We're not trying to do any of this to create an emotional response, Lord God. We're just wanting more of you.
Father God, I believe what we'll discover in the word as far as impartation goes is is your desire to give your children good gifts. It is your desire to move in power through your children. Father God, I believe it is your desire for all to be saved, saved, healed, delivered, and sanctified and come to the knowledge of the truth that we are sons and hes. Lord God, I just I just plead with you to enter into this place, to meet us here where we are. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
So, super simple. Would you like one?
I would.
Well, here. Let me give you a couple. In fact, I'm going to give you three different things. How about that?
Would you like one?
Yes, sir.
I'm going to give you different things than what I gave him.
Sure. Would you like a gift?
Don't lie. Don't lie to yourself.
Would you like a gift, sir?
Yes, sir. Some of them may look the same as what they got, but I promise they're unique to you.
You, sir. Both of them.
There you go.
Thank you, sir.
It don't matter if I ever. You just You just want more. It's good to want more.
Let's see.
Thank you. Are you sure?
Oh, did you get two of the Boom? There you go. Yeah. Listen, have any of y'all started to ask for specific gifts based on what you saw other people got? You know what I'm saying? Like, oh, I hope I get chocolate or I hope I get with you. Does that make sense? Like like I do that I begin to desire the things that I see that other people have.
I don't know.
Cameraman. Nick, would you like a gift?
Oh, yes, sir. Would you like one that's kind of like what your brothers get but unique all to you?
Yes, sir.
That's what I was hoping you would say.
Boom.
Thank you.
What about you?
I would love one.
Here you go. It's funny. My wife called me and she's like, "Man, we've got all this Easter candy in the house and the kids are going nuts." She's like, "I bet the guys would enjoy it. Would you want to come get it?" And I was like, "It's I like Yeah. I was like, "You know what? Let me come get it." Hold on. I said, "Let me come get it." And as I'm walking down to my house, I'm thinking, man, I don't ever use like props when I teach, but this is going to be a pretty good one because it literally like it doesn't explain it all, right? But I think that the Holy Spirit, we went over the gifts of Jesus. We've gone over that. And I believe that those are governmental uh gifts in order to uh what as we bring the kingdom into Abalene, Texas specifically that those are the ones that we set in place to establish the government of heaven in this place because how do you bring the kingdom without the government of heaven, right? And so through those we establish the government. But then through the Holy Spirit, listen, the Holy Spirit gives gifts. I believe that those gifts are gifts of power, powerful gifts, right? The word of knowledge, the gift of healing, the gift of faith, the gift of discernment. I mean, there's it goes on and on. Prophetic gift. There there's there's so many things that the speaking in tongues and and and and different and different things. There's it lists out in in in a few different places in scripture. And I believe that because we're his children, we are heirs and entitled to portions of that inheritance. Now, the story of the prodal literally tells the son, you've been here with me the whole time. You're entitled to all that I have, but he was unaware of it. I want to be aware of all that I'm entitled to. I want to receive that. Now in Hebrews 6 1-3 it says therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity. Now these things that it lists are the elementary teachings the basics. It says not laying again a foundation of repentance. Right? When in acts it's very clear they say oh my gosh we crucified the Messiah. What do we do now? And he says repent be baptized. be filled with the Holy Ghost. So, repentance, that thing that says, "God, I don't know how to do what you've called me to do, but I know I want you. I don't know how not to want women. I don't know how not to want uh uh money or or a nice car or any of those things, but I know that you now at this point have become the most important thing I've ever encountered, and I want more of you. Teach me your ways, God." It says uh repentance from dead works, the things that we do to try to earn it over and over and over again and of faith towards God and of instruction about washings. And here it is, the laying on of hands. The only other time, so this the Hebrew translation, right? The original the Torah was written in Hebrew and the book to the Hebrews was written in Hebrew. And that phrase, those words, the laying on of hands, the only other place in all of scripture that it's used is in the book of Genesis. And whenever who knows the story of Jacob, the deceiver, the son of Abraham's name was Isaac. And Isaac had a bunch of kids, but the ones that came out as twins were Jacob and Isaac. I don't know if he had a bunch. And Huh? Esau. That's what I meant. Uh, Jacob and Esau. and and Esau came out first and Jacob comes out grabbing onto his foot. There were so many times that there were lies. I think Chuck did a very good job. I think it was Chuck that that kind of painted that picture about how Abraham had lied about his wife and then Isaac had lied about his wife and then his son was born into iniquity, born as a liar and as a deceiver. Yet all 12 tribes of Israel are established through Jacob. And what happened is he goes in as Isaac is dying and his eyesight is failing and he puts on fake wool because Esau was like a manly manly dude. He had really