jail in town tell me the best hospital in town the best psych ward in town yeah better to be here hey Ben it's good to see everyone welcome on livestream so glad you've tuned in just participate same anointing that's moving here will come right through that camera amen hallelujah but we've had wonderful services last night and this morning praise the Lord just wonderful services but so we're excited about tonight I asked pastor Ike I'm starting to get this pastor Ike to come and give it to receive the offering this this evening almost said give an offering are you gonna give an offering tonight to all right come on out pastor Ike praise the Lord hallelujah let's say like people that are live unto God hallelujah it's a girl halleluyah halleluyah lets it be the name of the Lord blessed be the name of the Lord hallelujah amen alright you may be seated for second praise God praise God if you need an offering envelope oscars have them in the aisle they'll be glad to give you one and while you're doing that tone with me to second chronicles chapter 5 who read starting in verse 13 if you remember this account it was this was an offering service when they brought offerings you know and sacrifices on to the Lord and the biggest thing that happened here is seems to me is that as in verse 13 would skip just so we can get going he came to it came even to pass that as the trumpeters and singers were as one to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord and when they're lifted up their voice with trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music and praise the Lord for he is good for his mercy endures forever the Bible said that the house was filled with a cloud even the house of the Lord so that the priests could not stand to Minister by reason of the cloud this was an offering time amen this was an offering time and what the Lord is looking out of us is to come with a one heart heart that is so thrilled to see what God will do tonight amen you see that when you have a heart that's so thrilled about what God is doing it will show up in how you give it's not the amount it's the faith that's attached to it and when you're bringin you're going father I'm expecting you and you think about all the different things that he's done in your life how he brought you into the company that you are with amen and you hook up your voice together and you just give a much thrilled shout you tell him father we're so grateful we're so thankful you put us in the company for this error we're so thankful about what you're doing for this time father here is my faith you can't give God faith and leave empty Amen so when you all forgot your faith that's you bringing him your sacrifice of praise that's you bringing him offering Amen so let's do it together tonight as a house with one voice one heart contending for this era contending for everything that God planned you know nothing that's happening right now is a surprise to God he planned it he's just been looking for a group of people that will agree with him and say let it be so on the earth but most importantly let it be so now amen let it be so now let's say let it be so now say it again father let it be so now a man so that's what we do and when we do it correctly the Bible said the glory of God fills the place doctor told us a story one time about why they were receiving an offering that a wind blew through hallelujah and you remember in the Acts of the Apostles when they got together the Bible say each one brought something each one brought something and they supplied everything that was needed for that time and the Bible said that none among them was lacking you want to see the power of God for increase bring it by faith and say father here's mine stop looking at you know if I give I wouldn't have I if I gave I wouldn't just say father here's my seed I'm joining my voice with all these voices shouted on to you let it rain hallelujah amen are you ready tonight let's let God fill his temple with his power with his glory a man stand to your feet let me see some exciting faces come on hallelujah let me see some faith Oh into God glory to God glory to God glory to God [Applause] for the Lord is good his mercies and you're forever [Music] [Applause] go away the god father we bless you as we bring our offerings tonight father we declare you are our provider we declare we are in the middle of your plan and we declare because we are in the middle of your plan none shall want for you are our supplier we expect you to do marvelously tonight all we expect you to have your way in this house every seat that's given father made they multiply back to the soul good measure pressed down shaken together and running over every hitting good shall come in the name of Jesus if he our grocery man hallelujah [Music] [Music] [Music] if we confess the Lord [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Jesus [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] amen I'm expecting tonight turn around this somebody before your seat and say since I'm expecting I'm receiving hallelujah good evening everyone they know you praise the Lord well if you weren't here for pastor Ike's service this morning my goodness you gotta get it get it get it it was so so wonderful and I was talking to some back home and I sit and reading my notes to him the bad thing is that this on live stream so I can't say I preached this this didn't originated me I can't say this is what I think but anyway it was wonderful and so we're glad to be with you this week and there's a lot God has for us so how many say I've come to change tonight every service every service every service I've come to change why because we're changed from glory to glory glory more glorious on the other side of change so if you're done changing you're done having more but if you want more just keep changing amen how many of you know as the word comes in it'll change you because none of us have it all we're but we're reaching for it amen we have some items back at the book table my husband was he made often made statements that would just land in you and so we put together just a brochure here on some of his notable quotes so those are out there and I have I have oh my goodness hundreds and hundreds of pages of notable quotes that I've recorded through the years of other ministers and the conversations around tables and things because one quote can open up a whole window into a room for you and so those are out there they'll be a blessing to you they encourage you you absolutely absolutely and then we also have this the single CD up here believing for miracles you've never seen before and so just because you've never seen it doesn't mean you can't have it amen because every so many in the Newton in the in the word that we find that had miracles they had never seen God do those for anyone else before and so it's okay to have first-time faith man faiths work to happen the first time right and then we also have out there we have part 1 and part 2 of me teaching on how to follow the Holy Spirit and then we have also the book following the Holy Spirit there are two different ones in the sense of I this is not a this is not an audio book this is these are the actual sermons and so then we have it in book form so you kind of need both because things come out and are stated