grew up I remember Jessica's grandfather Roy Hardin where's Jesse she got translated and Jessica walked with God and was no more oh I wouldn't like that but Jessica's grandfather Roy Harlan used to tell us stories I feel the Lord this is a difficult open and announcement he would tell us stories about being at a meeting with Lester Sumrall the Jeffrey Brothers and Smith when he was a little kid Smith Wigglesworth and I said what do you do he said I sat on the floor and listened that's what I felt like today you know people become much more famous and more general like once they go on to be with the Lord there's a mystique to that they seem to carry once they go on to be with the Lord and the trap is not to recognize them while they're with us and this morning we had a just amazing tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m. Lou Engel will be here so you probably want to wear a helmet with a face guard and hearing Lou or being with Lou it's like having a flame thrower in your face from

want to encourage you please support TCT it's an awesome ministry reaching the world well I'm extremely honored tonight to to finally get to the moment that I've been thinking about for a long time Pastor John R naught has been a friend of our family since the early 70s Pastor John and and obviously the whole world has been touched through the Toronto blessing and he's carried something that we need which I believe is breakthrough in the holy spirit and this region will never be the same after tonight I said this region will never be the same and we we will never be the same after tonight amen so I'm asking all of you to please stand and welcome Pastor John or not Jesus and what a joy to be here with all of you my goodness the crowd has grown significantly I think once we got into Friday night so welcome to all the ones that are just joining us here this is amazing and I think I'm especially thankful for the honoring and the presence of the Holy Spirit who's with us here can we just kind of open your heart to him and open your hands to him even and just invite him to come and minister to you tonight say something Holy Spirit I would really love it if you just caught up with me and revolutionised me all over again on the inside because we recognize that our nation's need a massive move of the Spirit of God to bring them to Christ and bring them into health and wholeness in all that he brings so we need you tonight Holy Spirit we need you tonight Lord Jesus we need you tonight Abba Father for all the good things you want to do well hi everybody I've been enjoying meeting many of you and it's always good to meet new friends in the anointing isn't it it's just so precious Carol and I were here a few years ago I know three or four I met this shift and Kathy and just there was a hard connection back then then having it again just such a delight to reconnect with but we didn't come here just to make friends that what did you come for and the funny part of that is so we could talk about it and we can pray for it and we can want it and everything else but in actual fact you can't really do it it's something that that he does that but I hasten to say he's very faithful about it but it always puts me on the edge you know like Lord are are you gonna come again in a special way to change hearts and change lives and by faith the answer is yes but I always love it when it's backed up with a whole string of really good testimonials about what happened to people how many have a story about how the Holy Spirit got ahold of you one day and everything changed just give Heaven away right you shared a little bit about what happened to us we we came through a series of wonderful relationships you know getting to getting born again in a Billy Graham crusade for me and then from there find again from Pentecostals there was more and then hearing about Kathryn Kuhlman and you know just what an honor to be in the town where she had church every Sunday I mean this is a special place right here but two dear friends of mine got empowered in her meetings being built pranker who you probably haven't heard of Bill's like an undiscovered treasure of supernatural miracles you know because he spends most of his time going to the Arctic and the Eskimos in northern Russia and everything else cuz anyway so there's Bill and then Benny Hinn and and it brought the whole thing a lot closer to us and we began to encounter the experiences of the Holy Spirit and the testimonies of what was happening and and then we found out about the Ministry of John Wimber and that just helped tremendously from from realizing that listen this is not just for the special people who were set apart from before they were born this is for every Christian to get in on this thing and see my mother hadn't told me about the Angels that had said to her that I was gonna be in full-time ministry and all that one day you get that tongue-in-cheek she never had that experience so I was content to just be a business man or whatever to be supportive even though I went three years to Bible School and tried to get myself ready but we came back from a mission trip Carolina and heads is specific instructions from the Lord to start a charismatic church in her hometown Stratford Ontario it's an hour and a half west of Toronto which we did that and we heard about revival in Argentina and we went there with Edsel vocem but let me back up a bit the the things we learned planting our church know how else you could learn them but just get in there and make your own mistakes and and have a go how many here would love to pastor a church one day one how many would link to how many would like to plant or begin a new church a new ministry somewhere you see we're a little tentative we think we would but how do you get started and that's what I didn't know but I'd land enough homegroups and everything else that I just said all right well we're gonna go for it then but it won't be like a Wednesday night kind of thing it's gonna be Sunday morning I want to know who's with us and so we went there and we gathered like I don't know 35 people or something on the first Sunday in somebody's house and the way we went and we started winning all these young people but see I could not seem to I couldn't get them it was difficult disciple in them I'd be gone you read the Bible you know what it says what's the problem let's just do what it says and I found out that very often the the wounds at the heart or so deep that self-discipline in and of itself is not going to cut it that we all need self-discipline that's what discipleship is but that introduced us to inner healing or healing of the heart and one more component we got was a revelation of the Father's love and we discovered that one of the fundamental things problems with most people including myself is that they don't really know how much God loves them and so they've been to church and they have performance put on them come on do what it says but but it's it's it's a duty it's it's it's a push you know and and so when we had a guy named Jack winter come and teach us about the Father's love it was just revolutionising because he love is not something that is taught only there has to be an encounter and an impartation of that heart-to-heart remember that verse where Jesus said no one really knows the son except the father no one knows the Father except the Son and then he said and the one to who the son chooses to reveal him I don't know why I'd missed that I'd read the Bible so much but it just never got that bad because see I would have said that love of God was like like doc but I didn't know it was the fundamental doctrine in fact if you said you know all the different teachings in the Bible you can write a book on each one but actually the love of God is the Shelf that all the books would sit on it's fundamental I had a friend one time say John did you know there was something more profound in our Christian faith than the cross so I said to him well really what would that be Jack he said that would be the love of God I said okay where do you get it he said John 3:16 God so loved the world that he gave his son in the cross happened and so we through the 80s as we developed our church we we've learned about having this encounter revelation of the Father's love and then the healing because he you become secure in it a little bit and it frees you up so that now you can admit that maybe there's one or two things the matter with you that you need to get healed up and repent up but prior to that you know you're protecting and here you know push back what do you mean there's something wrong with me who are you to judge me that kind of stuff and so we were we were really doing well with everybody's a part of this let's all get our hearts healed up let's have a revelation of the Father's love let's go signs wonders and miracles and all of that and Carol