1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:12,300 Welcome to the God's Goodness podcast, where our mission is to encourage and highlight God's 2 00:00:12,300 --> 00:00:13,800 Goodness and modern-day miracles. 3 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,180 We are your hosts, Josh and Shelley Hankins. 4 00:00:17,180 --> 00:00:19,300 Today we have with us a special couple. 5 00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:21,880 We have Delise and Justin Buckles. 6 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:27,640 They are evangelists that we met just last week and oh my gosh, I, we were going to a 7 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,520 healing ceremony at Wendy Lawson's. 8 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,480 She has had a couple episodes with us, so go check her out. 9 00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:38,520 There's a playlist in YouTube and she said, come to a healing ceremony, check it out. 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,840 And I had no idea what that went until and turns out there was a whole sermon and it 11 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,560 was so good that I said, hey, can we go live? 12 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,840 And so there is actually a live in Facebook with Justin and Delise. 13 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:55,440 Yeah, so you get to see what they look like and if you're interested in that and they 14 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,920 were just, it was on everything is on fire that night. 15 00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:58,920 It was so good. 16 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,680 People were getting healed and it was just God's goodness being revealed. 17 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:08,800 And with that, the Holy Spirit, it was obvious they had to come on and they're too evangelists 18 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,360 and they're going to tell you a little bit about that. 19 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:16,080 Oh, that's my jam because on the gifts test, that's what I tested very high for. 20 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,200 And so they're my people. 21 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,080 So with that, but we're first, we're going to have them open us up with an opening prayer 22 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,520 and then we'll get into it. 23 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:29,040 Father, we just thank you for this evening in your presence with these wonderful people. 24 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,360 Every person that listens to this broadcast, God, I ask you to touch them in a special 25 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:40,000 way, a profound way that does something great to their life and the increase of your kingdom. 26 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,600 In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray that out of this service that people get saved and 27 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:52,200 that believers are raised up to be mighty soul winners for you before you come back, 28 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,200 Jesus. 29 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,200 Amen. 30 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,200 Amen. 31 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,160 Thank you for that. 32 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:03,120 So tell us, tell everybody a little bit about you guys and then what the Holy Spirit led 33 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,120 you to share. 34 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,120 Yeah. 35 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:06,120 Amen. 36 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,120 Thank you for being here. 37 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,120 Thank you guys for having us on the show. 38 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,120 Thank you so much. 39 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,120 Appreciate it. 40 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,120 Thanks for coming. 41 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,120 We do appreciate it. 42 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:13,120 Thank you very much. 43 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,120 We've been on radio, we've been on television, but never podcasts like this. 44 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,120 We're the first. 45 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,120 Checking all the boxes. 46 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,120 Checking it. 47 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,120 Yes, definitely. 48 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:20,120 And it's new. 49 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,120 We've had a couple of people say it was their favorite interview. 50 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,120 I believe it's going to be our favorite. 51 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,120 We believe it. 52 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,000 But I'm evangelist Justin Buckles. 53 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,800 This is my wife, evangelist Delisae Buckles and God called us to Central America Honduras. 54 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,680 That's our main mission. 55 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,920 We're evangelists here in America as well. 56 00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:41,920 We come back every couple of months and we're here right now and we're going to do a couple 57 00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:42,920 of months tour here. 58 00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:46,400 We're going to be preaching in New York next week. 59 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,640 Then we'll come back to Pennsylvania and do a big meeting here and then we'll go out 60 00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:54,080 to North Carolina, back to Pennsylvania, Alabama. 61 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,120 And then in Jesus' name, we'll get back to Central America. 62 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,720 When we preach every night of the week. 63 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,920 So tonight I'm preaching a message called doing the work of an evangelist. 64 00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:09,000 And we believe with all of our hearts, according to the Scripture and Bible prophecy, that 65 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,200 we're living in the last seconds of the last days. 66 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,320 And then Jesus is coming soon. 67 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:20,320 And the Bible says the only reason he hasn't returned yet is because he is waiting in heaven. 68 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,400 He's being patient because he wishes that none perish. 69 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:31,640 So we're giving our all to the ministry of the kingdom of God and I couldn't do without 70 00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:34,040 my wonderful wife, evangelist, Delisae Buckles. 71 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,440 Do you want to say hi to the people then? 72 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:36,440 Yes, definitely. 73 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,920 I just want to say thank you to Shelly and Josh for having us here. 74 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:40,920 It's amazing. 75 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:46,440 And I do believe in divine connections, you know, and I believe we met them for such a 76 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:47,440 time as this. 77 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,400 And as my husband was saying, we do believe we're in the last days. 78 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,760 So if you're listening to this podcast, I just want to tell you, listen to every second 79 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,040 of it because there's something for you today. 80 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,040 God has a word for you. 81 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,960 God has called us to preach the gospel. 82 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,000 And we were just talking to my husband that this is what we love to do the most. 83 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,720 You know, we were on the car saying the Bible says our nourishment comes from doing the will 84 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,720 of God. 85 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,720 Like our fulfillment comes from doing the will of God. 86 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,880 Seeing souls being saved, seeing people's lives transformed. 87 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,360 And we are a miracle. 88 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,640 You know, we came out of the darkness into the light. 89 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:32,400 And as the Bible says, God has called us to bring the lost, those that are lost into Jesus 90 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,400 Christ. 91 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,680 Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. 92 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,120 So that's what we believe we're preaching nonstop. 93 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:46,280 And we believe that the soon return of Jesus is right here, you know, and that's the message 94 00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:47,720 that people need to hear. 95 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,520 So he can't get here soon enough. 96 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,520 Even in the New Testament, they were always praying Lord Jesus come soon. 97 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:57,520 Come. 98 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:58,520 Amen. 99 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,600 That's one of my favorite songs is come Jesus come. 100 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:01,600 Amen. 101 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,360 And he is coming. 102 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:08,680 But the Bible says the gospel must be preached across the whole earth. 103 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,240 And then the end will come. 104 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:16,000 And that's why this message is so important because it's up to us as believers to get the 105 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,000 gospel, the good news out to the entire earth. 106 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,680 You know, Jesus said, occupy until I come. 107 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,840 What I love that Jesus told Peter, he said, Peter, I'm going to make you a fisher of men 108 00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:29,840 now. 109 00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:31,640 You know, I'm an evangelist. 110 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,840 The gift of an evangelist is to be able to win people to Christ in mass, really. 111 00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:41,080 You know, we do mass crusades and you see that in the book of Acts where we'll see thousands 112 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,480 come into the kingdom in one night. 113 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,920 But Paul also told Timothy, he was a pastor. 114 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:52,280 Timothy, do the work of an evangelist. 115 00:05:52,280 --> 00:05:55,400 Make full proof of your ministry. 116 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,760 Paul was telling Pastor Timothy to make full proof of your ministry. 117 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,000 Do the work of an evangelist. 118 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:09,000 And then the Bible says that every believer has the ministry of reconciliation. 119 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,880 And that's why tonight's message is so important because yes, there are gifts in the kingdom 120 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,400 of God, like a pastor, an evangelist, prophet on and on. 121 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:23,080 But the Bible is very clear that every believer has a ministry. 122 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:28,000 And I believe the greatest ministry we can have is winning souls to Christ. 