5 someone 26 verse time they that sow in tears shall reap in joy you know I like the Word of God it don't say they might it don't say they can it don't save all the planets lined up just right that's what it says it says if you throw in tears you will you shall reap in joy you know that where joy means it means to scream and shout in excitement and exaltation either go forth and weepeth bearing precious seed shall doubtless so they say doubtless now some of y'all's living in a place between the planting and the plucking and but you need to understand you're not just living in a in a time of the law you're living at a time called doubtless you need to remember that he to go forth and weepeth bearing precious seed shall doubtless shall doubtless come again with rejoicing bringing his sheaves with him alright now turn to the book of Acts chapter number 16 Acts chapter number 16 I'm going to begin reading with verse number 22 acts 16 I'm going to begin reading the verse 22 and the multitude rose up together against them somebody say the multitude rose up you know what really don't matter how many problems rise up against you a missionary rose up together against them and the magistrates ran off their clothes and commanded to beat them and when they had laid many stripes upon them they cast them into prison charging the jailer to keep them safely having received such a charge thrust them into the inner prison made their feet fast in the stocks and at midnight somebody at midnight that was dark not not many things good but at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and sang praises unto God and the prisoners heard them suddenly there was a great earthquake so that the foundations of the prison were shaken and immediately all the doors were opened in everyone's bands were loosed the keeper the prison awakened out of his sleep and seeing the prison doors open he drew out his sword and would have killed himself supposing that the prisoners had been fled the Paul cries were that our voice saying do thyself no harm but we are all here then he called her light and spring in and King trembling fell down the bull Paul and Silas and brought them out said sirs what must I do to be saved I wonder what happened some of y'all's lives if in the next 12 months God caused the things and the people that have tried to bind you and imprison you to come trembling and fall down in front of you and say tell me what I have to do to be safe I'm telling you right now there are people that have walked away from some of y'all's churches and left the knife buried in your heart then the next 12 months are going to come trim land fall at your feet and say would you please help me to be saved if you don't think God can't work stuff like that look in this book I said look in this book fell down and asked him what must I do to be saved they said believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved and thy house they speak unto Him the word of the Lord and to all that were in his house took them that see how the night washed their stripes baptized them and he got it done right now I want to talk to you today now I'm probably going to be teaching probably now I might get a little excited but you know anyway I'm gonna be teaching I want to talk to you today on the subject dog sewing through the tears and singing in the dark sewing through the tears and singing in the dark put your Bibles down let's raise our hands a mascot that touches with his word today God I need you today I need you today I need you today God I need you today come on somebody help me pray right now come on somebody help me pray right now hallelujah hallelujah come on home missionary help me pray right now [Music] hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah thank you Jesus thank you Jesus [Music] shake somebody's hand before you sit down tell them it's going to happen where I am in Jesus name hallelujah to God hallelujah to God thank you Jesus thank you Jesus thank you Jesus sewing through the tears and singing in the dark you know we live in some some absolutely amazing times there's so much stuff that's going on and and you know this seems like there's so many things that we at one time or another in our lives thought that there God you know this will never change and this will always be like this and this will never be altered we're living in a time and in a day where everything that can be shaken is being shaken not will be not can be everything that can be shaken is being shaken today but I'm telling you that God has still got people that have made up their minds it really don't matter what comes up it really don't matter what I think so I've made up my mind I'm not changing the direction that I've made up in my mind that I'm going to find him and I want him and I'm gonna pursue him and I'm gonna catch her my time and the presence of God and I want to walk with Jesus we live in a time in which many many people have said there are things that used to be important that they're just not important anymore but I'm telling you friend there's some things I'm not planning on letting go up I said I'm not planning on letting go of some things and there's some voices have been whispered and some of y'all's here saying if you just let go of that or you just walk away from that you could have this I'm going to tell you something friend I'm going to stay with what God put in this book I said I'm going to stay with what God