Come on, every hand lifted in the room. I want you to say this with me out loud. Say, today is my day. Say, God, whatever you have for me and my family, I receive it I receive it by faith. By faith. Now in Jesus name. in Jesus name. Well give the Lord a mighty shout of praise. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Well, welcome to Restoration Church everybody. It's a good house. It's a good day to be in the house of God. Amen. Amen. Amen. Well, I love you. I'm so glad you're here. My name is Pastor Rudy and uh our mission here is very simple. Somebody say, "Keep it stupid simple." Keep it simple. Yeah. We do a few things. We save souls. That's a churchy way of saying we lead people to Jesus. That's that's the number one thing. Number two, we train leaders. If you're here, you're not going to be a volunteer. You're going to be a leader. Can you say amen? Amen. We save souls. We train leaders. We do that through Restoration Bible Institute. And then we love God and we love people. There's nothing we wouldn't do for God and nothing we wouldn't do to get people saved, healed, delivered, and in the presence of God. Can you say amen?

Well, welcome once again. At this time, why don't you say hi to one or two people around you and we'll be with you in just a few seconds. Hallelujah. Are we good with announcements, guys? Do we have audio? No. No announcements. Okay. Just a couple of quick announcements, guys. We have coming up. Well, first and foremost, tonight, we're in the middle of a week of revival meeting. Somebody say, "Revival." Revival. Yeah. Revival will change your life. Here's what I've learned about revival. Revival will either burn you or it'll build you. Somebody say, "I'm going to be built." I'm going to be built. Yeah. revival will build you up. And uh we're in the middle of that. So tonight we have the final night of the festival of miracles. I'm telling you, you do not want to miss it. You don't want to miss it. I I've seen so many miracles, physical miracles happen in front of my eyes in the last five days and I've seen probably in my entire life. So I'm telling you, you do not want to miss tonight. And uh I want to encourage you to do whatever you got to do to get in the building. Get your family, get your friends, get them in the building. And so that's tonight. We're going to be at 3335 Waters Road. Um we we've got hundreds of people that have been coming every night. So obviously we don't fit here. So we're going to be at a bigger venue. We're there tonight. So we got that tonight coming up. I believe it's in a couple of weekends. The last weekend of this month, we have what we call the love and marriage conference. Somebody say love, love and marriage. Listen, if you're a young adult, you're single, even if you're not a young adult, single, mar, or single, dating, and engaged, you got to be there. Cuz if you're a young man, we're going to teach you how to spit some game. Amen. And if you're a if you're a lady looking for love, we're going to teach you to not settle. Can you say amen? Yeah. Come on. You got to be here for that love and marriage conference. You see, the love the love of the world is not like the love of God. Can you say amen? And so, we're going to talk about that and we're going to spend a weekend dealing with that. And then we have um if I'm not mistaken, we also have one Oh, we have a super soul-winning Saturday coming up that same Saturday. Somebody say super. Super. Why is it super? Because typically what we'll do is we'll go doortodoor every first Saturday and we'll do an apartment complex outreach every third Saturday. So, we had to move some things around because of everything that's been happening with revival week. We didn't want to get anything in the way of that. So, we moved both of those to the last Saturday of this month. And so, what we're going to do is we're going to have one group go door knocking. And how many believe we can get 500 homes this this month for the glory of God? Amen. How many of you raise your hand and say, "I'm going to be a part of that." Yeah. Come on. Hey, all I need is 12. If we can get 12 people, we can smack it. And so we're going to have one group going doortodoor and then another group's going to go to the quarters at Redluff right here at the corner and we're going to serve and do an outreach there and preach the gospel and we're going to believe God to do something big and something great that Saturday. So we got all that coming up. Stay tuned. Stay locked in with us.

