00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:47,000
We need you Lord. And as the spirit was moving over the water, the spirit can't move over us. Come rest on us. Come rest on us.

3
00:00:47,000 --> 00:01:00,000
As the spirit was moving over the water, the spirit can't move over us. Come rest on us. Come rest on us.

You're hearing I know you are moving. I'm hearing I know you will feel me. Come and fill me up. Fire and wind coming to it again. Open up the gates of heaven on hand.

6
00:01:46,000 --> 00:02:05,000

7
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:25,000
And calm down. Spirit when you move you make my heart pound when you fill the room. You're hearing I know you are moving. I'm hearing I know you will feel me.

00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:29,960
Holy Spirit come rest on us

00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,600
You're all we want You're all we want

23
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,560
Come down and come down

24
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,840
Spirit when you move you make my heart pound

25
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,840
When you fill the room

26
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,120
You're here and I know you are moving

27
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,240
I'm here and I know you will fill me

28
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,120
Come down Spirit when you move you back

29
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,600
my heart capitues once again

30
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,480
I'm here and I know you are moving

31
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,400
You're all we want

32
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,680
Spirit when you move you make my heart pound

33
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,840
When you fill the room

34
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,400
You're here and I know you are moving

35
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:14,840
You're all we want

36
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:21,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

37
00:04:21,840 --> 00:04:23,840
You're all we want.

38
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:27,840
If you're all we want, you're all we want.

39
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:34,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

40
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:37,840
You're all we want.

41
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:40,840
You're all we want.

42
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:47,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

43
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:50,840
You're all we want.

44
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:53,840
You're all we want.

45
00:04:53,840 --> 00:05:00,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

46
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:03,840
You're all we want.

47
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:09,840
You're all we want.

48
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:13,840
The Word says that if we ask for bread,

49
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:16,840
He won't give us a stone.

50
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:20,840
So whenever we ask, Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

51
00:05:20,840 --> 00:05:23,840
He wants that invitation.

52
00:05:23,840 --> 00:05:25,840
He wants you to say with your mouth,

53
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:28,840
Holy Spirit, come and rest on us.

54
00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:30,840
And whenever we ask, He's a good Father.

55
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:32,840
He won't give us a stone.

56
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:34,840
He won't give us what isn't good.

57
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:36,840
What isn't good for us.

58
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:40,840
And whenever we ask for it, He wants to give it to us.

59
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:42,840
So can we lift our hands again?

60
00:05:42,840 --> 00:05:45,840
And we sing this out, Holy Spirit.

61
00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:52,840
And Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

62
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:55,840
You're all we want.

63
00:05:55,840 --> 00:05:57,840
You're all we want.

64
00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:05,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

65
00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:08,840
You're all we want.

66
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:10,840
You're all we want.

67
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:11,840
Sing it again.

68
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:18,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

69
00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:20,840
You're all we want.

70
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:22,840
Yes, you are Lord.

71
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:23,840
You're all we want.

72
00:06:23,840 --> 00:06:31,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

73
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:33,840
You're all we want.

74
00:06:33,840 --> 00:06:34,840
Yes, you are Lord.

75
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:37,840
You're all we want.

76
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:44,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

77
00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:47,840
You're all we want.

78
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:50,840
You're all we want.

79
00:06:50,840 --> 00:06:57,840
Holy Spirit, come rest on us.

80
00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:00,840
You're all we want.

81
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:04,840
You're all we want.

82
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:09,840
Yes, you are Lord.

83
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:16,840
This message is for you.

84
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,840
If you think, wow, you know what He's saying,

85
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,840
it would really help someone else.

86
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,840
No, this message is for you.

87
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,840
The Lord's been talking to me about you.

88
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:35,840
Because He wants you charged.

89
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:36,840
This is for you.

90
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,840
So if you start thinking, getting a little relaxed,

91
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:44,840
well, I really enjoyed that music, I did too.

92
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:50,840
But this part, this is for you.

93
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,840
In fact, let me go a step further and say,

94
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,840
you don't need to wait until the end

95
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,840
when we're going to have some time for prayer.

96
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,840
If you want prayer today, you don't have to leave.

97
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:05,840
We're going to pray for everybody that wants prayer.

