[Music] what you see [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] I had this picture during worship when God came to Solomon in a dream and asked him what he wanted he would grant him his request selma had an interesting answer he said i'm like a little child i don't know how to lead these people and you see throughout the scriptures as spiritual truth it can't be hunted down with our intellect it actually has to be revealed by the Holy Spirit it's called the spirit of Revelation so the pictures like have occurred and covering something and a spirit of Revelation reveals it and the Bible talks about becoming like little children so I feel like Bobby is gonna be speaking some things that are just gonna be setting some things right in our heart some of those questions going to exclamation points and just setting something but I feel like we need to just prepare a horse to be childlike to just recognize God we can't figure this stuff out we are dependent upon your Holy Spirit and so America we just sing that one part where it says when you whisper in my ear like the garden but just make that just a song that surrender and just just total dependence on an iceberg we need you to reveal these true as we we're asking you to do that what you muster in my I began to see that again well us belong but you were in mind [Music] to [Music] there [Music] you what you guys what you [Applause] [Music] towards me into [Music] you [Music] me reminds me remind me of your realize [Music] my my my my [Music] [Music] if you're comfortable this if you can just put your hand on his shoulder somebody next to you you see throughout scripture that the laying on of hands was a weight or at least spiritual things and so on lots of different kinds of things but just pray for the person next to you holy secured open up their eyes given that spirit of wisdom and revelation that goes beyond just human words and great word picture as Holy Spirit we want you to do something what I pray that each person in here would have an encounter some people are uncomfortable with the idea of having a subjective experience but that's exactly what God wants you to have we want you to have a personal relationship and encounter with him not just a nogales see far far away so I'm always screwed we pray for a spirit of wisdom boy sir we need you to come and do something tonight for something good to happen so we just position our hearts and we just surrender I always say come Holy Spirit do your thing open up your eyes to see Jesus more clearly Elvis to see Jesus more clearly [Music] spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Jesus open up their eyes flood their hearts with light in the name of Jesus and though we just thank you for this great City of Columbus we pray for mayor Ginther that you would give him wisdom and revelation that you would surround him with wise counsel I thank you for his part for this city God to see it transformed to see it prosper to see it be a good city with peace till we bless his plans boy pray for President Trump that you would protect his life any of him any plans of the enemy to harm him that they would be foiled and while we pray you would surround him with wise counsel with godly counsel that you give him dreams during the night that would pull as hard closer to you or thank you for this great country we thank you for protecting us we love you Jesus lord I just thank you that there's not one person here by accident now Lord you who are Dain them to be here so we just submit that to you just pray one more prayer over that person next year get them good Jesus [Music] I just bless somebody and you're way back to your seat if you're able to some of you guys let's take our worship team for taking their time wasn't that awesome I think the keyboard player is extra cute but that's just me it's my wife for you new people however one time Mary said something to me from the front row and I said what's that babe and I'm somebody didn't know it was my wife and they were kind of offended so they came up to me afterwards and then once they found out my wife they're like oh that's actually endearing so what we were glad you guys are here tonight and we are honored to have Bobby Conner here how many of you have I never heard Bobby counter in person anybody all right yeah so on a fifth of the room we are glad you guys

thank God for His mercy marching ladies merciful man and he's faithful he won't leave us that word glad you're here rod and Bridget whether they're wonderful friends Lee we're in the church and the fellowship we had there in Texas and they're very precious Bridget used to cut my hair Oh Lord yeah oh man listen I've had some haircuts first time I walk ever saw me had shaved every hair off my head with a razor and I put vaseline on it so it would shine I was riding the Indian motorcycle down the snow-covered Road ugly whoop but uh my wife fell in love with me before she ever met me honest to god she used to see me in town and go home and cry to her mother about it this is the honesty country we've been married this year be 54 years and I'm telling you the absolute truth she's the best Christian I've ever met I'm seriously as I can be I've been with her all over the world I've been with her with royalty and with street addicts and she's absolutely the same it a person status does not make her one bit of difference at all she and she just she has this rule I didn't know understand I don't know she can walk up to somebody and just say oh we saw you April 7 1973 and your daughter Dianne was going to the hospital I'm thinking have ever seen these people before and she knows all about their family history it's amazing you know but she's a stickler for absolute facts you know that listen she is something else but uh I used to get back with a lot till the grandkids children how to do that live streaming and stuff and so now they get honest you see you don't have to tell those silly stories you know about me and my brother sit in the backyard shoot cigarettes out of one another's mouth with the Dorney feed rifle yeah my mother would come to the door swing the door when screaming hey you boys quit wasting them shells they cost money that's how I was raised I was raised well I told my mother once I said I don't think you took will you watched over me very well listen I was around her good lord my brother was a year older than me and man'll and we had a he could whip me any time he wanted to with his fists but I shot him he'd even hit the hammer and knocked him and so he was afraid of me I stuck a hammer and my brother's head now that you know there's not very many preachers come and tell you that but we always building the porch for my mama supposed to be building the porch for my mama and I don't know I might have lift-off at him or something I pushed the wrong button and he willed me around he was left-handed so he will me around fixing to work me one with the left and I go good God I got a hammer well so I hit him in the head with a hammer and it stuck the hammer in his head look out now there's the the hammer head sticking in his head and the handle sticking out like that he fell in the floor and he's bluer than the carpet and he's laying there my mother opened the door and scream yeah Kevin I said shut up I know that but it didn't kill him the doctor even used the word you ready the doctor said it's a miracle said you hit him the only place you could have hit him and not kill him said if you hit him here to kill him if you hit him here with a killer I hit him in the sinus and that's where the hole is there's a hole there in your head and so that's from a hammer head web go figure God was even helping us in a hammer fight I really did my dad died in a mental institution before I was born it was crazy he slept around with strange women they called venereal disease that traveled up his spine got into his brain he died a lunatic in an insane asylum 37 years old over six foot six inches tall handsome fella but did you know his sin almost cost me my life here's how that happened my this is 1943 my mother's big and pregnant my dad's dying in a mental institution and the doctors consult with my mother say the baby inside your belly will be afflicted the Satan sees killing his father so my mother's desperate now she's already got my sister two years old two years older myself and my brother a year older than me and he was born crippled crumbling of the hip bones and then Here I am in her belly gonna language away like my father so my mother is desperate here's what she does she takes a coat hanger turns it in to hook up with her wood inserts a coat hanger into her body and tries to extract my life out of her body so help me God so help me God the first time I had an experience with Jesus was right then he came and put his hand like that and kept my mother from extracting my life out of her body I told Carolyn my wife about it before mother ever told me and my wife said Bobby nobody can know what happened to when it's a fetus I said me and John the bathroom stood memory ailment mommies tell me exactly Jeremiah 1 4 before I formed in the belly I knew you before you came out of mommy's tummy our dangerous think about you and since you're part to being prophet to the missions but anyway grew up rough and with we you know my mother who didn't have any money at all this is 1943 dad's dead mama's got three little kids she never remarried and she made our clothes out of feet sack and that's something the farmers back then would get their feed in a Saxon had prints and stuff on them and they would give them to my mother she'd wash them and cut them up and make her clothes didn't have shoes it's just Forge it could be but listen it