1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,280 There are things that God wants us to participate in on earth as it is in heaven. 2 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:13,120 And when we allow His Holy Spirit to speak through us and speak His heart and pray His 3 00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:21,400 heart, we are operating with Him, cooperating with Him to bring things into the earth that 4 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:34,840 need to be spoken into the earth so that the angels can go to work. 5 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:40,240 God promises in Joel 2, 28 to pour out His Spirit on all humanity. 6 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:45,240 Welcome to Global Outpouring where we contend for that promise outpouring, we equip for 7 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,840 that outpouring so that we may engage in that very outpouring. 8 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,200 I'm Philip Bus. 9 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,200 And I'm Sharon Bus. 10 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,120 Welcome to the podcast today. 11 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,480 We are so excited about what we're going to talk about today because it has everything 12 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:04,480 to do with contending for the outpouring of God's Holy Spirit on all flesh and how we 13 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,720 can all participate. 14 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:12,580 Every single one of us can participate in this process because after all, aren't you 15 00:01:12,580 --> 00:01:13,720 and I flesh? 16 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,300 Yes, we are. 17 00:01:15,300 --> 00:01:22,760 When we can participate, we can cooperate with the Holy Spirit in bringing forth this 18 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:35,720 outpouring of the Spirit of the living God over all people on the earth. 19 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,740 We're so glad that you're with us today on this podcast. 20 00:01:38,740 --> 00:01:45,700 We are so pumped, ready for pouring out the things that God has poured into us to share 21 00:01:45,700 --> 00:01:51,800 with us, to share with you, uncovering mysteries, uncovering secrets, uncovering things that 22 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,780 we didn't even understand. 23 00:01:54,780 --> 00:02:01,300 But we are encountering the Holy Spirit in a whole new way and we want to share that 24 00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:02,300 with you today. 25 00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:06,900 We, well, before we get started, I guess we better say this little thing before we get 26 00:02:06,900 -->

so that you are ready and prepared for the 38 00:03:02,060 --> 00:03:04,660 things that are coming down the pike. 39 00:03:04,660 --> 00:03:10,620 They're coming into our realm, into our existence. 40 00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:16,100 We are expecting things from God and we know that there's other stuff happening because 41 00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:19,780 the devil knows his time is short and it's really short. 42 00:03:19,780 --> 00:03:22,100 It's really, really short. 43 00:03:22,100 --> 00:03:23,980 And he's shooting with both barrels. 44 00:03:23,980 --> 00:03:24,980 That's right. 45 00:03:24,980 --> 00:03:25,980 That's right. 46 00:03:25,980 --> 00:03:30,380 You know, sometimes I picture it like, you know, some of those chase scenes with super 47 00:03:30,380 --> 00:03:34,940 duper cars, you know, where the bad guy has oil in the back of his car and he pushes a 48 00:03:34,940 --> 00:03:39,660 button and it puts out an oil slick for the good guy to get, you know, that's what he's 49 00:03:39,660 --> 00:03:40,660 trying to do. 50 00:03:40,660 --> 00:03:46,460 He's trying to stop us, trying to stop the kingdom of God from coming. 51 00:03:46,460 --> 00:03:47,900 But he can't. 52 00:03:47,900 --> 00:03:49,180 He can't. 53 00:03:49,180 --> 00:03:50,180 He's a loser. 54 00:03:50,180 --> 00:03:51,180 Okay. 55 00:03:51,180 --> 00:03:54,620 He is the forever loser. 