ongoing legacy of the patriarch of this great work thank God for Archbishop laud a proud in his physical absence yet spiritual presence praise God for him and certainly we are grateful for this son

with us tonight we thank you elder Craig for serving with us I again consider it such an honor to be in your midst and I'm not going to hold you on your feet much longer so much has already gone a prayer extensive prayer has already gone up I just like to come into agreement with the prayer that's already been lifted I got excited when I heard that tomorrow is prayer day because the scripture is absolutely right for us when the scripture says that men ought always to pray and not to faint and in an era such as this if we ever needed to call on God we need to call on him now this most influential historic and cosmopolitan city of Chicago since in the in many ways the vortex of so much that's happening culturally and otherwise in our nation how appropriate it is for pilgrim assemblies at this beginning of the second half of the year to be anchored and situated in this city and from this city to send forth intercession and descend for the supplication and to send forth prophetic and apostolic decrees and declarations believe in God that he will ship this nation in the direction that pleases him can you say Amen this is an hour such as what we've never seen before and we want to make the most of it let's pray together now father it is in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth that we come we don't come Lord God to negate the prayer that is already gone up we come to add fade to the faith that has already been lifted we come Lord to add oh God further to the forego that has already been expressed but you save the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth lunch we simply come Lord to say to you in this hour thank you for the privilege of being a part of what you are doing empirical assemblies and in the body of Christ at large I acknowledge father that without you I am nothing and that without you I can do nothing but Oh God with you all things are possible to him that believeth and more I do believe I ask that you help thou mine unbelief and as we move into this time of sharing we ask your God to give unto us a french the tongue of the learner that we made know how to speak a word in season to him that is wearing waking us this very moment awaken our ear to hear as the learner let me be washed afresh in the blood of Jesus and the water of the world clad afresh with the whole armour of God that everything that you desire to be accomplished will be accomplished and for all of this we take authority of every spirit and call it subject to the Word of God to the Holy Ghost to the blood and to the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth be valid saws that we pray and we will be careful to give you the glory the honor and the praise in Jesus name everybody who loves and praise him together will you let's praise him if you agree with that prayer Hey praise him if you agree with that prayer I'd like to ask you just before you see that this is the final thing before you see it I'd like to ask since you're already saying it and we're just going to speak what she's saying earlier speak over three lives at one time and say to them I believe there's something good is about to happen to you and after you've spoken over the third individual speaking over your own lives I believe there's something good is about to happen to me and once you spoken that you may be seated [Music] hallelujah thank God for Jesus I want to call your attention to two places in the scripture the book of Ecclesiastes chapter 3 the book of Ecclesiastes chapter 3 and verse 1 and then the book of Acts chapter 1 amen the book Ecclesiastes chapter 3 and in the book of Acts chapter 1 three at one of the book of ecclesiastes reads as follows to everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven and then the book of Acts chapter 1 the book of Acts chapter 1 verse 1 the former treatise have I'm a dopey Ovilus of all that Jesus began both to do and teach I'd like to call this tonight title of two short components first a phrase to manage a moment then what one might call an imperative finish it to manage a moment : finish it someone say to manage a moment finish it to manage a moment finish it may God may God have mercy to manage a moment finish it when when we say and use the term moment we're speaking about an indefinite and yet determinate period of time indefinite and that only in the omniscience of God are we sure exactly the length so it's indefinite but it is determinate an unspecified length but a determinate era in time speaking of time time is a convention a framework a point of reference that God instituted apparently for the good of creatures because creatures have a beginning as the creator he is eternal has no beginning he is the one to whom the Fox psalmist refers as from everlasting to everlasting he is eternal but he constructed time as a framework of reference for existence and fulfillment of purpose we're creatures are concerned time is not timeless time has been even understood by the physicist to have limitation time-space continuum actually is being shown to be what we would call material to the extent that it can be stretched and it can be contracted there are physicists who are literally working now upon the premise that since time is more limited than they once thought that it may be possible one day to actually time travel that is because time has been determined to be finite I think about that because I marvel and i exalt in the fact that our God is timeless I was reflecting just this afternoon about the fact that he is the cause of all things and yet he is the uncaused to call he is what Aristotle calls the prime mover he is the one who ignites motion in the universe and yet he himself is moved by nothing and no one he is the only one who makes logical sense out of cause and effect every effect and we look around us and we see the cosmos every effect has a cause but then our God is larger than effect he is the uncaused call that that's absolutely logical because one cannot have an indefinite recession oh the causes at some point there has to be something initiating the causes the dominoes cannot all fall and interact with one another without there being some force to initiate the fall uncaused calls and I'm grateful that we define that uncaused calls one who lives outside time one who is space less time less omnipotent and infinitely intelligent we refer to him as God and our God who is not limited by time because of the fact that he created creatures in His image after his likeness law to relate to him he gave us the framework called time as a part of reference so that we can measure our existence so that we can measure the progress and the process of being he simply am but we were are and shall be and so he a sliver of eternity and places it into our access and calls that a moment the matter of fact in the same book of Ecclesiastes chapter 3 verse 11 the Bible says that God has put the world in mankind's heart and the word translated world alarm there means eternity God has taken a sliver of eternity and place it in your spirit man haha and that means that there's an assignment that's connected to you and there's a you connected to an assignment and he has given us all of us a mandate to manage a moment how