him i want you go to this billy graham crusade it's going to be in east texas he said once you go to that crusade you and your wife when you get there you're gonna i've got you seats on the very front row directly in front of the pulpit okay so he told sister barnes we're going over to this billy graham crusade we're going to be sitting right in front of billy so they get over there and the colosseum the stadium is slam full there's nowhere left to see sit except in the very furthest reach of that stadium so they trudged all the way up there got there sat down she leaned over and looked at him and she said i thought you said god told you we'd have seats on the front row he said loose hill it hadn't started yet just wait on him well they watched and the usher came from the very ground floor of that joint all the way up the stairs he came talking to people asking if they were okay they get right to he gets right to where their city he stops and he looks at brother barnes he said sir would you by any chance be interested in some better seats he said matter of fact i would he said if you all get your belongings and follow me i've got something you might like so down the stairs they went all the way down to the bottom and into the vip section they went on the ground and the front two seats in the most prestigious vip section at the billy graham crusade right 20 feet in front of the pulpit were empty and he said something's happened that people these seats are reserved for called just a few minutes ago and they can't be here and they don't want these seats empty and i was given instructions to find somebody that would want to sit in these seats so if these are okay with you we'd like you to have them brother barnes in his fashion i'd be fine they sat down on the way home he said lord what was that all about and the lord told me he said tom i needed you to be reminded that no matter where you are what you're going through or how big the crowd around you is and how insignificant or invisible you may feel i know exactly where you are and what i told you i will do i will now lord told me to tell you that story these two are going to lay hands on you and great

spring up [Music] jesus name well to the rest of you that have been blessed feel blessed well you can go take a seat then if you don't feel blessed but you want to we'll pray for you again it has already been said about 2020 and all of its uniqueness and um i'm going to be real upfront with you i have not enjoyed it from some perspectives and i have not um i i despise i only know where it's at and truck i guess those little masks oh i just test them and um but as i've told you i have found they do have some benefits and if you're eating a mint behind the mask it can benefit you not to have to smell certain odors that come from people and uh you don't have to worry about i always appreciate so much when i was a kid we used to ask people that you know those spitters when they talk we'd say do you pass out towels with these showers but it just seems like some people just can't help themselves they are just they are just drowning in saliva and they just spit all over you and you you just i just i've gotten to the point i don't care if you like me or not i just start wiping the junk off right in front of you if you brave enough to spit on me i don't have a problem letting you know i don't like it so i've appreciated some of the things about the old maskware and i i really do and i've i've i've learned now that i can adapt certain terminologies that we've been blessed with like social distancing it's now okay to let people know you don't like them being close to you people don't get offended anymore because they think you're being health conscious and so you know and and and in our culture has made it available to us that we now can let people know you you make me nervous you make me uncomfortable this is a safe place for me you need to back up so i've i've adapted some of that to my my world and i appreciate some of those things but on the whole i'd really wish it just go back to the way it used to be however it's not and what you knew before the great corona came on us is no more and will never be again the vaccination you know these people running out there gonna jump up and get stuck with a needle and just be blessed and whatever well i just read a headline talking about the great state of california has now released the report that they have had their first case of the ukrainian believe that or not the ukrainian strain the great corona so i immediately thought to myself well what in the wide world good is the great chinese vaccination going to anybody if you come in contact with some of them ukrainians you're going to be in trouble again and sister herod here has a extensive career in the medical field as a nurse and one year she was talking about that the health world decided that the strand of the flu that was going to be the most contagious and rampant was a strain and lo and behold all of the great participants in socialized health ran down and got stabbed and it wasn't the a strain it was the b strain and so they got stuck and sick and uh my doctor asked me one time he said have you had the flu virus shot i said that's a negative ghost rider he said we need to get one about late september early october and another one in january i said well all i can tell you is if they don't work no better than that what in the wide world do i want one part and so 2020 has brought us just a plethora of new things and even more questions and it's taught us not to trust anything or anybody not to believe in very much at all