[Music] wow [Music] oh i've been running for jesus a long time been running for jesus a long time i've been running for jesus a long time a long time [Music] [Applause] say no a long time [Applause] [Music] [Applause] no [Applause] [Music] [Applause] a long [Music] [Applause] say no [Music] [Applause] [Music] on thursday night [Music] i'm praising jesus [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] say no [Music] hallelujah [Music] [Applause] [Music] a long time since the priesthood i'm not hired yet i've been singing for jesus for a long time [Music] well praise the lord everybody let's give the lord a praise hallelujah well how many knows what today is today is pentecost sunday and we've never put a lot of emphasis on that because we're pentecostal every sunday for you know for all the denominational churches you know they focus on pentecost sunday this is the day that we celebrate what happened in the upper room hallelujah but it did not die with the apostles how many knows that it did not die for the apostles listen people say that you know that died back then and all that kind of stuff but if you do some research online you know you read all these articles you know how churches are declining they're losing people there's less people going to church and now more than ever before but there uh is a thing to that that most people don't know unless you do a little bit of research pentecostalism is the only denomination in the world that's actually growing there's 35 000 people worldwide that convert to pentecostalism every day and a lot of that's in africa and south korea places where you can get beheaded for you know being pentecostal and serving the lord but there's more pentecostals now more than any other denomination besides catholics and they believe in the next few years that pentecostals will surpass the catholics as the largest denomination in the world but i read this this morning there's about a billion catholics there's around 700 million pentecostals and when i say pentecostals that's everybody that that they call us tongue talkers you know so uh there's around 700 million tongue talkers worldwide like i said there's 35 000 a day converting from some other other religion to pentecostalism but i read this in 1980 six percent of all global christians were pentecostals now when we say christians they're lumping the catholics the methodists the lutheran the baptist they're they're lumping everyone together who says they that they are a christian only six percent of global christians in 1980 were pentecostals well by 2015 25 this is how this is how quick pentecostalism is growing by 2015 25 of global christians were pentecostals and they believed by 2025 which is just four years from now 40 percent that's i mean i'm telling you people are converting by the tens of thousands on a daily basis people are looking for more they're looking for more of god they're looking for more of the spirit they believe by 2025 40 of all global christians will be pentecostals and that's because people are converting from from catholics even jewish people are converting to pentecostal lutherans methods are converting to pentecostalism so we are not dead we are surely alive amen and i felt bad because when i was reading this they said every every denomination yearly is losing so many thousands of people so many thousands of people but a lot of those people are not just stopping going to church i'm sure some of them are but many of those people that these denominations are losing they're converting to pentecostalism so god's not losing them they're just i don't mean this bad they're moving on up a step hallelujah we are who we are because we like being who we are amen so we believe in speaking in tongues we believe in the bat we believe the baptism of the holy ghost is for us today it didn't end 2000 years ago on the day of pentecost but it is for us today amen so praise the lord why don't you stand right now and shake hands with somebody greet somebody if you're watching by the way the internet thank you for joining us on we're going to sing about how it all started just here in a minute

he's always there hallelujah so many things to love about the lord and i thank god this morning that he's he's here in our midst i feel his presence i know he's present amen her brother tommy bates preaches this morning uh i heard that message about four times already but it's good again and uh he talked about jesus was in the house jesus was in the house he's here this morning and he's here to bless somebody to lift somebody up to change somebody's life if life is dealt you a bad hand amen you're sitting at the wrong table amen get up and move amen find another table to sit down i guess tables on my mind brother zeke mentioned table this morning brother daniel preached about the table the other day but listen if life is dealt you a bad hand you don't give up that's right you just trust the lord to make things better trust jesus put it in the hands of the lord whatever your situation is whatever your circumstance is just put it in the hands of the lord and worship him hallelujah i'm telling you when you come in this morning and when i came in and began to worship and praise the lord with this wonderful praise and worship i'm telling you i'm just beginning to feel totally totally different that's right that's right i begin to feel totally different amen why because he inhabits the praises of his people you sort of get out of that fleshly realm that we all we all live in a fleshly realm if you're alive this morning you're living in some flesh if you don't have flesh surrounding you you're dead amen you've been going to be with jesus but when we live in this fleshly realm we have those feelings you know maybe you're a little tired maybe a little aggravated maybe you got a little concern about things going on in your life your home your family whatever the case may be but when you begin to worship praise the lord you feel a difference amen that's the reason i praise him all the time i praise him every day i praise him when i'm working when i'm driving amen i praise him on my bed and praise him sometimes sitting watching tv that's right you say well if you're watching the right thing you can some things you can't really praise god what's going on there you know but listen uh sometimes just praise the lord i guess i was watching perry stone or somebody this week maybe jimmy swaggart i don't remember but i just began to praise the lord sister ronnie was gone she was working at school i was there by myself i just began to praise the lord just felt his presence right there it's good to know that he's there it's good to know that he's here this morning that he's able he's bigger than any mountain that you're facing bigger than any problem that's before you this morning god is bigger hallelujah he's greater do you love him give him another handclap for praise and say thank you jesus thank you jesus hallelujah i'd like to congratulate again sister caitlin for graduating from our christian school stand up just for a second turn around everybody look at you amen sister caitlyn's called into the ministry also we're proud of you sister caitlin all of our young people are proud of it she's the only we have four graduates she's the only one that attends our church here and uh we had a great great school commencement graduation service friday night and sister ronnie sister debbie says to tracy and all these uh uh sister ruby they all worked so hard uh you know miss ruby assistant tracy's mother-in-law she comes and tutors from from she comes all the way from london my sister ronnie mr davidson to tracy are here all the time and uh our school is a wonderful thing for children that have opportunity to come to it and i just wanted to give them honor this morning and uh thank god that we have 28 years and 28 years ago sister debbie felt led to start a christian school and sister ronnie of course felt that same uh urgency and uh they started a christian school in down on green river road there in the basement of our church it's still it's still going 2021 still going hundreds of kids have come through this school and their lives have been changed and they have you know had had opportunity to get ahead and maybe some of them was in trouble maybe some of them you know i was having problems uh pastor jerry mcgillin was here uh his son's in her school he was here friday night and he was asked to do the opening prayer and he got up and he gave this testimony he said he said 20 years ago he came into this christian school troubled teenager or 22 years ago he graduated 20 years ago but 22 years ago he came into our christian school he gave the testimony he was a troubled teenager and his parents had tried everything and they sent him to redemption road christian academy