  Speaker 1: Hallelujah. 20th chapter, Gospel of St.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: John, the 18th verse through the 22nd verse, and then
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: we're going to read 26 through 31. When you have it,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: say amen. Would you stand to your feet and let's
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: read from God's word as a family. I like to
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: speak the word out into the atmosphere. If there's any
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: devils around, they can hear the word of God.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Amen. We speak it out.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Somebody's arthritis will leap out of their knee tonight if
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: they just hear the word of the Lord. The 18th
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: verse through the 22nd verse. Let's read together. I may
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: drop out, but you continue. Mary Magdalene came and told
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: the disciples that she had seen the Lord and that
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: he had spoken these things unto her.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Then the same day.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: 1 Peter 3, verses 1-8. He breathed on them, and
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: faith unto them, receive ye the Holy Ghost. Verse 26,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: And after eight days again.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: 1.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Timothy 3, verses 1-10.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Continue.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: Which are not written in this book.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: But these are written that ye might believe that Jesus
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: ye might have life through his name. Can you say amen?
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Look just a moment at that 19th verse. That's where
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: we're going to focalize our attention for this evening. Then
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: the same day at evening being the first day of
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: the week. When the doors were shut, where the disciples
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: stood in the midst and saith unto them, Peace be
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: unto you. My subject tonight is behind closed doors. Behind
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: closed doors. Let's pray while we're standing. Spirit of the
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Lord God, fall in this place for your own purpose.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Manifest and reveal, illuminate and declare.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Your glory unto this house.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Gracious God that you are, provoke us to move into
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: new dimensions and realms of authority over the enemy. I
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: thank you for what you've already done. I thank you
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: for what you're doing right now. But most of all,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I thank you for what you're about to do. Have
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: your way, God. In the mighty name of Jesus. In
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Jesus' name we pray. Amen and amen. You may be
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: seated in the presence of our God. Thank you, Jesus.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: One of the things that I think that I most
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: enjoy about the word of the Lord is God's candidness
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: in giving us a total panoramic view of the lives
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: of the people that he uses. I'm going to ask
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: the brother to keep the monitors up and take a
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: little bass out. I brought my own bass drum with me.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Is that all right? God is candid enough to give
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: us a panoramic, a total view of spectrum of the
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: lives of the people that he uses because he has
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: in mind certain things that we need to see so
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: that we can relate to the men in the scriptures.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: It's important that we see the total spectrum of walking
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: with God. Because we have a tendency to be superficial
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: in our understanding about God. When we get together most
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: of the time, we share things with one another that
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: are not altogether helpful. But they are acceptable. And there
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: comes a weariness in your spirit when people are just
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: telling you what's acceptable and not sharing what is really helpful.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: We need to be able to see the total spectrum
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: of a progressive walk with God. We need to understand
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: your successes, and we thank God for all of the
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: accolades that should be accredited to your account. But we
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: also need to hear about your fears and failures and frustrations.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: So that there might be some point of relativity between
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: you and us. If you're really going to help me.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I need to not understand only that you got there.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: But how you got there. So that I can methodically
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: follow reasoning in my mind. A progression and not be
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: discouraged by your testimony. But be blessed by your testimony.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: When you tell me that the Lord healed you.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: And you don't tell me that you.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Prayed a long time and had to quote many scriptures
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: and went through many sick days before the manifestation of
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: your healing, then your testimony doesn't necessarily do in me
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: what it ought to do because it discourages what is
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: meant to be uplifted. And I just praise God for
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: sharing that. Ordinary events, not just successes. I praise God
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: for showing us that there are times that even those
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: who walked the most closely with him did not understand
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: what in the world he was doing. Because sometimes I
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: do not know what God is doing. Sometimes he goes
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: right when I was sure he was going to go left.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: And I've already told everybody he was going left and
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: he goes right and he doesn't even tell me. And
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: then I've got to adjust the message to what God
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: has done. There are times that I think he's going
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: to establish it one way and then he deviates and
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: digresses and goes to a cross when I've already told
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: everybody he's going.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: To a throne.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: And there are times that disappointment grips my theology. My
