ministers it's good to be in the house of the Lord you may take your seat until your neighbor I'm glad you're here praise the Lord praise the Lord I so enjoyed the minister that spoke a few minutes ago talking about hardware and software and the reason why many people are leaving the church because they came to church for hardware and many people are giving up on the church because nobody touched the software and they're committing suicide they're depressed they're going into other religions because they really hate their life and when you only have hardware you will hate your life because hardware does not last the car gets repossessed the house goes into foreclosure and if you don't have something else to hold you you just can't make it amen amen so on that note my new book I hate my life amen it's available tonight and it talks about how we can stop the hating and start the loving amen how we can start loving God for who he is what he's doing what he has done because he doeth all things well amen amen so please go back I'll be there to sign the boat amen now my assignment tonight is to bring you the Word of God I'd like you to turn a very familiar passage of Scripture the Gospel according to Saint John chapter 12 chapter 12 and I'm just gonna read the first eight verses very quickly I'm sure you have your Bibles or your phone I'm not sure what we do with the phones in church but you can at least act like you doing some one Saint John chapter 12 beginning at verse 1 and ending at verse 8 here begins the reading of God's Word then Jesus six days before the Passover came to Bethany where Lazarus was which had been dead whom he raised from the dead they they made him a supper and Martha served but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard very costly and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment then said one of his disciples Judas Iscariot Simon's son we should betray him why was not this point range sold for three hundred pence and given to the poor this he said not that he cared for the poor but because he was a thief and had the bag and bear what was put there in then said Jesus let her alone against the day of my burial she kept this for the poor always you have with you but me you have not always so far the reading and hearing of God's Word and the title tonight have two of them so in whichever makes you feel comfortable one of them is a kind attempt for piety a contempt for piety or stop scorning my zeal stop mocking my zeal there's so many movements out that I don't know which movement is which anymore because they change movements but in the church world we are constantly confronted with all different kinds of ideas and thoughts about what God is saying what the church should be doing etc etc but one of the things that has happened down through the years and is it's on the rise is that Mochrie and the fun and the disrespect of some of the most sacred things that we do in the church when it comes to praise and worship when it comes to expression of praise and worship when it comes to how we express our love for God our commitment all of that seems to be played down and people seem to take fun and poke fun of it even even the ones at the church have lost their excitement and have powered down the expression they call it cultural they call it animalistic they call it brutish and so many times we sit in the church and we've become extremely academic everything is very cerebral you know we we take notes and we go to school which is all wonderful you know we just sit quietly and we come in and out and we go through some kind of church experience but that that excitement that that love being an Amer dwith just being in the church and fellowshipping seem to have gone that's why people don't come to church anymore because they don't have to they don't they don't have that connection we have given up the baby with the bathwater we've got one group who teaches very well word of God sounds straight from the book extragenic li correct I'm and eunuch Li correct you can take notes and become a theological giant but no expression of praise or passion and if you dear Express anything like that you're called an intellectual pygmy you're Cleveland considered to have any culture or class then you have the other group all they do is do a lot of physical emotional stuff but without any word is there a balance is there a biblical sound way of having the marriage of both where I know him but I'm crazy about anywhere well I know how to to talk about his word I can define my faith I can articulate my faith but at the same time I'm not apologizing for the fact that I can run around this church and give them the glory and I'm not going to take back my expression of faith to make somebody coach comfortable or accept me as being legitimate well in this book of John and I love John's Gospel because he's not part of the synoptic we know synoptic means that they saw the same thing Matthew Mark and Luke you know they all had their different information but similar very similar John was in the class all by himself and John's main theme was to talk to you about the humanity and divinity of Jesus that he was a very God of the very God but the very man of the very man human and divine in one nature not a freak but God in the flesh Immanuel God with us and so the theme of his book is he's written that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God