1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.400
88% of Americans are vitamin D deficient, so to get out into the sun with no sunglasses and no

2
00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:14.960
sunscreen for 30 minutes a day was one of the most powerful immune building things you could do

3
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:27.040
during COVID. In my last message I talked about some of the things that we've done

4
00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:33.520
at the road at Chapel Hills here in Colorado Springs. I talked about the declaration that we

5
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:39.360
made, the rally that we did with pastors, the op-ed that we did in our local paper, the Gazette.

6
00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:46.960
What began to happen that I think is so impactful in a city is when a church gets mobilized

7
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:53.920
through the people. So my job as a pastor is to equip the saints to do ministry.

8
00:00:54.480 --> 00:00:58.880
So I've said from day one, look I can't be at all these things, I can't do everything,

9
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:03.760
but you guys can. You can be at areas where you have a passion and interest.

10
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:10.720
And it quickly became aware to me how many women, especially mothers,

11
00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:17.920
were very much impacted by what was happening in our local schools. So I began to encourage

12
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:22.480
people to run for school boards and to get on the school boards for their districts.

13
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:27.200
And I was shocked how many people actually did it who had never run for office before,

14
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:31.920
never been involved in going to school board meetings, but they started getting

15
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:37.760
heavily, heavily involved. And it was amazing because we were able to turn six, excuse me,

16
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:44.560
five out of six school districts from liberal to conservative through running really good

17
00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:52.720
people who won their elections. And it was exciting. So the ongoing impact with the Kingdom

18
00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:59.360
of God revolution is that when people begin to feel like they're supported and they're empowered

19
00:01:59.360 --> 00:02:05.920
by the Holy Spirit, that they can begin to have a vision for certain areas that we wouldn't have

20
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:11.680
a vision for at all. And during COVID, there was all this stuff about people dying and all that.

21
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:16.960
It's very interesting. I was listening to a broadcast even today with Robert F. Kennedy,

22
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:29.440
Jr., and he was sharing that 92% of the people who died in COVID in America had 3.1 diseases

23
00:02:29.440 --> 00:02:36.080
before COVID. So basically pretty much everybody who died, nine out of 10 people who died were

24
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:43.920
already carrying 3.1 diseases in their body, like type 2 diabetes or type 1 diabetes,

25
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:50.080
cancer, obesity, things like that. They are already carrying and so they died. But he made

26
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:56.480
the point that the studies show it was almost impossible for a healthy person to die of COVID.

27
00:02:56.480 --> 00:03:04.640
It wasn't even that bad. So the pandemic was really created by the media. It was created

28
00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:10.800
by the government. And it was quite frankly, it was probably created by big pharma. So they were

29
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.760
going to make a ton of money and they have made billions of dollars off the vaccine.

30
00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:23.680
So we started a ministry with Pam Holloway in our church, who is a retired military nurse

31
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:31.440
called Radical Resiliency. And that ministry just took off. So what we did is we started looking at

32
00:03:31.440 --> 00:03:41.760
ways to have homeopathic solutions other than vaccines and pharmaceutical drugs to treat people

33
00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:48.560
who got COVID. And we had the privilege of healing over 3,000 people in our county through the

34
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:57.040
protocol that Pam developed. And since then, Pam's been written up in major health journals and her

35
00:03:57.040 --> 00:04:02.160
stuff has gone viral. So it's been amazing. But that's out of a local church. That's out of our

36
00:04:02.160 --> 00:04:10.160
church. And so even today, Pam is being used with her ministry in a really, really powerful way

37
00:04:10.160 --> 00:04:14.400
through the COVID protocol, but now protocol and a lot of others. Here's what we found. It's

38
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:20.399
interesting that the COVID protocol and supplements that we use and the vitamins that we encourage

39
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:27.520
people to take were just good for everything. It creates a stronger immune system. I started

40
00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:34.000
taking everything that she said. And so we began to equip and train at our church the importance

41
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:39.840
of getting outside. The opposite of what the government was saying. Get outside, get in the sun.

