neighbors say it doesn't stir up by itself turn to the person behind you or in front of you and say hey you got to stir it up how did you get it which is in thee by the putting on of my hands for God

the name of Jesus Christ we pray and everybody said in Jesus name Amen how many of you want to see revival at your school good about 70% of you want to see revival at your school let's try it again how many of you but lift your hand what a sea revival get your hands up at your school that's what I'm talking about now I don't know of anything more effective I've preached at schools I preached at elementary schools I've preached at middle schools I've preached at high schools I've preached at college schools I've preached to nursing home schools I've preached at all kinds of places but I don't know of anything more effective you can have a preacher come in you can have all kinds of stuff happening but there's nothing more effective or powerful than a young person that goes to that school that's on fire for God nothing so I want to ask you a question if you were God's chosen vessel think of a David think of a Deborah think of you are the one God wants to use if you feared nothing nothing and if you knew God would back you up what would you do it's your school I want some chatter back at me what would you do at your school anybody want to raise a hand and tell me what you would do at your school if you knew you were the one God is choosing you had no fear and you knew God would back up whatever you do what would you do say a loud girl you're breaking the ice for everybody go ahead me too you would talk to more people and get to know them that's good what would you do if you had no fear somebody else you had no fear I mean listen the sky's the limit here folks what would you do if you had no fear and God would back you up sky's the limit start a piece seven club preacher where she believes come on somebody anything else come on somebody the Bible says believers shall cast out demons I believe in you walk into public your casting out demons and you don't even know it sometimes it's another lesson so so what about lifting your hands and saying hallelujah whenever you want to at school that's something simple right like you're about to eat your let your unfrozen pizza and you're processed hash browns and tater tots that have been in this storage for three years and they finally got to the bottom of the stack can I get an amen the pizza that's like cardboard on the bottom and some kind of weird mixture of play-doh on top with fake pepperoni and sausage and you're about to eat it and all of a sudden you came out of a Sunday night service and last night you were rolling on the floor and you haven't even said Jesus loud enough for anybody to hear on Monday at school but you're about to eat your food and you just want to go it is so quiet right now it's unbelievable why why wouldn't you do something like that how about how about saying I love you Jesus loud enough for somebody else to hear how about if you had no fear speaking in tongues in front of everybody whoever who well what would keep you from doing what about what about preaching on the playground whatever gym you do have a playground you just renamed it that's what happens when you get older we have the same stuff we just renamed it walking around the lunchroom telling everybody about your piece seven club telling everybody about Jesus inviting everybody to church everybody every body laying hands on a teacher but now we this just happened actually a few a couple months ago I've got a brother Seth boy who is the whatever he is for p7 yeah coordinator national coordinator sent me a picture of some students praying through their teacher to the Holy Ghost so you mercy folks and and and let me ask you this if God had his perfect way you young ladies that lifted your hands on the young man if God had his perfect way tell me what would happen on your campus if God had his perfect way what would happen what somebody said it what what everyone could be touched if God had his way everybody's that's a good one anything else what would happen if God had his way everyone could be saved what else could happen if God had his perfect way through you on that campus addictions and family problems chains broken on your campus anybody starting to feel something right now what would happen on your campus if God had his perfect way there would be revival and she wouldn't have to be ashamed of her faith what about some crippled kids coming out of wheelchairs at your school what about somebody being baptized at your school what about what about people receiving the Holy Ghost in your classrooms let me tell you something the sky is the limit we have God on our side you are the chosen vessels of the Lord we've got the Word of God the devil is afraid of us so all these things that we've talked about are not only possible but somebody's going to do them somebody's going to do it and it might as well be you and it might as well be meaning I believe the number one obstacle that stands in our way of all the stuff we just said somebody tell me what it is fear and every a unique experience a few months ago we were at a farm my wife loves weird vacations and so we were at a farm and we went to a farm for vacation in North Carolina and and there were goats that we got and of course we have little boys and there's goats that you get to milk and you get to drink the milk and get to collect the you know we drink you get to collect the eggs get to collect the eggs and just all kinds of stuff and we went fishing and we cleaned up horse poo and and and and this was my wife was in heaven this was vacation and the boys were loving and I'm like what are we doing people what has happened to me but but while we were there they had this dog okay they had this monstrous creature of a dog I think his name who was Maximilian you yeah you need to see max before you say oh okay max was built like a freight truck he was about this high he was part bull mastiff part french mastiff part demon mastiff okay and he was so big his chest was enormous and every time you look at max he's just like and the people of that on the farm they're like oh he's harmless anybody ever heard that story before oh he's loves everybody he's just growling because he's trying to understand you or something and and we're walking down the road and my little boy David is