and I in summer of 1992 went to a Benny Hinn meeting reconnected with him and you know we saw the lame walk the blind see deaf here it was just a fantastic night of worship and miracles and then he invited us into the green room after the meeting and we we went in Carroll myself and another friend Kim DuPont and as we walked through the door he's still under the anointing still bristling in it and he lunges at us he isn't the Spirit is on you you know and and so you know I recover because I'm not one who's particularly susceptible is that the right term I wish I was but Carroll on the other hand you know it used to be that Banting was anywhere near who she would be the first one to fall I tell her she's like my canary in the coal mine you know gas is around any work you know if she's at first one out and so but she got absolutely completely blasted by the Holy Spirit and I carried her to the par but I'm saying baby just stay under it don't try and get it together this is what we want this is this is this is this is what puts it all together actually it's the presence of the holy spirit we have to have so don't try and get it together I'll get you home don't worry we stayed with a friend and in Brampton Ontario that night and she just shook and buzz the entire night and we said God we have to have this and so he spoke back to me and said right if you wanted this I'll give you two things to do number one I want your mornings in prayer number two spend time with an anointed men and women it seemed like how are we gonna do that we've got at that time by this point in time we're running to churches we had one in Stratford one in Toronto we would do them in the morning drive to Toronto do them in the afternoon and we only had a couple of staff and but we said yes what do you do well we we start reading devotional books Andrew Murray is one of my favorites you know he's one where you you read you read a couple of lines and then you cry for you know post like that we read good morning Holy Spirit we'd worship together we'd read the Bible together would and the next thing you know two three four hours had gone by and and we had well over a year of that and but November of 93 we had an opportunity to go to Argentina with all this in the background hungry and thirsting after more of him and you know when you get into that mode which I'm very much looking forward to getting back into in this next few weeks you you it becomes easier and easier and your heart is longing for those days when you can just get unbusy and get in the presence of God and worship Him and pray and love him and cry before him I haven't haven't had him spoke he spoke so many wonderful intimate things into my heart in that season anyway we wanted to see the revival in Argentina we went there and it was great and transformed prisons transformed cities I mean just it was just so hot and so electric what was going on but there was a bit of an add-on and the program were cloudy a freezin held a meeting for us and he prayed throw them all the Westerners and stuff and you know people were just getting absolutely overwhelmed by the touch of the Holy Spirit and Carole of course was completely legless I had to carry her home literally that time get her on the bus that dick of the hotel two nights in a row but anyway he he prayed for me but you know sometimes when people are rough it's kind of you're trying to work out was was that the Holy Spirit or did I just get it pushed over or what happened here how many have ever been pushed over before see was it helpful now see where it gets confusing is when with people in their exuberance okay they push you over but the anointing was really on it anyway and so I'm kind of getting up on my knees thinking God you know I come all this way I want the really really want you but you know just helped me here Lord and cloudy a wheeled around he's nice and he says to me you want it so I said oh yeah I want it alright yes I want it but inside I'm thinking why do you think I you know ran it up on our credit card through all this flew all this way down here yeah yeah first I wanted how many wanna tonight you say want it we really mean we want him to come and so he said three words that changed my life then take it and I had this moment where I realized that there needs to be a proactive part to us receiving the Holy Spirit you can't just be passive you see I've had a lot of wonderful people pray for me and Benny Hinn is great for me I don't know how many times trying his best to impart something to him to me and I'm like that you know an old but it was because you see if you remain passive you're just kind of there well you know I can't make it happen so over to you God if you want to do it then Here I am you know kind of thing but see there needs to be a reaching out from us and I had a moment where I realized that I needed to reach for it then it's right there if you want it you're gonna reach for it take it so I reached out in the spirit somehow in some way I find it difficult to explain but I took a hold of that and in my heart there was like a click of faith and a click of the spirit just shoot and I knew something had changed and so we went home full of expectation and Carol led two people to Christ on the airplane it's never happened before or since like that and we went right to a conference a leaders conference that we were part of and we heard about another guy Randy Clark who had been similarly touched in a rodney howard-browne meeting and I knew Randy casually and I called him up and said I want you to come I hear something happened how soon can you come in and he's like well gosh John it only happened at once and I've never been out of the country you want me to go to Canada and you and you know so it's just two people trying to kind of wrap up a little bit so they could go for it hey Randy came and we were both so tentative he told his story and then he said if you if you would like prayer I'm happy to pray for you so just come on up everything had been totally pretty much normal up to that point it was crackling in the air it but but pretty normal up to that point and but when people went to get out of their chairs that's when it was like heaven open and the Holy Spirit fell on that group of people about not a not a large group on a Thursday night about a hundred and thirty of us and it just exploded in the room with people falling laughing shaking yelling crying and and carrying on like that I mean and I'm like oh my gosh what just happened here and that was our beginning and I learned what it meant when in the in the Bible when it says the Holy Spirit fell on us see when he falls on you it's not imperceptible it's like a piano it wasn't personal injury generally but still you can't get up and we were inundated with all these various manifestations of the spirit that I just had no grid form and that could be your story right now you just think of all I want more of the Holy Spirit but I don't want all that baggage that those guys in Toronto have you know I don't want the out of control stuff and you may have how many have questions about manifestation we all did I certainly did and you want to know what it's what it's all about and so what what what what you need to conclude I think is this that if God is going to touch you how many one got to touch alright if God's going to touch you the miracle is that you live through that right because we're talking about the one who said let there be light and the Sun exploded into reality and a whole bunch of stars just popped up in our Sun is small compared to most of the other ones you know if he's going to touch you the miracle is that you lived through so where did we get the idea that we can take it or leave it you know and I traced it back to what I would now call it false teaching that went something like this the Holy Spirit is a perfect gentleman he will never force you to do anything against your will who came up with that let's see Zachariah the father John the Baptist couldn't couldn't talk for nine months because of the anointing yeah the Apostle Paul was blinded for three days because he had a divine encounter all kinds of fantastic thing Daniel chapter 10 Daniel is shaking so bad there's no strength in him the angel has to strengthen him the angel of the Lord so that he can stand up on his feet and and he just wiped him out four days after see we're talking about the power of God coming upon you and he always comes for good he always comes to glorify Jesus but but the manifestations are just for the most part our reaction to power going through us power that is debilitating many times and I want to talk to you tonight about wanting more of the Holy Spirit how many want more you know what if it what if it blows your fuses and trips your circuits and what if your mother doesn't understand or your friends but see we need something that's not