Summary
Rev. Rick Lovall explores the 'Prophetic View of the Church,' calling believers to align their lives with the foundational visions of Old Testament prophets who saw a holy, fire-filled, and fruitful people. This alignment is essential for the church to experience the full power and presence of God as witnessed in the book of Acts.
Key points
- •The church is built on the foundation of both the Apostles and the Prophets, with Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone.
- •Prophetic alignment produces prophetic results; to experience what the prophets saw, the church must align with their revealed doctrines and character.
- •The prophets saw a church that is fruitful, holy, and defined by the fire of the Holy Spirit dwelling within individual believers rather than just a physical building.
- •Acts 2 is the fulfillment of Old Testament promises, such as Isaiah's vision of a 'spirit of burning' and the 'way of holiness.'
- •True holiness is not a man-made burden but the very character of God being formed in the believer.

Life application
This week, examine your personal walk and your local church's practices to see if they align with the 'Prophetic View' of being fruitful and holy. Choose one area of your life to submit to God's 'spirit of burning' for purification.
Reflection questions
- If a biblical prophet walked into our church today, would they recognize the community they saw in their visions?
- In what ways have you tried to 'eat your own bread' or 'wear your own apparel' instead of fully submitting to God's Word and identity?
- How does the realization that YOU are a building block for God's temple change how you view your spiritual growth and preparation?

0:09He promised he would never leave us nor
0:11forsake us.
0:13Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
0:17Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus.
0:19Well, welcome to New Life Wednesday
0:22night Bible study. I'm glad you're here
0:24tonight.
0:26It's a great time to be in the house of
0:28the Lord. Thank you so much, singers,
0:30musicians. That was excellent.
0:34You know, I I I I get to travel a lot
0:36and go to a lot of different churches,
0:38and there's just nothing like the home
0:41crew.
0:42>> I love it.
0:44>> We are so blessed here, y'all. We really
0:47are.
0:50Well, thank you, Jesus. Y'all y'all may
0:52be seated. Uh,
0:56pastor, if you happen to watch this,
0:58thank you so much for this opportunity.
1:00I do not take this lightly. Um, that
1:03song that they were just singing, uh,
1:05Isaiah 43, it's where that comes from.
1:08Um,
1:10I don't know, this is for some young
1:12minister.
1:13So, back in 200
1:18nine or 10, I don't even remember,
1:21was invited to uh I was a banker and God
1:26opened a door for us to go pastor in
1:29Sydon Missouri.
1:31And uh the service that I was there to
1:35try out,
1:37brother Basser, you you you you know of
1:39those days, you know, as a young
1:41minister, you're going to go try out at
1:43this church. And man, you got to preach
1:45your best message, you know, and buddy,
1:47I had a good one. I mean, I told God,
1:50"This is a good one."
1:53And uh I was real proud of it. I worked
1:56hard on that thing.
1:58In the service, they're doing the last
2:01song
2:02and the Lord speaks to me and says
2:05Isaiah 43.
2:08That was random. Okay. So, they're
2:10singing and I just opened my Bible to
2:12Isaiah 43 and it was that passage
2:17and the Lord spoke to me and said,
2:18"Preach this today."
2:23Lord, didn't you see these notes?
2:27you sure about this?
2:30>> So, I was obedient to the Lord and
2:32walked up there, Brother David, and I
2:35preached.
2:37I think it was I think I titled it,
2:38"Yay, though I walk," something like
2:40that.
2:43The Lord moved. It was a wonderful time.
2:45Obviously, we got elected pastor,
2:50but me and the Lord had to have a talk.
2:54I was like, "Now, Lord, now I've been
2:56praying about this." And I really
2:57thought, "Sure." And he began to deal
3:00with me. Trust my voice, [crying]
3:03>> even if you don't have notes.
3:09>> I'm a notes guy.
3:11>> I'm not like some of these guys. I can
3:13get up here and flip open the Bible and
3:14just, you know,
3:18several
3:20few months ago,
3:23I was uh preparing um
3:27to to minister somewhere. I was reading
3:29in scripture and there was a phrase that
3:31just kept jumping out at me on in a
3:33verse that we quote frequently. We're
3:35going to get to it here in a little bit.
3:37And this this phrase just kept, you
3:40know, I I was doing my thing and a few
3:43days went by, a couple weeks went by and
3:46I was at another church and uh was
3:50preparing to to minister. I think this
3:52was on I was there on Friday. I was
3:54teaching some stuff and
3:57that phrase just kept kept coming to
4:00mind. So I turned in the scripture and I
4:03read it and the Lord spoke to me. said,
4:05"Preach this on Sunday."
4:08I said, "Okay, Lord." So, I got out my
4:10notes and he said, "Nope."
4:13No notes.
4:16That again, huh?
4:20And so, I preached this message and
4:24couple weeks later I was at a different
4:25church. The Lord dealt with me again.
4:28Same theme, no notes.
4:31Third time, third service.
4:35This time he let me write some notes
4:36down. Brother Casey,
4:41it was before this church service, the
4:43Lord began to deal with me on this
4:46subject of the prophetic view of the
4:49church.
4:51What kind of church did the prophets
4:54really see?
4:57So tonight, with the help of the Lord, I
4:59want to begin a twopart Bible study.
5:02We're going to start it tonight. We're
5:03going to end it next Wednesday night.
5:05And we're going to look at the church
5:08that the prophets saw.
5:11I want to be that church.
5:13>> I want us to be that church. I don't
5:15want there TO BE IF ONE OF THOSE
5:17PROPHETS WAS ABLE TO WALK IN HERE, I
5:20WANT THEM TO GO, "YEP, THAT'S WHAT I
5:21SAW."
5:23I DON'T WANT THEM TO WALK IN, BROTHER
5:25CASEY, and go, "What is this?
5:28>> This doesn't look like, sound like, act
5:30like anything
5:32>> that we saw."
5:34>> Will you join me in prayer tonight? I
5:36want you to ask the Lord to help open
5:38the eyes of your understanding tonight.
5:40Lord Jesus, we surrender to you right
5:42now God.
5:44Lord, I know you're talking to the
5:46church. And I pray, God, you speak to
5:48every one of us tonight. Lord, open the
5:50eyes of our understanding, Lord, to be
5:53able to receive and understand and fully
5:56embrace with faith, Lord, your precious
5:58word, oh God.
6:01Let your word be confirmed with signs
6:03following, Lord, in Jesus name. Amen.