differently because I don't refer to you know I don't refer to the audio when I start writing the book and so those are out there they'll be a blessing you learn to follow the Spirit Jesus told ed Hagin if you learn to follow the spirit I'll make you rich there's no such thing as rich in abundance without following the spirit it's no such thing so the better we learn it the more we go into it amen and then we have also this one the greatness of God's power and this is one of my favorite books and for some reason I don't the title doesn't grab people at the cover design doesn't grab me for what it is it doesn't grab people but I tell you what people need to grab this because it talks about how to release the power of God every day but you don't have to wait for a service you know you can't and it talks about how to receive the power the flow of power that's in the service but you can receive it in your kitchen you receive it in your car you can receive it on the job you can receive it at your relatives house you can see them and if you'll know how to tap in because power is present everywhere and you don't want to do without it no sense of doing without it since it is present everywhere and then we also want to remind you of a few upcoming meetings we are having our annual ladies conference September the 27th through September the 29th we always have a great time at that this coming year it's again going to be Pat Harrison and Debbie Simons will be with us and so the three of us will be ministering we have five services that's a Wednesday through Friday so mark the dates down then also we will be having our annual holy ghost meetings I made reference to that last night the actual Holy Ghost meetings are January the 29th through February the second which is a Monday through a Friday but you want to if you're going to come you want to come not just on Monday you want to come and be there for Sunday because Richard Roberts is starting with us on Sunday morning and so you'll want to come and join us for that and then also we have what we called the frame faith journal has anybody in here seen those have you watched those yeah we we I don't know we've done it for several years now we've got I don't know around 50 different videos make more up I don't know how many are up but I've done all different ones on on all kinds of topics and I think our most popular ones so far have been on church history and I did a cut I did several on sister Aimee Semple McPherson I'm a real boob or thinner and people view that on YouTube but they also go to our Facebook page so it doesn't always record all the viewings that are on you know and on once on one outlet or so I think we have like around 35,000 views on just on like sister Andy's so you know some people are keying in and watching it and so just go to youtube and type into frame faith journal and that'll come up or you can go to our Facebook page and our website and you can access them through there but it'll be a blessing to you and we had sister Pat Harrison on there and hers was wonderful she talked a little bit about her and her husband's ministry then a bit about dad Higgins ministry and we're just blessed that God has given us a Bible School that's housed there in our ministry and it's a full time Bible School and I tell you we're thrilled at what God is doing in that suit in the school and in the students and its continued to grow ever since its home going and we appreciate that you know because things should continue and if if it's done right they will continue and so we want to continue to get the word out because it's a word and spirit school and so it is a full-time format and so what they have prepared you have back at forest guys great and so we just want to share a bit of a video with you to highlight and spotlight what goes on in the Bible school so you go ahead with that [Music] [Music] hi I'm pastor Nancy Dufresne I'm the president of world Harvest Bible Training Center I wanted to take a few moments and let you know what God is doing in the Bible school you know with every move of God every new wave of God church history shows us that God raises up Bible schools because every generation has to be evangelized and taught so world Harvest Bible Training Center is a place for those who want to come for training who say I believe I'm called to the fivefold full-time ministry but it's also a Bible School for those who say I know that I have a vital part in the local church in the body of Christ I want to find my place serving in the Ministry of helps then we want to help train you in either one of those capacities we know this that it's important that we receive impartation so that we can complete what God's called us to do world Harvest Bible Training Center is a place that impartation ZAR made its a caching school where you catch the things that God has for you and we also know this that it's so important that preparation time be given its proper place in the life of every believer for those of you who may be training for full time ministry or just want to serve better in your local church we believe that preparation time is so important for that and so it's not lost time but it's important time so we invite you to check out world Harvest Bible Training Center find out what God has for you and see a world Harvest Bible Training Center has a role in that God there are some things that can be taught and there are other things that have to be caught and this is definitely a place where you'll catch everything that you need to fulfill the plan of God for your life it's one thing to read it off a Bible it's one thing for somebody else to preach to me how great their life is because of what God is doing for them but it's another thing for me to finally experience that this is a time where these students are able to come aside for a more concentrated saturation of the word a real special season in their life that they're able to make the Word of God prayer the different things a real priority and what it's what it does is it accelerates the growth what we want to see is we want to see these students getting a hold of all that God has for them while they're here so they can go back to their local churches and be a greater supply to their pastor to the congregation and to the work of God world Harvest Bible Training Center is a full-time to your Bible school which includes an internship program for third-year students here we emphasize the teaching of the word along with the move of the Spirit it's a catching school where the spirit of faith can be caught through importations revelations and demonstrations world Harvest Bible Training Center is a family that's flowing with the word and the spirit how they do race the Lord and as I said on there it's important to recognize the pattern of how God works because he does have a plan to train the next generation and and yeah we believe Jesus is coming back soon but we don't stop the training amen hallelujah let's just lift up our hands and worship the Lord father we thank you tonight that you have a plan for each and every service so father we thank you for the greatness of your plan for this service tonight and we've come to respond to it we've come to receive from it and father we've come because we're hungry and we want to go further and we thank you that