I've Tested Positive For Faith! | Jesse Duplantis

God's Word is so true what I'm doing right now I feel like I'm in my TV studio preaching to the camera and I'm gonna do that because they're millions of people watching literally all over the world and God's been so good and gracious and and the Lord is gonna do marvelous and wonderful things if you have been watching our Facebook or YouTube or whatever you see or JD in that org I preached the sermon and called what's behind the coronavirus and I'll tell you what I don't know how many views hits how many people Cathy with 300 something thousand hit was that on Facebook or some other place on YouTube and things of that nature because I said people need hope and I want everybody look at me I got hope you understand either now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen and God is so good and gracious and I don't mean this to sound arrogant or prideful I got ministry from all over the world calling me say could you say something on my website could you do this cuz you and I thought why did calling me my lord I mean I have a worldwide mission like about the air but why are you cook and they said joy but just is the joy of the Lord your strength I mean my god a concrete floor bust you in the face and I still got a little bit blue here but that's all healing up glory that God got it's good and gracious I want to get into something today that I believe you're gonna be blessing if you're home I want you to take notes I mean I get you a pencil and paper and take some notes you that are here in the church here and a lot of this is my staff because we live streaming this thing and so we could have all these wonderful things and God is so good and gracious so if you've got your Bible so I want you to turn with me to the book of 2nd Timothy that's right past first Timothy chapter 1 and you'll be blessed by it 2nd Timothy chapter 1 and I want to read a little scripture and I want you to listen to me and when I say this Paul the Apostle really loved Tim Timothy he was it was one of his spiritual sons I have one of my spiritual sons and daughters here this morning - at the church and that it's just so wonderful to see him coming as Kevin and Kathy as a highway where a fact we ate dinner yes that was it last night last night at their house I was you came back you came going to any restaurant in New Orleans they just shut you down I've been ladies and gentlemen I've been eating cheap I mean I've been a bill I've been to a witness and we can't say let's try some father we finally tried the popeyes chicken sandwich lord gee it didn't have to get in line to get it that was a blessing of the Lord God was good and gracious and things they said that's cholesterol this is a good eatin stuff praise the Lord so I thank all those people that are going to those fast food and other restroom but last night I had a good friend of mine named Philip Gagliano he opened he's got takeout orders so we called it on the way going to get some food we thought about Kevin and Kathy said so we called them I'm saying they're at their house you know if we locked down here in New Orleans Louisiana and I say what do you want to eat I got to go get it come back so we got them some food we had a wonderful time around the throne of God God is so good and gracious so I want to let you know I don't care what's happening in the world graters heals in you then he was in the world and I don't and not only will I give you some hope today I'm gonna give you some faith today because faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of the Lord Jesus Christ and that's what it's all about 2nd Timothy chapter 1 I want to start reading with verse 1 I like the old King James Version it says this Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ Louis Heights done by the will of God according to the promise of life the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus people say but just how can you be happy to miss the all that stuff I have the promise of life and the Bible said choose life he said I put before your life and death choose life that you and your seed may live not just survive but live I want to tell all the restaurant waiters and waitresses I am praying for you daily so these listen man my wife don't cook we need these restaurants open up praise God I'm sorry cath I couldn't help myself she says she's been delivered from the bondage I need you it's the Lord and God is so good and great but she is doing some cook it's little we're having a wonderful time around the dinner table and God is so good and gracious notice the promise of life that doesn't mean trouble don't come but who cares we read the end of the book we win and that's what it's all about so knows that yeah and I want to to verse eight minee blessed with this know excuse me verse seven for God hath not given us the spirit of fear now what I preached last week was that what's behind the coronavirus is His image called fear now God hadn't given us a spirit of fear so why should I want it why should I have it if he didn't give it to me see fear tolerated his faith contaminated I prefer to have faith than have fear title of my sermon I have tested positive for faith I had literally tested positive for faith you see what I'm saying and so was the Apostle Paul he was going through all kinds of trouble and you know and I heard the president and I heard that some of the senator said we've never seen something like this well bless God we're not move on what we see we're not we don't deny what we see we deny it's right to affect us that's why we're doing this today you know I mean I think about if I wouldn't a live stream I could have had a day off what do you think of that but you know what there's a job to do he said that God had not given us that's verse 7 a spirit of fear but of power so I want you to stop acting like you're powerful I want you start saying what you want instead of what you have and don't be afraid of the coronavirus because it's a lot more afraid of you because great is using you and everything main has to bow at the name of Jesus so it's got the bow it