98
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,840
But you don't have to wait for the end

99
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,840
because miracles are going to start happening

100
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,840
even right now.

101
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,840
You know why?

102
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,840
Because the atmosphere is charged.

103
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,840
He is here.

104
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,840
He, the miracle worker, is here.

105
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,840
Amen. Hallelujah.

106
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,840
Let's pray. Bow your heads with me.

107
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,840
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your precious Word.

108
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,840
And we thank You for the Holy Spirit,

109
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,840
who is our teacher, who is our guide.

110
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:43,840
And we trust Him today to live big on the inside of us,

111
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,840
to think through our mind, to speak through our lips,

112
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:55,840
and to unveil and open the treasure of the Word of God to us today.

113
00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:00,840
Lord, I thank You for utterance in the Holy Ghost

114
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,840
that we don't speak of ourselves.

115
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,840
But those things that we need to hear come forth

116
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,840
in the name of Jesus.

117
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,840
And we give You the glory. Amen.

118
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:26,840
So Acts chapter 1 verse 8 is our theme verse for this series.

119
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,840
Acts chapter 1 verse 8.

120
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:37,840
And as I said, we've been talking about able.

121
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:42,840
We want to keep talking about this theme of ability.

122
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,840
But we want to make it practical.

123
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:52,840
And this verse is actually the words of Jesus.

124
00:09:52,840 --> 00:10:02,840
It's what He spoke a little over a month after He was raised from the dead.

125
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,840
The Bible tells us that for 40 days He was seen by His disciples,

126
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,840
and then afterwards He was taken up.

127
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:23,840
He ascended in glory.

128
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:29,840
He was received up in glory.

129
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,840
But just before that He said these words.

130
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:41,840
He said, but you, talking to His disciples, the believers,

131
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,840
the Bible tells us about 500 people.

132
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:58,840
He said, you, you shall receive power, ability, efficiency,

133
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:04,840
and might when the Holy Spirit has come upon you.

134
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:12,840
And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in Judea and Samaria

135
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:17,840
and to the ends of the earth.

136
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,840
If we put this with the other accounts of that day,

137
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,840
it says, and after He said these things,

138
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:29,840
He was received up in glory.

139
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:34,840
And the 500 are there.

140
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:40,840
Don't make fun, I'd be doing it too.

141
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,840
The Bible says that an angel looked down and said,

142
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:54,840
hey, the boss said, go after you get power.

143
00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:02,840
God hasn't called us to do anything in our own strength.

144
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,840
In fact, we'll look at it later,

145
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:10,840
but it says that the disciples went everywhere

146
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:15,840
preaching the gospel and the Holy Spirit worked with them

147
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:21,840
and confirmed what they said with signs following.

148
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:26,840
That's what we're talking about this month, being charged.

149
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,840
If you start in Genesis, you can't see that God does anything

150
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:37,840
significant in the earth, that it doesn't start with a dynamic

151
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,840
encounter with His power.

152
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:47,840
Way before Moses stood in front of the Red Sea,

153
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:53,840
he got charged at a bush that wouldn't burn.

154
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:58,840
In other words, he had an encounter with something that kind of looked like fire,

155
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,840
but it was something else.

156
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,840
You know what it was?

157
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,840
It's not a what, it's a hymn.

158
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:15,840
Hymn the Holy Spirit.

159
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,840
Let's look at a verse in Ephesians together.

160
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,840
Ephesians chapter 5.

161
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,840
Ephesians chapter 5, for those of you that were with us in April

162
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:31,840
for Experience Ramaday, Patrick did an amazing job going through this,

163
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,840
and we have these audios available.

164
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,840
I would highly encourage you, if you don't have access to those,

165
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,840
ask one of us and we'll get those to you.

166
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:46,840
But I want to pick on just a couple of words here in this verse.

167
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,840
Let's look at this.

168
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,840
Ephesians chapter 5, verse 17, it says,

169
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,840
therefore, do not be foolish.

170
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,840
You should say that, don't be foolish.

171
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:07,840
You know the Bible has 200 verses in it that reference fools and being foolish?

172
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,840
That's a lot.

173
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:17,840
Don't be foolish.

174
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,840
Don't be foolish, but what?