hairy really hairy burly guy, right? Good at everything. Hunter, all these things. And so Jacob puts wool on and pretends to be him. And Isaac lays his hand on and passes the inheritance, the supernatural inheritance. And the way we know there's something substantial there is whenever Esau comes in, he says, "That wasn't me. That was my brother. He deceived you." Isaac said, "What do you want from me? I've already given it. I've already given it." That's the laying. I've already done what it took to give the inheritance. It says the resurrection of the dead is a foundation of our faith, right? Because Christ was resurrected. Without the resurrection, what is hit the hanging on the cross? Without the resurrection of the dead, there's no redemption after I've been washed of my sins. So, resurrection of the dead is a foundational part of what we believe. And eternal judgment, and this is this we will do if God permits. 2 Timothy 1:6-7 says, "For this reasons I remind you, fan into flame the gift of God." The gift of God. Anybody got a piece of candy I gave them? I'm not saying that's a gift of God. Although if you got a Reese's, it may feel like a very heavenly heavenly gift. But it's that simple. He wants to give you something. You just got to ask. That's why I asked each man, do you want a gift? Do you? I want a several. I want to be whatever it takes to be effective.
Yes.
In the kingdom we have. Listen, look around. Think about the men that left last week. Now, I don't hold on any guilt or or take a burden on their leaving was their choice. However, I believe if we move in power, if there's a unity that begins to occur in such such a powerful unity that the power of the Holy Spirit that I believe flows from a position of love as defined in 1 Corinthians 13, that if we can tap into that place, that there will be a power in this house that is undeniable, that people will be attracted and drawn to it because they'll recognize that the power of God is in this place. Not so that we're magnified, but so that his kingdom is magnified. And that comes from how we love one another. Says, I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God. I want a gift to so that we can operate in power for the people that don't know him yet. Do you remember what hell it was before you knew him? The glimpses of peace that you found now. Even if you're not fully there, even if you haven't fully matured, have you had moments of peace? Honestly, who hasn't? If you haven't, we want to specifically pray that you experience that. But if you have, then wouldn't you want that for everyone else? Don't you know that if everyone could encounter that and everyone could experience that, how well we would all work in unity? Because we would know what the deceiver does that he drives wedges and creates discord. It says which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God gave us a spirit of not of fear but of power and love and self-control. As we today wash your feet, we're going to lay hands on you just like we're at the conference and some of you got the hands laid on you and we're going to pray that God just bless you with whatever he feels like you need to fulfill the call of God on your life that he fully empower you with the Holy Spirit. And this is what I'll tell you to tap into that though, you'll have to surrender your life to that definition of love because it never seeks its own. And to move in that kind of power and authority is going to take a surrender to the very character of who God is. 1 Timothy 4:14 says this, "Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given to you by prophecy when the council of elders laid their hands on you." Now, obviously, Antoine, myself, M, Mr. Peters, my wife is going to try to get down here. She's having to watch kids. She's usually a part of this cuz I believe that we are one and I believe that I I operate more in authority and I believe that she operates more in the supernatural giftings of God. And so uh and so she's usually a part of this. But this is the what I look for is I whenever I'm washing your feet, I'm asking God to show me who he sees. And so you might get a prophetic word and sometimes that prophetic word is enough to stand on. I can tell you this. Two weeks before Shiloh uh got the news that his fiance was healed of cancer and the tumor was gone, the word I gave him was that I saw uh two children pointing at a picture of an older couple saying, "You remember when grandpa prayed for grandma and she got healed of cancer?" And so I'm just telling you like sometimes a prophetic word gives you something to stand on, to persevere with. My my favorite one that I've ever been received is the first one I ever got given. And I've been given a lot of prophetic words at this point. But my first one was you're going to suffer for a time and then God himself will restore you. And I go back to that one over and over and over cuz one thing that I understand about this life of laying down your life and carrying your cross towards crucifixion is that there's going to be suffering. And if there's specific pastoral, evangelical, uh, prophetic, apostolic, teaching, uh, calls on your life, there is specific sufferings for those callings. And so that's why it's always you got to say, Lord, I let me allow me to count the cost. Whenever you're getting prayed for, as you're sitting there waiting for us to do this, start counting the cost of the call of what it looks like, you you're going to have to make those choices. You're all called. If not, you wouldn't be here. You would have died. You'd be in prison. Like, we we did we did everything we wanted and yet God brought us to this place.
