- 0:11Speaker 1: They have on the cards in just a few weeks,
- 0:15Speaker 1: just I think it's three weeks now, the weeks are
- 0:18Speaker 1: in the way because my head is already there. Our
- 0:21Speaker 1: International Leadership Summit is going down. It's going to be amazing.
- 0:26Speaker 1: We're so excited about it, and I'm just grateful to
- 0:30Speaker 1: God for what he's doing. Also, good soil. Good soil
- 0:33Speaker 1: is filling up, child, running over. I didn't know there
- 0:38Speaker 1: were so many hungry entrepreneurs out there that are trying
- 0:41Speaker 1: to do it on their own and are grateful to
- 0:43Speaker 1: have some tutelage and some mentoring and perhaps some money. Oh,
- 0:49Speaker 1: y'all don't want no money.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 0:52Speaker 1: All you business owners that don't want no money, you
- 0:54Speaker 1: can exit right out the door there. How many of
- 0:58Speaker 1: you know it takes money to do business?
- 1:00Speaker 2: Amen.
- 1:01Speaker 1: How many of you are open to receive some help
- 1:04Speaker 1: to your vision, some provision to your vision? Jump on
- 1:08Speaker 1: your feet and make some noise if you're open to
- 1:11Speaker 1: a little provision.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Amen.
- 1:17Speaker 1: When I found out that they're giving away grants up
- 1:21Speaker 1: to $ 200, 000, I thought, Lord, have mercy. Can I lead
- 1:27Speaker 1: and apply?
- 1:29Speaker 2: God is good. All your life you have been faithful.
- 1:35Speaker 2: All my life you have been so, so good.
- 1:39Speaker 1: God's going to answer somebody's prayer. Hey, good Lord, come on,
- 1:42Speaker 1: shout somebody's. I'm not sure that there aren't any seats left,
- 1:48Speaker 1: but if there are any seats left, you ought to
- 1:50Speaker 1: get one and get to Good Soil. If you just
- 1:54Speaker 1: go for Good Soil only, if there aren't, you can
- 1:56Speaker 1: get it online. When you register for ILS streaming, you
- 2:00Speaker 1: get to peek into Good Soil and experience all that's
- 2:02Speaker 1: going on there so that you can learn the things
- 2:05Speaker 1: that you need to learn and have accessible to you
- 2:07Speaker 1: the opportunities. And I just opened up that amazing app.
- 2:12Speaker 1: And it just blew my mind. I was in the app.
- 2:15Speaker 1: I know y'all don't know what I'm talking about yet,
- 2:16Speaker 1: but you will in a minute that they have created
- 2:20Speaker 1: to continue a movement out of a moment. Sometimes we
- 2:24Speaker 1: get caught up in a moment, but what we need
- 2:27Speaker 1: is a movement. Anybody can schedule a moment on the calendar,
- 2:32Speaker 1: but a movement doesn't have an expiration date.
- 2:36Speaker 2: This is not a moment. It's a movement.
- 2:38Speaker 1: I've been preaching for over a year. Things are about
- 2:41Speaker 1: to shift. Y'all don't hear what I'm saying. Anybody feel
- 2:45Speaker 1: a shift coming in your life? Amen. Amen.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Amen.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Amen. Amen. Pastor Michael Phillips, would you stand and give
- 2:54Speaker 1: God a praise for what you're doing with Good Soul?
- 2:57Speaker 3: Amen.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Amen.
- 3:00Speaker 1: We're excited, we're excited, we're supporting you, we're following you
- 3:03Speaker 1: onto the battlefield to give more capital, more information, more instruction.
- 3:08Speaker 1: And I'll tell you something, the capital might be exciting,
- 3:10Speaker 1: but the information is empowering. If you give people capital
- 3:16Speaker 1: without instruction, they just spend it. The stats say that
- 3:22Speaker 1: people who hit the lottery, about 75% of them are
- 3:26Speaker 1: broke in two years. Yeah, how could they be broke?
- 3:29Speaker 1: They got millions and billions of dollars. To have money
- 3:35Speaker 1: and not have information is to give you something that
- 3:40Speaker 1: you're just going to give back. But when you get
- 3:44Speaker 1: the resources and the information, then it becomes seed into
- 3:49Speaker 1: soil for harvest in your life. And you don't see
- 3:52Speaker 1: the seed as something you eat. You see it as
- 3:56Speaker 1: something you sow. The flower fades and the grass withers,
- 4:02Speaker 1: but the word of the Lord shall stand forevermore. Some
- 4:06Speaker 1: trust in horses and some trust in chariots, but I
- 4:10Speaker 1: will remember the name of the Lord. For the name
- 4:14Speaker 1: of the Lord is a strong tower, for the righteous
- 4:17Speaker 1: run therein and are safe.
- 4:19Speaker 2: He sent his word and healed them.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Job said, I esteemed his word above my necessary food.
- 4:26Speaker 1: David said, thy word is a lamp unto my feet
- 4:29Speaker 1: and a light unto my pathway. The centurion said, don't go,
- 4:34Speaker 1: just speak the word only and my servant shall be healed.
- 4:37Speaker 1: In the beginning was the word and the word was
- 4:39Speaker 1: with God and the word was God and all things
- 4:41Speaker 1: were made by him.
- 4:42Speaker 2: Without him was not anything.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Made that was made. You ain't gonna be made without
- 4:47Speaker 1: the word. Are you ready to be made? Amen.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Go to the gospel of St.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Luke chapter number 15 verse 8 through 9 and there
- 4:56Speaker 1: you will find what the Holy Spirit has commissioned for
- 4:59Speaker 1: me to share with you.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Today.
- 5:11Speaker 1: The rabbi is teaching in the 15th chapter verse 8.
- 5:19Speaker 1: We have caught him in the middle of his class.
- 5:23Speaker 1: He is teaching through the medium of parabolic truth to
- 5:32Speaker 1: articulate the profundity of his theology regarding the kingdom of
- 5:39Speaker 1: God and what he is able to do for the
- 5:41Speaker 1: people of God through stories and similes through which we
- 5:47Speaker 1: can gather principles Rather than to archive the artifacts of
- 5:53Speaker 1: the story itself, we must be prepared to draw the
- 5:56Speaker 1: principles from the story, which are timeless. Irregardless to culture, age,
- 6:04Speaker 1: or identity, we find these truths to be self-evident. Beginning
- 6:14Speaker 1: at the eighth verse, we are picking apart the Oreo
- 6:19Speaker 1: because this is compressed between two other accommodating stories. But
- 6:26Speaker 1: the uniqueness of this text in two verses, we will
- 6:30Speaker 1: conclude a principle for which we will articulate truth for
- 6:34Speaker 1: the next few moments. Let the church say amen. Either
- 6:40Speaker 1: what woman having 10 pieces of silver. How many love 10?
- 6:46Speaker 1: 10 pieces of silver. If she lose one piece, doth
- 6:53Speaker 1: not light a candle and sweep the house.
- 7:00Speaker 2: What does she do? Sweep the house and.
- 7:04Speaker 3: Seek diligently till she find it. And when she had
- 7:13Speaker 3: found it, she called her friends and her neighbors together saying,
- 7:19Speaker 3: rejoice with me for I have found the peace which
- 7:25Speaker 3: I have lost. Somebody shout, keep sweeping.
