Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: Morning family, Good morning, God bless you. I am smiling
- 0:08Speaker 1: phone ear to ear. They say, hey man, because I'm
- 0:11Speaker 1: back in the studio, God bless you. Welcome back to
- 0:14Speaker 1: the Morning Devo. If this is your first time in
- 0:16Speaker 1: the Morning Devo, this is not a coincidence. This is
- 0:18Speaker 1: not something that happened that was weird. I don't believe
- 0:21Speaker 1: in coincidences. I believe in divine appointments. I believe God
- 0:25Speaker 1: draws people to himself by way of Holy Spirit. We
- 0:28Speaker 1: go again into His word for like twenty five minutes
- 0:30Speaker 1: or so. Hey man, and we're going to do this
- 0:32Speaker 1: thing for the glory of God. Right, we're talking about
- 0:36Speaker 1: clean and close. You've probably heard me say that because
- 0:39Speaker 1: I've heard people and sometimes I say it still. It's
- 0:43Speaker 1: like one of those habits that I have. I got
- 0:44Speaker 1: to get closer to God. And I hear people say that.
- 0:47Speaker 1: But I'm always telling people, listen, if you're born again,
- 0:50Speaker 1: you have Holy Spirit God living inside of you. Therefore
- 0:53Speaker 1: you can't get any more closer or you can't get
- 0:56Speaker 1: any more cleaner. We're clean and close by way of
- 0:59Speaker 1: Holy Spirit living inside of us. I need you to
- 1:02Speaker 1: get this the whole of God by way of his
- 1:06Speaker 1: spirit lives and dwells inside of His house, which is
- 1:11Speaker 1: our temple, our body. We're talking about the God of
- 1:15Speaker 1: the whole entire universe. Sounds far fest to a lot
- 1:18Speaker 1: of people. They said, it's not possible, that can't be. Well,
- 1:21Speaker 1: that's the word of God, and it is what God says. Amen.
- 1:27Speaker 1: And even though you might not feel clean and close,
- 1:31Speaker 1: but biblically, supernaturally, by way of spirit God's word, you
- 1:36Speaker 1: are clean and close. God desires purity and worship and
- 1:42Speaker 1: justice and his house, and you're gonna be probably a
- 1:46Speaker 1: little shock of what his house truly means. Men, Because
- 1:50Speaker 1: I know you've probably heard of the house of God.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Come to the House of God. You know, I invite
- 1:56Speaker 1: you to the House of God. Amen, And you probably
- 1:59Speaker 1: heard that sounds right, sounds logical. Let's go to a
- 2:04Speaker 1: place where God is. But let's see what Jesus said
- 2:09Speaker 1: himself and what the scripture says concerning that. Amen. That's
- 2:13Speaker 1: all I'm here for. I don't want us, you know,
- 2:15Speaker 1: I don't need to cause trouble or anything like that.
- 2:17Speaker 1: I just want us to think this through. Man. I
- 2:20Speaker 1: think we hear things that are not really lining up
- 2:25Speaker 1: or jiving with the scriptures, We're gonna be a Matthew
- 2:28Speaker 1: chapter twenty one, verse number thirteen, Today in the Morning Devo.
- 2:31Speaker 1: If you have any questions, comments, concerns, prayer requests, or

- 3:35Speaker 1: It's good to be back in the studio. I was
- 3:37Speaker 1: away for half a week, probably like around half a
- 3:41Speaker 1: week due to my wife being traveling for business with
- 3:46Speaker 1: her organization. And I'm grateful that she took me with her. Amen.
- 3:50Speaker 1: I got to enjoy some Orlando, Florida. Amen, and shout
- 3:55Speaker 1: to all the people in Orlando and in that area
- 3:58Speaker 1: in Florida state of Florida. It's like I would say,

- 4:23Speaker 1: was driving truck and literally he was on my side
- 4:26Speaker 1: of town when I was on his side of town.
- 4:29Speaker 1: So it was like a spot. So maybe next time, Amen,
- 4:33Speaker 1: God willing. So God desires purity and worship and justice
- 4:38Speaker 1: in his house. Let's pray first, after we pray with shit,
- 4:40Speaker 1: it's out for like sixty seconds, and then on the
- 4:43Speaker 1: other side of those sixty seconds we'll get right into
- 4:45Speaker 1: the scripture. Matthew twenty one, verse number thirteen. You're ready, Father.