amen he said it changed his life so i want to give sister ronnie sister david sister tracy i want to thank you all yes [Music] and i know sometimes you you ladies feel unappreciated maybe even by church folks that just sort of ignore you sort of look over the school sometimes but listen the school i'm telling you is a wonderful ministry that god has given us the opportunity to have and they're getting older sister ronnie's getting older and sister debbie's sister tracy's not quite there yet but they're getting older and sometimes i wonder how many more years can they hold out and who's going to take their place but i tell you god knows god will always have somebody that'll stand in the gap on him that's just ronnie said how much longer are you going to teach sister ronnie you know when she turned 65 somebody comes hey are you retiring she said no i'm not retired amen and she'll she'll soon be 69 or 70. she just turned 68 i believe so a couple years she's going to hit the big 7-0 and she said i want to teach all my grandchildren how to read and so we have great we have eight grandchildren and she's taught everyone how to read so far except for jerry lee and charlie we started school this fall sister ronnie's learning to read class and so she'll fulfill that vision in this next semester and so that's a wonderful thing to be able to teach all eight of your grandchildren how to read it really is amen but we uh we have plenty of little things that happen i just want to talk about the school for a few minutes because they put a lot of work into this school and the students and we have a student that i i aggravate a little bit and talk to and her name is harper that's brother jones sister ashley's little daughter and sister uh debbie's granddaughter and uh i guess the reason i'm i'm attracted to harper not that i i try to treat everybody alike but harper i'm drawn to harper because i see her great-great-grandma in her [Music] and when we started redemption road church we had very few supporters but granny hannah was one of them diehard supporters believed in mid-sister ryan she came stayed with us until she passed on to go be with jesus and when i look at little harper i see granny handle looking at me a little harper came to learn how to read this year the little harper she's uh she just honest she came up to sister ronnie and she said grabbed her arm and shook her arm because sister arm shakes you know oh and she said you're made out of rubber and uh and then one day sister ronnie's got another little girl in there she's got she had three this year she has another little girl to shell and sister ryan comes home telling me stories about all the kids and she said one day harper came up against it told sister ryan said you don't have hair you have a wig sister ryan said no honey this is this is my hair she said no that's a wig and sister i said no harper said if i bought a wig i sure wouldn't buy one that looked like this harper said yes it is a wig and deshale's sitting over here just listen she just says all of a sudden no harper it is not a wig it's just really old hair so i get all these stores from school amen and uh so i appreciate i appreciate everything that everybody does for the lord it doesn't matter what it is well if you're doing something for jesus it's important hallelujah it's really important and uh i'm so glad that god has given us opportunity to do the things we've done in these last 34 years it's been an adventure and uh we're still on on the journey and i told a brother one time i said i said we're like warriors on a journey i said you can imagine one of these movies that's got a warrior an ancient warrior he's going through deserts and mountains and jungles and he's killing dragons and he's doing all these things you know and he has some hard times he has some good times but he makes it you know he comes out in the end because he makes it but it's been a battle i said it's the way it is this ministry has been an adventure is an adventure and we're just traveling through hallelujah sometimes we have mountaintop experiences sometimes which feels like we're in the wilderness sometimes we're trying to cut away through a jungle sometimes we're fighting a dragon amen that's that's the devil amen but we got god on our side that's what matters hallelujah i'm just glad you got god on your side thank you jesus amen well i tell you it's time to receive the offering of the brother joe and the ushers will come we'll give you an opportunity to support this great work that god has put in our hands all of us amen he's put it in our hands he's entrusted us with it and until he comes to get us or time runs out for us naturally on earth amen we're going to keep on keeping on and so just get your tithe and you're offering ready let's ask god to bless it this morning father in the mighty name of jesus we thank you for this special time of giving and we pray god that you will just bless every family of the church and god that you just save the lost heal the sick set the captain free lord and pray that you bless each one as they give this offering to support this wonderful ministry we'll give you praise for it in jesus name amen just give to the lord this morning let god bless you [Music] when the children of israel began to love [Music] is and said keep the faith god is [Music] is it will just [Applause] in the way whatever you need [Music] but i can tell you oh satan's still fighting me and he thinks he saw the wind he's got the same strength and power [Music] [Applause] foreign it is just be [Music] to do and he's willing to do [Applause] whatever well hallelujah god's able this morning everybody say amen he is able and he is willing whatever you need hallelujah well i tell you i feel like i duck out of water because i'm just wandering around here doing hardly nothing because brother jeremiah says ronnie said i had to take off two weeks but i'm next sunday morning i'm gonna be preaching hallelujah so everybody pack a picnic lunch because it may be a long service hallelujah but we're glad this morning i appreciate brother brother daniel brother joe that's filled in here these last two weeks these young men have stepped up to the plate awesome ministers not taken away from the older ministers but these young men i'm telling you it's rare to see young many more enter to a ministry like these have but brother daniel's going to be bringing the message this morning i want him to come i appreciate brother daniel tell you a little bit about brother daniel he came to us when he was a teenager he met on fire for the lord and i hired him to work for me amen and he worked for me for 10 years tirelessly sacrificing and i ran a large bit i had a large business and uh i won't tell you what i was involved in it financially but it was it was it was more than most people knew what was doing because we didn't broadcast it around but it was a lot of responsibility a lot of work a lot of stress it was a very stressful business and up to december 31 2019 brother daniel served me with honor and i appreciate him so much he could have quit he could have went to higher paying jobs he could have went to something else but i needed him i told him i said i need you i need you he said well i'm gonna stay with you pastor not only that he served egyptian road church well in these last years that he's been with us so let's get brother daniel hands he brings the message today come on let's give a little handcuff of praise hallelujah today is pentecost sunday and there's something about pentecostal people in this that we're not nervous people we're not quiet people i know i've been in some pentecostal churches it's quiet i've been to some that don't hardly make any noise but redemption road church is a pentecostal church we're not nervous we like to make noise so why don't we just make a little noise for the lord this morning coming open your mouth let's magnify the name of the lord on pentecost sunday are you thankful to be pentecostal are you thankful for the experience of pentecost this morning this heritage that was given to you hallelujah thank you jesus for pentecost i say thank you jesus for pentecost it's all right to turn loose on sunday morning and have pentecostal meetings come on some pentecostals let's give the lord a shout of praise hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah blessed be the name of the lord i told my wife i said for a while there i said that you can stay standing read the word if you will i said i would get nervous when i would preach if it got quiet and i said well recently i've gotten out of that brother todd i don't really get nervous when it gets quiet i said i guess it's because people soak in what's being said but it makes it easier to preach when it's not quite and you have someone saying hallelujah or