and one report says one thing another report says something else and lo and behold now the great cdc has decided to be upfront and honest about the fact that now they say if you are asymptomatic am i saying that correctly you are not contagious with the great corona well how about that isn't that neat that that information would have been helpful early on and i didn't run down and i had to have a little operation on my elbow and i ran down another made me go take one of them little tests and the little nurse which is ridiculous because you drive up to that tent out in the parking lot and they come out in these hazmat suits that gives you just a world of confidence and they come out and which is funny to me because i didn't see them changing none of that stuff between trucks and cars and she said sir could you take a hold of your steering wheel at the 10 and 2 or nine and three position and put it in park i said what i need to hold the steering wheel far if we in park she said well it's for my sake i don't want to be hit well i couldn't understand that until she run about 10 inches of wood right up into my brain and went to she said now i'm gonna i'm gonna and they lie to you i'm gonna insert this they're not inserting nothing they are violating your cranium with that would i'm telling you that she said i'm going to insert this into your left nostril first and i'm going to do this with it for seven seconds like it better not be no one mississippi two missing you better be one two three four five six seven and then i i was blinded i don't i don't know how much hygiene was involved in all this swabbing and carrying on because i went blind immediately in my left eye and and your head goes to jerking backward like this you can't stop it and you can't take the hands off the steering wheel and then i don't know do they do they switch the swabs and get a clean one for the other side or they just run that nasty one with boogers on it right up in the other side you can't see because you're blind and then they're so conscientious of our health they're doing this in your car and then they want you to drive that one-ton automobile forward into traffic well yes sir this car's behind you've lost your ever-loving mind no i can't even see right now my dashboard you want me to drive off now you're gonna have to wait a minute then people are gonna hold on i got to get cleared up here before i go anywhere so 2020 has done a number on all of us and now it's television this and television that can't even go in the bank and they got the front doors barricaded like i'm trying to rob the joint and 12 months ago if you put a mask on and went in the bank the police would have been waiting on you nowadays if you don't put a mask on and you go in the bank the police are going to come get you i just want somebody to make their mind up what are we going to do but 2020 was a it was a wonderful year if we beheld it correctly and i'm i'm quite certain that god has asked this question privately publicly loudly quietly to most every one of us why kick us thou against the pricks do we really believe the great corona snuck up on him now i'll just go on and say what i believe bishop hear it i believe the estimates from the world health organization the cdc and everybody else i think their estimates were based on what they already knew about that virus i think that it had the potential to be as deadly as they thought it would be but the lord said no there was one place in the old testament the angels were gathered up out under the trees and the prophet asked one he said who are these he said these are they which go before the throne of god on your behalf day and night and their petition to the lord was how long are you going to let the enemies of israel take advantage of them and the scripture says that god was angry because he said i only intended for you to go this far in persecuting my people to get them re-prioritized but you went too far so the scriptural evidence that god will stop things from getting out of hand and and you don't want it to go beyond what is necessary for his purpose so i think that when the call came for bishop herod to go to that communist nation and pray i think what you did was spiritually realign the impact of that virus and i personally believe that the reason it was not as deadly as it was is because or as it was supposed to be is because you were there praying pleading the blood and the lord said i'm gonna i'm gonna do enough yeah i'm gonna do enough to keep the enemy's agenda from coming to pass but i'm going to use this to promote my own agenda and so thank you for going and doing what god told you to do but i think 2020 was one of those deals that so many people spent valuable time irretrievable time griping and murmuring and complaining and not continuing to do their kingdom obligations and responsibilities now i've just sat here and fussed to you for 20 minutes about the mask wearing i don't like it none none i don't like it and uh but i told you before i told my wife if i got to put one of these on you dial me up some camo i'm not going up in there with no lace and no pink and no cartoon characters on nothing baby blew my eye get me some camo so i got multiple camo masks i don't like it and in the beginning the enemy really worked on my mind brother nichols and it was like you know the day's going to come you're going to have to start traveling again and when you do your family is going to be vulnerable because you're going to go out there and catch that virus and you're gonna bring it home and everybody in your house and it's been a challenge it's been a