How to Receive the Presence of God Daily

amen i um while you're standing to your feet just all week long i've been asking god to give me a way to articulate my experience and i want us to start this morning i want you to think about this as i i read it i believe that the presence of god uh is not to be trained by us but we're to be trained by him because god can show up and do something in the life of a person and it only takes three seconds of what they've been trying to do for a whole lifetime amen but what he said to me he said my presence is always near it's always near everybody but i'm not going to ever just come in and force myself on anybody i have to be received i have to be received and rather than just you know teaching principles on this i want to specifically take the time to show this congregation how to accept his presence every day how to receive his presence every day he's near he you might be going through hell [Music] two feet away from him and have not yet received him his presence has to be received his presence is here right now but it shouldn't take a song to get it stirred up in you but there's nothing wrong with a song just to be able to receive him now somebody else said pastor you're going to cry today i don't know because i've learned how i'm learning how to receive him and i learn how to receive him every day because how in the world can i think i got anything on god [Music] and he's going to begin to show you if you will carry his flames if you'll carry his presence and just show up with him he gonna show out because listen god didn't call us to be uh down the stream christians he called us to be right at the spout of where it all comes from amen and i'm just believing that something so amazing will happen to you not because of you not because of me because the day you received his presence and his presence walked up in there and did something so amazing in your life so i've been working on articulating what i've experienced i didn't talk to you about the fullness of that experience uh i knew one thing going through the experience i knew i had a praying mama who would intercede and would call and call things that be not as though they were my mama know my mama know if i got a toy a pain or something like i'd be around i could be around another part of where my mama knows what's going on that's that's an intercessor and she has a gift of of discernment which means she can see devils and angels and all that kind of stuff i'm covered good but i got to figure out how to articulate this because what happens when you have god you have enough so why don't we keep trying to go get some mo when we already got all we need you follow me now listen to this and and i'll get started he said this is so good god's presence is real full of love and completely transformational god's presence is completely transformational something's happened in me that i can't explain [Music] but it's transformed me and i'm believing that the presence of god every time not just when we come to church i that's the one thing i don't want to happen i don't want to think i don't want you to think you got to be in this building to get a hold of his presence his presence is transformational which means that he can do stuff in you that you've been trying to change for a long time his presence is transformational it takes what was broken and it brings healing so if there's anything broken in your life today whether you're on the stream or here the presence of god is going to take what's broken and it's going to bring healing i can't do that nor can i promise you that nor can there's nor is there a trick for it but when you invite the presence of the lord on the inside of you whatever is broken is gonna be healed amen it takes what was lost and guides us to our rightful place in the father it satisfies the weary brings light to the darkness and pours out the refreshing rain of god's love on the driest deepest parts of our soul hallelujah lift your hands up and receive the presence of the lord in this place praise the lord yeah anytime news is just we're going to float again and and sometimes we just need to you know just step away from what we got programmed next go ahead and receive his presence today go ahead and and you know his presence he's ready to do some great things in your life he's ready to do some awesome things in your life he just needs an invitation into it welcome holy spirit [Music] welcome holy spirit we welcome the presence of the living god into our lives today we welcome the presence of the living god on our souls today we welcome the presence of the living god on our physical bodies today we welcome the presence of the holy spirit on everything that hurts and everything that needs to change holy spirit we yield to you hallelujah we cast out every plan that we woke up with this morning and we submitted all to you all to jesus i surrender oh we receive your presence today right now we receive your presence today right now in the name of jesus we come before you lord as as yielded vessels open to whatever you want to do all we know is whatever needs to be done you can do it so go ahead lord go ahead and say go ahead i will exalt thee i will exalt me no matter how i feel i will i will exalt thee no matter what i've gone through i will exalt thee no matter what the news was that's all i'm trying to get you to do before i preach a sermon is i'm trying to get you to just say holy spirit i welcome you i welcome you my hiding place my strong refuge hallelujah i will exalt thee no matter what i feel like i will exalt the oh god biryandori we snatch away all the religion associated with this and we just come as yielded people yielded vessels that trust you yielded people that know that you can do some amazing things in our lives things that we've been trying to get done hallelujah we believe it's done right now by faith in the name of the lord jesus christ we're well and blast [Applause] my hiding place my safe refuge my safe refuge my safe refuge he's a refuge in a time of trouble i don't know what situation some of you guys showed up with but because you've just invited the presence of god you've received the presence into your life you are carrying that presence i have no idea of the greatness of what the holy spirit is going to do in this place today i have no idea how he's going to make a difference while you're seated today in the midst of the word but one thing i do know that the devil cannot win in anything concerning you today in the name of jesus christ realized [Music] take all your worries cast them away there's nothing noble about worrying about something cast it on him he'll take care of it cast it on him he'll take care of it every worry cast it on him he'll take care of it in one scoop god will disconnect you from everything that's hurt you everything that's bothered you the presence of the heart is ready to be strong in your life hallelujah hallelujah now at different times throughout the service we'll we'll stop and and and just acknowledge his presence my job is to teach you how to walk in it let me show you what we're trying to do we're trying to show you how to get immersed in this presence just like you would jump in a pool and be totally covered by water what happens when you get out of the pool everything you touch is wet why because you're wet y'all don't hear what i'm saying it is now time