It's Time for Miracles - Part Two | Pastor Nancy Dufresne

[Music] Turnagain will kind of pick up a little bit where we left off this morning and then go on Exodus chapter 3 Exodus chapter 3 and we want to remind you if you weren't here this morning you would have to get that tape to just see what we're saying but just saying something that the Holy Ghost said to me just a few weeks ago he said it's time for miracles amen and if that's what the father's emphasizing that is what we choose to emphasize that's what we choose to become skillful in it's not enough that God wants to do it somebody who knows God has to want to do it amen Exodus chapter 3 and we were looking at this this morning in verse 1 now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father-in-law and you think of it here he was raised in the house of Pharaoh and he's back being an employee of a man he's 80 years old he doesn't have his own he has he's employed by his father-in-law taking care of sheep and it could look like your future isn't very bright it could look like as we said this morning it could look like I've made too many mistakes I've wasted too many years I've done things that have not further me in the plan of God but I tell you what if you'll not give up if you'll not give up God can make up the difference amen and so it doesn't look like a very hopeful future eighty year old man out being a sheep herder for his father-in-law not his own sheep think of it he once was a son of Egypt but now he's on the backside yeah so Moses kept the the flock of Jethro his father-in-law the priest of Midian and he led the flock to the backside of the desert not much of a view back there right yeah and he came to the mountain of God and the angel of the Lord appeared unto Him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush and he looked so notice he saw this bush from a distance and he looked and behold the bush burned with fire in the bush was not consumed and Moses said I will now turn aside and see this great sight why the bush is not burned and when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see God called whether or not God speaks depends really we just think he'll speak if he wants but he speaks to those who listen and so to those who listen he'll talk more amen and so when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see so notice is the Lord was watching what's he going to do with this experience is he just gonna keep walking on and keep taking care of his sheep and act like life as usual but God was looking to see what are you gonna do when you see something beyond what your life contains amen God is looking to see how we respond to revelation God is looking to see how we respond to life because those who respond he'll continue talking to him remember when Daniel as a young boy was taken by his mother into the temple and he was there to serve eli the prophet and as he was in bed one night the voice of god called him by name and it was so audible and so clear that he got up and ran into eli this happened three times before eli recognized that wasn't me calling that must be God God speaking to you and it said Eli gave him instruction and said if you hear that voice again respond yes because he did respond but he responded the wrong way he responded by going over to see the only one he had had experience with hearing from and so whenever he talked to Eli Eli said if he calls you again say speak Lord thy servant heareth and so it says and God spoke as at other times so notice this other times he had called and because there was no response there was no message brought so God wants to know how are you going to respond to his invitation a man you say well I'm not hearing a voice you hear a man your pastor in Europe in the pulpit he's speaking how do you respond to that that's going to determine what God will say further to you amen and so God revealed to Samuel some things because he responded and he was listening here it says when the Lord saw that he when the Lord saw that he turned aside it be God God what has so much more to say to us but we stopped short remember when the ten lepers from a far-off called to Jesus and said had mercy on us and he said go show yourself to the priest and as they went they were cleansed the process of leprosy is stopped but it says but when one saw but when one saw the other saw but they didn't respond right to what they saw they saw leprosy leave their body and they kept living life as usual but when the one saw that he was healed it says he turned back and with the loud voice glorified God so all the way back to where Jesus was he's loudly glorifying God we don't know how many blocks we don't know how far he had gone and all the way back he is with a loud voice glorifying God proper response to what you've received will keep you maintaining what you receive he responded with loud Thanksgiving loud praise and it says and when he came to Jesus he fell down at his feet and worship so all the way he's loudly announcing what God has done for him and then when he gets to Jesus he falls down at his feet and worships and Jesus said weren't there nine others with you where are they notice this Jesus expected that one somebody received something or he does something for them where are you from there what do you do after that what do you do after he gives you an answer for your life in a service what where are you after that right so Jesus said where are they and then he said they are not found that returned you don't find something you're not looking for he was looking for them to return why was he looking for him to return notices he had something more for me you understand that they were cleansed the one who came back and worshiped the word says Jesus said to him your faith has made you whole he didn't make any faith confession all he did was worship Jesus called his worship faith what made