- 7:28Speaker 2: Keep sweeping. Keep sweeping. Keep sweeping.
- 7:40Speaker 1: The Holy Ghost said, keep sweeping.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Keep sweeping. Type it on the line. Keep sweeping.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Spirit of the living God, fall fresh on us as
- 7:49Speaker 1: we open up the word of God. Thank you for
- 7:51Speaker 1: what you're going to say to us today. In Jesus'
- 7:53Speaker 1: name we pray. Someone shout amen. You may be seated
- 7:58Speaker 1: in the presence of God.
- 8:00Speaker 2: Yes.
- 8:04Speaker 1: The text by virtue of implication suggests the power of
- 8:08Speaker 1: God to be restorative, that he restores that which is lost.
- 8:17Speaker 1: That it is not God's will for that which is
- 8:19Speaker 1: given to be taken, but if by chance it wanders
- 8:25Speaker 1: or falls away, that the same God who gave it
- 8:29Speaker 1: is able to restore it.
- 8:33Speaker 2: Back to you.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Further, it goes on to dictate to us that we
- 8:38Speaker 1: are collaborative in the restoration process, that God will not
- 8:43Speaker 1: restore it while we are apathetical about it, but we
- 8:47Speaker 1: too have to be diligent in order to collaboratively experience
- 8:53Speaker 1: the power of God to the intent that everything that
- 8:59Speaker 1: failed will be recaptured. Everything that drifted away will be reclaimed.
- 9:16Speaker 1: Every sheep that wandered from the hundred and left you
- 9:20Speaker 1: with a deficit will be reclaimed, but you have to
- 9:25Speaker 1: be aggressive enough to go after what was lost. It
- 9:30Speaker 1: wandered away, but it won't wander back. You have to
- 9:35Speaker 1: go get it. and bring it back into the fold
- 9:41Speaker 1: in order for the restoration to be realized, God will
- 9:45Speaker 1: use your feet to do the walking, your eyes to
- 9:49Speaker 1: do the finding, your hands to do the untangling, but
- 9:53Speaker 1: everything that got away is coming back. He uses an
- 10:05Speaker 1: animal to teach this truth. He uses a lost sheep
- 10:10Speaker 1: to teach this truth. He uses a lost son to
- 10:15Speaker 1: preach this truth. The son we call the prodigal son.
- 10:20Speaker 1: to illustrate that even though someone has maligned us, mistreated us,
- 10:26Speaker 1: desecrated the relationship with us, that we must not allow
- 10:30Speaker 1: our emotions to shut the door on the possibility that
- 10:35Speaker 1: they could come to themselves. And if they come to themselves,
- 10:40Speaker 1: they must not find us ignorant to the character of
- 10:48Speaker 1: God is to be forgiving and restorative. Some of us,
- 10:53Speaker 1: the prodigal son can't come home because the door is closed.
- 11:00Speaker 1: So the fluidity of thought and nimbleness of mind suggests
- 11:03Speaker 1: that we must be open even when we're hurt. It
- 11:09Speaker 1: is painful to hear the prodigal son say to his father,
- 11:14Speaker 1: give me the portion of goods that falleth to me.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Not because it's not his, but it says, I can't
- 11:21Speaker 1: wait for you to die.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Give it to me now.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Anytime you want my stuff more than you want me,
- 11:31Speaker 1: it's a painful reality to recognize that people have used
- 11:37Speaker 1: the relationship in a spirit of manipulation rather than relation.
- 11:43Speaker 2: So that they could have.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Aggrandizement and entitlement to that which was laid in store prematurely.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Reminds us furthermore that a blessing out of season is
- 11:56Speaker 1: a curse. Type it on the line. Tweet it out
- 12:02Speaker 1: to people. A blessing out of season is a curse.
- 12:06Speaker 1: If it was laid up for me and I get
- 12:08Speaker 1: it too soon, I won't know how to handle it
- 12:10Speaker 1: and I'm going to lose it. So, Lord, don't give
- 12:13Speaker 1: me anything before it's seasoned. That's what part of the
- 12:19Speaker 1: blessing is on tithing, that you will not yield your
- 12:22Speaker 1: fruit before it's seasoned, that your figs will not be
- 12:26Speaker 1: harvested before they are ready. There are some things that
- 12:29Speaker 1: God is preparing for you in the wait, that you
- 12:34Speaker 1: need to be strong enough in the wait to wait
- 12:37Speaker 1: on the fulfillment and the realization of everything that God.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Has for you. It's yours, but it's not tithed.
- 12:45Speaker 1: For there is a time and a season for every
- 12:47Speaker 1: purpose under heaven. The tendency today is to want things early,
- 12:56Speaker 1: shortcuts to success, shortcuts to benefits. Getting what you have
- 13:03Speaker 1: not earned will cause you to lose it. But we're
- 13:10Speaker 1: not talking about the lost lamb or the lost son today.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Rather still, we're talking about the lost coin. We must
- 13:20Speaker 1: recognize the fact that this is the first moment that
- 13:24Speaker 1: the rabbi has allowed a woman to stand center stage
- 13:29Speaker 1: in the text. She is not a son or a
- 13:34Speaker 1: brother or a father or a sheep or a shepherd.
- 13:38Speaker 1: She is a woman. Somebody say a woman. And the
- 13:44Speaker 1: rabbi now uses a woman to express a principle that
- 13:51Speaker 1: we must come to understand. Before we get too deep
- 13:54Speaker 1: into the principles, I want to deal with, let me
- 13:58Speaker 1: just be transparent and tell you that this message did
- 14:01Speaker 1: not start with the text as mine often do start
- 14:06Speaker 1: with the text. This message started with the vision and
- 14:10Speaker 1: in the spirit, I saw a coin that looked like
- 14:13Speaker 1: a dime falling in slow motion. And the vision of
- 14:21Speaker 1: the coin falling in slow motion was succeeded by a
- 14:26Speaker 1: baby falling with its arms out. And then I saw
- 14:34Speaker 1: masses of crowds falling. And I said, Lord, what does
- 14:38Speaker 1: this mean? And the falling of the coin drove me
- 14:44Speaker 1: to the text. For this woman's coin has fallen. The
- 14:51Speaker 1: falling of the baby drove me to Mephibosheth. The powerful
- 15:02Speaker 1: thing about the coin speaks to value. The falling of
- 15:08Speaker 1: the baby spoke to emotions and terror. Because the baby
- 15:14Speaker 1: looks petrified falling. Arms flailing in the air. Eyes bucked.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Falling down backwards. And then God settled me into the word.
- 15:29Speaker 1: Where he began to talk about aggregate values. To aggregate values.
- 15:37Speaker 1: is to cause a wholly formed thing to be combined
- 15:45Speaker 1: by typically disparate elements. So the aggregate, for example, let
- 15:52Speaker 1: me make it plain. I'm wearing wire frame glasses, so
- 15:57Speaker 1: there's wire, there's glass, and there's technology that developed my
- 16:03Speaker 1: prescription And so the glasses are the aggregate of three
- 16:07Speaker 1: different elements that didn't necessarily have to collaborate, but they
- 16:12Speaker 1: are aggregated so I can see. The power of aggregation
- 16:22Speaker 1: is important because it is the assembling of that which
- 16:28Speaker 1: is unique. So when we start talking about aggregation, we
- 16:33Speaker 1: are talking about the power of the collective and not
- 16:38Speaker 1: just the individual. A lot has been said about the individual,
- 16:44Speaker 1: but little has been said about the collective. And anytime
- 16:49Speaker 1: you focus solely on the power of the individual item, thing, steel, glass,
- 16:56Speaker 1: or technology, and don't aggregate it, it does not become usable.
