lifted up jesus above all above all of our issues all of our trouble all of the things that get in the way jesus you are above all so we give you this night we say come lord jesus come we say come lord jesus come in the name of jesus come lord jesus come thank you jesus when we were worshiping um i just felt that there is someone that you have cysts in your ovaries and you have issues where you have ruptured cysts and god is healing you from that right now in jesus name i thank you jesus i also felt when we were worshiping that there's just some people in here that you just need to let go you have committed your life to jesus but something in your mind has said but i will always have this issue and no you will not always have that issue because who the son sets free is free indeed who the sun sets free is free indeed [Applause] so you now have the mind of christ you don't have to carry the shame anymore you don't have to carry the guilt anymore once you have come to jesus and asked him to forgive you of your sins you are a new creation in christ jesus so tonight it's time to let it die let it go that's not who you are in jesus name in the name of jesus thank you jesus sometimes i just i just feel for some reason that someone is dealing with that you've let it go you've come to jesus you've repented but the shame of your past is trying to rear its ugly face in your life again and it's jesus is to take he took it all it's washed and covered by the blood of jesus christ your sins are washed as white as snow the bible says that he drives it away as far as the east is from the west it's his it's his it's not yours so my prayer is that you live truly free tonight because that's how he wants you to live when you live free you have joy you laugh you cry you sing you dance you shout because you're free in jesus name [Applause] [Music] thank you jesus thank you jesus yes thank you jesus okay how about we give it up for our wonderful worship team if someone can give me my phone and my bible and a pulpit we have a really special night for you tonight my dad is with us tonight so it's gonna be a fun night so i'm gonna take offering quickly so we can let him know not quickly but you know what i mean we're gonna let him get to it don't you guys love being in the house of the lord i'll say that again don't you love to be in the house of the lord you know recently i was able to visit a church and i'm not saying it's wrong i'm just saying i realize what god is doing here is really special i was watching in this church people get baptized and i watched the claps they were like courtesy claps and i said oh my gosh these people are getting baptized where is the joy in the body because when god does that we celebrate these things so i'm just so blessed to be with you i don't know how else to say it i feel honored that we all get to come together and be with jesus there's nothing like it this is rare this is rare but it's jesus so it shouldn't be rare this should be happening everywhere across the world this should not be unique [Applause] so as as much as i it was beautiful to see that i thought wow what i was like that's very different than our sunday night crowd when people get baptized you know we're like yeah and i love it let's never turn the dial down amen okay so it's offering time offering time okay so i'm going to be reading to you from first chronicles 29 actually give me a moment here let's actually start at yeah 29 3 through 4. i'm going to skip around a bit but i really feel like this is this just ministered to me so i wanted to share it with you and then we'll go from five through six and nine i'm just going to start reading it to you i'm going to be reading from the new living translation so first chronicles 29 i'm gonna start at chapter three and now because of my devotion to the temple of my god i am giving all of my own private treasures of gold and silver to help in the construction this is in addition to the building materials i have already collected for his holy temple now then who will follow my example and give offerings to the lord today that's what i feel like the lord is telling us jesus people who will follow our example we are the example to the world we need to look like jesus then the family leaders the leaders of the tribes of israel the generals and captains of the army and the king's administrative officers all gave willingly the people rejoiced over the offerings for they had given freely and wholeheartedly to the lord and king david was filled with joy i know that feeling it's a joyful thing when you lead people and they love to give willingly and you don't have to beg them because we should never beg anyone to give to jesus it's a joy that we get to give to the lord this was david's prayer after he gave to the lord this is um chapter 29 first chronicles i'm going to start at verse 10. then david praised the lord in the presence of the whole assembly o lord the god of our ancestor israel may you be praised forever and ever yours o lord is the greatness the power the glory the victory and the majesty listen to this everything in the heavens and on earth is yours oh lord and this is your kingdom we adore you as the one who is over all things say all things wealth and honor come from you alone for you rule over everything power and might are in your hand and at your discretion people are made great and given strength oh our god we thank you and praise your glorious name listen to this part but who am i this is king david talking but who am i and who are my people that we could give anything to you see he was aware everything we have is because jesus gave it to us first everything we have has come from you and we give you only what you first gave us oh lord our god even this material we have gathered to build a temple to honor your holy name comes from you it all belongs to you i know my god that you examine our hearts and rejoice when you find integrity there we want to be integrous people right amen that baby wants to be in chaggers too good job buddy you know i have done all this with good motives and i have watched your people offer their gifts willingly and joyously i love that i'm gonna end with this i love this part though oh lord the god of our ancestors abram isaac and israel make your people always want to obey you see to it that their love for you never changes isn't that the cry of our heart i know i pray that lord let my love never change increase it intensify it deepen it every single day i don't want to stay here you know what i mean i want to go deeper and deeper and deeper that's the cry of my heart give my son solomon this is the heart of a father the wholehearted desire to obey all your commands laws and decrees and to do everything necessary to build this temple for which i have made the preparations amen right so let's just open our heart to god right now as you know tai that this is your church tithe is a tense of your first fruit but the bible says you've robbed me in my tithes and offerings so not only are jesus people people that tithe and obey but we're generous people that love to give to the lord amen

