roberts a few years before he is a word a man of word a man of power a man of prophecy anything he tell you today you can definitely take it i'm also grateful i only call him uncle bishop amen glory to god he is he is one of bishop's closest brothers and we've known him at new zion temple hammond for many years so let us receive none other than bishop theon roberts from new hope church in gary indiana if if you love the lord would you stand on your feet and just tell him how much you love him lift your hands all over this sanctuary and just begin to release an adjective from your lips for god come on let's open your mouth and let's stir this room that is already stirred thank you for those who are working with my monitors come on stir this room just open your mouth and tell god thank you come on come on come on release something out of your mouth tonight father we love you we bless you we magnify you we glorify you we lift your holy name somebody in here tonight this morning i'm sorry needs a miracle somebody this morning needs god to touch them i need you to open your mouth and just begin to thank god that he's still a miracle working god come on come on open your mouth open your mouth father we love you we love you we glorify you and we come against every work of the devil we come against every work of the enemy this morning everything the devil will try to do to try to hinder our praise we come against it in the name of jesus god we thank you as you were talking i heard the lord say to you that there is money for your business that's looking for you that there is a grant there is a some money you've been trying to research for your business and the lord says between now and the end of this year that your money will have doubled in your business and your concern is workers to be able to fill the contracts but the lord said i'm going to give you more money than what you need so workers won't be your issue i don't know how the lord's going to do it but god said that he's going to double the money your business and if you're not a hater this morning i need you to praise god [Music] hear me listen to me now it's important that i don't just prophesy and not tell you why god is doing it god is doing it because of everything you make happen for your bishop the lord said that everything you do for him and for his wife god said i'm about to pay you back for all of the sacrifices that you have made and i need you to understand that this is why god is blessing your business so you can turn around and tell somebody else what god will do for you when you are faithful can i get some faithful folks in the house this morning come on we're gonna have church this morning we've been having it already i don't know what y'all fed this man this morning but the lord is in this holy temple and we give god praise help me shout loud for the best bishop the preaching is man one of god's greatest gift and the lord has him in the wind in this season and is carrying him all across the length and the breath of this country and we give god praise for it come on open your mouth and shout for bishop brandon jacobs and lady vivian jacobs come on open your mouth and give god praise and i told the man of god brother robert when we were in the office i told him the best thing you can do for a vessel that god is using across the country is let them come back to a strong church they need to know that when they're traveling and when they're gone they have people in place and i think you should commend yourselves for being such a strong people and a mature people we thank god for my lovely wife who is back up north in northern indiana we give god praise for her lady anita and to all of you my father's children my two sons that have traveled with me my spiritual son alan and my natural son sion junior to my nurse sister shirley who takes good care of me and to my administrator who also takes good care of me sister keisha i thank god for her we're going right into the word of the lord tonight we're going right this morning i keep saying i'm sorry this morning we're going right into you know i'm usually i'm a revivalist so we're going right into the word of the lord this morning it's first sunday and this is a sunday to give god praise for his blood and we thank god for it we're going to john chapter 2. john chapter 2 john chapter 2 it is so amazing to me to see all that god has done in your bishop's life i won't tell the story hammond knows the story but we've been friends for a long time seeing the lord do some amazing things neither one of us were married when we became friends he was 17 years old and i've just seen the lord do so many great things in his ministry and in his life and i'm excited for what god is doing for him and every time i cut on social media he's at somebody else's church and every time i look at a flyer he's on somebody's flyer and you need to pray for your pastor that god would give him strength it's important that there are people in his life that will help to buffer him it's important that we as a church don't slow him down because this is his season this is his season don't be in his ear telling him bishop we need you we need we need you no no no let him go cause this is his season he is still your pastor and he's he's still going to be your leader and your bishop but now the nation is calling for him and god has put a word in his belly for the nation amen i got a word to release tonight i'm gonna preach and um i'll we'll see where it goes from there this band is one of the best bands i mean come on let's give god praise for this band it's really only two places that i go that i'm not worried about taking a musician that's powerhouse and here i don't have to worry about a musician come on let's give god praise for this band y'all amazing you all are amazing john chapter two i'll read verse number one through verse number eleven and uh don't let it scare you because it's no reflection on