  Speaker 1: Coming up on the Potter's Touch.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: So you know if.
• 0:04
  Speaker 3: His blood reached 2,000 years and caught you on the altar,
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: you know he can reach up to this week and
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: catch you where you are and redeem you from sin
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: and death. He couldn't just die for your past and
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: then have to get up and die again every time
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: you mess up.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: That's too much work.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: That's why he's seated on the right hand of the
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: majesty on high.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: It's finished. It's paid for.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: Whatever you did, about to do, gonna do, will do,
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: have done, it's already paid for.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: By the blood.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: This is the Potter's Touch.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Welcome to the Potter's Touch. I'm your host for today,
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: Sarah Jakes. I must be honest. If I tried to
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: explain this message, I would definitely get it wrong. There's
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: something about the way Bishop reveals the heart of God
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: in this message out of service that you will not
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: want to miss. Listen with an open heart. Be ready
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: to be honest and know for sure. that your life
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: is going to be changed.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: The Bible here says the former treaties have I made,
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: O Theophilus, is in reference to the Gospel of St. Luke.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: He said, everything that I have written before, formerly, is
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: all that Jesus began both to do and to teach.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: The same writer, it is supposed, the same writer, who
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: wrote the book of Acts is the same writer who
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: wrote the Gospel of Saint Luke. In actuality, many scholars
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: think that these are really one book that has been
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: divided into two parts. The Gospel of Saint Luke focuses
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: on the former treaties of all that Jesus began both
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: to do and to teach. The book of Acts, I
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: almost said the Gospel of Acts, is a continuation of
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: that tradition Christ moving. Only now he is not moving
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: in flesh. He's moving in the church. In Luke he
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: is the dwell amongst us God. I am with you.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: I dwell amongst you. His name should be called Emmanuel.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: God tabernacled with us which literally means the dwell amongst
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: us God. In Acts he is the dwell in us God.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: The God that has been with you. now takes his
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: residence inside of you. The title of the book is
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: The Acts of the Apostles. I've always taken a little
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: issue with that. Because when you really start studying the book,
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: it is not so much the Acts of the Apostles,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: but it is the Acts of the Holy Spirit through
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: the Apostles. So the spirit who operated with Christ in
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: the earth and has been with us has now moved
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: in us and continued his work through us. And so
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: the theme and the focus that I want you to
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: get that Luke is conveying, the former treaties have I
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: made on Theophilus of all that Jesus began with. both
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: to do and to teach. All that he began, and
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: it is interesting that he says all that he began
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: both to do and to teach because he obviously identifies
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: that the work of Christ is not finished. The work
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: of Christ is not finished.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: The work of.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Christ is not finished. Redemption is finished. I know, I
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: hear you saying, oh, wait a minute, Bishop, he died
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: on the cross and said it is finished. But not
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: his work But the transaction that redeemed you, it is finished.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: He shed his blood on the cross and said, I
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: have finished paying the price for your sins.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Shed my blood.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: My blood is so efficacious, so immutable, so unchangeable that
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: not only did I pay for the sins of the past,
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: paying for the sins of the past to the degree
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: that The graves opened up all over Jerusalem and dead
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: men were seen walking the streets of Jerusalem.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: His blood reached back and got the.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Saints of old who had no place, no place prepared
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: for them and released them from the dungeons of waiting
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: and liberated them into the opulent light of a God
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: who has paid the price for you to ride into
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: another dimension. So the blood goes backwards to the lowest valley.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: It goes backwards to the deepest history. It goes backwards
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: to the ancient of days. It goes backwards to the
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Old Testament saints. It goes back to those who waited
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: on him to shed his blood. And when he said
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: it is finished. all lift up your head oh ye
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: gates be ye lifted up ye everlasting doors the king
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: of glory shall come in who is the king of
