WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.320 You have every physical body, this earth, this solar system, this galaxy, the galaxies of galaxies, 2 00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:14.320 the universe of universes. He's upholding every atom, every molecule, by the word of his power. 3 00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:20.560 It means that you're in his hand. And Jesus said, you're in the palm of my hand, and no one can 4 00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:25.200 pluck you out. This is something you gotta believe. This is something you gotta say. 5 00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:31.440 Welcome to the City Light Church podcast. Thanks for joining us today, as we look into God's 6 00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:37.280 Word and discover the hope and truth that he has for us. If you want to connect with City Light 7 00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:44.000 Church, feel free to visit us at citylightnyc.com, that's citylightnyc.com. 8 00:00:44.720 --> 00:00:50.480 Pastor Boyan Jansik and his team believe that the power of the Holy Spirit is already working 9 00:00:50.480 --> 00:00:56.000 in our hearts and minds. As you listen to today's teaching, remember that you are deeply 10 00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:02.480 loved by God, that you are surrounded by His grace, and that He has a real hope and a future for you. 11 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:10.880 So I'll be honest, I love what the Lord does. Sometimes I do wish He would do it differently. 12 00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:16.400 It'd make my job a little bit easier. We might have a higher retention rate, I don't know. 13 00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:31.280 But I wouldn't quench what He's doing, what He just did in me, what He did in my wife, what 14 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:40.880 I see Him giving. And Paul, he said, I pray, Paul said this to the Ephesians. He said, I pray that 15 00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:48.160 you would know the love of God which cannot be known. How do you know something that cannot be 16 00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:58.000 known? Well, that first word for no is actually experience. I pray that you would experience 17 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:06.000 the love of God which cannot be merely intellectually known. So you have to get it in your 18 00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:18.560 ear. And all it requires is you just letting those walls in that hardness. I know it's crazy out 19 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:27.360 there. So you put on the armor, not the armor of God, but the protect myself from all the wolves 20 00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:33.360 around me, suit of armor. You put up walls, but I'm telling you those same walls will keep God out. 21 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:42.000 You come into the Lord's presence, let the walls drop, like they dropped when the Trump was 22 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:50.640 blown after seven rounds around Jericho. And don't be afraid, men, especially you. Don't be afraid 23 00:02:50.640 --> 00:03:02.320 to have a soft heart before the Lord. Jesus said that you wine can't go into old wine skins. You 24 00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.600 know what old wine skins are? They're tough. They're rigid. They're hard. You know how they used to 25 00:03:07.600 --> 00:03:14.400 get the old wine skins? Pliable again, they'd rub oil in them. Do I have to go into the symbology? 26 00:03:15.920 --> 00:03:27.600 They're rough. Extra virgin olive oil. Holy Spirit comes in and he smears you. And then that old 27 00:03:27.600 --> 00:03:34.160 rigid wine skin of your heart becomes soft and pliable again. And it's what we need today. 28 00:03:35.600 --> 00:03:43.200 Hallelujah. And you need an experiential Christianity. I highly recommend God encounters. 29 00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.400 They do I have to behave like some of the things I'm witnessing? No. Don't compare your experience 30 00:03:51.200 --> 00:03:55.840 with anybody else's. And go ahead and have it in the privacy of your own home. 31 00:03:57.040 --> 00:04:02.320 I mean, you could have one here. I don't mind. The Lord doesn't mind. But go ahead and have one in the 32 00:04:02.320 --> 00:04:09.360 privacy of your own home. Open up your mouth to the Lord. Cry out and say, Lord, I will not let go of 33 00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:15.360 you until you bless me. I want to know you. Look sometimes you just get a good tired. Lord, I don't 34 00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:24.240 want an itty bitty Christianity. Yeah. I don't want an intellectual. The world doesn't need that. 35 00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:29.840 That's not what's going to get us through this year. It's got to be a mighty, 36 00:04:29.840 --> 00:04:38.240 rushing, windy experiential. I know that I know that I know. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. 37 00:04:38.880 --> 00:04:47.520 I pray the Holy Spirit becomes so real to you that you can stand on his word, but also you know 38 00:04:47.520 --> 00:04:56.320 that you know that you know. John wrote, he said, these things I write to you that you may know 39 00:04:56.320 --> 00:05:02.160 that you have eternal life. He's talking about, yes, the word of God, but you gotta know as the old 40 00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:10.480 timers used to say, in your inner nowhere, in that place, that's deep, your spirit. I question 41 00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:16.720 my kids about their salvation all the time. I put the gospel in every prayer. The dinner prayer 42 00:05:17.520 --> 00:05:23.280 we include thank you Jesus for dying on the cross for our sins. And now Victor is nine and a half. 43 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:28.000 And so I'm just, I just want to know where he's at with the Lord. I mean, he comes out all the time, 44 00:05:28.640 --> 00:05:34.080 so I'm asking him questions. And I said, son, do you know that you're saved? He says, yes. 45 00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:41.280 I said, how do you know? Is it because Jesus died on the cross for my sins? Great. Great answer. 46 00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:47.680 That is really, that alone is enough. But then I just pressed the little more. I said, how else 47 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:52.240 do you know? I said, do you, do you sense the Lord with you? He said, you don't want a child, 48 00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:59.200 says it. He goes, yeah, and he points like this. He goes, I just know. I just know. Is I in school 49 00:05:59.200 --> 00:06:13.600 all day? He's with me. I just know. Hallelujah. You have in you a hope. You have in you a glory. 