WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.940
We're laying a foundation for the activation tonight.

2
00:00:02.940 --> 00:00:05.260
The main activation, if you're taking notes,

3
00:00:05.260 --> 00:00:06.100
writing something down,

4
00:00:06.100 --> 00:00:09.700
this is what you're going to be activated in this evening.

5
00:00:09.700 --> 00:00:13.600
And that is speaking the language of heaven.

6
00:00:14.820 --> 00:00:15.980
And there's a couple of different ways.

7
00:00:15.980 --> 00:00:17.340
This is the only ways, but there's,

8
00:00:17.340 --> 00:00:21.260
I just wanna capitalize on three main ways that we do that.

9
00:00:21.260 --> 00:00:23.260
We do that, number one, again, like,

10
00:00:23.260 --> 00:00:26.220
that's not the only way, but these are three main ways.

11
00:00:26.220 --> 00:00:29.540
We meditate on the word and we speak his word.

12
00:00:29.540 --> 00:00:32.420
What does his word actually say?

13
00:00:32.420 --> 00:00:34.020
I'm talking about the Logos word.

14
00:00:34.020 --> 00:00:36.360
I'm talking about the actual scripture.

15
00:00:37.220 --> 00:00:39.420
What does the word say specifically?

16
00:00:39.420 --> 00:00:43.500
For instance, nothing is impossible.

17
00:00:44.760 --> 00:00:46.920
Nothing, with God, all things are possible.

18
00:00:48.220 --> 00:00:50.460
Nothing is impossible to them who believe.

19
00:00:50.460 --> 00:00:53.460
Those kinds of things, very specific Logos words

20
00:00:53.460 --> 00:00:57.080
that we can repeat and we can, we use.

21
00:00:57.080 --> 00:01:00.080
They're usually really broad wisdom statements

22
00:01:00.080 --> 00:01:03.080
and they can be applied to so many things, right?

23
00:01:03.080 --> 00:01:06.560
But sometimes just the word itself is just powerful.

24
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:10.120
One of my favorite words that the scripture says is that

25
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:15.400
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

26
00:01:16.380 --> 00:01:17.560
Great word.

27
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:19.560
So many different applications, right?

28
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:21.040
So there's the Logos word.

29
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:22.360
That's the meditating on the word.

30
00:01:22.360 --> 00:01:25.040
We gotta know what the word says first

31
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:26.860
before we can speak it.

32
00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:28.380
So you have to study the word

33
00:01:28.380 --> 00:01:29.900
and you have to meditate on the word

34
00:01:29.900 --> 00:01:32.780
in order to know what the word says, right?

35
00:01:32.780 --> 00:01:34.660
And then you can speak it.

36
00:01:34.660 --> 00:01:37.860
Oftentimes people memorize the word.

37
00:01:37.860 --> 00:01:39.940
The second one is the Rhema word,

38
00:01:39.940 --> 00:01:44.620
which is really the revelation of how that word

39
00:01:44.620 --> 00:01:47.620
is applied to our specific situation

40
00:01:48.460 --> 00:01:52.380
or how it's applied in the modern context.

41
00:01:52.380 --> 00:01:55.340
We understand when you're, if you're a student of the word

42
00:01:55.340 --> 00:01:56.580
or you're a student of scripture at all,

43
00:01:57.260 --> 00:02:01.220
you understand that context is very important, right?

44
00:02:01.220 --> 00:02:03.140
Sometimes you take an ancient word

45
00:02:03.140 --> 00:02:04.060
and you're trying to apply it.

46
00:02:04.060 --> 00:02:06.240
What does that mean in my modern world that I live in?

47
00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:08.500
Like, I understand that I wanna get to the truth of that.

48
00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:11.180
I wanna receive it, but I live in this modern world

49
00:02:11.180 --> 00:02:13.020
with these weird modern problems

50
00:02:13.020 --> 00:02:15.260
and I need to know how that applies.

51
00:02:15.260 --> 00:02:19.420
And so the Rhema of how God's word applies

52
00:02:19.420 --> 00:02:21.660
to the modern day situation is true.

53
00:02:21.660 --> 00:02:25.820
So we can say nothing is impossible to them who believe.

54
00:02:25.820 --> 00:02:29.300
Well, I believe that I can get a promotion at work.

55
00:02:29.300 --> 00:02:32.060
I believe that I can have a healing in my body.

56
00:02:32.060 --> 00:02:35.220
I believe I can have a breakthrough in my family.

57
00:02:35.220 --> 00:02:37.900
I believe, like see how nothing is impossible.

58
00:02:37.900 --> 00:02:41.900
Like you're looking at a situation that seemingly impossible

59
00:02:41.900 --> 00:02:44.020
because of all the things you calculate in your head,

60
00:02:44.020 --> 00:02:46.180
like, well, no, so-and-so would never do this

61
00:02:46.180 --> 00:02:47.220
and so-and-so would never do that,

62
00:02:47.220 --> 00:02:50.620
but my family's this and my body's this and my job.

63
00:02:50.620 --> 00:02:52.580
And I mean, it seems impossible,

64
00:02:52.580 --> 00:02:57.020
but the scripture says all things are possible with God.

65
00:02:57.020 --> 00:03:02.020
And then when you lay that over your specific situation,

66
00:03:02.060 --> 00:03:04.580
sometimes you get a Rhema understanding

67
00:03:04.580 --> 00:03:06.980
of how that word can work in your situation.

68
00:03:06.980 --> 00:03:10.860
So that's a Rhema word and the Spirit helps you with that.

69
00:03:10.860 --> 00:03:12.740
Holy Spirit helps you with that.

70
00:03:12.740 --> 00:03:16.380
And the third way that we want to activate you tonight

71
00:03:16.380 --> 00:03:18.100
is speaking the language of heaven,

72
00:03:18.100 --> 00:03:20.940
speaking in other tongues.

73
00:03:21.900 --> 00:03:25.340
Speaking in a heavenly language.

74
00:03:25.340 --> 00:03:27.300
Now, some of you do that already.

75
00:03:27.300 --> 00:03:29.260
Some of you have been activated in that.

76
00:03:29.260 --> 00:03:33.300
Some of you have been desiring to be activated that

77
00:03:33.300 --> 00:03:36.580
in a long time and it's never happened for you or whatever.

78
00:03:36.580 --> 00:03:39.300
Some of you may have just heard about this

79
00:03:39.300 --> 00:03:40.860
and that's something that you heard about,

80
00:03:40.860 --> 00:03:42.740
but you're not really sure.

81
00:03:42.740 --> 00:03:45.260
Some of you may feel even otherwise

82
00:03:45.260 --> 00:03:46.660
about speaking in tongues,

83
00:03:46.660 --> 00:03:50.740
but I'm here to tell you that it is a blessed gift

84
00:03:51.500 --> 00:03:54.820
of Holy Spirit to be able to speak in tongues

85
00:03:54.820 --> 00:03:56.460
because sometimes there's just things

86
00:03:56.460 --> 00:03:59.780
that you just can't articulate.

87
00:03:59.780 --> 00:04:04.420
And I've been speaking in tongues my whole life

88
00:04:04.420 --> 00:04:07.980
since I was the age, a very, very young age.

89
00:04:07.980 --> 00:04:11.500
And I tell you what, it is one of the ways

90
00:04:11.500 --> 00:04:14.180
that I can just focus in and go right in

91
00:04:14.180 --> 00:04:18.860
just to connecting with heaven and the language of heaven

92
00:04:18.860 --> 00:04:19.980
and the Spirit of heaven.

93
00:04:20.339 --> 00:04:23.340
Like what's happening in the spirit realm.

94
00:04:23.340 --> 00:04:25.900
That if you've been around believers

95
00:04:25.900 --> 00:04:27.780
or you've been around Christian tradition

96
00:04:27.780 --> 00:04:28.740
for any length of time,

97
00:04:28.740 --> 00:04:31.940
you understand there's a spirit world.

98
00:04:31.940 --> 00:04:35.700
There are things happening in the spirit, right?

99
00:04:35.700 --> 00:04:37.540
And lots of times the truth is

100
00:04:37.540 --> 00:04:40.700
is that things happen in the spirit first

101
00:04:40.700 --> 00:04:43.460
before they happen in the natural.

102
00:04:43.460 --> 00:04:46.660
And so if you wanna activate the spirit

103
00:04:46.660 --> 00:04:49.620
around what your circumstances are,

104
00:04:50.260 --> 00:04:52.420
then we have to have a connection point of that.

105
00:04:52.420 --> 00:04:54.300
And that's what Jesus did for us.

106
00:04:54.300 --> 00:04:56.860
Jesus provided the way, paid the price

107
00:04:56.860 --> 00:05:00.260
to set everything right, and then took off and said.

108
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:05.000
that, hey, I, John says in Matthew 3, he says,

109
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:08.960
I came to baptize, John the Baptist,

110
00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:12.220
I came to baptize you in water

111
00:05:12.220 --> 00:05:15.120
for the purposes of regeneration,

112
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:17.160
for the purposes of repentance.

113
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:22.800
But Jesus, once coming after me,

114
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:26.200
that he is baptizing you in Holy Spirit,

115
00:05:26.200 --> 00:05:28.920
in the Spirit and in fire.

116
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.360
How many of you need some spirit

117
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.880
and some fire in your situation?

118
00:05:36.880 --> 00:05:40.000
There's some things that need to be consumed

119
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:41.720
in your situation.

120
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:43.820
There's some things that need to be dealt with,

121
00:05:43.820 --> 00:05:45.800
with the power of the Spirit.

122
00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:47.800
And I'm telling you, one of the powerful ways

123
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.600
for you to be able to do that is to be activated

124
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:54.720
in your personal prayer language, okay?

125
00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:56.160
I don't want you to be concerned about that,

126
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:57.320
I don't want you to be scared about it,

127
00:05:57.320 --> 00:05:59.400
I don't want you to be anxious about it,

128
00:05:59.400 --> 00:06:02.520
I want you to just to be open and receive tonight

129
00:06:02.520 --> 00:06:04.640
in this activation and go, you know what?

130
00:06:04.640 --> 00:06:07.320
God, if this is for me, then I want it

131
00:06:07.320 --> 00:06:09.540
because I want everything that you have for me,

132
00:06:09.540 --> 00:06:12.240
so just be open to it tonight.

133
00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:13.680
And we're gonna have some activation more

134
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:14.680
in that a little bit later on.

135
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:17.640
But I just wanna tell you about Holy Spirit a little bit.

136
00:06:18.840 --> 00:06:22.880
We so, so, in the body of Christ,

137
00:06:22.880 --> 00:06:27.880
we so misunderstand, we underappreciate

138
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.600
who Holy Spirit is.

139
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:35.320
Guys, Holy Spirit is God to you right now

140
00:06:35.320 --> 00:06:37.240
in this day and age.

141
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:38.840
From a theological context,

142
00:06:38.840 --> 00:06:42.120
Holy Spirit is the manifested presence of God

143
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.680
at work in the earth today.

144
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:48.080
In the Old Testament, God physically manifested

145
00:06:48.080 --> 00:06:50.080
as a pillar of fire by night,

146
00:06:50.080 --> 00:06:54.580
as a cloud, a pillar of cloud by day and a fire by night.

147
00:06:54.580 --> 00:06:58.780
That was the literal manifested presence of God.

148
00:06:58.780 --> 00:07:01.260
When Jesus was alive on earth in the Gospels,

149
00:07:01.260 --> 00:07:05.140
it was Jesus manifested as a man, as a person

150
00:07:05.140 --> 00:07:09.840
in all of his humanness as the manifested presence of God.

151
00:07:09.840 --> 00:07:12.260
And then when he ascended and left,

152
00:07:12.260 --> 00:07:16.660
he allowed space for Holy Spirit to then come

153
00:07:16.660 --> 00:07:20.540
and to dwell inside the life of the believer.

154
00:07:20.540 --> 00:07:24.140
And so as you have activated your faith in Christ,

155
00:07:24.700 --> 00:07:26.460
in receiving the work of the cross

156
00:07:26.460 --> 00:07:29.100
and the blood that was shed and the price that was paid

157
00:07:29.100 --> 00:07:31.060
for your freedom and your salvation,

158
00:07:31.060 --> 00:07:33.140
your deliverance and all of the stuff,

159
00:07:34.060 --> 00:07:37.220
you have received the initial portion

160
00:07:37.220 --> 00:07:38.660
of Holy Spirit in your life.