battle i'm not gonna lie to you and tell you i haven't had one thought about it i'm a human i'm a father man of god fine take the of god part off and i'm a man i'm a man that loves his wife loves his kids and wants to do everything i can i think god intends us to do to keep them safe but i also learned a long time ago the best thing i can do to keep my family safe is obey everything and anything the lord tells me to do if he says hide in the bushes i'm gonna hide in the bushes if he says go out onto the battlefield i'm gonna go on the battlefield if he says stay home i'm going to stay home if he says get on the plane i'm going to get on the plane because it's really not my own life i don't belong to me i belong to him so it's been a challenge and and we've we've all been touched by this disease we've all been impacted by it some have lost loved ones uh either directly from the virus or from things that it has caused with pre-existing conditions and it has been it's been a year that has brought pain and suffering loss grief all kinds of negative emotions but it's been a good year it's been i got two people it's been a good year for the people that paid attention to what god was up to there's nothing that comes in contact with the child of god that he don't allow and if he allows it he allows it for our good and for those among us that have been taken thank god he took them while they were yet saved one of my very very dearest friends passed this morning about 10 30 11 o'clock and i have cried all the way up here off and on broke my heart probably gonna cry again before it's all over with but i give thanks to god that he took him while he was yet saved i'd rather him be in heaven with the father knowing it's all okay then down here with us out of the will of god one thing i know about him he's sovereign [Applause] another thing i know about him he is capable and able to do whatever he wants to do if he says go through a valley go through the valley you'll be fine if he says go around the valley go around the valley you'll be fine if he decides to take you out of trouble he'll take you out of trouble if he leaves you in there he'll go with you through that trouble he's god he's sovereign and he can do this however he wants to do it that i know about him i know that much about him i brother nichols and i were talking today and he said it and i'm going to echo what he said i i he and i agree on this among many many other things but we share the same sentiment that i don't think god's timing necessarily is dictated by our calendar but i do think that god's timing and our calendar sometime coincide and i do think that world events are orchestrated by the will of god and that seasons of god coincide with our calendar and there are times that god's timing and our timing line up so perfectly it looks like that we have brought this on and and it isn't that case at all it's it's just that it happens that we are perfectly aligned with the will of god and what i'm telling you is that while i have not enjoyed one stitch of corona and and all of its mess that it has put us through i am thankful that god's brought us through it to this point and i am rejoicing in the fact that he's not through taking us through and however much longer we've got to deal with corona i think we ought to turn it around and tell corona i'm not dealing with you anymore you're going to deal with me you're going to have to deal with me i'm going to pray against you every day you're not going to live on this planet one day longer than god wants you here you're going to dry up and disappear and bill gates in the world health organization and nobody else is going to get the credit for what god does i'm not dealing with covet anymore kova's going to deal with us next year which is just here shortly is going to be wonderful because we're still here we're still in the will of god we have not missed the rapture we have not missed the rapture we have not been left behind we're still talking in tongues we're still shouting we're still dancing we're still running the aisles we're still witnessing praying people all of that's still going on so next year has every ingredient necessary to be the most awesome year of our life even greater than 2020 was i don't want to hear nobody else talking about how bad 2020 was we went through some junk in 2020 but 2020 was a good year at my house we saw god do miracle after miracle after miracle we saw god keep us and walk with us and speak to us and lead us and teach us it was a good year at my house [Applause] i had corona and didn't even know it until i realized i couldn't taste my coffee and i couldn't smell it but i wouldn't say it out of my mouth until i knew it was in the rearview mirror and i remember sitting in my i'm telling you it was a good year 2020 was because god and i had a conversation about something we've never talked about and i told him if you want me here i am come and get me but if you don't keep me keep me keep me [Music] [Music] some of us have forgotten the words of the great paul to live is christ to die is gain what's the downside to a believer when god says you have done what i called you to do now i'm calling you to come on home what is the downside to us service you're not afraid of dying oh for god's sake grow up if that's all you got out of that last little tirade you need to get your junk going to the house pop your own little fireworks pop your own little balloons in that cube 2021 is going to just be spectacular [Music] yeah it sure is 2020 on is going to be absolutely unexplainable [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] yes