and in believing you might have one life so he was very strong and the word became flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory the glory of the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth meaning Jesus came to bring us close to God and when you see Jesus and what he teaches and how he lives and how he handles life you get a glimpse of what God is all about that's simply what it means so what's going on where is Jesus in this text he's coming out of the country or he came up to the country six days before the Passover and he came to Bethany's a little town not too far from Jerusalem and he came to visit friends Jesus had friends not only had friends when he went to dinner parties he's not like me that go back to my hotel he ghosted dinner parties and he has these friends and this is not the first time he's going to be visiting but it's the last time he's going to visit before he goes back to glory it's a very significant time it's a it's a very emotional time it's a very special time so he comes in and of course some people say that this is same as Matthew the 24th chapter because you have to accountings that are running side by side and they're saying it's the same things marry in that into Matthew 24 it's Mary here you can figure that out theologically go back to your your your classroom and figure that out what we want to talk about tonight is from John's point of view and and here we have Jesus sitting at a table Martha is cooking she's not fussing at this time because Jesus already fixed her he fixed her he told her how to handle his visits and how to handle Mary so she's working and she's serving you know lamb stew and pita bread and you know I'm saying fish all the stuff that they eat at that time and the disciples are there and they are reclining they don't sit straight up as we do in the West they sit on a couch and they just recline and their feet are hanging down and so they're comfortably eating because you see the food was feast and fellowship just like we do in church we had feast and fellowship our souls are fed and then afterwards we get together and fellowship that's cool so a lost art everybody runs out and and fellowship at the local restaurants or whatever but there was a time when the church stayed back there was a time when we had the dining room I remember going across the street to the dining room and sitting with the Saints it's how come I remember some of your faces because we used to break bread together those things are being thrown out and that's why people are lost and scattered and then connected to the church there's something about fellowshipping you see you can sing at home you can pray at home you can even lay hands on yourself at home you can even take some grape juice and a cracker and some and do the communion at home but you can't sell a ship at home see the church is meant for fellowship it means that you come to contribute you come to give back what the Lord has given you you come to pour into somebody else's life you come to strengthen the Brethren you can't do that streaming so that's why you can be Hindu on one day and Buddhist on the other and you disappear for six months because you're not in a community when you come together and break bread and have fellowship you develop a community the Bible calls it the household of a thing my god that when you get sick we know you're sick and we come see about you boy is in jail and we show up in court so that your son can get some help your daughter your daughter is hanging out in a corner somewhere get ready to be abducted then we drive up and rescue your daughter cuz we're in hello oh come on ladies and gentlemen this is why people feel so isolated and depressed and separated so we don't know where you are the church is for fellowship the model is right in the text and Jesus stopped behind his friend's house for what fellowship breaking of bread eating together that's what binds people together so they're sitting there and some of the key things you know when you read the text there is hot like some things for you you don't have something made up it's right there and Lazarus acts at the table why would they even mention that he was sitting at the table that must be important the miracle and is sitting at the table the testimony of what makes a religion alive was sitting at the table Jesus had only taught but he performed miracles the church has dropped and of course we ascribed to a certain school that those days are gone that the gifts of the Spirit no longer operate in the church so we have a sterile church full of people with notebooks but no anointing sit down and take notes but yokes are not being destroyed because we would rather impress you that we're intellectual than to say well now I loose whatever happened to the whole egos interrupting the service whatever happened to the Holy Spirit casting out demons and turning the devil's kingdom upside down miracle sat at the table see we wonder if we want to be mega church and we want to be named people but it takes more than that that's a hardware the software is when you interrupt demonic activities in people's lives the software is when you look at that boy and said don't you smoke that electric cigarette anymore I see you in the corner smoking it and I rebuke that date thing off of you I just did it for somebody come on put your hands together for the moving of the Holy Ghost we're