50 00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:21.200 Hallelujah. Hallelujah. 51 00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:38.160 Jesus. Can somebody give me a tissue? I can't use my, my rag. Anybody? Oh, thank you. 52 00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:44.560 Always uni with the, and look, she always gives, ask for one tissue. They're the kind of family 53 00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:53.040 that always gives a double portion. I want to, I want to invite everyone who's going to Guatemala 54 00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:56.960 this Wednesday to come on up to the front. We're going to have just the commissioning prayer right now. 55 00:06:57.440 --> 00:07:08.960 So, we've been ministering in Guatemala since 2009. This makes 15 years. Over the last 15 years, 56 00:07:08.960 --> 00:07:14.240 we have helped city light church. When I say we, that means you, that means you tithers who have come 57 00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:19.600 to that place of maturity where you give the first 10th. Wow, look at this team. You've come to the 58 00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:27.600 place of maturity where you give the first 10th of your income to the Lord. We've been able to build 59 00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:33.600 over 40, not four or four zero. And the reason I say over 40, we used to say the specific amount 60 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:38.400 and then we actually, we had it all our paper and the last trip, we lost track. So I don't want to say 61 00:07:38.400 --> 00:07:44.320 42. I don't want to lie before the Lord, but it's 40 plus churches slash community centers. 62 00:07:44.960 --> 00:07:52.320 I'm not crying about that. I just, it's nice when you're ministering and the Lord is ministering to you. 63 00:07:56.320 --> 00:08:03.680 And we go, and we preach in the churches, this is the indigenous Mayan people when we go to Guatemala, 64 00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:11.360 the Yishio people, direct descendants of the Maya. They all recently came to the Lord in the 65 00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:18.720 last 40 years is when we missionary started going. And so this is a region. I mean, you feel like 66 00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:25.120 you're in a different planet. And we have a team of, they're not all up here, but it looks like 67 00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:32.640 all of them are up here. 26 fiery city lighters. This one's they were going and we're going to have 68 00:08:32.640 --> 00:08:44.960 the greatest trip we've ever had. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. We're not going over to play games and 69 00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:50.560 hand out little tracks and play. We're going in there to see the glory of God. We're not just going 70 00:08:50.560 --> 00:08:54.240 to be building. We're holding services in the night. People are going to get saved. They're 71 00:08:54.240 --> 00:09:00.320 going to get filled with the Holy Spirit. They're going to be set free. The children are going to be 72 00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:04.240 minister to. They're going to have the seat of the eternal gospel planted in their heart. 73 00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:10.080 And much more than I could name. That's why we're praying right now. Will you stretch your hands 74 00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:16.240 towards us? We leave this when they keep us in your prayers. Prayer makes the difference. 75 00:09:18.880 --> 00:09:27.680 Father in the name of Jesus. A heavy heavy anointing upon every single one of us we pray in Jesus 76 00:09:28.400 --> 00:09:34.160 that you would be round about us like a wall of fire. Also your word says that would favor you 77 00:09:34.160 --> 00:09:43.440 will encompass us round about as with a shield. Hallelujah. That you would butter our steps. God your 78 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:48.880 word says that we will open our mouth and you will fill it that we would speak your words of life 79 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:57.520 with your authority. We are Christians which means little Christ. God that we would be your hands. 80 00:09:57.520 --> 00:10:05.040 We would be your feet. We would be your mouthpiece. Father let the fruit of this trip have far 81 00:10:05.040 --> 00:10:13.440 reaching effects in Jesus name. And may that region never be the same again in Jesus name. 82 00:10:14.400 --> 00:10:22.640 Just point at your hands at him and just bless him three times. Be blessed. Be blessed. Be blessed. 83 00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:29.280 Hallelujah. Give him a big hand because we honor them also. You may be seated. 84 00:10:31.280 --> 00:10:38.000 Always going to be a fun eight hour bus ride to the bar with you guys. Hallelujah. 85 00:10:38.400 --> 00:10:49.360 One of the ways you can gauge the health of a church is you have a mission strip and the thing 86 00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:55.200 fills up like in a week or however long it took and we had to set a cap because we can't accommodate 87 00:10:55.200 --> 00:11:05.360 anymore. And so part of the way you gauge is that you're not just consumers. You know and you 88 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:11.120 come to church with an attitude with what have you done for me lately. And if the product is no 89 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:17.200 longer serving me I'll just switch products. But they're looking to pour out. They're looking to 90 00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:22.800 give and really thank you. It's going to be 22 years for city light. Thank you. I mean I just say 91 00:11:22.800 --> 00:11:30.480 I thank you because it would get pretty old for me if I didn't see that. Thank you. Thank you 92 00:11:30.800 --> 00:11:37.120 for trusting in the Lord to maintain the fire. Thank you for being givers. Thank you for being 93 00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:44.000 kingdom-minded. Not being of this world. How it would be very very difficult. Pastor James right 94 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:50.480 can you imagine if we had to me stretch your hands there's four of us going. And none of them 95 00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.800 could even pay for it. We had to pay for them to go. We had to raise money for them. And you 96 00:11:54.800 --> 00:11:59.440 so forth. I mean did you see what you can just see the radiance of the Lord on that whole line of 97 00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:13.120 people. I'm grateful for that. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Well the title of my message is God is going to 98 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:22.480 see you through. God is going to see you through. I have been recounting the many times God has 99 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:30.320 seen me through. And one thing I'm convinced of is that he's going to see you through. He's faithful 100 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:41.840 to his word and he's on your side. And I will just say this many times the biggest enemy. Many 101 00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:51.760 times. Well it's us because you can know some aspects of God's nature and God's character but if 102 00:12:51.760 --> 00:13:00.560 you don't appropriate it by faith then it'll do you no good. And I do see sometimes believers just 103 00:13:00.560 --> 00:13:08.000 get a little lack of daisicle with actually exercising their faith. They just get hohumish. 104 00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:16.880 And they allow their lips to stay crazy glued guerrilla glued together. And your faith isn't going to be 105 00:13:16.880 --> 00:13:22.480 active unless you're speaking. I just want you to know that. How do you get saved? The Bible says if 106 00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:29.360 you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart if you confess with your mouth 107 00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:34.640 the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead you will be saved. 108 00:13:34.640 --> 00:13:38.800 Yeah? That means that faith is one half in your heart and one half in your mouth. 109 00:13:40.080 --> 00:13:45.920 So it does a Christian no good to just quietly believe. You got to speak these truths out of your 110 00:13:45.920 --> 00:13:50.480 mouth and Satan hates that because that's actually what gets the job done. And when you start doing 111 00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:56.160 that he starts attacking your mind, starts telling you you're being silly, fanatical, weird, goofy, 112 00:13:56.160 --> 00:14:06.240 whatever it is. But I'd rather be that way and see results. Amen. So you got to speak out of 113 00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:13.600 your mouth. Declare the promises of God over your life. Let me just start off with this. First 114 00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:35.840 John 5.4. First John 5.4. For whatever is born of God, how many of you are born of God? Amen. 115 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:41.120 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the 116 00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:52.080 world. Our faith. Your faith is going to get you through. And how is faith released with your 117 00:14:52.080 --> 00:15:02.400 speaking? So you get to decide and nobody can do this for you. Oh man, I really feel you right now. 118 00:15:03.680 --> 00:15:08.800 It's wonderful. You know, sometimes you just minister by faith and today the Lord is just dumping 119 00:15:08.880 --> 00:15:15.760 his presence out. And I feel his love for you. I feel his compassion for you. I feel when I say 120 00:15:15.760 --> 00:15:21.520 God is going to see you through. I feel he's going to see you through. Would you please just cooperate? 121 00:15:22.640 --> 00:15:30.560 And so agree with what his word says about him. Agree. Not internally and meekly quietly out loud. 122 00:15:31.280 --> 00:15:37.840 I actually do this. I open your mouth and say, God, I believe you're with me. God, I believe you're 123 00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:43.040 on my side. Whatever comes out of your spirit, I'm the head and not the tail. I'm above and not 124 00:15:43.040 --> 00:15:49.680 beneath. Lord, I'm more than a conqueror through him who loved me. You make all things work together 125 00:15:49.680 --> 00:15:57.200 for the good for me. Take authority over the devil. The devil is not a concept. He's actually a person 126 00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:06.160 and entity with a personality who hates you and he comes to steal, kill and destroy. So it is okay 127 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:13.120 to take authority over him. Not only is it okay, Jesus highly recommends it because he did it 128 00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:18.640 himself. If Jesus had to address the devil, how much more do we? 129 00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:25.920 Yet many Christians don't ever do that. It's like there's two camps. Those that never ever 130 00:16:25.920 --> 00:16:28.880 addressed the devil and then the other ones that all they do is talk to the devil. 131 00:16:30.640 --> 00:16:34.000 Again, you can be a healthy Christian who's in love with the Lord and talks to the Lord and a 132 00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:40.160 time says, Satan, the blood of Jesus is against you. Your power's broken over my life. This family, 133 00:16:40.160 --> 00:16:45.680 this house. I draw the line with the blood in Jesus name. Say those words out of your mouth. 134 00:16:49.680 --> 00:16:54.880 Congratulations. You've been invited into the faith walk. That's why Jesus was the ultimate 135 00:16:54.880 --> 00:17:00.320 faith preacher. Everywhere he went, he preached faith. He examined people's faith. 136 00:17:01.280 --> 00:17:05.760 He commented on people's faith. Can you imagine if Jesus right now came up and down the aisles? 137 00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:09.920 And he would say, oh, you have little faith. 138 00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:18.560 To some, he said, great is your faith. To even others, he said, what you don't want to hear. Where is your faith? 139 00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.800 It's like you have a faithometer. No faith. 140 00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:33.840 Because your faith is going to see you through. And you'll know what your faith is working by what 141 00:17:33.840 --> 00:17:40.720 you're saying. And when you're in that pressing, sometimes you can begin to curse your own life. 142 00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:46.640 And that's when you got a zippet. And maybe you've said something that goes against the word of 143 00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:53.920 God. Just go and repent to the Lord. Say, Lord, I spoke in my sincere stupidity. I'm so sorry. 