so gonna need you see what I'm saying people said well I'd try that trying don't get nothing done I didn't try to come and do this today I am here today he said I haven't given you a spirit of fear he's telling me see son what's it but of power and of love and watch this and never sound mind I know some people think that preacher done lost his crazy mind no I have a sound mind because I've been given the mind of Christ so I've tested positive for faith now the only way I know that is when a sickness tries to attach itself to you later tell me you have no idea where they take let me just say financially okay when he takes to operate just in the finest ministers in covenant church it takes millions of dollars do you understand millions and millions and millions of dollars to do that and it's all done by faith it's all done by your donations to this ministry and 100 sent me many you know that 100% of what you give goes in the world evangelism we are completely totally debt free we have no concept the depth whatsoever at all you see what I'm saying and I always told God I said more if you just bless me you gave me a pretty good business mind I'll just take care of all this myself he said with then Jesse I'd have to take giving up the Bible he said if Baba said long as the earth remained it'd be seed time and harvest time so the best time to sow a seed is when you don't think you should let me say that again the best time the solar seed is when you don't think you should cuz you know things are kind of tight around here whoa what do you mean by tight you understand what no see you're looking at something you shouldn't be looking at you shouldn't deny it you should deny it right see the first thing I do when Satan tries to hinder me in any way shape or form when he tried to kill me a couple of weeks ago I mean I never fall down I'm not that old to fall down yet let me just say that glory that God but I mean he tried to take me out but you know what the next morning even though my eye was swollen back and all this cancer got a little TV makeup on it now how did you stop me from going preach I didn't care what I look like I'm not moved by that I'm moved by what I believe ladies and gentlemen and I'm going to show you that in just a minute so when the test comes will you pass the test well how do you do that but having done that by just simply doing everything God said you could do so he hadn't given me a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound my eyeball is saying that to the to Timothy I want to keep on reading and this will bless you and I love verse 11 where do I'm appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher of the Gentiles at verse 12 where I want to get to he says for I know in whom I have believed the reason why I'm here today the reason why I know that the coronavirus doesn't have power over me or you if you believe for I know I quit believing years ago for I know I know I might believe me I believe I believe we trying to get this thing to work for I know in whom I have believed ladies and gentlemen he's writing this letter from a prison there's nobody around him encouraging him he is in prison in fact I wrote this down this might help you prison is the last place from which to expect a letter of encouragement but that is where Paul's second letter to Timothy originates he begins by assuring Timothy of his continuing love and prayers and reminds him of his spiritual heritage and responsibilities only the one who persevered whether as a soldier athlete farmer or minister of Jesus Christ will reap the reward Paul warns Timothy that his teaching will come under attack why because people say wait a minute man that you you're not living in reality but Timothy has Paul's example to guide him and God's Word to fortify him as he faces growing opposition and growing opportunities in the last day see so I made up my mind I wrote that down I thought that might help you say you eat you never think you'd give a letter from a prison but my god most people in prison are depressed or discouraged some of you kind of feel like that in your house my god I don't know what to do I told Kath I said you're they said that we can go get food and come back let's get in the truck and drive somewhere let's just do something you know what I'm saying and I saw a sign that said if you sneeze in your car cover your mouth I'm worried about it on the interstate Lord Jesus okay I got that I mean I'm gonna do whatever God tells me to do but you see I made up my mind that in the midst of time it's the hardest time we should be free to draw beyond our beyond human comprehension because the Bible said everything name has to bout the name of Jesus did you rebuke the coronavirus today there's some people and I don't mean this to sound rude there's some people don't have enough faith to get up so you know what you do instead of criticizing them you add your faith to them you just begin to speak for them as well as speak for yourself so I want you to write this down you must know our Savior through faith through love and through experience see Paul says that I'm a read that verse 12 again for I know in whom I have believed and am persuaded that he is able to keep the which I have committed unto him against that day now what did he commit he committed his life he understood Jesus so not listening and you must know our Savior through faith through love and through experience see I know in whom I have believed I am persuaded it don't make no difference what happens but it makes all the difference in what I believe see because I know I can change what I see by the stuff that they can't see because now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not see or you see that so we when you understand that and I've had that experience I've said it so many times I gotta say to you I've had many opportunities to fail I just don't take any you see what I'm saying I mean I could you know just get the Milagro Siham will pay for it I'm not he didn't ask me to pay for it he asked me to believe for it or somebody write that down that oughta make you shout he didn't ask me to