You know what I mean?
And so, I just encourage you to prepare yourself, right? We're just going to invite the Holy Spirit into this place. We're going to invite the Holy Spirit into this place. We're going to welcome into this room. We're going to put up everything. We're going to put up our Bibles. We're going to put up our the literature. We're going to put up everything. By all means, listen, if you have questions, right now is the time to ask. Do anyone have a question about what we're about to do? So, let me explain. I'm going to wash your feet. Some of you have been through this process before. There's something about understanding the true nature of leadership in the kingdom. Whenever it comes to washing feet, there's people, the same person that did the video about him, you know, he's like, you know, God did that. You know, Christ did that to show to humility and God of all creation will. I'm like, okay, cool. But it's a great example of leadership. Jesus set a great example of if you want to lead, this is what it'll look like. What I believe God spoke to me was if I didn't love you as I loved my own children, then this ministry wasn't real. And so, we're going to wash your feet. I'm not a good I'm not going to scrub your feet. It isn't petty time. I'm going to throw a little water, rub a little on the top, say a little prayer, and then help you dry those bad boys off.
just so nobody has any unrealistic expectations.
But my prayer is that God show me he show me show me something that you need. My prayer is that you receive it. Scripture says, and I'm not calling myself a prophet when I say this, but I know that this is what the word says. It says, "Entertain a prophet in the name of a prophet, receive the prophet's reward." I believe that one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit that God gave me is I believe sometimes I do tap into the prophetic. And my prayer is that you receive a word that you that gives you a little something to stand on. He's the word, you know, and so you just begin to stand on that and you begin to seek him out knowing how he sees you or what that could look like that you are eagerly receive whatever it is God wants to pour through his Holy Spirit into you that would allow you to become more available to him and more effective in the kingdom so that somebody somebody might experience free air. We're just trying to add one more. Just one more to the number. Can I be available so that they see you in me and say, "I I want some of that."
Father God, right now, I just again, Lord God, I I just I just I'm waiting. I I believe I'm beginning to feel the presence of God in this place. That I'm beginning to feel the weight of him in the room. I just invite you to come just to settle. All of this is just a good show. If you're not here, all of this is just us acting out what we think we believe. If you don't show up, I just ask you to show up, Lord. I just ask you to show up, God, to change the men in this room to give them good gifts. good gifts that would make them effective for you. That they would experience the joy of watching someone resurrected, watching someone reconciled. That they would have the joy of answering those fundamental questions to their children. That they would experience your peace today and all distractions would go. that they would understand that you are coming back, that they are made holy through the blood that was shed. Just pour out your presence. Pour out your presence. Pour out your presence. pour out your presence in this place whenever I'm praying that for me this is what it looks like. So just now whenever I'm praying I just start seeing bundles of flowers. And what I know because he speaks a language I understand is in scripture it says that when we begin to give a praise when we begin to praise when we begin to worship it's a pleasing aroma to his nostril. And this morning whenever I got done at the gym when I got done at the gym I pulled up and it's springtime and I have a my wife has all kinds of flowers that come up in our yard and it was so overwhelming. I thought people were doing laundry until I got close and I said, "Thank you, God. How wonderful is that that the smell of flowers still on the vine would be overwhelming." And then in this moment, he shows me that to let me know what this is for him. I thank you, God. I thank you, God. I thank you, God. I thank you, Lord. All right, buddy. Pull off your boots. Leave one. Uh, leave one in there. Yeah, perfect. There you go. Thank you Lord. I just thank you Lord. Speak to me. Speak to me. I thank you Lord God. Thank you Lord. Come on. Just put another one.
Yeah, I just noticed that.