144 00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:01.840 I rendered those words powerless. Lord, that was because the Bible says death and life are in the 145 00:18:01.840 --> 00:18:06.400 power of the tongue. And then that love it will eat the fruit thereof. And then begin to speak life 146 00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:18.320 over yourself and agree with this is, this is vital. And this walk of faith, I want to just tell 147 00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:25.120 it's forever. Hallelujah. I've recently come into a place in my life 148 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.480 for myself personally, not for the church, for the church we're still believing for a lot of things. 149 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:36.560 But in the natural, there is nothing that I'm like, there's no natural thing that I want. 150 00:18:37.360 --> 00:18:43.760 God has blessed us, God has rescued us, God has delivered us. He's just, there is nothing. And then 151 00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:49.200 I think back and I would think many times to the Lord, Lord, if I only got into this place, 152 00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:55.440 then I could relax. And really what I meant was not walk by faith. Because you know when the 153 00:18:55.440 --> 00:19:02.080 battle is raging, I mean, I can tell you that's the good spot. And it is. And it's wonderful to be 154 00:19:02.080 --> 00:19:06.720 in the fire because there's a fourth man in the fire, but also at the same time, you're in the fire. 155 00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:14.720 You know, it's like on one side, it's so great on the other side, there's a reason why we're saying, 156 00:19:14.720 --> 00:19:23.760 Lord, get me out. But then he got me out and then he blessed me and he blessed me and he blessed me. 157 00:19:23.760 --> 00:19:31.600 And then what I find that really, no matter where he brings me and my cup overflows, 158 00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:39.600 I still have to walk by faith. I still need him. I'm so dependent on him. And it'll be this way 159 00:19:39.600 --> 00:19:45.360 until I'm on the other side of heaven. That's how he designed it. This is how we get to know him. 160 00:19:46.320 --> 00:19:50.880 And we're supposed to walk by faith and up by sight and daily overcome the world. And this is the 161 00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:57.280 victory that overcomes the world, our faith, hallelujah. You all are right with that. I'm sorry to 162 00:19:57.360 --> 00:20:02.000 bust your bubble. I'm sorry if you think that if you just won the power ball, if you just got that 163 00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:08.240 promotion, if you then you can just, you can serve the Lord from your lofty throne. It's never 164 00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:15.520 going to happen. You might be sitting on a throne, but you're going to walk by faith. Hallelujah. 165 00:20:17.040 --> 00:20:19.680 And walking by faith, you know, you can do it from a place to rest. 166 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:30.640 Yeah. The only time it's not rest is when you haven't used your faith in a while. 167 00:20:31.840 --> 00:20:36.960 Then you got to rev up that old engine. And it's kind of like not going to do the gym for a while. 168 00:20:37.600 --> 00:20:41.920 And you know what's waiting for you that first day back. Pain. 169 00:20:42.560 --> 00:20:49.760 But just like there's muscle memory, there's faith memory. And you'll plug in very much quicker 170 00:20:49.760 --> 00:20:57.120 than you think you will. Amen. Let's go to Genesis. Just say this. God's going to see me through. 171 00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:08.560 Genesis 22 12 through 14. This is the story of Abraham, who for many, many years believed for 172 00:21:08.560 --> 00:21:15.440 this child of promise Isaac. And then Isaac was given to him. And then he received the word of 173 00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:23.120 the Lord to climb up the mountain and sacrifice his one and only son. And Abraham moved in obedience 174 00:21:23.120 --> 00:21:31.040 and faith. And at that moment on the top of the mountain with the altar already built and the 175 00:21:31.040 --> 00:21:37.360 branches for the fire already collected and Isaac laid upon the altar. And he said, do not lay 176 00:21:37.360 --> 00:21:42.960 your hand on the lad or do anything for him. God is speaking to Abraham. For now I know that you 177 00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:52.080 fear God since you have not withheld your son, your only son from me. Then Abraham lifted his 178 00:21:52.080 --> 00:22:00.560 eyes and looked and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its thorns. What are the 179 00:22:00.560 --> 00:22:10.080 chances? Have you ever seen a ram or goat move? There's these awesome videos. Watch them on YouTube 180 00:22:11.760 --> 00:22:17.760 where goats and rams go up a nearly 80 degree incline. You know when the Bible says he makes my 181 00:22:17.760 --> 00:22:22.160 feet like hinds his feet like deer feet. We're talking about these animals. You don't you don't 182 00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:27.120 see them act this way so much if you go to Pennsylvania for us. But they are agile. They are 183 00:22:27.120 --> 00:22:34.080 nimble. They are quick. They'll go up. The greatest climbers couldn't go up. What I'm trying to 184 00:22:34.080 --> 00:22:40.720 say is a ram doesn't typically get caught in the thicket. This is the provision of the Lord. And they 185 00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:49.040 needed now that Isaac wasn't going to get sacrificed. They needed a sacrifice. So Abraham went and took 186 00:22:49.040 --> 00:22:56.320 the ram and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. And Abraham called the name of the 187 00:22:56.320 --> 00:23:06.000 place. The Lord will provide Jehovah gyra as it is said to this day in the mount of the Lord it 188 00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:14.240 shall be provided. This is so much a part of God's nature and his character that he revealed it in 189 00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:22.240 his own name. It's not a pretty song. It's who he is. He's gyra. He's the one who provides and he 190 00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:27.680 always will. It's not something he has to become or pull out of his pocket. It's who he is. 191 00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:35.040 Hallelujah. And so by the way if you have a need just knowing this and just mentally acquiescing 192 00:23:35.040 --> 00:23:39.280 oh that's nice. That's a good point pastor brings up. It doesn't mean it's going to be real to you. 193 00:23:40.800 --> 00:23:46.960 You got to say it out loud. You got to in the time you know when it really works well in the time 194 00:23:46.960 --> 00:23:53.920 of crushing when you get that bad email when you get that ugly text when it seems like there's 195 00:23:53.920 --> 00:24:00.560 a hornet hive in your head and you're just you're getting stricken and then the devil comes and says 196 00:24:00.560 --> 00:24:06.080 you know well why don't you just escape the way you're used to escape out of pain but instead 197 00:24:06.080 --> 00:24:12.400 you say no no no Lord you're coming through for me. Lord you'll never leave me nor forsake me. 198 00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:18.880 Lord you are Jehovah gyra my provider. Hallelujah and do you notice when he showed up 199 00:24:20.320 --> 00:24:31.440 he seems to always show up at that time not before not during at 11.59 that's just his style. 