175
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,840
Understand what the will of the Lord is.

176
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:30,840
Always read the word from a place of grace.

177
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,840
When I read that, you know what that says?

178
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:38,840
I can understand what the will of the Lord is for me.

179
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,840
It's not some hidden mystery that I'll never be able to discover.

180
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,840
I'm just going to try, oh, okay, that seemed to work out.

181
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,840
Let me try and...no.

182
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,840
It says, I can understand what the will of the Lord is.

183
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:57,840
And it's foolish not to.

184
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,840
Okay.

185
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,840
It's foolish not to understand the will of the Lord.

186
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:03,840
Got it?

187
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,840
So what is the will of the Lord?

188
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,840
Let's keep going.

189
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:15,840
Do not get drunk with wine, which leads to...here's an interesting word.

190
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,840
Debachery.

191
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,840
I like words.

192
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,840
I actually think in words.

193
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,840
Pastor Matt Beamer always encourages me to remember most people don't think in words.

194
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,840
I think in words.

195
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,840
Debachery.

196
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:38,840
He says, don't get drunk on wine, which leads to debachery.

197
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,840
What does debachery mean?

198
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,840
So I looked it up.

199
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:45,840
I looked it up.

200
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,840
Debachery means excess.

201
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,840
In fact, it means more than just excess.

202
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,840
It means excess with sensual things.

203
00:15:58,840 --> 00:15:59,840
Sensual.

204
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:12,840
Things that you can sense, feel, touch, taste.

205
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,840
Debachery.

206
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,840
So I think, hmm, who came up with this word?

207
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,840
The French.

208
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,840
The word in English, debachery, comes from a French term.

209
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:38,840
And the French term means, or its origin means, to entice or to lure away from something good.

210
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:44,840
To draw away from something good.

211
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:45,840
Debachery.

212
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,840
Let me ask you something.

213
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,840
Does that word sound familiar?

214
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,840
Does that word sound familiar?

215
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:59,840
Trenton, will you put up that next picture?

216
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,840
Who knows what that is?

217
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:09,840
That's where it is.

218
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,840
Trip is close.

219
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:19,840
It is the temple of Bacchus.

220
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,840
How many of you have ever been to Balbac?

221
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:28,840
If you've not been with me, then you really haven't been.

222
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,840
I'm joking.

223
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,840
I found this picture because I like to show what's inside of it.

224
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,840
I've been there several times.

225
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,840
And I like to see what's inside of it.

226
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,840
You know what's inside of it?

227
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,840
Nothing.

228
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,840
It's empty.

229
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:55,840
Great big stone building, 60-some meters long, 30-some meters high, 30-some meters wide.

230
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:56,840
I looked it up.

231
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,840
You guys know I don't know meters.

232
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,840
But it's empty.

233
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:07,840
Did you know that it took about 20 years for it to be built?

234
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:14,840
It was built after the first century, so construction began about 150 AD,

235
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:19,840
150 years after Jesus rose from the dead.

236
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,840
It was completed about 20 years later.

237
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:32,840
And then the practices of worshiping the idol Bacchus were outlawed

238
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:40,840
throughout the Roman Empire 11 years later.

239
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,840
Anybody know that?

240
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:43,840
It won't be on the test.

241
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,840
That's all extra credit.

242
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,840
So what were they doing there?

243
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,840
The temple of Bacchus.

244
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:58,840
And why am I talking about drinking is one of them.

245
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:13,840
In fact, the festival to the God of wine was unspeakable lewd sensual acts.

246
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:25,840
Drinking, narcotics, and lots of other things I won't mention.

247
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:31,840
It was so bad that the pagan Romans said,

248
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,840
we have to put a stop to this.

249
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:38,840
This is destroying our children.

250
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,840
Think about that.

251
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,840
That's a low bar, right?

252
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,840
They fed people to animals.

253
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,840
And they said, no, this is too much.

254
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:58,840
The children that were born from the things that happened in that building

255
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:05,840
became slaves in the temple.

256
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:11,840
Parents that didn't want to take responsibility for their kids

257
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:18,840
delivered them to this temple to be slaves.

258
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,840
Terrible.

259
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:25,840
Debachery.