just going to inch us on forward a little bit we need something that's gonna blast us and dip pull on revive that is gonna be nation taking that's what we need and so in the context of the kingdom of God we have the wonderful promise of being filled with the Holy Spirit and so would it be hard to get if we go to Matthew chapter three we see John the Baptist introducing concept of the kingdom of God and he's saying repent for the kingdom of God is at hand and so what you want to do is you've been going your own way stop turning around and go toward God because God's kingdom is at hand God's kingdom is within your reach and I think that's important it's within your reach meaning you can have it but you there's a reach of faith there that you've got to reach for it and he points out for the wrong in that same chapter that he's the one who baptizes with water but what are coming after him it's not worthy to undo his sandals he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire and there's a holiness purge that goes with it as you read the next verb and CI I want us together to take another look at the baptism in the Holy Spirit because you see we've made some of us have tended to say well like I was baptized in the Holy Spirit back in the day I spoke in other tongues and it was really great and yes I'm sure it empowered me but off we go now unto a more of a discipline Christian life full of the the outward focus and and lots and lots of striving and hard work maybe so as we come back and consider this word baptized you need to know the word means immerse how many knew that but we kind of have that understanding in terms of water baptism maybe and which is the reason that translators left it in Greek because they didn't want to confuse the a lot of the Church of doctrines about what happens when you baptize and on and on and on so they just left it as an untranslated Greek word baptizo baptize of mind but the word means to immerse right and so he's saying I immerse you water but one coming after me he's going to immerse you in the Holy Spirit and in fire and to immerse is different than dit the Greek word for dead is bapto that's kind of in and out but baptizo means put you in and keep you in for a little while we used to have a whole story of oats and some ancient recipe for making pickles that in worst how many have heard that story if you had well it was it was a Greek recipe for making pickles and what you do is you how many ever ever made them before so you take the cucumber's of rock cucumbers and you blanch them they call it you put them in boiling water to sterilize them I think and then so that's the Dead Yet dip a minute out of that hot water but then you immerse them in the pickling solution and that's where they use the word bapto to baptise oh and so now you're immersed in that pickling solution for whatever the recipe call for like two weeks or a month or whatever and a transformation happened to that little cucumber it's no longer of raw vegetable now it tastes like the pickling solution when you get properly pickled in the holy spirit you're not going to have the raw taste so much anymore you're gonna taste like him and he wants to immerse you in his presence now there's a whole lot I could say about the kingdom really that the kingdom of God has always existed there never was a time when God didn't exist but he's invading the fallen planet and and coming down and wanting to take it over and so that the kingdom was enhanced strongly by John the Baptist and and much more so by Jesus himself and so he would say that kingdom is here the kingdom is at hand the kingdoms within reach and we would say yes it's here but not yet in all its fullness so that day is yet to come but it is here in a strong measure and it's out there for you and I and so we say yeah the kingdom is coming in all its fullness the kingdom return one day it's gonna be amazing but meanwhile we have access to the kingdom now tell somebody near you the kingdoms within your reach the rule and reign of god or the Dominion of God is within your reach and so we see Jesus in John chapter 4 preaching the same kind of message after he goes through his testing in the wilderness he comes back out and and he begins to preach that the in verse 17 repent turn around for the kingdom of heaven is at hand so there begins a journey with his promise that he's going to immerse us in the Holy Spirit and I want to break this down into two parts there's the in breaking of the kingdom where the Holy Spirit sort of comes from out there and finds you and and you can you get filled and and gifts flow in and bad stuff comes out and good stuff goes in and it's revolutionising for you at the king to broke in on your life but then there's another part where the kingdom is within you and so now there's a fountain bubbling up on the inside of you and so it's it's it's easier access now because you're carrying it around with you and so let's look at some of this the the importation that happened in matthew 10 that this is a model for all of us now i think it's important to note that jesus when he came to earth as a man he emptied himself it's as though he set his divinity to one side now hear me carefully on this he's always forever the god the son okay but he chose to put on humanity and if you read it in Philippians chapter 2 though he were God he didn't think his divinity was something had to hold on tight - he was willing to go to earth as a man but a man filled with the Holy Spirit and so at the moment of conception he's filled with the Holy Spirit and he he grows and he's born of course and lives his life up to about thirty years of age but then when he's baptized by John and heaven opens he who is filled with the Holy Spirit gets another impartation now and he's different after that and mighty signs and wonders immediately start happening as he returns in the power of the Spirit but see everything Jesus did was as a man filled with the Holy Spirit so that he could be a model for you and on now that doesn't take away from his divinity ever he could have been any moment said enough for this you know call it off I'm I'm I'm taking my divinity hat back right now type of thing I mean that was that was his choice but he chose to set it aside temporarily so he could rescue a fallen planet and he could pass that same anointing on to you and I because we would use him as a model and it's amazing how how theologians through the years have sort of discounted Jesus as a model because after all he's he's God so we shouldn't be surprised that he's healing the sick but nevertheless don't think that you can do that because you're not divine well actually you and I can do this the very same way Jesus did because it's the Holy Spirit filling you and moving through you that does the supernatural work exactly like what happened with him see and so if we go over to the very end of Matthew 19 that's you 9 and at the end of those verses it says how in verse 35 Jesus went about all the cities villages teaching the synagogue preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing every sickness and every disease among the people but when he saw the multitude he was moved with compassion for them because they were weary and scattered like sheep having no Shepherd and he said to his disciples the harvest truly is clinical - the laborers are few we have a laborer problem pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest and realize in the original text there's no chapters and divisions because right into the next part of the story and when he had called his twelve disciples to him he gave them something and so his ministry had become so popular and spectacular that it's way beyond one person being able to minister to the crowd and these people are all milling around like sheep without a shepherd what do you think's wrong with them see when you read these stories put yourself with the story start to say like what would have been like to be there and he realized people had carried their poor sick mother for you know miles maybe and they can just get to him and touch the hem of His garment she'll be well and all this kind of stuff and they got there and there's thousands ahead of them and it's already getting dark and what are we gonna do and they're all milling around like we can't get to him and he sees that he knows it's time to multiply so he calls the twelve and he gave them something and in Matthew's Gospel he gives them EXO SIA he gives them authority I realized that King James has power but to be more specific the word is X's you if you read the same passage in Luke chapter 9 you'll find he gave them two things power and authority and then he sent them out he's multiplying his ministry and sending them out notice their instructions only go the house of Israel initially verse 7 as you go preach make an announcement tell them what the kingdom of heaven