him whole body parts were put back as he worshiped so we could put it this way Jesus could have said unto Him your worship has put back body parts it's exact same thing so the way he responded it to some movement in his life determined if he got more that's what I want you to see my and he had you know leprosy eats off toes and feet and hands and fingers and facial features the others just had leprosy stopped but they're still missing stuff this one that came back he worshiped toes are back hands are back body body features that were gone they're back why because he responded right to the part he got and there was more my question is this don't you wonder what the nine said the next time they saw the one you were leprosy left you like us but how come you got toes back oh I went back to the place where I got it you didn't you went on and went hanging out with your friends are back to your home or you just went on and live life as usual life changed for me I went back to where that my help was you didn't amen this is what God is looking how will we respond to things he has done things he has said because those who respond right he has more for us you understand that because people will say well you know one Christians bless God's bless them more than me know somebody responded somebody responded to more and when they responded more more came amen so this is what we see it says here in verse for him when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see see before God started talking he was going to see how are you going to treat the parts you already have the parts you already have is a bush that's burning without being consumed are you going to stop with that and go wait a minute I see that are you just gonna just carry on and say well I got cheap to deal with I don't have time for this he didn't start talking until he responded right to the part he already had and so when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see God called unto him out of the midst of the bush go with me if you would the second chronicles chapter 16 second chronicles chapter 16 you know you had to think of and we were talking about this at lunch today it looked like Moses was on the backside of the desert because he was forgotten a forgotten man but God prepares his men in secret he does not prepare his men on a world stage he only puts a prepared man on a world stage there are a lot of men that will put themselves on a world stage unprepared and when they do they fall publicly God does not train a man on a world stage he trains him on the back side of the desert he trains him in secret he trains him in private he trains him in us in a church where people don't think it's really making an impact because it's not the largest church in the state God's not training his his his leaders on public stages amen God was training Moses in a very private place where men had forgotten him that's okay God hadn't forgotten him the training was continuing it didn't look like training it looked like serving and it was it was serving it was how do you think that the word says about Moses he was the most meek man on the face of the earth you think he learned that in Pharaoh's house he didn't learn it you know in in the in the Pharaoh's castle palaces he learned it on the backside where he was forgotten and nobody even noticed that the son of Pharaoh was even present didn't care amen and when you can go unnoticed and let God work but if you got to be noticed you need some back with some some back desert boss amen amen dad Hagin I was I was saying I don't know where who I was saying it to was it you I was saying we were watching dad we're watching I was watching a video of dad Hagin and somebody because they only had the audio so what they did they just picked a random video and put it with the audio and you think that's not freaky he's preaching and then the video shows him running around in circles on the platform it's it's quite comical so I have to lay it down and not look at it because I just need to hear it because to look at it and to see it is and here it is two different things going on I guess they thought they were trying to get people a picture of what dad hey gonna look like but this was odd this looked like a Morpha dot looking fine I don't know is that you saw it too and it's so funny because I but in watching that if you if you if you turned off the volume and just watched in the video side of it he sees on the the platform there at Rhema it was in that one of the earlier buildings and personal kidding you know how many that first auditorium seated there at Rhema you have any idea just a rough guess yeah maybe six to eight hundred something like that in that so I'm saying you know it was a lot of chairs and you see him and he takes off running on the platform and he just run around in circles all over the platform cuz he's thrilled you know he's thrilled with the word and he's just doing this trucking along you know and he's doing this and running all around and it's so cute because he you know what this is going this it's hilarious it's great I love it just somebody thrilled with God you know thrilled with the word and then he's preaching and he's just going at it like this and then about halfway through they showed the camera to where they show the sanctuary and it's nothing but empty chairs there's maybe 15 people and I'm going I love it I love it he's a thrilled with 15 people present as if there were 1500 present he's totally unmoved why because he was trained in secret to where nobody very few were present and he was the same so it didn't matter if a few being present bothers you you're not ready for many because many will put you in pride and I saw what an example I just saw that being oh what an example I'm so grateful that they showed there's only like 15 people in this auditorium that seats as we said like six seven