123 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:33,120 So tonight I really want to see, as I'm preaching to people, to get hunger in their hearts for 124 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:38,440 souls and actual Bible tactics on how to do it. 125 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:44,440 You know, I found out, Josh, is that a lot of believers have the desire to win souls, 126 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,400 but they don't know how to do it. 127 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:51,800 And that's even why we started a Bible school over in Honduras called the School of Evangelism. 128 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:57,320 And it's for this very reason because we're going to reach people that you're never able 129 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,040 to be able to reach. 130 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,520 And vice versa, you're going to see people on a daily basis and everybody listening to 131 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,040 this podcast who I will never get to. 132 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,680 You will never get to. 133 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:12,640 And God is relying on his army, that God is raising up an army in these last seconds 134 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:13,640 of time. 135 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:21,000 And Isaiah 2, it prophesies that in the last days, the mountain of the Lord's house, the 136 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:27,640 church, will be the highest mountain of all, the most important place on earth. 137 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,720 And people will be coming from everywhere to come into the kingdom of God. 138 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:36,360 So before I really get in the message tonight, I want to tell you guys our story, how we 139 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,360 got into ministry. 140 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:42,600 And I believe it's going to be inspiring to the people that are listening that God not 141 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:49,120 only can he use anybody, he can raise people up quickly because we were in the last seconds 142 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,080 of the last days. 143 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:56,160 And God, the Bible says he's looking to and fro through the whole earth, looking for somebody 144 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,360 whose heart is willing. 145 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,720 You know, his heart is a pure heart that wants to win souls. 146 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:10,320 And when he finds that person, he will show himself off mightily on his behalf. 147 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,800 And I believe tonight, as the word goes out, it's going to touch people and God's going 148 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,640 to see their hearts and he's going to mark them and use them in a great way in these 149 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,400 last seconds of time. 150 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,840 You know, the gospel is the good news. 151 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,920 And that's what we preach to people, you know, that Jesus is the only way to heaven. 152 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,080 Jesus said, I am the way. 153 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,320 I'm the only way. 154 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:31,320 I'm the truth. 155 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:32,320 I'm the life. 156 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,880 I'm the only way unto the Father. 157 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:39,800 And you know, it's only through Jesus Christ that our sins can be forgiven, that we know 158 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,560 heaven is our home. 159 00:08:41,560 --> 00:08:45,960 And it's only by the power of God that we can have a transformed life. 160 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,760 So I'm a preacher. 161 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:48,760 Amen. 162 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,040 And I think, I think I'm a, I always say this when I'm preaching, I think I'm a pretty good 163 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:57,120 preacher and I dress nice, you know, and I look presentable and set. 164 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:02,280 But I wasn't always like that, you know, for most of my life, I was addicted to hair 165 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:08,040 and went methamphetamine and many drugs and I was bound and I tried everything to get 166 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,040 off drugs. 167 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,040 I don't even want to be on drugs. 168 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,680 I just couldn't stop, you know, I tried rehabs, medicine, herbals, you name it. 169 00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:19,960 I tried it, you know, it ended up coming down to, well, actually on this street that 170 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:25,000 you guys are on right now, right here on Bower Hill, I got my first DUI driving under the 171 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,680 influence of heroin where I ran into the police station. 172 00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:31,640 Well, I ran into another police station in Washington as well. 173 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,200 And now I say, what kind of idiot runs in two police stations? 174 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,200 The kind of guy. 175 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,200 Somebody under the power of the devil. 176 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,200 The kind God wants to get sober. 177 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:39,200 Amen. 178 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,200 Exactly. 179 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,200 That's true, Josh. 180 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,880 So I had four DUIs and I was looking at a 10 year prison sentence and I had never been 181 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,760 to jail in my life, but in one year I went to jail eight times. 182 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,000 Was it the Allegheny County Jail by chance? 183 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,000 Washington County. 184 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,000 Washington County. 185 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,840 A lot of people get saved in the Allegheny County Jail. 186 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,880 Hey, I think God saves a lot of people in a lot of jails. 187 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,280 That's for sure. 188 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,240 So anyways, I was looking at a 10 year prison sentence. 189 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,640 Now I'm in handcuffs for the ninth time and my probation officer says, listen, you've 190 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,440 been to jail eight times this year. 191 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,280 There's no more chances for you. 192 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,520 You're going to go and serve your 10 year prison sentence now. 193 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,480 Chances up, you know, at that point. 194 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:26,440 And at that moment I cried out from the bottom of my heart and I said, Lord, if you deliver 195 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:31,720 me and you'll save me, I'll serve you, I'll do whatever you want me to do. 196 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:36,920 And this judge that I would go in front of, he would always do what the probation officer 197 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:37,920 recommended. 198 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,280 So if she said, go to jail, he was going to do it. 199 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,960 Well, she recommended for me to go to prison and this day something different happened. 200 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:50,720 He got this crazy look in his eyes and now I know as the Holy Ghost coming on him and 201 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,760 he dropped his glasses and he said, you know what, I think we're going to give Justin one 202 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,260 more chance. 203 00:10:56,260 --> 00:10:59,600 Instead of sending him to prison, he says, no, we're going to send Justin to rehab in 204 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,160 a halfway house. 205 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,520 And I already told you guys, I've already been to rehab and that never worked for me, 206 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:05,520 anything like that. 207 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:11,120 And I determined from that day that I was going to serve the Lord and I was going to 208 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:12,400 do whatever I had to do. 209 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,040 And it was during that time I started to do what I never did before. 210 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,280 I started to seek the face of Jesus in the Word and the Bible. 211 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,480 I started a Bible study. 212 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,800 I won the whole halfway house to Jesus. 213 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:28,880 So I became evangelist at that point and I found out it was during that time that I 214 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,600 got totally free from drugs. 215 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:36,840 It was my relationship with God that destroyed the yoke that I could never be destroyed before. 216 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,760 Jesus is the only way out of addiction. 217 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:39,760 He's the only one. 218 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,680 He's the only one that has the power to do it. 219 00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:42,680 Amen. 220 00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:43,680 It's very powerful. 221 00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:47,160 You know, the Bible says the devil has come to kill, steal and destroy our lives, but Jesus 222 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,840 said, I came to give you life and life abundantly. 223 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:57,520 So I went to college to be a physical therapist and I ruined that career because of my 4 DUIs, 224 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:58,520 you know. 225 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:03,280 And I was praying one night in the halfway house and I said, God, everything I thought 226 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,680 I was supposed to do with my life is not going to happen. 227 00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:07,280 Now see, I knew what a prophet was. 228 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:12,200 I don't recommend this prayer, but I said, God, would you send a prophet to me to tell 229 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,960 me what I'm supposed to do with my life? 230 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,280 Everyone wants to be told what to do. 231 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,280 Yeah, everybody does. 232 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,280 So that would be nice, right? 233 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,680 Yeah, it definitely made it a little bit easier for me. 234 00:12:20,680 --> 00:12:22,200 It's like a prophet to do it. 235 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,200 It's very easy to do. 236 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,120 Yeah, right at the same time, if somebody came up to you and said, God told you that 237 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,000 you need to do this, would you hymn and haw? 238 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,760 Would you say, hmm, is this guy really from God? 239 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,520 And so like at the same time, it seems like it'd be the easiest thing in the world to 240 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,400 do it and also not. 241 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,640 Yeah, definitely something to pray about. 242 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,800 I'm going to tell you this part of the story and that's actually exactly what you're saying, 243 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,720 Josh, is what happened. 244 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,320 So after so many months, you're allowed to get a job. 245 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,840 So I have to catch a bus on the other side of town. 246 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:55,440 I have a job set up at one more job interview and I'm late for my bus. 247 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,560 So I'm going down this road and I decided I'm going to take this back alley to avoid 248 00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:01,840 traffic and just be able to stroll. 