much has been said much has been said about time in the terms of time the Greek term Chronos simply being linear time and then the Greek term Kairos speaking of basic particular epoch a particular moment I want to talk to you about what then they might call Kairos because it is most definitely a particular moment history I find their books history pivots on moments aha there came a moment that came a moment in the lives of the citizens of the thirteen colonies of Britain they were on the eastern seaboard of North America that came a moment when they decided that no longer could they endure taxation without representation they came a moment when they felt that they could no longer quarter the British soldiers with them were taking advantage of their resources without any accountability and so they decided on that sweltering day July the 4th of 1776 that they would issue a statement called the Declaration of Independence ah ha and they said that that this we we we devote and we pledge our lives and our properties and liberties and our sacred honor in other words everything that we are we put it on the line to declare ourselves free from the British Empire and yet that declaration did not make them free that Declaration was the moment where warfare began to break out you see just because you declare a theme does not mean that it comes into manifestation it's after your declaration that the warfare begins whatever it is that's holding you in bondage is not planning on turning you loose just because you call yourself free but you're gonna have to realize that behind your Declaration of Independence it's gonna come a Revolutionary War there's gonna be a war there's going to be uh huh a wrestling not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers of the rulers of the darkness of this world history a pivotal moment we are American citizens right now the cause of that moment that moment Britain speaking of Britain women when are the Axis powers being led prevalently by Adolf Hitler and the hearts of Germany were as it were about to all the sweep all of Europe and they came to a little island called Britain does a ball headed podge little fella named Winston Churchill say you'll climb every Hill except Churchill he said we shall fight on the beaches we shall fight in the streets and we shall never surrender but but that declaration are was followed by warfare warfare but but Britain rose up in the moment not only that but I remember reading in the great book entitled bearing the cross a biography of the life of dr. Martin Luther King jr. that when he initially got involved with the civil rights activism there was a time when he was doubting whether or not he could go through with it after the bomb threats and after a phone call that night saying that his house with his wife and his newborn child we're going to be blown up that he's sitting in the kitchen with a cup of coffee some of you read the story saying lord I just want to do your will I'm just trying to do right and he said in that moment in that moment they said in that moment it was as if he heard a boy say stand up Martin Luther stand up for righteousness stand up for justice he said he heard the Lord saying Lord with you always even to the end of the world and those of us who are African descent today while in the level of liberty and privilege that we want man because of a moment in the life of a little Baptist preacher history pivots on moments somebodies a history if it's history turns on moments not only so but since the fall and since God's program of redemption and restoration God has always created and always brought into existence a man for a moment I hug them that the times are in God's hands but he always creates a man for a moment aha creates a man for a particular season where there's something that he desires to accomplish he desired that his will would be manifest in the earth he always brings a man onto the scene uh-huh yes he always does as a matter of fact when we use the term managed in the in sense of managing a moment if we would talk about the word manage for a moment it would take us to Genesis 1:26 where the Bible said let us make man let us make man in our image God is speaking to God saying let us make man in our image after our likeness and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and to make a long story short using the words of Psalm 8 over all the works of his hand yes he creates man and by speaking mankind into existence male and female when I say man I don't just mean the male I mean mankind he creates man and gives him I give them the Bible said in the image of God verse 27 says so in the image of God so created man so God created man in his own image in the image of God created he him male and female created he them she's not an afterthought male and female created he them and God blessed them and God said to them be fruitful and multiply I don't want to go out there but I need to say it again I said she is not an afterthought she is in the will of God in the very moment the male and the female are created simultaneously in Genesis chapter one they are form sequentially in Genesis chapter 2 but there's a fundamental difference between creation and formation haha in Genesis chapter while we are looking at the divine order in chapter 2 we are looking at the domestic order simultaneous in the divine sequential in the domestic and so don't you ever allow the enemy sister to make you feel as if you're a second-class citizen you are the predetermined counsel of God it flash just as the male is in the image of God created he them and whatever he gave to him he came to them he blessed them and he said to them be fruitful he said to them multiply he said to them subdue the earth replenish the earth subdue it and he said to them I have dominion yeah he said it to them and so God creates then uh a human being for for a moment where he's going to reveal his power uh-huh but then after he creates and notice notice this now notice that when he creates he speaks in large terms when he creates he says let them have dominion over the whole earth that's what he does when he creates but when he farms the skull changes uh because god no on it creates a man for a moment that is a human being for a moment but then he also develops the man for the moment yeah now creation is the easy part because he just speaks and the spirit of the man comes into existence the formation he Stoops may I speak here now he scopes her AHA yes he created everything in Genesis one by speaking but he forms this party and chapter two by stooping huh and the Bible says he farmed the man from the dust the ground if you teach the kingdom you've heard me say this before but it'll bear one more definitely one more saying what more iteration as it were he far Adam the Bible says from Adama he dawn the man from the dust of the ground he literally fonda Adam from Adama I am from a PA mah why is it that he farms I darn from Adama and it because Adama is where the man is the Dominator and you can't rule over what you're not connected to you cannot exercise Dominion thank you sir I thought about the man don't make it on the earth God gives him a house comprised of Earth the man is not earth the man is spirit even as God is spirit but God build an earth house and blows the spirit of the man into the body of the man so that the man may exercise Dominion on the earth because you cannot