00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:10.160
Welcome to the God's Goodness podcast, where

00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:12.460
our mission is to encourage and highlight God's

00:00:12.460 --> 00:00:14.679
goodness and modern day miracles. We are your

00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:17.679
hosts, Josh and Shelly Hankins. Today we have

00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:20.519
with us a special couple. We have Delissa and

00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:23.420
Justin Buckles. They are evangelists that we

00:00:23.420 --> 00:00:27.500
met just last week, and oh my gosh, we were going

00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:30.679
to a healing ceremony at Wendy Lawson's. She

00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:33.020
has had a couple episodes with us, so go check

00:00:33.020 --> 00:00:36.060
her out. There's a playlist in YouTube. And she

00:00:36.060 --> 00:00:38.119
said, come to a healing ceremony. Check it out.

00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:41.380
And I had no idea what that would entail. And

00:00:41.380 --> 00:00:43.869
it turns out there was a whole sermon. And it

00:00:43.869 --> 00:00:46.250
was so good that I said, hey, can we go live?

00:00:46.609 --> 00:00:48.869
And so there is actually a live in Facebook with

00:00:48.869 --> 00:00:51.070
Justin and Dalisse. So you get to see what they

00:00:51.070 --> 00:00:55.030
look like and if you're interested in that. And

00:00:55.030 --> 00:00:57.530
they were just it was on everything's on fire

00:00:57.530 --> 00:00:59.409
that night. It was so good. People are getting

00:00:59.409 --> 00:01:02.770
healed and it was just God's goodness being revealed.

00:01:03.509 --> 00:01:06.049
And with that, the Holy Spirit, it was obvious

00:01:06.049 --> 00:01:08.849
they had to come on. And they're two evangelists

00:01:08.849 --> 00:01:10.510
and they're going to tell you about a little

00:01:10.510 --> 00:01:13.260
bit about that. That's my jam because on the

00:01:13.260 --> 00:01:15.819
gifts test that's what I tested very high for

00:01:15.819 --> 00:01:19.359
and so they're my people So with that but we're

00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:21.400
first we're gonna have them open us up with an

00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.640
opening prayer and then we'll get into it Father

Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Thanks for

00:02:09.900 --> 00:02:11.139
coming. We do appreciate it. Thank you very much.

00:02:11.139 --> 00:02:12.979
We've been on radio, we've been on television,

00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:17.080
but never podcasts like this. Checking all the

00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:19.340
boxes. Checking it. Yes, definitely. And it's

00:02:19.340 --> 00:02:21.699
new. We've had a couple people say it was their

00:02:21.699 --> 00:02:24.340
favorite interview. I believe it's going to be

00:02:24.340 --> 00:02:27.259
our favorite. We believe it. But I'm evangelist

00:02:27.259 --> 00:02:30.120
Justin Buckles. This is my wife, evangelist Delice

00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:33.199
Buckles. And God called us to Central America,

00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:36.259
Honduras. That's our main mission. We're evangelists

00:02:36.259 --> 00:02:38.479
here in America as well, you know, we come back

00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:40.379
every couple months and like we're here right

00:02:40.379 --> 00:02:42.919
now and we're gonna do a couple month tour here

00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:46.000
and we're gonna be preaching in New York next

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:48.520
week. Then we'll come back to Pennsylvania and

00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:50.819
do a big meeting here and then we'll go out to

00:02:50.819 --> 00:02:53.360
North Carolina, back to Pennsylvania, Alabama,

00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:55.979
and then in Jesus name we'll get back to Central

00:02:55.979 --> 00:02:58.639
America. Where we preach every night of the week.

00:02:58.819 --> 00:03:01.680
So tonight I'm preaching a message called doing

00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:04.860
the work of an evangelist. And we believe with

00:03:04.860 --> 00:03:07.219
all of our hearts, according to the scripture

00:03:07.219 --> 00:03:09.800
and Bible prophecy, that we're living in the

00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:12.900
last seconds of the last days, and that Jesus

00:03:12.900 --> 00:03:16.159
is coming soon. And the Bible says the only reason

00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:19.500
He hasn't returned yet is because He is waiting

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:23.259
in heaven. He's being patient because He wishes

00:03:23.259 --> 00:03:27.969
that none perish. So, we're giving our all to

00:03:27.969 --> 00:03:31.289
the ministry of the Kingdom of God, and I couldn't

00:03:31.289 --> 00:03:33.909
do without my wonderful wife, evangelist, Alicia

00:03:33.909 --> 00:03:35.689
Buckles. Want to say hi to the people then? Yes,

00:03:35.710 --> 00:03:38.189
definitely. I just want to say thank you to Shelly

00:03:38.189 --> 00:03:41.610
and Josh for having us here. It's amazing. And

00:03:41.610 --> 00:03:44.030
I do believe in divine connections, you know,

00:03:44.030 --> 00:03:46.990
and I believe we met them for such a time as

00:03:46.990 --> 00:03:49.930
this. And as my husband was saying, we do believe

00:03:49.930 --> 00:03:52.129
we're in the last days. So if you're listening

00:03:52.129 --> 00:03:54.310
to this podcast, I just want to tell you, listen

00:03:54.310 --> 00:03:57.430
to every second of it, because there's something

00:03:57.430 --> 00:04:00.530
for you today. God has a word for you. God has

00:04:00.530 --> 00:04:03.509
called us to preach the gospel. And we were just

00:04:03.509 --> 00:04:05.949
talking to my husband that this is what we love

00:04:05.949 --> 00:04:07.949
to do the most. You know, we were on the car

00:04:07.949 --> 00:04:11.560
saying, The Bible says our nourishment comes

00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.000
from doing the will of God. Like, our fulfillment

00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.240
comes from doing the will of God. Seeing souls

00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:21.259
being saved. Seeing people's lives transformed.

00:04:21.740 --> 00:04:24.639
And we are a miracle, you know? We came out of

00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.139
the darkness into the light. And as the Bible

00:04:27.139 --> 00:04:30.060
says, God has called us to bring the lost, those

00:04:30.060 --> 00:04:34.819
that are lost, into Jesus Christ. Jesus did the

00:04:34.819 --> 00:04:37.519
same yesterday, today, and forever. That's what

00:04:37.519 --> 00:04:40.720
we believe. We're preaching non -stop, and we

00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:44.319
believe that the soon return of Jesus is right

00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.800
here, you know? And that's the message that people

00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:49.180
need to hear. He can't get here soon enough.

00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:54.819
Even in the New Testament, they were always praying,

00:04:54.860 --> 00:04:58.060
Lord Jesus, come. Soon, come. Amen. That's one

00:04:58.060 --> 00:05:00.819
of my favorite songs is, Come, Jesus, come. Amen.

00:05:01.060 --> 00:05:04.680
And He is coming. Amen. But the Bible says the

00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:08.199
gospel... must be preached across the whole earth

00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:10.939
and then the end will come. And that's why this

00:05:10.939 --> 00:05:14.259
message is so important because it's up to us

00:05:14.259 --> 00:05:17.800
as believers to get the gospel, the good news

00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.939
out to the entire earth. You know, Jesus said,

00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:24.939
occupy until I come. What I love that Jesus told

00:05:24.939 --> 00:05:28.139
Peter, he said, Peter, I'm gonna make you a fisher

00:05:28.139 --> 00:05:31.750
of men now. You know, I'm an evangelist. The

00:05:31.750 --> 00:05:34.610
gift of an evangelist is to be able to win people

00:05:34.610 --> 00:05:37.850
to Christ in mass, really. You know, we do mass

00:05:37.850 --> 00:05:39.750
crusades, and you see that in the book of Acts

00:05:39.750 --> 00:05:41.870
where we'll see thousands come into the kingdom

00:05:41.870 --> 00:05:46.089
in one night. But Paul also told Timothy, who

00:05:46.089 --> 00:05:51.769
was a pastor, Timothy, do the work of an evangelist.

00:05:52.170 --> 00:05:55.920
Make full proof of your ministry. Paul was telling

00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.319
Pastor Timothy to make full proof of your ministry,

00:05:59.779 --> 00:06:02.620
do the work of an evangelist. And then the Bible

00:06:02.620 --> 00:06:07.360
says that every believer has the ministry of

00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:10.339
reconciliation. And that's why tonight's message

00:06:10.339 --> 00:06:13.180
is so important because, yes, there are gifts

00:06:13.180 --> 00:06:15.660
in the kingdom of God, like a pastor, an evangelist,

00:06:15.899 --> 00:06:18.920
prophet, on and on, but the Bible is very clear

00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:23.680
that every believer has a ministry. And I believe

00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:26.519
the greatest ministry we can have is winning

00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:29.060
souls to Christ. So tonight, I really want to

00:06:29.060 --> 00:06:31.920
see, as I'm preaching to people, to get hunger

00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:36.800
in their hearts for souls and actual Bible tactics

00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:39.980
on how to do it. You know, I found out, Josh,

00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:43.500
is that a lot of believers have the desire to

00:06:43.500 --> 00:06:45.899
win souls, but they don't know how to do it.

00:06:45.899 --> 00:06:48.279
And that's even why we started a Bible school

00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:50.899
over in Honduras called the School of Evangelism.

00:06:51.339 --> 00:06:55.779
And it's for this very reason because we're going

00:06:55.779 --> 00:06:58.079
to reach people that you're never going to be

00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:00.240
able to reach and vice versa. You're going to

00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.379
see people on a daily basis and everybody listening

00:07:02.379 --> 00:07:05.139
to this podcast who I will never get to, you

00:07:05.139 --> 00:07:08.839
will never get to. And God is relying on His

00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:12.360
army. God is raising up an army in these last

00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:16.379
seconds of time. In Isaiah 2, it prophesies that

00:07:16.379 --> 00:07:20.529
in the last days, The mountain of the Lord's

00:07:20.529 --> 00:07:23.209
house, the church, will be the highest mountain

00:07:23.209 --> 00:07:27.769
of all, the most important place on earth. And

00:07:27.769 --> 00:07:30.009
people will be coming from everywhere to come

00:07:30.009 --> 00:07:32.610
into the kingdom of God. So, before I really

00:07:32.610 --> 00:07:34.800
get into the message tonight, I want to tell

00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.420
you guys our story how we got into ministry and

00:07:38.420 --> 00:07:40.459
I believe it's gonna be inspiring to the people

00:07:40.459 --> 00:07:43.459
that are listening that God not only can he use

00:07:43.459 --> 00:07:47.459
anybody he can raise people up quickly because

00:07:47.459 --> 00:07:50.399
we were in the last seconds of the last days

00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:53.660
and God the Bible says he's looking to and fro

00:07:53.660 --> 00:07:56.240
through the whole earth looking for somebody

00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:00.240
whose heart is willing you know his heart is

00:08:00.269 --> 00:08:02.870
a pure heart that wants to win souls. And when

00:08:02.870 --> 00:08:07.910
he finds that person, he will show himself off

00:08:07.910 --> 00:08:11.189
mightily on his behalf. And I believe tonight,

00:08:11.370 --> 00:08:14.230
as the word goes out, it's gonna touch people

00:08:14.230 --> 00:08:16.449
and God's gonna see their hearts and he's gonna

00:08:16.449 --> 00:08:19.769
mark them and use them in a great way in these

00:08:19.769 --> 00:08:22.470
last seconds of time. You know, the gospel is

00:08:22.470 --> 00:08:24.089
the good news and that's what we preach to people,

00:08:24.230 --> 00:08:26.829
you know, that Jesus is the only way to heaven.