glory or preach it brother you know when someone comes to the altar and gets saved after a preach after someone preaches the people will say well that was a wonderful message because of the way he delivered it the way he preached it that it touched that person's heart and because he preached they got saved i agree with that but i also agree it's because the someone in the building began to witness and bear witness of what was being said so they said amen brother hallelujah brother that's right brother so the moment you begin to open your mouth and say amen hallelujah you're bearing witness what's what's being said and the unbeliever sees that and it says you know what they think it's right they think it's right so maybe it's right so i need to go get saved so maybe this morning just open your mouth and let's be pentecostal on pentecostal sunday amen if you got your bible with me to first kings chapter 21 first kings 21 the bible we're gonna read the verse verses one through four i've never really re-preached a message actually never have re-preached a message here at this church every time i bring a message it's something brand new i mix it together put it on the stove and bring it here hot i don't want to bring anything that's left over that's been in the fridge for two weeks and molded and cold and you don't want to hear it but i believe this word right here is still hot we took it off we took it off the stove two years ago i preached in august 2018 it came on hot went out hot and still hot this morning so we're going to preach it again because i feel led to do so first kings chapter 2 21 verses 1. the bible says and it came to pass after these things that naboth the jezreelite had a vineyard which was in jezreel hard by the palace of ahab king of samaria and ahab spake in the naboth saying give me thy vineyard that i may have for it a garden of herbs because it is near unto my house and i will give thee for it a better vineyard than it or if it seem good to thee i will give thee the worth of it in money and naboth said to ahab the lord forbided me that i should give the inheritance of my fathers unto thee and ahab come into his house heavy and displeased because of the word which naboth the jezreelite had spoken to him for he has said i will not give thee the inheritance of my father if i could for a few moments this morning preach on the subject it's still not for sale we preached two years ago and two and a half years ago it's not for sale this morning two and a half years later it's still not for sale let us pray father we come to you in the mighty name of jesus lord god we magnified we glorify your name we lift you higher than anything else in this world we pray in the mighty name of jesus god that you're anointed we begin to move in this word god open our hearts and open our ears that we'll receive and and to take what this word has and apply it to our lives lord hide me behind the cross of calvary and lord i never fail to give you the praise for it's in jesus name and let the church shout amen you may be seated today in the presence of the lord it's still not for sale our text today is found in 1st kings chapter 21 verses 1 through 4. this morning when you woke up out of the bed we woke up to springtime you woke up went outside i put my suit and tie on journeyed out to the little building there before we left for church and went outside and it was a beautiful day out today it was sunny and warm 80 degrees is about 78 probably now it's 85 or 86 it's a beautiful day to go outside and see the blessings of the lord you hear the birds chirping you see people smiling you see people dress in bright colors it's a great day to be alive amen but i woke up this morning went outside and it was just so beautiful outside but as i was studying this message and began to think of of the world and what's going on around us i thought man we're living in a very dark time we're living in a very dark age i know in the physical in the natural you see outside it's beautiful it's lovely it's bright it's warm it's sunny but spiritually if you were to look through your spiritual eyes this morning you would see that it's a dark world that we're living in that it's a dark age that we're living in there's chaos all around there's lawlessness all around there's things going on in this world that does not look like it is in the natural for there's things going on in the supernatural in the spiritual realm there's wickedness going on in high places things that we cannot see within that natural eye it's darkness all around and as i was thinking about this darkness i heard pastor tommy bates preach a while back on this particular subject about the the book of judges and if you look into the book of judges you will see that as one of the most wicked and dark times ever recorded in the bible the book of judges is one of the most darkest times ever recorded in this book because if you begin to read through the book of judges you see that in the moment of the book of judges you see that there's no king there to rule over israel there's no one there to give law there's no one there to govern the people there's no one there that that that says you can can't do this and the bible says i believe in the last the last chapter the last verse of the book of judges it says every man did that which was right in his own eyes that was saying they didn't have a law to go by they didn't say you do this and don't do this if you just do what you want if your neighbor molded the yard the wrong way and you didn't like the way they mowed and you didn't like them they they got on your nerves you could go out and pull your gun out and shoot them dead and i may think well why would you do that that's crazy but you did what was right in your own eyes you got to do what you wanted to do if you went down to the grocery store i'm talking about the book of judges it's a dark time if you went down to the grocery store and you filled your cart full and you decided well i need to keep my money so i can go on vacation you could just walk out of the door with all your money because there was no one there to say don't do that you did what was right in your own eyes and i'm afraid today as we look in this world and i believe we're living in a time maybe like it was in the book of judges i'm talking about being a dark time i know it's sunny and bright outside i know it's spring and it's warm but spiritually we're living in a time that it's dark we're living in a time of chaos we're living in a time like judges i was reminded of the story of the levite man with the the concubine how that this man was living in in wickedness living in darkness and how this man was living with this woman that wasn't even his wife this concubine and they were they were having sexual relationship not being married and i'm here to preach this morning that still sin because the bible records it being sin if you're going to have sexual relations you got to be married and in between between a man and a woman that's the way the bible says that's the way we believe [Applause] i was thinking about the sleeve out in this concubine and how this levite had this woman that was living with him not married was have a relationship with him but she went out on him she was not faithful to him was going out and playing the harlot and sleeping with other people the bible goes on to say in judges 19 that she finds her way back to her parents house and the levite man goes back to the parents her parents house and and persuades her and insists her let's go back to the house we'll work this thing out let's go home and on their way home they they come to this city called bahia of the hindu mites and this city there's this man out on the street and he says i know it's late i know it's getting dark you leave out and you concubine come with me let's go in here we'll make you a place of safety a place of rest and you can leave in the morning so they go into this man's house and later on in the evening these men of the city come knocking on the door and they say bring that man that you took in that house earlier bring him so that we may get to know him it was that they were wanting to have relations with this man they're one to commit sodomy they're going to do these things and the man of the master of the house says no no no let's don't do that i'm not going to send him out he's trying to plea with them say no i don't do that so the levite man sends out the concubine woman and the bible says that they have their way with her all night long they abuse her they have they have sex relations with her and when the morning breaks the levite man goes to the door and opens the door and there lies the woman with no breath in her body she's now dead and she's got her hand on the threshold of that door and you're thinking why are you preaching