I don't want to get your parents wet. Go ahead and put them in. Father God, I just thank you, Lord God, right now. I thank you for Jaden, Lord God. Father God, I thank you for what you're doing in this place. I thank you for who he is. Father God, I thank you for the man that you've called him to be, Lord God, that you will begin to reveal to him as you say he is. Father God, beautiful are the feet that bring the gospel, Lord God. Father God, spirit, Lord Jesus, I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. Father God, I thank you so much for Jimmy. I thank you for this man of God. Father, I just ask you, Lord God, right now, Lord God, that you would begin to work in him a new revelation of who you are, the good father, Lord God, that you will begin to show him the depths of revelation, Lord God, that only a son is allowed to enter into, Father God, that you would draw him near and close, Lord, that he would know you. I thank you, Lord. I thank you Lord. I thank you Lord. Jesus name. Jesus name. So I just saw like just this little metal clamp with a screw in it and then there were pieces like going all the way down this piece of wood but the screw would tighten and it would bring these thing these two things together. What I just think that like it means is that he's he's fastening you. He's fastening you and he's bringing the things together that need to be together.
Amen.
Father God, I thank you for Justin. Lord God, God, I thank you for who he is. Lord God, I thank you for this gentle giant, Lord God, that I I see his character, Lord God, his desire to connect, Father God. I see a layer of innocence, Lord God. Father God, I pray that you just begin to reveal your call, the call on his life, Lord God, the call as a husband, the call as a father, Father God, that you would bring that to the forefront that you he would let him know that you have a plan, Lord God. You have a full life plan for him. I thank you, Lord God, for who he is, Lord God. I thank you for the value that he has. in Jesus name. Did you ever break a bone where it came out of the skin?
No. Never.
It never came out.
There was no blood associ. What I kept seeing was like just like a bone that was was bloody. It looked like or like a car wreck or something happened, but I don't know. That's that's just what it was. So, not sure.
I've broken a lot of bones.
Well, maybe that's just what it is. Maybe it's about him healing things, you know. It's good. Proud of you. We're do I thank you for God. Father God, I thank you for adulthood. Lord God, I thank you for the man that he is, Lord God. The quietness of his character, the quietness of his presence. Lord God, he brings a stillness into the room, Lord God. Father God, sometimes what we need to know is to be still, Lord God. Father God, he brings that with him when he comes that there can be that we can be still, Lord God. Father God, I pray that you just bless him, Lord God. Father God, bless him with deep revelation. He knows you, Father God. He knows who you are. But I ask that you unfold a new layer, Lord God. Like unfold in a shirt, Lord God. just expose another piece that it would be new and that it would be a little bit deeper. In Jesus name I pray. See your foot. So I didn't I I didn't see anything. What I did, the impression that I got was that you bring stillness into a room that a lot of times what men need to know is to just be still. And some and I never saw that as a gift until just now. But you coming into a room and bringing a calmness and a stillness is a gift. And it's especially a gift to some of these young men that don't know how to be calm, that think stillness is stagnant. And so I just bless you that there would be increase in that. And in that you would get approached in that people would begin to feel the peace that comes along with being still in Jesus name.
I actually got that word um in class or a day before I heard be still and know that I am God and and that stayed on my mind for a while.
Wow. So I think it's a gift that I think that may be the gift that you get where it becomes a tangible presence of him. So man, bless you. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. Oh, damn. Got it. Hold on. Hold on. We'll get all of it out of there just so you the little fuzz balls go. There you go.
Huh?
I'm good. I'm wonderful. Thank you. I thank you for God. I thank you for my brother Romero, Lord God, for his loving heart. Father God, his desire that to just want to hug people and tell them that he loves them and lift them up and encourage them, Lord God. Father God, I believe that the revelation that you've given him is deep, Lord God, and wide, Lord God. Father God, teach him how to understand what it is that you're speaking to him. Teach him how to put it into reference, Lord God, that he would begin to understand how to deliver the words that you're giving him, Lord God. Father God, I bless him, Lord God. Father God, with good gifts, Father God, that you he would be open to you, that he would receive, Lord God, in Jesus name I pray. Amen. I think that I I believe that God wants to start putting everything in order.
Yes, sir.
I think that there's a whole lot of vision. I think there's a whole lot of He's opened something up to you and you don't have the framework for it.
Yes, sir.
And so there's no I think what you might be struggling with is putting it in order so that you know how to speak it. You know how to lay it out.
Yes, sir.
What I would encourage you to do is start writing. Start writing what you feel like the go that God has shown you. No matter even it's just describing it.
Yes, sir.
I feel like that would be a better word. Instead of trying to put it in a legible, just describe what it is that he's showing you.