6:07Amen. Second Peter chapter 1 verse 21.
6:11We're going to start here.
6:15For the prophecy came not in old time by
6:19the will of man, but holy men of God
6:22spake as they were moved by the Holy
6:26Ghost. I like a good move of the Holy
6:27Ghost.
6:30>> THESE HOLY MEN OF God would SPEAK
6:33ACCORDING TO WHAT THE SPIRIT was
6:36inspiring them to speak. I I love
6:39studying prophecy. I I love studying the
6:42principles of prophecy. I I I've I've
6:44I've studied the office of prophecy, the
6:46gifts of prophecy. And I I want us to
6:48understand tonight that there are two
6:50definitions for the word prophecy in
6:53scripture. You find the use of one is
6:55the one we most commonly think of, and
6:57that is to foretell future events.
7:01The the second definition though is a
7:04little more broad than that. That
7:05definition is to speak under divine
7:08inspiration.
7:10In a moment, the Holy Ghost can move on
7:12you and YOU CAN SPEAK SOMETHING YOU DID
7:15NOT PLAN ON SAYING.
7:18>> You didn't come up with it on your own.
7:20That's the first clue that it's from God
7:21is you didn't come up with it on your
7:23own.
7:25I can't wait till we get to heaven. I
7:27want to sit down with Jeremiah and
7:29Isaiah and Daniel and, you know, even
7:31Obadiah and Habach and some of those
7:33GUYS AND SAY, "TELL ME WHAT WHAT IT WAS
7:35LIKE FOR YOU." But the Bible tells us
7:38that what we experience that they and
7:41the angels desired to look into, they're
7:44going to be asking you how this was
7:47>> BECAUSE WE GET TO FULFILL AND experience
7:50what they saw.
7:53>> Amos 3:7, I'm reading the New Living
7:56Translation. It says, "Indeed, the
7:59sovereign Lord never does anything until
8:02he reveals his plans to his servants,
8:05the prophets." I I love this principle
8:08in scripture. God has intentions and God
8:12has desires and God has plans that he
8:16wants to do for people, but it SAYS HERE
8:18THAT HE DOESN'T DO THOSE THINGS until he
8:21reveals it. HE'S GOING TO TELL SOMEBODY,
8:23"HEY, WATCH THIS. WHAT I'M GOING TO do
8:26now, get ready. Now, it may not be in
8:28your lifetime. That's why when we read
8:30in the Old Testament, we'll see phrases
8:32like, "And it shall come to pass in
8:34those days." THEY DIDN'T KNOW EXACTLY
8:36WHEN it was going to happen.
8:38>> They knew it WOULD HAPPEN BECAUSE GOD
8:40TOLD THEM IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.
8:43>> NOW, I I I know, and obviously IN THE
8:45OLD TESTAMENT PROPHETS, YOU THINK ABOUT
8:47IT, EVERY ONE OF THEM DIED WITHOUT
8:49seeing the promises fulfilled.
8:53>> But just because they didn't see it
8:54didn't mean it wasn't going to happen.
8:57Can I tell somebody, don't give up if it
8:59hadn't happened yet.
9:01>> God's not done yet.
9:03>> Don't put him on your clock.
9:08>> So, in in this in this Bible study,
9:10we're going to look at some things God
9:11revealed to prophets and and we're going
9:14to use Acts chapter 2 as kind of a
9:16baseline also to get through this. WHAT
9:18WHAT I BELIEVE GOD'S GOING TO DO IS open
9:20your eyes to for some of you, it's going
9:22to be a way for you to teach Acts
9:24chapter 2 in a way you've never taught
9:26before.
9:27>> Okay,
9:30>> let's
9:32let me explain something else here. We
9:34saw this happen Sunday morning. Brother
9:37Gage Hill, man, he did a phenomenal job
9:39Sunday morning. I
9:40>> I love these young ministers coming up.
9:42They're doing a phenomenal job. And he
9:44was doing great. You know, we for those
9:46of you who were here, we were worshiping
9:47around the altar and then you noticed he
9:49came back up here.
9:52So, in that service, we you know, I was
9:54over there by him and I told him, I
9:56said, "Gage, the spirit of prophecy is
9:58all over you. You're not done yet.
10:00There's something else God WANTS TO
10:02TELL, GOD WANTS TO GIVE YOU A PLAN FOR
10:04SOMETHING he wants to do so that our
10:06faith can grab a hold of that." We were
10:09praising God. WE WERE EXALTING GOD. NOW,
10:11GOD WANTED TO GO TO WORK.
10:14>> And sure enough, y'all saw him. He come
10:16back up here and I believe specifically
10:18he called out uh deliverance is in the
10:20mind.
10:22>> That that that was not in the notes.
10:24That was a moment of inspiration. HE
10:26DIDN'T COME UP WITH THAT on his own. And
10:28and if you think about it, if we can
10:30dissect that service, if you remember,
10:32AS SOON AS HE FINISHED, SOMETHING NEW
10:35BROKE loose in here.
10:37>> It went to THE NEXT LEVEL. WHAT WAS
10:39THAT? IS there was praise and worship
10:41and the spirit of God was moving. BUT
10:43THEN GOD GAVE A PROPHETIC WORD. GOD GAVE
10:45A word of direction, a plan. And when
10:48that plan was received by faith, boom,
10:50there it went.
10:53That's that's one of God's uh just it's
10:55the way he works.
10:58Let's go to the the the book of
11:00Ephesians now. Ephesians 2:es 19- 22.
11:05I'm reading out the English Standard
11:06Version here.
11:08So then, you are no longer strangers and
11:12aliens, but you are fellow citizens with
11:15the saints and members of the household
11:18of God, built upon the foundation of the
11:23apostles,
11:26wholes,
11:28>> the apostles AND PROPHETS, JESUS CHRIST
11:32himself being the chief cornerstone.
11:35Let's hold that verse there for a little
11:36bit. That phrase
11:39and the prophets was the phrase that God
11:43planted in my spirit several months ago.
11:47We we we were WE PROUDLY AND BOLDLY
11:51declare we ARE APOSTOLIC.
11:53WE'RE BUILT UPON THE FOUNDATION OF THE
11:55APOSTLES.
11:56>> JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF BEING THE CHIEF
11:58MAN. WE GOT THAT PART DOWN.
12:01>> But this says built upon the foundations
12:03of the apostles AND PROPHETS.
