First Church Truth of God Broadcast 1623-1624 December 26th, 2021 Sunday AM Live from HQ Campus PA.

the development of all people who want to be right you that are here this afternoon and to our viewers we're glad to be back with you again and the devil have rules too that's true but god rules will save you devil rules will destroy you god knows it will i had a beautiful meeting last week in lafayette louisiana we baptize 78 in the name of the lord jesus excellent it's just a blessing to see the hand of god all the time with no letter where the message of holiness goes is a blessing that god always put his approval upon it humble and sincere men and women who really have a desire to be bible right i received the text from texas from minister went a gentleman who thought he was an apostle repented of his sins and went down in the water in the name of jesus christ was in the water crying like a baby turned his credentials in beautiful man found out he wasn't what he thought he was that takes humility to be ordained a preacher and then hear the word of god and humble yourself never mind title title don't mean nothing you got you you got to live up to that title yes you do and to declare god made you something and god did not takes a lot of humility to surrender and do like the message was last sunday be sanctified lord thank god a lot of folk going to church but they ain't sanctified not only are you to be holy but you must be holy and sanctified now before going further why it comes to mind i want to say happy birthday to my youngest daughter today god bless your heart we thank the lord i pray that in due time god fill you with the holy ghost speaking in tongue now let me remind all the brothers and sisters that are watching them that are here our holy convocation starts thursday of this week our ending year services combined with our men's and women's conference god is bringing us into another year with great accomplishments each year i'm glad there being something that's not stifled not stuck i don't consider it progress just exchanging fellowship services with fellows and nobody come in to walk with the word of god i believe in fellowship on bible order but i won't move the fellowship with the ant that wear toupee that'd be an interesting hat i won't move unless that fellowship is lined up with bible so i'm i'm very focused with this way of holding this thing and the lot of men that i talk to i talk to hundreds of them i listen yeah but when the conversation is over my interest is what did the scripture say because i put the scriptures above everybody and in front of everybody before everybody whatever the word of god said never mind pastor jennings what the scripture says i say enter to that conversation jesus said he that believe on me as the scripture have said so as this year creep out well god is still taking people out with it it's true many of us as lost have lost loved ones and the death angel it ain't time for him to retire yet amen i believe the bible says the last enemy to be destroyed is death i want to greet elder williams this afternoon he caught me this morning hardhead now he's paying a penalty for his hard-hitters don't go shaking your finger at the street at the screen mr williams you know last week in louisiana it was about 80 degrees on saturday but i was raised you better dress the same that's right hard head mr williams now i know he gonna call me hardhead mr williams went out in that weather

carolina one in columbia one in charleston four in raleigh three in detroit six in bronx one in upstate new york and middletown new york three on the island of saint lucia a hundred and eighty-nine in malawi they're in africa over to god i'm telling you the gospel is dropping throughout the continent of africa like a thunderstorm oh yes that's beautiful man preachers and the entire churches are going down in war not just the pastors all the ministers the members everything coming to go down in the water in the name of jesus christ and receiving the holy ghost isn't that a blessing now let me say to all the first churches of the lord jesus christ the world over and to my viewers uh we don't turn nobody away whether you have the covert shot or not all of you are welcome to come to god's house it's a sin to turn a sick person away when they come to god's house you didn't know that it's a sin yeah yeah yeah all right to turn a sick person away when they come to god house jesus came in town and they heard he was in town they ripped the roof off of a house that's true and lower the man through the roof it's your sin hear this now to turn anybody away that's sick if they come to god's house you better not ever turn a person away if they want to come in let them in if they want to be baptized lord take god there's healing in that water there they don't have to have no covert shot to repent and be baptized god said repent god didn't say you got to have the shot god said repent and be baptized [Applause] oh none of the churches bear not ever turn one person away that's right not one because they don't have a shot amen i was in the preaching pool in the pulpit preaching with the virus and god healed me amen i received the email that a man came to one of the churches and i've been blowing up the phone of the branch church i have to investigate it he heard the word of god came to one of the branch temples with his children and was to be baptized and was told he can't come in without a mass and he got to have the shot to be baptized you ain't got to have no mass to come in guard house [Music] when you say something can't be done now you're stepping on the feet of doctrine if you don't have no mass on those shots you will