  FATHER, YOU ARE GREAT AND GREATLY TO BE PRAISED

  LORD, WE LIFT OUR HANDS AND SAY YOU ARE GREAT.
• 10:39
  JESUS.
• 10:46
  (MUSIC)
• 19:03
  I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT I JUST KEEP FEELING.
• 19:06
  YOU KNOW WHAT?
• 19:09
  THERE'S NOTHING TOO HARD FOR OUR GOD, AMEN
• 19:15
  (MUSIC)
• 19:37
  I JUST SAY THAT TONIGHT DOESN'T MATTER

  WHAT YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF
• 19:44
  (MUSIC)
• 20:07
  COME ON, TELL 'EM, TELL 'EM
• 20:09
  (MUSIC)
• 21:01
  YOU'RE SO GREAT
• 21:05
  IF YOU DID NOTHING YET
• 21:10
  YOU'D STILL BE GREAT
• 21:13
  YOU'D STILL BE GREAT
• 21:20
  YOU'RE SO GREAT
• 21:25
  YOU'RE SO GREAT
• 21:30
  OH, WE SERVE A GREAT, GREAT GOD, AMEN.
• 21:36
  IF HE'D DONE NOTHING ELSE FOR ME,
• 21:39
  NOTHING ELSE, AND I KNOW HE WILL,
• 21:44
  I KNOW HE WILL, BUT EVERYTHING HE'S DONE,
• 21:50
  SAVING ME, DELIVERING ME, SETTING ME FREE,
• 21:57
  DELIVERING ME FROM MY PAST,
• 22:01
  IF HE DID NOTHING ELSE, I'D LOVE HIM JUST THE SAME.
• 22:06
  I'D LOVE HIM JUST THE SAME.
• 22:12
  DO YOU LOVE HIM TONIGHT?
• 22:15
  FATHER, WE LOVE YOU TONIGHT.
• 22:19
  AND AS PASTOR HANK DOES, WE'RE JUST GONNA BLOW YOU
• 22:22
  A KISS TONIGHT, 'CAUSE WE LOVE YOU THAT MUCH.
• 22:27
  FATHER, WE LOVE YOU.
• 22:30
  WE'RE GRATEFUL TO BE IN YOUR PRESENCE.
• 22:37
  WE LOVE YOU, JESUS.
• 22:40
  WE LOVE YOU, JESUS.
• 22:44
  TURN AROUND AND TELL SOME PEOPLE HOW GREAT YOUR GOD IS.
• 22:48
  (MUSIC)
• 23:30
  HALLELUJAH! GOD IS GREAT!
• 23:35
  AMEN! IT'S OFFERING TIME. GLORY TO GOD.
• 23:39
  WEDNESDAY NIGHT, LOH.
• 23:41
  GET READY.
• 23:43
  PASTOR CHRISTY IS GOING TO CONTINUE HER REVELATION ON HOW
• 23:46
  TO UNLOCK OUR HARVEST HERE SHORTLY, SO I'M NOT GOING TO
• 23:48
  TAKE TOO LONG. THEY'LL PUT THE OFFERING SCRIPTURE UP FOR THE
• 23:51
  EVENING. IT IS PROVERBS 3:9, AND 10, AND I'M GOING TO LOOK AT IT
• 23:58
  REAL QUICK FIRST IN THE NLT. IT'S SHORT, BUT IT SAYS, "HONOR
• 24:02
  THE LORD WITH YOUR WEALTH AND WITH THE BEST PART OF EVERYTHING
• 24:07
  YOU PRODUCE. THEN HE WILL FILL YOUR BARNS WITH GRAIN AND YOUR
• 24:13
  VATS WILL OVERFLOW WITH GOOD WINE." I LIKE THE NLT BECAUSE IT
• 24:19
  GIVES ME THAT GRACE FEELING. BUT I ALSO LIKE THE AMPLIFIED
• 24:24
  BECAUSE IT'S LOUD AND I CAN HEAR IT BETTER. SO IN THE AMPLIFIED
• 24:28
  CLASSIC IT SAYS, "HONOR THE LORD WITH YOUR CAPITAL AND
• 24:33
  SUFFICIENCY, FROM RIGHTEOUS LABORS AND WITH THE FIRST FRUITS
• 24:37
  OF ALL YOUR INCOME. SO SHALL YOUR STORAGE PLACES BE FILLED
• 24:43
  WITH PLENTY, AND YOUR VATS SHALL BE OVERFLOWING WITH NEW WINE? I
• 24:49
  ALWAYS ASK MYSELF, WHAT EXACTLY ARE OUR STORAGE PLACES? WELL,
• 24:54
  THEY MIGHT BE YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNTS, THEY MIGHT BE MONEY
• 24:58
  MARKET ACCOUNTS, CDS, YOUR BROKERAGE ACCOUNTS, YOUR IRAS,
• 25:03
  YOUR 401KS, ANY PLACE YOU'VE GOT CASH STASHED. OR THEY MIGHT JUST
• 25:10
  BE YOUR KITCHEN CUPBOARDS, YOUR PANTRY, EVEN YOUR BEDROOM
• 25:13
  CLOSET, ANYWHERE YOU WOULD CHOOSE TO STORE YOUR
• 25:17
  SUFFICIENCY. AND IT'S GONNA BE FILLED WITH PLENTY, NO MATTER
• 25:21
  WHERE IT IS. SO IN OTHER WORDS, INVEST IN THE KINGDOM ECONOMY,
• 25:28
  AND IF YOU GIVE GENEROUSLY FROM WHAT THE LORD HAS PROVIDED FOR
• 25:32
  YOU AND PUT IN YOUR POSSESSION, ALL THE MORE WILL BE GIVEN BACK
• 25:36
  TO YOU. AND HONORING THE LORD REALLY MEANS USING OUR WEALTH
• 25:41
  FOR RIGHTEOUS PURPOSES. GIVING OF OUR HARVEST OR INCREASE, IT'S
• 25:47
  A RECOGNITION THAT EVERYTHING WE ARE AND EVERYTHING WE HAVE IS
• 25:52
  ALL FROM GOD ANYWAY. IT REALLY IS ALL HIS. THANK YOU, LORD.
• 26:01
  PSALM 24:1 IN THE NLT SAYS, "THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S AND
• 26:06
  EVERYTHING IN IT." THE LIVING BIBLE, WHICH I ALSO LIKE, SAYS,
• 26:10
  "THE EARTH BELONGS TO GOD. EVERYTHING IN ALL THE WORLD IS
• 26:15
  HIS." AND JAMES 1:17 TELLS US, "EVERY GOOD GIFT AND EVERY
• 26:20
  PERFECT GIFT IS FROM ABOVE AND COMES DOWN FROM THE FATHER OF
• 26:25
  LIGHTS WITH WHOM THERE IS NO VARIATION OR SHADOW OF TURNING."
• 26:30
  AND SO THAT POINTS TO THE FACT THAT GOD IS UNCHANGING. HE IS
• 26:34
  THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER, AND PART OF THAT
• 26:39
  UNCHANGING CHARACTER IS HIS GENEROSITY. AND BY HONORING THAT
• 26:44
  CHARACTER AND EMULATING THAT GENEROSITY, BY OBSERVING HIS
• 26:48
  COMMANDMENTS, WE WILL LIVE IN THE BLESSING AND WE WILL
• 26:52
  EXPERIENCE THE TYPE OF PROSPERITY THAT'S DESCRIBED IN
• 26:55
  DEUTERONOMY 28:8, WHERE IT SAYS, "THE LORD WILL COMMAND THE
• 27:00
  BLESSING ON YOU IN YOUR BARNS AND IN ALL THAT YOU SET YOUR
• 27:04
  HANDS TO, AND HE WILL BLESS YOU IN THE LAND WHICH THE LORD YOUR
• 27:10
  GOD IS GIVING YOU." IF YOU HONOR GOD, HE WILL HONOR YOU. HE WILL
• 27:15
  BLESS YOU IN WAYS THAT ARE SURPRISING, UNEXPECTED, EVEN
• 27:19
  ASTONISHING, AS I'VE SAID UP HERE IN THE PAST. AFTER I DID
• 27:24
  LAST WEEK'S OFFERING MESSAGE, I WAS QUESTIONED BY SEVERAL PEOPLE
• 27:30
  AS TO WHY I DIDN'T INCLUDE A TESTIMONY. ONE PERSON WENT SO
• 27:36
  FAR AS TO SAY IT SEEMED WEIRD THAT THERE WAS NO TESTIMONY
• 27:40
  INCLUDING IN MY OFFERING MESSAGE. SO I GUESS THAT'S A
• 27:42
  THING. I DON'T KNOW. SO I GUESS IF I'M RECEIVING THE OFFER, I'M
• 27:46
  SUPPOSED TO SHARE A TESTIMONY. I'M GOING TO DO A BRIEF ONE
• 27:49
  TONIGHT SINCE I PREFER NOT TO BE THOUGHT OF AS WEIRD. AND I JUST
• 27:54
  WANT TO TRY TO GET ON TRACK HERE. BACK ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO, I
• 27:59
  WAS IN A SITUATION WHEN THEY ARE SOUTHEASTERN VIRGINIA, WHERE I
• 28:03
  KNEW THAT I HAD TO DO SOMETHING TO BOLSTER MY INCOME. I NEEDED
• 28:09
  TO MAKE A CAREER MOVE, BUT I HAD NO CLEAR DIRECTION. NOW, OF
• 28:14
  COURSE, WE HONOR GOD IN OUR GIVING, SO WE KNEW THAT WAS
• 28:17
  COMING, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW HOW IT WAS GOING TO COME. AND
• 28:20
  UNBEKNOWNST TO ME, WHEN I WAS OUT DRIVING AROUND ONE DAY IN MY
• 28:24
  SALES FUNCTION, MY LOVELY WIFE KATE DECIDED THAT SHE WOULD
• 28:28
  APPLY FOR A JOB FOR ME. NOW YOU GOTTA THINK BACK 15 YEARS AGO,
• 28:32
  THAT WASN'T JUST THE EASIEST THING TO DO. THERE WAS NO
• 28:35
  INDEED, THERE WAS NO SOCIAL MEDIA, WE DIDN'T HAVE LINKEDIN
• 28:39
  ACCOUNTS, AT LEAST WE DIDN'T, WE'RE LAGGARDS I GUESS. BUT SHE
• 28:45
  FOUND A WAY TO DO THIS AND JUST BY THE HOLY SPIRIT FIGURED OUT
• 28:48
  WELL THIS IS THE ONE I'M GONNA SEND IT OFF TO, SENDS OUT ONE
• 28:50
  RESUME AND BEFORE THE END OF THE DAY, BEFORE I EVEN GOT BACK IN
• 28:53
  THE DRIVEWAY, I GOT A PHONE CALL FROM THE CEO OF THAT COMPANY.
• 28:57
  AND I WOUND UP INTERVIEWING BEFORE I EVER GOT IN THE HOUSE.