And now before we get into the to the meat of the of the word and we get into the main message, I want to talk to you just a couple moments before we move forward. If you would want you take your Bible and hold it in the air for me. Come on, show me you bring your Bible to church. Amen. All right. Now, I want you to open that Bible with me. And I want you to go to Hosea chapter 4 verse number 6. Say amen when you're there. Hosea chapter 4 verse number 6. Hallelujah. Hosea chapter 4 verse number six. The Bible says, "My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge." Somebody say, "A lack of knowledge." Now, here's what I've learned. I've learned in my life that God is a good God. How many of you believe that with me? I've also learned that because he's a good God, he wants to take care of me. Can you say amen? Amen. Come on, look at your neighbor and say, "God wants to take care of you." of you. You know, I've learned this, but God is a good God and he wants to bless me. He wants to bless you. He wants to bless your family. He wants to bless your children. God has good things in store for you. Can you say amen? Amen. You know, but the reality is that if we don't know this is what God's word says, then we can never have it because we think it's a dream or a hope. But when you understand that this isn't just a hope or a dream, this is God's word, then it it shifts. It shifts to maybe one day to know this day. It shifts to maybe, you know, one day it'll change to no now is the day of salvation. It shifts from maybe it'll happen eventually to no, NO, NO. THE MOMENT that I put my faith in action, God is ready to respond. Can you say amen? Amen. You see, ignorance of God's word causes financial destruction. If you don't know what God's word says, then you don't know what your life should look like. You know, I'm going to give you an opportunity to give here. And the reason I'm saying this is because I want you to know what God's word says. You're going to learn today, what does God's word say about my money and about my finances? But before we get there, I want to preface with this. If you don't know what God's word says, then that's where it brings destruction in every area of your life. You see, an ignorance of God's word causes bondage and lack. But when you have a knowledge of God's word, this is what brings the fulfillment of what God says you can have. How many of you want what God says you can have? You see, a knowledge of God's word brings God's word into fulfillment in your life. Proverbs 24:3-4 says, "Through skillful and godly wisdom is a house, a life, a home, and a family built, and by understanding it is established on a sound and good foundation, and by knowledge shall its chambers for every area be filled with all precious and pleasant riches." Somebody say seed. Say time. Time and say harvest. Harvest. You know, now that we know a lack of knowledge is what keeps us from receiving what God has, now we're going to get the knowledge. I want you to look at 2 Corinthians chapter 9 verse number 7 with me. I got three things to tell you about what God's word says about sewing. 2 Corinthians chapter 9 verse number 7. and say amen when you're there. The Bible says it this way, for God loves. Yeah, you got to catch this this morning. Listen to me when I say this. God loves. Somebody say, "God loves." God loves. You know, the reality is that there are things that God hates that. You know, people think there's nothing I can do to turn God's favor away from me. There's nothing I can do to get his hand off of me. But can I tell you that there are things that in the eyes of God are stupid. Can you say amen? There are things that in the eyes of God, God can look at those things and it can turn him away and say, "No, no, no. If you can't be faithful in the little, then I'm not opening much for you." You see, there are things that you can do that can turn God's hand away from you. But here's what I want to get across to you. If there are things that we can do that can turn God's favor off of us, then that must mean that there are things that we can do to turn God's favor onto us. Can you say amen? Amen. You see, I love this scripture because what it shows us is that God loves. Somebody say, God loves. God loves. He takes pleasure in prizes above other things and is unwilling to abandon or do without a cheer a cheerful giver whose heart is in his giving. Here's what I want you to know. Here's one of the benefits about sewing. Whenever you sew, I need you TO UNDERSTAND THIS. THAT GOD LOOKS AT YOUR LIFE and he sees you as special. He is looking for people WHO ARE NOT WAITING FOR THINGS TO LINE UP TO START SEWING. BUT HE'S LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO SAY WHETHER I GOT IT OR I DON'T, I'M GOING TO FIGURE OUT A WAY to sew some seed. Because if you don't have the knowledge of his word, you don't KNOW WHAT TO DO. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO go to THE NEXT LEVEL. YOU DON'T KNOW how to increase. You don't know how TO BREAK THROUGH. BUT WHEN YOU GET GOD'S WORD IN YOUR HEART THAT SAYS GOD GIVES when you sow, then I'm going to start sewing whether I got it or I don't. I'mma figure out a way. I'll sell a kidney. I'LL SELL SOMETHING. I'LL SELL THE SHOES. I'M GOING TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET seed in the ground. Why is this important? Because one of the benefits OF SEWING IS THAT GOD SEES you as special. And I believe in this end time harvest and the the days that we're LIVING IN, GOD IS VERY very frequently looking for people who will often sew without thinking twice. You see, the Bible says that when you give, it shall be given back. God says that he is looking for people who will sow. You see, financial sers are special to God. Somebody say real loud, I'm special to God. I'm special to God. Here's the second thing I want to tell you as one of the benefits of sewing. Number two, this is 2 Corinthians chapter 9:10. The Bible says God, somebody say God. God. God who provides seed. Somebody say seed for the swer and bread for eating will also somebody say he will also. He will also provide and multiply. Somebody say multiply. Multiply your resources. Check this out. for sewing. Did you catch that? And increase the fruits of your righteousness which manifests itself into active goodness, kindness, and charity. You see, here's what I want you to know. that when you step into this place of being a swer, of living a life of giving, a financial swer always receives extra money for sewing. Again, somebody say again. You see, God is not interested in one time. So, he's looking for people who he can flow through. He's looking for people that there's no blockage to. And I know I'm in a room full of people that got no blockage. Can you say amen? I know I'm in a room full of PEOPLE THAT SAY, "GOD, if you will see my seed and multiplied, I will continue to sew." Can you say amen? Here's the third thing I want to tell you. 2 Corinthians chapter 9 verse 6, the Bible says, "But remember this, if you give little, you will get little. A farmer who plants just a few seeds will only get a small crop. But if you plant much, somebody say much. You will reap much. Hallelujah. You see, if you think that your seed means nothing to God, you're mistaken. Your seed matters to God because your seed, the Bible says that the treasure is always found from your heart. The Bible says that everything flows from the heart. Where your heart is, there your treasure will be. So it matters the way you give. It matters the way you sow. You see, financial sers receive liberal harvest from God. You see, God's promise of seed time and harvest multiplies the money that you sew for a greater seed tomorrow. How many of you have ever been in a place where you're like, "God, if you ever give me this, I promise I'll sew." You know, but here's the problem with that. God already has seed in your hand. Catch this today. You never get to decide whether you will be a steward or not. Every single person in this room under the sound of my voice today, you are already a steward by default. You don't get to decide whether you will be a steward or not one day. All you get to decide is whether you will be a faithful steward or a wicked steward. And I know I'm in a room full of faithful stewards. Can you say amen? So everything I just read is not just something that will be far from you. This is going to be your life in Jesus name. Get ready because much is coming into your hands. Get ready because the overflow is coming into your hands. As you sew, as you give, the God of the multiplication will multiply your seed. The days of meeting needs are over. The days where you start to meet the needs of others will be your life from this day forward in Jesus name. Can you say amen? Amen. I want to give you an opportunity to give today and I want to tell you exactly what I just said at the beginning that God sees swers as special. God is looking for people that will sew into the kingdom of God. God is looking for people that say, "God, if you take what I have and you use it to advance the kingdom, I will give." How many of you want to advance the kingdom of God? You got an opportunity to do that right now. We have Evangelist Ana with us today and he has led over 7.2 million people to the Lord. Somebody say, "That's a great work." Come on, say it like you mean it. say, "That's a great work. That's a great work." And he's he, you know, he's not 50, 60 years old. He he's in his 30s, which means he's got a lot of, you know, he's got a lot of time left. Which means this, if he did all of that by 30, what do you think he'll accomplish by 60? Right? And today you and I have an opportunity to put some seed in the ground to to partner with him as he continues to go further. How many of you say, "I want to partner with that." Come on. That's a great work. You know, and I'm going to give you an opportunity to sew into his ministry today. Don't sew into our ministry today. Sew into his ministry today. Because what I've learned and a lot of pastors today will be here like this. You know, we got to make sure the offering. No, no, no. Here's what I've learned. What you make happen for others, God will make happen for you. Can you say amen? And there's no way I would allow this week and allow you guys not to have an opportunity to sew into what God's doing in his life and in his ministry. There's no way. There's no way. You want to know why? Because the giving is not the giving is not for God. The giving is for you. The giving is so that you can be blessed. And I want you to be bless. You want to know why? Cuz he's leaving to tomorrow. But when you give and you so you're the one that gets blessed and you're staying in my church. So I want my church people to be blessed people. Can you say amen? Amen. So listen, today I want you to give your best gift. Give your best gift today. If you've been saving, you've been give, you've been waiting, break it today and let go. You know, my wife said something to me last night at 2 in, we're laying down in bed. It's 2:00 in the morning and I'm I'm ready to go to sleep and she's like she's like, you know, I just wanted she's just talking and talking to me about what God speaks to. I said, "Babe, I got to go to sleep." But I did catch something before I I told her I got to go to bed. She said, "I want the way that we gave this week to get the attention of God." I want God's attention this week. And I want to encourage you today, give in a way that grabs God's attention. Don't give in a way that it doesn't hurt. Don't sew in a way that you don't feel it. BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T FEEL IT, leave your hand. You'll never feel it when it comes back. YOU OUGHT TO GIVE IN A WAY THAT says something has to happen. Because here's what I've learned. You can take God at his word. If he said it, he meant it. One of THE ENEMIES OF PROSPERITY IS A LACK OF GOD'S WORD. But you don't have a lack of knowledge of God's word today cuz YOU JUST HEARD THAT GOD GIVES more seed to the sewer. Somebody say, "I'm a sewer." I'm a So today you have an opportunity to sew. That means everywhere you go, no matter where you go after this, no matter where you end up after this, wherever you end up, you go with seed in the ground and you can go with expectation knowing that what you make happen for others, God will make happen for you. Can you say amen? Amen. So, let me pray for you real quick and give you an opportunity to give. Every head bowed. Father, I thank you that right now you speak to every man and every woman on what you would have them do today. I thank you, Lord, that you're speaking to people right now to go above and beyond, to break it open, Lord, to do what they've never done. And I thank you, God, that as they do that, as they do what they've never done, they will see your hand of blessing and favor in a way they've never seen it before in their lives in Jesus name. I thank you, Lord, that as they sow, you return it to them a hundfold. I thank you Lord that as they sow that you will multiply their seed and may it be the smallest gift they can ever give in Jesus name. I thank you that the next time evangelist comes that seed will be multiplied and they'll look back and say, "Man, that's what I gave last time, but look at how I added a zero this time." And I thank you for it, Lord, in Jesus name. Amen. And amen. Well, ushers, if you can pass out the envelopes, and we have the QR codes on the screens as well. If you'd like to give, you can do PayPal, Zel, Apple Pay, Venmo, text to give. There's no way not to give today. You got every opportunity. You got every way of doing it. Do what God tells you to do. The Lord bless you. and keep you. Make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you. The Lord turn his his face toward you and give you peace. So we sing amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. May your spirit be a part generous generation. Your children, your children, your children. in the thous. Hallelujah. If you're ready to give, why won't you stand to your feet? Or if you already gave, let's all stand. The ushers are going to pass out the buckets. If you gave by way of cash or envelope, you can do that. Let me pray one more time over your seat. Father, I thank you for every giver and every seed that was sown today. I thank you Lord that you bless it a hundfold return. I thank you Lord that supernatural multiplication would take its hold on this seed today in Jesus name. Father I pray that you would brand every giver with your favor today and we thank you for it in Jesus name. Amen. And amen. Go ahead, ushers. Pass out those buckets. His presence. May his presence go before you and behind you and beside you, all around you, within you. He's with you. He's with you. In the morning, in the evening, when you come and you go and you rejoicing, he's for you. He's for you. He's for you. He's for you. He's for you. He's for you. He's for you. He's for you. Yeah. Oh. Oh, I am Hallelujah.

