Eyes Of Your Understanding - John Kilpatrick

i was just thinking a while ago he's talking about they've been here 44 years and i heard him say he just left bible school to come here to pastor and i remember my first church i was right out of bible school i was 20 years old and my district i was playing the piano back in those days with a quartet and my superintendent heard me play the piano that morning i was walking across the stage i had a job with the water works of columbus georgia i was a lab technician and um after i got through playing the piano that morning with a quartet i walked across the stage and the district superintendent grabbed me by the arm and he said john he said man listen when are you going to get in the ministry and i gave him that pad answer you know well when god opens the door and he said oh great he said there's a door open i'm going to tell him you're coming next sunday and it was a church in vidalia georgia i'm a city boy and he said you're going to love it and uh he said they run about 40 people and he said it's in a place called tombs county georgia bloody tombs county georgia and so we went my wife had heard me preach one time before i started pastoring and we preached in a place called ashburn georgia right outside of where jimmy carter was raised in plains georgia and my wife my new wife had never heard me preach before and it was horrific it was a country church that had all the windows raised and i got up that morning and tried to preach and i tell you friend it was it was terrible and while i was preaching i was really trying to give it my best and while i was preaching i swallowed a fly and i went over to the window and i said and i did that three times trying to get it up but he never came back i could never get him back up so i came back behind the mount the pulpit tried to finish preaching it was so bad we got in the car and my wife said honey are you sure you're called to preach [Applause] so we took my first church and i remember took that church in valdez georgia and uh i it was my birthday we took the church in june and so in july a lady invited us over for my birthday dinner it happened to be on a sunday she invited us over and me and brenda went over there for my birthday we had a nine-month-old son and so this lady had us over her name was sister pittman she was a pistol ball she was somebody that didn't care for me much at all and so that morning while we were that afternoon while we were eating lunch it was out in the country and while we were sitting down and eating i heard something and in just a minute i saw her get up from the table and she had a little curtain underneath her kitchen sink and she pulled that curtain back there was a sitting hen right there in her house and i leaned over to brenda and i said brenda this is my 21st birthday today we have made it big time and that was the beginning of the ministry for john and brenda kilpatrick at sister pittman's house you need to love your pastor and you need to love your pastor's wife because in today's world to have a pastor like them is almost unheard of to have somebody that you can trust to have somebody that you can trust and to have somebody that you can respect and that you can be secure under their ministry that is a very hard thing to find anymore before i minister today i want to just take just a moment and i want to tell you about something that i brought with me i don't do this to survive financially by any means but after we're gone hopefully we can minister to you back in 2019 before covet or anything happened it was in december of 2019 i went to the restroom in the middle of the night i came back laid down and i was laying on my right side and i flipped over the bed and i flipped over on my left side and when i did i flipped over into another world i didn't see a vision i never heard a voice i never saw the lord never heard an angel or anything but i just flipped over into another world it was wonderful and i i don't like to use the word telepath like telepathy but it was i never heard the lord speak audibly but i i heard him in my spirit just as loud as if i hear myself talking right now and the lord said to me he said perilous times are coming extremely perilous times are coming and they're right at the door and he said tell the people to be prepared because he said things are going to change and they're going to change fast he said but tell the people not to worry and not to be afraid because i'm sending my angels to help them and so off of that i went in and told the church the following sunday and just in a matter of weeks covet had broke out and affected the world and i preached this series on the angels are coming really think you would get a lot out of it it's an eye-opener i think because when i got into it and began to preach it it was like man i was learning right along with everybody else it's called the angels are coming celestial intervention for perilous times and so i'd like to say more about it but i don't want to take up my message time this is a message i just got through preaching recently it's on fasting and it's a different angle from fasting that maybe you've ever heard the title of it is when prayer alone will not work when prayer alone will not work and i think it's about five or six parts if i'm not mistaken there's six parts when prayer alone will not work and uh when i dealt with fasting i dealt with it from an angle that when people heard it they said oh my goodness that helped me so much so i think if you pick up a copy of it and maybe even pass it on after you listen to somebody else it'd be a blessing to them this is what i'm preaching this morning i'm preaching this morning on the eyes of your understanding the eyes of your understanding and uh i won't be able by any means to get through with this i'm just going to preach on it one time i don't think i've ever enjoyed preaching another series as much as this one and as i said i was learning as i preached it and god gave it to me and i really believe that you'll get a lot out of it and probably would want to pass it on to somebody when you get through listening to it but right now i want to go to the message of today and i want to deal with the subject of the eyes of your understanding and i'm going to be conscious of the time of course but i just want to say that i always enjoy coming to evangel i love brother cecil sister pauline i hear sister pauline's about to have a birthday in a couple of weeks you know what it looks like to me you're just about ready to go on social security that's what it looks like to me and um brother sister wiggins god bless you guys i love you all so much i told i texted him the other day and i said i can't wait to come to jacksonville this weekend to check on the wigan side of the kilpatrick family because i love the wiggins they're like my own family brother wiggins but the cecil wiggins reminded me so much of my pastor and brother gary you're looking better than i've ever seen you look and that's an honest truth you really are you really are he walked in this morning back in the green room and i thought okay he's looking better and i'm looking worse [Laughter] i want to speak to you today on on the subject of the eyes of your understanding and i want to deal today with the subject of the