put in this book now you and I have probably everyone in the building heard the scripture in Psalm 126 and I'm sure we've all heard it you put Psalm 126 and five back up there the Bible says they that sow in tears shall reap in joy now I begin to do a little word study on this verse and you know what I found I found that the word tears has nothing to do with seeds I always preach that you know you need to cry enough tears that you know it'll they'll spring up the Bible go the original don't say that he's talking about seeds not materials so I got to look into that and I got thinking about the Bible says they that sow in tears well how am I going to sow tears I know the Bible of Revelation talks about tears in a bottle in and tears poured out on an alternative and I know that in Jewish culture that they've got this deal with a you know back in the olden days that crying uh tears literally to put them in a bottle and but that's not what the book is talking about because it don't mention tears as seeds so I thought well what does this mean so I got to looking at it you know what I'll tell you what I think it means I believe that from what I've studied and looked at what it's talking about is not taking tears and going out there and standing over a piece of ground and crying enough that your tears cause seeds to come up because tears if they were seeds you're only going to bring more tears I'm not negating the fact that we need to do some weeping and crying the Bible says let the priests to the ministers week between the porch and the altar and that's great but I'm telling your friend I don't believe that's what this is talking about but you know what it is talking about it's talking about worth some of y'all been living in the last 12 months did I'm telling you this some of you scratching tears in the last 12 months they some of you've been through some stuff in the last 12 months some of you thought dear God in heaven I've never lived through twelve months like I've lived through right now now I'm not everybody I mean somebody came in here and we had to pull you down to get you underneath the door face facing you know where you getting the building and I understand all that but I'm telling about everybody got their hear that way some of you had to drag you out of seats to get you out of the car to get you here well I'm going to tell you something friend my Bible says that if you in a time of weeping we'll just keep sowing seed I don't care if they're tears rolling down your face I don't care if they're people walking away from your church I don't care that Bible studies you put 50 weeks in and they turn around and walk off don't let that chart in the closet don't put your table right through the tears hello Savannah clap your hands come on now I will says that those people that's what they means that means those people that sow in tears shall reap in joy so they'll say well what kind of what kind of thing am I supposed to so there's many things you're supposed to so when tears are running down your face or maybe you've wiped them off feel good so nobody can see them before you walk in front of them or get to the pulpit you're putting on your Sunday night faith even though it's only Wednesday night and you're doing the best you can I'm going to tell you something when you step to that pulpit and you bigger into that Bible study and you begin to say I'm telling you folks God is sending a revival not tomorrow but right now I'm telling you enjoy so if you sew right on through the tears you know I listen I listen to brother Mitchell last night he he talked about it I went there on my head 12 people or king of elam wolf you know I'm thinking that's great ain't so now her 1500 like man that's great but I'm gonna tell you something he left out a whole lotta living between point a and point B he didn't tell you that all in days between point a and point B and sometimes you walk in here and hear something like that yourself how do I get from here to there and you're looking at the path line you're thinking did god that looks like the Grand Canyon across a little pathway how do I get a cross over to the other side you know what I'm okay so I don't care whether it was a man that preached last night or you and your whole mission setting I'll tell you how you get there when the tears are rolling down your face just keep sowing see you got to stop once in a while and get out a handkerchief and wipe on the way let me get that thank you bang your pocket and throw a little more see I don't care who's done you wrong keep selling here keep selling seed in the middle of your tear they that sow in tears Xiao Xiao real enjoy now you know Oh Chester right here looks just right he went to America not God Naval Academy graduate man look everybody just got a Naval Academy great man I won't come to your church and they just failed him in front him just start talking in tongues and go and tie the knot well brother shall well I understand he headed a little rough but you know after he got it after he got it where he's financially able to not have to worry about that part I think everything else just kind of falls into place the eye falls all right don't always fall into place but Jimmy tell you something I stood beside that man and listened to him when his building was in rubble and ruins and you know what yeah he had some downtime to get time Tina won't talk to anybody he had times he said here guts show me to