56 00:03:54,620 --> 00:03:59,900 And the thing that we're going to talk about today is the power of speaking in tongues 57 00:03:59,900 --> 00:04:06,560 and what it will do for you to build you up in the things of God, to equip you, to make 58 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:13,580 you bold, to give you downloads from heaven, to help you uncover mysteries, all of these 59 00:04:13,580 --> 00:04:19,900 things and these are things that the enemy of your soul wants you to never get. 60 00:04:19,900 --> 00:04:22,600 So we're going to talk about some of that today. 61 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:28,140 And the thing that I just discovered, you know, talking about how the enemy of our souls 62 00:04:28,140 --> 00:04:32,500 is trying to keep us from getting this. 63 00:04:32,500 --> 00:04:39,100 The scripture came to me in my spirit of Ezekiel chapter 28 and how it's talking to the king 64 00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:40,100 of Tyre. 65 00:04:40,100 --> 00:04:42,700 It's a word against the king of Tyre. 66 00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:47,180 It's kind of like a prophecy that is telling what's going to happen to him. 67 00:04:47,180 --> 00:04:52,940 Well then you think at first that it's talking about a person and then it's obvious that 68 00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:54,500 it's talking about the devil. 69 00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:57,380 It's not a natural person it's talking about. 70 00:04:57,380 --> 00:04:58,380 Right. 71 00:04:58,380 --> 00:05:02,180 And I'm trying to figure out why in the world is this the king of Tyre? 72 00:05:02,180 --> 00:05:03,180 The king of Tyre. 73 00:05:03,180 --> 00:05:04,180 Yeah. 74 00:05:04,180 --> 00:05:05,180 Why is this? 75 00:05:05,180 --> 00:05:06,180 Why is this? 76 00:05:06,180 --> 00:05:10,300 So there are multiple reasons and I know some of other ones but I'm not going to go there. 77 00:05:10,300 --> 00:05:12,940 I'm going to go with what I just discovered. 78 00:05:12,940 --> 00:05:17,980 So I'm looking up the word Tyre in the Concordance on my Blue Letter Bible. 79 00:05:17,980 --> 00:05:20,180 This isn't the Tyre on your car. 80 00:05:20,180 --> 00:05:22,980 Actually this is the British way of spelling. 81 00:05:22,980 --> 00:05:24,140 That's true. 82 00:05:24,140 --> 00:05:25,140 That's true. 83 00:05:25,140 --> 00:05:31,860 It's the city of Tyre, the metropolis of the Sidonians as the Bible puts it. 84 00:05:31,860 --> 00:05:32,860 And it's Tyre and Sidon. 85 00:05:32,860 --> 00:05:37,100 You know they're on the Mediterranean coast of it's currently Lebanon but it's part of 86 00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:40,580 what's promised to the children of Israel. 87 00:05:40,580 --> 00:05:48,820 But the name Tyre comes from a word that also means knife. 88 00:05:48,820 --> 00:05:53,180 And we know that the enemy of our souls is the one that's been teaching people how to 89 00:05:53,180 --> 00:05:54,180 make war. 90 00:05:54,180 --> 00:05:55,180 Yeah. 91 00:05:55,180 --> 00:05:56,180 Right? 92 00:05:56,180 --> 00:05:57,180 Okay. 93 00:05:57,180 --> 00:06:01,220 And that word, the word for knife, it really means rock but it also means like a rock that 94 00:06:01,220 --> 00:06:06,140 has been shaped to be sharp like a knife, like flint. 95 00:06:06,140 --> 00:06:08,700 Like how they used to make knives. 96 00:06:08,700 --> 00:06:09,700 Exactly. 97 00:06:09,700 --> 00:06:17,660 And that word comes from the word sur which is the same pronunciation as Tyre in Hebrew. 98 00:06:17,660 --> 00:06:27,580 And it means to bind, besiege, confine, cramp, to shut up, to shut in, to enclose, to show 99 00:06:27,580 --> 00:06:31,100 hostility to, to be an adversary. 100 00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:34,940 Well that's one of the names of the enemy of our souls. 101 00:06:34,940 --> 00:06:38,020 In Revelation it talks about the accuser of the brethren. 102 00:06:38,020 --> 00:06:39,260 He's our adversary. 103 00:06:39,260 --> 00:06:42,940 And that makes a whole lot more sense when you read this now. 104 00:06:42,940 --> 00:06:43,940 Yeah. 105 00:06:43,940 --> 00:06:46,860 King of Tyre, it's not talking about a natural king. 106 00:06:46,860 --> 00:06:47,860 That's right. 107 00:06:47,860 --> 00:06:50,700 It's talking about a spiritual dark king. 108 00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:51,700 Yeah. 109 00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:55,100 And in heaven he was the anointed cherub that covered. 