we have the help of the Spirit who will accompany us into the amber geodetic Embry Kyoto stock or yatta Bostic majd Oh Cory octopus oh yeah man Jacopo stucco's no chuckle Reata best my papa most maash the guy so father mastic I got the best let's just lift up our hands right now and let's lift up the pastures let's pray for the pastor's in this era father I ask you Father for the mercies that rescue to be extended to those who are headed the wrong direction on the wrong path emphasizing the wrong thing but on the inside of them they're crying out they're saying something's not right something's not right I thank you that by your mercy you make it clear to them and you extend the rescue and may they have ears to hear it may they have the sensitivity to recognize mustika odd about the quarry yet the big let's just pray in the spirit of moment master Cuyuna most Oh store nanana nanana ki Animoto toast already kikyo I'm shot apotheca hey I'm pajetta to takea the Bosto already Kiki mama Papa a chicken tikka mature mature Musto mata musta Mucha moco misty misty misty must Oh Bosh manja rikiya the BAS story kikiki atop a stick my my my my my my my my sticky my mama must now I want to read to you something Jesus remember he was talking about the four types of ground and to the people he just spoke in parables but when he got back with his disciples he spoke it plainly because they said why do you speak in parables that the people don't understand and Jesus said it this way he said in damn is fulfilled the profit that the prophecy of Isaiah which saith by hearing you shall hear and shall I understand and seeing you shall see and should not receive and then he said for this people's heart is waxed gross and their ears are dull of hearing that's a that's a frightening description and their eyes they have closed notice they're the ones that then it says lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and should understand with their heart and should be converted the amplified says in should turn and he says if they turn then he says I and this is the phrase that keeps coming to me for these pastors because rescue awaits them amen I I certainly didn't intend to go this direction but if this is on the spirits heart and on God's heart what the spirit so father we pray for their ears their eyes your ears to hear their eyes to see their hearts to be open and father we pray for them to recognize the terms that need as we've said we are changed from glory to glory a turn is that change and there if they'll turn there's glory there's glory awaiting them they've not disqualified you want them to turn back toward the right flow so we pray for that father master Coweta fish the Kiki Adubato ent many many to

Archer Archer master [Music] ah ah and at the turn they come in two more at the turning they come in two more they come in two more now think about this God told the prophet of God go tell King Hezekiah set his house in order he's gonna die how would you like to be I want the prophets office really at a time like this do you want the prophets office because all the King has to do is is give a signal he doesn't have to say anything just give a signal is yeah lights out slow and he goes into king hezekiah and he said set your house in order for thou shalt surely die now that sounds that sounds like absolute that sounds like it's gonna be this way in no other way but God wasn't sentencing him to death God was just saying the direction you're headed surely you're gonna die this direction and when the Prophet walked out the King did not do anything that the Prophet said under the unction of the spirit he did not start setting his house in order but he turned himself in the bed turned himself to the wall and judged himself and repented and before the Prophet could even get out of the courtyards the word of the Lord came and said tell him go back and tell him I've added I've had in 15 years to his life so when you turn there's addition waiting for you when you turn there's addition whatever whatever needs the addition so for these ministers and pastors there is addition so don't let the devil ever make you think that a turn isn't is it called for or than a turn won't do it a turn will do it just a turn just a turn amen hallelujah praise the Lord you know it matters to us it matters to us that it's not just us in this thing you know those we know but it's those that that belong to the family that we all go in together amen and I don't know who all those are but the Holy Ghost knows and we don't know what all our part of what all our praying extends to but the Holy Ghost knows Amen hallelujah well turn with me if you would to there we start at John 10:10 again and see see how far we go hallelujah John 10 and verse 10 and we don't want to go take the time to repeat everything that was said last night if you weren't here you just need to listen to that that service but the thing we want to see is in verse 10 the thief cometh not but for to steal to kill and destroy but I'm come that you might have life that they might have it more abundantly how positive how full that statement yes amen as we said it's the divine life eternal life the life of God that when the life of God is in flow it will produce abundance and too many times people are just okay with far less than abundance but he was very clear in stating it's not just God's plan that you had the life of God but that you have it more abundantly and as we said last night how do you know whether that life is flowing abundantly because it will produce abundance in every arena so we can measure whether or not that that eternal life is getting the proper emphasis and expression in our lives by whether or not abundance is there is resulting in every arena abundance of peace abundance of wisdom abundance of healthy abundance of supply abundance of vision amen but as we were stating last night we have to become skillful with the abundant flow and because this era is gonna call for it it's gonna require it you were born everyone was born with some kind of natural abilities or graces upon their life and you can have these abilities but that doesn't mean they're developed you have some spiritual abilities to prosper you had you are born again with the spiritual ability to prosper how do I know that because the it tells us in Deuteronomy that it is that God has given you the power now you you have to rethink that scripture and retrain yourself in the scripture because the King James says that God's given you the power to get wealth but the word is produce he's given you the power to produce wealth if you're producing wealth you're producing it for you and others if you're getting it it's only for you right but if you're producing it you're producing it and bringing others into that flow so you were just as you were born naturally into this earth with natural abilities there are divine abilities at the new birth yes one of those divine abilities is prosperity another one of those divine abilities is health amen another one of those divine abilities I mean it's all that God has made ours everything everything but every just as someone can be born with an ability for sports or singing or mechanics or an instrument they still have to practice it or they can't turn it into any kind of thing that brings them increase you