Well, without further ado, I'm going to go ahead and hand this service over. So, if you would, why don't you help me welcome Evangelist Anen. Well, shout hallelujah. Hallelujah. And uh yeah, also obviously I'm not taking the offering. Amen. It's all coming back to your church. Amen. Because uh I'm here to help. Amen. And so, um, lift both hands high to the Lord across this place. Father, I thank you that this morning that your hand would touch these precious people right in this great city of Pasadena. I know Lord, a lot of people call this place Stinkadena, but Lord, I thank you. The sweet aroma of your glory shall flood Pasadena in Jesus name. I thank you that from this moment there will be a fire lit across the city that will spread to every region around the United States of America. Yes, Lord. That this ministry right here will grow exponentially. Amen. And there will be no lack all the days of their lives. Blessing you will bless them. Multiplying you will multiply them. Oh, thank you Lord. In Jesus name we pray. Amen and amen. Hallelujah. Glory to God. You may be seated. I know you're looking at me weird, but I was just making sure that the podium aligns with the middle thing over there. Amen. I think I have a little bit of OCD. All right. Got to get delivered from that. But this morning I'm I'm I'm bringing more of a of a pastoral message than a evangelistic message. What people don't know about me is uh I pastored a church with my father for many many years. And in fact I helped build the church to be one of the great churches in that city. And so what I'm about to share this morning is about what is to come for this church and the future of this church. So I want you to pay attention me attention to me for the next 3540 minutes. And I believe that what God's going to do here is going to have a ripple effect across Pasadena. Amen. And if you're here to have, you know, to be a part of a small church, um you're in the wrong place, right? This church is not it's not it might begin small, but it's not going to remain small. Amen. Um, where's the rest of my Bibles go? Where's Where's Justin Timberlake? Well, guess somebody's going to have a conversation with me today. All right. On my way here, I was asking the Lord what I needed to deal with. And um there's something the Lord has been dealing with me about since December of last year. And the Lord spoke to me and said to me that between in the year of 2026, it was going to be the year of Jubilee, the year of celebration. But the Lord began to deal with me about certain things about what God was going to do for the church in this year. And if you heed what I'm saying today, you will not have another day of lack in your life. Amen. And the Lord told me to tell you this morning that you will pursue and you will overtake and you will recover all. Look at the person next to you and say, "You will you will recover all." Amen. Say it like you mean it. Some of you will recover your hair. Amen. Amen. Now go with

me to the book of 1st Samuel chapter 30 and we're going to read from verse one. 1st Samuel 30 verse one. Some other people have no hope. Amen. Not looking at anybody in particular. That's a very shiny head today. Great job. May your future be as bright as Jacob's bald head. Amen. like you need sunglasses just to you know look at him today.

Three days later when David and his men arrived home at their town Ziglag they found that the Amalachites had made a raid negv and Ziglag they had crushed Ziglag and burned it to the ground. They had carried off the women, the children, and everyone else, but but without killing anyone. When David and his men saw the ruins and realized what had happened to their families, they wept until they could weep no more.

How many of you have ever been in a place where you wept till they could weep no more? >> Three people. That's awesome. Let me try that again. How many people have wept till you could weep no more? >> I have many times. >> Amen. If you haven't done that, then you're not ready for a breakthrough yet. >> Amen. Most people think, you know, everything's going to be peachy all for the rest of your life. No, you will have tribulations. It's tribulations that what are what make you great. >> Amen. I don't know that anybody that's been great without facing a tribulation. >> Because every challenge that's put your way is actually um actually a pathway to your breakthrough. And so most people do want to avoid challenges, but I love challenges. I love facing a challenge. And it's not because like, you know, I'm a glutton for punishment. I just know I can't be defeated. >> That's right. >> Amen. >> And I don't have defeat in my vocabulary. >> There are many over the years that have come and tried to take me out and try to pull our ministry down and whatever. Clearly, I'm still here and they're not. >> That's right. >> Amen. >> So, here's what I'm trying to tell you. Do not fear challenges. >> Instead, face them head on and say, "Bless God, I'm gonna see a breakthrough." >> The difference between those that win and those that don't win. It's very simple. Those that win never quit. >> And those that quit never win. >> I mean, you think about it for a second. There are many people that I've known over the years that have that have had great potential with their lives, but they've never seen a breakthrough because they got stuck in that mode of of self-pity. Say it with me, self-pity. >> Self-pity. >> One of the greatest challenges that I see in churches, there are a lot of baby Christians that never want to grow. It's cute when you see a three-year-old crying and dirtying their diaper, but it's not cute when you're 25 years old. >> Amen. >> So, here's the deal. A lot of people want to remain in that place of being uh a baby Christian because they love the pity that they receive from their pastor. >> Amen. >> But you can't raise up an army of babies. >> That's right. Amen. >> And I believe that out of this room, the Lord would raise up people that are warriors >> who don't act like children. That's right. >> I tell my staff all the time, I'm not here to babysit you. >> I'm not here to take care of your little boo boo. >> Amen. Well, I have a boo boo. Can you kiss the boo boo? Amen. That that doesn't happen in my ministry. And I'll tell you why not. Because if you if if if you have that culture in a ministry, then you are never ready to build something great. >> All you will have is a bunch of people complaining about what they don't have. >> And church is not about coming to a place, listening to cute message, and having your ears tickled and you go right back home and live the way you lived before. Church is an army that actually transforms a city. If a church is not transforming a city, then that church according to me shouldn't even exist. >> Amen. >> Cuz you're a waste of breath and a waste of space. >> Hallelujah. I'm not talking about you. Nothing. I'm just saying in general >> because most churches never advance to take over a city. >> See, the Lord will the Lord will give you the desires of your heart. If you don't desire something, he's not going to give it to you. >> That's right. And a lot of people will tell you, you know, especially to the both of you, they'll always say, "Look, you know, here's the deal, you know, just don't go crazy about trying to build a big church, you know, that's that's just crazy talk, you know, and people will tell you it's not about the crowds." Um, yes, it is about the crowds. Whatever you criticize, you will not have. >> Only an idiot says it's not about the crowds. And when I say that, I don't mean the sheer amount of people. I mean the hungry people that come in desperation. >> Amen. >> Because people will say, "Well, it's not about the crowds." The minute you say that, then you're then you're actually putting yourself in a position where you don't want the church to grow anymore. >> Amen. >> And when people start criticizing miracles and signs and wonders, then you can't have any miracles. Why? You can't have whatever you criticize. >> True. >> If you criticize prosperity, you won't have it. You criticize miracles, you won't have it. You criticize the crowds, you won't have it. >> Whatever you criticize, you're not going to have. >> And I've watched a lot of people criticize other ministries for what they have because they don't have it. >> But you'd rather look at it and say, "Let me see what they are doing right >> and grab a hold of what they're doing." That's right. >> And the church can't be in a place where you you want the church to remain stagnant at a certain point. >> Because you feel like you're not going to be important if it grows. >> Amen. >> There are a lot of people in especially in churches that love their church as long as it's small. The minute it starts growing, they start having problems with it >> because now they don't feel noticed the way they were noticed back in the day. >> Amen. >> And they start to get upset with the pastor. Well, back in the day, the pastor used to make so much time for me, but now he doesn't make any time for me. >> Well, back in the day was 10 years ago. >> Amen. >> In those 10 years, surely I'd hope that you'd grow up and be able to handle your own situation. >> That's good. If you're always dependent, then you know you you didn't do your job and actually growing up. >> Hallelujah. Say this with me. I'm going to grow up. >> I'm going to grow up. >> Yeah. I'm not out here looking for validation from anybody. >> I promise you right now, one of the one of the greatest things a lot the Lord actually did for me was put me in situations where I lost people's validation. And then a lot of people get into this mode where they're trying to go and gain everybody else's validation instead of building what God told them to build. >> So you're wasting your time, your energy, your resources, trying to chase people that you'll never really have a relationship with. >> Amen. >> So we're not out here trying to seek validation. We're here to seek his presence. That's right. >> And so the minute you get out of that mindset of trying to get everybody's validation and just focus on what we're supposed to do, you will see greater growth in your life. I mean, think about it this way. A lot of times even in churches, I've seen many people trying to find validation from other people about their pastor. Well, what do you think about the pastor? Well, what do you think about the pastor? Why are you asking that question? >> Amen. >> Hash just saying. >> Hello. Well, you know, Pastor Rudy's great, but you know, he's just he's just 28 years old. You know, he has he doesn't have that much under his belt. Yeah. What do you have under your belt? >> Huh? It's easy to criticize people. >> But what have you done for the kingdom of God? >> And I say this by the Holy Ghost. >> Let me tell you right now, one thing about me, I hear the Holy Ghost like you wouldn't believe. >> Glory to God. >> Glory to God. >> So, one of the most important things you're going to have to deal with is your own heart. >> Hallelujah. >> And when God's called you somewhere, do everything in your power to stand with those he's called you to be with. One of the things I tell people all the time, you cannot you cannot be in a place where God's not called you to be. >> And if and if you know God's called you to be somewhere, do everything in your power to stand in that place. >> Amen. >> And show up to your post every single day. >> Amen. >> It's not about how important you feel. It's about the assignment that God's given you. >> That's right. >> Amen. >> Amen. >> Say with me, I'm going to >> I'm going to >> value my assignment. >> Value my assignment.