00:08:26.930 --> 00:08:30.689
Jesus said, I am the way. I'm the only way. I'm

00:08:30.689 --> 00:08:33.129
the truth. I'm the life, and I'm the only way

00:08:33.129 --> 00:08:36.549
unto the Father. And, you know, it's only through

00:08:36.549 --> 00:08:39.529
Jesus Christ that our sins can be forgiven, that

00:08:39.529 --> 00:08:42.450
we know heaven is our home, and it's only by

00:08:42.450 --> 00:08:45.529
the power of God that we can have a transformed

00:08:45.529 --> 00:08:50.289
life. So, I'm a preacher. Amen. And I think I

00:08:50.289 --> 00:08:51.669
always say this when I'm preaching. I think I'm

00:08:51.669 --> 00:08:53.409
a pretty good preacher. You know, I dress nice,

00:08:53.409 --> 00:08:58.759
you know, and I look presentable. I wasn't always

00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:02.000
like that. For most of my life, I was addicted

00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.159
to heroin, methamphetamine, and many drugs, and

00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:08.419
I was bound. I tried everything to get off drugs.

00:09:08.460 --> 00:09:10.019
I didn't even want to be on drugs. I just couldn't

00:09:10.019 --> 00:09:14.399
stop. I tried rehabs, medicine, herbals, you

00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:18.419
name it. I tried it. It ended up coming down

00:09:18.419 --> 00:09:20.320
to, well, actually on this street that you guys

00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.100
are on right now, right here on Bower Hill, I

00:09:23.100 --> 00:09:25.399
got my first DUI driving under the influence

00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:27.559
of heroin, where I ran into the police station.

00:09:28.109 --> 00:09:30.529
Well, I ran into another police station in Washington

00:09:30.529 --> 00:09:32.830
as well, and I would say, what kind of idiot

00:09:32.830 --> 00:09:35.210
runs into two police stations if somebody under

00:09:35.210 --> 00:09:37.509
the power of the devil? The kind God wants to

00:09:37.509 --> 00:09:41.389
get sober. Amen. Exactly. That too, Josh. So

00:09:41.389 --> 00:09:43.409
I had four DUIs, and I was looking at a 10 -year

00:09:43.409 --> 00:09:46.169
prison sentence. Wow. And I had never been to

00:09:46.169 --> 00:09:49.009
jail in my life. But in one year, I went to jail

00:09:49.009 --> 00:09:51.889
eight times. Was it the Allegheny County Jail

00:09:51.889 --> 00:09:55.809
by chance? Washington County. A lot of people

00:09:55.809 --> 00:09:58.169
get saved in the Allegheny County Jail. Hey,

00:09:58.370 --> 00:10:00.490
I think God saves a lot of people in a lot of

00:10:00.490 --> 00:10:04.610
jails. For sure. So anyways, I was looking at

00:10:04.610 --> 00:10:07.610
a 10 -year prison sentence. Now I'm in handcuffs

00:10:07.610 --> 00:10:10.190
for the ninth time. And my probation officer

00:10:10.190 --> 00:10:12.649
says, listen. You've been to jail eight times

00:10:12.649 --> 00:10:15.429
this year. There's no more chances for you. You're

00:10:15.429 --> 00:10:17.590
going to go and serve your 10 -year prison sentence

00:10:17.590 --> 00:10:20.529
now. Chances up, you know, at that point. And

00:10:20.529 --> 00:10:23.769
at that moment, I cried out from the bottom of

00:10:23.769 --> 00:10:26.549
my heart. And I said, Lord, if you'll deliver

00:10:26.549 --> 00:10:29.610
me and you'll save me, I'll serve you. I'll do

00:10:29.610 --> 00:10:32.929
whatever you want me to do. And this judge that

00:10:32.929 --> 00:10:35.649
I would go in front of, he would always do what

00:10:35.649 --> 00:10:38.690
the probation officer recommended. So she said,

00:10:38.950 --> 00:10:42.100
go to jail. He was going to do it. Well, she

00:10:42.100 --> 00:10:44.159
recommended for me to go to prison. And this

00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.600
day, something different happened. He got this

00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:48.759
crazy look in his eyes. And now I know it was

00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:51.200
the Holy Ghost coming on him. And he dropped

00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:53.799
his glasses and he said, you know what? I think

00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:56.299
we're going to give Justin one more chance. Instead

00:10:56.299 --> 00:10:58.559
of sending him to prison, he says, no, we're

00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:00.440
going to send Justin to rehab in a halfway house.

00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:02.860
And I already told you, I've already been to

00:11:02.860 --> 00:11:04.779
rehab. That never worked for me, anything like

00:11:04.779 --> 00:11:08.019
that. And I determined from that day that I was

00:11:08.019 --> 00:11:11.370
going to serve the Lord. And I was going to do

00:11:11.370 --> 00:11:13.690
whatever I had to do. And it was during that

00:11:13.690 --> 00:11:16.029
time I started to do what I never did before.

00:11:16.190 --> 00:11:19.090
I started to seek the face of Jesus in the Word,

00:11:19.129 --> 00:11:21.789
in the Bible. I started a Bible study. I won

00:11:21.789 --> 00:11:24.370
the whole halfway house to Jesus. So I became

00:11:24.370 --> 00:11:26.840
evangelist at that point. And I found out it

00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:29.799
was during that time that I got totally free

00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:33.059
from drugs. It was my relationship with God that

00:11:33.059 --> 00:11:35.899
destroyed the yoke that could never be destroyed

00:11:35.899 --> 00:11:38.419
before. Jesus is the only way out of addiction.

00:11:38.700 --> 00:11:40.120
He's the only one. He's the only one who has

00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:42.700
the power to do it. Amen. It's very powerful.

00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:44.720
You know, the Bible says the devil has come to

00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:47.159
kill, steal, and destroy our lives. But Jesus

00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:50.230
said, I came to give you life. and life abundantly.

00:11:50.789 --> 00:11:53.490
So I went to college to be a physical therapist,

00:11:54.029 --> 00:11:57.470
and I ruined that career because of my four DUIs,

00:11:57.470 --> 00:12:00.509
you know. And I was praying one night and a half

00:12:00.509 --> 00:12:03.470
way, and I said, God, everything I thought I

00:12:03.470 --> 00:12:05.309
was supposed to do with my life is not going

00:12:05.309 --> 00:12:07.330
to happen. Now, see, I knew what a prophet was.

00:12:07.350 --> 00:12:09.470
I don't recommend this prayer. But I said, God,

00:12:09.570 --> 00:12:12.610
would you send a prophet to me to tell me what

00:12:12.610 --> 00:12:15.230
I'm supposed to do with my life? Everyone wants

00:12:15.230 --> 00:12:17.370
to be told what to do. Yeah, everybody does.

00:12:17.370 --> 00:12:19.669
That would be nice, right? Yeah, he definitely

00:12:19.669 --> 00:12:20.950
made it a little bit easier for me. We were like

00:12:20.950 --> 00:12:24.830
a prophet to do it. At the same time, if somebody

00:12:24.830 --> 00:12:27.330
came up to you and said, God told you that you

00:12:27.330 --> 00:12:30.029
need to do this, would you him and haw? Would

00:12:30.029 --> 00:12:33.809
you say, hmm, is this guy really from God? And

00:12:33.809 --> 00:12:35.889
so at the same time, it seems like it'd be the

00:12:35.889 --> 00:12:37.769
easiest thing in the world to do it and also

00:12:37.769 --> 00:12:40.779
not. Yeah, definitely something to pray about.

00:12:40.980 --> 00:12:41.820
I'm going to tell you this part of the story,

00:12:41.940 --> 00:12:43.419
and that's actually exactly what you're saying,

00:12:43.740 --> 00:12:46.759
Josh, is what happened. So after so many months,

00:12:46.779 --> 00:12:49.179
you're allowed to get a job. So I have to catch

00:12:49.179 --> 00:12:51.399
a bus on the other side of town. I have a job

00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:54.519
set up at one more job interview, and I'm late

00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:56.879
for my bus. So I'm going down this road, and

00:12:56.879 --> 00:12:59.399
I decided I'm going to take this back alley to

00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:01.899
avoid traffic and just be able to stroll. So

00:13:01.899 --> 00:13:04.440
I'm flying down this back alley, and I see this

00:13:04.440 --> 00:13:06.820
African -American man coming from a far distance

00:13:06.820 --> 00:13:11.169
way off down. And as he draws closer to me, I

00:13:11.169 --> 00:13:13.230
don't want to talk to nobody. I just drop my

00:13:13.230 --> 00:13:15.629
head, and I pick up speed, and I start walking.

00:13:16.230 --> 00:13:19.490
And this man jumps right in front of me, puts

00:13:19.490 --> 00:13:22.350
his hand on my chest, and says these words. He

00:13:22.350 --> 00:13:24.850
said, the Lord Jesus Christ has sent me to you

00:13:24.850 --> 00:13:27.769
today to tell you you're going into the ministry,

00:13:28.429 --> 00:13:31.090
and that you'll lead thousands to Christ before

00:13:31.090 --> 00:13:34.340
Jesus returns. And that's why I even said this

00:13:34.340 --> 00:13:38.320
message says, because Jesus is about ready to

00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.419
return. This man went along his way, and guess

00:13:41.419 --> 00:13:43.960
what? I didn't believe anything he said. Never

00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:45.980
once did I think about becoming a preacher. I

00:13:45.980 --> 00:13:48.580
couldn't speak in front of public. I was never

00:13:48.580 --> 00:13:50.940
able to do it, you know? So never did that cross

00:13:50.940 --> 00:13:53.659
my mind. I cannot imagine this, because I know

00:13:53.659 --> 00:13:57.139
you now. Right. You guys have seen me preach,

00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:58.860
and I can preach in front of thousands, millions,

00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:02.350
no problem. because that shows you the power

00:14:02.350 --> 00:14:03.809
of the Holy Ghost. That's what's going to help

00:14:03.809 --> 00:14:05.730
the people tonight. That power is going to help

00:14:05.730 --> 00:14:09.070
everybody start to witness for Christ. So, I

00:14:09.070 --> 00:14:11.129
couldn't do it in my own human strength. So,

00:14:11.129 --> 00:14:12.730
anyways, two weeks ago, but I never even thought

00:14:12.730 --> 00:14:14.289
about this because I didn't think it was real.

