Two Seasons At The Same Time Bishop John Francis

are you ready for the word of the lord amos chapter 9 amos chapter 9 verse 11. i'm going to try my best give us what i can and if you would stand for the reading of god's word it says in that day will i raise up the tabernacle of david that is fallen and close up the breaches thereof and i will raise up his ruins and i will build it as in the days of old that they may possess the remnant of edom and all the heathen which are called by my name seth the lord that do it this verse number 13 which is our focus scripture for the month behold the days come seth the lord that the plowman shall overtake the reaper and the shredder of grapes him that soweth seed and the mountains shall drop sweet wine and all the hills shall melt are you with me on that another version says the time will come sift the lord when the grain and the grapes will grow faster than you can heart can it be harvest are you hearing what i'm saying verse 14 says and i will bring again the captivity of my people of israel and they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them and they shall plant vineyards and drink wine thereof they shall also make gardens and eat the fruit of them fifteen and last and i will plant them upon their land and they shall no more be pulled out or pulled up rather out of their land which i have given themself the lord thy god are here excited about that [Music] watch this verse 13 again behold the days comes of the lord that the planet shall overtake the reaper look at that and the shredder of grapes him that soweth seed and the mountain should drop sweet wine and all the hills shall melt that means a process that should have taken a long time is going to happen overnight i want to talk to you about this two seasons at the same time look at your neighbor say neighbor you all sound like you're tired today i don't know let me try again look at your neighbor say neighbor two seasons at the same time clap your hands give god praise father we thank you for your word let your anointing come help us to preach like never before let people hear from you today we give you glory and thanks in the name of yeshua the christ the son of the living god someone say amen on your way looking on your way sitting down rather look at your neighbor say neighbor the blessings you're gonna have it's gonna happen two seasons are gonna come at the same time amen you may be seated hallelujah you all all right we're looking at the book of amos the book of amos when you read the book of amos it's really about the judgment of god um if you've ever took time to look at the book of amos and read it from beginning it could come across as very depressing and somebody said to me say oh my gosh why would you choose this particular chapter for the month of april but i believe that this book reflects of actually what's going on right now book of amos god promises that he would not completely destroy the house of jacob because of their consistent disobedience moving into idolatry the bible lets us know that god is angry and he's bringing his judgment upon them during the babylon captivity a great number of the israelites were destroyed yet god promised to save a remnant it doesn't matter how bad situation is not everyone's bad god always has a remnant look at someone say god has a remnant and so as we look we can see that god promises to restore not just israel but he says i'm going to restore the fallen house of david he not only says i'm going to do that but i'm also going to repair the broken places of the fallen house of david i'm going to re not only repair but i'm going to restore the ruins that means everything that fell apart god says i'm going to restore it now please understand the children of israel were uh taken out of um their country came out of jerusalem and they were brought into babylon everybody say babylon think about babylon that you have to understand that nebuchadnezzar took the children of israel and brought them into babylon and if you know anything about the strategy of the babylonians they first of all did something by taking them out changing their appetite their food and food has a lot to do with desire if you want to affect someone's desire tamper with their food if you all don't believe me give some children some fizzy drinks sweet drinks and you see how they behave hello not only that not only we gonna change their appetite but we're gonna change their names names has a lot to do with identity one of the things that you've got to recognize is that in biblical times they didn't just call people by names because it sound good names had a lot to do with their destiny so they changed their name changed their appetite and then the next thing they did was change their belief system move them away from serving jehovah and made them serve god of stones and god of wood are you with me on this and so the children of israel was now brought into a place of captivity can i talk about captivity a little bit because captivity is is is is a an interesting type of prison uh prison will lock you and can find you in a particular place but what captivity does is give you a level of freedom but guess what happens while you're free we're gonna mess with your mind we're gonna psychologically control you and not make you understand that you've been controlled talk back to me you're too quiet what we're going to do is simply this we're going to we're going to give you a level of freedom but what happens is we're going to set up a system a system and this is what this was nebuchadnezzar he was a great thinker because what he did