is at hand hey the kingdom is at hand that means you can have it it's available for you anybody interested by the way there's no sickness in heaven there's no poverty in heaven there's no shame or pain or fear or abandonment or all that there's bliss there's joy there's bountifulness I mean it's healing that's your announcement tell them that and then demonstrate and listen look at it heal the sick verse 8 cleanse the lepers raise the dead cast out demons freely receive really good you know when when I really began to understand that verse I was wishing he'd left raised the dead off that list see this is a beginner's list for these guys they they've never done this before they had seen him do it but after all he's pretty special isn't he the Messiah The Anointed One but Noah Bray's the deads on the list and off they go and then he doesn't stop there we get over into Luke 9 and 10 and we see that he sends 70 others out even less trained than the twelve by the way and same thing freely receive really good so it's a pretty simple mission and I think it's for us to do today so here's here's the deal you proclaim the kingdom is within reach and then you demonstrate the kingdom by healing the sick cleanse the lepers raising the dead and casting out demons isn't that simple everybody understand what to do any questions so see here's the point that impartation that he gave them is vitally important because we all know you just you just can't do this stuff in any kind of a sort of a gung-ho bravado or something there has to be power that backs this up there has to be spiritual authority that backs this up impartation did Kingdom broke in on those guys once again after the resurrection in John chapter 20 verse 22 he he breathed on them and what did that look like he said received the Holy Spirit holy breath you ever seen your dad blowing people he took so much heat for it he kind of backed off a little he's doing it again great because there's something on that see the word for for spirit Numa means breath or wind or spirit and so it's anointed breath you you blow that on people it's just every bit as effective it's laying on of hands sometimes and you know I encourage you don't settle on a method but just be open to at least the things that are in the scriptures and change it Jesus and they received something it was it was amazing how many would like resurrected Jesus to blow on you and say receive the Holy Spirit boy I sure would well let's go over to Acts chapter 1 and 2 and what we see is he's about to leave you know you put yourself in this story and it's amazing how you know he no sooner got raised from the dead and then he announces I'm going away I could just imagine that role you know they left everything to follow him and they're kind of like hey we're in on the ground floor and his kingdom is coming for sure this is amazing and then he starts saying they're the son of man is going to be crucified and his life is gonna be taken from him and then he says but no one takes my life from me I had to lay it down to myself and if I lay it down I'll take it up again so I'm gonna be raised up but they're like no way this can't happen but sure enough before the rise he's taken and crucified six hours on the cross he he died and he's buried and they're devastated and they can't hardly believe it when the word goes up he's risen as he said and then he starts appearing into the room and here and there and appearing and they're just they're just settling you know it's true the Lord's back then he starts telling them guys I'm gonna be going away why are you so sad you should be happy for me I told you I'm going to the Father and they're like yeah yeah I guess but it's in John 15 he's tells them listen it's expedient for you that I go because if I don't go away the Holy Spirit the comforter will not come to you in the way that I want them to you've kind of been working as an extension of my anointing up to this point but I want you to have full-on impartation filling immersion of the Holy Spirit so I need to go away now I don't get it all but you know in terms of the Trinity I just figured okay well they don't want more than one away at any given time so Jesus back to heaven and the Holy Spirit comes to earth okay and so he asked final words for them acts 1 verse 4 being assembled together with them he commanded them I mean you're good with that have we got any ex-military people here in the room hands up god bless you all one or two or three we have such a high value on our individualism most of us that we don't really like to be command do not leave the city wait for the promise of the Father can you take those kind of instructions see waiting on the Lord is a vital part of this it determines how hungry you really are and how obedient perhaps you really are we that's the promise wait for the promise of the father which you've heard of me forsake you shall receive power Dunamis when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you'll be witnesses to me in Jerusalem Judea Samaria and the ends of the earth now many things happen when the Holy Spirit comes on you you know there's many symbols for him let's see water river rain oil wind fire clothing many and they all have significance we're trying to describe what's going on but the water is speaking I think of of cleansing the wind is speaking of movement and propulsion and the oil of speaking of healing and of course anointing which is what the word means and fire of course is contagious and the Holy Spirit is extremely contagious you know Dennis came to Toronto he got blasted by the Holy Spirit I'm on the floor and then went over to Buffalo and spread the fire all over Tomi reached chirps didn't you contagious tell somebody next to you just be careful this stuff is contagious so wait for the promise and then in acts two it happened this is a mighty day Nazi talk about manifestations suddenly there's a sound from heaven as a rushing mighty wind like a hurricane it filled the whole house where they were sitting and they were appeared to them divided tongues as of fire and sat on each of them so just imagine this now they're all in the room suddenly a hurricane sounded blowing around they're wondering what's going on and fire sitting on everybody's head and they all erupt in languages they'd never learned and they unlock the doors they were hiding up there afraid and the prayer meeting they pour out into the streets start preaching the gospel and all these unlearned languages and the whole town comes together in a crowded feast time for Jerusalem to statistic what is going on and Peter says no no these are not drunk as you suppose it's only 9 o'clock in the morning this is that which was brought aside by the Prophet Joel that in the last days God was going to pour out his spirit on all flesh and it was gonna it's gonna change the world all flesh are going to be touched by this thing and so if you read the prophecy and Joel then read Peters spin on it you're like how did he get that but anyway it's it's amazing how that mighty outpouring of the Spirit came on those 120 and those people changed the world don't think about this Jesus had said to them they're like okay well when if you witness the kingdom whence it they're coming and he said of the gospel this gospel of the kingdom must be preached to all the nations all the nations in the world and then the end will come you know I if I'd have been there I'd of said Lord can I can I just have a minute with your life all the nations to me we're this tiny little group in Israel and Israel doesn't like us actually how are we gonna go from here to the whole world getting in on this thing how's that gonna happen and he would have said oh that's that's easy by the Holy Spirit filling each and every one of us that's it and see there in Antioch they began to call them Christians if I said to you are you a Christian how many would say yeah do you ever think about what it means what does it mean to follow Christ no it doesn't mean that I mean we do follow him crazy little Christ but is Christ me Anointed One it's the same as the Hebrew word Messiah or Messiah so he is the Messiah you're a little massage how about I don't go around saying that there's people who miss out sandy you're gonna take it back into the English route he is the Anointed One I am a little Anointed One but it's that anointing that's going to allow me to be persuasive when I share the good news of Jesus Christ and so here we have where the Holy Spirit comes and breaks in on a crowd of people and I love it when he does that I think he's gonna start it tonight after we used to be in meetings no kidding where I'm trying to teach them something profound like I don't know haleh's real or whatever and he would he would hijack the meeting and everybody started sliding out of their seats and laughing and carrying on and you know we have a guy in our