difference between levels and dimensions the difference between levels and dimensions if you will stand with me please for the reading of the word and i'll let you be seated again in just a moment we're going to go to ephesians 1 verses 16 through 19. and as i deal with this today i want everybody to understand let me say this right up front so you won't leave out of here and misquote me or misunderstand me whenever i'm talking about dimensions i'm not talking about new age okay say that out loud with me he's not talking about new age i'm not talking about anything extra biblical i'm talking about i'm just trying to give you a word to help you to understand where i'm trying to lead us today i'm going to deal with the difference between levels and dimensions ephesians the apostle paul was writing to the church at ephesus classes and he said i cease not to give thanks for you making mention of you in my prayers that the god of our lord jesus christ the father thank you very much that the father of glory may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him and then verse 18 he says this the eyes of your understanding being enlightened that you may know what is the hope of his calling and what is the riches of his glory of his inheritance in the saints and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us were to believe now it's interesting something that i found in regard to solomon i want you to look at this with me and solomon are in first kings chapter three verses five through nine in gibeon the lord appeared unto solomon in a dream by night and said ask what i shall give you and solomon said thou has shown unto thy servant david my father great mercy according as he walked before thee in truth and in righteousness and an uprightness of heart with you and you have kept him for him this great kindness that you have given him a son to sit on his throne as it is this day and now solomon said oh lord my god thou hast made thy servant king instead of david my father and he said i'm a little child i know not how to go out and i don't know how to come in what he was saying is i'm totally unequipped for this job i'm totally unprepared to be the king of israel i don't know what i'm doing and he said thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou has chosen a great people that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude and here's what solomon said he didn't ask for wisdom now look at this everybody he didn't ask for wisdom and he did not ask for money look what he asked for give thy servant an understanding heart give thy servant an understanding heart you may be seated if you can lock in with me here just for a little while this morning i'd like to say some things that i hope will be provocative for you all of us to think about what is the eyes of your understanding what is that it's when your sight is opened not your natural physical sight but it's your inner sight your inner man's sight now look this way listen to what i'm going to tell you when god begins to unlock your understanding and he begins to open your inner eyes on the inside of you what you come to understand will usually contradict what you may have always believed are presently believing what is understanding understanding is the truth that you're standing under look this way please understanding is the truth that you're standing under everybody operates under a measure of truth on a pew in any church this morning in america there can be 15 people on a pew every one of those people in those pews are all at different levels of truth they all know the truth and they all love the lord and they're born again on their way to heaven but every one of those people are usually at different levels of truth whatever level of truth they are is the level of freedom and the level of liberty and victory that they enjoy so understanding is usually the truth that you're standing under paul really believed that he was doing god's surface by persecuting the church he was persecuting the jews for believing on jesus and jesus appeared to paul and he basically knocked him to the ground the lord caused his natural eyes to be blinded so that he may open his spiritual eyes of understanding sometimes before god can get us to understand things he has to block other means of vision that we've always had and i'm not talking about he's going to make you go blind but he's going to work on the different levels of understanding that we've had by the things that we've come to know and see and we're going to have to see them in a different way and the lord caused his eyes of understanding to open and he immediately called jesus lord as soon as his eyes were opened the lord knocked him to the ground and immediately this man had been persecuting all these christians for believing on jesus these jewish christians but now immediately he hadn't even been on the ground three seconds and he immediately got his eyes opened his other eyes were darkened he got his eyes opened and he immediately called jesus lord he turned immediately after the lord opened the eyes of his understanding and became the great apostle paul god changed him from saul to paul so i want you to listen to something the only way that we can understand the things of god is to allow him allow the holy spirit to open up our eyes of understanding about not just scripture but a lot of things a lot of things not just scripture if you tell your story sometime about what happened to you when you were young if you tell your story sometime about what happened to you in such and such a place or such-and-such a church or such-and-such a family and you tell that story in front of somebody else that was there with you when that story happened you might be surprised that they had a different version of your story and they have an insight into a truth that you have never really seen through the years and when you hear it it changes your understanding of things could it be that the amount of truth that you're standing under is incomplete could it be that the story you have believed about something that has happened to you might have been a little bit different and you have locked in on the facts as you knew them then but those are not really the facts could it be that the story you have believed has influenced you for a long time and has held you in its bonds could it believe that something has colored your life could it be that something has colored the way you see a person or the way you see god or the way you see an experience that happened to you that really messed you up tripped you up and could it be that the story that you have believed is not a lie but it may be an incomplete story could it be that you have a blind spot that has kept you messed up for many years because the eyes of your understanding needs to be opened and that blind spot needs to be dealt with because that blind spot is blocking the truth from freeing you up and you allow the story that you've told yourself all these years to hold you in its sway i can't do this you say because of what happened to me i can't do this because of what they did or what they said or what i experienced and it's a blind spot and you've been blinded and the devil has blinded you even about a previous marriage about a previous bad situation in a relationship or