200 00:24:32.560 --> 00:24:38.400 You notice when he parted the red sea it wasn't right away it was like when the Egyptians 201 00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:41.040 they could practically feel the breath of their horses on their back. 202 00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:46.960 Why does he do that? To torture you more. No no nothing. 203 00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:52.000 Hallelujah. 204 00:24:55.760 --> 00:25:02.160 The 11.59 God in the midnight hour Paul and Silas began to sing and praise God 205 00:25:03.120 --> 00:25:09.840 and in the midnight hour he came through he comes in the midnight hour when I think about all the 206 00:25:09.840 --> 00:25:16.400 midnight hours he'll come through for you some of you right now you need to know God is going to 207 00:25:16.400 --> 00:25:20.880 see you through you're saying I hear dong dong I'm about to turn into a pumpkin it's about to strike 208 00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:26.560 midnight he's going to come through for you will you believe that I'm trying to get a little bit of 209 00:25:26.560 --> 00:25:33.040 faith out of you provoke you a little bit some of you just need to say I'm like yeah no no no he's 210 00:25:33.040 --> 00:25:44.880 coming for me he's coming through for me. Hallelujah. Last year right about this time after living in 211 00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:54.000 this condo in Williamsburg a very nice arid dry condo we just started to flood every time it would 212 00:25:54.000 --> 00:25:59.280 rain little rain medium rain big rain it was like a geyser coming out of a hole that didn't 213 00:25:59.280 --> 00:26:07.280 use to exist and then the pressure of the water just had various some pumps all working ejecting 214 00:26:07.280 --> 00:26:13.200 the water out so we kept flooding over and over and over again had a parade of plumbers coming 215 00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:18.000 through it was kind of like the woman with the issue of blood who went to all these doctors and 216 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:23.920 none of them could help her we went to all these plumbers but just spent money and yay 217 00:26:23.920 --> 00:26:29.120 barely I said to the none of them could help us except we got wetter and wetter and broker and broker 218 00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:34.800 and then Lord came and delivered us 219 00:26:37.040 --> 00:26:42.800 God is this house in Long Island and then we used to flood when I say flood I mean it was like one 220 00:26:42.800 --> 00:26:47.840 or two inches doesn't sound like a lot but this is it was a two floor condo and we were all sleeping 221 00:26:47.840 --> 00:26:55.520 on the lower floor so the carpet we had carpet I know a very 1980s thing but we wanted to make the 222 00:26:55.520 --> 00:27:02.560 basement cozy got all drenched and you just don't want to I mean no amount of water is a good 223 00:27:02.560 --> 00:27:06.480 amount of water so it was one or two inches but every time it rained who wants that I want 224 00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:11.920 but then in September one month after we moved I don't know if you remember there was that 225 00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:16.080 storm in New York City and there was certain parts in New York City that flight at Williamsburg was 226 00:27:16.080 --> 00:27:22.400 those certain you know all of Williamsburg is a flood zone we were two feet underwater at a 227 00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:27.120 contractor there remodeling the place and he sent me a video he said is this okay I'm like no 228 00:27:27.120 --> 00:27:33.280 that is a very not that is far from okay well what I'm trying to say is in the midnight hour 229 00:27:33.280 --> 00:27:38.240 God God is out I didn't even know what was waiting for us I mean really if I had lived through that 230 00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:42.240 our mattresses would be soaked our beds would be soaked it took months to get it back to how it 231 00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:47.600 should be try pastoring a church in New York City and having that in the back of your head 232 00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:51.440 I'm wondering where your kids are going to sleep where they're going to do homework how are you 233 00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:59.760 God came through I think about this space you know one of the greatest hindrances to church 234 00:27:59.840 --> 00:28:08.000 plants like ours is space and so while I would love our own building and that's what I'm believing 235 00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:14.160 for and contending for I'm very very grateful for this space where we can have a separate floor for 236 00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:24.880 the children 25 foot ceilings hundreds of seats but you know we have a lease to renew all the time 237 00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:30.080 and the people that we rent from very awesome but they don't need us to rent from them 238 00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:36.560 they really don't they only do it I mean out of the goodness of their heart and I because I 239 00:28:36.560 --> 00:28:39.360 because I believe every time it's time to renew their lease the Lord just 240 00:28:41.600 --> 00:28:48.800 softens their heart touches them and earlier this year the lease was up for renewal and I had 241 00:28:48.800 --> 00:28:56.400 enough going on Pastor James is such an awesome man of God in many many capacities as a teacher 242 00:28:56.400 --> 00:29:03.920 as a preacher but as an executive pastor I mean just smokes the house and just took as really 243 00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:08.640 every administrative thing took it on his back and he said would you like me to keep you I said just 244 00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:14.640 let me know how come please I'm going this way I'm thinking about this you and he's so great with 245 00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:24.240 taking on burdens and it was back and forth back and forth you understand how not fun it would be 246 00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:27.200 if they just said we're not renewing