110 00:06:55,100 --> 00:06:56,100 That covered. 111 00:06:56,100 --> 00:06:57,100 Okay. 112 00:06:57,100 --> 00:06:58,980 And that's in Ezekiel 28. 113 00:06:58,980 --> 00:07:05,540 So he is trying to cover things up and keep us from discovering things. 114 00:07:05,540 --> 00:07:12,060 So one of the things that is so wonderful about the gift of speaking in tongues or the 115 00:07:12,060 --> 00:07:15,780 evidence of the baptism in the Holy Spirit that is speaking in tongues. 116 00:07:15,780 --> 00:07:23,500 And to me it's not a hill that's worth dying on to argue about it's the initial evidence 117 00:07:23,500 --> 00:07:26,180 of being baptized in the Holy Spirit. 118 00:07:26,180 --> 00:07:30,740 I think it probably is, but I don't think it's worth fighting over. 119 00:07:30,740 --> 00:07:32,340 Let's not divide over that. 120 00:07:32,340 --> 00:07:33,340 Right. 121 00:07:33,340 --> 00:07:41,660 But 1 Corinthians 14.2 says, Paul is talking about tongues. 122 00:07:41,660 --> 00:07:49,380 And a lot of times this chapter is used to keep people from speaking in tongues. 123 00:07:49,380 --> 00:07:51,860 Yeah. 124 00:07:51,860 --> 00:07:58,180 Because it's all about, you know, let's keep things in order in church, which of course 125 00:07:58,180 --> 00:07:59,820 we want order in church. 126 00:07:59,820 --> 00:08:06,500 And if you really read through this, you'll get it because there's the principle of speaking 127 00:08:06,500 --> 00:08:13,980 in tongues as just an exuberance or, you know, you just get really excited in the Spirit 128 00:08:13,980 --> 00:08:17,480 and you just, you can't hold it in and you're speaking in tongues. 129 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,340 And there's a place for that just in the congregation when everybody's doing it. 130 00:08:22,340 --> 00:08:27,020 You know, when the Holy Spirit's falling or whatever, there is that place that that's 131 00:08:27,020 --> 00:08:29,460 okay, everybody pray in tongues. 132 00:08:29,460 --> 00:08:32,800 And that's a corporate prayer. 133 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:39,320 But then there's the speaking in tongues that should be a message from heaven with an interpreter. 134 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:45,780 But there's a praying in tongues that, well, let's just go, let's look at verse 2. 135 00:08:45,780 --> 00:08:50,520 It says, and I'm reading from the Amplified, for one who speaks in an unknown tongue speaks 136 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,820 not to men, but to God. 137 00:08:52,820 --> 00:08:55,040 And that's the first thing. 138 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,460 This is a language for us to speak to God with. 139 00:08:58,460 --> 00:08:59,460 Okay. 140 00:08:59,460 --> 00:09:00,460 Yes. 141 00:09:00,460 --> 00:09:05,420 And we're going to look back at a little history first in a minute, but we'll come back to 142 00:09:05,420 --> 00:09:06,420 that. 143 00:09:06,420 --> 00:09:11,620 For no one understands or catches his meaning because in the Holy Spirit he utters secret 144 00:09:11,620 --> 00:09:15,620 truths and hidden things not obvious to the understanding. 145 00:09:15,620 --> 00:09:17,860 King James talks about he utters mysteries. 146 00:09:17,860 --> 00:09:18,860 Okay. 147 00:09:18,860 --> 00:09:24,980 So we're uncovering things that have been covered and we don't even understand. 148 00:09:24,980 --> 00:09:31,660 And it's probably best that we don't understand because there are things that God wants us 149 00:09:31,660 --> 00:09:35,860 to participate in on earth as it is in heaven. 150 00:09:35,860 --> 00:09:42,260 And when we allow his Holy Spirit to speak through us and speak his heart and pray his 151 00:09:42,260 --> 00:09:50,980 heart, we are operating with him, cooperating with him to bring things into the earth that 152 00:09:50,980 --> 00:09:56,720 need to be spoken into the earth so that the angels can go to work. 153 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:02,260 We have that in Psalm 103 verse 20, where it says that the angels are standing by listening 154 00:10:02,260 --> 00:10:07,180 for and ready to move on the voice of his word. 155 00:10:07,180 --> 00:10:08,180 Okay. 156 00:10:08,180 --> 00:10:13,180 So when we pray his, when we pray, when we give voice to his word, when we're praying 157 00:10:13,180 --> 