was he took things out of jerusalem that they were familiar with and brought it into their environment to make them feel comfortable but change their identity change the way they thought what they were thinking and what he did was put them in a system that would control them i want to talk a little bit about that because i don't think people understand it's one of the challenges that we're all dealing with today we're dealing with systems that are trying to control us uh uh all right all right i'm just trying to find my people because i i got something to really to release in this house someone say systems we're talking about belief systems and you've got to understand there are legislations that have been placed upon us to make us think a certain way believe a certain way and it's a system all right they are educating you in a system they're making you conform oh god i feel good to assist them it's called captivity it means i make you feel like you're free but really i have psychologically captivated your thinking and you will not do nothing until you can submit to the system all right can i talk to you you're looking at me because you're still look like you're lost see that's what's one of the problems right now here in the country we we having a problem it's called brexit all right and with brexit now has released a spirit over the country it's a spirit that's over now now government don't know how to function anymore we have different things that's supposed to happen in our country to function we're trying to build a school they won't even look at schools at the moment because right now here's the problem that they have uh we were a part of a european system and the problem is now do we come out of the system and when we come out the system and in fact there was uh uh an agreement in terms of the election that we should come out of the european system but now we have to now learn how to set up our own systems systems of trading systems of working with different countries that we've never worked with and there is a fair now because when you belong to a system before and now you have to move and find your own way of doing things a certain fear comes upon your life and things are saying to you you will not function because guess what this is the only system i know oh i'm preaching better than you're talking back to me [Applause] and so now what's happened is when you've been in something for a long time like europe uh-huh you're used to a system that guess what i can now go wherever i want to go i can go to one country in the european country but now because we're about to set up a new system the theory is now how do we control and become a system that's different from the european system because we don't want their system to control us and here's the problem because when you're building a thing so long why are you all so quiet when you've been in a thing so long and you've been conditioned to a thing it's hard for you to get out touch your neighbor say it's gonna get better it's gonna get better it's gonna so one of the things is god promises restoration and one of the challenges that we have when we're dealing with restoration when we've been in a place of bondage when we've been in a place where the enemy has kept us and things have not gone in our way we become a person that conforms to something and even when god says it's your time for deliverance you can't get delivered because the system is now a part of you and you are now a part of the system oh god i'm preaching i'm preaching that was what's wrong with the children of israel oh they came out of egypt but although they came out of egypt egypt was still in them and so now god is saying i'm going to deliver you from a system you got there because of disobedience but i'm getting ready okay somebody don't understand what's prophetically about to happen in the service i am on an assignment something's about to shift in this service your amen is too quiet whoever had controlled you whoever had captivated your thinking to stop your progress the holy ghost sent me here to release the word your season is about to change [Applause] look yeah sit down and i'm i'm just talking i'm i'm hey i'm just talking are you with me on this now you you've been hearing me preach for a long time and here's the problem because i almost sound like a scratch record because when i say certain things i'm saying because i want you to understand how the bible works our bible is written from an agriculture perspective and if you've been in this church agree culture i agree agree agra as it is come from the latin means field agree culture culture culture a way of doing things agree cult cult cult we hear that word cult we get scared because cult you think is a bad word but the real word cult means to take care bishop how comes a cult means to take care cult that's what they do they take care of you they take care of you to the point till they take care of your mind until you stop thinking for yourself they set up a cult agriculture now everything uh that happens in terms of agriculture is linked with economy the economy you think money brings prosperity but what brings prosperity to a country is agriculture in other words agriculture deals with seed fruit harvest animals and clothing with all these things brings a great economy if you have a bad harvest you have a bad economy money is not where prosperity comes but that's what you think but you can have money and when you have money guess what if the economy goes down your money is worth nothing but a paper in fact money is only a trans transaction that's used to make