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: message is destroyed. My point of reference is totally rearranged.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: And I'm left standing there with wrinkles on my forehead saying, God,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: what are you doing? The disciples were in that type
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: of dilemma. And it's when you become confused about what
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: God is doing that it forces you to leave the
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: spotlight and recede back into the shadows and shut yourself
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: in behind closed doors. I used to not want to
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: go through times of isolation. But it is in an
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: isolation that revelation is provided. I used to think that
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: the best times I could have was when everybody was
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: around saying praise the Lord and thank you Jesus and
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: glory to God. I thought that my strength was really
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: perfected in crowds. I didn't realize that the best moments
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: of your Christian growth happen when nobody's.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Around but you and God.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: It is there that God perfects not only your ministry,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: but your motives. And make sure that not only are
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: you doing the right thing, but that you're doing it
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: for the right reasons. For if our motives are not right,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: then ultimately our effect will not be right. Because while
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: men judge on the outward appearance, God looks at the heart.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: And if you are not intending to do it for
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: a right reason, then it's burned in the fire and
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: it's good for nothing. The word of God is quick
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: and sharper than any two-edged sword. Casting of thunder, body, soul,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: and spirit, bone and marrow of the scripture. Talks about
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: spirit and soul and is a discerner of the thoughts
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: and the intents.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Of the heart. That's pretty sharp.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: There's never been a surgeon who's made a scalpel that
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: could get in between the thoughts and the intents of
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: the heart. But God can cut in between your thoughts,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: your fantasies, your dreams.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: And your ideas.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: If you don't want him to get in your business,
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: don't talk to God. Because God will get in your business.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Not too long ago, my mother was feeling a little
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: under the weather. And, you know, as people get up
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: in years, they become more vulnerable to certain sicknesses and ailments.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: And we told her, Mother, you better check that out
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: because you're not feeling good. She was gaining weight and
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: something was awry. She went to the doctor and the
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: doctor said that she had a cluster of tumors in
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: the lower part of her stomach that I think he
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: said they were about as big as a grapefruit. And
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: we were very, very concerned. I've already lost my father,
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: and we were very, very concerned about my mother. And
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: we just began to pray and began to believe God.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: And my mother went in the hospital, and they found
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: out that the tumors were benign. And we praised the
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Lord for that. They took the tumors out, and she
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: went through the stages of recovery. And I began to
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: understand that healing is a process. No matter what kind
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: of healing you're talking about, you don't get over anything instantly.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: It takes time for you to get back up to
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: stuff again. And when mother came out of surgery, we
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: were happy that it was not cancerous, but Lord, she
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: was in so much pain.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: And I thought they were going to baby.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Her and nurse her because I am my mother's youngest
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: child and very, very, very partial to her. And I thought,
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm taking canceling engagements and hanging around, you know.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Just in case. And the nurse that took care of
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: my mother was the meanest, most vicious, despicable creature I
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: have ever seen in my life. She came in the
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: room the next morning and she said, get up out
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: of the bed. We need you to walk. Come on,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: come on.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: You can get up. My mother was groaning in pain.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: She jerks her up and says, you've got to walk.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: The doctor says you've got to walk.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I had to go in the bathroom and speak in tongues.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: I hope I'm not ruining my chances of coming back.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: But the real truth of the matter is Adam stood up.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I didn't feel no Christ, no anointing. Flesh came all
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: over my head. I felt like a samurai warrior.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I was ready to boogie.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: And I know you wouldn't have done it, but you
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: pray for me. She and I had a long conversation, amen,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: and no scriptures at all. But I noticed something about
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: the evening shift nurse. When she came on and she
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: got ready to walk my mother, she says, now we
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: need you to get up and walk.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: She says, but just sit up first. Take your time.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Get your breath.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Easy, not too fast. She says, now just put your
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: weight down gently. Take a step. I'm going to help you.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: She says, take another step. And she dealt with my
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: mother so gently. Well, being the kind of person, I said,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: what is wrong with the woman on the day shift?
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: She said, well, what do you mean? I said, that
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: woman acts like a gorilla. And she said, well, she said, really?
