Blood Sweat And Tears | John Gray

[Applause] the last two weeks we have I've had the opportunity to have conversations around what's happening in our nation and its impact not only here but around the world and the spiritual implications of what's happening two weeks ago I had the honor to spend time and have a conversation with Pastor Steven Furtick and that conversation has since gone around the world and it is I believe being used by God to inform people of things that they did not or had not considered in this discourse in the moment that we're in I physically felt like I had been in a fight when we finished that conversation the next day I woke up everything on me was sore because the reality is you're not fighting against policy you're fighting against principalities and I want us to get this in your spirit that what you see is the expression of pain and anger that looks like activism and it is activism but you're also agitating spirits there's a difference between activism and agitation and when you uh none unseat a demon it doesn't go without a fight it's real quiet in this place but I need you to hear me that you're not fighting against flesh and blood okay you're dealing with spirits when you deal with spirits you better have some spiritual weapons you better have some expertise in spiritual warfare you better have some soldiers who know what to do and when to do it and you also they're going to need to to have a level of spiritual maturity and discipline that you haven't had before because these are not regular demons this is not I got a cold let's cast it out I got a headache let's cast it out no this is systemic demonic oppression of people's and God is moving them out of the way there's a shift in the atmosphere it's a tectonic plate level shift and when there's tectonic plates that fight against one another there's an earthquake and if it happens underwater then a tsunami happens and what you're seeing is a tsunami a a groundswell of not any more devil you can't have this territory you can't have this people you can't have my peace you can't have this nation and so my prayer is that you hear me from that perspective and then last week I had a chance to sit down with my pastor Pastor Joel Osteen of Lakewood Church and we had another conversation and God is continuing the dialogue the Bible says come let us reason together let's talk about this thing let's let's let's have some dialogue around what's happening let's not be all emotion and no cerebral postulating I need you to begin to think critically about where you are in your life because here's the truth you and I we know how to shout we know how to sing we know how to dance and that got us where exactly we're still here after all the shouting after all the years go by szyskii after all of it the doors were still closed the streets are still on fire in Atlanta they burned Wendy's down where a young man was killed by police officers and there is unrest and I've been saying it for a while that we are on the edge and if the Holy Ghost doesn't cause leaders to step up right now and stand in the gap we are on the precipice of something we have not seen since the 1860s not the 1960s I'm not talking about civil unrest I'm talking about civil war where people are literally taking matters into their own hands and attacking people based on ideology and that cannot be what happens in this moment we cannot devolve into energy and utter chaos we need the leaders and the people of God and that's why I said what is happening right now cannot be measured out by government officials alone we need people who have a moral compass that points true north that says we need God on the scene we need prayer warriors I wish my grandmother was still alive I wish we had some of the old church mothers that would know how to pray they don't need a platform they don't need a microphone but they know how to pray in the house they know how to put a pillow on the ground and get on knees with their elbows in the pillow cushions and say God we need your help my seat Jesus we need some prayer warriors activism is great but if you don't have any Holy Ghost nothing's going to change I need a praise break in this place my spirit is stirred up because we're in a moment that requires spiritual leadership not political management because what we're dealing with is spiritual in nature Genesis chapter 4 starting at the first verse reading from the New King James Version now Adam knew Eve his wife and she conceived and bore Cain and said I have acquired a man from the Lord then she bore again this time his brother Abel now Abel was a keeper of the sheep but Cain was a tiller of the ground so you got a shepherd you got a farmer you got a shepherd you got a farmer one works the ground and the other leads sheep to eat what's on the ground to perpetuate an ecosystem they need one another somehow something happened in the relationship where one of them didn't like the fact that their need and what they were producing caused God to give them favor they both needed one another they were interconnected they were brothers but they did not see eye-to-eye and in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the Lord Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat the Lord respected Abel and his offering but he did not respect Cain and his offering and Cain was very angry and his countenance fell so the Lord said to Cain why are you angry I just need you to ask I need to ask this question to everybody why are you angry because three weeks ago you weren't this angry why are you angry why are you angry why is your countenance fallen it's okay to be angry but be careful because this next verse helps you to understand that if you don't check your anger it will check you I feel the Holy Ghost he said if you do well will you not be accepted and if you do not do well sin lies at the door