Welcome everyone to Supernatural Saturday. Like I always say, if you're new to Supernatural Saturday,
welcome. We're going to have a supernatural time together today. Supernatural Saturday is a time
where we lean into the prophetic reality of what God is doing. What is heaven saying? What's
happening right outside of our five senses? What's happening? What is that we have to tune into and
use our spirit to follow after? That is what we do on Supernatural Saturday. I'm going to give us
all a challenge. Because this is the month of momentum, this March is about momentum. I don't
know if you're seeing it, but I'm definitely seeing it. If you didn't listen to last week's
Supernatural Saturday, or even the week before, make sure that you catch up because we're going
somewhere. God is building, and so we need to go together. But I am definitely seeing momentum in
different areas. And when things start moving fast, you start to notice where you're not
prepared, don't you? That's what starts happening. When you start moving fast, you start noticing
where you're not prepared. And so guess what? We have the grace on our lives right now to go ahead
and continue to prepare because we know that the momentum is going to continue to increase.
So to add to that momentum, and I know that Bethany has been saying something about this on
Faith Friday, let's come out of hiding. And starting next week on Supernatural Saturday,
including myself, let's try to be on camera if we can. In fact, try to be on camera for every live
event that we do in March. Okay, that's online. Let's try. Because we are going to start doing
things in person as well. We just started, let's just give a big woohoo. We started,
we launched, Soft Launched, our last trip single brand with a intimate private retreat. You guys,
if you got an email about that, you're like, woo, that's out of my price range. Don't worry about
that. That's just one trip. Okay? If you can go on that trip, awesome. It's going to be incredible.
It's going to be amazing. But that's just the first trip that's released. There's going to
be another trip released here really soon with a lower price point. And there's going to be a lot
of local trips and different things that you will be able to share with your local brothers and
sisters. But this is just one of those private retreats. We kept the price down as much as we
could. And I know that it's going to be an amazing time for those that can go. How many people here
know that everybody has it different? Some people have a lot of money, but they don't have a lot of
time. Some people have a lot of time, but they don't have a lot of money. Right? I see a few
nodding your head like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Some people don't have either. They don't have time
or money. You know, some people have a lot of grace and a lot of patience and other people
have a lot of ingenuity and creativity. You guys, that's why we all need each other because we all
have it differently. And it's, it's easy to always look at someone else and say, oh, I wish I had it
like them, but you would have all the problems that come along with whatever it is that they have.
Right? Everybody suffers. I want us to just get that through our head right now. Everybody suffers.
We just all suffer differently. Right? So that's the housekeeping. I want to get out of the way
and I'm going to jump in. This might possibly be one of the most important supernatural Saturdays
that we've ever done. So let's look to heaven. Father God, I thank you so much for your goodness
and your grace. I thank you for everything that you're doing your sons and daughters lives,
including mine. I thank you, Lord, that you're going to speak to us and through us today that
you have a message for us to receive today. That's important. That could change our lives and the
lives of those around us. If we will receive it, give us ears to hear, give us hearts to receive
in Jesus name. Amen. Okay. I want to tell you guys something very important.
The fields ever since Jesus's time, they have been ripe and ready and waiting for harvest.
In fact, Jesus looks up, he raises his eyes, picture it with me. He raises his eyes to the
fields. He's with his disciples. He looks up and he says, don't say that the harvest is in this month
or in this time. Look up, there it is. It's ready and waiting. The harvest is now
and it's white and it's ripe and ready to go.
As Jesus performed his earthly ministry, there were people that were ripe for the picking and
they began to follow Jesus. There were people that he said, if you have ears to hear,
hear, if you can understand what I'm saying through these parables, then that means what?
You're ready. You're ready. You're not going to be offended by the kingdom. You're going to be
excited by the kingdom. There were those people. So there was harvest.
It's happening as the good shepherd walked the earth.
And then after, obviously, after he ascended to heaven
and the great commission was put upon the followers
to continue in his work with the help of who?
Holy Spirit.
He said, hey, listen, I'm going to heaven.
I'm gonna go with my father
and I'm gonna prepare a place for you to come to.
But in the meantime, I need you to finish the work
that I started here,
but you're not gonna do it on your own.
In fact, don't do it on your own.
I want you to go to Jerusalem
and I want you to wait there
until the one that I'm sending comes.
You guys notice that he called Holy Spirit
the one that I'm sending.
It's not just a spirit, it's a person.
Holy Spirit is a person.
The three persons of the Holy community of heaven,
Father, Son, Holy Spirit.
Okay?
The Spirit of God.
And that Spirit came, we know,
on the day of Pentecost, Acts chapter two.
If you want to go read about it,
there were people waiting.
They were waiting.
Bible says they were tarrying, which means waiting.
They were waiting for the promise
that Jesus had spoken to them
before he ascended into heaven.
He said, hey, go wait.
And this one's gonna show up.
He's not gonna just be with you like me in a human body
because Jesus couldn't crawl inside their skin, right?
He couldn't direct and lead them around.
He could only use his words.
He could only use his actions.
He said, he's not gonna just be with you.
He's gonna be in you.
In you.
Indwelling, y'all.
And that just goes to show you,
and I want you to see this, please,
that you can be a Christian, a Christ follower,
but not yet, there's the good word,
not yet be indwelled by the Spirit.
Right?
We all have that moment in our lives
where we're indwelled by the Spirit.
I believe from the moment that you become a believer,
when you profess your belief in Christ, you're saved.
The Bible says, if you, what?
If you believe in your heart,
if you confess with your mouth
that Jesus Christ is Lord, you'll be saved.
Amen?
That's good theology right there.
So for all of you that are worried about your grandma
and papa and all the people that maybe didn't get indwelled
by the Spirit in this lifetime,
you're like, oh, did they go to heaven?
Yes, ma'am.
Yes, sir.