249 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:06,040 So I'm flying down this back alley and I see this African American man coming from a 250 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,800 far distance off way off down. 251 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,320 And as he draws closer to me, I don't want to talk to nobody. 252 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,400 I just drop my head and I pick up speed and I start walking. 253 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:22,240 And this man jumps right in front of me, puts his hand on my chest and says these words. 254 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:27,040 He said, the Lord Jesus Christ has sent me to you today to tell you you're going into 255 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:33,000 the ministry and though you'll lead thousands to Christ before Jesus returns. 256 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:39,480 And that's why I even said this message says because Jesus is about ready to return. 257 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,920 This man went along his way and guess what? 258 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,880 I didn't believe anything he said. 259 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,760 Never once did I think about becoming a preacher. 260 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,480 I couldn't speak in front of public. 261 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,160 I was never able to do it, you know? 262 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,320 So never did that cross my mind. 263 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,240 I cannot imagine this. 264 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,760 Because I know you now. 265 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:55,760 Right. 266 00:13:55,760 --> 00:14:00,480 So you guys have seen me preach and I can preach in front of thousands, millions, no problem. 267 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,000 Because that shows you the power of the Holy Ghost. 268 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,480 What's going to help the people tonight? 269 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,840 That power is going to help everybody start to witness for Christ. 270 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,440 So I couldn't do it in my own human strength. 271 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:11,960 So anyways, two weeks go by. 272 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,880 I never even thought about this because I didn't think it was real. 273 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:15,880 And somebody asked me. 274 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:16,880 I've been praying. 275 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:17,880 I've been praying. 276 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,880 Yeah. 277 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:19,880 I knew what a prophet was. 278 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,320 But I guess just, I didn't think it was going to be preaching. 279 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,280 So I feel like it was just off the radar, you know what I mean? 280 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:32,680 For me, as far as faith was concerned, two weeks go by, I get invited to a church service. 281 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,560 I go to the service, the preacher, he's late coming. 282 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:41,080 And I finally, he makes it there and takes the microphone and I look up and I realize 283 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,600 it's the same man from the back alley. 284 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:48,560 He turns and he looks at me and he says, I've been fasting and I've been praying all week. 285 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,680 And the Lord told me, showed me in a vision that you were going to be here tonight. 286 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,840 And then you didn't believe anything that I told you on that back alley. 287 00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,280 He said, but I'm going to tell you again, you're going into the ministry, you'll leave 288 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,000 thousands to Christ before Jesus returns. 289 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,320 You'll have a ministry of miracles. 290 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,440 You'll pray for the sick and the sick will get healed. 291 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:13,560 And then he said this, God's going to send you places that nobody else wants to go to. 292 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,960 And the last thing he said, which is very, very powerful is you'll be in a full-time 293 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,560 ministry in exactly six months from now. 294 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:25,960 I never preached once in my life, but two weeks after that, the first door opened for 295 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:26,960 me to preach. 296 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,320 I'm still living in a halfway house and a pastor asked me to come preach at the church, 297 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,280 which is a miracle in itself. 298 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,800 And I gave my first altar call at 11 people came up and gave their life to Christ and 299 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:37,960 it's all history from there. 300 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,400 I never stopped preaching. 301 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:45,160 And exactly in six months, I was already in full-time ministry, opened up my own church 302 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,360 and was, you know, doing evangelistic services. 303 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:54,760 So God did that in me so quickly, so quickly delivered me and prusted me into full-time 304 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,520 ministry because time is short. 305 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:02,200 So Daniel 12 says, I should let me, let me go on with the story a little bit. 306 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,440 That prophet, I used to talk to him on the phone on a regular basis. 307 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,360 And I was getting ready to hang up with him one night. 308 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,440 And he said, the spirit of the Lord's coming to me and wanted me to tell you that before 309 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:17,520 the month of December, your ministry is going to go international. 310 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:24,080 And the probation system is not going to allow you to go, but God's going to work a miracle 311 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,680 for you and God's preparing a way for you. 312 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,680 That's what he said. 313 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:33,120 That was, I believe it was nine months or I think it might, maybe even 11 months away 314 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,120 from December. 315 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,360 He said, but before the month of December, this was going to happen. 316 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,280 But I knew when he spoke, put it in my heart and believe it. 317 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,520 So just like he said, just like he said the first time within, you know, all this stuff 318 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,240 is going to happen and happen. 319 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,440 And the doors opened up to preach in Central America, Honduras. 320 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,360 Went to the probation, I was on probation at this time. 321 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,120 I'm a full-time pastor, so on probation. 322 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:58,920 I think that might have been the only one in history, but yeah, God has a sense of humor. 323 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,120 He's powerful God and he's funny. 324 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,640 They'll use anyone. 325 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:03,640 Exactly. 326 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:04,640 He will use anyone. 327 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:05,640 It's available. 328 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:06,640 It's available. 329 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,520 It's just that simple available. 330 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:12,040 So I asked him, Hey, I want to go preaching Honduras. 331 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,840 They've asked me to come preach. 332 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,520 And they said, absolutely not. 333 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:20,880 You're not even allowed to leave the county, let alone the state, let alone the country. 334 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,600 Just stopped it like that. 335 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,460 Just like he said, well, there was this lady that started coming to my church. 336 00:17:26,460 --> 00:17:27,960 She liked my preaching. 337 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,840 I didn't know it at the time, but she was the sternographer for my judge. 338 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:38,400 She worked with my judge and when she found out that they said, no, she made a special 339 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,200 appointment with my judge. 340 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,720 She said, listen, I attend Justin's church. 341 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,680 Like he's God has really transformed his life around. 342 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,440 You have to let him go on this mission trip. 343 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,800 And just like he said, God would work a miracle. 344 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,320 The same judge who was supposed to send me to prison who let me go. 345 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:56,320 God did that first miracle. 346 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,440 It's the same judge who now said, yes, we're going to let him go on this mission trip. 347 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,560 And it happened in the month of November. 348 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:07,440 He said, before the month of December, you will go and God is preparing a wife for you. 349 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,720 And that wife is sitting right next to me right now, who was my interpreter when I went 350 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,720 to Honduras. 351 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:19,160 And I say that because not only to build your faith on the awesome miracle power of God, 352 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:24,840 but when you say yes to God, when you say yes to building his kingdom, miracles start 353 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,280 to happen all around your life and through your life. 354 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,280 Amen. 355 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,680 And I just want to say something with that. 356 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:34,480 Like, I remember when he was about to come and everything seemed like he was not going 357 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:38,160 to be able to make it, but God opened away. 358 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:45,600 And the lady that was the judge's sternographer, actually you met her through street evangelism. 359 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:52,120 You used to do street evangelism and somebody at the Christian outreach, saw him do a street 360 00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:56,400 evangelism, connected him with another prayer group. 361 00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:01,200 And that's how he met that lady through doing the work of the Lord. 362 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:07,120 So God could, those divine connections, you know, and then we ended up meeting in Honduras. 363 00:19:07,120 --> 00:19:09,000 I was his translator. 