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: glory the lord strong and mighty who is the king
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: of glory the lord mighty and battle lift up your
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: head oh ye gates he says what you've been waiting
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: on just in here hallelujah i'm gonna bust the gates
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: of hell wide open so that.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: The captive souls.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Can escape and dead men were seen walking the streets
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: of jerusalem but the blood didn't just reach backwards.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: It reached in the present.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Tense of the moment and caught Mary Magdala and delivered
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: her from her whorish ways. It delivered all of the
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: sins of the world that had taken over the era
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: in which he lived in. It eradicated all of the
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: issues that had caused Thomas to doubt, caused Peter to curse.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: cause adultery and a whoremongering to be so pervasive in
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: his age his blood was relevant to the moment that
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: he lived in it was the good news it was
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: the gospel it was the power so not only did
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: it reach backwards but it was a present help It
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: was a present help.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: It was a relevant help. It is a now help.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: It is a help that encapsulates this present moment. So
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: much so that while he's dying, he says to the thief,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: this day shall thou be with me in paradise. Not
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: just yesterday, but right now. Where you are right now.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: What I'm shedding is strong enough to wash away what
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: you did. then I dare remind you that it reaches forward.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: It reaches forward into the future so that Christ died 2,000
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: years ago. We are in the future, but he died
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: so well that before you were ever born, much less sin,
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: he had already paid the price, not just for back then,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: but for your future. So you know if his blood
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: reached 2,000 years and caught you on the altar, you
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: know it can reach up to this week and catch
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: you where you are and redeem you from.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Sin and death.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: He couldn't just die for your past and then have
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: to get up and die again every time you mess up.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: That's too much work. That's why he's seated on the
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: right hand of the majesty on high.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: It's finished. It's paid for.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Whatever you did, about to do, gonna do, will do,
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: have done, it's already paid for.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: By the blood.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: The former treaties have I made, O Theophilus, of all
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: that Jesus began both to do and to teach. Our
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: God is not an anticlimactic God. He always saves the
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: best for last. He doesn't decrease in his presentation. He increases.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Your latter days shall be greater than your former days.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: I have sent the former and I shall send the
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: latter rain. It's always a crescendo. It's not going down,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: it's going up. So if you are marveling at what
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: God did in the past, wait till you see. Glory
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: to God. There's more to come. There's more to come.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: You know, I.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Have a challenge. This is just a confession.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: I interject this just for you to get an illumination
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: as to things I think. I have a challenge with
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: my generation because people who are in my age bracket
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: and often have been saved for years have stopped dreaming.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: It is becoming burdensome to minister to them because they
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: think they have seen it all and done it all
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: and their expectation level is plummeting to an all-time low
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: because their experiences and the circumstances have led them to
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: the point that they think that they understand all that
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: there is to be seen and understood about life and
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: many of them are losing their hunger and my frustration
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: in talking to them is that in order for my
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: gift to function at its best, you have to sit
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: me in a room with Hungry people, excited people, desperate people,
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: people who have a plan of action, people who have
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: a hope. For faith is the substance of things. Hope for,
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: if you don't hope for nothing, you don't need no faith.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: If you don't need no faith, you don't need no word.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: Don't let the devil take your hope. He can take
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: your hair, but don't let him take your hope. Our
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: God is an active God.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: He's a powerful God. He's an expressive God. He is
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: an empowering God.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: When I began to pray over this message, I said, Lord,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: if you just... began to do what you're going to do,
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: I said, why is it, Lord, that people are not
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: more hungry for the things of.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: God and for the Holy Spirit like they ought to be?