doesn't matter how you start it's how you finish you understand that and gods really really good he really really is I move back and see and we didn't know anything about it my mother used to make our clothes and we'd get out on highway 31 here's my mother moon weather here's my sister Kate Frances here's my crippled brother Glenn and then here's me and my mother's out there on South Road thumbing a ride to church is that amazing some people aren't getting a Ferrari and driving Church and she'd get out on how the highway and Thelma ride the church trying to bring us up in the fear that the mission of the Lord anyway God's a good good God it'd be good and he's good to you and I love when the pastor's praying a moment ago about thankful that we're living in a free country I really miss and it's amazing I've been in places they could march in and shoot you for what we're doing right here they can put you in prison for the rest of your life for doing just exactly what we're doing here I mean in the last several months I've been there I'm telling you we have a great freedom to worship God aren't you glad we need to take advantage of it so we got some stuff to talk about I pray you'll visit the book table out there there but we've dropped several of the books we've got Global's all the time it's wow this thing guess what the Lord told me the other day this is profound yeah so of course anything the Lord tells is profound here's what he said to me Bobby do you know what a printed word is I said apparently not do you know what a credit word is I said apparently not here's what he told me said a printed word is a thought you can see Wow now that's Ravana when you put your when you write a book you're putting thoughts down people can see aren't you glad God gave us thoughts you can see this book tells us of God's thoughts toward us Psalm 139 verse 16 17 says he stops toward your weight in precious Wow so it's pretty amazing here's what we've got to understand about the simplest the simplest thing about God is so profound we can't understand it naturally I don't care how brilliant you are you can't comprehend the slightest and simplest thing about God you have to discern that by the spirit you understand that I don't care how smart you are you can't get it with your human intellect there's a guy in the Bible named Nicodemus John chapter 3 says he was a ruler of the Jews what the heck does that mean the same came to Jesus find a ruler of the Jews was it mean get me gold he kept 480 Levitical laws a day and he could quote the first five books of the Bible that dude was Wow I'm telling you that's amazing kept 480 Levitical laws a ruler of the Jews that's what that means and it meant something so he came to Jesus by night he said rabbi we know you're a teacher stuff of God nobody can pull this off unless God's with you and what does Jesus say to it now you can already see something strange here there's Nicodemus speaking into fur all we know but God will never let you hide in the crowd God said to Nicodemus you must be born again and Nicodemus said wow you mean I wasn't receptive tell me to Romney's tell me to be born again and he said Marvel not that I said me and Marvel not means quit attempting to use a human intellect reality to figure out the spiritual principle see a lot of people are going to go to halo because they think you got to figure out salvation nowhere in the bible does it say figure it out right here it says quit trying to and just experience it and I promise you it is sentient here's what the Bible said verse the Old Testament said the way of salvation is so simple better wayfaring fool need not fear there in that's King James so I said God give me that in Texican he said you tell the people if they got enough sense to get back to the house they got enough sense to get saved that's what that verse means clam salvation so simple that way very clearly not here they're in and you need to quit trying to figure it out in the head and experience it in the heart open your heart to Christ if you'll confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus believe in your heart that God raised you with it you'll get saved he won't turn you away he'll come into your heart save you write your name in the Lamb's Book of Life and you become a whole new creation second Corinthians 5:17 since therefore if any man be in Christ he is a new creation old things are passed away behold all things go bright and brand new aren't you thankful aren't you glad you don't get saved when I'm back to the whole life no you don't be it's a to go back to the old way of living remember blind Bartimaeus I love that dude flattened our tomatoes black bartemaeus up to the highway side begging I don't like that part about it and he said he heard that it was Jesus coming back men's bodies he convenience and he hears a mob coming and he hears a hiss Jesus and he starts crying out Jessa Jessa and guess what the disciples of Jesus Christ said into black market shut up this is not for you that's what they said but it says barb picked up the volume and B didn't scream more J's up and it says Jesus stopped and stood still and turned to those cold callous disciples and said go tell him to come and it says now listen do you see how dance you and I can be we get so steps that are going to get close to Jesus we forget about those who came to that far go giddy so they go over there and there's a little part and they go come on man get up he's calling for you and it says he cast away his blind man's garment that was his identity to ends that handout and social help so he cast it away and he comes to Jesus Jesus the Son of God it comes blind Bart and he's standing in front of Jesus the Son of God and lo and behold Jesus says what is it you won't and jesus lost the word of knowledge I mean here's this guy mucus running down his eyes Jesus and Jesus says what is it you want Wow see we have not because we ask not you've got to ask Jesus into your heart you got a in you got a yeah invite him in and I love what blind Bart said he didn't say well if you hear me I may trust you he said Lord Wow see it already committed himself Lord that I might receive my son and Jesus said go thy way thy faith hath made thee hold and it says immediately his eyes were opened and he followed Jesus in the way we're telling you don't go back to the old lifestyle aren't you glad he didn't get his cane and his cup no you get saved to live saved you don't get saved to go out smoke dope sleep around you get saved to be different if you don't if you're not different you didn't get saved I've been preaching a long time 49 years I've studied the Bible quite thoroughly and I found out there's only one way for sure you can know you're born again you may say well I know I'm born again look at the gifts I've got you don't have a found Judas head he's in hell Judas had all the gifts flowing and functioning and Jesus called him a devil Wow Wow so that ain't evidence that you're saved you say well here it is as far as I can decipher the only true acid test that you're genuinely born-again is this you can't get by with habitually sinning if you can sin and God doesn't correct you you're illegitimate and have no birth papers if you be without chastisement our correction you're illegitimate the book of Hebrews says Wow if you think you can get by continually with sin and God doesn't change you and punish you and correct you something's wrong every son he receives he chases correction and discipline is the only true way you know you're genuinely born-again you don't hear that preached much do you well I'm saved I mean I'm free now you know what wouldn't creature told me he said I've got full of the Holy Spirit now it's okay I can take a drink I mean you don't get saved to get loosed the Holy Spirit doesn't set you free to live ungodly Holy Spirit saves the saves you to live a sanctified life you say wow you think it's wrong to drink mmm yeah I do I think it's wrong to drink I know it's wrong to get drunk the drunkard has his part in the lake that burns with fire now I've drank more too I could drowned everybody in this room I used to make it sell it I'm telling you now this is all true there's nothing good about alcohol it says woe unto the neighbor that puts strong drink Walter the first and puts strong drink to his neighbor's lips you'll never become an alcoholic if you don't take the first drink you say well listen I know I'd leave it alone if I was you the Bible said abstain from all appearances of even see some people think well I get free enough you know and I talk like this for you to what I get I'll get backlash there go oh that's that legalism no I think lofty is a lot better than legalism I don't want somebody to stumble over my life into hell so you might can have a glass of wine but the person at work that sees you have a glass of wine he met the first drink he might be bound and they thought well he was okay for him or her no a stain from all appearances of evil Wow it's different than we think in it don't get free enough to live loose I want you to understand that man okay I talk like I'm 70 75 years old I get to speak in the largest youth conferences in the world and I tell it as straight as I can to them they are sick and tired of sugar-coated mess they wanted it raw and real as you give it to them they're going to be willing to die for what they believe you can't get their parents to live for what they say they believe there's a coming generation of dread champions that will give their life for what they believe they'll lay it down literally lay down their life Wow isn't that cool it's worth it though it it's worth it I've been on some things I listen God God I don't know where people