also brother micah if you can find the little video clip for black history month we generally have quite a few people that only watch us on sunday night and i would like to challenge everyone god has given us a mandate from heaven when i prayed and asked the lord lord what what's the direction what road we going to be traveling on in 2021 well what am i supposed to do where are we going the scripture john chapter 20 verse 21 shot up in my heart jesus said my peace i give unto you as the father has sent me so i send you we are on a pursuit of the great commission winning people to the lord if this is your first time here or your first time watching by internet our average internet audience right now is about 46 000. and i realize we have an awesome responsibility you know when you've got that many people watching what you're doing you've got to be careful what you say be careful what you look like be careful what you sound like you've got to measure up with this bible because we're going to give an account we will give an account for causing people to go the wrong direction and the lord for the whole month this month of february has brought to my attention the harvest cannot come in except we first pray so the message this morning was when you pray the next few weeks we're dealing with prayer that'll change your destiny the effectual fervent prayer and then the battleground of prayer and if you're not able to be here i i don't even know how i know when the bible says i beseech you i beg you i don't know how else to put it i don't feel like i'm any special person but i do feel like the anointing is special and there was a special anointing on that service today and i already know that people that were watching by internet were touched by god so you young people that don't make it on sunday morning i don't know where you you know let's just go on if you're young you need to you need to do the best you can for the lord because when you get older you can't you know my parents not only went to every service every time the doors were open dad was in the hospital last night had to go to emergency they had to do a quick procedure and he was able to come home and they never not only did they never miss a church service nor revival but they they believe that you should go to every wedding and every funeral if it was a church family they believed in treating everyone in the church as if it was their family and that kind of that kind of feeling generally only comes when you're close to the lord in prayer but we want you to go to the internet and watch those and all of you in the internet there's forty six thousand it around that somewhere on our live stream i don't know how many is on youtube and all the other avenues but i've i've had a decision i was struggling with and i'm i gave myself eight weeks from the first of the year to make a decision but we've got so much response daystar network gives we have a greater opportunity to touch the world through daystar than any avenue this church has ever had today over one million people had access or are watching daystar not have access it's way up in the millions but actually there's a one million people that watch daystar today at four o'clock this afternoon community family church from independence kentucky in the hills of kentucky was right there among those programs but only seven percent of our partnership income comes from daystar the other 93 comes from people who watch online live streaming or youtube and i don't know it's very difficult for me to try to explain to the daycare daystar audience that i need to hear from you i i gave them a little just a little taste that i needed to hear from him and boy did we hear but we heard from a lot of elderly people that called the church they said i don't have i'm on a fixed income and i can't support but please tell him that's the only church i get we got letters we've got emails we just got another check in the mail from a little sister in vermont these people don't watch online the elderly and the poor do not have access to the gospel this is what's like when i was on channel 64 in cincinnati and if i ever get the funds i want to go back on because when i was on channel 64 i was in every jail every nursing home and the people the poor people of cincinnati could watch me free without any cable so you that are watching by internet i need you to help me if you talk to people and they say well i watch on daystar say he really needs to here to have partners from the daystar network in a business sense when 93 of your income is coming from one source that's very simple you just remove the other one and you take that very expensive expense and you apply it to other things put it this way church if i wasn't paying that price on television i could have already built that sanctuary you understand i'm talking about with the partners i'm in a struggle i need help i i and i and also you that are watching my internet when this pandemic according to the people who seemed to know when it was going to show up and it was going to be bad in july be bad in november be bad during the inauguration they said it's going to lighten off in march thank the lord all the prophecies have come true so far i'm not talking talk about all those that predict this sickness and so i'm hoping this this one will be right and it will lighten up it's not going to leave but it will lighten up so but god's given us power through it and i'm going to read