- 17:04Speaker 1: So isolation of a valuable thing is a desecration of
- 17:11Speaker 1: its collective aggregate strength. So as we think about this text,
- 17:17Speaker 1: we must think about aggregate value, the collective value. I
- 17:24Speaker 1: could praise him in my house. I could praise him
- 17:27Speaker 1: in my car. I could praise him in my shower
- 17:30Speaker 1: by myself and it would be praised. But when the
- 17:34Speaker 1: aggregate composite of all of us come together, Even though
- 17:40Speaker 1: we came from different houses and different neighborhoods and speak
- 17:43Speaker 1: different languages and have different cultures and have different political
- 17:47Speaker 1: views or whatever it is that causes our uniqueness. I
- 17:51Speaker 1: am not out to destroy your uniqueness at the expense
- 17:57Speaker 1: of having our unity. You can still be a unique
- 18:01Speaker 1: individual and be aggregated. The steel didn't become glass. The
- 18:06Speaker 1: glass didn't become steel. The prescription didn't become the glass.
- 18:09Speaker 1: The glass, the steel didn't become the prescription. They are
- 18:12Speaker 1: still unique unto itself, but the beauty of the aggregate
- 18:16Speaker 1: is celebrating the uniqueness of the individual, but benefiting from
- 18:21Speaker 1: the aggregation of that which is dissimilar, and yet they
- 18:25Speaker 1: are brought together for unity. So I see collective value
- 18:31Speaker 1: in the text. Let me go deeper. Look at Ecclesiastes
- 18:34Speaker 1: chapter 4, verse 7 through 10, and you'll begin to
- 18:37Speaker 1: understand a little bit deeper. Then I returned and I
- 18:40Speaker 1: saw vanity under the sun.
- 18:43Speaker 2: Come on.
- 18:44Speaker 1: There is one alone. There is one alone. And there
- 18:49Speaker 1: is not a second. There is one alone. And if
- 18:52Speaker 1: you're there by yourself... He hath neither child nor brother,
- 18:57Speaker 1: yet is there no end of.
- 18:59Speaker 2: All his labor.
- 19:01Speaker 1: Neither is his eye satisfied with riches, neither saith he,
- 19:05Speaker 1: for whom do I labor and bereave my soul of good.
- 19:10Speaker 1: This is all vanity, meaning emptiness. Yea, it is a
- 19:17Speaker 1: sore travail to be alone. Two are better than one.
- 19:23Speaker 1: Because they have a good reward for their labor. This
- 19:28Speaker 1: is talking about the road to increase. For if they fall,
- 19:32Speaker 1: the one will lift up his fellow. But woe unto
- 19:36Speaker 1: him that is alone.
- 19:39Speaker 2: For when he falleth, he hath not another to help
- 19:49Speaker 2: him up. The woe is not on the falling, it's
- 19:53Speaker 2: on the aloneness.
- 19:56Speaker 1: So when we teach people how to have individual power
- 20:00Speaker 1: without suggesting to them that you can't get there by yourself,
- 20:07Speaker 1: then we set them up to fall alone And the
- 20:11Speaker 1: danger of falling alone is crippling your dream. In short,
- 20:18Speaker 1: what's next is going to take more than you. Let
- 20:24Speaker 1: me say it another way. You've gone as far as
- 20:27Speaker 1: you can go by yourself. you're going to have to
- 20:32Speaker 1: be open to aggregation and collaboration in order to experience celebration.
- 20:39Speaker 1: For what God is going to do in the next
- 20:41Speaker 1: dimension has collective value, not individual uniqueness without collective value.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Your individual uniqueness has caused you to be autonomous, isolated,
- 20:58Speaker 1: a unicorn, are one of a kind. I'm not trying
- 21:03Speaker 1: to destroy it, but I'm trying to put it in
- 21:06Speaker 1: context that two are better than one. Nobody goes to
- 21:13Speaker 1: the mall to buy a shoe. Nobody goes to the
- 21:20Speaker 1: grocery store to get eggshells. It is the aggregation of
- 21:27Speaker 1: the egg, the yolk, and the white that causes us
- 21:31Speaker 1: to go to the store. It is not any one
- 21:33Speaker 1: of them in isolation, but the aggregation of all of
- 21:36Speaker 1: them that creates the nourishment that we.
- 21:38Speaker 2: Need for survival.
- 21:43Speaker 1: No avalanche occurs from one snowflake. But when all the
- 21:51Speaker 1: flakes come together, that which was powerless by itself has
- 21:56Speaker 1: exponential empowerment because its aggregate power can cause an avalanche
- 22:02Speaker 1: to stop an 18-wheeler.
- 22:07Speaker 2: One can chase a thousand.
- 22:13Speaker 1: But if you can get some help and just get two,
- 22:16Speaker 1: I'll give you exponential impact just through your partnership. When
- 22:20Speaker 1: you aggregate with other people, I'll release dimensions of power
- 22:24Speaker 1: that you couldn't have. So it seems like if one
- 22:26Speaker 1: could chase a thousand, two ought to chase two thousand. No,
- 22:29Speaker 1: that's not how it is. This is exponential increase. You're
- 22:33Speaker 1: doing math. I'm doing algebra. God says one can chase
- 22:36Speaker 1: a thousand. Two can chase ten thousand.
- 22:40Speaker 2: I'll give you.
- 22:45Speaker 1: I increase your value through your association. Your cumulative sum
- 22:54Speaker 1: total of strength is predicated on your ability to aggregate.
- 22:59Speaker 1: So if I were Satan and I couldn't stop you
- 23:03Speaker 1: from being powerful as an individual, I would diminish your
- 23:08Speaker 1: ability to discover collective value. Everything here is about collective value.
- 23:20Speaker 1: The prodigal son receives his money in isolation and spends
- 23:24Speaker 1: it all. Not understanding that the money was not the value.
- 23:29Speaker 1: The relationship was the value. The collective strength of being
- 23:33Speaker 1: in his father's house released a blessing that his inheritance
- 23:37Speaker 1: did not give him. He spit his inheritance and then
- 23:40Speaker 1: came to value the relationship and said, how many servants,
- 23:44Speaker 1: they're not even related to daddy, but how many servants
- 23:47Speaker 1: in my father's house? have bread enough in the spirit
- 23:49Speaker 1: and I perish with hunger. I'm through trying to be
- 23:52Speaker 1: an individual wonder. I'm going back home so that I
- 23:56Speaker 1: can discover the collective aggregate power of what I can be.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Just make me a, I'd rather be a servant in
- 24:03Speaker 1: the house than to be a son in a hog pen. Oh,
- 24:12Speaker 1: what makes the shepherd leave the 99? and go after
- 24:17Speaker 1: the one is because the minus one stops the hundred fold.
- 24:29Speaker 1: So even though the one is alive and the 99
- 24:33Speaker 1: is alive, as long as they are separated, he can
- 24:37Speaker 1: never go to the market with a hundred fold. So
- 24:43Speaker 1: that little thing that you lost, you have to be
- 24:47Speaker 1: intentional about getting it back because.