42
00:04:39.840 --> 00:04:46.240
88% of Americans are vitamin D deficient. So to get out into the sun with no sunglasses and no

43
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:54.720
sunscreen for 30 minutes a day was one of the most powerful immune building things you could do

44
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:59.840
during COVID. People who went outside, people who were in the sun did not

45
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:05.360
get covid and when they did get it they got healed very very quickly so we've continued to do that

46
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:13.200
so a kingdom of god revolution isn't just spiritual it's mental it's emotional it's physical

47
00:05:13.200 --> 00:05:20.160
it's taking care of yourself and so a kingdom of god revolution is a is a church or a group of

48
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:27.520
people who are lining up with the kingdom and are living lives that are healthy healthy lives

49
00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:32.640
healthy people live healthy lives and healthy lives are happy people we then began revival

50
00:05:32.640 --> 00:05:39.920
prayer we began to have revolutionary prayer every day at noon for just one hour we prayed

51
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:46.160
for a move of god we prayed for our leaders in our county we we prayed for our state we prayed

52
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:51.200
for god to move in a mighty way and that continues today i don't know how many consecutive days now

53
00:05:51.200 --> 00:05:55.440
we do it monday through friday but i don't know how many consecutive weeks we've been doing this

54
00:05:55.440 --> 00:06:00.640
but i think it's like two and a half years so for two and a half years every day of the week

55
00:06:00.640 --> 00:06:05.440
monday through friday we've had noon day prayer here and let me believe me sometimes it's really

56
00:06:05.440 --> 00:06:12.160
boring um we have boring prayer meetings as we can we we have as we have as good a boring

57
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:17.120
prayer meetings as anybody i know but we also have great meetings we have meetings where god's spirit

58
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:22.640
really shows up it's really powerful but we're consistently doing it we're just doing it every

59
00:06:22.640 --> 00:06:26.880
week and we believe that what god's been doing in our church and what god's been doing in our

60
00:06:26.880 --> 00:06:36.000
county is because of those prayer times we also about that time started a men's breakfast we call

61
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:43.280
it wholehearted men and this was at 6 a.m serving breakfast and doing a teaching and putting guys

62
00:06:43.280 --> 00:06:51.920
at tables with other men same table every week and that grew from about 15 men to today we're around

63
00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:58.240
400 every thursday tuesday morning so i think we're like 350 which was really low during the

64
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:06.560
summer last tuesday we'll probably be over 400 next week every week 400 men from 110 plus different

65
00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:13.920
churches not that many at any one time probably about 40 at any one time but if we take our our

66
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:20.000
aggregate total around 700 guys that represents 120 churches so it's been really exciting to

67
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:26.640
challenge men to be kingdom revolutionaries at the same time we started a voter guide i felt like

68
00:07:26.640 --> 00:07:33.680
that we really needed to have an informed citizenship an informed citizenry in our county

69
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:40.160
so we started a church voter guide and that is now spread to other parts of the country which has been

70
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:47.200
really exciting but here's what we did the church voter guide was a non-partisan way to know what

71
00:07:47.200 --> 00:07:52.560
different candidates believed so instead of going to all their websites you could come to one central

72
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:58.320
location called the church voter guide and we gave you uh let's say on the democrat side we gave you

73
00:07:58.320 --> 00:08:04.800
what every democratic candidate believes about the six or seven issues that we felt like are the most

74
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:11.200
important same with conservatives same with libertarian same with independent or um or non-party

75
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:17.680
candidates we've done that for school boards we've done that for the mayoral election which was our

76
00:08:17.680 --> 00:08:25.200
last one we've done that for all of the congressional races both on the national level as well as on the

77
00:08:25.200 --> 00:08:31.120
state level pretty much anything you're going to vote for in our county you can go to the church

78
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:37.360
voter guide and we'll show you what people believe we're not telling people how to vote we're not

79
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:43.360
taking any particular viewpoint now we have a viewpoint believe me we have a viewpoint but

80
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:47.680
that's not the purpose of the church voter guide the church voter guide is to be non-partisan to be

81
00:08:47.680 --> 00:08:54.080
fair and balanced to both sides but to give christians especially the unique opportunity to

82
00:08:54.080 --> 00:09:00.400
be able to look at what we think are key issues so i guess where we have power in doing the church

83
00:09:00.400 --> 00:09:08.400
voter guide is that we choose what we think are the four to seven most important issues and then

84
00:09:08.400 --> 00:09:14.720
we ask that question to each candidate so each each candidate gets the seven questions like two

85
00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:21.680
months before the election they send it back to us has to be 150 words or less and then we put it out

86
00:09:21.680 --> 00:09:27.840
on the church voter guide website so that was another way that we began to have an impact in

87
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:36.560
our city now you may or may not know that the first thursday of every may is the national day

88
00:09:36.560 --> 00:09:46.400
of prayer and so during the pandemic this would now be in 2022 we hosted the national day of prayer

89
00:09:46.400 --> 00:09:55.600
at our church it was just fantastic we had 27 pastors and we had about 15 or 20 leaders from

90
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:59.840
the community who came one particular pastor said it was the most powerful prayer meeting

91
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.920
ever attended in Colorado Springs and he had been living here for 40 plus years.