for us to show up and when we walk in the room something happened somebody recognized that something just changed the atmosphere i never thought about this but when you get out of the pool when you step that's wet that's wet until you get to the top of the draw off everything you touch that's what everything wet because you've been immersed in in dirty you've been immersed that's that's what i'm trying to get you to see you don't have to be no preacher in the pulpit to do this all you have to do is welcome the presence of god into your life hallelujah and i believe hallelujah when you touch your marriage is wet when you touch your finances is wet when you touch your children it's wet that everything around you will be will be impacted by where you've been spending your time come on somebody worship god in this place [Applause] do i presume to teach the holy spirit how is it that i can talk to him about two three things and say all right now you wait he'll let me go and do my thing how is it that that can happen it can't all god needs us to do watch this is to get out of his way [Music] somebody shout have your way holy spirit have your way while you are in this building today the holy spirit is going to be working on family members and children and situations and circumstances and you'll know it was not by your might not by your power not cause you know so much about god not not cause you pray five hours this morning glory be to god it's because you just simply welcome welcomed his presence into your life in jesus name now would you put your hands together and give him a big applause [Music] hallelujah hallelujah are you ready to get in the word of god again today amen all right you can you can be seated let's do that let's uh you know i spent i spent uh all last week on daniel 11 32 if uh if you need any more on that just ask the holy ghost he'll get you some more on that all right i'd like to pick up with something in second peter chapter 1 [Music] verses 1 through 3. there's an intimate knowing of god that every believer has to walk in and when you walk in that intimate knowing of god would you would would you plea would you please sit down see that's not god because yet that's rude and if it was the holy spirit it wouldn't be rube but we love her anyway and we we we thank we thank god for who he is but that's what happens when you talk about the presence of god coming into place the enemy the enemy wants to go ahead and he wants to try to distract and she's not a distraction at all she just needs to know more praise the lord and so i'm believing that the holy ghost gets on her and remove every burden and destroy every yoke in her life and to let the devil know that sent her here it didn't work it didn't work so go on honey gonna find you another church we love you and we thank god for you but see that's what happens when you operate in the presence of the holy spirit those devils start getting nervous they start getting nervous because you walk away from yourself and you start yielding to the holy spirit that is demonic influence right there she don't know that she's under the influence of the demonic person that's right she's on the demonic see we being nice i got security that can get out in two seconds but she don't know no better i want you to see it this is a sign of it this is what happens demons start showing up and when demons start showing up you ought to start shouting and rejoicing because of the presence of the lord didn't bother me didn't bother me a bit you just helped me out with my sermon a little show-and-tell amen it wasn't god so you know it can't be nobody else left it wasn't god if it was god you would have been able to give a word of property and stand there bo you don't give a word and on your way out cause you scared him about to come down there and slap that demon at you but we got better things to deal with today i kind of want to go back there run and get it real quick and bring her back in here and show you what happens when you cast demons out in the name of jesus but when the presence of the holy spirit comes over you you be prepared for that now when the presence of the holy spirit calls you they just start saying anything you don't make no sense they just start opening their mouth up anything to distract that's what this day is about distract you from the real purpose that i mean the the worst thing that could have happened to hell is that i experienced what i experienced and start teaching you how to walk in the presence of the holy spirit isn't that something in there something pandemic going on you could have chose any church in the city and you chose this one or it's going to get deeper around here amen now every one of them ain't gonna happen like that now sometimes i mean that you know we'll do that other time we're gonna say bring them up here we're gonna cast that devil out of them you should you should've asked before you walked in here we ain't letting you out till we get you free amen now there's an intimate knowing of god [Music] and it goes beyond a sermon a song a dance and a shout look at this scripture second peter chapter one verses one through three simon peter a servant and an apostle of jesus christ to them that have obtained light precious faith with us through the righteousness of god and savior jesus christ i notice what peter was saying he was a servant of the and and an apostle of jesus christ to them that have obtained what like precious faith with us through the righteousness of god and our savior jesus christ verse two now watch this grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge and the knowing of god now why did i say knowledge and knowing because there's no way you're going to read about him gain knowledge about him and not eventually know him so you don't really know people without at least getting some knowledge about them it starts somewhere you know so he says what happens is as you begin to get the knowledge and the knowing [Music] say that say knowledge and knowing as you begin to get the knowledge and knowing of god and of jesus christ he says here's what you need to be expecting multiplied peace and multiplied grace so here's what's going to happen as you begin to develop this intimacy with god unmerited favor is going to be multiplied under you in other words the more you come to know him the more you're going to find yourself experiencing things that you didn't deserve the more you come to know him the more this undeserved love begins to manifest itself in your life you won't be able to go and explain exactly how it happened except i just been learning about him and knowing him and and it looks like favor has increased in my life now you know you can't do nothing to earn favor or wouldn't be favor but i prophesy over this congregation here and over the stream get ready for multiplication of grace and peace grace and peace say grace and peace who glory to god do you know peace is a blessing and the devil is going to do everything he can well he's already been doing it that's what this whole thing's about he's been doing everything to rob you of your peace you can't hardly turn the news on because it's it's it's infested with with peace robbers it do you good to go to that old tv station that played a more andy griffith reruns that give you more peace than some of the present stuff they planned today satan is after your peace the