- 24:50Speaker 2: It has collective value.
- 24:53Speaker 1: It's not as though you don't have something left after
- 24:56Speaker 1: what you lost, but the diminishment of the collective value
- 25:00Speaker 1: of what you lost is going to cause you to
- 25:02Speaker 1: be aggressive about getting it back. Touch your neighbor and say,
- 25:06Speaker 1: find my broom. Sociologists tell us that people who live
- 25:19Speaker 1: alone don't live long. Not as long as they could
- 25:24Speaker 1: live if they had company. A person in the house,
- 25:29Speaker 1: even if it's a person who gets on your nerves,
- 25:36Speaker 1: Aggregated strength causes you to have collective value. If a
- 25:40Speaker 1: burglar breaks in, he's less likely to break in a
- 25:43Speaker 1: house if there's somebody in the house with you. It
- 25:46Speaker 1: could be a kid in the house. It could be
- 25:47Speaker 1: a kid and a woman, but two are better than
- 25:50Speaker 1: one because if one falleth, he have not another to
- 25:53Speaker 1: help him. You might be a 10-year-old, but at least
- 25:56Speaker 1: I can holler, dial 911. while I get this ax
- 26:00Speaker 1: and go down these steps you gotta have somebody to
- 26:03Speaker 1: be in partnership with in order to fight the good
- 26:06Speaker 1: fight of.
- 26:06Speaker 2: Faith that's why Paul tells Timothy I.
- 26:11Speaker 1: Have I fought a good fight but he never said
- 26:17Speaker 1: I fought it by myself are you hearing what I'm
- 26:22Speaker 1: saying we're talking about exponential components of aggregation you're praying
- 26:31Speaker 1: about a million dollars and you don't understand all a
- 26:36Speaker 1: million dollars is, is a collection of dimes. Somebody say million.
- 26:50Speaker 1: Some of y'all, you don't even talk that talk. You
- 26:52Speaker 1: don't even talk that. That don't come up in your house.
- 26:54Speaker 1: Your children don't even know how to spell it. They
- 26:56Speaker 1: have never heard mama say that word before. So say
- 26:58Speaker 1: it again, say million. Get your lips, your teeth, your
- 27:02Speaker 1: tongue used to saying it because you can't receive it
- 27:04Speaker 1: if you can't say it.
- 27:05Speaker 2: Somebody say million. Oh my God.
- 27:08Speaker 1: When you speak stuff like that into the atmosphere, you
- 27:11Speaker 1: don't know it, but you're calling stuff to you that
- 27:13Speaker 1: you haven't seen yet. Somebody say million. You can't ask
- 27:18Speaker 1: for it till you speak it. You can't negotiate it
- 27:21Speaker 1: till you speak it. You got to get used to
- 27:23Speaker 1: your lips saying it so it don't sound strange so
- 27:26Speaker 1: you don't trip over it when you say it. Somebody
- 27:28Speaker 1: shout it again, million. Type it on the line, shout million.
- 27:34Speaker 1: Put it in your heart, shout million. Oh. Can I
- 27:42Speaker 1: go deeper with this? All you asked him for was
- 27:48Speaker 1: a collection of dimes. The highest thing God can give
- 27:58Speaker 1: me is a dime. A hundred dollars just tells me
- 28:06Speaker 1: how many dimes I have. Because a dime is 10.
- 28:14Speaker 1: And there is no number bigger than 10.
- 28:20Speaker 2: That's why when I.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Count all the way up to 10, I got to
- 28:24Speaker 1: go back to one again and say 11.
- 28:26Speaker 2: 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Oops, I got to go back to one again. 20
- 28:44Speaker 1: is just 10 twice. 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30. Oh,
- 28:51Speaker 1: that's just 10 three times.
- 29:04Speaker 2: It's a collection of dimes. It's a collection of dimes.
- 29:07Speaker 2: Stop sweating it. Stop getting frantic about it. Stop being
- 29:09Speaker 2: upset about it. Dimes are what? you're asking for.
- 29:18Speaker 1: So stop throwing away your dimes because the aggregation of
- 29:22Speaker 1: the dimes is what the millions are made out of.
- 29:25Speaker 1: If you don't appreciate the dime, you can't handle the
- 29:29Speaker 1: million because all a million is is a collection of dimes.
- 29:33Speaker 1: Let me put it in Bible language. If you're faithful
- 29:36Speaker 1: over a few things, come on, come on. I'll make
- 29:40Speaker 1: you rule over many.
- 29:41Speaker 2: Hallelujah. High five somebody.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Tell them it's a collection of dimes. I'm coming into
- 29:47Speaker 1: a collection of dimes. I'm coming into a collection of dimes.
- 29:51Speaker 1: I'm coming into a collection of dimes. I'm getting ready
- 29:54Speaker 1: to aggregate these dimes. That's why the Bible said, despise
- 29:57Speaker 1: not the day of small beginnings because everything big was
- 30:01Speaker 1: made out of something small. I'm coming into a collection
- 30:06Speaker 1: of dimes. All my body is is a collection of cells.
- 30:13Speaker 1: If something happens to me on a cellular level, then
- 30:16Speaker 1: something has happened to me on a physical level because
- 30:19Speaker 1: all my.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Body is is an aggregate of cells.
- 30:23Speaker 1: You've been walking over the dimes, praying for the millions,
- 30:28Speaker 1: not recognizing that all a million is. If snowflakes cause avalanches,
- 30:42Speaker 1: and raindrops create floods. If tidal waves are made of droplets,
- 30:54Speaker 1: then you might be walking over something that is going
- 30:59Speaker 1: to bring you into an aggregate place of great strength
- 31:05Speaker 1: because you are looking for the sum without what makes
- 31:09Speaker 1: the sum total. Come on with me. The reason that
- 31:17Speaker 1: we have tithes, because tithe is a word that means 10.
- 31:29Speaker 1: So God says, give me 10. Because if you've given
- 31:36Speaker 1: me 10, you've given me everything. Y'all don't hear me yet.
- 31:44Speaker 1: Y'all don't hear me yet. Y'all don't hear me yet.
- 31:45Speaker 1: Y'all don't hear me yet. If you've given me 10,
- 31:48Speaker 1: you've given me everything. When you take first fruits. The
- 31:55Speaker 1: first fruits, if the first fruits get blessed, then everything
- 31:58Speaker 1: left is blessed. If a cook is making a pot
- 32:01Speaker 1: of soup, all they need is a teaspoon. Because if
- 32:05Speaker 1: there's garlic in the teaspoon, there's garlic in the soup.
- 32:09Speaker 2: If it's not done in the teaspoon, it's not done
- 32:12Speaker 2: in the pot.
- 32:13Speaker 1: The tithe represents the whole. That's why when the 10
- 32:18Speaker 1: lepers walked away, 10 of them are walking away and
- 32:28Speaker 1: the 10th one turns around and comes back to God.
- 32:32Speaker 1: Now the nine got healed, but the 10th one was
- 32:35Speaker 1: made whole. Oh, y'all don't hear what I'm saying to you.
- 32:40Speaker 1: I know you've been healed by yourself, but in order
- 32:43Speaker 1: to be whole, you got to aggregate from other places.
- 32:47Speaker 1: Who am I preaching to make some noise in this place?