think that Christianity is boring I'll tell you what's more in charge good serving God is not boring uh I could tell you stores make your hair crawl around on your back just serving God Wow stories man once the Lord said I want you to go to the Philippines I just came out of the Philippines they feel some gigantic arenas with thousands of people down there Wow just a few weeks ago we's del fin Manila but anyway years ago I go to Manila had a great service in big ole arenas and then the Lord said I want you to go over there's an island and have a crusade I thought its crusade like soccer stadium it was crusade like Indiana Jones they flew me over there in a helicopter landed helicopter on a pad no bigger in this place up here helicopter leaves I'm gonna be there for ping days and 40 nights helicopters gone I looked over there and I saw something in the weeds and I walk weather to see what it is oh it's three missionaries hacked up and dismembered I look over here there's something in the bar ditch oh it's a man with his throat slit and he's rode up like a dead cow helicopters gone I'm gonna be there 14 days and 14 nights yeah I said to God you tricked me he said to me you wouldn't have come any other way he was right about that all of this is truth see I'm talking about adventure I'm telling you follow god there's adventure there's drama following God it was a wild wild time good lord I ended up in an island they were having a full-blown revolution it was a wildest thing you've ever seen it why I could tell you stories for weeks about it goodness yeah yeah verse not the the the crusade was they had a little bitty light and you put a car battery there and hook the wires up that was a lot to still light up the and the app in the middle of a jungle so the first night the Lord had just preached his simple gospel so I preached a simple gospel had my eyes closed all kind of sounds of metal and as a people a bunch of rebels came out of the jungle and to the guns down it's crazy they put me on a they got me a little motorcycles because we're going from one village to the next preaching I'm on a little bitty motorcycle like a bear on a buggy and it's blowing smoke and we'd get to heal I'd have to get off heavy push so here we go and a bamboo thing falls across a little trail were riding in and I got jumps out of the bushes with an ar-15 yeah I'm out of mispronounce it last he's got a automatic gun pointing at us talking in Filipino why I said to the interpreters interpreters about the size of my thumb little weasel looking of a guy couldn't a whip to flee that's the guy that's gonna take care of me in the middle of a yeah so I said to him what does he want he says he wants us to follow him I said we following him can't you see me here's the guy behind me with an ar-15 we shot I'm going to shove this is all true don't lie in church ask Ananias and Sapphira these people to go all God so easy to get along with no apparently lying to God can get you killed mm-hmm that's New Testament Christianity don't think about Deuteronomy and all the mother Leviticus that's New Testament Christianity in the church um husband and wife drop bed about lying about their devotion to God oh yeah that hyper grace message don't fit very well there does it I read the Bible did you it's a fearful thing to fall in the hands of the Living God I'm more afraid of God than I am the devil now I'm at least giving us the spirit of adoption we can cry die death but we better walk clean yeah listen guys you better watch out now this thing about well you know it's all covered no if we continue to sin actually receive the knowledge that sin there remaineth no more pardon for that sin but a fearful looking for fiery indignation if we just say well I know God's gonna forgive me I'll do it anyway have you ever had the Bible talked about a sin unto death apparently and a nice and them committed it they lied about their devotion failed in church Wow maybe anyway I don't know how I got off on that I was in the middle of the jungle with a gun in my back but anyway good lord we get there to a cave and we go inside a cave and it's a room about it biggest of this thing up here and there is I was stunned there was ground-to-air missiles up against the wall these kind you can shoot down planes and all kind of weapons and there was a whole ton of men sitting in there cross-legged like this and this interpreter is the guys talking to him I said what is it he wants he said he wants you to give the message inside here that you've been giving out there that causes people's face to shine like well sure I can do that so but we survived that thing okay that was something but for these people that think Christianity is boring I've got tales you can't imagine and but they're real tales in serving Jesus is stimulating it's exciting but bid Church I don't want to be a part of a dead church do you how do you keep from being a part of a dead church you stay full of the Holy Spirit you stay focused on the Holy Spirit loving him living for him allowing him to live through you it'll be exhilarating he's got big big plans for you it is wild I tell you good I'm stunned continually stunned don't have God will open doors if you'll just step in let me take a young story yes I was down there in LA preaching and they put me in the hotel where they put their having extreme Olympics that's him guys in Gaza at contempo they get on their motorcycles jump ups spin around and jump off the motorcycle wave only get back the extreme Olympics that's where their hotel they was put all of them in there and they I'm in there doing

the wild this is the superstars of the wild I get down there to the fountain in the lobby of that hotel and I bring my little Bible and I open the Bible and begin to preach to oh man I got hallelujahs and f-bombs at the same message it was you talk about son it was it was why we had a time but see that's the way it's supposed to be we're not supposed to just keep Christ shackled in a church we got to get out for their aunt we had a great great time I'm telling you how a bunch of them kids got saved but see it wouldn't happened if we hadn't had this encounter but we got to quit trying to be a secret disciple God has nothing to do with secret disciples you understand that we're supposed to be a city set on a hill I'm screaming a CD set on a hill that cannot be hidden we are to be salt and light here's a verse I did test it says we're supposed to be salt in line but if the salt has lost his ability to function it is good for nothing I'll never be a good-for-nothing Christian it is good for nothing but to be cast up and trodden on the feet of man that's what Jesus said if you're not functioning under your calling and you're equipping your good for nothing Wow mmm see now it's so sad a lot of people did ask you your name yeah yeah I know your no I just asked you your age what's your name how was that boat boy smelly I can imagine that well here's the sad part about it no a lot of people have fallen into this mindset that the ultimate goal of God is just to get saved and live a few years and go on the glory wait a minute there's nothing wrong with going on to glory but God has much more to you for you to do then just live a good life for a few years if the ultimate goal of God was just to get us from Earth to heaven we wouldn't need a functioning five-fold we just need two ministries evangelist and assassin did you say the power you're there but he leaves us here to function as a fifl family Dubble you say yes none of this is a message I pray your visit the book table there's books out there ones about breaking off family curses it's a legacy lineage line legacy is what you leave behind Lee and each line is who you leave behind and they're inseparable the first one I wrote the first legacy lineage line book it's sold out just like that and the Lord said I want you to rewrite it but add more to it and so in this one the Newman that's out there we added verses and scriptures and patterns and processes for you to begin to speak perennial blessings over your family how do you break off the curses but add the blessings of God and it's never too late to do that they can be married and out of the house but you still have a leadership over their life you really do and so it's very very important and I hope you'll get the legacy lineage line book there's one called empowered I wrote it out of Psalms 94 16 in verse 17 which says O Lord that the signs of your power be revealed and established out of the works of our hands yes God the works of our hands establish that wait and let your glorious Majesty be seen by our children Psalms 94 16 and 17 and it's in a book called empowered and then there's one out there called it's called up masters plan Devine designed Wow and it shows you how to find the destiny God has for you and start doing what he's called you to do what he's called you to do you'll find joy in it you'll well it won't be drudgery and Bible said that his yoke is easy and his burden slide when you find out what God has called you to do and you quit trying to do what others are doing and do what God called you to do it'll be easy it'll be cheerful and good and you'll be contented in it life is too short not to find that so you need to get master's plan to by design and then there's there's a shepherd's rod book were don't we on the day of atonement we have this encounter with Jesus and it's called about sonship this time I am Telling You I'm 1,000% sure one of the most needed messages we can have is sonship we've got a ship jump just being a servant to a son and then he'll tell us all about becoming an heir of the kingdom of God and we are joint heirs with Jesus that means we're co-owner