Benjamin yes and I'm coming to you with a personal message through my friends and companions in ministry at this present moment the island of Puerto Rico is going through a incredible historic crisis as Hurricane Maria has ravaged our little island destroyed so many things at this moment people don't have any electricity there's no water there's no food our cities have been our underwater literal and we still don't know how many are dead the bilingual Christian Church of Baltimore we are here locally in Baltimore are making an effort because of Porto Rico who just sent that out to us I believe Friday or Thursday sent that to us we are endeavoring it's amazing just one week after just one week after a missionary day we are empowerment temple partnering to seeing ten missionaries to go work in the Caribbean and a go work in Puerto Rico ten missionaries are going to be going there the wonderful thing that I love about it is all ten of the missionaries that are going to be deployed number one are from Baltimore number two are from Latino churches in Baltimore and number three all ten of them that we are sending our puerto rican we're sending them because they know the culture they know the city they know the churches and they know the language somebody give God an ankle app appraised I made a covenant commitment with angel Nunez who is the Bishop of that area that we would in fact pay for six of their plane tickets to get there they are going to go do a three-week mission trip a three-week mission trip walking away from their jobs from their homes from their families to go back home and to really do the work and I told them that this is the hour that the body of Christ has to stand together the reason why i underscore we do not have of in the AME churches in Puerto Rico but we do have brothers and sisters in Puerto Rico and in ours like this we cannot be in bondage to denomination but realize that this is not about denomination is about kingdom that this is the hour that the body of Christ must stand up and step in while there are a lot of those who are collecting out waters and non-perishable items I think that those are good but I told you all in this series that I wanted to do something different and go another way so I'm not asking you to collect bottles of water at this time I am NOT but I want you to help me to send of those missionaries on to Puerto Rico this week they'll be leaving on Wednesday morning they'll be leaving on Wednesday morning I and I want them to be able to say that their african-american brothers and sisters in Baltimore stood with them in order to get this done and for them to be able to serve for us to buy each plane ticket round-trip is about 550 it's about 550 hour round-trip they are going to really be living in bare minimal circumstances are given that every Hotel in Puerto Rico is flooded those of you who have ever been to Puerto Rico in your life would you please just raise that hand for me you know how beautiful that island is and to imagine that most of it is in it is not habitable at this hour order in fact I'll make your heart Rindge I want you to partner with me if you will please help me to send these missionaries onto the front line to do restoration and to do repair not just two homes but also the hearts and the minds and spirits are one of the most riveting interviews I saw this week while I was away was from a lamenting crying grandmother who charge over her four children who just kept crying out loud in front of the camera where is God and when I tell you it did something to me and I want her to know and every person who's been rampaged by that Island God is with us even in seasons like this how many of you all know that God is still here and he's still in our midst as the chill please I'm gonna challenge you I'm gonna charge you to help me please some of you can out of your own largest buy a plane ticket on your own you can do that on some of you can do a one-way on your own and then the rest of us will make up the difference of that impact but one ticket is 550 but I'm believing empowerment temple that we're gonna be able to do something sizable and significant those of you that will partner with me would you please I'll reach for your checkbook even in this hour you'll reach for your checkbook if you're writing in are you writing it out to empowerment temple you're giving by a debit card in just one moment our servant leaders will be on this side they'll be on this side to help help partner up with you but I believe even before going into full throttle that there are those of you that can I do over and beyond the over and beyond I already told you how much the plane ticket costs already told you how many of them are we are endeavoring to do but I want to ask if you will those of you that will give something whether it's five fifty or whether you saying pastor I'm gonna buy your plane ticket out for missionary myself I'm gonna buy two I'm gonna buy one way or I'm gonna pay the baggage fee or whatever it is every little bit I will make something significant happen I want you to have it would you please come and bring it to the altar at this time and every person I'm asking for you to help me to do this empowerment temple you know what we do you know what is called of us in so I asked every person thank you so very much I pray for

I'll let you know on next Sunday what day it is that a Sunday in October we're gonna leave a church and let the women just pray in church but all of us as men are going to go pray outside of the

exactly what Sunday we're going I'm gonna have buses outside so that we can file up so that we can in fact be a model of christ-like ethics integrity and accountability but I cannot let our sons go out on the field by themselves without knowing that their prayer warriors who are standing in the gap with them at the end of service I'm gonna be calling you back because I want of the world to see men on their knees not in submission to a system of the men on their knees in the posture of prayer believing that God can still make a way ladies would you do me a favor would you give God glory for