364 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,080 Then in a couple of months he proposed and I moved up here and we've been in full time 365 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,600 ministry since then. 366 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:21,960 So God has those mighty, it's like a Wi-Fi, like a spiritual Wi-Fi that he connects us 367 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,880 with the right people at the right time. 368 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:24,880 Social equity. 369 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:25,880 Amen. 370 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,760 And I was like, oh my gosh, but that puts the, you know, that's how important it is, 371 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:30,760 so in seats. 372 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:31,760 Yeah, exactly. 373 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:32,760 You never know. 374 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:33,760 You never know. 375 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:34,760 Yes, you never know. 376 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:39,520 Seek first, the Bible says, seek first the advancement of my kingdom and I will add 377 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:40,520 all things unto you. 378 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:41,520 Amen. 379 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,200 And that time there was a wife and many other things, you know, that I was praying for. 380 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:45,200 Oh yeah. 381 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,200 And actually that lady ended up paying for part of her wedding. 382 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:49,200 Wow. 383 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:50,880 So yeah, it was supernatural. 384 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:51,880 Incredible. 385 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:52,880 Yeah. 386 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,520 And it was after miracles, but let me get into this now a little bit. 387 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,360 The word of God. 388 00:19:58,360 --> 00:19:59,360 Start off that testimony. 389 00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:03,560 Daniel 12 says, and it's actually speaking of the rapture the last days, right before 390 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,160 Jesus comes back. 391 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:11,000 And in verse three, it says, those who are wise will shine brightly like the brightness 392 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,440 of heaven. 393 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:20,200 And those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever. 394 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:27,840 So you become a star for God when your number one focus is the advancement of his kingdom. 395 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,040 And you know, yeah, go ahead. 396 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:35,560 The tagline in my emails is we're here to make God a star, something they'll always 397 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:36,560 remember. 398 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,080 So for you to say that the star, I love it. 399 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:41,080 Amen. 400 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:42,920 And that's exactly what we want to do. 401 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:48,160 We want to make the name of Jesus famous on the earth. 402 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,400 So the question is, is how do we do these things? 403 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,000 You know, and you have to look at the book of Acts. 404 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,080 Now the Holy Spirit gives us many ideas on how we can reach people, but today I just 405 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:02,080 want to give some practical things on how we can reach people and get people hungry to 406 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,080 do it. 407 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,080 Get out your pens. 408 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:05,080 Get out your pens. 409 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,080 Exactly. 410 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:12,320 I see Jesus said, go out into the highways and byways and compel people to come into 411 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,000 my father's house so that my father's house might be full. 412 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:22,560 Jesus also said, you know the saying, four months between planting a seed and harvesting 413 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:23,560 a seed. 414 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:31,360 Then Jesus said, wake up and look around for the fields are already ripe for harvest. 415 00:21:31,360 --> 00:21:34,960 I'm going to tell you the world is hungry for a savior. 416 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,520 It's actually not that hard to lead people to Jesus. 417 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,560 We just need the skill, the knowing how to do it through the word and the power of the 418 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,080 Holy Ghost flowing through us and the willingness and the willing. 419 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,840 Yes, once again, when you're willing, but that's good. 420 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,760 That's such an important thing when you're willing. 421 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,000 When you see that's how it started for me doing street evangelism. 422 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,320 You know, when I got into ministry, I didn't have any preaching opportunities right away. 423 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:03,280 You know, God opened things up as time went on, but I decided God, I'm about your kingdom. 424 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:09,440 See the first commandment, the best commandment of the Bible, it will fill all the commandments, 425 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,440 the Bible says, love God with all your heart, all your strength, all your mind and love 426 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,200 your neighbor as yourself. 427 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,040 So I decided, listen, I'm going to go out in the streets. 428 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:24,240 I'm going to lead people to Jesus because every person that walks by you is a soul that 429 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,280 will spend eternity in one of two places. 430 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,080 And we have to get the compassion of God in our hearts. 431 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:37,320 And one way to really encourage somebody is to realize that heaven is a real place. 432 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,640 Hell is a real place. 433 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,800 And everybody will spend eternity in one of those two places. 434 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,640 And we see from hell that it is, Jesus talked about hell more than he talked about heaven. 435 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,640 He is more about hell than heaven in the teachings of Jesus. 436 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:52,640 Why? 437 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:58,360 Because Jesus was warning us of this terrible place where there's weeping, gnashing of 438 00:22:58,360 --> 00:23:00,560 teeth for all eternity. 439 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,440 And the thing about it is, is Jesus never made hell for human beings. 440 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:06,440 He didn't. 441 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:11,200 The Bible says he doesn't get any pleasure out of seeing the wicked perish. 442 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:16,320 The Bible says he set before us life and death, blessings and cursings, how he wishes we would 443 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:17,320 choose life. 444 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,920 So everybody has to make a choice. 445 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,440 But for me, it all started with the compassion of Jesus for the lost and dying souls of this 446 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:30,360 world, realizing that every person is going to spend eternity somewhere. 447 00:23:30,360 --> 00:23:33,080 And Jesus already did all he can do. 448 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,080 He did it all. 449 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,920 He laid down his life for God. 450 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,400 So loved the world that he gave everything. 451 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:46,040 His only begotten son that whoever would believe on him would not perish, but have everlasting 452 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,040 life. 453 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,320 Jesus said, I am the way. 454 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,520 I am the truth. 455 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:51,520 I am the life. 456 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:56,040 See, even the Pope, he's one on national television and said, the Pope, this is, you know, so 457 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,200 supposedly a Christian denomination. 458 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,360 It doesn't matter if you follow Buddha. 459 00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:02,160 Doesn't matter if you follow Muhammad. 460 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,440 Doesn't matter if you follow Jesus. 461 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:05,880 God knows your heart. 462 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,880 And ultimately one day you'll make it to heaven. 463 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,800 That's the biggest lie from the pits of hell. 464 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,440 Jesus said, I hold the keys of death, hell and the grave. 465 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,360 So when we have the willingness to go out, I always say this. 466 00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:25,160 It actually takes more faith not to believe that Jesus is the only way than it does to 467 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,520 believe he is. 468 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,640 And this is how the early church evangelized a lot. 469 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,480 They evangelized through proof. 470 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:32,960 And that's what I'm going to teach tonight. 471 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:37,360 It is a fact that Jesus is the Son of God and he's the only way to heaven. 472 00:24:37,360 --> 00:24:38,360 And how do we know that? 473 00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:40,160 It's the same way Paul evangelized. 474 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,840 It's the same way that Philip the evangelist evangelized. 475 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,840 Number one is through prophecy. 476 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,320 Buddha never prophesied anything that came true. 477 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:48,320 Nothing. 478 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,800 Muhammad prophesied nothing that came true. 479 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:56,360 No so-called God prophesied anything that came true. 480 00:24:56,360 --> 00:25:04,000 But 33% of the Bible is things that were foretold by the prophets thousands of years ago and 481 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:11,040 they have all happened with complete and total accuracy except the soon return of Jesus Christ. 482 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,280 And we know why he hasn't returned yet. 483 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:14,280 One through prophecy. 484 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:19,160 Two, and you don't have to necessarily go through this, but it is good for people to 485 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:25,640 know that the resurrection of Jesus, there's more proof of the resurrection of Jesus than 486 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,640 there is of many famous people who've lived on the earth. 487 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,480 I could take you to Buddha's grave. 488 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:31,480 I could take you to this grave. 489 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:32,480 Muhammad, all of them. 490 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,800 They have a grave and you can go to it. 491 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,240 But the most famous man that ever lived, and this is not my opinion, this is a fact. 492 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,600 Jesus is the most famous man that ever lived. 