off the new partners we have and i believe that many of these i don't know i believe many of these heard my plea on day star which means they're not watching right now but some of them may be and we want to give god praise i only have addresses for about four of them but i'm going to go ahead and mention these names because there's a like i said a totally different off uh viewing audience on sunday night we have darylan from fort worth texas gene from bartlett tennessee grace no address linda fort lamari ohio jay and brittany from independence kentucky now you're not supposed to know who they are these others i do not have addresses but we have lois daniel sharon crystal victoria siege and claude we have these let's give them all a good warm welcome and before i preach tonight i wanted to show you just a short video clip this is black history month it's this time that the united states of america goes back into our history you know the darkest the darkest covering we have over this nation is when we took human beings made in the image and likeness of god strip them down to a loin cloth put them on a slave block and sold them and bought them that's a very dark picture i know none of us did it i know you didn't do it and i know you've our african descent were not on the slave block because a change was made but as a nation we take this month in an apologetic but yet an appreciative moment to say thank you thank you for the contribution that you who were taken from your country brought to this country as slaves that many of you died in the atlantic ocean were thrown over like a piece of animal we thank you because you have contributed great and the one we're going to feature today is rance allen and i got to preach for the church of god in christ in one of their big conferences over 3 000 there church went to after midnight oh my goodness i was the only i think i was the only white man there hallelujah if you were looking at color and it was in the summer and i was as dark as i could possibly get i've got some age spots that are pretty brown though but i want us to watch this video clip and then we're just going to give god praise for how the african american people have blessed this nation throughout history praise god as americans all across our nation celebrate black history month community family church also joins in the celebration and today we recognize the incredible life of gospel music legend bishop ranz allen born in 1948 allen had 11 brothers and sisters and grew up in singing with his family in the pentecostal church he and his brothers formed a band called the rants allen group and recorded 26 albums and received five grammy nominations known for the extremely wide vocal range and powerful singularities allen popularized the song something about the name jesus he has sung this in presence of american presidents but now in heaven he sings in the very presence of the king of kings with his electrifying personality and anointed sinking and preaching bishoprens allen has been an inspiration to christians all across the world and today we recognize his legacy let's all stand tonight come on give the lord a great praise give go ahead give the lord a great praise [Music] [Applause] i want you to praise the lord loud enough to where the demons in hell know there are no racial barriers in the holy ghost you hear that devil you hear that true demonic power [Music] you you may divide them out there in the kingdom of darkness but the kingdom of light which operates by the holy ghost cannot be divided glory to god i said glory to god glory to because god and a half won't do 99 and a half won't do you gotta live right to make a [Music] 99. right is you know i was thinking while dad you know was going to the hospital i could hear his voice in the old church with hardwood floors knotty pine walls and a knotty pine sealant when they sang 99 and a half won't do they meant it that means you got to give god everything you can't keep your little secret websites off in the corner you can't keep your little girlfriend on the on the side no you can't say your little bad words when you get mad amen and you don't wear one of those crazy swimming suits that looks like a string up your backside and shake your naked body on the beach you heard what i said 99 and a half wall two [Music] one more time praise god before we read our scripture this wednesday night brother dwayne napier is going to be teaching on wednesday night here i'm scheduled to preach in florida it's going to be 84. i want you all pray for me that i won't get too much sun i'll be back though i'll be back we have another funeral and uh but brother dwayne napier's gonna be teaching on israel in prophecy and he's been to israel several times and with me he's got pictures to show about how the nation was formed six day war it's gonna be something you and the adult class if you're another class stay in your class so you can grow but you adults this is your time there's plenty of room in here and you can enjoy the presence of the lord first corinthians chapter 6 verses 19 and 20. i'll read verse 19 and let's read verse 20 together what don't you know that your body is the temple of the holy ghost which is in you which you have of god and you are not your own verse 20 for ye are bought with a price therefore glorify god in your body and in your spirit which are gods just for a few moments this evening we're dealing with a subject bought with the price and