- 32:53Speaker 1: There were 10 lepers. There were 10 coins. There were
- 33:01Speaker 1: 10 virgins. What is this obsession that God has with 10?
- 33:08Speaker 1: Bring me a 10.
- 33:09Speaker 2: A collection of dimes. A collection of dimes is everything.
- 33:20Speaker 1: God is obsessed with 10 because if I bless the 10,
- 33:29Speaker 1: I bless the whole. If I taste the soup and
- 33:34Speaker 1: there's no salt in the spoon, There's no salt in
- 33:39Speaker 1: the soup. When you lift up the tithe and say, Lord,
- 33:42Speaker 1: I've given you the tithe, you're saying, God, all of
- 33:46Speaker 1: the 90 is blessed through the representation of the tithe
- 33:50Speaker 1: because 10 brings you into wholeness. You can go no
- 33:55Speaker 1: higher than 10. God says, you've robbed me. You've robbed
- 33:58Speaker 1: me in dimes. You have robbed me in.
- 34:10Speaker 3: Dimes.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Now to my text, two scriptures. Merely two scriptures, three
- 34:28Speaker 1: characters in two scriptures. There are three characters in two scriptures.
- 34:34Speaker 1: There's the woman. Notice she is a woman, she is
- 34:41Speaker 1: built to receive.
- 34:42Speaker 2: 10 of.
- 34:49Speaker 1: Y'all got it, the rest of you didn't get it.
- 34:54Speaker 1: She is built to receive. Her gender postures itself from
- 35:03Speaker 1: a place of reception She has to be a woman
- 35:10Speaker 1: because she is built to receive. Somebody say, I'm built
- 35:14Speaker 1: to receive. Now, if you only hear this naturally and
- 35:18Speaker 1: don't hear the spiritual implications, then you will think that
- 35:21Speaker 1: that exempted the men. But I'm not really so much
- 35:25Speaker 1: talking about her gender. I'm talking about her position. She
- 35:29Speaker 1: is built to receive. Have I positioned myself to be
- 35:33Speaker 1: receptive to to what God is about to do. It's
- 35:36Speaker 1: not just a question for a woman. It's a question
- 35:39Speaker 1: for anybody in the room. There is a posture that
- 35:43Speaker 1: puts you in a position of reception. Are you open
- 35:47Speaker 1: to what God is about to do next in your life?
- 35:50Speaker 1: Are you open to it? I want an answer.
- 35:54Speaker 2: Are you open?
- 36:02Speaker 1: Because you can't receive it if you're not open to it.
- 36:10Speaker 1: You can't receive not a dime of it, not a
- 36:12Speaker 1: thing of it, not a relationship of it, not a
- 36:15Speaker 1: sheep of it, not a son of it if you're
- 36:16Speaker 1: not open to it. If the door is closed, the
- 36:19Speaker 1: prodigal son can't come home. If you don't seek for
- 36:21Speaker 1: the sheep, you can't get it back. You gotta be
- 36:23Speaker 1: open to receive. So if I was the devil, I
- 36:26Speaker 1: would close up your receptors. so that you would be
- 36:32Speaker 1: open to receive and you would settle to be valuable
- 36:35Speaker 1: in isolation rather than to discover the aggregate value of
- 36:40Speaker 1: the 10. Can I go deeper? Are you with me, church?
- 36:45Speaker 1: I need to feel you. Are you with me? There
- 36:48Speaker 1: are three characters in the story. There are two scriptures
- 36:51Speaker 1: in the text. There is the woman, the broom, and
- 36:54Speaker 1: the coins. And that's all we have to work with
- 36:58Speaker 1: is the woman, the broom, And the coins, that's all
- 37:04Speaker 1: we have. The coins, the number 10 identifies the coins.
- 37:14Speaker 1: But it's only one woman, which is a 10th of
- 37:25Speaker 1: the 10. You missed it. there are 10 coins, there's
- 37:34Speaker 1: only one woman in the whole story. She doesn't invite
- 37:39Speaker 1: people till the story's over.
- 37:45Speaker 2: She is a.
- 37:47Speaker 1: 10th. She is what she lost. So maybe Maybe there
- 37:58Speaker 1: aren't three characters. Maybe the woman and the coin have
- 38:02Speaker 1: a lot in common. Because the coin is a tenth
- 38:08Speaker 1: of the ten, and it's just like the woman who
- 38:12Speaker 1: is one, which brings us down to understanding individual value
- 38:17Speaker 1: is critical. Because if you don't understand individual value, you
- 38:20Speaker 1: won't sweep. You won't sweep. This is where the enemy
- 38:30Speaker 1: comes in after your self-esteem and how you see yourself.
- 38:34Speaker 1: This is where the enemy tries to erase. I can
- 38:36Speaker 1: do all things out of your head because you think
- 38:41Speaker 1: you are stuck waiting on somebody else to come. But
- 38:45Speaker 1: on an individual level, you have to do your own sweeping.
- 38:49Speaker 1: I can love you, but I can't sweep for you.
- 38:52Speaker 1: I can pray for you, but I can't sweep for you.
- 38:55Speaker 1: I can advise you, but I can't sweep for you.
- 38:57Speaker 1: I can counsel you, but I can't sweep for you.
- 39:00Speaker 1: You can't wait till you get married to start sweeping.
- 39:03Speaker 1: Having a man won't make you sweep. Finding your woman
- 39:07Speaker 1: won't make you sweep. If they wasn't sweeping when you
- 39:09Speaker 1: met them, you coming along to a deadbeat ain't gonna
- 39:13Speaker 1: make a deadbeat come alive. You got to get your
- 39:16Speaker 1: broom before you get with me, baby. I need to
- 39:19Speaker 1: see something in your hand, some kind of motion, some
- 39:22Speaker 1: kind of action, somebody who gets what I'm saying, make
- 39:25Speaker 1: some noise in here.
- 39:26Speaker 2: I can't be locked up.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Up with somebody that don't have no broom. Touched in
- 39:33Speaker 1: people say, where's your broom? Where's your broom? Where's your broom?
- 39:36Speaker 1: Where's your broom? You came to church this morning. Where's
- 39:39Speaker 1: your broom? What you gonna get it with? What you
- 39:41Speaker 1: gonna pull it in with? What you gonna treat with?
- 39:43Speaker 1: What's your strategy? What are you working with? Don't come
- 39:46Speaker 1: to the well and not have something to draw with.
- 39:48Speaker 1: Where's your broom?
- 40:04Speaker 2: So the woman.
- 40:10Speaker 1: See, I want to draw a little bit more association
- 40:13Speaker 1: between the woman and the coin because you can only
- 40:17Speaker 1: gather what you relate to.
- 40:26Speaker 2: She's not trying to get the nine. She got the nine.
- 40:29Speaker 2: She's after the one. She is one.
- 40:33Speaker 1: You can only get what you are. That's why imitating
- 40:38Speaker 1: me won't make you better. There has to be an
- 40:42Speaker 1: association between what you are after and what you are.
- 40:47Speaker 1: So you got one woman looking for one coin to
- 40:50Speaker 1: make it an aggregate of 10. Because nine is a deficit.
- 40:58Speaker 1: So the decision has to be made, are you gonna
- 41:01Speaker 1: live with a deficit Or are you going to sweep
- 41:07Speaker 1: for an aggregate? Come on, come on, come on with me, church.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Come on.