493 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:47,280 They have never found his grave after 2000 years because just like the Bible prophesied 494 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:53,880 that he loved us so much that he's seen us when we were in our sin and Christ still loved 495 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,760 us and died for us and that he rose from the dead. 496 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:57,920 He is alive today. 497 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:03,360 He's in heaven waiting for us to do the great commission and get the gospel out. 498 00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:08,440 So prophecy, the resurrection of Jesus, the word of God, which my wife's going to teach 499 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,880 you on a little bit tonight on how to lead somebody to Jesus in one minute. 500 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,640 Because we want to be a little bit practical tonight. 501 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,120 You know, because like I said, people want to do it. 502 00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:18,120 They just don't know how. 503 00:26:18,120 --> 00:26:20,400 So for me, it all started with willingness, Josh. 504 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,080 I started going out in the street, not getting a lot of results, getting a little bit. 505 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,520 I started leading people to Jesus. 506 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,120 People would think, what do you even say? 507 00:26:28,120 --> 00:26:29,120 What do you start with? 508 00:26:29,120 --> 00:26:30,120 Exactly. 509 00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:31,120 What do you start with? 510 00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:35,640 So, you know, I did the best I could and God gave me results, but I got hungry for more. 511 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,520 I knew God, there's got to be something that works. 512 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,560 And ultimately it is the word of God, which she's going to get into in a second. 513 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,120 And it's just preaching the word. 514 00:26:44,120 --> 00:26:46,000 That's what Peter did on the day of Pentecost. 515 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,160 He preached the word to them and it pricked their hearts. 516 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,280 You got to lead people to a decision with the word of God, which she's going to get 517 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:54,480 into. 518 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,720 And one of the things I want to talk about is miracle signs and wonders, what the early 519 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,120 church had. 520 00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:03,080 And we've seen great results with it. 521 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:10,280 The Bible says many believed on Jesus seeing the miracles that he did. 522 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:16,280 Romans 15, Paul said, I have fully presented the good news, the gospel. 523 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,280 Why? 524 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:18,280 He said this way. 525 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:27,080 He said the Gentiles are fully persuaded that Jesus is the Messiah through miracles, 526 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,600 signs and wonders, and through the power of the Holy Ghost. 527 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:34,160 And in this way, I fully presented the good news of Christ. 528 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,400 See the gospel of Jesus Christ, the good news, it's a miracle signs and wonders. 529 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,680 And the church of America and around the world has to get back to that place where miracles 530 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:43,680 are the regular. 531 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:48,280 And that's the problem is people go through church for years and they don't see miracles 532 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,760 and then their faith isn't alive. 533 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:56,680 But when people start experiencing the power, we see blind eyes open, we see deaf ears open 534 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:57,680 all the time. 535 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,520 It's not like a random thing. 536 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,720 It's a regular thing. 537 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,520 And many believe on Jesus seeing it. 538 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,520 Babe, I want you to tell him the story about the crusade we did. 539 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,840 Let me just give you a little underline. 540 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:13,600 I gave an altar call like I always do from preaching the word, because the word works. 541 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:18,080 You have to have a little extra for some people who've been in religion for a long time or 542 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,880 you know, and just don't believe, you know, I don't like the Christian thing. 543 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,720 And so anyways, the altar call was full. 544 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,680 I don't know how many of them there was 50 to 100 people. 545 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,920 It was packed. 546 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,840 And then tell him what happened after that. 547 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,520 But well, usually whenever he does the altar call, then he just prays for people, right? 548 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,080 But he tells me the Holy Spirit is leading me to do something else. 549 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,080 Let's do another altar call. 550 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:43,000 So he does a second altar call call for salvation. 551 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,920 He starts doing the altar call. 552 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:50,400 But before doing the altar call, he said, I feel there's people here that are deaf 553 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,320 and God's going to heal them right now. 554 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,280 So there's this girls that came to the altar and he prays for them. 555 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:58,280 Two deaf girls. 556 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,960 Two deaf girls, one of them immediately. 557 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:05,600 She was only deaf in one ear and immediately the power of God hit her. 558 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:06,880 She fell down on the floor. 559 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,480 She was crying. 560 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,920 She could hear for the first time. 561 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,720 The other girl was totally healed as well. 562 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:14,720 Both were immediate. 563 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,240 And both are on the floor crying, right? 564 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,240 So then he does the second altar call. 565 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:20,240 Which I never do. 566 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,640 That he, like honestly, since we've been in ministry, I don't even remember another 567 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,080 time he has done that. 568 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,280 And I'm like, he's doing a second altar call. 569 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:28,840 Like, but that's just me, right? 570 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,460 Because I'm translating. 571 00:29:30,460 --> 00:29:35,240 So the second altar call powerful and the altar is packed. 572 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,840 And there's this tall man in the back, like Josh, he's tall as Josh because 101 people 573 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:40,840 are not tall. 574 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:41,840 Josh is tall. 575 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:48,960 For us, for us, man, he could pop up in the middle of the crowd. 576 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:50,240 He's in the back. 577 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:55,480 He was staring at us full of tattoos, arms crossed like he didn't have a face. 578 00:29:55,480 --> 00:30:01,680 He was like, but as he does the altar call, he comes to the front, right? 579 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,200 He gives his life to Jesus. 580 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,220 He's holding the girl's hand. 581 00:30:07,220 --> 00:30:11,960 She was his daughter, one of the girls that got healed, that she was deaf. 582 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,200 And they both come to the altar crying. 583 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,060 And I remember Justin praying for him. 584 00:30:17,060 --> 00:30:22,760 He went out into the power of God on the floor, touched by the Holy Spirit. 585 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,320 And we have talked to the people from the church that was their first time coming to 586 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:27,400 church. 587 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,720 And since then, the whole family is saved. 588 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,760 They're all serving God in that church. 589 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,480 They're all together. 590 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,320 And their lives have been totally transformed. 591 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:44,600 And it all started with one miracle, actually being obedient and hearing the voice of the 592 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:45,600 Holy Spirit. 593 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:50,840 Because the Holy Spirit told us and prayed for deaf people, then do a second altar call. 594 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,400 They got saved and their lives are totally transformed. 595 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,920 And the awesome thing is that they're serving God. 596 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,400 And also, we just give glory to the Lord. 597 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,280 And the second altar call was bigger than the first one. 598 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,720 Because the people witnessed all the miracles. 599 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,920 It really awakens people up. 600 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:06,920 Amen. 601 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,640 I just want to say this. 602 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,200 We've ministered tons of times in many places. 603 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,760 The last four months, we preached almost every night. 604 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,640 But that night, probably, it's in our hearts. 605 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,760 It's one of the biggest moves of God we've ever seen. 606 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,440 It's just for being obedient to the voice of the Lord. 607 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:26,440 And that works out anywhere. 608 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:31,480 Back when I used to do a lot of street evangelism, I remember going into Walmart. 609 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:32,480 And I seen a lady. 610 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:33,840 She just looked like she was in pain. 611 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,120 Wasn't like God told me she was in pain. 612 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,160 She just looked like she was in pain. 613 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,960 And I went up to her and I preached to her, like, we're going to teach you guys to do, 614 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,720 which is a very high success rate of working. 