whatever that may be and to give you a good example let me take one from the scriptures there was a man at the pool of bethesda and he was there for 38 years and jesus walked up to this man and they had brought this man there he had come every year for 38 years and when the angel would stir the waters according to what they said the legend was when the angel stirs the waters the first one in is healed and so jesus came to the pool of bethesda and he come up to this guy and he said to him sir will you be made whole and he said well yes i i would love to be made whole but you see every year for the last 38 years when i've got ready to step in the water somebody has gotten ahead of me and i've missed it for 38 years nobody's been there to help me that was his story could i tell you something if i had been going there 38 years and i was blind and the angel stirred the water i'm gonna be right at the edge of the water and if nobody helps put me in i'm gonna roll in the water i'm gonna roll over in the pool of salon and i'm gonna say help i'm drowning and somebody's gonna come and get me out but i'm gonna get my healing amen i'm gonna get my healing but see his story hear me his story held him away from his miracle you remember the woman with the issue of blood the doctors told her it's hopeless she had spent all that she had she's going to die the religious crowd said you're unclean stay away from folks don't let don't get near people don't let them touch you no medication is going to help you no surgery she was operating under a truth and the truth that she was her understanding was the truth that she was standing under was you're not going to get any better this is not going to change you're destined for this but nothing happened to this woman that had the issue of blood until she changed her story she said to herself when she heard jesus see her her story was i can't get better no medication no surgery i i'm just i'm just destined but then she heard of jesus and all of a sudden she changed her story you see let me say this when you change your story you get a new understanding you get a new understanding that you start operating under and so she heard jesus and she said if i could you know if i i believe if i could just touch that man i believe i'd be whole so she reached out when she was enlightened she reached out she got her eyes of understanding open when she heard about him her eyes opened up and she said you know i'm going to change my story you know i believe if i could just touch him i believe i would be made whole and she changed her story you see as long as you repeat when you repeat a new story you delete your old could i say that again when you repeat your old story when you repeat a new story rather you delete your old story a new story replaces your old story you can't tell both stories at the same time you know what i think i think it's time for the church to stop repeating our old story and delete it and get a brand new story listen to me we are now living in a time and this is where we are coveted helped bring this season in we are now living in a time that is the time of the end of the age and the lord said in the time of the end that everything will open up now listen to me clear carefully there will be no mysteries in heaven so in other words all mysteries must be revealed before jesus comes even the bible said about the book of daniel it says shut up the book until the time of the end in the time of the end people will begin to understand the book but it's not time to understand the book back then but now we have entered into a time it's time to understand the book now listen to this there's other mysteries that god is about to reveal and is revealing in these last days it wasn't time for him before but before we get to heaven all mysteries have got to be revealed i want to know what god has to reveal i want to know i want to know what i've never known i want to know what he's thinking i want to know what has been kept from me because what god is about to reveal and is in the process of revealing is going to put the church over in a massive way in the last days in other words we're going to have to know more than we've ever known before to live victory like we've never had the victory before yesterday's victory is not going to suffice for today's picture now people are receiving things in dreams they're receiving things and visions that the lord is giving truly truly dreams and true visions not hot dog dreams and some kind of a make-believe vision now all of a sudden god's beginning to give his people different parts of the world including here in america he's beginning to give us understanding and it's like oh my god how come i never saw that before so when you repeat your new story it replaces and deletes the old story you cannot delete your old story until you begin to repeat your news story so the old story said for this woman i'm hopeless i'm dying i'm bleeding i can't touch anybody but her new story said oh but i believe if i could just touch him i believe everything would be just fine that was eyes of understanding being open now when jesus came to earth he gave understanding and he began to open people's eyes so that they could understand what they couldn't understand previously now listen to me carefully on this i want to make sure i say this real clear so that you can get this and grab it when jesus came to the earth he came from another world now he was god's son he was the immaculate conception he was god's son is god's son he died on calvary he became our savior he became our resurrected lord but whenever he came he came to bring information and understanding that the old testament never gave about the other world the prophets prophesied they talked about things that was going on in israel but when jesus came he was a brand new type of a prophet and he had great information he brought great understanding all of a sudden we're learning about demons all of a sudden we're learning about divine healing all of a sudden we're learning about all kinds of things and so when jesus came he's opening the eyes of understanding so when jesus came he came like an elijah to demonstrate to an elisha watch me listen to me i want to model something for you that when i'm gone you can do what i have done and so he said just watch me and listen to me and so when jesus came he came to open doors and to open doors of our understanding and open up our new eyes of understanding so that we could enter into a realm that mankind had never entered into before that's what jesus did so what do i mean by that whenever i say there's a difference between levels and dimensions i hear people say all the time oh my god we're going to enter into another level well could i be honest with you and tell you i'm not interested at all in entering into another level let me show you what i'm talking about look at communications in the beginning you had the telegraph that was the first mode of communication look what happened right after the telegraph it went to the telephone you remember the telephone you put that little thing down there up to your ear and you'd get in the mouthpiece there and you'd scream out hello can you hear me you know it went from telegraph to that kind of a telephone then it went to dial phones remember those then