pay for it he asked me to believe for it so right now here's the test to believe and they're from believing to knowing it from going to receiving soon I'm saying for I know in whom I have believed I'm persuaded we said I have to give him something to keep I like what Paul said at the end of his life I mean they got a guy with an axe in his hand go cut his head off he said said oh god this is gonna hurt oh Jesus you know he said I fought a good fight I finished my course and I kept the faith ladies and gentlemen just to the finest ministries and Jesse and kept the plague gonna keep the faith I had one message support you catch the corona virus and die then I'll finish this sermon in heaven but I got a feeling I ain't dying there's a long way away from that kind of stuff I'm believing with Jesus to come in the rapture God why not I mean you're gonna believe something you might as well believe that you see how can you say that through experience I've had the devil do everything you can I've been shot at three times they tried the knife man they tried to electrocute me twice I've been down in three airplane crashes Lord Jesus my I mean you name it is come at me I've had preachers because they didn't understand my jaw criticized me I had ABC CBS NBC Fox HBO Inside Edition Good Morning America coming eating my lunch like crazy but I'm still here Wow cuz great is he was at me and in you then he was in the world or you understand it now how did you know it's gonna work how do you know it's gonna happen oh I know him through faith I know him through love and I know him through experience you see right this time we must know him we must know what he can do we must know what he has promised see ya just being religious don't mean you know the Lord see everybody wants Jesus as Savior but very few want him as Lord so you must know him let a lot of people say I know gesture the pants oh you don't know you don't you know about me you might have seen me on television you might have seen me in person maybe you've come to one of my meetings now Cathy knows me see my brother-in-law and his wife a Higa I Ricky who they know me you say I got brown and Pia back if they know me how do you know someone you fellowship with them have you been fellowship with the Lord are you or have you been thinking about how bad is good is getting don't shout me down on a preaching good see that's how you know people you go out to dinner the Taco Bell I mean they got people in my a are you doing Gloria that guy's some people look at me said Oh preacher so glad to see you I know what they wanted they wanted to hear words and I have complied with what the governor says in but the president said but you know what we are very essential people i heard the governor of new york say that if there's any psychologist or any therapist would you please call us at volunteer so many people are under such mental stress you know why because they keep hitting i mean we had our someone else died today we had this i mean i mean it keeps going man i'm not against the media for but God's sake let me tell me how many people passed it tell me how many people recovered come on you've got to get all the lines you got all those people that did all the ones that got that been testified tell me the ones bless that went past the coronavirus that said hey I fought this thing instead how about Tom and Rita Hank Hanks I think there's me then we're not straight with it got it but they're still here I like to hear that you know I'm saying I like to hear the good side not just the bad side so a preacher like myself they're wanting us to help people in their lives because we have to do it there's no other trust is what God has called him but but Jesse how come you don't get discouraged because I know him I know him in a blessing and I know I'm in a suffering I know what he can do who he can do all things through Christ we can do it he can do it and then I know what he promised over 7,000 promises in the Bible ladies and gentlemen which one do you need today over 7,000 which one do you need today is it spiritual is it physical is it financial you can have them all all the promises all the promises all the promises of God are yes and amen which means so be it so I just take a promise every day hallelujah why for I know in whom I have believed and I said what creates that assurance confidence see assurance is a cheering and a sustaining expense myself up in the spirit I preach to myself I'm assured assurances of cheering and sustaining experience it enlightens and it is enlightened and inquired in the knowledge of God how did I get in there surance I was enlightened by it by in the knowledge of God wisdom is the ability to use knowledge wisdom is the principal thing see you get wisdom you get understanding but you don't know that till the tough times come anybody can shout and praise God scream and holler when they got billions in the bank let me tell you something about money I've seen some people die cancer they had more money you could shake a stick one of the greatest men I think God ever putting shoe leather was mr. Sam Walton a Walmart I was a good man I never met him first but you could tell it was a good man he was just a normal man drivers pickup truck to the store thank you for shopping more at Mart come on in welcome to Walmart but all the money ahead couldn't stop that cancer you understand what I'm saying but I know one who can I know one who can heal the sick and raise the dead and cast out Devils I know one that's greater than anything you could ever imagine greater than the coronavirus and brother he's more than a scientist he's more than that he's the king of kings arosa shared the lily of the valley the bright and Morning Star he's everything we said he is and he's proving it ladies and gentlemen so assurances are cheering and sustaining experience it is enlightened and acquired in the knowledge of God you see the people said let's just stay happy well I have many opportunity to be said I just don't take any which brings me to this next point you must have a conviction about living and a conviction about life let me