we're so glad to have our pastor friend with us here brother chris davidson a great church down in rock castle county kentucky and his wife are there any more pastors or missionaries or ministers in the house that i failed to see that i didn't see you tonight and anybody watching my internet you got 10 million dollars i need to build a new church in jesus name i forgot to mention that but let the holy ghost take that little short saying and touch somebody in jesus name let's pray father we come to you in the name of jesus let your word go forth with much love much compassion much faith and let it be preached god as the scripture says with not with enticing words of men's wisdom but of demonstration and power of the holy ghost we'll give you all the praise and all the glory in the mighty wonderful name of jesus and the church says amen you may be seated just for a few moments i'm going to deal with the subject bought with a price you see we believe in one god this one god has revealed himself as god the father god the son god the holy ghost god the father as we know he's so massive he's so great that he holds all of the waters of the entire universe in the palm of his hand the pacific ocean the atlantic ocean caribbean sea the mediterranean sea all in the palm of his hand he measures the universe with the span of his hand that means all the way from the rings around saturn all the way to mars all those all those planets and especially in our solar system that we know about personally these are measured by the span of his hand the earth's the bible said the earth is his footstool this is all poetic language letting you know that how massive that god is that he's omnipresent everywhere all the time that he is omniscient he's all-knowing that he is omnipotent he is all-powerful now this great god condescended as isaiah said he said god's going to come he's going to be born of a virgin he's going to make himself known among you his name will be called emmanuel god with us so the god above us from which every good gift and every perfect gift comes down from above from the father of lights in whom is no variable there's no shadow of churning he became god with us now when god came to this earth he didn't come into a palace he didn't come into some great beautiful edifice of any kind he was born just like all lambs were born in a shepherd's cave he was wrapped in swaddling clothes which were actually strips of cloth that they used to wrap the dead in that's how poor that jesus came to this earth he was wrapped in swaddling clothes jesus was raised in a little town called nazareth nazareth was the poorest pat town and city in the whole country of israel as a matter of fact one of the people in the word of god when they heard that jesus was raised in nazareth for till he was 30 years old they said nazareth you've got to be kidding that's a bunch of uneducated people that's a bunch of people there there's nobody down there has anything there no no priests come out of nazareth there's no power comes out of nazareth they said it's the land of no good nothing good has ever come out of nazareth but the bible said that jesus chose to live in a town called no good in order to bring us the best that we could have god manifest in the flesh he came to this earth he lived in a poor man's house he ate poor man's food he slept in a poor man's bed he run across those cobblestone streets down there if they had him it was probably dirt if he lived in nazareth he rot run across those dirt streets barefoot just like all the other little children he sat there he knew what it was like to mourn he knew what it was like to cry he knew what it was like to have with to be without and not have the things that he wanted or the things that he needed but yet he was god manifest in the flesh but when he became 30 years old the spirit of god he took off his carpentry belt all of those things he'd been working there in joseph's carpentry building and he took them off and said it's time for me to go the father god the progenitor of life i come out of the bosom of the father it's time for me to obey his voice and jesus of nazareth a nobody from nowhere as far as this world was concerned he made his way down to the river of jordan and there john the baptist was preaching and john said i indeed baptize you with water but there's one coming after me who is mightier than i whose shoelaces i'm not worthy to stoop down and loose and when he's come he's going to baptize you in the holy ghost and with fire and all at once he looked up on the banks of the jordan river probably 150 000 at least that were there they hadn't heard a prophet in over 400 years he pointed his finger on the banks of the jordan river and he said behold the lamb of god which takes away the sins of the world jesus a nobody from nowhere from a place called no good that nobody knew anything about he went down into the water he went down to be baptized and when he went under the water the voice spoke from heaven and said this is my beloved son in whom i am well pleased this is my beloved son he was conceived by the holy ghost he was brought into this world by the power of the holy ghost as far as incarcerated in human flesh but yet he was god manifest in the flesh he went down in that water the bible said the holy spirit formed a dove the dove flew down little lit upon his head and the voice spoke from heaven and said this is my beloved son in whom i'm well pleased 150 people turn 