it is [Music] yes yeah yes it is yes it is yes it is yes it is i said one day to my bishop i said if i could describe you in one word i said i just went ahead and told her brother if jesus tarries long enough that you go by way of the grave at your funeral i'm gonna have a few little things to say and one of them is i'm gonna say to them that if i had to describe you with one word it'd just be next i've never seen a human being who spends less time looking in the rearview mirror pondering and worrying and slobbering and salivating and snotting over yesterday than him and by the same token i have never seen god do any more for any one human being than him the kingdom is prophetic in nature because it's always moving forward 2021 is going to be an unexplainably fantastic year filled with the [Applause] miraculous and i'm going to tell you something about that little video [Applause] i believe every stitch of it [Applause] the only editing i would do on it is y'all need to go back in there and take that nonsense out about the financial undertaking of it is anything too hard for god hello somebody it's not gonna be no big financial problem i had a man walk up to me this week and tell me god paid our church off the other day they didn't know how they were going to get it done they needed to get it done and somebody called the pastor and said i'm dropping the check off for the balance on the church i'm paying the bills enough i don't even know if it was somebody what i'm trying to tell you is 2021 has all the earmarks of being the greatest ear you've ever been alive in [Music] food now run little brother run sit down a minute i uh i've been talking to the lord about next year and um i've asked him a few little questions i'm going to tell you what i've heard so far from him there are going to be two groups of people that go in the next year and they're in this room right now not just in this room but all across the world there are two categories of believers those who really believe in those who pseudo believe one time the lord sent a prophet among his people and he told the brother on the way out he said look i want you to go to these people and you're going to prophesy these exact words to them and he said they're going to reject you then you are going once again brother ladner he told him you're going to prophesy these same exact words a second time and they are going to reject you yet again and i can't remember exactly but it seems like it was six or eight times he told him to prophesy the exact same words and the prophet inquired of the lord why are we doing this and he said because the day will come i know already they're not going to receive it i already know that i know them they have shown me they've obviously had proven to him what they did and did not want and uh he said there will come a day when they'll stand before me in judgment and they're going to say to me you didn't send us anybody you didn't warn us you didn't tell us and he said i am not sending you there to save them i'm sending you there to be an indictment against them in eternity now to those who refuse to worship the worshipers around you will stand as an indictment against you in judgment and you're going to be so bewildered and mad at god when he says no no you're not going any further than this right here pal lord i was as faithful as everybody else in our church yet but i never knew you lord i had the holy ghost yes but i never knew you lord i was baptized in jesus i know that but i never knew you we think that that verse of scripture is talking about the lost it's not it's talking about the sinners us those people out there that have never known god they're not sinners they're lost the only people who can be sinners are those who have seen the light seen the truth and know what the mark is but refuse to make it that's in your bible you can study that out and find it when he says to them i never knew you he's talking to the church and he's telling them that word new means we never the translation to that into our terminology today from the original text would read you never allowed me to have an intimate relationship with you you married me but that was as far as we got you wanted my name you wanted my bank account we got preachers that are in the church because of what they can get out of it we got saints that are in the church because of what they can get out of it you got his name so you've got access to the banquet table you've got his name so you've got access to his goodness you've got his name so you've got access to him and all that he is and he makes a statement in scripture at one point that says you have forced me to serve you in your sins but i'm through with that the scripture says they were sitting around the table in what we call the last supper and jesus is talking to the disciples and he says to them somebody at this table isn't it amazing he didn't say anything about the sanhedrin he didn't say anything about anybody else in town you know we want to trash all the non-apostolic churches in town but they're not the ones who are able to betray him to everybody who could worship but won't worship you're betraying him you're cheating on him spiritual adultery sit there like a bump on a log if you want to but there's going to come a day you mark it down you'll remember what i'm telling you for the rest of eternity the day will come when the lord's going to say to some that will not move i don't care what your reason is i don't god don't care what your reason is for not wave a hand wag a finger nod do something brother shelton i just don't believe he's that harsh well