00:14:14.950 --> 00:14:17.850
And somebody asked me. I've been praying. Yeah.

00:14:17.909 --> 00:14:21.570
I knew what a prophet was, but I guess just I

00:14:21.570 --> 00:14:23.509
didn't think it was going to be preaching. So,

00:14:23.549 --> 00:14:26.830
I feel like it was just off the radar. You know

00:14:26.830 --> 00:14:29.210
what I mean? For me, as far as faith was concerned.

00:14:29.639 --> 00:14:32.240
Two weeks go by, I get invited to a church service.

00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:34.720
I go to the service, the preacher, he's late

00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:37.120
coming, and now finally he makes it there and

00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:41.000
takes the microphone and I look up and I realize

00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:43.759
it's the same man from the back alley. And he

00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:46.080
turns and he looks at me and he says, I've been

00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:48.759
fasting and I've been praying all week. And the

00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:51.039
Lord told me, showed me in a vision that you

00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:53.259
were going to be here tonight and that you didn't

00:14:53.259 --> 00:14:55.620
believe anything that I told you on that back

00:14:55.620 --> 00:14:57.799
alley. He said, but I'm going to tell you again.

00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:00.840
You're going into the ministry. You'll lead thousands

00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:03.620
to Christ before Jesus returns. You'll have a

00:15:03.620 --> 00:15:06.259
ministry of miracles. You'll pray for the sick

00:15:06.259 --> 00:15:09.120
and the sick will get healed. And then he said

00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:11.799
this, God's going to send you places that nobody

00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:14.980
else wants to go to. And the last thing he said,

00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.799
which is very powerful, is you'll be in a full

00:15:17.799 --> 00:15:20.259
-time ministry in exactly six months from now.

00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:23.429
I've never preached once in my life. But two

00:15:23.429 --> 00:15:26.149
weeks after that, the first door opened for me

00:15:26.149 --> 00:15:28.230
to preach. I'm still living in a halfway house,

00:15:28.389 --> 00:15:30.289
and a pastor asked me to come preach at the church,

00:15:30.350 --> 00:15:33.110
which is a miracle in itself. And I gave my first

00:15:33.110 --> 00:15:35.610
altar call. Eleven people came up and gave their

00:15:35.610 --> 00:15:37.950
life to Christ, and it's all history from there.

00:15:38.070 --> 00:15:40.970
I never stopped preaching. And exactly in six

00:15:40.970 --> 00:15:43.840
months, I was already in full time. ministry,

00:15:43.940 --> 00:15:47.200
opened up my own church and was doing evangelistic

00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:51.539
services. So God did that in me so quickly, so

00:15:51.539 --> 00:15:54.620
quickly delivered me and trusted me into full

00:15:54.620 --> 00:15:58.100
-time ministry because time is short. So Daniel

00:15:58.100 --> 00:16:01.240
12 says, actually let me go on with the story

00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:04.059
a little bit. That prophet, I used to talk to

00:16:04.059 --> 00:16:07.039
him on the phone on a regular basis and I was

00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:08.480
getting ready to hang up with him one night and

00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:09.919
he said the Spirit of the Lord is coming to me

00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:13.049
and wanted me to tell you that before the month

00:16:13.049 --> 00:16:16.669
of December, your ministry is going to go international,

00:16:17.470 --> 00:16:21.149
and the probation system is not going to allow

00:16:21.149 --> 00:16:24.149
you to go. But God's going to work a miracle

00:16:24.149 --> 00:16:27.309
for you, and God's preparing a wife for you.

00:16:27.549 --> 00:16:29.669
That's what he said. That was, I believe it was

00:16:29.669 --> 00:16:32.889
nine months, or I think maybe even 11 months

00:16:32.889 --> 00:16:35.429
away from December. He said, but before the month

00:16:35.429 --> 00:16:37.610
of December, this was going to happen. So I knew

00:16:37.610 --> 00:16:40.519
when he spoke, put it in my heart and believe

00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:43.179
it so just like you said just like you said the

00:16:43.179 --> 00:16:44.779
first time within you know all this stuff's gonna

00:16:44.779 --> 00:16:47.559
happen and happen and uh the doors opened up

00:16:47.559 --> 00:16:50.460
to preach in central america honduras i went

00:16:50.460 --> 00:16:52.320
to the probation i was on probation at this time

00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:54.379
i'm a full -time pastor showing probation i think

00:16:54.379 --> 00:16:55.700
that might have been the only one in history

00:16:55.700 --> 00:16:59.500
but yeah god has a sense of humor he's powerful

00:16:59.500 --> 00:17:02.259
god and and he's he's funny he'll use anyone

00:17:02.259 --> 00:17:06.200
he'll use exactly he will use anyone he's available

00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:09.500
that's it just that simple available So I asked

00:17:09.500 --> 00:17:12.200
them, hey, I want to go preach in Honduras. They've

00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:14.859
asked me to come preach. And they said, absolutely

00:17:14.859 --> 00:17:17.759
not. You're not even allowed to leave the county,

00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:20.940
let alone the state, let alone the country. Just

00:17:20.940 --> 00:17:23.980
stopped it like that. Just like he said. Well,

00:17:24.140 --> 00:17:25.779
there was this lady that started coming to my

00:17:25.779 --> 00:17:28.480
church. She liked my preaching. I didn't know

00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:31.359
it at the time, but she was the sternographer

00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:34.980
for my judge. She worked with my judge. And when

00:17:34.980 --> 00:17:38.480
she found out that they said no, she made a special

00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:40.700
appointment with my judge. She said, listen,

00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:44.500
I attend Justin's church. God has really transformed

00:17:44.500 --> 00:17:47.210
his life around. You have to let him go on this

00:17:47.210 --> 00:17:49.730
mission strip. And just like he said, God would

00:17:49.730 --> 00:17:52.789
work a miracle. The same judge who was supposed

00:17:52.789 --> 00:17:55.730
to send me to prison who let me go, God did that

00:17:55.730 --> 00:17:57.990
first miracle. It's the same judge who now said,

00:17:58.089 --> 00:17:59.690
yes, we're going to let him go on this mission

00:17:59.690 --> 00:18:02.410
strip. And it happened in the month of November.

00:18:02.490 --> 00:18:04.490
He said, before the month of December, you will

00:18:04.490 --> 00:18:07.490
go. And God is preparing a wife for you. And

00:18:07.490 --> 00:18:09.329
that wife is sitting right next to me right now,

00:18:09.349 --> 00:18:12.309
who was my interpreter when I went to Honduras.

00:18:12.609 --> 00:18:15.710
And I say that because not only did build your

00:18:15.710 --> 00:18:19.430
faith on the awesome miracle power of God. But

00:18:19.430 --> 00:18:22.490
when you say yes to God, when you say yes to

00:18:22.490 --> 00:18:25.329
building His kingdom, miracles start to happen

00:18:25.329 --> 00:18:30.640
all around your life and through your life. I

00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:33.240
remember when he was about to come and everything

00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:35.400
seemed like he was not going to be able to make

00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:39.819
it but got opened away and the lady that was

00:18:39.819 --> 00:18:43.240
the judge's sternographer actually you met her

00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:46.720
through street evangelism you used to do street

00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:50.589
evangelism and somebody at the Christian outreach,

00:18:51.289 --> 00:18:54.170
saw him do a street evangelism, connected him

00:18:54.170 --> 00:18:57.309
with another prayer group, and that's how he

00:18:57.309 --> 00:19:00.430
met that lady, through doing the work of the

00:19:00.430 --> 00:19:04.049
Lord. So God did those divine connections, you

00:19:04.049 --> 00:19:07.069
know, and then we ended up meeting in Honduras,

00:19:07.109 --> 00:19:09.980
I was his translator. Then, in a couple of months,

00:19:10.019 --> 00:19:12.579
He proposed, and I moved up here, and we've been

00:19:12.579 --> 00:19:15.819
in full -time ministry since then. So, God has

00:19:15.819 --> 00:19:20.180
those mighty, it's like a Wi -Fi, like it's a

00:19:20.180 --> 00:19:22.339
spiritual Wi -Fi that He connects us with the

00:19:22.339 --> 00:19:24.380
right people at the right time. Social equity.

00:19:24.579 --> 00:19:27.900
Amen. Amen. Oh, my gosh, but that puts the, you

00:19:27.900 --> 00:19:30.440
know, that's how important it is, sowing seeds.

00:19:30.700 --> 00:19:32.799
Yeah, exactly. You never know. You never know.

00:19:33.019 --> 00:19:35.680
Yes, you never know. Seek first, the Bible says,

00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:38.779
seek first the advancement of my kingdom and

00:19:38.779 --> 00:19:41.380
I will add all things unto you. At that time,

00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:43.220
I was a wife and many other things, you know,

00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:45.420
that I was praying for. Oh, yeah. And actually,

00:19:45.579 --> 00:19:47.920
that lady ended up paying for part of our wedding.

00:19:48.099 --> 00:19:51.880
Wow. So, yeah, it was supernatural. Incredible.

00:19:52.460 --> 00:19:55.180
Yeah. Miracles after miracles. But let me get

00:19:55.180 --> 00:19:57.319
into this now a little bit. The Word of God.

00:19:57.880 --> 00:20:00.759
Start off that testimony. Daniel 12 says, and

00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:02.960
it's actually speaking of the rapture, the last

00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:05.519
days, right before Jesus comes back. In verse

00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:29.269
3 it says, Can I say something? Yeah, go ahead.

00:20:29.849 --> 00:20:33.470
The tagline in my emails is, we're here to make

00:20:33.470 --> 00:20:36.269
God a star, something they'll always remember.