150 000 people turn around and look at what in the world is going on today the heavens have opened up and then mysteriously as he came and as he showed up and nobody knew who he was nobody knew this nobody from nowhere as mysterious as that was the bible said the holy ghost said all right now that you've emptied of yourself and made of yourself of no reputation and you've taken all of your godly kingly powers and you've you've left them on reserve i'm going to lead you as i lead i will lead humanity when you leave i'm going to lead you somewhere and the holy ghost led jesus into the wilderness oh what a terrible place i mean god announces that you're the son of god the holy ghost confirms it with a dove and then all at once the spirit of god leads you into the wilderness and he said you know who you're gonna face you're gonna face that evil that fallen share above that diabolical wicked one the one that's caused havoc upon this world the one that's caused cancer sickness disease and poverty the one that's called drunk calls drunkenness the one that's caused homes to be departed the ones that cause all kinds of filth and trash on this world you're gonna face him you're gonna look at him face to face and the bible said that jesus went into the wilderness and he went in to fast and 40 days and 40 nights he fasted now when the enemy came to him the sun had been shining on his parched brown he'd been drinking water the bible doesn't say he didn't drink water he had been drinking water he was nothing but skin and bones this massive six foot two carpenter that came out of nazareth strong as an ox his body was nothing but weak you could see his bone skeletal frame coming through his flesh you could see his lips were parched from how he had been fasting and the sun had been beating up on his face and there in the weakest form of his fleshly time in the weakest form of his flesh the devil never comes at you when you're full of power he never comes to you when you're when you've got a big stake sitting on the plate he doesn't come to you and life is easy he doesn't come to you when your bills are paid he doesn't come to you when things are going good he waits until you've got a pain in the side he waits until you get a bad report from the from the doctor he waits until your house is getting ready to go into foreclosure he waits until you got a family problem he waits until your husband walks off and leaves you he waits until your wife goes wild and leaves you he waits until your children have turned against you he waits until the church is in a depressed state he waits until it seems like revival is a thousand miles away he waits up until you seemingly have lost your desire lost your praise lost your shout and lost your joy it's he waits until you're most vulnerable in the flesh most vulnerable in the flesh you hear the holy ghost tonight the enemy's not going to come at you when you're bursting forth with power and praise he's going to come when your flesh is right at the right moment that's when he comes with his temptation that's when he comes knocking on your door but jesus successfully walks out of that wilderness and says it is written it is written it is written he defeats satan by the word of god he did not defeat satan by stomping his foot and calls it an earthquake he didn't defeat satan by waving his hand and causing a hurricane he didn't defeat satan by snapping his finger and causing him to just diminish and turn into some dustly creature no no because he knew that you have no power to do that you can't snap your finger and cause the devil to crawl on his belly you can't snap your finger and stomp your foot and cause a mighty earthquake you can't clap your hands and cause a hurricane you can't fight the devil like that he went to fight the devil how you have to fight the devil and he took the sword of the spirit which is the word of god and he said when you're weak in your flesh you better get your bible out when you're weak in spirit you better get your bible out when your flesh has been attacked by a spirit of infirmity and sicknesses in your body you better open up that bible and fight with the word of god you can't fight it with the praise i know that song says it's how i fight my battles it takes the word a praise verifies the word but you can't just just make sounds it's not sounds and motions that fight the devil if sounds and motions would fight the devil all we'd have to do is play a little bit of put your right hand in put your right hand out put your right hand in let's shake it all about and the devil would have to leave but he don't care if you put your right hand in your left hand in your head your head go back up he don't care if you spin around he doesn't care if you twirl and jump up and down but when you say it is written by his stripes i am healed and then you look the powers of darkness in the eye and say i'm going to raise my hands for the word's sake i'm going to praise god for the word's sake i'm going to lift up my voice to heaven because of the word's sake not because that's just something i do that's when your praise fights your battle it isn't just a song it isn't just a rhythm it's not just a sound where you clap your hands and we've got young people all over that's bee bopping back and forth this is how i fight my battle this is how i fight my battle and they don't even have enough god to get out of the bed with their girlfriend they don't even have enough of god to