proud of michael whoa listen the lord has anointed these young people in a powerful way really he has by the way thank you joel you just stay with me right there thank you and so the lord be praised and the people of god said amen listen i want to talk to you tonight first of all about something very important in fact it's the most important thing i can talk about your soul i just want you to listen and to think because you know there's a lot of young people here so you sweet young people life is exciting you know now for you yeah things are just marvelous but you see life is short and the older you are the shorter it gets and the quicker it goes by so it was only yesterday i was a little boy in jaffa really it was only yesterday i have memories so vivid of my childhood it was just like yesterday and now i'm 69 years old dear lord i can't believe it i have beautiful children and grandchildren and one on the way maybe tonight my little lily is almost there my little alicia my youngest is about to give birth to a beautiful little boy named judah and there's also benedictus somewhere in there anyways so it was only yesterday my kids were born really it was only yesterday that we had grandchildren and now look jessica with beautiful children three children tashi sitting here two children joshua he's free for now you know it's i mean life just goes by like that and you come to the place all of us come to the place where as we get older we think about one thing only how will we finish see i began strong like when you people go when you run you know when you go running i was a good runner when i was a little kid and our priest i was brought up by catholics a priest said one thing to us i'll never forget he said listen if you want to win there's three laws number one don't worry about the guy next door to you never look at the guy next door number two keep your eye on that finish line and number three don't give up keep running but that really stayed with me and that's the christian life if you really want to win don't worry about the guy next door how he's doing you just focus on the finish line and never give up never give up so your soul i want to ask you a question and just think okay how do you know you're saved who told you an angel did you have a dream about it did you have a vision no how do you know you said well i know that's not good enough how do you know what guarantee do you have if you die tomorrow and you can you could that you'll be in the presence of god how do you know that see people don't think about death they just don't especially when they're young they just don't want to nobody wants to talk about death nobody now you have to think about this when i stand in the presence of god will he accept me or reject me will he smile or not smile so the bible says make your election sure how all right let's first deal with this and i'm talking to committed believers and i'm talking to not so committed believers and i'm also talking to people who are not believers who think they are believers so let's just talk to all of you clear all right number one the bible is very clear on all have sinned period now the word of god is clear on that the sinner must die ezekiel 18 says the sinner has to die why because god is holy someone asked me one day they said how come in the old testament god required blood i said because he's holy explain that i said all right i'll tell you number one i said god is so holy that he does not allow any darkness in his presence nor can darkness be in his presence light expels darkness before you sweet people came in here the lights were off and the place was dark somebody turned the lights on what happened the darkness was expelled it's the same with god he's light and the sinner is darkness meaning the sinner cannot be in the presence of god god will expel him because he's darkness we believers are light in the lord so unbelievers are darkness they're a part of the kingdom of darkness so darkness and light cannot be in the same room so god almighty said to his people israel he said now look i am so holy that i demand that a sinner has to be killed has to die therefore because of my covenant with you i will require that someone dies in your place before you approach me so they had to kill animals the animal became the substitute comprende the animal became the substitute for that individual to approach god even to pray they had to offer blood the animal had to die so someone can call upon the lord but the bible says that the blood of animals cannot cover sin jesus came the lamb of god the substitute for our sin and he offered himself in our place he shed his blood for us so the bible says the wages of sin is death number one all have sinned they have to die the wages of sin death they have to die but there's something beautiful there's a gift romans 6 23 says the gift of god is what life eternal eternal life through jesus we cannot come to the father without coming through jesus quite simple so there's a gift you don't have to pay for it you just accept it jesus did not say on the cross to be continued he said it is finished meaning you cannot continue nor you can nor can you add to what he did it's done i said to a mormon one day named kiwi i said kiwi jesus said it's finished and he just looked at me he was ahead of my security and jesse and all of them knew he was a wonderful man i said kiwi he was from samoa a big guy that scared you i said you're a mormon jesus did not say to be continued by joseph smith that man got saved just like that because he got he got the message jesus said it's finished nobody can add to the work of the cross you see so the work is done what do we have to do well i'll tell you now you know people say just accept jesus that's not good enough no no now you you listen i just got your your attention because see people come to the to the altar oh lord i'm sorry and i accept you but why are you accepting him you see that's the question are you accepting him so you don't have so you do not go to hell and my answer is he is not a fire escape you do not accept jesus so you don't burn then you're selfish you're accepting him to use him basically oh lord i need you so i don't burn that's that's not a good reason he did not he did not die on the cross for that you see we accept him because we want to follow him and serve him and be faithful to him unto the end and give him our life completely die to ourselves and live unto him not so i can escape hell he's not a fire escape so we accept him on the basis of love we want to love him serve him follow him live for him so i asked a young man who used to work with me a question one day i said have you ever had a face-to-face encounter with the son of god he said i speak in tongues i said i didn't ask you that because many people speak in tongues and live like devils tongues is not proof of salvation that's not proof of salvation what is the proof i'm telling you so keep listening so i said have you ever had a face to face encounter with the son of god he had no clue what i said that's a listen here and so when we read the scriptures there are four things that are given to us that we have to experience before we can ever say i'm saved four things have got to happen in your life so i'm talking to all of you i want