how long i'll be preaching amen i i only have um one thing to ask permission is if you would allow me in the beginning to just do some teaching and then we'll get to the preaching all right if you'll allow me to do some teaching then we'll get to the preaching now you're allowed to be quiet while i'm teaching if you want to but when i get to the preaching then i need you to say something back to me hey man all right we're going to try to do make it do what to do and the third day there was a marriage in cana of galilee and the mother of jesus was there and both jesus was called and his disciples to the marriage and when they wanted wine the mother of jesus said unto him they have no wine jesus said unto her woman what have i to do with thee my hour is not yet come his mother said unto the servants whatsoever i want you to notice that jesus has just rejected her whatev i don't what what what does this have to do with me how is this my business my hour is not yet come notice his mother ignores his words and his mother says unto the servants whatever whatsoever saith he unto you do it and there were set six water pots of stone after the manner of the purifying of the jews containing two or three ferkins apiece jesus said unto them fill the water pots with water and they filled them up to the brim now i want you to also notice because it's going to help make preaching easier for me i want you to also notice they asked for water for wine i'm sorry and he had them to pour water they asked for wine but he had them to pour water all right verse 8 and he said unto them draw out now and bear unto the governor of the feasts and they buried and when the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine and knew not once it was but the servant which drew the water knew the governor of the feast called the bridegroom and said unto him every man that began beginning or sorry every man at the beginning does set forth good wine and when men have well drunk then that which is worse but thou has kept the good wine until now last verse and this is where our thought is coming from tonight this beginning of miracles did jesus in cana of galilee and manifested forth his glory and his disciples believed on him this beginning of miracles did jesus in cana of galilee this beginning of miracles did cana in galilee i want you to just bring your minds in as we talk about tonight the beginning of miracles the beginning of miracles on your way to your seat this morning just tell somebody this was the beginning of miracles i believe that there is a season of miracles coming for you i believe that there's a season of the miraculous coming into your life from the beginning god has been proving his commitment to his people to connect supernaturally with them genesis one and two you see where god set up shop on earth heaven was manifested on earth he took heaven and manifested it right there in the garden of eden in so much that the garden of eden to this day as you go and search the holy land and all over and they have found so many of these artifacts they have not physically found the location of where the garden of eden really is not because it never existed but they have not found it because the place was not what was of importance to god it was the experience that you were to have in the place the garden of eden was the place where heaven touched earth it was an experience with god where he walked with man the bible says in the cool of the garden in the cool of the day he walked with man had unbroken fellowship with man and chapter 1 and chapter 2 described the relationship in this place called eden we all know what happens in chapter number three chapter number three the fall of man happens and the dynamic changes god puts them out of his presence and he puts a premium on his presence now you will not have my presence with you always because of sin sin separates us from god i don't want to hang out too long there but sin even now still separates us from god and the bible says that when he puts them out of the garden watch this he puts an angel at the entrance of the garden a cherubim with a flaming sword of fire and he puts them out of the place where heaven touched earth and he begins to put a premium on his anointing he puts a premium on his presence he puts a premium on it now you cannot get to god like you could before adam and eve sinned and when heaven touched earth in that way it was a miraculous touch it was a a miracle place it was a place where there were the wondrous works of god were regular there but after he puts them out heaven touched earth in a way that was so awesome that now they had to go through somebody else in order to get to the presence of god you begin to see god now throughout the old testament doing things but we begin to call them miracles because there were no longer a extended unbroken fellowship now when god broke through the earth realm and did something miraculous it wasn't regular it was a miracle somebody say a miracle a mirror it changed the dynamic because now i had time with god whenever i wanted him but in the old testament there were miracles popping up because the average man couldn't just get to god you had to go through the priest and once a year the high priest would go in and he would have to have his stuff in order they would tie a rope around his waist that if he were not right he would fall dead in the presence of god and they couldn't even go in and get him they had to drag him out because god put a premium on his presence but every now and then he would show up and show everybody flex his muscles in a miraculous way and show them that i'm god look at somebody and say we still serve a miraculous god genesis chapter six i know we don't see it as a miracle but it was a wondrous work of god when the flood came because when the flood came it was literally the heavens opening up and covered the earth with water the bible says that the water was 15 