161
00:07:38.660 --> 00:07:42.060
Your Holy Spirit has come to live on the inside of you

162
00:07:42.060 --> 00:07:44.280
and begin to be activated.

163
00:07:44.280 --> 00:07:45.980
But there is a certain baptism,

164
00:07:45.980 --> 00:07:50.980
there's a certain moment of empowerment

165
00:07:51.900 --> 00:07:55.700
that you can receive through the power of Holy Spirit

166
00:07:55.700 --> 00:07:57.180
for you to have a greater understanding

167
00:07:57.180 --> 00:07:59.660
of that being at work in your life

168
00:07:59.660 --> 00:08:02.300
and not just being laying dormant, right?

169
00:08:02.300 --> 00:08:04.420
So this is what tonight is about.

170
00:08:04.420 --> 00:08:08.060
It is the main activation of learning how

171
00:08:08.060 --> 00:08:11.760
to come into agreement with heaven

172
00:08:11.760 --> 00:08:14.940
and activate heaven in your life.

173
00:08:14.940 --> 00:08:15.780
Amen?

174
00:08:17.100 --> 00:08:18.060
This is so good.

175
00:08:18.060 --> 00:08:19.660
I'm telling you what, this is so powerful.

176
00:08:19.660 --> 00:08:20.980
This is so necessary.

177
00:08:20.980 --> 00:08:23.460
It's one thing to be saved and on your way to heaven.

178
00:08:23.460 --> 00:08:26.220
It's another thing to learn how to activate heaven

179
00:08:26.220 --> 00:08:27.600
in your life today.

180
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:29.960
Amen?

181
00:08:31.020 --> 00:08:32.900
The scripture says that we can have life

182
00:08:32.900 --> 00:08:34.360
and life more abundantly.

183
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:36.620
We can have heaven on earth.

184
00:08:36.620 --> 00:08:40.020
We can activate, we can reach over into the spirit realm

185
00:08:40.020 --> 00:08:42.539
and bring things into reality.

186
00:08:42.539 --> 00:08:45.180
I mean, I'm not talking about weird, crazy,

187
00:08:45.180 --> 00:08:48.160
sometimes it does seem a little weird.

188
00:08:48.160 --> 00:08:49.140
I'm not talking about weird.

189
00:08:49.660 --> 00:08:51.700
I'm just talking about normal things.

190
00:08:51.700 --> 00:08:55.100
Things that are on your heart,

191
00:08:55.100 --> 00:08:58.140
things that are on your mind that you're concerned about,

192
00:08:58.140 --> 00:09:03.140
that are important to you, all right?

193
00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:08.900
Holy Spirit, as established in chapter 12

194
00:09:08.900 --> 00:09:10.420
and chapter 14 of 1 Corinthians,

195
00:09:10.420 --> 00:09:13.180
is a distinct person of the Godhead.

196
00:09:13.180 --> 00:09:16.820
It is not the third, you know, watered down version of God.

197
00:09:17.580 --> 00:09:18.740
He is all God.

198
00:09:18.740 --> 00:09:19.620
He is a person.

199
00:09:19.620 --> 00:09:23.980
He is a member of the Trinity who operate in perfect unity

200
00:09:23.980 --> 00:09:25.900
and such unity and agreement

201
00:09:25.900 --> 00:09:28.140
that they constitute one Godhead.

202
00:09:28.140 --> 00:09:32.820
God the Father, Jesus the Son, God the Holy Spirit, amen?

203
00:09:32.820 --> 00:09:36.100
These co-equal, co-eternal with God the Father and the Son.

204
00:09:36.100 --> 00:09:40.140
There's personal attributes the Holy Spirit has.

205
00:09:40.140 --> 00:09:43.300
The Holy Spirit engages with the life of believers.

206
00:09:43.300 --> 00:09:45.660
There's even personal pronouns that are involved

207
00:09:45.660 --> 00:09:47.660
in scripture that we can see from this.

208
00:09:48.860 --> 00:09:50.580
The Holy Spirit is actively involved

209
00:09:50.580 --> 00:09:53.540
in the lives of believers in scripture.

210
00:09:53.540 --> 00:09:55.220
In Titus, he empowers for ministry.

211
00:09:55.220 --> 00:09:56.620
In John, he regenerates hearts.

212
00:09:56.620 --> 00:09:58.100
In Acts, he guides into truth.

213
00:09:58.100 --> 00:10:00.260
In John, he intercedes for us.

214
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.560
seeds for believers in Romans 8.

215
00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:03.920
There's all kinds of things.

216
00:10:03.920 --> 00:10:06.900
Holy Spirit is a distinct person who possesses

217
00:10:06.900 --> 00:10:09.600
intellect, emotions, and will.

218
00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:10.740
Amen?

219
00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:13.000
So the person and the power of Holy Spirit

220
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:15.240
is established well in Scripture.

221
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.560
And he brings into us for the life of the believer

222
00:10:18.560 --> 00:10:20.360
regeneration, indwelling.

223
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.160
He helps us to become sanctified,

224
00:10:22.160 --> 00:10:24.840
to walk in sanctification.

225
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:26.880
He empowers us to do the things that we

226
00:10:26.880 --> 00:10:29.040
don't feel like we can do in and of ourselves

227
00:10:29.040 --> 00:10:31.640
because we're walking in this flesh suit.

228
00:10:31.640 --> 00:10:32.720
Thank God.

229
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:36.200
There's things that I don't want to do that I do.

230
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:38.920
There's things that I do want to do that I don't do.

231
00:10:38.920 --> 00:10:40.640
But I use the power of Holy Spirit.

232
00:10:40.640 --> 00:10:42.320
I rely on the power of Holy Spirit

233
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:45.640
to sanctify me, to give the empower, to give me

234
00:10:45.640 --> 00:10:47.920
indwelling, give me endowment to be

235
00:10:47.920 --> 00:10:52.800
able to walk into those areas that I need help in.

236
00:10:52.800 --> 00:10:54.640
Right?

237
00:10:54.640 --> 00:10:56.800
So this is so powerful.

238
00:10:56.800 --> 00:11:00.760
And one of the other things is that Holy Spirit

239
00:11:00.760 --> 00:11:02.960
is your comforter, is your helper.

240
00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:06.320
This is one of my favorite ones, my attributes of Holy Spirit,

241
00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:10.720
is that he not only is a convictor of sin

242
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:15.880
for the unbeliever, but as you're a believer,

243
00:11:15.880 --> 00:11:19.720
he is a convincer of righteousness.

244
00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:22.760
That's so powerful.

245
00:11:22.760 --> 00:11:25.040
As an unbeliever, you need to be convicted of your sin.

246
00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:26.840
You need to understand the difference between what is

247
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:28.440
and what is not sin.

248
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:36.160
But as a believer, you need to be convinced over and over

249
00:11:36.160 --> 00:11:38.720
and over again of your righteousness,

250
00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:42.920
of who you really are in Christ, where your authority really

251
00:11:42.920 --> 00:11:48.160
is, what resources you have available to you because now

252
00:11:48.160 --> 00:11:51.320
you're connected to heaven.

253
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:53.320
That kind of convincing, that kind

254
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:55.200
of like, I am on your team.

255
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:56.080
You could do this.

256
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:57.120
I'm coaching you.

257
00:11:57.120 --> 00:11:58.200
I will help you.

258
00:11:58.200 --> 00:11:59.360
I will comfort you.

259
00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:00.960
I will teach you.

260
00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:03.680
I will echo the words of Jesus in your spirit

261
00:12:03.680 --> 00:12:06.560
and in your heart and your mind so that you can remember them

262
00:12:06.560 --> 00:12:09.280
and you can be empowered to go forth.

263
00:12:09.280 --> 00:12:13.160
That is the job and the role of Holy Spirit

264
00:12:13.160 --> 00:12:15.520
in the life of the believer.

265
00:12:15.520 --> 00:12:17.360
Amen?

266
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:20.480
So I just want to lay that foundation for you

267
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:23.080
today to understand that this is what you're

268
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:25.880
going to be activated in tonight.

269
00:12:25.880 --> 00:12:29.000
And that is an enduement of power.

270
00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:31.040
If you're open and receptive for it tonight,

271
00:12:31.040 --> 00:12:33.640
and even if you've had this moment of your life,

272
00:12:33.640 --> 00:12:37.040
you can be refreshed and renewed again tonight

273
00:12:37.040 --> 00:12:39.080
in this activation.

274
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:40.720
And I have some helpers that's going

275
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:43.000
to help me with this tonight.

276
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:46.360
And we're just going to allow God to just have his way.

277
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.720
So we're done kind of taking notes.

278
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:51.360
If you want to just sort of get in an attitude of like

279
00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.720
receiving, whatever that looks like, you can fold your hands.

280
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:55.720
You can close your eyes.

281
00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:56.920
You can open your hands.

282
00:12:56.920 --> 00:12:59.200
You can sort of just be receptive.

283
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:02.000
And just allow God to come into your space

284
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:04.400
and into your heart and into your mind

285
00:13:04.400 --> 00:13:08.040
and really just impact you tonight.

286
00:13:08.040 --> 00:13:11.600
Allow your life to be changed.

287
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:13.640
There isn't anybody on this Zoom call

288
00:13:13.640 --> 00:13:18.160
tonight that doesn't need their life to be changed or shifted

289
00:13:18.160 --> 00:13:19.640
in the right direction.

290
00:13:19.640 --> 00:13:22.840
We all need a difference.

291
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:25.080
We all need a different perspective.

292
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:27.160
We all need a revelation.

293
00:13:27.160 --> 00:13:28.880
We all need empowerment.

294
00:13:28.880 --> 00:13:32.040
We all need a shift.

295
00:13:32.040 --> 00:13:37.400
So we're all going to receive it as just as a body tonight.

296
00:13:37.400 --> 00:13:40.760
And there's going to be some individual ministry as well.

297
00:13:40.760 --> 00:13:46.200
So I want to introduce Tim Austin to you.

298
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:49.800
Tim is a friend of ours from our church.

299
00:13:49.800 --> 00:13:51.480
And of course, Sarah's on here as well.

300
00:13:51.480 --> 00:13:54.080
She's going to be helping activate

301
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:56.600
as the Holy Spirit leads.

302
00:13:56.600 --> 00:14:00.760
But Tim is a brother of the Lord who attends our church.

303
00:14:00.760 --> 00:14:05.320
He is an evangelist and did missions work for seven years

304
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:09.680
in a Muslim nation in northern Africa, where he built,

305
00:14:09.680 --> 00:14:12.920
he and his team built six different Bible schools

306
00:14:12.920 --> 00:14:17.240
in Arabic in those Muslim countries

307
00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:20.200
and brought truth and brought empowerment

308
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:23.520
and brought change and revival to the underground church

309
00:14:23.520 --> 00:14:25.440
that's there in these places.

310
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:27.880
And that's a little bit of his history.

311
00:14:27.880 --> 00:14:30.440
He comes out of the Brownsville revival,

312
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:33.320
a lot of activation that was happening there in his life

313
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:36.400
personally, and now just continues to minister.

314
00:14:36.400 --> 00:14:38.600
He has his own business, a multimillion dollar business

315
00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:40.200
that he operates and runs.

316
00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:41.760
This guy is incredible.

317
00:14:41.760 --> 00:14:43.520
And he's a member of our church.

318
00:14:43.520 --> 00:14:45.320
And he goes around just activating people

319
00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:46.480
in the power of Holy Spirit.

320
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:49.320
And so we invited him on and we said, Tim, we'd come

321
00:14:49.320 --> 00:14:51.840
and we'd be part of our activation tonight

322
00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:54.360
and just allow Holy Spirit to use you

323
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:59.360
and to activate individuals in the power of Holy Spirit.

324
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:02.560
specifically in their prayer language.

325
00:15:02.560 --> 00:15:04.320
So I don't want you to be intimidated by this.

326
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:07.560
I want you to be just open to it because trust me,

327
00:15:07.560 --> 00:15:10.200
as someone who's been walking with the Lord

328
00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:15.200
for almost 50 years and just, you know,

329
00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:18.400
relying on the power of Holy Spirit

330
00:15:18.400 --> 00:15:21.400
to get you through every situation,

331
00:15:21.400 --> 00:15:26.240
speaking in tongues is a respite.

332
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.480
Speaking in tongues is not weird or strange.

333
00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:32.600
It is an adornment of just an opportunity

334
00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:36.280
to meet, to connect personally with heaven.

335
00:15:36.280 --> 00:15:37.760
So I want you to be open to it tonight.