260
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:33,840
Sin inside of it has a hook in it.

261
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,840
And that hook is slavery.

262
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,840
Look at this verse in Romans.

263
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:47,840
Romans chapter 6 says, don't you realize,

264
00:20:47,840 --> 00:21:00,840
don't you realize that you become a slave to whatever you choose to obey?

265
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:11,840
That word debachery comes originally from the worship of the God of wine.

266
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,840
Or let's say it a different way.

267
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:26,840
Giving place to and yielding to a spirit that would entice people away from doing right.

268
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:34,840
Now, where did we get off before I started talking about ancient Phoenician history?

269
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,840
Don't be foolish.

270
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,840
Understand what the will of the Lord is.

271
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:39,840
Great.

272
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:40,840
What's the will of the Lord?

273
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,840
Don't get drunk with wine.

274
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:43,840
Wait a minute.

275
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,840
Are you telling me I can't get drunk with wine?

276
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:46,840
You shouldn't.

277
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,840
You know, there are no great stories that begin.

278
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,840
First, I got really drunk.

279
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:54,840
Right?

280
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,840
That's how you tell this, how you got arrested.

281
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,840
That's how you tell how you lost your money.

282
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,840
That's not how you tell, then I had this great idea.

283
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,840
No.

284
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:14,840
Don't be drunk with wine which leads to slavery.

285
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:27,840
I said, you know, if you go there, you go to Balbac, you go into that, you see that room.

286
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:28,840
It's empty.

287
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,840
There's nothing in there.

288
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,840
And that's what sin is.

289
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,840
Looks really impressive from the outside.

290
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,840
That's even a Bible verse.

291
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:44,840
Chapter 11, verse 25 says that sin has pleasure for a season.

292
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,840
Looks pretty on the outside.

293
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:53,840
But inside, the only thing in there, slavery.

294
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:58,840
Slavery is where you are occupied by someone else.

295
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:06,840
You don't get to choose where you go or what you do.

296
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:16,840
You may have come in here today and some of you think you have it hidden pretty well.

297
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,840
But I have two things to say to you.

298
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,840
The sin that you think is hidden is not.

299
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,840
It's showing.

300
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:38,840
It's deception to think that no one sees it, that you have it hidden or that you're getting away with it.

301
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:48,840
But what I want to tell you is you don't have to leave here bound because there is absolute freedom in Jesus.

302
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,840
Absolute freedom in Jesus.

303
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,840
And it's not a process.

304
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,840
Colossians says we are translated.

305
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,840
That is supernatural movement.

306
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:08,840
Into freedom.

307
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:16,840
The will of God for everyone is freedom in Jesus.

308
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,840
Not slavery in sin.

309
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:32,840
And the purpose for freedom is so that you can be charged for the plan that God has for you.

310
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,840
Don't be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

311
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:37,840
What's the will of the Lord?

312
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:42,840
The will of the Lord is that you are free from sin.

313
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,840
That you are absolutely free from sin.

314
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:51,840
That you're absolutely free from the thing that you think no one knows about.

315
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,840
But you know still binds you.

316
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:03,840
The will of the Lord is that you be absolutely free and not just free, but full of power.

317
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:12,840
Not full of some kind of power, but full of him.

318
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,840
Hallelujah.

319
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:20,840
Hallelujah.

320
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:26,840
There's freedom in here for you.

321
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:36,840
Because the Bible says in Corinthians that we are the temple of the living God.

322
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,840
Think about this.

323
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:48,840
God told Moses, I want you to build a place for me to come and inhabit.

324
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,840
They called it the tabernacle.

325
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:51,840
It was a tent.

326
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:52,840
Really nice.

327
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:57,840
Really nice tent.

328
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:05,840
But in numbers, in the book of Numbers it says that there was a time where everything was prepared

329
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:10,840
and they filled that tabernacle with precious things.

330
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,840
But it wasn't his temple.

331
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:20,840
It wasn't the temple of the living God until he filled it.

332
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:31,840
There was some evidence when God moved in to the tent Moses built.

333
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:40,840
And that evidence the Bible says was something that looked like a cloud that came up from it during the day.

334
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:46,840
And something that looked like fire at night.

335
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,840
Everybody that saw that tabernacle knew God lived in there.