little is the gospel of reparations God is going to make it up to you hallelujah mark chapter 4 now that you Reverend Brenda we're honored by your presence thank you so much hallelujah mark chapter 4 I want to illuminate a portion of Scripture in mark chapter 4 verses 35 through 41 mark chapter 4 verses 35 through 41 that day when the evening came he said to his disciples let us go over to the other side leaving the crowd behind they took him along just as he was in the boat there were also other boats with him a furious squall came up in the waves broke over the boat so that it was nearly swamped Jesus was in the stem sleeping on a cushion the disciples woke him and said to him teacher don't you care if we drown he got up rebuked the wind and said to the waves be quiet and be still then the wind died down and it was completely calm he said to his disciples why are you so afraid do you still have no faith they were terrified and asked each other who is this even the wind's and the waves obey Him you may be seated in the presence of our God I want to preach for a little while today this will not take me under this will not take me under would you look at the person beside you and tell them God wanted you to know today whatever you are dealing with it will not take you under this will not take me under my dear friends the irony of America's firm stance on immigration is that it ignores the fact that the early settlers had no papers and were illegal immigrants themselves those of us of African descent can't help but to laugh knowing that here it is that the notion of putting people out when the truth of the matter is that most of us were forced in I wish it could be brokered on the Congressional floor what happened in 1841 in 1841 the transatlantic slave trade had been summarily outlawed ignoring that law to protect our humanity there were those who refused to abandon the largest business of human trafficking in history one particular boat called the troubadour dropped anchor on the shores of the Ivory Coast in abducted throngs of our ancestors who were tending to their own peaceable communities they went from being a free to enslaved in one moment at the hands of people who had no rights to them might I say to you be on alert to those who illegally want to come into your lives just to get you tired of the vessel of mass incarceration called the troubadour had our proud people confined to the lower part of the ship for 30 days until an unscheduled storm started coming their way the storm this is 1831 found itself on a crash course collision with the slave ship called the troubadour admitted ladies and gentlemen at a hundred and forty five miles per hour after they are 30 days away from leaving the Ivory Coast's the storm absolutely obliterated at the ship and when it did so here this those who were on board in the hinder part the lower part of the ship they did something that history still has not given them enough credit for every person who was in the bottom of the ship when the storm hit is gonna blow your mind every person who was in the bottom of the ship survived skipper didn't mess you up everybody who was a capped or drowned but those who were being held against their will look survived it is give me to blow your mind and they swam to shore watch this with shackles on they swam to shore with shackles on and found themselves on an island that we now know as Turks and Caicos Turks and Caicos was founded what's this by people who swam ashore with shackles on both their wrists and their ankles and God didn't let not one of them drown it was a shipwreck I want you to hear this so you don't miss your shout it was a shipwreck that set them free otherwise they would have found themselves enslaved because the ship was headed to Cuba and then revin Beverly to South Carolina but because of the storm they never found themselves in bondage it was a shipwreck that saved their life ladies and gentlemen every now and again I know you can't see it while you are in it but you want to thank God for a storm that saved you hallelujah had it not been for that storm you would have ended up in a circumstance in a situation that would have completely messed up your life I want to pause right here because the enemy did expect or anticipate the praise that you get ready to give but can you give God glory for what pastor the storm that saved you you didn't hear what I just said I said would you give God glory for the storm that saved you Jesus himself was born into being a refugee not just a refugee but in evacuate not just any vacuum but a fugitive he was all three of those at the exact same time a refugee in a vacuum and a fugitive at the same time pastor how is this so don't forget that when Jesus was born the President signed an executive order for all male children under two years of age to be killed so his family fled into Egypt with no green card y'all don't like me this morning and when he fled into Egypt Joe Mary and Jesus when they flew in fled into Egypt they went seeking political asylum because male children were being oppressed when you are born again you must be careful that what you flee from what's this is a move of God that will in fact pull you closer to destiny I think I lost you please arrest assured that if you are anointed only 70 you gonna get it if you are anointed please know that when you figure out your destiny Satan signs an executive order to try to wipe you out if nothing is not trying to kill you you are not destined but if the glory of God is on your life know that there are forces of foot that are trying to steal your joy trying to make you lose your man trying to break your heart trying to mess up your family trying to lose your focus of your vision but I thank God if you can hear my voice it is evidence that would ever try to kill you this week found absolutely no success I didn't ask you how much money you had I asked are you still alive I didn't ask you whether you liked your job I just want to know are you still alive I didn't ask you whether you were happy at home I just want to know if you're still alive and if you can still hear my voice it means Satan fail that whenever he threw at you this week it was a other failure