change their vocabulary they don't have enough of god to get out of that filthy cinema and quit watching naked bodies and listen to the f word over and over you hear me tonight well glory you don't fight your battle with a rhythm you don't fight your battle with the tambourine you don't fight the devil with the hand clap the hand clap the tambourine or to verify the word of god the hand clap and the shout are because of the word you've got to look that devil in the eye and say he that has begun a good work is faithful to complete it i will overcome by the blood of the lamb and by the word of my testimony and when you say that then you fight your battle then you give god praise then you start dancing you don't even have to have a tambourine to dance you don't even have to have an organ to dance you don't have to have anybody around you to dance you don't have to have your favorite song you don't have to be bop back and forth with the lights off no no you don't need any of that when you're praising god because of the word you can praise god in the middle of a trial in the middle of darkness in the middle of sickness in the middle of pain come on give him a shout of praise [Applause] shout it this is how i fight my battle [Applause] come on say it a few times this is how i fight my battle this is how i fight my battle this is how i fight my battle yeah and when you've got the word coming out of your mouth and the praise goes along with it you are going to win i said when your praise is matching your word you're going to win when your praise is matching the unshakable uncompromised eternal word of god then satan hates it because he knows that dance is not an emotion you're dancing on the word you're shouting on the word you're praising on the word you're singing on the word you're shaking that tambourine on the word you're raising your hands on the word then when you jump it terrifies him then when you shout it terrified then when you run the aisles isles it terrifies him then when you say glory it terrifies him i'm in the business of making the devil nervous [Applause] [Music] everybody say yes everybody say yes everybody say yes oh yes if you believe it's true let me hear you say yes do you believe it do you believe it amen do you believe it [Applause] do you believe it if you believe it shout amen [Music] somebody said what are you doing i'm fighting my battle i said i'm fighting my battle i'm fighting my battle because god said it i believe it that settles it i'm gonna make it i'm gonna overcome because of the sword of the spirit shout a little bit hallelujah [Applause] have you got a holy ghost speaking in tongues have you got the holy ghost speaking in tongues if you've got the holy ghost and fire wave your hands shallow [Music] i know now jesus came out of that wilderness [Music] i said he came out of the wilderness i know you're not supposed to talk to anybody keep your distance and don't spit on him say he came out so i can come out [Applause] he came out you know he came out of the tomb you're not there yet tell somebody you're still alive there's no tomb you're not in no tomb he came out of that tomb yes he did but he came out of that wilderness where he fought the devil face to face because he knew one day i was going to be in the wilderness oh how many wilderness have i been in in 48 years of ministry i've been in quite a few how many years of ministry have you been in oh but the more you go in the more you know because he he came out i'm coming out and i will not be defeated i will not go under [Applause] [Music] you say satan you caught me at a weak moment my flesh is weak you're you're you're really working me over but because he came out i'm coming out of this wilderness i'm not going back to that bar room i'm not going back

ghost has a message for somebody when you come out of this wilderness you're coming out in the power of the spirit you may [Applause] spiritually i'm going to go on because i do have a message spiritually you may have went into that wilderness 110 pounds anemic not one muscle i mean you look like somebody could and you fall over and the devil's played hard on you and he's pushed hard on you

[Applause] [Music] now give the lord one glorious praise so when well i've already got my jacket off so when he came out in the power of the spirit he healed the sick he raised the dead he cast out the devil and he fed the 5 000 with the loads of bread he opened a blinded eyes he unstopped the deaf ears everywhere he went oh my lord he was doing good [Music] three and a half years good but the jesus that we love the jesus we love he got on a little donkey call colt his feet were dragging the ground his legs were sticking straight out nobody ever ridden this little colt but he gets on this colt not the mule that a king would ride zachariah said not for this man he's gonna get on a cult through the streets of jerusalem with his legs sticking straight out a very humiliating ride people begin to scream and cry hosanna that means save us lord only you can save us hosanna save us seven days before it would all happen seven days later he takes his disciples to an upper room and there he begins to wash their feet he partakes of the passover meal he said this is my body which is broken for you this juice is the blood of the new covenant drinky all of it do this in remembrance of me then he said let's go to the mount of olives and i've been there so many times they began to walk up that