walking about ten yards behind me Mike is walking up with me and all of a sudden I hear Harvey and this monster dog came running off the front porch straight for David and he was like ha ha I mean his teeth were bared he wasn't stopping he was heading for my son and my wife saw the dog coming and she picked up my son to hold him and protect him and this dog still kept coming and this reaction came over me and I turned towards the dog and I'll he was about 20 yards away I lunged at him and I said no my voice didn't squeak it was more manly than that okay way more manly no there we go that was more like it no yeah and when I did I mean it was powerful it was forcing I thought the Holy Ghost actually when that happened that dog turned towards me like this his tail went between his legs and he just said he was running straight for them he just rude to do to to ran right back to the porch and I walk towards my wife my son I was like you okay baby I've got you covered what what happened well this terrifying thing actually had some kind of shaking going on after that okay but this thing happened and my body had a reaction it was an instinctive reaction this is something God has put inside of us and it's interesting because the number to fear pole was done and many Poles have been done and I learned this in college so it has to be true the number two fear that people face that they deal with the most is death - that means there's the number one fear that's even greater than death public speaking yes yes that means you would rather die then speak in public the people you don't know I've experienced this with singing and preaching up I God's blessed me and I'm used to sing a little bit and and got up to sing in our church they kind of basically hold a gun to my head when I was 15 years old I begin to sing hymn and from then on I was given solos in the choir and then that Sunday I'm seeing that Friday night and that Sunday she gave me a soul in the choir and I was like I kept my heart was pounding I had to pray for three hours before I ever got up in the microphone and pretty much every time I ever sang it was this crushing fear and and when I first started preaching it was this way that people were looking at me and and the thing is it's a fear of rejection how are people going to perceive you are they going to like you are they going to reject you it's a fear of messing up it's a fear of doing something terribly wrong in front of everybody as we all do sweer stuff but we can kind of hide it but when you're up here in front of everybody if you do something weird everybody's gonna see you and have a reaction and and I want to tell you something Satan controls our entire society through fear and when I was in middle school when I was in sixth grade if you did not wear Tommy Hilfiger jeans you were a total loser Tommy Hilfiger I don't even know if they make Tommy Hilfiger juniors Tommy Hilfiger is still out there yeah oh good in that great and and if you did not wear Reebok high tops you were an l7 weenie and if you I had a pair of cavalry Chi pants y'all don't even know what cavalry Chi pants are do you it was the ugliest looking dumb things I ever put on my butt but but it was cool it was like it was real tight here it went down to here and then it got super baggy and then I said why they're like elastic around your ankles and if you walk average see pants you were the thing yo and and and but if you didn't if you are regular jeans and God forbid if you ironed your jeans people would look at you and they would I remember people being made fun of because they dressed a certain way in that what is this there's this something called peer what is peer pressure it's fear group fear it's a controlling mechanism to cause you to speak certain ways and caused you to wear certain things listen style in our culture a lot of it's based on fear folks the styles that come in and this is what everybody's wearing and if you don't worry everybody looks at you like what in the world are you wearing well it was just in style a week ago it's a fear and and this is how I know I know there's there's girls they cannot walk out of their house without putting makeup on because they fear what people will think about them there's guys man let me tell you something I've seen on at our campus we saw some guys they were a bunch of thugs man and they they they acted like thugs and they tried to show everybody they were thugs and really what it was was a fear somebody would see the real them it's based upon fear so these things are there how many of you have faced fear at your school you you wanted to do something but you're like huh what are people gonna think about me what if I mess up everybody should be raising your hand because probably everybody yeah thank you fear will come to you especially one god apostolic young people because the devil knows how much power that's in your spirit through the Holy Ghost and so the moment you try to do something the moment you get something in your heart to do for God this spirit of fear will come to you what are people gonna think about you what are you gonna look like what if you mess up what if you don't have the right answer what if you don't say the right things what if you start a club and nobody shows up you're gonna look like a fool I want to talk about how to overcome fear I got seven minutes I'm gonna put this real quick second Timothy chapter 1 Paul said wherefore I put the in remembrance that they'll stir up the gift of God stirring up the gift is the counterbalance to the influence of the spirit of fear stirring up the gift is the counterbalance to the influence of the spirit of fear in other words the more full of the Holy Ghost you get the lest fear has dominion over you has anybody ever been in a church service and man the Holy Ghost is flowing and that came on you and you you started doing something you never did in your life give me some hands if it's been you any any time ever maybe maybe you you always wanted to lay hands on somebody but you couldn't do it then the Holy Ghost came on your foot to e you like give me somebody right now hot hand or maybe maybe you felt like runner than anybody ever running around the church we have any aisle runners in the house well we only got like 18 aisle runners my goodness it's awesome you got to try it somebody ought to do before this session is over just run around the place nobody's