an agreement it's a promissory note money has no power unless there's a great economy and what makes a great economy is agriculture you all don't know that it's true that's why jesus said in the book of judah on may 28 when he talked about uh his good treasure do you know what he called his good treasure he called it rain why does he call rain good treasure doesn't call gold or silver it's good treasure he says rain is my good treasure why is rain the good treasure because if you have no rain you have no harvest if you have no harvest you have no crops if you have no crop it's not good at agriculture if it's not good agriculture then you are having a problem with the economy and when there's a bad economy there's a recession and so he calls rain he says rain is my good treasure are you with me on this and so the bible's written from agriculture and he's trying to express something and he's saying this and using this terminology here in amos chapter 9 verse 13 he says behold the days comes and declares the lord when the plow man all right the plow man uh will overtake the reaper the one who's plowing is going to overtake the reaper now now what happened is he's saying the reaper is there yeah pulling from the harvest he's just received but the plow man had already plowed long time ago but just as quick as the harvest came it seems like a season turned around real quickly are you with me on this so here's here's what the message bible says amos 9 verse 13 he says things are going to happen so fast that your head will swim one thing fast on the heels of another in other words it's called divine acceleration it means that god's gonna speed up some things oh y'all don't look like you're ready for it he's gonna speed up some things in your life that has been taking a long time to manifest [Applause] some of the holiday neighbors say he's talking about me he's talking about me now now now i come for you i came for you i'm all right i'm all right i came for all of you all you that there's some people yeah and there's somebody i came for you see the problem that you have is your head does not know how much faith is in your spirit let me try that again your head does not know how much faith that you have in your spirit all right let me explain something about you because your faith your faith is your undercover secret and there is a conflict between your spirit watch this and your head your head works on logic your head says certain things happen because certain things are done it works on the sabri cerebrum of your brain it says if you do this and you do that you should get this result because it's logical are you hear me but your spirit says i'm not controlled by [Applause] logic your spirit says oh god i'm gonna preach this thing you don't need one to be plus one to make two your spirit says one shall chase a thousand it changes mathematically two should put ten thousand to flight who am i talking to in here so my my my logic that works with my senses is is in conflict with my spirit because my senses say i gotta see it my senses says i gotta touch it my senses says i gotta smell it my senses says i gotta taste it are you hearing me but faith says you won't see it and the fact you don't see it it's an evidence you have it because faith is substance of things hoped for and it carries an evidence that's not seen and there are some folks looking at you because you keep jumping up and shouting and they can't understand what you're jumping and shouting about and especially those who know what's going on in your life they think why are you shouting when all hell's breaking loose in your life but what they don't realize i am not being controlled by my senses i'm controlled by what's in my spirit my spirit says it's going to happen my senses say i don't see it ah oh god do you hear me but my spirit says this my spirit says that eyes have not seen yes i wish i had my i'm trying to look for a church in here ah ears haven't heard neither has it entered into heart the things that god has prepared but revelation comes through my spirit and let me tell you when it's in your spirit what you see don't make sense because what your senses does is attach you to what's happening in the earth but what your spirit does it brings you above the earth it moves you watch this out of time and shoots you into eternity in other words things you've been praying for you know in your spirit it's done i'm trying to find somebody who understand and you're walking around abakashiyanda with things in your spirit all hell's breaking loose but something in here says something's about to change something's about who am i preaching to who am i talking to i want you to scream like you lost your mind shout until you make the devil know things are about to change [Applause] i don't have to see it because i feel it in my spirit something is about let the witches hear you something some fig [Applause] [Music] [Applause] oh god i feel this i'm trying to [Applause] [Music] listen what he said listen listen listen listen when i you know the spirit world is not tangible you don't see the spirit you feel the effects of the spirit. [Applause] so what god does by faith he teaches you to work in another realm called the unseen realm and in the unseen realm you are not controlled by oh time lord have mercy here time does not control you time come here come here come here come here let me let me help because they're gonna people see this he lives in time but time does not control him in the earth he might be subject to time but time has no power over him because when god made you the bible says in ecosystems