it went to push phones then it went to cell phone then it has gone to iphones you know how long that took a hundred years for it to go from the telegraph to the iphone that's communication it took a hundred years for it to go from the level of telegraph to the iphone took a hundred years on that level took a hundred years to develop that watch this computing you remember those computers there it was a whole room it was a whole room that's how computers started out right there it was a whole room of computers then it went to the personal computer see that and then it went to the laptop and then it went to the ipad how long did it take about 100 years look at this transportation you remember the old model t's and the old model a's remember that look what happened it went we used to have a car like that ours was a 50 chevrolet and it was blue i remember that i was so ashamed of that car my dad would take me to school and i'd always hunker down in the sea until it was time to get out and then it went to that kind of car and then it went to this kind of car and then it went to this kind of car you see to go from the model a the model t to something like this took close to 100 years transportation went from this level to another level it took about 100 years to do it now watch this you remember kitty hawk let's look and see what happened at kitty hall then you had the red baron then you had the seaplane then you had the big carriers double story carriers then you had the stealth fighters then you had the space shuttle and now today you've got this put out by virgin where it's an intergalactic plane that can take you up in outer space on an airplane where there's weightlessness and to get from there all the way back to kitty hawk about a hundred years here's what i'm trying to tell you watch this there's one more here's here's what i want to share with you from a level of computers a level of communication a level of travel by car a level of air flight it started off here but it took about a hundred years to get here and to get to that level about a hundred years now when jesus came just want you to hear what i'm going to say and this is not new age just want you to listen to me when jesus came he only talked about levels of faith but he never talked about levels of development like that so he said that there's different levels of faith there's no faith there's little faith there's great faith that's different levels of faith but now when jesus came he didn't talk about levels he talked about dimensions dimensions what is a dimension it means it's here he came to reveal it he understood it nobody nobody before him could talk about it nobody before him could explain it there was a few little places in the old testament where an axe had swam there was a few places in there where angels did different things and all that was great but when jesus came he said i have come to introduce you to dimensions it's here and you don't have to wait for it to develop through a level it is immediate let me show you what i'm talking about jesus first miracle was the turning of the water into wine how did that happen they gave out a wine at the wedding his mother was there at the wedding and they run out and jesus said go fill the water pots with water and they look to jesus mother as if to say what do you think about this she said do whatever he tells you to do whatever he says to you do it they filled the water pots with water they came back and the bible says that jesus said to them now dip in and go and serve the guest and when they dipped in it was immediate and what did the person that was over the party say he has saved the best to last there was no maturation there was no time lapse it went from water to wine and it was the best wine how did it happen jesus tapped him to another dimension watch this i'm telling you this i'm asking god i'm asking the holy spirit to do such a work in me i'm asking this personally do such a work in me lord that before i die or before jesus comes i can get highly developed into this dimension of faith as we've never known before and here's what it says the bible says jesus gathered and they brought unto him all that were sick there's a scripture up there on the screen so they brought unto jesus all that were sick and whenever he got there he looks out and he sees this mass of people they're just everywhere and they had all kinds of sicknesses diseases all kinds of things that was evident and when the men of that place had knowledge of him they sent into all the country round about and they brought unto him all that was diseased and besought him that they should just touch the hem of his garment because see by now they have heard about the woman that touched the hem of his garment she's made whole so that's the level that people latched on to they latched onto him of his garment him with his garment boy if you can just get the hymn of his garment you're going to be all right so they latched on to that and so they they besought him that they might only touch the hymn of his garment and the bible said as many as touched him were made perfectly whole now let's look at this what is divine healing divine healing needs no scalpel divine healing does not need injections divine healing does not need confidence time divine healing is healed the woman said if i can just touch him i know i'll be whole boom she touched him and she was immediately made whole i'm praying and i'm asking god to let the whole body of christ before christ comes people have said oh brother kilpatrick oh my god things are so bad yes they are but i'm not going to let that be my story i'm going to lead that old story and i'm going to create a new story and what i'm going to say is my god shall do great and mighty things in these last days and so when somebody says brother kilpatrick do you think god can replace limbs how many of y'all believe you can do that well let me tell you something i saw at brownsville one night at brownsville it was like on a tuesday night revival hadn't been going on probably 30 days the place was packed out every night just people everywhere i remember when i understand on a platform with steve and all of a sudden during praise and worship it would be during praise and worship that you could feel the heat of the lord come in and when we'd feel the heat of the lord come in we'd never mention it and say anything about it but when you'd feel that heat you know that the lord was showing up to heal people you could you just knew that that heat was healing people and people would all of a sudden start yelling oh my god i'm healed you know because everybody could feel it but we never brought attention to it so i remember one night steve and i was on the platform and all of a sudden there was this woman right down here and the place was just packed people up against the platform just heads and faces everywhere and this woman was down here and she just starts screaming well i'm pentecostal but if you're going to scream in my church you need a pretty good reason so she started screaming and i just reached over and grabbed her head and her microphone and she was staring at her husband her husband big old burly guy and she was staring at her husband and so i walked down off the stage and i walked i was walking up to her to interview