336
00:15:37.760 --> 00:15:39.320
Hey, Tim, are you there?

337
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.200
I'm here, David.

338
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:43.040
Thank you for being with us tonight.

339
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:47.120
And I wish that you would just,

340
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:50.640
you can maybe establish a few things,

341
00:15:50.640 --> 00:15:51.760
whatever's on your heart,

342
00:15:51.760 --> 00:15:55.960
but just lead us in this activation, if you will,

343
00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:57.720
in power of Holy Spirit.

344
00:15:57.720 --> 00:15:59.520
Sure, would love to.

345
00:15:59.520 --> 00:16:02.640
I grew up in a denominational background where,

346
00:16:02.640 --> 00:16:07.640
you know, with generations of my family being Baptist.

347
00:16:07.800 --> 00:16:11.680
And so we had a really good handle on the word,

348
00:16:11.680 --> 00:16:15.960
but other than Holy Spirit, like convicting people of sin

349
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:18.040
and drawing them to salvation,

350
00:16:18.040 --> 00:16:20.560
he was pretty much dead other than that, you know?

351
00:16:20.560 --> 00:16:23.760
I mean, he was pretty much neutered

352
00:16:24.760 --> 00:16:27.880
to do anything else, you know, in the church

353
00:16:27.880 --> 00:16:32.880
as far as, you know, releasing power and things like that.

354
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:36.840
So that's a little bit of the background that I came in.

355
00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:41.160
I've been all over the world, ladies and gentlemen,

356
00:16:42.800 --> 00:16:47.800
and seen people receive a baptism,

357
00:16:50.160 --> 00:16:51.840
just like you're baptized in water.

358
00:16:51.880 --> 00:16:55.880
I've seen people get a baptism in the Holy Spirit

359
00:16:55.880 --> 00:16:57.680
and the fire of God come on them

360
00:16:57.680 --> 00:16:59.400
and they're never the same.

361
00:16:59.400 --> 00:17:00.240
Yeah.

362
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:02.560
They are just never the same after that.

363
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:06.839
And so a lot of, you know,

364
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:11.319
freaky, weird teaching has gone around in the church.

365
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:13.880
I understand that about Holy Spirit,

366
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:17.520
about speaking in tongues and things like that.

367
00:17:17.520 --> 00:17:20.680
But what I want to tell you is that, you know,

368
00:17:20.680 --> 00:17:22.440
those of you who know the word,

369
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:25.480
those of you who've read the Bible quite a bit,

370
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:28.119
you know, you look in 1 Corinthians 12 and 14,

371
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:29.720
you see a lot about,

372
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:32.200
you see a lot about the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

373
00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:34.720
You know, you see a lot about prophecy,

374
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:38.320
words of wisdom, words of knowledge, healing,

375
00:17:38.320 --> 00:17:40.600
tongues and interpretation of tongues.

376
00:17:40.600 --> 00:17:42.080
What I want to tell you all

377
00:17:42.080 --> 00:17:45.920
that know quite a bit of the word,

378
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:47.800
know quite a bit of the Bible,

379
00:17:47.800 --> 00:17:52.280
that the gift of tongues in 1 Corinthians 12 and 14

380
00:17:52.280 --> 00:17:53.320
is an apple.

381
00:17:54.560 --> 00:17:57.960
Speaking in your prayer language, praying in the Spirit

382
00:17:57.960 --> 00:17:59.840
and singing in the Spirit

383
00:17:59.840 --> 00:18:01.960
and worshiping in the Spirit is an orange.

384
00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.600
They're two totally different things.

385
00:18:04.600 --> 00:18:08.000
So, and that's one thing coming from a Baptist background

386
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:12.560
that I did not understand for a long, long, long, long time.

387
00:18:12.560 --> 00:18:17.560
And it messed me up as far as being able to activate

388
00:18:18.080 --> 00:18:21.160
and flow in heavenly language,

389
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:23.320
like what you were talking about, David.

390
00:18:23.320 --> 00:18:27.320
So those of you who come from a more evangelical,

391
00:18:27.320 --> 00:18:32.240
traditional background, believe me, you can get past this.

392
00:18:32.240 --> 00:18:36.840
And you can activate something very powerful in your life.

393
00:18:36.840 --> 00:18:39.840
And let me tell you why you need to be able

394
00:18:39.840 --> 00:18:41.240
to pray in the Spirit.

395
00:18:41.240 --> 00:18:43.360
The reason you need to be able to pray in the Spirit

396
00:18:43.360 --> 00:18:44.840
is you don't know how to pray.

397
00:18:45.840 --> 00:18:47.440
Sometimes you don't.

398
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:51.240
Yeah, you don't know what's gonna happen tomorrow,

399
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:54.040
next week, next month, next year.

400
00:18:54.040 --> 00:18:57.680
You don't know all the details behind all the problems

401
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:01.040
that are going on with your family, with your kids,

402
00:19:01.040 --> 00:19:04.440
with your parents, with all of your friends,

403
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:06.240
you know, your circle of friends.

404
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:09.120
Does Holy Spirit know what's gonna happen tomorrow

405
00:19:09.120 --> 00:19:11.160
and next week and next month and next year?

406
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:12.440
Absolutely.

407
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:14.880
He's got a clear line of sight on that.

408
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:17.680
Does Holy Spirit know all the details

409
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:20.160
of all the problems in your circle?

410
00:19:20.160 --> 00:19:21.320
Absolutely.

411
00:19:22.360 --> 00:19:25.000
Now, when you activate this gift,

412
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:27.080
when you activate this heavenly language,

413
00:19:27.080 --> 00:19:32.080
you are able to pray about these things in such detail

414
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:36.200
and with such power that you see things shift and move.

415
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:37.040
Yeah.

416
00:19:37.040 --> 00:19:40.000
And that's the cool thing about being able to pray

417
00:19:40.840 --> 00:19:44.320
in your, you know, pray in English

418
00:19:44.320 --> 00:19:45.880
and also pray in the Spirit.

419
00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:48.240
You know, Paul says, I'll pray with my understanding

420
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:51.080
and I'll also pray in the Spirit.

421
00:19:51.080 --> 00:19:53.200
And it's a powerful thing.

422
00:19:53.200 --> 00:19:55.440
And a lot of the church doesn't go for it

423
00:19:55.440 --> 00:19:57.440
because they don't understand.

424
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:00.280
And their theology is tilted.

425
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.680
in a way where, hey, that just doesn't happen anymore.

426
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:05.100
It's much easier to say,

427
00:20:05.100 --> 00:20:06.840
hey, these things just don't happen anymore,

428
00:20:06.840 --> 00:20:08.400
so we're not gonna deal with them.

429
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:10.000
But they do.

430
00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:11.800
And I've seen it all over the world.

431
00:20:13.120 --> 00:20:14.360
That's so good.

432
00:20:14.360 --> 00:20:16.320
You know, Paul, just like you were talking about,

433
00:20:16.320 --> 00:20:18.640
like your background, Paul had that background.

434
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:20.480
He had that evangelical background,

435
00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:23.000
that traditional sort of situation.

436
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:25.560
And he came and he had that Damascus experience, right?

437
00:20:25.560 --> 00:20:29.840
He met Jesus, baptized, he's empowered in the spirit.

438
00:20:30.800 --> 00:20:34.240
He goes, I wish that you all, you know, operate like I do.

439
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:35.080
As a matter of fact,

440
00:20:35.080 --> 00:20:37.560
I actually speak in tongues more than all of you.

441
00:20:37.560 --> 00:20:40.660
Like what he was saying was just like, I do this a lot.

442
00:20:40.660 --> 00:20:42.680
You may not think so, but I do this a lot,

443
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:45.480
even in my own self, in my own situation.

444
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:48.100
So yeah, you can get past it.

445
00:20:49.000 --> 00:20:52.120
And it doesn't have to be very difficult

446
00:20:52.120 --> 00:20:57.120
and strange or anything.

447
00:20:57.360 --> 00:21:00.840
And I've seen people all over the world receive this.

448
00:21:00.840 --> 00:21:04.440
And it's not hard, it's not spooky.

449
00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:09.600
It's just as easy as puckering your lips

450
00:21:09.600 --> 00:21:11.120
and receiving a kiss.

451
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:17.240
It's really that easy.

452
00:21:19.080 --> 00:21:20.000
And it's a gift.

453
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:23.200
And you know, my dad is a very good guy.

454
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:24.360
He's a good father.

455
00:21:24.400 --> 00:21:27.440
He likes to give good gifts to his kids.

456
00:21:27.440 --> 00:21:28.440
He really does.

457
00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:34.240
So I've seen people who've never done it,

458
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:35.720
do it for the first time,

459
00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:38.200
and it'd be powerful in their lives.

460
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:41.760
I've seen people who've been doing it all their lives,

461
00:21:41.760 --> 00:21:45.640
maybe receive a new language

462
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:47.800
that they'd never have before.

463
00:21:47.800 --> 00:21:52.600
And both aspects of it are really neat to see.

464
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:54.240
Yes, yes.

465
00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:55.160
Well, let's just pray.

466
00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:58.280
Let's just open, let's just assume that posture again

467
00:21:58.280 --> 00:22:03.280
of just receiving what Holy Spirit has for us tonight.

468
00:22:04.040 --> 00:22:06.240
And Father God, we just come to you right now.

469
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:07.980
We just thank you.

470
00:22:07.980 --> 00:22:12.200
We thank you, Lord, for your original thought

471
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:14.300
of each one of us.

472
00:22:14.300 --> 00:22:17.240
The original idea that you had for each one of us

473
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:21.560
to exist and to be, and you brought us into being.

474
00:22:21.560 --> 00:22:22.680
And then everything went wrong

475
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:25.080
and you sent your son to redeem it all,

476
00:22:25.080 --> 00:22:26.800
to pay the price for us.

477
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:32.320
And then Holy Spirit is now here

478
00:22:32.320 --> 00:22:36.000
and empowering us to do right, to live right,

479
00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:40.120
to solve problems, to move forward,

480
00:22:40.120 --> 00:22:42.920
and empower us to be everything that we can be

481
00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:44.520
as sons and daughters of God.

482
00:22:44.520 --> 00:22:47.800
So now, Father God, we just come to you

483
00:22:47.800 --> 00:22:50.240
and ask right now, Lord, that you would just,

484
00:22:51.560 --> 00:22:55.840
empower us, Jesus, you are the baptizer

485
00:22:55.840 --> 00:22:57.780
in the Holy Spirit.

486
00:22:57.780 --> 00:23:01.800
Baptize us, we ask you right now,

487
00:23:01.800 --> 00:23:04.000
in the power of Holy Spirit.

488
00:23:05.240 --> 00:23:09.960
Baptize us with fire and in the Spirit.

489
00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:11.980
Baptize us right now.

490
00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:16.560
Fill us now with Holy Spirit

491
00:23:18.520 --> 00:23:20.640
and let it be manifested in this place

492
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:22.040
and this time together.

493
00:23:23.040 --> 00:23:24.880
Jesus, thank you.

494
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:27.320
Hallelujah.

495
00:23:28.680 --> 00:23:31.280
Shanda labaha sabara mabarakusa.

496
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:35.320
Lambaha rahna lalaba shukur lalabasa.

497
00:23:37.360 --> 00:23:39.880
If you've never spoke in other tongues,

498
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:43.520
sometimes it just starts as just one little syllable.

499
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:47.480
I, when I started speaking in tongues,

500
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:49.720
it's shanda, shanda, shanda, shanda, shanda,

501
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:50.560
that was all it was.

502
00:23:51.380 --> 00:23:54.840
I was just willing to just articulate something

503
00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:00.120
and I was willing to just be open to receive it.

504
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:07.400
And I was looking, David, at your comments off to the side.

505
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:09.840
Somebody, Bonnie, you asked,

506
00:24:09.840 --> 00:24:11.280
do you understand what you're saying

507
00:24:11.280 --> 00:24:14.480
in the heavenly language or is it gibberish to you?

508
00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:16.960
Most of the time, you're not gonna understand

509
00:24:16.960 --> 00:24:18.840
what you're saying.

510
00:24:18.840 --> 00:24:23.640
And because you're praying,

511
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:27.440
you're allowing Holy Spirit to pray through you.

512
00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:28.400
Yeah.

513
00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:33.400
Something that bypasses this and flows from this.

514
00:24:34.080 --> 00:24:34.920
Yeah.

515
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:37.760
It bypasses your mind and it flows from your heart.

516
00:24:38.680 --> 00:24:43.480
And it's a powerful thing.