exercise Dominion in a territory without a domicile in that territory in other words in order for you to be the senator in Washington are in the Washington State you must have a residence in Washington State thought about of the how demanded on the earth he has to have a rest dancehall and legal rasa oh the earth uh-huh what I got I got a illustration when he created mankind he created mankind in himself every time God created these sparks of the place where the bang that he was creating was to come into existence so he spoke to the darkness and the light appeared there he spoke to the water and the Tri crown appeared there he small to the dry ground and the herbs and the plants appeared these fall to the ground again the four-footed beasts appeared they spoke to the water and the fish came for but notice that when he graced man he does not speak to the earth he don't speak to the sky they don't speak to the water this leads to himself and when God spoke to himself mankind came into existence inside God so the first place you existed was not in the scrotum of your father and not in the womb of your mother but here the Spirit of God there's the first place [Music] [Applause] and that's why you gotta be born again you came out of God the first time now you gotta go back in where you came out and therefore if any man be that's not what happens in chapter 2 is that the man that God has created male and female that is created in Chapter 1 he stills now and bridge at the house that he formed in chapter 2 in order for this spirit being to have earthly influence shake somebody's hands and that's what I've been trying to tell you I'm a spirit being exercising earthly Emperor the word form you may be seated let's look at the word form from chapter 2 the word form God for a man Genesis 2 and 7 forming from the dust of the ground the word form there is yachts awe and yachts are means to squeeze like a pot it means to go through the process of making pottery how many understand that even though God spoke ah the entire globe as your destiny in Chapter one now he's putting the squeeze on you in Chapter two and after he puts the squeeze on the man that he could promise the globe to in chapter one it gives him a garden in Chapter two now wait a minute he promised me the globe give me a garden what do you do when what God told you and where you are don't resemble one another what do you do when the scale and the scope of the word that you know this on your life does not resemble the confinement and the limitation that you find yourself in day by day when what do you do when your day to day does not resemble your destiny that's what I'm saying he told me global he gave me garden yeah yeah yeah yeah there's somebody under the sound of my voice right now who's living a life of frustration because you know God promised you our global move and you're still in a garden what you hear it's smaller than what's in you that's what I'm saying man that you're in does not represent the capacity that you have within you you're dreaming bigger you're envisioning bigger you're imagining bigger you're drawing bigger you're planning bigger you're designing bigger because you know he said globes are your spirit but your earthly experience is garden why is that it because God is developing a man for the moment mm-hmm and in order for you to exercise dominion which is responsibility you know it's amazing to me how the body of Christ goes off on this Dominion kick and think that Dominion thinks that Dominion means to boss people around trample on people to exploit and manipulate Dominion Bible Bible Dominion Kingdom Dominion has to do with having responsibility with the corresponding authority God never gives a man a woman authority until they understand responsibility you don't give your child the car authority without them understanding responsibili no key until you get the license the license is proof that you have responsibility before you are getting the keys which says you have authority there books all over the place and seminars and conferences call the authority of the believer but if you've ever seen a book entitled the responsibility sister do not give y'all the keys to a man who does not yet understand responsibility the Manion is responsibility with the corresponding I thought or in a word stewardship and a synonym the stewardship is management in other words God said Adam I'm gonna make you manage everything that I've created I'm gonna make you manager over everything that I've created and it sounds good in Chapter 1 because everybody's talking global but in chapter 2 he starts talking about a job he planned the garden eastward in Eden and there he placed the man whom he had formed to dress it and keep it that's the job he promised me to globe I promised him I leave this he promised me the globe but he placed me in a garden he promised me an international ministry but I'm a member of the Usher board he said I'm gonna have an international teaching ministry but I am the children's son let's go teacher ha ha that's the contrast between the globe in the garden but remember this that in order for you to be prepared for the clue he's gonna process you in the garden the garden is rehearsal the garden is rehearsal the garden is rehearsal the garden is rehearsal the garden is rehearsal I said this way the garden is God giving you a chance to practice with a pencil aha God wants to give you the opportunity to practice with a pencil because a pencil as an eraser don't let you make up mistakes where they don't count please know that you make on the stage before mmm pickle my job as they let you make your mistake before there's a scandal he's gonna let you make a mistake before CNN know who you are please don't let you make your mistakes [Music] anybody great but that he lets you write with a pencil uh-huh some master that's you made that bang a bit red and hit you to bed and drop oh ha ha but darling thank you sir he develops in the man the understanding of stewardship says I'm coming he creates a man for a moment then he develops the man for the moment you see that he creates the man for the moment then he develops the man for the moment then he sets up the moment after he's created a man for the moment and after he's developed that man with a sense of stewardship can I go back there just for a moment management in kingdom is stewardship stewardship is management management is stewardship stewardship is management those terms are interchangeable and they both suggest that I am handling what I don't own aha now something would happen to the church if we came to understand that we own nothing this whole territorial spirit that we had this whole envy and competition spirit would be eliminated if we understood that we have stewardship not ownership that anything that God has given us he's given us to handle it but it's not ours to own and so it's not much there's not my members it's not my ministry my ministry quad director there's not my client son let's go teacher there's not my son mr. superintendent there's my Sunday school you are separate the manager you are sampling the steward hero it all belongs to God if you didn't hear me preach anything else to die tonight that line would be good enough by itself say after me at all belongs to God haven't you heard us saying haven't you heard of saying haven't you heard us say that the first time when you hear stewardship