- 4:50Speaker 1: I thank you for today, for right now, this moment.
- 4:53Speaker 1: I pray, Lord Guy, that this moment will be a
- 4:56Speaker 1: changing or pivotal or just a transformative time for us
- 5:01Speaker 1: to get into. I thank you, Lord God, that your
- 5:03Speaker 1: word is alive, active, sharpen than any double edged sword.
- 5:07Speaker 1: I pray the peace of God over myself, my wife,
- 5:09Speaker 1: our children, our grandchildren, every single person that's on the
- 5:13Speaker 1: other side of the screen and on the other side
- 5:15Speaker 1: of this MC. I pray peace, be still and know
- 5:19Speaker 1: and that God is in you or in your corner
- 5:23Speaker 1: or if you're seeking God. I pray for all those
- 5:26Speaker 1: who are seeking God. God, you will revere yourself to
- 5:29Speaker 1: them because they're seeking You with all their heart and
- 5:32Speaker 1: mind and soul. So I pray peace. I pray that
- 5:36Speaker 1: God's desires would be our desires, and that we would
- 5:39Speaker 1: not focus on anything else but focus on the Christ, Amen,
- 5:43Speaker 1: the King of Kings and Lord of lords. I pray
- 5:46Speaker 1: a head of protection over all our families. I pray
- 5:49Speaker 1: Lord God, health to our bodies, strength to our bones
- 5:52Speaker 1: in the powerful name of Jesus, and I pray that
- 5:54Speaker 1: you would dispatch your arkmen angels to annihilate the tactics
- 5:58Speaker 1: of the enemy or the distraction of the enemy that
- 6:01Speaker 1: try to take us away from your will and purpose,
- 6:04Speaker 1: which to me, I don't think that's possible. Thank you, lot,
- 6:07Speaker 1: God for your will in our lives and your purpose
- 6:10Speaker 1: for our lives. And Jesus Holy Name. My prayer is
- 6:12Speaker 1: by faith and those who agreed we say amen to that. Amen, freelancer,
- 6:17Speaker 1: Monsieur romand thank you so much for coming through. Hello,
- 6:20Speaker 1: my friend, thank you for coming back to the morning Devo.
- 6:23Speaker 1: Let's go for it. Take a minute to share this out,
- 6:25Speaker 1: and when we come back, we'll get right into Matthew
- 6:28Speaker 1: chapter twenty one, verse number thirteen. I'll be right back, man,
- 7:52Speaker 1: we're back. Let's go for it, ladies and gentlemen. Let's
- 7:54Speaker 1: see what the Word of God says today and listen,
- 7:58Speaker 1: take note, take note of what God is doing. This
- 8:00Speaker 1: is Holy Week. Yesterday, from the time of this recording
- 8:03Speaker 1: was Palm Sunday, and today is what Holy Monday. You know.
- 8:07Speaker 1: We name these things, and sometimes I'm like, Okay, where
- 8:11Speaker 1: did that come from? But it's all good. I don't
- 8:13Speaker 1: think there's anything wrong with us trying to put names
- 8:16Speaker 1: on these days that are holy leading to the crucifixion
- 8:21Speaker 1: and then leading to the resurrection of our Lord and savior,
- 8:24Speaker 1: the Lord Jesus. I think we have enough information in
- 8:27Speaker 1: the scriptures to know what Jesus was doing during the week. Amen,
- 8:31Speaker 1: on his way to the cross, Holy Monday, Jesus cleanses
- 8:37Speaker 1: the temple, and man, there's a lot here. You could
- 8:41Speaker 1: call it a figure of speech, you could call it
- 8:43Speaker 1: a metaphor. Amen, but let's call it what Jesus says
- 8:46Speaker 1: in his scripture, in his word. Let's quote the Lord,
- 8:49Speaker 1: Amen on what he's saying here. I'm going to get
- 8:51Speaker 1: this ready for the screen. When I was traveling, man,
- 8:54Speaker 1: this was like really difficult. There's gotta be a better
- 8:58Speaker 1: way to do this well traveling. But I tried, Amen,
- 9:02Speaker 1: and it's worth to try. It was worth to try. Listen,
- 9:05Speaker 1: it was blundered, The voice was echoey, and it was crazy.