First of all, what you need to know
is God's not trying to keep anybody out of heaven.
All right?
He's not sitting around with a clipboard
trying to mark off things, trying to keep you out of heaven.
This is not like getting into some exclusive club
and you're outside and you're not dressed right
or you're not important enough
or you're not rich enough or whatever
and they just don't let you in.
That's not what this looks like.
In fact, a lot of people are always hung up
on the will of God.
They're like, oh, I just wanna be in the will of God,
the will of God, the will of God.
Well, I'll tell you one thing that I know
is definitely the will of God
and that's straight from scripture.
It says that it is his will that none should perish
but all should come to everlasting life.
That's his will.
If you ever wanna know what the will of God is,
it's that God so loved the world
that he sent his only son,
that through him, what?
We would be saved, not condemned.
Correct?
That's correct theology.
So if you're around so-called Christian people
that have a big, huge, long list of detractions
and things that they're using
to try to keep people away from the kingdom
because they're not ready yet
or they're not good enough
or they're living in some kind of sin
according to these people
and that disqualifies them,
that is not the heart of God
and that is not the mind of Christ.
It's not the mind of Christ.
And that's what I wanna talk about today.
I wanna talk about supernatural evangelism
and why would I talk about that
on one of our calls in our community?
Because a lot of your, come on,
a lot of your spouses are in this harvest.
God spoke that to me the other day
and I know that you've been going to all the church events
and you've been going to every spiritual community
that you can and all the church conferences
just trying to scout out your spouse
and I don't think you should stop going
and being with the brothers and sisters in Christ.
I think you should.
And I think it's possible
that you might meet someone amazing there
because you're in a supernatural time right now.
The grace of this movement for sure is on you
and I know that God has given us grace
to help people get married
and you're not here by accident.
So continue to do that
but I want you to know
that a lot of your spouses
and just people ask me all the time,
why are so many Christian people single?
And there's a huge long list of reasons why
and someday I can tell you all of those
but not on this call.
There's a huge long list of reasons why
that have to do with the times that we're living in
that have to do with warfare.
See, we forget that when we get a promise,
it has a process.
And that process includes warfare.
You guys forget about warfare when it comes to the things
that you believe that you should have that you don't have.
You forget that there is an entire kingdom around you,
okay, not the kingdom of heaven,
the kingdom of the world around you
that is trying to keep you from getting the tools
and resources that you need to live a victorious life.
But the reason why you forget about that,
you're just like, oh, little old me, little old me.
The opposing forces don't care about little old me.
That's not true.
You're powerful, you're important.
And the more that you know about the kingdom of heaven,
the more dangerous you become.
And so if you don't think that there's all kinds
of border bullies trying to keep you from passing over
into your little promised land of marriage and family
or financial breakthrough, whatever it is,
that you feel like you take three steps forward
and 10 steps back, then you're wrong.
You're like, well, Jackie, what do we do?
What we do is, is we stop focusing on ourselves
and we start focusing on this harvest.
Because God has already promised us
that if we'll be about his business,
that he'll be about ours.
If you will be about the business of the kingdom,
if you will be about the business of the father,
then he will be about yours.
And you guys, that looks a lot different than people think.
It's not a churchy thing to say.
I'm not asking you to go knock on doors and hand out tracts,
try to get people to come to church.
That's not what I'm talking about.
I'm talking about you being a Matthew five city
that cannot be hid, that lives on a hill
that shines brightly.
I want people to look at your lives
and know that this is what heaven looks like.
This is what it looks like to be a son and daughter of God
because you're so full of joy and peace
and love for other people.
We're gonna talk about that today.
Jesus wasn't trying to get us to go out
and do more miracles.
He was saying the greatest of these things would be love.
And I think that we can all agree
that if you still have love living in this world nowadays,
then that is a miracle.
And that means that God is in you and with you.
We're gonna talk about that today.
Being about his business, being that city,
Matthew five, go read it.
It's from the Sermon on the Mount.
Beautiful set of scriptures.
If you read in the message translation,
it says something really important.
It says, we're taking this thing public.
A lot of y'all are private Christians.
What does that mean?
That means that you go to church
with the people that you go to church with,
but when you're out and about in real life,
at your job, wherever, you know,
and I'm not talking about trying to shove the word Jesus
into every sentence that you speak to other people,
but you don't have a lot of grace for other people.
That's how you're a private Christian.
You don't have a lot of peace.
You don't have a lot of joy.
You're negative.
You're always complaining about something.
Look, nobody wants to get in on that life.
And that's what we have to do our heart work
and find out, hey, you know what?
Where did I lose my joy?
And where can I find it?
Father, we're asking that you restore the joy
of our salvation.
And a lot of times,
I'm just gonna tell it plain this morning,
and you guys know that that's just who I am anyway.
A lot of times that we have lost the joy
of our own salvation because we have believed a lie
about this list of rules and regulations
that we call Jesus.
Jesus is the law of love,
not this big list of do's and don'ts,
and you notice that every denomination of Christianity
has a whole different list.
These people over here are like, no, don't drink,
don't smoke.
These people over here are like, don't have sex.
These people over here, you know,
don't hang out with people that, you know,
aren't following Jesus.
But let me tell you one thing.
Christians have their own language
that nobody else understands.
We call it Christianese.
And the reason why is because you don't hang around
with anyone who doesn't go to church with you,
or doesn't go to a church,
or who doesn't go to your kind of church.
And you know what's wrong with that?
First of all, can't do the Great Commission that way,
because we have to do life with people.
One of my favorite quotes of all time,
and you would think because it's a favorite quote,
I would know who said it.
But let's just say that it was,
and someone can fact check it and put it up.
Let's say that it was St. Francis.
It could have been St. Augustine, not sure.
Just said this.
It said, preach the gospel, and if necessary, use words.
Which means what?