00:20:36.869 --> 00:20:39.089
So, for you to say that, the star. Amen. I love

00:20:39.089 --> 00:20:42.150
it. Amen. And that's exactly what we want to

00:20:42.150 --> 00:20:46.450
do. We want to make the name of Jesus famous

00:20:46.450 --> 00:20:49.630
on the earth. So the question is, is how do we

00:20:49.630 --> 00:20:52.089
do these things? You know, and you have to look

00:20:52.089 --> 00:20:54.089
at the book of Acts. Now, the Holy Spirit gives

00:20:54.089 --> 00:20:56.569
us many ideas on how we can reach people. But

00:20:56.569 --> 00:20:59.009
today I just want to give some practical things

00:20:59.009 --> 00:21:01.970
on how we can reach people and get people hungry

00:21:01.970 --> 00:21:04.369
to do it. Get out your pens. Get out your pens.

00:21:05.210 --> 00:21:08.890
Exactly. See, Jesus said, go out into the highways

00:21:08.890 --> 00:21:12.589
and byways. and compel people to come into my

00:21:12.589 --> 00:21:15.329
father's house so that my father's house might

00:21:15.329 --> 00:21:18.710
be full. Jesus also said, you know the saying,

00:21:19.390 --> 00:21:22.569
four months between planting a seed and harvesting

00:21:22.569 --> 00:21:26.750
a seed. Then Jesus said, wake up and look around

00:21:26.750 --> 00:21:30.869
for the fields are already ripe for harvest.

00:21:31.180 --> 00:21:33.920
I'm going to tell you, the world is hungry for

00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:36.559
a Savior. It's actually not that hard to lead

00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:39.160
people to Jesus. We just need the skill, the

00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:41.140
knowing how to do it through the Word, and the

00:21:41.140 --> 00:21:43.579
power of the Holy Ghost flowing through us. And

00:21:43.579 --> 00:21:45.779
the willingness. And the willingness. Once again.

00:21:45.900 --> 00:21:47.920
When you're willing, but that's good. That's

00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:49.640
such an important thing. When you're willing,

00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:51.839
when you... See, that's how it started for me,

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:53.880
doing street evangelism. You know, when I got

00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:56.720
into ministry, I didn't have any preaching opportunities

00:21:56.720 --> 00:21:59.190
right away. You know, God opened things up. as

00:21:59.190 --> 00:22:02.869
time went on. But I decided, God, I'm about your

00:22:02.869 --> 00:22:05.930
kingdom. See, the first commandment, the best

00:22:05.930 --> 00:22:08.930
commandment of the Bible, it will fill all the

00:22:08.930 --> 00:22:11.390
commandments, the Bible says. Love God with all

00:22:11.390 --> 00:22:13.130
your heart, all your strength, all your mind,

00:22:13.210 --> 00:22:16.390
and love your neighbor as yourself. So I decided,

00:22:16.450 --> 00:22:18.450
listen, I'm going to go out on the streets. I'm

00:22:18.450 --> 00:22:21.630
going to lead people to Jesus, because every

00:22:21.630 --> 00:22:24.529
person that walks by you is a soul that will

00:22:24.529 --> 00:22:27.799
spend eternity in one of two places. And we have

00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:31.200
to get the compassion of God in our hearts. And

00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:34.619
one way to really encourage somebody is to realize

00:22:34.619 --> 00:22:38.299
that heaven is a real place, hell is a real place,

00:22:38.519 --> 00:22:42.000
and everybody will spend eternity in one of those

00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:45.240
two places. And we see from hell that it is...

00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:47.240
Jesus talked about hell more than he talked about

00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:50.259
heaven. It is more about hell than heaven in

00:22:50.259 --> 00:22:53.420
the teachings of Jesus. Why? Because Jesus was

00:22:53.420 --> 00:22:56.839
warning us of this terrible place where there's

00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:00.180
weeping, gnashing of teeth for all eternity,

00:23:00.579 --> 00:23:03.779
and the thing about it is, is Jesus never made

00:23:03.779 --> 00:23:06.700
hell for human beings. He didn't. The Bible says

00:23:06.700 --> 00:23:09.740
he doesn't get any pleasure out of seeing the

00:23:09.740 --> 00:23:12.660
wicked perish. The Bible says He set before His

00:23:12.660 --> 00:23:15.660
life and death blessings and cursings how He

00:23:15.660 --> 00:23:18.480
wishes we would choose life. See, everybody has

00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:21.480
to make a choice, but for me it all started with

00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:24.880
the compassion of Jesus for the lost and dying

00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:27.779
souls of this world, realizing that every person

00:23:27.779 --> 00:23:31.019
is going to spend eternity somewhere, and Jesus

00:23:31.019 --> 00:23:34.309
already did all He can do. He did it all. He

00:23:34.309 --> 00:23:38.190
laid down His life for God so loved the world

00:23:38.190 --> 00:23:41.950
that He gave everything, His only begotten Son,

00:23:42.470 --> 00:23:44.930
that whoever would believe on Him would not perish

00:23:44.930 --> 00:23:48.549
but have everlasting life. Jesus said, I am the

00:23:48.549 --> 00:23:52.049
way. I am the truth. I am the life. See, even

00:23:52.049 --> 00:23:54.390
the Pope, he's one on national television and

00:23:54.390 --> 00:23:56.509
said, the Pope, this is, you know, supposedly

00:23:56.509 --> 00:23:59.029
a Christian denomination. It doesn't matter if

00:23:59.029 --> 00:24:01.329
you follow Buddha. It doesn't matter if you follow

00:24:01.329 --> 00:24:03.730
Muhammad. It doesn't matter if you follow Jesus.

00:24:04.230 --> 00:24:07.210
God knows your heart. And ultimately, one day

00:24:07.210 --> 00:24:09.470
you'll make it to heaven. That's the biggest

00:24:09.470 --> 00:24:13.490
lie from the pits of hell. Jesus said, I hold

00:24:13.490 --> 00:24:16.450
the keys of death, hell, and the grave. So, when

00:24:16.450 --> 00:24:18.710
we have the willingness to go out, I always say

00:24:18.710 --> 00:24:22.650
this. It actually takes more faith not to believe

00:24:22.650 --> 00:24:25.609
that Jesus is the only way than it does to believe

00:24:25.609 --> 00:24:28.890
He is. And this is how the early church evangelized

00:24:28.890 --> 00:24:31.710
a lot. They evangelized through proof, and that's

00:24:31.710 --> 00:24:33.930
what I'm going to teach tonight. It is a fact

00:24:33.930 --> 00:24:36.289
that Jesus is the Son of God, and he's the only

00:24:36.289 --> 00:24:38.609
way to heaven. And how do we know that? It's

00:24:38.609 --> 00:24:40.630
the same way Paul evangelized. It's the same

00:24:40.630 --> 00:24:43.170
way that Philip the evangelist evangelized. Number

00:24:43.170 --> 00:24:46.170
one is through prophecy. Buddha never prophesied

00:24:46.170 --> 00:24:49.109
anything that came true. Nothing. Muhammad prophesied

00:24:49.109 --> 00:24:54.049
nothing that came true. No so -called God prophesied

00:24:54.049 --> 00:24:58.630
anything that came true. but 33 % of the Bible

00:24:58.630 --> 00:25:01.789
is things that were foretold by the prophets

00:25:01.789 --> 00:25:06.190
thousands of years ago, and they have all happened

00:25:06.190 --> 00:25:09.450
with complete and total accuracy except the soon

00:25:09.450 --> 00:25:12.029
return of Jesus Christ, and we know why he hasn't

00:25:12.029 --> 00:25:15.730
returned yet. One, through prophecy. Two, and

00:25:15.730 --> 00:25:17.750
you don't have to necessarily go through this,

00:25:17.829 --> 00:25:20.490
but it is good for people to know that the resurrection

00:25:20.490 --> 00:25:24.539
of Jesus, there's more proof of the resurrection

00:25:24.539 --> 00:25:27.160
of Jesus than there is of many famous people

00:25:27.160 --> 00:25:29.380
who have lived on the earth. I could take you

00:25:29.380 --> 00:25:31.359
to Buddha's grave. I could take you to this grave,

00:25:31.539 --> 00:25:33.299
Muhammad, all of them. They have a grave and

00:25:33.299 --> 00:25:37.000
you can go to it. But the most famous man that

00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:38.559
ever lived, and this is not my opinion, this

00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:40.700
is a fact, Jesus is the most famous man that

00:25:40.700 --> 00:25:43.500
ever lived. They have never found his grave after

00:25:43.500 --> 00:25:47.200
2 ,000 years because just like the Bible prophesied,

00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:51.299
that he loved us so much that he's seen us when

00:25:51.299 --> 00:25:54.079
we were in our sin and Christ still loved us

00:25:54.079 --> 00:25:56.680
and died for us and that he rose from the dead.

00:25:56.680 --> 00:25:59.940
He is alive today. He's in heaven waiting for

00:25:59.940 --> 00:26:03.019
us to do the Great Commission and get the gospel

00:26:03.019 --> 00:26:06.960
out. Prophecy, the resurrection of Jesus, the

00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:08.740
Word of God, which my wife's going to teach on

00:26:08.740 --> 00:26:11.779
a little bit tonight, on how to lead somebody

00:26:11.779 --> 00:26:13.440
to Jesus in one minute, because we want to be

00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:15.680
a little bit practical tonight. Because like

00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:17.559
I said, people want to do it, they just don't

00:26:17.559 --> 00:26:20.019
know how. So for me, it all started with willingness,

00:26:20.319 --> 00:26:22.359
Josh. I started going out on the street, not

00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:24.059
getting a lot of results. Getting a little bit,

00:26:24.059 --> 00:26:26.579
I started leading people to Jesus. People would

00:26:26.579 --> 00:26:28.700
think, what do you even say? What do you start

00:26:28.700 --> 00:26:31.470
with? Exactly, what do you start with? You know,

00:26:31.470 --> 00:26:34.269
I did the best I could, and God gave me results,

00:26:34.289 --> 00:26:36.630
but I got hungry for more. I knew, God, there's

00:26:36.630 --> 00:26:39.109
got to be something that works. And ultimately,

00:26:39.289 --> 00:26:41.089
it is the Word of God, which she's going to get

00:26:41.089 --> 00:26:43.809
into in a second. And it's just preaching the

00:26:43.809 --> 00:26:45.869
Word. That's what Peter did on the day of Pentecost.