cubits above the highest mountain y'all don't want to have church only a god can cover the earth with that much water that it is feet several feet above the highest mountain and the bible says that when the water subsided i wish i had time to preach it but i don't when the water subsided the bible says the ark landed on a mountain but it was only god that did that because he was showing himself and he was showing how miraculous he was i'm trying to help you understand that we still serve the god of miracles exodus chapter 14 this same god if i had a time i would preach to you about how he deals in water but it is the same god in exodus chapter 14 when he is trying to free his people they get to a place called the red sea they have mountains on both sides they have an enemy behind them he takes this water because he's a miracle working god and he parts the red sea he takes millions of gallons of h2o and he solidifies it long enough for them to get apart but that's not the most miraculous part because that much water sitting on that much dirt should have been mud but the bible says that he and dried it up and they went over on dry land because he is a miraculous god he put them out of the garden but still was working miracles for his people i need to pause parenthetically and ask you aren't you glad you served the kind of god that will cause you to be punished and blessed at the same time i'm glad that even though he had to put me out of some places he didn't leave me altogether maybe that's not for this room but there are some people that know that if it had not been for the hand of god on your life and numbers chapter number 12 this is the same god that strikes miriam with leprosy this is the same god that as miriam disrespects abraham abraham is disrespected by moses i'm sorry disrespects moses and god says hold on moses i got this and strikes miriam with leprosy and the bible says he is the same god that strikes her with leprosy that was a death sentence comes back when she repents and heals her of leprosy because he is a miraculous god somebody say he's a miracle working god this is the god in the book of daniel that turned a beast as hungry as a lion a beast as as vicious as a lion and they made sure that they waited until the lions got hungry this is the same god that when they threw daniel in a den full of hungry lions transformed the lion inside of the den from a vicious animal into a pillow and made the lion shut his mouth as long as his man was down there i need you to understand that god when it comes to his people does not mind working miracles can i see the hands of some people in here tonight that believe that god is a miracle working god this is the same god in the same book of daniel that comes in in daniel chapter number three when they threw the three hebrew boys in the fiery furnace and the bible declares that they are looking at these three hebrew boys and wondering why they are not dying oh i wish i had time tonight but i really don't have time i gotta really get to my text but can i tell you that the enemy even though he is wise still can't figure out why you're not dying with everything that he's throwing at you he's trying to figure out why you're not dead yet the bible says that they turned the fire up one time and it didn't kill them they turned it up two times three times four times five times until they get to seven times hotter than what it was before but what they did not understand was that seven is god's number lord and what was meant to kill god's men end up killing their enemies rewind press play i said what was meant to kill god's man ended up killing the enemies to god one more time rewind press play what was meant to kill you yeah it's going to end up destroying every devil that's trying to come after you and the bible says when nebuchadnezzar is looking at this he says wait a minute now did not we send three into the fire he says i see four but that's not the mind-blowing part the mind-blowing part he says is the fourth one looks like the son of god maybe it just went over your head but i wanted to know nebuchadnezzar how do you know what the son of god looks like even before the son of god gets here i'm talking to somebody in here tonight i need you to understand that you don't have to worry about enemies because god is such a miracle working god that he will identify himself to your enemies before you ever have to lift a finger look at somebody and tell them in this next season of my life i'm getting ready to endure some sweatless victories god is about to cause my enemies to destroy one another because he is a miracle working god somebody say he still works miracles come on y'all say it say he still works miracles he's still he still works miracles and so from genesis chapter number three we see here the plan is in place um in heaven in the heavenlies to for god's people to come back into unbroken fellowship from genesis chapter three we see this plan in place in the heavenly place for god's people to come back into unbroken fellowship with the miracle working god because in genesis 3 he puts them out of his presence but he's launching a plan to get them back into his presence he's launching a plan so that they can receive miracles again how is he going to do this he's going to do this by sending himself in the person of his son he makes an appearance and if i had time i don't but if i had time i would talk to you about how the son appeared all throughout the old testament i don't have time to talk to you about how he appeared and wrestled with jacob all night i don't have time to tell you how he appeared at the tent of abraham i don't have time to tell you how he appeared in the fiery i don't have time but i just need you to know that he was making appearances all throughout the old testament until finally his instant or his job or his his plan was that he was going to come and birth himself through a virgin he's going to birth himself