make a living off of the talents and abilities you develop but if you don't develop them you can be poor with all the ability undeveloped in you that would make you rich so many Christians are living with the ability in them to be rich but because they're leaving that they're leaving that flow undeveloped you're living poor they're living for ya you know and so you have to develop it just as you would a natural talent you have to develop every spiritual grace and this is why Paul said grow in grace what's he saying develop the grace develop these great develop these grace says because there they won't flow automatically they had to be developed so when he says grow in grace that's what he's saying develop and abundance the flow of abundance you have to develop it you have to practice it and for the sake of not just your family but for the sake of the the church that God has joined you to in your pastors vision that he's joined you too amen and it would do you an injustice to make you think that these things that work automatically because they don't work automatically and you know just as the chemists may have every every ingredient in his laboratory to produce certain kinds of cures or certain kinds of effects until they're properly mixed it doesn't matter that he's got it all in his laboratory so you have in the laboratory of your spirit every ingredient for total success but they have to be mixed properly mix you understand that and no doubt there are scientists medical scientists that have had all the ingredients in their laboratories where they work that would have cured smallpox decades and maybe centuries before but they didn't know how to properly mix them but someone went in to the laboratory and found the mixture found the mixture and then came out and he didn't say no you go in and find it he came out and inoculated the people and it would have been criminal for him to have known the mixture and not share it with the people it's criminal for you to have in you the ingredients and not mix it and not share it with the vision of your pastor and not share it with the body of Christ and not share it in the earth it's criminal it's immoral to do that so it's not just about you having come comforting convenience through prosperity it's about it's a debt we owe it's a debt we owe we owe it to God to prosper we owe it to the earth to prosper we owe it to the body of Christ to prosper we owe it to our pastor to prosper we owe it to our church family to prosper because if you're not going to prosper you're going to be needy I have to I have two of the sweetest little dogs they're Shelties which are they look like a miniature version of a collie they're not a miniature collie but they look like a miniature colleague the O the first one I got his name is light I think y'all were with me when I got lad I got him what was it was it the day the day of EDS memorial service did I it's like new day dogs I'm not gonna have to convince someone I need a dog now so they were there at the house and we went and the place where I got him said we haven't had one of these in a year and a half and we just got in the night before I came in I said yeah God was giving me and he's a sweetest boy his name is Ladd and so then Ladd and I had a great time together Ladd would come and he will wrap himself around my shoulders and sit by the hour I'm around my shoulders he's a sweet sweet he said a little guy but when I would leave town he would lay in the corner depressed and my because they attached to one they attached to one and so the gal who stays at the home she said I need to take Ladd to I think I need to take him to the vet and I said why she said he is he he acts like he feels bad I said he's not feeling bad he's lonely so I said call the people and to see if they can get another one because I don't want another one but Ladd needs another lad needs another one so the people they're really nice for me to deal with so we called and said if you get another one call us because we're interested in so they called and I was on the road and so I sent Stephanie and grant my son down to look at this when they took pictures and sent it to me he was cute and I said now hold him see what you think about his temperament and all this so he's oh no he's great he's sweet well lad I told you last night Ladd puts himself to bed at nine o'clock remember he's and he sleep he's got to sleep till 7:00 he has a ten hour sleep night he's a good boy good boy and so I I had them to go ahead and the second one that I got his name is chap and so I came home off the road and they went ahead and got him and they brought him home and I said you know I'll get in in the middle of the night just put him in the kennel and when I come in you know I'll see him when I come in and so lad was asleep in his kennel I came in he just sounded sleep and all fours up in the air because when he sound asleep he's on his back with all fours straight up and I walked in at 3 o'clock in the morning and lad was in his kennel all fours and I looked in at the second kennel to see the new one he's going and I thought oh shoot I knew we got a heist wrong one right here and I was right he's he's a good boy he's sweet boy but he's all about a party he's all about the party he needs very little sleep he'll go to bed two o'clock in the morning he'll wake up it'd wake you up at about 5:30 or 6:00 just jumping on the side of the bed every morning warning up but when I'm at home they he is so jealous of Ladd for me because they attached to one and so if I pet lad he doesn't come and want me to pet him he he knocks Ladd out of the way it's like no you're leaving you're leaving that's what he doesn't want to share so right before I was I was getting packed for this trip and Stephanie oh say oh look chapter loves you so much because I'll be sitting there and he has his chin I mean I'm just sitting in a chair and he's got his chin laying on my leg he's standing on the floor but with his chin just on my leg he's got to be touching touching he's got to be touching and he's always got his face there she said he loves Justin no he's me he's needy he's needy don't confuse love with needed because this works me I don't feel loved I feel drained I go to walk and I can't walk he's all around my feet it's just like this I said that's meaning so when he does that I make him stand back stop this is not all about you stand back this is not all about you lad come here and I'll pet him in front of chap just to let him know you're not the only thing sucking air in the house because when you're needy it's all about you it's all about your need it's all about but if you're gonna flow in abundance you have to drop that mentality as pastor Ike said this morning you're always gonna have needs but if they don't get in you you don't become needy needs are out here leave them out here don't let them in you don't let them in the way you process and the way you think and the way you conduct your business it's not based on need you know when I in 2014 that was the year I traveled the most ed went home in 2013 in October 2013 and I knew that I was to travel to as many churches as I could the following year to to keep the doors open it's important that you have entrances into people's lives that God gives you and if if they if if there's a change