church fixes any chairs that get broken and you know it's not so bad anymore but I asked him on our 20th anniversary Cal how many chairs she reckon you fixed over the years he said I don't know five six hundred of them so if you want revival do not buy cheap chairs don't get the particle board base you know really good why would platform in there because see what happened is it would go off in the room like like pop four people just fly up in the air and come back down sometimes wasn't so high but sometimes they didn't be like five feet up and down and it was like oh I told them earlier he spoke back to me son John you don't even understand women why would you think he would understand me but see he loves to hijack the meeting with the understanding this this is not my meeting this is what you mean you guys would be the first to say this is his meeting we keep telling him that you're the senior leader we're just let him do what he wants to do and and so just while we're there don't let manifestations offend you they're really just 90% of the time there are people's reaction to power unimaginable power going through their bodies see if you had two electric leads to hold I said hold these tight while I plug this in the wall how many think you might jump or shout or laugh scream that's merely electricity we're talking about the power of God you being immersed in this stuff and so 90% of it is people reacting to that power and I'll tell you what it's it's amazing I've seen people run backwards through the whole room you know jumping backwards over bodies that are strewn all over and you know we have our favorite ones one we were in Australia the-- the district aog pastor was there a og district leader and his wife she was all dressed to the nines you know he'd been to Sunderland England he knew a bit about what it was like but but I think it was her first time she was sitting in the front row and and we had a whole bunch of precious people from the islands nearby like Thursday Island and Tuesday Island all of that and they were the most spiritually sensitive people I think I've ever run I mean you just look at them and they go flying so her eyes got wider and wider and wider and I can just read her face what kind of a madhouse have I gotten myself in and she knew it was God but see it doesn't compute why would God do this why would not do that what would the other it can't be the devil because they're testifying how it brought them closer to Jesus and all this stuff or healed or whatever but she's just just getting I don't know blown away by it and all of a sudden she flew up in the air did a complete somersault and landed in an empty seat three rows back I was a big high platform I I looked over at Carol and I'm like Hubert's he does he does amazing stuff and he said why would God do that got me there but he just loves doing things out of the ordinary I mean some people have been suspended like 12 inches off the floor we had we have friends that are leaders of ours in Norway and this lady one time we prayed for her and she was out for the entire meeting in fact there was a very full room so she was in my way I prayed for her but she was out and she was great in the way but you know we kind of it it helps the the ambience of the meeting and everything if there's a few but it was time to go it's now like I don't know midnight or later her husband says guys I need some help I cannot move her so it took four sturdy guys struggling to lift this lady as stiff as a board she's not a heavy lady I would guess 110 120 pounds baby and and they struggled to carry her and loaded her into the back so they drive to the hotel and then they they bring her into her room so imagine you're going by the desk [Applause] so I was with them again a year or so ago when I asked her this question I said Unni has anything like that ever happened to you before she said yes similar first time it was in Toronto I was out under the Powell and I realized that I couldn't move I was just couldn't move but after a while I could sit up so I would sit up but my legs were like glad I could not move my legs how many know the word in Hebrew for glory is a boat and it means heaviness the way so the way of God comes on you and I'm telling you it's it's heavy and I love that I love I feel him on my hands right now that way Tina so you can feel him again you don't see him but you can feel it he's like electricity sometimes like heat sometimes like like like wait many times so this weight is on her and she kept trying to move but she couldn't so she'd lie back down but she'd sit up and then lie down so finally she sat up and then it kicked in she's like up down she said John I did sit-ups for one and a half what were you like in the morning like absolutely no pain no problem whatsoever how many see these are this is the packaging that goes sometimes with the in filling the life-transforming in filling as the Holy Spirit breaks in upon you and it's just fantastic and it happened to the Apostles in acts 2 it happened to get an X for the place was shaken it happened in Cornelius's house again in acts 10 and notice while Peter is preaching the Holy Spirit fell on them and in his words he fell on them as he fell on us at the beginning so a number of years ago um by they were kind of getting used to things a little bit but now the Lord says it's time for the Gentiles to get in on this and so Cornelius the angel comes go get Peter Peter comes back you know I'm not supposed to be here because Jews and Gentiles whatever but God has told me and so boom in the middle of his talk the Holy Spirit hijack the meeting crashed in on them just like he did in Acts chapter 2 isn't that amazing so see this is the in breaking now you can tune into that wherever you are but can we be childlike a little bit with this you know you when you read what is it Luke 10 where where he's saying I thank you Father Lord of Heaven and Earth that you have hidden these things from the wise guys and revealed them onto little children for that was your good pleasure Luke 10 and verse 21 actually so you think about this Jesus the greatest evangelist ever is happy that his message is being hidden and with help from a group of people I mean that doesn't make sense to me I mean I I love being an evangelist a big part of what I do seem to lost one Christ and if I figured I'm missing though that group I would sort of try to tweak things to hit them as well wouldn't you but he's like thank you Father that you've hidden it from the wise and learned but you had revealed that the little children because that was your pleasure and so there's a there's a there's a message in their work where we need to be less complicated and more childlike because what it what it does is it it causes unbelief to arise in your harm so going back to the whole thing table what are you doing what are you doing see we think that we should understand everything he's doing and if I don't understand it then I don't want it wrong you'll miss all the fun of you and we had to learn that how much fun he was be just playing with people sometimes why else would they be popping up by popcorn ogres in Raleigh Church a couple of weeks ago this the presents got thicker and thicker and did one of the team he's fighting it at first beat jumped up out of his seat and went running around the whole room full speed fast as he could under the anointing and then sixty-five-year-old one of the top businessman in the church the guide least likely to show any emotion jump to his feet went running around the room after I was fastest very careful back there and so we realized that hey he's fun tubular Margaret Paloma has been a big help to me from the University of Akron Ohio just close by and she sent me a thing of the theology of play that was a helpful little theologian and Belgium or something figured it all out you know he just loves to what does the fruit of joy look like when it gets going in truth we're okay with with love we're good with love wait have any more clubs open and peace okay gentleness yeah but what about joy what does that look like tell your face more joy let it bubble up so so this is the kingdom breaking in on you and that's what happened to us January 20 1994 when Randy said if you want to come up I'll pray for you all really low-key all of a sudden people make their move I think I'll go up and get prayer and then the minute they did he fell on us and the whole room exploded into an uproar our women's pastor Mary Audrey reycraft is teaching a class in an adjoining room and she hears all this commotion she keeps teaching but it doesn't stop so after Welton what on earth are they doing in there and so she's I got to go find out so she opened the side door her first thought is where is everybody because you're expecting a roomful of people on their feet hands in the air and they're cheering and they're yelling and