- 9:11Speaker 1: I tried, though, and trying trying is not failing. If
- 9:16Speaker 1: you try something it doesn't work, Amen, you didn't fail
- 9:19Speaker 1: you tried, and now you know for next time, maybe
- 9:22Speaker 1: how to do things a little different or a little better. Amen.
- 9:26Speaker 1: I'm honored to be a part of what God is
- 9:28Speaker 1: doing on this side of eternity in these days. Amen.
- 9:31Speaker 1: So clean and close is what we're talking about today
- 9:35Speaker 1: on the morning Devo, Clean and close. I need you
- 9:38Speaker 1: to just think about this, thinking clearly of what Jesus said.
- 9:42Speaker 1: Matthew chapter number and I didn't put the verse up,
- 9:46Speaker 1: but it's Matthew, chapter number twenty one, Verse number thirteen.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Jesus said to them, this is the Lord speaking. It
- 9:53Speaker 1: is written in scripture. My house shall be called a
- 9:58Speaker 1: house of prayer, but you are making it a robber's den.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Now you might be saying, what house is it? Can
- 10:07Speaker 1: you imagine if Jesus was saying, this is just me.
- 10:11Speaker 1: I'm just taking liberty right now, Thank you Lord for
- 10:14Speaker 1: the freedom you give us. Imagine that God is saying
- 10:18Speaker 1: there's a house that could be built with human hands
- 10:24Speaker 1: that he will be residing in, and that he'll call
- 10:28Speaker 1: that house. Whatever we built will be the house of prayer.
- 10:33Speaker 1: And then if we build it, it's also could be
- 10:37Speaker 1: turned into a robber's dan, a den of thieves. You
- 10:41Speaker 1: think that the Lord here I was Jesus, our Lord,
- 10:45Speaker 1: our Savior, is really talking about a structure, or you
- 10:53Speaker 1: think he's talking about us. Think about it closely. Is
- 10:57Speaker 1: God's House a building? Or is god House a temple
- 11:02Speaker 1: that holy ghosts lives inside of? And we are the temples?
- 11:06Speaker 1: Could it be that we are the temple of the
- 11:09Speaker 1: Lord Jesus. Amen, there's a cross reference here Isaiah fifty
- 11:13Speaker 1: six and seven. You could check it out for yourself
- 11:15Speaker 1: and Jeremiah chapter number seven, verse number eleven. Amen. So
- 11:23Speaker 1: that's interesting that the Lord would say that. It's interesting
- 11:26Speaker 1: that he would speak that to the people of his time, Amen,
- 11:31Speaker 1: the people who were in the synagogue at the time,
- 11:33Speaker 1: the people who were the religious leaders of his time.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Could it be that he was not talking about the
- 11:41Speaker 1: structure that they were worshiping in, but he was talking
- 11:44Speaker 1: about the people that he will be living inside of.
- 11:47Speaker 1: I don't know, Amen, I leave that to you and
- 11:51Speaker 1: Holy Spirit to work out. But all of it I
- 11:55Speaker 1: know through this all I know that we're clean and
- 11:57Speaker 1: close by way of Holy Spirit. Jesus says it is
- 12:01Speaker 1: written in scriptures, so he's already established. He's making that
- 12:04Speaker 1: very clear. That it's already written. This is going to
- 12:09Speaker 1: happen regardless what I think. What do you think? The
- 12:12Speaker 1: Word of God is written, The scriptures are already there
- 12:15Speaker 1: a man, and the Word of God never returns back
- 12:17Speaker 1: to him, void, powerless, without purpose. The word of God
- 12:21Speaker 1: always goes out with purpose. Jesus said to them, those people,
- 12:26Speaker 1: them us, maybe even us. Right now, my house shall
- 12:31Speaker 1: be called the house a prayer. And I'm going to
- 12:33Speaker 1: attempt right now to go to Isaiah fifty six and seven,
- 12:39Speaker 1: just to give you some some backup here, Isaiah. And
- 12:46Speaker 1: like I said, I'm gonna try. It's early for me.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Isaiah's fifty six and verse number seven word says, I
- 12:59Speaker 1: will bring them to my holy mountain and make them
- 13:01Speaker 1: joyful in my house of prayer. Amen, They're burnt offerings
- 13:06Speaker 1: and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar. For my
- 13:10Speaker 1: house will be called a house of prayer for who,
- 13:13Speaker 1: for all nations. Right there, the prophet Isaiah is echoing, well,
- 13:20Speaker 1: Jesus is echoing what the prophet says. Amen, I will
- 13:24Speaker 1: bring them to my holy mountain and make them joyful
- 13:26Speaker 1: in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices
- 13:30Speaker 1: will be accepted on my altar. For my house will
- 13:34Speaker 1: be called a house of prayer for all the nations.