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: And he said, my people are not as hungry as
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: they ought to be or they used to be For
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: the following reasons. You don't need to be empowered if
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: you're not going anywhere. You don't need to keep putting
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: gas in a parked car. The reason that God gives
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: us the Holy Spirit is not for our entertainment.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: It is not for our performance. It is for our function.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: So that you shall receive power after that the Holy
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: Ghost has come upon you. And ye shall be witnesses
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: unto me.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Well, if you're not going to witness, you don't need.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Let's go back. Jesus riled it up, and Luke is
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: the only gospel writer that records this.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: It is interesting.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Almost as if Luke has this deep inclination to connect
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: the workings of Christ with the moving of the Holy Spirit.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: He records how Jesus, in the gospel of St. Luke,
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: I think it's chapter 4. Let me look because I'm
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: getting old.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: In the gospel of St.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Luke, he says, he says, Jesus got up in the synagogue.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: And the first text he read was Luke 4, 16
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: through 21. And I want you to take a look
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: at what Jesus says. It is a messianic text. It
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: is a quote from Isaiah 61. Isaiah introduces the notion
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: to Israel that the Messiah is coming.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: And Jesus walks in and picks up.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: What was the Bible of their day and begins to
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: read out of the text Isaiah 61. And it says,
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: and the spirit of the Lord God is upon me.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: It should be on the screens. And the spirit of
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: the Lord God. And in fact, let's take.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: It from the top. And he came to Nazareth where
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: he had been brought up.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: And as his custom was, he went into the synagogue
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: on the Sabbath day. And stood up for to read.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: And there was delivered unto him. The book of the
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: prophet Esaias.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Which is Isaiah.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: And when he had opened the book. He found the
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: place where it was written. The spirit of the Lord
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: is upon me. Because. The spirit of the Lord is
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: never just on you. Whenever the spirit of the Lord
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: is on you. It has to have a cause. If
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: you don't have a cause. You don't have an anointing.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, come on, somebody. If you're not going to do.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Anything, God is not just going to come by for
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: your entertainment to keep you company. God anoints his purpose.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: The spirit of the Lord God is upon me because.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: God help me.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, this is important, y'all. This is important. Because if
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: you lose your cause, you lose your anointing. The problem
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: today is we have become our own cause.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Still to come on The Potter's Touch.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: How you gonna be a soldier when you running from
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: the fight? How are you going to find out he's
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: the fourth one in the fiery furnace when.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: You're scared to get in the fire?
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: Do you not know that the Lord is a present
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: help in trouble? If you're looking for God, you've got
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: to get in some trouble.
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: It's an amazing experience. It's an opportunity to, um, learn and,
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: you know, from Bishop James to learn from what he's experienced. Um,
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: to understand what leadership is, to understand... what it is
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: to be a pastor.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: God has a place for you to go and to
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: preach and to touch, and until you finish your purpose,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: no weapon formed against you shall be able to prosper.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: This year, we decided to bring most of our leaders
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: so they can hear the life-changing message.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: It's critical. It's essential. I recommend it to anybody.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: I've seen others talk about it, but I have experienced
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: it and witnessed it.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: It's like none other.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Save your money. Do whatever you got.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: To do to get here because your ministry and life
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: will never be the same.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: The reason we stand stargazing at what Christ did is
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: to distract us from what we need to do. See,
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: the plan was that the body of Christ would never
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: leave the earth. The physical body of Christ was crucified,
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: buried in a tomb, rose up the third day morning,
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: showed himself alive for 40 days with many infallible proofs
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: so that he could empower the mystical body of Christ,
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: which is the church, so that the Holy Spirit that
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: moved on Christ could now move through us. And that's
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: why the Bible said if the princes of this world
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: would have known what they were doing, they would have
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: never crucified the Lord. Because when Jesus was in earth,
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: you had one son of God. But now the book says, beloved,
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: now are ye the sons of God. And it does
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: not yet appear what we shall be. At least when
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: Jesus was in the earth, you could track him to
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: one city. But now Christ in you can be in
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: all kinds of cities at the same time. If we
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: were not out of service, if we had not reduced
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: The Christian walk to whether you go to church or not.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: Demons will tremble if faith ever gets outside the church.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: Hell will deteriorate if preaching ever leaves the pulpit. Amen.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: If laying on of hand ever gets away from the
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: front of the church and starts breaking out in Kroger's
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: and Walmart and Big Bear and starts showing up at all.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: Of these places.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: If saints start praying with people in restaurants. You're talking
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: about revival hitting a city. If we started doing what
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: the early church did.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Had prayer meeting in your living room.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine how much more peace you'd have in
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: your house if God could use your house?