say it again ready down you must have a conviction about living and a conviction about life what is living living means you're trusting living means you trust you know what Trust is it's an investment you've invested your life in that's what Paul said I don't care if I'm in jail I don't care if they beat me five times it rots I don't care if I've been in the deep a night in a day can you imagine floating in the ocean a night or in the sea at night and a day is sure don't look good that it ah but when you've invested in the trust of God you see that's what livings about living means you're trusting it's an investment into what God said we could do that's what I do now if I go but what I see and power when board is easy go around now watch it if you don't drown I'm pretty sure your mind said there's some sharks out here hope there ain't gonna be you gonna get bit it's up with something crazy going to you man let me tell you some of my thoughts that are not good don't speak them why they will die on born that will abort themselves listen to me I've had those kind of thoughts come in my mind you will not be able to pay your staff you're gonna have to shut down your ministry I said no no that but you must be talking about yourself you can't pay your staff and your ministers already been shut down when Jesus crushed your head you see what I'm saying fine know in whom I have believed and then I'm persuaded Lord Jesus and when you're persuaded anybody can change your mind see now that's assurance you must have a conviction about living what is that that means living your trusting and then you're investing in that then you must have a conviction about life what does that mean life is an opportunity not a risk write that down life is an opportunity and not a risk my faith is not a risk my faith is a relief see I've tested positive for failure I'm not bowing down to that image of fear or you hear what I'm saying the virus is so small I can't see it I don't need to see it I got something more powerful that I can't see killing something that you can't see and that's faith yeah but if it's not faith and in a killer coronavirus in a second because I don't believe that then you have another choice you can die I don't mean that to be rude I don't mean that to be arrogant oh my god you better choose life you see so life is an opportunity and not a risk see so I have an opportunity to preach the gospel and not a risk I've been around do many this these hands that placed on people in 44 years of preaching how many people have had flus colds cancers diabetes heart trouble crippling arthritis infectious disorders I mean my lord I mean every kind of flu you could think of from swine to Hong Kong and everything else boy and I believe in washing my hands I believe in all that comes don't miss us then I believe it all the things they telling us to do but I tell you with that soap and water I said great is he using me no weapon formed against me going Frost my lord I heard a man they used to be a priest on Fox that his name is they called him pastor Jonathan I think and he said my god when you wash in your hand as if I takes about 20 seconds say the Our Father prayer that's good my god I know a lot of prayers I'm gonna do so now when I and I've walked my hands they go hey devil why is this a great Azizah delivery but the devil you don't know what to do when you have an opportunity in life it's an opportunity and it's not a risk are you hearing what I'm saying that's what I'm talking about and when you've tested positive for faith nothing by any means nothing by any means can hurt you I'm people say well I tried that try no getting nothing done I didn't try to come here today I didn't try to marry my wife who I am celebrating come June the 6th of this year 50 years go ahead give me a hand car there's only a few of you but blessed God give me a hand clap I saw something so funny the other day one of our bass players joy sent this the cab I don't carry a cell phone you know what I don't carry a cell phone look at Kathryn I don't I want a little peace in my life but she does you know so joy sent her something funny she said brother Jesse would like this this is black man like you there's looking like yeah and also he said press the button and he starts talking to man says listen you're going half the self-quarantine you and your wife and your child there's two plans plan a and Plan B plan a is you gotta get in your house yourself quarantine they would you and your wife and your child and Plan B the guy said I take B you said your BB I got even it would be was I thought that was so funny Lord yeah I don't want just being the same out all the time you love your children you know and you love your wife but sometimes mean anything you want to spread the wings a little bit and vice versa you said I'll take B how about take plan a and B why not have it all don't shout me down when I'm preaching good listen to me why can't you have it all God is able to make all grace abound toward you that you always having all sufficiency in all things may abound to every good work and you say anything about the economy he said God is able God is able now when I say God is April I'm saying that because Paul said I know in whom I have believed in I'm persuaded that he is able to keep what I've committed so what I have done and my life is committed the budget adjusted the planets minister the budget of Covenant Church everything to him my whole life in 44 years of full-time ministry I have not had scandals I'm a clean man be your holy for I am holy I've had many opportunities to get into sin I said no you know why cuz I'm not a forgiving sinner people say you're just a novi no I'm not I am a new creature in Christ all things are passed away so when an old thing comes by my way I just let it all itself out there get out of the way I'm not dealing with old things I'm dealing with behold look all things become new are you hearing what I'm saying so you must have a conviction about living and a conviction about life living means you're trusting it means it's an investment that's what Paul is saying life is an