he made everything beautiful in its time also he put the world in the heart no that's the bad translation he put eternity in their hearts so that no man can find out what god does from the end to the this is eternity he puts it in you and nobody know who you really are you're walking through time [Applause] going through hell in time but every now and then you take a peep of what's inside of you and that's why you're the devil's biggest nightmare because he sets things in time to confuse you to slow you down to put you in depression but every now and then you do this [Applause] oh god i step out of time into eternity i shout for money that i ain't got yet i shout for houses that i ain't got yet i shout for healing that i ain't got is there somebody in here you better scream like you're going [Music] crazy [Music] and the problem is since they say y'all making me hard the problem is you are rely you are relying on feelings and when you rely on feelings that's called carnality because you were never designed hear me to rely on feelings when god made you he took dirt to make you but dirt is only housing you your body is not you your body is only the thing that houses you that's when you that's why you can't die your body dies but you don't die your spirit and what god did when he made you he went he breathed ruach breathed the breath of god he breathed his spirit in you and so the real you is what's in you and it's the one thing that satan can't work you out she says say i'm i'm trying so so the problem is he tries to get you to live in the central world where you respond by your senses everything you see depresses you everything you hear depresses you but when you come out of your senses and hear what's going on in your spirit [Applause] [Music] i'm going somewhere so here's the problem here's the problem i'm almost there here's the problem this is the problem you're facing because we're in a law system a system that certain things are supposed to happen according to law system of what goes up must come down a law system that works according to genesis 8 22 there's a law called seed time and harvest says while the earth remained there would be seed time there'd be harvest there'd be cold are you looking at this genesis 8 22 it says cold and heat summer winter day and night shall not cease are you hearing that in other words the law is there will always be day and night could you imagine right you went to bed and you woke up and it was still night you'd be confused didn't it because there's a law that everything must have an end a season uh-huh we've been may enjoy for a night but joy coming in the morning anything that goes over that season is either that god changed it or it's illegal are you with me on this everybody say seasons so so so so seasons seasons while the earth remains a season so how do we get to seasons we have what you call time time is made up of seconds let me see if i get this right they were really smart at brixton seconds minutes hours days weeks months years seasons every time leads up to a season but god does not live in time he lives in eternity and he's not controlled by time however in the earth we are put in a law called the law of seed time and harvest and when it deals with crops and harvests there are seasons and times certain things are supposed to happen but god says in the book of daniel chapter 2 21 i am in charge i can change the times and i can change the seasons i know i created everything to work in a certain way i know that the sun must come at a certain time because the whole earth responds to time and season see if it rains you all get depressed because when it gets rain you feel weary when it comes sunny you start smiling uh-huh all right when it gets cold you start shriveling up and you start want to be by yourself a spirit of isolation comes upon you because you just want to just yeah when it gets hot when it really gets hot you go crazy you can't handle the heat it's too much are you with me on this we respond and we need because you are made from the earth you are part of the earth everything that happens in the atmosphere you respond if the sun comes out it affects you it helps your you get vitamin d so god does that but he says i change times and i change seasons when i decide that things are going to speed up i don't need your permission because i'm the one who made everything in the first place oh god is there someone here me today yeah because what you got to understand that god creates i'm going ready to preach and when he creates he creates atmospheres and climates and cultures and if he decides i'm changing the time it doesn't matter what the clock says if he says it's this time it's this time he's so much god that when he wants to change things poor gesture was fighting and joshua said listen i need some extra time god joshua said all right son stay over there stand still we're going to change the whole time moon stay oh god something's about to change for somebody and even today scientifically there is a unanswered question about a day that got lost in science because when god shifts the whole of creation he makes sure that whatever you need it's going to happen what am i preaching about oh i might as well preach because there's some people in here actually see they said i'm not feeling it i'm not i'm not concerned about your feeling because you know this thing about divine acceleration you know nothing's moving in my life it's just stagnant i'm gonna help you i'm gonna help you i'm gonna help you i'm gonna help you i'm gonna help you i know you feel like you ain't moving nothing's happening