then why does the scripture say it's a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry god and that he's jealous and why does he say things like thou shalt have no other gods before me well i believe in one god no you believe in two if you won't worship him you think you're a higher level god than he is why do you think the scripture says rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubbornness is idolatry do you know what stubbornness is stubbornness is when i worship my will over his when he's saying dance when he's saying shout when he's trying to draw us to an altar of prayer and we sit on our pew and refuse to move that's us saying i believe my will is superior to your will and i will bow to my will but not yours [Applause] brother shelton you always have something mean to say to us i hear you i've heard you twice say it well guess what baby you you need to steal be thankful that god's still talking to you [Applause] if god ever starts talking to you like you talk to him the regularity of it so he says it's not going to be somebody in the community that betrays me even though they all hate me somebody at this table is going to betray me at this table this last and final supper that we're going to break bread together this most intimate of intimate meals we will ever share together as mortal humans in this most intricate moment of time this most pivotal moment in the father's plan where we are sitting here breaking bread together you would have thought at that moment there would have been no dissension in that room and that there would have been complete and total unity and submission to him and yet in that most dreadful moment he says to them there's one person in this room that's going to betray me and guess who it was it wasn't the newbie it wasn't a one that had no responsibilities it was the one that was trusted with one of the greatest responsibilities of jesus and his followers it was one of the leaders one of the department heads one of the elders or as you said earlier brother jensen one of the pillars when jesus comes the church is going to vanish but before that happens somebody else is going to vanish from among us and so jesus wouldn't tell who it was he just simply let him know somebody at this table is going to betray me well john being the beloved and i've i've talked about this over the last couple of weeks in different settings and it still keeps coming back to me and and tonight i wasn't sure and here it comes and brother jensen looked at me and said soph they say to john and brother can't patella got on this a little bit this week they say to john you're his favorite so you sidle up to him over there and you find out get him to tell you who it is among us that's going to betray him and then when he tells you break his confidence and let us know well john does what his peers ask him to do and he lays over on the lord's chest and he's like lord who who is it he played every string he had he plucked it more just pluck lord who is it who is it that's going to betray you would you just tell us and the lord looks at him and says him to whom i give the soph is going to betray me he said when you see me take this biscuit and drag it through this gravy and hand it to one of these brothers at the table you'll know he's the one and before john could convey that to everybody at the table jesus turns and extends the sop now one of the most startling things about this story to me is he told john but he didn't warn judas think about it he told the one person at the table that was no betrayal risk at all but the one that was going to betray him the one you would think he would have told had we been that one we would be angry at him why didn't you why'd you tell john if i'm the one why didn't you tell us all why didn't you just let everybody know so i wouldn't have taken the sob are you with me the one to whom i give this sob and the scripture says then the one that he extended that sop to nobody made judas take it judas could have said no i'm i'm full master no judas reached out and took it and the scripture says that when he had taken the sop satan entered into him judas had had disagreement after disagreement after disagreement with jesus in his earthly ministry in the time he followed jesus there was a lot of stuff they didn't see eye on one of the more notable things is that alabaster box situation she didn't run up and then broke that little box open and throwed all that oil out there and and judas is over here just ringing his little money purse and my god what in the world we could have sold that and given it to the poor what a liar he was he wouldn't have given a dime to nobody tightwad he wasn't going to be charitable with that and the lord reasoned with it jesus at that moment in one of the most notable stories of scripture jesus at that moment could have killed the brother why not just call down fire from heaven and consume him right now while he's making light of her sacrifice and we got people that do that even now in the church believe it or not bishop nichols they will sit in the church and mock and make fun of people who bring their sacrifice of worship and praise before god and you don't know what it cost them to run the aisles tonight you don't know what it cost them to dance you don't know what it cost them to worship god and we'll sit back critically and judgmentally and say well that was a waste i don't know why and there's been times in my life i've seen people do that and i've asked god brother jackson i've asked them why don't you just kill them and get them out of everybody's misery this was not the first time