• 29:03
  YOU HONOR GOD, HE'S GONNA HONOR YOU. I MEAN, THERE'S JUST NO
• 29:06
  DOUBT ABOUT IT. AND SO IT GETS BETTER BECAUSE WITHIN NINE DAYS,
• 29:12
  I WAS THEN ON A FLIGHT FROM WILLIAMSBURG, VIRGINIA TO LOS
• 29:16
  ANGELES FOR TRAINING. AND NINE DAYS AFTER THAT, WE WERE DRIVING
• 29:20
  A TRUCK, A MOVING TRUCK TO WASHINGTON, D.C. TO LIVE. NOW,
• 29:27
  OBVIOUSLY FOR THAT TO TAKE PLACE, THERE'S MULTIPLE OTHER
• 29:30
  MINOR MIRACLES INVOLVED. AND I DON'T WANNA PROLONG THIS FOR
• 29:34
  VERY LONG, BUT I'LL JUST SHARE ONE. THERE WAS A YOUTH PASTOR
• 29:37
  THAT WE HAD KNOWN BACK IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK SEVERAL YEARS
• 29:40
  PRIOR, AND HE HAD MOVED BEFORE WE DID, AND HE WAS, WE DIDN'T
• 29:44
  KNOW EXACTLY WHERE HE WAS, BUT HE WAS ABOUT 30 MILES SOUTH OF
• 29:47
  US IN VIRGINIA. WELL, WHEN WE WERE STARTING TO PACK UP, HE
• 29:51
  CAME BY JUST TO CHECK IN ON US AND SEE WHAT'S UP. AND SO WE
• 29:56
  SAID, WELL, WE'RE MOVING. AND HE SAID, WELL, WHEN? AND WE GAVE
• 30:00
  HIM A PROJECTED DATE AND EVERYTHING. SO HE GOES AND
• 30:03
  RECRUITS FOUR OF HIS BRUTISH YOUNG MEN FROM THE YOUTH
• 30:07
  MINISTRY IN THE NEW CHURCH THAT HE'S AT, AND THEY ALL COME UP
• 30:10
  THE DAY THAT IT'S MOVING DAY, LOADED EVERY SINGLE THING ON THE
• 30:14
  TRUCK, PACKED IT BEAUTIFULLY, SEALED IT UP, SENT US ON OUR WAY
• 30:18
  TO DC, AND ALL I HAD TO DO WAS PAY FOR A PIZZA. THAT'S AN
• 30:22
  UNEXPECTED AND AMAZING BLESSING. IT'S ASTONISHING WHEN I THINK
• 30:26
  BACK ON IT. IT'S THE FAVOR OF GOD. LET'S PUT THE GIVING
• 30:30
  INFORMATION ON THE SCREENS. I'LL CALL IT GOOD. I GOT MORE TO DO
• 30:33
  WITH THAT, I DON'T WANT TO KEEP YOU ALL NIGHT. YOU CAN SEE THERE
• 30:37
  ARE MULTIPLE WAYS TO GIVE. TEXT TO GIVE, MY FAVORITE. GO TO THE
• 30:43
  WEBSITE, LOHCHURCH.ORG/GIVE. USE THE MOBILE APP, SCAN YOUR QR
• 30:50
  CODE, AND WE STILL LOVE TO RECEIVE ENVELOPES IN THE MAIL
• 30:53
  WHEN THEY DO SHOW UP. AND THAT ADDRESS IS UP THERE FOR YOU AS
• 30:57
  WELL. IF YOU'RE IN HERE AND YOU NEED AN ENVELOPE, WE GOT USHERS
• 31:01
  IN THE AISLES. LET'S GIVE GOD GREAT HONOR TONIGHT. LET'S SHOW
• 31:07
  OUR GREAT GENEROSITY AND OUR APPRECIATION AND OUR HONOR FOR
• 31:10
  THE LORD FOR ALL THAT HE HAS DONE. AND IF EVERYBODY IS READY,
• 31:17
  WE CAN HOLD UP OUR ENVELOPES OR OUR DEVICES AND I'LL PRAY A
• 31:23
  QUICK BLESSING OVER THEM. HEAVENLY FATHER, WE THANK YOU
• 31:26
  THAT AS WE HONOR YOU, YOU WILL HONOR US, THAT YOU WILL INCREASE
• 31:30
  US MORE AND MORE TO OVERFLOWING AS WE GIVE OUT OF OUR
• 31:34
  SUFFICIENCY. THANK YOU, LORD, FOR PROVIDING FOR EVERY NEED
• 31:38
  EVEN BEFORE WE CAN PERCEIVE IT OR DECIDE ANYTHING IN OUR MIND
• 31:42
  THAT WOULD SEND US IN THE WRONG DIRECTION AND FOR GIVING US
• 31:45
  TESTIMONIES OF YOUR FOREVER GOODNESS, YOUR ETERNAL
• 31:49
  FAITHFULNESS, AND WE DECLARE THAT WE ARE HEALED, WHOLE, AND
• 31:53
  PROSPEROUS, EVERY GIVER IN HERE AND ONLINE IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF
• 31:58
  JESUS, AMEN. AND NOW LET'S WELCOME PASTOR CHRISTY. ALL
• 32:09
  RIGHT. CHECK, CHECK. THERE WE ARE. ALL RIGHT, HOW IS EVERYBODY
• 32:15
  DOING TONIGHT? SO HOW MANY OF YOU THOUGHT PASTOR BRENDA WAS
• 32:20
  GONNA BE HERE TONIGHT? 'CAUSE SHE MIGHT HAVE SAID IT. SO I'M
• 32:24
  HERE TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT. SHE DID NOT NOT COME BECAUSE OF
• 32:28
  JONATHAN'S FIGHT LAST NIGHT. THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
• 32:32
  WE ACTUALLY TALKED ON MONDAY AND SHE GOES, "I KIND OF FEEL LIKE I
• 32:36
  OVERCOMMITTED." 'CAUSE HOW MANY OF YOU KNEW PASTOR HANK FLEW OUT
• 32:39
  SUNDAY, TURNED AROUND, FLEW OUT MONDAY FOR LAS VEGAS TO GO BE
• 32:43
  WITH JONATHAN, AND THEN HE DIDN'T FLY BACK UNTIL THIS
• 32:48
  MORNING. AND SO THEN HE GOT BACK THIS AFTERNOON, THEN PASTOR'S
• 32:51
  GONNA BE TAPING, AND SO SHE'S LIKE, YOU KNOW, FEEL LIKE I
• 32:54
  WANNA COOK MY HUSBAND A GOOD HOME-COOKED MEAL. I SAID, YOU
• 32:56
  TAKE CARE OF THAT, I GOT THIS, AND I'LL JUST CONTINUE THE
• 32:59
  MESSAGE. SO SHE DID NOT SHOW UP BECAUSE OF THE FIGHT. AND BY THE
• 33:04
  WAY, JUST BEFORE I CAME OUT HERE A LITTLE BIT AGO, JONATHAN
• 33:07
  FACETIMED ME. AND HOW MANY OF YOU, DID ANY OF YOU WATCH THE
• 33:12
  MMA FIGHT LAST NIGHT? A LOT OF YOU DID. OBVIOUSLY THAT DID NOT
• 33:16
  GO THE WAY HE HOPED. AND YOU KNOW, HE WAS HEARTBROKEN. I
• 33:20
  MEAN, HE'S IN GOOD SPIRITS. BUT, AND SO EVERYBODY'S ASKING HIM,
• 33:25
  "JONATHAN, WHY DIDN'T YOU TAP OUT?" HE GOES, "'CAUSE I THOUGHT
• 33:28
  I WAS WINNING." AND HE GOES, "I WAS LANDING SOME REALLY GOOD
• 33:33
  PUNCHES. I WAS DOING A LOT OF DAMAGE WHEN I WAS IN THERE." AND
• 33:35
  HE GOES, "SO I WASN'T GONNA TAP OUT." WHICH I KNEW HE WOULDN'T
• 33:39
  ANYWAY. MATTER OF FACT, JUDY TEXTED ME. SHE GOES, "I THOUGHT
• 33:42
  HE WOULD TAP." I SAID, "NO, I KNOW THAT BOY. HE'S STUBBORN
• 33:46
  LIKE HIS MAMA." I LOVE YOU, PASTOR BRENDA, IF YOU'RE
• 33:49
  WATCHING. AND HE'S JUST GOT A NO QUIT IN HIM. AND PASTOR BRENDA,
• 33:56
  AND OF COURSE, PASTOR HANK AND PASTOR BRENDA BOTH HAVE NO QUIT
• 34:00
  IN THEM. SO HE DIDN'T TAP. BUT SO HE IS, HE'S ACTUALLY ON HIS
• 34:06
  WAY, I'M GETTING THIS A LITTLE CLOSER 'CAUSE I'M GONNA SIT DOWN
• 34:09
  TONIGHT AND JUST GET COMFY. SO HE IS ON HIS WAY, RIGHT NOW
• 34:15
  PROBABLY, TO GO GET AN MRI DONE. AND THEY'RE GONNA CHECK FOR ANY
• 34:19
  LIGAMENT DAMAGE. BUT YOU KNOW, HE ACTUALLY DID REALLY GOOD. AND
• 34:24
  ACTUALLY, THE OTHER GUY LOOKED WORSE THAN JONATHAN. I MEAN,
• 34:28
  REALLY WHAT KIND OF SEALED IT FOR JONATHAN WAS THE ARMBAR. BUT
• 34:30
  I GUESS THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE SAYING THAT
• 34:32
  THEY DIDN'T THINK THE JUDGES GOT IT RIGHT. SO, WHO KNOWS? I'M NOT
• 34:36
  A, I AM NOT AN MMA AFICIONADO TO BE HONEST. I NEVER WATCHED A DAY
• 34:40
  IN MY LIFE UNTIL JONATHAN DECIDED THAT THAT'S WHAT HE WAS
• 34:44
  PURSUING. AND SO THAT'S NOT MY PREFERRED STYLE OF SPORTS. MOST
• 34:48
  OF THE SPORTS THAT I LIKE TO WATCH HAVE A BALL INVOLVED.
• 34:50
  (CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
• 34:52
  AND, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S A BALL, LIKE I'M ALL IN THAT, YOU
• 34:57
  KNOW, NOT JUST, I'M HERE TO SEE WHO, YOU KNOW, IF YOU CAN BEAT
• 35:01
  ME UP OR NOT. SO, BUT ANYWAY, JONATHAN, WE LOVE YOU. HE REALLY
• 35:05
  DID VERY, VERY GOOD AND THIS ISN'T OVER FOR HIM.
• 35:07
  (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
• 35:11
  HE'S PLANNING ON, HE'S ALREADY PLANNING HIS REHAB AND GETTING
• 35:14
  READY TO WORK WITH HIS PT PERSON AND HE'S HOPING HE'S BACK IN SIX
• 35:19
  TO EIGHT WEEKS. AND OF COURSE, AND THIS DOESN'T EVEN MEAN, SO
• 35:23
  WITH THE CONTENDER SERIES, I GUESS YOU CAN GET BACK IN ON IT.
• 35:26
  AND THEN SOMETIMES THEY EVEN CALL PEOPLE UP BECAUSE THEY NEED
• 35:30
  SOMEBODY TO TAKE A FIGHT. SO THAT IS WHERE THAT IS AT. AND
• 35:35
  SO, BUT YEAH, HE'S DOING GOOD. I MEAN, YEAH, IT'S NOT WHAT HE
• 35:39
  HOPED FOR, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE'S QUITTING, SO DON'T THINK
• 35:43
  THAT. AND YOU KNOW, AGAIN, JONATHAN, I LOVE HIM, BUT HE'S
• 35:50
  THERE HOLDING THE THUMBS UP AS THE GUY IS BENDING HIS ARM THE
• 35:53
  WRONG WAY, AND WHICH HIS ARM IS NOT BROKEN. IT IS FRACTURED, BUT
• 35:59
  IT IS NOT BROKEN, SO THEN THEY'RE GONNA CHECK THE LIGAMENT
• 36:01
  DAMAGE. BUT OTHER THAN THAT, HE ALSO SAID, YOU KNOW, WHEN THAT
• 36:05
  GUY WAS HITTING ME, HE GOES, IT DIDN'T EVEN HURT. HE GOES, HE
• 36:08
  WASN'T REALLY DOING ANY DAMAGE. SO HE DIDN'T REALLY SUSTAIN MUCH
• 36:12
  DAMAGE AT ALL EXCEPT FOR THE ARM BAR. BUT PRAISE GOD. ANYWAY, HOW
• 36:18
  MANY OF YOU ARE EXCITED TO BE IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD ON A
• 36:20
  WEDNESDAY NIGHT?
• 36:21
  (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
• 36:23
  NOW I DID WANNA LET EVERYBODY KNOW THE GAME NIGHT THAT WAS
• 36:27
  SCHEDULED FOR GAME CHANGERS ON FRIDAY NIGHT, THEY'RE CANCELING
• 36:30
  IT BECAUSE THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUT ON THE LAWN AND THEY WERE
• 36:33
  PREPARED FOR THAT AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO RAIN. WE'VE BEEN
• 36:36
  GETTING A LOT OF RAIN LATELY, WHICH I KNOW WE NEED, BUT IT
• 36:39
  SEEMS TO BE POPPING UP AT THE WORST TIMES, BUT HEY, WHATEVER,
• 36:44
  WE'LL TAKE IT. AND HOPEFULLY AT SOME POINT THE HUMIDITY THAT
• 36:48
  WE'VE BEEN HAVING IS GONNA BREAK 'CAUSE IT'S BEEN REALLY HUMID.
• 36:53
  LIKE YOU WALK OUTSIDE AND EVERYTHING FOGS UP. SO IF YOU
• 36:59
  WEAR GLASSES, THEY FOG UP. SO HOW MANY OF YOU WERE HERE FOR
• 37:05
  LAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT? WE TALKED ABOUT UNLOCKING YOUR HARVEST
• 37:07
  SEASON. AND SO WE'RE GONNA KIND OF CONTINUE ON THAT SAME THEME
• 37:12
  TONIGHT. BUT WE TALKED ABOUT LAST WEEK THAT IN GENESIS 8:22,
• 37:18
  IT SAYS AS LONG AS THE EARTH REMAINS, THERE IS SEED, TIME,
• 37:23
  AND HARVEST. AND SO ANYTIME WE PLANT SEED, AND BY THE WAY, WHEN
• 37:28
  WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SEED, WE'RE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT MONETARY
• 37:32
  SEEDS. DO YOU KNOW WE SOW SEEDS ALL THROUGHOUT OUR LIVES, IN
• 37:36
  EVERYTHING THAT WE DO, WE CAN SOW SEEDS OF KINDNESS, SEEDS OF
• 37:40
  RIGHTEOUSNESS, SEEDS OF MERCY. WE CAN SOW SEEDS THAT ARE EVIL.