and its desire is for you but you should rule over it next verse God talked to Cain next verse now Cain talked with Abel his brother and it came to pass when they were in the field that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him then the Lord said to Cain where is Abel your brother where is your brother no I'm not asking what guy I'm asking you where is your brother cuz you think everybody that has the same color as you as your brother you think that because y'all grew up together they're proud and happy for you in it crazy that some of the people closest to you can't stand to see you happy winning thriving they secretly despise the fact that somehow God has just put favor on your life and they can't seem to get over it and since they can't get over it they just want to take you out Kane said I don't know am I my brother's keeper and is this not the moment we are in as a nation Where's George Floyd a criminal to you or a human being to you it's real quiet on the internet was Brianna Taylor a suspect or an essential worker am I my brother's keeper and God said what have you done the voice of your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground I'm preaching the subject blood sweat and tears blood sweat and tears you guys can be seated while you're sitting down I'm gonna read this next scripture but I want you to remain seated Luke 20 to 39 through 46 this is Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane coming out he went to the Mount of Olives as he was a custom and his disciples also followed him when he came to the place that has gifts M&E he said to them pray that you may not enter into temptation there's a lot of temptation right now for you to to remain in your flesh in a season where spiritual discernment is required your flesh will not serve you in this season that's why God is pushing you into a place of maturity he's pushing you into places of Solitude solemnity that you would never have had all of your creature comforts are gone your favorite teams are not playing your favorite shows are on hiatus you can't go to the movies they just opened up restaurants and why in the world would you sit up in there when we still don't know how this thing called Cove it is moving it's asymptomatic now I find out that it's mutating which means the moment you find a vaccine for one part of it it's just gonna change again and here's why and I know this is gonna sound crazy but I believe that God is allowing this moment to happen because we have not yet learned the lesson of the season which is I will not allow you to go back to normal because the earth has shifted forever and we are rapidly approaching the moment where my son comes back into the earth and the church cannot be lazy the church cannot be silent the church cannot be sitting still the church needs to be active and moving and discerning and filled with power and mature and you need to grow up and you need to stop sitting down and playing games and waiting for somebody else to lead it's your turn to lead it's your time to move it's your time to be who God created you to be [Music] pray that you don't enter into temptation and he was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw and he knelt down and prayed saying father if it is your will take this cup away from me everybody wants this moment to go away everybody want scovia to be over everybody wants to unrest to be over everybody I just want peace I want to go back to normal first of all even what you thought was normal there was no peace because you can't have peace without truth we haven't been true about anything we've been just layering more life over the lies that have been told we've never been at peace a country trillions of dollars in debt but somehow we found trillions of dollars to stimulate the economy a month and a half ago which means you have the ability to change it in a moment if you want to you could eliminate student debt if you wanted to you could give credit amnesty and give everybody 850 credit to start over if you wanted to don't tell me you don't have the money because in 2008 you found it for the banks you found it for GM you found it for the car manufacturers but can you find it for the people who have broken their backs to build this country the working men and women whose pensions are gone because of greed and mismanagement and for people who lost loved ones because of hatred and anger and vitriol where are you now [Applause] everybody wants to come to go away but you're gonna drink this put that in the comment section drink this it doesn't taste good isolation doesn't taste good uncertainty doesn't taste good but God is saying drink the cup it's come to your generation well help me Holy Ghost watch this take this cup nevertheless not my will but yours be done then an angel appeared to him from heaven strengthening him I just need to get this in your spirit God's getting ready to send heavenly visitation to you and your house does anybody believe it in here I just need my elders to believe in it I need the people of God to believe it that you you're at the edge of your rope you feel like you're literally losing your mind you feel like you you don't know which way is up you you can't sleep you got pain in your stomach and in your back and your heart is beating crazy and your medicine is not helping and your spouse is not helping and your children been in the house for three months and it's getting on your nerves you can't go anywhere and it wasn't all good before this happened and now you can't even use your normal escape hatches an angel is getting ready to stop by your house oh I wish I had help all over the world he's going to stop by your house and strengthen you what's deep is that the angels not coming to take the issue the angel was sent to give Jesus strength to finish what was the assignment on his life he's not taking you