12:07SO IF WE WERE TO LOOK AT THE CHURCH AS A
12:10BUILDING THAT'S BEING CONSTRUCTED AND WE
12:13GO DOWN TO THE FOUNDATION LAYERS OF IT,
12:16IF WE COULD SEE IN THE SPIRIT, THERE
12:17WOULD BE there would BE BOULDERS THERE
12:19OR STONES THERE THAT WOULD HAVE NAMES
12:22LIKE PETER, JAMES, and John and and and
12:24all those apostles. AND WE'RE SO PROUD
12:26OF THAT. BUT BUT IF WE KEPT LOOKING, WE
12:29WOULD SEE THERE'S A STONE THERE THAT
12:31says Joel,
12:35>> Zachchariah,
12:37>> Isaiah,
12:39>> Jeremiah, Ezekiel,
12:43>> those prophets laid foundational stones
12:46THAT WE ARE STILL BUILT ON TODAY.
12:49AMEN.
12:50>> Verse 21.
12:53In whom the WHOLE STRUCTURE BEING JOINED
12:57TOGETHER GROWS INTO A [snorts] HOLY
13:01TEMPLE IN the Lord in whom you also are
13:05being built together into a dwelling
13:07place for God by the spirit. Let me let
13:12me open your eyes here to something.
13:14Every one of us, if you can PICTURE
13:18YOURSELF, YES, WE ARE sitting in a
13:20church tonight. We are the BODY OF
13:22CHRIST, BUT EVERY SINGLE ONE OF us is a
13:26rock, is a stone. It is A PART OF THE
13:30BUILDING. Each one of us are the
13:34MATERIALS THAT GOD IS USING TO BUILD HIS
13:37CHURCH.
13:39YES LORD.
13:40>> TH THIS SCRIPTURE TELLS US I if we STUDY
13:44OTHER SCRIPTURES, WE ARE FITLY framed
13:47together.
13:50>> THE SPIRIT OF GOD, THE HOLY GHOST IS
13:52INSIDE EACH of us BECAUSE EVERY PIECE OF
13:56THE BUILDING CONTAINS THE SPIRIT BECAUSE
13:59THE BUILDING CONTAINS THE SPIRIT.
14:02Did Did YOU CATCH WHAT THIS VERSE SAYS?
14:05IN WHOM YOU ALSO ARE BUILT TOGETHER IN A
14:07DWELLING place for God BY THE SPIRIT. WE
14:10ARE THE DWELLING PLACE OF GOD.
14:13>> SAY, "WELL, WHERE'S GOD AT?" WELL, WE
14:15KNOW GOD GOD IS EVERYWHERE, but he
14:17manifests himself. He dwells
14:19specifically and very intentionally in
14:22certain places.
14:25In the Old Testament, we understand
14:26there was a tabernacle plan. We
14:28understand that that that the spirit of
14:30God would show up there. We know that
14:31the temple that was built that Solomon
14:33dedicated that the spirit of God filled
14:35that temple and they couldn't even stand
14:37in the midst of it. BUT BUT FOR THEM,
14:39THEY COULD ONLY GET GOD IF THEY WENT TO
14:42THE TEMPLE.
14:43>> But in the New Testament, we are
14:47>> the temple. WE ALL CAN HAVE GOD for
14:49ourselves.
14:52>> So I I have some questions for us
14:54tonight.
14:57When you think about what you really
15:00believe, your core beliefs,
15:02do your beliefs and your actions align
15:07with the apostles and prophets?
15:11So, if we're each part of the building,
15:16we must, as God puts us in place, we
15:20must line up with the foundation.
15:25Does does does every doctrine you
15:27believe
15:28align with what they believed?
15:32>> And and it all centers on Jesus Christ.
15:37It says he's the chief cornerstone.
15:39Everything aligns with him. BE BECAUSE
15:42HERE LET ME LET ME GIVE YOU A LITTLE
15:43INSIGHT in what God is planning to do
15:45with you. He wants to keep building on
15:47top of you.
15:50So you are a piece of the construction
15:53materials BECAUSE HE PLANS ON not just
15:56building you but building on you.
16:00>> So can your faith and can your beliefs
16:03sustain what's coming after you?
16:09>> May maybe this is a little a little more
16:11visual than you were expecting tonight.
16:15the disciplehip process, the Bible
16:18studies, the instruction in
16:19righteousness. IT'S THE PROCESS THAT GOD
16:22uses to get us in shape so he can build
16:26with us.
16:29>> Brother Nukem, you've built a few things
16:31in your lifetime.
16:33When when you went down to the hardware
16:35store to get the materials, did it come
16:37pre-sawn?
16:40Was it pre-measured and pre-cut? And all
16:42you had to do was go down there and get
16:43the perfect dimensions and voila,
16:45there's a house. Any construction folks
16:48in here? Where you at, Tomas? Do you
16:51sell pre-cut lumber? No.
16:55No. You sell the RAW MATERIALS, Y'ALL.
16:57WHEN WE COME TO GOD, GUESS WHAT? WE ARE
17:00>> RAW.
17:01>> WE'RE RAW MATERIALS. HE'S GOT TO DO
17:03SOMETHING with us
17:04>> and do something in us so he can
17:06actually do something with us.
17:09Now, some of y'all, here you go. Some of
17:12y'all are getting frustrated with the
17:14time it's taken God to get you into the
17:16shape and the mold and the structure
17:17that he could work with.
17:20>> You you you got a call to ministry, BUT
17:22IT'S BEEN A few years and you're
17:24thinking, I should BE UP ON THAT
17:25PLATFORM TONIGHT.
17:28>> MAYBE YOU'RE NOT QUITE READY for it yet.
17:32Because if he did start building with
17:34you when you were not ready yet, the
17:36weight of all that is going to crush
17:38you.
17:42>> Each block must be strong enough to be
17:44built upon.
17:47And and here's something else. When it
17:49comes to building the church,
17:52you know, Jesus kind of gave us an idea
17:54of whose responsibility it really was.
17:58Upon this rock, I will build my church.
18:02Now we can build a congregation.
18:07We can build a community.
18:11It's happening all over the world.
18:15>> THERE THERE'S ALL KINDS OF GROUPS OF
18:17PEOPLE THAT HAVE religious beliefs that
18:20I have to question. Do their beliefs
18:23align with the apostles and prophets?
18:27>> Because one THING I'VE LEARNED IS GOD
18:29DOESN'T CHANGE HIS MIND.
18:32And
18:33>> and so we have to make sure that if
18:35WE'RE GOING TO CALL ourselves the
18:37church, we have to make sure we align
18:39with all of that so we actually can be
18:42the church.