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: She said, Reverend Jake, she is a very good nurse.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: And I didn't get with that. She says she's excellent,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: she's well educated, and she graduated on a honor roll
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: out of her school, and she came highly recommended. She said,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: if there is any difference between she and I, it
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: would have to lie in this fact. She said, you see,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: not too long ago, I went through the same surgery
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: that your mother is going through. And I understand how
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: your mother feels. And you know, God began to take
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: my mind out of the hospital into the ministry. And
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I began to understand that if you're really going to
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: be able to minister to somebody, you have to be
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: able to relate to.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: How they feel.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Without relativity, you've just got theology and information and doctrine
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: and philosophy. And it really won't help anybody until you've
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: been where I've been and felt what I've felt. Jesus
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: told the disciples, he said, when you get ready to pray,
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: don't pray like the Pharisees.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: They're always trying.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: To impress people publicly and to be profound publicly. He said,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: but when you really want to break through, enter into
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: your secret.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Closet and shut the door.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: For I am the God who hears in secret and
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: will reward you openly. God is going to pay you
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: on the basis of what happens to you.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Behind closed doors.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: He's not paying for your public oratorical ability. He's not
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: paying much for your theology or your divinity or your seminary.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: He's not paying much for how well you sing or
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: how well you're able.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: To do or how well you move the crowd.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: God is really going to bless you on the times
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: when you're shut up in a room and With silent
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: tears streaming down your face.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: With moanings and groanings.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Like Jesus the Bible said he groaned within himself. A
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: groan so soft that the person laying next to you
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: cannot hear it.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: But a groan so loud that heaven says I hear
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: the cry of the righteous.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: God is going to reward you for what happens to
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: you behind those doors. The disciples were shut up in
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: the room. They were not seeking the Lord. They were
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: shut up with the door closed for fear of the Jews.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: One of the things that church people, we have got
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: to be careful about when we get together is that
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: we make it count because we can get together and
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: do absolutely nothing Have you ever gotten around with a
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: bunch of ministers, just a bunch of ministers over at
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: Denny's or somewhere just sitting down drinking some coffee and
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: eating a hot dog with mustard on it or something.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: And everybody's sitting around trying to be so impressive. How
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: many of you running in Sunday school, Doc? How's your
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: building fun coming, Doc? How many people in your building say, Doc?
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Who have you preached for lately, Doc? How many are
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: you taking in on Sunday, Doc?
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: Hey, listen.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: When we get together without Jesus, we just get.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: On one another's neck.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: You're never going to get a breakthrough getting together with flesh.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: We need Jesus to.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Come where we are.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: We need a move from God.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: As long as they were assembled together without Jesus, the
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: only real emotion was fear. Whenever we get together without him,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: we just intimidate each other.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, help me, Lord, tonight.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I thank God because in spite of their isolation, And
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: even their frustration, in spite of the fact that they
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: were shut up behind closed doors, I thank God that.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: He came where they were.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: That when they were no longer interested in pursuing him,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: that he pursued them and came, and in spite of
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: the obstacle, he came through the door. Have you ever
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: had a door up in your life, a wall or
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: a barrier, and God had to get through it to
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: get to you, but he loved you enough to deal
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: with your hang-ups and all of your inhibitions? Have you
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: ever had God walk through a door.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: To come where you are when nothing.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Else would help and nobody else would help you? I
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: pray that for.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Being able to walk through the door.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: He'll come where you are.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: He stepped through the door. Began to minister to them.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Whenever God gets ready to do something really profound, he
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: does it behind closed doors.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: When the widow was.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: All upset, she said, I've got two sons and we
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: don't have nothing but a pot of oil. And he said,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: go send your sons out into the community and borrow
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: empty vessels.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: You're in debt. He says, get in deeper debt. strange
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: get in more debt borrow a.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Bunch of vessels and borrow not a few and.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Bring them into.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: The house and shut the door and when she brought
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: the vessels into the house and shut the door it provoked.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: The oil to begin to pour.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: There is an anointing that you will never get in
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: a crowd it only happens when you come before God
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: emptily and openly and say, Lord, the light's out in
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: the church and the crowd is gone and I need
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: you to revive me and refresh me and refurbish me