through a virgin named mary this means something because it's relative to our text and so he comes down through 42 generations and begins the process of reconnecting men back to miracles we were no longer going to need a high priest we were no longer going to need someone to stand in the gap for us but now god says when you need a miracle i can get you a miracle to you and to your family mark begins to write about this jesus and he starts his account of the life of jesus when jesus was 30 years old matthew says no that's not good enough so matthew goes all the way back to abraham because christ was a jew are y'all with me in here y'all promised me that i could teach for just a little while i'll let you know when we get to the preaching matthew goes all the way back to abraham because christ was a jew luke says no no no you're wrong because he is the god of mankind he starts with adam he goes all the way back to adam and john says all three of y'all are wrong john starts by painting the same words that moses penned in genesis 1. john says the proper place to start is in the beginning he said in the beginning was the word the word was with god and the word was god the same was in the beginning this writer of this book of john wants you to understand that this jesus was there all the time that he was there in the beginning you remember there's only one beginning moses and john are not writing about two different beginnings they are writing about the same beginning when john says in the beginning he is referring to the same beginning that was in genesis chapter one let's go there for just a little bit in the beginning god created the heavens and the earth and the earth was without form and void darkness was upon the face of the deep and the spirit of god moved upon the face of the water and god said he's about to announce something he says let there be light but he was not talking about the light that we see outside he was talking about the same light that john was talking about in john chapter number one in him was life and the life was the light of men he was giving us an introduction to his son jesus christ i need you to look at somebody and tell them the reason that i know i'll have a miracle is because i serve a man named jesus and he is a miracle worker i don't need everybody i just need a few of y'all because i told you you didn't have to stand up as long as i was teaching you didn't have the same man as long as i was teaching but there are about two of y'all in here that know that if it had not been for the light lord have mercy if it had not been for the light i would still be in darkness we want to praise god for miracles and money we want to praise god for miracles and health but the first miracle is that i'm saved sanctified and filled with the holy ghost do i have any people on a first sunday morning that just still glad to be saved still glad to be sanctified still glad to be filled with the holy ghost somebody open up your mouth and say i thank god for the light i thank him for the light we're still teaching you can have your seats john is not one of the synoptic gospels the synoptic gospels are those who are synonymous to each other they may tell stories from different points of view but they tell mostly the same stories um they have different views but they're looking from the same side john is not one of them he is different in so many ways john is the one whom jesus loved john is the one whom jesus entrusted with his mother john is the disciple slash apostle that lived the longest out of all of them perhaps jesus knew that he would live the longest and gave his mother to him but he is different because john does not mention so many things that the other disciples mentioned there are certain miracles that the others mentioned that john does not make mention of john does not mention the birth of jesus christ john does not mention the baptism of christ with john the baptist he talks a lot about john the baptist but never mentioned the baptism of christ he does not mention the temptation of christ he does not mention when christ cast out demons he does not mention the transfiguration of christ in the last supper he does not mention gethsemane and he does not mention the ascension of christ john is very direct with what he chooses to mention in fact he only mentions here's the number again seven miracles he only mentions seven miracles of christ the other disciples mentioned dozens of miracles john says i'm very intentional about what i'm going to share with you concerning our lord jesus christ do i still have my class with me this morning five of the seven miracles are new miracles that we've never heard before from any of the other disciples so he only mentions seven when the others mention dozens but john mentions five new miracles that are not mentioned by any of the other writers and john calls his miracles signs somebody say signs he calls them signs somebody say signs why is the word signs important i love john's gospel the word signs are important because signs always point you to something signs are always for people who need direction while we love miracles in church we got to understand where god positions miracles in the life of the believer you remember god says these signs shall follow them that believe come on somebody what it means my brother is that while i expect god to work a miracle i don't need a miracle to believe god lord i'll say it again i need to i need a miracle for me should go everywhere i go because these signs shall follow them that believe it's like a train of smoke wherever i go miracles should go but the issue is i don't need a miracle to believe god because i already believe him miracles are so that people who need to believe god can believe that he is a miracle worker now don't get me wrong there are seasons in my life where my faith level is low and god will give me a miracle so that i can be reminded of the fact that i'm god