18:46>> I want you to get this phrase in your
18:48spirit. Prophetic alignment
18:51produces prophetic results.
18:55When we come into proper alignment with
18:58the prophets,
19:00get ready.
19:03>> You're you're going to experience what
19:05the prophets are saying in the Lord.
19:08You you can't help but experience it.
19:13Let me show you some stuff here. Deep
19:15dive time. Acts chapter 2.
19:18Very familiar scripture. And when the
19:20day of Pentecost was fully come, they
19:23were all with one accord in one place.
19:26And suddenly there came a sound from
19:28heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and
19:30it filled all the house where they were
19:32sitting. And there were appeared unto
19:34them cloven tongues like as of fire, and
19:36it set upon each of them. And they were
19:39all filled with the Holy Ghost, and
19:41began to speak with other tongues, as
19:43the Spirit gave them utterance.
19:47Now, with the exception of some of our
19:49esteemed in the building,
19:53who in here can show me the prophetic
19:58component of that thing about tongues
20:02sitting on all of them? Can anyone here
20:04explain that for me? How many of y'all
20:07have been confused about that verse?
20:11Nobody's been confused about it. Am I
20:14I'm the only one that went what? Tongues
20:17of fire setting upon each of them.
20:21Can you imagine seeing that?
20:24CAN YOU IMAGINE THERE'S 120 PEOPLE
20:27PRAYING together in an upper room and
20:29you look over at Mary, the mother of
20:31Jesus Cole.
20:37>> And she looks over at James and
20:42y'all act like you're normal with this
20:44stuff. Come on, y'all.
20:47Is that not one of the oddest pictures
20:49in scripture?
20:50I mean, HOW MANY OF Y'ALL ARE GOING TO
20:52GO, "HEY, that's cool. We should
20:53Facebook that one. Or you're going to be
20:55like whoa.
20:58Like, how many of y'all maybe you've
21:00been sharing with somebody about Acts
21:02chapter 2 and you get to that part and
21:03you just kind of run through that one
21:04real quick because you don't want to
21:06have to explain it.
21:08>> Now, I'm getting somewhere. Yeah. Okay.
21:12Here's what's interesting about this.
21:14The day of Pentecost, uh, Exodus, we're
21:17not going to turn here. Exodus 23:16
21:19explains to us that the day of Pentecost
21:21was originally called the festival of
21:23harvest. It was the celebration of the
21:27first gathering of the harvest of the
21:29year. Let me say it this way. They were
21:32celebrating the first payday
21:35because with the first harvest comes the
21:37first pay. So it's payday. It's Friday.
21:40HOW MANY OF Y'ALL CELEBRATE WHEN the
21:42paycheck shows up?
21:44>> Yeah. you get a day of Pentecost every
21:46other Friday. Okay?
21:52And we understand that in this this
21:55passage here with the day of Pentecost,
21:57THIS FESTIVAL, THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF
21:59PEOPLE THAT HAD SHOWN UP IN Jerusalem to
22:01to celebrate the festival. AND IT'S JUST
22:04HAPPENS TO BE 50 DAYS AFTER UH JESUS
22:06RESURRECTED. and and and and we
22:08understand that THERE'S THIS THIS
22:10COMPONENT WHERE JESUS SAID, "NOW YOU GO
22:12TO JERUSALEM and you tarry there and you
22:14wait there until you be endued with the
22:16power FROM ON HIGH UNTIL THE PROMISE OF
22:18THE FATHER HITS YOU."
22:21THERE'S SOMETHING COMING THAT WE WE WANT
22:23YOU TO KNOW. NOW, CATCH that phrase.
22:25It's the promise of the father.
22:27>> That's that's an Old Testament promise.
22:30>> And so, sure enough, here it hits. And
22:31they all BEGIN TO SPEAK IN TONGUES. And
22:34listen, we thought Sunday was loud.
22:37>> Yeah, my Apple Watch was going off.
22:43Can you imagine
22:45what it must have been like there?
22:48THEY'RE GETTING SO LOUD IN THERE. They
22:50don't have instruments. East, they don't
22:52have a drum set set up. We don't know
22:53that they do. I think the drummer would
22:54have written about it if it would have
22:56been. and and and all of a sudden it
22:58GETS SO LOUD THAT THE PEOPLE ON THE
23:01OUTSIDE ARE GOING, "WHAT? WHAT'S ALL
23:03THIS?" WE DO HEAR THEM SPEAK THE
23:06WONDERFUL WORKS OF GOD IN OUR own
23:08language and we know they don't know
23:10that language.
23:13And somebody said, "I know what it is.
23:15They're drunk."
23:18>> Now, I don't know where they got that
23:19context.
23:20>> But here's what I've understood. People
23:22that don't understand what happens in
23:24here tend to call it crazy.
23:27But when you know that you know
23:31>> Yeah. Go ahead and call me crazy.
23:34>> Yeah.
23:35>> Just be sure you call me saved.
23:39>> So
23:41Oh, that old song just hit me. Call me
23:43gone. I'll be Anyway, that was for me
23:46and brother Bachelor right there. That
23:47was
23:49Here's the deal. Peter stood up. Acts
23:50chapter 2 verse14. I got to hurry. Peter
23:53standing up with the 11 lifted up his
23:55voice and SAID UNTO THEM, "YOU MEN OF
23:57JUDEA AND ALL YOU THAT DWELL AT
23:58JERUSALEM, BE THIS KNOWN UNTO you and
24:01hearken to my words." In other words,
24:02listen up, FOR THESE ARE NOT DRUNKEN AS
24:06YOU SUPPOSE, seeing it is but the third
24:08hour of the day. But this is that WHICH
24:12WAS SPOKEN BY THE PROPHET JOEL. And it
24:15shall come to pass in the last days,
24:16sayaeth God, I will pour out of my
24:18spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and
24:21your daughters shall prophesy, and your
24:24young men shall see visions. Your old
24:26men shall dream dreams, and on my
24:28servants, and on my HANDMAIDS I WILL
24:30POUR OUT in those days of my spirit, and
24:32they shall prophesy.
24:34>> They shall speak under divine
24:36inspiration.
24:40speaking in tonesues the way I
24:42understand this is a form of prophecy
24:49they're speaking in tonesues and Peter's
24:52explaining that
24:54and Peter goes that oh that's what Joel
24:58talked about when he said they're all
25:00going to prophesy voila
25:04they were speaking UNDER DIVINE
25:06INSPIRATION THE WONDERFUL works of God.