being mocked because we act like Jesus the people came to see Jesus because of Lazarus he was a living testimony that he's got the power to raise people from the dead and Lazarus his resurrection was an exceptional testimony that he is God come on you can question the widow of nain son you can question Jairus his daughter because they just went to sleep but you can't touch the Lazarus you understand because the boy was grave you are dead he was stinking he was stinking the worms were eating up his body the stone was rolled away his old body became nothing but beet juice and all Jesus with his awesome self had to say Lazarus come out of here boy come out of here I am the resurrection I am the life and Lazarus got up oh come on we need a resurrection anointing in the house come on and put your hands together I want to hear your praise it [Applause] doesn't have to be doesn't have to be sensational doesn't have to be theatrical because that's what we do we created theatrics that's why people are afraid of it and that's why they laugh because we make it to be a circus no it's part and parcel of our faith the exemplification of our faith the demonstration of our faith oh come on lay hands on the sick and they recover come on speak two dumb spirits and they'll speak we don't have to make a circus out of it and make a ministry out of it you speak the word and people get life is that how you got saved the word got to you speak the word a drinking a drunkard become a deacon speak the word that's what makes Church exciting because God is moving and operating not just lecturing so what's going on Jesus Jesus is getting ready to go up now soon it will be you know Palm Sunday and after that would be the crucifixion things are getting ready to accelerate and Mary beside it I'm gonna do something I'm going to anoint Jesus and she got some oil that she's been holding special oil it's called spikenard it comes from a flower from India or Asia it's extremely expensive it is worth what they would call a year's salary of a laborer there's a lot of money and she chose to give Jesus this expensive oil some say an ointment other people say at oil John said she poured it so it must have been liquid and she didn't ask anybody to pour it she poured it herself you see this thing called praise and worship can't nobody do it for you you got to do it yourself and long the reason why the church is in trouble because even men of the cloth don't worship anymore they sit and look they they they cross their legs and play with their phone that's why the church is in trouble let everything that hath breath crazy the Lord to his gates with Thanksgiving into its courts with praise that's why you impress people with where you've been to school and all of that and all of that is needed for it's right time your administrative skills your your theological stance all of that oh but when it comes to coming in the house of the Lord and getting the people to raise their hand and give God the glory and bringing people closer to God and giving them the ability to express their heart to God it takes somebody to stand up and raise your head and said let all the people praise Him my god I will bless the Lord at all times his praise shall continually be in my mouth come on David my soul shall make her boast in the Lord we don't need you to be cute we need you to demonstrate who God is he's an awesome God put your hands together I wanna hear you praise it whether you're prophet priests or King we've gotten too cute we've gotten too excited one of the Wesley brothers say come watch me burn in other words and I'm not asking you to come and burn you won't come and see me burn and burn means come and see my passion for God where is your passion for God are you so impressed with yourself that you can't come out of yourself and then you expect people to catch a fire when there's no fire the churches in trouble has gotten dry and cold and and and when we've gotten loose from each other we're cold towards each other there's no connection and no excitement there was a time when people would line up to come in the church they would stand around the corner and come but we've gotten cold they stay home and watch use technology because there's no connection oh but if we ever bring back the praise the worship and the prayer the Bible says Zacharias stood and the people stood waiting to see the smoker waiting to see that it's time to pray and when they saw the smoke there was a sound that came it means come on now it's time to give it up it's time to give it up come on there put your hands together come on and bring the church back bring it on back bring it on back now she'sshe's anointing without apology she's anointing his feet she's pouring it on this expensive oil being put on feet but whose feet is she anointing the one who stepped out of glory my God the one who walked the streets of Galilee and everywhere he walked he caused a ruckus My Lord Jesus he stepped into the gadarenes and the demon started to tremble and the way he put his feet the glory of God fell oh come on ladies and gentlemen this is no ordinary feet and he's no ordinary God that's why I don't know why we treat him so ordinary we treat him cheap and ordinary we come to church and sit down as if he's not great and awesome he deserves our praise he deserves our undivided attention he deserves the cause of our lips giving thanks he deserves a clapping