Okay, now continue with me. Verse two. They carried out the women and children and everyone else, but without killing anyone. When David saw his men's ruins, realized what had happened to their families. They wept until they could weep no more. David's two wives, Aenom and Jezel and Abigail, the widow of Nabal from from Caramel, were among those captured. David was now in great danger because all his men were very bitter. Say with me, bitter. bitter. >> They were very bitter about losing their sons and daughters and they began to talk of stoning him. But David found strength in the Lord. Now, this part is very important. The same mighty men that David raised up were the same mighty men that wanted to kill David because of the condition of their heart. Now, I'll explain what I mean by that. Imagine there are four people in an offering room counting the offering. There are three that are doing financially great and there is one that's not doing financially well. Now, when the offering is being counted, the one person that's not doing financially well will now suddenly have a thought or an intrusive thought saying, "If I just took a $100 bill from here, nobody would find out." Obviously, that person's not going to do it. It's an intrusive thought. But where did the intrusive thought come from? It came from the situation they're dealing with. Are you listening to me? >> So, a lot of times people don't realize there's a difference between a Judas and a Peter. >> Judas was a bad man. >> Peter was having a bad day. >> Wow. >> Are you listening to me? >> And so, there are many that are having sometimes they have bad days. So, you can't write people off when they're having a bad day. >> Amen. >> Amen. >> And I'm saying this for you to understand that every time, especially in a church or in a ministry or whatever, you're going to have people that have had bad days. Sometimes you'll be having a bad day. But don't take that temporary emotion and make a permanent decision. >> Amen. You struggling financially might be it might be something you go through for 24 hours, maybe even a week, maybe even a month, but eventually you'll get out of it. >> But here's the deal. But if in that situation, you go and take the $100 bill, you bring a curse upon yourself. >> Amen. >> So a lot of people lose their birthright for a bowl of porridge. It's the same thing with sin as well. Even adultery is the same thing. You know, you ask most people, you know, why they commit adultery. The excuse is basically the same. They say, "Well, you know, I was being neglected by my husband. I was being neglected by my wife, and I went out and I screwed up." Amen. Why do you Why Why do you think that happens so much? Well, here's why. Because they have never learned how to find strength in the Lord. People that find strength in situations and in other people will always be people that are double-minded and unstable in all their ways. But the people that strength comes from the Lord, they never have to run around trying to find validation from others. >> Most mistakes happen because the lack of the sense of validation that they feel they did not receive. It's either with God, they feel that way, or with their with their pastor, with their spouse, wherever it is, Satan will always use that to get you to a place to walk out of the plan, the purpose of God in your life. >> Amen. >> The little foxes are what destroy the crop. >> And most of the times, it's that feeling of, well, I'm I don't feel validated. Amen. Now I I'll tell you a quick story before before I get into a few more things. How many of you know the story of Elijah and Elisha? >> One person. You. That's it. Nobody else. >> How many of you know the story of Elijah and Elisha? >> All right. Interact with me. Amen. >> This is not a This is not a non-interactive service. Amen. Respond to me. Now Elijah and Elisha, it's such an interesting story because Elijah goes up to Elisha as he's working his his father's field and he says, "Come and follow me." Elisha says, "No, I can't come and follow you. I got to go first and kiss my father goodbye." Elijah gets upset and says, "What have I done for thee?" He was saying, "Go away. I don't need you to follow me anymore." But then Elisha goes and burns everything behind him and follows Elijah along the road. Now, here's the crazy part about this story. A lot of people are seeking the call of God through affirmation. I'll hold on to that thought for a second because most people when they feel c when they when they want to be called by God, here's what they expect. They expect the great prophet Elijah to come up to you and say, "Thou faithful servant Rudy. For God hath called thee into his ministry. For thou shalt follow me, and thou shalt be my successor, and thou shalt have the double portion of what I carry." Oh, hallelujah. But when Elijah called Elisha, none of that happened. He said, "Come be my servant." >> That's a terrible way to start your ministry. No validation, no affirmation, none of it. But what a lot of people don't realize that Elisha had stepped into his promotion without even realizing it. Many times people don't understand that your promotion does not have to come with validation. >> Wow. >> Are you following what I'm saying? >> Cuz everybody wants to be validated. So many people miss out on heaven's opportunity because they expected to be packaged a certain way. >> Yeah. >> Elisha was known as a man who poured water on the hands of Elijah. That was his job title. Imagine that. Wherever he goes, he was known as a servant of Elijah. Not a successor, none of that. Just a servant. But today's modern Christian world, nobody wants to be a servant. I'm going to let that sink in. It's getting very quiet here this morning. Amen. >> Well, I've been in this service for so long, they never even let me do the announcements. >> I'm in this church for so long, they haven't even let me count the offering. I haven't been I've been in the church so long, but they've never let me do anything. Well, what are you here for then? So, you're here for validation and not for what God's called you to do. >> Then the purpose of the heart is wrong. >> Then everything that comes out of it will also be wrong. I feel like Daniel in the lion's den right now. >> I don't really care. Amen. >> Listen, I'm Indian. You know what I mean? We don't get We're I'm not very easy to intimidate. You don't in Amen. All right. But here's what I'm trying to tell you. If I'm trying to say and that's a joke, by the way, if those for those who don't have a sense of humor. All right. Um, but here's the thing. Most people are looking for a breakthrough in some supernatural magical way. But many times God doesn't do it that way. Many times you step into your assignment without even realizing it. >> And many times Satan will use validation to take you out of heaven's assignment. >> Are you listening to me? He will bring somebody on the outside that will choose to validate your bitterness >> and then pull you out of the call of God. >> So think about it this way. Why do people fall into adultery? Let's let's go since that's happening a lot in America, right? Let's just talk about that. Amen. Why do people fall into adultery? Cuz some hoe shows up. Amen. and validates your bitterness >> towards a Godapp appointed covenant. >> So is that God? >> Okay, not over here. Okay. Is that God? >> So then let me ask you a question. If God puts you in covenant with the ministry >> and somebody else comes from the outside and validates your bitterness, >> is that God? I rest my case. >> I could be a lawyer. Amen. >> But here's what I'm trying to tell you. That's the same old trick that Satan always uses. >> That's the same thing Satan did in the Garden of Eden. >> If you go through the Bible, the pattern is same is the exact same. It's funny how men keep falling into it over and over again. Amen. >> Say it with me. I will not let someone else >> I will not let someone else >> validate >> validate >> my bitterness >> my bitterness. >> And I tell people all the time, listen, if you're coming to me to validate your bitterness, I promise you that's not going to happen. >> Amen. Amen. >> And so here's what I want you to understand. Now Elijah takes Elisha on the road with me. All he's doing is pouring water on his hands. Now Elijah was such a wise man. Elijah wanted to see what Elisha truly wanted. So the scriptures talks about at the end of Elijah's life before he was about to be taken away. Everybody knew that Elijah was about to be taken away this week. Then Elijah stops in different cities or towns over and over again. And he tells Elisha, "Stay here. I'll go to the next city." >> But Elisha says, "I'm not leaving you. As long as the Lord lives and you live, I'm not going anywhere." >> And he keeps following him and following him and following him. Why was Elijah telling him to stay? Think about this for a second. Every place that Elijah went to was a place where the school of prophets existed. That means the prophets that Elijah led. So Elijah was giving Elish an opportunity to stay here to rule over those prophets in that city. So he was offering him promotion. So every time he went to each city, he offered him promotion and Elisha said, "I don't want the promotion. >> I want the anointing." >> So he chased after the anointing till the end. And then the scripture says he carried a double portion upon his life. >> So many people look and think about it. He did not get his promotion till Elijah was taken away. >> That means those that endured till the end. >> Are the ones that'll be truly called faithful in the sight of God. >> That's in every area of your life >> with your marriage, with your with your church, with your family. You got to endure. >> Amen. >> If there is no endurance, there's no reward. Yeah. >> Say there'll be no endurance. >> No endurance. >> No reward. >> No reward. >> Yeah. >> Hallelujah. >> Now continue with me. Verse six. David was now in great danger. All his men were very bitter about losing their sons and daughters and they began to talk of stoning him. So where the bitterness come from? It came from the situation that they were dealing with. >> But say with me, but. But David found strength in the Lord his God. Then he said to Abither the priest, "Bring me the ephod." And Abither brought it. Then David asked the Lord, "Shall I pursue, and will I overtake them?" Now, so here's the crazy part. What does David ask the Lord? Shall I pursue? Okay. Now, here's something very important I want to share with you. And this should be the guideline for your life. Say with me, the guideline. >> Guideline. And this is what the Lord taught me. And this has saved me from so much trouble over the years. It's ridiculous. When people are going through a rough season or they're going through a time of bitterness in their heart, they always go and inquire of the Lord. Okay? Now, here's the danger with that. When you are bitter and you pray, many times you don't hear the voice