because God is still working for you in mark chapter 4 Jesus had been teaching all day he'd been teaching all day what's this at a public park and after teaching all day at a public park he then concluded that he shared with the disciples let's go to the other side rest assured that brother Doug whenever it is you have learned your lesson God won't let you sit stagnant whenever it is that you have learned what God has for you to learn people then shift you to another place from where it is that you are if you feel stuck it may be an indicator you're in remedial class that God won't let you leave until you got everything that God has for you if you are itching for a move make sure you have the lesson first because if you don't have the lesson you can drown before graduation and I thank God that many of you who are here today don't even know today is your graduation ceremony you have finished the course you have run your race and now it is time for your promotion jesus said let us go to the other side pastor why you shouting about that cuz he didn't say let me go to the other side when you are authentically anointed when you shift to another level it won't just be you but God is gonna take people with you who got the same heart got the same mine and have the right spirit what I find remarkable is that the disciples are in complete compliance with what God said God said to them through his darling son Jesus Christ let's go to the other side and they do not pause they don't say why they don't say exactly where but God because you said so we are now ready to go pastor why is this important why you pausing here is that they are obedient hear me empowerment temple they are obedient to the call of God and when they get on the ship and Jesus is with them what's this a storm breaks loose pest I don't get it what happens god help me to preach it right when I am obedient and still got a deal with the storm God maybe this is too heavy for the last five rolls better what happens when I do everything God told me to do and I know he's with me and inspired I got a storm in my life and I'm not talking about light precipitation somebody is flooding on my boat and I'm trying to figure out why is this happening to me when I'm being faithful to him it's a terrible burden being beaten while being obedient no life preserver jacket no emergency raft you just me God in a storm you ain't never been there I'm praying and still got a storm I help people and I still got a stall on my I get up in the morning read my daily breathe and still gotta stall I can't hear nobody i I forgave people that didn't even ask for forgiveness and still got a storm here's one you ought a shower I'm tired that edge still got a storm and water is getting on their boat waters getting on the boat and they remember Jesus is on board and I'm trying to figure out how I'm in this situation I'm faithful to him he's allowed the storm and nobody ever preaches about this and Jesus sleep in my store this is agonizing why is it agonized it's agonizing watch this coz I've watched him bless strangers and I'm close I'm in his inner circle god I can't hear no but I mean I eat with him hallelujah I sleep with him I walk with him and I see him bless strangers better than how she protects me you you really don't think imma be in my feelings I ain't jealous about that woman with the issue of blood I ain't tripping about the woman who's hunched over for all those years I ain't even mad about the two blind men by the side of the road but I wanna know what are you gonna do for those who stuck with you and now you are loud the storm to hear and they think they aren't model for us what it is that we got to do is that I'm in the storm water is in my boat I gotta go to where God is sleep I gotta go to where God is sleep and and I'm thankful that in the middle of the storm I still remember he's with me III just need 20 of you Ida just declare out loud he's still with me some of y'all that only mean nothing I'm hey can I give it to you another way ah hallelujah 9050 of you just to make this declaration an exclamation of faith or to declare out loud he's with me in my storm they recognize they recognize he is there the truth of the matter is ladies and gentlemen this is a point in fact the truth of the matter is the iPhone X Ravi was supposed to come out in August I phone X was supposed to come out in August but they ran into a glitch and the glitch that they ran they ran into with this groundbreaking technology watch this is that this iPhone X is gonna cost a thousand dollars people are gonna be in line uncle Charles with fixed income to get $1,000 phone maker colas gonna blow your mind it costs $1,000 watch this y'all it was supposed to come out in August they had to push the release date watch this to to the end of this month to early October and nobody has announced why and I want to tell you why I want to tell you why is that they realize in the final testing that this breakthrough technology that Samsung and Galaxy doesn't have is that the phone watch this does not have a home button that the way that you get the phone to open up watch this is face recognition this get ready to bother is come ready to mess you up and Apple did all of this testing but never tested it with a black face god I can't hear no matter and because none of apple's engineers are black y'all ain't saying nothin to me because none of the engineers are black they never tested it with a black face so when they enlarged the testing Pole and put the iPhone X watch this to a black face it didn't recognize it and as a consequence it would not open I can't hear nobody but here's where Apple had to push the timeline bag why pastor is they said we can't put it on the market until it recognizes a black face god I wish y'all knew how to shout huh I think there's some of us that need to understand that there's some stuff God and gon do until he sees my face when he sees my face in worship when he sees my face in expectation when when he sees my face giving him glory no wonder stuff ain't opening up to you you got your head down low looking like you drank a gallon of prune juice but he said lift up your head