00:10:19,780 from the Bible, the angels move, they go to work because they hear the voice of his word. 158 00:10:19,780 --> 00:10:21,620 They hear the voice of the word. 159 00:10:21,620 --> 00:10:29,740 But he is also the word and his spirit, when he prays through us in tongues, is also bringing 160 00:10:29,740 --> 00:10:34,500 forth the word into the earth so that they can go to work. 161 00:10:34,500 --> 00:10:38,140 Even if we don't understand, we don't have to understand it. 162 00:10:38,140 --> 00:10:44,300 So Paul says in first Corinthians 14, four, he who speaks in a strange tongue or an unknown 163 00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:50,060 tongue edifies or builds up and improves himself. 164 00:10:50,060 --> 00:10:54,500 And we know that the ones that prophesy or the ones that speak in tongues and bring an 165 00:10:54,500 --> 00:10:57,340 interpretation are building up the church. 166 00:10:57,340 --> 00:10:58,780 They're building up the body. 167 00:10:58,780 --> 00:10:59,780 Yeah. 168 00:10:59,780 --> 00:11:04,580 And in the passion translation, it says, the one who speaks in tongues advances his own 169 00:11:04,580 --> 00:11:06,380 spiritual progress. 170 00:11:06,380 --> 00:11:07,520 Yes. 171 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:08,800 And that's what this is all about. 172 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,680 We are contending and we are equipping. 173 00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:17,620 So in your prayer closet, you need to be praying in tongues. 174 00:11:17,620 --> 00:11:21,140 Let's roll this back to how we got started on this episode. 175 00:11:21,140 --> 00:11:27,580 The last two episodes that we've done with John and Linda Thomas, John shared the story 176 00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:33,540 of how he began to pray in tongues an hour a day for 30 days. 177 00:11:33,540 --> 00:11:36,240 And then he did a Daniel fast for seven days. 178 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,820 And God just began to roll off of him addictions. 179 00:11:40,820 --> 00:11:45,260 He rolled off of him an addiction to pornography and he rolled off of his wife an addiction 180 00:11:45,260 --> 00:11:46,700 to wine. 181 00:11:46,700 --> 00:11:49,980 So there's power in this praying in tongues. 182 00:11:49,980 --> 00:11:51,580 Yeah, to change the household. 183 00:11:51,580 --> 00:11:53,260 Exchange the household. 184 00:11:53,260 --> 00:11:54,700 And what happened to us? 185 00:11:54,700 --> 00:12:00,340 Well, we just took that as a real challenge because we knew we had to, it's like the word 186 00:12:00,340 --> 00:12:05,060 of the Lord to me this last year, you need to step up your game. 187 00:12:05,060 --> 00:12:09,420 I think up your game is a phrase we use too. 188 00:12:09,420 --> 00:12:12,100 And that's like in sports and stuff, you have to up your game. 189 00:12:12,100 --> 00:12:15,380 That means you need to improve. 190 00:12:15,380 --> 00:12:20,060 So stepping up, stepping higher, stepping in, come up higher. 191 00:12:20,060 --> 00:12:22,600 You need to come up higher. 192 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,660 And so that was a challenge that I knew was something needed to do, because we all pray 193 00:12:26,660 --> 00:12:28,500 in tongues. 194 00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:32,800 Something happens all of a sudden, you just start praying in the Holy Ghost and that, 195 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,780 but they're spending time doing it. 196 00:12:35,780 --> 00:12:41,140 That's one thing we haven't done, so we just started doing that an hour in the morning, 197 00:12:41,140 --> 00:12:45,700 just getting up and not even together, just in our own prayer time. 198 00:12:45,700 --> 00:12:49,540 We would just pray in tongues for an hour. 199 00:12:49,540 --> 00:12:55,260 And we were praying in tongues some already previous to that, but we increased. 200 00:12:55,260 --> 00:12:56,260 We increased it. 201 00:12:56,260 --> 00:13:01,940 And I've been saying that I've been seeing that as a thought comes into my mind that 202 00:13:01,940 --> 00:13:07,340 doesn't belong there, I find myself praying in tongues, just speaking to it in tongues. 203 00:13:07,340 --> 00:13:10,420 And so my tongues have been increasing as well. 204 00:13:10,420 --> 00:13:17,860 But one of the things that Paul says in verse five of 1 Corinthians 14, he says, I would 205 00:13:17,860 --> 00:13:21,900 or I wish that you all spoke with tongues. 