carrying on but she's like where is everybody she realized they're under the chairs and then and she's right down on her face for 40 minutes can't move and then when she finally got up the second miracle happened she could not [Applause] this is very articulate couldn't talk it's amazing all right let's go to John for now we have the kingdom that's within you that's bubbling up within you so Jesus in the beginning of this chapter he left Judea verse 3 and departed again to Galilee but this time he needed he says to go through Samaria so instead of taking the long way over and up the Jordan Valley and into Galilee he takes a shorter way through Samaria which is the Samaritan Territory and he needed to do that for reasons that he doesn't really say share so he came to sick or near the plot of ground Jacob gave to his son Joseph Jacob's Well was there and therefore Jesus being wearied from his journey sat by the well it was about the sixth hour 12:00 noon a woman from Samaria came to draw water and Jesus said to her give me a drink and then it's got this little verse next first disciples had gone away into the city to buy food I thought that's odd that all of the disciples would go the other guys just chill stay with me and we can talk through whatever or at least one of this state this is Samaritan town I don't care let's just go there he is alone and this woman comes to draw water and he asks her for a drink and so she's like this is odd it's you passing through here is odd a Jew speaking to a woman is odd a Jew asking her for a drink that is also odd the woman says how is it you being a Jew ask a drink from me a Samaritan woman because the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans you know the Samaritan kind of like I don't know part of it but not quite right isn't that's fair to say and but but he doesn't answer answer her question directly he says this lady if you knew two things number one if you knew the gift of God and number two if you knew who it is is speaking to you you would ask him for a drink and he'd give you a drink all right he'd give you living water and so she's like what so you got nothing to draw with the Wells D where are you gonna get that living water are you greater than our Father Jacob but gave us the well direct himself and his sons and his livestock he says to her whoever drinks this water will thirst again but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst but the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life and she says okay give me this water that I may not thirst nor come here to draw so she's trying to figure a mouth like who is this what is this guy who's talking to me he's a Jew like is he hitting on me is he like nuts he won't and but his question stands if you if you knew two things two things that I daresay everyone in this room know you know when you talk about the gift of God you can break that down first of all it's Jesus as Savior gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord but I think what he's referencing here is the baptism of the Holy Spirit very thing promised in Acts chapter 1 wait for the promise of the father which you've heard from if you knew about that promise and if you also knew the one who was speaking to you right now you would ask him for living water and he would give it to you and you would never thirst again you know why because it would become in you like a an artesian well of water springing up over and over into eternal life this is amazing see I read that first many many years and I never really kind of understood it as it you drink the water I give you a never thirst again but I'd say but Lord I'm thirsty I want more I want more quantity I want I want more quality I mean I just want more of you more of you and I didn't really get the message see when you carry and well around with you an everlasting supply of living water there is no need for you to ever go thirsty again all you have to do is plug in to that well within you and take a good big drink and quench your thirst you see the Holy Spirit is kind of like water as well yesterday's drink will do for today you need today's drink you need this moments drink and so it is with the Holy Spirit you know great you got filled yesterday hallelujah wonderful but now you need another drink today but you know what you carry a reservoir around with you it's amazing you know we started out in a little weed church it was barely would hold 400 we had an overflow which should hold another 300 this is crammed in like sardines we had to find a place and we we finally found where we are now miracle story but it was on that well drive-in in Toronto again but on the other side of the airport and it took me about two years or so for it to register that wait a minute our church is now located on at well Drive like well duh you're at the well and so it became a well you mean thousands millions came and drank deeply living water but see this is supposed to be within you so now it's not so much the in breaking Kingdom as it is you learning to draw on the kingdom that's within you already now you need both you need the importation and you need to learn how to drink and how to draw on that which is within you see because the kingdom is at hand but it's also within you right one last verse John 7 verse 27 I think it is 30 37 on the last day the great day of the feast Jesus stood and cried out the hearers of the temples the last day the Feast of Tabernacles the big high day of that feast and he stands up and shouts out if anyone thirsts let him come to me and drink he who believes in me he she as the scripture has said out of his heart I love the old King James out of his belly will flow rivers of living water but this he spoke concerning the spirit to those believing in him wouldn't receive for the holy spirit was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified there's the promise this be it if you knew the gift of God and you know who who is this promising this to you you would ask him from your heart sincerely you would say something like Oh Lord Jesus may I please have this living water that I would never thirst again and again if you can be childlike with it it's more likely than kick it but we stand and all right I just have a feeling that the kingdom is gonna kind of go both ways it's gonna bubble up and crash in as well which would be wonderful but see there is there is a an artesian well within you in your belly in your inner being and you can drink of him anytime you've a mind to you just kind of tune in to the Holy Spirit you take out your spiritual straw you know you put one end in your mouth put the other end plug it into your belly button and then you can have a good big dream because see he lives in there this are you ready let's do it together children [Applause] out of my inner being living water Chloe let's do it again ready now don't just leave it in the realm of imagination I want you to realize we're talking about real stuff you just don't see it but you can feel it and you can certainly feel the effects of it we're talking about you drinking from that eternal supply of living water that you can access from within you right how many want to do one more now we need a little secret that if you want a pope if you want to be used to pour out and minister to other people first you got to get filled up because you can't give away what you've never first received so so you just get really really good and full and so on and here we go ready [Laughter] now you can you can do that a few times and now you can begin to give it away other people cuz it's fiery it's very very contagious this person of God the Holy Spirit is his wonderfully contagious and he loves to to jump from one to the next to the next just imagine how he does that so so lay hands on somebody near you and if they're comfortable with that if they're not well okay you've know him but if they are just say let the river flow [Applause] she comes out was the promise from John seven out of your innermost being rivers plural of living water will flow this he spoke of the spirit all right now just keep going with that just for like five minutes they're like this press in take a good big drain draw event well within you and then pour it out give it away and give it away and just let that river flow come on Holy Spirit this is your meeting this is what you love to do just let it come on then here in Jesus name your fiery presence on the mall hello Holy Spirit hello Holy Spirit we love you Holy Spirit we love what you do Holy Spirit I give you a permission to just come and fill me with all the fullness of God keep drinking friends can't drinking now if this is new to you and we've already kind of gone beyond your comfort zone just bear with me a little bit I used to tell people look don't just go home and say that's it for that place stay with us about three days it takes about