the cave I want to lock the door behind me and stay there but you know what I remembered also after a little while I'm hearing begin to talk about God's got something else God still told me the truth you know what I'm gonna keep right back here verse 6 or 6 come on let's go back to 1 2016 he's it going forth and weepeth either go forth and weepeth bearing precious seed here it actually differentiates between the crime and the seeds all right so tears are not seeds the seed is what you carry that precious thing that it sees but you don't want if you're still willing to go forth even when you're crying hey you know what I'm gonna tell you something introvert I be not I'm extrovert but you know what I'm gonna tell you one thing in the last 12 months day sometimes I want to turn off the phone I didn't want to talk to anybody and they simpleton won't talk to me now but anyhow you know what I'm gonna tell you something friend I made up my mind I am NOT gonna stop going forth [Applause] you hear me home missionary I'm telling you the temptations going to be great and the baby's going to be strong for you to just get in there and lock the door and just kind of say well I'll hold up with my little bit of little thing that God gave me here and I'll try to keep the baby up you face bullying I'm gonna tell you something you're on a road to destruction but if you'll make up your mind whether you got 3 or 103 just say you know what the longest day that we deliver we're gonna be going for we're gonna balance we're gonna be small or even cry we're gonna keep sowing seed so here's what I want you to do is on this man this is your homework for the next 12 months the next time that hail hits you with a broadside that you think is going to sink your boat when he torpedoes you or does when the roadside bombs on yuning see it come and friend of mine you're reliving your rocking in here you're falling I challenge you why don't you say you know what devil I'm gonna tell you what my response to that is if there ain't a contact in my city I'm fixing to go knocking doors it probably it might not work in a lot of places but you here might not work here but I got a feeling if I'll do that through the middle of my tears God's gonna make something happen I'm talking to home missionary that his brand if you sound he's going to keep going for out there I want to keep throwing seed telling you that God is gonna let me read this joy so you know if we'll get that concept no matter how we feel we'll just keep sewing through the tears you know what job you know what job was saying when they came and brought him all of that bad news in one day you know I just wish to God that God would put a filter on bad news for the devil could only bring me so much at one time but forget it I think um do you know why because God doesn't meant bragging on me Hall they test cuz he's done told the devil you jump you came to y'all give you the best shot you got you can pack up a year's worth of trouble and dumping on them in one day but I'm telling you when the day's finish they don't get it the next morning they're gonna keep going out that door I don't care if there's tears rolling down their face up I don't care that body in the field and walks off they're gonna walk out of that room oh it can heal marriages you say the devil has a way of bring him bunching it up he can save it up and he'll get it all lumped up he gave him a good big wad of it and then he'll bring and dump it on you on your head one day man I can stand it if it you know I get some bad news today Jonathan and then a week now you live on bad news they don't happen that way it all happens in one a car and mark this down as it was in Joel's day there's always going to be one person that survives to tell you the bad news I thought sometimes it'd be better fit to blow them up to that coat not be torn they might be dragging one leg but honey listen they're gonna be the bearer of good tidings to you honey I would that God I wonder what it'd happen if right there rat in the middle of their tears and yours you just throw down and say you know what I think I'm gonna take a break what am I supposed to do why don't you do it like this get your eyes over your situation and start sitting like this when I think of his goodness when I think of his goodness when I think of his goodness and what he's done for me when I think of his goodness and Ali set me free I want a dance dance dance dance all night [Applause] now what Joel was doing when he said when that when they brought all that bad news in the Bible says he fell down here in his now he fell down on the ground he was crying oh dear God would you cry he wasn't Superman and he didn't have the Holy Ghost and we don't even have record he had a Bible of any kind he could hear the Rhema men is the word can come he never had faith and the Bible says he ran his mouth he fell down on the ground and worshiped and said you got to do more just worship you gotta say something and said I came in here naked probably the same way but I want you to know one thing the Lord gave it and the Lord took it away but I'm not gonna stop praising him I'm gonna keep sowing seeds of worship I'm gonna keep sowing seed to worship come on you know what I'm gonna be honest with you I'm but Terry long call me this year he wasn't exactly shout and dancin happy and hanging from the chandeliers when your church this rented burns and everything and it burns and you