Caught up to a place where David was by himself. Maybe that's where you are, the lonely place. A better place, hated by thousands, tens of thousands, loved by few. But most importantly, by God. Knowing that He was the only source of strength, he sought after that one thing that every man is honored to ask for: the sacred filling of the soul, the Holy One.
David lifted up his hands, lifted up his heart. "We cried, 'My soul seeks You, searches for You in a dry and thirsty land.'" I'm caught up there where he stood, and suddenly the wind began to blow. He said, "My heart is steadfast, my heart is fixed. I will sing praise, yes, I will praise You." He lifted up his hands and his heart. He had to worship the Lord.
Suddenly, there was a tearing through steel, and it was no longer dry and thirsty. But then, the consequence of the sacred filling of the soul with the celestial light came to him, as it comes to you right now. And suddenly, darkness no longer seems an issue because that one celestial ray brings light way beyond what we've ever seen. And the fire, certainly the firewood, comes with that spirit. It is consecrated nature on a blaze. The sensitive spirit, right now, all over the world, watching. Don't hold back. Close your eyes. Lift your hands. And the Holy Spirit, I pray, fill them right now. Felt annoyed by it? It's happening to you right now. As I said before, you can never overestimate the consequences of that sacred filling of the soul. Presently, right now, there is light, there is fire, and there is rain. There's water, heavenly dew that removes feminine, fertilizes our lives, is present right now. Suddenly, there is no such thing as past, present, or future. We are beyond the veil of limitation. Beautiful.
David is surrounded by the celestial. He's no longer thirsty, he's no longer afraid. He is standing face-to-face with the Word and says these words: "I'm alone, but yet I'm not. Living inside of me is a fire that is consuming me. I am the king of Zion. No, my enemies come against me, I will praise Him. Now I behave as a king and lift my hands. I live according to my destiny. I live according to the future that is present within me." And what I pray for every man and woman all over the world, they know there is a living destiny inside of them. Ignited, Lord. Lit the faith of the future. Take over the presence. Thank You for that.
Wow, you guys feel what I felt? Hmm. Was just me. I was caught up. I was caught up for a few minutes, absolutely taken by this whole thing. I feel like there's so many thousands of people that are just grasping at that, just that light that is visible right now. Lord, I grasp that light, but it is present. Let them do it now. North, south, east, and west. Live, come to life. Nobody's happening right now. As I'm taken beyond the veil, I'm hearing so many different sounds that I've never heard before. Begin the elderly and the children, an amalgamation of the two voices. It's a stranger sound, an old voice and a young voice, and it sits together. It's like there is no age in the sound. I'm in the spirit, and I very solemnly, this happens to me, but I'm at least I have my compulsion. This is important for the few seconds or whatever it was. I really know how long it was. I sensed, I heard, I couldn't see sounds that I've never heard before. It was not wicked, it was beautiful. The hearts of the fathers back to the sons, the spirit of Elijah that is coming upon the earth. Oh, like we have never seen before. Why do you think He wants to kill our children? A sound like we have never heard before, that I have never heard. I hope I live to see it, but there is something beyond this veil, way that we can never imagine. I pray, Lord, that each warrior would receive just a glimpse of this future. That You will reign upon land upon land upon land, on schools, colleges, prisons. Let that church emerge that we know about, that is in existence, in existence now. Lord, I'm back in the year 2013 versus 2027. We will I be the children that You've given to us to look after, in the many thousands and tens of thousands, and we will reach. What I pray for strength in every person's life right now. Pray, Lord, our children, our grandchildren, our descendants would be blessed and take at what they would, it would possess the gate of the enemies. I pray for that right for America, the land of the free, brave, what the cowards? I pray they would rise up again. The lion countries, because we have a servant, O Lord, from originally Scottish trailer. He had two other countries. He will stop land his feet. Pray for him and his family. I pray for every home and life represented here today. And Lord, whatever happened here would be taken into their homes and spread like wildfire. I give You thanks. You and so.