• 37:45
  BUT THE LAW OR THE PRINCIPLE OF THE KINGDOM IS BASED ON SEED
• 37:49
  PLANTING, WHICH JESUS TALKED ABOUT IN LUKE CHAPTER FOUR, OR
• 37:56
  MARK CHAPTER FOUR, EXCUSE ME. AND SO WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IF
• 38:01
  THERE IS A PRINCIPLE THAT JESUS IS TEACHING, WE SHOULD TAKE NOTE
• 38:04
  OF THAT BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE KINGDOM IS BUILT ON. SO WE ALSO
• 38:09
  TALKED ABOUT THAT WE NEED TO PLOW, YOU KNOW, AND IF WE'RE
• 38:15
  PLOWING, WE'RE BREAKING UP THE HARD GROUND SO THAT OUR SEEDS
• 38:20
  CAN GO INTO THE GROUND AND THEY CAN PRODUCE FRUIT. AND IF WE'RE
• 38:23
  NOT PLOWING, THEN TYPICALLY, WE'RE NOT GONNA PRODUCE THE
• 38:26
  HARVEST THAT WE WANT. WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT THAT THEN YOU HAVE
• 38:30
  TO SOW. IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO HAVE YOUR GROUND STIRRED UP AND
• 38:34
  THAT'S LIKE SAYING, OH LORD, I'VE STIRRED UP MY HEART FOR
• 38:39
  YOU, BUT THEN YOU'RE NOT PUTTING SEED IN THERE. THAT DOESN'T GIVE
• 38:42
  ANYTHING FOR GOD TO WORK WITH. SO, AND THEN OF COURSE, WE
• 38:46
  TALKED ABOUT HOW WE GOTTA GET RID OF THE WEEDS THAT KILL THE
• 38:51
  SEEDS. SO IF WE'RE NOT GETTING RID OF THOSE WEEDS, WE CAN'T
• 38:55
  EXPECT A HARVEST TO COME, OR AT LEAST NOT IN THE MAGNITUDE THAT
• 39:00
  WE'RE BELIEVING GOD FOR. AND SOMETIMES THERE'S SO MANY THINGS
• 39:04
  THAT WE LET POP UP IN OUR LIFE, AND WE DON'T DEAL WITH IT, AND
• 39:09
  THEN SOMETIMES WE'RE WONDERING WHY WE'RE NOT GETTING THE
• 39:12
  ANSWERS THAT WE BELIEVE FOR. SO AGAIN, WE'VE GOTTA BE, AND WE'RE
• 39:17
  NOT GONNA GO THROUGH ALL OF THAT AGAIN TONIGHT, BUT THEN THE
• 39:21
  FOURTH ONE THAT WE SAID WAS WE GOTTA WATER THE SEED. YOU KNOW,
• 39:24
  YOU DON'T JUST PUT A PLANT IN THE GROUND OR PUT SEEDS IN THE
• 39:27
  GROUND AND JUST LEAVE THEM THERE TO THEIR OWN DEVICES AND JUST
• 39:31
  HOPE FOR THE RAIN TO COME. WELL, IT GOES BETTER IF YOU HAVE AN
• 39:37
  IRRIGATION SYSTEM AND THAT MEANS THAT YOU'RE CONTINUALLY
• 39:41
  PROPHESYING TO THOSE SEEDS, YOU'RE CONTINUALLY DOING THE
• 39:44
  SAME THINGS OVER AND OVER THAT ARE WATERING THOSE SEEDS. SO
• 39:48
  THAT WAS THE FOURTH PRINCIPLE AND THEN THE FIFTH ONE WAS JUST
• 39:50
  BEING ABLE TO WAIT AND SOMETIMES WE LOSE THE BATTLE FOR THE
• 39:56
  HARVEST IN THE WAITING BECAUSE THAT'S SOMETIMES THE HARDEST
• 40:00
  PART IS THAT WE WANT EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW AND WE DON'T SOMETIMES
• 40:06
  WAIT FOR THOSE THINGS TO GROW UP AND TO BECOME FRUITFUL WHEN THEY
• 40:12
  SHOULD. SO WE'RE GONNA CONTINUE WITH PART TWO, BUT WHAT WE'RE
• 40:16
  GONNA TALK ABOUT TONIGHT IS THAT, YOU KNOW, IS OUR MENTALITY
• 40:23
  WHEN WE'RE BELIEVING GOD FOR HARVEST. YOU KNOW, HOW MANY OF
• 40:27
  YOU, YOU DON'T HAVE TO RAISE YOUR HAND, BUT HOW MANY OF YOU
• 40:29
  ARE BELIEVING FOR GOD TO DO SOMETHING FOR YOU? AND IT FEELS
• 40:35
  LIKE SOMETIMES IT'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF A SEASON. AND
• 40:40
  WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHY WE HAVE GOT TO LEARN
• 40:47
  TO COMMAND OURSELVES SO THAT WE DON'T MISS THE SEASON OF
• 40:53
  HARVEST. AND WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT HOW THE DEVIL, HE COMES IN
• 40:58
  AND HE TRIES TO SCHEME TO STEAL WHAT'S BEEN PLANTED. AND THE
• 41:03
  BIBLE SAYS HE CAN ONLY DEVOUR, OR HE SEEKS WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR,
• 41:07
  SO HE CAN ONLY DEVOUR IF WE ALLOW IT. AND SO WE HAVE TO
• 41:10
  LEARN TO BE GUARDIANS OF OUR HARVEST. WE HAVE TO BE, IF
• 41:14
  YOU'RE CALLED OF GOD, EVERYBODY IN THIS ROOM IS CALLED OF GOD,
• 41:16
  BUT IF YOU'RE CALLED OF GOD, YOU'VE GOTTA BE A GUARDIAN OR A
• 41:19
  STEWARD OF YOUR CALL. IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN, YOU'VE GOTTA BE A
• 41:22
  GUARDIAN AND A STEWARD OF YOUR KIDS. BECAUSE EVENTUALLY, IF WE
• 41:28
  DON'T PUT IN OUR KIDS WHAT THE RIGHT PIECE IS, I LEARNED A LONG
• 41:32
  TIME AGO, I CAN'T SHELTER MY KIDS, AND I MEAN, THEY LIVE A
• 41:35
  PRETTY SHELTERED LIFE 'CAUSE WE'RE PRETTY BORING IN OUR
• 41:40
  LIVES. THERE'S A LOT THEY CAN'T LISTEN TO, THERE'S A LOT THEY
• 41:43
  CAN'T WATCH, AND THEY KNOW IT. BUT YOU KNOW, ONE DAY, AS
• 41:50
  THEY'RE GROWING, THEY BECOME MORE AND MORE INDEPENDENT FROM
• 41:53
  MOM AND DAD. AND WHEN THEY BECOME MORE AND MORE INDEPENDENT
• 41:56
  FROM MOM AND DAD, THEY START MAKING DECISIONS FOR THEMSELVES.
• 41:59
  SO IF WE'RE NOT SHEPHERDING THE SEEDS THAT WE'VE PLANTED IN THEM
• 42:03
  WHILE WE HAVE THEM, THEN WE MIGHT NOT GET THE HARVEST THAT
• 42:07
  WE WANT. SO WE DO OUR BEST. YOU KNOW, BUT IN THE END, WE ALSO
• 42:11
  HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT GOD'S GONNA DO IT, RIGHT? BECAUSE AT SOME
• 42:15
  POINT, YOUR KIDS DO HAVE TO GO OUT OF YOUR HOME, AND THE GOD
• 42:19
  THAT IS YOUR GOD HAS TO BECOME THEIR GOD. AND YOU CAN'T MAKE
• 42:22
  THAT CHOICE. I MEAN, I WISH WE COULD'VE JUST LIKE SAID, OKAY,
• 42:25
  LISTEN, WE SIGNED A CONTRACT, AND THIS IS, YOU DON'T GET A
• 42:29
  CHOICE. BUT THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS. BUT YOU KNOW, LISTEN, BUT
• 42:38
  GOD'S GOT IT. HE SAID IF WE TRAIN A CHILD UP IN THE WAY HE
• 42:40
  SHOULD GO, IN THE END HE'S NOT GONNA DEPART FROM IT. SO EVEN IF
• 42:43
  IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S DEPARTURE HAPPENING, WE HAVE TO BELIEVE
• 42:46
  GOD. AND I TALKED TO ONE OF OUR YOUNG LADIES OUT AT CAMP, AND WE
• 42:52
  HAVE SO MANY GOOD YOUNGSTERS OUT THERE, AND I SAID, "YOU KNOW,
• 42:55
  HOW YOU DOING?" SHE GOES, "WELL, YOU KNOW, I'M DOING GOOD, "BUT
• 42:58
  YOU KNOW, I DON'T ALWAYS LIKE LISTENING "TO MY MOM AND DAD."
• 43:01
  I'M LIKE, "WELL, YOU WOULDN'T BE THE FIRST AND THE ONLY." BUT SHE
• 43:08
  SAID, "BUT YOU KNOW, MAN, "GOD'S REALLY MINISTERING TO ME." SO
• 43:12
  AGAIN, GOD'S GOT OUR KIDS TOO. SO LET'S TURN IN OUR BIBLES OVER
• 43:16
  TO PROVERBS 24, VERSE 10, AND LET'S GET STARTED. AND IT SAYS,
• 43:24
  AND THIS IS FROM THE KING JAMES, AND I LIKE THE WAY THE KING
• 43:26
  JAMES SAYS IT. IT SAYS, "IF YOU FAINT IN THE DAY OF ADVERSITY,
• 43:32
  "YOUR STRENGTH IS SMALL." NOW, I DON'T PARTICULARLY LOVE THAT
• 43:38
  SCRIPTURE, IF I'M HONEST. BECAUSE THAT SAYS, TO ME,
• 43:43
  REALLY, IN THE PASTOR CHRISTY LANGUAGE, IT SAYS, "BUCK UP,
• 43:46
  BUTTERCUP." YOU DON'T GET TO SIT DOWN AND CRY WHEN THINGS AREN'T
• 43:51
  GOING YOUR WAY. YOU KNOW, AND I WAS LIKE, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES I
• 43:57
  READ THAT AND YOU'RE LIKE, OH MAN, GOD, I'VE GOTTA GROW.
• 43:59
  BECAUSE THERE'S TIMES, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE FACING SOMETHING AND OR
• 44:03
  YOU GET, YOU KNOW, YOU GET SOME BAD NEWS OR YOU GET A BILL IN
• 44:07
  THE MAIL YOU WEREN'T EXPECTING. AND SO THEN, YOU KNOW, WE'RE
• 44:10
  JUST LIKE, OH GOD, IT'S JUST SO BAD AND I CAN'T. AND WE JUST
• 44:14
  THINK ABOUT ALL OF THE NEGATIVE THINGS. BUT THIS SAYS, IF WE
• 44:18
  FAINT IN THE DAY OF ADVERSITY, OUR STRENGTH IS SMALL. AND I WAS
• 44:20
  LIKE, GOD, I DON'T WANNA BE, I DON'T WANNA BE A PERSON OF SMALL
• 44:23
  STRENGTH. I WANNA BE A PERSON THAT IS STRONG IN YOU AND IN THE
• 44:27
  POWER OF YOUR MIGHT. JUST LIKE WHAT GOD TOLD JOSHUA, THAT HE
• 44:32
  WOULD BE STRONG IF HE WOULD JUST MEDITATE IN THE WORD OF GOD DAY
• 44:35
  AND NIGHT. AND I SAID, GOD, I DON'T WANNA BE THAT WAY. SO, I
• 44:40
  SAID LAST WEEK, JUST LIKE IN THE OTHER VERSE THAT WE READ LAST
• 44:47
  WEEK, WHERE IT SAYS, "IF A LAZY MAN DOESN'T PLOW BECAUSE OF THE
• 44:50
  COLD, "HE DOESN'T RECEIVE A HARVEST. "NEITHER DOES THE
• 44:52
  PERSON THAT FAINTS." IF YOU'RE OUT THERE PLOWING AND IT SEEMS
• 44:56
  HARD IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR PLOWING, THEN, AND YOU FAINT,
• 45:00
  GUESS WHAT? YOU'RE NOT GONNA REAP THE HARVEST THAT YOU WERE
• 45:07
  PROMISED. AND I THINK A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY THOSE
• 45:14
  OF US THAT REALLY WALK THIS WALK OF FAITH, IN OTHER WORDS, WE
• 45:18
  BELIEVE THAT GOD IS A GOD THAT HEALS TODAY, HE'S A GOD THAT
• 45:22
  DELIVERS TODAY, IT DIDN'T PASS AWAY, WE BELIEVE THAT IN SIGNS
• 45:26
  AND WONDERS AND MIRACLES IN THIS DAY, THAT WE SOMEHOW THINK THAT
• 45:32
  STORMS ARE NOT GONNA COME. THAT WE NEVER THINK THAT OUR FAITH
• 45:38
  WOULD BE CHALLENGED BECAUSE I'M A FAITH PERSON, SO IT'S ALL
• 45:41
  GONNA BE CHERRIES AND ROSES AND HEARTS AND RAINBOWS IN OUR LIFE,
• 45:47
  AND WE'RE JUST GONNA WALK THIS BEAUTIFUL LIFE AND NOTHING EVER
• 45:51
  BAD IS EVER GONNA COME, OR THAT FAILURES AND MISTAKES AREN'T
• 45:58
  GONNA COME, BECAUSE THAT'S THE OTHER THING. YOU KNOW, UNTIL WE
• 46:02
  CROSS OVER INTO HEAVEN, DO YOU REALIZE THAT WE ARE ALL A WORK
• 46:06
  IN PROGRESS? WE'RE ALL STILL LEARNING AND GROWING. GOD IS
• 46:10
  STILL BUILDING US LINE UPON LINE, PRECEPT UPON PRECEPT.
• 46:14
  THERE IS NO POINT THAT WE'VE EVER ARRIVED UNTIL WE HIT
• 46:17
  HEAVEN, AND THEN WE'VE ARRIVED IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD, AND
• 46:20
  THEN, YOU KNOW, HE CAN MAKE ALL OF THAT PERFECT. THANK GOD FOR
• 46:24
  THAT. AND, YOU KNOW, AND SO SOMETIMES WE ACT LIKE, WE CAN'T
• 46:30
  ACT LIKE THAT WE HAVE SOME UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT'S
• 46:33
  DIFFERENT THAN ANYBODY ELSE'S. AND, YOU KNOW, WHAT DID JESUS DO
• 46:38
  WHEN THE STORMS CAME TO HIM WHEN HE WAS IN THE BOAT? HE COMMANDED
• 46:41
  THE STORMS. SO IF WE'RE NOT COMMANDING THE STORMS OF OUR
• 46:45
  LIFE, IF WE'RE NOT SPEAKING TO THE STORMS OF OUR LIFE, THEN
• 46:49
  WE'RE NOT GONNA RECEIVE THE HARVEST. YOU KNOW, A FARMER
• 46:53
  CAN'T JUST LAY DOWN AND NOT REBUILD HIS FARM IF A STORM
• 46:56
  COMES. THEY GOTTA GO OUT AND CHECK THE CROPS AND MAKE SURE
• 47:01
  THAT EVERYTHING'S OKAY SO THAT EVERYTHING CAN KEEP GROWING.