00:26:45.930 --> 00:26:48.109
He preached the Word to them, and it pricked

00:26:48.109 --> 00:26:51.390
their hearts. You got to lead people to a decision

00:26:51.390 --> 00:26:53.430
with the Word of God, like she's going to get

00:26:53.430 --> 00:26:57.230
into. And one other thing I want to talk about

00:26:57.230 --> 00:26:59.809
is miracle signs and wonders, what the early

00:26:59.809 --> 00:27:02.799
church had. and we've seen great results with

00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:07.720
it. The Bible says many believed on Jesus, seeing

00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.900
the miracles that He did. Romans 15, Paul said,

00:27:12.660 --> 00:27:15.779
I have fully presented the Good News, the Gospel.

00:27:16.140 --> 00:27:20.819
Why? He said it this way. He said, the Gentiles

00:27:20.819 --> 00:27:24.819
are fully persuaded that Jesus is the Messiah

00:27:24.819 --> 00:27:28.730
through miracles, signs, and wonders. And through

00:27:28.730 --> 00:27:31.569
the power of the Holy Ghost, and in this way,

00:27:31.970 --> 00:27:33.930
I have fully presented the Good News of Christ.

00:27:34.109 --> 00:27:36.049
See, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Good News,

00:27:36.250 --> 00:27:39.049
it's a miracle, signs, and wonders. And the Church

00:27:39.049 --> 00:27:40.930
of America and around the world has to get back

00:27:40.930 --> 00:27:43.750
to that place where miracles are the regular.

00:27:44.250 --> 00:27:46.309
And that's the problem is people go through church

00:27:46.309 --> 00:27:48.910
for years and they don't see miracles and then

00:27:48.910 --> 00:27:51.700
their faith isn't alive. But when people start

00:27:51.700 --> 00:27:54.960
experiencing the power, we see blind eyes open.

00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:58.079
We see deaf ears open all the time. It's not

00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:01.960
like a random thing. It's a regular thing. And

00:28:01.960 --> 00:28:04.259
many believe on Jesus singing. Babe, I want you

00:28:04.259 --> 00:28:06.359
to tell them the story about the crusade we did.

00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:09.240
Let me just give you a little underline. I gave

00:28:09.240 --> 00:28:11.259
an altar call, like I always do, from preaching

00:28:11.259 --> 00:28:13.720
the Word, because the Word works. Sometimes you

00:28:13.720 --> 00:28:15.740
have to have a little extra for some people who've...

00:28:15.769 --> 00:28:18.369
been in religion for a long time or you know

00:28:18.369 --> 00:28:20.369
and just don't believe you know they don't like

00:28:20.369 --> 00:28:22.750
the Christian thing and so anyways the altar

00:28:22.750 --> 00:28:24.670
call was full I don't know how many there was

00:28:24.670 --> 00:28:27.549
50 to 100 people it was packed and then tell

00:28:27.549 --> 00:28:29.789
them what happened after that bit well usually

00:28:29.789 --> 00:28:31.829
whenever he does the altar call then he just

00:28:31.829 --> 00:28:34.890
prays for people right but he tells me the the

00:28:34.890 --> 00:28:36.809
holy spirit is leading me to do something else

00:28:36.809 --> 00:28:40.369
let's do another altar call so he does a second

00:28:40.369 --> 00:28:43.599
altar call call for salvation. He starts doing

00:28:43.599 --> 00:28:46.519
the altar call. But before doing the altar call,

00:28:46.539 --> 00:28:50.059
he said, I feel there's people here that are

00:28:50.059 --> 00:28:51.920
deaf and God's going to heal them right now.

00:28:52.220 --> 00:28:55.200
So there's this girls that came to the altar.

00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:58.400
and he prays for them. Two deaf girls. Two deaf

00:28:58.400 --> 00:29:01.619
girls. One of them immediately. She was only

00:29:01.619 --> 00:29:04.759
deaf in one ear and immediately the power of

00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:06.940
God hit her. She fell down on the floor. She

00:29:06.940 --> 00:29:10.400
was crying. She could hear for the first time.

00:29:10.940 --> 00:29:13.799
The other girl was totally healed as well. Both

00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:16.440
were immediate. And both are on the floor crying,

00:29:16.440 --> 00:29:19.059
right? So then he does the second altar call.

00:29:19.119 --> 00:29:21.900
Which I never do. Like honestly, since we've

00:29:21.900 --> 00:29:23.680
been in ministry, I don't even remember another

00:29:23.680 --> 00:29:25.859
time he has done that. And I'm like, he's doing

00:29:25.859 --> 00:29:28.740
a second altar call? But that's just me, right?

00:29:28.779 --> 00:29:31.700
Because I'm translating. So the second altar

00:29:31.700 --> 00:29:35.359
call, powerful. And the altar is packed. And

00:29:35.359 --> 00:29:37.740
there's this tall man in the back, like Josh.

00:29:37.819 --> 00:29:41.000
He's tall as Josh. 101 people are not told, Josh.

00:29:41.339 --> 00:29:47.440
So for us to see a tall man, he could pop up

00:29:47.440 --> 00:29:49.839
in the middle of the crowd. He's in the back.

00:29:50.099 --> 00:29:53.920
He was staring at us full of tattoos. Arms crossed.

00:29:54.220 --> 00:29:56.240
Like he didn't have a face that he was receiving

00:29:56.240 --> 00:30:00.359
the work. But as he does the altar call, he comes

00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:03.519
to the front, right? He gives his life to Jesus.

00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:09.029
He's holding the girls. hand. She was his daughter,

00:30:09.150 --> 00:30:11.210
one of the girls that got healed, that she was

00:30:11.210 --> 00:30:14.269
deaf. And they both come to the altar crying.

00:30:15.049 --> 00:30:17.569
And I remember Justin praying for him. He went

00:30:17.569 --> 00:30:20.920
out into the power of God on the floor. touched

00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:23.819
by the Holy Spirit and we have talked to the

00:30:23.819 --> 00:30:25.960
people from the church that was their first time

00:30:25.960 --> 00:30:29.400
coming to church and since then the whole family

00:30:29.400 --> 00:30:32.579
is saved they're all serving God in that church

00:30:32.579 --> 00:30:35.779
they're all together and their lives have been

00:30:35.779 --> 00:30:38.900
totally transformed and it all started with one

00:30:38.900 --> 00:30:44.259
miracle actually being obedient and hearing the

00:30:44.259 --> 00:30:46.200
voice of the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit

00:30:46.200 --> 00:30:49.440
told Justin like pray for deaf people then do

00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:52.160
a second altar call they got saved and their

00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:54.480
lives are totally transformed and the awesome

00:30:54.480 --> 00:30:56.339
thing is that they're serving God you know so

00:30:56.339 --> 00:30:58.799
we just give glory to the Lord and the second

00:30:58.799 --> 00:31:00.960
altar call was bigger than the first one yes

00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.000
because the people witnessed all the miracles

00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:06.359
you know and it really awakens people up amen

00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:09.640
amen I just want to say this like we've ministered

00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:12.859
tons of times in many places like the last four

00:31:12.859 --> 00:31:16.319
months we preached almost every night but that

00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:18.720
night probably it's in our hearts you know it's

00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:21.539
one of the biggest moves of God we've ever seen

00:31:21.539 --> 00:31:23.740
and it's just for being obedient to the voice

00:31:23.740 --> 00:31:26.619
of the Lord yeah and that works anywhere back

00:31:26.619 --> 00:31:28.599
when I used to do a lot of street evangelism

00:31:28.599 --> 00:31:32.019
I can remember going into Walmart and I seen

00:31:32.019 --> 00:31:33.839
a lady she just looked like she was in pain wasn't

00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:35.460
like God told me she was in pain she just looked

00:31:35.460 --> 00:31:38.569
like she was in pain And I went up to her and

00:31:38.569 --> 00:31:40.150
I preached to her like we're going to teach you

00:31:40.150 --> 00:31:43.410
guys to do, which is a very high success rate

00:31:43.410 --> 00:31:45.910
of working. And she said, no, no, I don't want

00:31:45.910 --> 00:31:48.829
to hear about God, you know? I said, well, you

00:31:48.829 --> 00:31:50.170
look like you're in a lot of pain. Where's your

00:31:50.170 --> 00:31:52.450
pain at, you know? And it's in my back. I said,

00:31:52.569 --> 00:31:53.910
what if God heals you right now? When did you

00:31:53.910 --> 00:31:56.210
do it then? There's another lady who looked pretty

00:31:56.210 --> 00:31:58.049
mean and rough. I didn't know how it was quick.

00:31:58.190 --> 00:31:59.849
I said, I'm going to pray for you. I prayed for

00:31:59.849 --> 00:32:01.910
her. Immediately, all of her back pain left.

00:32:01.910 --> 00:32:04.009
She said, one out of 10, there was a level of

00:32:04.009 --> 00:32:07.000
10 back pain. So full. pain, you know? Immediately

00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:09.400
she bends over before she even reaches back up.

00:32:09.460 --> 00:32:11.759
Tears are streaming down her eyes and she gives

00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:14.420
her life to Christ. The woman whose heart was

00:32:14.420 --> 00:32:18.079
so hardened towards God was immediately opened

00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:21.519
up to God. So we have to, as the body of Christ,

00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:24.559
we have to believe for the power of God to be

00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:27.839
manifested. And early on in my ministry, I didn't

00:32:27.839 --> 00:32:29.660
see results right away. I prayed for people in

00:32:29.660 --> 00:32:31.930
there to get healed. But I kept going because

00:32:31.930 --> 00:32:34.970
I knew that it was the master key of the gospel.

00:32:35.250 --> 00:32:38.109
Jesus said, go into all the world. See, people

00:32:38.109 --> 00:32:40.509
already have religion. Go into all the world.

00:32:40.589 --> 00:32:42.829
They've already had something they believe and

00:32:42.829 --> 00:32:46.529
preach the good news to them. And these signs.

00:32:46.829 --> 00:32:49.430
will follow them who believe. They'll lay their

00:32:49.430 --> 00:32:51.650
hands on the sick, the sick will recover. They

00:32:51.650 --> 00:32:54.170
will cast out demons. Usually not services that

00:32:54.170 --> 00:32:56.250
go by when we don't see demons cast out of people.

00:32:56.750 --> 00:33:00.269
And it changes people and it makes God, then

00:33:00.269 --> 00:33:02.670
you start to really realize God is in your midst

00:33:02.670 --> 00:33:05.089
all the time. He's here right now, you know?

00:33:05.390 --> 00:33:08.730
And he's a powerful God. So miracles are important.