- 13:37Speaker 1: And that's why Jesus spoke it in Matthew twenty one thirteen.
- 13:41Speaker 1: He also said it in Mark eleven and seventeen, and
- 13:44Speaker 1: he also said it in Luke chapter nineteen, verse forty six.
- 13:47Speaker 1: So we have this, this quote through the scriptures in
- 13:52Speaker 1: the Gospels, quoted by the Lord himself. Amen, a house
- 13:56Speaker 1: of prayer. I'm going to take it like where the
- 13:59Speaker 1: house of prayer? Amen, And that we are the house
- 14:04Speaker 1: of God, the living temples of God, roaming around the earth,
- 14:09Speaker 1: of giving love and mercy and showing grace to all
- 14:12Speaker 1: the people that we meet. But the one I see you,
- 14:14Speaker 1: good morning God, bless amen. And everybody that's tuned in
- 14:18Speaker 1: one sends a blessing to listeners on the radio, and
- 14:21Speaker 1: so everyone on the low stream, thank you for the blessing.
- 14:24Speaker 1: I received that blessing, my bro. So listen it's there, Jerald.
- 14:28Speaker 1: How about this one Jeremiah seven eleven. Whyn't you just
- 14:32Speaker 1: to think this through? You know, I could be wrong, right,
- 14:35Speaker 1: but the scriptures are always right. The Lord is always right.
- 14:37Speaker 1: I'm just taking liberty here because I'm thinking maybe there's
- 14:41Speaker 1: more to what I thought when Jesus said my house
- 14:45Speaker 1: shall be called the house of prayer. Because if he's
- 14:48Speaker 1: just talking about a specific place of worship, and then man,
- 14:52Speaker 1: we need to go to that place and that specific
- 14:55Speaker 1: place and that church or that synagod, we need to
- 14:59Speaker 1: go there. If that's the only place where he calls
- 15:02Speaker 1: his house. And if you're like me a thinker, I
- 15:06Speaker 1: don't think that the Lord really meant or sometimes we're
- 15:10Speaker 1: taught that it's the house of God, is a place
- 15:13Speaker 1: that you go to. I think the house of God
- 15:15Speaker 1: is us. We are the temple which Holy Spirit dwells in. Amen.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Jeremiah seven to eleven says, as this house which bears
- 15:27Speaker 1: my name become a den of robbers in your sight? Yes,
- 15:30Speaker 1: I too have seen it, declares the Lord. Amen. Now, man,
- 15:37Speaker 1: it could it be that God is seeing us as
- 15:42Speaker 1: his house or is it a structure or building or
- 15:46Speaker 1: a place. And if it is a place, where's the address?
- 15:49Speaker 1: I want to go there? Amen, I want to go
- 15:52Speaker 1: to this house of prayer. I want to go where
- 15:55Speaker 1: God resides. I want to go right because it would
- 15:58Speaker 1: be obvious for everyone. No one wanted to go to
- 16:01Speaker 1: that place. I would want to be there for sure.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Why not? But I think God is bigger than I
- 16:07Speaker 1: don't think any structure or any building can contain God.