look at somebody and say he is gone he is gone john focuses on the miracles that only god can do he focuses on the miracles that are not common to man for example y'all with me here we're almost to preaching time so so just perk up in your seat a little bit for example john never mentions the casting out of devils why because casting out demons was common in that day everybody was casting out demons watch this even the pharisees were casting out demons so john says i will not mention the casting out of demons because these miracles that i will mention are miracles that no man can take any credit for that no man is common with god i need to show you that jesus can do what no man can do are y'all ready because it's preaching time look at your neighbor and say neighbor god is about to work an uncommon miracle in your life y'all don't believe it i said look at somebody and tell them what god is about to do in my life it's going to be uncommon oh i don't need what everybody else needs i can get a house with good credit i need me god to give me several houses y'all don't want to have no church i need businesses i can go to work and get more money than i have right now but only god can give me uncommon millions y'all don't want to have real church i said the doctor can give me medicine that can help with certain sicknesses but god can only heal stuff that the doctors can't figure out i'm telling you in indianapolis this morning that god is about to work some uncommon miracles in your life i need somebody who believes it just open your mouth and just shout uncommon uncommon uncommon john's focus i'm in preaching time now i need y'all to talk back to me john's focus was not only that you believe but john's focus watch it is that you go on believing in other words john 20 and 23 20 and 31 he says these were written that we believe he uses the word believe over a hundred times because his focus is not that you believe once but that you go on believing in other words somebody's faith get weak sometimes but john said i wrote this gospel so that when your faith is trying to get weak you will continue to believe that god is a miracle worker uses the word faith believe over a hundred time watch it but he uses it as a verb he does not use it as a noun because faith is not something we have faith is something we do i need you to open your mouth and tell somebody go on believing go on believing i know it doesn't look like you wanted to look right now but you got to go on believing i know that things are in shambles and your family might not be dealing with things in the proper but i need you to go on believing i know you don't have the money you want to have but somebody shout go on believing i'm resisting the urge this morning to deal with the theology of the text that the holy spirit was introducing himself in this text i need to be responsible with this text and tell you that there is an introduction to the holy spirit here but i'm resisting the urge to be theological so that i can deal with the ministry of miracles that is in the text because in jewish custom wine represented joy whenever they had a joyous occasion they wanted wine there y'all don't get quiet y'all try to have some wine when y'all want joy too stop it now y'all got quiet see how we act in church y'all act like y'all didn't know what i was talking about y'all know what y'all do when y'all want some joy whenever they wanted to have a party they had wine and at this particular occasion there should have been enough wine there to furnish everybody it was uncommon for you to have a wedding feast and run out of wine you can run out of food don't run out of wine come on somebody and at a wedding feast there should have been plenty what it suggests to us is that this family was probably poor while this miracle has theological meaning the ministry in this text is this that god will defy gravity and time to bless you when you are a believer i'm talking to somebody i said when you are a believer god will defy gravity and time to bless you we're getting ready to dig into it in a minute but i need you to understand that just like they lost the wine what they're really saying is and what mary was really saying was from a jewish perspective is restore the joy back to this party can i talk to some people in this season that have lost their joy i need to talk to some folk that life has beat up on you so bad that you're doing stuff but you're not doing it with joy you laying in the bed next to her but there's no joy you come in the church but there's no joy come on somebody you work in that job but there's no joy i prophesy tonight that if you would learn how to trust god tonight god will give you your joy back for the 40 praises this morning who really love god god says i will give you your joy back in a supernatural way somebody say i'm getting my joy back i'm getting my joy back here's the first thing you need to do tonight the first thing you need to understand if you need a miracle tonight the first thing you gotta have is you have to have unmovable faith somebody say my faith is unmovable james says the trying of your faith will work patience do you all know that your faith is on trial that god will purposely challenge your faith to see if you're going to keep believing him and really not to see for himself to show you yourself watch it mary comes to jesus and says we are the wine jesus says woman doesn't even call her mother woman what does this have to do with me watch it it's not my time my hour has not yet come oh but but i need you to understand that christ has to respond to your faith he has to respond when you believe god so what we forgot about mary is that mary remind the people of the miracle you've already experienced jesus have you forgotten that i carried you in a miraculous way that the fact that i birthed you out already defied gravity and time lord have mercy it it yo it defied gravity because i knew no husband yet