you to think and ask yourself did you really have these experiences number one salvation is not where someone comes to the altar and prays a prayer because prayer does not save jesus saves so just because somebody prays it doesn't mean they're born again a guy came down look i've seen hundreds of thousands possibly millions born again in my own meetings and i saw one guy in a big church crying like a whatever he was losing it so i went out and said hey calm down i said why are you crying so much oh my my grandmother died and i want to go be with my grandmother i rebuked him i said you want to be safe to be with your grandmother i said jesus didn't die so you can see your grandmother i rebuked that guy i said when we get to heaven we will not be in heaven for grandmama oh mommy or daddy i said the bible says whom do i have in heaven but you lord i'm not going to go to heaven to see my mom and my dad so be free from that nonsense heaven is about jesus not mom and dad all grandma grandpa uncles and aunts you seem to forget when you get to heaven you will not think like you think now so come down so they they come to the altar for the wrong reason so here are the four things number one and it's in scripture it's in the gospel of matthew chapter 16. when jesus came to caesarea philippi he looked and said to his disciples he asked a great question he said whom do men say that i am well lord some say you're john the baptist risen from the dead and some say you're one of the prophets and then he asked a big question he said who do you say i am and he's asking you the same today who do you say that jesus is and peter spoke thou art the christ the son of the living god and when that happened four things took place because later the lord said i give you the keys of the kingdom meaning he guaranteed his entrance into heaven i give you the keys of the kingdom means you will come in i want that guarantee too you want that guarantee too so number one peter came face to face with the son of god have you peter came face to face with the son of god meaning jesus became more real you see salvation is that jesus will become more real than yourself more real than life more real than parents i got saved february 14 1972 george verni high school 7 50 in the morning i was in a prayer meeting with these young people who had been harassing me for a year in school every time i would be in class jesus loves you jesus i thought they were crazy because i grew up greek orthodox and we greek otherwise believed we're the only christians on earth i was baptized by the patriarch the patriarch like the pope of the greek orthodox church baptized me and gave me his name benedictus that's from the patriarch so when you talk about christians we really were christians in our own brain in our own head i was an altar boy in church i carried the cross behind the the priest and almost choked to death behind them you missed that one you see the greek orthodox church they have incense and with the censor the priest was saying kill your life shall cure your life so kill your on and that incense almost shook me to death back there and i would be walking behind him carrying his cross and wanting to breathe because that incense was coming in my face you see so in my mind i was the real christian those guys were crazy because they talk about jesus and jesus loves you and i'm that okay okay fine and then they were in my classroom i couldn't get away from them but god sent them and so they said come to our prayer meeting at that time they had prayer meetings in school thank god so i go to this prayer meeting and to my shock they all start talking in languages it freaked me out and then i said lord lord now you see when i was a kid i saw the lord in a in a beautiful vision but i never even knew how to pray that sinner's prayer nobody had told me and all i said is jesus come back jesus come back and i'm sitting in class french class we had a very tough teacher oh she was nasty and the lord became more real to me than the teacher and i began crying in class and i put my head on the desk and the whole class was was listening because they all looked at me i'm sobbing and crying out loud jesus i love you jesus i love you and my cousin salud who is a very famous doctor today said she was sitting me down and that thursday lorne cunningham i went to a church and lauren cunningham from wyoming preached an amazing message i still remember and explained salvation to me for the first time with 3 000 kids and i came down the aisle and got saved so on monday i said jesus come back but on thursday i came and got on my knees with people all over the place nobody nobody knew who i was but you see something happened to me in that class i saw the lord coming towards me he became more real to me than that teacher he became more real than the students he became so real i began crying i love you i love you i love you so i don't know what kind of experience you've had maybe it was in class and crying but if jesus has not become real to you you are not his it has to be that face face-to-face encounter what he is more real to you than your skin it's a moment you'll never forget i call it the golden rope that holds your soul with his because when you have trouble you go right back to that moment when he became so real to you and he's been real to me many times since but that first time oh that's special number two the second thing that happened to peter is he received a revelation of the holy spirit that this is the son of god you see you have to understand there were many people back then claiming to be messiah he said you are the christ you are the son of god it wasn't something the pastor told him it wasn't something his parents told him it wasn't something that convinced him because of miracle signs and wonders he knew by the spirit and jesus said flesh and blood have not revealed this to you but my father so the second requirement is has the holy spirit truly reveal jesus to your heart or is it something you learn from sunday school or church or parents or whatever no no because if that is the case one day troubles will show up and you will lose everything that's why people depart from the faith they're they have no foundation to it the real foundation is face to face encounter if you've ever had that face to face you can never walk away no matter what happens number two that revelation that the holy spirit has given you that this is jesus do you know today many religions have their own messiahs do you know that the jewish people believe millions of them believe that a rabbi from new york is the messiah and he's been dead over 30 years yeah have you have you seen signs that say khabad on buildings well yeah they're all over the place that's them and they believe that a guy from new york is messiah people fly to israel and see massive billboards with the picture of a guy that looks like abraham lincoln black hat blackness beard he looks horrible and they think he's messiah and it says in in hebrew this is messiah and they're still waiting for him to rise from the dead he's been dead for 34 something years never be never been to israel he's from new york and the bible says the real messiah comes from