or the only time that jesus and judas had differed but it was the last time and what some of us refused to believe not can't i i would not talk about no can't believe refuse to believe is that there's ever going to be a last time for me the scripture said that when judas took that bread satan entered into him now i'm going to read to you a text that i sent out bishop here got a copy of it brother jensen brother nichols i'm going to read this to you the lord spoke this to me the other night the lord has done trying to reach and recover those who have set at his table they've sat at his table and seen his mercy they've seen his glory they've seen his presence they have felt his love they have felt him and they have not responded to him and the lord spoke to me he said you are entering into a season of sop and there are those that have said in the church and perversion has not been able to take them it's been a battle for them but it hadn't been able to consume them anger has been something they've struggled with but it hasn't been able to consume them sadness and sorrow and depression has been something they've struggled with but it hasn't been able to consume them because i have kept my hand on them and i have spent decades with some of them even decades working with them trying to preserve them trying to give them chance after chance every opportunity i can to resist the enemy and turn completely and totally to me if it's wealth they'll have more than they can count and be damned because of it if it's casual drinking or excessive drinking they think they can control it then he's going to allow the spirit of deception and addiction to take them to the lowest place in the earth then into the depths of hell those who secretly entertain perversion are going to be given over to the most vile and disgusting sins of perversion that they've ever known he said to me i have called and begged and wept for them for the last time they've sat at my table in times past and partaken of my mercy my power my kindness they've known my love but soon they'll they shall know my judgment and my anger they now stand in the way of the lost that will begin to make their way to me in the time to come i will not allow them to cause any of the harvest to be lost i am just i am fair but now i am finished with those who don't want to come home now i shall give them the life of sin they've chosen to go back to and they will soon never feel my presence or power of conviction drawing them back the harvest calls to me and i will hear it i am calling to the harvest and it shall answer me the scripture says in hebrews i've already read it that it's this fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living god that group of people are in the church some are in this room right on tonight your bishop the lord told me he said you're not allowed to say any of this until they've been given a chance to break past some things because once you say it to them there's no going back on it 2021 we can kill still run the aisles we hadn't killed it 2021 don't don't jump up and run but 2021 is going to be an amazing year and this is going to be a hard thing to say it's going to be even harder to hear and and there's at least one man on this side i i know you'd like to just come up here and slap me right in the face and that's fine you're really going to feel that way in a minute i'm afraid one of the reasons next year is going to be so awesome is because this this burden and this this dread and this heaviness that we have felt as men of god especially you pastors trying to carry people and beg people and plead with them and and talk them out of backsliding and talk them out of not being faithful and my god you need to come on it's coming to an end and i'm going to tell you what's going to happen brethren you're going to be astounded at how little emotion you feel toward the ones that god has cut off because the harvest cannot be tended to while we're begging people who ought to be on board with god by now to stay in the church and be saved and be a part of it the days come the season has come and that group of people i'm not telling you some of you tonight's the last night you're gonna feel conviction i will say that but not every one of you but it's not far from here that you'll still come into this building perhaps and you'll see it and you you'll hear but you won't hear you'll see but you won't see you'll know but you'll have no idea everything that god's doing around you will be exactly that around you you won't feel it and you won't be able to hinder it anymore the bishop and whatever other man of god would be in this pulpit or any of the others hope they'll see any of it the people that you have laid in bed at night and wept over that you have called you've emailed you've checked on and that goes against the grain of shepherds shepherds don't want to have to give up on a sheep but you're not giving up on them god is cutting them off and when god cuts you off there is no coming back from it bible okay samuel don't you utter not one more word of prayer over saul i'm done with him and we've created this kumbaya god that we want to serve and it's all just lilies and birthday cakes and trumpets playing and it's just harps everywhere no no the other side of his nature is about to be seen in the kingdom the world is going to see the love of god and the church is about to see the wrath of god and it's going to be so confusing to some bishop because we're going to look up and he's going to bring the most nasty smelling rotted tooth meth head out of the gutter bring them in here and overnight seemingly