517
00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:47.360
And like I said, there has been a lot of confusing

518
00:24:47.360 --> 00:24:51.360
and really weird teaching in the church about this

519
00:24:51.360 --> 00:24:54.240
that have kept a lot of people away from it.

520
00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:58.360
So those of you who wanna receive,

521
00:24:58.360 --> 00:25:00.240
I want you just to put your hands out.

522
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.320
out in front of you, like I'm giving you a gift

523
00:25:03.320 --> 00:25:05.560
and you're just kind of taking it, okay?

524
00:25:05.560 --> 00:25:07.640
This is a prophetic act.

525
00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:09.360
So just put your hands out in front of you,

526
00:25:09.360 --> 00:25:11.160
like I'm gonna hand you a package

527
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:14.160
or like I'm gonna hand you a gift, okay?

528
00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:20.560
And here's how one of the early Pentecostal fathers

529
00:25:20.560 --> 00:25:25.360
used to do it, and I like the way he used to do it.

530
00:25:25.360 --> 00:25:28.040
He'd basically get in a room full of people

531
00:25:28.040 --> 00:25:31.200
and he'd say, okay, I'm gonna count to three.

532
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:35.680
And when I say three, everybody in the room speak in tongues.

533
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:37.440
And the reason he did that, I think,

534
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:39.700
is because to give people a point of contact

535
00:25:39.700 --> 00:25:40.540
at which to start,

536
00:25:40.540 --> 00:25:42.880
it's kind of like pulling the handle on a lawnmower.

537
00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:43.720
Yeah.

538
00:25:43.720 --> 00:25:45.080
Yeah.

539
00:25:45.080 --> 00:25:47.440
So what I'm gonna do is I just want you

540
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:49.280
to put your hands out in front of you

541
00:25:50.280 --> 00:25:51.880
and I'm gonna count to three.

542
00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:55.360
And David, would it cause mass chaos

543
00:25:55.360 --> 00:25:57.040
if everybody unmuted?

544
00:25:59.520 --> 00:26:01.160
I don't wanna cause mass chaos,

545
00:26:01.160 --> 00:26:03.760
but I want everybody's participation.

546
00:26:03.760 --> 00:26:05.840
I want everybody's buy-in.

547
00:26:05.840 --> 00:26:08.200
It can be a little crazy, but we'll allow it for,

548
00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:09.680
we'll allow it for a moment so that if we get-

549
00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:13.560
Okay, okay, allow it for like 60 or 120 seconds, okay?

550
00:26:13.560 --> 00:26:14.800
Yeah, that's good.

551
00:26:14.800 --> 00:26:16.640
Okay, everybody on the call

552
00:26:16.640 --> 00:26:19.480
that wants to participate in this, no pressure.

553
00:26:19.480 --> 00:26:20.680
No pressure.

554
00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:23.000
Unmute, and here's what I'm gonna do.

555
00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:24.520
I'm gonna count to three.

556
00:26:25.360 --> 00:26:26.680
And when I say three,

557
00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:29.640
all of us speak something out of our mouth

558
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:31.400
that's not English.

559
00:26:31.400 --> 00:26:34.280
And just do it by faith and see what happens, okay?

560
00:26:35.600 --> 00:26:37.880
So Father, right now, I just release

561
00:26:39.080 --> 00:26:42.080
the power and fire of the Holy Spirit.

562
00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:43.800
God.

563
00:28:48.800 --> 00:28:50.640
He does give you life.

564
00:28:53.040 --> 00:28:54.560
Don't let Him die.

565
00:29:00.280 --> 00:29:01.120
Hurry.

566
00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:05.640
Too many people.

567
00:29:07.120 --> 00:29:09.080
Give me the key to the light.

568
00:29:09.240 --> 00:29:10.480
Give me the key.

569
00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:12.920
Give me blessing.

570
00:29:16.160 --> 00:29:17.000
Give me life.

571
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:21.280
Give me the key.

572
00:29:21.600 --> 00:29:24.080
He give us divine light.

573
00:29:25.960 --> 00:29:28.000
Our hearts feel light.

574
00:29:29.600 --> 00:29:31.760
Is He within us?

575
00:29:32.760 --> 00:29:34.160
Is He within us now?

576
00:29:35.920 --> 00:29:36.880
He is.

577
00:29:37.360 --> 00:29:38.360
He is.

578
00:29:46.560 --> 00:29:52.880
All right, I muted everyone for a moment just so we could get some clarity on that.

579
00:29:52.880 --> 00:30:00.160
Isn't that beautiful, beautiful, heavenly chaos in the name of Jesus.

580
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.640
That's so good. Let me get you. Unmute yourself there, Tim, if you got, can you do that?

581
00:30:05.520 --> 00:30:06.320
I can, yeah.

582
00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:08.000
Go ahead.

583
00:30:08.000 --> 00:30:15.680
Yep. So, listen, guys, what I want to tell you is you can do this anywhere and anytime, okay?

584
00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:20.960
This is something that you flip the switch on and you flip the switch off, you know?

585
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:28.720
You can drive down the road, praying in the spirit. You can be in the middle of a shower,

586
00:30:28.720 --> 00:30:34.640
praying in the spirit. You can be at the stove cooking. You can be out mowing your grass,

587
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:43.280
praying in the spirit. And, you know, at some point in all of our lives, we run out of English

588
00:30:43.280 --> 00:30:50.640
vocabulary to pray things that we still know in our heart something needs prayer. And that's when

589
00:30:50.640 --> 00:30:56.480
this gift is activated. And it's just a really cool thing to be able to do.

590
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:01.680
So it's not a have to, it's a get to.

591
00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:10.640
Amen. Amen. Sarah, do you have anything by way of encouragement, prophetic,

592
00:31:11.520 --> 00:31:14.880
anything that the Lord has like highlighted to you tonight you want to add?

593
00:31:16.080 --> 00:31:18.080
Just in general or about tongues?

594
00:31:18.080 --> 00:31:22.000
About tongues, about in general, but and also about tongues specifically.

595
00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:29.280
Yeah, I just the one thing I'd say about tongues is it's the only gift of the spirit

596
00:31:29.280 --> 00:31:36.880
that's for the individual. And so I know for me in my process, so I'm just releasing this testimony

597
00:31:37.600 --> 00:31:43.040
is that, you know, I didn't think I could speak in tongues for like a year. I kept asking for

598
00:31:43.040 --> 00:31:50.560
the baptism of the Holy Spirit. And sorry, my camera's off. And I realized that I got it the

599
00:31:50.560 --> 00:31:57.920
first time I asked. When I read Luke 1113, it says, you know, I'm paraphrasing, but it says,

600
00:32:01.600 --> 00:32:04.800
you know, if your son asked for bread, you don't give him a snake.

601
00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:09.840
And then it ends with how much more the Father will give the Holy Spirit.

602
00:32:10.320 --> 00:32:19.520
And so that was why I'm having feedback. But, you know, but the first time you asked for the

603
00:32:19.520 --> 00:32:23.920
Holy Spirit to come and baptize you in his presence in tongues, you get it. And then I

604
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:30.560
asked my pastor, how do you pray in tongues? And he said, open your mouth. And I got so mad.

605
00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:36.320
And then I went home and tried it. And it's like David said, it was like a couple syllables.

606
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:45.680
So that's the scripture reference for Luke 1113, that when you ask for the Holy Spirit,

607
00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:50.560
the Father will give it. And so I prayed for a year for it and I had it the first time I asked.

608
00:32:51.120 --> 00:32:56.080
So whoever that is, today's the day you got it the first time you asked.

609
00:32:57.040 --> 00:33:02.240
Yeah. If you ask that tonight, so let me, yeah, let's just echo that because if you asked

610
00:33:03.200 --> 00:33:08.080
for that tonight and you were like genuine in your heart, like, yeah, I want this.

611
00:33:09.200 --> 00:33:17.440
You were filled with this ability tonight. You were filled with Holy Spirit and activated in

612
00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:23.280
this and you can do this. And Ephesians encourages us that as we're operating and we're learning to

613
00:33:23.280 --> 00:33:31.280
operate in the gifts of the Spirit, that it is by reason of use, meaning that the more you use it,

614
00:33:31.360 --> 00:33:35.280
the better you get it. It's just like anything. The more you exercise, the better you get it

615
00:33:35.280 --> 00:33:40.000
exercise. The more you write is the better you get at writing. The more you do anything,

616
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:46.000
the better you get at it. So as you activate yourself in this, knowing that even the,

617
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:54.000
how many of you believe that even just one word of the scripture can change something?

618
00:33:54.960 --> 00:34:02.240
Just one word, right? Well, if that's true, then it is true that in the heavenly language,

619
00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:09.600
one word of your heavenly language. So even one syllable can start to bring about change in your

620
00:34:09.600 --> 00:34:17.199
life. So start with wherever you're comfortable with. And then by reason of use, begin to grow

621
00:34:17.199 --> 00:34:25.600
in this gift that you've been given tonight, the power of speaking in tongues and in the Spirit.

622
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:34.480
Amen. David, similar to Sarah, it took me three years coming out of a Baptist background to

623
00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:43.360
receive this because my expectations were different than reality. My expectations were

624
00:34:43.360 --> 00:34:48.320
this invisible lightning bolt will come out of heaven, strike me in the head, that something

625
00:34:48.320 --> 00:34:53.760
invisible would take control of my mouth without my participation and start yapping in this other

626
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:59.840
language. And that never happened. So I never received anything until, like Sarah said,

627
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.120
I opened my mouth and started speaking something out

628
00:35:03.120 --> 00:35:05.520
that wasn't English by faith.

629
00:35:05.520 --> 00:35:07.920
And then I had everybody and their brother

630
00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:09.120
laying hands on me,

631
00:35:09.120 --> 00:35:12.200
thinking that that was what was going to happen.

632
00:35:12.200 --> 00:35:15.040
It was not going to require my participation

633
00:35:15.040 --> 00:35:16.880
because I wanted God to do it.

634
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:17.720
Yeah.

635
00:35:17.720 --> 00:35:20.640
And I came at it with a sincere heart.

636
00:35:20.640 --> 00:35:24.920
But when I did get it,

637
00:35:24.920 --> 00:35:26.920
I looked at the minister that was praying for me.

638
00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:27.920
I was like, was that it?

639
00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:29.280
And he's like, uh-huh.

640
00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:30.600
Okay.

641
00:35:30.600 --> 00:35:31.880
Not what I was expecting.

642
00:35:31.880 --> 00:35:33.720
He's like, I don't care what you were expecting.

643
00:35:33.720 --> 00:35:34.560
That's it.

644
00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:37.240
Yeah, the point of contact,

645
00:35:37.240 --> 00:35:39.280
you know, Jesus healed so many people.

646
00:35:39.280 --> 00:35:40.480
We understand this, right?

647
00:35:40.480 --> 00:35:41.640
And there was even one instance,

648
00:35:41.640 --> 00:35:45.200
several instances where he healed all, right?

649
00:35:45.200 --> 00:35:47.560
But the point of contact is expressed

650
00:35:47.560 --> 00:35:49.240
in many different ways.

651
00:35:49.240 --> 00:35:52.120
Many times Jesus spit in the mud,

652
00:35:52.120 --> 00:35:53.400
make mud, put on eyes.

653
00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:54.440
He touched them.

654
00:35:54.440 --> 00:35:55.520
He was walking down the street.

655
00:35:55.520 --> 00:35:57.280
Someone touched the hem of his garment.

656
00:35:57.280 --> 00:35:59.480
There were so many points of context.

657
00:35:59.480 --> 00:36:02.640
The point of contact isn't as important

658
00:36:02.640 --> 00:36:06.720
or the way it comes isn't as important as that it comes.

659
00:36:06.720 --> 00:36:09.040
So you could be driving in your car.

660
00:36:09.040 --> 00:36:13.160
Jackie's testimony when she was baptized in Holy Spirit,

661
00:36:13.160 --> 00:36:16.920
she was in her living room and she was singing.

662
00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:19.080
I think I'm getting it right here.

663
00:36:19.080 --> 00:36:21.760
And she just started speaking in tongues

664
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:24.880
because she had been praying for it and believing for it

665
00:36:24.880 --> 00:36:26.640
and hands laid on her and all the things

666
00:36:26.640 --> 00:36:28.200
and you can do it at an altar.

667
00:36:28.200 --> 00:36:31.400
You can do it in sort of that demonstrative way.

668
00:36:31.400 --> 00:36:35.720
But so many people have had this encounter with the Lord

669
00:36:35.720 --> 00:36:37.120
in so many different ways.