You may say, "Well, why? How can you still smile? How can you still praise?" Because it doesn't matter what I see, what I feel. My faith tells me, my prophetic faith tells me that I've, it's gonna be okay. How do I know this? Let's talk about a little bit about time so we can just give him the same page. Because what a policy illness did on Saturday was beginning to tell us something very important. Taught many of you something. Many wrote in and said that was so greatly blessed by you dealing with that, because it is a major problem that even Jesus dealt with. Jesus Himself spoke about the fact that they did not discern the time, and that was a huge problem. Now, let me to me, she is something about the variations of time. There are times of trouble, times of chastening, times of crisis, times of opportunity, a point at times, times of judgment. However, and this is what we're going to remember, times of refreshing, times of restoration. God gave us these times for a reason. Now, you may be going through something. In a Solomon so wise, he told us there is a time and a season for everything, and goes through the opposites, which means whatever you possibly are going through now, you will have the opposite very soon. We've seen that. Why is it that we think persecution should not be a time, but it should be a dwelling? Why is it that we feel as Christians that because Jesus said we are going to be persecuted, that we will be constantly persecuted? These own there are only times for that. So I want to remind you that there are also times of refreshing, times of restoration, times of healings, times of prosperity, times of opportunity. They are beautiful things out there that we're not looking for because we are so moved by what's happening at the present time. You know, I shared this before when we were talking about Matt and and and me as surgery, and I came on this platform and I said, "We, I call them miracle Matt and miracle Mia." And I was reminded of that because I had already seen the outcome. So, in other words, I'm not drawing faith from my present time, that's not enough. You have to draw faith and draw power from the future. Now, you may be saying, "Well, how do I know what the future holds?" That's what prophetic insight is, is to know what you look like in the future. That's always ready. That's where I got that one piecing in in Michigan. You're somewhere in the future, and you look much better than you look right now. And I make people say it over and over, say, "Just somewhere in the future." The reason I said that was because it cannot be worse. Yes, you may have tragedy, yes, you may have sickness, yes, you may have challenges, but in the midst of all of that, as Isaiah heard the angels saying when he was at the throne of God, "The glory of the Lord has covered the entire earth." And Isaiah was saying, "What are you talking about? All I'm seeing is political upheaval, all I'm seeing is religious persecution, all I can see all the problems, and I'm a man of unclean lips." Why? Because I'm saying when I see now, I'm not saying when I see then. This is the essence of the prophetic, is to be able to say, "I know the outcome. I know this may be a time of challenge, a time of pain, but I'm not gonna pray according to my time now. I'm gonna quite pray according to my time then." And I draw faith from the future. I draw power from the future. I draw insight from the future. Don't think it's a gift that only I have. You have it as well.
Let's read Acts chapter 3, verse 18 to 21. "But those things which God foretold by the mouth of all of His prophets that Christ would suffer has thus been fulfilled." In other words, it was spoken about by the prophets. They should have discerned the time. "He says, 'Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.'" Hold on, goes on. "So their times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord." Yes, the issue. Yeah. What does repentance do besides getting you back to the top? I even wrote a song about it based on Ellis' teaching to us years ago. "Paint being top three means get back." And I wrote that song, "If you really want to get back to the top, you got to lose something here below. If you really want to get back to the duck, you gotta lose something here below. Shake it off, shake it off, shake it off. If you really want to get back to the top." I wrote that based on a word that you gave Els in Detroit. And you know, the thing about it is, we think repentance should be tears and wailing and crying. It's getting back to the top, for goodness sake. So repentance, what does it do? When you realize that you've done wrong, you're wrong could be that you never discerned the time. You never understood. He says, "Repent therefore, because you didn't understand what the prophets had told about this day." And if you do that, your sins will be blotted out. But he goes on, he says, "Then you qualify for times of refreshing. You qualify for the presence of God." He says, "Times of refreshing will come from the presence of God." I'll tell you, the one thing that's lacking in the church is the presence of God, because we don't discern the time. And so it is very important that you understand that what is being spoken about time is for you, especially today, with all the reports and all the sermons and all the doubters, all the bad reports, media telling you and giving you one prognosis after the other, to know what the time is, and what was spoken about before, and where we're going as a result of it. And then he says, "If you repent, that the free-freshing comes from the presence of the Lord." He says, "He may send Jesus, who was preached to you before, whom heaven must retain, receive, or hold back." It's actually a very aggressive word. If you look at the original, it means the heavens must hold Him back. Why? Because Jesus wants to come. He says, "He has to be held back." The heavens must hold Him back. Yeah, until the times. Everybody say, "Times." Again, "Times." Until the times of restoration of all things. See, the problem with I have with in times, this is the end of time. They say it's not the end of time, it's the end times. But it's not the end of time, because heaven is holding Him back. And the reason heaven is holding it back is because there has not been times of restoration of all things. All in one. I truly believe that we are that generation that will see the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets. Everybody say, "Prophets." Since the world began. Okay. In other words, you can avoid the distress of certain times because you were prepared for it. Okay. Okay.