never be turned away and anybody turn you away now you got me to deal with i don't care who you are the bible says i was glad when they said unto me let us go to the house of the lord that's what god put in there and i don't care what calamity come on earth we ain't changing it i made this no branch no preacher no minister better keep better not keep no human that's right i don't care who they are for coming in the guard house not even the nurses unit somebody coming with no mass don't you tell them to leave you ain't got that kind of authority that goes for security somebody coming without a mask you better tell them to leave you ain't got that kind of authority god said one thing and you said another you are go to hell god knows you will god said come ye blessed come we ain't gonna turn nobody away i don't care what kind of illness you have if you're full of leprosy and got corona shirona sharana veronica uh uh megatron optimus prime starscream i don't care what you got megatron nobody from the medical team no preacher no brother sister or security bear not ever turn one person away from guard house or i set you down or put you out this is god's house god says whosoever will let them come that's what god said the calamity they go on in earth don't change that book we ask that you put on a mask we ain't gonna force you we ask you to do it whosoever will i wanna say i suppose they got a fever if they want to stay let them stay here let god heal them whosoever will that bible outweighs everybody you see i got to keep god off my back because god says whosoever will let him come and drink freely ain't that what god said no yo no nurses unit no minister nobody better not ever lay a stipulation upon a person who want to be baptized now you're putting too much authority in your hands that's right and when you put too much authority on your hands you stepped on god's turf and when you step on god turf that's an alarm give me the 23rd chapter of the book of psalms i want everybody to follow me ain't nothing wrong with having rules implemented but those rules better not step on god's turf where you turn somebody away from coming into god's house and your reason is they're sick are you listening follow me in your bible in the book of psalms 23. turn brother mark up turn me ready up turn him up till i hear his echo coming out the speakers that's right in the book of psalms 23. yeah turn them up some more and that verse one yeah turn me up too i want to ruffle the feathers of undercover hebrews all right wonderful the book of psalms 23 everything in the building is sick that's right there ain't nobody in here that's not sick that's true man that ain't talking about covert either i'm talking about sin that's right that's true that's true what am i supposed to do turn you away because you're in sin jesus said i am the way the truth and the life no man come to the father lord take god except by me amen you see the apostle said i said all things in order when i come you turn nobody away if they have a fever of 200 they want to come to god's house tell them to press their weight like the woman with the issue of blood [Applause] are you getting what i'm telling you amen everything must be compliant with the book not contrary to the book listen psalms 23 and at verse 1 the lord is my shepherd the lord is my protector the lord is my guide the lord is my keeper oh yes the lord is my shepherd i shall not i shall not want what does he do he maketh me to lie down in green pasture he make me lie down in green pastures what is green pastures a place of comfort place of comfort and satisfaction green pasture green pasture comfort satisfaction plenty god shepherd people sheep green pastures that which is bountiful plentiful god lead his people where there's plenty of truth being preached we'll take god the word of god is our green pasture that's right no dried up grass here green green pastures you digest this god can hear you why the word of god is being preached god can deliver you while the word of god is being preached amen never turn a person away godhouse i don't care if they so sick they can't hardly breathe if they want to come jesus who is god almighty said whosoever that pushes everybody back ain't nobody else got no say so where he talked whosoever will let him come that's right ain't nothing nobody can do about that whosoever will who said it the boss and that's not me bible says repent and be baptized i can't add a stipulation repent and you got to have a shot to be baptized would i look like a fool i gotta keep it like the bible says even if a person got to break a locus but want to be baptized i'm taking you in there if you got aids and want to be baptized i'm taking you in there if you got syphilis i want to be baptized i'm taking you in there why would i do it or take god because when they pierce him inside out came blood and water and there's healing in that blood glory say god many people came out of the water went in with the condition and left the condition off that's true that blood that was shed glory take god tell them of their condition [Applause] i have to look past the condition i have to look at god i have to look past the condition and look at scripture wonderful nice wonderful no first church of the lord jesus christ no minister no brother no sister bear not ever make a stipulation to anyone who wants to come in guard house because they sick you can't come that's different from what god said god ain't saying you got to have a shot to be baptized god said repent and we're going to keep it just like that that's right why that way keep god wrath away from you and a wise person want to keep god wrath far away from them