Keep yourself right with the Father. I think we'll be in pretty good shape.
I'm going to read a scripture to you real quick. How many love the Word of God?
Come on! Love the Word of God.
Matthew 11, 12 says this.
From the days of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of Heaven has suffered violence.
And the violence is taken by force. Amen?
I used to be a street fighter, right? And always been a passer.
You'll hear my testimony later on.
I used to run hard, hard. Yeah?
On the dark side.
I know all about the things.
I know about drugs.
I know about rock and roll.
I'm like God. Amen?
I'm sitting here with you today.
But I've been set free of the spirit of murder.
I said I've been set free of that. That's the spirit.
It's now coming.
If we're not getting ready for it, like.
Let's get ready, get ready, get ready.
Be ready, be ready.
That's what we need to be.
That's what this is about.
You worship.
But let's keep the main thing, the main thing here today, God.
If you need prayer.
If you need to meet Jesus.
Maybe you've met church.
Maybe you've met religion.
Maybe you've checked the box.
Maybe you've got your insurance policy Christianity.
But let me just tell you.
Once saved, always saved.
That's the biggest lie of the enemy.
If you've ever raised your hands and asked God into your life.
I want you to know that's an awesome thing.
If you've ever left open doors to sin.
That's why you're dealing with repetitive cycles of sin.
We've got to get it done.
We've got to surrender.
Almost surrender is not surrender.
Almost being humble is not humble.
There's perils of almost.
And you're going to hear about that.
Continue to stretch your faith.
And let's worship.
Let's create an atmosphere here.
Let's let them.
Let's let them put that on the news.
We're trying to turn this thing to be something that it's not.
Come on.
It's up to us.
We're brothers and sisters.
We're not even friends.
We're brothers and sisters.
That's way deeper.
Come on.
Let's love.
What a concept.
If we can love our neighbor.
Can we show the world?
The world's watching.
The world is watching.
Can we show them what love looks like?
Come on.
Let's worship.
Come and surrender your heart to Christ.
There's no better time than now.
If you've seen it, just label tonight.
If he wants to know you, if he wants you to know him,
that's what this is about.
It's about making Jesus famous.
You know what I tell the guys I work with, I'm the older student at the time, I'm 15
years old.
And these guys, they're on the fence.
I'm a hard ass, right?
I'm a boss.
I'm a hard ass.
I'm fair.
You work hard, you take a little break, fuck off a little bit.
You know, whatever.
And I tell them, I say, I mean, Trump was hard.
But I'm not slipping his mind back and forth.
Nope.
That's the way it is.
That's what he's gonna say.
You know, he's got these pushy guys trying to make everybody happy.
I'm gonna walk around here and see what's going on.
God bless.
I mean, I know you...
Oh, sorry.
We saw a freedom.
We grew up in a religious church.
We grew up in a church.
This is my son.
He is growing.
Holy Spirit's speaking to you right now, and He's tugging on your heart and He's saying,
come.
It's like you told Peter.
I don't know about you, but a lot of us are walking on the water.
We're walking by faith.
You may have prayed that prayer twice in your life, but maybe you never really turned.
Maybe you cried and you repented with your tears, but you didn't repent with your heart.
Repentance is not tears.
Repentance is change.
I said, repentance is not tears.
Repentance is change.
My Christian brothers were born into a Christian family.
My mom and dad taught me about Jesus.
I asked Him to be my Lord and Savior at three years old, as real as I'm talking to you right now.
They dedicated their lives to me, so I did.
Because something changed in my heart.
Now, I was saved at three years old.
I had my fire insurance, right?
But as I walk with Jesus, I get to know Him to a deeper level.
As we read the Word to transform our soul, and you get to know this Jesus to a deeper level.
So when I was 15, I was raped.
I was sexually molested.
That set me up for a lot of failure in life.
At 15, I was raped.
It made me lose hope in all my belief system.
Religion was my belief system.
I knew Jesus.
I knew His Word.
So at 17, I got pregnant.
Thank God, I gave birth to a baby girl.
I was in Jerusalem, and I went, I was in the Jordan River, just like my Savior was.
I'm telling you this for a reason.
I've had multiple encounters with Jesus.
And I grew in my understanding of what my belief system was based in.
There was an identification with Jesus.
I needed to go to a deeper level.
So that's why I'm talking to my Christian brothers and sisters right now.
Specifically.
You've been struggling.
And you really don't know why you're struggling.
You love Jesus.
You love and you believe in His Word.
You've had things happen in your life too.
Traumas.
Failures.
Abuse.
And you feel like, you know, how could God use someone like me?
But you know that Jesus, if you look at the men of God in the Bible that Jesus chose to use, they all had failure.
All had sin.
Not a one of them was perfect.
But you know what Jesus said?
These are men after my own heart.
That's why we can be up here today.
Every one of us.
Failures in our own right.
Defeated.
He saved us.
He comes from God.
He's not from us.
How many of you want to know how much He has?
I call down fire from the Ghost and fire will come upon you.
Lord, I pray for us to go deeper in you.
Understand you more.
Understand your word more.
Walk out your calling.
That's in their destiny.
If you want to receive all you have, receive it all.
And Jesus, I ask you to fill them up.
Every hurt.
Every need.
And every desire.
Let the love of Christ Jesus come upon you right now.
Like you never know before.
May you be filled to overflowing.
May your cup be full.
Let it flash over into the world around you.
May you be so full that there is no...
Not for one more day.
He's here.
Anybody that wants...
But if you want more, if you want the empowering presence of God...
He is no respecter of persons.
Two years ago, I could never have gotten in front of a crowd like this.
Not for one second.
I was so scared.
I was so timid.
Such an introvert.
I could not have done this on my own accord.
And I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Hallelujah.
And so can you.
So church, as we continue to sing, I want you to stay in an attitude of receptivity by the Holy Spirit.
Holy Spirit's got the bad rap, y'all.
Holy Spirit's not an it.
He's a person.
He is the persona of God Almighty.
He is the Spirit, the empowering presence of God.
And he was left here on the earth when Jesus ascended after his death and burial and resurrection.
He said, I must go that the Spirit might come.
And I'm telling you, the Spirit of God is here upon the face of the earth.
He just wants to give you boldness, courage.
To do the things you've been called to do.
Receive him, church.
Is there a Mark Adams here?
He wanted to be baptized last night.
Is he here today?
If so, would you meet Pastor Rod over at the baptismal?
Holy Spirit.
Spirit.