• 47:06
  THEY GOTTA REBUILD THE BARNS BECAUSE EVEN IF THE CROPS
• 47:09
  WEREN'T HURT, BUT YOUR BARN'S GOT KNOCKED DOWN, THEY HAVE TO
• 47:11
  HAVE A PLACE TO RECEIVE THE HARVEST. SO IN THE STORMS OF
• 47:17
  LIFE, AND STORMS ARE GONNA HAPPEN. IT'S NOT A MATTER OF IF
• 47:23
  THEY COME, IT IS WHEN THEY COME. STORMS ARE GONNA HAPPEN, AND
• 47:26
  THAT'S NOT A BAD CONFESSION. IT'S JUST THAT AT SOME POINT,
• 47:29
  YOUR FAITH IS GONNA BE TESTED. YOU KNOW, UNFORTUNATELY, WE
• 47:35
  DON'T GET TO LIVE OUR LIFE WITHOUT THE TESTING OF OUR
• 47:37
  FAITH. OTHERWISE, IT WOULDN'T SAY THAT IF YOU FAINT IN THE DAY
• 47:40
  OF ADVERSITY, YOUR STRENGTH IS SMALL. AND SO HARVEST DOESN'T
• 47:45
  COME WHEN WE'RE RULED BY OUR CIRCUMSTANCES OR BY OTHER
• 47:49
  PEOPLE. YOU KNOW, REMEMBER LAST WEEK WE TALKED ABOUT IF PEOPLE
• 47:53
  ARE SAYING THINGS, SHUT UP. JUST SHUT UP. BECAUSE YOUR WORDS
• 47:58
  DON'T GET TO DIRECT MY LIFE. YOUR WORDS DON'T GET TO
• 48:03
  DETERMINE MY VALUE. YOUR WORDS DON'T GET, TO BE HONEST, AND I
• 48:07
  DON'T CARE IF THIS IS A SPOUSE, YOUR WORDS DON'T EVEN, ARE NOT
• 48:11
  EVEN ALLOWED TO GET ME OFFENDED. THAT'S A YOU PROBLEM. THAT'S NOT
• 48:18
  A ME PROBLEM. IF YOUR MOUTH IS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND YOU'RE
• 48:24
  SAYING NASTY THINGS ABOUT ME OR SOMEBODY ELSE, THAT'S A YOU
• 48:27
  PROBLEM. BECAUSE AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, I'M GONNA FORGIVE YOU
• 48:30
  AND GO ON BECAUSE I'VE GOT THINGS TO DO FOR THE KINGDOM AND
• 48:32
  I CAN'T AFFORD THE STRIFE IN MY LIFE, AMEN?
• 48:35
  (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
• 48:37
  AND IF I LET YOUR OPINION SHORT CIRCUIT WHAT I AM CALLED TO DO,
• 48:41
  THAT'S A ME PROBLEM. BECAUSE GOD DIDN'T CALL ME ACCORDING TO
• 48:46
  SOMEBODY ELSE'S OPINION. GOD DIDN'T CALL YOU ACCORDING TO
• 48:49
  SOMEBODY ELSE'S OPINION AND HE DIDN'T CALL YOU TO BE SOMEBODY
• 48:53
  ELSE. HE CALLED YOU TO BE YOU. I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE FACT
• 49:00
  THAT I CANNOT PROPHESY LIKE PASTOR HANK. I'VE GOT ZERO
• 49:03
  PROBLEM WITH IT. I'M LIKE, YOU GO ON, I'LL PRAY, YOU GO, YOU
• 49:08
  PROPHESY. THAT'S HIS CALL. I DON'T CARE IF I CAN'T PREACH
• 49:13
  LIKE BROTHER COPELAND, OR ANDREW WOMACK, OR ANY OF THE, YOU KNOW,
• 49:18
  OF SOME GREAT MEN OF GOD. I'M CALLED TO BE WHO GOD CALLED ME
• 49:23
  TO BE. SO I DON'T HAVE TO STAND IN SOMEBODY ELSE'S OFFICE TO
• 49:28
  FEEL GOOD ABOUT MYSELF, YOU KNOW, BUT OBEDIENCE, MY
• 49:31
  OBEDIENCE IS GONNA PRODUCE A HARVEST IN MY LIFE, AMEN? YOUR
• 49:36
  OBEDIENCE IS GONNA PRODUCE A HARVEST IN YOUR LIFE. AND YOU
• 49:39
  KNOW, AND HERE'S THE OTHER THING, I HATE TO SAY THIS, BUT
• 49:45
  YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A GENERATION OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE ALLOWED
• 49:54
  THEIR EMOTIONS TO RULE THEM. THEY ALLOW THEIR EMOTIONS TO
• 50:00
  MAKE THEIR DECISIONS AND THEY WONDER WHY THEY AREN'T BLESSED.
• 50:04
  BECAUSE WE SPEND TIME AFTER TIME, AND YOU KNOW, LISTEN,
• 50:08
  THERE ARE THINGS THAT WE MIGHT NOT KNOW ON THIS SIDE OF
• 50:10
  ETERNITY, BUT WHETHER WE UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED IN
• 50:14
  SOMEBODY ELSE'S LIFE, WHICH I'VE ALWAYS SAID, WHAT'S HAPPENED IN
• 50:17
  SOMEBODY ELSE'S LIFE IS NONE OF MY BUSINESS. MY BIBLE DOESN'T
• 50:21
  READ AFTER OTHER PEOPLE'S EXAMPLES, IT READS AFTER WHAT
• 50:25
  GOD SAID, AND I HAVE TO HAVE THE REVELATION OF WHAT GOD SAID
• 50:28
  LIVING IN MY HEART SO THAT IT'S PRODUCING FRUIT IN MY LIFE. AND
• 50:35
  SO WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT LET EMOTIONS COME AND JUST WREAK
• 50:42
  HAVOC ALL OVER WHAT THEY'RE DOING. PEOPLE ARE MAKING
• 50:48
  EMOTIONAL DECISIONS, THEY DON'T CONSULT GOD, AND THEN THEY
• 50:52
  WONDER WHY THEY DON'T GET THE ANSWER. WE CAN SHORT CIRCUIT OUR
• 51:04
  DESTINY BY ALLOWING OUR EMOTIONS TO BE OUR GUIDE. BECAUSE YOU
• 51:09
  KNOW WHAT YOUR EMOTIONS WILL NEVER DO? THEY WILL NEVER BE AN
• 51:12
  ANCHOR. BECAUSE OUR EMOTIONS ARE TOSSED ALL OVER THE PLACE. YOU
• 51:20
  KNOW? DIDN'T GET ENOUGH SLEEP. WELL, I'M IN A BAD MOOD, SO MY
• 51:24
  EMOTIONS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE. YOU KNOW, MY SPOUSE SAID, YOU
• 51:30
  KNOW, THEY SAID SOMETHING ICKY TO ME, SO NOW MY EMOTIONS ARE
• 51:32
  ALL OVER THE PLACE. OR WHATEVER, WHATEVER GUIDES YOU. AND SO, YOU
• 51:40
  WILL LOSE YOUR HARVEST IF YOU MAKE CHOICES AFTER EMOTIONAL
• 51:45
  REASONS. IF YOU SAY, I CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE, YOUR STRENGTH IS
• 51:49
  SMALL. AND I DON'T MEAN FOR THAT TO BE HARD. LIKE, I WANT TO HELP
• 51:53
  MY OWN SELF. AND HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE EVER FELT LIKE YOU'VE BEEN
• 51:57
  AT A PLACE WHERE YOU'RE LIKE, OKAY, GOD, I CAN'T DO THIS
• 52:00
  ANYMORE. AND YOU KNOW, WHEN WE GET TO THAT PLACE AND WE SAY WE
• 52:10
  CAN'T, USUALLY THAT IS BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T INQUIRED OF THE LORD.
• 52:16
  SO TURN IN YOUR BIBLE, WELL, FIRST LET'S GO TO LUKE CHAPTER
• 52:18
  21, VERSE 19. AND THIS IS WHAT JESUS SAID. SO IF YOU GO BACK
• 52:24
  AND READ THIS CHAPTER, JESUS IS TALKING ABOUT ALL OF THE
• 52:27
  TERRIBLE THINGS THAT ARE GONNA COME. BUT HE SAID IN THERE, HE
• 52:32
  SAID, "IN YOUR PATIENCE, POSSESS YOU YOUR SOUL." NOW WHAT DOES
• 52:39
  THAT MEAN? SO I WENT UP AND LOOKED UP WHAT THE GREEK WORD
• 52:42
  MEANS FOR SOUL THERE, AND IT SAYS, "THE SEED OF FEELINGS,
• 52:46
  DESIRES, AFFECTIONS, OR AVERSIONS." SO LET THAT SINK IN
• 52:51
  FOR A MINUTE. YOUR SOUL IS THE SEED OF YOUR FEELINGS, YOUR
• 52:55
  DESIRES, YOUR AFFECTIONS, OR THINGS YOU DON'T LIKE. SO HOW WE
• 53:03
  TAKE HOLD, SO WHAT DO WE DO WHEN OUR EMOTIONS ARE ALL OVER THE
• 53:06
  MAP? FIRST OF ALL, WE HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE. JUST BECAUSE WE
• 53:12
  GET, LISTEN, YOU WILL NOT HAVE A MARRIAGE IF YOU GET MAD AT YOUR
• 53:15
  SPOUSE AND WALK OUT THE DOOR BECAUSE OF YOUR EMOTIONS. YOU
• 53:19
  DON'T BRING IT BACK INTO CHECK, IT'S GONNA MESS IT UP. SO, AND
• 53:30
  WHAT DO WE DO WHEN SOMETIMES MAYBE IT'S NOT JUST THE EMOTION
• 53:33
  OF ANGER OR FRUSTRATION, BUT WHAT DO WE DO IF IT'S THE
• 53:36
  EMOTION OF FEAR? TURN OVER TO CHRONICLES, 2 CHRONICLES, EXCUSE
• 53:42
  ME, CHAPTER 20, VERSE THREE. AND MOST OF YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS
• 53:46
  STORY. AND IT SAYS IN JEHOSHAPHAT, SO THE ARMY, THEY
• 53:49
  SEE THE GREAT ARMY COMING AT THEM. AND IT SAYS IN JEHOSHAPHAT
• 53:54
  FEARED. NOW, BUT WHAT DID HE DO? SEE, HERE'S THE THING, IT'S NOT
• 53:57
  THAT FEAR WON'T COME. SOMETIMES IT'S NOT THAT ANGER WON'T COME.
• 54:02
  SOMETIMES IT'S NOT THAT THE EMOTIONS AREN'T GONNA COME AND
• 54:05
  TRY TO ATTACK YOU. BUT WHAT DID JEHOSHAPHAT DO? HE SAID, AND HE
• 54:09
  SET HIMSELF TO SEEK THE LORD. AND HE PROCLAIMED A FAST
• 54:12
  THROUGHOUT ALL OF JUDAH. SO HE SET HIS FACE TO SEEK THE LORD.
• 54:17
  SO THEN, BECAUSE HE SET HIS FACE TO SEEK THE LORD, THEN HE WAS
• 54:22
  GIVEN WISDOM ON HOW TO GO OUT AND DEAL WITH THE ARMY. AND
• 54:26
  GUESS WHAT? BECAUSE JEHOSHAPHAT SOUGHT THE LORD, HE DIDN'T HAVE
• 54:29
  TO FIGHT THE BATTLE. THE LORD WENT BEFORE THEM. AND HE FOUGHT
• 54:34
  FOR THEM. AND SEE, WE WANT HARVEST, BUT WE HAVE GOT TO
• 54:39
  LEARN TO SOMETIMES DIG A LITTLE BIT DEEPER. WE LIVE IN A CULTURE
• 54:43
  RIGHT NOW THAT WANTS US TO LIVE IN A PLACE OF FEELINGS. YOU
• 54:51
  DIDN'T RESPECT MY PRONOUNS. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. I SAID THIS A
• 54:56
  FEW, YOU TRIGGERED ME BY YOUR WORDS. AND I, OOH, THAT ONE JUST
• 55:00
  MAKES ME SO MAD. I'M LIKE, OH, YOU'RE TRIGGERED? I DON'T ALLOW
• 55:05
  MY KIDS TO BE TRIGGERED. IF MOM AND DAD MADE YOU MAD, GUESS
• 55:09
  WHAT? BUCK UP, BUTTERCUP. YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO LEARN HOW TO BE
• 55:13
  RESPECTFUL AND DEAL WITH US THE WAY THAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO,
• 55:18
  WHETHER YOU LIKED WHAT WE DID OR WE DIDN'T DO. AND SOMETIMES MOM
• 55:22
  AND DAD ARE WRONG, BUT THAT STILL DOESN'T GIVE THEM THE
• 55:24
  RIGHT TO DISRESPECT US. SO, WHAT, AND NOW, AND THEN, OKAY,
• 55:30
  LET'S TALK ABOUT WHO WAS THE ULTIMATE GIANT SLAYER IN THE
• 55:34
  BIBLE? KING DAVID. BEFORE HE BECAME KING, YOU KNOW, HE'S
• 55:42
  RUNNING AROUND IN THE WILDERNESS BEING CHASED BY SAUL, 'CAUSE
• 55:45
  SAUL WAS JEALOUS, AND YOU KNOW, HE HAD SLAYED THE GIANT, AND
• 55:49
  THAT'S THE OTHER THING. SO EVEN IF YOU RECEIVE HARVEST AFTER
• 55:52
  HARVEST, YOU KNOW AGAIN, HE'S FACED THE GIANT. HE DID
• 55:59
  EVERYTHING THE KING HAD ASKED HIM AND NOW HE'S BEING, YOU
• 56:02
  KNOW, HE WAS CHASED OUT OF THE CASTLE, MISTREATED. AND THAT'S
• 56:06
  THE OTHER THING, SEE, THAT'S THE THING THAT THIS CULTURE DOESN'T
• 56:09
  GET. AND THEY WONDER WHY SOMETIMES GOD IS FAR OFF IN
• 56:13
  THEIR PRAYERS BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE A HEART OF HONOR. 'CAUSE
• 56:18
  DAVID HONORED SAUL WHEN SAUL WAS A BOOGER. HE WAS AN EVIL MAN.