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: and enable me to do it again.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: And the all will flow. The all will flow behind me.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Close doors. If you really want to be anointed, come
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: out of all.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Your little church clothes, little religious face. Take your pastor's
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: hat off and take your evangelist badge off.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Just shut yourself up.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: And say, Lord, I've been encouraging other people, but I've
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: discouraged myself. I've given all my courage away, and now
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: I need some courage to go on. Can you send
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: me any courage? Can you send me any grace? The
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Bible said, as long as there was an empty vessel
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: behind closed doors, the oil just slid. I believe that
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: if we would just open up tonight and just lay
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: bare before God, that God.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Would release oil in this place.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Because sometimes when you're involved in ministry, you can't admit
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: that you need more oil. People demand that you be
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: such a hero that you never get to open up and.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Say, God, I'm tired.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I'm tired and I need to be revived and refurbished
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: and refreshed. When Jairus came to Jesus and told him
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: that his daughter was dead, Jesus walked into the funeral,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: stepped past all the mourners, went up to the little
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: girl's room and shut the door and spoke to a
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: dead girl and said, Talitha, Kuma, Damsel, arise. And he
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: woke her up, not publicly, but privately. He revived the
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: dead thing In private places.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: When everybody was sure she was finished, he shut.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: Up in the room with her and told her something
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: that made her able to sit up on the bed.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Some of you are surrounded by people who are sure
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: you're finished, but the devil is alive. Oh, God's going
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: to come in the room and tell you something that
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: revives you and refreshes you. Tell him to send the
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: flowers back. It's not going to be a funeral. Look
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: at somebody and tell them it's time to get up.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: There's something that God wants to tell you that will
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: stand you up on your.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Feet to life. I'm not finished with you. Get up.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Put all the mourners out.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Get up.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: I'm going to use you. All of this happens. All
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: of this happens behind closed doors. Lazarus rose from the dead.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Out from the vision of the people. When they saw him,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: he was already leaping and moving and going forward. I
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: believe it's in meetings like this that God calls us
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: together so that he can rejuvenate us and revive us
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: so that when we get back into the mainstream of
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: our calling that we will be leaping and working and
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: going forward in his name. Even Jesus woke up behind
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: closed doors, shut up in a tomb. Unlike Lazarus, he
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: didn't have anybody to loose him.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: But when he woke up, he loosed himself.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: And you know, sometimes you got to loose yourself. You
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: can't wait on anybody to unwrap you. Every now and then, preacher,
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: you got to go in the closet somewhere, shut yourself
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: up in the bathroom and loose yourself.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Jesus didn't have anybody to loose him.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: He simply loosed himself. Loosed himself, stepped out of the
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: wrappings and held Lazarus bound and incompetent and unable to
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: be released and stepped out naked, didn't have anything to wear,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: folded up a death napkin and said, if I'm going
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: to walk out of here, I'm going to need some clothes.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: spoke him an outfit into existence, stepped over into a
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: gardener's chair, walked out in the gardener and.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Said, Mary, she said.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Rapona, sometimes you've got to encourage yourself, loose yourself, put
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: on the garment of praise for the spirit of heaven.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Step out in the gardener and preach the word.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Ah, he laid my feet. Well, let me get to
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: the crux of this. Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory. Glory.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Put your hands together and let's celebrate the Lord tonight. Glory.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: He came through the door.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: God assumes the responsibility of reconciliation. In every case, it's
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: always God reconciling himself unto us. God was in Christ
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: reconciling the world unto himself. It was not Adam that
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: searched through the garden looking for God. It was God
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: who searched through the garden looking for Adam, saying, Adam,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: where art thou to Elijah?
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: He said, what doest thou here? In every instance, it's
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: God who assumes.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: The responsibility of reconciliation.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: And even here, he walks alone. Through the door. But
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: he does something that we must note.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: Having walked through the door, his appearance did not impress them.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: Neither did his method of coming into the room impress them.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: And so he gave his little message. He walked through
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: the door and said, Peace be unto you. But his
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: message failed to impress them. He said the right thing,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: but it didn't have the right effect. Peace be unto you.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Those were the words that impressed the winds and waves.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Even the winds and waves laid down when he said,
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: peace be still. But now his disciples, the government of
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: the early church has assembled together and he said the
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: right thing and has not gotten the right.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Have you ever preached the right message and got the
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: wrong result?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Have you ever set out to do something good and
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: did not get the effect.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: That you thought it ought to have?