- 41:11Speaker 1: Look at your neighbor and say, we got some sweeping
- 41:12Speaker 1: to do. If you ain't a sweeper, get up and move.
- 41:15Speaker 1: We got some sweeping to do. We got some sweeping
- 41:17Speaker 1: to do this morning. We got some sweeping to do
- 41:20Speaker 1: this morning. If we don't do some sweeping, we're not
- 41:22Speaker 1: going to get the breakthrough. God's got something for us
- 41:24Speaker 1: to receive this morning, but we got to be ready
- 41:27Speaker 1: to do some sweeping. Are there any sweepers in the house?
- 41:29Speaker 1: Make some noise. Sweepers make some noise. Sweepers make some noise.
- 41:34Speaker 1: Sweepers make some noise. Sweepers make some noise. Sweepers make
- 41:38Speaker 1: some noise. Sweepers make some noise. Sweepers make some noise.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Sweepers make some noise. Sweepers make some noise. You can't
- 42:05Speaker 1: be a sweeper if you're not intentional. When you see
- 42:08Speaker 1: the woman grab her broom, that means I am not
- 42:11Speaker 1: gonna settle to live the rest of my life in
- 42:13Speaker 1: a deficit. When you see her go for her broom,
- 42:16Speaker 1: it means I'm gonna get back what the enemy stole
- 42:19Speaker 1: from me. When you see her go for the broom,
- 42:21Speaker 1: it's a sign that whatever is missing in my life,
- 42:24Speaker 1: I'm willing to sweep for it. I'm not willing to
- 42:27Speaker 1: do without it. I'm not willing to make the best
- 42:30Speaker 1: of a bad situation. Whatever it takes to get the
- 42:33Speaker 1: breakthrough that I need, I'm willing to sweep for it.
- 42:36Speaker 1: I feel a sweeping spirit about to hit this house.
- 42:39Speaker 1: I feel a breakthrough getting ready to hit this room.
- 42:41Speaker 1: I feel a deliverance about to come. Somebody's watching over
- 42:44Speaker 1: the internet and the Holy Ghost just showed you, you
- 42:47Speaker 1: got to get your broom back.
- 42:49Speaker 2: Hallelujah. Yes, you survived it.
- 42:51Speaker 1: But until you get your broom back, you're not going
- 42:54Speaker 1: to stop things from falling. You got some sweeping to do.
- 42:57Speaker 1: But if you sweep for it, everything that the enemy
- 43:01Speaker 1: took out of your life, God is going to give
- 43:04Speaker 1: it back to you. Press down, shaking together, and running
- 43:08Speaker 1: over whoever I'm preaching to in this room. Whatever God
- 43:12Speaker 1: is talking to you about, if you are tracking with me,
- 43:17Speaker 1: give God some praise in this hour. So I saw
- 43:36Speaker 1: a coin falling. I saw a coin. I saw a
- 43:45Speaker 1: coin falling. I won't even begin to go into everything
- 43:49Speaker 1: he showed me about it, but I saw a coin falling.
- 43:54Speaker 1: And the coin fell without feeling. And then I saw
- 44:00Speaker 1: a baby falling. And when I saw the baby falling,
- 44:05Speaker 1: I saw Mephibosheth. I saw Mephibosheth falling. Mephibosheth fell because somebody.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Dropped him.
- 44:22Speaker 1: It wasn't even his fault. Somebody responsible And I saw
- 44:31Speaker 1: the terror of falling. I saw the loss of control
- 44:36Speaker 1: in the fall. I saw the loss of support in
- 44:39Speaker 1: the fall. And he fell. And he fell into Lodabar.
- 44:50Speaker 1: Like you fell into depression. Like you fell into obscurity.
- 44:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 44:56Speaker 1: Like you fell into silence. Like you fell into shame.
- 45:01Speaker 1: Like you fell into heartache. Like you fell into narcissism.
- 45:06Speaker 1: Like you fell into agony. The real problem is not
- 45:10Speaker 1: your fault.
- 45:11Speaker 2: Somebody.
- 45:11Speaker 1: They set a course on trajectory of fright and hysteria
- 45:21Speaker 1: because you have the feeling of being out of control.
- 45:25Speaker 1: And anytime you feel out of control, it triggers you.
- 45:33Speaker 1: Your trigger is instigated by the loss of control because
- 45:39Speaker 1: you have been dropped.
- 45:41Speaker 2: And etch into.
- 45:42Speaker 1: Your memory bank is the feeling of being out of control.
- 45:47Speaker 1: So you can only operate in controlled environments because when
- 45:52Speaker 1: you don't feel like you're in control, you become hysterical
- 45:56Speaker 1: because it triggers the trauma because somebody dropped you. So
- 46:01Speaker 1: Mephibosheth fell into Lodabar and he could not get himself out.
- 46:07Speaker 1: So David had to sweep for him. Come on, come on,
- 46:14Speaker 1: stay with me. So David's question, is there any left
- 46:18Speaker 1: of the house of Saul to whom I can show
- 46:21Speaker 1: kindness to, said to Ziba, go sweep for him. Find him,
- 46:26Speaker 1: he's down there in Lodabar, and Ziba swept him out.
- 46:30Speaker 1: The Holy Ghost said, God's gonna sweep you out. Some
- 46:33Speaker 1: of you have been dropped, but God's getting ready to
- 46:35Speaker 1: sweep you out. Some of you have fallen, but God's
- 46:38Speaker 1: getting ready to sweep you out. Some of you have
- 46:40Speaker 1: been let down, but God's getting ready.
- 46:42Speaker 2: To sweep you out.
- 46:43Speaker 1: Some of you are just flailing through life, but God
- 46:46Speaker 1: is getting ready to sweep you out. Some of you
- 46:48Speaker 1: have fallen into all kinds of addictions and problems and
- 46:51Speaker 1: pain and turmoil, and you said, how did I get here?
- 46:54Speaker 1: You got here because somebody dropped you, but you're going
- 46:57Speaker 1: to get out because somebody's going to sweep you. Slap
- 47:09Speaker 1: somebody and say, get ready for a comeback. Get ready
- 47:12Speaker 1: for a comeback. Get ready for a comeback. You fell
- 47:16Speaker 1: into something and you can't get out of it, but
- 47:18Speaker 1: get ready for a comeback. You fell into a relationship,
- 47:21Speaker 1: but get ready for a comeback. You fell into an addiction,
- 47:24Speaker 1: but get ready for a comeback. You fell into an attitude,
- 47:27Speaker 1: but get ready for a comeback. You fell into a
- 47:29Speaker 1: mood swing, but get ready for a comeback. You fell
- 47:32Speaker 1: into despair, but get ready for a comeback. What did
- 47:35Speaker 1: you come to church for anyway? Why come to church
- 47:37Speaker 1: if you're not willing to change? If you're not willing
- 47:40Speaker 1: to transform? If you're not willing to move? If you're
- 47:44Speaker 1: not willing to go to the next level? Somebody in
- 47:47Speaker 1: here was lost and about to be found. Somebody in here,
- 47:53Speaker 1: God is getting ready to put you back in the
- 47:55Speaker 1: position that you fell out of. Give him 30 seconds
- 48:00Speaker 1: of crazy, ridiculous time. Holy Ghost, hysterical, revolutionary, restorative prayer.