really don't have it all covered guess what that's not exactly the time in our brain that we think it's time to shout but if we could ever begin to see what God sees if we really are his kids that's what the devil's tried to get in some of y'all's heads you're really not his kids how many times did Jesus say if ye evil know how to give good gifts to your children he's trying to say look at the relationship between a father and a child than you are he fell down and worship you look all the way through the book of Job and he never quit so indeed though the skin worms destroy this flesh yet in my flesh shall I see God and I want to see him for myself and not another he said looked in front behind both sides and I don't worry dot but he knows the way that I think he and when I'm trying I'm gonna come out of here better than I was when I went in you know what he was doing he was so on faith right through the middle of his tears honey listen next time he'll hit you and everything goes south why don't you quit talking about that you know what is presented enough evidence by itself why don't you quit presenting it to and why don't you start giving something on behalf of God I am ok son honey since Christmas day of o3 I didn't have a you're talking about a circus well god I've been through Cirque you know what when I turn this telephone on right here you know what it does for it ever ever pulls up the addresses ever pulls up picture my wife or anything else you know what it says it'll sail then this stops let me look at the law it says God is right you say what's that for that means every time I turn this thing on before I can communicate with one person I want to know one thing and get it in my head he's right I said he's right I don't care whether you understand or your circumstances are right or not he's right he's right whether you can see it today whether you sit them off whether you ever see it I'm telling you right I bet he's right yeah right yeah right number keeps on see right through the my peers so I mean understand we got to keep sewing through our tears Ibaka back up 3 and 17 put that up there somebody say I've got to keep sewing through my tears somebody say I've got to keep saying the right thing even though I'm crying honey I'm telling you if you can begin to do that if you can begin to do this verse 17 look at this somebody read for me come on y'all ready come on somebody say yes family situation and there's always another listen to me Oh missionary I promise you before God I am NOT trying to preach something to hype you I promise you before God I'm trying to get what he buried in my guts into your cuts and into your brain before you go back to Hell's Kitchen because honey if you'll walk out of here and back into there with that kind of an attitude I'm going to tell you something friend come on leave it up at your second header come on don't take my purse way is if you walk back into your city with that kind of an attitude I can't control everything hell does but I can't control what I do I can't control everything Hill says but I can't control what I say I can't determine every bit of evidence hell's willing to give but I can't determine the evidence path with him to give look at the next verse look at the next question don't read it call somebody that's enough now listen you know what what proof what proof did that prophet had that that was going to happen nothing but knowing God nothing but his relationship with God and what God had said he didn't have a New Testament and Old Testament to pull from he didn't have a pile load of preachers around him to encourage him he didn't have an apostolic conference in Madison to go to but he said I'm gonna tell you something I know God and that's the kind of stuff he does and this is what he's gonna do for me I'll try to test somebody if you keep sowing faith through the middle of your tears I don't care how many's rolling down your face up honey the Bible says you will come again rejoice in and you're gonna bring some sheaves with you well let's raise our hands have love Jesus right huh hello somebody's loving somebody loving somebody love him [Music] [Applause] cut off somebody's love him right now somebody love him right now all right god my god now now that was the first portion of Scripture we read now turn over to Acts chapter number 16 header put acts 16 let's look at verse 22 start there acts 1622 multitude grows up together against them magistrates are foreclosed commanded to beat them they laid many I'm going to say many stripes lay them on cast them into prison charges get or keep them safely verse 24 they have received such a charge thrust them into the inner prison so they say the inner prison now and Oklahoma what that means does some of you home missionaries you feel like it means a name of your town inner prison and that they didn't just put them in it you know what enough to equipment dungeon they put their feet in stocks in other words they were the headbands across their legs where they could not I will take some Paulette Silas warmish out they couldn't show and some of y'all feel the same way so then I'm bound I'm not just I'm not just in the prison I'm bad there's no way I could show I guess you need to get that song playing in your house take these shackles off my feet where I can dance or somehow some of y'all need to get the devil into film goes down with 9-1-1 its own so here's for that they are in a prison