00:33:08.910 --> 00:33:10.970
It's something we should be hungry for. And I

00:33:10.970 --> 00:33:12.349
got really hungry for it at the beginning of

00:33:12.349 --> 00:33:13.769
my ministry because I didn't see the results

00:33:13.769 --> 00:33:15.710
right away. Same thing happened in the great

00:33:15.710 --> 00:33:18.269
evangelist T .L. Osborne. He was preaching in,

00:33:18.309 --> 00:33:22.349
I believe it was India. And even in their religion,

00:33:22.369 --> 00:33:25.349
they believe in Jesus. He was a prophet. They

00:33:25.349 --> 00:33:27.569
just cut it off where they say he's the son of

00:33:27.569 --> 00:33:29.490
God. And they would listen to his preaching,

00:33:29.710 --> 00:33:32.549
but he wasn't getting results. He got hungry.

00:33:32.589 --> 00:33:36.079
He started fasting, praying God. You've got to

00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:38.079
give me something that's going to reach these

00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:42.819
people." And Jesus actually visited him and released

00:33:42.819 --> 00:33:45.059
the power of God to him and he went back to India.

00:33:46.099 --> 00:33:48.599
We preach in Honduras and we hear stories of

00:33:48.599 --> 00:33:50.480
T .L. Osborne coming and the government coming

00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:53.900
and the multitudes coming because God gave him

00:33:53.900 --> 00:33:56.960
something that was able to reach the people beyond

00:33:56.960 --> 00:33:59.200
the word. Now the word is the most powerful thing,

00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:01.269
you know. It's what pricks the heart. There's

00:34:01.269 --> 00:34:03.990
something, when you release the Word, the Holy

00:34:03.990 --> 00:34:06.670
Ghost moves. It's a miracle in itself, really,

00:34:06.910 --> 00:34:08.429
because people just think it's telling somebody

00:34:08.429 --> 00:34:11.789
the Word. It's just like a dry thing. It's not.

00:34:11.869 --> 00:34:14.690
It is a powerful thing. I always encourage people,

00:34:14.730 --> 00:34:17.510
go out and approach people. Your flesh doesn't

00:34:17.510 --> 00:34:19.769
want to do it, trust me. The Bible says your

00:34:19.769 --> 00:34:22.650
flesh is at war with your spirit, and your spirit

00:34:22.650 --> 00:34:25.550
is at war with your flesh to keep you from doing

00:34:25.550 --> 00:34:27.409
the things you really want to do. See, there's

00:34:27.409 --> 00:34:30.500
things as believers, we really want to do, and

00:34:30.500 --> 00:34:33.539
the flesh gets in the way. And so I always tell

00:34:33.539 --> 00:34:35.599
people, go up to somebody with a teardrop tattoo,

00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:37.980
the biggest looking guy, and start with him.

00:34:38.119 --> 00:34:41.039
If you can get to him, you can talk to anybody.

00:34:41.420 --> 00:34:44.820
That reminds me of what Todd said in his, look

00:34:44.820 --> 00:34:48.880
for the person in the family that can change.

00:34:49.190 --> 00:34:52.809
Everyone else after them in sales you can call

00:34:52.809 --> 00:34:55.909
it selling to the monkey the one is more agreeable

00:34:55.909 --> 00:34:57.710
So if you're sitting down with a husband and

00:34:57.710 --> 00:34:59.969
wife and you're talking and you're using all

00:34:59.969 --> 00:35:01.969
that the body language and the wife is doing

00:35:01.969 --> 00:35:05.969
this You talk to her. She's gonna convince him.

00:35:05.969 --> 00:35:07.929
Yeah, and if he's the one that's enthralled with

00:35:07.929 --> 00:35:10.050
what you're saying Then you talk to him and you're

00:35:10.050 --> 00:35:13.349
selling him put your foot in he will lead the

00:35:13.349 --> 00:35:16.250
other one. And so you focus on the one that's

00:35:16.250 --> 00:35:18.610
more agreeable and let God work through that

00:35:18.610 --> 00:35:21.389
person closer to everybody else in his family

00:35:21.389 --> 00:35:24.889
or her family. That's smart. And the Holy Ghost

00:35:24.889 --> 00:35:26.809
gives us great ideas like that because that's

00:35:26.809 --> 00:35:28.929
a promise of the Bible that, you know, I said

00:35:28.929 --> 00:35:30.690
in the book of Acts all the time, you and your

00:35:30.690 --> 00:35:33.210
whole household will be saved. So sometimes you

00:35:33.210 --> 00:35:35.710
got to pinpoint a certain person first, you know.

00:35:36.819 --> 00:35:39.139
What we're about to teach the last part is we

00:35:39.139 --> 00:35:41.980
do this in a multitude of people, too. Like,

00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:43.500
I'll be out in the streets. I won't always go

00:35:43.500 --> 00:35:45.059
up to one person. Sometimes we'll go up to five

00:35:45.059 --> 00:35:47.519
people at a time, get a whole group together,

00:35:47.820 --> 00:35:49.559
and hit them with what we call the soul -witting

00:35:49.559 --> 00:35:52.659
script. Quickly, though, before she teaches on

00:35:52.659 --> 00:35:54.420
that, I'm just going to give an altar call to

00:35:54.420 --> 00:35:56.679
the other people that are listening. You know,

00:35:56.679 --> 00:35:58.639
we're going to finish this teaching on how to

00:35:58.639 --> 00:36:00.280
win souls, but there could be people listening

00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:02.639
right now that even their own soul isn't won.

00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:05.900
The Bible says, what does it profit a man if

00:36:05.900 --> 00:36:10.039
he gains the whole world but loses his soul?

00:36:11.059 --> 00:36:12.619
And there could be people that's listening that

00:36:12.619 --> 00:36:14.000
they've gone through their whole life and they've

00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:16.179
never given their life to Jesus. I want to just

00:36:16.179 --> 00:36:19.360
tell you what the Bible says. Today is the day

00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:22.559
of salvation. If there's ever a time in history

00:36:22.559 --> 00:36:25.320
where you do not want to put off being right

00:36:25.320 --> 00:36:27.980
with God, it's in the time we're living in right

00:36:27.980 --> 00:36:30.940
now. If Jesus is coming back at 12 o 'clock,

00:36:31.139 --> 00:36:36.539
it's 11 59 59 right now. The disciple said, Jesus,

00:36:36.579 --> 00:36:39.139
how will we know when you're going to return?

00:36:39.320 --> 00:36:40.980
And he said many things, but he said something

00:36:40.980 --> 00:36:44.739
very specific. He said, when you see the fig

00:36:44.739 --> 00:36:48.139
tree, but again, he was talking about Israel.

00:36:48.559 --> 00:36:52.480
The generation that sees it with their eyes will

00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:56.519
not come to pass before I return." So, Israel

00:36:56.519 --> 00:36:59.300
was not a nation, and people never thought it

00:36:59.300 --> 00:37:01.039
would be a nation again, but just like Jesus

00:37:01.039 --> 00:37:03.159
said, the Bible also prophesied about Israel.

00:37:03.400 --> 00:37:07.039
Could a nation be born again in one day's time?

00:37:07.360 --> 00:37:11.019
So, in the 1940s, the devil raised up a man named

00:37:11.019 --> 00:37:13.079
Adolf Hitler. See, that's an important thing

00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:16.940
too, a man. The devil needs a man, and God needs

00:37:16.940 --> 00:37:20.360
a man or a woman to do his work. None of them

00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:22.280
are just working on their own. They're working

00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:24.820
through humans. And he raised up a man to wipe

00:37:24.820 --> 00:37:27.260
off the Jewish population off the earth, to stop

00:37:27.260 --> 00:37:30.500
that prophecy from being fulfilled. But the devil's

00:37:30.500 --> 00:37:33.000
a failure, and just like the Bible prophesied,

00:37:33.059 --> 00:37:38.639
in one day's time, in 1948, Israel became a nation

00:37:38.639 --> 00:37:42.739
again. And Jesus said, when you see this happen,

00:37:43.260 --> 00:37:46.519
the generation that sees it with their eyes will

00:37:46.519 --> 00:37:50.280
not come to pass before I return. If you do the

00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:54.679
math on what 1948 was, we're coming to that very

00:37:54.679 --> 00:37:58.539
end right now. The last person to be able to

00:37:58.539 --> 00:38:00.139
live a life, let's just say a generation is 100

00:38:00.139 --> 00:38:02.519
years. You know, people not fully sure on that

00:38:02.519 --> 00:38:05.820
part, whether it's 80, 70, or 100. Still, there's

00:38:05.820 --> 00:38:08.500
not much time left. Tick -tock. Tick -tock. And

00:38:08.500 --> 00:38:10.460
it's up to us. And if you're listening to now

00:38:10.460 --> 00:38:12.760
and you've never given your life to Christ, I

00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:17.599
urge you to do it now. Paul said, I work hard

00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:21.619
to persuade men knowing the soon terror of the

00:38:21.619 --> 00:38:24.519
Lord. And Jesus does not want you to experience

00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:26.360
that terror. And that's why we're preaching to

00:38:26.360 --> 00:38:28.019
you tonight. That's why they have this podcast,

00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:30.980
because we love you and we love people like Jesus

00:38:30.980 --> 00:38:33.340
loves you. Two, maybe you're the same now and

00:38:33.340 --> 00:38:35.880
you once gave your life to Christ, but you've

00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:37.679
fallen away from Him. You're just not living

00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:40.440
for Him as you should. I got good news for you,

00:38:40.519 --> 00:38:44.739
too. Jesus leaves the 99 to get the one who has

00:38:44.739 --> 00:38:47.860
fallen away. You can come back to Him tonight

00:38:47.860 --> 00:38:50.199
and determine you're going to live for Him until

00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:53.059
you hear that trumpet sound, which is called

00:38:53.059 --> 00:38:55.659
the rapture of the church. It is a real event

00:38:55.659 --> 00:38:57.840
that's going to happen, and Jesus is going to

00:38:57.840 --> 00:38:59.920
come get us soon, and we're going to catch away

00:38:59.920 --> 00:39:02.269
out of this world into heaven. and I'm looking

00:39:02.269 --> 00:39:04.230
forward to it. So if you fall into any of those

00:39:04.230 --> 00:39:06.010
categories, I want you to pray with me right

00:39:06.010 --> 00:39:08.829
now. The Bible says if you believe in your heart

00:39:08.829 --> 00:39:12.050
that Jesus is the Messiah and that he rose from

00:39:12.050 --> 00:39:15.150
the dead and you confess it with your mouth,

00:39:15.389 --> 00:39:18.070
you will be saved. This isn't some religious

00:39:18.070 --> 00:39:22.119
prayer. Jesus is with you right now. Don't let

00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:25.920
this moment pass you by, for God so loved you

00:39:25.920 --> 00:39:29.340
that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever

00:39:29.340 --> 00:39:32.079
would believe on Him would not perish. So pray

00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:34.019
this with me right now. Say it from your heart.