opportunity and not a risk I want you to listen to this most people not all of them most people's instinct is to avoid danger most people's instinct is to avoid danger my instinct is to overcome it my instinct is to have it done all the stands stand therefore instead of running away I don't run I don't move I don't mean that prideful they are arrogant because most people's instinct move no man let's get a witness thing and you know and I'm but no no my instinct is to overcome it why because he could run from something you're gonna meet it order another road somewhere down some way down in your life so if something comes in your way you defeat it that day so I tell all our local state and federal officials you tell a coronavirus the fight you want to fight you gonna get I'm gonna tell you something I heard the president said I heard the governor say we're in a war we have characters in wars I wish we didn't oh my god I wish we didn't but my god anybody that stand up for what's right and they die for a cause that's something to be remembered about God says the greatest crown in the whole Bible go book look in the book of Revelation is the martyrs crown and who wants to die nobody wants to die I'll show you how much your body was created to live your body rejects death I mean they didn't put you on with it you know machines to keep you alive yet your body's fighting tell because it was never created to die but sin came in and destroyed but ladies and gentlemen Jesus has come back hallelu in the Bible go said Oh death where is your sting oh great well you know it's kind of stuff the last enemy to be destroyed so most people instinct is to avoid danger my instinct is to overcome it a fight you want a fight you're gonna get people I've had people tell me give me some nice comfort just you will eat it well I've learned this if we're gonna take something for Jesus it ain't gonna be easy it's not easy if you look at this church today look at all this around it's beautiful it was built debt-free to the glory of God till the glory of the Lord you owe one dime on any of this nothing wrong with borrowing money but I saw a scripture that said oh no man anything but to love him and I thought how could I do that so man the war started in my mind then three banks here in the city of New Orleans said you can't do it people said you can't do it but I kept him out a part of my mind you can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth you Gradius he was in you no weapon formed against your gonna prosper I made you more than a conqueror vowed before you who could be against you I said say to that mountain be thou removed be thou cast in the sea and not doubt my heart believe those things what I say shall come to pass I'm gonna have whatsoever I said so I start saying what I want instead of what I had I start saying what I couldn't see so I could get what I couldn't see into the scene room because now faith is some things hoped for the evidence of things not see watch this for by it the elders obtained a good report are you hearing what I'm saying here today so most people's instinct is to avoid danger my instinct is to overcome it see God's grace strengthens weak hands and feeble knees sometimes you have weak hands sometime you have feeble need the Apostle Peter the Catholic Church calls him the first pope my god when your life's on the line huh they so aren't you one of them guy one him with ADA Galilee and you don't you follow him he said I neither know no understanding oh what a shot what happened what happened right there we can't we can't feeble knees oh but you know the church would leave yeah yeah nothing but not Jesus Christ Jesus prayed for you Jesus prayed for Peter he said Satan desired to sift you but I prayed for you my god then one day after they were I mean at they died and resurrected Peters place boy did that change Peters mind so sometimes we slip sometimes we get weak but I don't preach the weakness I don't preach the mistake I preach the answer yes it's recorded why so you never have to do it again I like preaching answers instead of preaching problems that's what I'm telling the media so I'm telling everybody yeah we know we got it we got an enemy here now let's let's attack it head-on and whatever it takes you know I heard a guy a person that just last night just attacking these kids on spring break look how stupid the other day they were out on the beaches did y'all see that they're all on the beaches of Florida and when two people go on create they say how dumb can they be let me help y'all let me help you yeah that's a dumb thing but say you forgot what it is to be young young is invincible I'm going swimming I thought it's don't it's stupid but would you like to be young again huh come on face it you know cuz young don't last long so instead of just condemning them and criticize them Lord just remember when you was young when the last time you did anything right when you was young Oh what you learning you experiencing life you do you blow it you do some things cease I just looked at my thought I wish I was 18 then I thought no I don't man Vietnam wanted me man I mean I graduated from high school on a May the 31st 1967 got a letter from the army from the government on June the 2nd gentlemen oh when I was young I remember telling a full-bird camera I just want to play music let me play music let me just do couple of hit records and then I'll go let me be Elvis shut up boy and you know what he had enough sense to know I was young so they're like don't criticize of just spiral because one day they're gonna be our age and say sure wish I could have went back there when I was young you see so when you understand some but but man let me have to call you that are not saved you want to get young get saved you can stay young Lord Jesus and and in eternity Pony time the age will no longer have its power over you anymore you'll be giving a new body God's grace strengthens week's pants and feeble knees and Peter became a great apostle now I want you to write this down Genesis chapter 1 verse 1 would you turn to this real quickly I want to go to the page