of the hand he deserves a waving of the hand he deserves articulation he deserves some kind of verbal expression let the redeemed of the Lord say so come on put your hands together let me hear you praising we lost it we better get it back to drive to empty spikenard the best that I have we give leftovers and I'm gonna talk my money the best that I have I'm gonna give it to God the best of my time the best of my talent the best of my resources my god the best of my investment I may invest in a job I may invest in the business but when it comes to my investment in the things of God it takes priority that's what the old church used to do that's where that's why the church grew the Bible said that the church grew God added to the church daily because of the level of investment she bored what are you pouring what are you giving we have to beg you to say hallelujah we have to have a and B selection to get you to raise your hand we have to bring in a special singer and pay them thousands of dollars just to get you the way then you ain't waving up the song you waving at the artists oh come on here we got to do all kinds of calisthenics to get you out of your ungrateful attitude of a raise in your hand and giving him glory oh you forgot who you dealing with you dealing with the King of Kings and you dealing with the lord of laws you can't go to Buckingham Palace and walk up in their dress any kind of way and talk about you your Queen Elizabeth no you come into the house of God as if he deserves the better you raise as if he gave you breath that morning here you open your mouth as if he kept you from a stroke whoo come on some of us should have had a shock in our sleep [Applause] 12 ounces of this special oil poured on his feet they should did something that was outrageous because every now and then you have to have an outrageous expression of praise she pulled her hair down and now you don't know how you pull your hair now for everything else don't act like you don't know what I'm saying you know how you pull your hair down in the club you know all them here pulling all them carrying on yes this was not that kind of a party she pulled her hair down because hair represents the woman's honor and glory and she decided that my glory should be subservient to his glory and that I should took take my glory and wipe his feet that is the epitome of worship you see when you worship God you come off your high horse nothing that you are or ever hope to be should be on the same level oh come on here nothing nothing that you had you gave yourself God gave it to you so there's nothing that you should withhold from him withholding nothing oh come on we're trying to pay you to praise him I tell my people don't pay anybody to praise the Lord he's too good he's too wonderful he's too merciful he's too kind he's too forgiving he's a healer he's a deliverer he's an Emancipator he's a way make there's no other God like him his name is hello him he's Jehovah Jireh he's your homage alone and we owe him a praise not with our lips but with our lives come on Mary show us how to do it girl sure was that because we forgot how to do it the church has forgotten how to do it we get so caught up in politics we get so caught up in social changes and we forget the main reason why we gather we gather to honor him we gather to talk about him we gather to lift him high we gather so that all will know who he is we want everybody to know who we worship we want the sound to ring out of the sanctuary we want the sound to go down the street so the people will say what's going on they're praising their God oh come on here we want people to know that we have something to say oh we have a god that's been too good that we refused to be mute we refuse to sit back and not say something Mary Gabe or that she had in front of all these men and forgot about them and only thought about him see that's the problem we always want to think about them and forget about him we want affirmation from the them and when you want it that bad you gonna forget about him oh come on here Martha had a problem with it but Jesus said she chose the better part the church has given up the better part we are so busy trying to get attention from them that we forgot about him oh come on we want attention from leaders of the world who would be accepted socially by people in the street we want the world to affirm us we don't want them to think that we're queer or strange or different so we try to blend in and compromise and give up what we believe but until the church gets back to its place and let them know I think about him more than I think about you come on Peter and John don't preach in the name of Jesus Peter and John said wait a minute wait a minute wait one minute give me a few minutes give me a few minutes give me a few minutes let me turn let me think about what you're saying let me go find some people that believe what I believe let me go on back to my company let me go find people that really have church let me go find people that didn't give up Church here let me go find people that don't just gather socially let me go find people that got it wanted and keep it going and he went to his own company and they had a prayer meeting you understand because trust people have prayer meeting I know I said they have prayer meeting church supposed to have prayer I know you want other stuff going on but ain't nothing like a good prayer