never mind your personal views and your feelings you know i don't care nothing about that i have to keep it scriptural amen i'm determined to keep it scriptural that's why god bless us so much because i'm determined to keep it scriptural i have no interest and no one personal views or feelings or ideology touching the scriptures don't bring it i'm not interested the moment you come to me i'm interested in what god says that's it that's wonderful thank god that woman had the issue of blood she was pressing through the crowd trying to get a hold of jesus [Applause] hymn of his garment i'll be here and you mean to tell me somebody come in the building with that kind of faith sick and believe god a healer and you keep them out no [Music] security better not do it nurse's unit better not do it if a person got a fever that's a billion high it's true they want to come to godhouse turn them loose imagine me coming in sick and someone tell me you can't come in here or you think you're talking to that's right if an old mother come in frail and shake it she'll tell you i want to get the guard house yes i just just let me give the guard house if i die let me die in god's house [Applause] are you getting what i'm telling you the way society do things and the way god does it it's not the same the way we think and the way god thinks is not the same jesus said whosoever will that god everybody under the sun everybody whosoever will let him come and if he said let them ain't nothing i can do about that that's right let them come amen you never know what god have in store for that man or for that woman that day that's true man amen so true amen the lord the lord is my shepherd it is my protector my keeper my guide i shall not once amen don't have to want for nothing else he may give me they make me lie down and green pastures amen i meant those pastors now you know green pastures you have to get to a point you experience those green bastards i meant those green pastures now they're green frank i'm i'm i'm eating a lot of green pastures [Music] amen digesting a mouthful of scripture [Music] keep it green profitable what else he leadeth me beside the still water wait a minute there's still water and there's troubled water still you see the difference yeah troubled water and the natural use the wind be bolsterous and the water is all over the place waves is tossed in still water meaning he leaves with me besides where there's still water is that a car water represent your troubles yes when the waters in your life is troubled because there's a lot of wind there's a lot of things blowing in your life then god speaks peace be still he calms those things that's beautiful and now the things in your life become as still waters because the power of god bring a calmness in your life you know listen i know from experience god can bring a calmness in your life that's out of the ordinary and it is extremely extraordinary i experienced that in falsehood false prophet amen got over the pulpit and said if gino and sister darling get married i hope you dropped dead he told the folk if you say amen to him i'ma throw you out the church he set me down for a year ask me after that can't you preach what i preached i said i'll preach what the bible says he said being that you want to preach with the bible say i call the chapter in the verse i went through this chapter in verse 81 and god would go the holy ghost with the word he set me down another year in the midst of all that madness god gave me a calmness people was asking me what are you going to do i said ain't going to do nothing i experienced a calmness from god in my teens that i never experienced before until then even now when heathens some years ago rage and thought they can destroy the church i thought they can take my name and blacken it and taint it by using that it was trying everything everyone was telling me why don't you get a lawyer why don't you do this once you do this i say anger waste my time my energy and my money for what god gave me a calmness i didn't even turn my back one thing i decided to do i decided to step out and walk on water with jesus [Applause] saw jesus walking on water he wanted to come out as long as he kept his eyes on jesus he stepped on water and walked but the moment he started looking at the wind and the waves he sunk and cried out to god to help him [Applause] when you take your eyes off guard and start paying so much attention what you're dealing with what you're faced with what this one done to you how long they've done it that become a distraction until you can't see jesus [Applause] hallelujah glory to god i'm under structure you lose focus god is right there [Applause] that will make you focus on how long you've been sick how long you had that pain how long you been dealing with that problem your focus on that morning and focus on god are you listening when peter begin to focus on what was happening the strongness of the wind and the tossing of the waves he starts sinking but as long as he kept his eyes on jesus he walked on water meaning god bless them to be above his circumstances [Applause] things gonna splash in your life all the time but keep jesus focused and ain't nobody going to walk and serve god and everything won't always be peaceful no god didn't design it like that but keep going said god keep the lord focused when they say we wouldn't come out the basement but i kept jesus focused went to briar road and rented an episcopalian recreation center they say we ain't coming out of that but we kept jesus focused frankfort avenue heathens tried to get the government the law to close the doors honestly amen so we can lose it but we kept our eyes on jesus [Applause] when we first announced this campus he does got irate and try to get everything to hinder it but we kept our eyes on jesus this is what i want you to do he said the lord is your shepherd a shepherd is a sheep keeper the lord is the keeper of the church the provider of the church the supplier of the church stop trying to do this on your own that's why we fail and keep failing and keep failing because we talk let god do it but when it's time for something to be done we try to do it don't talk out of one mouth i'ma let god do it that's true and then you keep trying to do it that's right when you let god do it he don't need your help [Music] bible said except the lord build the house hallelujah lord take god except the lord brother house they live in vain that build i know there's some experience next year we would have been passing 38 years and preaching 46 years i have a little bit of experience [Applause] that's a little bit experienced the holy book says what the lord is my shepherd who is your shepherd the lord is my shepherd i shall not i shall not want i don't have to go outside of him to lord shall not want do you see what he says don't have to go outside of him to one because there's only one true provider and that's god that's right when man try to be deeper than the bible broader than the bible you're gonna make a fool out of yourself just stay within the confines of the bible wonderful are you listening amen come on son the lord is my shepherd i shall not once what is it he maketh me to lie down in green pasture yes he leadeth me beside the still water he give me a sense of calmness and peace he restored my soul he restore what he restored my hallelujah my soul for your soul to be restored then your soul [Applause] [Music] some healing is necessary are you expecting for your soul to be restored no fasting hardly no prayer we spend more time on internet and television than fasting and praying combined and when you find yourself doing that you ain't fit to keep complaining about the rut you're in and you do absolutely nothing that's true for the restoration of your soul then you gonna continue to fall apart only thing hold you together is god himself that's it listen glue glue don't come out on its own to make something stick you got to add some type of work to that tube to release the glue you got some work to do to release that power that god have in heaven no fasting no praying and all you do is keep complaining over and over of the condition that you're in what are you doing for your soul to be restored will i come to church daring enough not enough hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah thank you that's not enough oh no that's not enough no praying no fasting how you expect to be built up upon your holy sanctification that's like a person that said i've been baptized in the name of jesus christ but they ain't enough to get you in you got to have the holy ghost speaking in tongues and then you got to strive to live sanctified set apart oh yes for god total usage he restore he restores my soul hey listen when your soul is restored you'll find that happening moreover because many times in life you're gonna find yourself falling apart feeling like you're mentally emotionally spiritually physically dismembered and we're so busy running to people for restoration oh and didn't get mad at him or her because they can't help bible and he said flesh gonna restore your soul he restored he you want your soul restored stop eating watch your soul restore stop drinking want your soul restore bow down your ear bow down your heart before god amen don't wait to always praying in the group get away from everybody [Applause] you have to make this personal why you got a condition a condition that should keep whining about but not doing nothing listen you mean to tell me i keep complaining that the water is running and ain't got cis enough to turn it off i guess keep looking at it complaining then how can i say i really want the water to stop when i won't make an effort to do anything that's true why in the world would you even believe yourself i want to come out of this i want to come out of that yeah you know what it take to come out and yet you won't do it then shut your mouth anybody that wants to be saved will do something about it that's true you that don't have the holy ghost you really want the holy ghost are you seeking the lord i don't mean just wait to come to church in a prayer meeting are you seeking the lord when you're home by yourself do you shut yourself up in your room fall on your knees [Applause] wonderful [Applause] bible says he that hunger and thirst after righteousness glory to god shall be filled the reason why you find people don't they don't hardly ever get on their knees and cry to god about nothing it's because the appetite is not there for the holy ghost to where it should be see just like you that keep oh i can't get out this mental rut i can't get off the spiritual rep do you fast no do you pray barely shut your mouth up then when you know what it takes to come out and you do nothing shut your mouth up that's true man the bible speaks plain he restores my soul he's there to restore you what are you doing to welcome restoration you know a man or a woman that get a vintage car and they want that thing restored they don't just keep standing there looking at it i want you restored you need to be restored i would like your grill to be shining the way it was when you came off the assembly line 38 years ago all that talk you got to do something what you got to do start seeking that's right so you can find a place that specializes in restoration seeking ye shall find thank god