peace that comes from god is the security that you need in the midst of turmoil hell freaks out when peace and grace is being multiplied but you can't you can't multiply that by your own means it comes through the knowledge and knowing of jesus christ that's why now it's important for us not to just teach a sermon and you take notes now it's important for you to have a daily encounter with the presence of god and i'ma tell you get ready for it it won't last long see you gotta understand the devil's like a uh the doctor says a roaring lion his teeth have been pulled he has no claws he says he he roars as as a roaring lion didn't say he was don't let the roar put fear in you i'm already telling you and i believe that example was for us today i'm already telling you your decision to be a carrier of the presence of god will attract the fear of the devil we mean the fear of the devil don't you know the devil's scared of you you got the presence of god all you need to let it all you need to let him know look i got the presence of god you don't know you don't want none of this now and then you don't want none of this now all right let's go to this next verse you got this one got it ii peter uh let's do verse three let me i forgot verse three verse three he says he does this according as his devi as his divine power hath given unto us what all things that pertain unto what life and what through the look of there through the knowledge and the knowing of him that has called us to glory he's called us that knowledge and knowing of him calls us to glory and it calls us to virtue which means there be supernatural things taking place in your life that you are not going to be responsible for making happen it's going to come because of a clear decision you made to know him and to get the knowledge about him amen now second peter chapter 3 and verse 18. ii peter chapter 3 and verse 18. so awesome now watch this but grow in grace what you can grow in this unmerited favor you can grow in this operation of love grow in grace one of the ways to do that is when you get to know him to such a point you're depending on him all the time sometimes throughout the day one of the ways to engage in the presence of god is to just pause in the midst of an impossible situation and say lord i trust you go ahead and say that right now say lord i depend on you he said grow in grace and and notice what's attached to growing in grace and in the knowledge and the knowing see we're not going to be wasting our time here this month as we learn about walking in this intimacy in the knowledge and the knowing of our lord and savior jesus christ to him to him be glory both now and forever i tell you something something got turned on last week and i don't know about you but i ain't trying to find the on off switch grow in grace say out loud grow in grace so every time you're going to start noticing every time there's a talk about um growing in the knowledge of the lord jesus christ and getting to know him you're going to start seeing grace and peace grace and peace will be multiplied because you're now growing in the presence of god and your relationship with god you you're not just don't have knowledge of him only you know him you know a lot of christians who have knowledge of him they know what this bible verse say they know what that bible says but do they know him because it's going to come upon everybody's life that he's going to do something that you won't be able to explain and i don't want to serve a god where i can logically explain everything he does i want a god that shows up and does some stuff sometimes and i have no idea how he did it i'm just glad he did now seriously do you think you are really qualified to logically explain everything that god does in your life because if you think you are get ready honey he's getting ready to do something that you will not be able to logically explain i want to serve a god that i can't logically explain i want to serve a god where it's all right that i don't know what you did and how you did it i want to serve a god that showed up with no announcement but just showed up because i wanted to be a carrier of his presence and none of my knowledge in intellect can explain anything i saw some stuff i still can't explain and it's okay because something happened to me what i can't articulate it yet but i ain't never gonna be the same hallelujah all i know because of what i carry it is a threat to every demon force on the planet and you carry the same thing i am not limited to carry this you have made your mind up that you are a carrier of his flames hallelujah you are carrier of his presence hallelujah and the more you grow in his presence the more you're gonna grow in grace and peace grace and peace you know what that means that means you can live life and not have to worry about whatever because you got the lord of whatever and because he lives in you and you carry him there will be times that you will pray and before you can even pray it god has already done it why just so he can just blow your mind every now and then to let you know i am the god of abraham isaac and jacob i am still god your seminary schools have not outdone me i know more than what they think they know see some people know more than what they understand i don't want to know more than what i understand i just want to know him [Applause] hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah y'all ready man these are the last days these are the last days people talking about it's over with and the church oh no no no no god's getting ready to raise up a mighty armory of a people who who believe him and trust him oh no no no no no no do you think god just gonna sit back and let the devil get away with what he did what he been doing no no no no he got to deal with the intercessors he got to deal with the name of jesus he's got to deal with the word of god he's got to deal with those who carry his flame and release his fire he's got to deal with those who know their god and they that know their god will do exploits and i don't know about y'all but i'm ready to go [Applause] oh jesus oh jesus i know him hallelujah i spent years learning about him and sometimes all the knowledge i had about him stopped me from knowing him but i know him i i sense him [Music] i sense him in this place right now i i i sense him number one because he came with me this morning but i sense the number two because i feel like you bought him with you too hi little boy hey hallelujah and i sense healing going over this place right now said it about somebody just felt something in your body hallelujah and you thought it was a chill that was the hand of god going up and down that thing i'm telling you we're in the presence of the holy ghost now it's not going to be like we saw in past because last week we closed the circus and we got rid of all the clowns in the house been playing church in a moment it's real and you don't believe me go home and spend some time with him he'll touch you right where you are all by yourself he'll take a man ain't never cried before in his life and he'll touch you on the inside of you and all of a sudden you'll be weeping and don't know how to turn it off and how to stop it because his presence brings everything you'll ever need you will never be in need as long as you carry his presence [Applause] now to some well it just becomes another sunday that's