out of it he's gonna give you the strength to walk through it [Applause] [Music] watch this and being in agony Jesus prayed more earnestly then his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground blood sweat and tears we're killing each other but the truth is we've been killing each other this is not new this pain is cyclical just like sin is cyclical because until you deal with it at its root it's always going to produce fruit you can't stab a leaf and think you killed a tree racism that's a leaf prejudice that's a leaf all of these things that we see are leaves well what's the root sin nobody wants to talk about it but I'm gonna say it again you heard what I said I said it's sin sin the iniquity that thing that was inherent in our flesh when God took the dust of the ground and breathed into Adams nostrils the breath of life he gave him the breath of eternity but the opportunity of choice I I can choose to submit to God or I can do what I want and both of them have consequences Cain his name means possession Cayenne possession she said I've acquired a man from the Lord I got I got me something I have something that's what he said I got me something that's pretty deep because the Bible says to Adam that she's gonna want to rule over you her her desire shall be for you she'll want to usurp your authority but you shall have rule over there will always be tension she'll always want to be in charge you'll always want to possess something and then the Bible shows here that after the fall since since she couldn't possess Adam she said well I got me when I could possess him I can I can make him what I want I'm going somewhere but then something happened in the relationship she got pregnant again and this time she didn't name him an iteration of possession she said Abel you know what the name Abel means it means breath I'm going somewhere so we got possession over here we got breath over here over there one was a shepherd the other was a farmer one tilled the ground the other fed the sheep and then it came time for the reckoning you both have jobs to do you're interconnected the field produces the then they they release the waste but the waste is used to to fertilize the ground y'all need each other even your mess can produce something if you let it I'm trying elder he shouted through his mask that is so funny but at some point it was offering time and the Bible says came brought some wilted vegetables some Oh some stuff that was from the ground he's here you go guy was a for real you gonna bring me that Abel brought the very best of what he had and their fat which means not only am I going to give you the first fruits I'm gonna give you the best fruits and the Bible says God accepted his offering and then Cain was rejected and and here's what's really profound to me cuz everybody's got the wrong idea about God like he's so angry he doesn't speak to people he doesn't agree with Cain didn't bring the right offering and God the Bible doesn't even record God speaking to Abel at all the only one God spoke to was Cain because a loving father will give you an opportunity to correct your behavior by teaching you the right way so this is not the time for the church to judge people because they don't see everything the right way stop looking down at people because of where they are don't look down at people that stop speak who are you you were a mess - you failed - you've lied - you stole - you've been nasty - to - to God actually took time and said Cain why are you mad why are you sorry why you why you why are you hating on your brother why's your face like that why are you looking at your brother like you want to take him out how is it that y'all came from the same womb but you don't see the same thing how is it that y'all grew up in the same house but y'all don't have the same spirit how is it that you grew up in the same country in the same streets a few miles away but y'all don't speak to one another the million dollar mile versus the southside of Chicago Beverly Hills versus Crenshaw and Slauson south-central same city different realities human beings different opportunities one country many different versions of the American dream or nightmare depending on your reality he said why why are you why are you acting like that if if you do well won't you be accepted if not you'll be rejected so be careful Cain because sin lies at the door and its desire is for you I need to give you some principles because everything that we're dealing with right now is sin related I know you don't want to hear that but just to church and it's time for the church to stop messing around and tell these people the truth that sin will get you cut off sin will have you doing all kinds of crazy things the first thing that Jesus that God said is Cinna lies at the door you need to write this down sin lies they missed it sin lies it lies to you and it's lying in wait for you sin will never tell you the truth of what it is that happens once you engage it it just lets you see the glimpse of the pleasure or the release in the moment but it never shows you the aftermath sin lies sin will always lie to you but it's also lying in wait for you which means sin is a living thing it needs something to feed on to stay alive that's why you gotta guard your mind in this season so you gotta guard your heart in this season you have to guard your motive in this season because there are people who will attempt to monetize pain in this season and the devil is a lie there are people that are looking for an opportunity because everybody's nervous so they're looking for people and because it's in the nature of people to worship things that's why you have American that's why we idolize our favorite people our artists and people when when Michael Jackson used to have concerts people would faint and scream and fall out because there was something about