• 56:26
  AND DAVID CHOSE TO KEEP HONOR IN HIS HEART. AND SEE, SOMETIMES,
• 56:30
  SEE, THAT'S WHERE PEOPLE GET SO MESSED UP. THEY'RE LIKE, I WAS
• 56:33
  MISTREATED, I WAS, MM-MM-MM-MM-MM. AND YOU KNOW
• 56:38
  WHAT, SOMETIMES YOU ARE GONNA BE MISTREATED. IT'S A PART OF, I
• 56:42
  LIKE WHAT EDDIE CALLS IT, IT'S CALLED PEOPLING. AND SO NOW I'VE
• 56:46
  ADOPTED THAT. SOMETIMES YOU GET ENOUGH OF PEOPLING AND PEOPLE
• 56:51
  MAKE YOU MAD. AND LISTEN, I WENT OUT AND I LOOKED ONLINE LAST
• 56:57
  NIGHT AT SOME OF THE COMMENTS FOR JONATHAN AND I HAD TO TURN
• 56:59
  THEM OFF 'CAUSE I'M LIKE, THAT'S MY NEPHEW. I'M GONNA COME OUT
• 57:04
  SWINGING. AND YOU KNOW, BUT AGAIN, PEOPLE SAY NASTY THINGS,
• 57:10
  BUT THAT'S WHY WE DON'T LET THEIR OPINIONS HURT OUR HEARTS.
• 57:14
  BUT WHAT DID DAVID DO? SO LET'S GO OVER TO 1 SAMUEL 30, VERSE
• 57:19
  SIX. AND YOU KNOW, DAVID'S JUST TRYING TO HONOR GOD, AND HE'S
• 57:28
  BEING CHASED. AND BY THE WAY, DAVID WAS BEING CHASED FOR A
• 57:32
  CALL HE DIDN'T ASK FOR. HE DIDN'T ASK TO BE KING. SO
• 57:38
  SOMETIMES IF YOU'RE BEING PERSECUTED BECAUSE OF THE CALL
• 57:41
  THAT YOU DIDN'T ASK FOR, AGAIN, BUCK UP, BUTTERCUP. GOD CALLED
• 57:46
  YOU BECAUSE HE SAW SOMETHING IN YOU. OKAY, SO 1 SAMUEL 30, VERSE
• 57:50
  SIX, NOW THIS IS A HORRIFIC ATTACK. SO WHEN THEY RETURNED TO
• 57:54
  ZIKLAG, THE PHILISTINES HAD COME IN AND THEY HAD TAKEN THEIR
• 57:58
  WIVES AND THEIR CHILDREN AND THEY BURNED DOWN THEIR TOWN. AND
• 58:02
  HOW MANY OF YOU KNOW THAT, LISTEN, WE'RE HUMAN BEINGS. IF
• 58:05
  YOUR CHILDREN GET KIDNAPPED BY EVIL PEOPLE, HOW MANY OF YOU
• 58:09
  KNOW THAT WE'RE LIKELY TO BE A LITTLE BIT UPSET? THAT'S
• 58:13
  NATURAL. IT'S NOT THAT YOU CAN'T HAVE FEELINGS. YOU'VE GOT TO
• 58:20
  REIGN THOSE FEELINGS IN. AND THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT
• 58:24
  GOD HAS BEEN GIVING ME THE GREATEST REVELATION ON BECAUSE I
• 58:27
  ASKED THE LORD, AND WE'LL GET TO THAT SCRIPTURE IN A MINUTE. I'M
• 58:29
  LIKE, GOD, SOMETIMES WHY AREN'T WE SEEING THE SIGNS AND THE
• 58:32
  WONDERS THAT WE USED TO SEE WHEN THE HEALING REVIVALS WERE
• 58:36
  BREAKING OUT, THE MIRACLES WHEN AZUSA STREET WAS HAPPENING? AND
• 58:39
  AGAIN, THERE IS A DIFFERENT DISPENSATION. GOD DOESN'T STAY
• 58:42
  IN THE OLD. WE LIKE TO SAY, OKAY, THIS HAPPENED, SO WE'RE
• 58:47
  GONNA BUILD AN ALTAR RIGHT HERE, AND WE'RE NOT MOVING OFF OF
• 58:49
  THERE. AND GOD IS ALWAYS A GOD OF PROGRESS, AND HE DOES THINGS,
• 58:53
  LISTEN, HE HAS A RELATIONSHIP WITH EVERY SINGLE GENERATION AND
• 58:58
  IT'S NOT GONNA BE THE SAME WAY. THAT'S NOT WHO HE IS. GOD IS
• 59:03
  SUCH A GOD OF FULLNESS AND EXPRESSION AND CREATIVITY AND HE
• 59:08
  WANTS EVERY GENERATION NOT TO SEEK AFTER HIM AFTER SOME
• 59:13
  FORMULA, BUT AGAIN, HE SAID, I WANT THEIR LAWS WRITTEN ON MY
• 59:18
  HEART. SO DAVID GOES, HE'S UPSET, AND HIS MEN WERE UPSET
• 59:26
  WITH HIM. SOMETIMES IT STINKS TO BE THE LEADER, JUST SAYING.
• 59:31
  THAT'S AGAIN, EVERYBODY LIKES TO, WE HAVE ALL THE LITTLE
• 59:35
  INTERNET SLEUTHS OUT THERE NOW, THEY WANNA HAVE AN OPINION ON
• 59:38
  EVERYBODY THAT'S CALLED OF GOD, AND IF THEY'RE THIS, THAT, OR
• 59:41
  THE OTHER, AND I'M LIKE, YOU BETTER WATCH IT FIRST OF ALL
• 59:43
  'CAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS, YOU KNOW, TOUCH NOT MINE ANOINTED. AND IF
• 59:47
  THEY'RE NOT ANOINTED, THEN YOU KNOW, IT'S STILL JESUS'S CHURCH.
• 59:50
  SO IF HE DIDN'T APPOINT, ANYWAY. SO I DIGRESS, BUT SOMETIMES
• 59:55
  PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT LEADERS GO THROUGH. AND
• 59:58
  SOMETIMES THE LEADER, WHEN THEY'RE JUST DOING THEIR BEST TO
• 1:00:01
  LEAD AND THEN SOMETHING HAPPENS AND THEN EVERYBODY'S MAD AT
• 1:00:03
  THEM. 'CAUSE YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES YOU'RE LEADING AND THERE'S A
• 1:00:08
  WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE THAT AREN'T WALKING SPIRITUAL. ANYWAY, THAT
• 1:00:12
  WAS A SIDE NOTE. LET'S GO BACK TO OUR SCRIPTURE. AND IT SAYS,
• 1:00:16
  "AND DAVID WAS GREATLY DISTRESSED." IN OTHER WORDS, HE
• 1:00:20
  WASN'T JUST A LITTLE BIT SAD, HE WAS UNDER DURESS. BECAUSE NOT
• 1:00:25
  ONLY WAS IT HIS FAMILY, IT WAS THE FAMILY OF THOSE THAT WERE
• 1:00:31
  FOLLOWING AFTER HIM. AND THAT'S, HOW MANY OF YOU KNOW, THAT'S A
• 1:00:34
  GREAT RESPONSIBILITY? AND HE SAID, "FOR THE PEOPLE SPOKE OF
• 1:00:39
  STONING HIM BECAUSE ALL OF THE SOUL OF THE PEOPLE WAS GRIEVED."
• 1:00:44
  SO IN OTHER WORDS, EVERYBODY IS ALL UP IN THEIR FEELS RIGHT NOW
• 1:00:47
  BECAUSE THEIR HEARTS WERE WOUNDED. AND THEY DON'T KNOW IF
• 1:00:55
  THEIR FAMILY IS ALIVE OR DEAD. THEY DIDN'T KNOW. AND IT SAYS,
• 1:01:00
  "EVERY MAN FOR HIS SON AND FOR HIS DAUGHTERS. "BUT DAVID
• 1:01:04
  ENCOURAGED HIMSELF IN THE LORD HIS GOD." AND THEN WE KNOW WHAT
• 1:01:08
  HAPPENED. HE SAID HE ARMED HIMSELF AND HE WENT BACK AND HE
• 1:01:11
  RECOVERED ALL. BUT SEE, TOO MANY TIMES WE DON'T GET TO THE
• 1:01:15
  HARVEST BECAUSE WE GET CAUGHT UP IN THE ATTACK. AND WE SIT DOWN
• 1:01:21
  IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ATTACK AND OUR STRENGTH BECOMES SMALL. NOW,
• 1:01:26
  I GOTTA TELL YOU A STORY. SEE, THIS IS ANOTHER THING. SO,
• 1:01:28
  PASTOR BRENDA HAD SENT ME THIS VIDEO OF ANDREW WOMACK
• 1:01:34
  PREACHING, AND THAT'S JUST BEEN KINDA LIVING IN MY HEART FOR A
• 1:01:39
  WHILE, BECAUSE AGAIN, IT'S THOSE THINGS OF GOD I'VE GOTTA GROW.
• 1:01:42
  SO, THERE WAS ONE NIGHT, ANDREW AND HIS WIFE, THEY WERE IN BED
• 1:01:47
  ASLEEP, AND THEY GOT A CALL THAT HIS SON HAD BEEN IN A HORRIFIC
• 1:01:51
  CAR ACCIDENT, AND HIS SON WAS DEAD. AND THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO
• 1:01:55
  GO TO THE HOSPITAL AND BASICALLY IDENTIFY THE BODY. AND SO HE
• 1:02:00
  SAID, "WE GOT UP, WE GOT DRESSED, "WE GOT IN THE CAR."
• 1:02:05
  AND I WAS, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN IMAGINE BEING A
• 1:02:11
  PARENT WHAT HE'S GOING THROUGH. AND HE'S LIKE, "NO, I'M GONNA
• 1:02:16
  PRAISE THE LORD." AND HE STARTED PRAISING. HE SAID, "I REMEMBER
• 1:02:20
  EVERYTHING, GOD, "YOU SAID ABOUT HIS CALLING, "WHAT'S BEEN
• 1:02:23
  PROPHESIED OVER HIM." AND HE STARTED PRAISING, HE GOES, AND
• 1:02:27
  WHEN I STARTED PRAISING, HE GOES, "I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE IT. "I
• 1:02:31
  DIDN'T FEEL LIKE IT AT ALL." AND THEN HE SAID, "SOMEWHERE ALONG
• 1:02:35
  THE WAY, "IT DIDN'T MATTER WHAT I FELT LIKE, "PRAISE WAS COMING
• 1:02:40
  UP OUT OF MY HEART." BECAUSE AGAIN, WHAT DID HE DO? HE
• 1:02:44
  POSSESSED HIS SOUL. HE DIDN'T LET HIS EMOTIONS RULE THE DAY.
• 1:02:52
  SO HE SAID, "BY THE TIME WE GOT INTO THE HOSPITAL, "THE PRAISE
• 1:02:57
  AND THE WORSHIP OF ALMIGHTY GOD WAS ON MY LIPS." HE SAID, "WE
• 1:03:01
  WALKED BACK." HE GOES, "THEY DIDN'T TAKE US TO A ROOM. "THEY
• 1:03:03
  TOOK US BACK TO THE MORGUE." HE WALKED IN AND THERE WAS A TOW
• 1:03:06
  TAG ON HIS SON'S TOE. HE WALKED INTO THE MORGUE WITH HIS WIFE.
• 1:03:11
  HIS SON IMMEDIATELY SAT UP AND BEGAN TALKING TO HIM.
• 1:03:21
  SEE, I'M SAYING WE'VE GOTTA GROW IN OUR APPROACH. BECAUSE GOD
• 1:03:32
  ISN'T FAITHFUL JUST TO ANDREW WOMMACK. YOU KNOW, GOD WAS
• 1:03:36
  FAITHFUL TO DAVID BECAUSE DAVID SPENT TIME IN THE WILDERNESS AND
• 1:03:41
  HE SAW GOD DO SOMETHING AND HE DIDN'T JUST STOP WITH THE LION.
• 1:03:44
  HE MOVED ON TO THE BEAR. AND BY THE TIME HE GOT TO GOLIATH, HE'S
• 1:03:48
  LIKE, "I DON'T SEE ANY DIFFERENCE "BETWEEN YOU AND THE
• 1:03:51
  LION OR THE BEAR. "AND WHO ART THOU, THOU UNCIRCUMCISED
• 1:03:56
  PHILISTINE, "THAT YOU WOULD STAND AGAINST THE ARMIES OF THE
• 1:03:58
  LIVING GOD?" SEE, WHEN WE GET A REVELATION AND WE TAKE OUR
• 1:04:02
  EMOTION OUT OF IT, SOMETHING HAPPENS BECAUSE IT STIRS UP OUR
• 1:04:10
  FAITH. DON'T LET THE DEVIL SHORT CIRCUIT YOUR HARVEST BECAUSE HE
• 1:04:14
  CAME IN AND TRIED TO ATTACK.
• 1:04:17
  (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
• 1:04:21
  AND YOU KNOW, SO THAT ONE, I JUST BEEN, I DON'T KNOW, I HEARD
• 1:04:23
  THAT STORY AND I WAS LIKE, OH MAN, LORD, YOU KNOW, THERE'S
• 1:04:26
  JUST TIMES THAT I WANNA SIT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF MY, AND THAT
• 1:04:31
  DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE JUST GO AROUND AND WE'RE MACHINES AND WE
• 1:04:34
  DON'T FEEL NOTHING. WE DO. THE BIBLE SAYS THAT JESUS WAS
• 1:04:40
  TEMPTED IN ALL MANNER LIKE AS WE ARE. HE HAD REAL EMOTIONS LIKE
• 1:04:43
  REAL MEN, REAL PEOPLE. SO BEFORE WE MAKE A DECISION, WE NEED TO
• 1:04:56
  GET A HOLD OF OUR EMOTIONS. BECAUSE AGAIN, THIS GENERATION
• 1:05:00
  WANTS EVERYBODY, LIKE I SAID BEFORE, TO MAKE A DECISION
• 1:05:02
  ABOUT, YOU KNOW, I'M GONNA DO, I AM WHAT I FEEL LIKE I AM. AND
• 1:05:10
  PEOPLE ARE MAKING GRAVE MISTAKES CONCERNING THEIR BODIES OUT OF A
• 1:05:14
  FEELING. 'CAUSE NOBODY'S ABLE TO STAND UP AND TELL THEM THE
• 1:05:18
  TRUTH. AND SOMETIMES PEOPLE DON'T WANNA STAND UP AND TELL
• 1:05:19
  THEM THE TRUTH BECAUSE THEY'RE MORE AFRAID OF THEMSELVES BEING
• 1:05:24
  ACCUSED OR LOOKING BAD. AND SEE, THAT'S THE OTHER THING. WE HAVE
• 1:05:26
  GOT TO GET SO FAR OFF OF OUR PERCEIVED IDENTITY AND IF WE'RE
• 1:05:31
  GONNA LOOK STUPID. COME ON. YOU GOT IT. SO THAT WE CAN STEP INTO
• 1:05:38
  WHAT GOD HAS CALLED US TO BE AS THE BODY OF CHRIST. YOU KNOW,
• 1:05:42
  AND I DETERMINED ON THAT STAGE A LONG TIME AGO, 'CAUSE THERE'S
• 1:05:45
  TIME, I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE, AND I LAUGH AT IT, I DON'T CARE. I
• 1:05:48
  KNOW I'M ANOINTED TO LEAD WORSHIP, SOMETIMES I DON'T KNOW
• 1:05:50
  WHY GOD CALLED ME TO LEAD WORSHIP, I HAVE NO CLUE, BUT YOU
• 1:05:54
  KNOW, I GET OUT THERE, I GET THE TIMING WRONG, AND EDDIE'S LIKE
• 1:05:56
  TRYING TO FIX ME, BRANDON'S PHRASE LIKE ONE, TWO, THREE, YOU
• 1:06:00
  KNOW, HE'S RIGHT THERE IN MY EAR. SEE, WE HAVE THOSE IN EARS
• 1:06:02
  SO THEY CAN SAY, "HEY, YOU'RE OFF." AND, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
• 1:06:08
  I'M NOT EVEN EMBARRASSED BY THAT. I DON'T CARE. I DON'T.