615 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,440 And she said, no, no, I don't want to hear about God. 616 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,440 You know? 617 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,880 I said, well, you look like you're in a lot of pain. 618 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:50,880 Where's your pain at? 619 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:51,880 You know? 620 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,640 And I said, in my back, I said, what if God healed you right now? 621 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:54,640 Wouldn't you do it then? 622 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:55,640 She was another lady. 623 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:56,640 You look pretty mean, rough. 624 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:57,640 And I was quick. 625 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,160 I said, I'm going to pray for you. 626 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,120 Pray for her immediately. 627 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,120 All of her back pain left. 628 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,680 And I said, one out of 10, there was a level 10 back pain. 629 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,960 So full pain, you know? 630 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,480 Immediately she bends over before she even reaches back up, tears are streaming down her 631 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,800 eyes and she gives her life to Christ. 632 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:19,040 The woman whose heart was so hardened towards God was immediately opened up to God. 633 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:25,880 So we have to, as the body of Christ, we have to believe for the power of God to be manifested. 634 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,880 And early on in my ministry, I didn't see results right away. 635 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,880 I prayed for people in the end to get healed. 636 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,120 But I kept going because I knew that it was the master key of the gospel. 637 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,800 Jesus said, go into all the world. 638 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,640 See people already have religion. 639 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:40,640 Go into all the world. 640 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,480 They've already had something they believe and preach the good news to them. 641 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,800 And these signs will follow them who believe. 642 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,360 They'll lay their hands on the sick. 643 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:51,520 The sick will recover. 644 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:52,920 They will cast out demons. 645 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:57,000 I usually not serve as they go by when we don't see demons cast out of people. 646 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,200 And it changes people and it makes God. 647 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,720 And you start to really realize God is in your midst all the time. 648 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,280 He's here right now, you know, and he's a powerful God. 649 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:08,600 So miracles are important. 650 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,680 It's something we should be hungry for. 651 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,760 And I got really hungry for it at the beginning of my ministry because I didn't see the results 652 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:14,760 right away. 653 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,600 Same thing happened in the great evangelist, T.L. 654 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:17,600 Osborn. 655 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,000 He was preaching in, I believe, India. 656 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,680 And even in their religion, they believe in Jesus. 657 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,200 You know, he was a prophet. 658 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,760 They just cut it off where they say he's the son of God, you know, and they were listening 659 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,640 to his preaching, but he wasn't getting results. 660 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:32,640 You know, he got hungry. 661 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:37,760 He started fasting, praying, God, like, you've got to give me something that's going to reach 662 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,000 these people. 663 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:44,000 And Jesus actually visited him and released the power of God to him. 664 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,360 And he went back to India and it's, we preach in a hundred Honduras and we hear stories 665 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:53,640 of T.L. Osborn coming and the government coming and the multitudes coming because God gave 666 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,320 them something that was able to reach the people beyond the word. 667 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,040 Now the word is the most powerful thing, you know, it's what pricks the heart. 668 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:06,400 There's something when you release the word, the Holy Ghost, it's a miracle in itself, 669 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,640 really, because people are just saying it's telling somebody the word. 670 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,440 It's just like a dry thing. 671 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,680 It's not, it is a powerful thing. 672 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,880 I always encourage people, go out and approach people. 673 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,880 Your flesh doesn't want to do it, trust me. 674 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:23,320 The Bible says your flesh is at war with your spirit and your spirit is at war with your 675 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:27,080 flesh to keep you from doing the things you really want to do. 676 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:32,920 See their things as believers, what you really want to do and the flesh gets in the way. 677 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,360 And so I always tell people, go up to somebody with a teardrop tattoo, the biggest looking 678 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,160 guy and start with him. 679 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,560 If you can get to him and you can talk to anybody. 680 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:48,200 That reminds me of what Todd said in his look for the person in the family that can 681 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,160 change everyone else after them. 682 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:56,280 In sales, you could call it selling to the monkey, the one who's more agreeable. 683 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,760 So if you're sitting down with a husband and a wife and you're talking and you're using 684 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:04,840 all that body language and the wife is doing this, you talk to her. 685 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:05,840 She's going to convince him. 686 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,600 And if he's the one that's enthralled with what you're saying, then you talk to him 687 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:14,840 and you're selling to him and he will lead the other one. 688 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:19,720 And so you focus on the one that's more agreeable and let God work through that person closer 689 00:35:19,720 --> 00:35:23,120 to everybody else in his family or her family. 690 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,120 That's smart. 691 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,680 And the Holy Ghost gives us great ideas like that because that's a promise of the Bible 692 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:33,040 that I said in the book of Acts all the time, you and your whole household will be saved. 693 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,240 Sometimes you got to pinpoint a certain person first. 694 00:35:36,240 --> 00:35:41,720 And what we're about to teach the last part is we do this in a multitude of people too. 695 00:35:41,720 --> 00:35:42,720 Like I'll be out in the streets. 696 00:35:42,720 --> 00:35:44,400 I won't always go up to one person. 697 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,120 Sometimes we'll go up to five people at a time, get a whole group together and hit them 698 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,240 with what we call the soul winning script. 699 00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:54,400 Really though, before she teaches on that, I'm just going to give an altar call to the 700 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:55,960 other people that are listening. 701 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,440 You know, we're going to teach, finish this teaching on how to win souls, but there could 702 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,120 be people listening right now that even their own soul isn't one. 703 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:10,680 The Bible says, what is it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul? 704 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,640 And there could be people that's listening that they've gone through their whole life 705 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:15,520 and they've never given their life to Jesus. 706 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,880 I want to just tell you what the Bible says. 707 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,880 Today is the day of salvation. 708 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:26,120 If there's ever a time in history where you do not want to put off being right with God, 709 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,920 it's in the time we're living in right now. 710 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:34,680 If Jesus is coming back at 12 o'clock, it's 1159, 59 right now. 711 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:39,400 The disciple said, Jesus, how will we know when you're going to return? 712 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,760 And he said many things, but he said something very specific. 713 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:49,600 He said, when you see the fig tree, but again, he was talking about Israel, the generation 714 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:55,360 that sees it with their eyes will not come to pass before I return. 715 00:36:55,360 --> 00:37:00,520 So Israel was not a nation and people never thought it would be a nation again, but just 716 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:05,840 like Jesus said, the Bible also prophesied about Israel, could a nation be born again 717 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:07,680 in one day's time? 718 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:12,040 So in the 1940s, the devil raised up a man named Adolf Hitler. 719 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,320 See that's an important thing too, a man. 720 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:19,760 And the devil needs a man and God needs a man or a woman to do his work. 721 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,840 You know, none of them are just working on their own. 722 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,360 They're working through humans. 723 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:28,520 And he raised up a man to wipe off the Jewish population off the earth, to stop that prophecy 724 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:29,520 from being fulfilled. 725 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,560 But the devil's a failure. 726 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:38,600 And just like the Bible prophesied, in one day's time, in 1948, Israel became a nation 727 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:39,600 again. 728 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:44,200 And Jesus said, when you see this happen, the generation that sees it will come back 729 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:49,200 and that sees it with their eyes will not come to pass before I return. 730 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:56,160 If you do the math and when 1948 was, we're coming to that very end right now. 731 00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:00,520 The last person to be able to live a life, let's just say a generation's 100 years, 732 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:05,720 you know, people not fully sure on that part, whether it's 80, 70 or 100, still there's 733 00:38:05,720 --> 00:38:07,200 not much time left. 734 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:08,200 Tick tock. 735 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:09,200 Tick tock. 736 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:10,200 And it's up to us. 737 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,160 And if you're listening to now and you've never given your life to Christ, I urge you 738 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:14,720 to do it now. 739 00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:22,480 Paul said, I work hard to persuade men knowing the soon terror of the Lord. 740 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,280 And Jesus does not want you to experience that terror. 