another word because they hadn't tapped in yet they're still trying to understand god from here instead of let god do what he want to do here you got to let him in your heart he right there by you but you got to receive him you got to receive him when you don't want to you got let me back up cause you got to want to because you got a you're a free moral agent you see but you got to receive him when you don't feel like it it's not when i feel happy that i receive him it's when i don't know which way to turn [Music] it's when i'm seeing stuff with these eyes that you're not supposed to see with these eyes it's when i'm hearing things with these ears and i'm trying to figure out what's going on it's when i'm standing back and i'm looking at the whole thing take place and i'm trying to figure out what's happening it's when demons try their best to take me out and attack me but they move with caution because they know me oh glory to god let me tell you something let me tell you something every demon ought to know you every demon ought to walk up to you and call you by your name hallelujah it can it's gonna get so serious up around here oh my goodness no motive play church god gonna give us show and tell after show and tell not to show and tell until you are convinced that he is god in the building outside the building at your house on your job in your front door at your back door but this ain't no like church church playing game you got to walk with him just like i got to walk with him and i'm trying to show you how amen glory be to god i you know sometimes people use emotions i ain't got nothing to say nothing about nobody they do the best they can but when you know him you don't have to use things to try to manufacture his presence because sometimes his presence is smooth and cool don't don't mistake people don't judge people because they ain't moving like you sometimes they just sitting down bathing in this presence glory to god sometimes they're just sitting there soaking in his presence they're not saying hallelujah they're not shaking their hands but you know they're sitting there and see the president's the presence of something they're sitting there soaking in the presence and oh you have to catch it now because they're not doing that thing that you learn to do at your church a lot of that stuff you learn to do praise god i ask god to help me to unlearn some stuff i don't want to be caught up in the traditions of men and then and then label the holy spirit based on religion i want to know you to the point that you can whisper something and i can hear it and know that it's done hallelujah y'all better get ready you better get ready the stuff that some of you been trying for the last i heard it five years god's gonna settle it in two months if if you stop presuming that you know more than he do all right lord all right come on and go with me now and then i'm gonna go on the dude no no no no you don't want to take him to the door and leave him here let him go in there with you yeah but i have a tendency when the holy ghost comes in that that that you know i can't control myself you've been lied to you can control yourself the spirit of prophet is subject to the prophet see that's that tradition coming in telling you something that's not true and that's why we got to undo all that some of y'all have never seen demons come out of people that's that's what i want to show you that so it's real okay and then they'll go back and try to get one stronger than the one that came out because if we don't hurry up and fill that house with god then something else is going to come in and then some of y'all carrying a little demon right now and you don't even know it but we we're gonna we we're gonna make sure you get clean for this old with hallelujah that's that little that's a bubonic voice just saying little stupid stuff to you right now and you're trying to keep it quiet it'll come out in a minute after a while cause i'm believing that the presence of god is gonna drive it out look at y'all scared you mean how can you be scared when you have the presence of the holy ghost hallelujah you getting ready to find out about this unseen realm that you've not seen because even the unseen world knows that things are coming to the end and the church is not going to be on the sidelines playing circuses no we're going to be right slap dab in the middle of it somebody said does it mean we come to be i'm not talking about when you come to the building a lot of this stuff's going to happen where you at you might go on vacation next week and have an encounter on the beach somebody might come around you and say ah you say hey hey in the name of jesus is lucille free right now and y'all have a y'all have an encounter on a beacon since the water right there might as well gone baptized on right now in the name of the father the son the holy ghost which is none other than the name of jesus some of y'all might have it at the gas station as you fill in your car and god says go over there and give that person a tank of gas and something supernatural happened and they fell out under the power of god right under right under the punk praise the lord and the presence of the lord met you at the gas station who do we think we are trying to determine where god ought to meet us and where god are not to meet us i'm telling you he's ready to go with you wherever you go not just on sunday morning and not just in the dawn your god is real you remember that old song yes i can feel him in my soul hallelujah hallelujah somebody said what's going on with him today oh we ready we we we're preparing for the showdown your attitude to what the devil will be i'll be your huckabee come on you want something to me you want something of me what what showdown showdown i don't put up with this and i don't put up with that and i didn't carry this and i've been worried about that and i've been heavy over this and i've been trying to figure out where that money gonna come from oh i've been hurt from that i hadn't been able to cover from this for 30 40 years oh no no no no no no all of this is over somebody shout is over oh y'all since the holy ghost in here don't you y'all sense the holy ghost in here huh flip your hands up and say thank you holy spirit i receive you thank you holy spirit i receive you thank you holy spirit i receive you put your hands down i'm looking for another show-and-tell i ain't letting you out if you show up you stuck hey [Applause] all right now watch this look at this now go to john 1. verse 1 and verse 14. john 1 verse 1 and and verse 14. glory be to god hallelujah [Music] i'm praying that people meet the real god i don't want them to die in religion die playing church not thinking they are knowing it and don't even know who god is most powerful thing we can do is pray you know why jesus got up and prayed every morning now if jesus got up great a bible says the great time before day to pray are you glad you feel we don't need to do that jesus got up and pray before we did anything i i think he got up and had fellowship with the holy spirit i think he got up and got focused in on what was going on i don't think it's like what we do i don't i didn't i don't think he really got up loud i don't think he did all that i i think focus is the key because i now understand that this is the greatest way for the devil to destroy and attack your vision and your