• 1:06:14
  BECAUSE MY WORSHIP HAS GOTTA BE FOR AN AUDIENCE OF ONE. WHICH
• 1:06:19
  DIDN'T INCLUDE ANY OF YOU, NO OFFENSE. AND SO I GOT OVER THAT
• 1:06:25
  REAL QUICK. AND I KNOW SOMETHING HAPPENS WHEN I GET INTO THAT
• 1:06:28
  SPACE. AND THAT'S NOT ME. LIKE I CAN'T SIT THERE AND GO, I'M SO
• 1:06:32
  GOOD AT IT. I'M NOT. I'M LIKE ONE TIME, I'M LIKE, GOD, WHY DID
• 1:06:36
  YOU, I STINK AT THIS, WHY DID YOU CALL ME TO THIS? WELL,
• 1:06:42
  LISTEN, IF YOU NEVER FEEL LIKE YOU STINK AT SOMETHING, THEN YOU
• 1:06:45
  MIGHT NEED TO GROW A LITTLE BIT AT IT. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE ALL
• 1:06:48
  THAT AND A BAG OF CHIPS AND YOU'RE GOOD. MATTER OF FACT, I
• 1:06:51
  HAD, AND AGAIN, THERE'S NO HARM HERE, IT'S ALL LOVE. I HAD ONE
• 1:06:54
  PERSON THAT WAS ON OUR WORSHIP TEAM, AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE
• 1:06:57
  FORBEARANCE OF EDDIE AND BRANDON AND JUDY, THEY'RE JUST LIKE,
• 1:07:02
  "OH, YOU KNOW, WHATEVER. "WE'LL GET THERE." AND THEY SAID, WITH
• 1:07:07
  MY TIMING, MY ISSUES, AND THEY'RE LIKE, "WELL, I'M
• 1:07:11
  QUALIFIED LIKE THIS, "AND I JUST," AND YOU BLAH, BLAH, BLAH.
• 1:07:15
  AND I WALKED, AND THAT MESSED WITH ME. OKAY, AGAIN, YOU GOTTA
• 1:07:17
  LEARN NOT TO LET PEOPLE DETERMINE YOUR DESTINY, AND I
• 1:07:21
  WANTED TO QUIT, 'CAUSE THEY QUIT, THEY TOLD ME THAT MY
• 1:07:26
  TIMING SUCKED, THEIR TIMING WAS PERFECT, WHICH I CAME TO FIND
• 1:07:31
  OUT LATER THAT IT WASN'T AS PERFECT AS WHAT I THOUGHT IT
• 1:07:33
  WAS, BECAUSE THEN I HAD AN AMAZING DRUMMER, AN AMAZING MD,
• 1:07:41
  AND I WAS LIKE, OH MAN, THEY CAN PLAY SOME OF THOSE WEIRD THINGS
• 1:07:46
  THAT I COME UP WITH. AND AGAIN, I'M NOT THROWING THAT PERSON
• 1:07:52
  UNDER THE BUS. I BELIEVE THEY GOT IT RIGHT. BUT AGAIN, THE
• 1:07:55
  DEVIL USED THEM TO GET IN MY HEAD AND I WANTED TO QUIT. AND
• 1:07:58
  YOU REMEMBER, HONEY, I WAS LIKE, THAT'S IT. I THREW THE COVERS
• 1:08:00
  OVER MY HEAD AND SAID, I'M DONE DOING THIS, I'LL SERVE THE LORD,
• 1:08:03
  BUT I AM NOT DOING PRAISE AND WORSHIP ANYMORE. SEND SOMEBODY
• 1:08:07
  ELSE. YOU GO, HONEY, YOU'RE ANOINTED. THANK GOD FOR A GOOD
• 1:08:13
  HUSBAND. IT'S LIKE, NO, YOU DON'T GET TO LIVE IN YOUR
• 1:08:16
  EMOTION. AND, YOU KNOW, AND I DON'T MEAN THIS, AND AGAIN, I'M
• 1:08:25
  NOT TALKING SMACK, BUT YOU KNOW THAT PERSON ISN'T DOING A LOT IN
• 1:08:28
  PRAISE AND WORSHIP TODAY. AND I'M NOT SITTING THERE, I'M NOT
• 1:08:32
  WISHING THAT ON THEM. BUT AGAIN, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES IT COMES
• 1:08:38
  DOWN TO THE THINGS THAT WE CHOOSE TO DO. SO DON'T LET YOUR
• 1:08:43
  EMOTIONS KEEP YOU OUT OF STUFF. AND THEN, AND HERE'S THE OTHER
• 1:08:50
  REASON WHY, AND I'M TALKING A LOT ABOUT EMOTIONS BECAUSE I
• 1:08:54
  REALIZE HOW MUCH THEY AFFECT OUR FAITH. YOU KNOW, AND WHEN I'M
• 1:08:59
  THINKING ABOUT THAT ANDREW WOMACK STORY, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU
• 1:09:01
  WAKE UP AND YOU'RE TIRED, SOMETIMES THAT IS THE WORST TIME
• 1:09:05
  TO TRY TO BE IN FAITH WHEN YOU'RE EXHAUSTED. AND THAT'S WHY
• 1:09:10
  SOMETIMES IT SAYS THAT IT COMES IN NIGHT TERRORS BECAUSE THE
• 1:09:14
  DEVIL KNOWS THAT WHEN WE'RE AT OUR WEAKEST, THAT'S WHERE HE'S
• 1:09:17
  TRYING TO GET US TO FALL DOWN. AND YOU KNOW, AND IF WE DON'T
• 1:09:24
  CONTROL OUR EMOTIONS, GUESS WHAT? IT AFFECTS OUR FAITH AND
• 1:09:28
  IT EVENTUALLY COMES OUT OF OUR MOUTH. AND THAT'S WHY PASTOR
• 1:09:33
  HANK WAS TALKING ABOUT THE BATTLE OF JERICHO, BECAUSE THE
• 1:09:39
  PEOPLE, OR THE GENERATION BEFORE THEM, ALL THEY COULD DO IS
• 1:09:44
  COMPLAIN, GET SCARED. THEY WERE THE MOST FEARFUL PEOPLE. EVERY
• 1:09:49
  TIME THAT THEY SAW PHARAOH'S ARMY AND THEIR HEARTS WERE, THEY
• 1:09:52
  WERE AFRAID. THEY DIDN'T HAVE WATER AND THEY'RE ANGRY. MOSES
• 1:09:57
  GOES UP ON THE MOUNTAIN AND THEY'RE SERVING A DIFFERENT GOD.
• 1:10:00
  THAT'S, SEE, THAT'S WHERE EMOTIONS GET YOU. SO THEY DIDN'T
• 1:10:03
  GET THEIR HARVEST BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T KEEP THEIR MOUTH RIGHT.
• 1:10:06
  THEY COULDN'T KEEP THEIR HEART RIGHT. THEY LET THEIR EMOTIONS
• 1:10:09
  BE THEIR SWAY AND THAT'S WHY, YOU KNOW, WE CAN'T BE THOSE
• 1:10:13
  PEOPLE. AND YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S THE OTHER THING TOO. YOU KNOW,
• 1:10:15
  EMOTIONS, THEY'LL KEEP US IN UNFORGIVENESS AND BITTERNESS AND
• 1:10:19
  THEN IT'S GONNA UPROOT US FROM WALKING INTO OUR HARVEST. AND I
• 1:10:25
  REMEMBER A STORY WHERE MY HUSBAND AND I, WE HIRED THIS
• 1:10:30
  CARPET CLEANER AND WE HIRED THEM 'CAUSE THEY SAID, OH, WE'RE
• 1:10:34
  PRO-MILITARY, WE'RE ALL THIS, AND IT WAS A FLYER AND I DIDN'T
• 1:10:36
  CHECK 'EM OUT. I'M LIKE, OH MY GOSH, I WAS LED WITH MY
• 1:10:39
  EMOTIONS. I DIDN'T STOP TO ASK THE LORD, BY THE WAY. AND WE
• 1:10:43
  HIRED THEM, THEY CAME IN, THEY SAID, OH, WELL, YOU KNOW, PART
• 1:10:45
  OF IT, WE'LL CLEAN YOUR CAR FOR FREE. AND WE HAD A USED MERCEDES
• 1:10:51
  R350 BACK THEN, BASICALLY IT WAS KIND OF MERCEDES VERSION OF THE
• 1:10:54
  VAN. I SOLD A CAR, AND THEY CLEANED THE CARPETS. AND MY
• 1:11:00
  HUSBAND WENT OUT THERE, HE GOES, MAN, THOSE CARPETS ARE PRETTY
• 1:11:02
  WET. AND IT WAS A DRY CLEANING SERVICE, AND IT WAS A VERY WET
• 1:11:05
  DRY CLEANING SERVICE, I'LL JUST SAY THAT. AND HE GOES OUT TO
• 1:11:10
  START THE CAR THE NEXT DAY, AND IT DIDN'T START. AND THEN WE
• 1:11:15
  JUMPED IT, AND THEN THE HORNS ARE GOING OFF, ALL OF THIS
• 1:11:18
  STUFF, AND WE HAD TO TOW IT TO THE DEALER, BECAUSE AT THAT
• 1:11:23
  POINT IT WAS BAD ENOUGH, WE'RE LIKE, WE CAN'T JUST TAKE IT
• 1:11:25
  ANYWHERE, WE GOTTA FIGURE OUT WHAT'S GOING ON. AND THERE WAS
• 1:11:29
  AN INCH OF WATER IN ALL THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. WARRANTY
• 1:11:35
  WOULDN'T COVER THAT, OUR INSURANCE WOULDN'T COVER IT
• 1:11:38
  BECAUSE WE LET THEM DO THE WORK. SO THE INSURANCE COMPANY SAID,
• 1:11:41
  NOPE, SORRY, YOU'RE OUT. THAT WAS A $4,000 BILL AND WE DIDN'T
• 1:11:44
  HAVE IT. AND WE TRIED CALLING THE GUY AND HE'S LIKE, OH NO,
• 1:11:51
  THOSE THINGS CAN HIT. AND HE JUST LIED RIGHT THROUGH HIS
• 1:11:53
  TEETH. I ACTUALLY CALLED DEB ABOUT THAT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU
• 1:11:56
  REMEMBER THIS, DEB. AND SHE LOOKED HIM UP AND SHE GOES, OH
• 1:11:58
  MY GOSH, PASTOR CHRISTY, HE'S GOT SO MANY BUSINESSES. I'M
• 1:12:01
  LIKE, AND HE KEEPS CHANGING THE NAME AND HE HAS ALL OF THESE,
• 1:12:04
  YOU KNOW, AND I WAS LIKE, OOH, THAT WAS A HARD LESSON TO LEARN.
• 1:12:08
  BUT YOU KNOW WHAT WE DID? I WAS MAD AT HIM. MY HUSBAND WAS MAD
• 1:12:14
  AT HIM. MATTER OF FACT, YOU KNOW, WE HAD SOME, HE STARTED
• 1:12:17
  YELLING AT US ON THE PHONE AND I'M NOT PROUD TO SAY WE WENT
• 1:12:20
  RIGHT BACK AT HIM. LISTEN, WE'RE HUMAN BEINGS, WE'RE NOT PERFECT
• 1:12:25
  ALL THE TIME. AND I THINK, HONEY, I THINK YOU EVEN THREW
• 1:12:31
  THE PHONE WHEN WE GOT OFF THE PHONE. WE WERE BIG MAD. AND THEN
• 1:12:38
  WE'RE LIKE, NO, YOU KNOW WHAT? GOD'S GONNA GET THIS. WE ENDED
• 1:12:43
  UP HAVING TO TAKE OUT A LOAN TO COVER THAT AND GO INTO DEBT TO
• 1:12:48
  COVER THAT. AND SO WE WERE LIKE, NO, WE'RE GONNA GET INTO PRAYER.
• 1:12:52
  FIRST OF ALL, GOD, WE FORGIVE THAT MAN. WE'RE NOT GONNA LET,
• 1:12:56
  OUGHT IN OUR HEART, I'M NOT GONNA GO BASH HIM ON THE, THAT
• 1:12:58
  YOU TAKE CARE OF THAT, BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE OUR DEFENSE. SO
• 1:13:03
  WE'RE GONNA, NUMBER ONE, WE'RE GONNA FORGIVE. NUMBER TWO, YOUR
• 1:13:07
  WORD SAYS THAT IF THE THIEF BE FOUND, HE'S GOTTA RESTORE
• 1:13:12
  SEVENFOLD. A YEAR LATER, AND WE PROPHESIED THAT, A YEAR LATER,
• 1:13:20
  SOMEBODY WROTE US AS A GIFT, SEVEN TIMES THE AMOUNT OF THAT
• 1:13:26
  $4,000.