It means your life should tell a story
of the goodness of God.
Your life should tell a story of the love of God.
Your life should tell a story of the grace and mercy of God
without you ever having to preach at anyone
or put up scripture in someone's face.
You guys, that's not the way it works.
That's just the way that we've been doing things
in North America for the last however many years.
Trying to convict people of their sin.
Actually, the Bible doesn't ever say to do that.
That actually isn't part of it.
It says, be the good news.
Tell the good news to every person that you ever meet,
no matter how important they are
or in your mind, how unimportant they are.
That's what it says.
And then, yeah, it throws in some miracle signs and wonders
where it's like, heal the sick, raise the dead,
cast out demons.
That's all great, you guys.
But there's some denominations of Christianity
that have made that the main thing.
Y'all, this morning, we gotta get back
to keeping the main thing the main thing, and that's love.
Gotta get back to keeping the main miracle.
The main miracle, once again, in this world is love.
Let's keep the main thing the main thing.
And yeah, like I said,
I'm not against miracle signs and wonders.
Those are great, but we cannot have an encounter
of Christianity where we're just going around
and we don't love people,
but we're walking around Walmart
and we're trying to find someone
who's got some visible injury,
like a cast or one of those Oscar Mayer wiener buns
on their leg, you know,
because they've hurt their knee or whatever.
And then we can ask them if we can pray
for their leg to grow out or something.
Y'all know who you are, okay?
Love you, but no, that is not the Great Commission.
It isn't.
It's to love people.
It's to be kind to people, right?
That's what it is.
It's to preach the good news once again,
with your life and if necessary, use words.
And that requires us at some level to do life with people.
Life with people who are not following Jesus.
If all we ever do is just show up to rooms once a week
where a whole bunch of other Christ followers are
and we like shine our little flashlights at each other,
you know, the light belongs in the darkness.
This is not a flashlight show.
Like, look at me, I love Jesus, look at me.
No, you're in a room full of people that love Jesus.
Go out and show other people what Jesus looks like,
how he loves, how he forgives,
how he is there and never leaves.
Show other people that have never experienced that,
show them that.
All right, I wanna give you a couple of scriptures here.
1 Peter 4, 17.
It basically just says there's gonna come a time
when the family of God is gonna have to go first.
There's coming a time when God's judgment
is gonna come to the earth.
And when people hear judgment,
especially if you come from a Pentecostal background,
you start thinking hellfire and brimstone
and the rapture and all kinds of stuff.
No, that's not what this is talking about.
It's talking about, you know,
there are things that are still happening on the earth
that are part of the curse
instead of part of the ministry of re-reconciliation.
And so those things are gonna start falling apart
so that better things can fall together.
And when they start falling apart
so that better things can fall together,
you know, we have to be a part of that.
We wanna be a part of that from the very beginning.
We wanna be a part of that.
Please make sure your phones are muted, okay?
And so somebody's gotta go first.
Somebody's gotta volunteer to have their own life inspected
for, you know, living lower than you need to,
living lesser than you should.
Have our own lives inspected for whether or not
we're living that good, good life, the good, good life,
where we're prosperous,
where we're full of joy and peace and love, right?
1 Peter 4, 17.
And it goes on to say that
if the family of God doesn't go first,
then there's no hope for anyone else.
What hope is there for anyone else
if there's no prototype,
if there is no example?
Y'all hear?
Nod your head if you're still listening
or if I lost you somewhere along this windy road here.
Okay.
So guys, what's a prototype?
It's a remnant.
What's a remnant?
All of you that sew,
all of you that do any kind of quilting,
you know what I'm talking about.
A remnant is just enough fabric
that's left of the original pattern
that you can use to now mass produce.
If you have one little shred of original pattern in fabric,
you can use that as a.
prototype, you can replicate it and mass produce it.
It's time for us to rise up as the remnant that's left in the earth.
Because if we go first, then there's hope for everybody else.
A lot of people are always looking for their purpose.
What's my purpose?
I'll go ahead and give you a blanket statement of what your purpose is.
And this applies to everyone, every Christ follower on the earth.
This is what your main purpose is.
And remember, we want to keep the main thing, the main thing.
And for those of you that are already disconnecting, cause you're
offended, cause I said, Oh, it's not about encounters, miracle signs and
wonders rolling around in gold dust.
Guys, I know people that were actually raised from the dead when they were a
child that do not serve the Lord, that do not love God, that do not know God,
that were never discipled, they, they were a participant in one of the biggest
miracles that you can imagine.
They were laid out.
They were dead.
The coins were on their eyes already.
God used a passerby that was filled with compassion when they, when he heard
that this family had a death and that their child who was nine or 10 years old
had died and he stopped and he went in and he began to hug the child that was
laid out for the showing and she came back to life and I know, I know who she
is, she's, well, she's no longer alive again, but I knew who she was when she
was alive, but she wasn't a Christ follower after that you would think, Oh,
wow, if you got raised from the dead, then you would definitely follow Jesus.
Right?
No.
If you were loved by God, fully loved without any small prints, without any
exceptions without, well, he'll love you, but you got to get this first.
You got to do that first.
If you're fully loved by God, without any of that, then that is
when you would follow Jesus.
I'm going to talk about that.
So we have one purpose, all of us.
And what is that?
It's to show this world, what it looks like to be a son and daughter of God.
It's to show this world, what God looks like to show this world, what heaven
looks like, and not just the miracle signs and wonders part of it.
If you didn't know this already, then you haven't been in this community very long,
but I'm going to go ahead and repeat it here.
And that is all God ever wanted was a family, this entire thing, all of it at
the end of it is going to be about, did you love all of it at the end of it
is going to be about family.
My daughter yesterday, she's off in California.
She's at school.
She's having a hard time.
She's struggling with anxiety.
Different things are happening.
And late at night, last night, she called me.