- 16:12Speaker 1: Like God could visit if he wants to go anywhere
- 16:14Speaker 1: where he wants, right. But I believe where He dwells
- 16:17Speaker 1: is inside of his children, inside of the kings that
- 16:22Speaker 1: are living on this earth, which is us, sons of
- 16:25Speaker 1: God the King, because he's the King of kings, the
- 16:30Speaker 1: Lord of lords they meant. And I believe his spirit
- 16:34Speaker 1: lives inside of all those whosoever who call upon his
- 16:37Speaker 1: name to be saved. It's in the scriptures right. So
- 16:41Speaker 1: God desires purity, purity in worship, and justice in his house.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Could it be that I could put purity in the
- 16:49Speaker 1: terms of my life, and justice in term of my life,
- 16:52Speaker 1: and in your life, justice, purity, worship, all of it
- 16:58Speaker 1: in your house, in your dwelling, Amen, which is not
- 17:02Speaker 1: an address. I believe we are the house of God.
- 17:07Speaker 1: And like I said, I could be wrong. Study it out.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Let Holy Spirit talk to your spirit, Amen, right now
- 17:13Speaker 1: and see if I'm right? Or or could it be
- 17:16Speaker 1: a metaphor? Right is Jesus speaking metaphorically here, But I
- 17:21Speaker 1: believe if I'm not mistaken, ladies and gentlemen, that's why
- 17:24Speaker 1: we sell people. Read the whole chapter for yourself. Let
- 17:28Speaker 1: me go to it right now, because I just got
- 17:30Speaker 1: a thought. A man, thank you Holy Spirit for this
- 17:33Speaker 1: live download right right in lifetime. Matthew. What did I
- 17:38Speaker 1: say after you? Twenty one first number thirteen? But let
- 17:45Speaker 1: me see what this is all about? And I was right.
- 17:49Speaker 1: This is the triumphant entry of the Lord Jesus. Amen.
- 17:53Speaker 1: This is Palm Sunday like we call it. Right when
- 17:56Speaker 1: he's coming in. They thought he was going to come
- 17:58Speaker 1: in on a horse, right, probably a white horse, a stallion,
- 18:03Speaker 1: to go and take over the government of his time.
- 18:06Speaker 1: But he wasn't coming for that. He was coming humbly
- 18:10Speaker 1: on a donkey. And he went instead of going to
- 18:13Speaker 1: the government buildings like the people thought he was, he
- 18:15Speaker 1: went straight to the synagogue to the church. Amen. So
- 18:21Speaker 1: Jesus shows up people saying, Hosanna, hosanna, all the good
- 18:25Speaker 1: stuff right, comes in on a donkey. So Jesus gave
- 18:31Speaker 1: instructions right to his disciples, says if anyone questions, you
- 18:37Speaker 1: would tell them that the Lord needs them because he
- 18:40Speaker 1: was looking for Let me just read it, Matthew twenty one,
- 18:45Speaker 1: verse one. As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethage
- 18:50Speaker 1: on the amount of olives, Jesus sent to disciples, saying
- 18:53Speaker 1: to them, this is what the instructions he gave to
- 18:55Speaker 1: these two disciples. Go into the village ahead of you,
- 18:58Speaker 1: and at once you will find a donkey tied there
- 19:02Speaker 1: with a colt beside her. Untie them and bring them
- 19:05Speaker 1: to me. If anyone questions, you tell him that the
- 19:08Speaker 1: Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Thank you, Christian Prayer group for sharing my morning devotion.
- 19:17Speaker 1: I'm grateful for your share. This took place to fulfill
- 19:21Speaker 1: with the spoken what was spoken through the prophet. Say
- 19:25Speaker 1: to the daughter Zion, see your King comes to you, gentle,
- 19:29Speaker 1: and riding on a donkey on a colt, the foal
- 19:32Speaker 1: of a donkey. The disciples dead, but he directed them,
- 19:36Speaker 1: brought the donkey and colt, laid their cloaks on them,
- 19:39Speaker 1: and Jesus said on them. A massive crowd spread their
- 19:42Speaker 1: cloaks on the road. They saw the King coming, riding
- 19:46Speaker 1: on a donkey. Hosannah to the son of David blessed
- 19:50Speaker 1: is he who comes to the name of the Lord
- 19:52Speaker 1: Hosanna and the Highest. When Jesus had answered Jerusalem, the
- 19:55Speaker 1: whole city was stirred and asked who is this? Okay,
- 20:01Speaker 1: who is this? They were saying, who he was? It's weird, right,
- 20:04Speaker 1: And then this is when Jesus cleansed to the temple.