until you go to the right place that take every boat dismember your car like a puzzle label everything and make the necessary restoration and in many cases it looked better than it did who would take god when you off the 70 lines 70 years ago when you need restoration you want to be better than you was then you were years ago but you got to be willing to work at it and apply yourself and stop talking you that got the holy ghost how great is your appetite spend two and three and four hours watching one full show and can't even stay on your knees 15 minutes without losing your breath from prayer and if you've been doing the same action two three four five six seven eight yeah you're lying to yourself to say well i'm doing something you ain't doing nothing only time you're doing something will you do it according to the way god said not because you think you're doing something you're not doing nothing till you do it the way god said it until you seek him the way he said it he said if you seek me you'll be found of me he said it i believe it [Music] how are you seeking him [Music] i received the holy ghost at 11 years old [Music] many times i was in my room at 11 years old you love television couldn't wait to see the untouchables used to come on every night couldn't wait to see the untouchables couldn't wait to see bugs bunny daffy duck porky pig couldn't wait to see betty boo couldn't wait to see popeye the cellar man see him and brutus go at it couldn't wait to see it couldn't wait to see ultraman couldn't wait to see marine boy couldn't wait to see prince planning and chinese johnny cipher couldn't wait to see astro boy [Music] when i wanted the holy ghost if in times i would be in my room as a kid crying out to god because as a child i understood priority and my mother and father taught me in order to what and receive the holy ghost you must be hungry for it must be hungry even the false church i came out of that's one thing he had right he would tell you you got to crowd the guard like you needed he would tell you ain't none of you cute so don't get on your knees like thinking you are where is your appetite for god do you long for a husband more do you long for a holy ghost do you long for a wife more than you long for the holy ghost do you long for money more than you long for the holy ghost many of us are not blessed and won't be blessed until we prioritize and god is first [Applause] god is first in my life not my wife not my children not nobody god first he'll never slide down to second are you dealing with them don't take god god is first not job not real estate not investments god's first why wife children husband job money all of that is replaceable but not god anyone think you ain't replaceable use a fool that's true job wife died his children god replaced all of it your husband died god came in place and give him another one it's true there ain't nobody in it only thing you can't replace your soul so where is god at in your life in your venture for him where is he how much do you want them do a scale in your life a hypothetical scale a scale of one or ten how how would you rate your appetite to god and if you hit a ten that still ain't good enough make sure it's past that and if it can't go past the scale or to it break it you're in trouble the bible speaks plain heather hunger and thirst after what's right he that's hungry and thirsty a hungry man and a person that just want to eat they're not the same you can want to eat but you ain't hungry i've been hungry before not because there was no food i fast fast seven days and seven nights not suck a lifesaver or eat a halls or chew gum or one meal no seven days and seven nights being led by the holy ghost on several occasions i was hungry then later on in the years god dealt with me again the fast 12 days 12 nights on several occasions i was hungry so i know what it's like to be hungry and i know what it's like not to be hungry but just gotta want to want to eat a little something it ain't the same that's right now here come jesus say he that hunger and thirst blessed are they listen in the book of matthew chapter five and at verse six yes are they are they which do hunger which do hunger and [Applause] shall be filled hallelujah hallelujah don't worry thank god you don't want your appetite to be the same all the time you want that appetite to increase increase increase why because you're missing something the longer i went without food naturally the greater my appetite was the longer you go without the holy ghost spiritually the greater your appetite should be sure are you listening amen the holy ghost said blessed are they with jesus god said you're blessed if do hunger wait a minute he says what blessed are they which do hunger that's how they wish you hunger and thirst after righteousness if you're not hungry you're not thirsty you're not blessed blessed are there because god spoke plain yeah bless them are they which do you hunger which do have an appetite for and thirst and they thirsty for after righteousness after what's right for they shall be filled he promised it shall be all he wants is for you to have the appetite and he promised to do the rest shall be filled when it's time for prayer in church no one should be sitting reading scriptures time for praying church no one reading scriptures no one should be in the corner having a conversation no instruments should be playing no one should nothing sitting around talking like nobody's praying nothing there's a time for everything all this prayer going around who are you that you would be so disrespectful just sit around and run off at your mouth having a conversation talking about a bunch of foolishness