when he did the thing with his hands boom we make idols of people because there's something in us that likes to worship things but God has been tearing down all of our idols and everything you believed in and everything you held dear he's torn it straight down to the ground and he's exposing all of the things that we thought were were untouchable and God by his power has made it clear that he is not letting the idols to be resurrected he's pulling down the masks he's taking them off he's pulling the curtain ripping it from top to bottom and he's saying the only one that is able to do what you need is me and I'm gonna force you to take a look now whether or not you come to me is on you but I'm giving you the opportunity to get to me and whoever I'm talking to stop taking the easy way out and go ahead and get to God because he is the safest way out but there's nothing easy about a relationship with God it's gonna cost you your best it's gonna cost you your fat it'll cost you your first fruit not some raggedy vegetables that you found on the ground that you thought would be acceptable to God this is not the season of half behind in it this is the season of giving God everything you've got and if I'm talking to anybody I need everybody in here to take a few minutes in a few seconds and give God a praise if you know that he's saying this is the moment that I want you to give me everything I want your attention I want your allegiance I want your affection sin is waiting it's alive it never tells the truth and it wants to consume you God spoke to Cain Cain was in his flesh he never spoke to Abel well how come he didn't speak to Abel how come it is good job Abel well it was clear about what Abel gave that he had a healthy relationship with God he didn't have to parade it it's not disgust in scripture it's implied and clearly evident by the offering he gave in this season if you got to tell me you say something's wrong pastor Robert thank you cuz I just need some help in here see if you got to tell the world you feel what the Holy Ghost something's wrong because in this season your fruit should speak for itself the problem with the church in the last season is we had y'all food with all the lights and all the cameras and all of the stuff and we knew what to say praise God hallelujah he is worthy to be praised but it wasn't real it was all it was all a dream I used to read Word Up Magazine salt and pepper and Heavy D up in the limousine hanging pictures on my wall anyway God is deconstructing the myth of Western Christianity that we got to show up in these buildings for God to show up God says I'll show up in the hood I'll show up in the projects I'll show up in the ghetto I'll show up in the crack house I showed up with the prostitute at the Pharisees house I showed up with the woman at the well I showed up with Jesus and the lepers God says I want to get out in the streets while y'all got me confined at these little dirty buildings these buildings have never been what I was reckoning I'm trying to get to the people that's why Jesus said go ye therefore not tell them to come here when you build a big building God is saying the time for the world to know who the church is is right now and it's not by going back in the building's without understanding that the assignment was never to build buildings it was to build people write this down if it's real it'll produce fruit in this season if it's real it's going to produce fruit blood sweat and tears so the Bible says something happened and I'm going to move quickly because I need you to get this in your spirit something happened very quickly in the field after God spoke to Cain to try to correct his spirit and give him the ability to to rule the thing that was at the door of his heart he was able let me holla at you and he was in the field now he was a tiller of the ground so he got him his territory be careful because the enemy is hoping that you cross over into his territory hopes he catches you off-guard but I'm praying by the power of the Holy Spirit that she'll have discernment in this season for what is God and what is not God because every open door ain't God and it might be the small door over in the corner that doesn't look you know too great and that's the god door that's why you have to ask the Holy Ghost and my prayer is that God would cause you to walk in wisdom in this season Cain said let me talk to you and the Bible says somehow they got into it and Cain killed Abel what is Abel's me name me breath I can't breathe I can't breathe he killed him as his blood spilled onto the street in Minneapolis I'm sorry as his blood spilled in the field in Eden I'm sorry as his blood spilled cuz he was selling cigarettes in New York and they choked him and he said I can't breathe I'm sorry as her blood hit her own apartment in her house while she was sleeps she doesn't even know why she's dead she just woke up and somebody was trying to beat her door down no not warrant I'm sorry Cain killed Abel I'm sorry injustice and an Envy invaded the relationship I'm sorry because everybody was like murder is the first sin no it isn't Envy was the first sin because I can't be better than you in God's eyes I'm gonna kill you cuz I'm gonna be first I'm gonna possess this thing my name is possession I'm gonna take it if I have to I'm gonna take power I got power I'm burst I'm in charge I got a badge I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry because everybody with a badge is not evil but there are some people who have a badge who are evil they need to be rooted out so the ones that are covering our streets and doing the right thing are properly honored so they can do their job because the truth is cops want to go home to their family too and I don't care if people don't like what I'm saying but there's balance on both sides every white person is not racist every black