but i here to tell you by the spirit of god [Applause] what's about to happen is about to blow your mind [Applause] i'm gonna preach in a minute i'm gonna preach a minute no witch no sioux sail they can have your hair your picture on the altar casting spells and all foolishness when god says it's your time i need about 50 people who know what i'm saying when he says it's your time it is your time [Applause] [Music] it means that at this moment you step out of time into eternity ah and you're no longer strict hit or restricted by time in other words time has no power over you it means you're walking in divine acceleration and it means supernatural ability that comes from god is about to hit your life things that was not humanly that was not humanly possible is about to be pushed grab your neighbor pull them like you pull them out the seat say neighbor you're unstoppable you're unstoppable yeah yeah you're unstoppable i come to make the announcement there is a spiritual momentum taking place a shift is happening in the realms of the spirit the behind your sunder every obstacle that was in your way get ready god is about to shift it everything that was designed to block you is now going to be shifted i need 50 people who believe what i'm saying shout at home shout in your bathroom shout in your car [Music] someone said i'm going through warfare i understand the warfare satan don't fight people who ain't going anywhere he fights people who's on an assignment and i come to tell you wake up your spirit stop looking at what's happening around you it's called a system and the system is designed to captivate you and to make you be a part of the system that's controlling you now i'm almost done now here's the problem a lot of you a lot of us feel like we're in a season i want to find out i'm talking to the right people um it's called awaiting let me try now let me try on the choir it's called a waiting season it's called a waiting season the waiting season is a very complex season because you're waiting for something to happen that has not happened in time but it's already happened in eternity [Applause] watch what happened i'm done i've got one more thing to say and i'm down um i was preaching at brixton and just before i was coming out holy ghost says aerodynamics um you know i go on a plane i don't like flying you all don't believe me because i'm always on the i just have to get to where i'm going i some guy they want to invite me to fiji fiji you know what fee fifi now y'all don't understand i've had invitations to australia and i'm having australia yeah yeah it's called down under [Applause] that didn't invite me but i don't like flying you in a plane for 24 hours up there 24 hours let me help you let me help you i get on the plane because i have to get on the plane but it's my revelation i don't believe planes is the will of god for my life you all don't believe me i got scripture to back out my dad said don't say nothing if you don't have no scripture the lord said lord i am with you always up here not there not up there y'all miss that you're me oh okay it's all right to laugh come on so i get on a plane and when i get on the plane there's a thing called aerodynamics it's the way air moves around things it's the rules of aerial dynamics explains how an airplane is able to fly yeah and they say because of time there are four things that make a plane fly yeah number one lift the other thing is called weight and the other thing is thrust and last but not least drag all of those four things makes a plane move because uh when you look at an object moving up it has to have momentum because we are living in what we call an atmosphere of gravity yes and gravity pushes everything down so it's called aerodynamics and what happens when all of these things happen the plane now goes up in the sky catch this and when it goes up in the sky it's able to fly because the engine the tail the wings and everything that makes up a plane is balanced in a way to sustain the plane in the air and the air now works to keep it up there and it's called aerodynamics are you with me and the thing is about when a plane is in the air and the plane is in the ear when the plane is in the ear you know what happens when it's going real good you feel like you're not going anywhere you're gonna get the revelation in a minute there is a moment when the plane is flying don't you notice there on the plane and all the heroes this is like hello you want a coffee and a drink and everybody walking and everything and you're balancing you know you're not you're not doing this you're just you know it's it's all smooth and you would you're almost fooled like you're on the earth and you're not going anywhere because at that level [Music] you're gonna get the revelation [Applause] it feels like nothing's happening in your life and that's what the devil makes you feel most of the time you're not going anywhere it's called aerodynamics god has shifted things around you so that you're sustained but you feel like you're not going anywhere and then all of a sudden when i'm on the plane all of a sudden and then put up again and this is what really frightens me what really finds me is when i see the heroes this run and put away what they were surfing and they go sit on their seat i don't mind when they say fasten your seat but we're on a little turbulence it's cool but when they start moving and sitting down and locking themselves in this is serious this is serious and when they're now in the plane and they locked up i'm like oh my gosh but the only reason why you know you were going somewhere was the