that this morning why are you talking about this morning i'm just trying to talk to you about a time that's a dark age and we're living again in that dark time see as the story goes on the levite man gathers together that woman puts you on the back of the donkey goes back to his house and takes her there and i know this sounds like it ain't even real but it is she takes her there and chops her body up in 12 separate pieces packages it up puts a bow on it and ships it to all 12 tribes of israel to the leaderships of the tribes of israel so they all get to all get this package maybe someone's got a leg maybe someone's got her head or an arm and they gather together the bible says they gather together they open this package they're thinking my goodness what is this why did that what's going on in this world it's wicked out there what the levite man was doing what he was saying was i want to let you know that we're living in a wicked world it's wicked out here i know it's god's people but it's wicked out here and i want you to see the wickedness this morning if i were to go down to the abortion clinic if i were to go down this morning and ask them to give me five babies that they've aborted that they maybe six months could not conceive or even eight months not conceived and they put some type of medicine and injected them and killed their bodies if i were to bring those babies into a plastic bag and lay them on this altar and ask every one of you to take a wine through here you would understand that it's a wicked world that we're living in if i were to go down to the to the to the grave to the morgue and say i need all the give me 10 teenagers go to the big city say give me 10 teenagers that's over that's died from overdose of drugs and alcohol let me have 10 of their bodies and i'll lay them out before you this morning it would cause you to say what in the world is going on because we're living in a wicked world if i were to go again to the morgue and gather up children between the ages of 8 and 12 who had committed suicide during this pandemic it would open your eyes to understand that we're living in a wicked world i know it's beautiful outside i know it's sunny outside i know it looks good naturally but spiritually we are living in a time like it was in the book of judges we are living in a time but the bible says i love this in judges chapter 2 verse 16 the bible says nevertheless the lord raised up judges and the bible says nevertheless the lord raised up judges nevertheless they may be taking them out of the abortion clinic people may be dying left and right from drug overdose people may be committing suicide this morning nevertheless god's raising up a people that can reach out and save a lost and dying world i'm going to get off the story of the levite and concubine that's a whole different message but i wanted to bring it in so that you would understand the moment that we're living in today in 2021 is dark i said it's dark there there's chaos all around there's wickedness all there's vile things going all around us and if you're not careful and you're just you're just you're just tiptoeing through the tulips and living your best life and and eating all the food you can eat making all the money you command it you'll miss the thing that's very going on in the spiritual realm you see demons are all across this world taking lives every second of the day every minute of the day there's drug overdoses there's there's women going to the abortion clinic and killing their little child that's what it is we support parties and we support groups and we stand with people that do these things and that okay these things this morning we don't stand with these things we don't stand on the wicked side we don't stand on the dark side but we stand in the way of light we stand like jesus who said i am the way i am the life he said do we stand with jesus christ this morning and you're saying how in the world does naboth have anything to do with this dark world what does naboth in his vineyard have anything to do with what's going on today let me tell you what's going on with naboth because if you see we move over to first kings and read the scripture back in leviticus we see that in leviticus chapter 25 this is before judges and kings is after the time of judges we understand that in leviticus god spoke in leviticus 25 and 23 he says the this is what the lord says the land shall not be sold forever for the land is mine this is long before a dark time this is before we get into this dark season so maybe i was i was as i was reading this sermon and putting together some more things for it and and praying and studying i thought how that naboth and his heritage and his family his father his daddy those who held onto this land long before he ever got it they had to hold on to it through the dark times because they could have gave it up it could have never made it to naboth but it made it to nabath that vineyard made its sister ronnie through dark times it made it through wicked times nobody sold it nobody ever gave it up but they held onto it why because they were just like naboth this message today is all about holding fast and not forgetting and and contending for the faith the bible says contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to god's people yes even in dark times hold on even in wicked times don't let go even in dark times don't sell the land the heritage that is paid passed down to you you see ahab is a type and shadow of the devil who is trying to get naboth who is a type and shadow of you and i tonight to give up his or her inheritance in christ jesus in john 10 and 10 jesus called the devil a thief who takes things that does not belong to him and heir possesses what does belong to him for tonight we are heirs of god and joint heirs with jesus christ everything he has is ours everything that he gives it's ours tonight it's our heritage and it's not for sale the story of naboth the jezreel he lives in a palace a place called jezreel his land is positioned right beside the palace of the king of samaria ahab and ahab wanted to exchange this land and it seems sister ronnie like a reasonable offer because he says i will give you a better land he said let me have your land i'll give you something that looks better i'll give you something that maybe will grow some stuff better and if you don't want to do that i'll even give you top dollar for it 2021 this is the best time right now anyways i don't know six months from now but this is the best time for you to sell your house the market's perfect for it i don't know if the market will bottom out in six months or even tomorrow but right now if you were to go sell your house it would be perfect time to sell your house thank goodness that nate it would have been a perfect time sister ronnie to sell that vineyard because probably he had that little land and it was surrounded by the king's palace and surrounded by the king's vineyards and surrounded by the king's gardens and maybe he said well you know what i can get good money for this i can i can further my education further my life further my finances if i just sell this land to the enemy but naboth said it's not for sale he said i'm not going to do it but why why did ahab want this land i don't necessarily believe that he won the land just because if his land surrounded naboth's land i believe he looked out into naboth's vineyard and i think he probably saw that it was fruitful i think that he probably saw it was well maintained that he was well taken care of that he went out there every morning and he was committed to that vineyard and he and ahab probably thought man that that vineyard looks better than mine that vineyard looks great that video looks awesome i'm going to take that vineyard that's why he wanted it but naboth refuses the king offer he refuses to sell the land now let's look to this morning at naboth's refusal what are the reasons that he said no the key to understand naboth is to realize that for him the land in question was never just a piece of property his vineyard was his inheritance from his ancestors people who had worked and cared for it all the years before he ever got it it wasn't just land it wasn't just the soil it was the inheritance that was passed down to him this is not just a building this is not just seats this is not just a pulpit this is an inheritance it has been passed down through art through those before us and through jesus christ some folks are willing to trade what they have in christ for what the world can offer them but naboth refused he simply said it's not for sale there are people throughout the bible and through the world today that have traded what they have for what the world has i understand that it looks pleasurable the bible says sin is pleasurable if you stop there and