playing instruments as if you got so much holy ghost you can afford to hit music and not get on your knees let everything be quiet and hit your knees no reading the bible with us prayer time no time to discuss scriptures then there's a timeless season for everything under the sun that's true man wonderful close your bibles up trust up running off at your mouth unless you're talking to god time for prayer don't even hang out on the church grounds i don't care who you're talking to if you ain't proposed by six o'clock get to them later i'm gonna answer the marriage it's six o'clock time to pray that's right let him awake you go wait for the holy ghost on your knees and let them wait for your marriage many have won't get where they claim they want to be because they ain't doing nothing pastor jen i thought i heard you say a preacher can't tell the folk they ain't doing nothing i'm telling you if you ain't doing it the way god says it what else are you doing you ain't doing nothing until you do it the way god says it then it counts that's right [Music] that cell phone is such a distraction to keep folks from seeking god like they should how in the world you down on your knees trying to return a text that's a text wait because a brother called you in church and then you went out and said in your old car to talk to some two-legged bum damn white [Music] because some sister you want to talk to call you and you on your knees your phone should be off it's good time you better stop treating god like he's some object some little piece of thing and then you wonder why he won't do something for you look at how you treat him you treat him as lusting god he deserves all the attention lord take god he deserves all praise he deserves that you pray to him like you're hungry [Applause] pray through your pain pray through your headache sometimes you can't pray you get down there and cry well that's all right too the spirit know what's in your heart he'll come and make intercession for you man hallelujah he know what's there that's the problem that's one thing that's missing in these churches hardly no prayer at all the less prayer the more you're vulnerable for the powers of the devil that's so true you should create as i said through the years you want to create a prayerful atmosphere in god's house prayerful atmosphere everything on the knees ringing up heaven heaven just ringing just ringing just crying out to god just reading the quote take off don't worry about what time it is just cry out to god all right listen yes did you hear what he says yeah lest are they which do hunger do you got an appetite and thirst how big is it right your appetite for some girl or for some man or for a confrontation or for money is greater than your appetite for god i won't say well my appetite for god the same way it was five years ago you you impute pitiful that's true that's true you're pitiful [Applause] i would not dare what my appetite for god like it is now to be the same way it was five years ago i want to see some improvement what good is having natural success in my appetite for god is still the same but naturally i'm accomplishing this i'm accomplishing that i'm accomplishing the other thing with to die where's god in the midst of all my success where is he yet if my success is here but my longing for god slipping slipping slipping slipping slipping if my longing for god slip my soul become lost you better hear this hear this god knows this is a warning to you now blessed are they which do hunger and thirst you hungry this is something that been missing in the churches for years true sure oh they're hungry the former choir they're hungry to have music they're hungry to jump hungry to shout hungry for praise and testimony serves but he bless are they which do hunger and service do hung went through after righteousness after what's right for they shall be filled you need the holy ghost some of you that claim you got the holy ghost you better make sure you have it i don't mean making up some betty crocker tongue i don't mean making up some rice crispy tongue you know when i was a kid i couldn't stand rice krispies but if i wanted cereal and that's what mama had in the house you had to put sugar on it that's right and according to the commercial you can hear him snap cracker and pop and i would hear the rice krispies whether i like it or not if i'm hungry enough i'm eating that snack cracker and pop glory to god amen when you really want the holy ghost speaking in tongue even if your knees get tired sit down but keep pulling on heaven back side get tired get back on your knees knees get tired sit on your side sides get tired stand up i'm telling you what i've done when i was seeking the holy ghost man i was in every kind of position you can think of i even laid on my back and crossed my that legs tired i laid on my side that got tired got on my knees that got tired sat on the floor that got tired i start pacing the floor calling on god hallelujah why the position wasn't going to stop god [Applause] when my mind and heart got in line with the way god wanted or where it take off the windows of heaven opened up another language towards a god came pouring out of my mouth when my mind or heart got in line in the sync i prayed thank god the hungry i got [Applause] and when i didn't get it that next night i came back again more hungry [Music] didn't get it the next night came back again more hungry made me think of my younger sister pixie i already see the holy ghost on a tuesday 1974 month of may may 7th pixie got angry with me i mean she got angry with me i wanted to know why would the lord feel me first we were kids yeah when i received the holy ghost