turbulence y'all gonna get it y'all gonna get it the tablets that came in your life came to let you know you're going somewhere now if you ain't going through no tablets sit down don't make no noise but if you're going through tablets god told me to tell you you're going [Applause] [Music] somewhere give high five to about three people say it with the power of the holy ghost say neighbor i thought i wasn't going anywhere but all the trouble i've been through is a sign i'm going somewhere satan does not attack people who ain't going nowhere somebody hold your neighbor say it's because i'm going somewhere [Applause] he's fighting your children fighting your home fighting your family fighting your job fighting your money fighting your health but i come to make the announcement i'm going somewhere [Applause] [Music] [Applause] one more thing and i'm done one more thing one more one more one more one more thing so now aerodynamics if i say aerodynamics the plane knows how to balance by thrust by weight by momentum and everything around is now being subjected now i'm having an easy life because aerodynamics but only it changes when turbulence come but turbulence only comes because you have hit what we call a air pocket between a hot ear on one side cold here on the other side and what happens is the plane is caught in the middle of a hot hair season and a cold year which is called two seasons it's called crossing from one season to the next and the turbulence is a sign you're no longer staying in oh god jesus i wish we we where's my shouting people where's the people who i'm talking to marco shia you ready i'm ready let me get my key so so i'm not thinking god you ain't with me what happened with this word divine acceleration i don't feel like i'm going somewhere god says you're moving and then you say god if i'm moving i watch this i can't walk now because of the turbulence i'm stuck in my seat i'm now trapped in a seat belt can't move like i used to confined to a situation and i'm saying god how long am i going to be here he says just stay through the turbulence because after you cross over you're going into another look at your neighbor say neighbor neighbor i'm crossing into another season well i stopped by here to tell you you're about to hit two seasons at the same time god said i'm restoring the years that the power of the world had taken from you grab your neighbor by the hand saying neighbor say neighbor don't wait till the battle is over shout now cause in the end you are gonna win where's my praises where's my praises say hell [Music] say hey grab your neighbor one more time say turn my mic up i feel a holler grab your neighbor say neighbor i know you're going through turbulence i know you feel like you ain't going nowhere but for 60 seconds i want you to praise god because you just hit a new season and every time you go through a turbulence you hit another season every time you hit a rocky patch you just hit another season and god told me to tell you get ready for the harvest get ready for the harvest now grab your neighbor say neighbor you got 60 seconds shout for your new season you got 60 seconds to scream you ain't shouting grab your neighbor and say neighbor that was the wrong neighbor find somebody want to praise god grab your neighbor say neighbor all the hell you've been through all the lies the enemy put on you you need to shout because by tomorrow by tomorrow things are gonna turn in your favor shout out [Music] i can't hear the drum machine hold on hold on grab your neighbor say neighbor say neighbor i want you to shout i want you to jump because the lord said you're about to land and you're about to land in your season of blessing shout shout [Music] out [Music] i gotta stop [Music] find somebody who believes what you believe say neighbor this is my safe by tomorrow everything in your life is about to change shout shout [Music] [Applause] look at your neighbor say neighbor say neighbor this next shout is not for you it's a shout for your family that's gonna turn around shall

shout out oh [Applause] [Music] strength [Music] the devil wants you to feel like you're going nowhere because you don't feel the momentum you don't feel like something has shifted you feel stuck you feel lost i started to ask god god are you sure this is the word you gave me i know you said it's divine acceleration but everything that's moved fast has been bad [Music] i'm not lying what do you mean he said john it's momentum it's aerodynamics he says you feel like you're going nowhere and it's amazing you sit on the plane and listen to this they say the flight's gonna take eight hours to philadelphia and when i get to philadelphia this is what the captain says ladies and gentlemen we have got here an hour early you know why the air the turbulence pushed us what was designed to frighten me pushed me what was designed to hurt me pushed me what was designed to kill me push me they said i've got their hour early and i remember one time it happened to me when i got there early we had to sit on the plane because the people on the other side wasn't expecting us so early they said ladies and gentlemen be patient we got to sit on the plane a little while until someone opens the gate because we got here early [Applause] sometimes when you get there early you still have to have patience because although you got there you still have to wait because the gate wasn't open they weren't expecting you somebody's about to get there early hi wreck family and friends as you know we're dealing with this virus that's gone around and you know the government has asked that all