hundred something like that and he's just preaching away he's not held back he's not looking dejected like nobody wants my ministry this man was trained from the time he was 17 he didn't get he didn't start Rheem until what about 57 years old 56 somewhere around in there yeah and so all of those years he was in secret in a little Church in Texas and a little Church over here in Texas and a little one over here and a little one over here with a handful of people why because when God trains a man and when God builds a man he doesn't do it on a public stage he does it in the bedroom he does it how in your office he does it when he when you're dealing with your children when you're dealing with your wife those are the places he's building you so it matters how you treat this the settings that aren't public many people will talk faith when they're around others but do you talk faith when there's no one hearing you many will look spiritual when there's others observing but when there's only God watching no wonder Moses became the most meek man on the face of the earth 40 years of no one watching but God forty years of it think of it think of the the pleasure think of the opulence he lived in in the in the home of Pharaoh everything was at his beck and call servants Cook's maids anything he needed and for the next 40 years he's serving another man taking care of sheep that don't even belong to him yeah it looks like life is diminishing it looks like life is decreasing but we must increase we must decrease so he can increase amen God is going to train you in the most unlikely settings in the most unlikely situations in the most unlikely conversations make sure that you don't think that your training and you don't miss miss the training of heaven because you think it's not important enough for you amen what do you do what is your heart on the inside of you do you growl when somebody asks you to do something my gosh I'm tired of doing the law the more we respond inappropriately inwardly the longer we stay on the back side of the desert handling other people's stuff not even our own well praise the Lord praise the Lord 2nd chronicles chapter 16 that's for free what I'm saying to you is this just because it doesn't look like something spectacular is going on in your life something deep is because God is laying a foundation foundation foundation foundation foundation and he's got to give it time to cure they never just pour concrete and then walk off and say okay the you know the framers can come tomorrow no they cannot it's got they've got to have time to cure right there are pouring years where God's pouring your foundation I mean there's curing years where that is being that is completely solidified nothing damping that nothing compromised why so cracks don't come later when there is something built on top of it and all this weight is put on that foundation and until dad what was it 40 years 40 years that he was being prepared in these little tucked-away places and if you listen today too much leadership stuff they'll teach you that if you're not if you don't have your own business if you're not leader and all this stuff if you're not in front you're not going to arrive at your vision I tell you what there is nothing dishonorable in serving another man until the insides of you is so fortified and amen you say how do you know this God said this to me years ago he said it to me years ago he said I prepare in secret amen so just because others don't see and don't acknowledge don't take the secret time and waste it keep your heart right keep your motives right keep your insides clean keep yourself teachable keep yourself serving serving serving serving serving serving serving for 40 years he had to serve why because for 40 years he was served as a son of pharaoh he served for 40 years people were serving him at his beck and call God says well you know how to give a command but do you know how to take one amen so put him on the backside of the desert until you learn to take what you've been given out why because as the leader of God's people out of Egypt they're only going to get out as well as Moses can take commands not give him he's got to take them he's got to take them and he's got to take them from someone he doesn't see in the face of someone who he had lived with for 40 years think of it think of the situation of this setting that Moses he had to go back to the place where he was so used to being treated as royalty being favored and being catered to and then he's got to go back to them and defy all of that based on what he hears you say boy I'd like to have a you know a life like Moses would you really would you really would you really to go back in the face of those who raised you and say you're doing it wrong you're treating God's people wrong and he had to stand in the face of them and that's not an easy thing on the natural side you better make sure you're hearing amen well praise the Lord how did he do that because for 40 years he was taking instructions from a father-in-law now notice this about the father-in-law he wasn't a businessman he's a spiritual man he's the priest of Midian he's not a Jew he doesn't even know anything about the things that Moses is upbringing but even though he didn't know maybe God the way Moses had been trained or maybe the way he saw with Jews and new of their people and their customs and their cultures he could still learn something from somebody amen and that man had a voice in him the rest of his life his father-in-law had a voice in the Moses the rest of his life because at a time when he was ruling God's people in the wrong way his father jet his father-in-law Jethro came and said you're going to wear yourself out and the people he came and visited him and helped set the organization and the the the leadership the authority the chains of command he helped him set him in place correctly