i had a baby [Applause] it defied science because i knew no husband yet i had a baby it defied it defied time because i was supposed to get married but before i got to be married and get to know my husband i was pregnant with the savior [Music] i need you to understand that when your faith is tried you've got to believe god because god knows how to defy the gravity of your situation no matter how grave your circumstance circumstances no matter how much time you think you have or don't have i serve a god that will stop the watch or stop the clock so that he can do whatever it is he needs to do in your life do you not remember when he stopped the sun for joshua god can do anything but fail i need somebody in here to say my faith is unmovable i believe god no matter what i trust god no matter what i don't have all the money but i'm still trusting god the circumstances say something different but i'm still trusting god i need you to look at somebody next to you this morning and tell him you better keep trusting god come on tell him you better keep trusting keep trusting keep trusting him because god is about to do something that's going to blow the minds of everybody around you he's about to call and by the way just like mary this was not the first time you needed god to work a miracle god has already shown you that whatever you need him to do he will do it can i see the hands of those of you in the room that god has never let you down yet every time you needed him to work a miracle he came through for he may not come when you want him to but somebody open your mouth and say he's always he's always he's always on time here's what you need if you need a miracle tonight i told you all y'all need to promise to talk back to me we're almost out of here the second thing you need to understand is you need to understand that miracles work in weakness i said miracles work in weakness the bible says on the third day jesus was in cana of galilee the word cana means the place of the reed a reed is a symbol of weakness do i have any wind instrument players in here you ever play the clarinet you see that little piece of thin bamboo wood that you got to put in there that's what a reed is and the bible talks to us about how israel leaned on a broken reed when they leaned on their own understanding not only did they lead on a reed because a reed in itself is weak but but it says that they leaned on a broken reed this is where god gives solomon to pen the words trust in the lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding in all thy ways acknowledge god and he will direct your path cana is the place of the reed it is the place of weakness so this beginning of miracle started in a place of weakness need to help you understand that every time you need a miracle it's gonna start with a weak place in your life i'm boring y'all tonight i'm getting ready to get out of here every time you need god to do something amazing it's always going to come in a season where you don't know how god's going to work it it's always going to come in a place where you don't know how it's going to turn out it's always going to come in an hour where you're about ready to give up where you're about ready to quit when you're about ready to say forget all of them it's going to come in a time where you're ready to get in the car leave the babies the husband and everybody else behind the miracle is going to come when you said i've had enough i've done enough i'm out of here god sent me here tonight to tell somebody that he's got you right where he wants you because it is the apostle paul that writes to the corinthian church he said after my experience in the third heaven i kept asking god three times to remove this thorn from my flesh and he kept telling me no but then he says my strength is made perfect in your weakness i need somebody here tonight to know that you are being set up for a miracle like you've never seen before that god is about to show himself strong in your life because you are weak can i get some folks that are honest tonight and say bishop i'm weak i'm weak in some areas there's some areas that i'm ready to quit in there's some areas i need god to lift me in come on lift your hands and say lord i need my miracles to start i need i need it to start here's the interesting thing that cana doesn't belong to itself cana is the place of weakness but the bible says cana is of galilee the word galilee means power it means circuit lord have mercy it is the place of the circuit or the place of the circle the place of power here's what it is because a circuit is something that takes power from the atmosphere lord have mercy because power is in the atmosphere lord can't you feel the power in this place didn't you feel the power of god moving in this place but every power or everything in the atmosphere in order for it to get in the earth realm needs a circuit or something that it can be grounded to so that it can move through i'm talking to somebody in here the thing you've got to understand about cana is that cana belongs to galilee in other words the way that i get my miracle this morning is that i've got to be in a place of power y'all ain't saying nothing this is the reason why i go to new zealand temple this is the reason why i come wherever i need to come because there is a man here by the name of bishop brandon jacobs that is god's circuit i don't want to have church the power that's in the atmosphere god can take him and use him to release my miracle i need somebody in here that knows that god is about to send your miracle through the circuit this word circuit comes from the word circle in other words who you're connected to matters i'm talking to somebody because we're living in a time where everybody is church hopping everybody is all over the place ah y'all don't want to have no church in here there is nobody faithful into a ministry or to a man that god has sent them to or a woman but god says