and it was cobblestone in those days the old roman roads up the windy streets of the mount of olives i'm talking about the same one the same one that faced the devil the same one that healed the sick and raised the dead the same one that was born of a virgin he goes to the garden of gethsemane it's late they've had a big dinner everybody's tired and wore out he takes peter and john with him koshla behonda and he went off yonder to pray there as i go to the mount of olives there's a big rock that traditionally and historically they call it the rock of agony people for nearly two thousand years have been coming to this rock of agony because it is believed through tradition that on this rock is where jesus prayed until his sweat became as great drops of blood and he said i know i'm i know who i am i don't know the price that must be paid but if you could take this away from me if there could be another way but nevertheless not my will but i want your will to be done and if you haven't come to that experience one day you will one day you'll come to an experience that says i've got to give this up and this up if i'm going to get the best of god the disciples were sleeping there jesus said sleep on sleep on about that time at the bottom of that mountain the bible said a quanturian or something like that of soldiers over 660 with torches roman soldiers all of them look like beasts it was the top notch of the roman empire it was men that knew how to fight they'd already fought through germa germany hungary yugoslavia spain these men knew how to fight with torches in their hands full armor from their head to their feet you hear the stomping of the feet of the roman army as they made their way up the mount of olives everyone in rhythm every walking sound like a glowing monster coming up jesus stands there my lord and my savior never done anything wrong the lamb of god he stands there judas walks up because jesus i know people like to put a tallit on him that's a prayer shawl and all the pictures you have he's got a halo around his head he emptied himself of that they didn't know which one was a fisherman which one was a tax collector or which one was the son of god he blended right in because of his humanity oh he might have been clothed in flesh but in that flesh and blood was god manifest judas kisses him on the cheek the roman soldier looks can't believe it can't believe that this six foot two green eyed jew with black curly hair and dark olive skin this is the sea walker this is the blind man healer this is the leopard cleanser this is the man that walks on water this is the man that fed over 20 000 people with a little boy's lunch couldn't believe it took his big robust body began to breathe his filthy breath upon christ and says are you jesus jesus just simply looks at him says i am he the bible said all 600 of them fell like dominoes all the way down drop their torches don't you ever underestimate the power of god don't you think that god can't take human flesh and cause it to pass out right on the ground they got up brushing themselves jesus said i'm ready you're not going to take me no one's going to kill me i'm going to offer myself the jews can't kill me the roman empire can't kill me a sword won't take me i will die what isaiah said they took him to pilate's judgment hall they questioned him they spit upon him the saliva those soldiers was beyond reproach the horrible stench and contamination they smacked his face they smote him grabbed him by the beard till they pulled out hands full of his beard took him to the whipping post and that big robust roman soldier a man that with one slash of his whip could jerk the flesh out of your back he took your god the one you've been shouting about the one you've been praising the one you've been clapping your hands and the one that brought you here tonight took your god begin to beat that back on that whipping post beat that pack pete flesh was flying everywhere flesh of the son of god going everywhere there when the beating was over they took a purple robe and put on his back hail the king of the jews he needs a crown they took those infectious like we have here in kentucky the honey locusts thorns that are at least three inches long they braided them together they stuffed him on his head shoved him into his forehead now the infection is swelling his face he's got rips in his flesh where they pulled out his beard his face is swollen twice the size his back is beyond recognition the next morning they go down the via dela rosa your god your savior your king your redeemer he walks with the cross down and every time it hit those cobblestones that cross would bounce on his poor back but simon of cyrene a man from africa probably a slave himself a man from africa walked over to the roman soldier when jesus stumbled give me his cross give me his cross simon of cyrene the african put the cross on his shoulder made his way to a hill called calvary to a place called golgotha nine o'clock in the morning they put the nails in his hands and in his feet your savior your god your king your redeemer at nine o'clock in the morning they jolted that cross in the ground the flesh rips at 12 o'clock midnight at 12 o'clock in the day noon a solar eclipse hid the sun and it became midnight in the middle of the day people are running through the streets of jerusalem what is this it's midnight in the middle of the day at nine o'clock till 12 o'clock the pain and the suffering from 