25:09LISTEN, WHEN YOU'RE SPEAKING IN TONGUES,
25:11YOU DON'T NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE
25:13SAYING. YOU JUST NEED TO LET GOD DO THE
25:15TALKING BECAUSE WHATEVER HE'S SAYING,
25:17YOU NEED IT IN your life.
25:20>> You You don't know WHAT WHAT NEW THINGS
25:22HE MAY BE SPEAKING INTO your life. You
25:24don't know what plans he's revealing in
25:26the spirit realm BECAUSE EVERYTHING ELSE
25:28UNDERSTANDS WHAT IT IS.
25:31>> Let him talk.
25:34>> Boy, that one hit. I felt that one.
25:36Somebody
25:38Just let him do the talking.
25:40>> He He's got a good history on what
25:43happens when he talks.
25:47>> I mean, HE TOOK A WHOLE BIG MESS OF PILE
25:49AND NOTHING, STARTED SPEAKING TO IT, and
25:52we get this beautiful creation WE LIVE
25:53IN. WHAT DO YOU THINK HE'S GOING TO DO
25:55WITH SOMETHING HE ACTUALLY DIED FOR?
25:59>> LET HIM DO THE TALKING.
26:04>> NOW, I love this. You know, he Peter's
26:06quoting Joel here,
26:08>> but he could have quoted Isaiah.
26:14>> Let's just dive right into this. Isaiah
26:164, verse number two.
26:21>> Now, notice the first three words in
26:24that day.
26:26>> Isaiah's not sure what day. He just
26:28knows it's a day coming.
26:31>> Now, we're I'm going to take this kind
26:33of slow. I'm going to pull out some
26:34pieces of it as we go here. God is
26:36revealing stuff to Isaiah in that day.
26:39Shall the branch of the Lord be
26:41beautiful and glorious.
26:43I don't have time for that Bible study,
26:45but the branch of the Lord, you I am the
26:47vine, you are the branches,
26:49>> the church of the Lord,
26:51>> shall be beautiful and glorious, and the
26:53fruit of the earth shall be excellent
26:55and comely for them that have escaped of
26:57Israel. There are people that have
26:59escaped. THERE'S A SALVATION PLAN that's
27:02happening. And these people are going to
27:04be fruitful. Hello, fruit of the spirit.
27:08>> And it shall come to pass that he that
27:10is left in Zion and he that remainth IN
27:12JERUSALEM SHALL be called
27:15>> holy
27:17h
27:19even everyone that is written among the
27:23living
27:25in Jerusalem.
27:27Written among the living.
27:30What does that sound like?
27:32The Lamb's
27:35The Lamb's Book of Life.
27:38There's a new name written [singing]
27:39down in glory.
27:41Any of y'all remember that song?
27:43>> Okay, thank you. Just making sure I was
27:46in a Pentecostal church.
27:51The Watch happening here.
27:54Isaiah is getting a picture of something
27:57that he he's not sure when,
28:00but he knows it's coming. A
28:03>> and he can see that it's a branch off
28:05the Lord.
28:06>> And he can see that it has fruit.
28:09And he can see THAT THESE WHATEVER IT
28:13IS, this people that's had their name
28:15written down among the living, the
28:18lamb's book of life.
28:21And then he goes, "They're called holy."
28:25>> Yes.
28:26>> Verse four, "When the LORD SHALL HAVE
28:29WASHED AWAY THE FILTH,"
28:31>> Come on now,
28:34>> of the daughters of Zion, AND SHALL HAVE
28:36PURGED THE BLOOD OF JERUSALEM FROM THE
28:38MIDST thereof by the spirit of judgment,
28:41and by the spirit of
28:43>> burning.
28:45>> There's one coming after me whose
28:48sandals I'm not worthy to unloose.
28:51when he comes, he's going to baptize you
28:53with the Holy Ghost. And
28:58>> Isaiah is starting to see this THIS
29:00THING COME TO SHAPE AND AND HE'S GETTING
29:02LITTLE BITS AND PIECES OF IT. AND AND
29:04THERE'S SOMETHING HE KNOWS THAT THERE'S
29:06A CLEANSING THAT happens to these people
29:08that are fruitful and called holy.
29:12See, we're piecing this together now.
29:14the these these people that are the
29:16branch of the Lord that that that are
29:18holy people AND ARE FRUITFUL PEOPLE.
29:20THESE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN WASHED THERE.
29:23THERE'S BEEN A CLEANSING that's
29:24happened. And this cleansing has come by
29:26the spirit of judgment.
29:30Hold up. Now,
29:33this does not say a judgmental spirit.
29:38>> That's what humans develop.
29:41But the spirit of judgment, the spirit
29:44OF JUDGMENT IS THAT CONVICTION THAT HITS
29:47US. Th this this the spirit FROM GOD
29:50THAT THAT COMES UPON US WHEN THE WORD
29:52STARTS POINTING OUT THE THINGS WE'VE
29:54DONE WRONG AND IS CALLING US TO A PLACE
29:56OF REPENTANCE. IT'S TRYING TO CALL US TO
29:58A PLACE WHERE HE CAN WASH US AND HE CAN
30:01PURGE US.
30:04>> And then he sets us on fire.
30:08>> Look at verse five.
30:10We're going to take this one slowly. And
30:12the Lord will create upon every dwelling
30:16place
30:18of Mount Zion, and upon her assemblies a
30:21cloud and smoke by day, and the shining
30:23OF A FLAMING FIRE by night. For upon ALL
30:27THE GLORY SHALL BE A DEFENSE, AND THERE
30:28SHALL BE A TABERNACLE, FOR A SHADOW IN
30:30THE DAYTIME, FROM THE HEAT, FOR A PLACE
30:32OF REFUGE, AND FOR A COVERT from storm
30:34and rain. Aren't you thankful for that
30:36resting place we have in the Lord?
30:40This this scripture is where THE THESE
30:44FOLKS BELIEVE THAT THIS MOMENT THAT
30:46HAPPENED ON THE DAY OF PENTECOST WHERE
30:48CLOVEN TONGUES LIKE AS OF FIRE WERE
30:50SETTING UPON EACH OF THEM. THIS
30:51SIGNIFIED THAT THIS IS NO MORE ABOUT
30:54GOING TO A TEMPLE TO EXPERIENCE GOD. NOW
30:57IT'S TALKING ABOUT A GOD WHO WILL GO TO
30:59EACH INDIVIDUAL temples to experience
31:02them.