in a transition like that and you step back they will assume that they need to have another another entrance made for someone else and you can lose a voice or an influence that God intends for you to have and so for that next year I traveled heavily well in 2015 God said I don't want you traveling as much I don't want you traveling very much and I tell you what I was so used to that the traveling ministry supported the traveling ministry you know the business side of it the front end it was at different ministries now to frame ministries and I tell you what it because I had said the Monday after IDI went home to be with the Lord I went into the financial office and I told our gal I said I covenant with you that I and I am with God that I will not book a meeting for for money I will book a meeting because God tells me to go and he has something for those people through me that's the only reason I'm going I refused to check the the the bills coming due to set my calendar by I'm not gonna do it and I don't I don't even look at the bills I don't look I because I the gal that's there she's been with us like 25 years she's not a newbie she's not a novice she's a faith gal in her life is tied in with this ministry and so I you know you do have to keep an eye but the longer someone is there and faithful and trusted you can you can relinquish some things wisely and so I will tell you in 2015 there the devil would push what are you gonna do what are you gonna do what are you gonna do friend comfort of frame ministries what are you gonna do what are you gonna do and I said you know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna do what God said that's what I'm gonna do and I I would travel maybe anywhere from seven to ten days out of the month when I was traveling three weeks out of the month the previous year before so there was a big change in the schedule and until you took more faith to stay home than it did the book it and I God showed me he wanted he wanted to show me that the supply was with my obedience and not with the meters the supply is with the obedience and you need to know that your supplies with your obedience it's not with the number of hours you can work it's not with the number of deals you can make it's not with the number of customers you can have and I'm not saying you can't believe or shouldn't believe for customers but don't you think that your supply and your provider is the customers your supplies connected to your obedience if you be willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land that's part of practicing abundance you understand that you there God may put you on a reduced schedule he reduced my schedule to show me his provision you understand that and there may be some reductions that he leads you to to show you his provision and people start worrying in those reductions and then they open the door to the devil instead of prospering in those times so we have to add something - this abundance we have to add skill we have to practice some things and your pastor skill is not your skill you can be on a on a sports team and you can have a kid that I mean they wake up before everybody else and they practice you know if they're a basketball player they practice all their moves they practice their shooting they practice all this stuff they practice it from the three-point line you know they practice it from the side they practice from everywhere but you just because you're on his team doesn't mean you make his shots just because you're in this congregation doesn't mean you believe what he's preaching you gotta practice it you got to practice it and yes it will help you to be under the umbrella of the anointing on this ministry that just makes it easier for you but that doesn't do the doing for you it makes it easier for you to do the doing it makes it easier for you to know what you should be doing but it is no substitute for you doing and practicing so let's go over real quickly the Hebrews chapter four praise the Lord hebrews chapter 4 because listen you're not earning abundance you're not earning it it's already a divine ability in you it is a divine ability to prosper in you even if you lose your home there's still the divine ability in you to cross go if you lost your card still a divine ability in you to prosper why because the greater ones in you the genius of the holy ghost is in you he's in you but you do have to do your part and your part is not earning it your part is developing growing in grace growing in this grace the prosperity growing in this grace of abundance amen remember and Paul called it see to it that you abound in this grace also when he was talking about giving anyway he was talking about a prosperity thing here he said see to it that you abound in this grace so this this flow of abundance is a grace that you have to practice not earn the practice develop and so we need to look what do we need to develop what do we have to add to it of this divine ability to prosper to see this divine ability to prosper there's also the divine ability to live in health there's a divine ability to have the wisdom of God they're all the joy of God it's a divine ability but you have to practice it the peace of God it's a divine ability that's in you it's a fruit of this that it's a fruit that God has put in your spirit by the Holy Spirit but you said practice it amen I mean let me let me tell you something when I was growing up my mother there were four kids of course in our family I was the youngest of four and my mother always had an appreciation for music now I have a brother and a sister that were good in sports but my other brother and I were bitter in music things and so mother really hadn't appreciated she would she would help the Rif because some perhaps needed help and she was available she still that she still the one in the family that watches all the sports on TV she's 84 she's still the sports fan every sport she likes football she likes basketball she likes baseball she's up on it she is up on it but she really had an appreciation for music too and so she decided my oldest brother has a lot of ability in music but she decided that she needed a piano player in the family and since I was the fourth and the last one I was the only option left so there was a woman that was known in our city for producing students that they became performers you know they would go through school they didn't just have they didn't just play piano as a sideline they made their living off of it they were they became performers or they became you know classical pianists and stuff and so this woman was quite good and very good and so what she would do is mother took me to her and she I had taken piano for a short time from another woman and mother didn't like that I what mother saw that I wasn't progressing that much with her so mother took me to this woman and mother said I would like to see if you would take her on as a student and so she sent me in her house here I was about twelve years old and she auditioned me she said because I don't just take anybody they have to have ability where I'm wasting my time so she did certain things to check my ability level and she knew how to check my ability level the Holy Ghost will check your ability level your pastor has a right to check your ability level now when this