of the Lord. You hear your own flesh. >> It sounds like God, >> but it's not God. >> It's your flesh. When I heard the voice of the Lord, the Lord told me that I'm supposed to take this church and I'm going to split it in two. >> We're supposed to go start another church. Um, God didn't tell you that. >> Amen. >> That's called the Luciferian spirit. >> Because Lucifer split heaven. >> So, it's very easy to feel. The Bible says Satan is parading like an angel of light. So many times people hear the voice of Satan himself and think it's God. People I've heard so many people tell me, "Well, God spoke to me." I know God. He doesn't talk like that. That's you. Amen. Or the demon that took you over. People say, "Well, Christians can't have demons." I can show you so many Christians that do have demons. >> Hello. That's just a AOG teaching that Christians can't have any demons. That's not true. The Bible talks about a stained soul. Demon, a demon can't have control over you unless until you give yourself over to it. You have to allow it into your life. Let me ask you, wasn't Judas with Jesus? >> Didn't Judas go with the other 12 out into the country to to to do ministry? Didn't he also carry the power of God? Then what happened? He took money from the Pharisees. Then the Bible says Satan entered his heart. Oh, I thought I thought Christians can't get demons. >> Getting very quiet in here this morning. >> Well, a demon's pure spirit can't dwell where the Holy Spirit is. Who says the Holy Spirit is dwelling with those people? >> Amen. >> If the Holy Ghost is dwelling with you, fine. But see, the Holy Ghost doesn't hang around bitter people. >> That's right. >> Amen. >> Because many people grieve the Holy Ghost so much that he actually takes his hands off people. >> Amen. >> He's your helper. He's your comforter. But as long as you actually lean on him, >> if you keep giving yourself over to bitterness and sin and whatever else, you're going to end up grieving the Holy Ghost. He'll still watch over you, but you're giving yourself over to a different spirit at that point. Okay. All right. I've casted out devils out of Christians. Explain that to me. Now, I'm talking about full-blown manifestation. been saved a decade. See, bitterness is the open door that allows every form of sin and demonic activity into your life. Let me ask you this question. Is adultery demonic? >> Yes, it is, isn't it? >> Do we know Christians that fall into adultery? So, uh, how did that happen? >> Without a demon, >> correct me if I'm wrong, Jacob. Have you ever met people with Christians with demons before? >> Yeah. Hallelujah. But see, you are to recognize the devil's vices. >> When something comes against me, I rebuke that spirit because I know it's a spirit. >> It's not that Satan won't come to you with those things, but you don't open that door. >> You shut it >> in his face. >> That's right. >> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Now, continue along with me. Now at this point you see that David David had strength in the Lord. The Lord spoke to me and said to me, "Son, every time you are going through a situation, find strength in me first." And here's what I mean by that. Before you inquire of the Lord, you must always encourage yourself in the Lord. I'll say it again. Before you inquire of the Lord, you must always encourage yourself in the Lord. Say it with me. Before I inquire of the Lord, >> Before I inquire of the Lord, >> I must encourage myself. >> I must encourage myself >> in the Lord. >> in the Lord. >> And I'll tell you why I say that. I share this with you today because I've watched many people get taken out of the call of God because they they inquired the Lord at the wrong time and they never heard the voice of the Lord in the first place. So there's a message that I really love and if you get the chance go and listen to it. It's by by brother Kenneth Eh Hagen. It's called um what to do when when victory seems lost. Write that down. I'm telling you, listen to it a thousand times over. It will help you greatly. So, that's one of my favorite messages. And here's what I do when I'm going through a tough situation. I play that video over and over and over and over and over again till whatever I'm dealing with, be it bitterness, be it anger, whatever it is, I wait till that breaks off of me because I know when the joy of the Lord hits me. And then when that hits me, when that breaks off of me, then I say, "Lord, speak to me." Then the voice of the Lord is clear to me and the Lord says, "Do this and do that." >> And I know exactly what to do in that situation. And here's what the Lord says to David. He says, "Pursue. You shall surely overtake and you shall recover all." >> God never tells you anything in a sense of negativity. >> He will never say you're going to be destroyed. He will never say destroy somebody else. Are you listening to me? >> But he will tell you, pursue, overtake, and you will recover all. >> God's will is for you to always recover everything that Satan stole from you. >> Amen. Your joy, your peace, all of it. All of it. God wants you to recover all. >> Amen. >> But you can't recover all if you're not encouraged in the Lord. Right? >> And here's the problem with here's a problem with a lot of people when they deal with these situations. They either don't inquire of the Lord or they jump right into whatever they think is right. >> They think their anger is God's righteous anger. It's not. >> You're just having a bad day. And let me touch on one more touchy subject over here. How many of you know people talk about the spirit of discernment? Everybody loves that word. >> I had the spirit of discernment. You real and and I'll share this with you. A bitter person cannot carry the gift of discernment of spirits. You can't cuz you're seeing everybody through the lens of your bitterness. >> A person that's truly healed and a person that is truly walking with God who has no bitterness or guile is the one that can operate in the gifts of discernment of spirits. >> Because otherwise all you will do is find fault with people. And the gift of discernment of spirit spirits doesn't just find fault with people but it also finds the treasure in people. >> I'll wait for that for a second. >> People only try to look for people's faults. >> But the gift of discernment spirits also helps you find the treasure in earth and vessel. So if you find someone that's always bitter 24 hours a day towards everybody all the time, I bet this is wrong with that person, that's wrong with that person, that's wrong with that person. They don't have a gift of discernment of spirits. They're just bitter. >> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> And a good leader. Now I and this is for the leaders here. A good leader doesn't whine. Amen. How many leaders are here in this church? Where have you handed me? This is for everybody here. A good leader doesn't whine. It's not a big baby. Do you see David going, "My life is so hard. He gives and takes away. Yet my heart will choose to say he wasn't doing any of that. >> Amen. >> When I go through a tough time, I'm not saying he gives and take. That's not even biblical. >> They took that from book of Job. >> How about you also take that God restored to Job twice as much as he had before. Why just pick one part of it? You know, there's a whole story behind that song, and I want to I'll I'll share it with you while while we're here, just so I clear this out. My father was preaching in in the United Kingdom. He had great revivals in in England, and Matt Redmond was my father's worship leader. Amen. I was while growing up, Matt used to lead worship for my father. And so the the way that ended up happening, Matt actually came to my father's meeting and his wife had I think about three or four miscarriages over and over again. That's why he wrote the song, he gives and takes away. And that day when he came to my father's service for the first time, he sent word through him through through the pastor of that church saying, "I really want to meet uh him and I want him to pray for me and my wife. We have something to tell them." And that day my father got up on the platform and called off of this lady and said, "There's a lady sitting over here and your name is so and so." And and this was before Facebook. Amen. Mark Zucker Zuckerberg was not even, you know, in uh college at that time. So he called her out and he and he said uh and he said, "Every time you've had a miscarriage, you always had this dream." dream and he explained that dream and he said because of that dream every time you lost the child and the Lord wants you to know that it's not he that took away it was Satan that took away >> and then Matt and his wife got touched by the power of God in a mighty way. >> Amen. >> Before you knew it in about about I think three years or four years they had like three beautiful children. >> Amen. I think now they have like six or seven children. >> God, what does God do? He allows you to recover all. >> Amen. >> You know, so that song was written when he was going through a tough time. Everybody loves that song because it it it validates your sorrow. We don't change our theology to accommodate our tragedy. >> That's right. Amen. >> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> So coming back to what I was saying, David did not whine or quip. Instead, he found strength in the Lord. And the Lord said this to me. He said, "Son, as long as you find strength in people, as long as you find validation in people, I will never be able to trust you with the next level." Because if I do take you to the next level, if people's criticism can if people criticism can break you, then you're not ready to handle what I have to give you. That's >> right. >> If people applause can make you and people's criticism can break you, then you're actually not dependent on God. You're dependent on people. >> And your trust is in the arm of the flesh. >> That's right. So the Lord said to me, the day you learn to take your trust off the arm of the flesh and trust me and seek validation from me, >> I will give you exponential growth. >> So that this this all happened like I think I heard the Lord said this to me I think in December and of 2025. Since that moment to now, the acceleration has been redonkulous. Amen. >> Amen. >> With everything the Lord's doing right now. >> The day I learned to find validation in God. >> And this was something that the Lord was dealing with for a long time, but I just didn't realize it. You know, even in 2025, 2024, the Lord was already dealing with me along these lines, but not he never I was never able to articulate what the Lord was doing for me. But about almost a year or two two ago, I completely shut my shut my ears off to every everything in the outside world. One of the biggest things that I did was I got off got off of social media. I'm not even on social media. Amen. Because I couldn't care less to see what other people are doing. Amen. >> I