bethlehem born in bethlehem this guy was born in new york and millions of millions of these people that do this believe he's messiah no there's only one real messiah and he is jesus christ the son of god that's it and no oprah winfrey is wrong jesus is not one way to heaven lady he is the way to heaven the only way to heaven i'm sorry i'm i'm i'm too old to care and i've lost my filter and i'm going to keep it gone because the truth must be declared jesus only jesus is the the the only way to heaven now number three number three is peter acknowledged he said you are the christ he spoke it out number four he acknowledged publicly the others heard him he didn't do it in private in some private place meaning no shame anyone who's ashamed of jesus does not know him speak because because he said you're the christ and everybody heard him no shame no fear anyone who doesn't want to mention the name of jesus is not his because when you belong to him you are bold and you declare his name with all your heart so now the bible is clear these are the foundations so when i ask myself when i'm laying in bed and i'm thinking about how how am i going to finish i think about that moment he became real the holy spirit revealed to my heart this is the messiah when i did not even know how to pray the sinner's prayer you see prayer doesn't save it's not repeat after me that doesn't save you either because you're only repeating what what a guy says to you but when it's your heart oh it's so real you say jesus come into my heart and he comes in and he makes so himself so real in your life i don't mean to be you know to impress you he's more real to me than you guys he really is that reality is what keeps us in the faith that reality is what keeps us peaceful when trials come our way that reality keeps us alive so i want you to think now do you really know him have you really met him face to face is he real to you today is he more real than the guy next door to you sitting next to you do you know by the holy spirit that this is truly the son of god you know many people have read the bible and they are not saved there are many professors in many schools and universities who know the bible they're not saved i had guides in israel who knew the bible better than most of you they have they they had to know the bible to be guides not one of them except of the lord not one of them knew him they knew the bible they could tell you chapter and verse in oh it says in the new testament in john and and they and they'll be showing you the sites repeating scriptures to you not one of them is saved how because see the bible doesn't save jesus saves when he becomes real through the word that's different that reality is so important i was in mauritius years ago right there by south africa we had 50 000 every night in the services and i was there for three nights and i was on my way to the to the airport and i said to my driver how did you enjoy the crusade he said i was not there i said no no you picked me up you were my driver wait a minute oh he said i stayed in my car while you were preaching i was in the car i said why would you go to your car oh he said i'm hindu i said oh they sent me a hindu driver i said what's your name he gave me his name long name and i said how long before we get to the airport he said 20 minutes i said what's your name he told me his name i said lord i'm going to get him i said 20 minutes that's all i need i said how many gods do you serve oh millions oh jesus i said you have millions of gods yep i said have any of those gods ever shown in any interest in your life no have any of those gods ever told you that they love you no ah i said let me ask you a question have any of your gods or anyone else ever said these words to you so now he's listening really tuned in have any of your gods ever said come unto me all you labor and our heavy laden and i will give you rest did any of your gods ever offer you rest that they wanted your burdens no i said these words were spoken by one man his name is jesus by that time we came to the airport he looks back at me says today i will be no longer hindu i want to be christian and later and later i said why he said no one has ever spoken such words i want to know that one who will carry my burdens so by your heads please by your heads please and no one moving no one walking around not one of you if you die tomorrow how do you know you'll stand in the presence of the lord and see a smile what assurance do you have that you belong to him have you ever had that moment when he became more real than your own life those who want that assurance it's not something to play games with you see if you want that assurance that he really belongs to you and you belong to him that when that moment comes and your heart stops beating you'll be in his presence and see his smile and hear his wonderful words well done if you want that reality you've never had it but you want it lift your hands up high i want to see it just stand right there where you are stand up those of you that put your hands up yeah because see you have to do this publicly there's no such thing as private confessions you know you have to do it publicly and so lord i publicly acknowledge you i

thank you now listen before before you leave look at someone and say i'll see you in heaven you can do a better job than that guy right there one more time come on look in his eyes yeah come on that's better you can go to your seats now and everyone say welcome my man you may be seated thank you joel bless you now i want to feed you the word if you're ready for it and what time is it i can't see back there 7 45 i'm doing marvelous yeah [Laughter] i want to minister on the glorious power of prayer and i want you to pay attention to what the word says the word says we are living in very dangerous days and unless we call upon the lord we are not going to make it the bible says watch and pray always always not just sometimes that you may be worthy to escape the things that are coming on earth and to stand before the son of man so in the gospel of luke chapter 101 verse 36 it says pray always that you may escape the trouble that's coming on the planet yes i believe in the rapture of course i do i believe in a great catching up of course and the bible says to stand before the son of man meaning to be to to be accepted now let's go to jeremiah 33 and look at verse 3. you all know it by heart i'm sure call unto me god says put those scriptures on the screen if possible if not it's all right call on to me and i will answer thee and show the great and mighty things that dano is not what a privilege we have as god's people to be able to call on the lord and he answers call unto me i will answer thee and then he says i will show you great and mighty things you don't know so let's understand one thing that sinners do not pray no they do not pray because the bible says that the wicked say i don't want to pray there's no need for me to pray and the word of god in psalm 34 17 says the righteous cry only the righteous people pray he said what do you mean by the sinners don't pray well they utter words but they don't pray they utter words but they don't pray they are not talking