336
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,840
Why?

337
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,840
Because there was some evidence.

338
00:26:54,840 --> 00:27:00,840
The plan of God for you is that everybody that sees you.

339
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:10,840
Everybody that sees you sees some evidence of the Holy Ghost that lives on the inside of you.

340
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:18,840
About a year and a half ago, I guess it was about a year and a half ago now, a guy came up to me and he said,

341
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:19,840
can I talk to you?

342
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,840
I said, sure.

343
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:28,840
He said, I know this person that's been coming to your Go Church meetings.

344
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,840
Yeah, great.

345
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:47,840
He said, I knew them before they started coming and they were always negative, always sad, always talking about how bad things were.

346
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:57,840
And then they started coming and now they're always glad and they're full of hope.

347
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,840
And they're always talking about what's going to happen.

348
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:11,840
He said, I don't know what happened to them, but I want it to happen to me.

349
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:19,840
There should be some evidence that God has moved on the inside of us.

350
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:27,840
And I'm talking about the tabernacle from the Old Testament and you think, well, that's the Old Testament.

351
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:28,840
That's in the past.

352
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,840
No, let's look at the New Testament.

353
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,840
Let's look at Acts chapter 2.

354
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:40,840
In Acts chapter 2, something happened.

355
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:47,840
Acts chapter 2 is right after Acts chapter 1, for those of you playing along.

356
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:58,840
Acts chapter 2, it says that there was a sound from heaven like a, what's it say?

357
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:03,840
Roaring mighty windstorm.

358
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:12,840
I heard one minister say this, you know, if you're living in AD 33, the loudest thing you've ever heard is weather.

359
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:20,840
So when Luke is trying to describe this, it was really loud like weather.

360
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,840
It wasn't weather though.

361
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:32,840
It was him who the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit, you know who he is.

362
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,840
He's the one Jesus was so excited about.

363
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,840
Read the book of John, the Gospel of John.

364
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:48,840
In John chapter 7, Jesus, everyone is having a festival and they're celebrating something they don't know yet.

365
00:29:48,840 --> 00:30:07,840
And the Bible says that Jesus stood up and with a loud voice said, hey, if you're thirsty, come to me and drink because out of your belly will flow rivers, rivers, rivers of living water.

366
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:17,840
And then just in case we missed it, John said he's talking about the Holy Spirit.

367
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:31,840
And in Acts chapter 1, he said, you will receive power, ability, efficiency and might when the Holy Spirit comes on you.

368
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:41,840
In Acts chapter 2, it says there was a sound like really loud weather.

369
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,840
And then something happened.

370
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,840
Do you know what happened?

371
00:30:47,840 --> 00:31:00,840
Just like he did in the Old Testament, God himself moved into the temple.

372
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:06,840
That's why Paul said, hey, to a bunch of Gentiles in the south of Greece.

373
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:11,840
He said, hey, don't you know you are the temple of God.

374
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:20,840
There should be some evidence on the inside of you as an individual when the Spirit of God takes up residence on the inside.

375
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:26,840
There should be some evidence when we all come together.

376
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:38,840
There was evidence there in Acts chapter 2, verse 4, it says, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak.

377
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,840
Speak.

378
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:48,840
You know, speak is something that no one can do for you.

379
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:56,840
And they began to speak in other tongues as the Holy Spirit gave them a trance.

380
00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:05,840
They yielded to the flow of the Spirit of God by opening their mouth.

381
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:14,840
And when they did, it didn't fill the room, it filled the city.

382
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:23,840
Rafi and I were once sitting with a pastor and the guy asked, he says, are you Pentecostal?

383
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:28,840
I said, I am very Pentecostal.

384
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:33,840
Do you speak in tongues? Absolutely. Did so today.

385
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,840
Do you have to speak in tongues to go to heaven? No.

386
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:45,840
But if you want heaven to invade your Tuesday, spend some time speaking in other tongues.

387
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaking in tongues is the doorway through which you can enter a supernatural world or what the Bible calls the powers of the world to come.

388
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,840
Yes, I speak in tongues and I am unashamed.

389
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,840
Yes, I'm Pentecostal and I'm very Pentecostal. What does that mean?