She said, mom, I'm sorry.
I know you're so busy.
And I said, Hey, I'm going to do this and that for you.
And she said, mom, I know you don't have time to do that.
I said, if I don't have time to do this, what do I have time to do?
If I lead all these people and I help them restore their lineages and legacies,
but I don't minister to the needs of my own family, what purpose would I have
served, what purpose would I have served?
And so many people do that.
You know, there's so many orphans in the name of the Lord.
They run off and they're trying to save the world.
And their own family is lost somewhere in the gutter, hurting.
Does that make any sense to anyone?
And I understand that there's times when we can't help our family and we feel
helpless, but that's when God will send someone else as we help someone else's
family member, God will send someone else to our family member, right?
But in this instance, I can help my daughter and I will help my daughter.
So we have one purpose and that is to show this world what it looks like
to be the family of God and families of God.
And so we're going to do that.
We're going to do that.
To show this world what it looks like to be the family of God and
family is all God ever wanted.
And if you like me, you're part, you've been part of a origin family that you
have to keep a safe distance from because they're unsafe people, then you
continue to pray and intercede for them.
You watch God do what he can do.
He will send a missionary.
He will send a voice to them.
That's not yours because prophets have no honor in their own country
and among their own kin folk.
We know that for sure.
But I will tell you when my brother was roaming the streets, homeless,
completely, you know, had a psychotic break, mentally ill, all the
things for 20 something years.
Guys, I never knew where he was every year.
So he would hop up and call me and I would find out he's still
live and he's okay or whatever.
But what I would do and what God would allow me to do is I would run into all
kinds of young men that were in distress.
Daniel and Caleb and, you know, my brother's name is Jacob Daniel.
All of them would have these Bible names too, but I would run into them.
I'd be walking downtown Austin on sixth street and I would see some young man,
20 years old, drunk out of his mind, laying on the ground, not homeless, but
obviously putting himself in a permission and a position of vulnerability to be
robbed, who knows what.
You know, drinking like that, laid out on the street, you know, getting, you know, picking
him up, cleaning him up, putting him in a hotel room, going on to, you know, help him
because he had a horrible addiction, help him with that and you know, get with his parents,
you know, contact his mom who hadn't heard from him forever.
She didn't know if he was dead or alive.
What was I doing?
I was helping someone else's son, someone else's brother, someone else's uncle, someone
else's daughter, whatever, but usually it was men at this time because I couldn't help
my brother.
I felt, I felt helpless to help Jake.
So I just said to God, I said, listen, I can't help Jake.
I don't know where he is, but you know, I will help anyone that you put in my path.
And as I help these young men, you will send someone to help my brother.
And God did.
He put them in my path, driving down the road, lost trying to make it to a prayer meeting.
It's like five degrees below zero in Columbus, Ohio in the wintertime.
And there's a young man walking down the side of the road in the country, y'all with no
coat on.
I pull over, he gets in.
I was like, I was like, look, what's going on?
He's like, Oh, I just had to get out of where I was.
He said, I just had to leave.
And I ran out without my coat and you know, I need to get to my cousin's house.
And I said, look, I got to go to this prayer meeting.
I got to go to this place.
I'm late.
I said, and I'm lost.
I said, but when I find it, I'm going to go there.
I'm going to be there for about an hour.
And then when it's over with, I'll take you to your cousin.
So he agreed to go with me.
And guess what?
I took him right back to the house that he ran out of.
And why did he run out of that house?
Because his dad had brought him to a prayer meeting because he had just gotten out of
jail and he's only 19 years old and he was on the wrong road and his dad had brought
him there.
And his conviction of the Holy spirit was so strong, not of his sin, but of his need
to surrender his life to God that he ran out of the house, even forgot his coat behind.
Then God sent me to take his little booty right on back.
When I pulled up in the driveway of that place, that kid's eyes got as big, as big as they
could be.
And he was like, Whoa, Whoa, wait.
He's like, you're going here.
And I was like, yeah.
And he's like, this is where I just left.
And I was like, no kidding.
I said, interesting.
I said, I guess God wants you to stay here, doesn't he?
And he was like, I guess so.
So he went in, he surrendered his life.
I'm happy to say that that young man is a minister of the gospel.
He serves the Lord to this day.
And guess what?
Just a few years later, his precious father passed away, but he got to see his son saved.
He got to see his son safe.
I know we use this word, save, save, not save.
I believe that you're either a believer or you're pre-believer and there's no other category.
Why?
Because the word of God says that he has planted a seed in the heart of every single person
that he is, that he is.
You guys, a lot of those seeds need watered.
They just need watered.
A lot of people have seeds in them.
I mean, everyone has a seed in them, but a lot of people have even more seed than that.
They've had little, little touches of heaven throughout their life, but no one explained
it to them.
God was talking to them, but there was no one there to interpret.
And God wants to bring them across your path.
He does.
And we're going to activate this at the end.
So don't leave.
We're going to activate this at the end.
So I was able to pick that kid up the side of the road and I was able to take him back
there.
And guess what?
Every time I would talk to my brother, Jacob, he would tell me about the kindness of some
stranger, someone who gave him a meal, someone who gave him a ride.
His bike broke down in the middle of nowhere, his bicycle that he was riding.
And the nearest place where he could get it fixed was hundreds of miles away.
And someone just pulled over on the side of the road and picked him up.
And people don't pick up hitchhikers anymore unless they're crazy.
And they picked him up and they took him all the way to where he needed to go.
Things like that happened over and over and over and over again.
So for those of you that feel so devastated about your family and you know they won't
listen to you, it's okay.
They'll listen to someone and God knows who.
Because God knows who they are, where they are.
He knows what they need and he knows how to get it to them.
But guess what?
You are something that someone needs.
When I say that all the time, I was what Candace needs.