31:05This is one of those this IS ONE OF THE
31:07GREATEST MIRACLES IN scripture
31:10and AND WE SO OFTEN OVERLOOK IT. THIS
31:13FACT THAT GOD WHO AT ONE TIME WOULD ONLY
31:17DWELL IN A TABERNACLE OR IN A TEMPLE IN
31:20ONE SPECIFIC SPOT ON EARTH HAS NOW MOVED
31:23OUTSIDE THAT BUILDING.
31:27WHAT? Know you not that your body is the
31:32>> temple of the Holy Ghost? You're not
31:35your own. You're bought with A PRICE.
31:37>> THEREFORE, GLORIFY God in your bodies.
31:42>> Each one of us is now a temple.
31:46EACH ONE OF US IS DESIGNED TO CONTAIN
31:50THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
31:52>> BUT IT DOESN'T COME BY our first birth.
31:55It comes by our second birth.
31:58>> WHEN WE'RE BORN AGAIN OF THE WATER AND
32:00OF THE SPIRIT, THEN WE CAN BECOME PART
32:04OF THE TEMPLE. WE NOW ARE THE BUILDING
32:06BLOCKS THAT HE NOT ONLY WORKS WITH BUT
32:09lives in.
32:14>> The prophets,
32:18they got to see
32:20a holy church.
32:24They got to see an on fire church.
32:29If Isaiah were to show up in here,
32:33would he look around and go, "Yep,
32:36that's what I saw."
32:41I wonder if in the spirit
32:44if God would open our eyes,
32:47wouldn't you love it
32:50if you could see each one of you like
32:53the prophets saw you?
32:59>> No, no. We we we tend to look at people
33:03for how they have interacted with us.
33:06you know, may have said something they
33:08probably shouldn't have said or pointed
33:11out something they didn't point out. And
33:13that judgmental spirit comes on us and
33:15we
33:17>> Oh, God help us.
33:20>> But what if we could see each other for
33:23how the prophet saw it?
33:27>> That person, that's one of those washed
33:29people.
33:31>> Uhhuh.
33:32>> Huh? That one right there, that that's
33:34one of those fruitbearing people.
33:38>> Oh, I know they have a human side, but
33:40in the spirit, what God is trying to do
33:41with us is so much more. My God, I feel
33:44the Holy Ghost.
33:48>> God, open our eyes to see this.
33:51>> We have to see each other for how God
33:54sees us and for how the prophets saw us.
33:56They saw US AS A UNITED BODY, PIECES OF
33:59THE SAME BUILDING. THIS BUILDING THAT
34:01GOD WAS LIVING IN AND WORKING THROUGH.
34:04THAT'S WHAT WE ARE.
34:11>> We're going we're going to keep going.
34:14Isaiah 35.
34:18Actually, I got to stay there for a
34:20second. Okay.
34:22Do do you notice
34:24Do you notice how that in the Old
34:26Testament
34:28before the fire would fall.
34:33There was a holy sacrifice.
34:37There was a true sacrifice.
34:39>> And when the sacrifice was there and the
34:42fire would fall, the presence of God
34:45would show up.
34:47folks, that that principle hasn't
34:49changed.
34:51When we come to God and we surrender
34:54everything to him and we submit
34:56everything to him and we repent of our
34:58ways, I'm telling you, that's what
35:00activates God to go to work on your
35:03behalf. Then he says, "OH, NOW I'VE GOT
35:05SOMETHING I can work with. And I don't
35:07just want to work with it. I want to
35:09work in it." And then he gets down
35:11inside of us with his spirit and he
35:13proves he's IN US BY OVERTAKING OUR
35:16VOICE AND SPEAKING OUT THROUGH US AND
35:18SAYING, "YEP, THIS IS MY TEMPLE NOW."
35:27>> Isaiah 35
35:30>> verse three. This is what he saw the
35:33church doing. Strengthen ye the weak
35:35hands. Confirm the feeble knees. SAY TO
35:38THEM THAT ARE OF A FEARFUL HEART, "BE
35:41STRONG. FEAR NOT. BEHOLD, YOUR GOD WILL
35:44COME WITH A VENGEANCE, EVEN GOD WITH A
35:46RECOMPENSE. HE WILL COME AND SAVE YOU."
35:51>> Somebody needs to look at somebody and
35:53say, "Hey, don't be afraid. God's
35:54showing up on your behalf.
35:56>> God's coming to help you."
36:00>> My Lord,
36:02I I love this. It says it says that God
36:05is going to show up. YOU SEE THAT? HE
36:07WILL COME.
36:09>> Can I do a little one God message here?
36:11He didn't just send some junior God out
36:13there somewhere. HE SAID, "NO, I'M GOING
36:15TO SHOW UP. I AM GOING TO COME. I'M
36:18GOING TO BE THE ONE to save them. I'M
36:21GOING TO BECOME YASHA, JESUS, THE
36:23SAVIOR."
36:26[cheering]
36:26>> NOT NOT SOME OTHER PART OF A SOME my
36:30Lord. Here we go.
36:33[cheering]
36:35>> Listen. AND WHEN HE WANTS SOMETHING DONE
36:37RIGHT, HE DOES IT HIMSELF. AND HE'S COME
36:39TO SAVE YOU. HE'S COME TO DELIVER YOU.
36:41HE'S COME TO my Lord. [cheering]
36:46HE SAID, "I WILL COME AND SAVE THEM."
36:54>> COME ON, JUST THANK GOD FOR A LITTLE
36:56BIT. HE SHOWED UP HIMSELF ON YOUR
36:58BEHALF. HE SHOWED UP TO SAVE YOU.
37:02[applause and cheering]
37:16Watch this. Watch this. We got to keep
37:18moving.
37:19>> He said, "I'm going to come and save
37:21them." Look at the very first word of
37:24the of the next verse here. Verse five.
37:27THEN
37:29>> WHEN GOD SHOWS UP, THEN STUFF STARTS
37:32HAPPENING.
37:34Jesus showed up ON THE SCENE, GOD IN THE
37:36FLESH. ALL THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD
37:38DWELLING IN HIM BODILY. AND WHAT STARTED
37:41HAPPENING? Eyes were being open. Deaf
37:43ears were unstopped. The lame were
37:44walking. THE DUMB WERE SPEAKING. DEAD
37:46PEOPLE WERE GETTING UP AND WALKING.
