flows.
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: It doesn't just anoint David. It anoints prophetically all the
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: way down to Jesus becoming the Christ, the anointed one.
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: Are you watching what I'm saying to you? So when
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: they bring David down, this is not just history, this
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: is destiny. The wax melts because he is the one.
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: He is the one.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: He is the only one. The Holy Spirit knows him.
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit moves everything out the way that's in between.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: David's head and the anointing, it's got to go. When
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: it is your time, it is your time, and everything
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: in the way has got to melt out of the way.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit knows what God has for you is
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: for you. You don't have to fight nobody. You don't
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: have to argue with nobody. You don't have to be
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: jealous of nobody. This is yours. Here it comes. This
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: is yours. Are you ready? Here it comes. This is yours.
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: Are you ready? Here it comes. This is yours. Are
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: you ready? Here it comes. This is yours. This is
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: a relief coming down from glory. Here it comes.
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: Here it comes. Here it comes.
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: This is yours. This is your prophetic word. Anointed alignment.
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: Watch this. The oil hit the head of David. And
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: from that point forward, The house of Saul grows weaker
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: and weaker. And the house of David grows stronger and stronger.
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: That that is of the flesh grows weaker and weaker.
- 1:13:10Speaker 1: While that that is of the spirit grows stronger and stronger.
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: It is not that your flesh is dead. You're reckoning
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: it to be dead. It's not dead. It's not that
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: you don't still like whatever you used to like. It's
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: not like you don't crave whatever you used to crave.
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: It's just that you don't crave it like you used
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: to crave it. Because the house of Saul is getting
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: weaker and weaker. I know you got to act like
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: you don't know what I'm talking about. Because you can't
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: act like you.
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: You can't let the saints know that you still got
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: some issues that are still walking around in the palace,
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: think they're in charge. But the shift has happened. And
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: the more you get up under the anointing, the house
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: of Saul is getting weaker and weaker. And the house
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: of David is getting stronger and stronger. And it does
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: not yet appear what you shall be. But in just
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: a moment, they're going to see you standing in your glory.
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: because your soul is getting weaker. Somebody praise God. My
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: soul is getting weaker. My Saul is getting weaker. My
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: issue is getting weaker. My struggle is getting weaker. My
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: temper is getting weaker. My flesh is getting weaker. My
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: flesh is getting weaker. The house of Saul is growing
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: weaker and weaker, and the house of David is growing stronger.
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: David goes back out to take care of the sheep.
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: It doesn't matter anymore where he is because the oil
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: has flowed. It will not stop the transfer from that
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: day forward. Years before he was made king officially, it
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: was going to happen. It was just a matter of time.
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: Saul ends up dying. David ends up king because of
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: one thing, anointed and alignment. Years ago, before I was
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: ever thought about, known, recognized, anything at all, a prophet
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: in New York prophesied to the 50 states. And when
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: he got to West Virginia, he prophesied to West Virginia.
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: And he said, oh, West Virginia, hear ye the words
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: of the Lord. Out of the hills of West Virginia
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: shall come a prophet. Out of the hills of West Virginia,
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: he shall shake the nations. He shall shake the world. See,
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: God is going to so highly exalt him that the
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: saints will have to pray and and get behind it
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: because this prophet is going to come up so high
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: that it is going to boggle their mind. I'm translating
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: it a little bit, but that's basically what the prophecy said. Well,
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: my people weren't even in West Virginia. My people, my
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: mother's from Alabama, my daddy's from Mississippi. They only went
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: to West Virginia to do a temporary job. When they
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: got to West Virginia, my mother fell in love with
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: the mountains, and she called my daddy, Ernie Sell. She said,
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: Ernie Sell, I want to stay up here in the
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: mountains because I love these beautiful mountains. None of her
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: sisters lived there. None of her brothers lived there. We
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: had no relatives there. And all of a sudden, she's
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: in love with the mountains. While she's in love with
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: the mountains and birthing me and my sister, my brother
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: was born in Mississippi, while she was birthing us, the
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: prophet is prophesying and the shift is occurring and I'm
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: coming into alignment to be in a particular place at
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: a particular time to fulfill a word that I grew into.
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: How?