Yes, sir.
Does that make sense?
Yes, sir.
All right. Love you.
Love you, too.
All right. getting older.
Yeah. God, I thank you for Lucio. Lord God, I thank you for this man of God. Lord God, I thank you for the restoration that I've seen you settle upon him, Lord God. I thank you for seeing his countenant shift and the light come back, Lord God. I thank you for being able to witness how much he loves his wife, Lord God, and whenever his family came, Lord God, that he seen how excited they were to see him. Father God, I thank you for his presence as a husband and a father, Lord God. Father God, that you would begin to draw out of him those things that that are old wounds, ones that he doesn't talk about, Lord God, that you would bring them up so that they can be healed and removed. Lord God, that Father God, I thank you, Lord God. I thank you for what you're doing and what you're healing. Lord God, continue, Father God, give him good gifts to stand, oh Lord God, I pray a blessing over him and his family, oh God, that they would have everything I've ever prayed for, Lord. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. Throw this one down over here. Boom. I think that you need to really open up, dear counselor. I think there's a couple things you haven't talked about.
Yeah.
I think you need to open those up. That's what God was showing me. It's like a cut with a flap over it. You got it. You're going to have to expose it cuz he wants to heal you.
Yes.
He wants to heal you.
Okay. Love you.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Yeah. You're good to go. Father God, I thank you for Keyn. Father God, I thank you for the man that you brought here, who he is. Lord God, what you've called him to do and be. Father God, I thank you for his willingness to seek you out. Lord God, I thank you for his gentle spirit that wants to connect with people, the sensitivity, Lord God, that he has. Father God, I thank you, Lord God, that that you would move, Lord God, and you would reveal, Lord God, that you would search him out, Lord God, that he would have a willingness for him. Bless him, Lord God. Bless him with the gifts of your spirit that would grow the kingdom in Jesus name.
Do tepee mean anything?
Did you say
tepee?
Tepee?
Yeah, like Indian tepee.
Um, not specifically, but I could go on a rant about it.
Well, I just It was like a like three tepee, but they were like pencil etched, but it almost looked like mountains.
like three points.
That is
Anyway, that's what I saw.
Thank you so much.
Yeah. Love you.
Love you, too.
What's in your pocket? What?
Put that down over there.
Father God, I thank you so much for Pride, who he is, the man that you created him to be. Lord God, his gentleness and willingness, Lord God, his desire to know you and overcome, Lord God, his inquisitive mind, Lord God. Father God, that you would begin to bless him and fill him, Lord God. You would fill him, Lord God. Father God, I thank you, Lord God, that he would be filled, Lord, that you would affirm him and confirm him, that he would feel whole in this place, Lord God, that you would bring a wholeness in Jesus name I pray. So here, just one at a time. Okay, one at a time. Just give me one. Yeah, there you go. Perfect. Other one. So, hey, listen. So, one, you ever see how they make arrowheads? How they take flint rock and they chip it away and they use stone to make stone tools? So, that's what I was seeing whenever I was praying for you. Like, he's he's doing it. He's doing the work. But this is the other thing is that you have to be willing to let him make you whole to know that you're not missing anything. That there is nothing about who you are that isn't exactly how it's supposed to be. And no part of fatherhood would have changed that. That you're everything he designed you for.
Amen.
And and once you accept that, once you accept that, you'll be able to stand.
Amen.
I love you, Pride.
Love you, too.