o ye gates and lift it up God wants to see my face and all the more I want to see his I'm gonna go a step further ladies and gentlemen yes that they're on this ship they're being obedient the storm watch this is now coming on the boat Jesus is slain and it is clear the storm here this is not passing over Psalm is not passing over and here's out what God gave to me while I was in prayer and study in Indianapolis this week here's what God said he said Jamal shows 7:30 because a lot of them have misdirected prayers right what do you mean they got misdirected prayers is because they are anointed they assume that everything that's trying to kill them is a person sometimes when you are anointed the thing that is trying to kill you is not a person is a thing and that thing is a storm how is something trying to kill you and it's not a person is a thing but that thing is a storm I'm talking about a bill it ain't a person but it's is trying to kill you God I'm talking about a tumor it is not a person but it is trying to kill you I'm talking about a carburetor yes it's not a person it's a thing I'm I'm to might your allergies y'all ain't saying nothing to me I'm I'm too much a structure to my a system until my a credit score I'm tumba a legal case I'm talking about a record I'm talking about a text message I'm talking about a picture I'm talking about an administration I'm dumb bout hey close I'm talking about and God says I don't care what the thing is I'm not gonna let it kill you the feeling that plagues your mind when you are going through and there is no assistance is being offered what's this is that your man begins to entertain when you are under attack and feel like you are getting ready to die with the enemy impregnates into your thinking is nobody cares hallelujah so you become insulated and and young and you begin not to shut down and you begin to close people off because you convince yourself nobody cares I'm in this and even if they care they can't do nothing about it and I appreciate the transparency of the disciples because they articulate what many of us have only thought God do you I'm drowning in this God I can't hear nobody yo y'all they never been there where your soul wanted to ask but your mouth didn't have the nerve God do your time I'm give me lose this house said I'm I'm give me lose my mind I'm getting ready to lose my job God and what God does next is novel and innovative at the exact same time because Jesus awakens and Jesus awakens and the thing that messes me up y'all is the only time in scripture I can not ever find God sleep is when I'm in a store did y'all you what'd I just say the only time he only take naps sip when I'm going through building shut his eyes till it looks like I'm between the devil and the deep blue sea for real this when you sleepy you gotta be kidding me this when you wanna lay down for a minute do you even care what the doctor just said do you even care did you rip my stuff off and they asked him with one voice God do you care and Jesus stretches and yawns comes up from the hinder part of the ship and he does something that I'm not sure you paid attention to he starts speaking to wind and water pastor why you telling me this I'm telling you this cuz he never answered them I want to know do you care about what I'm in and watch this he will never even respond he ignores me and starts talking to was killing me I got the wrong church here god I wish I was in my own church I feel like I'm somewhere else God told me to tell those of you who are at the 7:30 so those of you watching online when you don't hear God talking that don't mean he ain't speaking he ain't talking to you cuz he dealing with was trying to kill you you wanna thank God he's got a poverty over stuff [Applause] [Music] hallelujah please forgive those of us who were worshiping cuz you just got confirmation in your spirit Lord thank you for speaking of my bills I can't hear nobody thank you for speaking of my mortgage thank you for speaking of my legal issues thank you Plus speaking of my what have I been trying to kill me he said peace to the wind and say be still to the water god help me he said watch this I see what y'all trying to do to these disciples and I hereby place you under apostolic arrests you cannot move another inch because I take it personal some of y'all don't know witness shout what do you mean I take it personal because you forgot mister water then while you were trying to drown them the mistake you made here's I'm rolling with them and because you trying to drown them it means you trying to drown me too can I tell you that whenever the enemy misses with a child of God God takes it personally touching not my anointed and do my no [Applause] I'm coming around the mountain I feel those glory coming hallelujah thank you for what you gettin ready to do and God said whenever it is that you go on in the spiritual warfare she said talk to things like they are people god that's the best thing I don't sit all day he said talk to things like they are people she said whenever I created has years y'all didn't see what I just said everything God created has ears you want me to prove it to you she said say to the mountain get out of my way if the mountains didn't have ears they wouldn't be able to hear the authority and the per man when you shout today God say you ain't talking to no person you talk in the principalities you talking to star holes that you talking to issues you better tell all of them say no weapon that is formed against you shall be able to prosper I know you're real quick to grab that neighbor by the hair and tell them I take authority over everything trying to stress you your car will not break down you didn't hear what I just said I said your car will not break down the plumbing in your house will not fail your roof will not collapse I speak everything that I got a power over everything in the earth every single god I change it Oh about it if you ain't wrestling with none

down seeking whom he can devour and the Lord nominates have you considered joe lord help me sometimes you only want God to speak your name Lord consider somebody else for this don't don't consider me