670
00:36:37.120 --> 00:36:40.080
It all just depends on your point of receiving.

671
00:36:40.080 --> 00:36:42.040
Where's your faith at?

672
00:36:42.040 --> 00:36:43.000
Where's your faith at?

673
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.160
Like, not like you have faith,

674
00:36:45.160 --> 00:36:47.120
but what is your faith on?

675
00:36:47.120 --> 00:36:48.400
And your faith could be, you know what?

676
00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:50.320
I believe I could receive this just right now

677
00:36:50.320 --> 00:36:52.840
here in my living room in the quiet

678
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:55.440
or some music on or from whatever it is,

679
00:36:55.440 --> 00:36:58.600
the environment, whatever it is that means something to you.

680
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:04.000
Can I jump off of that from what Jackie shared yesterday?

681
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:06.600
Yesterday on Supernatural Saturday,

682
00:37:06.600 --> 00:37:09.600
she talked about you can't throw the baby out

683
00:37:09.600 --> 00:37:10.920
with the bath water.

684
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:14.640
And she was discipled by the Pentecostal church

685
00:37:14.640 --> 00:37:15.520
for 10 years.

686
00:37:15.520 --> 00:37:18.600
And then she realized there were some legalistic things.

687
00:37:18.600 --> 00:37:20.720
But I just felt when you asked me that, David,

688
00:37:20.720 --> 00:37:23.560
I just felt like there were some people on tonight

689
00:37:23.600 --> 00:37:26.320
that you've thrown the baby out with the bath water

690
00:37:26.320 --> 00:37:30.280
because some human misrepresented the Lord.

691
00:37:30.280 --> 00:37:31.120
Yes.

692
00:37:31.120 --> 00:37:34.280
And there's an invitation tonight for you

693
00:37:34.280 --> 00:37:36.200
to receive what God has to give you,

694
00:37:36.200 --> 00:37:37.720
what the Holy Spirit has to give you

695
00:37:37.720 --> 00:37:41.000
and not let that person who hurt you,

696
00:37:41.000 --> 00:37:45.600
rob you of your full inheritance in the kingdom.

697
00:37:45.600 --> 00:37:49.400
And so as a leader in just in the church and on here,

698
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:52.240
I just stand in the gap and ask forgiveness

699
00:37:52.240 --> 00:37:54.400
for where the church has hurt you.

700
00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:55.240
Yes.

701
00:37:55.240 --> 00:37:59.480
And just say, would you forgive me for controlling you?

702
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:03.360
Would you forgive me for making you feel less than?

703
00:38:03.360 --> 00:38:07.080
Would you forgive me for where I overlooked you

704
00:38:07.080 --> 00:38:10.240
and didn't explain what you were trying to understand?

705
00:38:12.120 --> 00:38:13.800
Would you forgive me?

706
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:17.040
But do not let what that person did rob you

707
00:38:17.040 --> 00:38:19.520
of the inheritance you have in the kingdom.

708
00:38:20.520 --> 00:38:22.680
Don't throw the baby out with the bath water,

709
00:38:22.680 --> 00:38:23.840
like Jackie said.

710
00:38:26.120 --> 00:38:31.120
It breaks my heart when good and well-meaning people

711
00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:36.080
who love God have been hurt by those individuals,

712
00:38:36.080 --> 00:38:40.280
especially who were supposed to be representing him

713
00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:42.000
in a certain level of authority.

714
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:43.080
It happens all the time.

715
00:38:43.080 --> 00:38:43.920
It's a real thing.

716
00:38:43.920 --> 00:38:46.240
We all know it, but it just breaks my heart.

717
00:38:46.240 --> 00:38:47.720
I'm especially attuned to that.

718
00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:49.680
And I'm so glad you brought that up, Sarah,

719
00:38:49.680 --> 00:38:52.120
because it brings me to tears.

720
00:38:52.120 --> 00:38:53.760
And I was just gonna do the same thing

721
00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:56.680
because I did vocational ministry for 20 years

722
00:38:56.680 --> 00:38:58.120
and I've been that person.

723
00:38:59.920 --> 00:39:03.320
I don't mean like in terms of just trying to hurt people.

724
00:39:03.320 --> 00:39:05.360
I'm just saying I've been in that position

725
00:39:05.360 --> 00:39:08.760
of church leadership where I know that that happens

726
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:10.000
and I get it.

727
00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:11.680
And so I do the same thing.

728
00:39:11.680 --> 00:39:13.960
I say, I'm sorry.

729
00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:17.000
As a person who has stood in that position

730
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:19.680
of church leadership,

731
00:39:19.680 --> 00:39:24.680
that I ask you to forgive us, forgive me for hurting you,

732
00:39:24.920 --> 00:39:29.160
for abandoning, for just rejecting,

733
00:39:29.160 --> 00:39:31.800
for using you for what you could bring to the table

734
00:39:31.800 --> 00:39:35.560
or whatever it was that you were hurt in that context.

735
00:39:35.560 --> 00:39:37.440
Because that's so important.

736
00:39:37.440 --> 00:39:39.000
So good that you brought that up

737
00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:41.960
that I don't want you to miss out on the good things of God

738
00:39:42.000 --> 00:39:46.080
just because other people were acting badly

739
00:39:46.080 --> 00:39:47.880
or didn't even know what they were doing

740
00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:49.880
because they were just ignorant.

741
00:39:49.880 --> 00:39:51.320
They were just ignorant

742
00:39:52.560 --> 00:39:56.480
because they didn't know how to handle their responsibility

743
00:39:56.480 --> 00:39:57.880
and their gifting in a way

744
00:39:57.880 --> 00:39:59.720
that was trying to be a blessing.

745
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:01.320
So that's very powerful.

746
00:40:01.320 --> 00:40:02.960
I know there's a lot of people.

747
00:40:02.960 --> 00:40:05.840
We hear it all the time, not just in this community,

748
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:10.080
but just all over our sphere of influence.

749
00:40:10.080 --> 00:40:12.800
We're in touch with Christian people all the time.

750
00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:17.800
And so many people are hurt by just the form of religion.

751
00:40:17.900 --> 00:40:20.360
And I hate it, and I hate it.

752
00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:21.960
And God's doing something about it

753
00:40:21.960 --> 00:40:25.920
because there's a revival happening

754
00:40:25.920 --> 00:40:28.080
in the mode of church and all that.

755
00:40:28.080 --> 00:40:30.520
And we'll just let Holy Spirit direct all that.

756
00:40:30.520 --> 00:40:34.160
But I'm just telling you what, there's a new day.

757
00:40:34.160 --> 00:40:35.140
There's a new day coming.

758
00:40:35.140 --> 00:40:36.160
There's a new mode.

759
00:40:36.160 --> 00:40:37.360
There's a new revelation.

760
00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:39.960
There's a new authorization.

761
00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:41.720
There's a new experience.

762
00:40:41.720 --> 00:40:43.080
And God is always moving,

763
00:40:43.080 --> 00:40:46.560
and you can either ride the wave or get overcome by it.

764
00:40:46.560 --> 00:40:48.560
And I prefer to learn how to serve

765
00:40:48.560 --> 00:40:51.720
and to ride the wave in Jesus' name.

766
00:40:51.720 --> 00:40:54.140
Yeah, and I was gonna say to everyone,

767
00:40:54.140 --> 00:40:56.440
like hurt people hurt people,

768
00:40:56.440 --> 00:40:58.720
but heal people heal people.

769
00:40:58.720 --> 00:40:59.680
Yes.

770
00:40:59.680 --> 00:41:01.280
Heal people heal people.

771
00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:04.340
I'd heard that hurt people hurt people forever,

772
00:41:04.340 --> 00:41:07.200
but it wasn't until I met some of my community now

773
00:41:07.200 --> 00:41:10.160
that I realized heal people heal people.

774
00:41:10.160 --> 00:41:12.720
And when I became a leader in the church,

775
00:41:12.720 --> 00:41:15.640
I was meeting with my pastor like three weeks later.

776
00:41:15.640 --> 00:41:18.840
And I said, you trust me more than I trust myself.

777
00:41:18.840 --> 00:41:20.960
And she said, that's because you're trustworthy

778
00:41:20.960 --> 00:41:24.040
and you've been hurt and I have authority in your life

779
00:41:24.040 --> 00:41:25.040
and I'm gonna walk with you.

780
00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:28.920
And you're gonna, the only way to get healed

781
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:31.960
from what you've been hurt is to go back into it.

782
00:41:32.920 --> 00:41:34.840
I mean, Jackie and David's story,

783
00:41:34.840 --> 00:41:37.840
like your marriage now, you know what I mean?

784
00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:41.560
Like it's a perfect testimony of like being hurt

785
00:41:41.560 --> 00:41:44.720
and then getting healed and now helping us all heal.

786
00:41:44.720 --> 00:41:47.160
So heal people heal people.

787
00:41:47.160 --> 00:41:48.360
So good.

788
00:41:48.360 --> 00:41:49.200
Thank you, Sarah.

789
00:41:49.200 --> 00:41:50.320
Thank you for sharing that.

790
00:41:50.320 --> 00:41:52.320
That's so powerful.

791
00:41:52.320 --> 00:41:55.240
I do wanna open it up for a little bit of time

792
00:41:55.240 --> 00:41:58.560
of like, if there's any individuals,

793
00:41:58.560 --> 00:42:00.360
Sarah, if you can do this, if you want to,

794
00:42:00.360 --> 00:42:02.560
if you feel that, Tim,

795
00:42:02.560 --> 00:42:05.720
if it's anybody that's highlighted to you specifically

796
00:42:05.720 --> 00:42:07.160
right now, no pressure,

797
00:42:07.160 --> 00:42:09.600
but just like there's anybody on here

798
00:42:09.600 --> 00:42:14.600
that God's speaking to you that you have a word for,

799
00:42:15.040 --> 00:42:17.400
I wanna encourage you to do that, open that up.

800
00:42:19.880 --> 00:42:21.400
Anybody in particular?

801
00:42:23.320 --> 00:42:25.440
Not particular, but there was one thing

802
00:42:25.440 --> 00:42:28.720
as I was praying about through what Jackie said

803
00:42:28.720 --> 00:42:29.560
for everyone.

804
00:42:29.560 --> 00:42:33.960
Another thing is that she said yesterday

805
00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:37.320
on Supernatural Saturday that we know so much about God,

806
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:38.800
we forget to talk to Him.

807
00:42:39.760 --> 00:42:43.000
And we listen so much to other people talking about God,

808
00:42:43.000 --> 00:42:44.800
we forget to talk to Him.

809
00:42:44.800 --> 00:42:47.560
And I just feel like God,

810
00:42:47.560 --> 00:42:50.400
like God wants to have a conversation with you.

811
00:42:50.400 --> 00:42:51.680
Yeah.

812
00:42:51.720 --> 00:42:55.200
Like you, not just me, not just David, not just Tim,

813
00:42:55.200 --> 00:42:57.400
but like God wants to talk to you.

814
00:42:57.400 --> 00:42:59.840
And she said, when you're driving in the car,

815
00:42:59.840 --> 00:43:01.080
when you're washing dishes,

816
00:43:01.080 --> 00:43:05.200
and so that is a word that I felt that was for everybody

817
00:43:05.200 --> 00:43:08.560
is like, have a conversation with God.

818
00:43:08.560 --> 00:43:11.080
Like you would talk to a friend,

819
00:43:11.080 --> 00:43:12.640
because we are friends.

820
00:43:14.360 --> 00:43:15.200
That's so good.

821
00:43:15.200 --> 00:43:19.080
I come to the Lord all the time after a season

822
00:43:19.080 --> 00:43:23.080
of just like, haven't heard from you for a while.

823
00:43:23.080 --> 00:43:26.200
And I'm like, yes, it's been a minute, God, I'm sorry.

824
00:43:26.200 --> 00:43:29.640
Yeah, so about that, like, here's what's going on.

825
00:43:29.640 --> 00:43:31.920
And I just start, I just,

826
00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:34.320
sometimes I'm even kind of resistant to it at first

827
00:43:34.320 --> 00:43:35.160
because I'm just like,

828
00:43:35.160 --> 00:43:36.560
oh, I just don't feel good about it.

829
00:43:36.560 --> 00:43:39.240
Cause I'm like, oh, I'm kind of like avoiding it almost.