elevate them to a place of an apostle or a prophet or a pastor or a teacher or an evangelist but the judases that have held the purse strings the judas's that have been in leadership the judases that have been the ministry but would not minister the judases that have been the preachers that would not preach and tell the gospel are going to be confused why god is using a meth head and not somebody who's been walking with him for decades and then they're going to get bitter and they're going to lash out and they're going to leave and i'm going to tell one more time the lord just said it never go out again against shemiya solomon is going to deal with chemi they are go i told you last year i told all of you i told every one of y'all they're going to hate you if for no other reason they're going to hate you because of the brother capital said it because of the favor of god what have we done to anybody nothing except that your father has given you his favor and when that video comes to fruition you think the stuff they say on online about you is bad now remember when lazarus i mean lazarus for god's sake lazarus been dead long enough the little brother was stinking and jesus said i'm glad the little brother died his followers are listening to what he's saying about his friend we just as followers that's his friend that's how you feel about your friends he said yeah because now i can show you something that you've never seen before i can do a work in front of you now that you never had a clue i could do and the scripture says that when he made him roll the stone back and he bid lazarus come and that's all he said lazarus come forth you know the story hear the little brother come now whether he was hopping like peter cottontail floating off the ground i have no id all i know is the lord brought him right up out of that tomb right out there in front of god and everybody he did not sting and the lord's instructions at that point was simply unwrap him by the same token that some are going to go out god is going to send his presence out and draw some others back in out of the tombs that they're in right now and when they get here he's going to tell you the believers do your job of restoration and loose them and let me use them [Applause] and i'm going to tell you that's where the rubber is going to meet the road for some of the saints of god all over the world when the one person that they think don't deserve it and should not be given the opportunity to go back into a place of ministry in the kingdom god looks at the very critic and says you want to be a part of a miracle get your head up and go over there and unwrap him unwrap her i don't care if she's been a prostitute for the last 12 years i'm about to make her a prophetess i'll take a prostitute and turn her into a prophetess you let me be god and you'll be obedient and you'll see something you have never seen before but to judas judas thinks brother jenn said he's going to get to hang around the kingdom judas thinks brother rogers it'll be another meal after this one it was not just the last supper they had with jesus it was the last supper that brother had it all the rest of them said at a different table the next time they came together david said it this way thou prepared us to table for me in the presence of mine enemies jesus told his followers i've been among you but now i'm about to be in you i have fed you with natural food i'm about to give you something spiritual you have never known before but judas wasn't there to participate in that judas wasn't there to be given a second chance no uh-uh you don't want to be a part of what i'm doing here isn't it amazing his earthly ministry judas fought him every step of the way why then would you think jesus would let a man who fought the will of god and the earth be a part of the glory of god in eternity go ahead and fight kick scream buck and snort my god here they go again talking about atc tired of answering the call well keep your two dollars got to send the german shepherd right in the back door with a sack full of money drop it on the altar got to go find some homeless hobo turn them into a millionaire overnight i don't believe that hey i told you somebody got their church paid off tuesday i can't explain that to you except i'm telling you god can do whatever he wants to when he wants to the decision-making is yours and mine am i going to be a part of it or not why did bishop just keep on about this worshiping tonight because the lord wouldn't let him stop why because he knew before he told me what he was going to tell me i'm going to give a blessing to everybody that'll do and be obedient to what i'm saying to them now there were some who worshiped themselves tired but thought it was a trick question well i ain't going gonna say nothing they'll make us run out so the day has come that normal's gone and the real normal has come this world we live in now is designed to reveal who we really are do we not realize that that's what 2020 was all about 2020 to those of us who have made it through was about god peeling away the layers of what we have put on ourselves it was god saying hey i'm going to take this time and do you a favor i'm going to be kind to you i'm going i'm going to do it this way and it's not going to be as painful as it could be other ways and i'm going to peel the grave clothes off of you that you and people and the expectations of people have wrapped you up in and buried you in but some of us couldn't see it because all we could see was what we couldn't do and what we couldn't have and where we couldn't go i've had my fair share of griping about