meeting ain't nothing that's how some of us got saved the old fathers used to gather up the altar and they used to pray for one hour we pray for two seconds and jump that's why we still crazy but ain't nothing like kneeling at the altar and calling him until something happens preying on till the heavens open up praying until sin shackles fall well come on we're gonna go to our own companies that know how to pray it was a time when people used to come on their lunch hour to pray that's why the church became strong they used to come you didn't have to beg them some of them had keys I had keys to the church and I would walk from the Harlem Hospital and go to the church and had prayer meeting at noon gave up my lunch hour that's how I was May able to make it through the storm we don't think about stuff like that anymore we just come up with special events so here we go Mary's telling us how to make it she anointed him with her hair and the Bible said she had some positive response the positive response is that it filled the house see when when you worship God it is therapeutic it has some aesthetic effect you you believe it from your therapist but you don't believe from the word see you you would rather believe that than to believe the word when you praise God it affects atmosphere and that ain't no mumbo-jumbo that's that's a Bible when you praise God the spirit of the place turns around and that's why the priest and the altar boys wait the incense you see it is not just mumbo jumbo it's the most cleansing atmosphere but incense represents prayer and praise that's why in some religion you see them walking in before service starts lord have mercy and you see them walk down the aisle and they weighed the incense that is not superstition that's libel and these incense were made of a special oils and they were made of so that can be sweet-smelling savour in the nostrils of God to wipe away ignorance and all the stuff that we endure the ugliness and the bitterness and the evil like God and the dirt and the messer that praise cleans the atmosphere somebody came in broken somebody came in depressed somebody came in dealing laws somebody came in in trouble but that one will appraise that one oh my god sitting next to somebody that prays on it I don't care how deep you're in trouble somebody that can praise you out of it come on that one praise never said the place filled you can't praise God right and give him his rightful - and talk about his character and his name and his purpose and it doesn't do something to somebody first thing it does something to you you understand when you start praising him right it lifts your spirit it makes you see him higher than your problems it makes you start feeling as if there's hope that's what's wrong with people today they're in church but they're hopeless hopeless hopeless hopeless hopeless cuz you got your mouth shut the most oppressed people are the people that don't praise they sit and look around and chew gum oh but if you want your mind back and if you want your mind back if you want to come out of it you start opening your mouth wide and you don't have to feel nothing praise is not based on feeling praise is based on knowing I know in whom I believe I'm not praising somebody who doesn't exist he's real he's alive and I'm gonna open my mouth and speak about who he is [Applause] many of our people are left the mainline black church because they said we make too much noise and we do a kind of stuff we haven't too many praise break and you go to a church where you just sit and take notes and the preacher walks off the pooping and leave you're sitting there and you're still fornicating stealing adultery still losing your mind don't have any hope don't have any direction don't have any whatever and somebody say they jump and they still do it oh but if you have the best of both worlds if you have the word and the praise if you have the praise and the word and the prayer that makes you a strong Christian come on here you can't do it without each other we have taken it and there's a polarization in the church world people don't praise and they just intellectualize people praise and know any word oh but there's a middle line right here there's a middle line right here there's a church somewhere that preaches and prese there's a church somewhere ah that rightly divide and cause you to lift your hands the word rightly divided will cause you to holler sometime every now and then when you get a good word you gotta say ow [Applause] [Music] isn't the praise is a sweet-smelling savour that's what God calls it and Noah build an altar after he came out of the ark and he offered up burnt offering and it smells sweet to God whenever these patriarchs experienced something they offered up a sweet-smelling savour which equals praise and prayer and he told Moses in numbers 15 he said speak to the children of Israel and said to them when you come into the land which I give you I want you to offer up something special a burnt offering a sacrifice and a vow a free will offering and make it sweet I like sweet praise I love it come on he inhabits the praises of his people when you open your mouth and give him glory it smells sweet to him when you raise your hand even though your heart is broken and lift your voice and let your broken heart know that God is still in charge it's a sweet Savior lord have mercy they just fired you off the job but your