Yeah. Oh, they're going to swap the water. Wait. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Holy. Holy. Look at this. Come on. Hello. Father God, I thank you for Joseph Les. Father God, I thank you for his desire to to be good. Lord God, his desire to measure up, Lord God. His desire to be what you've called him to be, Lord God. Father God, I ask that you pour out grace. You give him a great revelation of the grace of God, your absolutely unearned, undeserved love and favor, Lord God. That in this place and in this moment, he would know that at his worst, you loved him the most. That he would erase the list of his wrongs because you've already burned it up. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. God, I thank you. I thank you, Jesus. I thank you, Jesus. I feel like God just really wants you to experience his grace. that thing. Listen, that thing where it was I don't the impression I get is like whenever you were a kid and you would it's like you were told like you're just going to be that you're just not doing it right. you're just why can't you be like this? And all of those lies, all of those lies are hindering you having the true revelation of the fact that he has he looks down on you and smiles. Every single time, every time, every time you think you've fallen, he's looking down, loving you, knowing your heart for him, knowing that you're going to come to yourself, knowing that you're going to walk down that road, and he is waiting. He is waiting to pour it out. Father God, right now I just speak in Jesus' name that the depth of grace, the revelation of you as the good, good father would begin to overwhelm him, Lord God, that he would have an encounter with your love, Lord God, that cannot be earned and never deserved, Lord God. And that's what makes it the beautiful gift that it is. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. Oh, Lord God, I thank you for sterling, sterling, refined silver. Lord God, Father God, you say that you will refine it, Lord God, that you will refine us and for all the impurities from us, Lord God, Father God, that you've begun this work in him and you will see it to completion, Lord God. Father God, that he would begin to understand what it is to be accepted and wanted, Father God, that he would be a part of in Jesus name. Pour out and a double portion, Lord God. Pour out a double portion of faith, Lord, in Jesus name I pray. Amen. So, I always call you by your last name, but what came to mind when you sat down was your first name. And then 0.925, right? Sterling silver. I had a man 3 years ago walked into my office and he had a little box and he opens this box and in it was a kilo of pure silver. And I read in scripture that how uh whenever they looked at refined silver it was almost transparent like translucent where you could see through it. And I remember that scripture when I owed it because it was so it was mirror clear. And what I see is the worth that God has begun he will complete. And that the more you're here the reason why you needed the extra time is to be a part of that's the part that's missing. you know, it's just the being a part of. But he showed me that 925. You need that tattoo like right here or something cuz it'll just be funny. But you know, anyway, I love you Ro Helio. I'm just thank you for that. I thank you for Roger. Father God, I thank you for Roger and who he is. Lord God, Father God, the weight of being a husband is heavy. The weight of ministry is heavy, Father God. To have entered into both at the same time is so hard, Father God, that you would begin to show him the depth of your care, Father God, that you would begin to show him, Father God, that you are still in that, that you're still with him, that you're still a part of him, Lord God. Father God, that you would begin to reveal to him the level of leader that he is, Father God. Father God, that he has a call to get to know people that need to be known. He has a gift, Lord God, where he can sit and love on the unlovable. But first, he has to know that he's loved. Father God, I thank you for who you say he is, God, in Jesus name. So, two things. one, you got to forgive yourself. Like the the weight of trying to enter into that ministry and into marriage at the same time is so heavy. And I'm telling you, I have learned how to be a minister because of my marriage. I have learned how to be a good leader because of my marriage. Everything stems and flows from that. And you and then listen, you took on a huge huge thing with your wife having cancer and having certain struggles and battles and listen and God knew it and he never left that. He's still in that. He's still in that and I can that I know and he wants you to know that. And then he showed me this. He showed me you love it on unlovable people. But it means you have to know you're loved first. The enemy always attacks the gift. So if your gift is to love on people, then it would mean that you don't feel loved. It would mean there's a part of you that disconnects and says, "Am I really worth that?" And then I saw a coyote with a multicolored coat like Joseph and it was like pastels. It was all different colors. And I just believe that you're meant to affect a multitude of people. I believe the testimony that you'll have in your marriage will help people trying to strike out in ministry and you'll be able to say, "Hey, focus on this. Learn it here." And I just want you to know that he's not done with any of that. He's still very much in the mix of it. All right. Love you, Roger. Father God, I thank you for Nick. I thank you for Nick Morales. I thank you for his rambunctiousness. I thank you for his eagerness. I thank you for his work ethic. I thank you for his abilities, Lord God. I thank you for how gifted you made him, Lord God. Father God, I thank you for the leader that he is, Lord God. Father God, lead him to you. Lead him to the place of surrender. Lead him to that place of revelation. He's ready. Take him, Lord. Take him, Lord. I play pray abundance, Lord God, in Jesus name. Look, hold on. I got you. Well, I'll try y'all first. So there's a a psalm where David is singing in a psalm and he's literally complaining about all the men that he's with cuz they were like thieves and robbers and debtors and adulterers and all this stuff, right? But that's the group that went on the run with David. And he's writing this psalm complaining like, "God, look who you've put me around." those exact men become the mighty warriors that they become so loyal to him that they have these stories. You got to read the stories of David's mighty warriors there. It's powerful and profound. If you've never read it, you need to cuz I believe that's what he's saying about you. Everything that everybody has always like got annoyed with you about, God intends to use your ability to push through, persevere, give 100%, go the extra mile. It's seen. It's noticed. It just needs to be refined so that you can turn into one of those mighty warriors. And man, are they impressive. They help build the kingdom. And he wants you to know that that's how he sees you. You weren't a mistake. How your mind works, how it races, it wasn't a mistake. He knew exactly what he was doing because he knew you would absolutely say yes. And when you said yes, there would be something that comes upon you. One of them, it says he he killed so many Philistines, his sword froze in his hand. I'm telling you, that's how he sees you. Love you, Nick. Love you, Colonel. Love you, too. Yeah. We're going to swap out the water real quick. Hold on. your mom's comments on Facebook or something else.