that tuesday that ignited our appetite in pixie we always call a bird couldn't wait for thursday to get here church doors was open we went to that where they called the altar the front and we pulled on heaven it's wonderful man holy ghost fell came down on bird kept it speaking in tongues why her appetite changed from tuesday to thursday there was a change of appetite your appetite for god cannot remain the same it must keep climbing keep climbing hallelujah keep climbing you must become hungry and greedy and longing for god [Applause] a hungry man don't sit at the table with manners every man ain't sitting at no table with madness he don't care if he's pinkie or up or down he don't care about silverware that's true a hungry man no oh man i got food he probably won't even talk you be talking he's down there that's right you got he's asking for more and his mouth is full got more chicken that's right that's true he don't care if he looks like an animal no he don't care if he look like a dog oh he knows their satisfaction and now he's getting what he want how bad do you want the lord [Applause] [Music] compare your pursuit in career in dollars and promotion in relationships in marriage how you pursue some girl or some boy compare all things you pursued with your pursuit of god if anything outweigh your pursuit of god don't insult yourself saying you're doing it right right that's right you can stay on the phone for five hours and talk about nothing to a girl nothing to a boy and yet you can't get on your knees in your room and talk to god for five hours without falling asleep the first 10 minutes that's true that's right go in your secret place the lord is coming repenting and being baptized in the name of jesus christ is good but jesus said you must be born of the water and of the spirit you must have the holy ghost to be in the body of christ the word of god said you're baptized by one spirit into one body so at 11 years old i received the holy ghost speaking in dumb my appetite was off the chart even i was in a false church but one teaching that he had we was not allowed to be all that instrument playing why why you down there praying no no no no no singing no not in prayer you just sitting around while praying going on yarning taking naps who are you that's right it's true who are you get on your knees old school there wasn't they didn't even have carpet or pillows they was on wooden splendid dusty floors pulling on heaven now we're too fashionable to kneel we're too busy worrying about our we doing our knees lord jesus jesus lord jesus jesus lord jesus jesus jesus jesus lord jesus jesus lord jesus jesus some put hand chickens and napkins on the floor your clothes ain't that good your food all right thank god i wouldn't care for a run running your stocking from the tip of your toe all the way up until your stockings fall apart when you want the whole negotiation none of that no mind that's right jesus breathed on them and said receive you the holy ghost come on back to the way god happened our priorities is messed up your natural accomplishments is all right but there's none good but one and that one is god [Applause] my mother and father instilled that in me god is first god and i know i'm blessed today spiritually and natural because i have put god first and never allow him to slide down second and never will [Applause] and my life god don't come second to nobody for god to come second something got to step in and be more important than him to me i ain't meant that that's right i ain't gonna say i ain't meant that yet it don't exist before me and my wife got married i stepped out of her life so she can receive the holy ghost i knew i was in her way he was in our teens i was in her way and knew it and told her i said i'm not going to call you not coming to the house no more see you in church short conversation why i want to receive the holy ghost he said would you fast with me i said how many days she said three and three nights i said yes i will fall holy ghost was a top priority you sit on some devilish phone three and four or five hours wake up through the night three o'clock four o'clock in the morning calling the devil well i can't sleep get on your knees then get on your knees then where's your hunger for god at if you have no hunger for god you're lost because the holy ghost has blessed us yes or they which do hunger and thirst oh yes you ain't got no appetite you ain't blessed last are they blessed are they which do you talk about i'm a blessed man i knew you today yes i am i know who my god is thank god where all my blessings come from that's beautiful someone said pastor jennings is it hard to keep god first that depends upon how much you love him you know when you love something and your love is right you ain't got the struggle to keep that thing first you know why you love it more than anything [Applause] that doesn't mean you ain't gonna slip make mistakes say they don't mean that but when you love god above everything you don't let nothing take the place or replace the emotion that you have towards god with something else that's wonderful man good teaching i mean you young brothers ain't married and yet that girl got you on the phone more than you are on your knees some of you suckers ain't married but you're more eager to go out to dinner with satan than you are to get on your knees you look at oh this may be my chance chance to do what get married and be separated because they don't want to hear instructions if you put god first god to bless your marriage ain't ain't no one can convince me of other wives god bless you to be upon your marriage your children will be blessed because of the parents