raise your hand and call him to Homer Tyra what a sweet smell oh come on this is what's wrong with us we don't praise Him Mary patriarchs and then they criticize us and that's my last point we're under attack because they want us to give up our expressions they call it barbaric they said we are animalistic and so we try our best not to appear so especially if we're going to be on television or if we're going to be on internet TV or whatever we don't want anybody to call us foolish so we we took on a certain posture in the church we we took on a certain look a look of up-and-coming educated well dressed people and we sat in the pew and we get a nice little sermon on how to be blessed and how to you know whatever whenever how to ascend to another level and all of that stuff and everybody walks out and jumps in their special cars their hardware's and walk out but the software is rotten it's leakin it's leakin it's or it's sore oh come on here why do you think preachers are leaving the pulpit and committing suicide because they had the hardware but something didn't happen up in here you understand you've got to make sure before you leave here something happens up in here you don't want to come here and spend three or four hours and go home with emptiness well come on you didn't come in here to spend all this time and go home still down and out and confuse and brain all shattered you came to get a word from the Lord that you came to raise your head and but somebody won't criticize you they criticizing me now Sam - I'm too emotional but passive lovers you know I've always been like that they used to say I was killing flies they used to laugh at me but my prays brought me through I love the word I love the word I can read the word all day long but my prays and my word brought me through after I got a word I broke out in the praise when I heard what the say in the Lord it did something to me on the inside it restructured my mind and ordered my steps it delivered me from fear and anxiety and out of all of that a heart of thankfulness so I got to raise my hand and give Him glory don't ask me to give up my praise cuz it makes you uncomfortable don't ask me to sit and act stoic cuz you ain't got no emotion the Lord blessed me with the ability to praise come on Judas Iscariot what's your problem what's your problem Judas why you why you having a problem with this woman she's not doing anything but honoring honoring honoring Jesus you're sitting here eating and self being yourself because we all intercepting ourselves but this woman humbled herself forgot about food and decided to honor him what's wrong with that Judas what is wrong what is wrong with the church taking a little time to honor God what what is wrong with our foreparents who came from the south to the north and all they did was sang their way through what is wrong with us singing those songs that brought us out of difficulty in shame and inhumanity what is wrong black half of us the only way we got here is because we put him first we open our mouth we didn't have any money we didn't have an army but we had our praise come on let me hear your praise a minute glory in a man under CMS glory glory glory glory glory club buddy unnourished that means hallelujah listen you're going to be criticized but I bet you the next generation is going to catch on fire I'm claiming the Millennials for this church I'm claiming Generation Z for this church and what we had somehow we didn't pass it on we got into a little funk and we started passing on certain structures and social things and whatever telling them how to did this and how to do that but we forgot to teach them how to praise we forgot to show them that it's all right to raise your hand and let your mascara run on your face and it is alright to cry to the Lord hear my cry Oh God attend unto my prayer from the ends of the earth will I cry unto thee and when my heart is overwhelmed own lead me to the bar leave me to the rock that is higher than has been a shouter a strong tower can I get somebody to help me right [Music] [Applause] [Laughter] what's the matter what's the matter judas what's the matter what's the matter were you having a problem with well well you know we have people who were poor and and this is a very expensive ointment and she should have sold it and given the money to the poor and the parenthesis is not that he cared for the poor the criticism was not the issue of the poor he didn't care nothing about the poor what he was having problem with he was getting ready to betray the one she was honoring and people who don't love him like you love him can't stand to see you worship him people who don't love him and recognise him recognize him for who he is can't stand for you to say hallelujah and they gonna find some reason to criticize your expression of praise yes we dance because the Bible said dance yes we clap the Bible said clap your hands all the people shout for joy with the voice of triumph yes we raise our hands up it's called Toder yes we extend our hands it's called Yad ah yes we get a little crazy it's called ha ha so we're right in the book we gonna praise him we're gonna pass it on to the next generation so you don't need an electric cigarette to get over the mom you don't need a little wine to get over the moment but those Weaver got to drink wine and reach oh but when you praise him it gives you what it takes to cook he strengthens your