got to chase you and what is this the Spirit of God will come upon you and cause you to act in a way that is beyond your personality young lady said she's normally quiet I want to tell you all something I am normally quiet and that's something I'm a very introverted personality I'm incredibly introverted until I get anointed then I'm a freak I don't care what anybody thinks about me I got it before the Sun came up I've been in the presence of God this morning folks the anointing of God came on me in a way I don't I haven't felt in so long it was incredible and I'm I'm starting all over my bed and crying and speaking in tongues and I'm doing it loud enough for everybody else to hear what is that that's not me that's not my normal personality that is the Spirit of God sort of if you can get the Spirit of God stirred up before you go to school how many of you went to youth Congress when they great I couldn't go yeah my son poked his eye with a piece of glass and it drained out they had to refill it and put stitches in and all kinds of crazy stuff so cancelled our session but I did hear the preaching and I talked to some of the guys that did the preaching my one of my great friends Mark Brown did a survey you'll remember that he did the survey so I don't want to ask in body here the question do you pray before you go to school and I don't want to ask you how long you pray hopefully since Youth Congress everything's changed and everybody's praying at least an hour a day before you go to school because here's the deal if you go to school in your flesh the spirit of fear is just gonna be like you have no resistance to it now there's gonna be a few freaks that are just in their personality they can do stuff but really nothing's gonna last because it wasn't the Holy Ghost but listen even if you're quiet even if you're introverted even if you feel like you don't have the right stuff to say if you go get in a prayer meeting before school ever starts get up a little bit early and get into a prayer meeting before school ever starts when you walk onto your campus the Holy Ghost inside of you that's been stirred will take the spirit of fear and put it in its place well hallelujah these are things I pray every single day I pray God everybody say God deliver me from people completely deliver me from the fear of people because God has given us some promises that let us know we are the ones who were supposed to be causing the fear Deuteronomy 11:25 there shall no eighth man be able to stand before you for the Lord your God shall be the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon as he hath said unto you Joshua tendin 8 and the Lord said unto Joshua fear them not everybody say fear them not come on yelling at me fear them not for I have delivered them into thine hand there shall not a man of them stand before these Psalms 118 and 5 I called upon the Lord and distress and the Lord answered me and sent me in a large place who owns this place I do God put me here the Lord on my side I will not fear what can man doing to me I pray these every morning the fear of man bringeth the snare but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe Jeremiah 1 and 8 be not afraid of their faces anybody ever got a dirty look be not afraid of their faces for I'm with thee to deliver thee saith the Lord Hebrews 13:2 5 let your conversation be without covetousness be content with such things as you have for he said have said I will never leave thee nor forsake thee so that we may boldly say the Lord is my helper and I will not fear what man shall do unto me let me tell you the best way to overcome fear is to do the very thing that you fear the most how many of you fear walking up to complete strangers and inviting them to church or to your club how many of you fear that we have about 40% honest maybe 10 percent of you don't fear it the other whatever percentage is either in denial or whatever the best way to overcome fear is to do the very thing you fear to do now listen I'm telling you the truth I'm an extremely introverted person I would fast and pray for revival I went to a Christian school an apostolic Christian school growing up and before that I went to a public middle school for sixth grade and I was in just a total loser I mean I had didn't have a hold of God I was absolutely pathetic and but then when I went to the Christian school God got ahold of me and I begin to pray and so I went to college when I went to college I came out of this sterile environment at Christian school and I went to this the college campus and it's summertime and man it's like Sodom and Gomorrah it's like the most horrific atmosphere I've ever seen in my life and and there's devils and the first class I went into the it was comparative religions and the professor said okay let me see what we're working with here are there any Catholics in the room I was like 50 people in the room any Catholics in the room like 20 people lifted their hands he said okay are there any Methodists five people live to their hands are there any Presbyterians few people live to their hands are there any witches now I'm a Pentecostal boy that came out of a Christian private school and I'm sitting on the front row ready to learn about comparative religions I'm thinking it's gonna show me a scholarly view of Christianity and the other religions compared to and he said are there any witches and these two girls right next to me lifted their hands I was like are there any atheists he said I'd I got one more question are there any of those crazy holy rolling tongue talking Pentecostals yeah well thank you for being so bold I was not so bold I was scared half to death I was petrified folks my hands felt like they weighed 10,000 pounds my eye was sweating all over and I was praying God please let somebody else raise their hand please with somebody else and nobody was raising their hand and it was just I had the the dumb thought of sitting right up front cuz I went to college orientation and I heard that if you sit up front you get a easier than if you sit in the second row and I'm like oh my god it's me and this demonic man looked over at me and he said oh okay now I know what I'm dealing with and for the rest of the semester this man berated me beat me up verbally assaulted me made me look like a fool in the class I prayed he would die it's in the Psalms she saying what read the Bible now I know we need to pray