inner prison the dungeon their feet are fast in the bonds and the stocks stocks him on next verse I am at midnight now I do the middle of work study here you know PC study Bibles a an amazing tool sometimes I did me a little little study here on this and you know what that word midnight means comes from two words and one means the middle of another one means a very dark place I've seen a few hits going you're in the middle of a very dark place so you know what maybe this gun it got put that in there to let you know what to do in the middle of a very dark place we supposed to suck your thumb find somebody to have pity party with you well you can and I'm promising you there's a whole lot of folks will join you I almost anybody will join you in a pity party just you got to be careful about how to find somebody to share a good news with all brother L we for you you tell how bad is Oh God but tell them ten got the Holy Ghost Sunday night we ain't gonna turn right Acharya I want you listening we're coming to a place that wants some of you home missionaries are going to look at the narrow comes string and streaming in the back door and God's gonna see are you willing to believe it are you willing to believe it I'll put them right there if you're willing to believe it do you really think you're the only one in your city that's home we forgot do you really think you're the only one in your city this ride out to God whether you've got big to connect the dot let's me some of you and some of them but you've got to believe it here we go at midnight Paul and Silas prayed everybody say they prayed so I clicked that up to the right and on prayed you know what it means it means to pray that's what it means it means to bring leads to press I pray now at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and sing praises in other words sang praises comes from one Greek word okay and the Strongs Heather put that up there that part that just about that one word there about saying praises come here in the Strong's it comes from the word 5214 and it is whom kneel to him to sing a religious ode to celebrate God in song just sing a hymn that's what means I'm strong you got PC said about pull it up and strong is what it said that's what it says I know type it on now what's this to sing a hymn or to celebrate God song do you know what think it and out of their mind I don't know how many y'all were raised at Pentecost but I will say I was raised around Pentecost only God knows hem into most songs I got stored away in my brain hey you know what I like every new course that they come up with out that's great wonderful hallelujah praise the Lord and some of them are really really awesome really some of them are born from sheer unadulterated talent the people wouldn't know God if you hit them well you know what I'm saying so yeah but anyhow I'm telling you some of those songs are so deeply embedded in my brain I'm here at tune of four or five seven eight notes of that pinyin all said the words will come so Paul and Silas are in a dark place and ER in the middle of it and right in the middle of that they start praying and I don't know which one of them did it but what I'm look don't tell us it hey you remember page 184 in the rich Pentecostal praises and those sad let's look back at him Dora said you know what I believe I remember that so why don't we get bus down and sing us a song out of the hymnal he said well what good was singing in the dark did let us see what it did okay now fares she's got her affairs their fares says it is to sing hymns or the singing of Paschal hymns which the Jews call the great hello they weren't just singing any song it gives the time letting they literally started singing the great Hallel the or the great Hillel is used it was the hymn that they sang out of the salsa words songs main songs to the Jews that's what that's what their songbook is you still got the juice songbook it sits right there in the middle of the Bible back in there an Old Testament and so here's what it consisted of that particular one that they'd sing at the Passover celebration that's when they sang it and here's what it consisted of it consisted of Psalm 113 through 118 and also chapter 136 so that was how many verses it had in it 113 through 118 and then 136 now do you know that when I got to looking at that 5214 up there at the top from which the word same phrase has come from you know what it comes from that word comes from another word and it showed you this word comes from this word even it comes from 5215 which means a song in pi phrase to dump I don't know which one of them it was the one on window villain said I paid my ties today it's in your PC by one maybe I'll tell you a cinema what I'm look them and said you know I don't believe I paid my pad today and Silas looked back at him and said what you told man I'm getting Sunday he said listen here listen here buddy you got to do more put some in there all prepared to pay past oh my god hey you McKay so they nothing worse it stinks any worse than a preacher that refuses to pay tithe I looked at one another day brother right and I looked you right now and I said you know what ball if you ever don't get to the place you're passing the church you don't be a poor man till you came in get your black eyes page name a preacher yet so you know what you know what [Applause] [Applause] how many you people when you set out at dinner your weight well your checkbook getting rid of right the time and check out have any of you look back over your we can say I don't know he's done enough for me this week to pay tight or not it never comes up in your mind you automatically do but there are times when you're staying on the pulpit of the platform in your church or walking through your job you've got to work as your church in yet self-supporting and you know what you look back to you I have to praise him for it don't matter what he did this week it's