Let me give another story. Luke chapter 12. When I was in my garden praying, this one off. Thank God I'm back in my garden. I was back in my garden praying this morning, and I looked up Luke chapter 12, and it's a story. I may consider the whole story now of a master of a household who doesn't know the time and is not watching and lives without prophetic discernment. He, the story's about the man that the owner of the house turning up at an unexpected time, and this man was punishing and doing different things that the master of the house and wasn't prepared for. Man and receive punishment. So he receives punishment because this time was brought upon him by his actions and his lack of understanding of the times. In other words, he wasn't waiting, he wasn't watching, he didn't discern the time that his master came, and he was doing wrong. Now, I'm not saying that's what the story's about, but this is the scripture that this is the thing that Jesus says. Therefore, then you get this. Now, you also be ready. You also be ready. Limited something. Joseph knew the times by virtue of his gift. You've got to know your gift. Ella spoke about this. He spoke about the gifts of spirit, but then also the fruit of the Spirit, saying it's not fruits, it's the fruit of the Spirit. You have to know your gift. As he spoke and said so well that it forms character, and so you have to know your gift. If you're guessing and trying to work it out, and you don't know what your gift is, you're never gonna know. Because Joseph had a gift, and his gift was in dreams, so he stuck with dreams. The problem with us is we get dissatisfied with the gift that we've been given. Now, also another thing is, when is a gift necessary? When it is necessary. So, in other words, the gift of the Spirit can be made available to you at the appropriate time. So you've got to look for it and say, "Okay, God, I need to know what's going on." Now, let's talk about Joseph, just for a minute. Joseph took action by storing up because he saw the future. He stood, he stored up during good times so that when bad times came, there would be no bad times. You see, the problem is when bad times comes, everybody goes into bad times. When we, when bad times came for America, and I say this boasting in the Lord, we had no bad times, not according to the predictions that were given by news media. We didn't have it. You know why? Because in good times, we were sowing. A lot of people only start doing it in in difficult times. We sowed in good times, and that's what, you know, we have these people telling them, "Save food for 20 years," and all this stuff. I'm not talking about that. Joseph wasn't doing that. Joseph was doing that because wherever the Prophet goes, God so goes. Understanding the time you're in. Wherever the Prophet goes, you, wherever the Prophet goes, so goes. You know the time that's coming. Wherever the Prophet goes, there is prosperity available. So, in other words, I'm not a strong man, neither profit, but the prophetic gift inside of you is the very thing that will tell you this time is coming. Therefore, plan appropriately. So when bad times come, you don't have bad times. If I had nothing else to say about this, we've done enough.
Let me read you Hebrews chapter 1, verse 1 and 2. "God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son." Does Jesus prophesy? Absolutely. Jesus prophesies, and He is still prophesying through His ascension gift ministries today. We have a wonderful code breakers to share with you to tell you what time we're in. And most of you that have followed me will agree that there is an understanding of the time we're in. At times, I have been persecuted, I have been hated, I have been spoken against. Their attempts to hurt me. Why? Well, prophets always had their problem. But the problem was they living, walking, talking future. And when you're imprisoned, you don't like to hear it. It's like somebody sleeping in the morning, and somebody comes in shouting and waking them up. You'll hate that person, no matter how close you are to them. So it is with a prophet. They are bad times upon us. What are you talking about? It's looking good. Well, it's not only that it's spoken, excuse me, but also lived. We were able to grant other people help during the most difficult times the world has seen. And I do not, as I said to you, we get money from you, and we take it, and immediately we use it to help build the church, ecclesia, that which Jesus is building. Now, I could go on, but I'm not going to do it today because I just wanted to share that with you. And what I'm going to do next Wednesday, I'm going to show you how Jesus prophesied in John, and it came to pass many years later over Simon Peter, and Simon Peter was able to avoid death because he applied the prophetic word. Now, I'll share that next week. And that's where Jesus actually prophesied over Peter. And their prophecies going out today to make you aware of tomorrow. Well, I wouldn't know about today. You were told yesterday. Did you listen? Because you see, and you know, this is the problem I have with prophets of judgment and gloom. They stay in that time. Let me explain to you what I mean. There is a time, sometimes for judgment. There is a time for correction, chastisement. But you know, when when one of my children misbehaves and misbehaves, there's only a certain amount of time that you can chastise them. You know, stand over them and beat them all day long. If you do, you are stupid. Why would you do such a thing? It's only for a short period of time. Why do we go on and on and on telling people that God is chastising, judging us, and it's gone on for years? Surely there's a time of refreshing. Surely there's a time of restoration. That is the time we are entering in, and we've entered it a while ago. Miss min, most people don't get it, but many, many of you watching me have got it. You understand.
Ladies and gentlemen, 3,000 years ago, King David reigned over the Jewish state in our eternal capital, Jerusalem. I say that to all those who proclaim that the Jewish state has no roots in our region and that it will soon disappear. Throughout our history, the Jewish people have overcome all the tyrants who have sought our destruction. It's their ideologies that have been discarded by history. The people of Israel live on. We say in Hebrew, "Am Yisrael Chai," and the Jewish snake.