830
00:43:39.240 --> 00:43:40.760
Like, you know, you're avoiding that person

831
00:43:40.760 --> 00:43:43.200
that you know you need to say something to

832
00:43:43.200 --> 00:43:44.680
or ask them for something,

833
00:43:44.680 --> 00:43:47.120
or it's just like a family member or whatever that is,

834
00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:49.320
that uncomfortableness.

835
00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:50.280
And sometimes I'm just like,

836
00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:51.880
oh yeah, it's been a minute, Lord.

837
00:43:51.880 --> 00:43:55.440
Okay, so let me just dive into it.

838
00:43:55.440 --> 00:43:57.760
And so sometimes you just have to just step into it

839
00:43:57.760 --> 00:43:59.480
and just do it.

840
00:43:59.480 --> 00:44:01.960
Just like Nike says, just do it.

841
00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:04.320
And this is the same thing.

842
00:44:04.320 --> 00:44:09.320
Learn how to pray in other tongues to just do it.

843
00:44:09.640 --> 00:44:11.400
Just do it.

844
00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:12.880
It's gonna be life changing.

845
00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:14.800
It's gonna be awesome.

846
00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:18.000
It's gonna shift you from one thing to another.

847
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:22.320
You'll be surprised at what God does inside of you

848
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:25.240
as a result of this new level that you're gonna go to

849
00:44:25.240 --> 00:44:26.800
if you've never done this before.

850
00:44:26.800 --> 00:44:31.040
And if you've done it for years, get a new language,

851
00:44:31.040 --> 00:44:33.320
get a new version of the tongue,

852
00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:35.200
sing in a different key.

853
00:44:35.200 --> 00:44:38.320
Don't sing in the same key, sing at a different key.

854
00:44:38.320 --> 00:44:40.880
Resonate at a different vibration.

855
00:44:40.880 --> 00:44:42.880
Allow Holy Spirit to take you up

856
00:44:42.880 --> 00:44:47.400
to another level of understanding and empowerment tonight.

857
00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:48.240
Receive this.

858
00:44:48.240 --> 00:44:49.640
How many of you receive this?

859
00:44:51.240 --> 00:44:52.600
How many of you receive this tonight?

860
00:44:52.600 --> 00:44:56.200
Raise your hand if you are receiving any of this tonight.

861
00:44:57.760 --> 00:44:59.920
David, there really is almost like a.

862
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:07.200
language muscle, you know, that the more you use it, the stronger it gets, and the more

863
00:45:07.200 --> 00:45:15.160
you're able to do with it, so it's, it's, it's, it's, you could, you really can develop

864
00:45:15.160 --> 00:45:23.000
it like a muscle, and so just put, put, put that in your heart and let that, let that

865
00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:31.520
stew a little bit, and, and you'll see the more you use it, the, the, the greater variation

866
00:45:31.520 --> 00:45:39.440
will come out, and, and, and it'll come out at the, sometimes the most unexpected times

867
00:45:39.440 --> 00:45:43.960
when you're just minding your own business, not doing anything spiritual, not listening

868
00:45:43.960 --> 00:45:50.520
to worship music, not thinking about Jesus, not thinking about God, but all of a sudden,

869
00:45:50.520 --> 00:45:58.520
you'll just find yourself kind of mumbling under your breath in the spirit.

870
00:45:58.520 --> 00:46:03.160
I want to tell you that one of the manifestations and the uses of speaking in tongues, a couple,

871
00:46:03.160 --> 00:46:11.560
let me just educate you a little bit on this, speaking in tongues can be first and foremost

872
00:46:11.560 --> 00:46:16.720
the most direct, one of the most direct ways we can come into agreement with heaven, because

873
00:46:16.720 --> 00:46:21.080
when you're speaking in tongues, you're literally speaking a spiritual language that's known

874
00:46:21.080 --> 00:46:27.680
in heaven, okay, so you're speaking spirit words, you're speaking accurately when you're

875
00:46:27.680 --> 00:46:29.720
using tongues to do that.

876
00:46:29.720 --> 00:46:35.000
Number two, it is a way for you to build your faith, like scripture says in James, it's

877
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:39.360
a way to edify yourself and build yourself up, so when you need empowerment, when you

878
00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:45.400
need strength, when you need like that extra dose, use your tongues to go into that, and,

879
00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:53.000
in another way, is that not only when you don't know what to pray, but you can intercede

880
00:46:53.000 --> 00:46:59.480
with speaking in tongues, it's a way to be able to powerfully intercede in a situation

881
00:46:59.480 --> 00:47:05.640
that is very troublesome or unknown or very distant from you, or interceding in a way

882
00:47:05.640 --> 00:47:10.360
that you just know that like this requires growing, there's something here, I just know

883
00:47:10.360 --> 00:47:14.160
that something needs to shift, I don't know how to do it, but I'm going to go into tongues

884
00:47:14.200 --> 00:47:18.920
and I'm going to use my prayer language to intercede for something, and sometimes that

885
00:47:18.920 --> 00:47:26.240
can be very powerfully emotional because usually intercession comes upon you, if you will allow

886
00:47:26.240 --> 00:47:32.600
Holy Spirit to use you in the way of intercession, he will use you to be able to bring breakthrough

887
00:47:32.600 --> 00:47:39.280
for other people, and it's a very powerful heavenly scriptural activity is to intercede

888
00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:44.600
on the behalf of others, because you know what, Jesus does it for you, Holy Spirit does

889
00:47:44.600 --> 00:47:49.200
it for you, Holy Spirit intercedes for you, and so therefore you should intercede and

890
00:47:49.200 --> 00:47:53.720
you can be an intercessor for other people, so sometimes you're very emotionally attached

891
00:47:53.720 --> 00:47:58.040
or aware of a situation, if it's a family member or a friend or someone who's very close

892
00:47:58.040 --> 00:48:02.280
to you, that you know that they need a breakthrough, they need a healing, they need a deliverance

893
00:48:02.280 --> 00:48:08.640
of some sort, they need whatever, and so sometimes those are things where Holy Spirit can use

894
00:48:08.640 --> 00:48:13.240
the gift of intercession to come upon you, if you'll allow it, and speaking in tongues

895
00:48:13.240 --> 00:48:18.080
can be very, very powerful in that way, amen?

896
00:48:18.080 --> 00:48:23.280
So I just want to encourage you tonight, there's so many different manifestations of this and

897
00:48:23.280 --> 00:48:28.280
so many different reasons why we could be here all night talking about the different

898
00:48:28.280 --> 00:48:33.400
benefits and reasons of stepping into this, but I'm telling you what, it's powerful and

899
00:48:33.400 --> 00:48:38.640
it can start with just even one little syllable, if that's what it takes.

900
00:48:38.640 --> 00:48:46.000
I've seen people like from the very beginning, just like they just got it, you know, and

901
00:48:46.000 --> 00:48:54.400
so it can come all sorts of ways, if you'll let it, if you just receive it, it's a gift

902
00:48:54.400 --> 00:48:56.400
and it's yours.

903
00:48:57.400 --> 00:48:58.400
David?

904
00:48:58.400 --> 00:48:59.400
Yeah, yeah.

905
00:48:59.400 --> 00:49:03.400
Could I share something, or you can unmute me?

906
00:49:03.400 --> 00:49:05.400
Go ahead.

907
00:49:05.400 --> 00:49:14.600
I have struggled with this for so long because of my upbringing, until one year, and it was

908
00:49:14.600 --> 00:49:17.400
like half a year into this program.

909
00:49:17.400 --> 00:49:19.400
Wow.

910
00:49:19.400 --> 00:49:37.400
And, sorry, I understood what it meant and what it means, and I have a heavenly language,

911
00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:40.400
and I didn't know that I had one.

912
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:42.400
Wow.

913
00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:47.400
And when it comes out, like, I feel it.

914
00:49:47.400 --> 00:49:52.400
I feel what it means within me, but I don't have the words for it.

915
00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:53.400
Right?

916
00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:57.400
And so it's something else coming out of me.

917
00:49:57.400 --> 00:49:59.400
It's the Holy Spirit coming out of me.

918
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:02.200
Yeah, because I don't have the words for it.

919
00:50:03.400 --> 00:50:03.900
Yeah.

920
00:50:04.500 --> 00:50:07.900
And then when I was watching you tonight and you were saying

921
00:50:08.500 --> 00:50:12.100
about religion and everything and

922
00:50:13.600 --> 00:50:16.100
I have been really hurt by church.

923
00:50:17.300 --> 00:50:21.100
As well as a lot of people have and you looked into the camera

924
00:50:21.500 --> 00:50:22.000
and

925
00:50:25.300 --> 00:50:25.600
you

926
00:50:25.800 --> 00:50:26.100
Hmm.

927
00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:31.700
Sorry, you are sorry.

928
00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:36.900
With what you did whatever in that moment.

929
00:50:36.900 --> 00:50:38.400
It was supernatural

930
00:50:39.500 --> 00:50:40.200
and

931
00:50:40.800 --> 00:50:42.000
it released me

932
00:50:43.300 --> 00:50:46.880
from the pain that I've been caused for my ex-husband who

933
00:50:46.900 --> 00:50:47.800
was a minister.

934
00:50:48.400 --> 00:50:49.000
Wow.

935
00:50:49.500 --> 00:50:51.100
So I just want to thank you for that.

936
00:50:53.700 --> 00:50:54.700
So awesome.

937
00:50:54.700 --> 00:50:55.300
Yes.

938
00:50:56.600 --> 00:50:58.300
That's so awesome.

939
00:50:58.300 --> 00:51:01.100
Thank you for sharing that because that's so powerful.

940
00:51:01.400 --> 00:51:03.100
Thank you for allowing me to thank you.

941
00:51:03.500 --> 00:51:04.000
Yeah.

942
00:51:04.000 --> 00:51:05.700
No, thank you for sharing that.

943
00:51:06.100 --> 00:51:07.900
Like I said, so many people have

944
00:51:08.500 --> 00:51:11.280
have the sort of the church where they just heard but the

945
00:51:11.300 --> 00:51:12.100
same time

946
00:51:12.900 --> 00:51:16.100
so many of you are facing just so many obstacles.

947
00:51:16.400 --> 00:51:17.200
We all do

948
00:51:17.800 --> 00:51:19.900
we all face so many obstacles.

949
00:51:20.600 --> 00:51:24.800
There is there is one who is the enemy of your soul

950
00:51:25.400 --> 00:51:27.800
that wants more than anything for you to be destroyed.

951
00:51:27.800 --> 00:51:30.200
But I tell you what you have overcome

952
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:35.000
and you have overcome by the power of the spirit

953
00:51:35.700 --> 00:51:39.400
because the spirit of life and Christ Jesus has come into you

954
00:51:40.000 --> 00:51:43.900
tonight and as in a deeper way a special way

955
00:51:45.000 --> 00:51:48.200
to empower you to walk this out.

956
00:51:48.900 --> 00:51:52.480
There is a newness about you whether you feel it right now,

957
00:51:52.480 --> 00:51:55.460
you feel it later on maybe even tomorrow you wake up with

958
00:51:55.480 --> 00:51:57.860
sort of just a renewed like, oh my gosh, I don't know what

959
00:51:57.880 --> 00:51:59.280
that's kind of like different.

960
00:51:59.880 --> 00:52:01.780
The sun is going to shine brighter

961
00:52:02.280 --> 00:52:05.180
in a ways things are going to shift

962
00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:07.960
things are going to surprise you and I'm just speaking

963
00:52:07.980 --> 00:52:10.660
prophetically now because I really believe that this is

964
00:52:10.680 --> 00:52:11.980
necessary

965
00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:14.880
for some of you for you to see something

966
00:52:15.580 --> 00:52:19.460
just different whether it manifests tangibly or whether

967
00:52:19.480 --> 00:52:22.060
it's just something you feel that's just different about

968
00:52:22.060 --> 00:52:23.060
your life

969
00:52:23.360 --> 00:52:25.660
inside of you and your soul, whatever it is.

970
00:52:25.860 --> 00:52:28.240
I just prophetically speak that out that you are shifted

971
00:52:28.260 --> 00:52:29.860
tonight.

972
00:52:30.160 --> 00:52:32.560
Each one of you are beautiful.

973
00:52:32.860 --> 00:52:34.260
You are necessary.

974
00:52:34.360 --> 00:52:35.860
You are powerful.

975
00:52:36.160 --> 00:52:41.860
Your words bring change your actions make a difference.

976
00:52:41.960 --> 00:52:44.560
Your life is different now.

977
00:52:45.060 --> 00:52:47.160
Like Jackie says, I'm Jackie D.