your lease what are we going to do go to the little house 247 00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:33.040 on the prairie church and go to five services I had a friend God bless them he lost his space he 248 00:29:33.040 --> 00:29:37.840 was preaching in the subway preaching in the parks God bless them but he's a new church plan we're 249 00:29:37.840 --> 00:29:48.080 22 years and I don't want to be in a story apart in a bouncy castle and then the word of the 250 00:29:48.080 --> 00:29:57.040 Lord came two more years hallelujah a little more breathing room Lord now get us a building 251 00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:04.960 do you believe he's going to come through for you thank you Jesus 252 00:30:08.800 --> 00:30:09.840 Hebrews one three 253 00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:23.760 Hebrews one three number one he's the God that'll cause you to have a ram caught in the thicket 254 00:30:24.400 --> 00:30:28.960 he's Jehovah gyra how many of you right now you lift up your hand you say I know what you're 255 00:30:28.960 --> 00:30:34.080 talking about he came through for me he supplied he prepared look at the hands around here 256 00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:45.120 he doesn't run out and what he did yesterday he'll do again for you today hallelujah 257 00:30:49.040 --> 00:30:54.160 you see the ministry of Jesus and you see through the gospels what he was often doing was 258 00:30:54.160 --> 00:31:07.360 provoking people to get to a place of faith hallelujah when you're feeling crushed just know he's 259 00:31:07.360 --> 00:31:17.280 with you and that's the best time it when I say the best time in the time it matters the time 260 00:31:17.280 --> 00:31:22.480 it works the time it'll be recorded forever in heaven what you said and what you actually believe 261 00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:27.280 when it was hard to save the Bible thing it was hard to believe the promise of God and you said 262 00:31:27.280 --> 00:31:33.920 in spite of all unbelief and that swirl in my head I believe Lord you are good you are on my side 263 00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:39.760 you will provide and keep saying it and then that voice comes again and tells you your nuts keep 264 00:31:39.760 --> 00:31:47.920 saying it your friends think you've lost it keep saying it do you know you can say it and not be 265 00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:54.000 weird about it you can say it and not be religious about it you can save conversationally out loud 266 00:31:54.800 --> 00:32:00.720 you can say it in a prayer to the Lord you could you can sing it on the subway it's New York City 267 00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:04.800 they you know no one's going to think you're crazy comparatively speaking if you just sing it 268 00:32:08.400 --> 00:32:14.960 Hebrews 13 who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of his person 269 00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:23.520 and upholding he's upholding all things by the word of his power 270 00:32:25.440 --> 00:32:31.200 when he had by himself purged our sins sat down at the right hand of the majesty on high 271 00:32:31.200 --> 00:32:37.120 but I want you to focus on that one sentence in that passage he's upholding all things by the 272 00:32:37.120 --> 00:32:44.080 word of his power all things that share that you're sitting on you're very physical body 273 00:32:44.800 --> 00:32:52.720 this earth this solar system this galaxy the galaxies of galaxies the universe of universes 274 00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:58.640 he's upholding every atom every molecule by the word of his power it means that you're in his hand 275 00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:04.960 and Jesus said you're in the palm of my hand and no one can pluck you out this is something you 276 00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:10.480 got to believe this is something you got to say this isn't a good truth that you just need to 277 00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:17.440 nod your head to out of your mouth needs to come Lord I believe I'm in the palm you're going to 278 00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:26.880 see me through because you died on the cross for me you love me Jesus said the father has taken the 279 00:33:26.880 --> 00:33:32.720 time to number every hair on my head and Jesus said you're in the palm of my hand no one can pluck 280 00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:39.680 you out now the greatest encounter I ever had with the Lord I was 17 years old I've had various 281 00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:48.720 God encounters once again they're highly recommended and the good news is you don't have to compare 282 00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:55.600 yours to anyone you don't even have to talk about yours but just get to that place where God is 283 00:33:55.600 --> 00:34:02.720 in a theory in your head do you know he wants to meet with you yeah he wants to show himself to 284 00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:12.800 you if you let go and yield not be afraid you know it's a scary thing that's why when I preach on 285 00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:18.240 the baptism of the Holy Spirit making point after point after point from the book of Acts everybody's 286 00:34:18.240 --> 00:34:22.720 on fires and present I make an altar call for the baptism the Holy Spirit and then I see 20 people 287 00:34:22.720 --> 00:34:29.120 come up but I preach the 300 and I see the look on the face huh because all of a sudden the 288 00:34:29.120 --> 00:34:37.920 rubber is going to meet the road it's about to get real that's something you can't fake in other 289 00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:42.320 words you're crossing over from the flesh into the spirit it is scary that's why every angel that 290 00:34:42.320 --> 00:34:48.000 appears as fear not because crossing over is this scary thing but go ahead and take the bungee 291 00:34:48.080 --> 00:34:55.600 jump in Christ watch what happens on the other side a God encounter 292 00:34:59.920 --> 00:35:04.960 I mean how more biblical can you get you know what every character in the Bible had in common 293 00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:09.600 they had a God encounter there's not one who read something in a book and went you know what I 294 00:35:09.600 --> 00:35:18.160 believe what's written in a book and that's no they had a God encounter my greatest one I'll make it 295 00:35:18.160 --> 00:35:23.040 quick because I've shared it so many times but some of you just need to hear I was 17 years old 296 00:35:23.040 --> 00:35:29.600 I was saved for one year I went on a youth retreat upstate New York and then between the 297 00:35:29.600 --> 00:35:35.840 morning and evening session