her but she was still screaming and she didn't even see me come and didn't care that i was coming she's just staring at her husband well her husband was an ex-vietnam veteran and while serving in vietnam they threw a grenade in on him and when the grenade came in the tent he picked the grenade up to throw it back out and when he did it got away from his hand but it blew up and blew part of his hand off his hand was growing back i don't think you heard what i just said his hand was growing back i got there and i looked at what she was looking at she never saw me she was just like this she's shaking her hands just stomping in place like that and i thought well let me see what she's looking at and i saw the man's hand growing back and i said so we screamed to do it for jesus but let me tell you what i saw it was the most supernatural thing i've ever seen but the most natural looking thing i've ever seen it blew the skin off his fingers and his skin his fingers had real tight skin it blew a big moon in his hand here when we was looking and i got in on the tail end of it but when we look at looked at his hand the meat was filling in like an invisible laser or something like a sewing machine was sewing new skin on it was like and it was filling in and i looked at that and i thought to myself my god how come we've never seen this before it looks so natural but yet it was supernatural and when it was done the new skin on the back of his hand matched his tan and the new skin on the bottom part of his hand matched the pink skin of his other hand god don't do no junk friend come on give him praise he don't do no junk his ham and we had him come back to brownsville probably 30 40 50 times and show everybody what god did and testify about what god did now let me just say this to you if god ever did it once he can do it again it was a dimension it was a dimension of healing it wasn't just waiting like a doctor says to a person you're going to have to have surgery you're going to have to have this taken out you're gonna have to have this repaired and we're gonna schedule it for two weeks from now and after we cut you open and after we lay you open and we do the surgery it's gonna take you about six weeks to recover and then after you get home and recover it's going to take you a while before you can go back to work now what the doctor's talking about here is a time element you're going to come in on this level you're going to have surgery but it's going to take about six to eight weeks to get you to this level of recovery what jesus is talking about is they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover it's not going to be a convalescent time it's not going to be a surgical scalpel it's not going to be needles it's not going to it's going to be divine healing by the power of the glory of god and the anointing of the holy spirit listen to me friend i believe that we're about to enter into a time in these last days critical days serious perilous times just as things get really bad and they get really dark that's when god's gonna show up and do his greatest work so we can't be overcome by the darkness but we've got to overcome the darkness by the light arise shine your light has come and the glory of the lord has risen upon thee come on give god friends [Applause] listen to this go to jesus feeding the hungry put that on the screen for me aaron jesus feeding the hungry i want to show you something here this is so powerful jesus is such a a pioneer it said when jesus came out he saw much people he was moved with compassion toward them and they were like sheep not having a shepherd and he began to teach them many things back up just a minute he began to teach them many things everybody said it out loud with me he began to instruct them he began to teach them when you teach somebody something there's things they didn't know he taught them many things and so when the day was now far spent it was late in the afternoon they'd been there with him all day his disciples came unto him and said lord this is a desert place the time is far past now if we send these people away that they may go into the country round about and into the villages let's just send them away let them buy some bread because they have nothing to eat jesus answered and said unto them he said the disciples said shall we go into town now here's 5 000 people here's jesus 12 disciples they're faint they've been there all day if you send the crowd home many of them's gonna faint on the way home because i had nothing to eat and so the disciples said this is their way of thinking see this is human thinking human thinking the disciples said should we go into town and buy 200 penny worth of bread and give them to eat in other words when we buy the bread and when we get the meat and everything we're going to have to prepare it for them get ready for it it's going to take a while to get over there it's going to take a long time to get back by then it's going to be dark but at least we can give them something to eat then they can go home jesus just said this well how many loaves take an assessment of your assets he said how many loaves is here today in this crowd and they said well five and there's a little boy here he's got a few fish there's five loaves and there's a few fish jesus said this you see this is what i love jesus is not intimidated by levels see the disciples is thinking in terms of we got to go buy some bread we got to go buy something we got to take time to get over there take time to get back then we got to prepare it and this is just the way it is jesus jesus is saying hey i've got an idea take an asset an assessment of your assets bring me the bread and the bible said that jesus held the bread up like this and he blessed it now listen to me if you ever want something to multiply don't pray over it bless it there's things that you pray over that means you're soliciting heaven for divine intervention you're petitioning god for divine intervention there's things that you will prophesy over you'll reach out into the future get something bring it into the present prophesy over it let it go and it's going to come to pass then there's some things that you don't pray over or prophesy over there's something that you bless if you want something to multiply if you'll notice when jesus was here on the earth if something didn't multiply he always blessed it and so he held it up and he blessed it look what it says he said all right now tell them to sit down by companies upon the green grass they sat down in ranks hundreds and fifties and when he had taken the five loaves he blessed break the loaves gave it to the disciples set before them two fish divided them among them all and they did all eat and they were all filled now look this way just for a minute nobody went to the store nobody walked into town nobody spent 200 penny worth of bread nobody bought no bread nobody bought no fish they all had it right there it was enough it wasn't enough but it was loaves and it was five fish five fish five loaves and a few fish nobody went and bought nothing jesus said there's a better way i want you to watch me because the things that i do you can do also and he said i'm going to go back to the father and the things that i do you'll do also how many of you still believe that because