978
00:52:47.360 --> 00:52:48.860
If you're new to me, welcome to me.

979
00:52:48.860 --> 00:52:50.060
Your life has changed now.

980
00:52:50.060 --> 00:52:51.260
Your life is different now.

981
00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:54.560
I'm telling you what your life is changed

982
00:52:55.460 --> 00:52:57.260
because God is good.

983
00:52:59.360 --> 00:52:59.960
Yep.

984
00:52:59.960 --> 00:53:03.160
Let me just practically what David's saying

985
00:53:03.560 --> 00:53:06.740
is like if my five-year-old niece was just here and if I

986
00:53:06.760 --> 00:53:07.560
tell her

987
00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:09.460
we're going to get a donut.

988
00:53:10.060 --> 00:53:11.160
She's like, yeah,

989
00:53:11.760 --> 00:53:12.460
she really is.

990
00:53:12.460 --> 00:53:13.260
I have a picture

991
00:53:13.760 --> 00:53:15.760
but she doesn't know how she's going to get there.

992
00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:16.860
She can't drive.

993
00:53:16.860 --> 00:53:18.160
She doesn't have money.

994
00:53:18.460 --> 00:53:21.860
Yeah, she receives that donut by faith.

995
00:53:22.160 --> 00:53:22.760
So

996
00:53:23.160 --> 00:53:27.340
all you have to do is receive what we prayed like a

997
00:53:27.360 --> 00:53:29.260
five-year-old receiving a donut.

998
00:53:29.260 --> 00:53:30.760
You don't need to know how

999
00:53:31.160 --> 00:53:33.360
you don't need to understand.

1000
00:53:33.760 --> 00:53:36.360
You just need to be like, thanks Jesus.

1001
00:53:36.460 --> 00:53:36.860
Thanks.

1002
00:53:36.860 --> 00:53:37.860
Holy Spirit.

1003
00:53:38.260 --> 00:53:40.560
And that's that's Hebrews 11.

1004
00:53:40.560 --> 00:53:44.140
But faith is being sure of what we hope for that like my

1005
00:53:44.160 --> 00:53:45.460
niece and the donut

1006
00:53:45.860 --> 00:53:47.360
and certain of what we do not see.

1007
00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:48.960
She has no idea how to get there.

1008
00:53:49.660 --> 00:53:52.160
Yeah, just receive it by faith.

1009
00:53:52.460 --> 00:53:55.940
And then if you haven't spoken in tongues yet, like Tim said,

1010
00:53:55.960 --> 00:53:56.760
like I said,

1011
00:53:57.160 --> 00:53:58.560
open your mouth

1012
00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:01.460
and speak in tongues by faith like

1013
00:54:01.860 --> 00:54:02.160
it's

1014
00:54:02.660 --> 00:54:04.060
you can't understand it.

1015
00:54:04.060 --> 00:54:05.760
If we understood

1016
00:54:06.660 --> 00:54:08.060
we'd be God and it says

1017
00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:12.140
Proverbs 3 5 trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean

1018
00:54:12.160 --> 00:54:15.160
not on your own understanding like permission

1019
00:54:15.660 --> 00:54:17.960
to not understand like Jesus.

1020
00:54:17.960 --> 00:54:18.460
I love that.

1021
00:54:18.460 --> 00:54:21.340
He wrote that in the scripture because he knew that we try to

1022
00:54:21.360 --> 00:54:22.460
understand

1023
00:54:23.160 --> 00:54:24.760
there's comfort in that.

1024
00:54:24.760 --> 00:54:27.340
So I just wanted to share that because sometimes it's that

1025
00:54:27.360 --> 00:54:29.760
practical step of like

1026
00:54:30.160 --> 00:54:33.040
so she's like, yes, and so when we're like you can speak in

1027
00:54:33.060 --> 00:54:33.460
tongues.

1028
00:54:33.460 --> 00:54:34.760
If you prayed for it tonight,

1029
00:54:34.960 --> 00:54:35.860
you just have to go.

1030
00:54:35.860 --> 00:54:38.960
Yes, turn your brain off and just agree with your spirit.

1031
00:54:39.560 --> 00:54:40.160
Yeah,

1032
00:54:40.660 --> 00:54:42.760
I'm telling you what your yes is dangerous.

1033
00:54:43.760 --> 00:54:45.260
And I had I tell that story.

1034
00:54:45.260 --> 00:54:45.760
I don't know if

1035
00:54:46.960 --> 00:54:49.440
most of you heard it, but I we had a homeless guy one time

1036
00:54:49.460 --> 00:54:51.740
and interrupted a conversation as meeting a new friend for

1037
00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:53.060
the first time in person

1038
00:54:53.460 --> 00:54:55.840
and we only had a few minutes to meet for coffee and this

1039
00:54:55.860 --> 00:54:58.360
homeless guy interrupted us or he was houseless,

1040
00:54:58.860 --> 00:54:59.760
but he was set by the Lord.

1041
00:54:59.760 --> 00:55:00.060
He's

1042
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:01.360
Like, hey, can I join your conversation?

1043
00:55:01.360 --> 00:55:03.240
Because I hear you talking about God.

1044
00:55:03.240 --> 00:55:04.560
And it's a long story short.

1045
00:55:04.560 --> 00:55:09.360
He tells this whole story about, you know, what God's doing in his life and so forth.

1046
00:55:09.360 --> 00:55:15.160
He said, you know what, I argued, I fought, I struggled, I resisted.

1047
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:17.880
I was quiet. I went away.

1048
00:55:17.880 --> 00:55:21.440
I came back. You know, he goes, but you can do all that.

1049
00:55:21.440 --> 00:55:23.560
Just don't say no to God.

1050
00:55:24.480 --> 00:55:27.840
That homeless guy, just that was his message is just don't say no.

1051
00:55:27.960 --> 00:55:32.680
And I don't want to the converse of that is your yes is dangerous.

1052
00:55:32.720 --> 00:55:35.280
It's not only powerful, but your yes is dangerous.

1053
00:55:35.680 --> 00:55:37.480
So when you say yes.

1054
00:55:38.880 --> 00:55:41.600
When you say yes, it's on.

1055
00:55:42.560 --> 00:55:43.560
It's going to happen.

1056
00:55:44.520 --> 00:55:48.840
Because God is faithful, he's just he's good.

1057
00:55:49.200 --> 00:55:53.200
He wants to make things happen in and through your life more than you want to.

1058
00:55:53.800 --> 00:55:56.840
So when you partner with heaven and you say yes.

1059
00:55:58.120 --> 00:55:58.880
It's happening.

1060
00:56:00.440 --> 00:56:06.240
So just be open, be receptive, be obedient in Jesus name.

1061
00:56:07.600 --> 00:56:10.240
Tim, do you have anything else for us to share tonight, brother?

1062
00:56:11.000 --> 00:56:12.680
No, no, no.

1063
00:56:12.720 --> 00:56:16.760
I think we accomplished what we set out to do.

1064
00:56:17.240 --> 00:56:18.960
Tim, I appreciate you being on here.

1065
00:56:19.640 --> 00:56:20.800
Check your chat, though.

1066
00:56:20.800 --> 00:56:24.920
Somebody had a question for you, Tim, and I direct messaged you or tagged you in it.

1067
00:56:25.320 --> 00:56:28.000
I can't remember what it was, and it was pretty far back.

1068
00:56:30.720 --> 00:56:35.600
It's actually mean it was about the difference between speaking in tongues

1069
00:56:35.600 --> 00:56:37.040
and speaking in worship.

1070
00:56:37.840 --> 00:56:40.200
Yeah, that was that was my question.

1071
00:56:43.560 --> 00:56:47.720
I think the difference between speaking in tongues and speaking in worship is the

1072
00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:52.920
in tongues and speaking in worship is the same difference between, you know,

1073
00:56:53.560 --> 00:56:55.240
praying and singing.

1074
00:56:56.360 --> 00:57:02.600
You know, you're you're you're still using your voice and, you know, you're

1075
00:57:03.080 --> 00:57:06.680
you're speaking when you're speaking in tongues, you're you're you're praying,

1076
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:09.000
just like I'm talking to you.

1077
00:57:09.800 --> 00:57:15.120
And then when you're when you're worshiping, you're you're you know, you're

1078
00:57:15.160 --> 00:57:16.160
singing in tongues.

1079
00:57:16.160 --> 00:57:21.040
You know, Paul Paul talks about in scripture, I'll pray with my spirit and pray

1080
00:57:21.040 --> 00:57:25.520
with my understanding. I'll sing with my spirit and I'll sing with my understanding.

1081
00:57:26.120 --> 00:57:27.120
You can do both.

1082
00:57:28.840 --> 00:57:29.840
Yeah.

1083
00:57:30.640 --> 00:57:33.680
Yeah, typically, I would say that in a singing

1084
00:57:35.520 --> 00:57:39.320
context, it is more of a worshipful moment.

1085
00:57:39.320 --> 00:57:44.520
So in in in what you're accomplishing or what you're doing is you're you're edifying

1086
00:57:44.520 --> 00:57:47.720
and you're worshiping, you're lifting up and you're praising and you're connecting

1087
00:57:47.720 --> 00:57:53.120
in the spirit. So it's a worshipful act as opposed to a prayerful act, which is more

1088
00:57:53.120 --> 00:57:56.800
declaration speaking, conversating in a way.

1089
00:57:56.800 --> 00:58:02.440
So we understand the difference between song and communication and speaking

1090
00:58:02.440 --> 00:58:04.360
communication, like the difference in the two.

1091
00:58:04.360 --> 00:58:05.400
They're just used.

1092
00:58:05.880 --> 00:58:07.360
They both communicate.

1093
00:58:07.680 --> 00:58:13.240
They both translate, but they do it in different ways

1094
00:58:13.240 --> 00:58:16.200
and for different reasons, I would say.

1095
00:58:19.520 --> 00:58:20.520
Thank you.

1096
00:58:21.560 --> 00:58:23.520
Any other questions on here that we missed?

1097
00:58:25.440 --> 00:58:28.560
I love this, I want to answer this, what if you don't feel anything, are you supposed to

1098
00:58:28.560 --> 00:58:32.440
feel the Holy Spirit? You can feel Holy Spirit, but you don't have to.

1099
00:58:33.400 --> 00:58:37.360
And I tell you what, if you if you journey with it.

1100
00:58:38.760 --> 00:58:43.880
And you're open to it, I believe that eventually you will, because I believe

1101
00:58:43.880 --> 00:58:48.600
that God is the God of your emotions as well, and I believe he uses your emotions to help

1102
00:58:48.600 --> 00:58:52.800
you, but it doesn't have to be emotional, doesn't have to be.

1103
00:58:52.800 --> 00:58:57.360
So don't be don't limit don't limit your experience by having to say, oh, this has to be

1104
00:58:57.360 --> 00:58:59.400
emotional. I have to feel something.

1105
00:58:59.600 --> 00:59:01.960
You don't have to feel something, but you can.

1106
00:59:03.360 --> 00:59:06.040
OK, thank you for answering that question.

1107
00:59:06.760 --> 00:59:08.280
So I have a question.

1108
00:59:09.320 --> 00:59:11.840
The spiritual language.

1109
00:59:13.080 --> 00:59:18.080
Your heavenly language is different than speaking in tongues where it's interpreted

1110
00:59:18.080 --> 00:59:21.000
for the body of Christ, correct?

1111
00:59:21.240 --> 00:59:26.960
Yeah, that was something that Tim addressed from the beginning that the gift of prophecy

1112
00:59:26.960 --> 00:59:32.520
and then like the gift of tongues and the interpretation of tongues is more of an

1113
00:59:32.520 --> 00:59:35.600
operation of a gift of the spirit.

1114
00:59:35.600 --> 00:59:39.680
Correct me if you want to add to this to clarify this.

1115
00:59:40.120 --> 00:59:44.600
And then you're speaking of your heavenly language, your own personal tongue is your

1116
00:59:44.600 --> 00:59:47.440
own personal prayer language.

1117
00:59:47.640 --> 00:59:49.120
Those are two different things.

1118
00:59:49.120 --> 00:59:51.040
Like that's the apples and the oranges things.

1119
00:59:51.520 --> 00:59:55.640
That's right. Is apples and your own prayer languages.

1120
00:59:55.640 --> 00:59:57.600
Oranges is two totally different things.

1121
00:59:57.920 --> 01:00:00.040
That's right. The gift of tongues in first.

1122
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.960
Corinthians 12 and 14, that is for when you're in a body of believers somewhere.