of the universe that's what it says in the Bible yeah that's pretty good well you know I don't know you're co-owner of the universe you're a joint heir with Jesus if they're new lawyers ask a lawyer what it means to be a part of a joint heir it means that one can't have more than the other so whatever hat Christ has you have equal share Wow err we're gonna learn more about being a son sonship and being an heir in the kingdom that we've known their whole life I hope you'll get the book on sonship and so anyway that's not talk if you can second LIF and bring him to a Cincinnati that'll be fun I'm looking forward to Cincinnati George Gans waha but he can play that he's been to come to Bullard oh that's Wow one time I had George and there and I don't speak I just speak Texican and so I told George and I said I want you to get up and speak to me some Bulgarian and he gets up and he starts speaking in Bulgarian and I in the hear these words and so I just start saying what he said he said I didn't know you spoke well during us I don't but I was speaking what you know just that best interpretation of tones honestly in that Wow Oh Georgian mm anyway I hope that's not too far from here less than 200 miles in it Cincinnati so y'all could come well it's sold out I think I don't know come on anyway this yeah yeah anyway a lot of stuff to talk about but here's what I want to talk to you about tonight you ready we got I don't know what time it is my plane leaves tomorrow at 3:00 so uh we got plenty of time don't you think yeah plenty of time you know timing is everything being in the right place for the right reason if your father God you follow the favor of God and you put you in the right place at the right time to meet the right people nothing in the world can compare to favor its if one of the most sought-out salt at one of the most repetitive statements in the Old Testament is if I have found favor in thy sight so it seems like favor would be something we seek to choose for and search for if I found favor so favor if you're looking for something you you need to be looking for favor the favor of the Lord say favor oh man there is a lot of verses in the Bible about favor I like I like Psalms 84 11 says he would give us a president they favor future glory honor splendor and heavenly bliss have you ever noticed if you follow God every step gets bigger and better for you that's it in the New Testament that be second Corinthians 3:18 as we behold him with an unveiled face were changed from one dimension of glory to the next second grin thien's 3:18 as we behold him with an unveiled face now see I can see you but I can't see you distinctly there's a veil in the way and so we behold him with an unveiled face I'll shock you with this statement the veil over the body of Christ keeping us from seeing the ruling reigning Redeemer in the majesty needs to be seen is one thing guess what it is tradition it's the only thing I founded the Bible more powerful than the Bible teaching for Commandments the traditions of men and making the Word of God of none effect traditions can keep us from seeing the Lord like he really is I've had people say well our church doesn't believe you that way hey this is the way it if they're not following what the Bible said they're going in error see this is not a bad news Bible charismatic Bible it's the only manual we really have so don't get in say well our church didn't believe that believe what this book teaches yeah well I don't believe in speaking in tongues well I don't believe what some people say about speaking in tongues oh oh did you hear the crack I think it's an error to say you have to speak in tongues as evidence of being full of the Holy Spirit you can't prove that in the Bible not one single time does it say Jesus spoke in tongues and he was absolutely full of the Holy Spirit not one single times that say John the Baptist spoke in tongues and he was filled with the Holy Spirit now I am far speaking in tongues you'll you'll be invalid spiritually if you don't really learn how to pray in tongues you pray in tongues not for your neighbor to hear you but to build yourself up in the Holy Ghost yeah the biggest enemy you have to pray in tongues is your own head it's because you want to know what's going on you need to say this ain't about you you're not praying to understand you're praying in the spirit to build up yourself the most holy faith anyway okay so here's what I want to talk to you about y'all ready another year here's what happened to me the other day just the other day I've been preaching 49 years and I was having this moment with the Lord I was thanking God and praising God and giving him reverence for all that he's allowed us to see oh my goodness 49 years of incredible things almost unbelievable things in this journey of 49 years so I was thanking God for all of that and the privilege of being involved in it and he stunned me he said to me you ain't seen nothing yet and then he showed me a verse in the Bible that teaches watch this he showed me a verse in the Bible I'll show it to you in just a moment it teaches all that we know about God from history past to this very moment all we know about God from history past to this very moment is but the mere fringes of his force all that we've heard about God from history past till this moment yes but the faintest whisper of his voice wow I don't know about you if you thought about the moves of God in the past all that we've seen in history past all that we've heard is but the faintest whisper and the mere outskirts of his doings we ain't seeing nothing yet I'm sure you the verse you want to see it bet you do yeah I find it here and get it for us it'll-it'll it's kind of nice it's done me man alive listen to what it says I'm reading now out of job and it's chapter 26 and verse 13 or by his breath the heavens are garnished his hand pierced the Swift fleeting serpent verse 14 yet these are but a small part of his doings the outskirts of his ways are the mere fringes of his force the famous whisper of his voice who dare contemplate or who can understand the thunder of his full and majestic power he said you better get ready for his full and majestic power all we've heard him do now is the famous whisper all we've seen up until now is but the mere fringes of his force in his power well say expectation said expectation God is gonna do stunts things that'll cause our jaws to drop in psalms 126 126 verse 1 it says when the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion then were we like them that dream then was our mouth filled with laughter and our tongue was singing then said they among the heathen the Lord has done great things for them it is something when God moves in the people in such a magnitude that even the heathen go good god did you see that says the heathen will say God has done great things Wow okay that's pretty Natan now we're going to the message you ready oh man here's one remember I said him don't talk about recalibration and I said today in the hotel I said God I know that I'm supposed to talk about recalibration but why is it so desperate and he said proverbs 14 14 is fine so desperate the backslider is filled with all of his own ways Wow see there's a way that seems right in demand but the ends of that way is dead now we need to recalibrate because we back slid yeah have used there's a list of scriptures this long in the Bible about backsliding none of them good Wow what is backsliding mean it means turning away from God letting your passion get cooler and colder distancing yourself from the passion that once pulled your heart towards the Lord and so what we need to do we got to recalibrate so if let's read that proverbs 14 14 you ready the backslider in heart the backslider in heart from God has the backslider in heart from God and from fearing God shall be filled with the fruit of his own doings and a good man shall be satisfied with fruit of his ways the backslider is filled with his own ways Wow that's why we need to recalibrate what would be a cure for that if we're filled with our own ways I believe Matthew 6:33 would be a good antidote seek first the kingdom of God and all the other things will be added to you we've got to get back to the art of seeking God Jeremiah 30 what 29 it says seek the Lord while he may be found call upon him while he's near 29 12 and 13 we got it this is a time to get a hold of God don't let anything get in your way of seeking the Lord it's early will I seek thee boy I'll tell you if you want to get the get convicted study the prayer life of Jesus said we get up away before daylight said he would spend all night in prayer he had no sense to confess no missteps to atone for and yet he felt this constant need to stay in communication Wow okay so would you take your Bibles please and turn with me to the book of Revelation we're going to talk about recalibrate we got to get back to the original point of accuracy I'm headed now to revelations chapter 2 revelations chapter 2 let's start if you will with verse 1 this is to the where the Lord is writing to the seven churches and this is the Church of Ephesus and it looks like they're gonna make a passing grade to start with listen listen you can you can follow along I'm reading out revelations chapter 2 verse 1 to the angel the messenger this of the Assembly the church in Ephesus write these are the words of him who holds the seven stars which are the messengers of the seven churches in his right hand who who goes among the seven lampstands which are the seven churches verse two this is this is what he's saying to him I know you're industrious and your activities and your Labor's and your tall's and your troubles and your patience and your