to the lord they have no relationship with the lord and he's not listening anyways the only prayer that god will hear a sinner say is save my soul then he'll hear the rest now you sweet people i'm being really nice to you oh am i being nice to you if you attended my church in occ oh when i minister the word nobody is allowed to move around and if you have to go to the bathroom i don't care hold it because see when you walk you distract people and when you distract people they are not able to hear the word that could save their life or bless them so when when i minister the word or when michael preaches or when jesse respect the presence of god when i was pastor if anybody walked out on me i locked the doors on them they were not allowed back i'm serious i like the doors i said don't let that that guy back in and say well he left his i said i don't care what he left he's going to stay in the lobby till i'm done lock him out and they did that boy never went out when i was teaching ever again joe mandel your daddy remember remembers those days oh yeah i said to him hey listen if you want to if you have to go to the bathroom go during the offering now when i'm teaching and then i said and if you stay too long in that bathroom i'm sending that that usher after you to get your offering and they did believe me you would not believe it i had guys that went to take the offering while they were on the toilet say pastor benny says where's your time and they couldn't believe it i said if you stay too long in that bathroom that russia is coming after you with the with a with the bucket and they did that's a fact aren't you glad i am not your pastor aren't you glad it's michael and jessica and not me see i'm old-fashioned so it's all right i can't understand why you kids are wearing jeans with holes in them oh dear god this is the house of the lord you have to have a jacket on and a shirt and proper pants and nice shoes not running shoes and no socks and holes i can't figure that out but it's okay it's okay that's you and that's me i bless you all even with your holy pants that's fine i thank god okay the righteous cry see i gotta make you laugh so you can receive you know psalm 34 17 the righteous cry and the lord heareth and delivers them out of all their trouble so the sinners when they pray god does not hear them i know it makes people upset when they hear that but it's the it's the word the righteous cry the lord hears the prayers of the righteous it says now the wicked look what it says about them let's go to job 21 and notice what it says about this it's quite revealing really if you look at verse 7 it says why do the wicked live wherefore do the wicked live become old and almighty in power so it's talking about the wicked then in verse 14 look what it says therefore they say this is job 21 14. therefore they say unto god depart from us we desire not the knowledge of thy ways they don't want to know the lord what is the almighty that we should serve him and what prophet should we have if we pray unto him that's what we could say we don't want to pray we don't want to pray now watch the results of prayerlessness lo their good is not in their hand the counsel of the wicked is far from me people that don't pray have no counsel it says the counsel of the wicked is far meaning those people who don't pray have no direction in their life god is not speaking to them or counseling them or directing them or guiding them they are on their own and any christian who doesn't pray will also have no counsel look what else it says verse 17 how often is the candle of the wicked put out people that don't want to pray they have no light it says why there's no candle their candle is put out meaning darkness in their life and how often comes their destruction upon them god distributed sorrows in his anger so people that don't pray they have no counsel verse 16 no light verse 17 and they have no what protection they are not preserved and protected from harm it says their destruction comes on them look at verse 18 they are a stubble before the wind as chaff that the storm carries away meaning they are not preserved so people who don't pray no counsel no light no protection and no preservation it's all in the bible and then it says this in verse 19 god layeth up his iniquity for his children not only is that person not forgiven of his own sins but his children pay for it not only is he paying but they're paying people that don't pray are bringing a curse on their family it's in the word because it says in this verse god lays up his iniquity for his children meaning there's a judgment coming on his own kids or her own kids he rewards him and he will know it verse 20 is scary his eyes shall see his destruction he shall drink of the wrath of the almighty no mercy on his life so people that don't pray there's no light first there's no counsel then there's no light then there's no protection then there's no preservation then there's wrath on their children there's no forgiveness to them or their children and then there's no mercy there's wrath that should that should get me praying quick because i don't want any of that in my life now in job 15 14 you know it says that people who don't pray don't fear the lord there's no fear of god so anyone who doesn't pray really does not fear the lord because fearing the lord and prayer go together it says in job 15 4 yea thou cast us off fear and restraineth prayer before god when there's no fear in your life nobody wants to pray and then they don't pray because they don't delight in the lord anybody who doesn't love god will never pray that's job 27 verse 10. so in god's word we see a lot about prayerlessness you know so job 27 10 here's what it says will he delight himself in the almighty will he always call upon god and you know why people don't pray in the psalms it says anyone who has no knowledge of god if they lack knowledge if they lack the knowledge of god and his word they will not pray so this is this is powerful but let me read it quickly psalm 14 verse 4 have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge who eat up my people as they eat bread and they call not upon the lord so i'm going to give you a key i have found as a christian and as a minister when the word is in you you will have a prayer life because in john 15 7 it says if my word abides in you you will ask you will pray so prayer is the result of the word of god in people's lives now i want you to notice a beautiful portion in job 28 this is one of the most beautiful uh revelations of what happens when you do pray i showed you what happens when you don't pray and why people don't pray now let's look at what happens when they do pray job 28 7 through 9. i want you to see that beautiful portion and underline it in your bible it's beautiful there is a path which no foul knoweth which the vultures eye hath not seen the lion's welps have not trod in it nor the fierce lion pass by it oh this is awesome he puts forth his hand upon the rock he overturns the mountains by the roots he cuts out rivers among the rocks his eyes sit every precious thing he binds the floods from overflowing and the thing that is hid bringeth he forth the light there is