00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:36.579
Say it out of your mouth loud to God, and God's

00:39:36.579 --> 00:39:38.119
going to meet you right now in your living room,

00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:39.860
right in your car, right in your office, wherever

00:39:39.860 --> 00:39:43.619
you're at. Say, Lord Jesus Christ, I call on

00:39:43.619 --> 00:39:49.360
you today. Forgive me of all my sins. Cleanse

00:39:49.360 --> 00:39:53.239
me of all unrighteousness. Jesus, I believe you're

00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:56.860
the only way to heaven. I believe you rose from

00:39:56.860 --> 00:40:01.260
the dead. Make me new right now. And from this

00:40:01.260 --> 00:40:05.260
day forward, God, I will only follow you. God,

00:40:05.380 --> 00:40:08.679
you are my father. Heaven is my home. And I will

00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:11.719
not turn back in Jesus' name. If you pray that,

00:40:11.900 --> 00:40:14.380
I'm telling you, your sins are forgiven. Heaven

00:40:14.380 --> 00:40:16.800
is your home. Going into the last part right

00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:20.139
now. Tell them, babe. How to lead somebody to

00:40:20.139 --> 00:40:23.199
Christ in a minute's time? Well, we learned this

00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:25.760
strategy last summer. We went to a summer school

00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:29.179
of evangelism in the River Tampa Bay. And I remember

00:40:29.179 --> 00:40:31.300
that they would say, you just, you can lead somebody

00:40:31.300 --> 00:40:33.619
to the Lord in a minute. And I'm like, how is

00:40:33.619 --> 00:40:36.860
that possible? You know, like it seems impossible,

00:40:36.900 --> 00:40:39.880
but with God, all things are possible. So God

00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:42.460
gave this, this is just a strategy. If somebody's

00:40:42.460 --> 00:40:44.320
listening and you're listening to this, this

00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:48.010
is just a strategy. It's not written down in

00:40:48.010 --> 00:40:50.829
rocks. You can let the Holy Spirit lead you on

00:40:50.829 --> 00:40:53.309
how to do it, but this is how we do it. First

00:40:53.309 --> 00:40:56.070
of all, as we were all talking, we have to be

00:40:56.070 --> 00:40:59.449
willing to go. And the Holy Spirit is the one

00:40:59.449 --> 00:41:02.269
that touches people's hearts. So you have to

00:41:02.269 --> 00:41:05.030
be full of the Holy Spirit, pray it out, and

00:41:05.030 --> 00:41:07.929
then you just go. Because God doesn't sit with

00:41:07.929 --> 00:41:12.019
the sitters. He goes with the goers. So we need

00:41:12.019 --> 00:41:14.139
to go. It's not gonna happen in your couch. It's

00:41:14.139 --> 00:41:17.340
not gonna happen watching TV. You have to go

00:41:17.340 --> 00:41:21.539
to the street. So you just go to one person.

00:41:21.739 --> 00:41:25.019
We recommend that you always go in couples. The

00:41:25.019 --> 00:41:27.880
Bible says that Jesus sent the disciples in couples,

00:41:28.239 --> 00:41:30.920
in twos, you know? So there should be always

00:41:30.920 --> 00:41:33.440
somebody with you, just... It's good to have

00:41:33.440 --> 00:41:35.179
somebody with you. I used to go alone all the

00:41:35.179 --> 00:41:37.539
time. Just for wisdom, you know? Yeah, just for

00:41:37.539 --> 00:41:41.559
wisdom. It's an advice that we give, right? So

00:41:41.559 --> 00:41:44.780
the first thing, this is called the Gospel Soul

00:41:44.780 --> 00:41:47.900
Winning Script. It's in all the languages. It's

00:41:47.900 --> 00:41:51.139
online. You can look it up or we can post it

00:41:51.139 --> 00:41:53.219
whenever... We can put it on the notes and the

00:41:53.219 --> 00:41:56.610
description. And the first thing, you ask a question.

00:41:57.429 --> 00:42:00.510
Has anyone ever told you that God loves you and

00:42:00.510 --> 00:42:03.630
that he has a wonderful plan for your life? You

00:42:03.630 --> 00:42:06.050
just approach people. You don't ask them if they

00:42:06.050 --> 00:42:09.289
have a minute. You are compelling people. There's

00:42:09.289 --> 00:42:12.010
an urgency. You know, American people, if you

00:42:12.010 --> 00:42:13.869
ask them, hey, do you have a minute? People are

00:42:13.869 --> 00:42:16.610
gonna say no. So you just go straight. All right,

00:42:16.630 --> 00:42:18.769
can I pray for you? No, and people are gonna

00:42:18.769 --> 00:42:21.449
say no. Just go right up to them. So you ask

00:42:21.449 --> 00:42:24.809
them something. It's a yes or no. Question has

00:42:24.809 --> 00:42:26.909
anyone ever told you that God loves you and that

00:42:26.909 --> 00:42:29.760
he has a wonderful plan for your life? So you

00:42:29.760 --> 00:42:32.719
say yes, no, nobody has told me or most people

00:42:32.719 --> 00:42:35.000
say yes. And then you go quickly to the second

00:42:35.000 --> 00:42:37.579
question because remember, people don't have

00:42:37.579 --> 00:42:39.940
time. This is not something that they want to

00:42:39.940 --> 00:42:42.360
be all day long. You got a minute. You have a

00:42:42.360 --> 00:42:45.739
minute to do this. I have a real quick but important

00:42:45.739 --> 00:42:48.780
question to ask you. If you were to die this

00:42:48.780 --> 00:42:52.219
very second, do you know for sure beyond a shadow

00:42:52.219 --> 00:42:55.440
of a doubt that you would go to heaven? Some

00:42:55.440 --> 00:42:58.079
people would say, yes, because I've been a good

00:42:58.079 --> 00:43:01.679
person. Other people would say, no, I'm not sure.

00:43:02.059 --> 00:43:05.159
And that's whenever you tell them, we recommend

00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:08.219
you to get this script and you just read the

00:43:08.219 --> 00:43:11.360
script. And you say. Depending on what they answer

00:43:11.360 --> 00:43:14.719
you say, let me quickly share with you what the

00:43:14.719 --> 00:43:18.739
holy Bible reads We are teaching we're preaching

00:43:18.739 --> 00:43:22.239
the word because the word always works as I'm

00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:24.880
telling you this I remember going out in Tampa

00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:28.239
I was in Walmart and I was doing my training

00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:30.420
with the soul winning script we go to this couple

00:43:30.420 --> 00:43:33.119
and I did the same thing I'm like, has anybody

00:43:33.119 --> 00:43:34.659
told you that God loves you and he has a great

00:43:34.659 --> 00:43:37.340
plan for your life? And the husband said, no,

00:43:37.420 --> 00:43:39.679
we are Catholics and we don't want to hear about

00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:42.719
it. So you keep going with the script. That's

00:43:42.719 --> 00:43:45.440
what you do. So then I'm like, let me ask you

00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:48.679
a quick question. If you were going to die today,

00:43:48.880 --> 00:43:50.559
do you know without a shadow of a doubt if you

00:43:50.559 --> 00:43:53.480
would go to heaven? And they said, no. They didn't

00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:55.199
know. They weren't sure if they were going to

00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:57.519
go to heaven. And then I went with the script.

00:43:57.619 --> 00:43:59.739
Let me quickly share with you what the Holy Bible

00:43:59.739 --> 00:44:03.519
says. It says that we have all sinned and come

00:44:03.519 --> 00:44:06.360
short of the glory of God and for the wages of

00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:09.780
sin is death. But the gift of God is eternal

00:44:09.780 --> 00:44:12.800
life through Jesus Christ our Lord. And the Bible

00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:16.019
also says that whosoever calls on the name of

00:44:16.019 --> 00:44:18.699
the Lord shall be saved. And you're a whosoever,

00:44:18.820 --> 00:44:20.860
right? That's what I told them. And they said,

00:44:21.219 --> 00:44:24.079
yes. And then we kept going with the script.

00:44:24.539 --> 00:44:26.800
And then I'm like, just repeat after me. Dear

00:44:26.800 --> 00:44:29.960
Lord Jesus. And they said, dear Lord Jesus. As

00:44:29.960 --> 00:44:34.559
they said, dear Lord Jesus. The wife starts crying

00:44:34.559 --> 00:44:38.679
like a baby. Dear Lord Jesus, come into my heart.

00:44:39.019 --> 00:44:42.550
Forgive me of my sins. I repent of my sins today.

00:44:43.110 --> 00:44:46.730
I ask to be away from my old life. My sins are

00:44:46.730 --> 00:44:49.170
forgiven. Write my name in the Lamb's Book of

00:44:49.170 --> 00:44:52.849
Life. From today, I'm a new person. And they

00:44:52.849 --> 00:44:55.590
prayed with me. Both of them prayed with me,

00:44:55.630 --> 00:44:58.889
the prayer of salvation. Then as we are praying,

00:44:59.050 --> 00:45:01.389
the Holy Spirit showed me like a vision of her.

00:45:01.710 --> 00:45:04.309
She had problems to sleep. She was suffering

00:45:04.309 --> 00:45:07.469
of anxiety. So I started praying for her and

00:45:07.469 --> 00:45:10.030
she was totally delivered. She was totally free.

00:45:10.280 --> 00:45:13.199
And they asked me for the information of the

00:45:13.199 --> 00:45:15.019
church, and they said they were going to start

00:45:15.019 --> 00:45:17.559
going to the church. Three scriptures. Three

00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:19.739
scriptures. Tell them real quickly again, three

00:45:19.739 --> 00:45:22.079
scriptures. The three scriptures. Everybody has

00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:24.239
sinned. Everybody has sinned and has fallen short

00:45:24.239 --> 00:45:26.840
of the glory of God. And the wages of sin is

00:45:26.840 --> 00:45:29.840
eternal death. But then it says, but the Bible

00:45:29.840 --> 00:45:33.719
also says that the gift of God is eternal life

00:45:33.719 --> 00:45:36.559
through Jesus Christ our Lord. And whosoever

00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:39.260
calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:42.519
are the word. Everything that I said is the word

00:45:42.519 --> 00:45:47.239
and the word always works. So we just want to

00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:50.039
encourage you. This is a strategy. As I said,

00:45:50.059 --> 00:45:52.380
they're going to write it on the description.