three days to try to work it out that hey this is God clothes it goes like this this can't be bought and then you use your see your friend get touched and you hear their story maybe it is God and then you go this is God and then it starts to get all over you and you're kind of drunk now this is God it's it's wonderful to be immersed in the presence of the Holy Spirit now there's much more I could say but the Holy Spirit is your down payment on heaven it's like that deposit how do you know you're gonna like heaven when you get there well it's going to be filled with love joy peace patience gentleness meekness buh buh buh buh all nine get fruits of the spirit oh yes and self-control huh I'm glad we mentioned that one listen the fruit of self-control is a strengthening so that you can control yourself and it's in the context of dealing with sin it was never intended for you to control the Holy Spirit and tell him what he should and shouldn't do in your life never otherwise Paul never would have been blinded exactor I never would have been struck down man yeah we think about what Jesus did he walked on water and it wasn't frozen that is pretty crazy isn't it I love that verse in John 14 verse 12 that's one that's up on my fridge or somewhere it says this truly truly I say to you probably know what Jesus says that you need to listen up truly truly the one who believes in me he or she who believes in Me the works that I do he will do also how many believe in Jesus give him away I believe with all my heart Lord okay this means you then this means you it works that I do you will do also and even greater works than these you will do because now see we can't just endlessly talk about this stuff you have to have interaction with it you have to encounter him you have to go away saying things like I didn't think I was going to live through that [Applause] God got me one time in Israel with waves of love and joy really it was it was fun at first potato I didn't think I was going to live through it and I told him that Lord one more wave and I'm not gonna live through it but I did live through it and one more wave came and again and again and again see he doesn't come to kill you per se normally to kill you and there's a transformation that happens in the inner person when the Holy Spirit comes mightily upon you what we do in our churches move everybody to like prayer lines so we can get at you and lay hands on and impart that fiery presence but all of you are called now here's here's one thing that hinders people from receiving we don't think we're holy enough or ready you know I've seen it stop people from getting saved okay so I wish you to I wish it had caught me a couple of years ago but now I've been too bad I know for sure God's not the slightest bit interested to me I'd burned up all my chances I'm like no you're just the very one he's looking for right now same with you it's not a performance-based thing it is the gift of God it's not of works what you get from him is again but you are accountable for what you do with it but it's a good all right can you receive a gift from a loving father I mean we don't deserve this stuff you imagine he's giving you the Holy Spirit he wants to share himself with you on an intimate level he wants to come and live inside of you how can this possibly be but it's too good to be true but it's true so I want you to start to breathe him in [Music] [Applause] [Music] why don't you all join hands stop not across the aisle no within the road just join hands and just sort of hook up Connect down Holy Spirit I ask you to begin to flow back and forth all over this auditorium right now with your power with your amazing love just let it come fire on them fire in the name of Jesus let it come fill them up Phil Phil let your glory go through this room fire on you here keep coming Holy Spirit we want to be filled don't wink we want to be filled with all of your fullness Lord let it go Jesus my today we want your glory to move through the room the very best use of your time is for you to keep drinking and getting filled and filled and filled with the Holy Spirit please don't be afraid of this say Lord I want you some people miss it because they feared the counterfeit listen if you ask for bread he will not give you a stone we're not asking for counterfeit we're asking for God the Holy Spirit come and fill us we want to be filled Oh in Jesus name keep drinking keep drinking drinking fire on you [Music] fill them up [Music] - no he's all over you honey he doesn't just empower us you know one of the other things the Bible says is he binds up the brokenhearted he heals the bruised he sets the captives free he's come to just touch you in the deep places of your heart will you let him do that [Music] fill er up please in Jesus wonderful name Lord that another wave of heaven go through this place right here another way but heaven go through the room Jesus Jesus Jesus right it would just take forever for me to let go of each other's hands lift your hands to heaven okay the scripture says the kingdom of heaven is within your reach do you believe that okay then by faith like a little kid reach for it put your hands up into that invisible presence of the Holy Spirit I just get that oil all over them that thick heavenly oil all over your hands get that heat on you get that electricity on you just take a moment and sort of marinate in that presence and let your hands be like an extension of the hands of Jesus okay now bring your own hands down lay them on your on your chest or your head and say fire on you take the impartation [Music] [Applause] Lord we asked for a mighty Holy Ghost outpouring in Youngstown Ohio and in this whole region the takeaway from tonight's message is there is an embracing of the kingdom that is going to happen from time to time when you maybe least expected but there's also a bubbling up of the kingdom on the inside of you where you can have a drink whenever you want a drink because out of your inner being now there flows rivers not just that a little trickle or a drip rivers of living water they evoke this this is the spirit there is an inexhaustible supply of the Holy Spirit now how many of you need a healing miracle of some time wave out it could be an emotional healing it could be a physical healing it could be for pain it could be for this doubt of the other whatever it is listen there's there's very few perfect specimens some people need at least their cavity filled or their their hair thickened or their teeth straightened or you know some blemish whatever nothing is too small for him Norman so listen carefully the kingdom of heaven is within your reach and there's no pain in heaven there's no sickness in heaven in fact Jesus paid for that at the whipping the whipping wasn't incidental to what happened it was all part of the plan he took your sicknesses and carried your diseases and by His stripes you were healed lift your hands to heaven once again get that anointing all over your hands that healing anointing that I don't care if you've had it for thirty years we've got a wonderful healing couple of days ago lady thirty years of pain for falling down the stairs just all she had to do is forgive herself for not being more careful it opened the way and boom that while your hands are in the glory just say Lord I forgive myself and others for in any way they contributed to my injuries or my illness or my pain and my problem for my concussion somebody's concussion is being touched right here but giving you praise Lord Jesus somebody's migraine headaches are being touched right here just tell the Lord I forgive myself and others for any way that I blamed others and I'm here to say that your grace is sufficient for me now bring your hands down your own anointed hands as an extension of the hands of Jesus and lay them upon the problem as though it was Jesus himself doing it and say this with me out loud you ready this healing belongs to me because of what Jesus has done at the whipping and at the cross I receive my healing now by the holy spirit as a free gift of his love [Music] we command pain and sickness to come off God's people right now I tell tumors to shrink shrivel up die though Lord that kidney problem goes in Jesus name because those those damaged knees I rebuke that in the name of the Lord took Sublette fire go through those knees right here in Jesus name and whatever else is wrong with your blood condition healed allergies healed over here thank you Lord all over this room you're moving and doing wonderful wonderful things now I want you to check yourself do what you could not do if you had limited movement or if it hurt to do this or that I want you to check yourself and do what you could not do been twist turn push pull whew whatever and if you feel like wow where something is really shifted here we're getting somewhere I want you to way better just wave