a path there is a place look at me all of you there is a place no demon can find it says watch this there is a path which no foul knoweth no vultures eye has seen it who are the vultures devils this is called the hiding place the secret place why is it secret because the devil doesn't know where it is nor can you find it when you get on your knees look at me all over you and pay attention when you get on your knees you literally move into a place of hiding because the bible says we hide in the lord he becomes our hiding sanctuary you've heard the story the animal the deer if it's being chased by another animal knows one thing to find water and if it finds water it jumps in the water and the animal chasing it can no longer find it because the scent is lost the scent is lost so whatever animal is chasing the deer cannot smell them anymore because of the water when you pray you lose your scent the devil can't smell you so start praying you know why some some some of you have devils because you don't pray why you're uh you're harassed by demons who talk to you because you don't pray so i do listen here your your you're only saying words you're not praying because real prayer is you wait upon the lord he quickens you and then it starts to be real you see you can't pray till god opens the door you cannot call on god till he has called on you did you get that no you didn't you cannot seek him till he seeks you he is god in your dust how can thus talk to god he has to quicken you first that's why it says they that wait upon the lord renew their strength they're quickened so when you sit in in the presence of god be quiet don't say a word just be quiet and there'll be a moment when he'll touch you and you'll sense it something in you will come up will come alive inside your heart and then your words become beautiful and your words become chosen and your words become real it's not from your prayer list give me give me give me bless me no no no it's real and those are the prayers that the holy spirit produces in you that's prayer madame guyan used to say and i even did it this morning i went upon the lord by reading his word very quietly and i read till he quickens me and when he quickens me i pray so the bible says in job and the scriptures clearly don't be hasty with your mouth let your words be few he's god you're not so what do you do do what i do read your bible real quiet or play some worship music and just sit still and there'll be a moment god will touch your heart and then you'll really pray and when you pray these things i'm talking to you about will happen you will come into a place no vultures can see you it says there's a path there's a place there's a beautiful place of secret no foul knoweth the vultures i have not seen it the lion's welps demonic principalities have not thrown in it they've not been there or the fierce lion satan himself passed by it now watch what what happens this is marvelous when you're in that place it says god look at verse 9 he puts forth his hand upon the rock and overturns the mountains by the roots meaning god makes a way where there was no way before he puts his hand literally on a rock in your way he gets the rock out of your way he gets the mountains out of your way so you know that old song god will make a way yeah when you pray well said god will make a way where the receives mean away yeah but he won't do it till you pray and then watch this i love this verse 10 he cuts out rivers among the rocks and his eye seeth every precious thing suddenly not is he only making a way for you out of where your bondage is and the problems you had but the bible says he now brings rivers suddenly the presence of god is there he cuts out rivers among the rocks where the war rocks now there's rivers in their place now the the refreshing comes the presence of jesus the anointing is flowing the rivers are there when you pray and then his eye seeth every precious thing suddenly the most precious things begin to come out of your lips and your heart and god sees the precious things out of you as you're praying and then he binds the floods from overflowing everything that is coming against you stops whatever floods the devil is sending god blocks them and the thing that is hid he brings forth to light meaning things you had not understood now you do that alone should get you praying just that alone now i want to ask you a question have you ever been on the highway in the car and felt something up the road danger of some sort or maybe or maybe you had a dream and you felt something is just not right how many ever felt those things what did you do about it no wait wait wait wait wait see god is so gracious to us that sometimes he will give us those little uh moments when the radar comes on and the bible says this about it proverbs 27 2 sorry 27 12. it says a prudent man proverbs 27 verse 12 a prudent man foreseeth the evil in other words god will show someone who is prudent someone who is praying someone who is alert evil that's coming and he hides himself he prays but the simple pass on the simple say ah it's just a feeling and they are punished so when you have a feeling of danger get on your knees and pray against it and if you do it'll not come near you if you don't it will prayer literally keeps your radar working if you're not playing that radar there's no there's there's no battery in it it doesn't work and when we pray not only is our radar functioning and it comes on god himself brings it on but more than that whatever evil will not come near us i'm on the 405 one day and were driving to los angeles and the gentleman driving me i said listen i feel danger ahead get off get off get off get out of the highway here in nuclear said just get off the highway we got off the highway and now i said get back i was saved from a terrible accident i'm on a boat out of a ormond beach with my brothers who wanted to go fishing and we get 40 miles out and i said get back get back now and begin screaming get back now to shore and they all got mad we just got here we want to fish i said if you don't get back i will jump and swim i don't want to be in this boat naturally i couldn't have swam it was too long so i was insistent they they get the boat back the man who owned the boat was from our church in occ was an italian young man and he was very very gracious he said listen if if pastor benny is is feeling this we gotta go and willie and sam and and and chris and all of them were so upset with me we we get back and an hour later the man calls me says how did you know how did you know i said what he said an hour after we got back the boat is underwater i said what happened he said when we were coming out he had hit some kind of uh something and a crack was under the boat and water was coming in the whole time were on that boat he said had you not said get back we would all be dead now what is it prayer my brothers they were prayerless that day big time i saved their life being on my knees see your radar comes how many are getting this put your hands answer by you pray and god will show you things you'll sense things but if you're not praying your radar is off how many are glad i'm coming i have come to at least just shake