00:45:52.920 --> 00:45:55.320
It's a way that you can win somebody to the Lord.

00:45:55.659 --> 00:45:58.159
And maybe you might be asking, what if I cannot

00:45:58.159 --> 00:46:00.420
take them to church? What if I cannot? The Bible

00:46:00.420 --> 00:46:04.440
says that somebody plants the seed, another person

00:46:04.440 --> 00:46:07.019
waters the seed, and probably another person's

00:46:07.019 --> 00:46:09.400
going to see the fruit of that seed that you

00:46:09.400 --> 00:46:10.699
planted. But definitely invite them, though.

00:46:10.800 --> 00:46:13.059
Invite them to church. But you need to go. Yes,

00:46:13.619 --> 00:46:15.980
you need to go and you need to start going and

00:46:15.980 --> 00:46:18.219
letting the Holy Spirit direct you, because the

00:46:18.219 --> 00:46:21.539
time is now. And as my husband said, today is

00:46:21.539 --> 00:46:24.739
the day of salvation. Amen. We've seen tons of

00:46:24.739 --> 00:46:26.880
people. This thing works. I've been doing it

00:46:26.880 --> 00:46:29.199
for years before we went there. It works. Last

00:46:29.199 --> 00:46:31.679
time I said, do the work of an evangelist and

00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:33.739
make foolproof of your ministry in Jesus. Amen.

00:46:34.099 --> 00:46:37.800
Amen. I have listened to a YouTuber. He does

00:46:37.800 --> 00:46:39.500
more than YouTuber. His name is Ray Comfort.

00:46:39.659 --> 00:46:41.860
Oh, yeah, right. And he has Church of Living

00:46:41.860 --> 00:46:45.039
Waters. And his evangelism is almost spot on

00:46:45.039 --> 00:46:46.960
to that. He has a few other qualifying things

00:46:46.960 --> 00:46:49.199
and gets them going. He modifies. It makes it

00:46:49.199 --> 00:46:52.239
his own. But he starts off with that. Do you

00:46:52.239 --> 00:46:54.199
know where you're going to go? Yes. Yeah. And

00:46:54.199 --> 00:46:55.260
so when you said that, I was like, hey, that

00:46:55.260 --> 00:47:02.360
sounds very familiar. And he evangelizes. testimonies

00:47:02.360 --> 00:47:04.179
he's got lots of people that have been changed

00:47:04.179 --> 00:47:06.260
yeah by the power of jesus in their life when

00:47:06.260 --> 00:47:08.179
they when they realize like when they get all

00:47:08.179 --> 00:47:09.659
the pieces laid in front of them they can see

00:47:09.659 --> 00:47:11.639
all the information and they can finally make

00:47:11.639 --> 00:47:14.059
an informed decision sure right i've watched

00:47:14.059 --> 00:47:16.219
his videos as well yeah it's it's it makes total

00:47:16.219 --> 00:47:18.380
sense yeah yeah absolutely so when you said that

00:47:18.380 --> 00:47:19.920
i was like oh this is so incredible you know

00:47:19.920 --> 00:47:22.000
yeah that's exactly what this other guy does

00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:24.840
yeah that's fun yeah yeah he what he does works

00:47:24.840 --> 00:47:28.099
well he does it longer i think he tells him ahead

00:47:28.099 --> 00:47:30.699
of time though you know take a little time but

00:47:30.730 --> 00:47:34.190
But you just have to trust the Holy Spirit. It

00:47:34.190 --> 00:47:37.369
works. Because it does work. In the last testimony

00:47:37.369 --> 00:47:39.630
about that, one of the girls that was part of

00:47:39.630 --> 00:47:42.030
the School of Evangelism, she said that somebody

00:47:42.030 --> 00:47:44.090
approached to her, because in Tampa this is common.

00:47:44.250 --> 00:47:47.289
This church goes out every day with tons of people

00:47:47.289 --> 00:47:50.369
to do evangelism. She did the script. She said

00:47:50.369 --> 00:47:52.190
that at the moment, I'm like, I don't care. I'm

00:47:52.190 --> 00:47:54.329
just going to do it for this lady to leave me

00:47:54.329 --> 00:47:57.739
alone. But something was planted there. Months

00:47:57.739 --> 00:48:01.159
went by. She was on drugs. She was addicted to

00:48:01.159 --> 00:48:03.980
heroin. She was addicted to meth. She was about

00:48:03.980 --> 00:48:06.760
to go to jail. She was in her car and she said,

00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:10.260
Lord, I cannot do this anymore. She said that

00:48:10.260 --> 00:48:13.239
she remembered the prayer that she did with this

00:48:13.239 --> 00:48:15.800
lady that was the script. The power of the Holy

00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:18.500
Spirit came upon her. She said that day she was

00:48:18.500 --> 00:48:21.199
free from addiction, from heroin, from meth.

00:48:21.659 --> 00:48:24.920
She found the church, the river church, and she

00:48:24.920 --> 00:48:27.000
started assisting to the church, congregating

00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:29.760
there. She's in Bible school, and now she's in

00:48:29.760 --> 00:48:33.679
full -time ministry. And she says, it started

00:48:33.679 --> 00:48:35.699
with a script. I didn't understand what I was

00:48:35.699 --> 00:48:37.619
saying. I didn't understand what I was doing,

00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:39.739
but the Holy Spirit knows your heart. And He's

00:48:39.739 --> 00:48:42.360
the one that leads you into salvation. Praise

00:48:42.360 --> 00:48:45.340
God. We praise the Lord for that. Yeah. I was

00:48:45.340 --> 00:48:47.699
wondering if we can end this if you can end it

00:48:47.699 --> 00:48:50.360
with a blessing and if you could translate into

00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:53.320
Spanish as you know for the start of our new

00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:56.559
our new season to just include another group

00:48:56.559 --> 00:48:58.400
of people that we are unable to reach because

00:48:58.400 --> 00:49:00.800
you know we don't speak Spanish and so I'd love

00:49:00.800 --> 00:49:03.039
that I'd love to have a blessing if you could

00:49:03.039 --> 00:49:05.059
just speak a blessing and if you could repeat

00:49:05.059 --> 00:49:06.639
that blessing I think that would be a wonderful

00:49:06.639 --> 00:49:10.900
thing. Well thanks again for having us on and

00:49:10.900 --> 00:49:16.579
yeah amen let's pray. Father, we just thank you

00:49:16.579 --> 00:49:22.159
for this wonderful evening. Don't let this word

00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:28.030
come back void. but transform these people into

00:49:28.030 --> 00:49:33.690
mighty soul winners. And we bless this ministry

00:49:33.690 --> 00:49:38.510
in Jesus' name. Let it bear double the fruit

00:49:38.510 --> 00:49:44.409
this year than it did last year. For the glory

00:49:44.409 --> 00:49:49.250
of your name and the increase of your kingdom.

00:49:49.590 --> 00:49:51.789
And every person listening at the sound of my

00:49:51.789 --> 00:49:58.159
voice, God is with you right now. And I call

00:49:58.159 --> 00:50:03.579
you blessed in Jesus' name. And may the days

00:50:03.579 --> 00:50:08.599
ahead of you be the greatest days of your life.

00:50:08.699 --> 00:50:13.000
Because the Bible says we go from glory to glory,

00:50:13.199 --> 00:50:17.420
victory to victory, strength to strength. So

00:50:17.420 --> 00:50:22.800
God bless you in Jesus' mighty name. I love you

00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:26.719

I love it. Thank you guys. Thank you so much.

00:50:32.039 --> 00:50:34.659
I can feel the Holy Spirit. I got the tears going

00:50:34.659 --> 00:50:37.880
and stuff and it was just a delight to have you

00:50:37.880 --> 00:50:40.579

00:50:41.000 --> 00:50:43.000

do what we want. That's good. You guys can. That's

00:50:45.219 --> 00:50:48.320
good. And whatever the Holy Spirit wants for

00:50:48.320 --> 00:50:51.369
sure. Amen. All right. And then if this has been

00:50:51.369 --> 00:50:53.869
a blessing to you, we ask that you pass it along

00:50:53.869 --> 00:50:56.489
to a friend or family member that the Holy Spirit

00:50:56.489 --> 00:50:58.869
put on your heart. And we hope that you were

00:50:58.869 --> 00:51:02.150

00:51:11.099 --> 00:51:14.179
we got a new studio that we're sitting in these

00:51:24.000 --> 00:51:26.860
God has blessed us with and it's just I can't

00:51:26.860 --> 00:51:31.239
wait to see what He does this next year Guys,

00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:33.880
you're believing for video stuff this year? Yes.

00:51:34.239 --> 00:51:38.239
I have people that the Lord keeps placing me

00:51:38.239 --> 00:51:41.260
within, like their expertise is in these things.

00:51:41.699 --> 00:51:43.179
And so I just pick their brain. I'm like, what

00:51:43.179 --> 00:51:46.579
do I do? So I got lighting. So that'll be neat.

00:51:47.000 --> 00:51:48.920
And then, well, I got one light that's for social

00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:52.380
media, but just baby steps and we'll have like

00:51:52.380 --> 00:51:55.039
a wish list. and then God will make it happen.

00:51:55.539 --> 00:52:02.079
He has so far. We are definitely believers. We

00:52:02.079 --> 00:52:04.380
have definitely been through some things. We

00:52:04.380 --> 00:52:06.239
definitely know His power. We definitely know

00:52:06.239 --> 00:52:09.559
He is for us. We have seen healings. We believe

00:52:09.559 --> 00:52:12.139
miracles. There is nothing this world can throw

00:52:12.139 --> 00:52:14.840
at us that would dissuade our belief in our God.

00:52:15.860 --> 00:52:19.590
I was also on heroin once. And I was healed of

00:52:19.590 --> 00:52:22.230
17 years of chronic neck and shoulder pain for

00:52:22.230 --> 00:52:24.550
those of you who don't know yet. So we'll just

00:52:24.550 --> 00:52:30.230
throw that out there. So I'm a believer. Hallelujah.

00:52:30.670 --> 00:52:32.969
Oh, goodness. Well, with that, we'll talk to

00:52:32.969 --> 00:52:34.849
you next time. Thank you.