it too but what i have tried to do during the course of this year sister jackson is not lose sight of the prize not take my eye off of the destination i don't have to like every step in the road but i'm not getting off the road i don't like brother jones the process sometimes but there's no other process and there's no other formula there's no other way there's no other door there's no other name under heaven given among men that's going to save me so if i'm going to get to the ultimate destination i got to stay true to him true to the word true to the doctrine true to the call of god on my life [Applause] the only people that ever got such a harsh judgment was that bunch of miracles and i've talked to you about them before kershi miras cursey bitterly miraz for when the lord had need of them he didn't say they went horn on a high heel that bunch he didn't say this to there were people his people had disappointed him over and over and over and he never said this to him oh he'd let him get put into captivity and made slaves out of or whatever for a generation or two or four but he kept coming back to israel over and over and over but when it came to miraz he issued an issue of judgment against them for one reason for when the lord had need of you you would not come i need you i need you now you won't side with me i'm done with you and judgment fell on mirrors god's timing was so impeccable is still so impeccable that to make sure judas did the will of god the lord helped him on his way judas want some bread yeah and at that moment satan entered into him and then the lord makes a statement that we have only believed i think are taught i have until just the last two days my belief about this has been that that statement jesus makes next was to judas only but the lord told me the other day brother herod i was not talking to just judas i was given permission now to that devil that had entered into him i was giving him instructions whatever you're going to do with this man do it quickly some of you have toyed with social drinking when god gives you that sop it won't be 30 days you'll be a raging alcoholic and you'll never know another sober mind thought in your life till you die some of you have flirted with pornography over here on my right hand side close to the back you have you toy with it and you toy with it and you toy with it the day is going to come that when jesus starts passing out the sock he's going to tell that spirit of perversion you can have him not do what you want to with him but do it quickly because i've heard the harvest and i will not wait any longer and sin when it is finished bringeth forth death well brother shelton what a way to go into the new year isn't that beautiful going to the new year pure that felt like a sympathy clap but i'll take it now i want to read a verse of scripture to you jeremiah chapter 29 for i know the thoughts that i think toward you this is that second group saith the lord thoughts of aren't you glad i started with that other group first we'll feel like a balloon

saw that picture god had a plan to give it to you [Music] i'm gonna tell you what i'm not i'm not being derogatory i'm not i'm not being derogatory i like all the technology but you know what i'd probably do if i was you i'd probably that middle screen right there every time we came in here that'd be what we had to look at i mean if not here put it on a tripod out there somewhere on that

gonna worship god together in there my ministry's gonna blossom in there god's gonna do miracles in our city right there [Music] [Applause] long before you had a vision [Applause] god had a plan for it [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] put that whole verse up there in fact do do jeremiah 10 and 11 in the message bible i like it i'm fired up about the deal lord god i can't see it though this is god's word on the subject this is god's word his word is what his word is forever where in heaven this is god's forever settled view on the matter hello somebody as soon as babylon's 70 years are

the bank on it i'm going to do it [Music] [Applause] now i'm going to tell you something there are people in this room bishop that are a key part of that in in ways they can't even imagine everybody in here is key to that that wants to be a part of that unless they take the stop then they ain't coming in but the people that buy into the vision without you having to beg them to buy into it what you don't realize is there's stuff that's got to happen and there are people that's god's god's got to use to bring this to pass we need some millionaires in the joint but you're not going to get a dime a dollar or a donut if you don't buy into with your faith what god is trying to take this church to but i promise you by the same token if you walk in here and look at that and say you know what i don't know exactly what my place is i don't know exactly what my role is i don't know exactly what my child's going to do but i do know that we're going to be a part of whatever that's going to be and god you can use me any way you want to and god will take somebody with a lot of faith in a little bit of business sense or none at all be just dumb as a box of rocks but don't have enough sense not to have faith in what god said he'll do god did not choose noah because of what he could do he chose him because of what he would do you don't have to be a millionaire to believe god's going to pay that building off but if you'll start believing god will pay that building off he might bless you and do some of it through you [Applause] i gotta go to my scene i'm gonna go to my seat leave it