why because Moses hadn't been in command for 40 years and he needed help from a man that Moses served under it's it's it's an amazing setting an amazing amazing setting second chronicles 16 are you there okay we gave you time second chronicles chapter 16 verse 9 for the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth why are his eyes notices his eyes are going like this throughout the whole earth doesn't he isn't he all-knowing sure he is but he's waiting for someone who's interested in the one who's all-knowing so the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth why for this purpose to show himself strong in the behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward him could we say whose heart is perfectly turned toward him notice this God has an artist sightedness see we we said something that God had said to me last month is it's time for miracles who is God gonna use he's our chosen who's going to use no his eyes are going to and fro looking for someone he can show himself strong through who did who will he use it depends on who's available it depends on who's skilled who's prepared who's studying who's listening who's being a student amen you notice something about a David notice every great leader was a great servant I'm talking about in God's in God's class in God's business every great leader was a great servant David was a shepherd boy right yes and because he learned not to be afraid of the sounds at night it was so important he was his daddy kept him outside with the Sheep and at nighttime he would hear sounds yeah and he learned how to conquer fear just with the Sheep just learned how to not be afraid of the sounds you want to know why because when he's a young man he's gonna hear a sound yeah it's called Goliath and he's gonna have to hear that sound and not be afraid amen so David of course defeats Goliath but notice this he part of his reward is now he's married to the king's daughter and he's now living in the palace the problem is you think well that that's a cushy life really the king is demon-possessed I don't know nice bed makes up for that baby nice cushy surroundings this guy's yielding to evil spirits but notice what it says that when relief would come was when David played with skill before the Lord it said David played with skill and when that would happen the evil spirit would leave the king and the king would be restored to peace and harmony back what was it was it God's power no it was skill that gave place to the power of God notice this I just love the Lord I just want to serve the Lord great that's a great heart that's the right starting place but God needs skill added to your love God needs a skillful in faith skillful with the word skillful in serving skillful in answering opposition skillful in standing our ground why because it's when skill is in place that that victories are won it's not when power is in place when skill with power is in place amen praise the Lord so it says that the eyes of the Lord is running to and fro why cuz he's wanting to show himself strong what does that mean he's got to have someone he can flow through he's looking for people who are skilful now I've probably told it here but I must tell it again because our answers and our help is in what God has shown our spiritual fathers and on the occasion when Jesus stepped out of a cloud in one of my husband's meetings and fire shot out of his eyes at my husband and said you're not being skillful with the healing anointing and he stepped back into the cloud and Ed's left standing there and then God even over time began to explain more to him but notice this because he wasn't being skillful people who should have been healed weren't people who could have been healed weren't when we're not skillful there are things God wants to do that he can lack of skill causes God to not it limits him it limits him well you say can't God just dumped something on somebody yes but the thing is is that's not primarily how he operates that's the exception God expects us to be a student of the word a student of faith what's it say Jude said earnestly contend for the faith why because God needs somebody who is skillful with faith that he can manifest and show himself through Amen so when he said it's time for miracles I'm saying all that to say this it's our job to become scared skillful with that miracle flow and not just say well that's what preachers do or that's up to the minister that's not true that is for the body of Christ amen yes ministers wait trained us and lead us in these things but they will never take the place of us bringing our own skill I remember one argument I had with God anybody ever had an argument god I said to God on occasion because he was dealing with me about writing books and I go God brother Hagins books are the finest out there just read his stuff just read his stuff I'm not advanced beyond him just read his stuff I don't why can't we just sell his stuff until people read his stuff that's how we got where we're at we read his stuff and God brought to me the passage where it says David was faithful to serve his generation and then he said to me he said brother Hagins serving his generation through the books that were written does not dismiss you from serving your generation what's that mean God will not let me hide under the umbrella of another man's skill I must bring my own skill I must bring my own supply to the body of Christ it's not enough that your pastor brings his supply and she brings her supply to this church family we all have a supply to bring and we all will be we all will be accountable for us serving our generation amen praise the Lord and so the eyes of the Lord are running to and fro through the earth that he can show himself strong through someone who has skill with the word skill with the power of God skill with miracle power skill with healing power skill