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: There's a word coming that you're going to have to
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: grow into. You're going to have to shift into. You're
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: going to have to move into. And God is setting
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: you up. Setting you up for a new thing. And
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: in order for it to happen, we had to be
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: in West Virginia. So when they finished, my father worked
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: for Nashville Stone Setting Company. When they finished building the building,
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: he stayed. He had no job. And he stayed in
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: West Virginia with no relatives, picking up jobs wherever he
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: could because my mother refused to leave. You see how
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: God will do things to strategically put you in a
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: particular place at a particular time for something you don't
- 1:18:25Speaker 1: even understand? So when my mother had me, I was
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: born in between two dead babies. The baby before me died,
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: the baby after me died, I lived. When my mother
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: had me, I was born with a veil over my face.
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: A lady came down to see me and she said
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: to my mother, ooh, look, he has a veil over
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: his face. You know how old folks are. She said,
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: he's a prophet. She didn't know anything about what the
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: other prophet had said. All she knew is that she
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: looked over in my crib and she saw a prophet.
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: My mother saw a baby. She saw a prophet. a
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: prophet in West Virginia. Type on the line, the shift
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: is on, the shift is on. The shift is on.
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: Put it in your notes. The shift is on. The
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: shift is on. Stop asking questions. Just go with the flow.
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: Just go with the flow. Stop asking questions. Stop asking
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: God to explain stuff. Stop trying to see everything. The
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: shift is on. The shift is on. If God said Bethlehem,
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: it's Bethlehem. If God said stand up, stand up. If
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: God said praise him. Praise him. If God says so, so.
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: If God said give, give. If God said pray, pray.
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: Whatever God says, that's what you do because you've got
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: to come into alignment. If you come into alignment, it
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: doesn't matter what people are saying. It doesn't matter what
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: people think about it. You've got to come into alignment.
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: So that the wax is melting and the water is breaking.
- 1:20:06Speaker 1: You got to come into alignment because destiny depends on what,
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: on your next move. Anointed.
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: Alignment.
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: There are some of you right now, the Holy Spirit
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: is speaking to you. He's telling you to do something
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: or go somewhere. Or move or step into his will.
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: Some of you he's challenging you to give or to
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: sow or to plant. Step into his will. Don't argue back.
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: This is the eighth son. God's going to do a
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: new thing. The former things are passed away. All the
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: seven sons have gone past. This is going to be
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: done by the eighth son. The eighth son is a
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: new beginning. Somebody shout new beginnings. A new beginning is
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: coming in your life. A new order, a new hierarchy
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: is coming in your life. And you have to be
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: in alignment for the oil to flow. And Samuel wouldn't
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: even sit down till David came into alignment. You are
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: the one. You are the one. Be what the Holy
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: Spirit is saying. And there they offered up sacrifice to God.
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: And there they worshiped God. And David is greasy with anointing.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: A horn of oil is enough oil to run down
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: your head, down your face, get in your clothes, drop
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: down to the floor. It wasn't a little cross on
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: his forehead. He was drenched. God is getting ready to
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: drench you Yes, in supernatural power and enablement and glory
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: and power and unction and authority. For thine is the
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever.
- 1:22:14Speaker 2: Amen.
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: This is divine authority. As we close tonight, God is
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: moving in divine authority to bring about alignment in your
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: life for his own purpose. for his own purpose, for
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: his own purpose, for his own purpose. I dare you
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: to obey the Holy Spirit right now. I dare you
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: to obey the Holy Spirit. I dare you to obey
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit. God is going to bring you from
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: obscurity to notoriety, from the background to the forefront. The
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: very one they rejected, the very one they said would
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: never be nothing, God is bringing you into alignment. It
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: will not be long that you're going to meet somebody.
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: You're going to be in the right place at the
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: right time. They're carrying your oil. They're carrying your oil.
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: They're carrying your oil. They're coming to you with what
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: you need. They think you're a shepherd boy, but you're
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: a king in disguise. Who am I talking to?
- 1:23:15Speaker 3: Obey him.
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: Obey him. Obey him. Obey him. Obey him. Obey him.