206 00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:24,740 So this is something for all of us. 207 00:13:24,740 --> 00:13:32,860 But then he goes on in verse 14, he says, for if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit 208 00:13:32,860 --> 00:13:36,060 prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. 209 00:13:36,060 --> 00:13:40,620 In other words, you're praying something you don't understand. 210 00:13:40,620 --> 00:13:43,220 So he says in verse 15, what is it then? 211 00:13:43,220 --> 00:13:48,460 I will pray with the spirit and I will pray with the understanding also. 212 00:13:48,460 --> 00:13:52,120 I will sing with the spirit and I will sing with the understanding also. 213 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:57,940 And so many times, like if we're in a corporate prayer situation, sometimes if we don't know 214 00:13:57,940 --> 00:14:04,940 exactly what direction to go in prayer, in intercession, we pray in tongues for a little 215 00:14:04,940 --> 00:14:11,460 while and then somebody in the group gets a leading from the Holy Spirit. 216 00:14:11,460 --> 00:14:18,100 A scripture will come or a song will come into their spirit or words will come into 217 00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:24,780 their spirit, words to pray or words to prophesy or a vision or a vision or word of knowledge 218 00:14:24,780 --> 00:14:26,380 or word of wisdom. 219 00:14:26,380 --> 00:14:31,920 Those things are opened up to us as we pray in tongues. 220 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,440 So this is something that all of us should be doing. 221 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,800 And if you haven't got it yet, it's time today to get it. 222 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:46,740 We're going to pray for you in a little while, but just so that you understand the, we're 223 00:14:46,740 --> 00:14:52,100 going to lay some foundation here to give you a deeper understanding of what this gift 224 00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:56,500 is all about and how God wants to use it in your life. 225 00:14:56,500 --> 00:15:04,460 So let's go back and even into the Old Testament, Isaiah 28, 11 says, with stammering lips and 226 00:15:04,460 --> 00:15:07,540 another tongue, will he speak to this people? 227 00:15:07,540 --> 00:15:15,340 So that's always been shown to me in all my years of study of this and it's taken a little 228 00:15:15,340 --> 00:15:19,500 bit out of context, but I think it's one of those things that still fits. 229 00:15:19,500 --> 00:15:25,300 It fits that stammering and lips and an unknown tongue describes what you get when you get 230 00:15:25,300 --> 00:15:26,580 the Holy Spirit. 231 00:15:26,580 --> 00:15:27,580 Yeah. 232 00:15:27,580 --> 00:15:34,580 And in verse 18, you know, this is Isaiah 66, 18, that's in the New King James, for 233 00:15:34,580 --> 00:15:37,380 I know their works and their thoughts. 234 00:15:37,380 --> 00:15:43,580 It shall be that I will gather all nations and tongues and they shall come and see my 235 00:15:43,580 --> 00:15:44,580 glory. 236 00:15:44,580 --> 00:15:45,580 Yes. 237 00:15:45,580 --> 00:15:49,060 And then that happened on the day of the day of Pentecost, right? 238 00:15:49,060 --> 00:15:56,720 When they came from all nations up to the feast and celebrating the feast of Pentecost. 239 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,740 And they all spoke with tongues and they're listening to each other. 240 00:16:00,740 --> 00:16:04,500 You know, all these speaking with tongues and said, aren't these all Galileans? 241 00:16:04,500 --> 00:16:06,000 You know, Galilean is the region. 242 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,900 They had their own dialect, you know, and all of a sudden they're speaking languages, 243 00:16:10,900 --> 00:16:13,380 they're speaking their own languages where they came from. 244 00:16:13,380 --> 00:16:14,380 Right. 245 00:16:14,380 --> 00:16:19,340 Because all these Jews that have come up were those that have been, you know, when the Babylonians 246 00:16:19,340 --> 00:16:26,340 came in and they went into captivity and Ezekiel, he was taken by the Syrians, I think it was, 247 00:16:26,340 --> 00:16:27,340 or the Babylonians. 248 00:16:27,340 --> 00:16:29,940 It was the Babylonians and the Syrians. 