this sweet pastor sweet youth pastor he just said does anybody want 298 00:35:35.840 --> 00:35:41.680 to worship the Lord and I along with 5 6 7 I can't remember how many other teenagers said sure 299 00:35:41.680 --> 00:35:47.680 and we went into the hotel room and he's there strumming his guitar just one guy on a guitar 300 00:35:47.680 --> 00:35:52.880 and I was the last one to come in and I went to sit on the floor Chris Cross applesauce 301 00:35:53.920 --> 00:35:59.680 with with my legs crossed and as I'm coming down on the floor the moment I touched the floor I 302 00:35:59.680 --> 00:36:05.200 felt like I was in another place and I began to weep and I began to shake that encounter lasted 303 00:36:05.200 --> 00:36:09.680 for four hours it felt like anywhere from five to ten minutes when I came out of it my whole 304 00:36:09.680 --> 00:36:15.520 shirt was wet my pants were wet the carpet and the hotel room floor was wet from my tears and we 305 00:36:15.520 --> 00:36:22.560 said what did you see the moment I came down I saw myself in a giant palm in the palm of the Lord 306 00:36:26.080 --> 00:36:30.000 I began to shake uncontrollably you know you don't become a different but you're still you with 307 00:36:30.080 --> 00:36:36.400 your same thoughts but I recognize something very special was happening and most of the sermons 308 00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:43.600 that I had heard thus far was you're saved you're forgiven but you need to work on this you know 309 00:36:43.600 --> 00:36:48.560 it was always presented from an angle of you you guys still need to achieve and I understand 310 00:36:48.560 --> 00:36:55.040 we're all works in progress but you can present things one way hopefully the way we presented here 311 00:36:55.040 --> 00:37:00.880 is in a it is finished way but still hang on to Jesus and allow him to do the work from the inside 312 00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:07.040 out without you feeling like a hamster on a wheel all the time so that's all I had heard so as 313 00:37:07.040 --> 00:37:12.560 the hand is being lifted up to his face I'm bracing for impact I'm terrified because what I think 314 00:37:12.560 --> 00:37:18.560 God is going to do is reprimand me I'm 17 I'm saved from one year certain sins dropped right 315 00:37:18.560 --> 00:37:23.760 off of me had a lot more work to do something and here we go he's gonna he's gonna here's the list 316 00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:28.880 it's gonna be a divine scroll that's gonna roll out and he's gonna tell me all the areas I 317 00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:37.920 need to adjust in my life and he brings me up to his face and all I sense is love and I see a big 318 00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:45.040 smile and then I become undone then I'm how I it's like when Paul said were you in the body you're 319 00:37:45.040 --> 00:37:49.840 out of the body I do not know I didn't know I just know I was becoming I've never ever experienced 320 00:37:49.920 --> 00:37:55.440 anything like this before really since had other kind of God encounters but this was this was 321 00:37:55.440 --> 00:38:03.360 special special and then the only rebuke right right away really the only thing he said to me 322 00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:12.080 that better think about it's the only thing he said to me he confirmed some things but not with 323 00:38:12.080 --> 00:38:18.800 words he would just show me then pictures but he just said yes the question why do you worry 324 00:38:20.080 --> 00:38:26.240 you worry too much why do you worry and you know how silly that sounds when you're overwhelmed 325 00:38:26.240 --> 00:38:31.600 currents of glory going around your body and you're sitting in a giant palm the the size of a 326 00:38:31.600 --> 00:38:44.240 New York City block feels very funny preaching that today 327 00:38:44.240 --> 00:38:52.960 why do you worry 328 00:38:57.280 --> 00:39:03.920 you're in the palm of his hand he's going to see you through will you just say that he's 329 00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:10.880 going to see me through John 637 worship team come on up 330 00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:15.440 John 637 331 00:39:18.480 --> 00:39:25.840 when you're going through it when you have what's known as that evil day when you're in a tough spot 332 00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:35.440 if you'll notice there is a voice that comes and says something like he did it before but he won't 333 00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:46.080 do it again and really your cast off you're rejected if you're not going through it right now you 334 00:39:46.080 --> 00:39:52.080 don't know what I'm talking about but there's a voice that comes and says no he has he's forsaken 335 00:39:52.480 --> 00:40:01.360 me things have changed he came and wrote it about on my life the glory has departed you know rejection 336 00:40:02.000 --> 00:40:09.200 is a common satanic theme over and over and over again that's why the Bible has to do so much with 337 00:40:09.200 --> 00:40:16.000 now you are approved now you are accepted you who are far off are brought near by the blood of 338 00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:24.960 Jesus all that the father gives me will come to me and the one who comes to me I will buy no means 339 00:40:24.960 --> 00:40:33.280 cast out you are accepted you are approved and God will see you through he won't forsake the 340 00:40:33.280 --> 00:40:45.760 work of his own hands hallelujah Psalm 2710 when my father and my mother forsake me if even 341 00:40:45.760 --> 00:40:52.480 that were to happen then the Lord will take care of me I want to just pass out communion right now 342 00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:57.520 and just hang on to the communion elements please say this out loud the Lord will see me through 343 00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:11.360 hallelujah oh thank you baby thank you Jesus 344 00:41:11.680 --> 00:41:19.680 just hang on to your communion elements even if you're hungry I know it's tempting just hang on to 345 00:41:26.560 --> 00:41:34.800 thank you Jesus cover your people reveal yourself to your people strengthen your people 346 00:41:35.360 --> 00:41:42.480 thank you for the finished work of the cross some of you as you're holding the communion 347 00:41:42.480 --> 00:41:47.760 elements you need you need to tell the Lord Lord help me to get more serious about you 348 00:41:50.320 --> 00:41:58.720 you need to I say this would love I really do if I didn't care listen if I wanted to play the 349 00:41:58.720 --> 00:42:04.240 games and I didn't care I could so easily play the game didn't and be very liked and be very 350 00:42:04.880 --> 00:42:10.880 well thought of and you feel real good in the service and then real life would hit you and you 351 00:42:10.880 --> 00:42:17.520 will