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: Obey him. Obey him. Obey him. Obey him. That's what's
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: wrong with our services. We're too much alike. Everybody dancing
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: at the same time. Everybody doing this and that at
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: the same time. Let me tell you, when the glory
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: of God starts moving, somebody will be dancing and somebody
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: will be laying prostrate on the floor. Somebody will be
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: kneeling at their seat and somebody will have their hands up.
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: When the Spirit of God moves, it's nothing for you
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: to do but obey Him. I'm coming into alignment. I'm
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: coming into alignment. I'm coming into alignment. I'm coming into alignment.
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: I'm coming into alignment. I've got to move into the
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: place that the oil is flowing. I've got to move
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: into it. Now, you don't have long. You don't have long.
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: You don't have long. You don't have long. You don't
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: have long. If the Holy Spirit is speaking to you
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: about alignment right now, whatever God says to do it now,
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: the anointing is on this moment. The oil will flow
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: the moment you obey him. If you got a soul, soul.
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: If you got a sing, sing. If you got a cry, cry.
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: If you got a crawl, crawl. Whatever God, whatever God said. Whatever,
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: whatever God said. I got to be in alignment. I
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: don't have time to have unforgiveness. I got to be
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: in alignment. I don't have time to get even. I
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: got to be in alignment. The oil is about to flow.
- 1:25:02Speaker 4: Whoo!
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: The oil is about to flow. The oil is about
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: to flow. The oil is about to flow. The oil
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: is about to flow. The oil is about to flow.
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: The oil is about to flow. Let it flow.
- 1:25:18Speaker 2: Let it flow.
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: Let it flow. Let it flow. Let it flow. The
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: oil is about to flow. The oil is about to flow.
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: The oil is about to flow. Listen, we're getting ready
- 1:25:41Speaker 1: to close. You can't let this service close without obeying God.
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: You can't let this service close without doing what he said.
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: You can't let this service close without sowing what God
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: said sow. You can't let it close. If this service
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: closes and you miss this opportunity, you're going to miss
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: the flow of the Holy Spirit. It's flowing now. It's flowing.
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: It's flowing.
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: It's flowing. Where are my worship singers? It's flowing. It's flowing.
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: It's flowing. The oil is flowing. The oil is flowing.
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: It's flowing now. It's flowing now. It's flowing now. It's
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: flowing now. It's flowing now. It's flowing now. I see
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: people bringing their gifts on the altar. Whatever he says, do.
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: Do it now.
- 1:26:42Speaker 5: It's flowing. It's flowing. It's flowing. It's flowing. It's flowing.
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: I feel it falling on my head. I feel it
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: falling on my beard. I feel it falling in my clothes.
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: Oh. Oh.
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: Oh.
- 1:27:10Speaker 3: Oh.
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: Here comes the flow. Here comes the flow. I can't
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: miss it.
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: I've been through too much.
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: I can't miss this flow. I can't miss this flow.
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: Not again.
- 1:27:32Speaker 6: I can't miss this flow.
- 1:27:38Speaker 2: Don't let me miss it.
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: Lord, whatever you're doing in this earth, don't do it
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: without me.
- 1:27:54Speaker 3: Don't do it without me. Don't do it without me.
- 1:27:59Speaker 3: Don't do it without me.
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: I got to catch this flow. I got to catch
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: this flow. Catch this flow. Catch this flow.
- 1:28:15Speaker 2: 60, 59, 58, 57.
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: 56, 55, 54, 53, 52, 51.

- 1:31:39Speaker 2: Here I am, Lord. Don't do it.
- 1:32:00Speaker 1: The anointing of God is in this place. Spirit of
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: the Lord, God, rain down on us. We worship you
- 1:32:09Speaker 1: in our obedience, in our surrender, in our willingness to
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: make a move, to act on the word, to come
- 1:32:17Speaker 1: into alignment, to come into alignment, anointed alignment, anointed alignment.
- 1:32:26Speaker 1: I'm coming into alignment. Here I come. Here I come.
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: Let every soul on the altar, every soul on the internet,
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: every soul that's streaming online, every soul that's watching this
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: Bible class come into alignment.
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: Don't do it without me. Don't do it without me.
- 1:32:52Speaker 2: Don't do it without me. Don't do it.
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: Don't do it without me.