249 00:16:29,940 --> 00:16:34,580 They each took captivity, you know, Israel and Judah. 250 00:16:34,580 --> 00:16:38,380 And so, and then from there, they're just scattered all over the world. 251 00:16:38,380 --> 00:16:39,380 Yeah. 252 00:16:39,380 --> 00:16:40,380 All over the known world. 253 00:16:40,380 --> 00:16:45,060 And so they're all back together, you know, they're under Rome, they're under bondage, 254 00:16:45,060 --> 00:16:47,540 but Rome let them keep their feast. 255 00:16:47,540 --> 00:16:48,540 Right. 256 00:16:48,540 --> 00:16:52,720 And so here they are coming up from all the nations they've been scattered from. 257 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,780 And we don't know exactly everything they were hearing, but their own, hearing it in 258 00:16:56,780 --> 00:16:57,780 their own language. 259 00:16:57,780 --> 00:16:58,780 Right. 260 00:16:58,780 --> 00:17:04,740 And it's amazing because people can say things, you know, in the spirit like that, and they'll 261 00:17:04,740 --> 00:17:10,700 hear it in their own tongue, but they'll hear it not maybe like we have the English language. 262 00:17:10,700 --> 00:17:15,380 We have the British accent and changes all over the UK. 263 00:17:15,380 --> 00:17:20,020 You have the Australian accent, you have the American accents, and they're all different, 264 00:17:20,020 --> 00:17:21,860 each within their own country. 265 00:17:21,860 --> 00:17:25,540 But they would, many times they would hear something, they hear something in their own 266 00:17:25,540 --> 00:17:29,220 tongue the way they would hear it in their home area. 267 00:17:29,220 --> 00:17:30,220 Yeah. 268 00:17:30,220 --> 00:17:32,300 But not another accent in their home area. 269 00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:33,700 You know what I mean? 270 00:17:33,700 --> 00:17:34,700 Sure. 271 00:17:34,700 --> 00:17:36,940 It's so precise for them to hear this. 272 00:17:36,940 --> 00:17:37,940 It's true. 273 00:17:37,940 --> 00:17:38,940 You know. 274 00:17:38,940 --> 00:17:44,380 It's really interesting to note in Acts chapter two, because that's where you're talking about. 275 00:17:44,380 --> 00:17:51,340 In Acts chapter two, I've heard Dr. Billy Brim talk about how she used to work for Kenneth 276 00:17:51,340 --> 00:17:52,720 E. Hagen. 277 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:57,860 And he walked into her office one day and he said, have you ever noticed in Acts chapter 278 00:17:57,860 --> 00:18:04,660 two, it says that they heard them speak in their own language? 279 00:18:04,660 --> 00:18:08,740 It's not necessarily that they were actually speaking in their own language, although it 280 00:18:08,740 --> 00:18:09,740 could have been. 281 00:18:09,740 --> 00:18:16,740 It could be either way, because we hear testimonies of people that are missionaries to different 282 00:18:16,740 --> 00:18:22,340 places, and they don't have an interpreter or somebody comes as a guest speaker and they 283 00:18:22,340 --> 00:18:25,380 don't have a good interpreter and they start speaking in tongues. 284 00:18:25,380 --> 00:18:28,900 And the people hear it in their own language, whether they're actually speaking that language 285 00:18:28,900 --> 00:18:31,820 or whether they're speaking in tongues, I don't know. 286 00:18:31,820 --> 00:18:34,460 But they hear it in their own language. 287 00:18:34,460 --> 00:18:41,980 So what's been happening with her and with Dr. Billy Brim in recent, I'm not sure just 288 00:18:41,980 --> 00:18:47,580 how long, I think it's at least two or three years now, that she will speak in tongues 289 00:18:47,580 --> 00:18:49,560 on their prayer call. 290 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:54,940 And there's a man named Max who has come from Jordan. 291 00:18:54,940 --> 00:18:58,260 And so his native tongue is Arabic. 292 00:18:58,260 --> 00:19:04,020 And when she is speaking in tongues, in tongues, and it sounds to us like tongues. 293 00:19:04,020 --> 00:19:05,020 Yeah. 294 00:19:05,020 --> 00:19:10,380 He hears it in Arabic, and he writes down what he's hearing in Arabic. 295 00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:15,220 And often there'll be like a statement and sometimes it's underlined. 296 00:19:15,220 --> 00:19:21,780 And then there often will be a scripture reference that describes the thing that was just spoken. 297 00:19:21,780 --> 00:19:24,500 It is absolutely supernatural. 