being taught you know most often but when your stewardship in the church it's about money aha somebody did have a series of lessons on stewardship people grab their pocketbook grab their wallet grab the card go there get ready to talk about money let's talk about money for just a moment how many of heard the Saints say that I understand that the first time and every dollar belongs to God raise your hand you ever heard that first time and every dollar belongs to God and most of us believe or at least we go act like we believe tonight that every dime the first time not every dollar belongs you got how most of us most of us believe that don't with Willy come on that's minimum we least we pepper well I came to find out that that's an erroneous teaching I came to find out but that's improper management uh-huh I came to find out but that's what's wrong with us we know how to manage the 10% aha because we believe that belongs to God but we got the misconception that the 90% belongs to us and that's why we can't give any a powerful while we're there with it but we think that the not it was that belongs to us but when we understand that the whole dollar belongs to God and when we are just as devout and taking care of another person as we are taking care of the cat person we're going to walk in the manifestation of the blessing of God I'm issue is window what to do with the 10% we just don't know how to handle the nine we manage the 10 and we mess manage the nine and then we clean we're gonna be blessed you're gonna be blessed wasting 90% of God's resources to manage a moment Hiep history pivots on moments God gave us time God creates a man for a moment God develops a man for a moment by giving him an understanding of stewardship that is management then the next point God sets up moments I want to tell you that the reason why you need to let God finish processing you because he is preparing a moment for you there is an encounter that's going to hit your life that's going to change everything those of you under the sound of my voice who have come to holy convocation do you really think you God let you invest the money to get a ticket on to get on a train to take the bus or whatever other means do you think God allowed you to waste that resource and waste that time that you had to take just to get here and see what one another is wearing what one another is uh singing now no to the contrary my dear brother and my dear sister God is setting up for you a moment there is going to be an encounter in your life is going to be an encounter with a place an encounter with a purpose an encounter with the thing an encounter with a person and is going to shift the trajectory of the rest of your life and the reason why God has been on your back about your consecration the reason why God has been at your back about you getting your prayer life in order the reason why God will not let you and whole heart like you used to it because God I have a moment set up for you and you can't play the time to play him that you used to play you can't caught the guy I might not be talking to everybody what I'm talking to somebody uh-huh you cannot afford to play like you've been playing because time is moving you towards your moment and moving your mama towards you and God says I cannot afford to let you miss this moment because this is what I created you for this is what I've been processing you for everything that is a season under the heavens you are my purpose I put you under to heaven and there's a time moving in your direction thank you there is a moment waiting on you tell somebody there yeah there is a moment that's waiting on you that's why you don't have to rub shoulders shut and kiss up I try to make yourself something that's you're not just let God finish preparing you because he knows how to set up your moment huh thank you sir hey he knows how to let your your feet cross the path of an influencer who can move you to the next level he knows how to set you up to have an encounter with someone who has the resources and the wherewithal to bring the past what God put in your belly God will not have given you a dream and not have put the resources in the earth to help bring that dream to pass it's not the problem of God getting the dream ready for you the problem is God getting you ready for the fulfillment of the dream your brothers and their sisters I'm moving toward the close thank you Father I need you to understand that God will set up a moment for you would you tell someone near you be not weary in well-doing because God is setting up a moment for you ah you've been wondering when God is going to expose you you've been wondering when God is going to pull back the curtain and let others see what he's been cultivating in you over this period of years huh I got all these songs God when are we going to sing them huh I've got this book Lord when am I going to be able to publish and I've got all these messages but I have nowhere to preach don't you know that if God gave it to you he didn't give you something for nothing if he's put a deposit in you he's gonna place the demand on that supply huh thank you sir in the economy of God anytime there is a divine supply he'll set up a divine demand what I need you to understand is that sometimes the people that you're in the midst of right now are not the ones who are supposed to be demanding what you have to supply I see sometimes the people that you know it's not the audience that God gave you the song for this is not the audience that God gave you the book for there's not the audience that God gave you the business for and so stop trying to push yourself off Oh folk who don't have an appetite oh poor what you cook God somebody's sitting at a table with a knife and a fork and a plate right as I watch you go serve not only that not only that lord help me tonight but sometimes huh God will grow you in Nazareth ha but here glory are you in Capernaum huh yeah you remember Jesus don't you he grew up in Nazareth ha and the only thing they could see is Joseph's son huh and so in order for him to grow manifest clothes he had to relocate from Nazareth took a perm not 30 years in Nazareth huh no lame walks no blind saw ha ha no dumb people talk but he can't get the Capernaum huh before I warm away there's your bluff come and grab him in the street huh and get her miracle tiara stop yes her miracle and the blind get that miracle huh god dammit Julia in Ostrava but you don't manifested in Capernaum thank you sir he's setting up a moment for you tell somebody he's setting up a moment for here I don't hear you saying it with power tell somebody he's setting up a moment for you yeah thank you son he set up huh a moment for him huh the question is not are you gonna have a moment I promise you if you're faithful you gonna have a moment you don't have to worry about brown-nosing thank you sir you don't have to worry about that your name make it to the marquee you don't have to worry if they called your name at the end of the program God is setting up a moment for you uh-huh and the thing I like about it that even if their fault that's right to act as if you don't pout God will reveal you even when they're tryna hold that right there now my dear brothers and my dear sisters he's setting up a moment for you the challenge is not the moment the challenge is the management of the moment the challenge is not is your moment going to come or your