don't even add that for a season you're going to say sin is pleasurable i'm not going to lie it's fun out there i'm not going to lie sister ronnie i'm sure it's fun to go drink and party and i never done it but i'm pretty sure it's probably fine but it's pleasurable only for a season that means you'll go out and party all night long and wake up the next morning with depression in your heart you wake up wanting to kill yourself it's only pleasurable just for a season i believe naboth understood that and i want to be like naboth i want a young i want to i want a group of young people in this generation in this time to be like naboth that will say no i will not sell my land i will not sell my inheritance it is not for self but there are people yes people even in the church that are willing to compromise every time that there is a shifting in the atmosphere every time the devil comes around with something that looks good or appealing they want to sell their inheritance there are those that are like esau for esau who sold his birthright for a bowl of stew they're a son that their god is just their belly and whatever makes them feel good and whatever satisfies their hunger at the moment they're willing to live they're willing to to sell their inheritance just to feed that hunger young people it's easy to give in to the devil it is easy to give into temptation i had a young boy i used to pray a few weeks ago he said pray that i i get rid of this i got the temptations i need to get rid of it i said the temptation is not the sin the temptations is not the wrong thing the t everybody's going to have temptations i don't care how sanctifying holy you think you are you're gonna have temptation but the issue is don't give in to temptation you gotta say i'm not if i get the temptation submit to god resist the devil and he will flee you get rid of that temptation by not giving in to that temptation but some people they got a hunger for the world they got to hunger just to do to be rebellious they got to hunger to go against what mom and daddy says and the preacher says they're just inside of them that's their human nature that's the world inside of them it's their belly longing for something of this world but some of us are like esau we'll trade our inheritance just for a pot of stew just for a a pleasurable time just for a moment maybe you've been in this thing for one week maybe you've only been saved one week maybe you've only been saved two weeks two months but the moment that you were had a new birth the moment that you said jesus christ and you made your way to calvary and the moment that you prayed in the altar and you said god save me that was the moment that you were given a birthright you and i are given a birthright through jesus christ and his blood by the power of the holy ghost you've got a birthright this morning and what is a birthright a birthright is defined as a the right or the privilege or a possession to which a person is entitled to by birth meaning you don't earn it you maybe don't even deserve it but it's yours because you've been born again if you've been born again into this kingdom all these things this bible says you can have it's yours because not because of what you did not because of your actions or or how well you worked how well you lived it's all yours because you've been born again sister ronnie if there's anything in your life that you have or had in the past that was passed down from your mom or daddy or your great grandpa or grandpa or great aunts or anybody in in your lineage before you it's not yours because of what you did it's simply yours because you're just here it's simply yours because you were born and that's how it is in the kingdom of heaven all these things are just simply yours because you've been born again you didn't work for it you didn't labor for it you didn't you didn't you didn't go down and try to get it it just came to you freely handed when you accepted jesus christ as your lord and savior but there are some of those that's like samson the bible talks about this man named samson who was a nazarite and the bible says that's the story of samson that that no razor should ever come to his hair should ever come to his head and cut his head because we know that samson was one of the most powerful people in the bible who had strength and we know that the enemy came in and snuck into samson's life and who was the form of delilah a form of the wicked woman the form of the enemy come in and snuck into his life and said what where does your power lay samson where does it lie this morning where is it he said well it's in this it's in that if you tie me down all the things that he tells her but then he gets to the point sister ronnie that i'm trying to make this morning he gets and lays his head right into lyda's lap and he finally gives over and gives in and says if you were to cut my hair for i'm a nazarite he said there's never been a rage that's come to my head if you were to cut my hair i will lose my strength there are some in here there this morning that will sell everything that they have that will give up the inheritance that has been passed down to you through the kingdom of heaven and through even your life here on earth you'll give it up simply just for a sexual experience with the enemy i i know that's pretty blunt but it's sunday morning and i i try to be res i was thinking i need to be a little bit more reserved because it's sunday morning but there's nothing i'm saying up here this morning that you're not gonna go home and watch on tv that's gonna be that it's gonna be a lot worse there than what it is here i understand that there's there's sickness and death that's going on and we'll trade our life we'll trade our healing we'll trade our inheritance just for a pleasurable moment a sexual experience that relationship with the world you see samson had a relationship with his inheritance he had a relationship with his mom and dad with his lineage he had that relationship but he killed it the moment that he told the enemy just cut my hair off i'll lose my power he lost it just for that relationship with the world for that desire for the world i know she looked probably she probably looked pretty i know that she probably smelled good and her hair looked good but but he traded everything that he possibly had that was given to him over for the world and there are those even like ananias and they're willing to sell out and keep a little bit for themselves and lie to the holy ghost you can go into the book of acts and read about the story of ananias and sapphira and we'll move on but i was thinking there are some people this morning watching by the way the internet in this house this morning in the world that will trade what god's given them and if just for a little bit of money i talked earlier but i said it's perfect time to sell your house it really is you buy you buy a house 10 years ago for ninety thousand you probably sell it for a hundred and fifty thousand sixty thousand a day that's just because that's what's going on but the the paul had came to the anonymous sapphire and said did you sell your land you sell your property and he said yeah we sold it for this amount but the story goes on to say they lied about the amount they sold it for they wanted to keep their money for themselves they want they wanted to keep that little bit for themselves some people this morning are willing to get rid of their inheritance for a sexual experience they're willing to get rid of their their inheritance just for a little bit of money they're willing to get rid of their inheritance just for a pot of stew but we're going to have to be like naboth in this dark generation and in this dark time that says i understand that everything around me is covered with the world but this land that i stand on that i owe that's within these four walls it's not for sale i said it's not for stale there's nothing that can fill my belly in this world there's no sexual experience in this world that i want there's no money in this world that i want that can take the place of the inheritance that's been given to me through the lord jesus christ i said it's not for sale somebody somebody shout it's not for sale hallelujah it's not for sale i said it's not for sale you may come and you may go but it's not for sale redemption road we're not for sale i said we're not for sale hallelujah naboth understood that it was not his to sell the bible says the king requested something from naboth now at the surface it looked like a reasonable offer it looked me it looked like he said give me your vineyard i'll give you something better for that looked reasonable but the bible says that we said earlier leviticus 25 and 23 said the lord said this land shall not be sold forever so naboth understood first of all that it was