- 48:09Speaker 1: That ain't it. I said restorative prayer. The Lord just
- 48:45Speaker 1: spoke to me just now on my feet and told
- 48:47Speaker 1: me to tell you, stop praying about the situation. The
- 48:50Speaker 1: reason God didn't change in the situation is that God
- 48:53Speaker 1: is going to raise you out of the situation. You
- 48:56Speaker 1: didn't fall in it to change in it. You fell
- 48:59Speaker 1: in it to be swept out of it. God is
- 49:01Speaker 1: not going to change the situation because you're getting ready
- 49:03Speaker 1: to move. Nudge your neighbor and say, I'm getting ready
- 49:05Speaker 1: to move. It don't matter what you do with it.
- 49:07Speaker 1: It don't matter that you don't like me. It don't
- 49:09Speaker 1: matter that you don't appreciate me. It don't matter that
- 49:11Speaker 1: you don't affirm me because I'm getting ready to move.
- 49:14Speaker 1: God's got his broom out and he's getting ready to
- 49:17Speaker 1: sweep me into houses I didn't build, vineyards I didn't grow,
- 49:22Speaker 1: doors that I couldn't open, mountains that.
- 49:25Speaker 2: I couldn't move. I feel a sweeping wind.
- 49:29Speaker 1: Suddenly there came a sound from heaven like a mighty
- 49:33Speaker 1: rushing wind and God swept Let me run through the
- 49:52Speaker 1: woods and climb through the creek and wrap this up.
- 49:55Speaker 1: Mephibosheth fell as an individual. In Revelations, the church at
- 50:01Speaker 1: Ephesus fell as a collective. The Bible says to the
- 50:05Speaker 1: church at Ephesus in the book of Revelations, remember from
- 50:08Speaker 1: what great height you have fallen. Entire movements are falling.
- 50:23Speaker 1: And remember from what great height you have fallen has
- 50:28Speaker 1: always reminded me of erosion. Because if I fell like Mephibosheth,
- 50:33Speaker 1: I can't forget it. But if I fall gradually, I
- 50:39Speaker 1: can't remember it. If I fall suddenly, it's a trigger.
- 50:49Speaker 1: But if I fall gradually... I can't even notice it.
- 50:55Speaker 1: So God says, remember from what great height you have fallen.
- 51:01Speaker 1: That's the gradual erosion of your position, your status, or
- 51:09Speaker 1: your integrity. And you don't even know when you dropped it.
- 51:17Speaker 1: It wasn't a conscious decision to drop it. It was
- 51:21Speaker 1: a gradual erosion. Little by little, you shrunk. Lowered your standards.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Lowered your integrity. Little by little, you gave up you
- 51:38Speaker 1: to fit in with them. And now you're down here
- 51:43Speaker 1: in this low place. Let that go. And God says,
- 51:46Speaker 1: remember from what great height you were there. And look
- 51:51Speaker 1: at you now. You used to be excited to come
- 51:54Speaker 1: to church. Now it's a choice and it's an option.
- 51:58Speaker 1: You used to be the first one waiting on them
- 52:00Speaker 1: to open. When they going to open the door? Don't
- 52:02Speaker 1: make no sense. Why don't they open up the door?
- 52:04Speaker 1: You was fussing trying to get in. Now we can't
- 52:06Speaker 1: get you out of bed. And you don't even notice
- 52:08Speaker 1: what day it happened. The gradual erosion of the collective
- 52:19Speaker 1: is perhaps more traumatic than the sudden dropping of the
- 52:23Speaker 1: individual because the sudden dropping of the individual brought awareness.
- 52:29Speaker 1: Gradual erosions happen without notice. Remember from what great height
- 52:36Speaker 1: you have fallen. Can I go this deep on Sunday morning?
- 52:41Speaker 1: Do I have permission to go this deep? humanity fell
- 52:46Speaker 1: in the book of Genesis. When Eve was a partaker
- 52:50Speaker 1: of the fruit, humanity didn't fall. But when she, ooh,
- 52:54Speaker 1: it's one woman again. When she turned and gave it
- 52:58Speaker 1: to her husband, all humanity fell when he bit. And
- 53:06Speaker 1: everything in him fell. So everything that was born out
- 53:10Speaker 1: of their union was born fallen. So we don't have
- 53:15Speaker 1: to do anything wrong to be a sinner because to
- 53:18Speaker 1: be a sinner is not just an action, it's a state.
- 53:26Speaker 1: It's a position. I was born in the position. I
- 53:30Speaker 1: was born in iniquity. I was born in sin. I
- 53:35Speaker 1: was shaping in iniquity. If I was born in sin,
- 53:39Speaker 1: before I got to do anything, I was in it
- 53:41Speaker 1: before I did it. That's why I did it, because
- 53:45Speaker 1: I was in it. You can't help but do it
- 53:52Speaker 1: because you was born in it. Like the woman can't
- 53:55Speaker 1: help but sweep for the coin because anytime you sweep
- 53:59Speaker 1: for it, you have to be it to get it back. Kinsmen,
- 54:06Speaker 1: you got to be kin to what you're after. You
- 54:09Speaker 1: got to be kin to what you're after. Are you
- 54:10Speaker 1: hearing what I'm saying? You got to be kin to
- 54:12Speaker 1: what you're after. Can I go deeper? Jesus said, I
- 54:16Speaker 1: saw Lucifer falling from heaven. I saw him falling from heaven.
- 54:25Speaker 1: Final point I'm through. It's not even a point.
- 54:30Speaker 2: It's a prophecy.
- 54:33Speaker 1: There shall be a great sweeping There shall be a
- 54:44Speaker 1: great sweeping. But in order to get the great sweeping,
- 54:49Speaker 1: you have to be intentional. You don't sweep by accident.
- 54:56Speaker 1: The woman had an intentionality and an urgency in her sweep.
- 55:01Speaker 1: She is not distracted. She is not divided. She's not
- 55:09Speaker 1: cooking and sweeping. She's not looking out the window and sweeping.
- 55:13Speaker 1: She has put a high priority on the aggregate value
- 55:17Speaker 1: of getting back to the 10 in order to get
- 55:20Speaker 1: what you're after.
- 55:21Speaker 2: You're going to have to focus on it. You're going
- 55:23Speaker 2: to have to shut.
- 55:23Speaker 1: Out your ears to all outside noise and everything that
- 55:27Speaker 1: everybody's been saying to you to distract you. That is
- 55:30Speaker 1: not your battle. That is not your problem. That is
- 55:34Speaker 1: not your assignment. That is not your business. That is
- 55:37Speaker 1: not your situation. That is not your circumstance. That is
- 55:40Speaker 1: not your problem to solve. Quit letting everybody drop their
- 55:43Speaker 1: problems on you and letting their problems become your assignment.
- 55:47Speaker 1: In order for you to get the great sweeping, you're
- 55:49Speaker 1: going to have to focus. Who am I talking to?
- 55:52Speaker 1: I feel like a prophetic word is coming to somebody.
- 55:55Speaker 1: There shall be a great sweeping. Touch three people and say,
- 55:59Speaker 1: get ready to sweep for it.
- 56:08Speaker 2: Watch this. Watch this. Whoever I'm preaching to, I'm talking
- 56:20Speaker 2: to you. You getting this?
- 56:22Speaker 1: You're ready to receive this? You're open to receive this?