298 00:19:24,500 --> 00:19:32,660 And it happens every week that if you go out to Billybrim.org and we'll put a link in the 299 00:19:32,660 --> 00:19:40,220 show notes for that, and it's B-I-L-L-Y-E, B-R-I-M dot O-R-G. 300 00:19:40,220 --> 00:19:43,100 She speaks, it's under their prayer call. 301 00:19:43,100 --> 00:19:47,500 And she speaks in her own tongues. 302 00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:51,220 And he gets it in Arabic and then interprets it into English. 303 00:19:51,220 --> 00:19:54,260 It is just so, so remarkable. 304 00:19:54,260 --> 00:20:00,220 So that's yet another version of what happens when we speak in tongues. 305 00:20:00,220 --> 00:20:04,860 There are things that are mysteries that God wants us to uncover. 306 00:20:04,860 --> 00:20:06,980 He wants us to know these things. 307 00:20:06,980 --> 00:20:11,000 But there are some things that we don't need to know. 308 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,500 We just don't need to know. 309 00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:13,500 Yeah, that's true. 310 00:20:13,500 --> 00:20:14,500 We can mess things up. 311 00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:15,500 Yeah, we can. 312 00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:16,500 We can. 313 00:20:16,500 --> 00:20:23,380 But that reminds me of Romans 8 and what it says about how the Holy Spirit will intercede 314 00:20:23,380 --> 00:20:28,700 in us and through us for things that we don't know how to pray. 315 00:20:28,700 --> 00:20:31,940 I'm going to read it from the New King James. 316 00:20:31,940 --> 00:20:37,840 And Philip, if you see anything in the passion that you want to add, just add that. 317 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:45,020 It says in verse 22, we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs 318 00:20:45,020 --> 00:20:47,240 together until now. 319 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:53,260 Not only that, but we also who have the first fruits of the Spirit, the first fruits of 320 00:20:53,260 --> 00:20:57,140 the Spirit, the first thing that comes with the Holy Spirit is tongues. 321 00:20:57,140 --> 00:20:59,220 Yeah, the first fruits of the Spirit. 322 00:20:59,220 --> 00:21:04,900 Even we ourselves groan within ourselves eagerly awaiting for the adoption, the redemption of 323 00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:05,900 our body. 324 00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:12,780 And then verse 26 says, likewise, the Spirit also helps us in our weaknesses, for we do 325 00:21:12,780 --> 00:21:16,460 not know what we should pray for as we ought. 326 00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:23,060 But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 327 00:21:23,060 --> 00:21:24,780 How does that verse? 328 00:21:24,780 --> 00:21:25,780 Verse 26. 329 00:21:25,780 --> 00:21:28,620 How does that read in the passion? 330 00:21:28,620 --> 00:21:34,060 And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower 331 00:21:34,060 --> 00:21:36,140 us in our weakness. 332 00:21:36,140 --> 00:21:42,700 For example, at times we don't even know how to pray or know the best things to ask for, 333 00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:46,860 but the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super intercede on our behalf. 334 00:21:46,860 --> 00:21:47,860 Oh, that's beautiful. 335 00:21:47,860 --> 00:21:48,860 Yeah. 336 00:21:48,860 --> 00:21:53,580 Pleading to God with the emotional sighs too deep for words. 337 00:21:53,580 --> 00:21:56,100 Growns, okay. 338 00:21:56,100 --> 00:22:02,940 So let me just exhort you that if you don't yet pray in tongues, if it hasn't come to 339 00:22:02,940 --> 00:22:06,740 you yet to pray in tongues, and we're going to pray for you to get it. 340 00:22:06,740 --> 00:22:16,580 But if you haven't yet come to that point, you can start by faith when you're praying, 341 00:22:16,580 --> 00:22:24,220 when you're praying, ask the Holy Spirit to just even sigh through you or even groan through 342 00:22:24,220 --> 00:22:25,220 you. 343 00:22:25,220 --> 00:22:32,580 Sometimes, sometimes it's like, mmm, mmm, mmm. 344 00:22:32,580 --> 00:22:38,060 And that even can give way to speaking in tongues. 345 00:22:38,060 --> 00:22:40,660 But the Holy Spirit knows how to interpret a groan. 