you up with that say amen i'm not done yet i have more now there's something about god you have to understand in isaiah 45 15 it says thou art a god that hideth thyself o god of israel the savior god hides why why is it sometimes god pulls away from us where his presence is not near us we feel we are back in that desert place well you see that's the best thing that can happen to you because when the lord pulls away he wants to bring you deeper that's the only reason he pulls away the more he pulls the deeper he is you see he's he he goes into a higher place think about yourself being on different plateaus like level one level two level three and on and euro you've been on level one too long and god says okay enough of level one he leaves level one oh lord where are you but he doesn't tell you i'm on level two get up there so as you seek him because now he's hiding you come to where he is now your life is richer so it's good when we go through that through the desert because we're just coming to a new place did you hear that so the bible says this is very important god hides to try us and when ever god hides here's why he hides now this is a good one god almighty wants to remove the flesh out of you and every time he hides and every time you seek the flesh dies so the more he hides the more you seek the less of the flesh remains so why does god hide god hides for one reason god hides to destroy the power of the flesh so hiding is wonderful because when god withdraws from us we seek him as we get closer to him on a different higher plateau the flesh that was you know acting up down there is crucified so don't get discouraged when god hides it's the best thing that happened and the word of god says something else not only does the flesh not only is the flesh crucified but let's let's look at job job 23 oh this is good job 23 verse 8 behold i go forward but he's not there i go backward but i cannot perceive him on the left hand where he does work i cannot behold him he hides himself from the right hand i cannot see him but he knows the way that i'm taking so why does god hide to bring the gold out of my life there's gold inside of you hello there's gold in your life and so it says watch this he knows the way i take i don't know where he is i go for i go forward here not there backward he's not there i cannot find him nowhere he's hiding but he knows where i am and it says when he had tried when he hath tried me when he has tested me because now i'm seeking him i shall come forth as gold how many of you want to see gold in your life then seek him when he's hiding now in second chronicles 32 verse 31 there's something else that god wants to do when he hides are you people enjoying this if you're not i'll never come back i'm just having fun with you second chronicles 32 31 says this and it talks about king hezekiah it says how be it in the business of the ambassadors of the princes of babylon who sent unto him to inquire of the wondrous done in the land god left him to try him that he might know all that was in his heart in other words when god leaves you he will reveal to you you he yeah come on is right brother thank you he will reveal to you what you're really like so god pulling away is a revelation of me the real me shows up and then i say oh no whoa with me i don't want this me so god pulling away is a revelation of my true heart and when i see my heart i follow my knees and i beg for deliverance like isaiah you know i'm undone unclean lips or like peter depart from the lord i'm i'm i'm a sinner we see our darkness when god hides and we cry for deliverance and so it says god left him that he might know all that was in his heart who's he isaiah i mean hezekiah so he would know what's in his heart god was revealing himself to himself so we'll command it that's why you see the bible says in jeremiah 29 we're to seek him with all our hearts all our hearts if you listen if you seek the lord with a half-hearted heart he won't listen because frankly half-hearted prayers go nowhere so in jeremiah 29 jeremiah 29 and in verse 11 beautiful promise here's what it says for i know the thoughts i think towards you god is talking to the jewish people in babylon at the time i know the thoughts i think towards you says the lord thoughts of peace and not evil to give you an expected end then you will call upon me and you will go and pray to me and i will hearken to you and you shall seek me and find me when you'll search for me with all your heart and then i'll be found of you and then i'll turn away your your captivity and i'll set you free from bondage so when when when we seek the lord like that all bondage leaves our life look i'm gonna let's just be raw okay every time you do not pray you open the door for the devil to come in when you don't talk to god the devil will talk to you that's been my experience and as a minister now for nearly 49 years when we don't pray we are allowing the devil to talk because our prayer keeps him silent and our prayerlessness keeps him talking we're not supposed to hear the voice of satan jesus said my sheep hear my voice not the voice of the devil but when do i hear the voice of my master when he hears mine when he hears my voice i'll hear his voice but when i'm not talking to my master the devil will be talking to me so it's time we really take this seriously i hear these wonderful people oh today mental health is a big problem in this country and i've heard people say you know i hear voices telling me to kill myself and all this stuff i think you poor soul you can fix it so quick you can fix it so quick just sit in the presence of god for an hour open your bible and talk to him and he will talk to you when he talks to you the devil will leave your mind and leave your soul because when jesus comes satan leaves the presence of the lord is all we need the presence of the lord is liberty you know where he is there is freedom and finding jesus is so easy really finding jesus is the easiest thing in the world you just sit there and wait that's easy you're not working and pounding the floor and begging you're not doing anything difficult you're just sitting there on your beautiful comfortably easy chair just waiting lord i'm here he knows you're there just wait well i don't know what to do well just play some worship and that worship music does nothing for the lord it does something for you god doesn't need the tape you do you know don't just sing to him this morning i did oh that was marvelous i don't need the tape i just sing and as i was worshiping with no instrument no music myself ah i'm telling you i felt tingling go through my body i felt like i was about to float if an earthquake took place it didn't bother me i'm serious you know i've never done drugs never done drugs never if i tried my father would have killed me we grew up in a very innocent world you know i've never smoked in my life never drank in my life never done drugs in my life i was too scared of my dad that fear kept me clean but you know i've had i've had high moments i don't think anything on earth can compare i have a friend named kent maddox and now he's a pastor up in alabama and he was a drug addict a drug addict for years and he