inner man he stirs your bachelor he put a new taste in your mouth it gives your conviction and [Applause] [Music] [Applause] in the Matthew in the Matthew 26 account it says that the woman with the alabaster box that the disciples became indignant has a very strong word ladies and gentlemen if you're indignant you're almost ready to murder that's some strong emotions over somebody honoring God this woman that poured the oil on his head and use her hair and you got indignant because she had the courage and the insight to give him what he deserves come on you know what a blessing it is to have an insight of who you serve it do you understand how blessed you are when you can recognize him for who he is when you can read a text and it messes you up for weeks when you can get this word and this word alters your thinking and transforms your life you can't stay quiet like that sake you can't sit down in church and look like this every now and then you got to do this I need you you can't open your mouth your gotcha the old talks that if I can't say a word I'll just wait they won't criticize us and we have tried to accommodate them that's where you made a mistake you tried to have them approve you of being sophisticated and intellectual and you lost the teenagers and you lost the Millennials and you lost the future of the church because you allow them same people to tell you that it doesn't make sense not only that when we go to the Old Testament David returned to bless his house and his wife that he hadn't been with for a long time went back to this palace that was built by Hiram king of Tyrel and he went up to his family's house to bless it and she stood and greeted him not with a kiss but she started to berate him and she said how shamefully you acted today you you hung out with all them dancing women and you did it in the street and you danced so that you got out of your outer tunic some people say naked I see naked but whatever outer tunic so that we cannot distinguish you from the average person see that's what hurts her she was looking for distinction she wanted him to be a king all the time and David knew where he came from tell your neighbor I know where I came from I know where I came from because I know where I came from I got to act like this I got that like this I've never even apologized and he turned around and told his wife they had seen her in a long time - the boy was really looking for a woman you understand now you know what men do with women at least some men now you know what men do with women when it's all about the lover of it's solar the keeper of his life the one who keeps you in flux Holzer the one who keeps you away from the enemy the one who blinded the enemy were you on one side of the mountain and he was on the other side and he still couldn't see you the one who kept his promise and put him on the throne we step back up here you touching something that's too sacred you trying to get in my business this ain't your business huh I might sleep with you but you can't touch her this [Applause] come on [Laughter] raise them up in here [Applause] and any made a commitment bishop he said if you thought I was crazy if you thought I was a little rambunctious I won't be more bad and won't take my prays to another level and I'm saying to the church this is a church conference are we passing on legacy pass this on take the praise to another level I said take it to another level and every seat will be filled in here tell the devil back up off of me I will not apologize for my roots I will apologize for the Lord brought me from I'm not trying to make you accept me here I'm already accepted I'm a child of the King Royal priest chosen generation chosen generation chosen generation peculiar people a darkness to show forth the praises to show forth the praises come on [Laughter] [Applause] now I said that was my little that was my little that was my little expression but Jesus has something to say taking every Jesus has something to say Jesus didn't allow her to be assaulted he stood up for her is what Jesus said back off of her let her alone you trying to make it difficult for her so why are you bothering this woman in Matthew 26 she has done a beautiful thing get up off of her in Saint John she had a vision that you didn't have because praise would make you see things he said what Isaiah said I ain't never seen nothing like this but when I saw the angels flying back and forth and they cried holy and another group said holy and another group Matt they said holy and another group you can't stand up under that honey it's holy holy holy it's called call-and-response come on cry it's holy holy holy holy and they said it over and over again until the place got smoking and Isaiah said when I saw her it mess me up I begin to see who I was said woe is me he's holy and I'm unholy and God said I got you boy I got you I got you I'm gonna clean you up I'm gonna clean you up I'm gonna have a candidate I'm gonna have a candidate for revolution who shall I send and who will go for me you praise him you get a sign Mensa when you're praising me get a glimpse of glory but you praise Him you get alteration when you're praising me get transformation leave her alone back up and people have always tried to stop people from getting close the son of might woman lost her son and she was on her way to see the Prophet and when she reached the mountain she took hold of the