get crushed so I say this would love some of you some of you you're you're frying your brain 352 00:42:17.520 --> 00:42:25.360 scrolling through tiktok you're frying you're you're you're medulla a blongada your cerebra 353 00:42:25.360 --> 00:42:31.680 your cerebellum is roasted and toasted as you're going through Instagram mindlessly it's become today's 354 00:42:31.680 --> 00:42:41.280 crack pipe and what it's all it's breeding is a love of the world and a love of the wicked world 355 00:42:41.280 --> 00:42:49.200 system and all of the pain that brings and if you're there you might even be addicted you won't 356 00:42:49.200 --> 00:42:53.280 tell it to anybody but deep down inside you know not even start talking about social media I'm 357 00:42:53.280 --> 00:43:00.000 talking about to the world right now is a good time to say Lord help me you're you you don't 358 00:43:00.000 --> 00:43:06.080 have to work God will do the work but what you do have to do is get to a place where you acknowledge 359 00:43:06.080 --> 00:43:13.440 sin is sin and you're disgusted with sin so I don't want any part of it now 360 00:43:15.520 --> 00:43:19.520 why is that why is that so important it's always important it's important because the Bible says 361 00:43:19.520 --> 00:43:23.520 it's important but we are in 2024 362 00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:34.160 what are the chances that you think just percentage wise we're just going to have a regular old 363 00:43:35.120 --> 00:43:44.000 year you know kind of like the 1988 election a 92 election the 96 you know it was just a regular 364 00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:50.080 election and just in other words no global events what are the chances I think 365 00:43:55.360 --> 00:44:00.880 I was going to say what are the chances that we won't have a peaceful one are they greater than 366 00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:06.720 0% I don't want to you know I know you're saying 0% the other way but I don't want to terrify 367 00:44:06.720 --> 00:44:14.080 some people but I'm believing for the best and I believe for us for the people of God in 368 00:44:14.080 --> 00:44:23.040 destruction and famine you shall laugh and you will be blessed but I feel for you if you 369 00:44:23.040 --> 00:44:28.640 haven't figured out already that the media is not your friend and that 370 00:44:28.640 --> 00:44:38.800 it really hurt my feelings when I realized that the government is not my friend it bothered me I was 371 00:44:38.800 --> 00:44:45.440 sad because my family and I we immigrated to this country to get away from that nonsense 372 00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:54.960 and it really bothered me when I realized that things have changed and I'm talking to people 373 00:44:55.760 --> 00:45:02.640 unsaved people from my doctor to my hairdresser to some older gentleman where I live now 374 00:45:03.360 --> 00:45:08.400 and they're all saying the same things they're saying never in our lives have we seen it like this 375 00:45:09.200 --> 00:45:16.160 it's like they're lying all the time never in our lives have we seen the country in such a bad state 376 00:45:16.400 --> 00:45:26.400 you know the Dow is at an all-time high do you know the Nasdaq is at an all-time high 377 00:45:27.120 --> 00:45:32.080 do you know the S&P is at an all-time high and why do a lot of people that I know are broker than 378 00:45:32.080 --> 00:45:37.120 ever sure doesn't feel like everything's at an all-time high then you scratch underneath the surface 379 00:45:37.120 --> 00:45:42.480 and you realize there's just four to seven companies that are doing all of that and that if you 380 00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:49.200 look at the other companies we're down 10% year over year and then you see January jobs report 381 00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:57.120 best one I mean through the roof and I see people highly educated intelligent people not prone to 382 00:45:57.120 --> 00:46:06.560 conspiracies crap they're lying lying pumping those numbers up the one of my saying I'm not trying 383 00:46:06.560 --> 00:46:11.520 to get you to be afraid I'm just asking you to maybe look back on the last four years 384 00:46:12.160 --> 00:46:19.280 and realize some buttons are being pushed and not to just blindly trust anything you hear 385 00:46:20.080 --> 00:46:26.960 any narrative that's established but lean on Jesus like never before you say what is the 386 00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:31.440 answer pastor I don't like what you're saying what is the answer Jesus knowing him 387 00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:40.320 depending on him every single day and I I would love for it to just be just a regular old election year 388 00:46:40.320 --> 00:46:50.560 like 20 years ago like 30 years ago but it may not be and so you want to have a strong anchor now 389 00:46:50.560 --> 00:46:57.360 you don't want to be going into emergency tongues when it hits and then oh lord forgive me I should have 390 00:46:57.360 --> 00:47:04.320 been praying I should have been just be in the Jesus zone already is what I'm saying hey man 391 00:47:06.240 --> 00:47:12.160 everybody okay with what I just said all right and if you're wondering why I'm saying this I 392 00:47:12.160 --> 00:47:16.240 know YouTube now uses algorithms and if you say certain things it just cuts the feed 393 00:47:18.160 --> 00:47:22.720 but if you're wondering if you're still not wondering why I'm saying this just just remember 394 00:47:22.720 --> 00:47:29.520 four years ago they shut down the world maybe you don't have friends I do have friends who the 395 00:47:29.520 --> 00:47:35.440 war financially wrecked their businesses have been destroyed they shut down the war home depot stayed 396 00:47:35.440 --> 00:47:46.640 open Walmart stayed open but the world was shut down okay but pastor it was a pandemic yes seven 397 00:47:46.640 --> 00:47:54.000 million people died of COVID globally seven hundred million people were infected yes that's one percent 398 00:47:57.600 --> 00:48:03.200 one percent does not a pandemic make feel terrible for the seven million that died but one percent 399 00:48:03.200 --> 00:48:12.480 does not a pandemic the bubonic plague Western Europe 35% of the population died that's a pandemic 400 00:48:17.600 --> 00:48:21.520 he said well what what are you saying what was the purpose look I don't know all the purpose all I 401 00:48:21.520 --> 00:48:33.840 know is I know when I'm being lied to I know when somebody smearing my eyes yeah that's it I know when 402 00:48:33.840 --> 00:48:42.400 I'm when I'm being manipulated and controlled and it never I mean there was always lies any place 403 00:48:42.400 --> 00:48:51.520 that's not heaven there's gonna be but not like not like four years ago and and what's the answer 404 00:48:51.520 --> 00:48:58.960 Jesus and I believe the potential is there listen for us to have our greatest year ever as a