390
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:12,840
Well, let's look at what happened in Acts chapter two when those very Pentecostal people broke out of that room.

391
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:21,840
Verse 41, I believe it says, 3,000 people came to know Jesus.

392
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,840
3,000 people came to know Jesus.

393
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:29,840
You know what the evidence is of the Holy Spirit moving in on the inside of us?

394
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,840
People come to know Jesus.

395
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,840
Jesus said that the Holy Spirit doesn't speak of Himself.

396
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,840
No, He points to Jesus.

397
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,840
The Holy Spirit didn't come to make you famous.

398
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:46,840
The Holy Spirit came to make Jesus famous.

399
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:56,840
The evidence, the Bible evidence of being filled with the Holy Spirit initially, the first evidence, not the only, the first evidence is speaking in other tongues.

400
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,840
But there are many other things, supernatural things.

401
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:06,840
Why? Because we are in this world, but we are not of this world.

402
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,840
It is the will of God.

403
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:19,840
It is the will of God for all people to come to the knowledge of Jesus and be saved, be born again.

404
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,840
Jesus used that term, born again.

405
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:28,840
It is God's will that everyone, because the price has been paid.

406
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:45,840
The Bible says that God was in Jesus and He reconciled that means to bring back the whole world to Himself so that He does not hold anyone's sin against them.

407
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,840
That's why I said you can be free today.

408
00:34:49,840 --> 00:35:00,840
And for everyone who would receive Jesus, it is the will of God that you live filled with Him.

409
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:12,840
It is the prayer, prayed for the early church by the apostles that we, the church, would be filled with the fullness of God.

410
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,840
Do you know why?

411
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:21,840
Because there are things that God wants you to do you cannot do on your own.

412
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,840
There are things that God has planned for you.

413
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:31,840
There are others who have prayed before you even showed up.

414
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:39,840
And the Lord said, yes, I will do it because you are here in this time.

415
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,840
But you can't do it on your own.

416
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:49,840
Everything God has done in the earth, He did it through people that were charged.

417
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,840
I'm talking about being filled with the Holy Spirit.

418
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:58,840
Being filled with the Holy Spirit is not something that just happened way in the past.

419
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,840
Oh, I was filled with the Holy Spirit way back in 1988.

420
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,840
Why have you beat?

421
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,840
I was filled with the Holy Spirit in 1979.

422
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:15,840
Some of you weren't even born in them.

423
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:21,840
Well, I tried it, but it didn't work.

424
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,840
That's not a Bible verse.

425
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:30,840
Period.

426
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:36,840
In fact, it's an easy thing to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

427
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:43,840
The Bible says in Luke, and in fact, one of you, Rebecca, I think you quoted it,

428
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,840
Luke chapter 11, do you have that?

429
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,840
Trenton is helping me.

430
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,840
Luke chapter 11, Jesus said this.

431
00:36:54,840 --> 00:37:02,840
He said, if you, though you're just evil, natural, carnal, you're not God.

432
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:09,840
You know how to give good gifts to your children. How much more?

433
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:18,840
How much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask?

434
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:25,840
Years ago, I was volunteering at our church, Raymond Bible Church in Tulsa.

435
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:32,840
I was with the kids, which is way more fun.

436
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:38,840
I was helping with the kids. I wasn't leading the meeting. I was just doing crowd control.

437
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:43,840
So it's me and like seven other kids.

438
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:50,840
I always said it was fine as long as the kids didn't realize they outnumbered us.

439
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,840
And we're talking about the Holy Spirit.

440
00:37:54,840 --> 00:38:01,840
There's a little girl sitting next to me. I think she may have been nine years old.

441
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:08,840
And the person from the front that was leading the session was talking about receiving the Holy Spirit.

442
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:13,840
This little girl turns to me and she says, I want to receive the Holy Spirit.

443
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,840
I said, okay, great. She says, but I don't know how.

444
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:25,840
I didn't even look the verse up. I just quoted it from memory.

445
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:32,840
I quote this verse from her. I said, all we have to do is ask the Father in Jesus' name for the Holy Spirit,

446
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:40,840
and He will give it to you. She said, it's that easy? I love kids.