feet and gay haze' well you know he always had a problem yeah haze' pushed her away but a man of God said leave her alone she's come to get something the only God can give her the woman with Asia blood spin all a living going to the doctor and she came and touched the border of his garment and Peter and they were with him saying master what do you mean somebody touched you there's a whole lot of people here do you say hush your mouth cuz I felt it varchar let's my body oh come on here there was a woman of Canaan she's called the syrophoenician woman and her daughter was vexed you see the reason why we don't praise and we ain't got no vex children you see when you got some vet stuff you don't have cute in church when when you going through hell you don't have time to sit up here and cross your leg that's why you make so much noise and the other person moves over we'll move over baby cuz I got a vex daughter at home I got an electric smoking bathing child in my house and I want God to do something about it I can't change and I can't throughout but if I praise God he'll stop by and take the the tasteless cigarette out of my mouth somebody oughta praise him right now I said praise Him come on you blaming spirit crazy I said you are better praise that's what chats are to do [Music] the Bible said the Bible says no go ahead I can preach over some happening in her house the school wants to throw him out but God said I got it I got it I got it come on lay hands on that [Laughter] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] and the recycles she cried Jesus the son of David have mercy my lord is grievously vexed but he didn't answer word and his disciples came and said send her away in other words shut her up and that's what this sophisticated church will is telling you shut up you're making too much noise while your child is vexed while your boy is in prison while your school system is changing the curriculum to satisfy their preference oh come on here while the government is getting ready to squeeze out your 401k you got the nerve to tell somebody be quiet oh come on here and after a while the woman kept on hollering tell your neighbor I'm gonna holler some more and if you don't like it I'm going to the back of the church and if you don't like it I'm going down in the basement but I got to have some mercy I got to have mercy [Applause] [Laughter] [Applause] I need [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Jesus she said Jesus even the dogs eat from the table and he sent her home and the cells same hour her child was delivered now you will have to make a choice are you going to give up the access the demonstration the expression of your belief you have the word you need the words we're not fanatics we're not living by what we feel our feeling is based on what we know so you can call us all you want to we can quote a scripture we can talk about regeneration we can talk about Santa vacation we can talk about justification we know what we believe we have preachers that can cut the word and give us a foundation of who God is in our lives we can talk about the Psalms we can back up in Proverbs we can jump to the epistles we can back up in the gospel we can go back to Genesis and end up in Revelation we are not dumb people oh but we know how to call it and we know how to praise him are we not giving that up because that makes you uncomfortable and it has nothing to do with blackness and if you go to Israel and go to the Wailing Wall those men hop on one leg and do somersaults they act worse than black men and they're looking for the Messiah we had the Messiah and we don't praise Him come on let all the people praise I said let all the people praise it it's your moment of expression don't let anybody stop your praise don't let them stop your zeal go let them quench your desire go on apologize that you love him in the morning you love him in the noon you'll love it when your heart is broken how you love it when you're talking about it the day [Applause] [Laughter] [Applause] stand on your feet and race give him gold give him honor give it pray he's worthy he's worthy put the cause of your lips giving thanks with your heart turtle [Applause] [Music] [Applause] in Thailand

and the joy of the Lord is your strength listen we're talking about legacy and I'm so with it that's why I'm here tonight I'm so with it and I'm gonna ask the Millennials whether you're part of this church are part of the organization to come around this altar because we want to set you up we want to set you up don't walk run you're too slow the things of the Lord require haste just make sure you have on the right clothes see if it's too tight you ain't ready to praise you we had certain clothes to church so you could praise him come on this is a legacy it's your responsibility to be mindful of him it's your responsibility to get him what's his due amen you come to church not to show off your talent you come to church to give him honor David had the Ark of the Covenant on the hill of Zion and the musicians in heaven audience the audience was God and they learned to take courses how to pray their instrument for God we pray for each other but David was training them to play for God so when you come here you come to worship here you come to give them glory and don't be embarrassed you may not be able to do the two-step you don't have to do it like anybody else you're doing like you