teacher said yes she's got ability I'll take her and I flourished under her and then by the time I was in tenth grade she passed me on to a professor at the University and so I was at university level before I was even able to go to the University because she recognized it and she she worked and I tell you what I had a stomach ache every Saturday in my life because I was getting ready to go to her for piano lesson and she didn't put up with nonsense and she didn't put up with no practice she said don't you ever show up at my house not having learned your stuff don't you ever well and that I didn't always learn my stuff and so here I got a stomachache you know my nerves are shot you know pick up and this woman as you're practicing as you're playing for her she would have her conductors baton and she would hit you on the head said don't you play that way again don't you use that finger again on that note why she was interested in my development and these people who get standoffish or drawback if somebody gets in their face you won't make it you make it you will make it because your pastor sees the ability there's a divine ability in you because you belong to God and it's his job to put pressure the right kind of pressure on that that woman she put a demand on me because you can't leave a twelve-year-old kid to their own level of discipline cuz they got none so what she did she took her discipline and demanded that I meet her level of discipline so when your pastor makes it plain and frank it's because he has developed some things and he's taking his level of skill and discipline and expecting you to practice at that level and you need to be thankful that someone puts an expectation on you and they do you a disservice if they don't expect you to prosper for your pastors say I expect you to prosper now next year I don't want to see these same kinds of problems in your finances that you've had this year I expect a difference amen and he's right to do that yeah why because he knows what's in you well when she this teacher said to me and said to my mother she's got ability I'll take her when she said that it did something for me to know I've got an ability because you only live with you you think everybody's got what you've got but you see someone who knows the difference between those who have that ability and those who don't and they point at you they say you've got it it does something to you well I want you to know God has pointed at you and said you've got it you've got in you the ability I've given you the anointing to produce well that you may establish his covenant on the earth yeah yes pointed you out and said you got it you've got you've got it you got it you got it but once you find out you've got it now the work begins now the work begins because I was complimented when she took me but I wasn't complimented anymore after that I was put upon and had expectation put upon me and a demand in a push hood on me thankfully and it became really what paid for my schooling and it's what you know got me as far as I did with you know runner-up to Miss America and all that that was due to that woman taking her discipline and putting an expectation on me I didn't appreciate her then but I appreciated it later you might not appreciate some things that you hear in church but if you'll just stick with it you'll appreciate it later you'll appreciate it after you grown some but after you've developed some because no teenager appreciates their parent I mean generally yeah you may have a specific person that you know is an old soul or something that but when I got to be in my mid-20s I began to see my mother in a whole different light why not because she changed but because I developed you know when I began to develop I wished I would have done more for dad Hagen because you look back and you say all he did Missy I was too undeveloped to really appreciate all he was doing to rescue and set us on core I was but now but once you develop at least apply that same appreciation in the right direction and so when your pastor says some things that might be hard for you to hear you better appreciate it because he's taking his level of skill and expertise and discipline of the things in him and he is putting if he you know what have you ever seen if someone is in the in the dance field and they had some little gal that you know her teachers working on her kicking ability and her limb you know getting your limber and and the right way in the height the kick the teacher may start here and say kicked my hand but then you got a kick up here and then it's like you kick up here because that level that they put out there is that expectation and we expect you to reach it even when you think you can't I expect you to reach this your pastor every sermon is doing this raising the bar raising the bar why so that you can have and bring to this revival in this era and to this vision all that God has endowed in you amen prosperity is if I could say this a divine endowment and it's criminal to leave it undeveloped it's criminal it's wrong for you to rob from your family simply because you won't discipline yourself spiritually your children should have had more your church should have had more you should have had more can't we all say that we all and it's not to beat ourselves up with but it's to say you know what I'm gonna put an expectation on myself whenever we would go out in public before as we were growing up and mother would had the four kids before we even got out of the car to go into someone's home or to go into a building mother turn around she say I'm going to tell you what you're gonna do in this house you're gonna go in there you're gonna sit down here I'm gonna touch anything you know I'm gonna spill anything you're not gonna sit there and ask for this and ask for that you're not gonna you're not gonna wander out the room she would tell us what she expected then when we walked in we knew exactly what to do that's only fair if you don't do that as a parent you're not fair if you if you whip them and you never told them what the expectation was and if you put no expectation on your children you get none it is your your pastors job to put an expectation and keep raising it and keep raising it and you say my gosh they they they talked about you know the project last month and now we're on another project yeah that's called abounding in the work of the Lord putting an expectation and you you need to be grateful that someone you you know what you don't want to do is go to a church where they say we put a bucket in the back if you can give that's fine if you can't that's fine you're gonna stay broke in that place because there's no expectation there's no reason to develop your divine prosperity ability in that city you do your people a favor amen by receiving offerings not and I'm not talking about abusing because the this company doesn't do that but I mean people will accuse you of that that's just because they're underdeveloped people that are undeveloped will always accused those of being fully developed of being unkind praise Lord so we're not earning it but we do have to develop so hebrews chapter 4 one we have to see what is something that has to be done if we're going to develop this divine ability to prosper that's in us verse two says for unto us was the gospel