that the power is in the circuit or the circle y'all stay with me put it in your back pocket we're going to pull it out later because i need you to understand that every time god gives you a miracle god is going to do it through the circle or the circuit if you want to understand why things are not getting better and it seems as if you are suffering beyond your time i need you to check your circle check who you're connected to oh y'all ain't saying nothing check the place you send your tithes to oh y'all don't want to have church uh yeah you will receive from new zion temple's ministry but is this the place you're really connected to does bishop know that you love him does bishop know that you're lifting his arms up because this is a season beloved where those who are connected will get the miracle i know we're living in a time where everybody says well god you only subject to god okay well why is it that god uses people then good measure pressed down shaken together running over shall men give unto your bosom when he got ready to heal the blind man he spit and put his spit something from his mouth he put it in clay do you all know what clay represents clay represents men he says when i get ready to open up your eyes i will put my essence from my mouth into a clay individual and i will cause your eyes to be open i need somebody in this place to open your mouth and say lord i believe that miracles are getting ready to begin in my life but it's because of the circuit that i'm connected to i need somebody to check your circle and sometimes you get weaker before the miracle happens somebody say sometimes you get weaker do you know how it's in the text the bible says that mary asked for wine stay with me she asked for wine somebody said she asked for wine she asked for wine but the bible says when jesus got ready to work the miracle they asked for wine but he poured water can i ask you a question and i normally don't do this because y'all don't act right when people ask questions while they're preaching what are you going to do when you ask for one thing and god pours another [Music] because sometimes you're so spiritually agitated that you can't even wait on god doesn't it seem like before god gets ready to work the miracles that stuff gets worse before it gets better i just want to talk to the real folks where you're at god don't always bring the miracle on chariots with loud praise music sometimes the miracle comes in your darkest hour when you're sitting around doubting god because god is not doing what you ask for him to do because it always gets worse before it gets better but i need somebody in new zealand temple this morning to open your mouth and say i'm believing god for miracles come on say i believe in god for miracles the power is found in galilee it is in the circuit here's the next point that's connected to that you got to check your circle somebody say i got to check your circle here's why because isaiah 65 and 8 says that new wine is found in the cluster so anytime you're going to get fresh wine there will always be a check of your surroundings and people you're connected to because you don't get new wine without getting new people [Music] oh when god gets ready to release another level of power sometimes he will subtract and then he will add and this is really what covet did for the church because god wanted the church to go to another level of power so he wiped the church out and let everybody who was really connected come back and there are folk that were never connected in the first place or they were connected for the wrong reason god says i know you were used to having packed out churches but god said you don't need all of that dead weight god said now go after the ones that really want the power i need to talk to some people in here that been crying over friends you lost you've been crying over relationships you lost you've been crying over stuff and god sent me here tonight on i-65 southbound just to tell somebody that your new season of power is on the way but your miracle begins when god starts changing your circle i need some folk in my circle that know how to pray in the holy ghost i need some folks that i can call and be myself i need some people that are not going to judge me because i'm struggling in my flesh i need to have that friend that i can call on the phone and say i'm getting ready to do something that i know i shouldn't be doing and they not judge you but pray for you look at somebody and say there's a new season of power coming but it's coming with a new cluster there's a new set of people that you haven't even met yet that god is about to release into your life somebody somebody somebody somebody is looking for you and they gotta check with your name on it because new wine is found in the cluster i need somebody that believes that god is still a miracle working god to open up your mouth and say this is a new season for me and i believe that everybody connected to me is about to go to another level of power i need somebody to open up your mouth and say lord my faith is unmovable no matter what the situation looks like i believe god my faith is at a place in god that no matter what the doctor says i still believe god my faith is at a place in god that no matter what the money looks like i still believe god and this is the beginning of miracles that when i was in my lowest place god lifted me up can i get a witness in here that can testify that when you were ready to give up god lifted you up tell somebody around you i serve a god that is the lifter of my head and every time i get ready to quit he lifts me up the last thing i need to tell you tonight is that god always saves the best for last the bible lets us know tonight that when the wedding master tasted the wine he was a little bit confused because the bible says and it teaches us tonight that when they had a wedding feast they would always serve the best wine first and when they gave