37:49>> THAT'S WHAT ISAIAH SAW.
37:52>> Then the eyes of the blind shall be
37:53open. The ears OF THE DEAF SHALL BE
37:55UNSTOPPED. VERSE NUMBER SIX. THEN SHALL
37:57THE LAME man leap as a heart. The deer.
38:00HUH? AND THE TONGUE OF THE DUMB SHALL
38:02SING. FOR IN THE WILDERNESS, IN THE DRY
38:05PLACES, WATERS SHALL BREAK OUT, STREAMS.
38:08WHAT'S HE TALKING ABOUT? WHEN YOU HAVE
38:11BELIEVED, AS THE SCRIPTURE HAS SAID, OUT
38:14OF YOUR BELLY SHALL FLOW RIVERS OF
38:16LIVING WATER, THAT WHICH HAS BEEN DRY
38:19AND PARCHED AND BARREN, NOW HAS
38:22SOMETHING SPEWING ON THE INSIDE, CALLED
38:24THE SPIRIT OF GOD. [screaming]
38:27>> FOR WITH JOY SHALL YOU DRAW WATERS OUT
38:30OF THE WELLS OF SALVATION, Verse
38:36seven.
38:37>> And the parts ground shall become a pool
38:40AND THE THIRSTY LAND springs of water IN
38:42THE HABITATION OF DRAGONS WHERE Y'ALL
38:44BEEN BATTLING with demons. ALL OF A
38:46SUDDEN NOW AIN'T NO DEMONS NO MORE CUZ
38:49THE HOLY GHOST SHOWED UP IN YOUR HOUSE.
38:53>> THEN YOU'LL HAVE SLEEP AS SWEET AS THE
38:56HEAVENLY HONEY. [cheering]
39:02Now listen, we we we LOVE ALL THAT. WE
39:04CELEBRATE THAT
39:05>> AND I'M THANKFUL for all that.
39:08>> And I don't want to diminish ANY OF
39:09THAT.
39:10>> BUT THE PROPHET WASN'T DONE SEEING.
39:15>> Look at that next verse.
39:17And a highway shall be there.
39:21>> Uh-huh.
39:22>> And a way.
39:24Jesus said, I am the way.
39:27AND IT SHALL BE CALLED THE WAY of
39:31>> holiness.
39:34>> I I don't believe in all that holiness
39:37stuff. Well, then you don't believe in
39:38the church.
39:41>> Oh, well, all that holiness stuff that
39:43that that can't be for the modern
39:45church. That offends TOO MANY PEOPLE. HE
39:47DIDN'T My Lord Jesus, help me right
39:49here. He came to seek and to SAVE THAT
39:52WHICH WAS LOST. IF HE'S GOING TO DRAW
39:54YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELOUS
39:55LIGHT, HE'S GOT TO TAKE YOU OUT OF THE
39:57JUNK YOU'RE LIVING IN AND PUT YOU INTO A
40:00NEW WAY OF LIVING, A NEW WAY of living.
40:04AND IN THAT NEW WAY, THERE'S HOLINESS.
40:06IT'S BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN BROUGHT OUT.
40:07YOU'VE BEEN SOUGHT OUT. HE'S DRUGGED YOU
40:09OUT OF THE PIT OF HELL.
40:11>> WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO KEEP LIVING IN
40:13THAT?
40:16[cheering]
40:18>> HE DIDN'T DIE TO LEAVE YOU WHERE HE
40:20FOUND YOU. HE DIED TO SET YOU FREE.
40:35>> OH, come on. Holiness has gotten a bad
40:37rap.
40:39>> Huh?
40:40>> And in and in in some circles and maybe
40:42I it circles in even in this church. The
40:44Lord showed me there's circles in here.
40:46PEOPLE THAT IS STARTING TO QUESTION THIS
40:48THING CALLED HOLINESS and all this
40:49holiness stuff. I got news for you. Oh
40:52Jesus.
40:53>> Oh Jesus.
40:56>> THE PROPHETS SAW A HOLY CHURCH. THEY SAW
41:00A DELIVERED CHURCH. THEY SAW A HEALED
41:03CHURCH. THEY SAW A A REDEEMED CHURCH.
41:07THEY SAW A CHURCH THAT HAD BEEN BECOME
41:09FRUITFUL WHERE IT HAD BEEN DESOLATE. AND
41:12THEY SAID, "THERE IS ALSO IN THIS CHURCH
41:14A THING CALLED HOLINESS.
41:18[cheering]
41:22August the 30th.
41:24>> August the 30th of this year. We were in
41:26Jonesboro Arkansas.
41:29That was the service where God told me
41:31to preach this with no notes. And my
41:34wife and I early that Sunday morning. We
41:37went outside. You know, I'm trying to
41:39get my steps in every day. I need to
41:41live a little longer. Some of y'all know
41:42what I mean by that.
41:45>> We were out just walking the street
41:47there early that morning. And she said,
41:49'Well, what are you preaching today? I
41:52said, 'Well, that's uh not real sure. I
41:56I got the key verse. I know that. I got
41:57a little bit, but we'll we'll just kind
41:59of see where this goes. I started
42:01telling her about it. The more I talked,
42:02the more I realized it was coming. Here
42:04we go. And nothing to write on.
42:09Some of y'all don't have a clue how
42:10scary that is.
42:14And and and and I'm walking down the
42:16street there, man. And all of a sudden,
42:18the Holy Ghost hit me.
42:21>> And I heard the Lord say something, and
42:24I'm about to share it with you here in
42:27just a minute. And when I heard him say
42:29this, it's some of the most fearful
42:33words I've ever heard from the Lord.
42:39He spoke to me so clearly.
42:42He said, "No one will make a liar out of
42:45my prophets.
42:50Dear God,
42:52he kept Dilly said, "You tell them that.
42:55You tell them they can start whatever
42:57kind of church they want. You tell them
43:00they can establish whatever kind of
43:01religion they want.
43:03But if it's not what the prophet saw,
43:06>> it's not my church."
43:15Oh, I'm following the Holy Ghost right
43:17now. I want you to go back, [applause]
43:19brother. I I I didn't give you this
43:20verse, but I feel it. It's back at
43:23Isaiah chapter 4. Go to verse one.
43:27This this prophecy was resemblance of a
43:30real experience they had in Israel, but
43:32it was also a prophetic experience.
43:36Oh my god.
43:38In that day,
43:40seven women shall take hold of one man,
43:44saying, "We will eat our own bread,
43:48and we will wear our own apparel.