got saved and came to our church became one of the pastors and one day under the anointing he's crying he said dark comedic he said there's no high like the most high i said why you say that he said i've done all those drugs i've never felt so high in my life he said there's no high like the most high i don't need the drugs i just need that blessed presence of the lord i would stand on my on platforms in my crusades and i would look at my staff and say there's nothing like it there's nothing like it i would beg the lord in tears take me home now don't let me come down because in the presence of the lord is joy oh joy that cannot be described peace that passeth all understanding i felt that peace this morning every day i pray for at least an hour and a half you say yeah you got time so do you i'm busier than you are believe me but you take the time you make it it's put some stuff out stop talking to your flaky friends so to be so real but i gotta be real stop watching all that news that's so depressing shut that tv oh get them off and just sit there on that beautiful easy chair of yours and just talk to the lord oh you'll come out like a giant the devils will run away from me when you show up that's a fact too now jesus said what and i'm almost done in luke 18 verse 1 it says don't give up if the answers don't come don't faint be persistent james 5 16-18 the fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much not the half-hearted stuff remember those scriptures write them down james 5 16-18 you all know it oh i think i need to read that for somebody who needs to see it in the bible then underline it maybe you haven't so look at verse 16 confess your faults one to another and pray one for another that you may be healed the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much and what the bible says here not only did jesus in luke 18 1 says don't give up but don't stop praying for the same thing even if you pray a thousand times you know elijah here we see in verse 17 and 18 elijah prayed more than once for the reign it says the last what was a man's subject to like passion and he prayed earnestly and then it says in verse 18 and he prayed again i heard a man oh some of those preachers they're not all there i tell you one guy years ago said any prayer you pray a second time you prayed an unbelief i said where did i get that where do they get that stuff if you pray a prayer twice the second times you pray an unbelief where is it elijah prayed seven times did he pray in unbelief on number two through seven of course not moses prayed for forty days the same thing over and over until god heard him and jesus said don't give up what does god say give me no rest you know who john arnott is the toronto blessing he used to work with me years ago he was my assistant can you believe that's been so long and he and i are sitting in the car one day in toronto cold night and he had a big german shepherd dog that dog smelled so bad i can still smell that dog and the dog was right between us both it's a small little car and i joined hands with john and we were at a parking lot and there's that dog's face right there and he had his mouth open and his tongue down ah but it didn't matter because god showed up even with the dog in there when we prayed and i said lord we both prayed lord we will give you no rest till you use us and the power of god hit that car dog and all because god loves when we pray like that i will give you no rest till you answer my prayer so we pray with persistence and so the bible says you know let me just give it to you deuteronomy in chapter 9 just write this down deuteronomy 9 18-20 moses prayed more than once had he not prayed and continued praying god would have killed his own brother aaron israel would have been destroyed because they had built a calf so in deuteronomy chapter 9 we read this amazing portion of the scriptures and moses says and i fell down before the lord as at the first in other words this is another time i fell down 40 days and 40 nights imagine a man praying that long i did neither eat bread nor drink water because of all your sin which you've sinned in doing wickedly in the sight of the lord to provoke him to anger i was afraid verse 19 says of the anger and hot displeasure wherewith the lord was wrath against you to destroy you and then verse 20 and the lord was very angry with aaron to have destroyed him and i prayed for aaron he understood when you keep praying you will have victory remember that side of initial woman who came to the lord and she said my daughter and he called her a dog if ever god called your dog would you still persist she did you know why i call her a dog because she was outside the cabinet but she broke she broke through the border remember there was a border back then which is god said don't go to the gentiles only to the lost sheep of the house of israel before the cross no gentile could be blessed and that woman broke through the border and when she did and she worshipped she broke through because she would not give up even though she she was not legally allowed to receive anything god said great is your faith please now we have to wait upon the lord isaiah 40 31 day that wait you wait he'll quicken you and while you're waiting something will happen inside of you listen to this and i'm done as you wait deliverance will come demons leave psalm 42 7 says something beautiful about this when you sit and wait upon the lord it says deep calls unto deep verse 7 psalm 42 and the noise of thy water spouts all thy waves all the eyeballs are going over me the lord will command his loving kindness in the daytime in the night his song will be with me my prayer and to the god of my life lord that's marvelous and because we've waited now we receive strength tremendous strength i could go on longer i don't need there's a need for it and i'm here to tell every one of you tonight dark days are ahead i don't want to scare you i'm just being real with you you see we don't we don't hear today much about death to self we don't hear much about the cross we don't hear much about the blood of jesus we hear about hope hope nobody talks about prayer hardly i was watching a guy on tv not long ago that was a long no goodness a few years back i don't watch tv anymore because i don't have cable or directv i cancelled it thank god and he was preaching i thought you know what i'm gonna i'm gonna torment myself and let him talk to me and he went on and on and on and the crowds were screaming and i thought you know what if i was uh sued by someone i can use that message if i was going through a divorce yeah it'll help me but if someone in my family had a serious illness that message falls apart real quick if some tragedy happens terrible something happens that message will fall apart real fast because they talk about hope you know believe in yourself and they stir you all up nobody says look to jesus they say look to yourself and you can make it god is with you all right fine makes me feel good but if there's a real problem that thing just falls apart when i got saved all i heard is give it to jesus look to jesus surrender to jesus that's why i'm still around because without the lord you and i