with prosperity skill with a renewed mind skill with all these things that we are privileged to develop in our lives amen praise the Lord so God is looking notice this what what's he look he's wanting to show himself he's not wanting for people to have a misunderstanding and not receive of him he's wanting to show himself when you think of Jesus his earthly ministry was fulfilled through three through three things teaching preaching and healing that's how he fulfilled his earthly ministry he was skilled at teaching he was skilled at preaching he was skilled at healing if you ever look and see the people let's just take for example the ones that were raised from the dead under his ministry if you take him in successive order gyruss his daughter is dead for moments the second one is the the man he's walking into the city and they have a funeral procession the young man has died and the the widow mother is weeping he's been dead for a couple days you see the progression yeah and then Lazarus is dead for four days he's already in the grave the first one hadn't been taken off her deathbed yet the second one is being carried to his grave the third one is in his grave four days see the progression he had to become skillful with death and that's what we see we don't see him starting with Lazarus we seemed starting with breath has just left her her body still warm it's still a miracle I don't care how long you've been dead Dead is dead but do you see to the mind of man to the mind of man her body's still warm there's hope there's hope that's what we would say right oh there's hope you know still warm it's a warm one but Lazarus by the time he gets to full skill why because he's going to have to know how to receive being raised from the dead raised Lord he's has to he's faced he's faithful he's faced people three times why because God's preparing him for his own you say when do you study that I didn't I've never thought of it in my life thank God for him making us look better than we are these are things that what was it growing in skill it matters that we grow in skill we don't just Punk our money in the way we've always done it we should be releasing more and more faith every time we should be serving in in greater ways and with greater skill there was one church we went two years ago it was seating I believe it was 5,400 people and the pastor was walking us through the building that was about 90% finished and showing it and I giving us a tour of it and he took us over to the children's department and there were no furnishings in any part of the building except the children's department that department was completely finished and the pastor said to us see this room because I mean the rooms were about this big for children's departments because you can imagine 5,400 people the number of children toddlers and babies and we walked in and it was completely d'accord completely all the equipment in it and there were babe there were stacked cribs along the wall you know like bunks but they were where they had the babies that you stacked them in these cribs along the wall he said see this room he said this room we I have a children's director and when we talked about the vision for the building she started using her faith and she got the workers together and they prayed and they used their faith and she said he said she never came to me for one dime for all this department her and her workers believed it in because she said pastor you got enough on your faith without me putting my department on your faith if God gave me this department I have faith it's my job to have faith for this department it's not my job to come and get money from you for my department that's called skill where are we serving what are we signed assigned to you see we need skill and that's what I'm talking about you might not be in the pulpit you might not be doing some of the more dramatic things but wherever you're serving you'd be get to the top get to the top and skill in your department amen how do you know you're how do you know your skill is growing when you need to involve the leader less and less not not that you're leaving him out because you're taking it over but because he's so trust you that he doesn't step in to monitor you because he knows that you're skillful and what's in his heart amen thinking of this Jesus made this statement he said the works that I do show you do also well what it works he did teaching preaching and healing and then he said he gave everyone the assignment in the last chapter mark he gave everyone the assignment go into all the world right that's for everyone the Great Commission but he said the works that I do show you do also but how did he do the works he did how did he do it he said this he said only do what I see my father do I only say what I hear my father's say how did Jesus become skillful with miracles every miracle Jesus worked began with what he saw his father do and heard his father say every miracle began there he did not go on his own and say I'm gonna raise this person from the dead he saw it before he ever went out in public and did it before he laid hands on the lepers or before the blind eyes were open and made mud he saw it he said I only do what I see he wasn't out there on his own concocting a formula of miracles he was waiting to what he saw and what he heard how did he see and heard it's just like what we read with Moses he turned aside and when God saw that he turned aside he called what's that mean God started talking God started revealing the more we turn aside the more God's going to show us and say to us so that we can grow in skill and what he wants to show himself strong in amen does that make sense to you it's not about when God said it's time for miracles you know what that means for us it's time to turn aside why to see what he shows to hear what he says there were times that Jesus people