not his land to sell to begin with it had been given to him all this time to be entrusted to be cared for generation naboth realized that what he possessed was a gift from god and that he was merely just a caretaker just a handler of this gift that was given to him and when his time was come to a close he had to have something in his hand to pass down to the next generation so they can pass it down to the next generation and the next generation if naboth would have sold that sister ronnie there had been nothing in his hand to pass down i wondered this morning do you still have your inheritance i wonder this morning do you still have the goods that's what the old-timers call it they got the goods do you still have the goods this morning i i know you used to speak in tongues and prophesy i know you used to be the one to shout across the floor and let god move on pentecost sunday i know that used to be you but if you sold it have you given it up has the hunger inside you for the world overtaking your inheritance has the money that's been offered to you from this world i'm talking spiritually this morning have you allowed it to overtake that that god's given you because there's a whole seed all you young people under the age of 25 stand up throughout the whole building under the age of 25. there's about 25 here they're waiting on their inheritance they're waiting on something they'll come to the age of accountability if they're not already there sister whitney and they'll be handing they're waiting for that inheritance what's rightfully mined even because i'm in this position i'm born what's mine and if i like it in london if they grow old one day and i can't hand something off to them they'll be like man my daddy worked a lot growing up young sit down my daddy worked a lot growing up my daddy worked all the time he just worked and he ain't got nothing to give me after everything he's done there's nothing that i can have from it there's nothing for me there's nothing for me to have after all the seeds that he saw there's nothing for me to reap that's the issue we're living in spiritually we have sown we've given we've pressed and we've worked so hard in our vineyard and now the next generation is on its way up to say you know what it's about my time to get in that vineyard and start working it's about my time in that vineyard to start doing what i i've seen my mom and daddy do i see my grandma do i've seen my i've heard about it i know what they've done i know they've labored us now it's my turn and if you sell that you hear me this morning if you sell that they'll come to that then you're looking for and he'll be gone they'll come into this house looking for the power of god and he'll be gone they'll come to your house need to hear you pray and they won't hear no praying no more they'll come to your house saying i need a word from the lord there won't be no words no more why because we've given in to the enemy we've given into this world we've sold our inheritance the whole message this morning is don't sell it it's still not for sale we've come through the trial in 2020 and i believe there's a group of people here this morning watching by the way of the internet that said i'm not giving up i'm not giving in i'm not giving over why it's not for sale i'm not going to give into a pandemic and if there's one to come next year you'll know today i'm not selling it it's not for sale i'm not giving in i'm not giving over because simply it's still not for sale i was thinking i was thinking what are these some things in our life we preached this last time two and a half years ago and there's several people this morning that's never actually probably even heard the message and if you have i hope it's just a reboost for your spirit because i believe we need to be rebooted sometimes we come to church on wednesday night not just out of obligation not just because it will they got wednesday night church i'll just go we come to sunday morning sunday night and then we murder ourselves out on wednesday night through the work week wide to get reboosted to get refilled to get rejuvenated so that's maybe what this message is this morning if i can read boost in your spirit don't sell what god's given you your young people need it the next generation needs it not just that the generation that's alive today right now we need it because we're surrounded by a dark world we're surrounded in a dark age with chaos going all around we need a vineyard in the middle of it that can sustain us that can bring us through that can take us over don't sell your vineyard don't sell your inheritance some of the things that's not for sale this morning number one last time i preached i printed out some of these signs again last time we preached and put tape on these signs sister ronnie we laid them different places i'm just going to use the same concept just not use the tape but we understand this morning that salvation is not for sale you see there's a new there's a new lifestyle of of preaching salvation a new way of preaching salvation that that the seeker-friendly movement's moving in saying you're already saved you just have to realize that you're saved that's that's the thought you're born saved you just got to come to the the realization hey i'm actually already saved and then there's another thing that says there's many ways to god i can understand i can actually understand that one because there aren't many ways to god but there's only one way to get to god there's many ways to god but there's only one way through god and that's jesus christ for he said i am the way the truth and the life no man comes to the father but by me it don't need no explanation there is no other way it's not for sale first peter 1 and 18 says for as much as you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things as silver and of gold from your vain conversations received by the tradition from your fathers but with the precious blood of christ as a lamb without blemish and without spot it's you have to be redeemed by the blood of the lamb the salvation plan the admit to believe in the confess it's not for sale i don't care what big name preachers say i don't care what the church on the road says and i don't even care what these new version bibles say it's not for sale our word and our salvation is not for sale this morning our pulpit our pulpit this morning sister ronnie is not for sale i said it's not for sale the scriptures are not for sale i said our scriptures are not for sale in 2021 never in my life i've been long i've been around that long 30 years never in my 30 years i was raised southern baptist we preached out the king james version bible that's just how we were taught the baptist church we even taught that here at the pentecostal church i don't really care what bible you read as long as you're reading the bible i'd say you stick to king james version because it's about the closest you can get to the real one amen but even in the baptist church they taught us the word of god they showed us the word of god i remember when i was young i was probably 13 12 or 13 my sister was younger and she could we were on a our pastor was teaching at the time at the baptist church on how to memorize scripture and she was young and she remembered around 798 different scriptures in the bible and we were on this like journey i do her and she was trying to outdo me and i was wanting to learn as much more scriptures than she could but she passed me up she got to 798 and i got to like 769 and i was going to aggravate i said jesus is going to keep learning them so i'm just going to quit so i was like well i just want to give up and give in i was young then but we were learning the true word of god and this morning is still not for sale i don't care what people say about it i don't and what i was saying was in 2021 never in my 30 years of living have i seen people that get so offended over this book and i'm not talking about the world the world even read this book and if they own it it's in the corner somewhere with with with dust on it they never even open it up i'm talking about god's people i'm talking about people that are part of the 12 tribes of israel those who are judah who's got the praise and got the shout and got all the things going on right in their life i'm talking about how it's so easily to get offended by this book we can read one scripture out of here and it will offend the church it will offend the people it will make people aggravated many people agitated make people mad because well he delivered it wrong well he read it the wrong way he he pronounced that word wrong and it made and it made him seem like he was being aggravated or mean or hateful i i don't understand why people get so offended by this book but even in the midst of offense it's still not for sale i