moment is coming some of you your moment is upon you right now the challenge is will you be equipped to manage the moment uh-huh let's take a look at Joseph for example ah God God put him in a position that Schneider didn't look like his destiny he had those wonderful dreams didn't dream so vivid but even his brothers could interpret their father could interpret them and yet the Bible says that he ends up in a pit he ends up in a pit environment from the pit he ends up being sold into slavery in the house of Potiphar from the house of Potiphar he sup in prison god I thought you showed me the global and now I can't even get a good garden experience car yeah but remember I created you for the moment now I'm processing you for the moment I told you that the garden is rehearsal say what God wants to do is get the principal's in you in the small scale you will be able to scale it up in practice in the large scale but the principal's never change it's almost like mr. Miyagi on the karate kid do you remember when the fellow said you're gonna teach me uh-huh you gonna teach me martial arts huh mr. Miyagi say sure go wash my car huh yeah and then I want you to wax about car huh say but now when you wash it wax my car huh you can't do it the way you wanna do it you gotta do it the way I said do well how do you want me to do it Miyagi wax on wax off you know the bar get it Becerra monster and now the daddy got frustrated at me yogi I thought you were gonna make me a martial artist I thought you were gonna teach me how to defeat my enemy shut oh you got me doing this being a frog here washing it waxing your car Miyagi to get man with him huh he said what did I tell you - doing the waxing huh he said wax on wax off you said what you didn't know that the fundamentals of all the martial arts is contained in these motions wax on and wax off huh another word the lesson that you learn at the Garden will take you to the globe you know what I said T huh I got you in rehearsal right now but if you can master this level I'm gonna take you up to the next level tell somebody why it's hard [Music] ah thank you sir huh Oh Joseph but whatever Joseph lands he ends up managing he lands in Potiphar's house and in some manner gee he lands in the prison huh and ends up managing huh God what are you doing to me huh wax on wax off why God huh because I'm setting up a moment Chuck how long do I have to wait huh well let me tell you like this I've got a baker and a butler in the prison with you huh and you go interpret their dreams sir thank you sir and the banks you go get by interpreting the butler's dream correctly huh don't forget you the reason why I'll never forget you huh they call this two years before your moment if I let him remember you now have you ever had anybody promise you huh man I'm gonna look you up and I'm gonna hook you up cuz I see the call of God on your laptop that book you got I'm gonna help you get it published yeah that song you got I'm gonna put every single in a CD they told you that and then they forgot you the reason whatever doctor they don't God gave them on case of divine amnesia and the reason why he did gave him that case of divine amnesia if the call if they had remembered too then they would take the credit for you coming out of prison [Music] that's the one thing if the butler had remembered Joseph and Joseph had gotten out of prison the butler could have taken the credit but all Joseph would have gotten out of that was a one-way all-expenses-paid camel ride back the kingdom [Music] God said that's not what I set up for you so I'm gonna let you wait two more years I don't know how much longer somebody in here is gonna have to wait but I promise you this it'll be worth the wait right lord I bless your name tell somebody near you it will be worth the wait I didn't hear about I believe this two years now Farrell has a dream sure Joseph is still in the prison and the butler has no thought of Joseph on tier Pharaoh has a dream I want to prophesied to this house in your cities and in your stage there are Pharaoh's who are dreaming in your career in your discipline in your profession there are superiors there are supervisors there presidents that share persons there are people who have more rank and more money and more Fame than you ever had and God is sovereign Lee giving them a dream that God is going to fix it that nobody around them can't interpret it because he's going to make you an indispensable resource in the life of a pharaoh I feel like laying my hands right now there's somebody in City Council there's somebody in the mayor's office there's somebody in the Senate in the House of Representative the State Department of Education that's about to call on you because nobody else can interpret their dream they have a dream of no violence in the streets they have a dream of children learning how to read by third grade they have a dream of your women learning how to be mothers but they don't know how to interpret that dream the world is looking to the charge and this hour more than it ever has in its history this is your moment this is your moment this is your moment in the Bible says Bible says that now Pharaoh has a dream and the butler who forgot him remembers him I says oh my god Pharaoh two years ago there this felt in the prison cell in the prison he interpreted my dream in the dream of the butler the butler's no longer with us he told us it would be that way I'm back he told me it would be that way I believe if you call for him if you call for him he'll be able to interpret your dream how many know Joseph is a Hebrew Pharaoh is an Egyptian culture you got to understand that when God sets a moment up for you you've got to know how to not be an individual that calls us culture shock you got to know how to be an agent of culture shift your Hebrew ha Hebrews by culture or Harry but my coaching Egyptians are clean-shaven huh so before you go to Pharaoh shave another word sir there's a new platform that God is gonna put you on you gotta be prepared to occupy that platform it means you gotta get the soft skills necessary you gotta understand the protocol than a NASA sir you've even got to get the credentials necessary now you got the whole day cause you got the anointing now you gotta get your piece of paper Oh Joseph happy igniting with his beard on Joseph happy acknowledging where the presence drives on but there's some places where God is taking you you don't have to shine thank you for your patience what I find is that Joseph shaves in order that he will not be culturally dissonant culturally insensitive because it was not sinful then you need to find a way to accommodate the difference the Apostle Paul said I am become all things to all men that I'm not there all means save super the barbarians I became as a barbarian that I might gain the barbarians he was culturally sensitive some time to charge is biblically savvy but not culturally sensitive for you to be able to manage the moment there's a level of preparation that goes beyond the obvious and so he goes and he appears before pharaoh and pharaoh recounts the dream and Joseph begins to interpret Pharaoh's dream notice Joseph does not say you know man man I've been having a hard time man man they sold me into slavery man man my own brothers did it to me there are my half-brothers I messed up and told my half brothers my whole dream man you never tell you how brothers your