And if you haven't heard the story of Candace, it's in some of the teachings somewhere in
your portal.
You'll eventually hear the story.
I can't tell it today.
But I was the help.
There was a need and I was the help that God was sending.
And you are the help that God is sending.
And remember, what we do for others, God helps make happen for us.
I believe that there are spouses in this harvest, lots of them.
Lots of them.
So we have to be about the kingdom.
Business that God has put us on earth to do. The only reason that you're still on earth
Is to show this world what it looks like to be a son daughter of God to invite other people into the family
To save them a seat at the table. That is why we're still here. That is our purpose
Doesn't matter how much money you make it doesn't matter what you do for a living if it doesn't all lead back to the kingdom
Then you wasted your life
You wasted your life
If
God called you to be a lawyer or schoolteacher. That is to show those
Metrons those spheres of influence what it looks like to be a child of God
All of it has to come back to what's eternal
And the only thing that's in eternal friends as people the only thing that's going to be in heaven is people
It
Heaven's move-in ready. You don't got to bring your nice furniture there. You don't got to bring your car there
You don't got to bring your nice clothes that you've compiled there. It is move-in ready. It's all-inclusive resort
Okay, you don't take anything with you except you and the other people that you invited to the party
Come on, that's the only thing that happens
And
I'm about to be 50 years old and I have never been more cognizant of time
we get a limited amount of time in this earth suit on this planet and
We have to be about the business of the kingdom and the things that you want and not just that spouse
But the other things that you want guess what they're in that harvest
The answers to your prayers and even your problems are in the form of other people God is the source
Yes, but he is the head of the human resource department
And so if you've been praying for breakthrough in any area of your life
God has heard those prayers and he has sent the answer in the form of a person
Case in point me little Jackie D. You're like, oh god. I'm so tired of being single
Lord I just want to be married. He's like enter Jackie. Hello
Do I have a word for you? I just feel like what is telling the VeggieTales VeggieTales. Okay, so
Let's talk about that
thing that Jesus said
To his disciples when they were like, oh miracle signs wonders. Whoa, so cool
He was like greater than these things will you do because they were watching Jesus do all this really cool stuff and they were like
Whoa?
Greater than this greater than these things that I'm doing healing the sick
Causing blind eyes to open lame legs to walk
Raising the dead casting out demons what greater than these things will you do because I go to my father
You guys was he talking about better dead raisings? Oh, this person is just a little more dead than the person that Jesus raised
No y'all
He was talking about what does the Bible say? The greatest of these things are love
Three things are eternal faith hope and love and the greatest of these things is love
when he said greater than these things will you do he was saying you will love and
He was prophesying. He was saying there's gonna come a time. That's so dark
so evil
So disconnected so divisive but in the midst of all of it, you're gonna still love
that's gonna be the miracle of
the future
Because remember the Bible says that evil will
Evil will just abound so much. It'll be so prevalent that people's love would wax cold
People's love would wax cold. And so that means that as people's love is waxing cold people don't care. They're desensitized
They hear about people being murdered and killed and mass shootings are like, oh well
Guess someone better know something about that, you know go on with their lives
But then there's this passionate people group in the earth that still care
About the plight of others that still have empathy
That still have compassion
Did you guys know the word compassion means to step into or enter into the suffering of another with them?
That are willing to sit down in the suffering
You're not suffering but you're willing to get into the suffering of someone else with them and suffer with them
Love them
through those dark nights of the soul
Compassion is a form of love said that Jesus had compassion on them. He was moved with compassion. He felt their suffering. He felt it
There's a group of people on the earth that are not going to turn a blind eye
They're not
Because they're full of the love of God. They're full of the Spirit of God
We don't do this on our own you guys. It's not our human love that causes us to do this
It is the Holy Spirit that lives within us,
that causes us to do this.
John 13, this is one of Jesus' last prayers
before he was crucified.
He said, make them one as we are one.
He's talking to Father God.
Make them, my followers, make them one as we are one,
so that when they have love for one another,
they will know, they that see them will know
that I was your son and that they are my disciples.
You guys, it says right here,
there's gonna be one litmus test
when people are watching us
of whether or not Jesus was the son of God.
It says, by us having love for one another,
we are going to prove to people that Jesus was here.
How are you?
Jesus was here.
He was here.
He lived.
He died for us.
How do we prove that to people?
By our love, by our love.
You guys all know, some of you came in those ads.
I started running ads just recently.
At the end of 2023, I started running my first ads.
I was no longer on the radio anymore,
and it was necessary because God said,
I want you to throw out nets.
Throw out nets and bring them in and let me sort them out.
Guys, that's actually a scripture.
Jesus said, throw out the nets.
It was a parable that he was telling.
And he said, at the end of the age,
he said, the angels will throw out the nets.
He said, and just like the fishermen that come in,
they bring in their nets.
They're not discriminating against fish.
They're not pole fishing.
So I asked my ad guy, I said,
hey, I said, how are we gonna do this?
He goes, well, we're not gonna pole fish.
I said, what's pole fishing mean?
He said, pole fishing is when you spend a lot of money
to get a very, very qualified lead,
someone who is your ideal audience,
but it takes a lot of money to get there.
He said, but what we're just gonna do
is we're just gonna put out an APB,
an all points bulletin, a big net,
and anyone who wants to come will come.
It doesn't mean that they're gonna join.
It doesn't mean that they're gonna be interested
in what you have to say.
He said, but in that group of people,
there will be people that are ready
for the message that you're carrying.
And that's what Jesus did, right?
He wasn't pole fishing.
Every once in a while,
every once in a while,
he stopped and had the conversation with the one
because he knew that they were marked by heaven,
whether it was the kiosk,
whether it was the woman at the well,
but for the most part, he was throwing out a net.
Whosoever will, come on.
Whoever's hungry, come on.
Whoever's weary and heavy laden with what?