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: He said, peace be unto you, but they were not impressed.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: We are dealing with a generation of people who are
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: not easily impressed. They've seen all the gimmicks and tricks,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: all the theatrics. They've heard all the great speakers. All
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: religions have their speakers who are prominent and profound regardless
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: of their message.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: They all have speakers who can move crowds.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: And the world is not impressed. Jesus walked through the door.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: to his own leadership, and gave a message that failed
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: to impress. And when he said, peace be unto you,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: and it moved nobody, he moved into the mainstay of ministry.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: He began to uncover his wounds. It won't be your
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: message that moves this crowd we wrestle with today. It
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: won't be your theatrics or your style of delivery that
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: moves this crack-infested age in which we war with today.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: They are not impressed by all of your oratorical skills.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: They have already heard the finest.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Swellings and risings of voice.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: They've already heard all of the accolades and degrees and education.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: But what we need is believable heroes who are not
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: afraid to show their world. Some of us are hiding
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: the very thing we ought to expose, our vulnerability, our woundings.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Our cuttings, our bleeding.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: We need believable heroes. We don't need Superman. We need
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Clark Kent. We need somebody we understand. Take off your suit.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Put your tape in the closet. We need somebody. give
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: me a hero that I understand if you really want
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: to impress me and move me and change me don't
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: tell me all about your successes amen show me your
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: wounds show me what you went through To get where
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: you are. are. Show me how you bled to get
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: where you are. Show me how you suffered to get
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: where you are.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Because pain is.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Something everybody can relate to. Let me know that it
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: caused something to become great. Nobody can give you greatness.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Everybody has their own cross. The criteria for being a
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Christian is very simple. Believe on the Lord Jesus and
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: thou shalt be saved. But for a disciple, there's a
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: deeper level of commitment. If you're going to be a disciple,
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: you got to pick.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: Up a cross and deny yourself.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: And begin to walk with something on your back. And
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: some of you are here tonight and people are grinning
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: at you and you're smiling at everybody, but they don't
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: know that you're walking with something on your back. The
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Lord woke me up the other morning.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: You know what he said to me?
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: He said, one of the problems with our people is
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: that they fail to recognize their cross.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Because we're looking.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: For two-by-fours that have been nailed together and varnished with
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: polyurethane and sanded down. We're looking for nice little pretty
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: theatrical MGM-type crosses. But somebody's cross... Is there marriage? I
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: want to help you identify some crosses. Isn't it amazing
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: how you can be so successful in one area?
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, you can't even smile now, can you? Because you
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: don't want anybody to know that there might be some
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: area in your life But.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: I guarantee you for every person in this room, somewhere
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: there is a cross in your life. You might not
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: talk about it. You might not admit it. You might
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: always act like everything's all right. You might skip and
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: dance and.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: Flip and flop.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: But somewhere in your life, there's something that makes you
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: cry and groan.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: When you think about it.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: Everybody, God, Jesus has got a cross. Something you're nailed
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: to that hurts you. A ministry that's not growing.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: A cross.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: A people who do not appreciate you. A job that
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: seems like it's not going anywhere. A child that disrespects you.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: A failure, a fault, a flaw.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: A breaking. A cracking. An incident. An occurrence.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Everybody has a cross. But there is glory. In the cross.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Oh hallelujah.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: We glory in our infirmities.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: We glory because we begin to understand that it is
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: not our message that's going to move the world.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: It is our wounds. And when you pray, Lord, use me,
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: use me, use me.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: You might as well have said, crucify me, crucify me.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Because it's not your peace beyond to you. But when
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: you show them your wounds. Touch three people and tell
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: them I need to see your wounds. So I can
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: understand what I'm going through. I need to see your wounds.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: So I don't feel so lonely. I need to see
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: your wounds. So I can understand what's going on.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: In my life. I need to see your wounds.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: You act like there's nothing wrong with you and I'm
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: bleeding right beside you.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Let me see your wounds. Jesus said, look at here, boys.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Exposed his wounds. The Bible says, then.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: They were glad when they saw the Lord.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: And they saw his wounds. Now they were impressed. And
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: then he says, peace be unto you. And they begin
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: to rejoice.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: The real credentials behind your message is your pain. The