preached as well as unto them and the then that he's talking about is the Hebrews that God delivered out of Egypt so they had the gospel preached to them and he says but the word preached did not profit them isn't that a sad statement this word that is god-breathed did not even bring any increase to them why is that not being mixed with faith in them that heard it to develop this divine ability to prosper that's on the inside of you it must be mixed with faith it must be mixed with faith it must be and if you ever decide that you're not going to mix it with faith then you're going to be undeveloped and that's why faith is the most important message in the Bible because if your faith is not growing your spiritual life is not developing you understand me if you're praying you can pray in tongues four hours a day you can serve in your local church but if your faith is not growing your spiritual life is not developing because you cannot without faith being mixed faith faith is the activator of the divine abilities in you understand that faith when it's mixed though that divine ability to prosper begins to produce it begins to develop it begins to make movement it begins to grow and so it is your job to mix faith where is the faith your heart it comes from the word into your spirit so the faith of God is resident in your spirit the ability to prosper is in your spirit it's not in your it's not in your natural man it's in your spirit this is all in your spirit but Paul said stir up there's the faith there's the ability prosper they have to be stirred they have to be mixed mixed mixed the word preached did not profit them because it was not mixed well you know I understand that I'm mixed yeah but have you ever Oh pastor Debbie and we pastor Debbie gave me something when we were in Russia because it's something I have at home and I use with well a vitamin powder you know and at home when I use have used it I throw it in like a nutribullet thing with fruit and ice because I got to disguise it I got I got him I'm gonna mix it with something and so but she gave me something I needed to take some and I didn't have anything but what was it orange juice yeah and so it it in this form I could not get all the lumps out and I am pastor Ruby I tried to mix it for a while and then I had to finish eating before we had to go and I said pastor Ruby can you work and get these so she's over there pushing of spoon against the side to get these lumps out because although they're in the same container it's not mixing right it's not fully mixing you can be in the right Church right message and it not be thoroughly mix not just they can't just be in the same container I mean we had to work and then you can feel lumps dry lumps going down and you're just ignore it anything just put it out let's put it down this put it down and you try to just open the throat you know you don't want to feel you don't want it to get stopped and as you swallow don't swallow just open just send it on that because when it's not mixed it's not flowing right it doesn't you don't take it in the same way when it's not mixed you have to third you can't just do a stir like that you have to really work it and when it says mix it means thoroughly faith has to be thoroughly mixed every and you know have you ever picked up a salad dressing that has some oil and some and some herbs and stuff in it what happens they separate don't they it separates and you shake it come back five minutes that's what that's what happens with faith it has to be continually daily you can't just shake it the first first day of the week and think that it's going to serve up right every day every day you got to shake it every day you got to mix that but every day because if you don't think separate and all sudden face separated from your need and faith separated from this because it has to stay stir stir it you are a lifetime stirrer you're a lifetime stirrer when Paul said to Timothy stir up the gift he didn't just mean once he met as long as the gift is in you it has stay sturdy as long as that gift is in there and you know how long it's in there for the rest of your life amen and it's your job to stir you don't have to be you don't have to be the most intelligent just be the best sir that's right this is not an IQ test this is not an education test this is a responding to what's in you test this is a stirring thing stirred just start up is start up and start up disturb stir stir stir stir rejoicing is a stir stick amen praising is a stir stick confession is a stirrer step but notice all of those things involve the tongue your tongue is the mixer ladies some of you may have seen those of you who are real good cooks you probably have a countertop mixer your you're a good cook you are a good cook now I used to have one that said on the counter because I want people think I'm a good cook but the truth of the matter is a little Oh egg beater in the drawer is all I need right and the people who are good at it they have the best equipment they had the most powerful mixers right that and and their mixer look like it's been used mine looks like it is came fresh off the shelf you know 20 years later not a scratch on it those who use it I mean they you can tell when you walk into a real cooks kitchen right I mean there's even numbers that might be on the dial setting they're gone all of my numbers are completely visible and my it was so funny because my dad came in several years ago to her I was down at home visiting and I don't know what daddy was doing but he pulled out the blender daddy didn't know whatever his way around the kitchen you know he pulled out the blender and his putting stuff in there and he turned it on but we'd only put the lid on he did everything right except it wasn't set in the cradle right so he turned it on and it flung the whole picture around in a circle then the lid came off and just kept flinging everything in there around the whole kitchen well he started but it had the wrong effect and mother was so aggravated and I said mother all cleaning I'll clean it up clean it and I was laughing daddy was laughing she wasn't laughing I said I'll clean it I'll clean it I'll clean it I don't I don't mind to see I don't cook but I can show clean man I can clean that's my gift I've been cleaning and so I said I said I'll clean it now mother she is so thoroughly acquainted with it just without mindlessly mindlessly she knows is that fitting in the cradle that she knows exactly the cyst but when you're not acquainted with it you're not sure your tongue is the mixer get thoroughly acquainted with that equipment no run all the numbers off of it you know what I'm talking about run the new off of it this shouldn't be new to you it should be fresh but not new amen because your tongue is the mixer and even though rejoicing mixes your faith in with the divine ability in you to prosper your faith is what has to be mixed in rejoicing is one way to mix as we said praise is another way to mix confession is another way to mix but they all involve the tongue they all involve the tongue the better you are at using your tongue to mix the better the results and the more your prosperity will develop amen hallelujah well I still have not gotten to the sermon [Laughter] well listen I may be the Holy Ghost doing this so if I don't get