about page 1 of the Bible it says in the beginning God who God evolution know God in the beginning God created the heavens in the earth and the earth was up form and void and darkness was on the face of the deep stark I tell you ladies and gentlemen and the Spirit of Lord God moved upon the waters one of the Hebrew words that he flooded and God said let there be light watch this and there was like action in the original Hebrew he said light B I noticed something about God he recorded the darkness he recorded the darkness he recorded the darkness but he didn't say this in the beginning I created the heavens in the air there it was that forming Lord God look how dark it is out here look how dark it is out here no he didn't push the darkness he pushed the light all of us need to start pushing the light ladies and gentlemen push the light what is the light Jesus is the light of the world Satan comes to kill steal and destroy we come to give life that's what Jesus said to the full till it overflowed so I tell all our scientists at the CDC we thank God for what you do push the light push the light push the light we push in coronavirus we push in the dark we push them to know we're not denying the darkness we know that push the light push the light that's what I'm doing here today I'm here to encourage you not discourage you I'm gonna push the light turn on your heart light you understand what I'm saying push the light you get enough light my god in fact I person so I doctor told me this the other day you get past 78 degrees with 100% of militate my god many said viruses start dying well but it will we're in pretty good shape when we in south Louisiana yes I'm saying it's getting hotter by the day are you hearing what I'm saying jack so it's saying this we're gonna get a virus now well we don't know he's gonna take us two years it's an adorable we're gonna have to wait right here and a half no no you do what you got to do you do what you you push the light and they're all as leaders instead of telling somebody to hit that feel you get in then you walk with them side by side you take a hit you take the hit you keep on going see that's what the gospel is all about you see so push the light write it down so you can understand this the God you know is an unchanging and unchangeable whose loyalty you can count on I won't - he's unchanging and he's unchangeable and you can count on his loyalty but you gotta push the light you get around me I'm gonna knock every bit of shadow darkness out of you cuz I'm gonna push the light I'm gonna look at you say light B I must look at that coronaviruses in the name of Jesus light B that will be destroyed do you see what I'm saying I'm gonna use the spiritual way I'm gonna use the natural way I'm gonna use the medical way I believe in doctors I believe in hospitals I believe in all that kind of stuff but instead of preparing for the word and I understand you prepare for the worst and believe for the best I understand all that kind of stuff but I'm not believing for the worst I'm believing for the blessed I'm gonna encourage myself in the Lord Jesus I pushed the like he said light be and light was then creation began to take place and for you know what my life was everywhere in the oceans on the ground grass trees everything beget why God was pushing light the reason why I'm preaching here this morning I'm pushing light you understand like last week on one of my little podcast what if you want to call those they but I made up my mind I'm gonna push this light that's what he did he said light beat he didn't say his dog got it he said it's my god my way we've had 15,000 people died oh well we already had another hundred thousand people that have tested positive oh no man I'm not denying that push the light if you'll push the light the light will come on and the darkness will flee with somebody in this bill to give me a hand cliff like all more claps of myself push the light the God you know is an unchanging and unchangeable whose laws that you can count on who Lord and I did I want this know did I see it coming no no one has seen this coming none my god just three weeks ago we had the hottest economy in the world I mean the Dow Jones the dust was at over 29,000 we were having problems finding people to get a job because we had positions with no people to fill up saying you can't rely on money you can't rely on the secular world you have to rely on God because God is light if we want to look at the Sun we have to actually we can't just look at it where it's so bright so turn on your heart light let it be so bright that mark I wanna live to be the coronavirus that's coming up with a little bit tennis get out your little done and just zap it with the pop of it as it comes to I am tested positive for faith just nail him to the wall why cuz you got enough like to see him I know that's funny but it's true glory that God you see but Jesse but what you're gonna do write this down you must be prepared to go where you cannot see you must be prepared to go where you cannot see and follow wherever he leads God says we don't know where to go keep walking faith is what would its faith go as far as you can go and then take one more step I heard Paul crowds say that many years ago I love that go as far as you can go then take one more step see you gotta be able to believe that God can hit howbeit when the spirit he can help you howbeit when the Spirit of Truth has come he will guide you what in all truth so you must be prepared to go where you cannot see and follow wherever he leads whatever I shouldn't be here today my wife should be preaching today this church should be full of people now people all at home my look you know what you weren't made to stay at home it on Sunday let me get help you you weren't made to stay at home when the football games on I mean many many people ever go to the Superdome you know you'd like to get out we are people that love we are we're species that loves to touch do you see what I'm trying to say she so you go where he leads so in other words I was supposed to be preaching somewhere but I couldn't I had to actually