447
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:47,840
Kids don't try to think of reasons why it won't work for me because I'm super special and have lots of problems.

448
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:54,840
She goes, is that easy? I said, yeah. She said, can we do it now? Yes.

449
00:38:54,840 --> 00:39:02,840
I said, just say this out loud after me. Heavenly Father? Heavenly Father?

450
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,840
I don't know. She probably had a little more bass in her voice. I don't know.

451
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:11,840
She repeats the prayer.

452
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:21,840
I said, give me the Holy Spirit. She says, give me the Holy Spirit.

453
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:29,840
In Jesus' name, in Jesus' name, amen. She's got her eyes closed.

454
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:38,840
She opens one eye and looks at me. I said, okay. Now, say something that's not English.

455
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:43,840
She closes her eyes. She opens her eyes. She says, I don't know how.

456
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:48,840
I said, yeah, you do. You're filled with the Holy Spirit because we just prayed.

457
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:54,840
And when we pray according to God's Word, He always hears us.

458
00:39:54,840 --> 00:40:02,840
So she closes her eyes. You know what she did?

459
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:09,840
She starts speaking in other tongues. Do you know why? Because she was filled.

460
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:17,840
Do you know why? Because God is just that good and it is just that simple.

461
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,840
Yeah, but you don't understand because it...

462
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,840
Hush. Stop believing lies.

463
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:30,840
Your lies form the fence in which you live.

464
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:41,840
And the door is not locked. There are no limits to what God can do through you.

465
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:47,840
Yeah, that happened to me. I prayed. I even prayed in tongues.

466
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:53,840
It was 11 years ago. It was a great day. It was a Tuesday.

467
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:58,840
The Bible says in Acts chapter 2, they were all filled with the Holy Spirit.

468
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:07,840
And then just two chapters later, it says that same group all got together and prayed.

469
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:15,840
And you know what the Bible says? It says that they were all filled with the Holy Ghost.

470
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,840
Wait a minute. That had already happened in Acts chapter 2.

471
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:28,840
Yeah, because one minister said it like this, we are leaky vessels.

472
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:39,840
We get filled, charged, and then we get under load and we start losing some of that charge.

473
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:44,840
In Acts chapter 2, they got filled. When they got filled, they preached.

474
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:49,840
When they preached, 3,000 people came to know Jesus.

475
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:54,840
In Acts chapter 3, a man got healed that had never walked.

476
00:41:54,840 --> 00:42:00,840
Later on, they got arrested.

477
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,840
And they were told, you can't do that anymore.

478
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:09,840
Which could have a tendency to draw out some of the charge.

479
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:17,840
And instead of just saying, well, that would have been nice, they went back and said, Lord, fill us again.

480
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,840
Let's get charged back up. How did they do that?

481
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:30,840
Ephesians chapter 5, verse 18 and 19 tells us, speaking, speaking.

482
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:37,840
You can't think your way out of problems.

483
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:45,840
You can read a book and find lots of good things, but at some point, you need to open up your mouth

484
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:51,840
and give place or yield to the power of God.

485
00:42:51,840 --> 00:43:00,840
Because He is who makes the difference.

486
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:06,840
Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

487
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:13,840
Stand up with me.

488
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:20,840
I've gone long enough.

489
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:27,840
Just in reverence to the Lord, because He's here,

490
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,840
I want to ask you to bow your heads.

491
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,840
Don't be looking around.

492
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:44,840
I want to give you an opportunity today to participate in what we're talking about.

493
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:51,840
And it starts with receiving the free gift of Jesus.

494
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,840
Most of you, I know.

495
00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:08,840
But I want to give always room for someone to say yes to Jesus for the first time.

496
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:13,840
Maybe you're here today and you have made a commitment to Jesus in the past,

497
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:22,840
but you know, you know you're not living the way you should.

498
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,840
Maybe you'd say, if Jesus came and stood here in front of me today,

499
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:32,840
I'm not ready to meet Him.

500
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:38,840
Because I've had things that I know I shouldn't be doing that are enticing me

501
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:44,840
and leading me away from what He has for me.

502
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,840
Inside of that is slavery, and I don't want you to be bound by it.

503
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:55,840
I want you to be free.