- 56:27Speaker 1: Are you open to receive this? If you're watching online,
- 56:30Speaker 1: are you open to receive this? If you're streaming on
- 56:33Speaker 1: the broadcast, are you open to receive this? This is
- 56:36Speaker 1: the word of the Lord to you. Thus saith the Lord,
- 56:42Speaker 1: you have lost place. You have lost place means you
- 56:49Speaker 1: have lost position. You are flying at a lower altitude
- 56:55Speaker 1: than what I created you to function on.
- 56:59Speaker 2: You have lost place.
- 57:03Speaker 1: Descending in altitude has put you in a different atmosphere.
- 57:09Speaker 2: You have lost place. Hear ye the word of the Lord. Amen.
- 57:16Speaker 1: You have entered into a turbulence that you're not designed
- 57:20Speaker 1: to fly in because you're.
- 57:22Speaker 2: Flying too low.
- 57:25Speaker 1: They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.
- 57:30Speaker 2: Why do I need strength?
- 57:31Speaker 1: Because I'm going to mount up on wings like eagles.
- 57:35Speaker 1: What do eagles do? They don't ride through the storm.
- 57:39Speaker 1: They ride above the storm. If you're in turbulence, if
- 57:42Speaker 1: you're in confusion, if you're in chaos, you're riding too low.
- 57:47Speaker 1: It's time to lift your wings and strengthen yourself and
- 57:51Speaker 1: get back at the altitude that That I created you
- 57:55Speaker 1: to fly in. You have lost place. You have lost time.
- 58:08Speaker 1: Every day you're lost. The nine are functioning at a deficit.
- 58:17Speaker 1: This woman is urgently sweeping. There's a time factor to it.
- 58:25Speaker 1: You don't have time to keep making the same mistakes
- 58:30Speaker 1: over and over again. You don't have time to repeat
- 58:34Speaker 1: the same cycle over and over again. What used to
- 58:38Speaker 1: throw me, don't throw me like it used to throw me.
- 58:40Speaker 2: Look at your neighbor and say, I don't have time.
- 58:42Speaker 2: I'm on a mission.
- 58:45Speaker 1: If it ain't sweeping, I ain't talking. If it ain't sweeping,
- 58:51Speaker 1: I'm not looking. If it's not sweeping, I'm not paying
- 58:54Speaker 1: it no attention. I don't have time to look out
- 58:57Speaker 1: the window. I don't have time to play games. This
- 59:01Speaker 1: is my last chance to sweep. Slap somebody and say,
- 59:05Speaker 1: sweep that thing. Sweep the whole house.
- 59:09Speaker 2: Sweep the... living room.
- 59:11Speaker 1: Sweep behind the couch. Sweep behind the chair. Sweep up
- 59:16Speaker 1: under the dining room table. God said you're about to
- 59:19Speaker 1: get everything you lost. Give him a praise somebody. You
- 59:36Speaker 1: lost place, you lost time, you lost environment because God
- 59:44Speaker 1: did not create you to be in the hog pen.
- 59:48Speaker 1: God did not create you to be lost in the house.
- 59:54Speaker 1: God did not create you to go to hell from church.
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: What is a dime going on the floor? How did
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: the dime get on the floor in the first place?
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: Somebody must have dropped it for it to get on
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: the floor. Nobody makes dimes for floors, but it's falling
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: into an environment that's beneath them. You have dumbed down
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: who you are so you could have company, but God
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: is getting ready.
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: To sweep you out.
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: He's going to sweep you out of that clique. He's
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: going to sweep you out of that club. He's going
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: to sweep you out of that association. Who am I
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: preaching to? So I'll stop with this. The Lord said
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: you've lost time. You've lost place. You've lost environment. Watch this.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: But you have not lost value You've lost time. You've
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: lost place. You're in a strange, lost environment. You're in Lodabar.
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: You don't belong in Lodabar. You belong in the king's house.
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: You're a king's kid. You're living beneath your privilege. But
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: you have not, wait, wait. You've lost time. You've lost place.
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: You've lost environment. You have not lost value. The dime
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: is worth as much on the floor. If I was
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: silver in the hand, I'm silver on the floor. If
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: I was gold on this level, I'm still gold on
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: the floor. That's why I stick out on the floor.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: That's why I don't fit in on the floor. That's
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: why I don't look right with dust and dirt on
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: the floor because I was not designed for what I
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: am in. Whoever I'm preaching to, you were not designed
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: for what you're in. That's why God is getting ready
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: to sweep you out. Watch this. But the first thing
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: you have to know is that everything that you've been
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: through that brought you down, whether somebody dropped you or
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: lost you or forgot you or forsook you, what they
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: could not do is diminish your value. I got more
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: message than I got time. So let me wrap this up.
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: The woman wouldn't be sweeping if she didn't recognize the value.
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: Of the dime.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: Of the 10th. It wasn't really a dime, I'm just
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: using a dime, because dime is something you can relate to.
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: She knows its value, or she wouldn't sweep for it.
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: If Jesus didn't know your value, he wouldn't have died
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: for you. You might have fell into drugs, you might
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: have fell into violence, you might have fell into abuse,
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: but you're still valuable. And that's why he's sweeping. He's
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: sweeping for you. They might have took your dignity. They
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: might have hurt your pride. They may have hurt your feelings,
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: but they have not hurt your value. You are worth
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: just as much on the floor as you are with
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: the nine.
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: Watch this.
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: But God is getting ready to sweep you back into
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: your rightful place. Hear the word of the Lord. It's
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: going to be fast. It's going to be sudden. It's
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: going to be strange now. Because you've been in Lodabar
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: so long that it looks familiar to you. So when
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: I get you back in your rightful place, you're not
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: going to have the language for the place you're in.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: I'm going to put you in a palace and you're
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: going to say I'm a dog. And it's going to
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: be a while before you get up off the floor.
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: Because when Mephibosheth came into the house.
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: Of the king, he fell on the floor.
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: Because he'd been down so long that whenever God raises
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: you up, you have a tendency to lay down. down
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: because you can't accept up because you've gotten used to
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: being down but God is getting ready to sweep you
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: into a place that when you first get there you're
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: gonna say I'm a dog because you've been living like
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: a dog but the devil is a lie you're not
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: a dog you're a king's kid And God's got a
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: table for you and a seat for you. And he's
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: going to get you up off of your knees. He's
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: going to get you up off of the floor. And
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: he's going to set you at a table and prepare
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: a table before you in the presence of your enemies
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: and anoint your head with oil. Spin around in a circle.
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: You're going into a spin. You're going into a sweep.
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: You're going into a tailspin. You're going out of your element.
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: You're going away from the familiar. God is getting ready
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: to sweep you. Open your mouth and holler. My final
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: word is for the saints of God. Every saint of
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: God who's lost something, a child, a relationship, a situation
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: that's been grieving your heart and the enemy said, give up.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: But the devil is a lie. The Holy Ghost told
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: me to tell you, don't be weary in well-going. You
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: shall reap in due season if you faint not.
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: Touch 10 people and say, keep sweeping. I need 10 people.
- 1:07:02Speaker 2: Keep sweeping. Keep sweeping.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: A breakthrough is about to come your way. A breakthrough
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: is about to happen with your child. A breakthrough is
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: about to happen in your spirit. Somebody give him a praise.
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: When you get to the 10th one, give God a
- 1:07:23Speaker 1: crazy praise.
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: Thank you.