assignment see what the devil will do is god gives you that one vision what he'll do to try to mess up that vision god gave you is to give you another vision division two visions or three or four what are you trying to do take your focus away from the one that god gave you and it's gonna require you getting up every day re-calibrating and re-focusing on what it is what you're supposed to do and who you are and all that kind of stuff other than that you're gonna open yourself up to a whole bunch of tomfoolery silly stuff and miss out on who the real god is thank you lord jesus all is well all is well oh my goodness all is well if i see some of y'all on the side of the street handling some stuff i'd pull over on the side and kind of help you out a little bit someone said that pastor dalton and what they doing we're handling some stuff next thing you have a three-four world chain your neighbor by two world changes but world changes everywhere i bump into them everywhere i go that devil trembling right now world change they don't even know where a world changer jump out in the middle of a meat out and meet you on a cereal aisle and before you know it when you get on the sauce aisle that person has been delivered set free and praying in the holy ghost that's the kind of church i'm talking about [Applause] look at this he said in the beginning was the what word now the word was in the beginning he said the word was what with god and he said the word was what but in the beginning was the what so however you begin whatever you begin make sure you begin with the word why would you begin with the word because the word is god i said the word is god don't get spooky and try to do stuff outside the word the word is god now look at verse 14 and the word was made flesh and dwelt amongst them and we beheld watch this his glory the glory as of the only begotten of the father full of grace and truth look what he said he said this word that you began whatever you're going to start with this word is eventually going to be manifested this word is eventually going to be made flesh this word eventually you're gonna behold the glory of that word that you've been holding it on to satan does not want us to get the word he does not want us to walk to know the word he just wants to do spooky stuff and make it look like it's super spiritual it's the word [Applause] don't get spooky puking with people don't come up to people acting spooky oh i feel the lord saying to me what happened in the bible you're coming up doing all spooky stuff to me the lord wants me to rub my hands all over your face in this day and time you better back up devil better rub your own face the holy ghost told me to come and hug you you you better back up you better get some money to get some information you ain't got to get deep like that ain't nowhere in the bible that said you have to hug somebody when you come to church and say that you have to hug somebody when you see him in public somewhere i see people i see people in public all the time and this was before the pandemic i ain't going hugging everybody i saw where they been or where they coming from you got to be careful not to invent these religious these religious and then try to use it to convict other people to doing something that you want done in the name of some kind of fable you came up with and then assigned a scripture to it stop you can't walk in this deep spiritual walk i'm talking about playing games ah the holy ghost is on me and then you go slap somebody ain't nothing happened they've been hurt in that in that area where you slapped them for the last five years no burden was removed no yoke was destroyed and you you was a devil just showed up slapping people with a fable god wants us to to have fellowship with him enjoy life and enjoy one another that's what he's not trying to get you to be deep 24 7. hey how you doing i am in the presence right now hold on hold on what god damn god wants you to enjoy life that's why he wants you to to know him so he can show you how to enjoy life and so he can show you how to enjoy one another but the church has put so many fables in it that not even jesus understand when he come to some churches what are they doing oh the lord said that he said i ain't say that ain't never said that cause they don't know about him and they don't know him but you know him what do i say for you who are with him and he shall be in you and you know it and we got to help each other out quit sitting there just tolerating all them fables and all that junky stuff people doing and stay out of church gossip what's happening somewhere inside the church they ain't done your business that's why you became a member it ain't none of your business who doing what how doing well who got in trouble who wouldn't it ain't on your business your job and when you hear something lord i thank you i send the presents that way right now lord take care of me y'all better stop jesus coming jesus is coming he's coming sooner than you think sooner than i think watch what get ready to happen this winter i already know i saw it watch what get ready to happen you talking about people running to god but we're going to be ready i want them to run i ain't saying back time about what you're running for god now be burned in the name of jesus see that ain't even god that ain't god god ain't saying no be burned in the name of jesus to hell with all y'all in the name of jesus how you like me now because the key proof of whether or not you carry god is how you treat people that's the key can we see the love of god operating in your life upon somebody else's life that's the key yeah that's the key [Applause] oh i sense his presence oh something good is going to happen to you amen all right now i know i had my glasses up here all right now now watch this now think about this in the beginning it was a word the word was with god the word was god that saying word do you know when you when you open the bible and study it you're right there in the presence you ever done that come home tired and just sat down and got in the word for a minute and all of a sudden everything started changing the notice the first thing that came when you got in the word peace and if you stay with it grace will be multiplied that's you get in the presence of the word you get in the presence of the word when you open that written word up you're in the presence of the word the word was with god the word was god and also he said this word will display the its glory you'll see the glory you know what it means when when you see the glory see we've gotten so fablized with that ooh the glory what does that mean it's manifestation it's manifested word when you're walking in the presence of god and learning how to live and abide in the presence of god you're gonna see manifested word some of it you asked for some of it you didn't ask for some of it god did it just to do it he wants to share his glory with us he wants to share his glory with us what has taken some like i said before 20 years to do something those of us who will learn how to walk in the manifestation of the of the presence of god will also walk in the manifestations of his glory it'll be manifested and sometimes people ask you wha whoa whoa how did you get that to happen man i've just been enjoying jesus i just gotta be honest with you i've just been enjoying jesus and stuff been happening but now what