endurance and how you cannot tolerate wicked man and have tested and critically approved those who who call themselves apostles special messengers from Christ and yet are not and you have found them out to be imposters and Liars I know you are enduring patiently in our bearing up under might for my name's sake and have not come under complete exhaustion you've not fainted you've not grown weary oh boy I want to go yeah then we get to verse forward but this is Jesus talking to the church but I have this one charge to make against you that you have left abandoned the love that you had at first you have deserted me your first love remember then from whence the heights you have fallen repent change the inner man to meet God's will and do the works you did previously when you first knew the Lord or else I will come and visit you and remove the lamp stand from its place unless you change your mind and repent wow that is a strong strong warning it sounded like these guys were doing great they had good doctrine but they had left their passion but I have this one thing against you look at it it says but I have this one charge to make against you you have left abandoned me your first love the church needs to recalibrate and get back to first love that's what it means to be back slidden that you've let something come between you and your passion for Christ Wow I don't say well you know I've got a new job and it takes a lot of time anything you're putting between you and your passion for God becomes an idol but you'll stumble over it's true but we've got to get back to first love do you remember how it was when he first got saved you couldn't keep quiet about Jesus I mean you talk you talk to fencepost if you could I'm telling you guys we need to keep that kind of theater we're excited about being saved don't ever grow blase about your walk with God nothing on earth is more important than your walk with God the Bible says we're going to give an account of every deed we've done in the body whether it's good or bad Wow I was giving an interview to a radio program once Wow and here's what the the lady was interviewing me and it was one of those kind of little catchy things and she said tell me why are you in this what is your real goal why do you call all the people and why do you go so many what are you what's it what's what's the real deal and I was gonna give her one these little tongue-in-cheek answers but I said nope you tell her what you really want I said I'll tell you what I do all did I do and why I go like I go why I do all the things that we're into I want to be able to stand before him and have him say to me well done good and faithful servant any other motivation is wrong I do what I do to hear him say well done good and faithful servant that is a motivating force in my life I don't want to live my life and then and step off of the page and people not know what's what Jesus is about so that's my goal to live such a way it pleases him I'm telling him ask him what he thinks about you well I know he loves me ask him to judge your heart and see if there's anything in there I prayed the prayer out I've never prayed if I know where was going have you ever been where everything's just right I was pastoring a church and everything was just right it was amazing had a big old mahogany desk and a leather chair stuff back come with me to that office there I am got they'd polished the desk it was everything was just wonderful so I didn't even bat my head I just kind of crook my neck a little bit like this and out of my mouth came these words it's a prayer to God Oh God if emphasis on if if there's anything wrong in my life show it to me oh my lord it was like he reached down with his finger and push the rewind on the cassette that's when they had cassettes when all the way back like that to the first meeting I ever did the first meeting in Atlanta that I ever did here's what happened he stopped the video there and he showed me the knot after the first meeting I've ever done I did it on Friday this is Saturday morning headlines of the paper written this big come see this man he's like Billy Graham and Billy Sunday merged into one and there was my picture I read that that Saturday morning come see this man he's like Billy Graham Billy Sunday merged into one I thought I thought I blushed and said oh how ridiculous but guess what the real Bobby Connor said well it's about time they see something God said to me that's arrogance and pride and it's a stench in my nostrils this is years in the past so I said to myself in my leather chair and I mahogany desk I better get out of this chair I got out of this year and I turned around put my face in the chair to pray that was just the beginning of atrocities things that meant nothing to me we're still on the books with God attitudes and actions so I dare you to say Oh God I give you permission to search my heart you might be so deceived in this room and say well I'll tell you brother I don't need that I've already searched my heart we're incapable of doing that Jeremiah 1710 says our hearts are so deep and dark we can't know them but the Lord judges the heart in it Psalms water some says search me O God and try me see if there be any wicked way in me some 139 23 search me O God try me see if there be any wicked way in me and lead me in a way that's eternal and everlasting give him permission to search your heart if there's anything there instead of sweeping gun to the rug what are you going to do first John 1:9 if we confess our saying he's faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness Wow we need to keep the slate clean that's true you say well I don't know no he already knows it just come clean with you there's nothing like being able to look at yourself in the mirror and not be ashamed I mean listen with an open face just don't you want to walk upright no good thing with the heart Lord withhold from he that walks at right Wow it's a wildest thing well if you walked upright God will give you the desires of your heart it's true I could stand here all night long and tell you things that I've wanted that I didn't even need that I did God gave him to me yeah years ago I had a good car but I wanted to pick up truck everybody in Texas needs a pickup truck so I wanted to pick up truck and I could have bought a pickup truck but I just didn't want to buy pickup truck I want him one but I didn't want to go in debt for a pickup truck so anyway I read that verse when a man's ways please Lord here give him give him did he stars of his heart so I said I desire pickup truck so I just left it there I don't know how many weeks after what then I get a call from two towns over from a Chevrolet dealer and he said well your trucks ready I said sir there must be some kind of mistake uh I said I don't have a truck he said you the pastor of the church I said yes I am he said there's no mistake your trucks down here I drove down there somebody had paid 100% for a brand-new truck I got in the truck and drove home God is 120 miles an hour on the way home just you know they talked about breaking in has a wild truck that's pretty well no fanfare no no bidding know who to send a thank-you letter today so that was a truck now listen I know this sounds greedy but I wanted a Ford Bronco [Music] that the big Ford Bronco the head so I already had some history with the Lord about the truck so I started looking for Ford Broncos I'd go down to the Ford place and I could have bought a Ford Bronco but that wasn't the deal I just couldn't justify buying one when I already had a car and a pickup but I wanted Ford Bronco so one day I opened the paper the tiler paper and a ad stood out like this and a man had a brand new Ford Bronco for sale yeah and the Lord said I'll give you that Bronco I said okay so I Drive it was that Lindale so I that's a little town outside of Tyler so I Drive to lyndale and I pull up there and the old the old man comes out I've never seen him before in my whole life and so I said up I'm really interested in this Bronco and I want to get this Bronco and I said now I don't have the money to pay for it now but I've got great credit the bank I can get any kind of lonely need but here's what I want to give you for the Bronco and it was way way lower than the value of this Bronco and what had happened the old man that I had bought it to have for a ranch out there and he didn't like the way it was or something anyway anyway well I'm negotiating over my Bronco the Ford dealer drives up the man that owned the Ford dealership in that town drove up to buy the Bronco and he says to the man well if you want to sell it here's what I'll give you for it I mean it was really the market price and I'd shot away under that and the old man goes oh yeah no I won't him dad I'm talking about me I said now you understand I don't have the money I'll have to go the bank and get me alone he said yeah I want you to have it so the other guy a little he drives off grab offline so I get the keys to my Bronco hadn't paid for it so I Drive to the bank south side State Bank and I go in and guess what I made me alone for the Bronco so I think it was like I don't know three hundred and fifty dollars a month for 37 years or something like that is the craziest thing you've ever seen I had it stretched out as far as you could do it you know and so I just everything was fine so I'm enjoying my Bronco and the month went by that is time for the first payment for my Bronco I'm out in the front yard of the Parsons they lived in the parsonage and I was at I was out in the front yard the Parsons played football with my son Sean and I thought oh god this is the day I'm supposed to make the first payment and I'm out here in the yard playing