whole dream he listened attentively to Pharaoh's dream when God puts you in the moment you're not there to receive first you're not there to get first come on here you're not there as a consumer you're there as a producer did you hear what I say real well never comes from consuming they come from producing that God is gonna give you a moment to produce that thing that he's placed on you that you do uniquely that nobody else can do that proclivity did that aptitude that genius that he put in you many of us shout about the fact that Joseph is the dreamer but ladies and gentlemen Joseph's dreams did not come to pass because of his ability to dream Joseph's dream came to pass because of his ability to interpret the dream of another man don't you ever forget your dream will never come true until you learn how to interpret somebody else's dream your purpose and your plan will never happen until you begin to interpret the dream of another man when I say interpret I mean facilitate when I say interpret I mean implement when I say interpret I mean give yourself to it you gotta give your gift to make it somebody else's dream come the path you can't wait and sing your best song when you get your CD Projekt you gotta sing your best song it's somebody else's cry you gotta do your best region why are you an associate manager not just when you become the pastor the Bible said our man's gift make it room for him not a man's talent not a man skill a man's gift well what is the deference brother blew our gap there's not a girl till you get until you give away your preacher until you give away your singing but you give away your administrative ability okay you can but why I'll shrink no room is gonna be made for you and it did say a man give me his room did they say a man sales make run before they pay you to do what you're gonna do it for free y'all don't want to talk to my head I said before they pay you to do it you gonna do it for free you gonna do it for free ah you gonna do it you would do it because you love God you don't do it because you called an anointed you do it they call you cannot do it you gonna do it because it's like 5 shut up in your mouth and when God sees you do it for free he'll touch the man to pay you a shot I want you musician to John a church I want you to join a church and stop having gigs I want you to join the church I want you to get saved I want you to get an accountability big you're not a pastor [Music] because the Baba that sound man kids make room for him is that a man gap huh yeah management of the moment it was a moment it was a moment ha how about 4/5 finished if you'll allow me yeah I'm about 80% their minds so tired and so not because of his dreams but because of his ability to look into the heart of another man and see the yearnings of his heart and to realize that even though he's a heathen God is dealing with him one of the reasons why you can't move forward because you don't believe God deals with the unsaved you think that if a person doesn't speak with other tongues he or she is less than you I read in the book of John chapter 1 that Jesus is the true light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world light in Scripture represents revelation every human being receive a measure of revelation from God and if that's not good enough James 1:17 said every good gift and every perfect gift is from above that comes down from the father of life because every human being was created in the image and after the likeness of God he fell from the image but he retained a measure of the lightness and so the residue of the hand of God it's on every human being and when you begin to respect God's likeness wherever its found whether it's found among the Hindu whether it's found among the atheists or the agnostic when you learn to respect the line is of God gotta give you discernment to see the depth out their heart and to interpret their dream and when you interpret their trip they want to know who is your God when you interpret their dream it opens up their spirits to say I wanna know more about your God what is Joseph interprets the dream over he the king by the anointing listen to this he interprets the King's dream by the prophetic anointing that rest upon him is a prophetic thing but then after he interprets the dream he gives an interpretation of the interpretation happy tells him they're gonna be seven years of plenty and seven years of famine he gives him now not the prophecy but the word of wisdom that goes along with the prophecy the prophecy is famine is going to follow prosperity but here's the word of wisdom prepare in the years of prosperity for the years of famine say God wants to raise you up in this moment that he's giving you where you not only walk in the spontaneous of the gift of prophecy but you also walk in the systematic of the word of wisdom I need to have you understand that your brothers my dear sisters that the major miracles in the scripture all the miracles of supplies and the miracles of supply come by way all the word of wisdom what is wisdom in the Greek in the Greek it is Sophia that's good but in the Hebrew this is what I want it is hokhmah means skill God will give you strategy strategy for federal strategy for City Hall strategy for the school board strategy for the PTA strategy your neighborhood God anointed Joseph now not only to interpret the dream but to interpret the interpretation that he gave him a prophecy and then he gave him a word of wisdom they're not the same thing you've been in 1st Corinthians chapter 12 in verse 8 the Bible say for the one is given that a spirit the word of wisdom to another the word of knowledge are the same spirit to another discerning of spirits all nine prophecy is one word as one one the fundamental difference are differences is that prophecy is sure prey is gone non-negotiable it is unconditional why the wisdom is conditional upon your implementation if it's a prophecy and that's all it is then it's either coming to pass or you are false prophet but if it's a word of wisdom there's a contingency if you do what I say come on if your name happens to be naman if you go dip seven times in joy huh you become cleaner yep six time you're still a leper don't meeting large allied it means that the word of wisdom and you did not obey the word you see the difference don't you joseph gives them gives Pharaoh a word of wisdom but notice this when Joseph interprets Pharaoh's dream Pharaoh's dream being interpreted and implemented causes Joseph's dream to begin to come to pass why are you giving yourself with somebody else's dream now your dream come on here now not your dream he wrote his own Job Description I didn't know he said let's find a man that's got wisdom and discretion and let that man be set over the whole land of you he didn't know he was setting his own job description you don't want to help build the head of the house you don't want to help build the ministry you don't realize you next excuse me I'm sorry I'm sorry okay all right so so so so Joseph this so Joseph did so I'm cutting through this Joseph did so ladies and gentlemen and and and the interpretation of Pharaoh's dream got Joseph in a position of tremendous influence tremendous influence but let me show you something Joseph now if the word that he's given Pharaoh is true has a seven-year moment to prove whether or not what he said is really of God whether he's really the