came up to Jesus and Jesus didn't immediately respond to them right there was the the one woman who said my daughter is grievously vexed of a devil he didn't same thing to her I firmly believe he didn't say anything till he heard yeah how do I deal with her there are several instances what about when he came out of he raising gyruss his daughter from the dead he came out of that and there's two blind men and they follow him they cry have mercy on us have mercy on us he ignores them and they followed him through the city can you imagine I mean people would look at him and say my gosh don't you have don't you have any kind of heart for people I mean these blind men are following you you're ignoring them they're bumping their way trying to find where you're at they're saying cuz Jesus isn't giving out a call they've got to ask where is he where is he or maybe they had somebody to lead them in following him he made them follow him through the city till he arrived at the house and then they came to him in the house and he said you believe I'm able to do this yes so be it done unto you according to your faith I firmly believe what's he doing is he just trying to put him through hardship I don't think he's heard yet how do i minister to these two I don't just do what I've done before I want I need to hear for them what do I do I firmly believe that he's not trying to torture and not trying to look like the mean preacher in town that's unkind to hurting people I think he's hearing he's hearing he's waiting to hear Amen if we're going to become skillful we have to turn aside you can turn aside right in the midst of people you can turn aside right when you're in the crowd you can just put up your spiritual antenna and know how to tap in to what the holy goes to sing to you I had a conference call with somebody a business deal I was trying to close the buyer they had their lawyers on the phone they had people from the city on the phone they had the contractor on the phone they had me on the phone and my my lawyer was not on the phone because it wouldn't have done any good because my lawyer was trying to get me to just accept their terms and so I had no one working for me and I had a pastor that was a friend to me on the phone and there was about eight or so of us on this conference call and they tried to package it with we're offering you a real good deal here this is what we're offering you we you want to use the whale on your property well we'll take care of it you want to use the well my gosh you got 400 children every day at your can you imagine what that's going to do to the demand on that well and then you act like you're doing me a favor by paying for the usage the the maintenance of it are you kidding me you're not doing me a favor but see they would word things to where we're we're it's gonna benefit both of us no it's benefiting you it's it's stripping me but benefiting you and so they would play these word games and I go I'm not I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed but I I'm not the dole it's either and I mean from every all these people on the conference call they're all jumping in in favor of all the different things there were like seven or eight different things they were trying to get me to comply with and they were just hammering me with all this stuff and the city's gonna require this and city's gonna require that I said the city can't require me to give something of my property of you they cannot require that I give you my well they cannot require that I give you my parking lot they can't require but you know anyway so you get in the midst of all this and I and I know this many times with business there's a little give-and-take not stupid that I don't demand a win my way and step over dollars to pick up pennies that's stupid and so I I know there's a little give and take but I don't know what the give-and-take line is anymore because I'm being so bombarded with what they're telling me I need to do I don't even know what's appropriate anymore so I just said I'll be back in a moment and I walked into the green room what am i turn inside why it's time to hear why because I'm gonna get my miracle when I hear my miracle is connected to my hearing my miracle is connected to my seeing but I've got to take time I don't care I'm not talking about just your devotional time all throughout the day you can turn aside pay attention to the Holy Ghost and so I walked into the office and I said God you know I didn't even start to list all my my non qualities in this setting I mean every single one of them know their business better than I know their business I'm not an attorney I'm not a banker I'm not a city advisor I'm not a contractor they all know their business better than me but I said but you know and I said what do you say do I give them some do I give them part do I give them everything right if I give them everything to think the thing that thing gets signed today and the Holy Ghost said don't give them a thing so needed divine counsel from the genius counselor of heaven that is on the inside of me and I walked back in and said I'm not giving you a thing nothing thank you very much for your time bye we're done it was another six months after that a fight fight fight but didn't matter the Holy Ghost I heard him and when I hear I get my help part of the skill for miracles is learned to turn aside just when you're even paying your bills what I do father what do I say father how do I handle it on the little things learn to turn aside and hear because then when you're faced with a need of a miracle you're are we're going to be practicing skillful at turning aside and hearing every miracle Jesus worked on the earth came because he turned aside and saw or heard first and no matter who was present with their need right in front of him he did not speak until he knew he wasn't born knowing he was born