for our enemies a night but I didn't have a right spirit so I picked what scriptures I wanted but but I want to tell you it was my it was a confrontation of the spirit of fear and I want to tell you something I was so afraid of people I couldn't talk to anybody and I was trying to overcome and trying to overcome and finally one day God said go to the cafeteria and tell everybody you're doing a Bible study on Stine and in the cafeteria there's hundreds of students I was terrified of them hundreds of them there's there's the whole section is filled with Goths you know what Goths are they were all black black makeup black rings black everything and they were sitting over there and then we have this several Satanists that are sitting over here and then we got a bunch of athletes over here they look like they own the world and then the professors are in there and he's like I want you to go on lunch oh man my hand started sweating hard started powder because I knew it was God and finally I just I had been dealing with this for years folks years years years finally I just said whatever happens happens and I went into the cafeteria and I stood up on a chair while people were eating around me and I said may I have your attention and I got it and I said hey we're having to Jesus Bible study outside under the oak tree if you want to learn more about Jesus come outside God will touch you god bless you went outside you want to know what happened a whole slew of students follow me outside thanks for typing and and and fear the fear that had ahold of me folks broke forever what do you fear to do what do you fear to do at your school what do you fear because see fear is the barrier the devil puts around the next dimension what do you fear to do you fear to say hey I want to pray for you you feel the gifts fear to give somebody a card about your church or invite them to your pizza what do you fear to do fear is the lock that the devil puts on the door to the next level of the Holy Ghost pouring through your life and if you can bust through that fear you're gonna operate on the level you never have in your entire life lift your hands right now if you want what I'm talking about and that's your voice out let your voice out don't worry Masada became inaudible moukaku shaker ooh yeah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah I'm gonna tell you one more story and then I'm gonna be done I'm at a time I'm at a time I was on I was on our campus and dealing with all this stuff this is before I went to the lunchroom I've been praying fasting God I want to see revival on my campus I could see it in my head I could see it when I prayed I could see these visions in my head one of the visions that I saw with this was this huge athlete basketball player getting baptized in Jesus name in a pool I saw it him and I saw his dancing on the sidewalks at our school so praying the fast and pray too fast and was too afraid to talk to anybody and at our school at the college there was a group of Hindus that danced in the center lawn and they gave free food to people well one of them was the priest he was dressed in this white robe and everybody came to him and he would he would pray for them or say a blue blessing over them they would bow and they would move on it was like a Hindu prayer line and this is like the last days of the last semester that I would be there and and God spoke to me he said go talk to him which kind of freaked me out I didn't know I didn't know how to talk to a Hindu priest or what I would say to a Hindu priest or if the devil's inside of him were gonna jump on me or something he would go talk to him and so I did but probably everybody here would do I acted like I heard absolutely nothing and I kept on walking and and it and it happened again he said go talk to him and then the third time go talk to him and I I turned around and everybody had cleared out and it was just him sitting on the bench and I knew I was about to leave and and so I went and sat down next to him and what I did i sat there for a few minutes wondering what am I gonna say did this guy does he even speak English she looked Indian does he even speak English and and finally I just got sick of sitting there and I turned around I took my glasses off and he turned around to face me and when that happened this Hindu monk started shaking and trembling in gulping and gasping for air I never said I'm a Pentecostal I never said I'm gonna lay hands on you I never said the word Jesus I didn't speak in tongues and he said to me I am not allowed to talk to you I can't talk to you I can't talk to you I can't talk to you I can't talk to you I'm just looking at my own the world's happening right now and he picked up his Bible it's a Hindu Bible called the Bhagavad Gita he picked it up he put it in my face he said you you read this book and I can talk to you you read this book I'm like I'm not reading that book he's like that I can't talk to you I can't talk to you and the Holy Ghost spoke to me he said he said the spirits inside of him recognized the Holy Ghost inside of you they know you they knew you they've been hiding from you and you won't expose them until you make a move he said you had dominion here and you didn't even know it he tell you young people and then then we sat there and then I got real bold I just looked at him and he looked at me he's an old Hindu priest I'm a young college kid he looked at me he said may I please leave he was asking me from my permission well the only reason why he would ask me for permission is if I was in charge I was in charge and I didn't even know it spiritually folks let me tell you young people something when you go to your schools and you've got the Holy Ghost and you understand the oneness of God when you walk onto your school's ground the devil knows your name he knows your background he knows your address he knows everything about you and he's doing everything he can to keep you in a box of fear because if you ever step out of that box you're gonna start exposing how weak he really is you're gonna find out how weak that devil really is and you're gonna start telling everybody everybody everybody everybody everybody about Jesus and the Holy Ghost is gonna fall on your campus and students are gonna be filled with the Holy Ghost and healed in their bodies in the classrooms on the sidewalks everywhere you go but you gotta break the spirit of fear