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Maybe he'd let you pay it off.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: But when it's just for you, why should God invest
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: where there is no return? The more I read the
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: word of God, the more I realize that the thing
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: that God cares the most about, above everything else, is
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: his love. His purpose, the reason you were not a
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: stillborn is because you have been assigned a purpose. The
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: reason the gun didn't kill you, the reason the car
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: wreck didn't destroy you, the reason you survived amongst all
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: the witches and all the haters and all the soothsayers
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: that tried to take you under is because you have been.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Assigned a purpose.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: Slap somebody and say, I got a purpose. All things
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: work together for the good of them that love the Lord,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: who are the called according to his purpose.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: What is your.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: It doesn't say all things work together for the good
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: of them who are out of service. All things work
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: together for the good of them who are self-consumed. They're
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: not going to work together for good. Because you're not
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: accomplishing his purpose.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: So that brings up, I don't know what my purpose is.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: Which would work on anybody who did not know the
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: scripture whatsoever your hands find to do. While you're trying
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: to figure out what you're supposed to do, you see
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: something that needs to be done, just grab it and
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: jump in there and go to doing it. Don't let
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: laziness dress up in confusion and give you an excuse
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: to be out of service. when you walk in God's purpose,
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: he'll give you favor. Favor is things that you don't
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: even deserve. But because you're doing what he called you
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: to do, he'll make the pathway straight before you. No
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: weapon formed against you shall be able to prosper. Every
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: tongue that rivals against you, God will condemn. He'll destroy
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: your enemies and make them your footstools. He'll set out
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: ambushments for those that try to destroy you.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: He'll strike them with.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Hemorrhoids when they try to attack you. Leprosy will break
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: out on their body. Not because you're so good or
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: so holy, but because you're doing what he called you
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: to do. Because you're moving in the avenue you were
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: created to do. He'll overlook your faults because you're doing
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: what he created you to do. Ten, three people say,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: I got to do something. I got to do something.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: God does not anoint laziness. God does not anoint tiredness.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: God does not anoint selfishness. God anoints people to do
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: what he wants done. It is his power for his purpose,
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: not yours. Oh, somebody shout me down. I'm preaching good.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: She already got demons shook up. Because they don't want
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: you to have this classified information. Because they know that
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: stuff that they're doing to you right now will not work.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: If you step into God's purpose, God will protect you
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: for his purpose.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: It's not about you.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: It's about you being in his purpose. He will provide
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: for you if you are doing his purpose. Amen.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: Tell somebody, say, I got to do something. I got
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: to do something. I got to do something.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: I'm not doing enough. For all he did for me,
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I'm not doing enough.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: For all the.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Times he saved me, I'm not doing enough. For the
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: way he brought me out of my mess, I'm not
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: doing enough. You, this message will seem strange to many
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: people because the gospel is being taught today In such
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: a way that we are not told how we should
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: serve the Lord. We are taught how the Lord should
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: serve us. Five steps to a blessing. Ten ways to overcome.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Three ways to go to the top. You'll pack a
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: place out with that. As long as God is serving you.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: You'll shout me down.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: He'll get you out of it. Oh, yes, he will.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, he will.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: Get me out. Get me out. Get me out. Get
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: me out.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Get me out.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: Suppose he sent you into it. How you gonna be.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: A soldier when you running from the fight? How are
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: you going to find out he's the fourth one in
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: the fiery furnace when you're scared to get in the fire?
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Do you not know that the Lord is a present
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: help in trouble? If you're looking for God, you got
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: to get in some trouble. He will reveal himself in trouble.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: Is there anybody here that's in trouble? Touch everybody you
• 24:38

  Speaker 3: problem is nobody's.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Doing the job.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: How are you eligible for the benefits when you don't
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: do the job? The only reason you're afraid is because
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: you are filled up with yourself. But when you get