he said i go back to the father so he said to have him sit down and then he gave it to the disciples and here's what happened the 5 000 people had five loaves there's 12 disciples he broke those loaves made sure that everybody had a little bit of a loaf and he said now break it off and when they started breaking it off listen the bread that they broke off was already cooked already baked was the same bread as what they just broke off of what did he do he tapped into another dimension let me tell you something don't kid yourself for one minute the false prophet and the antichrist and the antichrist spirit has some real surprises up their sleeve and they're just about to deceive the masses of mankind but understand this god will not let them get an upper leg on him god is going to have his church and his church will do great exploits and his church will do greater things and jesus said this he said you'll do these things and greater because i go back to my father and i want to tell you something if you're one of those people that's given up on miracles i want you to know i have not given up on miracles i believe they're about to break out like nobody's ever seen before somebody shot a man so he came to me to introduce us to dimensions he healed he fed the thousands and didn't look what he said this about lazarus i want to show you this this is so interesting lazarus put it on the screen martha said unto him she's you know she told you she said if you'd just been here my brother wouldn't have died if you'd just been here jesus looked at martha and he said martha said i know he'll rise again at the last day now let's just leave that on the screen just for a minute let me show you how human beings think i know that he'll rise again i have faith for it when jesus said well tell me about your faith now tell me about the quality of faith that you got when do you believe he'll rise again at the last day why do you believe he'll rise at the last day because it's going to take time and you know what jesus interrupted her and said you know what honey i am the resurrection and i am alive you're thinking you said if i'd have been here yesterday you had faith for yesterday and you got faith for tomorrow but you don't have faith for right now are you listening to what i'm saying he's saying you said if i'd just been here yesterday your brother wouldn't die well i wasn't here and i wasn't here on purpose because i'm trying to introduce you to a dimension of my presence and i want you to see it firsthand i have not abandoned you things may look one way but i'm about to show you my glory hallelujah and then she said i know he'll rise in the resurrection at the last day and what she was saying is i my faith is way out yonder my faith is way out there at the last day and jesus had to step up and say oh but mary you humans could i paraphrase here amen what jesus is saying is mary you humans y'all have this thing about yesterday and you have this thing about tomorrow but mary i have access to a dimension that i can bring him back right now listen to me when i tell you that the false prophet and the antichrist are about to be revealed here before too long there's going to be such a spirit of deception and the bible says that the antichrist and the false prophet will work together for the whole length of the tribulation period and the false prophet will be able to do miracles in the eyes of all the nations of the world the cameras will be there to pick up on it somebody said well will the church still be here i hope not but if we are god is not going to let the antichrist and the false prophet have the last word on miracles so here's what i'm trying to say to you right now let's get out ahead of this thing and let's start experiencing miracles right now because as time goes along we're going to need some really powerful miracles to stand up against what the false prophet and the antichrist are going to be perpetrating on the nations of the world let the church be the church and these signs shall follow them that believe we will move into another dimension and god will give us things that will shock the nations of the world that's where we're headed precoveted days are gone now that has come in everything is changed and i say thank god everything has changed and they're going to change even more quickly in the days to come hallelujah let me close by covering a couple of other things real quickly i want to show you how we get so locked in [Laughter] it's amazing that sometimes we get so locked in on the things that we understand and we believe our understanding is the right understanding and we're not going to change for anybody i want to show you something so profound in scripture peter is up on the rooftop praying and on the mar as they went on their journey they drew night into the city peter went up on the rooftop to pray and it's about the sixth hour now just really look at this this is so amazing just look at this and he became very hungry and would have eaten but while they made ready while they were getting dinner prepared down below in the house he was up on the rooftop he fell into a trance that means an open vision while he was awake a dream is while you're asleep an open vision is you're awake and your eyes are wide open it's a trance you're seeing images and pictures in a video you're wide awake you're not asleep and it's rolling before you just like a video he fell into a trance and he saw all manner of four-footed beasts of the earth and wild beasts and creeping things and fouls of the air and he saw heaven open and a certain vessel descended as if it was a great sheet and it was knit at the four corners in other words it was caught at the four corners to keep things from spilling out and it was let down to the earth and the lord spoke to peter in a voice and said rise peter kill and eat and here was all kinds of unclean animals that the jews would never touch hoofed animals all kinds of stuff they'd never touch it now let me just stop right there just for a minute listen to what i'm going to tell you this is the understanding that peter was standing under what is understanding it's the level of truth that you're standing under jesus knew that peter was standing under a level of truth that was traditional and it was jewish but it did not fit what god was trying to teach him look what happened peter said no not so lord can you imagine listen to me can you imagine a man saying to the lord no i'm a jew don't you understand who i am you're talking to a jew he said not so lord and he said i've never eaten anything that's common or unclean now let's just stop right there what he's saying is i would like to brag on my self-righteousness i'd like to brag on my self-righteousness and just tell you just how traditional i really i'm a real jew jesus i would never do that look what happened the second time the voice spake unto him the second time the lord said what i have cleansed don't call uncommon now look here first time god spoke to him peter said not so lord he contradicted the lord second time the lord speak to him and peter said no he said don't call uncommon but i have bless and so this happened three times look everybody peter contradicted the lord three times now let me just stop right here and ask you a question does peter know