not cancel my visionnaire come imma just reschedule it why so we could stay six foot apart it's hard to stay six foot away from somebody you love my dad six foot especially if your grandparent may you want to hug them kids don't you there's just something about because you were never granted till they were born and they are gonna make you great when their kids go you see what I'm saying but you got to go wherever it leads so you do everything in that hour you know to do but don't forget the supernatural because that's what a power is that's where that power is you must be prepared to go where you cannot see and follow wherever he leads let me let me close with this ladies and gentlemen we must not have any wavering or hesitation or misgiving concerning your faith I believe by preaching today I am you can be tested positive for your faith you can't have any wavering he can't have any hesitation beware of the language of hesitation or misgiving concerning your faith because faith is with gotcha here faith thing will get you where you need to be in every area of your life how do I know that I'll read one more scripture Romans chapter 8 if you turn with me to it Romans chapter 8 guys I guess I should have gave you those uh those verses here that they're doing that live streaming I'm getting better I'm used to they streaming live and I said laughing Romans chapter 8 let me show you how I persuaded Paul was Romans chapter 8 verses oh they got a new Bible here verses 37 says nay and all these things we are more than conquerors through him that love this for I am persuaded there's that word again that neither death nor life nor Angels nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come nor height nor depth look at that nor any other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord but did he cut did he close it up there you could read it like this nay and all these things I'm more than a conqueror over the virus because Christ love this for I'm persuaded that death will not come my way my life would be greater than I never I have a thought if an angel comes it doesn't say what God says I won't hear him or principle for devil shows up I'll cast him out or he's little bit demon hips or little powers I'll get rid of them to know the things that are pressing because if any dollars that that I've lost on my getting back seven full and the sums of Satan's house nor things to come I don't care what's happening in the future nor height I don't care how big it gets know how deep it gets or any other creature that ever might want to present shall be able to separate us no it's it is he was so powerful in his faith he start putting you in it he could separate me but he said separate us think about that are you being tested positive so let me just say this find out and you're the Kabul Shukla Thank You Holy Ghost whatever amount of money that you need that you desire that you want you that are out of a job I mean who wants to file for unemployment who wants to barely get by thank God we have it you after you finish watching this you ought to make you a list of what you need what you desire what you want in a financial area you that are out of a job okay second one Romo number two all those that have the coronavirus I will pledge to pray for them daily I don't need to know I'm gonna help them see put that on your list that will cleanse this world of viruses thank God for doctors you pray for those medical people out there it tired ladies and gentlemen you understand what I'm saying you need to pray for President Trump what do you like him or not it's not time to fight here it's not time to get speak evil of each other it isn't it's not time to ask stupid and foolish questions now and I'm gonna prove that what I just said it's not time for that how do I know that go back to second Timothy chapter one second Timothy chapter one trying to be a little teaching here to help you second Timothy chapter one I told you this in verse twelve if I know in whom I have believed in this way that he's able to keep that which I have committed them against that day verse thirteen I'm a close to this whole fast the form of sound words which thou has heard of me in faith many you tested positive for faith and love which is in Christ Jesus that good thing which is committed under the keep by our Holy Ghost that's how you do it which dwelleth in a whole faster form of sound words I make a pledge to you today that I'll not speak anything that's not sound concerning this I make a pledge to you I do I'm gonna speak what the word says even if my mind is crowded with ugly thoughts I'm gonna let him die unborn I'm 11 abort themselves you see what I'm saying I hold fast because I know in whom I have believed and I'm persuaded I will not bound that bow down to that image I will not bow down to it my God if I died with my last breath I'd say by Jesus stripes I am I am that I am I'm gonna say it I don't care if people think I'm nuts they can think what they want I know what God thinks of me because I made a deposit in him he has proven his Gospel too much to me for me to doubt it he's been so loyal to me in the midst of great persecution he never once told me I couldn't do something never when I messed up instead of beaten me he reached out and gave me grace he blessed me with mercy when I wanted something he blessed me I was able to call him my shepherd I shall not want Oh God is so good he said what I'm saying see the reason why Paul could say that when he was in jail because the compelling power of Jesus was so so overwhelmed him no matter what he suffered no matter what he saw he said God is able no matter what happened nothing and when he got knocked down off of a donkey on a road to Damascus you could see it right there that was the breaking point instead of being this saw this bloodthirsty persecutor he said Lord what will you have me to do I said that yesterday hard what will you need Oh what do you want from me he said I want your faith you're strong Jesse you got joy I seen you walk through these fires it my daughter said daddy you're the strong as men I was it no I'm not you know