The law, with the rules and the regulations
and wants the freedom of the law of love in life
that wants to come into the kingdom
and come out of the religious synagogues, come.
Come.
Throwing out the nets
because Jesus said in that parable,
the angels are gonna throw out the nets.
It's gonna be this great harvest.
And once again, I believe that we're part of that.
I believe that we're part of that net throwing out.
And for those of you that are like,
oh yeah, man, we need to learn
how to work with the angels.
Yeah, angels are on assignment in your life
every single day.
And if you want to work with the angels,
then work with God because the angels work for him.
You don't have to figure out
how to communicate to your angels
because they work for God.
And so you need to figure out how to communicate with God
and receive communication from God.
And you do that through speaking his word.
You want to activate the angels in your life?
Come into agreement with the word of God out loud.
That's what activates them.
That's what commands the angels
is when they hear the voice of the creator
coming out of you.
Some of you need some surelys in your life.
Surely the Lord will show up.
Surely the Lord will deliver me.
Surely the righteous will not be.
Surely the righteous will not be forsaken.
You got to start coming to agreement with heaven.
Heaven, heaven, heaven.
So we're not pole fishing, you guys.
We're net fishing.
We're throwing out a net.
And you know what?
We're going to let God sort them out.
Don't you sort them out.
Don't you say, oh, this one right here
doesn't look that healthy.
This one right here looks too dirty.
This one's missing a fin.
Oh, no.
This one looks diseased.
No, that's not your job.
God says that God looks on the inside.
He sees the heart.
We're the ones that judge books by the cover.
God is the one that sees the inside
and he will let you see the inside too
if you will allow him to.
That is high level discernment.
That's what discernment is.
Discerning the hearts of people,
whether their hearts,
regardless of what their actions are doing,
regardless of what their outside looks like,
there could be seed in there that just needs to be watered.
Now, a lot of you are like,
Jackie, are you giving us permission to missionary date?
You guys, this is not about dating.
This is about an assignment that you have been given
the moment that you said, yes,
I surrender, Jesus is my Lord and Savior.
This is an assignment that we all have,
and that's to live out loud,
to show people what the kingdom of God looks like
through our lives.
You guys, we're not gonna do it perfectly,
but if you follow after the spirit every day,
if you get up, I know this is Supernatural Saturday,
but if you get up every day and you lean into heaven,
then you're more likely to follow after the spirit
and not the flesh that day.
You're more likely,
I'm not gonna say you're for sure going to,
but you're more likely to.
From the moment that your feet hit the ground in the morning,
there's all kinds of things that are coming against us
from the opposing forces,
trying to keep us from focusing on that assignment.
All kinds of distractions, all kinds of disruptions,
all kinds of everything.
Amen?
We all know it, it's true.
Amen?
We all know it, it's true.
It's true, it's true.
Okay, let's keep going.
So God's gathering, you guys,
he's gathering the creatives, the misfits,
the rebels of religion.
The people that you may have thought,
yeah, they don't want any of this.
They don't want God.
No, they don't want religion.
They don't want religion.
They do want God,
but someone somewhere along their life told them that,
hey, this is what God looks like,
and they didn't want that.
They didn't want an angry God, a hateful God,
a God that was waiting around with a clipboard,
just waiting to cross them off
as soon as they did something wrong,
waiting to cross them off,
cross them off the list.
They didn't want that.
And you guys, honestly, who would want that?
Let's just recap here for a second.
Say that you're a pre-believer, okay?
Some of you were raised in church.
You don't even remember when you were a pre-believer.
You've just believed Jesus all your life,
and that's amazing.
But a lot of us, we were raised by wolves in the desert
or in the wilderness, the woods, okay?
And we remember the moment that we found out
about the good news in Jesus.
A lot of us were adults when that happened.
I was.
And there were seeds, though.
There were seeds in me.
I can't lie.
There were seeds in me.
They never got watered, but they were there.
And so when finally I had that,
because remember the Bible says one plants, one waters,
and I, the Lord, give the increase, right?
He causes that acceleration of growth to happen.
So I remember when that happened.
But quite frankly, up until the point
when I had an intersection with Jesus, the real Jesus,
and why do I say the real Jesus?
Because there were plenty of times before that,
because my grandma was in this very religious denomination,
that I had had people come to me and say things
that I'm sure that they meant well.
I'm sure that they meant well.
They were just telling me,
guys, whoever God is to you, he will be through you.
And they believed that God was hard.
He's a hard taskmaster.
He was a judger.
He was a condemner.
And so they would come and they would try to scare me
into surrendering to God.
Oh, you're gonna go to hell,
or you're gonna this, or you're gonna that,
or even calling you names, you're a heathen,
or you're a whore.
Guys, just so you know, this is not evangelistic.
It's not, it doesn't work.
And if you can scare someone
into getting in a church pew somewhere,
very quickly, because love is not the thing
holding them there, it's not sustaining them there,
it's fear, very quickly, they're gonna be gone again.
Until the next moment that now they're scared.
So recap with me.
Who would want to surrender their life
to someone who is mean, and vengeful,
and antagonistic, petty?
This is the way a lot of religions make God to sound.
Who's selfish.
I mean, let's just face it.
A lot of people make God sound like a straight up narcissist.
I am God.
And he made this world,
and he put all of us little minions on it
to do his bidding, and his will,
and all he wants all day long is to be worshiped.
You guys, that sounds scary.
My favorite are the people that are like.
Yeah, we get to heaven, we're just gonna worship God
all day long for eternity.
I'm like, what?
That's a long eternity.
That's not what it looks like.
You got God is love.
He doesn't just have love, he is love.
And we have to represent him that way.
He's full of grace, he's full of mercy,
he's full of patience.
People are like, well, what about the Old Testament?
You are not rightly dividing the scriptures.