excitedly all over the room just wave your hands if you're waving run down to the front and let's just hear some testimonies of what's happening what just happened honey so I've had pain across my low back and I wasn't able to extend backwards without any pain or move certain ways and now I can go all the way back without any pain for you that would be you wouldn't it I was playing softball this Wednesday outfield was trying to throw the ball in and just this pain from old baseball high school injury it was just a sharp pain and every time I rotated it it felt like cartilage was missing and I just keep rotating it and there's no pain whatsoever it's just too bizarre isn't it just like what fire on him Holy Spirit let it come what happened with you I've had me like knee pain in my right knee I fell for the last year and a half I've had a lot of pain and when you told us to lay hands on ourselves I laid my hand on my knee and I heard it pop and the pain is gone Wow what happened with you men I've had a migraine since yesterday and it's been lingering all day it is gone I'll let it go and never return by the anointing in the name of Jesus will breed that in right there what happened with you man I found out in the set my basement steps a couple weeks ago and I've been really bad pain in my back and not able to set up I actually was gonna leave because I wasn't here gonna be sitting everybody as soon as I stood and you started praying and I just foo it's gone I mean I and it's been a team y'all going wait wait wait normally we are surprised but we're not supposed to say words brother no no I had paid for it I'm always surprised that delightfully surprised let people get a healing way I've been bothering I work in a hospital on to pick up people and it's been I'm just fill er up daddy fill er up there's more is more coming look at this Wow what happened do you met my heels been hurting for like almost two years and it gets worse and worse so I had to take my shoe off and it's hard to stand and I've been praying over it and everything and so you should stand up I go okay God and stood up and I think [Music] [Applause] fire on what happened to you my dear on April 29th of last year I was in a head a head-on car accident me and my mom and my knees were locked into the dashboard and when I go back to the Falls and supposed to be going to the doctor for these needs and poked my shoulder and different things and so I made didn't I do that before Wow let's breathe that in right there stretch your head to her towards her and say fire on you what happened to you right here let me let me bring you come on over further guys and we got people on this side or is it just this side getting it it's your turn tomorrow night so you guys come on back I have lupus for about three years and I was in stage 3 kidney failure about two years ago and just when you said that to lay our hands on I just like felt I don't know for sure but I believe I believe did you feel like fire like hot let's agree with her that this is the finish of it see put your faith in the anointing in the name of Jesus the power presence of the Holy Spirit comes on us heals us and fixes us I mean at one level it's easy to understand but you can like well how like what did he change what did he do I don't know he just goes in and fixes boom and that's enough isn't it so just enjoy your he said with me thank you Jesus for healing this young woman tell Luz go in the name of Jesus this she's not yours she belong to Christ Jesus right can I turn it over to you anytime soon or shall we keep going what happened to you I've had multiple head injuries actually I was saved when I was three but and the enemies tried to kill me since then he hates you you know so how come you're still alive there must be God's good yeah God is a mighty God and nothing's too difficult for him and when you prayed for the concussions I just know that that as well as other little things that got taken care of Holy Spirit things [Music] what's happened to you man the chest breathing and knees and when you said to lay your hands I didn't know where to lay my hands and he did because I had a heel that's been hurting I can't so you have no pain so the physical symptoms that you can test are good so you're in faithful and ones you can't test why why can't we just make a decision we're gonna believe him see part of the problem in North America the Western nations is we've kind of had prayer several times and you know they're like that every time you praying it doesn't work it just gets a little bit harder to rev up and believe so just turn the page let's begin again and realize he is able to do exceeding abundantly above all you could ask or think we learned a couple of things about healing one was to persevere in it because you think that sometimes the quick prayer should be enough because it was for Jesus but in our case I think it's fair to say we're not as anointed as he was at least not yet would that be fair to say so it might take us a little longer but you stay with it we had a mighty healing I think it was Tuesday night might have been and it took about 15 minutes so I prayed for the woman she's 50% better I turned her over to Carol who worked with her for another 15 minutes and totally absolutely healed this lady was 30 years a Dane and she met me the next morning it's just you have no idea how good it feels to wake up with no pain so I often tell people listen it's the anointing that's healing you now if you wake up in two or three days and the symptoms are trying to come back sometimes the enemy will contend for your healing don't automatically start fighting the devil why do I say that well because we've learned many of us as Christians to you know to fight and resist him and all of that and we do but see in if in the due way you treat him as though he had the power to steal your healing then it's kind of like according to your faith be it unto you so I want you to put your faith in Jesus Christ who has who said is clearly of Matthew 28 verse 19 all authority in heaven and on earth and in Young's town has been given unto me so if he has at all how much is that leaving the other guy so I want you to treat him like he's defeated and you just have been tries coming back you just say no not having that jesus healed me and then by faith you step back into the same anointing that healed you tonight you can even reach up take a handful and put it on your head whatever you whatever way you can connect with it but just realize it is the anointing that breaks the yoke [Music] fire what happened to you her knees I just but like this and then my friend continued to pray because I had not saw my knees and I couldn't meal like itty-bitty pea-sized no peace eyes off you go [Music] whatever view you live I suffered from depression on my Jesus and when I was really really little I used to have epilepsy and a couple years ago I was a seizure and the doctor says put me through cat scan and they said you shouldn't be having seizures now and not before that I prayed in the hospital so you're doing really really good thank you Father thank you for let the anointing come on why don't we give Jesus a great big thing days when I wish you was still on the earth because I'd give my right arm to be in a healing meeting that Jesus led wouldn't that be amazing one of his meetings but he said I need to go away because if I don't go the Holy Spirit will not come and I want the Holy Spirit to be able to come to each and every one of you and so because he left and said the spirit we can enjoy the presence just like this but it's not for you to keep bottled out what you do is you receive it then you quickly learn how to how to give it away and so you can pray for people at work or at school or the neighbors or wherever you go just say hey if you got pain in your body yeah say this after me and they'll go yeah just say this after me this healing belongs to me does what Jesus has done because with Jesus I receive my healing now see that's important I receive now in the name of Jesus because of what he did at the whipping in the cross now check yourself very important get them to check them and as they do they look at you like how did you do that you asked him and he did that and people are just flabbergasted we want to teach every little Anointed One to go out and bring the kingdom to a desperately broken amen hey can we stand and get a Jesus praise so that he knows where thank pastor John come on let's go father I thank you that these encounters continue all night long that it will increase your glory and presence will increase tonight should speak to us Lord and dreams and visions that are being counters in the night the way home I thank you in advance for testimonies tomorrow what you're gonna do tonight what you've already done in Jesus name Amen get here early 9 o'clock Lou Engel early in the morning see