don't care how aggravated you get or how finished you get it's still the uncompromised word of god for second timothy 3 and 16 says all scripture is every every word in this book is given by inspiration of god and it is profitable for doctrine for reproof and even for correction for instruction in righteousness for the word of god is quick and it's powerful then any two-edged sword this word is powerful this word is true and this word is not for sale i've said it's not for sale i said it's not for sale somebody shout hallelujah somebody shout is not for sale [Applause] the four walls of this church redemption road we're not for sale i said we're not for sale you see the bible says in matthew 16 and 18 he said i say unto thee also this is jesus speaking that thou art peter and upon this rock i will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it this is the church i said and ain't just the four walls of the carpet but we the body we are the church we're not for sale there's no hunger in this world that i want there's no money in this world that i want there's nothing in this world that i want why because i want everything god's given me i want the inheritance of my fathers and of my grandfathers i want the inheritance of pentecost i know pentecost came over 2000 years ago but it's still being passed down from generation to generation to generation and i want that i want the pentecostal experience i want praying in tongues and speaking in tongues laying hands on the sick and seeing them recover i want that that's our inheritance and it's not for sale we the body are not for sale some may fall out and some may go some may come in they may leave but those that are that are grounded in the word grounded in the church grounded in the body that are the feet that are the arms that are the head that are the the body the feet the toes the hands everything we simply say to the devil this morning it's still not for sad hallelujah not only our church is not for sale in our bodies but our altars are not for sale and i was thinking as we come through this pandemic we come through this pandemic and we had to shut things down and can't do certain things because of this virus that you couldn't even see i said this virus we couldn't even see we were so fearful of it and being alert about it and and taking precaution and i believe that was right to do so and for that reason we had to quit praying and simply praying in the altars laying hands on the sick because of the six feet rule we were trying to be compliant we were trying to go the right way and and stay in law and do what we were supposed to do but through the pandemic and as we come into 2021 the devil trying to shut our altars up and you're saying well you're calling the this sickness the devil we i'm calling the sickness the devil they try to shut our altars up let me tell you the most i understand this but this this sickness has taken many lives i know that has caused people that you would think never would get sick from it or who got sick from it you think well they never take them out but it did i understand that we all understand that as a body but there's no organization there's no person there's no group of bodies in the whole world that he hit more than hit the church i said he hit more than hit the church why because it's more spiritual than it is physical i understand it's a physical sickness i understand it makes you sick and can take your life i understand that but i also understand through the word of god that this thing is spiritual it's not just physical i don't just see through the eyes of my my physical natural eyes but i see through the eyes in my spirit that we can see that this is a spiritual thing it was trying to kill our altars it was trying to kill laying hands on the sick and seeing them recover what he was trying to do was he was trying to take this word and twist it and change it and say we no longer can pray in the altars but 2021's come around and our altars are not for sale we'll still pray we'll still still lay hands on the sick and see them recover we'll still do the things that god told us to do in his word [Applause] our worship's not for sale our music's not for sale brother jeremiah you're not for sale i said you're not for sale judah where are you buddy you're not for sale buddy you play the drums now you're not for sale pastor you're playing the guitar you're not for sale i play the organ i'm not for sale those who sing in the praise seem singing the choir we're not for sale why because there's been a heritage of musical talent and musical anointing that's been passed down into this house through the south through songs of of the red back hymnal through songs out of this old white hole in this book here that we'll begin to sing and the power of god begin to move and someone who's in the back corner who's got cancer in their body sister dabbing and we'll begin to pray and we'll begin to worship and we'll begin to sing and how that god will begin to move in the music in the worship and god will heal miraculously that's why it's not for sale i said that's why it's not for sale we still sing the old songs we'll even sing the new songs but it's not for sale tell my young people run groups want trips sometimes i tell them i say now don't be listening that worldly music they laugh at me i ain't laughing don't listen that world to music i say what you listening to i ask them how to say what's your phone say i want to see it let me see what your phone says i'm trying to watch over your kids because i don't want them to sell out to the devil and i'm the one over here hold the sign up for him look at the devil comes knocking at the door i'm i'm the one going no this is my yard sale man all the other things you can take the envy the strides the hatred but these boys these girls right here they're not for sale our young people they're not for sale come here matt he's my brother probably you don't know this is my brother i tell people all the time this is my brother like i've what coming to church for a year didn't know that as your family this is my brother matt and if matt ever gets into a situation and never gets into a problem or gets into a circumstance this is talking for all you young people and he can't hold this sign up himself sister ronnie what am i going to do i can't just be as the youth pastor as the leader even as his brother stand back be like well he sold us up after the devil he gave in to the devil he ate what the devil is offering him he took the money the devil gave them no i can't be like that what i got to do when i see the enemy trying to creep into your life young people and try to get into your ear and trying to get into your music can you put that music in your ear and say right there man someone get back to the music because i tell them the young people say don't listen to the world of music and can am i going to say world of music will send you to hell no i really don't have no biblical stance on that i'm not going to tell you that but i will say worldly music what the worldly atmosphere will cause you to be worldly that's all there is to it if you're going to talk about if you're going to listen to cheating and lying and cussing and cheating and lying and cussing and cheating and lying and cussing when you get old you'll end up cheating lying and cussing that's why i'm saying don't put that mess in your ears you put jesus christ him highlighted up blessing his name glorifying his name so that when you're 30 40 50 and the day you take your life breath you can say i love jesus i bless his name i glorify his name i worship his name because that's what's been in your spirit that's what's been in your ear that's what's in your soul there it is there's the world of music we're moving on but the young people if matt were to give in to peer pressure or want to give in over to the thoughts of the enemy i could stand back sister ronnie hold on to my inheritance hold on to everything god gave me hold on to my author hold on to my pulpit hold on to my music well we tried all we could with the young people we taught them we prayed we did all this we did all that but now they've got the enemy creeping to their ear we need some people with the backbone that's going to say i'm not letting that boy go to hell i know he can't find his not for sale sign he's he's delusional he's not thinking correctly he can't find where it used to be i've got to run to the rescue and hold that sign up and say devil he's not for sale i said he's not for sale i feel the annoying right there i said he's not for sale there'll be a day you can go down there'll be a day and there'll be a time sister ronnie that there'll be another young lady sitting in that seat we're not looking forward to that day i'm not looking forward today pastor about could lost his life