Are you serious?
She's like, "That's my son right there, the good-looking one on the front row." I'm like, "God, that's a total arm comment." I always want to kind of egg on a little bit of it, you know, just but Father God, I thank you for Christian. I thank you for his raw desire to be better. His desire for you to mold him and shape him, Lord God. His desire to know you intimately, Lord God. Yes Lord. Pour it out Lord God. Show him Lord God. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. So what I saw was like a like a lead blanket. Like you you know how heavy lead is, right? Yeah. And it was kind of like melted around the edges and then it it would be pulled back and underneath it was gold, molten gold. And so the way they make ingots is that they heat the gold and then they pour it in a lead mold and then they cover it so that then it can be broken out of that mold. And I just feel like right now everything he's doing is going to be magnified that he is refining it and he is cooking it and he is making something only he knows what it'll be in the end. And just keep your desire that he pulled it back. He showed me that you're the process where you're at that it's pure gold in Jesus name. Love you Christian. I thank you for George. I thank you for who he is. I thank you for what he brings to the program. I see an an essence of joy about him, Lord God. An essence of joy, Lord God. Father God, I pray Lord God, I pray Lord that you begin to move mightily, Lord God. That you not only fill him but overflow him, Lord God. In Jesus name. In Jesus name. In Jesus name. So check it out. So, what I saw was a little boy walking through an apple orchard or it looked like apples and he's pulling them. He has one of those, you know, those baskets are like they're that real thin wood and they have the slats that go down it with the wick like a little wire handles. It's like you were the little boy and you're pulling it and and what what I believe you have shown is you'll carry the essence of joy that that fruit that's a fruit of the spirit and then you'll have it in a you'll have a bushel of it and when you come in you'll be able to give it away at your leisure as prompted by him. You'll be able to dispense joy in Jesus name. Thank you. Father God, I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you for that. Father God, I thank you for Julius. Father God, I thank you for his desire to know you, his desire to mind the things, Lord God. Not so that he could wield any kind of power, Lord God. I just believe he just wants to know you. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. Just more, more, more, more, Father God. Just more, just more in Jesus name. In Jesus name. I think what God was showing me was Abrahamic friendship. That as you're pursuing just simplicity to know that he's going to do something so much more than that. That you'll become a friend to God. That you'll be able to talk to him and meet him. You'll plead on others behalf cuz you'll have his ear. cuz you'll be his friend and he'll be yours in Jesus name. Love you, Julius. Thank you Lord. I thank you. I thank you. I thank you Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Father God. I thank you for grace, God. I thank you for the gift that he is, Lord God. Father God, not for the gift that he brings, but the gift that he is. Father God, as you begin to work these things for him, that in each layer, he understands the depth of your love. That he understands the call on his life. Thank you, Lord. I thank you Lord. I thank you Lord. I thank you Lord. I thank you Lord. I thank you Lord in Jesus name. So I just saw like a a scab and just a scalpel later right later working the scab. I saw leather pages with some of it was written in ketchup, but some of it was written in blood and then it went back to work on the scab. So, I think I believe what it means is some of it for you is real. And some of it for you is not and he's just going to keep working it until it all lines up. So, I just bless you in Jesus name. Love you. Absolutely. Love you, too. Lord God, I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. So, and up there in my office, my top desk drawer, there's a bottle of anointing oil. They're in It should be in like Ziploc bags. There should be a couple of brand new one of them. We have to wait. God very much told me just to do something. Thank you, Lord God. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. Father God, I thank you for this man of God. I thank you for his desire to be a better husband and a father. Lord God, I ask for clarity of vision for him. Lord God, that he understand that in his fatherlessness, Lord God, you've made him a father to me that there's an anointing in his life because he pursued love for his children past himself. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. I'm going to dry these off, but you have to stay in the chair. So, this can be a little bit weird. So, the word anoint means smear. They didn't do a a dab. They smeared it. And whenever you sat down, I felt like the Lord said, "You anoint the man of God. Father God, right now, Lord, Father God, that it would flow down, Father God, authority, Lord God, power, Lord God, Father God, that you would empower him with new things that he has never known. In Jesus name I pray. Amen. Oh, I know. I got there was plenty. I got it here. I got it. Just wait. Do you need this? Come on. Father God, I thank you, Lord God. I thank you for those that you anoint for service. Father God, in the first church, there were some that were anointed to serve, Lord God. And in that they it created a multiplication. It created a multiplication of the church. Father God, your word says greater are those who are seeing, but greater are those who are not seeing, Lord. Father God, the anointing of service to teach men how to labor unto you, Lord God. Father God, I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord. I thank you, Lord, that he would be blessed in him, Lord God, in Jesus name I pray. Amen. You didn't get the memo.