football with my son so help me God a car drives in the driveway pull down there right mash the window a window comes down like this I walk through there and out of the window there was an envelop stuck so I took the in development I said what's this for it the car backed out and pulled off and it says for your Bronco the day the first payment was due a check came in that paid the whole thing off God said I told you I'd give you a Bronco and so he gave me a Bronco so I put headers on it lift hit I put header that was my pastoral vehicle I put a big lift kit on it big mud tires and headers out the side see they drive the pastor world car in front of the funeral I could bear him in any place man that was that was a bad truck boy had a for 51 wins or any in a big four-barrel this big around yeah see God you said well why don't that happen to me when a man's ways please the Lord he'll give him the desires of his heart find out if there's anything displeasing and get it rectified we got to get back to her first love one of the ways I get stuff is I stay childlike yeah the quickest way defend God it's getting to where you think you deserve something we deserve hell and we get all the blessings of God we got to stay you know it's easy to become childish but we need to come childlike don't you think except we becomes a little child we can't say we enter the kingdom and well that's good everything okay we got to get out here yeah it's gonna be late here in a minute so know what you gonna do with your life you know yeah we talked about that yesterday didn't we yeah did you got the Ephesians 5 verse didn't you yeah Ephesians 5 that says what would go away my true purpose don't be ander around aimless Ephesians 5 14 through 18 read it out of the classic amplified version you can google it on gateway and it'll pull it up free for you I like this how'd you do that I want to can I pull mater that's meet mine grows out and I look like a wild walrus it won't lay down it just sticks out like this yeah Steff falls in it I like the guy they had a guy playing had a big little beard looked like a chipmunk could have been under there people get beards and they get slick like the back of a mink mine looks like it's bad you put stuff on it that's my problem and they did yeah look at a softie I'm in Miami preaching in a Cuban church all of those guys had the most magnificent hair you could imagine down in Miami and a Cuban church these guys had the wildest haircut you could imagine and most of them had bonds these men buns and it hit me I said listen I got a new idea for her her style rotate the man bun to the front wouldn't that look cool it'll be like that Psalms 92 teen my horn is exalted like horn of the unicorn but that that was fun did I'll tell you when I went to I went to Vienna Austria me and Rick Joyner's a big old Colosseum in Vienna Austria my time to preach so I get up there to preach and instead of preaching I look out in the middle of crowd - a woman never seen never been there my whole life and I said hey I want you to give me a haircut and she says in perfect English yes I had my equipment with me Rick Joyner said you know that woman I said never seen her in my whole life and so we went to the men's room in the Coliseum and Rick had to hold the door open while this strange woman washed my hair and gave me a haircut she was a hairdresser for the Philharmonic over there I'll go back to next year she cut my hair again you know somehow I just stumble into those things yeah Rick said what if she couldn't cut hair I said hadn't been okay in a couple of weeks I'm in Tulsa Oklahoma preaching and there's a little lady sitting out in the middle of crowd and I said ma'am would you stand up and she stood up and I said I want you to bake me a pie and she looked at me the sweetie she said well certainly so the pastor said Mary said you know who that is I said not only who that is she's a famous pie Baker she's her pitchers in all of those magazines at home and garden she begged me to the prettiest eyes you've ever seen I took pictures of him before I destroyed him yeah but she was a famous pop Baker see all you got to do is just kind of be chilled out just kind of meander around and see what happens I'll tell you the problem I preach all over the world I found pastors afraid of the Holy Ghost so I got into a big study with God to find out why pastors would be afraid of Holy Ghost I finally found out why here it is they can't control him that's why they're afraid to holy ghost you can't control him you can quints him you can grieve him you can vex him but you can't control him it's like the wind you don't know where it came from you ain't sure word wind we better be led by the Holy Spirit don't you enjoy being led by the Holy Spirit oh it's wild I'm gonna find eating John occasionally people invite me to these country clubs and places like the O and so I've got one of those invitations and it's gorgeous they've got a wonderful meal there and there's other people if you're noticing them fancy places they whisper but they're anyway Texas you better make a sound with that fork you know it's time to meet so tough you've gotta put a little pressure but anyway I'm in this fancy restaurant with these people and it's it's really they've done a lot of stuff to make it nice and so the little lady that comes so the Lord said I have a word for her I said Oh God okay he said now I want you to give it to her I said I will so here are everybody's whispering where over there in a table and so here comes the little waitress like this with the stuff and they hide it under a hubcap strangers things comes up and so I thought the Lord had told me what to tell her and I thought well that couldn't cause much of a scene you know what I mean so she's standing there and said ma'am the Lord has a word that I need to tell you and here's the word he said to tell you yes you are a survivor now that doesn't sound that's a here's what she did she goes ah and threw the tray straight up in the air and falls in the floor and starts screaming and crying like you couldn't imagine and jumped up and ran to the door I mean in a quiet I mean it was a meal in the floorshow can you imagine that it's you can't imagine what it did in this woman's heart that God told her she's a survivor Wow Wow so of what we got to do is just say what he says can I tell you one more story about me and my adventures in those places I'm in a place and you have to call him to get reservations and you had to wear a jacket let me tell you a couple of things you ain't gonna fool the food ain't gonna be enough to fill up an app but anyway they got me in this fancy place the pastor dr. so-and-so and his wife they're wonderful people who are pastoring a church and they're wonderful so they got us this reservation at this so let's go in here we go there's a little girl a little woman back behind the counter in the little table there and she's dressed really really nice starched white shirt and a black apron looking thing so we come in and I'm following the pasture nice when we come in so she's there and he says uh go he gave her name she said yes you have reservations could you follow me and when I looked at her the Lord said uh she doesn't know me as Savior but I'm gonna give you a prophetic word that she knows you could never know and it'll turn her heart to me and she'll get saved such that'll be great so we go to our meal and we set down and they bring the food and it's wonderful food and I'm just kind of picking at it because God said I'm going to give you a word and I'm picking at the food thinking about the girl and that the pastor said bobbies are something wrong with the meal I said no no it's wonderful it's wonderful and he said well you're just picking it what is it and I said well it's that girl that checked us in she don't know Jesus but God's gonna give me a secret of her heart that she'd know I could never know and it's gonna lead her to Jesus and he guess yes that's what I've always wanted to see power evangelism that's what he said sir I said okay so we go back up there to the booth to them and there's she's she's maybe a college age I don't know 20 something years old maybe older than that so I'm here and I'm looking at her and I said ma'am I am so sorry but the Lord has spoken to me and told me that you don't know him as Savior but he's gonna show me a secret about you that you would know I would never know and it'll so get your your heart and you'll give your heart to Jesus she said well I don't know him so now we're in more than fancy places everybody's got a suit and stuff and there so I'm waiting for God to give me the word about this girl now it's going to scare you but hang with me and way that's I'm waiting on the word and while I'm waiting on the word I go into a trance here's what I see now listen to me real careful right here on the girl I see a black widow spider a tattoo I see go all the way up her thigh across her and get right here to her bellybutton and made a nest first I thought it's a demon Lord said nope it's me so I said with a lump in my throat yeah that's what I said well III don't want you to take this wrong but uh the Lord has shown me you have a tattoo of a black wood spider here on the inside of your thigh and it runs up and gets in your belly button she screams yes and ripped her blouse up