741 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,800 And that's why we're preaching to you tonight. 742 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:30,960 That's why they have this podcast because we love you and we love people like Jesus 743 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,680 loves you to maybe you're listening now and you once gave your life to Christ, but you 744 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,080 fallen away from him. 745 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,280 You're not living for him as you should. 746 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,280 I got good news for you too. 747 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:46,040 Jesus leaves the 99 to get the one who has fallen away. 748 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,840 You can come back to him tonight and determine you're going to live for him until you hear 749 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,200 that trumpet sound, which is called the rapture of the church. 750 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,080 It is a real event that's going to happen. 751 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,480 And Jesus is going to come get us soon. 752 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,880 And we're going to catch away out of this world into heaven. 753 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:02,880 And I'm looking forward to it. 754 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,200 So if you're following any of those categories, I want you to pray with me right now. 755 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:11,720 The Bible says, if you believe in your heart that Jesus is the Messiah and that he rose 756 00:39:11,720 --> 00:39:17,120 from the dead and you confess it with your mouth, you will be saved. 757 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,200 This isn't some religious prayer. 758 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,880 Jesus is with you right now. 759 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:27,640 Don't let this moment pass you by for God so loved you that he gave his only begotten 760 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,800 some that whoever would believe on him would not perish. 761 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,080 So pray this with me right now. 762 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:34,600 Say it from your heart. 763 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,880 Say it out of your mouth loud to God and God's going to meet you right now in your living 764 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,760 room, right in your car, right in your office, wherever you're at. 765 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:46,200 Say Lord Jesus Christ, I call on you today. 766 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,320 Forgive me of all my sins. 767 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,880 Cleanse me of all unrighteousness. 768 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,320 Jesus, I believe you're the only way to heaven. 769 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,480 I believe you rose from the dead. 770 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,840 Make me new right now. 771 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:05,240 And from this day forward, God, I will only follow you. 772 00:40:05,240 --> 00:40:06,960 God you are my father. 773 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,920 Heaven is my home and I will not turn back in Jesus. 774 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,360 If you pray that, I'm telling you your sins are forgiven. 775 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:15,840 Heaven is your home. 776 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:20,880 Going into the last part right now, tell them, babe, how to lead somebody to Christ in a 777 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:21,880 minute's time. 778 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,480 Well, we learned this strategy last summer. 779 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,520 We went to a summer school of evangelism in the River Tampa Bay. 780 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:32,400 And I remember that they would say, you can lead somebody to the Lord in a minute and 781 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,560 I'm like, how is that possible? 782 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,240 It seems impossible, but with God, all things are possible. 783 00:40:39,240 --> 00:40:42,160 So God gave this, this is just a strategy. 784 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,240 Somebody's listening and you're listening to this. 785 00:40:44,240 --> 00:40:46,320 This is just a strategy. 786 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,600 It's not written down in rocks. 787 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:53,280 You can let the Holy Spirit lead you on how to do it, but this is how we do it. 788 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,920 First of all, as we were all talking, we have to be willing to go. 789 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,640 And the Holy Spirit is the one that touches people's hearts. 790 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:06,760 So you have to be full of the Holy Spirit, pray it up and then you just go because God 791 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,920 doesn't sit with the sitters. 792 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,280 He goes with the goers. 793 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,480 So we need to go. 794 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:13,960 It's not going to happen in your couch. 795 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,360 It's not going to happen watching TV. 796 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,920 You have to go to the streets. 797 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,840 So you just go to one person. 798 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,960 We recommend that you always go in couples. 799 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:30,120 The Bible says that Jesus sent the disciples in couples, in twos, you know, so there should 800 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,960 be always somebody with you. 801 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:33,960 It's good to have somebody with you. 802 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,560 I used to go alone all the time. 803 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,200 Just for wisdom, you know. 804 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:38,200 Just for wisdom. 805 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,360 It's an advice that we give, right? 806 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:46,440 So the first thing, this is called the gospel soul winning script. 807 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:47,760 It's in all the languages. 808 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:48,760 It's online. 809 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:54,680 You can look it up or we can post it whenever we can put it on the notes in the description. 810 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,480 The first thing you ask a question. 811 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:02,480 Has anyone ever told you that God loves you and that he has a wonderful plan for your 812 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:03,480 life? 813 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:04,680 You just approach people. 814 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,360 You don't ask them if they have a minute. 815 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,080 You are compelling people. 816 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,880 There's an urgency, you know, and you know, American people, if you ask them, hey, do 817 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:14,920 you have a minute, people are going to say no. 818 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,120 So you just go straight. 819 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,120 All right. 820 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:18,120 Can I pray for you? 821 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:19,120 No. 822 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:20,120 And people are going to say no. 823 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:21,120 Just go right up to them. 824 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:22,120 So you ask them something. 825 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,600 It's a yes or no question. 826 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,400 Has anyone ever told you that God loves you and that he has a wonderful plan for your 827 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:29,400 life? 828 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:30,400 So you say yes. 829 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:31,400 No. 830 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,680 Nobody has told me or most people say yes. 831 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:35,440 And then you go quickly to the second question. 832 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,480 Because remember, people don't have time. 833 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,160 This is not something that they want to be all day long. 834 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:42,160 You got a minute. 835 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:43,160 You have a minute to do this. 836 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:47,180 I have a real quick, but important question to ask you. 837 00:42:47,180 --> 00:42:53,320 If you were to die this very second, do you know for sure be on a shadow of a doubt that 838 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,360 you would go to heaven? 839 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:59,160 Some people would say yes, because I've been a good person. 840 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,160 Other people would say no, I'm not sure. 841 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:07,880 And that's whenever you tell them, we recommend you to get this script and you just read the 842 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:08,880 script. 843 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:14,280 And you say, depending on what they answer, you say, let me quickly share with you what 844 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,160 the Holy Bible reads. 845 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:21,440 We are teaching or preaching the word because the word always works. 846 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:27,520 And as I'm telling you this, I remember going out in Tampa, I was in Walmart and I was doing 847 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,400 my training with this old winning script. 848 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,080 We go to this couple and I did the same thing. 849 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,960 I'm like, has anybody told you that God loves you and he has a great plan for your life? 850 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:40,220 And the husband said, no, we are Catholics and we don't want to hear about it. 851 00:43:40,220 --> 00:43:42,600 So you keep going with the script. 852 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:43,600 That's what you do. 853 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:47,080 So then I'm like, let me ask you a quick question. 854 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,760 If you were going to die today, do you know without a shadow of a doubt if you would go 855 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:51,760 to heaven? 856 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,720 And they said, no, they didn't know. 857 00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:56,200 They weren't sure if they were going to go to heaven. 858 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:57,720 And then I went with the script. 859 00:43:57,720 --> 00:44:00,600 Let me quickly share with you what the Holy Bible says. 860 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:06,400 It says that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God and for the wages of sin 861 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:07,600 is death. 862 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:12,000 But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. 863 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:17,400 And the Bible also says that whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. 864 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,200 And you're a whosoever, right? 865 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:20,360 That's what I told them. 866 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,160 They said, yes. 867 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,640 And then we kept going with the script. 