1123
01:00:05.600 --> 01:00:12.080
It doesn't necessarily have to be a church, but you could be in a church or a house group

1124
01:00:12.080 --> 01:00:19.680
or something like that, and somebody stands up and they have a word in tongues, you know,

1125
01:00:19.680 --> 01:00:25.200
and they rattle off in tongues, and then somebody else stands up and says, hey, I think I have the

1126
01:00:25.200 --> 01:00:34.720
interpretation of that, and that's very valid to happen in, you know, any kind of meeting between

1127
01:00:34.720 --> 01:00:41.840
believers, and usually if there is an utterance in tongues in a meeting of believers, it does

1128
01:00:41.840 --> 01:00:48.720
need to be interpreted, but your prayer language doesn't necessarily have to have an interpretation

1129
01:00:48.720 --> 01:00:54.240
according to scripture. You're praying. Well, the way I would say it, like what Tom's

1130
01:00:54.240 --> 01:01:00.080
describing is like, are you addressing somebody with your tongue? If you're addressing, if I'm

1131
01:01:00.080 --> 01:01:06.240
speaking to all of you right now directly in tongues, and there's a message, that's when the

1132
01:01:06.240 --> 01:01:11.680
interpretation of tongues, but like earlier, we all unmuted. We were just all praying in tongues. We

1133
01:01:11.680 --> 01:01:18.000
weren't addressing each other, and so that's the difference, because I've seen some people get

1134
01:01:18.000 --> 01:01:24.720
afraid to pray in tongues around other people, and it's the intention of the tongue, like am I

1135
01:01:24.720 --> 01:01:32.400
just praying, or am I speaking to Tim? Right now, I'm speaking to Tim, but if I was just, do you see

1136
01:01:32.400 --> 01:01:38.160
the difference? It's like if I'm just praying and somebody hears me, that's different than if I'm

1137
01:01:38.160 --> 01:01:45.280
in front of a group talking in tongues, delivering a message in tongues. That would be the interpretation

1138
01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:49.200
of tongues. Yeah, and there's a couple of people, there's a couple other questions on here I want to

1139
01:01:49.200 --> 01:01:55.360
address too. If you speak in tongues or you have spoken in tongues, if you received your

1140
01:01:55.360 --> 01:01:59.280
prayer language as kind of like, that's kind of how I say it, it's kind of like, hey, have you

1141
01:01:59.280 --> 01:02:03.520
received your prayer language yet? It's like, you know, have you learned how to speak your prayer

1142
01:02:03.520 --> 01:02:10.000
language or whatever? If you've done that, you've received that, but you don't feel motivated to do

1143
01:02:10.000 --> 01:02:15.680
it, and you don't feel like you do it enough, I just encourage you, just like Ephesians says,

1144
01:02:15.680 --> 01:02:22.640
to use it or increase in it by reason of use. It increases the more you use it, but sometimes it's

1145
01:02:22.640 --> 01:02:27.360
just an act of your will. Sometimes it's like, you know what, I should really do this because,

1146
01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:32.640
not because I feel guilty, like, oh, I don't do this enough, I should do this, like I'm going to

1147
01:02:32.640 --> 01:02:40.480
be labored. That's not the invitation. The invitation is, hey, you have this resource, you

1148
01:02:40.480 --> 01:02:46.400
have this ability, you have this connection point, this is a gift, like a gift should be a blessing

1149
01:02:46.400 --> 01:02:52.000
to you, right? So you should be like, you know what, I really should use this gift. Like, what's the

1150
01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:57.200
point of having a hundred dollar gift card if you never use it? It's like, there's no point. That's

1151
01:02:57.200 --> 01:03:01.680
a good word. Like, why would you have a gift card? Someone gives you a gift card for your birthday,

1152
01:03:01.680 --> 01:03:06.320
you just let it sit in your wallet. I've done that. Like, my family gives me gift cards and

1153
01:03:06.320 --> 01:03:12.640
they're like, dad, why didn't you use this gift card? Like, are you not smart or something? Like,

1154
01:03:12.640 --> 01:03:17.840
go use this gift card and get yourself a present. Like, it doesn't make any sense to have a gift

1155
01:03:17.840 --> 01:03:23.920
card somebody gives you and you don't use it. So I'm not calling you, like, I'm not calling you

1156
01:03:23.920 --> 01:03:30.560
dumb. I'm just saying like, look, I'm just like, oh my gosh, you have this ability. Sometimes you

1157
01:03:30.560 --> 01:03:35.920
come to yourself and you go, you know what? I probably should use this. I probably should,

1158
01:03:35.920 --> 01:03:43.040
like, speak in tongues. I'll just try this and see what happens. And you know what? I'll start

1159
01:03:43.040 --> 01:03:51.040
doing stuff. And the gift cards of God do not expire. That's right. They don't expire. And you

1160
01:03:51.040 --> 01:03:58.400
don't have to have a pin number either. And you don't have to have a pin number. And they typically

1161
01:03:58.400 --> 01:04:03.600
buy more than the card looks like it's going to buy. Yeah, they're usually more valuable than.

1162
01:04:05.280 --> 01:04:11.520
Is it appropriate to speak in church and in private? Obviously, you know, it's just kind of

1163
01:04:11.520 --> 01:04:17.120
like, it's at that point, it's just kind of like manners. You know, if the preacher's up preaching

1164
01:04:17.120 --> 01:04:20.560
and you're in church and you're just sitting there and things are quiet and somebody's speaking,

1165
01:04:20.560 --> 01:04:26.560
it's probably bad manners to probably just like blurt out in tongues, even though I've seen that

1166
01:04:26.560 --> 01:04:33.040
happen before. And it wasn't really the spirit. And I've seen it happen before where it kind of

1167
01:04:33.040 --> 01:04:37.600
was like a sovereign thing. So I'm not saying it's not. I'm just saying it's just use your

1168
01:04:37.600 --> 01:04:43.280
manners in that way. It's more of a manners sort of thing situation. So when is it appropriate?

1169
01:04:43.280 --> 01:04:48.240
Well, it's appropriate. I oftentimes speak in tongues under my breath when I'm walking around

1170
01:04:48.240 --> 01:04:52.240
at the grocery store because I'm trying to activate something. I'm trying to understand

1171
01:04:52.240 --> 01:04:59.920
something or I'm praying about something. So it is in full capacity of the believer.

1172
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:05.000
It is your gift to use as you will

1173
01:05:06.160 --> 01:05:09.400
under the direction and power of Holy Spirit.

1174
01:05:10.320 --> 01:05:12.240
Yeah, and I like what Tim said earlier

1175
01:05:12.240 --> 01:05:14.520
about it being a muscle.

1176
01:05:14.520 --> 01:05:17.240
Because the prophetic words of knowledge,

1177
01:05:17.240 --> 01:05:20.360
praying for healing, like if you never pray for healing,

1178
01:05:20.360 --> 01:05:22.280
you're never gonna see anyone healed.

1179
01:05:22.280 --> 01:05:23.120
You know what I mean?

1180
01:05:23.120 --> 01:05:24.480
It's like a muscle that we have to use.

1181
01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:28.040
If I give you a guitar and you never pick it up

1182
01:05:28.040 --> 01:05:30.160
and learn how to play it, you have the gift,

1183
01:05:30.160 --> 01:05:31.800
but it's useless.

1184
01:05:31.800 --> 01:05:34.240
So we have to exercise the gifts

1185
01:05:35.800 --> 01:05:38.320
and practice crossing the chicken line.

1186
01:05:39.160 --> 01:05:42.200
Yeah, that's good, that's good.

1187
01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:46.480
So good.

1188
01:05:49.080 --> 01:05:54.080
I don't wanna see if there's any other questions

1189
01:05:54.360 --> 01:05:56.720
that we're sort of missing out.

1190
01:05:56.760 --> 01:05:58.240
I think we're good.

1191
01:06:00.600 --> 01:06:01.440
All right.

1192
01:06:02.520 --> 01:06:04.040
Yeah, and this is an awesome,

1193
01:06:04.040 --> 01:06:06.920
this is, somebody was talking about the brain.

1194
01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:09.800
The gift of speaking in tongues

1195
01:06:09.800 --> 01:06:14.200
is also a helpful way to bypass the brain.

1196
01:06:14.200 --> 01:06:16.600
Because sometimes our brains can get really

1197
01:06:16.600 --> 01:06:17.920
like in the way of things,

1198
01:06:17.920 --> 01:06:21.160
because we can, you know, get in our own way.

1199
01:06:21.160 --> 01:06:23.040
This is kind of like going back to the heart work stuff,

1200
01:06:23.080 --> 01:06:25.320
to where our brains can be like

1201
01:06:25.320 --> 01:06:27.280
going a million miles a second,

1202
01:06:27.280 --> 01:06:28.800
thinking about all the different things

1203
01:06:28.800 --> 01:06:31.520
or we're stressed out or anxious about something.

1204
01:06:31.520 --> 01:06:36.440
Tongues sometimes can be a way to sort of bypass that

1205
01:06:36.440 --> 01:06:40.480
and not have to think about the ramifications

1206
01:06:40.480 --> 01:06:43.200
or all of the implications of what's going on

1207
01:06:43.200 --> 01:06:44.040
and what it is.

1208
01:06:44.040 --> 01:06:47.520
Tongues can be a way to sort of bring peace

1209
01:06:47.520 --> 01:06:50.880
and bring a settling to your mind

1210
01:06:50.880 --> 01:06:53.480
and to bring you into sort of that focus

1211
01:06:53.480 --> 01:06:55.400
and flow of the spirit that you need

1212
01:06:55.400 --> 01:06:58.080
in order to navigate the situation.

1213
01:06:58.080 --> 01:07:01.840
And so tongues can be a great way to center yourself

1214
01:07:01.840 --> 01:07:03.960
and to bring yourself into alignment.

1215
01:07:11.320 --> 01:07:12.880
Amen.

1216
01:07:12.880 --> 01:07:14.480
Okay.

1217
01:07:14.480 --> 01:07:16.400
Guys, God bless you.

1218
01:07:16.400 --> 01:07:18.800
I just want to say this has been a great session.

1219
01:07:18.800 --> 01:07:20.600
Thank you, Tim, for being here.

1220
01:07:21.280 --> 01:07:22.120
Thank you, Sarah, for being here.

1221
01:07:22.120 --> 01:07:24.160
Of course, Sarah, you lead this on Sunday nights.

1222
01:07:24.160 --> 01:07:26.520
I really appreciate you guys and your ministry.

1223
01:07:26.520 --> 01:07:29.160
I bless you all.

1224
01:07:29.160 --> 01:07:31.240
Thank you for your words of wisdom.

1225
01:07:31.240 --> 01:07:33.360
Thank you for those of you that shared your own

1226
01:07:33.360 --> 01:07:36.480
from your own heart and your own stories.

1227
01:07:36.480 --> 01:07:39.560
And I just bless each and every one of you tonight.

1228
01:07:39.560 --> 01:07:41.960
I just thank you, Lord, that we have this moment together,

1229
01:07:41.960 --> 01:07:43.720
over 200 people tonight,

1230
01:07:43.720 --> 01:07:48.720
just gathered by this amazing means of technology

1231
01:07:49.040 --> 01:07:51.200
that we're using for righteousness.

1232
01:07:51.200 --> 01:07:52.880
And I just thank you right now, Lord,

1233
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:56.080
for what you're doing in the lives of every single member,

1234
01:07:56.080 --> 01:07:58.200
every single person that's been touched by this,

1235
01:07:58.200 --> 01:08:00.960
or will they see this made possibly in replay.

1236
01:08:00.960 --> 01:08:02.960
In the name of Jesus, I just bless you.

1237
01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:04.200
I speak life over you.

1238
01:08:04.200 --> 01:08:06.320
I speak health and strength over you.

1239
01:08:06.320 --> 01:08:10.680
I speak a shift and impact in Jesus' name.

1240
01:08:10.680 --> 01:08:13.080
I thank you right now, Holy Spirit.

1241
01:08:13.080 --> 01:08:15.160
We thank you for just you being you

1242
01:08:15.160 --> 01:08:17.359
and just being awesome the way you are.

1243
01:08:17.359 --> 01:08:21.760
Lead us and guide us and show us where to go from here.

1244
01:08:21.760 --> 01:08:25.800
In Jesus' name we pray, amen, amen.

1245
01:08:27.680 --> 01:08:28.760
God bless you guys.

1246
01:08:28.760 --> 01:08:32.120
Have a great week until we see you next time.