administrator that he's been set up to be here seven years a seven-year moment because when it really shows that Joseph is a man of God it's not doing these years of plenty it's when the famine hits how is what you gave us going to help us survive what's coming it's what you gave us is what you gave us going to make a secure and so ladies and gentlemen from the time that Joseph got into the position of Prime Minister his mom began to count down oh my god he can't afford to miss God now he can't afford to miss prayer meeting now because in a little while everybody's gonna be looking at him everybody's gonna be staring at him this his moment is his moment is this moment to prove that his God speaks the in from the beginning it's his moment to prove that I've got the answer for the nation I've got the answer for the city I've got the answer for the state I've got the answer and I did brothers and not just sisters when the famine hit it became fully revealed that Joseph had ha-ah the word of the Lord and here's what happened because Joseph had managed his moment well the Joseph Mahmud evolved huh and no longer was it a Joseph moment it became a Joseph movement thank you sir huh yeah I knew I want to be now huh see if you manage your moment right you all just have temporary success you all just how temporary influenza but God intends for your moment J Baba into a move shake somebody's hand is it that's why I can't play huh in this season huh because the moment God has given me is destined to evolve into a moon if you handle it right if you're having it right this thing that God is doing in your life huh it's gonna shift from a moment to a movement have you ever seen Volken ministry huh sleep right they had a meteoric rise sir but being after I - you don't know whatever happened - huh let's even if they crash and burn huh they call they did not know how to manage alone huh ladies and gentlemen when you learn how to manage a movement a moment huh then you realize that this is not about me it's not because I'm so cute it's not because I'm so handsome huh it's not because I'm so talented huh but there's something that God wants to accomplish using me as an instrument can the church say yeah the Joseph's moment mushroomed into the jaws of movement what do you mean brother blue you see what jaws are did not fully understand that he was operating under the influence of a wire that was older than he because of Joseph comes to us huh ah in the fullness in Genesis 37 aha but if you go back in Genesis sir in the fifteenth chapter huh God's fault Abram ha ha and said hey Brahma ha you're descended huh a gorge on foreign country but 430 years Joe there was no well to see but God had Joseph it is mine so the by the time Joe the shoulder that's already a word they're setting the stage so here the work haha tell somebody before you got here there was the word hanging over your life say yeah say yeah sorry brother blue what's the difference between a Jaa's a moment and a jaw the movement the jaw the moment me that interprets Pharaoh's dream the Joe the moment huh means that he call this the land of Egypt is the path no no stay right there sir go step down well there you are thank you sir Harper ladies and gentlemen are the Joseph uh-huh movement it's when Joe them they can't defeat haha not only Egypt but all the nations of the world nations in the nation of Canaan and those ten how brothers come to eat they gotta eat bread at the berry one they had a straw I tried to destroy somebody said the jaws of movement but it doesn't stop there Joseph had to deal with the bitterness huh that was in his heart he was crying huh I mean as a human being he realized they were under his dog and he had to make the quality decision huh not to destroy Pamela when he could when God heals your broken heart huh that's a part of the movement aha what is bigger than that because one of the half-brothers is named Judah say yeah one of the one that tried to kill him his name Judah you know that it before does a time Joseph said go get my father come down to Egypt that they came down to eat well Judah came down shooter came down then his two boys came down Sarah parish down that mean that Joe's Oh bad generation Joseph big ferris wanna stop that Joseph shifted from a moment to a movement no wonder no wonder Pharaoh put Pharaoh said let's call it self-doubt for now me two things interpreter reveal all secrets that's what's that Napoli I mean but also meet huh Savior of the world I'm here to tell you that because Joseph matters yes bombers he became a save the world and I came to preach because God is challenging us on three levels it's your moment shake them out in here and tell a pilgrim it's your mom everybody is watching this holy convocation everybody is watching this preacher because they realize that this is a moment that's unlike in the history I don't want you to be intimidated or to be worried at all with our prayers that God [Music] in the history I gotta give y'all but in the book of Acts chapter 1 the Bible said the rider huh leave Angelus the physician named Lou he's a Greek he's a professional he's highly educated he's a historian and he's already written one handle of the history of the Lord Jesus Christ up we call it the Book of Luke and he addressed the Gospel of Luke to an individual all right category some say one some say the other named Theophilus and the word Theophilus a mean lover of God in the second book loop haha he's at the former Swedish shop have I made Oh be awfully sure of all that Jesus began won't you do and teach until the day which he was taken up after that he through the Holy Ghost I give a command I took the Apostles whom he had chosen I don't know also he showed himself alive by many infallible proofs being seen of them forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God can't you say yeah he said everything that Jesus did from the manger to the resurrection house was a beginning Wow if everything that Jesus did from the beginning after his resurrection huh was a beginning he began to do huh he began to do about the beginning huh what's left huh he said that's what I'm gonna write about I'm gonna write about that what he began he put in the hand of his people to finish you say yeah he put his dream in the hand of the church to finish it huh he put his burden on the shoulders of the church to finish it in the book of Ephesians chapter one at the end of the chapter some of you know the bar says this and this we have given him a name that is above every name ha ha ha cossetti setting aha in the heavenly places far above all principality and my tongue and dominion of power and put all things under his feet and have given here maja to be the head over all things to the church which is his body this is what I've been getting to ha which it the fullness of here with feel at all it all the work for NASA in the Greek is prayer Omaha aroma me completion huh or in other words this one looks at Jesus what the finished up but you are excuse me Jesus what the completion are the beginning but you are the completion shed another way they begin but the head but it's finished with the party everything that Jesus started huh I want you to finish it huh John 14 attract very very hot I say unto you he that believeth on me the works that I do shall he do also and greater works indeed go ye therefore and teach all nations mark 16:15 go into all the world