who's talking to him he's the god of the universe he's the king of kings and the lord of lords but what peter is talking about is he's telling jesus about what level of understanding and what level of truth he's at and his level of truth is contradicting god's level of truth and god's doing his best to stretch him out of that into another level of understanding look what happened it happened back up the last verse this was done thrice and the vessel was then pulled back up into heaven in other words he would not yield to the lord he would not listen to the lord and the lord just pulled it back up into heaven just he said pull it back up he made him the offer three times here peter kill and eve no here peter killed no don't call common what i don't call uncommon what i call come no the lord said okay retrieve it so while peter doubted in himself that the vision which you'd seen what it should mean the men were sent from cornelius house and made inquiry outside of simon's house and stood before the gate and called and asked whether peter was there is peter lodge is peter lodged here and while peter thought on the vision the spirit said unto him there's three men at the gate i want you to go with them so he arose he got down like the lord told him to he said go with them don't doubt anything i've sent them when peter went down to the men which were sent up to him from cornelius he said i'm the one you're seeking i'm peter i'm simon peter why have you come what's the cause of your visit and they said cornelius the centurion a gentile has sent us he's a man that fears god he's a man of good report among all the nation of the jews and he was warned from god by a holy angel to send for you into this house at this address and we're to hear your words so he called them in and lodged them put them up for the night when the morning came peter went away with them and certain brethren from joppa and accompanied these three guys and it took a day to get there and when they entered into caesarea cornelius was waiting for him and he had called them all together his kinsmen and his near friends a bunch of gentiles in the house and as peter was coming in cornelius met him and fell down at his feet a gentile fell down at peter's feet and grabbed him and peter said get up don't do that i'm just a man like you are and so peter took him up and said stand up i myself just a man and as he talked with him he went in and found many that were come together and he said unto them you know it's unlawful that me as a jew i shouldn't even come under the roof of this gentile people but then that vision had a chance to work in him see when god led it down to him three times and he disagreed with god three times he contradicted god three times now he's had about 24 hours to work in him and now he said this he said but god has shown me that i should not call uncommon or clean unclean what god has pronounced clean and look what it says therefore came i unto you without gain saying as soon as i was sent for i ask therefore what intent you have sent for me and peter opened his mouth instead of a truth i perceive oh my god there it is that god is no respecter person so let me stop right here let me start right here listen to me how did that information come to peter it was a vision and the voice of god taught him it wasn't through ups it wasn't through fedex it wasn't through amazon can you believe that it wasn't through any other means but a another dimension he's up on the rooftop freezes eyes wide open a video's going in front of him and a voice is talking to him a sheet's let down it's another dimension speaking to him right there on the rooftop don't you call unclean pulls the sheet back up he can't get it out of his mind it works on him 24 hours now he goes to cornelius house and when he gets to corny is his house he preaches the holy spirit to him and while he's preaching the holy spirit to them they were so anxious to hear about the holy spirit that they all had experienced while he was still preaching the holy spirit fell on everybody in the house and they all received the baptism of the holy spirit now where did that information come from another dimension let me say this to you real quickly and i'm going to close like i told you this is just one part this is just one message i think i have seven or eight other messages on this it's called the eyes of your understanding but in dreams whoa what is a dream a god dream it comes from another dimension you're on your bed the bible calls it slumberings and the bible calls it deep sleep listen to me carefully deep sleep is rem sleep you're deep and the bible says when deep sleep falleth upon men god speaketh once yea twice god does what in deep sleep when man is on his bed god speaks once yay twice from another dimension you're not moving the temperature's right you're covered up it's dark and god's speaking to your spirit man from another dimension and he's showing you things and when you wake up you've got it where did you get it from another dimension god told joseph in a dream don't be afraid to take mary your wife because that which is conceived in her is a holy thing spoke to him in a dream used another dimension to get a hold of a man that his girlfriend was pregnant that was worried about what people would say god used another dimension to speak to him and said i'll take care of all the details you just take care of her and god used another dimension called dreams to warn joseph not to abandon mary because the father of this child is the holy spirit another dimension listen they're all around us we're so caught up today with things we're so caught up with things that we worry about sickness pandemic shots vaccinations biting trump about god that's a plateful right there we're caught up with this we're caught up with that and the devil's doing a masterful job right now of side tracking the church but here's what i'm saying get that out of your mind and get that out of your spirit god is about to rise up and do great and mighty things in these last days and i can't wait to see what god is about to do [Applause] will you give me just a few more minutes will you give me just a few more minutes is this okay let me talk to you for a minute about dreams it said deep sleep is rem sleep in a dream in a vision of the night when deep sleep falls upon men and slummers upon their bed it uses two words here deep sleep is rem sleep that means when you're very deep into sleep you're gone you're asleep you're not half awake you're deep into sleep and the bible says in a vision of the night it is a vision it is a vision you're in deep sleep and god is a spirit and god can send the holy spirit into your spirit because it's not substance he can send his spirit into your spirit and cause you to dream whatever he wants you to dream god can take his finger and just pull and design the tributary that he wants you to dream in and to dream and see it in technicolor and god speaks to you in a vision of the night and then slumbering is not rem sleep but it means when you're coming out of sleep and that's usually when god speaks to me the most when i'm coming out of sleep it's like i'm coming up out of a well and as i'm coming up out of that well i can already hear the lord talking to me he's already talking while i'm coming