stirring language next verse Judah was his sanctuary Israel his demand you know what sanctuary is the place of praise Dominion has to do with his personal control over my life don't tell me he's your God unless he's got worship and Dominion in your life don't say just because I raised my hands he's no no no no he wants he wants her sanctuary and he wants Dominion you'll get him no suits at

you all right seesaw it flat Jordan was given back next verse the mountains skip like Rams and the little Hills like Elaine's just by people praising and saying you're my lord now than anything you tell me now that worked no Testament it'll work today God changes you know our next verse what lb oversee the south lettuce yeah you know what they you know what that looks like to me it was like in that song that song that is a song part of the great Hillel verse - it looks like that whoever made that thing up was making fun of nature she said what's your problem see what are your others wrong now George what are you getting so scared about jumping back next verse what's wrong you mountains if you're jumping around my friends a little hill to jump around my what's wrong with you hey they're just in diverse - now family member an axe will have number one number two number three okay look at the next verse [Applause] you don't get it you don't you know [Applause] that's what they were singing when they got to the point now telling you chronologically I didn't get this off my book my kids have something nobody told me about I didn't make one fatal mistake Brian cans McKenzie called me the other day he said no come on beau give me some and I told him that this so if you hear just asking what you get different and he told us we gonna bring he said Jeff Arnold so here was the Austin where they got I got it from Jesus so when they say it they singing God interrupted the middle of verse two with an earthquake come okay okay okay okay we gotta go we go alright let's drop him down to let's see one two three let's drop on down to verse two the fourth the fourth them bursts of this song and then Psalm 116 and verse number 12 so I'm 1/16 I'm sorry verse number 14 verse number 14 Psalm 116 verse 14 later they get down to this and they said I will can you hear them down there no music and then look if them guys were singers if I wouldn't call them preachers because most preachers are not real good singer so if you heard of saying you too told them don't quit your day job they don't have any music they're not on beat all I got several stops the boss down there but honey when they get down there to that person that at verse says I'm here I will pay my vows you almost a long time I'm to the Lord now in the presence of all this people next verse they just saw the same precious in the eyes of the Lord rest on the side of the Lord is the death of his Saints look at the next verse [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] everyone everyone you need to go home and did get out of the word for yourself and Bridget you need to kill it a person and homeless in church and you better wipe them tears off and keep so and see you I don't care out dark it is I don't care in the middle of it enough keep singing out of him don't matter how bad you feel now you believe what you want I believe that when they got to 1/16 and verse 16 and said thou has loosed my bonds I believe that's when an accent 16:25 the Bible says and every man's pants are loose [Applause] yeah okay what happened first in the book about earthquake second I'm showing you chronologically in order what's the third thing that happened I want to fix in there I want to simply let's go to the last verse of the song Psalm chapter 118 and verse 13 let's go to verse 12 Oh Lord it gets better as you go out let's go to verse 10 118 and 10 I'm going backwards if for 118 and 10 all nations can pass me about but in the name of the Lord when I destroyed that's the kind of song you sing when you're in the dungeon in the dark your backs believe me you're in bonds can I tell you something you won't stay there very long if you will if you'll sing something like that I'm telling you you will not stay there very long if God lets you stay there it's only for a short season of time and he can't let you stay there after he did for them what he did when they sang about what he was able to do alright next verse they can pass me by a they can pass it out but in the name of the Lord will I destroy them next verse they can pass me out like these is everybody am I the only one that's ever felt like you had a swarm of bees going around your brain and it's as simple as tell me about the devil attack me well great he brought the whole team when he came back well tell me what the devil did honey they tell me that kind of swarm tell me they don't come on the time dokey they get the whole family to come on visit me but you know what I don't care if they can pass me like these they are quenched as the