happens so now they're gonna want to enjoy jesus like you enjoy jesus and their motivation is so stuff can happen that's not your motivation you're not enjoying jesus to get stuff to happen you're enjoying jesus because you enjoy jesus and your motivation is jesus but a lot of people they have the wrong motivation they see what happened to somebody else you remember the story about the sons of skiva the seven sons of skip i believe they came up these there was professional exorcists and these people were demon possessed and uh they decided they're gonna come in they're gonna get paid and and they came in they said to the the people who were possessed with demons they said we command you we adjure you and command you to come out by uh paul and the jesus that paul knew them demons stopped like er they said wait a minute paul we know and all demons say oh yeah we know paul then they said jesus we know they say oh yeah yeah i do but then they looked at them and they said well but uh who who are you now the worst thing that can happen to you is you're in the middle of casting the devil out and the devil stopped and they say who are you [Music] and i believe the bible says that those demons stripped them the professional experts stripped their clothes off of them and ran them out you know that's got to be sad they're coming up they're trying to cast the devil out and the devil doesn't cast them out that's not what happened their motivation was the professionalism that they could turn this into a profession and get the results of a paul and a jesus don't let something or somebody spoil and pervert your motive always ask yourself why do you do what you do why are you here today why do you want the presence of god in your life is the sum total of it is to fulfill your definition of success and his definition of success is so much greater than yours no when you start experiencing christ none of that matters and yet all of it matters to god it's like you're not even you're not it's like i ain't seeking nothing but you [Music] you know what god's saying and i ain't seeking nobody but you i want you i want you i want to bless you i want it i want wanna touch you i wanna heal you i wanna deliver you i wanna i want your dreams to be manifested i want you to be happy think about that's the god you up here trying to make him do all of that and he wanna do all that already the bible says acknowledge him in all thy ways what does that mean put him first place and he'll direct your path he says i know directions to everything you ever wanted in life can you please put yourself aside and let me be your god that's what this is about this isn't about playing church i used to wonder if i preach like this everybody's going to leave the church and we're going to have a bunch of emphasis ain't got to wonder no more because i spent a year and a half preaching the empty seats ain't scattered under emphasis no more ain't get up no more if you stand up here this morning god bless your souls but it don't scare me why none of that's my motivation i ain't counting seats that ain't my motivation i ain't counting that ain't my motivation my motivation is i got a certain amount of time left and i got to fulfill that time by doing exactly what god tell me to do and what god told me to preach to you so we can be so we can be carriers of his flame and his fire so people can see god through us that if they want to know jesus they ought to be able to look at some of us and say that's what it looked like right there that way it looked right now that's that way to look right there he looked like that right then you were around now he don't look like that at all what's your name who are you [Applause] all right let me let me move on let me move on i wrote this down and i was like wow the consequences of not be knowing god so what happens when you don't know what happens when you don't have any knowledge about god and what happens you know no knowledge about god means you don't know him i mean think about that you know you're interested in marrying somebody and and there's no knowledge about them number one and you don't really know him because you don't have knowledge about them and you've not walked into an intimate knowledge of knowing of them what happens with christians every day christians who are at home today christians who are here today and they don't know god right listen to this your impression of who god is will determine how you receive from god so if you think god's a judge that's going to determine how you receive from god if you think god's a murderer that's that's going to determine how you receive it from god if you think god is the one that says you know i got to make you suffer real hard before i can give you this blessing that's how you're going to receive from god if you think god is the god that sends fire down from heaven and this burns people up no matter what the situation is that's how you're going to receive from god the question this morning is what is your impression of who god is because if you have a wrong impression of who god is that's how you're going to receive from him and and and you know it's a lot of that starts with this if you're in the wrong church listening to a wrong preacher who don't know nothing about god and don't know god and proceeds to preach a sermon about god and then gives you the wrong impression and you're there because your mama went there and hear her mama over there mama went there then all y'all gonna have this wrong impression of god which you proceed to pass down to other people and spread that same fable everywhere and call it the church incorrect concepts about god will determine why your life is going in the direction that it is going in an incorrect concept a guy that you listen to because i mean that guy he can pull it boy he can do this and he do that why are we paying so much attention to the to the to the man and the image it can't be about the man and the image it's got to be about god because he's trying to make you into his image and we keep thinking about a man or a woman we keep making about a church we keep making about all this other stuff we go to the internet oh look at this and look at that and you don't understand the farther and farther the way you get from god's word the farther and farther away you get from him the closer you get the wrong impressions and you just you can't even walk with god and professing to be wise you've become a fool now now if you remember this church we're going to let that happen we're gonna let that happen grace and peace is multiplied through what the knowledge and the knowing of god so some people try to get grace and peace to be multiplied through prayer grace and peace is not going to be multipli multiplied through prayer cause god didn't say that did he he said break grace and peace multiply through the knowing and the knowledge of god why is it that we're always substituting something for god why is jesus never enough why is jesus never enough why must we always add to jesus as he's never enough i told you last week what he said to me i said lord i remember these things you're showing me he said you had all you need when you had me when those lame people walked and and and when those miracles took place in those meetings and and when and when that stadium was packed out what did you have to do with it he said you already had everything you need