92
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:10.160
So it was just a powerful time. There's so many different ways you can have an impact

93
00:10:10.160 --> 00:10:18.320
and there's so many different venues where the kingdom of God is is not penetrating that area

94
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:25.120
and so we have a responsibility men and women to take that mandate to go into all the world

95
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:31.280
and preach the gospel to all creation wherever we are. Now many of you who listen to my messages

96
00:10:31.280 --> 00:10:38.640
and and go to empower you are in prison. We have we get dozens of letters every week from prisoners

97
00:10:38.640 --> 00:10:45.040
around the country who are listening to empower you and I would say to you you have a unique

98
00:10:45.040 --> 00:10:51.200
privilege too and I am amazed at the impact that so many of you guys are having in your prisons

99
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:57.200
and you're starting bible studies, you're taking seminary courses, you're you're doing stuff with

100
00:10:57.200 --> 00:11:01.920
God behind bars. I mean it's just really really exciting and so you may be hearing me today and

101
00:11:01.920 --> 00:11:07.440
go I don't know how that really relates to me. That's just not true. You have a sphere of

102
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:12.480
influence right there in the prison. You've got men around you or if you're in a women's prison

103
00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:20.640
you have women around you that have probably never really seen the gospel lived out before them

104
00:11:20.640 --> 00:11:27.840
and so I want to challenge you get your bible you know and go down in the cells and when you're out

105
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:33.520
in the courtyard and when you're working out invite these guys to bible studies. Get them

106
00:11:33.520 --> 00:11:39.280
involved where you guys are teaching and growing in truth together. You'll just have a major impact

107
00:11:39.280 --> 00:11:42.720
and there's a lot of guys that are having an impact. I had the privilege of being with my son

108
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:52.880
Isaac Holt and he was we were down in Tampa at a prison there and what a joy to be with the men

109
00:11:52.880 --> 00:11:59.680
in that prison and to share the gospel share a little bit of my story how God's worked in my

110
00:11:59.680 --> 00:12:07.040
life and then and then to hear your stories of what God's doing in your lives was just amazing.

111
00:12:07.040 --> 00:12:11.040
Even start a prayer meeting if you don't feel like you can teach the bible yet or you don't want to

112
00:12:11.040 --> 00:12:15.520
do a bible study yet start a prayer meeting start praying for a kingdom of God revolution in your

113
00:12:15.520 --> 00:12:22.240
prison in your with the guards with the prisoners with everybody and ask for God to move in a mighty

114
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:27.840
and powerful way so if you're a prisoner there's there's so many opportunities for you. You may be

115
00:12:27.840 --> 00:12:34.480
a doctor you may be a nurse you may be a teacher in the school system take the gospel there in a

116
00:12:34.560 --> 00:12:41.440
loving and kind way look for God to build stuff. I would say this you know when I think about a

117
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:48.880
kingdom of God revolution really what I'm talking about is relationship building building relationships

118
00:12:48.880 --> 00:12:56.160
so wherever you are the bridge that you build is is only as strong as the relationships you have

119
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:00.800
so you've got to develop those relationships so I want to pray for you right now if you're

120
00:13:00.800 --> 00:13:06.800
listening to this I want to pray for God to speak to your heart speak to you about how God wants to

121
00:13:06.800 --> 00:13:11.520
use you to bring a kingdom of God revolution in your realm so father in the name of Jesus I pray

122
00:13:11.520 --> 00:13:18.000
right now for everyone who's listening to this that God you speak to their hearts about a kingdom

123
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:25.680
of God revolution in the place where they live in the relationships that they have how to be bridge

124
00:13:25.680 --> 00:13:33.440
builders not wall builders how to bridge into the life of people who are hurting people who need a

125
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:40.960
friend people who are isolated people who are suicidal people who have mental anguish or emotional

126
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:48.560
anguish who are anxious about their lives God use us use them oh God in a mighty and powerful way

127
00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:57.520
right now as I'm praying I pray Lord you'd put faces of people in their heart that they're

128
00:13:57.520 --> 00:14:06.320
supposed to reach out to that you would put names that you would put an area of ministry

129
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:11.040
that you want to use them to bring the kingdom of God so speak to them Lord

130
00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:18.000
and so in the quiet quietness right now just with your eyes closed listen

131
00:14:20.560 --> 00:14:28.000
God may speak to you right now about someone or something that he wants to use you in

132
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:36.640
so God come with a kingdom of God revolution first of all in the heart of those that are

133
00:14:36.640 --> 00:14:43.360
listening to this message and then impact them with the living water of the Holy Spirit that

134
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:51.760
it would overflow into the lives of others into the lives of family into the lives of their community

135
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:57.840
into the lives of others into the lives of family into the lives of their community

136
00:14:58.720 --> 00:14:59.840
in the name of Jesus we pray

137
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:01.000
Amen.