a man he had to learn the voice of the Father like we did how did God speak to him through the Holy Ghost he was anointed with the Holy Ghost God is going to show us and speak to us through the Holy Ghost and you had the exact same Holy Ghost he had amen so that means his success is possible for our success st. our success should look like this because we had the same helper we had the same divine genius Amen hallelujah hallelujah [Music] several years ago I had just finished up a meeting at a church and was in the hotel room the last night I was there before I flew back home and I had a dream that night and in the dream I saw a man who not to take time to tell the whole thing but his legs were cut off right below the knee and I saw a man of God no one I knew no one I recognized minister to this man and watched legs and feet and toes grow back on in that dream never had seen anything like it before and as soon as I woke up God said to me you remember your husband would ask in many of the services he was in especially the last several years of his life has anybody in here ever seen someone where there's an arm missing an arm grow on where there's a leg missing an arm a leg grow on we've seen at times when somebody their back was misaligned and a leg would grow out but it was God wasn't adding anything it was straightening something and so it would look like it's growing out but it was really just straightening out so we would see that and different ones had seen that and in all the times there was never anybody who saw and God said to me when I woke up from that dream he said Jesus only did what he saw since no one of your generation has shown you I'm showing you so you can see why that's what he wants to do that's what he wants to do that's what he wants to do jesus healed the maned whether they were born with missing parts whether there were accidents whether there were diseases that people had to have limbs cut off it says jesus healed the maimed we don't have that skill we have the power but we don't have that skill yet in the body of Christ it's time it's time it's time but we're going to have to be skillful with it how about not just be skillful for wanting to see it how about skillful believing for it how about skillful saying how about skillful with confessing it Amen meditating on it talking about it amen I was there was one thing I was one thing in particular I was believing God for physically and received my healing on it and the day I received my healing I had a dream and in the dream I'm laying just in like a backyard all it is is grass and I was just laying flat on my back in the grass and I'm just laying there and I turned my head to the left and when I did there came a serpent his head was this wide about two feet wide or so just his head and he was this far from me have you ever seen you didn't see something there and then all of a sudden it's right there on you and I was laying there in that dream and I realized that he was referring to the healing I had just received and I'm laying there I turned my head and that serpent is coming at me full speed but the time I see it he's like this far from me and you don't yet have time to move you don't have time he's right there and I thought he was gonna go for my face cuz he was coming right at my face too and come to you know bite down put his put his mouth on my face and he didn't he turned and went up to my head why the mind and he put and sunk his fangs down into the mind into my head and I'm watching this happen and the moment he bit down God lifted me up and I saw myself looking down on that scene and I saw the serpent as he was it looked like I I was overcome because that thing had I'm talking this white of a mouth had just taken my whole head and clamped down on it it looked like I was gonna be devoured but when God allowed me to see he picked me up and I saw this because I couldn't see it laying there but I could see it when I was above it and the head was only about this long it had been torn off not cut off smooth torn off what was he saying what was he showing me no matter what he says to your head that serpent has been destroyed and he wasn't cut clean it was ripped I loved it it was great it was like like that it wasn't cut clean like somebody just came up it was just like mangled and God was saying this is the one who attacks but see his condition what what why did he show me skill to gain skill over the one we're dealing with his condition is a destroyed condition his condition is a defeated position amen he looked like he was intact but once he looked past the front he was putting on there was nothing behind him but utter defeat how many people died prematurely listening to a defeated enemy how many went broke afraid because they listened to something whose head was torn off well praise the Lord allelujah yeah it's time for miracles it's time for us to become skillful it's time for us to dig back through the light of generations past and say what have we let slip and pick it back up amen and we know this that revelation is progressive that God is going to give us more but I know this if we're not even honorable toward revelation we've already received why get more let's become proficient with what we have already been fed in what we've already been shown in what we've already been taught let's pick it back up and be doers of it every day amen and then more will come as it's needed amen stand with me to your feet father we thank you we thank you we thank you we thank you we think we believe it it's time for miracles because we believe it we take our place in it as the disciples said what must we do that we might work the works of God your works have to be worked it is man's job to work what you're working and so father we say we're so thankful that we're in this place in this church with these pastors that we are being instructed we're