person ain't a saint the truth is we all got stuff in there and depending on what day I catch you you might be cane or you might be able but you won't be able to cane me I need a praise break in here I need a praise break in here Cain killed Abel and his blood spilled from his body from the wound caused by his brother brother stop wounding your brother's sister stop wounding your sister and stop saying that because of the color of my skin I'm not your brother because I'm not gonna say that you're not my brother because you don't look like me that's insane race is a construct of human brokenness to create divisions amongst human beings it's a lie it's a it's a construct it's rooted in sin and and everybody wants to talk about systemic injustice and I understand it but injustice is the sin the system is the fruit the sin is the root blood sweat and tears but there is a moment when the blood speaks and God shows up and too much blood has hit the ground and God has had to reconcile oh god help me Moses I need you to go talk to Pharaoh because the cries of my people have come up before me where they've been crying for 400 years wait a minute how long have people been crying in this country 400 years well it's time for deliveries but Faro which is a spirit doesn't let go easy because the system that was created by the sin has produced so much wealth that it's more money if I keep you where you are I wish I had some help in here do you understand that's why Jesus said the love of money is the I [Music] gotta keep you down because as long as you're broken I can get rich I can feel better I'm better than you pick that cotton invent me something nurse my children it was the original sin which is to subjugate people and it's not new to this country it's been here since the beginning I want to rule over you but whether is Egypt in Exodus 12 or America in 2020 God has said deliverance is here and I'm coming to reconcile that the tears and the pain and the lie and the systems are all falling down and the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ the systems that the enemy thought he was running God is stepping in and saying I'll take it from here I wish I had some help and it is the central figure in human history that has reconciled this moment through his blood his sweat and his tears what's his name thank you Pastor aventure I'm glad somebody is hearing what I'm saying his name is Jesus we've been hearing a lot about our civil rights leaders and rightfully so we've been talking about the civil rights movement Brown versus Topeka loving which was the the Supreme Court striking down the inability of people to marry based on the color of their skin we've been talking about all of these judicial precedents we've been talking about the martyrs who died for the civil rights cause Medgar evers his anniversary was this week Martin Luther King Malcolm s were talking about all the people that have given their lives but there was one whose blood hit the ground and redeemed every style place that we as human beings could muster because don't you think that racism is the only sin jealousy is a sin envy is a sin insecurity is a sin killing your brother is a sin yes we are rightfully talking about injustice for those cops that are doing wrong things but we also need to talk about the sin of killing people who look like us and don't nobody want to talk because we don't snitch in the hood what kind of craziness are we reconciling when we're angry at that we should be equally angry at this good angle a me you ain't black enough i'ma I am a man of God I live black I can't run from this but you can't blame and talk about that without facing the things that we need to address in this community as well Oh Lord somebody like I'm calling the church I want my tithe back I love you but the truth is this is not about behavior it's about sin god I wish we would go ahead and just call it what it is Jesus didn't die for issues he died for sin Jesus was in the garden and the Bible says he was in agony why was he in agony he wasn't in agony because of what he did he was in agony because he was feeling the pain of the injustice of all the people of all the world of all times he was feeling the weight of the sin that so easily besets us he was feeling the pain and the rage of mothers who have lost their children unjustly he was he was feeling the pain and the rage of the people that have been murdered and pillaged and raped across all time across all people just because it's America now it was Egypt thousands of years ago and the children of Israel then and even later it was the Babylonian captivity and I could go on and on there was been wickedness and injustice in this earth from the beginning and it is global it is not new to this country it is not germane or native to this country it was a spirit that's everywhere where people are because sin is everywhere that people are Jesus agonized from the blood of Abel that hit the ground in Genesis for Herat to the blood of Jesus that hit the ground in Matthew 26 the Bible says he sweat like great drops of blood boom he was in agony and as I close the agony produced an anointing oh I feel I feel the weight of what I'm saying hitting the atmosphere there is an agony that will produce an anointing that nothing else in your life and no other season in your life ever will it's funny because I know what it's like to ask God don't wake me up I know what it's like why am I here why am i alive why am I going through this in the last two years now it makes sense he was preparing me for war and so I had to fight differently because I needed different weapons for the season that we're in in the earth God needs some uncompromising voices that's scream repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand turn from your wicked ways change the way you do things change stop living your own life submit