• 1:13:29
  AND WE KNEW IMMEDIATELY THAT THAT WAS THE HARVEST THAT WE
• 1:13:32
  WERE WAITING ON BECAUSE IT WAS THE EXACT AMOUNT. SO, DON'T TELL
• 1:13:43
  ME HE'S NOT GONNA DO IT IF WE JUST CHOOSE TO NOT LIVE IN THE,
• 1:13:49
  YOU CAN'T BE ROBBED IF YOU DON'T LET YOURSELF BE ROBBED. YOU
• 1:13:57
  KNOW, IF SOMEBODY TRIES, I WOULD RATHER BE A SEED SOWER AND
• 1:14:01
  RELEASE IT AND LET GOD TAKE CARE OF IT THAN DO THINGS, THAT'S
• 1:14:04
  WHAT PASTOR BRENDA, SHE PREACHED ON SUNDAY TOO. I MEAN, SUNDAY
• 1:14:08
  WAS REALLY GOOD. IF YOU DIDN'T HEAR, YOU SHOULD GO BACK AND
• 1:14:10
  LISTEN TO SUNDAY 'CAUSE PASTOR BRENDA'S OFFERING MESSAGE, WHEN
• 1:14:14
  SHE SAID FROM PROVERBS CHAPTER THREE, VERSE FIVE AND SIX, THAT
• 1:14:19
  TRUST IN THE LORD WITH NOT JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR HEART, ALL
• 1:14:21
  YOUR HEART, AND TO LEAN NOT TO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING. SEE,
• 1:14:24
  THAT'S THE OTHER THING. SOMETIMES WE LEAN IN TO OUR WAY,
• 1:14:30
  ESPECIALLY WHEN WE THINK SOMETHING'S NOT HAPPENING. WE'RE
• 1:14:32
  LIKE, OKAY, WELL, I NEED TO UCH GOD ALONG, OR I NEED TO HELP
• 1:14:35
  HIM. AND THEN WE LEAN INTO OUR OWN UNDERSTANDING AND INSTEAD OF
• 1:14:43
  FORCING OURSELVES TO STAY LEANED IN TO THE UNDERSTANDING OF
• 1:14:47
  ALMIGHTY GOD. AND LEAN NOT TO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING AND IN
• 1:14:53
  ALL YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM. AND IT GOES ON FROM THERE.
• 1:14:55
  MATTER OF FACT, PASTOR MARK READ SOME OF THAT AGAIN TODAY. DO YOU
• 1:14:59
  KNOW WHEN WE STAY WITH ACKNOWLEDGING GOD, THE BIBLE
• 1:15:02
  SAYS THAT IT'S HEALTH TO OUR FLESH. SO, YOU KNOW, WE'VE JUST
• 1:15:09
  GOTTA BE A PEOPLE THAT WE'VE GOTTA FORCE OURSELVES TO DIG
• 1:15:14
  DEEPER. YOU KNOW, WE, A LOT, AND THAT'S WHY THE BIBLE SAYS THERE
• 1:15:19
  ARE MANY THAT ARE SICK AND WEAK AMONG YOU. ONE, IT'S BECAUSE WE
• 1:15:24
  DON'T DISCERN THE BODY OF CHRIST. BUT TWO, SOMETIMES, HE
• 1:15:28
  ALSO SAID MY PEOPLE PERISH FOR A LACK OF KNOWLEDGE, AND IT'S
• 1:15:30
  SOMETIMES BECAUSE WE'RE CHOOSING OUR OWN KNOWLEDGE, AND THEN
• 1:15:33
  WE'RE WONDERING WHY WE ONLY GET THE LITTLE HARVEST, AND WE'RE
• 1:15:36
  NOT GETTING THE BIG HARVEST. BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, LIKE PASTOR
• 1:15:41
  SHANE WAS SINGING TONIGHT, I FORGET HOW IT WENT, BUT
• 1:15:44
  BASICALLY, THERE'S NOTHING THAT'S TOO HARD FOR GOD. TURN
• 1:15:48
  OVER IN YOUR BIBLES TO EPHESIANS CHAPTER SIX. AND LET'S GO TO
• 1:15:54
  VERSE 10, AND IT SAYS, "FINALLY, MY BRETHREN," YOU KNOW THIS
• 1:15:56
  SCRIPTURE, "BE STRONG IN," WHO? THE LORD. IN THE LORD. YOU KNOW,
• 1:16:01
  WE CAN'T BE DOING THINGS IN OUR OWN STRENGTH AND IN THE POWER OF
• 1:16:06
  HIS MIGHT. YOU KNOW, MY STRENGTH IS GONNA FAIL ME, BUT GOD'S
• 1:16:11
  STRENGTH, THE BIBLE SAYS, "THE RIGHT HAND OF THE LORD DOES
• 1:16:13
  VALIANTLY." SO BE STRONG IN THE LORD AND IN THE POWER OF HIS
• 1:16:17
  MIGHT. LET'S GO TO THE NEXT VERSE, AND IT SAYS, "PUT ON THE
• 1:16:19
  WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD "THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO STAND "AGAINST THE
• 1:16:22
  WILES OF THE DEVIL." AND IT SAYS, "FOR WE WRESTLE NOT
• 1:16:27
  AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD, "BUT AGAINST PRINCIPALITIES, AGAINST
• 1:16:29
  POWERS, "AGAINST RULERS OF DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD, "AGAINST
• 1:16:33
  SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES. "WHEREFORE, TAKE UNTO
• 1:16:37
  YOU THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD "THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND IN
• 1:16:40
  THE EVIL DAY, "HAVING DONE ALL TO STAND." THEN HE GOES ON TO
• 1:16:44
  SAY THAT IN THE NEXT VERSE, AND I DIDN'T TELL YOU GUYS TO PULL
• 1:16:47
  THIS ONE UP, BUT THE NEXT ONE SAYS, HAVING DONE ALL TO STAND,
• 1:16:50
  STAND. AND SEE, THAT'S THE THING, WE'VE GOT TO GET THE
• 1:16:55
  SPIRIT OF QUIT OFF OF US. WE'VE GOT TO GET THE SPIRIT OF OUR
• 1:17:00
  CIRCUMSTANCES OFF OF US. WE'VE GOTTA GET THE SPIRIT OF OUR
• 1:17:05
  EMOTIONS OFF OF US. WE'VE GOT TO BE A PEOPLE THAT WE'RE LIKE, NO,
• 1:17:09
  GOD, I'M GONNA KEEP SEEKING YOU, I'M GONNA KEEP PRESSING IN, I'M
• 1:17:12
  NOT GONNA LET GO OF YOU, I'M GONNA BE LIKE JACOB, I'M NOT
• 1:17:15
  LETTING GO UNTIL YOU BLESS ME. I'M GONNA STAND STRONG IN THIS
• 1:17:18
  AND I'M GONNA KICK MY EMOTIONS TO THE SIDE. HOW COULD JOB GO
• 1:17:24
  THROUGH WHAT HE WENT THROUGH AND NEVER ONCE SAY A WORD AGAINST
• 1:17:30
  THE LORD? THAT'S WHERE I THINK, YOU KNOW, I SAY WE'VE JUST,
• 1:17:35
  WE'VE GOTTA GROW. WE'VE GOTTA TRAIN OURSELVES TO BE PEOPLE OF
• 1:17:38
  THE SPIRIT. TURN OVER TO GALATIANS CHAPTER SIX AND LET'S
• 1:17:42
  GO TO VERSE SEVEN AND IT SAYS, "DO NOT BE DECEIVED, GOD IS NOT
• 1:17:46
  MOCKED." SO IN OTHER WORDS, GOD IS NOT GONNA BE MADE A FOOL OF.
• 1:17:52
  "FOR WHATSOEVER A MAN SOWS, THAT SHALL HE ALSO REAP." YOU KNOW,
• 1:18:00
  IF YOU'RE STRUGGLING IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR SPOUSE OR
• 1:18:04
  IN YOUR HOME OR WITH YOUR KIDS, ARE YOU SOWING IN KINDNESS? ARE
• 1:18:11
  YOU SOWING IN PEACE? OR ARE YOU SOWING IN ANGER? WHATSOEVER A
• 1:18:20
  MAN SOWS, THAT SHALL HE ALSO REAP. LET'S GO TO THE NEXT VERSE
• 1:18:22
  AND IT SAYS, FOR HE THAT SOWS TO THE FLESH SHALL OF THE FLESH
• 1:18:26
  REAP CORRUPTION, BUT HE THAT SOWS TO THE SPIRIT SHALL OF THE
• 1:18:30
  SPIRIT REAP EVERLASTING LIFE. LET'S GO TO VERSE NINE, AND IT
• 1:18:34
  SAYS, "AND LET US NOT BE WEARY IN WELL-DOING, "FOR IN DUE
• 1:18:37
  SEASON WE SHALL REAP IF WE," WHAT? FAINT NOT. AND AGAIN,
• 1:18:44
  GOING BACK TO OUR SCRIPTURE OF THE NIGHT, IT SAYS THAT IF WE
• 1:18:48
  FAINT IN THE DAY OF ADVERSITY, OUR STRENGTH IS SMALL. YOU KNOW,
• 1:18:50
  WE'VE GOTTA STAY IN THERE, AND JUST BECAUSE WE DON'T SEE IT
• 1:18:53
  CHANGING RIGHT AWAY, THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE STOP. AND
• 1:18:57
  NOW, THERE'S TIMES THAT I'VE GONE TO THE LORD ABOUT CERTAIN
• 1:19:00
  THINGS AND SAID, "NOW GOD, IS THERE SOMETHING "THAT I NEED TO
• 1:19:03
  CORRECT IN ME "BECAUSE I'M NOT SEEING THE HARVEST?" AND GOD
• 1:19:10
  WILL TALK TO YOU ABOUT STUFF LIKE THAT, AND HE WILL SHOW YOU,
• 1:19:13
  BECAUSE HE'S SUCH A GOOD FATHER. IT'S KIND OF LIKE IF YOUR KIDS
• 1:19:18
  ARE DOING, POOR AT SOMETHING, YOU DON'T JUST SIT THERE AND GO,
• 1:19:20
  KEEP GOING, YOU KNOW. YOU DO SIT DOWN AND HELP, TRY TO ENLIGHTEN
• 1:19:25
  THEIR EYES. SO HERE'S THE THING, WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE STORMS ARE
• 1:19:30
  COMING TO TAKE OUR HARVEST, WE'VE GOTTA LEARN HOW TO REACT
• 1:19:37
  IN THE SPIRIT, NOT IN THE FLESH. SO LET'S GO OVER TO JUDE CHAPTER
• 1:19:44
  ONE, VERSE 20, AND I'M GONNA GET DONE 'CAUSE WE'RE GETTING OUT OF
• 1:19:47
  HERE BY, WE'RE NOT GOING A MINUTE PAST 8:30, IN THE NAME OF
• 1:19:50
  JESUS. THEY SAID, BUT YOU BELOVED, BUILDING YOURSELF UP IN
• 1:19:57
  YOUR MOST, BY THE WAY, IT SAYS HOLY FAITH. YOU KNOW, FAITH IS A
• 1:20:00
  HOLY THING. PRAYING IN THE HOLY GHOST. SOMETIMES WHEN WE'RE IN
• 1:20:04
  THE MIDDLE OF A SITUATION, WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO PRAY, THAT'S
• 1:20:07
  WHERE WE JUST GET OVER IN THE SPIRIT AND WE JUST START
• 1:20:09
  PRAYING. AND YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES IF WE'RE NOT RECEIVING THE
• 1:20:18
  HARVEST TOO, JUST REMEMBER, IT'S NEVER ON GOD'S SIDE. AND SO WHEN
• 1:20:23
  WE PRAY IN THE HOLY GHOST, THAT ONE ALLOWS THE SPIRIT OF GOD TO
• 1:20:27
  COME IN AND CORRECT US, AND THAT'S HELPFUL. AND THEN, YOU
• 1:20:31
  KNOW, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? IF YOU'RE A HABITUAL SOWER,
• 1:20:35
  SOMETIMES YOU'RE GONNA FIND THAT YOU'RE REAPING HARVEST THAT YOU
• 1:20:38
  DIDN'T EVEN EXPECT. YOU'RE LIKE, OH MAN, WHERE DID THAT COME
• 1:20:42
  FROM? 'CAUSE YOU'RE SO JUST SOWING SEEDS THAT YOU DIDN'T
• 1:20:45
  EVEN REALIZE THAT A HARVEST CAME AND YOU RECEIVED IT. BECAUSE
• 1:20:55
  AGAIN, THE BIBLE TELLS US THE BLESSING OF GOD IS GONNA CHASE
• 1:20:58
  US DOWN. AND I WANNA BE A PERSON THAT WALKS IN THE HARVEST OF
• 1:21:00
  GOD. THAT DOESN'T MEAN, AND THE BLESSING OF GOD, THAT DOESN'T
• 1:21:03
  MEAN THAT, AGAIN, STORMS AREN'T GONNA COME. BUT WE'VE GOT TO
• 1:21:07
  LEARN TO SPEAK TO THE STORM. WE'VE GOT TO LEARN TO POSSESS
• 1:21:10
  OURSELVES. WE'VE GOT TO LEARN TO KEEP PLOWING. EVEN, WE CAN'T BE
• 1:21:15
  LIKE THE SLUGGER WHERE WE QUIT PLOWING BECAUSE OUR SITUATION
• 1:21:18
  SEEMS TOO HARD. YOU KNOW, IF YOU PICK UP YOUR BOWL AND GO HOME
• 1:21:23
  EVERY TIME YOU'VE GOT A PROBLEM, YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT GONNA
• 1:21:26
  SUCCEED VERY FAR IN LIFE. AND YOU KNOW, AND I'VE SEEN, I'VE
• 1:21:33
  BEEN AROUND THE BLOCK A LITTLE BIT. AND MY HUSBAND USED TO
• 1:21:37
  MANAGE A CALL CENTER BACK IN THE DAY BEFORE HE STARTED WORKING AT
• 1:21:42
  LORD OF HOSTS. AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THOSE PEOPLE, HE
• 1:21:45
  SAID YOU COULDN'T TELL THEM ANYTHING, YOU COULDN'T TEACH
• 1:21:47
  THEM ANYTHING, AND SO THEY WERE IN THE SAME GRIND ALL THE TIME,
• 1:21:50
  ALL THE TIME, BECAUSE THEY COULD NEVER GET THEMSELVES TO A PLACE
• 1:21:53
  OF EXCELLENCE TO LEARN. THEY ALWAYS FELT LIKE THEY WERE OWED
• 1:21:55
  SOMETHING INSTEAD OF BEING WILLING TO LEARN SOMETHING. SO,
• 1:22:01
  YOU KNOW, IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE OWED SOMETHING INSTEAD OF
• 1:22:04
  LEARNING SOMETHING, THEN YOU KNOW, THOSE THINGS ARE GONNA
• 1:22:07
  SABOTAGE A HARVEST. AND SO I THINK IN ALL OF THIS, THAT YOU
• 1:22:13
  KNOW, WHAT GOD IS TEACHING ME IS THAT WE'VE GOTTA TEND OUR FIELD.