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: thing that made the nurse such a good nurse is
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: her past pain. That has to be the motivation that
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: makes you keep loving and keep giving when people have
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: misused you and abused you and don't appreciate you. There
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: has to be something down in your guts. It cannot
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: be money. It cannot be low self-esteem. It cannot be
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: somebody looking for recognition. It cannot be politics. It cannot
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: be position. There has to be something down inside of you.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Every time you see somebody staggered to an altar that
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: makes you relate to their pain because if you don't
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: terror about dinner. You'll never be able to help them.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: And every now and then, God.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Will let you go through something.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: I don't care how high you are, how much money
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: you got, how well you preach, how many people are
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: in your church.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I don't care. Every now and then, God.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Will drive a nail somewhere in your life so that
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: you can be touched by By the feeling of somebody
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: else's infirmity.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: I sense the Holy.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: Spirit saying, Worship. Lift your hand and begin to worship.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: All over the house, just begin.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: To worship him.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: Somebody's worshiping with a nail in them right now. Somebody's
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: worshiping with a spear in their side right now.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Yes, yes, yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Something you can't even talk to nobody about. You can't
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: admit it to all your friends and folk around you.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: They don't even know that it is.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: As bad as it is. God, we glorify you.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: Like Job, though he slays me, yet shall I trust him.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Oh! I'm hurting, but I'm trusting you. I'm bleeding, but
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: I'm trusting you.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: If I got to hang out here for a long time,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: I know in the end result, you're going to raise
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: me up again. God said trust me you might not
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: understand me but trust me you're going through changes but
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: trust me things are not like you thought they ought
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: to flow but trust me somebody you trusted in broke
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: your heart but God said trust me you don't know
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: who to talk to you can't tell your friends from
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: your enemies but God said trust me you're going through
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: a shaking and breaking.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: But God said trust me.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: You're going to see the glory in the cross before
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: it's over. You're going to see why you had to
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: go through what you're going through. Get where you are.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: You're going to see why you had to be treated
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: like you were treated. You're going to see why you
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: had to go this route, why you had to be
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: high and stretch wide, become vulnerable, and bleed in front
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: of folks that you didn't know whether they cared about
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: you or not. You're going to see why Jesus couldn't
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: say a mumbling word. You're going to see why you
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: had to hold your peace and swallow your pain and
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: keep on preaching while you're dying on the cross. You're
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: going to see why you had to keep helping people.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: While you were dying on the inside. I believe that
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: for every pain, there ought to be a power. I
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: believe that.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: I believe for every suffering, there ought to be a
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: resurrection police.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: I believe that when you.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: Get through what you've got to go through, That God
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: is going to come out of the secret closet with
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: a power that you never had before. I believe that
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: your latter day is going to be greater than your
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: former day. I believe that God's going to bring you
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: to a place of impartation. You've already been through isolation,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: but when this is over, You're going to move in
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: the impartation. You're going to be able to walk in
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: the room and breathe on people and make a difference
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: in their life. You're going to be able to reach
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: out to somebody and turn their life around.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: When it's over, you'll be able to impart life out
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: of your pain.
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: You can't breathe on anybody. Till they sing your wounds.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: People are going to be moved.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: They're going to be touched. They're going to be. different.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: God has predestined to raise up a generation of warriors
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: who are able to breathe on wounded souls and impart life.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: God has predestined that you ought to make a difference
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: in your community.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: In your city, in your family, on your church.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: God has predestined, in spite of your personal pain, God's
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: going to use you. And when you breathe on them,
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: you're going to get delivered. Tell somebody, get ready for
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: God to use you. Get ready for God to use you. Oh,
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: you don't sound like you really expect nothing. Get ready
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: for God to use you. Get ready for God to
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: use you. Get ready for God to use you. Get ready,
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: get ready. If you've been going through all kind of pain,
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: if you've been bleeding and cut up and hacked up
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: and sawed under and left laying for dead, get ready for.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: God to use you.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: If you've been crying behind closed doors, groaning inside.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: Of yourself and felt.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: Like giving up, get ready for.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: God to use you.