don't have time for that. What is that person doing? What is this? Who who cares what they're doing? >> I'm worried about my life here. Amen. >> And the assignment that God's given me. >> And so when I began to change my focus, everything started to fall into place. The minute you find strength in the Lord is the day you're ready to handle everything that God has to give you >> because it will come with a blessing >> and will come with criticism too >> and a lot of it. >> I don't know anybody that made it in life that was not criticized. So, if you can't handle the criticism, then you better not be asking God for a breakthrough. >> Notice how everybody that has a lot of friends are all people that are either broke or not doing anything with their lives. >> Think about it. And I used to wonder, you know, I used to be like, man, that that pastor is like has like 15 people in their church, you know, they have but they have all these friends and I'm doing these big things and like, you know, I don't have that many friends. I remember Rinhard Bank when I was very young, I was 13, 14 years old, he sat me down and he said, "How many friends do you have?" I said, I I was I had like a whole bunch of friends, you know. He looked at me and he said, "A day will come when you'll be when you'll be able to count all your friends on one hand. And he said, "At that point, don't worry about it. You only have to focus on the relationships that God gave you, not everyone else." >> You know, >> and so at that time, I didn't get it. Now I was 13 years old. A teenager doesn't understand that stuff, >> you know. But now looking back at it, every one of those words are helping me now. >> And I go, I'm like, "Wow, that's actually so true." So don't gauge somebody's success by how many friends they have. >> Look at the fruit they have. >> The fruit matters more than anything else matters. >> You know, I I I I could not care less about being light. I care about the fruit. >> If I know I'm bearing fruit, I don't need you to tell me I'm bearing fruit. >> That's right. >> I know what's growing on my tree. Amen. >> I'm a fruit inspector. >> I inspect for fruit. >> And that's what I want to tell every leader even here. Inspect the fruit in your church. >> Inspect the fruit in every department of the ministry. >> If there's no fruit in that department, that that means that person's heart heart is not in it. >> So what do you do? You remove that person. I tell people all the time, be slow to hire and quick to fire. >> I'm telling you, I know this is a little crazy now. I'm going to expose myself. I don't really care. Amen. It's just what it is. Like, if I see somebody not in our ministry not doing what they're supposed to do, I'll just, you know, I'll just text Teresa and say, "Well, I guess they got to go." And then Teresa will just remove them from all the chats and that's it. They're gone. >> Amen. >> And they start they start trying to Well, I'm going to talk to the evangelist. No, there's nothing to talk about. I give you I gave you five years of grace to sort yourself out. But after that, we're not going to have any more conversations. >> We've had the conversations already. >> Day in and day out. We've had convers every single day. Let please sort this out. Let's sort this out. We can fix this. We can fix this. We've done all that stuff. After that, you still don't want to change. Then I'm not going to keep you around for much longer. Why should I waste heaven's resources on somebody that's not doing anything for the kingdom of God? >> That's good. >> It's not about the just about the person. It's also about the assignment that God's given me. >> I used to be very worried about doing that back in the day. Well, I can't fire anybody and I can't whatever. I was just like very about that stuff. The Lord said to me, "So you're saying that you're more word you're more worried about what people think about you than being faithful with what I've given you?" >> Amen. >> Even not just in the ministry, but even in your everyday life, there are some people that'll just suck your resources, >> suck your joy out, >> suck your peace out. >> You don't need that in your life. >> Amen. >> Amen. Amen. >> And sometimes God calls you to people that are not peaceful also. But God's called you to help them. And that's when you got to suck it up to help them. Like David was in that scripture. They're all bitter and quipping. And what what did David do? He didn't whine. He got up and he encouraged himself in the Lord. He inquired of the Lord. Then he went to his mighty men and said, "Now we're going to go to war." >> A good leader has the capacity to raise people out of the pit of their bitterness. and to rally around him to go into war to recover everything. >> Amen. >> When you follow a good leader, doesn't mean everything's always going to be peachy. >> There are going to be tough times. >> But a good leader will know how to lead you through that tough time. >> And you will get through on the other side. Amen. >> And you will recover everything that you lost and then twice as much as well. >> Amen. >> Amen. So following a good leader doesn't mean everything's going to be perfect all the time. >> Well, we we're going through a hard time in this church. Well, you know, he must he probably is not a good leader. Who told you that? Is there anybody more perfect than God? You think he was a bad leader? Didn't Lucifer decide to actually start a re a coup against God? >> He did. Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> It's getting very quiet in here today. >> Pin drop silence. >> But see, I I got I got to deal with these things this morning before I head out >> because I'm here to help the church. >> Amen. >> You know, I what I'm trying to do right now is trying to get rid of anything that stands in the way of growth, >> you know. And once that happens, then you're then you're ready to receive all that heaven has. And this I'm telling you, this building is you're not going to be here too long. >> You know, it's time to move out of here. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. I'm believing God that you guys will be out here out of here in the next 90 days. >> Amen. >> This this this is where I feel the anointing right now. This is this is where you might have started. >> Yeah. Well, this is not where you're going to remain. >> Yeah. There is a building. There's a donkey that's waiting for you that's already been tied up. >> Just got to go there and say, "The master hath need of it." Yeah. Yeah. You know, it's very crazy. It's like for me, this is like a It's like going back to the story of me being in India in that little town. >> In nine months, they had that building. Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Oh, you better get ready. >> You better get ready. >> Hallelujah. >> You better get ready. >> You better get ready. You better get ready. What God's about to do is going be big. It's going to be bigger than anything you ever ever imagined it to be. Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Thank you, Jesus. >> Yep. Yep. I love this. Then David said to Abi, the priest, Aimilec's son, please bring the ephod here to me. And Abia brought the ephod to David. So David inquired the Lord, saying, shall I pursue this troop, and shall I overtake them? He answered them, "Pursue, for you shall surely." Underline that word surely. >> When God says surely, it means surely. >> It don't mean surely. It means surely. >> God shall surely shall surely give you the power to overtake. >> For you shall surely overtake them. Oh, I like this. Without fail. >> Without fail. >> Recover all. >> Amen. >> Without fail. You won't fail. >> Look at the person next to you and say, "You won't fail." >> You won't fail. >> Say, "I'm not going to fail." >> I'm not >> This church is not going to fail. >> This church is not >> Oh, we're not going to fail. >> We're not going to fail. >> Hallelujah. >> Hallelujah. >> Now, I'm going to skip through all the host. You can take your time and read it, but I'll just read this one portion. sound like a jihadist in our midst. Oh. Now, now David, David and his mighty men get into the war and they go there, recover all just like the Lord said that they would recover all. But now, here's the amazing thing. Some of David, David's men went to war with them. The rest stayed behind. Now, this is for the leaders. Now, pay attention to me. The less the rest stayed behind. When David came back from fighting the battle, David took all the loot and he distributed equally to everybody. Those who stayed behind and those that went into battle both. >> But those that went to battle with him were now upset and said, "Why are you helping them? They never fought with us." The reason David was a man after God's own heart was when God gave David the victory, he didn't just think about himself and the ones that went to war with him. He thought about even those that were left behind. >> And the the the reason behind why they were they they stayed behind was because they were too tired to go. Amen. >> So many times what happens is this. Many times a leadership the leader tries to help certain people >> and other people try to criticize well they did they they didn't do this and they didn't do that. Yeah. But the leader is looking at the treasured earth and vessel. >> Amen. >> Amen. >> So our job is to find the treasure in somebody and raise that treasure up >> as leaders. Amen. But sometimes some people don't want that to happen. Then what do you do? You give it time. You try. You do your best. Three, four, five years, you give it your all. But then let's say they don't change. Then at that point, what do you do? At that point you have to understand that some people don't want to change >> and don't be attached to their potential. >> Many people are not attached to the person attached to their potential. >> Of what they could be. >> Amen. >> Amen. >> If they don't want to see the break, there's nothing you can do about it. And I'll share this with you. I remember one time somebody came to me and said, um, you know, pastor, I I I want to, they came from an interview and said, "Well, I want I really want to join this ministry." And whatever. Gave me the whole spiel. And they said, they also added this, but he said, you know, I know I'm going to be here for a season and the time comes when the Lord leads me on, you know, I I'm going to go into what God's called me to do. I smiled and I said, "All right, no problem." I said, "Uh, be here for a season, but if the Lord tells me to fire you, I will, too." How is it that you can come here for a season and I can't fire you? Then you're offended. Huh? >> Why is that? >> So you can come as you wish and leave as you wish, but I can't fire you as I wish. >> Wow. >> If God can surely tell you to move on, God could tell me to move you on too. And also watch out for people that say things like, "Let me pray about it." If you have to pray about it, you shouldn't be here.