868 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:28,160 And then I'm like, just repeat after me, dear Lord Jesus. 869 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:34,960 And they said, dear Lord Jesus, as they said, dear Lord Jesus, the wife starts crying like 870 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:35,960 a baby. 871 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:40,800 Dear Lord Jesus, come into my heart, forgive me of my sins. 872 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,000 I repent of my sins today. 873 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,000 I ask to be away from my old life. 874 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,600 My sins are forgiven. 875 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,520 Get my name in the Lamb's Book of Life from today. 876 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:56,040 I'm a new person and they prayed with me, both of them prayed with me, the prayer of 877 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,040 salvation. 878 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:01,840 Then as we are praying, the Holy Spirit showed me like a vision of her. 879 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,640 She had problems to sleep. 880 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,200 She was suffering of anxiety. 881 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:09,000 So I started praying for her and she was totally delivered. 882 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:10,680 She was totally free. 883 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:15,000 And they asked me for the information of the church and they said they were going to start 884 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:16,000 going to the church. 885 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,000 Three scriptures. 886 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,000 Three scriptures. 887 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,200 So tell them real quick again, three scriptures. 888 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:21,200 Three scriptures. 889 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:22,200 Everybody has sinned. 890 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,680 Everybody has sinned and has fallen short of the glory of God. 891 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,160 And the wages of sin is eternal death. 892 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:33,840 But then it says, but the Bible also says that the gift of God is eternal life through 893 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:39,720 Jesus Christ our Lord and whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. 894 00:45:39,720 --> 00:45:41,440 And all those are the word. 895 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:45,840 Everything that I said is the word and the word always works. 896 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,000 So we just want to encourage you. 897 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,500 This is a strategy. 898 00:45:49,500 --> 00:45:52,960 As I said, they're going to write it on the description. 899 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,720 It's a way that you can win somebody to the Lord. 900 00:45:55,720 --> 00:45:59,280 And maybe you might be asking, what if I cannot take them to church? 901 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:00,280 What if I cannot? 902 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,800 The Bible says that somebody plants the seed. 903 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:08,480 Another person waters the seed and probably another person's going to see the fruit of 904 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:09,480 that seed that you planted. 905 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:10,480 But definitely invite them though. 906 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:11,480 Invite them to church. 907 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:12,480 But you need to go. 908 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:13,480 You need to see the church. 909 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:17,880 You need to go and you need to start going and letting the Holy Spirit direct you because 910 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:18,880 the time is now. 911 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,480 And as my husband said, today is the day of salvation. 912 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:26,240 And we've seen tons of people say this thing works. 913 00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:28,200 I've been there for years before we went there. 914 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:29,200 It works. 915 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:33,360 Last time I said, do the work of an evangelist and make foolproof of your ministry and Jesus. 916 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:34,360 Amen. 917 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:35,360 Amen. 918 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,520 I have listened to a YouTuber. 919 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,600 He does more than you to where his name is Ray Comfort. 920 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:40,760 Oh yeah, Ray. 921 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,360 And he is a church of living waters. 922 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,360 And his evangelism is almost spot on to that. 923 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,720 He has a few other qualifying things and gets him going. 924 00:46:47,720 --> 00:46:50,520 He modifies it, makes it his own. 925 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:51,520 He starts off with that. 926 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,520 Are you, or do you know where you're going to go? 927 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:54,520 Yes. 928 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:55,520 Yes. 929 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,440 And so when you said that, it's like, hey, that sounds, that sounds very familiar. 930 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,440 And you know, he has, he evangelizes, he has testimonies. 931 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,560 He's got lots of people that have been changed by the power of Jesus in their life when they 932 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,840 realize, like when they get all the pieces laid in front of them, they can see all the 933 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,800 information and they can finally make an informed decision. 934 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:13,800 Sure. 935 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:14,800 Right. 936 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:15,800 I've watched his videos as well. 937 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:16,800 Yeah, it's, it's a horrible stuff. 938 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:17,800 Yeah. 939 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:18,800 Yeah, absolutely. 940 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,800 I mean, you said that I was like, oh, this is so incredible, you know, that's exactly 941 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,280 what this other guy does. 942 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:23,280 Yeah, yeah. 943 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:24,280 That's fun. 944 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:25,280 Yeah. 945 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:26,280 What he does works well. 946 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:27,280 He does it longer. 947 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:31,120 I think he tells him ahead of time though, you know, take a little time, but yeah. 948 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:36,800 But you just have to trust the Holy Spirit, you know, because it does work in the last 949 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,400 testimony about that. 950 00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:42,480 One of the girls that was part of the School of Evangelism, she said that somebody approached 951 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,280 to her because in Tampa, this is common. 952 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:48,680 This church goes out every day with tons of people to do evangelism. 953 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,080 She did the script. 954 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,000 She said that at the moment, I'm like, I don't care. 955 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,280 I'm just going to do it for this lady to leave me alone. 956 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,520 But something was planted there. 957 00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,120 Months went by, she was on drugs. 958 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:01,560 She was addicted to heroin. 959 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,440 She was addicted to meth. 960 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,840 She was about to go to jail. 961 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:09,600 She was in her car and she said, Lord, I cannot do this anymore. 962 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:15,080 She said that she remembered the prayer that she did with this lady that was the script. 963 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,200 The power of the Holy Spirit came upon her. 964 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:21,920 She said that day she was free from addiction, from heroin, from meth. 965 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:27,080 She found the church, the river church, and she started assisting to the church congregating 966 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:28,080 there. 967 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,920 She's in Bible school and now she's in full-time ministry. 968 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,480 And she says it started with a script. 969 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,440 I didn't understand what I was saying. 970 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,240 I didn't understand what I was doing, but the Holy Spirit knows your heart. 971 00:48:39,240 --> 00:48:42,200 And He's the one that leads you into salvation. 972 00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:43,200 Praise God. 973 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,000 We praise the Lord for that. 974 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,680 I was wondering if we can end this, if you can end it with a blessing and if you could 975 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:56,600 translate into Spanish for the start of our new season, to just include another group of 976 00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:00,360 people that we are unable to reach because we don't speak Spanish. 977 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,280 So I'd love to have a blessing. 978 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,600 If you could just speak a blessing and if you could repeat that blessing. 979 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:07,400 I think that would be a wonderful thing. 980 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:08,400 That's great. 981 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:10,800 Well, thanks again for having us on. 982 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:11,800 And yeah, amen. 983 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:12,800

00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:29,120 Don't let this word come back void, but transform these people into mighty soul winners. 988 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:34,480 And we bless this ministry in Jesus' name. 989 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:39,920 Let it bear double the fruit this year than it did last year. 990 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:46,120 For the glory of your name and the increase of your kingdom. 991 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:51,080 And every person listening at the sound of my voice. 992 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,080 God is with you right now. 993 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:56,080 And I call you blessed. 994 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:57,080 Amen. 995 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:02,760 And I call you blessed in Jesus' name. 996 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:08,800 And may the days ahead of you be the greatest stage of your life. 997 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,360 Because the Bible says we go from glory to glory. 998 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,360 Victory to victory. 999 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,360 Strength to strength. 1000 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:17,360 So God bless you. 1001 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,360 In Jesus mighty name. 1002 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:22,360 I love you so much. 1003