• 40:30

  Speaker 2: get ready get ready.
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: Get ready hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah shake hands with.

  Speaker 1: Three people tell them something good is going.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: To come out of this.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: Something good is going to come out of it. Something
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: good is going to come out of it. You got
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: tears right now, but something good is going to come
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: out of it.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: You've been at the end of your rope, but something.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: Good is going to come out of it. You don't
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: know who to talk to, but something good is going
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: to come out of it. You've been puked and scorned,
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: but get ready. Something good is coming out of it.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Say it. Hallelujah.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: Hallelujah.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: Hallelujah.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: The devil don't even know what you mean.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: But hallelujah.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Hallelujah. Oh, yeah.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Yeah, Lord. Yeah, Lord. Yeah, Lord. Yeah.
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: Oh, Lord.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, Lord.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: Listen here.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: My ministry is primarily to hurting people. And I have
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: job security. Because there are a lot of hurting people
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: in the church. We get saved.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: We go to work.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: We hold positions. We build ministries. We do works. Outside
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: we do fine. But behind closed doors. Nobody really knows.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: What's going on. I know you've heard some powerful messages.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: The lineup you had here has been incredible. I don't
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: even have to have been here to know what happened
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: in this place. But my function, my purpose in being
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: here is to bring hurting people to a place of healing.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: There's some pastors and some leaders. When you get back home,
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: you're going to have to be the prayer and not
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: the prayee.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: You're going to have.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: To always have a word for everybody. People who don't
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: have a word for you. There's some laymen, some people
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: in leadership who are just known to encourage other people.
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: But down on the inside, you're discouraged and you need
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: some courage yourself. And the Lord sent me here to
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: just agree with you for healing in your hurting places.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: That your wounds would not give you so much pain.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: that you become distracted from your purpose. If it's all
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: right for just a moment, I would like to call
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: the hurting people.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: I don't care who you are or how many members.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: You got or what you drive or where you live
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: because none of.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: That stops pain.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: I would like to call those people to just gather
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: around the altar for a moment I just want to
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: pray with you. There's something God wants to do in
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: your life. Preacher, teacher, deacon, elder, missionary. It's something God
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: sent you here to get for you. Not just for
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: your church. Not just for your ministry. Not just technique.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: Not just church growth. There's something God wants to do
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: for you. Somebody's in a battle right now.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: And you're wounded and you're bleeding.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: We're celebrating, but you can't really celebrate because your wounds
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: have distracted you. But God wants to do something for
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: you today.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Come on.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: Don't worry about what nobody thinks. You didn't come here
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: to worry about people. There's something he wants to do.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: Come on. Come on. Thank you, Jesus. Call him. Call him.
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: You're going to see a change in the days ahead.
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: God wants to heal you while you're here. He wanted
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: you to be here tonight.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: Tonight is your night.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: This is just for you. This is just for your wounds.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: This is just for your broken places. This is just
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: for what has you closed behind doors.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Come on, come on, come on.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: Just begin to worship him. We're waiting in his presence.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: We're waving our needs before him.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus.

  Speaker 3: Amen.
• 46:45

  Speaker 2: Lift your hands up right where you are. God had
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: to take you this way He had to break you
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: because he's getting ready to bless you. Like you've never
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: been blessed before. Out of your own woundings, you're going
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: to touch people you could have never reached before. Out
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: of your own pain, you're going to get the fortitude
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: and the tenacity to keep on reaching, reaching, reaching. Every
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: time you reach out to help somebody, you're going to
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: see you. You're going to be patient with folk that
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: everybody else don't want to be bothered.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: With because you're going to relate to their dilemmas. God
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: wants to use you. Hallelujah. Lift those hands up and

  Speaker 2: The devil don't want you to have no joy. He
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: wants you to give other folks joy and not have
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: no joy yourself. He wants you to encourage other people
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: and be discouraged, but the devil is alive. God said
• 48:26