fires of thorns for in the name of the lord I will destroy them you notice the psalmist didn't say you will destroy he said I will destroy what because greater is He that is within me that is whatever will get your mind off an old dog when you do it he said I gave you the power to do it alright next verse thou has thrust sore at me that I might fall but the Lord help me has anybody been there next verse is it enough hey is it in there yeah the Lord is my strength oh you know what some of y'all wanting to become your salvation first don't expect him to become your salvation until you let it be your strength don't expect him to become your salvation until you're willing to let him become your strength and you're willing to sing about even if it's in the dark but I promise you in the presence of God if you're willing to let me become your strength here and your song when you get back home well no well I I agree with you on that third thing but there's only one problem the Bible said there was more than one person that got salvation you got to show me one one person because he his old house up in there getting back I'm glad you mentioned next verse the voice of rejoicing in what he says you know what when Paul and Silas got to that point they said I won't sing about salvation more than once just a more one person around it needs of the salvation look at verse 21 look at verse 21 I will praise me for that has hired me that's the problem some of y'all don't believe he's hearing you and the reason you don't believe he's hearing you because all you're doing is looking what that was presented in the court of law of evidence what's wrong with this evidence what's wrong with this evidence when Harris said it last word when the devil's been down forever that bottomless pit you know what this is still gonna be standing oh yeah all right y'all did not everybody get that I'm gonna tell you something bad that absolutely it put a shouting in my feet I came up to you you know where God gave it to me went on the Mount of Transfiguration I was in the dark and I was crying can I stop and tell somebody right now my Bible says he giveth songs in the night can I stop and tell somebody I don't care what kind of night time you're going through the song he's going to give you the song is worth the night I don't care how long it is I don't care how dark it is I'm telling you the song you carry out at night time the song is worth the night I wish somebody to fake their what I thought do whatever you got to do but the song is period out of here it's like the darkness so here's what I did though right I I run my mouth so wearing on that II on my PC Englishman's concordance and you punch on that that will show you every place in the New Testament that that particular word used so I thought you know I need two or three witnesses to establish anything okay so I thought I wonder if anywhere else in the Bible that Greek word Grumio is used so restore and I clicked it put Matthew chapter 26 and verse 30 Matthew chapter 26 and verse 9 see that word dirt says him same greek word and when they had sun and him they went out into the Mount of Olives now put Matthew 27 and 50 up there but Matthew told us see let's see if it happened like like it did over in acts 16 Matthew 27:51 he had cried again with a loud voice yielded up the ghost next verse and behold the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom and what happened what happened what happened the same thing gonna happen in your city when you walk back in this day I'm gonna keep going through the pier and sink it in the dark [Applause] brother right was Jesus crying that night was it in the dark and when he got through singing to him get an earthquake happened look at this and the earth did quake and the rocks rent next verse please what kind of bondage could you have greater than the grain what kind of Bobby did you have greater than the brain but when Jesus said I will to see what great hello telling you the Word of God they get to open graves people that have been for battle begin to walk it's in every room and many bodies of the saints which slept arose next verse came out of the gradients after his resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared underneath how many member the first thing that happened in Acts second thing that happened third thing that happened what happened at Calvary day what happened when that blood and water came out of his side that's a reason this morning when you open your eyes you able to say Jesus forgive me because in the dark through the tears he said I'm going to keep singing I'm gonna keep singing and I'm gonna keep believing how about a key so let's see [Applause] Revelation chapter 12 verse number 11 all chase' Revelation chapter 12 verse number 11 now how many to back up to verse 9 it says we need to get the whole picture verse 9 the Great Dragon was cast out that old serpent called the devil and Satan which deceiveth the whole world he was cast in the earth his angels were cast out Lily next verse and her loud voice saying in heaven now is come salvation and strength the kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ for the accuser of our brethren is cast down which accused them before our God day and night next verse how are you going overcome the devil by what by the blood of the Lamb now I'm gonna tell you I'm thankful for the blood you think about how much blood was shed for the right from the