You are not understanding what's happening there.
Trust me, I had all those questions too,
and I don't have time to do a theological discussion
about the nature of God this morning.
But I promise that if we're not full of grace
and hope and joy, if we don't believe that God is with us
and for us and that life is for us,
if we don't believe those things,
then we will never be able to convey those things
to other people successfully.
Whoever God is to us, he will be through us.
He will.
So there are all these people,
and this is where I wanted to get to today,
that are marked by heaven, you guys.
They already belong to the shepherd.
They already belong to the good shepherd.
They're marked by heaven.
They had some sort of encounter.
They didn't even know what it was.
They couldn't explain it.
They might've even been a child.
And it's time for us to harvest them first, okay?
Because they're the harvesters
that are gonna work with us in the fields.
And so we have to harvest the harvesters.
Those are leaders in the body of Christ.
Those are our future spouses.
Matthew 13 talks about the nets.
Matthew 13, I think that I wrote this in my notes here
because you guys know that the scripture
about the vineyard and the 11th hour workers.
So these are the people that we're talking about.
So these workers are just standing around in the marketplace
and no one has hired them, right?
And the master of the house, which is the typology of Jesus,
he comes and says,
hey, why aren't you guys out there
working with the rest of them?
I'm willing to pay you the same,
even the same as the people that have worked all day
if you go now.
And they're like, well, we haven't gone
because no one saw any value in us.
Why is that?
Because you guys,
the people that were the skilled laborers in the vineyard,
let's call them the professional Christians.
Because this is an analogy
to reaping the harvest of souls, right?
The vineyard is the harvest of souls.
They get put out there first, right?
And a lot of us, we just sit idly by
and we let the professionals do the job.
Come on, someone, this is for you.
Oh, let the preachers do it.
Let the prophets do it.
Let the song people do it.
Those of you that go to regular traditional church services
where there's a platform and the special people,
the skilled laborers are up there reaping the harvest,
right?
That's what this parable is saying.
These people, they're standing around.
No one saw any value in us because we're not skilled.
Jesus is like, you're my favorite kind.
Get out there.
You can do more through your inexperience
than people can do through their professional Christianity.
You can do more through just testifying
about what God's done for you.
You know, when you were tore up from the floor up,
busted and disgusted,
than people can do in a lifetime of platform ministry.
So he sends them out.
Because why?
Because it's time.
Doesn't matter if you're not skilled.
You don't have to have the words.
The Bible promises you that he'll give you the words
when you open your mouth.
It's time.
We gotta go.
2024 is the table for more.
Guys, we're not gonna build bigger walls
to keep people out.
Bigger rules, you know, bigger prerequisites
of what they need to do in order to come into our life
or come into the kingdom.
We're gonna build bigger tables.
Imagine big banquet tables full of food for the hungry.
It's time.
You guys, we're really quick to discard people,
really quick to write people off.
I want you to know something really important.
I'm gonna try not to cry.
I was a discarded fish.
I was a discarded fish, y'all.
By humans, not by God.
I was a discarded fish.
When I was young and my family was so broken and troubled,
you guys, I was in a foster care system
that was attached to a church that had a school.
And I went to that school when I was living
in that foster home.
And you guys, I smoked cigarettes.
Oh my God, just burned me at the stake.
I was 16 years old.
And the pastor of that church told my mother,
I remember I lived in a foster home
and the foster home was kicking me out
and my mother had been contacted
and she wasn't gonna take me back.
But that pastor told my mother, pastor of a church,
you need to forget about this one.
She's a lost cause.
I don't know if that man's still alive. I blessed him if he is. He obviously was looking through
the filter of religion, and I'm sure through the filter of religion, I look like a lost cause.
But here's what I got to say. How do you like me now? Come on.
I have probably won more souls to the Lord through my, you know, through my imperfect
efforts than that man ever did through his religious mindset. Come on. If it was a contest,
I'm winning. And that's all I know. You guys, it is not your job to judge other people
and their potential. Now someone's unsafe, obviously, you have to keep a clear safe
distance from them and just bless them and block them. We know that. But just because
they don't have the Christian ease and they don't know the scriptures that you know,
it doesn't mean that they're not marked by heaven. Look for fruit. You guys, that seed
in there always bears some fruit. Are they kind? Do they show compassion? You know, are they patient?
Right? You guys, we don't really evangelize people by sitting them down necessarily and
teaching them a Bible study. Sometimes we just, we just, we get them by loving them, right?
Just loving them. There's so much more here. And I wish I could say the rest of it. Maybe we'll
have a longer session. Maybe we'll continue tomorrow night. We're going to have a prophetic
night, but there are three nets that we need to throw out. And I get to get this thing because
I want to activate us. A Matthew five net, you guys, here are the nets. You guys, it's time to
throw out the nets. And these are the nets that I want you to throw out. In fact, there's four
Matthew five. What is that net? Just you shining. You're a city that set on a hill that cannot be
hid. Keep open house that that same scripture. If you read it in the, in the, in the message
translation, it says, you know, we're taking this thing public. Be generous with your lives. You
guys be generous with your lives. Don't keep yourself, hold yourself back to just a, you know,
us for a no more that go to your church, be generous with your lives, have some friends
that don't profess Christ. They're not going to lead you astray. If you love Jesus, come on,
don't be scared of that kind of stuff. Be willing to share your life and be generous with others.
That's the first net. There are people that need you. And you just been hanging around with just
a bunch of other Christians all the time, Matthew 13, and you guys, your inner, inner circle,
your confidence, the people that leading guide and give you counsel. Yes. Those people need to
be Christ followers. I'm talking about people that you just go to the game with, right?
You just go shopping at the mall with, this is what I'm talking about. Matthew 13,
throw out the nets. Let God sort them out later. This is that scripture where he's like, Hey,
just throw out the nets, pull them in. Let me sort them out later. Everyone throw out the nets.