- 20:07Speaker 1: Jesus entered the temple. He didn't go to the government
- 20:10Speaker 1: overthrow like they thought he was going to do. He
- 20:12Speaker 1: went to the synagogue, the enter the temple courts. He
- 20:16Speaker 1: drove out all who were buying and selling. There he
- 20:19Speaker 1: overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats
- 20:22Speaker 1: of those selling doves, and he declared to them, it
- 20:25Speaker 1: is written. This is why he said it. My house
- 20:28Speaker 1: shall be called a house of prayer, but you are
- 20:30Speaker 1: making it a den of roberts. Now this is the
- 20:32Speaker 1: other side of the coin, right. We got to look
- 20:34Speaker 1: at the scriptures to be honest with ourselves. That place,
- 20:38Speaker 1: wherever that place was, Maybe some people know where that
- 20:40Speaker 1: place is where he turned over the tables. Maybe he
- 20:43Speaker 1: was something about that specific place was supposed to be
- 20:46Speaker 1: a house of prayer, not a dent of thieve. That
- 20:49Speaker 1: was selling doves, you know, selling all kinds of stuff
- 20:52Speaker 1: right there in front of the in front of the synagogue.
- 20:55Speaker 1: And Jesus was like, nah, we're not having this. That's
- 20:59Speaker 1: but think about it. But you are making adenner these
- 21:02Speaker 1: and then listen to this. After he did that, the
- 21:06Speaker 1: blind and the lane came to him at the temple
- 21:09Speaker 1: and he healed them. So was he really saying that
- 21:13Speaker 1: this place has power? Or is he saying that? Listen,
- 21:16Speaker 1: I'm the onemth of power here, amen, I mean, I
- 21:19Speaker 1: show up. Things are going to happen. So he healed
- 21:23Speaker 1: the blind and the lane came to him and at
- 21:26Speaker 1: the temple and he healed them. But the chief priests
- 21:30Speaker 1: and scribes were indignant when they saw the wonders he performed,
- 21:35Speaker 1: and the children shouting in the temple courts Hosannah to
- 21:38Speaker 1: the son of David. Do you hear what these children
- 21:40Speaker 1: are saying? They asks, yes, Jesus answered, have you never
- 21:43Speaker 1: heard from the mouths of children and infants? You have
- 21:46Speaker 1: ordained praise? So there's a lot here, man, and I
- 21:50Speaker 1: can't unpack this, but listen, it's a morning devo. I'm
- 21:54Speaker 1: just trying to steal to think about what the scriptures
- 21:56Speaker 1: are saying you're cleaning clothes. Don't let the enemy say, oh,
- 21:59Speaker 1: you know what, this is not going to be possible
- 22:01Speaker 1: for you. Amen. You cannot be the temple of God.
- 22:05Speaker 1: There cannot be a house of prayer. That's what the
- 22:07Speaker 1: enemy would tell you, right. But he's a liar. He's
- 22:09Speaker 1: been lying since the beginning. Amen. You could contact me
- 22:12Speaker 1: freelancer right here. You could direct message me, you could
- 22:17Speaker 1: go to the website, go through my contact form. There's
- 22:19Speaker 1: so many ways you could connect with me, my friend,
- 22:22Speaker 1: and you could do that. So man, read the whole chapter,
- 22:28Speaker 1: because then after that happened, he left went out to
- 22:33Speaker 1: the city to Bethany and where he spent the night.
- 22:38Speaker 1: Then he had an encounter with the baron tree. And
- 22:40Speaker 1: I was just talking about this fig tree to somebody
- 22:43Speaker 1: last week. Amen. But read the whole chapter for hisself.