43:52ONLY LET US BE CALLED BY THY name to
43:55take away our reproach."
43:58Do you realize that in modern
44:01Christianity
44:04the I've I've I've studied this out and
44:06you can divide
44:09every Christian belief
44:12into eight categories.
44:21Eight different brides vying for one
44:25husband.
44:28And seven of them have said, "We want
44:31your name,
44:34but we'll eat our own bread
44:38>> and we'll wear what we want to wear.
44:43>> We will define our own identity
44:47>> and we will choose
44:50what bread we want out of this word."
44:54Come on.
44:56>> But there's one other lady.
44:59>> And when you get to verse two, you hear
45:01about her.
45:04>> The bride that had the fire fall on her.
45:07>> The bride that was called holy.
45:15>> That's us.
45:19>> Now, here's the deal.
45:22I DON'T WANT to be judgmental
45:25against these seven ladies
45:29>> because they do recognize the name.
45:34>> I I'm about to share my personal
45:37opinion. I don't know if pastor has this
45:39opinion. If he doesn't, he can correct
45:41it. I submit to him. But I believe the
45:44final revival on this planet
45:48will BE THOSE WHO DO ACKNOWLEDGE HIS
45:51NAME, THAT HAVE realized there's some
45:53better bread and there's some better
45:54apparel. And they're going to get a
45:56revelation of who he really is and what
46:00he really came to do. And we won't HAVE
46:02ENOUGH ROOM IN THIS CHURCH. IT'LL BE IN
46:04ALL KINDS OF CHURCHES. AN OUTPOURING OF
46:06THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
46:09[applause]
46:13I'M NOT JUDGING THOSE OTHER SEVEN brides
46:17>> cuz I KNOW THERE'S A PLACE OF GRACE AND
46:19A PLACE OF repentance
46:22>> cuz he's not willing that any should
46:23perish.
46:26>> But Lord have mercy on those
46:30>> who are determined to eat their own
46:32bread
46:33>> and wear their own apparel.
46:41This message is a call to prophetic
46:43alignment.
46:45This message is a call TO TO TO
46:47QUESTION, DO MY BELIEFS ALIGN WITH THE
46:51APOSTLES AND PROPHETS.
46:57SON, as you get older, there's all kinds
47:00of stuff in this world that's going to
47:02try to get you to believe it.
47:06I'm preaching to my own son tonight, but
47:08y'all get this for free.
47:11>> And I was there and I had to work out my
47:13own salvation with fear and trembling.
47:15>> And you're going to have to work it out
47:16and Parker's going to have to work it
47:18out.
47:19>> This stuff doesn't come by osmosis.
47:24But when you fall in love with the name
47:31>> and you recognize THAT HOLINESS IS NOT A
47:34MAN-MADE THING.
47:37>> IT IS THE CHARACTER OF GOD HIMSELF.
47:41[cheering]
47:42>> We say, "Lord, I want to be like you.
47:45>> AND IF THERE'S THINGS ABOUT ME THAT NEED
47:47TO CHANGE,
47:50>> GOD, MOLD ME, MAKE ME. I I WANT TO BE
47:54ONE OF THE BUILDING BLOCKS THAT YOU CAN
47:56BUILD ON. I WANT TO BE A BUILDING BLOCK

48:12MY GOD, I WANT TO BE THE CHURCH THAT THE
48:14APOSTLES AND THE PROPHETS FOUGHT AND
48:17DIED FOR. I WANT TO BE THE CHURCH THAT
48:19THE PROPHETS WERE NOT AFRAID TO BE SAUNA
48:22UNDER for
48:27because according TO HISTORY
48:29THAT'S HOW ISAIAH DIED.
48:33THERE THERE'S JEWISH HISTORY THAT SAYS
48:35THAT ISAIAH WAS LITERALLY CUT IN two
48:41and we think we're going to MAKE IT TO
48:42HEAVEN EATING OUR OWN BREAD.
48:47We think we're GOING TO MAKE IT TO
48:48HEAVEN BY DISCOUNTING THE THINGS THAT
48:50THEY SO DESPERATELY LIVE FOR.

66:25healing. Ye shall receive thy peace. I
66:29say I am the peace of God. I am the
66:31peace OF THIS EARTH. CAN I GIVE you only
66:35I say I glory and healing and I say
66:40those are weary
66:47and yall
66:50I am
67:00[music]
67:46What a word.
67:55It's in moments like these that we
67:57cannot let pass by.
67:59Nor can we forget
68:02that our God loves us so much that he
68:05wants us to draw near to him so that he
68:08can draw near to us.
68:11He doesn't want to leave us alone. He
68:14wants to be with us. He wants to walk
68:16with us. He wants to show us the way.
68:20And as I was sitting there, um
68:23Isaiah 55 came to mind. It says, "Seek
68:27ye the Lord while he may be found.
68:32Call ye upon him while he is near. Let
68:37the wicked forsake his way, and the
68:40unrighteous man his thoughts, and let
68:44him return unto the Lord, and he will
68:48have mercy upon him, and to our God, for
68:53he will abundantly pardon. For my
68:56thoughts are not your thoughts, neither
68:58are your ways my ways, sayeth the Lord.
69:01For as the heavens are higher than the
69:03earth, [music] so are my ways higher
69:06than your ways, and my thoughts than
69:09your thoughts.
69:12It's time to return
69:15back to that place he desires for us to
69:17be, and that's at his his feet, seeking
69:21his [music] presence so that he may
69:23guide us and keep us and teach us his
69:26ways so that we can't see as the prophet
69:29saw. So that we can walk in the that
69:32which he desires us to walk. So that
69:35those that come in who do don't know the
69:38way, we can help show them the way. Why?
69:40Because we've been in his presence.
69:42Because we're following him because
69:43we're seeking him and he's showing us
69:46where to go. And we say, "Follow us." As
69:48we follow the Lord. Amen. Praise God. I
69:52have my notes down. I'm going to be
69:54looking and reading over this throughout
69:56this week because I want to know more.
70:02I want to know him more.
70:08>> I don't want him to pass me by.
70:11>> And there are souls out there that he
70:13wants us to reach. And this world is
70:16coming to an end. We've said it. We
70:17heard it. We know it. But the time is
70:20near. Seek him while he can't be found.
70:26Let us stand.
70:31Father, we thank you for this word.
70:36>> We thank you for your presence.
70:39And we thank you that you are with us.