• 1:22:18
  WE'VE GOTTA TEND, WE CAN'T LET THE ENEMY COME IN AND DESTROY
• 1:22:23
  OUR GROUND BECAUSE WE'RE SITTING THERE LIVING OUTSIDE OF FAITH,
• 1:22:29
  OUTSIDE THE WORD OF GOD. IF WE'RE NOT PUTTING THE WORD OF
• 1:22:31
  GOD IN THERE, THEN WE'RE NOT GONNA KNOW HOW TO REACT WHEN THE
• 1:22:33
  STORMS OF LIFE COME, WHERE WE JUST SIT THERE AND DO NOTHING
• 1:22:36
  AND JUST, OR JUST BE LIKE, KESARASRA, OKAY, YES, GOD'S GOT
• 1:22:39
  IT, BUT WE'RE NOT WORKING ANYTHING IN THE SPIRIT. IF
• 1:22:44
  YOU'RE CARELESS ABOUT IT, YOU MIGHT NOT GET A HARVEST. IF
• 1:22:47
  YOU'RE EMOTIONAL ABOUT IT, YOU MIGHT NOT GET A HARVEST. IF
• 1:22:49
  YOU'RE NOT SOWING, YOU MIGHT NOT GET A HARVEST. WELL, YOU WON'T
• 1:22:52
  GET A HARVEST. BACK IN THE DAY, WILLIAM MCDOWELL SANG A PHRASE
• 1:22:58
  THAT SAID, ♪ RAIN ONLY MATTERS TO THOSE WHO HAVE SEED IN THE
• 1:23:02
  GROUND ♪ YOU CAN BE PRAYING FOR AN OPEN HEAVEN, BUT IF YOU DON'T
• 1:23:06
  HAVE SEED IN THE GROUND, THEN THAT OPEN HEAVEN MIGHT BE
• 1:23:09
  HITTING YOUR NEIGHBOR AND NOT YOU. AND I DON'T WANT MY
• 1:23:15
  NEIGHBOR'S CROP. I WANT MY OWN CROP THAT I WORKED FOR THAT I
• 1:23:18
  CAN SAY GOD BLESSED ME WITH BECAUSE I WAS DILIGENT AND I WAS
• 1:23:22
  FAITHFUL. THAT'S WHY ABRAHAM COULD SAY, DON'T LET SOMEBODY
• 1:23:25
  SAY THAT THEY MADE ABRAHAM RICH BECAUSE HE WANTED THE BLESSING
• 1:23:33
  OF GOD. YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S THE OTHER THING. YOU KNOW, THERE'S
• 1:23:35
  NOT A SHORTCUT TO YOUR HARVEST. SOMETIMES IT'S GONNA BE A THING
• 1:23:42
  THAT YOU HAVE TO WORK AT. THAT'S WHY IT SAYS STAND, AND GO AHEAD
• 1:23:47
  AND STAND WHEN YOU'RE DONE STANDING, KEEP STANDING. YOU
• 1:23:51
  KNOW, AND THOSE THINGS AREN'T TO MAKE YOU GO, OH, WELL, GOD'S
• 1:23:54
  HARSH, HE'S NOT HARSH. IT'S JUST THAT IF WE LIVE LIKE ALL OF THE
• 1:23:59
  PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT ARE TOSSED WITH EVERYTHING THAT COMES OUT
• 1:24:05
  ON THE NEWS, TOSSED AROUND WITH THE ECONOMY, TOSSED AROUND WITH,
• 1:24:11
  WELL, I CAN'T TITHE BECAUSE THE GROCERY PRICES ARE TOO HIGH, I
• 1:24:17
  CAN'T DO THIS. AND IF WE LIVE IN THE WORLD OF I CAN'T, THEN WE'RE
• 1:24:20
  NEVER GONNA SEE THE TRUE HARVEST THAT GOD IS TRYING TO POUR OUT
• 1:24:25
  ON HIS CHURCH. AND HERE'S THE THING, I BELIEVE, AND I KNOW
• 1:24:31
  THAT WE'RE GETTING READY TO HIT THE GREATEST DAYS THAT THE
• 1:24:34
  CHURCH HAS EVER SEEN. THAT WE'RE GETTING READY TO SEE AN
• 1:24:39
  OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND I DON'T WANT IT TO PASS ME
• 1:24:41
  BY BECAUSE I'M SITTING GOING AROUND THE SAME MOUNTAIN OVER
• 1:24:45
  AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN, AND I'M NOT LEARNING ANYTHING. YOU KNOW,
• 1:24:50
  WE HAVE GOT TO DO WHAT GOD HAS CALLED US TO DO, AND WE'VE GOT
• 1:24:57
  TO DO IT BY FAITH. NOW, AGAIN, SO WHAT DO WE DO IF BAD TIDINGS
• 1:25:02
  COME? WE'VE GOTTA GO INQUIRE OF THE LORD. OUR FIRST STOP NEEDS
• 1:25:07
  TO BE GOD AND NOT, OH, THIS THING WAS BAD, YOU KNOW? AND OUR
• 1:25:17
  FIRST STOP WHEN, YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S THE THING, MAYBE THERE'S
• 1:25:21
  STRIFE HAPPENING IN YOUR FAMILY. WELL, YOUR FIRST STOP NEEDS TO
• 1:25:27
  BE YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER. YOU KNOW, AND IT'S FUNNY. I MEAN,
• 1:25:34
  YOU KNOW, MY HUSBAND AND I, NOT THAT WE EVER HAVE FOUGHT. OKAY,
• 1:25:38
  NO, WE HAVE. BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S FUNNY TO ME. EVERY TIME, LIKE,
• 1:25:44
  WE GET IN A LITTLE TIFF AND WE'RE IN SEPARATE ROOMS 'CAUSE
• 1:25:46
  WE'RE MAD. YOU GUYS CAN STAND TO YOUR FEET. GOD NEVER SITS DOWN
• 1:25:52
  AND TALKS TO ME ABOUT WHAT HE DID WRONG. NEVER, NOT ONCE. IT'S
• 1:25:55
  NEVER HAPPENED IN ALL MY YEARS. MATTER OF FACT, HE'S NEVER EVEN
• 1:25:59
  DONE IT ABOUT ANY OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS. HE ONLY EVER TALKS TO
• 1:26:01
  ME ABOUT WHAT I NEED TO DO. AND SOMETIMES I'VE SAT THERE, I'M
• 1:26:06
  LIKE, GOD, THAT'S A LITTLE UNFAIR, DON'T YOU THINK?
• 1:26:07
  (CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
• 1:26:11
  BUT AGAIN, MY PEACE CAN'T LIVE IN SOMEBODY ELSE, MY HARVEST
• 1:26:14
  CAN'T LIVE IN SOMEBODY ELSE. AND THAT'S THE OTHER THING, HUSBANDS
• 1:26:18
  AND WIVES, IF YOU ARE HAVING STRIFE IN YOUR HOME, GRAB HANDS
• 1:26:22
  AND BE PEOPLE OF PRAYER. I KNOW SOMETIMES YOU'RE NOT GONNA FEEL
• 1:26:24
  LIKE IT. THERE MIGHT BE TIMES YOU'RE GONNA LIKE, I DON'T WANNA
• 1:26:28
  PRAY RIGHT NOW. I DON'T EVEN SAY SORRY, 'CAUSE I'M NOT READY TO
• 1:26:32
  BE SORRY YET.
• 1:26:33
  (CONGREGATION LAUGHING)
• 1:26:38
  BUT WHEN WE'RE LIKE, HEY, WAIT A MINUTE, YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M GONNA
• 1:26:41
  BE A PERSON OF THE SPIRIT BECAUSE GOD ASKED ME TO, NOT
• 1:26:45
  'CAUSE I FELT LIKE IT. BECAUSE STRIFE IS GONNA UPEND MY HARVEST
• 1:26:49
  TOO, AND I DON'T WANT THAT. I DON'T WANT STRIFE FOR MY
• 1:26:54
  CHILDREN. I DON'T WANT TO GIVE THE DEVIL AN INCH. AND HERE'S
• 1:27:02
  THE THING, IF YOU DID, THEN UNDO IT. SAY, YOU KNOW WHAT, I TAKE
• 1:27:05
  IT BACK, GET OUT OF HERE. I MIGHT HAVE LET YOU IN WITH MY
• 1:27:10
  WORDS RIGHT THERE, BUT I'M TAKING THE KEY BACK, GET OUT.
• 1:27:17
  YOU KNOW, AND AGAIN, YOU CAN UNDO BAD HARVEST, BUT YOU GOTTA
• 1:27:22
  STAY WITH IT. YOU KNOW, YOU CAN UNDO THINGS THAT, YOU KNOW,
• 1:27:28
  CONSEQUENCES YOU DIDN'T ASK FOR, BUT YOU GOTTA STAY WITH IT. SO
• 1:27:35
  WAS THAT A HELP FOR ANYBODY TONIGHT?
• 1:27:37
  (CONGREGATION APPLAUDING)
• 1:27:39
  I DIDN'T MEAN TO SOUND SERIOUS, IT'S JUST, IT'S SORT OF JUST HOW
• 1:27:41
  IT KINDA CAME OUT, BUT THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN
• 1:27:43
  ON ME. I'M LIKE GOD, YOU KNOW, AND IF YOU THINK I'M PREACHING
• 1:27:46
  THAT AT ANY ONE OF YOU, I'M NOT, I'M PREACHING THAT TO ME. I'M
• 1:27:52
  LIKE, MAN, I WANT CHRISTY TO BE A PERSON OF THE SPIRIT. I WANNA
• 1:27:59
  LEAD BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD, NOT JUST BECAUSE OF HOW I FEEL, AND
• 1:28:03
  NOT JUST 'CAUSE I GOT MAD. AND I DON'T EVEN WANT TO LET SOMEBODY
• 1:28:08
  OFFEND ME. AGAIN, THAT'S A THEM PROBLEM. I'VE GOTTA BE CONCERNED
• 1:28:14
  ABOUT THE ME PROBLEM BECAUSE I WANT THE HAND OF GOD ON MY LIFE
• 1:28:18
  BECAUSE WHEN THE HAND OF GOD IS ON MY LIFE, THAT'S WHEN I'M
• 1:28:19
  WALKING IN THE HARVEST OF GOD. THAT'S WHEN I'M WALKING IN THE
• 1:28:22
  BLESSING OF GOD. 'CAUSE IT SAYS THAT HE THAT DWELLS IN THE
• 1:28:27
  SECRET PLACE OF THE MOST HIGH SHALL ABIDE UNDER THE SHADOW OF
• 1:28:29
  THE ALMIGHTY AND THAT I WILL SAY OF THE LORD, HE IS MY REFUGE AND
• 1:28:33
  MY FORTRESS, MY GOD, IN HIM WILL I TRUST. SURELY HE SHALL DELIVER
• 1:28:38
  ME FROM THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER. IN OTHER WORDS, SURELY HE'S
• 1:28:41
  GONNA DELIVER ME FROM THE TRAP OF THE ENEMY. AMEN. AMEN. AMEN,
• 1:28:48
  WELL, STRETCH YOUR HANDS TO THE LORD. FATHER, WE BLESS YOU
• 1:28:50
  TONIGHT. WE THANK YOU. YOU ARE A GOOD, YOU'RE NOT JUST A GOOD
• 1:28:55
  FATHER, YOU ARE A GOOD, GOOD FATHER, AND WE HONOR YOU. GOD,
• 1:28:58
  WE KNOW THERE IS NOTHING TOO HARD FOR YOU, AND FATHER, I PRAY
• 1:29:02
  THAT FOR EVERY ONE OF US HERE, INCLUDING MYSELF AND OUR FAMILY,
• 1:29:06
  THAT FATHER, WE WOULD BE A PEOPLE THAT SET OUR FACE TO SEEK
• 1:29:10
  YOUR FACE, TO SEEK YOUR KINGDOM, TO SEEK YOUR WAY, AND TO NOT BE
• 1:29:16
  MOVED BY ALL THE THINGS THAT WE SEE, BUT WE'RE MOVED BECAUSE
• 1:29:19
  WE'RE MOVED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD. WE LOVE YOU, LORD. YOU ARE
• 1:29:22
  SO GOOD. IN JESUS' MIGHTY NAME, AMEN, AMEN. ALL RIGHT, EVERYBODY
• 1:29:27
  HAVE A GOOD NIGHT, AND WE WILL SEE YOU BACK HERE ON SUNDAY.