to God nobody wants to hear that we want to scream we shall overcome and I understand social justice the public policy but if you're not talking about sin at the root then you're missing the whole thing do you think that the people marching are the only people with a strong opinion do you know the people at home that is shaking their heads to look at them turn up their own streets that's just how they do those people aren't changing our anger is not changing anything the only thing that can change this thing for the better is the Spirit of God we need the Holy Ghost to infuse our leaders we need the Holy Ghost to stand up and there must be a marriage of the spiritual truth of who Jesus is and the principles of justice and fairness that are rooted in the Bible Jesus died so that everyone would be equal to him so don't tell me that I would have to speak about equality we were made to sit in heavenly places with Christ Jesus well looks like my time is up but there have been too many tears shed for us to go back to normal too much bloodshed for us to ignore it too much sweat equity for us to act as if this moment has not come to us for us to be the leaders that God expects Jesus blood hit the ground to redeem the earth he lived 33 sinless years agonize imagine the pressure it takes to live a life spotless so that when you die you will be accepted by God for the sins of the whole world blood sweat and tears and he did it so that we would be heirs and joint heirs brothers and sisters not the black church not the white church at the Republican Church at the Democrat church not the not the independent church none of that none of these denominations he died so that we would see each other as brother and sister so what am I to you the black guy who sweats and preaches or am I your brother who was created by the same God that you were created by do you see me as someone to fear do you see me as someone that will fight for your life before biown what are you what am i we are family we have God's DNA we've both labored to get to this moment we've shed tears and it is Jesus who reconciles it all in this moment Cain killed because of sin and we're still killing because of sin and it is sin that is at the root of what's going on in this nation right now if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face then will I hear from heaven forgive their sin and then I'm going to heal their land if you're watching and if you're here it's because God expects you to take up the mantle of leadership and be one who builds bridges you got people that drove from Rochester New York to be amongst of 35 people in a room that seats 3,500 you don't drive from Rochester to play games with your calling if you're watching it's because God has his hand on your life too much blood has been shed too many tears have been shed too much sweat has dropped to the ground and it is time for us to reconcile that all of the issues that are plaguing our nation are rooted in the sin nature of human beings one wants to rule over the other but it cannot be so in this next season God is repaying those who have been unjustly oppressed freedom is coming and I believe deliverance is coming to this nation when Jesus died he broke the power of hell and he's got the keys to death hell in the grave so if you've been crying I prophetically declare that God is about to wipe the tears from your eyes if you've lost a loved one to injustice in any form I'm praying that the god of justice will rush to meet you in your home right now for those who have labored and not been given proper credit may the Lord breathe on your finances may he breathe on everything you touch that this next season of your life is the most supernatural and miraculous time of harvest because your heart is faithful and may the Lord allow the blood of those who came before you to cry out on your behalf and maybe accumulated interest of those who came before you be credited to your account may your whole family line be blessed because you've given your life to Jesus and your ideas to Jesus leaders would you stand god I pray [Music] that you would do great and mighty things and that the blood sweat and tears will give way to power deliverance and healing and that we will address the root of the issues that are plaguing our nation and they are not political they are spiritual and I will not move from that platform does that discount the need for godly and honorable and morally upright political leaders judges and those in the executive and legislative branches of course not we need them all but we need your spirit first this is my prayer in Jesus name Jesus died so that you and I would be equal in the eyes of God the righteousness of Jesus given to us as a garment our sins covered a fresh start and God knows this nation needs a fresh start faster I have if you'll join me here we need a fresh start and if you need the blood of Jesus to heal the wounds that nobody else could heal that the liquor can't heal that the multiple romantic interactions couldn't heal but the drugs couldn't heal I offer you the blood of Jesus for the sins of our nation the things that have not been reconciled I'm also praying that the Heart of Jesus will begin to beat in our leaders but if you need the Lord Jesus this is that moment so if you are giving your life to Jesus I want you to pray this prayer with me and say these words Lord Jesus it's me I confess with my mouth and believe in my heart that Jesus is Lord thank you for the blood that was shed for me I receive the free gift of salvation not through my works but the finished work of the cross your blood is enough to change history so Jesus changed me Holy Spirit come live inside and teach me the ways of Jesus so that I can be more like him each and every day this is my prayer in Jesus name Amen we believe if you prayed that simple prayer you just got saved and we