being taught by those who are going the direction of your plan and father we say we're stepping up we're stepping up in our hunger we're stepping up in our attention we're stepping up in our consecration that we may give ourselves to what you have prepared for us and we take wholeheartedly into our hearts the command and the instruction of heaven it's time for miracles so we say it's time for miracles amen listen it's time for miracles in this church time for miracles in this church time for miracles in your church time for miracles can I tell you what if we're not skillful at saying it we certainly won't be skillful at receiving it it's time for miracles it's time for miracles yeah the whole earth was not in readiness for the day of Pentecost they didn't even know the next great thing God was been doing but there were 120 who believed it and 120 who got together turned aside from everything else of life to do nothing but be ready so that God could manifest the next great thing he was doing right and because they made themselves available to the next great thing God was doing the earth is full of the Holy Ghost he's everywhere he's in you because 120 said he can find entrance in this room 120 who knew had blessed the earth because they became a place where God could enter by the power of the Holy Ghost I don't know how many millions are in this city or in your city but your church there's enough to be an entrance to me see we think we have to have a massive thousands of people you just got to have enough people in unity believing the same thing amen I in miracles it's time for them it's time for them it's time for miracles it's time for miracles just like 120 said it's time for the Holy Ghost to arrive it's time that's what they were that jesus said go there tarry there what do you what are they doing they're waiting for the Holy Ghost to arrive there they're saying the Holy Ghost is gonna arrive the Holy Ghost is gonna arrive there in unity amen they got in unity with their words and with their purpose of why they were in that room we need to be as a body of Christ and especially as a congregation in unity to why we're here amen it's time for miracles it's time for miracles God is looking for an entrance to go out throughout this whole city through one room that's what the Upper Room was one room and he went throughout the whole city the whole earth through the one room he just needs a room he just needs a room amen father we we received that we received that it's time it's time for miracles it's time for the last day flow it's time for the flow that prophets have spoken about that men of who were pioneers of our generation what they said it's time and we refuse to be those who pass it to the next generation we will do our part we will serve our generation we believe we believe we believe we believe hallelujah hallelujah let's just worshiping we worship You Father master kakie a mashed acharya DuBose tokura lady kikyo Nam autonomous Toya

tikitiki a can I say this I and please understand how I say this so many people are praying for God to send revival if we're not skillful it didn't matter what he sins it's not gonna float too many times we're working on the sending in instead of being on the student end and saying I just need to become skillful with what he's already shown me before he starts dumping more on me right so many people are praying God's in revival God send revival God's in revival it won't do any good if we're not if we're not skillful with faith skillful with hearing the Holy Ghost skillful with obeying what he says Amen but we purpose to do that I love what one one minister said he said early on in his ministry he said I I thought I was being really spiritually deep and I was praying he said for three weeks I prayed o God speak to me O God speak to me God speak to me for three weeks he said that was my total prayer God speak to me God speak to me and I'd spend hours a day praying in the spirit God speak to me God speak to me he said for three weeks he spoke to me and he said why don't you read my word he said I've already spoken to you in my word and he said and if you need something more than what my word is already said then I'll tell you but you don't even know what my word is already said right in other words become skillful with what you already got and once you get developed skill with that then more will come amen and we're praying God's in revival God's in revival how about us becoming skillful with the Holy Ghost that's in us the power that's in us amen it's not about getting God to do something it's about us becoming skillful with the flow he has made ours amen hallelujah well there's more you don't want to miss other services you say what it was gonna be about I don't know just come just come I'll be here you be here amen you said well you know what I needed something for my marriage or my family you know something if we learn to do what I'm talking about you'll learn to hear for your need you'll learn how to if we'll just tap into what God what's on his heart they will receive the help of things that are on our heart but we have to come with just more than us on earth in our interest yes we have needs we understand that but the with the word says seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteous what he's involved in what he's doing what's on his heart and then he'll add things to you why because you made his a priority so he's letting us know what's a priority to him right now it's time for miracles he's wanting to manifest power amen listen we become skillful with it we become recipients of it amen hallelujah say this with me I believe in miracles and it's time for miracles I choose to become skillful with the power the grace the anointing that God has made available to me I'm a doer of the world I yield to the Holy Ghost I listen to him and I obey Him and everybody's sin