preach the gospel to every creature act 1 in math and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem and in Judea and Samaria to the uttermost parts yeah [Music] Wow everyone standing by somebody open your mouth would you feel anything happening in your belly I feel the Holy Ghost now somebody put your hand on your belly and say I'm anointed to finish it I'm anointed I'm honored to finish it I'm annoyed that I'm anointed to finish it's a three-fold challenge it's a three-fold challenge mandala back I mark our show tonight it's a three-fold challenge first Archbishop on behalf of the whole body we as the body pilgrim must understand this unprecedented moment that we have and we must walk in wisdom to manage this moment a moment unprecedented a moment largely unscripted and therefore you have to trust God for the map you're gonna have to trust God for the next level of revelation to manage this moment I'm not speaking to him singularly I'm speaking to him as representative of this body that pilgrim must manage this moment this is not the time to break rank this is not the time for I'm just annoyed as he is there's not time for I've been preaching longer than he's been preaching your mismanaging the moment but if we will be careful to manage and skilful to manage this moment what begins in this moment will shift the trajectory of this entire movement or you hear what I'm saying and out of this house I don't mean building now but out of this house will go forth a sound that will impact the nations in fresh ways the voice of apostle brown archbishop Brown has already gone out but that voice becomes a platform if you manage the moment wisely it becomes a platform so that the psalm is sound that comes out of this house the prophetic utterance that comes out of this house will resound further than the patriarch was able to personally reach because has always been the will of God that the father's ceiling is the son's floor [Music] [Music] David told his son Solomon God has not permitted me to build the temple that's gonna come in your moment well let me tell you what I've done I've stockpiled gold silver precious stones and I've got relationships you can leverage anytime and also the Holy Ghost has given me the blueprint for the temple so when you get ready to build you don't have to start from scratch you take what the Holy Ghost gave me and build it to the glory of God so a shot top is sought on I'm at the hole the groundwork has already been a year oh yeah the 21st century is an unprecedented era the challenges we face are unprecedented challenges before the application of the principle will be unprecedented application but the principles already in the blueprints Solomon succeeded as long as he managed the moment the way his father is tripped he already fell when he mismanaged pilgrim let us manage this moment let me tell you what God told Moses he said he said Moses asked to see his face say you can't see my face cuz that show me your glory so you can't see my face and live here's what I'm gonna do there's a place by me you should stand up on a rock I'm gonna cause all my goodness to pass by you he said I'm gonna put you in the cleft of the rock and then I'm gonna cover you with my apostle prophet evangelist past a teacher I'm gonna cover you with my archbishop Roy Brown he said and then I'm going to pass by he said and then I'm going to take away my hand and you'll see my glory from behind his hand has been taken away it's time for you to see the glory now his hand has been - you were hidden you were secured [Music] and when the hand is moved now Moses sees the glory such a glory that when you come down from the mountain he's still shining the second component much more breathe is that not only his pilgrim been challenged but the entire body of Christ you and I have been challenged to manage this moment I promise you the world is looking to us for answers did you did you hear what I said every one of you in your profession please understand that we need for you to be just as an orator Monday as you are on Sunday we've got the man at this moment we can't be freaky and faithful we got to manage them [Music] and now we're getting ready to pray here's the third one you as an individual must manage your personal moment you can tell God is doing something new you can tell God is doing something fresh who am I talking to you can tell that God is calling you to a higher place the things that have been spoken over your life you can tell that you walk again the season of fulfillment I didn't finish Ecclesiastes but this is it this is my final statement this my final state he's going to win the final final right here Ecclesiastes 3:1 says to everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven as I started that Hebrew for the word season the word time I discovered that the word we interpret or that translate we translate season it's really more like our word time and the word that we translate time is really more like our word season so in other words if we were reading straight from English it would read something like to everything there is a time and a season to everything under heaven brother bill what difference does that make maybe not a whole lot but let me give you an application a time is going to be specific if you told me to be at your office at 9:00 I'm gonna sign a contract and I show up at 9:15 I might miss my chance to get that contract signed because I miss my time but if you told me to come in the season somewhere in the summer are you hit before the fall hits you understand what I'm saying but I might get there in August you had a time in mind but you gave me grace because you gave me a season there's somebody in here as an individual who will testify that I know I missed some times but I'm still in my seat is there anybody in here who knows that's a pain God told you to do huh and you behind some pain God told you to do you have not finished them yet but is still y'all see some huh is there anybody who just prayed for Molitor lets you miss your time but you still need your Caesar [Music] I want to pray for whoever wants prayer right here this is it same thing Archbishop you may not know anything about this kind of scenario but I was talking to the Lord a few years ago down and I told the Lord Lord I know I'm behind I know that the mandate for my life I should have been further along than I am now I know I'm carrying something inside me that should have already been pushed out to birth and the Lord answered me bring that down just a hair up here just a hair keep it going it's beautiful but I want everybody to hear this the Lord answered me he said yes you have missed some opportunities he said yes you have missed some opportunities but then he said this but the best part of what I gave you is still in you he said the best of what I gave him is still in you he said now rise up and don't miss any more moments if there's anybody under the sound of my voice who knows you've missed some opportunities but you can still sense that the best of what he gave you is still in you I want you to meet me at the altar because we're gonna rise up and not miss any more moments if it's not you please stay in your place but if it's you I want you to come with your hands up and your mouth open telling God I'm gonna manage this moment it called shot time time I know so Takashi Tama I'm gonna stop making careless mistakes I'm gonna