it mean i said lord what happened he said you left me trying to get more of what you already had isn't that the truth about most christians we even sing songs about more more of you god more anointing god more glory god more he like adam gave you all you ever need and you still trying to get more because you cannot trust that i am enough today you have a pastor that absolutely trusts that he's enough i got all i ever need i don't need to pray for none that's as long as i have him as long as i bring him wherever i'm going everything's going to be taken care of i don't need to go into a five-hour prayer and i don't need to go into a two-week fast all i need to go know is to make sure i carry his flame carry his fire carry his presence and he'll make sure that i am sufficient in everything that i need if i go to a board meeting praise god i just make sure i invite him into my heart and walk up in that board meeting with him are you listening to me wrong knowledge produces wrong results faith is based on knowledge and wrong knowledge will produce wrong faith [Music] and if you have a need for healing if you have a need for prosperity etc you have a need of understanding who he is if we knew the nature and the character of god then unbelief and worrying and fear would not be a factor in our life if you knew how faithful how loving how caring god is you wouldn't worry about that stuff did you know that if a person really knew god and understood god as the wonderful father he is there would be no trouble believing him and believing his word so having faith in other people means developing relationship with them right to the point where you know them so well you just completely trust them if you knew him most of the issues of our lives would be resolved if we knew him and my heart hurts when i continue to meet people who say they know him and they don't know him they know about him they've achieved some knowledge they don't know him you can't judge them well dog gone and if you show me a treat and there's an apple on that tree i most likely can look at you and say that's an apple tree and yet when it comes to people in church you act like you you want to play blind you know the devil when you see it you know what happened when you see an apple and you know somebody who know god and unfortunately we've just learned how to play the chess game and i'm here to break all that up and the kingdom of darkness don't like that because i'm breaking up his fantasy game you ever heard of fantasy football well fantasy church is over when i have no fantasy church you got to get to know him spend the rest of your life whining about why ain't nothing working why why because you don't know him but why because you don't know him but why see there's some people god won't even help [Music] because we must mature everybody got to mature and there are some things god is not going to allow to bypass your life because it can be used as a powerful instrument to mature you so stop complaining about problems and trouble you're going to have some the bible says may that lift godly shall suffer persecution persecution is part of the life prescription that god has given every born-again believer why are you surprised when you meet trouble my advice is don't worry about the trouble just as long as you got jesus when the troubles show up as long as you got his presence when the troubles show up quit being shocked over the trouble like you're not supposed to have none that's what i want to understand why you got time to gossip about somebody else in trouble you're going to have some trouble too it might not be not enjoy the eye of the storm when it come but you're going to have some trouble do praise god and you better hope you know god when your trouble visits you but you got you got you got to be it's got to come because we got to mature nobody was born fully mature there's some powerful gifts on the inside of you that we won't see until we can see maturity grow up in you and some of you just still babies but i don't understand why that happens go through a girl hush well i gotta let that happen ask him it's a perfect time to fellowship with him well i just don't think that's god you don't know enough to think so keep praying and reading why is it that you think you just gotta say yesterday ain't even fully dried out from being baptized and now you you you presume you can lecture god you gonna have trouble i said the other night trouble in my way trouble in my way i got to cry sometimes now you're going to cry a lot of time got to cry sometimes so much trouble trouble in my way now he don't want your worship in trouble i got to cry sometime i got to cry sometime lay awake at night look at this lay awake at night watch this and that's all right ain't nothing all right about none of that ain't nothing all right about laying awake at night and troubling you away and all that kind of stuff ain't nothin that's all right and hear what they say and you always want to say this with that cheap grace i ain't did nothing it's all right i lay awake at night you know why it's all right jesus he will fix it when he gonna fix it after a while step in the water what'd he say the water was cold why was the water cold what did i see religion comes in creates a fable you buy it and there's no relationship with god there's no knowing god you don't know him they that know their god shall do exploits you don't know god until you go through a good fight with him i mean not against him but when things are going on you and god walked through that thing and you didn't quit on him you didn't ask him you didn't get my ultimatum talking about god if you don't deliver me by tomorrow i'm through with you for real for real you you mad at the only one that can help you no no i ain't playing these games no more well i ain't gonna say and i'm gonna let god reveal until you better say it around me i'm gonna say something in love right in your face cause it don't seem like nobody else saying no that's something i need to tell you you are in darkness well you know i'm just shacking up with that girl cause you know until we get our finances straight i see you you now you now you're letting the devil talk through you remember when peter had just announced this is the the son of the living god and then jesus says i come to die and peter said oh no you ain't come to die and i'll let that happen and god and jesus looked at peter and said satan i rebuke you why because you're giving more attention to the way the world thinks and no attention at all to the very purpose of why i'm here and that's what's happening right now you're giving so much attention to the way the world thinks you ain't even stopped to ask god about nothing well brethren i'm like you i'm gonna i'm gonna carry the presence well somebody else might say i ain't carrying nothing and what i say is i do what you told me to do and after you do what god tells you to do you're good i thought well i don't do it enough i must be finished i must be done i thought it was going to take me 20 more years but i can get on that now and the lord showed me a vision and i said oh my god ain't hauling nothing done i said all we've been doing is taking laps thinking that that one lap was the will of god for our life see god hadn't shown you the ultimate will for your life he's shown you a progressive transformative will for your life and you think