No, I didn't get the memo.
Sorry.
I set realistic expectation for the feet washing earlier. You missed it. Listen. So, in the first church, they anointed deacons. And the deacons, what God showed me when I first started watching my feet is what they did is they would help set the tables. They would help organize everything, but it was literally like I saw one going and setting the flowers, you know, when they gathered. They didn't need flowers on the table. They didn't need that. But a deacon's heart, a deacon's heart would set the table so that when they came, everything was there. The environment was there. They created the atmosphere and it made it conducive for the other ones to experience God. And so I just bless you with that anointing in Jesus name I pray. Amen. Let me just show you. Nothing's organized. sauce and all the deals to anoint your toast.
It's good.
That's good.
You want me to rub your feet, Dean? Come on down.
I know he told you. Father God, I thank you, Lord God. Father God, I thank you, Lord God, for my peers, Lord God. Father God, that he would have a heart for those to know you, Lord God, that he would desire to know you intimately, Lord God, Father God, that you would begin to reveal him new things, new life. Lord breathe in Jesus name. In Jesus name. Yeah. I'm just holding it for the other one. There you go. So I just I saw coral a coral bed.
Okay.
In the ocean. Everybody wants to see the tropical fish. Everybody wants to see what's swimming. But the coral is what sustains it. The coral's there. It prevail provides safety. It provides nutrients. It's a collection point where small fish can hide from big fish. It's a place where life thrives. Without the coral, nothing thrives. I received that.
Only a handful of people recognize how beautiful Coral is.
I just want you to be loved. Love you, Mike. I know that was cool. My prayer is that you begin to walk in a way that makes no sense to who you used to be that makes no sense and who you were yesterday. Uh there's people that are going to uh say that like you can't impart things. I'm walking in this like a child. I'm not trying to mislead or deceive. I want us to have more. I I just want us to have more of him. Like I my hope is that you become known. That you go out and you you become known to your wife. that you become known to your children, that they begin to recognize your very presence as it turns down the block, that the community begins to respond because they know that God is near when you're near. And I don't I don't have all of the I I mean, we have the Bible and I'm diving in the best I can and giving you what I got, but I'm approaching it like a little kid. I'm approaching it like a little kid. He says, "Okay, here we come. Superpowers. I want Holy Ghost pistols." Y'all know my deal. I want to I want somebody to be very offended and get hit with hit with joy just one time. You know what I mean? Just an overwhelming expression of Christ's joy in that moment where they cannot even understand why he would do that for them because then it would reveal how good he is. The thing about joy pistols is they're silenced. I don't think I don't think you just pull it out. Gotcha. But I just want to do it once and then wait. Why not? I had a tendency to believe that reason he said there'll be a generation that does greater things is because we've been conditioned to have a great imagination in 2026. And I can imagine some pretty amazing things that I promise you they could not 20 2,000 years ago. And so I think I think we're primed for it. And it's all to reveal who he is so that someone will have access to our father. Lord, grab on to those two words. Our father. Our father. We're his children. He's our father. Father God, I thank you, Lord God, for just a room of men that would willingly seek more. Answer some of the prayers that that went up today by some of these men. Lord, show them show them that you love them more than they could have ever imagined. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