to that sermon this week I have to come back I have to I am setting myself up hallelujah hallelujah so we better stop there tonight we better stop there because if I go on we're gonna go into another hour you know but I tell you what listen know this the divine ability to prosper is in you then you you don't have to pray for it you don't have to ask God to give it to you just find out what's in a man and then develop it because it's needed the earth needs your prosperity the earth needs your prosperity not only does your church need it your pastor needs it your family needs it the earth needs your prosperity listen we have enough examples in the body of Christ of not enough we need some examples more and more God wants everyone of us to be an example of abundance he wants every one of us to be that example amen how about you say I'll be that I'll be that I'll be that then we're gonna have to change some things we're gonna change some things but I've changed some things the way we talk maybe the way we think the way we approach giving the way we approach receiving you know thinking oh I shouldn't spend that much money on that why not somebody is amen we have to break these things that trip us up and then to think the way we process about money money is nothing but a tool to help my life get better and to help me fund what God is doing that's all it's sports all it's only a tool it's only a tool it's only a tool it's not my master it's not it's not what I'm serving it's not what I'm living for [Music] it's only a toilet I'm gonna get good at my tool you had you found a carpenter that's good with his tools and he can produce some wonderful stuff amen God wants us to produce amen hallelujah and it will not offend God in fact I would think that it's displeasing to him to not develop some things I would think that he would have to be displeased now think about this when God's people he delivered him out of Egypt you understand they were a nation of slaves you know what happens to a nation of slaves who's been in slavery for 400 years they're a slave up here your slave up here do you know they walked out of that nation of Egypt no one sick one not one feeble money among them now think about it these are not just the average work man walking out these are slave bodies a slave body is treated differently than the business owners body right the slaves body is put to hard repeated labor doesn't matter if his muscles having problems get up doesn't matter if you don't feel good today you're working right a slave had no say-so over his body these were slave bodies that walked out with not one people one among them they had done heavy labor work they had done the hardest labor of the land for their whole lives and they walk out every one of them straight no joints hurting no no herniated disks from lifting you understand so when it says there was not one feeble one among them you would have had 80 90 year old people who had done nothing but slave level labor hard labor and they walked out straight now that's what belongs to you that's what's in you no matter how hard you've labored in this life under sin before you were born again God expects you straight not feet no feeble one they did not they walked out with not only straight whole bodies they walked out with the wealth of Egypt in their pockets the wealth of Egypt four hundred years of back pay right paid all in a day in a day in one day they got the pay of ancestors let me tell you something some of you who have a heritage of great grandfather's and grandparents and grandparents and parents that did not have the revelation of prosperity but they loved God and they sowed I bet they didn't all reads reseed their harvests because they didn't know how to receive it with their faith how about back pay the law what they did not receive go after with your faith they sowed it those of you who have a lineage and those who sowed but maybe never received because of the lack of teaching now that you've got teach and go collect their back pay that's what they did that day they walked out with 400 years worth of pay yeah and then God sent him to a place where they couldn't spend it why because you just because you got it you're not going to trust it so he sent him to a place where their money would not deliver them yeah how smart of him but the problem was they never gave up the slave thinking would to God we died in Egypt would to God we were back by our pots of meat in Egypt what was that they wanted to go back with somebody else thinking of them taking care of them so that they wouldn't have to bring their faith there are a lot of people who would rather somebody else take care of them rather than them have to use their face but you don't want to do that that's slave mentality that's slave mentality listen you need to be a business owner mentality not everyone even given their own businesses but you have to understand you can your your your at the helm of this thing now you're at the helm of your prosperity you're at the helm of it you better act like you are and if all of this belong to someone not born again they had to covenant with God but they weren't born again understand they were not blood washed they were not there their sins were not blotted out they were just covered over they did not have the Holy Ghost in them they did not have the revelation of the New Covenant they have and you got all this and we haven't even equaled what they had many of us have not seriously we should be walking straight pockets full amen but what's it waiting on it's waiting on you to mix faith waiting on you to mix a well when we get to another sermon we'll we'll go further with this with this mixing thing because on the inside of you is the divine ability to be rich it's in there it's in there every one every Christian every Christian in a denominational Church or nondenominational every Christian who died prematurely of sickness and disease died with healing in them every per every Christian who filed bankruptcy filed bankruptcy with prosperity in them it's in there it is a divine ability develop it develop it amen how they loo you stand with me to your feet tonight Father we thank you these things thrill us your word thrills us because as we find what's in us as you said as Paul stated and he said there's a treasure in you the treasure in you and so father we're diving into that treasure chest and we're bringing up the Rubies of a prosperity and the diamonds of healing and all of these things that bless our lives in bless humanity and bless the earth and we're not going to be criminal in our handling of these but we're going to become skillful so that we can spread these things to the lives of others and and bless them and we thank you for the wealth that you've made ours we say this after me say the divine ability to be rich is in me right now the divine ability to prosper it's in me right now the divine ability to live healed and whole it's in me right now so I'm gonna grow in those graces and I'm gonna develop them and I'm gonna be a blessing with to my pastor to my local church to my family to my city to my state to my nation into the world in some capacity I can reach beyond me to be a blessing amen hallelujah hallelujah Pastor Joe [Music] Laurie glory glory pastor remind me of those numbers Jesus said to dr.