service tonight what that's all yes Lord it was marvelous he said you believe what happened there was me don't you I said yes Lord I know it was all the people falling out drunken the Holy Ghost I said yes I'm I know it was you and then he said you know if I did it there I can do it here 2:00 a.m. in the morning so I got it I was tired of eating I said lord I don't know what you mean he said if I did it there I can do it here and across the bathroom here where this group setting over there was some other people in a booth he said I want you to get up from here and I want you to release it on them I said I don't believe they were in the meeting he said that wasn't what I told you so I stand up to a.m. in Shreveport in this all night eating joint and there's people in a booth over there and I said hey stand up they stood up and I said here take this and the Holy Ghost goes over there and knocks them all down six or seven people on the floor just out hotha Oh Lord so walk oh there they're drunk they're laughing they're just and some I'm looking at him and the little waitress comes running up she goes what happened I said I prayed for him she said oh I wish you to tell me I've already called the police this is true in comes the police I'm the only guy standing all the rest roomer down there and they go what happened here and I said well I prayed for him I'm not as well been talking martian they said you did what I said I prayed for them and they still couldn't understand it I said you mean to do to you they're gonna know yeah yeah well but anyway see Christianity is exciting you just go around and I can't even start with my deals on airplanes we've seen dead people raised on the airplane died there listen crazy but see you've got to be loaded wear your hat you can't just get in and turn it on on Sunday daddy if you can turn it off when you walk out there I don't think it's God I like when you walk by people they fall out walk walk when you look hard to explain but anyway well good what's your name Tony god bless you what do you do Hey look out now one of you guys hit me in the head with something one time it's splitting head you sick finger and I got to hold my head he said get in the car I said I ain't get in the car he hit him in the head with something I'd have driven for him after that but yeah I broke in the jail that's the truth you've never had a preacher that broke in jail I have I broke in the jail you might ask I don't talk about that but Melissa what kind of policeman are you oh man listen I'd break in the hospitals get their drugs so him and sack shake you up and take a handful see what happened yeah it was the devil trying to race my mind but he missed did that's something ice honest-to-god truth breaking the hospital slow the drugs and sack shake him up and take a handful of them well anyway that's part your head you ought to get you can order from our office a story a tape of my whole life it says call from birth I tell you about the abortion attempt I tell you about when I ran drugs from Texas it's crazy crazy but I tell the whole story and I tell about getting born again the judge that used to lock me up bought me my first preaching suit yeah judge Winston Reagan he came to me later and he said you know why I did that I said no sir he said I'm a Methodist and Methodist don't talk like this he said a voice came and told me about me my first preacher sued Winston Reagan I used to preach in the first few rows would be full of policemen to see if it was me this is your honest country we had a gang called the redress we'd set signs out in the anthems Texas and stop traffic and make them pay a toll to come through yeah that's right okay but the way of the transgressor is hard and you know hit me a phony but one thing about it thank God I got saved before the Taser they to lift me up like a Christmas tree man did got I don't blame I don't blame the cops I was it was just crazy you know but I had the fastest car ramp at that time I had a 57 Chevrolet with headers coming out I could break a car window the glass windows in the store just by the vibration of the car yeah when I got saved to head this way anyway I got I'm ready to get out of here I'm just rattling on but here's the deal if God will use me you got a shot you know what I mean God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things we don't deserve one single thing but I'm telling you the Lord has been so generous and he is merciful in me and I want you to know the night I got saved I'd run a double-barrel shotgun up the roof my mouth flicked the safety off and I'm one flick of my thumb away from hell the whole car filled with demons they were screaming do it do it do it now Wow I started shaking like a leaf I wasn't afraid of anybody then I started shaking like a leaf I'm down in the woods in a car and the car got colder than ice push the safety back on threw the gun in the back seat of the car drove back to the church I let my wife and my little son out I was gonna kill myself never see them again but I'll tell you what they were doing they were praying that God would save me when I pulled the door of the church on him that night it's late and I don't want to see Matt then it's probably I don't know 15 till 11:15 after 11:00 something like that and I pulled it or open it there was Paul now so pastor I hated him I'd catch him the store not shoving my purse you might have beat him to death through this anything Ida beat him and he'd look at me big old blue eyes and he said Bobby I love you Paul now he's in heaven while I'm talking but here's what I saw when I pulled the door open that night I saw Paul announced praying I saw my wife and my little boy praying I saw Ronnie and Sharon Costin praying some young Christian couples praying in an old-fashioned mourners mansion here's what I heard him scrying now Oh God whatever it takes say Bobby see if they hadn't been interceding for me I'd have blowed my brains out I've been held instead of Ohio in that something see there's some people you can't talk to about God now I've tried to talk to me about God I'd kick her over I'd beat her up tear clothes off of her wouldn't give her the keys the car or make her face back up start walking eight miles to church Wow but they ain't that amazing that was a fallout 1968 Wow the night I got saved the Lord said I'm gonna send you around the whole world with the gospel I said to him fat chance but I wore out more passports than you can pick up God means what he says doesn't he so he's so faithful yeah anyway yeah but I'm enjoying life nearly everybody I ran with then they either got saved or they're dead you know everybody I ran with in they either got converted or they're dead no middle ground no just growing old they the way the transgressor is hard the devil wants to kill people you serve Him you won't last long daily anyway one of my friends good Lord then I'm through with this story one of my friends he was the most handsome guy he could have been a movie star so help me gorgeous-looking man honestly and he was anyway I'm preaching a meeting I'm saved I'm driving that Bronco I told you about I'm driving it down going to the meeting is rattle out and I hear a horn Boehner turn and look over the other window and there's Jimmy driving this this sports car we pull over in the parking lot of a store and I get out and I hadn't seen Jimmy in years I mean this guy and he had married a money all man's daughter had more money than you could imagine could about anything in the world and married the all man's daughter had this wonderful sports car opened the console there was cocaine there was wild turkey and all kind of stuff and he run a line across and I said nope I don't do that anymore I've given her a heart to Jesus Christ I'm serving him and he's the real deal and I talked to Jimmy about Jesus sitting there in the car and here's what he told me listen to me he said if that's what you want you go your way I'll go mine and I patted him on the shoulder got out of his car and he wiped the cocaine out from under his lip drove off he goes back to middle limb Texas the middle of Texas down there the whole country and his wife was being unfaithful to him with another man he walks into club a shotgun shot his wife his head off turned it around and shut his head off the last words I heard him say was you go your way I'll go mine I'm telling you guys serving the devil is a high cost serving God is nothing it's our reasonable service Wow Jimmy's in hell he could have been in heaven Wow so we got to be faithful to share the gospel I am good dr. Dunn I'd love to sing him sage my other friend Chester Oh Chester had a beard down along the side he stood pat behind his head when you ride the motorcycles Nance got a great beer to steal down to his belt if you want to see a redneck look up Chester Kennedy he got his beard caught in a peace shower yes I mean if that don't qualify you to be a redneck you'd anal redneck in Texas they got an automatic peace shelter it's like a washing machine rotor it's got little things and you put the P in there and it spins around pushes a piece out so Chester's wife Lorraine y'all didn't member her Lorraine was riding the Kubota tractor out in the yard with headphones on listing the George Strait Moe in the yard and Chester is Pete sailing and Chester's beard gets in the peace Yeller and he can't get to the shutoff switch and his fooling him through like that and he screaming aah Lorraine is on the tractor chilling out with George Strait and finally she hears Chester screaming she runs in there and this piece Yeller is pulling Chester into it by the beard like this and guess what Lorraine said hold it I gotta get the phone we got to get this on video now where's reality TV when you need something like that you've got to be a redneck if your beards caught in a piece Yeller and your wife wants defend it yeah thank God you might say what about Chester well we got in the knife fight and the guy cut his nose off started here with all the way here snows fell down to his belt look out yeah three o'clock in the morning so