beginning of sacrificing all the way through to Calvary and you think about what the blood of Christ does it'll take a jeffrey dahmer friend if he's willing to say I'm sorry and literally God look at him and not even remember what he did it had take a Charles Manson if he staggered in the back door from a prison break and came to this altar and said God forgive me and I'm telling you you couldn't even bring up paper named tape and it registered in the mind of God connected with him that's what the blood of today but as powerful as the blood is it's only half the victory I don't care how much blood you've got if you're not willing to get your testimony working the blood is going to do nothing but cleanse you and you alone and you'll never overcome a devil of your city and if you believe there's a prince in every city okay now what's this and they overcame him overcame Sam I overcame say okay you know what that word right there means put that up there that that word in ika oh what's that called McHale look at this overcame means McHale and it means to subdue that's what that word overcame me so subdued conquer overcome prevail get the victory faier says that it means when one is arraigned or goes to the law to win the case you want to win the case this is the judge of all the earth there's going to sit on the great white throne judgment Abraham's sure it said sure the judge of all the earth will do right he's the judge we're in his courtroom okay but the only problem is we got somebody else offering evidence besides us everybody say we're in a courtroom okay now here's how you overcome the word thirty five twenty mchao or whatever it is it comes from that word if I recognize that we're going to ni ke that's where that word comes from and it's in your it's in your PC Bible it's a Greek word and it means conquest the means of success or victory something you need to get a little Nike working in your life maybe that's God saying some of y'all need to get off them find rescues get some tennis shoes only get their going forth and get the movie all right now back to back to verse back to verse 11 on the deal organ region okay then we're paying by the blood of the Lamb somebody say the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony I say the word of their testimony all right put it up on there where that and you got where the word testimony is exposed on if I got that up there okay I didn't put that on it listen this you look it up when you get back to your room if you get it that word testimony right there you know what it means it means to give evidence as in a court of law god never has the obligation to move on your behalf if all you're doing is saying I plead the blood I plead the blood please be lovely and I believe in pleading the blood but somewhere you guys start giving some evidence somewhere you got to start giving some evidence you want Paul and Silas we're doing that flip in jail they start giving evidence that's homey good but you start giving evidence that's all he did I told you I'm telling you somebody somebody needs to start giving out hands now you me tell you this and y'all quit preaching now y'all quit preaching listen up remember the man last said last night you got to eat the whole thing hey remember remember I want everybody to get this everybody get this before God pours out judgment on any city he's the judge but before he sends that judgment what does he always send somebody that sends evidence they give the evidence Nineveh had a Jonah before God would ever poured out judgment he sent the evidence first to see what that do it before Sodom ever could have been destroyed God let a lot come to that city on the Bible City was righteous he had some issues but he was righteous and you believe what you will that the Empire of Rome had a man named Paul and before God ever rocked that great Empire down he let somebody bring in the council and before God brings down the stronghold in your city he ain't doing it baby until you're willing to get out of it so bruh yeah well how do I give evidence you know what Jesus had a John the Baptist that said he's coming he's coming and he's gonna baptize you with the Holy Ghost and fire I wonder if God is waiting on some of you to give evidence so he can give that dream every victory after victory every victory or bondage break in the Word of God was preceded by evidence Egypt Egypt had a Moses that was saying I am that I am said let my people go and when they were willing to present the evidence God said you know what if you're willing to present the evidence that's the word of your testimonial do you really think do you really believe that God is playing game for you when he gives you promises and prophesies about what he's going to do you think he's just playing games with you God don't do that you always trying to do that little feeling you got in there and you're thinking am I just crazy to think we can get twenty acres for deer am I just nuts and I just nuts to think there's actually only people that have blinders on they can't be distracted from the right an army marching shoulder to shoulder you know am I just crazy why would God show this man something like that or put something like that in the heart of that man I'll tell you why I get it he said I'm going to show him what I want to do and if they're willing to present that evidence into my courtroom I'll bring it to that and a rule in their favor was dealing that