two weeks ago never do we want to see that day come but there'll be a young man sitting in that seat one day there'll be another young man sitting in that seat judah i hope it's you buddy i hope it's you jada i hope it's you aiden if you're watching this morning someone go show it to him i hope it's you little landon i hope it's you i hope it's you one day maybe you i can't play music i can't play keyboard well maybe one day i hope it's you send it behind that keyboard why because somebody in this house mr ronnie said i'm not selling it i'm not selling it i'm not selling it it's not for sale i've got to pass it down judah you've got to have it jada you've got to have it like it in london it's got to be yours and the bible talks about this vineyard it's not just talking about a land and the scripture is talking about a land but the type of shadow for you and i is not talking about the soil it's not talking about the grass or the vineyard that's growing with the grapes on it it's talking about this church i said it's talking about this body it's talking about his word he's talking about you teenagers it's talking about those who are believers that's been to calvary who's prayed in the altar it's talking about everything that we are as believers and it's simply not for sale you know the bible said in in the book of exodus when the children of israel were departing from exodus and going to make their way to the promised land brother tyler pharaoh said you know what after all the plagues have come and encamped around these the wicked ones because god was trying to deliver his people out pharaoh says you know what finally take your people and go get out of here i don't want no more plagues i don't want anything else to come but he says leave the children and leave the women because we need some workers to help finish building all the things these things we're building leave the children that leave the women but this morning there's no child left behind i said there's no child left behind i don't care if it's the pastor's son the praise of worship leader son or just you who slipped in this morning for the very first time if you got a child there's no child left behind in this thing people we're not leaving you children in egypt i'm not leaving you women in egypt i'm not leaving you teenagers in egypt you're going to the promised land with us you're not going to hell but you're going to make it to heaven with us why because i won't sell you i won't let you go [Applause] one more thing our senior citizens are not for sale i know i've been to several churches i've been come here sister brenda i picked my sister ronnie come here honey i won't make you walk up here i'll make you come down here i don't know how old you are face the crowd everything see 77 say jesus at 76. i'm as much interested in our senior citizens not to point you out or call you old but i'm more i'm as much interested in the older generation as i am the younger generation because there's churches all around the world that cater to the young generation and i'm thankful for that but they cooked they kicked out oprah and granny just to then get in the pizza night with these young people they threw the old-time red red book red hymnal in the flames so they could sing whatever worldly song because i've hear i've watched it i've seen on facebook i'm singing worldly music in the house of god and they're not catering to granny anymore they're not singing i'll fly away for grandma anymore they're not singing the old songs that that up that stirs their soul up brother jeremiah you go sit down sister we go with brother jeremiah and he'll begin to sing we sing new songs you say we sing him here every sunday morning sunday night he'll sing new songs and sing old songs but he send him old songs sometimes sister ronnie he'll stop the music begin to sing acapella and little old grandma on the front row in the corner here who's been forgot about because they never sing i'll fly away anymore they'll never sing when the roles call up yonder and i'm not saying we got to sing all those songs and that's it i'm saying it's good to have a mixture but i don't want to forget granny either and he'll begin to sing those songs and power god begin to move just on that one person in the surface tears begin to weep why because we're simply saying this that little lady there sister brenda our senior citizens they're not for sale if i gotta wheel them into heaven sister brenda i'm gonna wheel them on into heaven if i gotta take you and drag your oxygen tank into this building so that you can praise the magnify the name of the lord i'm going to do it because you're i'm not letting you go i'm not giving you over to the enemy it's not for sale as we stand this morning i know we've preached this before and you've heard this before but i hope there's something that was said this morning that would turn over something inside you there's somebody here that's not here this morning there's a woman a man a young boy a young girl that's not here maybe they're in the hospital maybe they're sick maybe they're at another church maybe they're just simply not here because they didn't want to be here it's up for you and i to hold this sign up you know i go to that story a lot of times about the man with sick with the palsy and how that his friends four men took him down to where jesus was and jesus was in this house and the crowd was encamped around about him they couldn't get in he was too full they could have went their sister ronnie and said well we tried our best take you back home but they crawled up on the top of that roof began to rip off all the things that made that house a roof and they lowered that man down to jesus what was that that was somebody saying one of those four saying man with palsy our buddy our friend one we love we've been with you for years we could give up we can give in and give over and say well you're just sick this way it's gonna be but the moment that they open that sign up open that that top up of that house and start lowering him down if there could have been a paper stapled on the bottom of his bed it would have been this paper here it says i'm not giving up on him i'm not giving up on what god i'm not giving up on his healing i'm not giving up on his deliverance it's not for sale there's somebody here maybe they're maybe they're encamped in their mind with things of this world and the things that's going on in their life the peer pressures of this world they can't find their side they know they got it somewhere they know dave down deep down inside there's inheritance in there somewhere they know they know they've heard people praying they've once prayed they've once spoken tongues but they can't find it there's got to be somebody that will run to their rescue and lower them down to jesus and simply say you're not for sale i'm not giving you over i'm not giving you in that's my whole mission as the youth pastor of this church for the young people is i hold this sign up for them every morning i'm just speaking now but every morning i hold the sign up spiritually i'm not letting them die and go to hell i'm not giving them dover to the devil i know there's a hunger out there that will feed that longing and now but i've got to i've got to let my inheritance i've got to let what i have i've got to let what this word has and this pulpit's got that music's got to feed that hunger that they need that they want that they desire and as long as me and sister taylor have anything to do with the leadership of these young people it will be they will never be on the marketplace they will never be allowed to be even looked at by the enemy they are simply not for sale if you're to come to the art sale of this of my life and i have any type of envy and stripe inside of me i want to get rid of it it's on the table take it get rid of it but all these babies here all these boys and girls all you senior citizens this body is a believer our music our word our pulpit our preachers i'm standing up as firm believers saying it's not for sale you can go on somewhere you can exit the building because you're not about to take them it's not for sale and this morning as we come open the altars i hope in your heart that you will take this and say i know god's given me something i know he's given me an inheritance i know he's given me a blessing and it's easy to get rid of it because everything else around you is is not it you're just sitting you're in the middle of the darkness and it's probably easier to give over to the darkness but you hold on you endure till the end with that inheritance and see the blessing that will unfold in your life because of it let's all find a place this morning to pray and examine our heart and if you're lost in this house this morning need to be saved meet me at this altar this