we picked Chester up to his nose and face back on tadow blanket around him off through the hospital we go three o'clock in the morning to get Chester's nose so back on every time his heartbeat sound like you poured five gallons up we get there and I can't tell you exactly what the doctor said but something like gee whiz I can't sew this on I go I can't either 3:00 a.m. in the morning he's so Chester's no zone with the thing like you saw a feed sack so this whole face back together yes Chester still living googling so dis nose back on and it's what ended up so perfect didn't attach any ligaments or anything it ended up so perfect later on the code in Houston - uh what are these uh Plastic Surgeons and they were amazed so you supposed to tie the muscles back together but in there something Chester got his nose cut off it fell down like you'd drop the flap on the tailgate of a truck or something you know that's how we grew up oh man I get to thinking it's a wonder we made it but here's the deal God's got a plan and if you just let him here work it out what I want to pray for you I know you will prayer from somebody like me but honestly I'm probably one of the happiest people you've ever seen I'm serious I'm happy from the inside out I tried all that other mess that ain't happiness you come off of that you're lower than you were when you went up this gets better every day okay let's find out is there anybody in this room that's never given your heart to Jesus Christ greatest miracle you can ever see as a believer is somebody get born again that's better than seeing a dead person raised it's better than seeing an arm grow out or a knife off in greatest miracle you can ever witness is a lost soul coming to Christ is there anybody here that can absolutely say bubby I have never really given my heart to Christ I've heard about him but I don't know him I don't know for sure yet my heart stopped I'd be in heaven tonight if you're here you can go out of these doors absolutely sure that Jesus is in your heart and your name is written in heaven if you're honest enough to ask him into your heart all that come to him healing nowise turn away he'll save you if you will come to him but nobody in this room can do it but you I've had young people say well you know my friends are here don't go to hell for your friends don't go to hell for anybody you say well this is a Christian meeting oh listen I've seen pastors get saved I've been in the meetings preaching when pastors got saved Wow see how do you get saved first of all you got to realize you lost what do you have to do to go to hell nothing stay just like you're born that's all you've got to do to go to hell now don't go out of here to say Bobby Connor believes that babies go to hell you'll never hear the whimper of a baby in hell they're safe but once you reach that moment of accountability from that moment on you're lost you safe when does that happen some say to alcohol listen listen I know 12 year-old who killed his whole family that's past the age of accountability wouldn't you think I think so I'm telling you the age of accountability is a moment you realize you're a sinner and you need Christ it comes at an early age now kids are not kids like they were when we were growing up they were maturing even doctors are stunned at their development physically Wow so something's going on but anybody here won't even get saved if they just raise your hand don't be ashamed Bible said if you're ashamed confess him before men he will be ashamed to confess you before his father in heaven anybody in here you can get saved now one day you'll say well oh man I wish I'd listened you know for sure if your heart stopped you'd be in heaven well let me ask you this if that's if you say yes let me ask you are you living like you should or do you need this recalibration do you need to come back to God see God I've got some things in my life I don't want there all you got to do is confess it to him I don't need to hear it pastor don't need to hear it he's the mediator there's mediate one mediator between God and man that man Christ now it is good to have somebody to talk to and counsel with but that's not the answer the answer is getting your forgiveness from him and I promise you he will forgive you and he'll cleanse you from all unrighteousness I love Isaiah 1:18 come on now let us reason together saith the Lord though your sins be as scarlet they can be as white as snow is there anything you want to give up I'm not going to ask you to raise your hand because listen it's between you and God but if you'll ask God do you say well Bobby got some problems with pornography you cannot imagine how rapid that is in the body of Christ male and female pornography now is predatory its searching for you you don't have to look for it and let me tell you say well I'm an adult I can I can filter no you can't you can't handle that let no thing like that come through these gates if it comes through this gate and this gate it'll get down here and it'll act out here so if you have a problem ask him to take it from you there has no temptation taken you but which is common demand and God will not allow you to be tempted above what you're able but he will make a way to escape he'll take it from you if your lady Wow you say well javi I've got some problems with addiction well huh I know how that feels you get to take the video I talked about it's a CD a call from birth you'll find out when I came home they tied me in bed and I begged my brother to kill me I was on dope they tied me in the bed with bedsheets and bathed me off for days with alcohol and ice cubes every hair only be on fire I begged my brother to shoot me in the head crazy crazy but uh one morning I woke up and I was hungry and that crazy and even in that the devil got in it kicked the drugs with the help of my sister my brother they stayed up 24/7 for days bathing me off that morning I woke up I was okay from the withdrawals of drugs so I'm gonna go to town hadn't been in town for a long time and my mother was ironing my blue jeans there's something tomorrow's Mother's Day my mother's in heaven but she was ironing my blue jeans and big old tears would run down her cheeks and they would fall on the blue jeans and even standing here tonight I can hear as harm would go over the tears of my mother our name I believe cheese and I said to my mother an ironing board between us I said mom why are you crying because I was getting ready to go to town I hadn't been to town in a long time I've been tied in bed but I was now I wouldn't sick from drugs anymore and I told my mother she said Bobby don't go to town there's something about a mother there's something in them an intuition that is undeniable she's - Bobby police don't go to town and I marked her I slapped her on the shoulder I said mama think can't you see I've kicked drugs eyes I've kicked drugs I put on those blue jeans put me on a nice shirt I took off to town cranked up a fast car I went to Athens Texas I wasn't in Athens Texas 15 minutes till I'm back behind the B&B cafe with a needle in my arm and the five drugs running through me I'm arrested put in jail I'm standing at the bar my mother comes up the next morning she's standing right there and she said can't you ever quit and I said to her no no I can't that's when I made up my mind this is all I'm gonna do it was during that time when I got let out of jail I met Caroline Wow didn't that amazing got born again the fall of 1968 I mean genuinely born again drugs left I went to places to apologize and try to make things right that we had done crazy but anyway God's got a plan now you don't have to be a wife beater and a dope addict Aviv Jesus you just need Jesus but he wants you to come into his family well anyway I hope you order that thing I tell the whole rancid story I'm telling you just to be quite frank I'm a walking miracle fell out of a tree cutting my guts out they fell on the floor just like you'd gutted a deer crazy stuff man shot knifed but see if God be for us yep I'm alive because people prayed my sister she she's a the only one of my family living now yeah good gracious you talk about something well anyway I've spilled the beans yeah you believe he's got a good plan for you you believe his plans better than you could make for yourself what you need to do is spend some time not in petition but embrace most of our prayer life is oh god I need wouldn't it be wonderful if we just came to praise Him and thank him for what he's done if you want to get his attention come before him with praise all of us have things to praise him about we I love when Pastor was praying we talked about listen we need to thank him just for the freedom we have we live as kings we do you said man I'm good no we live as kings isn't that something well Heidi well let me pray okay father I want to thank you that you're a good good god I want to thank you your ways are perfect I pray for every person in this room I pray that we make the right choice and that right choice is saying yes to you I pray those that listen and watch my media got up here your stir hearts I pray for those that feel hopeless and they feel like that nobody loves them there's no way out of the trap they're in I pray this prayer over them I pray this verse right now I waited patiently from the Lord he inclined it to me heard my cry he brought me up out of a horrible pit out of the miry clay he set my feet upon a solid rock he established my goings he put a new song in my heart even praising their God many shall see it in fear and shall trust the Lord Lord I pray that'll be a living reality with everyone watching and those that hear Lord let him say they can't fall in the pit so deep that your grace