504
00:44:55,840 --> 00:45:04,840
So just now, I'm going to lead everyone in a prayer where we can say yes to Jesus

505
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:17,840
and we can be free from these sins and weights.

506
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:24,840
Don't leave this place the way you came.

507
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:37,840
Tomorrow isn't promised.

508
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,840
Are you ready to meet Him?

509
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:46,840
Maybe you've let something from your past come in between you and God.

510
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:53,840
Maybe something that someone said or someone should not have done, but they did.

511
00:45:53,840 --> 00:46:02,840
Don't let that be the thing that sends you to hell.

512
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:08,840
Time is short and Jesus is coming.

513
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:14,840
These are the last days.

514
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:24,840
But they could be your last days.

515
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:36,840
And I don't want the opportunity to go by.

516
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,840
Let's see if just a simple prayer.

517
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:43,840
You can just say this out loud loud enough that you can hear it with your ears.

518
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:50,840
God, I believe You.

519
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:54,840
I believe You gave Jesus.

520
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:56,840
He's Lord.

521
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,840
I'm not.

522
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:06,840
I believe that Jesus died for me.

523
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:12,840
With my mouth, I say, He is my Lord.

524
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,840
He's alive.

525
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,840
And I am Your child.

526
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,840
Heavenly Father.

527
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:26,840
I say, I'm free now.

528
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:31,840
Because you don't have bound children.

529
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:37,840
Say I'm free.

530
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,840
Say I'm free.

531
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,840
In Jesus' name.

532
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,840
Thank You, Lord.

533
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,840
Thank You, Lord.

534
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:57,840
Now, I've been talking about the Holy Spirit, receiving the Holy Spirit.

535
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:03,840
The Spirit of God coming on the inside of you.

536
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:13,840
If you would like to receive what the Bible calls the baptism in the Holy Spirit.

537
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:22,840
If you would like to experience being filled with the Holy Spirit and be charged from the inside.

538
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:27,840
Then I'd like you to make your way down here and just stand along this first row.

539
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:35,840
If you'd like prayer to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I'd like you to come down and just stand right here.

540
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:44,840
Don't be shy.

541
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,840
Hallelujah.

542
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:53,840
Thank You, Lord.

543
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:58,840
Glory to God.

544
00:48:58,840 --> 00:48:59,840
Come on.

545
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,840
Just make your way this way.

546
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:07,840
Bless the Lord.

547
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,840
Glory to God.

548
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,840
The Lord is good.

549
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,840
Hallelujah.

550
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:18,840
Let's just lift our hands to heaven and say thank You, Lord.

551
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:20,840
Oh, thank You, Lord.

552
00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,840
Lord, You are good.

553
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,840
You are mercy endures forever.

554
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,840
Oh, thank You for glory.

555
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:31,840
Thank You for glory.

556
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,840
Thank You for glory.

557
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:35,840
Thank You, Lord.

558
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:37,840
Thank You, Lord.

559
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:42,840
Now, you that have come, I want you to listen to me.

560
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,840
I'm going to pray a prayer.

561
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:50,840
And when I do, the Spirit of God is going to come on you.

562
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:52,840
Hallelujah.

563
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:58,840
Just like that little girl I told you about happened to me the same way.

564
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,840
I'm going to pray just a general prayer.

565
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:07,840
And then I'm going to ask Patrick and Dee and Pastor Chase, if you'd come and help us.

566
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,840
Pastor Tripp and Rachel, they're going to lay hands on you.

567
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,840
And you're going to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

568
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:17,840
Amen.

569
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:18,840
Hallelujah.

570
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:19,840
Heavenly Father,

571
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:21,840
I thank You for these that have come.

572
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:25,840
They have responded in faith that Your Word is true.

573
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:27,840
I know it is.

574
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:29,840
And I know You're good.

575
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,840
You're a good, good Father.

576
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:37,840
And because You're good, You will give the Holy Spirit to them because they're asking.

577
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:45,840
So we ask now in Jesus' name for the baptism of the Holy Spirit on these, to come on these, that You grant unto them.

578
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:53,840
Now, as hands are laid on them by these, in Jesus' name the Spirit of God comes on them in fullness.

579
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:54,840
Hallelujah.

580
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,840
Glory to God. Glory to God.