12 o'clock now it's 3 o'clock in the afternoon jesus stretches his body and with a loud voice in the weakness of his flesh he stares the powers of your adversary right in the face it is finished when he said those words it is finished the payment the price was made for the past penalty of my sin the present power of my sin and the future effects of my sin let me tell you something church the days of old when i was a child could never be erased out of my memory coming to the little church i know the one you see down there that's when they added to it but the little church was even smaller than that the women it was usually two times a year the saturday before easter and new year's eve they didn't take communion like some churches every sunday it was a very sacred moment very sacred they would come in and they knew this is the night of the lord's supper they would start singing songs about the blood of jesus i know it was a blood i know it was a blood i know it was the blood for me the women had taken their sheets and sewn them together they took a wire across the platform to make a curtain rod they took safety pins and made a curtain and i'm just a little burr hair cut boy about five years old all at once here comes the elders the old elder men in the church they've got towels and they got water basins and they're coming in they're going to have a foot washing yeah brother floyd's father albert floyd he would take the towel and wrap it around his waist just like jesus did the women would come up on the platform i don't know what went on behind there but i never heard such crying and shouting in all of my life and sometimes you'd see water swinging over the top of those sheets those women they didn't believe you should ever take the lord's supper until you had foot washing first because they wanted to make sure that if you didn't love your brother you had no business taking the lord's supper after the foot washing was over then all at once they'd start singing again many times i've seen mom with her guitar walk across that aisle walk across that platform with a 30 inch ponytail five and a half inch high heels singing songs like i want to thank jesus for the plan of salvation when they drove the nails in his hands and his feet as death closed his eyes the you would have thought jesus was right there you would have thought the blood was coming out of his hands some of the old women would go [Applause] it was a terrifying experience if you were lost now this adoration for the cross of jesus and the holy ghost so put on my heart for this service tonight we've had a journey getting to this message but the spirit of god put this on my heart because the scripture says looking unto jesus the author and finisher of our faith who for the joy was set before him endured the cross and despised the shame and is set down at the right hand of the father the next verse is where the power is consider him who endured such contradiction of sinners against himself lest you be wearied and faint in your minds and this is the message that the spirit of god wants to give you tonight when you get weary and you get faint in your minds when i was here praying last night until i got the call that dad had to go to the hospital brother wayne i kept on walking and crying i started singing songs like i've been to calvary i can say i've seen the lord i've been to calvary through the witness of his word each day a calvary what a thrill of love divine just to know that the savior is mine and then i was walking back through here and i was singing jesus keep me if you'll turn these lights down and keep that cross lit up i want you to get the feeling i had there's a pressure [Music] [Applause] [Music] the crosstalk my glory [Music] shall find rest beyond [Music] and i will cherish [Music] last night [Music] [Applause] [Music] will [Music] there is [Music] [Music] punch [Music] devil lose all their [Music] you can lift those lights up [Music] please [Music] the spirit of god spoke to me and said because of this pandemic that many have gotten weary and see it all fits in now now i'm putting the message together it's all coming together how that god so designed this but this is what the holy spirit spoke to me the holy ghost said these words to my heart you tell everyone to say holy ghost take me to calvary if you've been in a battle if you've been discouraged if you've been weary the holy spirit was there in jesus in christ on that cross and he's with you right now he can tell you details about that cross that's not in that bible you can be so you can be so [Music] taken by the supernatural power of the holy ghost that he can take you to that whipping post and when that enemy comes to you and breathes down the back of your neck and says you're not gonna make it you say holy ghost take me to the cross take me to the cross take me to the cross i want you to take me till i can hear the whip hit my savior's back i want you to take me to the cross until i see his swollen head i want you to take me to the cross until i can hear him say it is finished and i promise you when the holy ghost takes you to the cross when you come out of the wilderness you're gonna come out through the power of the spirit of the living god let's all stand our feet tonight

tonight he's taken us on a journey we as the people of god [Music] have got to remain at the foot of the cross in order to keep our victory for the preaching of the cross to the world is foolishness