I think it's a lot stronger than me president Trump Lord Jesus there are tax every day now I'm not trying to tell you to be ever a Trumper or never a trumpet which I born you want now I'm just saying my god man what a president Trump if you ever see this I don't care if you're Republican Democrat independent i'ma get up but I'm gonna be like Moses they held his arms up so I'm I ask everyone that's watching today let's hold up President Trump and all the people are involved in this school in this virus I asked the media holdfast to some form sound questions not dump stuff let's hold the arms up because if you remember in that day when Moses army go down they would start losing that war why that's dissension that's strife I will not have it in my life push the light push the light see I don't care if you're a Democrat I really appreciate it but the government of California said and the governor said good things and they told him separate from political views a president Trump but you know what they had enough sense to know when you act war you fight a good fight but not with your fellow soldiers you fight the enemy now I don't want nobody dying but I am a history buff and I read all a wonderful book the other days but this thick on President Eisenhower when he was a commander when he was a supreme Allied commander of the Allied forces in Europe or that was a tough decision to go on d-day and I want everyone to listen to me all you lead us he had the reports how many were gonna die it was overwhelming the weather wasn't good everything looked bad he's a young boys this is my grandfather this is my daddy if it if he had gone but what he saw he would never least it he would have never done it but he knew that Nazism had to be stopped he knew people would die yeah he knew it casualties the war but he released that phenomenal force on Omaha Beach on d-day a lot of men died but a lot of them lived think about what this world would be if it was under Nazism in the Thousand Year reign like it said who would kill you if you happen to be a Jew or if your witness is smart or an intelligent maybe it's the next person killing you too or if you had a child that happened to have a crippling disease I'll kill him - kill her - that's what Satan does eisenhower had the world on his shoulders FDR in Washington DC was in a wheelchair but those two men got together Winston Churchill was on the side of him Stalin of all people my god knew that Hitler would kill him too they came together and defeated the Axis powers I wish nobody would have died but in honor of them as I said earlier in one of my podcast that has what he called him those things I went stand in the Pacific Theater where they bare it all this bin that died and I stood out there thousands of thousands of them who wanted to be me who wanted to live who wanted to have a family who wanted to have children but because we were more important to them this great generation they call I'm standing behind his pulpit today for what those people did in the Korean War - in Vietnam in the Gulf Wars did I know any of those people no but I knew that they were willing to do whatever it takes so I asked our fellow local state and federal officials let's do whatever it takes don't forget the supernatural because one day you know what I thought of in it and the punchbowl there and I've been in Arlington Cemetery I said one day they're coming out the grave that dead dead dead in Christ call rise it coming out they come in out ladies and gentlemen think about that they gonna stand before an Almighty God the way I pray for them is this Lord they made the supreme sacrifice so my dad didn't have to die so that I could be born that's worth remembering so I tell all these young people amen I love it we do you do you say stupid silly things it's okay but Jesse's for you I like you but as you grow older now even if you younger go see those places because that's what makes an American an American it's the people that have made supreme sacrifices I'm saying all that to say this Jesus died on a cross the greatest and the most supreme sacrifice that those guys that lost their lives would be able to come out that grave in live again think of my tat ladies and gentlemen think about that for God so loved the world he gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth him shouldn't perish did say would perish shouldn't perish but have everlasting life to all you people that have lost family members of the coronavirus I pray for you as of right now no one in my family's has it or died of it thank God so let's do what we have to do let's believe let's pull ourselves up by the bootstraps and put this nation back on its feet spiritually physically and financially that's why I told you to make you list spiritual physical and financial and let's don't speak evil of each other but by ready to go into the presidential election we don't need any junk from any side till this thing is defeated well let me help you it's already been defeated cording to the Word of God it's already been defeated all we got to do is receive the prize and the prize is people coming out of those ventilators healed touched and blessed by God's powerful word so can I pray father in Jesus name I pray for a healing to go through wherever they watching this into the hospitals and I commend the coronavirus that died now in the name of Jesus I pray for those medical people that are working so hard in all those hours to give them strength I pray for the scientific minds of the CDC the doctors or they come up with vaccines and whatever I pray for the churches Lord they don't run on air they need finance they do they have employees just like anybody else I ask you to bless him in the city bless him in the field bless him going in and bless him going out I thank you for it lord I call those things that be not as though they were fine knowing whom I have believed I say with the Apostle Paul said I'm persuaded that he is able to keep what I have committed to him and I've committed my life in my faith yes I have tested positive I've tested positive for faith thank you Lord in Jesus name