that that one lap you've been running is the ultimate will of god for your life now that's just a piece of what's what it's going to take for you to be able to do the ultimate will of god for your life and some of you have gotten stuck in transition so god let you take a lap were you operating the spiritual gifts so you can see if you will give him the lord and give yourself a glory now and then how god took a lap where everything you touched prospered to see if money was going to rule you or you were going to have dominion over money but see each time you thought it was your ultimate call well god called me to to deal with money or god called me to walk in the given spirit he did me the same way he said son i want you to go preach to the west side of africa and i said oh that's the will of god for my life and then when i did it i'm like i'm through and i'm like it doesn't mean i'm through i said i'm kind of young and then he added on to son i want you to go 8 million miles and do that and i did that and i was through i thought that was the ultimate will of god for my life but that was just another lap then god said i want you to start world changing churches in college paul and i started world change church and i did it and and i thought it was the ultimate will of god it was just another laugh and then he said and all you're getting get understanding i'm like okay that's what i'm supposed to do for the rest of my life and all you're getting good understanding but i found out it was another laugh because then he came in he said i understand grayson and be empowered it came and then there was another lap and our life is composed of all of these laps to bring us to a place where we're ultimately prepared to do the ultimate will of god for our lives and some of us think the will of god for our life is going to take 10 years for some of us the will of god is our life is only going to take an hour but it took 50 years to get you ready for one hour so i asked the lord i said how do you know how well will how will you know that you're ready for the ultimate will of god for your life he said when one day you rise up and say uh whatever you want to do lord i don't even care i bring no addition to your your program i bring no no nothing to add to the agenda i will do whatever you want me to do say what you want me to say go you want me to go keep going whatever you want me to do god like oh now you're ready to do the ultimate will of my and my he'll sit there and say uh i'm sending a man by you by the name of paul he was blind on the road of damascus you heard of him yeah that's the guy who persecuted us what you want me to do with him i want you to lay hands on him so that he might see again see i took you through all these laps to get you ready to lay hands on one man what am i trying to say don't get stuck in the transition god's not finished with you and wherever you are whatever you did and how you did it he not through with you if you fell in a ditch he wanted you to fall in that so he can help you out of that ditch because there's some more ditches to come so you don't panic when you fall in the ditches you just sit and wait cause the same one that delivered you out of the last ditch is gonna show up and deliver you out of this ditch [Music] god getting ready to do some stuff but don't get stuck in transition i'm sitting up there in the middle of a lap thinking that's it well i can go i don't did what you told me to do yeah like i did all them other laps you told me to do but i ain't never been like i am now how am i now i don't give a flying flip about what nobody say about me cause i'm ready to do his will. and that may mean you're going to get talked about some more well he already done trained me about being talked about that may mean you might be lying on some more he already didn't train me to be light off that may mean that you might get you know hurt some more you you've been hurt so you're good you're good with it you've got a hard shell on you right now you're ready to do god's will think about this as anointed as elijah was he showed up one day suicidal how'd it happen this man operated in all kinds of miracles and showed up suicidal you don't know how many of us were ready to go if it wasn't for the vision of god i had a chance my whole house shook like an earthquake had occurred it was more than what i went through it was a demonic attack to try to take me out of here but to god be the glory [Applause] i'll be stronger than i've ever been cause i'm ready to do his will i have to catch myself sometime because i get to i get to weeping not cause i'm sad i get the weeping because my god he's good oh my goodness my god he's good oh my god it's been about him the whole time every time you think it's about you and then you look back and you realize it's been about him the whole time he's never left you he will never leave you he will never forsake you he'll be your god on the on the bad side of life and he'll be your god on the good side of life god promised you he'd never leave you then it's time for you to make that promise i'm not leaving you god i'm not gonna let go of you god if you don't let go of me i'm not gonna let go of you god you are my savior you are my bombing gilead you are my rock of ages hallelujah you are my king of kings and my lord of lords you are my healer hallelujah you are my deliverer hallelujah oh praise be to god hallelujah there's nobody like him i just looked all over and i can't find nobody like him hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah canada i still can't articulate everything i went through i can articulate it more and more every day something's coming but we will not be caught off guard [Applause] so don't be afraid when you see these things these things must come to pass and the bible says but the end won't be yet so far it's been churches stuff now you're about to see it come to pass and you're about to see that you can't trust no system you're not going to be to trust no governments you're not going to be able to trust the stock market and you're not going to be able to trust the protocols of society to assure that this gets here if that gets here or that works and all that kind of stuff all that stuff is going to be interrupted to check and see who will go to jesus who will you trust now [Applause] i'm trusting god i say i'm trusting god some trust in horses and some trust in chariots i'm trusting god i'm trusting in god for my water i'm trusting in god for my food you better hear me i'm trusting god for my water i'm trusting in god for my food i'm trusting in god for my provisions grow bo i'm trusting in god for my joy i'm trusting in god for my peace i'm trusting god for my protection the angels of god have already been given a command to watch over you demons have met every day to try to come up with a strategy to destroy you trust in the lord with all your heart lean not to your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path i hope it's not too late for those who have been sucked in by religion [Music] because this is one of those seasons i ain't got to prove nothing it's going to be like going home one week and seeing it come back say pastor you said that two months ago going home another week and see the old lord jesus and see you don't want to wait till the last minute trying to trust god let him take you through the training necessary now