- 22:47Speaker 1: Let the spirit of the lawd speak to your spirit, amen,
- 22:50Speaker 1: and you'll get the revelation. But what I'm getting is
- 22:53Speaker 1: that God's house, what he calls a house of prayer, Amen,
- 22:59Speaker 1: is more than when I'm looking at It's more than
- 23:01Speaker 1: when I'm thinking I believe that I believe the house
- 23:04Speaker 1: of prayer, that he's ultimately talking about is us we
- 23:08Speaker 1: are the house of prayer, and then anything other than that,
- 23:13Speaker 1: we can make it into a den of robbers. Put
- 23:16Speaker 1: it like this, There's people who get the revelation of
- 23:18Speaker 1: the Lord right and God uses them in incredible ways,
- 23:22Speaker 1: and they go and they start ministries, and the ministry
- 23:24Speaker 1: blows up all for the glory of God in the
- 23:26Speaker 1: beginnings for the glory of God. And then I don't know,
- 23:29Speaker 1: maybe semptation, maybe it's just people they get kind of
- 23:34Speaker 1: exalted to higher levels. I see this all the time, unfortunately,
- 23:37Speaker 1: especially on Christian networks on TV. And they get to
- 23:41Speaker 1: a place where they feel like, Wow, I'm somebody here,
- 23:44Speaker 1: bigger than whatever. And then they start using what God
- 23:50Speaker 1: reveals to them as a way or method to gain riches.
- 23:56Speaker 1: And I think that's when that message becomes robbery, becomes
- 24:03Speaker 1: a robbers. Then they start taking what God gave and
- 24:07Speaker 1: selling it all for gain and profit and just saying
- 24:11Speaker 1: that we have to build a house of God. See
- 24:14Speaker 1: how that it's like semantics wordplay. Oh you know, you
- 24:20Speaker 1: so into my ministry. We could build this big, entire facility,
- 24:25Speaker 1: the House of God. You see that. I don't think
- 24:27Speaker 1: that's what God is talking about. I don't think the
- 24:29Speaker 1: House of God is a building. I believe the House
- 24:31Speaker 1: of God is us. Like I said, I could be wrong.
- 24:36Speaker 1: You know, I'm not going to debate and argue about it.
- 24:38Speaker 1: But check it out for yourself. Look at the scriptures
- 24:41Speaker 1: to see what God speaks to you. I believe he's
- 24:43Speaker 1: telling me, and he's been telling me for years, to
- 24:46Speaker 1: listen to the house that he's talking about. That he's
- 24:48Speaker 1: going a house of prayer men. And the spirit from
- 24:51Speaker 1: which he wants his spirit to be in is not
- 24:54Speaker 1: in a specific building. Yes, he can visit by way
- 24:57Speaker 1: of Holy Spirit. He can send forth ark we name
- 25:00Speaker 1: just minis the angels, worrying angels, amen to any place.
- 25:05Speaker 1: That's why I love to dispatch angels, because they're waiting
- 25:07Speaker 1: for us to give them the word of what to do.
- 25:10Speaker 1: They already know their assignment. But imagine we could pray
- 25:14Speaker 1: forth arkreen angels to territories, to our houses, to our schools,
- 25:19Speaker 1: to our workplaces. So why not Amen? If God gives
- 25:23Speaker 1: us that authority, we could tell angels or acts of
- 25:27Speaker 1: angels amen to do what God wants them to do
- 25:30Speaker 1: according to His purpose over our lives, and they respond,
- 25:34Speaker 1: I don't know. I believe in angels. The angels of
- 25:36Speaker 1: heaven are spoken about a man all throughout the scriptures,
- 25:40Speaker 1: so I have no problem setting forth angels by the
- 25:43Speaker 1: authority of the power of the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.
- 25:47Speaker 1: And you should be able to do that too, if
- 25:48Speaker 1: you're a king, kingdom, person, a son, a daughter of God. Amen,
- 25:54Speaker 1: set forth them arkreen angels. We are having an angel
- 25:57Speaker 1: that's assigned to me according to how I see the scriptures,
- 25:59Speaker 1: that the Angel of the Lord is assigned right to
- 26:02Speaker 1: all those who love God. Amen. There's an angel that's
- 26:06Speaker 1: assigned to us that really protects us, guides us, guards
- 26:09Speaker 1: us a man from the wives of the enemy's schemes,
- 26:13Speaker 1: especially when the enemy is trying to do harm to us.
- 26:15Speaker 1: I don't think he could do anything outside of the
- 26:18Speaker 1: will and purpose of God in our lives unless we
- 26:21Speaker 1: willfully go to places that we should not be, willfully
- 26:25Speaker 1: deny Holy Spirit. We do that, then you know there's
- 26:28Speaker 1: some dark gray areas there. Good morning, Sistance, Joanne, I
- 26:31Speaker 1: see you. Good morning God, bless you, my system, my friend.