Get out. Amen. You better have prayed about it before you met me. That's right. You're not here to figure out. This is This is not like Dline NBC. Let me go weigh out my options. Amen. This isn't love is blind. Let's figure out what's behind that door. Either you're called somewhere or you're not called somewhere. That's true. People look at me like Evangel is just like, you know, he's just always on everything all the time. Yeah. Cuz I'm not double-minded. Amen. Amen. Say with me, I'm not going to be doubleminded. I'm not going to be doubleminded. I'm going to be single-minded. I'm going to be singleminded. Because America is all about convenience. It's not about It's It's all Everything is marriage is convenience. Church is convenience. Everything is convenience.

But things of God are not about convenience. It's about a commitment. That's the problem with America. That's why we're such a mess in America. Everything's a is is a convenience. As long as it's convenient, I'll be here. When it's not a convenient, I'm not going to be here. All right. Fine. But see, I believe that God won't raise a people of convenience here. Amen. That God will raise a people of covenants. Amen. That will stand together. That will go to war together. Amen. That will win this city together. Amen. Amen. And that's what I'm believing God for all of you.

Now, by the time I see you next, the place is going to be jammed. I'm not talking about this building. I'm talking about the bigger building. Amen. What if What if the Lord gave you 500 people before the end of the year? Amen. Okay. Not over here. I said, what if God gave you 500 people before the end of the year? And I give you my word. The minute you get your new building, I'll be here for another week of week of meeting. Even if it means it happens the next two months, I'll be back in two months. I'm telling you, I'm not Here's the deal. That's my deal with you. I'm going to treat this church like it's our church. And we're going to do everything in our power to help this church. Cuz Pasadena and Houston needs a church like this. Hallelujah. Glory to God. Glory to God. Hallelujah. I'm sharing the things that I'm sharing because I I believe in this church. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I mean, they came to San Antonio, Texas to my meeting. They didn't even know who these two were. No clue. I pulled them out. I said, "God's hands upon you. God's going to use you in the ministry and everything." I prophesied the whole thing. They didn't even know who he was. I brought them to the back room, not even knew knowing who they were. And then I found out I was like, "Oh yeah, we we have mutual friends, you know. I'm telling you, you two, you better listen to me. Come stand over here. Lift your hands up the Lord. I say this under the anointing and the uncction of the Holy Ghost. On this day, every barrier that stood in your way will stand in your way no longer. Amen. And the Lord's going to raise you up as a catalyst for the kingdom of God. Hallelujah.