out the best wine the best wine would make them drunk and they would be too drunk to recognize when they were given the cheaper wine and the wedding master was confused he said because normally we put the best wine out first but he said you jesus have done something different here he said you saved the best for last look at your neighbor tonight and tell your neighbor say neighbor i serve a god this morning that will save the best for last i've been through seasons season after season while i have waited on god i've been through days and weeks months and years of asking god to work a miracle but i'm glad tonight that i serve a god that saved the best for last somebody watching us this morning needs to open your mouth and thank god that when the devil tried to tell you that god wasn't going to do it god he came in and saved his best miracle for last open your mouth and tell god thank you tell them thank you that i'm about to have what the devil told me i couldn't have open your mouth this morning and tell god thank you that i'm about to receive what the devil told me i couldn't open your mouth and tell god thank you i could have been dead but i'm a walking miracle and i serve a god that's still healing cancer i serve a god that's still regulating blood pressure i serve a god that's still regulating diabetes i serve a god that's still healing aids still healing cogan i serve a god that can turn water into wine i serve a gun that can part the red sea i serve a god that can cause me to be in my right mind when i should have lost my mind can i get a witness that he is a miracle worker and he will work a miracle for you have you any rivers that you cannot cross have you in a mountain that you cannot follow through i serve a god that is well able to do anything but fail open your mouth and tell god thank you tell him thank you because i i prophesy that there's a season of miracles coming to your house i'm here tonight because god is about to give new zealand a season of miracles and it's because of the power that's in your circle new zion temple is a network it ain't just a church it's a network y'all sitting like i ain't saying nothing i need those of you who know the words of prophecy open your mouth and help me prophesy say it new zion is a network news iron network of churches is about to be birthed new zion in atlanta new zealand in north carolina new zealand in california new zealand in chicago it's a network and god is about to release the power of bishop brandon jacobs into the earth i need some praises some intercessors to open your mouth and give god praise [Applause] [Music] open your mouth in here and give god because when he go up we go up i'm connected to a power source i'm connected to god's man and now begins a season of miracles tumors will fall off growth will come back arms that have been withered will come back to their natural force i'm telling y'all that god is about to send y'all a season a miracle he's coming to new zealand in indianapolis he's going down i-65 and going to new zealand [Music] somebody somebody somebody somebody shall multiply i said shall multiply i said shall multiply multiplication [Music] multiply

before but i need you to understand new zion temple is a network not just a church that god is about to cause your bishop and i hear the lord saying that there's an apostolic anointing on his life watch it the reason he has to be in the airways is because i'm giving him favor and influence in every city and every state he goes in and i needed to establish him and i needed to establish him i need the intercessors to start praying and covering this word i needed to establish him and god said i will establish his network and i'm about to do something with his net worth and everybody in this

it [Music] in fact something gonna start happening tonight turn it guard turn it god turn it [Music] and there'll be miracles signs and wonders i don't know somebody rode by a building and said to yourself this will be good for our church and i i heard it when i was in the office and i said the lord's going to give them a building and then my son said that he released the word over you guys and so i was proving the word to see if it was of god or not in my own self and when he said it was confirmation here's what the lord told me i hadn't been to you all to preach since you all were at the school the lord said i won't come back again until you're in your new building i don't know when that's going to be but god's about to give you another building he's going to give you another building and if what's happening is the people who own the building wherever this building is they may play a little hardball but god said i'm setting you up so that when they give it to you they're gonna have to give it to you for much less than what you what they thought they were gonna have to sell it they're gonna they're gonna they're gonna outbid themselves they're gonna play so much hardball that after a while they just gonna have to give the building away god said be patient but i'm about to work it in your favor i need somebody who loves this church and knows that i'm finished i'm finished i'm finished cause miracles are coming how many of you believe miracles are coming speaking over your whole self [Music] she lives in indianapolis god said he's about to work a miracle for your mother

everybody else everything else is going to fall in line everything else is going to fall in line but you're the key whenever you see your mother again you can do it god can send the word and he can heal him but god said i want your family to understand who you are when you go to your mother i want you to lay hands on her wherever it is i don't even know if you know ask her if you don't lay hands on whatever it is that's ailing her and god said i'm going to heal her by the touch of your hand because there is healing in your hands and god said i have called you for such a time as this i come