putting god first blessing that's what's when the bible talking about cup running over that mean you're feeling something in that cup and then but yet the salsa get the water also because the salsa is under that cup and then the cup run over it hit the saucer and hit the tank door many are blessed today because of somebody else that's true so true holy ghost said joseph master house was blessed because of joseph joseph master was wicked but joseph master house was blessed because of joseph when your cup run over the blessings that fall in that cup they start rolling over falling a salsa started rolling over fall on the table then other things nearby getting wet [Applause] follow the story take off [Applause] [Applause] start spilling on others [Applause] and yet the blessing that fall on them they don't deserve it but it's a result of god blessing somebody else hallelujah [Applause] get a blessing and you didn't even ask for it you wasn't even looking for it but it's the after effect that god did for somebody else hallelujah girls are you doing take off you gotta ask yourself where did this come from i didn't pray for this that's right the top run over it's the after effect that god bless somebody else and then you benefit from god somebody else is blessings [Applause] blessed be god bless are they are they let's do hunger and thirst they're honda and third halloween after righteousness after righteousness after righteousness for they shall be filled shall be [Applause] ask god to increase your appetite don't be so lazy ask god to increase your appetite [Applause] help god you want your appetite to get stronger every day [Applause] every day [Applause] [Music] [Applause] beautiful i believe that you can sit around and complain about your circumstances all right what does that mean hallelujah what you're going to do about me thank you hallelujah hallelujah let's talk about it so what hallelujah if you don't already talk why don't you talk to god talk to god hallelujah hallelujah put god first [Music] [Applause] but it's not the same because i don't hear a voice back [Music] if i talk to god [Music] if i don't hear a voice that's all right with me i just want to see some works i want to feel [Applause] god moving let me talk to him and let him work let me pray to him but let god many of us are in the condition that we're in in the same lazy slump and not doing absolutely nothing until you do it god's way that's right you ain't doing nothing where's your appetite [Music] how strong is it hallelujah [Music] how great is your thirst [Music] hallelujah you ain't got to wait till six o'clock hallelujah 5 30 or 5 o'clock when prayers start down here hallelujah when the break is over after the when the break is on you can come down here anytime even if the musicians if the musicians are playing the instrument the moment they see one person come down and hit their knees that music automatically gotta shut down got to shut down automatically why out of respect that somebody is pulling on heaven [Applause] are you getting what i'm telling you i want to pull us all back to the old landmark all right thank god for the way church used to be not this modern stuff i'm on back the bible to the way church was that's it you can't be a strong church with no prayer you can't be a strong people and no prayer the bible says let the storm bear the infirmities of the week how can a strong do anything and you ain't prayerful you will never even be strong no prayer [Music] speaking in tongue and god quickening my body ain't enough for me i don't want to ever lose my appetite if i feel my appetite going down then some other appetite is going to come up yes it is if my appetite for god started decreasing then the appetite for something else going to start increasing and if the appetite for something else surpass my appetite for god i'm in spiritual trouble god knows because if my appetite for god go down and my appetite for something else go up i'm gonna pursue that thing or things more than god are you listening to the old man amen how hungry are you are you listening to what i'm telling you go back to the 23rd psalm back in the book of psalms 23 and that are you getting this williams already god i want to peel you up williams while you're watching we will take god and give you inheritance among

acts chapter 2 and verse 38 the apostle peter stood up with the eleven on the day of pentecost declared to them then peter said to them repents you that's on social media remember what i tell you

rising of the sun to the going down thereof you that are here it's time for you to give your life to god ain't no need to go from one year to the other still a fool that's right pleasing the devil drinking and clubbing and acting like a fool and hanging with these false prophets who's just playing with your soul with no fear no fear the holy ghost says what in the book of acts chapter 2 and then verse 38 why is it then peter said unto them repent be sorry about your wrong and be baptized be sorry about your wrong who everybody that's right when you're sorry and convicted in your heart

disobedience from disobeying god you inherited his transgression and now you begin to grow up and learn right from wrong and chose wrong over right you became a sinner so the bible says repent not repent for the sin you inherited you got to repent for the sins you've done godless sorrow workers repentance unto life that repentance you got to feel remorse from your heart not just run and get baptized because you have a good feeling that day no you have to be convicted in your heart and go down in the water in the name of jesus christ for what for the remission of sins you get your sin