That the Lord, here's what I see in my spirit. I see a mega church. And I know people don't like mega churches. I couldn't care less. You don't want to make a church, go down the road, find a church that's been shut down since COVID 19. But this church, I see it growing so exponentially. Hallelujah. I see a building with risers. Wow. It's like a I see like a it's it's the building the building it's almost there's like it's like ovalshaped like risers all around like this and I see thousands flooding in from everywhere. And the Lord says when I bless you continue to make room for my spirit. Do not get into the mode of trying to please men. See, the one one the one thing a lot of pastors do when the Lord begins to bless them, they begins to multiply them now, they want to keep people in the pews and then they make no room for revival. But the Lord says, "Continue to make room and I will fill it." And the Lord says, "Dig a ditch and I will fill it." Do not wait. Start stepping out in faith. And today as I lay my hands upon you, the gift of faith is going to come upon you. The gift of faith to do great things. Hallelujah. The gift of faith to do great things in the name of Jesus. Father, everything that you've given me that's holy, godly, and pure that can build the kingdom of God, I release a supernatural impartation of the gift of faith to do the extraordinary things in the name of Jesus.

I see a building that's not going to be here. It's going to be closer towards Houston. And I know some people not going to like hearing that, but that's what's going to happen. I say that on the anoint of the Holy Ghost. And I see another build, a second building the Lord's going to give you. In Houston, Texas, in fact, I see five major campuses across Houston, Texas. Yeah. Yep. That's what I see. I see it. Hallelujah. Yeah. Yeah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. It's going to happen. Yeah. It'll happen. Surely. Surely it shall happen. Yeah. And I see the wealthy coming in. I see people coming to get behind you. Millionaires, multi-millionaires, billionaires coming to get behind this ministry. Yeah. It'll be a catalyst in this city. But the Lord says, "Don't get distracted. Focus on this city and I will give you the growth." Oh, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Lift your hands up across this place for a moment, please. I pray even right now an anointing will come upon everybody that the Lord would make you skilled craftsman that will be a great help to this church and to this ministry. heavenly downloads, people with a heart of faithfulness, people of covenants. Great are you, Lord. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Oh hallelujah. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah. Oh blessing I'll bless you. Multiplying I'll multiply you. The Abrahamic blessing.

Oh, thank you, Holy Ghost. Thank you, Jesus. Oh, hallelujah.

Then the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time out of heaven and said, "By myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, you have not withheld your son, your only son. Blessing, I'll bless you multiplying. I'll multiply your descendants, the stars of the heaven, and as as the sand of the seashore. Your descendants shall possess the gate of your enemies. In your seed, all the nations of the earth shall be blessed because you have obeyed my voice. So Abraham returned to his young men and they arose and went together to Bashibba. And Abraham dwelt in Bashibba. So God's going to bless you. Blessing. He's going to bless you multiplying. He's going to multiply you. Every single one of you here, you are going to multiply supernaturally in Jesus name. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You're going to multiply. You're going to multiply. You're going to multiply. Hallelujah. You're going to multiply. You're going to multiply. You're going to multiply. Blessed shall you be in the city. And blessed shall you be in the country. Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground, the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle, the offspring of your flock. Bless shall be your basket, your knitting bowl. Blessed shall you be when you come, and bless shall you be when you go out. The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face. They shall come come out against you one way. They'll flee before you seven ways. The Lord will command the blessing on you in your storehouses in all to which you set your hand. And he will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you. There's a land the Lord your God is giving you. The Lord shall establish you as a holy people to himself just as he has sworn to you if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in his ways. And all the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord and they shall be afraid of you. And the Lord will grant you the plenty of goods in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and the produce of your ground, the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you. The Lord will open to you his good treasure, his heavens, to give the rain into your into your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. The Lord will make you the head and not the tail. You shall be above only and not be beneath. If you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and be careful to observe them, so you shall not turn aside the words which I command you this day to the right or to the left, or go after other gods, or serve them. That's going to be your portion. That's going to be this church's portion in Jesus name.

Thank you, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus. And I'll finally, I'll wrap wrap it up with this. Stand with those you're called to be with. Amen. Be the first line of defense for the church. Amen. For the pastors. Don't let Satan's agents infiltrate the church. And how do you know somebody is Satan's agent? This is how they start their conversation. You know, Pastor Rudy is great, but then do you know that person Satan's agent? Anybody that tries to undermine leadership. Amen. And it's not your job to correct leadership, it's those who are over the leadership. Amen. And it's also the job of God to take care of that. What you do is you pray for them. Amen. So, it's important what I'm sharing with you is very, very important this morning. And I believe that God's going to raise every single one of you up in a mighty way. And I'm I promise you, God's going to raise up great ministers out of this place. I'm telling you, because you're going to need a lot of ministers to run five campuses.