Luke five. This is, this is where the, I think this is where they had been fishing all night
and they had caught nothing. And then Jesus was like, Hey, put your nets down on the other side.
This is where God puts his super on your natural. You've been doing a certain activity over and over
again with no results, but it's time for what it's time for God to put his super on your natural.
It's time for you to listen to the direction of the Lord in that area so that you can be abundant.
So try again, but this time don't try harder, try softer.
Okay. And there's also a premise in that net that we have to have the collaborations of others
because if God puts a super, not super on our natural, we're going to have such great results
that we're going to need to partner with others to pull in that harvest. So you guys don't be
afraid to partner up with other people. A lot of us are like really lone Rangers. We've got to do
it on our own. No collaborate with others for the harvest. Cause remember their nets began to break
and they had to call the other fishermen that were in that region to come and to, and to get their
boats in, you know, to, to get their boats there too, to, to take the fish. Cause there's a really
great depiction of that in one of the seasons of the chosen when Matthew, I think it's the first
season of the chosen, maybe second, third episode when, when Peter gets called and that they show
that exact Luke five parable right there. Okay. John 13, this is another net love one another.
Then you'll be my true disciples. We'll be known by our love. We're going to be known by our love.
Yeah. Cheat sheet, right? What's the cheat sheet of loving? You know, it's not about how you walk
with the greatest about how you walk with the broken. Jesus washed the feet of all of his
disciples, but even his betrayer, right? He extended grace. He extended love. And remember,
this is not an indictment this morning. Don't hear religion. If you hear religion,
then that's what's wrong. This is an invitation.
so many missing resources that are coming in this harvest, including love stories, and it's time for
us to participate. You guys, bring people to this community. If you're like, well, where should I
bring them to? Like, how am I harvesting them? Bring them here. You guys, you have an amazing,
you know, kind of like sneaky Jehovah sneaky thing that you can use, and it's singleness.
People are miserable out there. They're lonely. They're miserable. A lot of them don't have
families, so they don't even have that to lean into. Bring them here. Say, oh, hey, I'm part of
this amazing singles community. You know, it's great. It's been a life changer for me. Bring
them here. Harvest them here. They might not be your husband or wife, but they might be somebody
else's husband or wife that's in this community. We've had so many people in this community have
success and get married because one of their brothers and sisters in this community brought
that person here, made that introduction. Come on, let's do that. All right, here's your
activation. Here's your assignment. Here's your mission. Should you choose to accept it? Are you
ready? Take your phone and scroll. Go to your contacts. You guys, we all have lots of contacts
in our phone that we put in there, and we don't know those people. They got in there somehow.
You know, I have hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of contacts, and if I don't even put
a little memo about who the person is, their name means nothing to me. Their name means nothing,
and I have no idea who they are. And so I want you to scroll through your phone,
and I don't mean look at it. I want you to go to the contact page and just, if you have an iPhone,
I don't know how droids works. Y'all are on your own that have droids, because I don't know how
that works. But go to your iPhone, go to your mess, go to your contacts, and I want you to
close your eyes and just flip your finger on the screen, you know, scroll, and then put your finger
down, and whatever name your finger is on, I want you to text that person. And if it ends up being
a landline, you can't text them, then do it again. Scroll with your eyes closed and find someone,
until you find someone you can actually text message. And I want you to text them and just
say, hey, you know, I was just thinking about you today. You came on my mind, and, you know,
it doesn't matter if you don't know the person. And just say, and then just give them encouragement.
Just encourage them. Just say, you know, I hope you're having a great day. I hope you have a
great day today. If it's simple like that, if you're a more prophetic person, you know, you can
lean into God for a word. You can lean into the Spirit for a word for them. But just a simple, hey,
I hope you're having a great day, thinking about you. If it's someone that you know, if it's not
someone you know, say, hey, you might not know me, but you were on my phone, and your name popped up
today. And I just want to let you know that God loves you. You guys, it's as simple as that. It's
as simple as that. It's as simple as that. That message should change someone's day. They could
change their month. It could change their life, because they know that God sees them. And trust me,
God will let your little finger do the walking right to the person who needs that message that
will be a life changer for them. Amen? This is how we do it. This is how we throw our nuts out
into that harvest. All right. So, Father God, I thank you. I thank you for this word today.
We receive it. We believe it. We know that we are the hands and feet of Jesus. We are the mouth.
We're the ears. We're the eyes. We know that you're guiding us. You're leading us. As we follow
after your spirit, you are leading us to the hungry. You're leading us to the hurting. You're letting
us be the words of life for someone. And Father, we just thank you for that assignment. And we ask
God that you would continue to give us the grace to be soul winners, the grace to be soul winners,
the grace to point people to the direction of the finished work of the cross, the love of God,
you that was shown through your son on that cross. And so, Lord, we thank you for that.
We thank you for this great harvest and all the people that are coming through it. We thank you
for the future spouses that are in that harvest, the partners for your children so that they can
go forward and they can further your kingdom. We thank you for those partners, Lord. We thank you
that they will accelerate quickly in the ways of the Lord. They will accelerate quickly, God, in
love and in grace and in understanding. They will accelerate in the word quickly, Lord. They will
not stay babies in the faith for long. They will raise up fast. And so, Lord, we thank you for them.
We thank you for all the other resources that are coming in the form of people, all the
collaborations, all the partnerships, all the kingdom businesses, all the things that are needed,
the healings, the deliverances, all the things that are coming in the form of the gifts and talents
and things that you've placed in these people that have not yet come into the family of God.
And so, we thank you for it in Jesus' name. Amen. All right. I love y'all. Go with God. Have a
supernatural night. Guys, tomorrow night, prophetic night, prophetic words, activations, fun time.
Our whole prayer team will be there. Hope to see you soon. Bye.