up and he's speaking to me about a message i'm going to be preaching he's speaking to me about something that's going on in the world and he's already talking and i'm slumbring's in my bed i'm slumbering i'm not asleep but i'm not awake herod's wife said when jesus was standing before herod herod's wife sent a note to her husband she said herod you have nothing to do with that man i had a morning dream this morning slumbering up on my bed and she said the things i saw she said don't you have a thing don't you touch him don't you put your hands on this man herod got right up washed his hands over a bowl of water and dried him off and he said his blood won't be on my hands he turned it back over to the high priest that dream that his wife had may have saved herod's life slum rings upon her bed don't you ever don't you ever minimize in this day and time especially that when you go to bed at night that god's not going to speak to you in your sleep matter of fact i've got to where just like when i get ready for bed i'll brush my teeth i'll go in i do my little things i get ready i'd go to bed pull the cover up cut the light out and this is where i'm going to bed every night now i'm saying lord i want to know i want to know i don't want to be kept in the dark lord if you'll tell me if you'll show me all with wisdom show me show others what you're showing me but lord i want to know show me talk to me while i'm asleep i've actually got up went to the bathroom in a dream while i'm dreaming and come back and said all right now lord continue the dream and the lord continue the dream you know we all have to take bathroom breaks occasionally you know what i'm saying and just when i wake up it's like man i just knew but look at this scripture though this is so interesting look at this scripture it said when deep sleep falls upon men in a vision of the night when deep sleep comes upon me and slumbering upon their bed in verse 16 it says he opens the ears of men and seals their instruction oh my goodness what he opens the ears of men you mean these ears no not these ears no if you hurt if he was asleep and you heard some of these ears he'd wake you up he opens men's ears inside ears inside eyes and seals their instruction seals it you might not even know what it is but when you wake up you know something's changed then the bible says this that he may withdraw man from his purpose and hide pride from man i looked up that word he opens the ears of men seals their instruction that word instruction comes from the word mokhar mosar and it means instruction or admonition what god says is in sleep something that's happening to you that you're god's speaking to you from another dimension he's giving you an admonition it's an act of warning he's notifying you of a fault in your life that he wants you to correct he's giving you counsel against some evil practices maybe you're dabbling in pornography god's going to talk to you while you're asleep he's trying to talk to you while you're awake but there's too much interruptions but while you're asleep he's going to talk to you he's going to open your ears you're going to hear him it's a mozart it's an instruction it's an admonition it's an act of warning and it means nine things admonition means nine things to caution to advise to exhort to instruct to direct to remind to recall urge to duty and to imprint god resorts to the dimension of dreams to bypass your pride because when you're awake your pride would not let the lord talk to you but when you're asleep he disarms your pride and he comes right in and says what he wants to say and he knows you got it the bible says that he may withdraw man from his purpose and hide pride from men pride cloaks and conceals sinful intentions when we have sinful intentions planning on leaving our wife leaving our husband we're planning on doing something that we know is not right we have sinful intentions the bible says that he'll hide pride from men and when we hide behind that pride we fall prey to self-deception so dreams strip away pride defenses and invades areas of your hidden intentions and god will point them out to you and he'll say i know what you're up to i see your sinful plans it's complex structures of iniquity in the mind and dreams plead with you god pleads with you in dreams to abandon those plans and those evil ways and to do what's right he'll plead with you in your dream dreams have the ability to take those protected intents and thoughts of your heart and cause us to see them and be startled by them so that when we wake up we don't have pride they're defending those things anymore we wake up startled and we we we're ready to repent because god finally got through to us and there was no centurions there pride to keep the lord away the dimensions of dreams are very common and they're very profound so i close today and what i want to say is somewhere down the line i don't know where but it's happening over a long period of time somewhere down the line pentecostals have gotten away from the prophetic and pentecostals have gotten away from the power of the holy spirit and pentecostals have gotten away from tongues interpretation of tongues discerning of spirits the gifts of the holy spirit somehow pentecostals have gone into the soul but we've abandoned the spirit and we love soulish things and we love solely's preaching but we don't want to hear much about spirit preaching and so what the holy spirit is saying to me is this tell the people and warn the people return to me because i'm about to show them great and mighty things go ahead lord spoke to me recently and he said this he said i'm about to show housewives things that the greatest of preachers never knew just normal housewives are about to come in contact with revelation knowledge that even some of his most powerful preachers has never seen before this is about to happen why the times require it and the times demand it so listen in heaven there'll be no more mysteries while we're here the lord's saying i'm going to reveal all the mysteries before my coming tell the people to get ready when they go to sleep and say lord show me mysteries show me what you want to show me tell me what you want to tell me and make sure you ground it in doctrine make sure you're grounded in sound doctrine but in the days to come this is my last statement in the days to come you're going to begin to hear and see things that is going to make your mouth fly open and you're going to say oh my god the antichrist is not going to share this stage in the last days by himself god is going to do great and mighty things god bless you thank you very much hallelujah let's stand up and give god praise come on give him praise lift your voice [Applause] hallelujah come on lift your voices just for a moment just for a moment lift your voice [Applause] put your hands on your head please i release dreams and visions i release dreams and visions in this house up in the balcony on the main floor live streaming audience i release dreams and visions dreams be loosed visions be loose and dimensions of the spirit of god that this church has never realized or flown in before i release those dimensions of the spirit of god for you to begin to move in and out of it with ease in jesus mighty name hallelujah amen hallelujah glory hallelujah