346 00:22:40,660 --> 00:22:43,900 Our Father knows what our spirit groaning is saying. 347 00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:46,500 He knows our hearts. 348 00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:50,180 So if you're praying, especially if you're praying something that you have a little understanding 349 00:22:50,180 --> 00:22:55,620 about, a groan says a lot to our Father. 350 00:22:55,620 --> 00:22:59,980 I remember, and this is a little off subject, but I think it goes with it, that William 351 00:22:59,980 --> 00:23:07,060 Booth, who was the founder of the Salvation Army, he had someone writing to him and saying, 352 00:23:07,060 --> 00:23:09,660 we have tried everything. 353 00:23:09,660 --> 00:23:12,380 We're preaching the gospel. 354 00:23:12,380 --> 00:23:13,420 We're banging our drums. 355 00:23:13,420 --> 00:23:14,600 We're playing our music. 356 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:19,060 We're doing all the things that you've told us to, but we're not seeing breakthrough. 357 00:23:19,060 --> 00:23:22,940 And he wrote back to them and he said, try tears. 358 00:23:22,940 --> 00:23:27,900 Because tears, God knows how to interpret tears. 359 00:23:27,900 --> 00:23:35,820 He knows how the tears that we cry will write a prayer for God. 360 00:23:35,820 --> 00:23:44,220 And so our groanings, our tears, our sighs, all of these things are an intercession because 361 00:23:44,220 --> 00:23:46,820 we don't know how to pray sometimes. 362 00:23:46,820 --> 00:23:52,580 And verse 27 says, now he who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the spirit is 363 00:23:52,580 --> 00:23:57,480 because he makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 364 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,860 So if you want to pray the will of God, pray in tongues, you won't miss. 365 00:24:01,860 --> 00:24:02,860 You cannot miss. 366 00:24:02,860 --> 00:24:03,860 It's impossible. 367 00:24:03,860 --> 00:24:06,640 It's impossible to miss if you're praying in tongues. 368 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,580 And so many times we take this next verse out of context. 369 00:24:10,580 --> 00:24:17,620 We put it by itself, but it fits with the groanings and the intercession of the spirit. 370 00:24:17,620 --> 00:24:21,540 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who 371 00:24:21,540 --> 00:24:24,060 are the called according to his purpose. 372 00:24:24,060 --> 00:24:29,600 For whom he foreknew, remember this is still in context of the spirit making intercession. 373 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:36,460 For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his son, that 374 00:24:36,460 --> 00:24:41,940 he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 375 00:24:41,940 --> 00:24:47,820 Moreover whom he predestined, these he also called, those whom he called, he also justified 376 00:24:47,820 --> 00:24:50,700 and whom he justified, these he also glorified. 377 00:24:50,700 --> 00:24:58,980 So understand that when you are praying in tongues, you are praying your destiny. 378 00:24:58,980 --> 00:25:06,020 He designed you, he predestined you, he designed you to be conformed to the image of his son. 379 00:25:06,020 --> 00:25:09,080 He wants us to look like him. 380 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,540 He designed us to look like him. 381 00:25:11,540 --> 00:25:16,260 And we know that when he appears, we shall be like him for we shall see him as he is. 382 00:25:16,260 --> 00:25:21,980 He's designed us to work with him that his spirit will be working in us and through us 383 00:25:21,980 --> 00:25:28,940 to bring his word into the earth, to bring his glory into the earth. 384 00:25:28,940 --> 00:25:35,660 Remember what John the Baptist said about Jesus in Luke 3, 16. 385 00:25:35,660 --> 00:25:38,620 They were asking John, who are you? 386 00:25:38,620 --> 00:25:39,620 Are you that prophet? 387 00:25:39,620 --> 00:25:42,120 Are you the Messiah? 388 00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:43,820 And he said, no, I'm not. 389 00:25:43,820 --> 00:25:45,680 I'm the voice of one crying in the wilderness. 390 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:52,500 But then he goes on to say, I indeed baptized you with water, but one mightier than I is 391 00:25:52,500 --> 00:25:57,060 coming, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose. 392 00:25:57,060 --> 00:26:00,820 In other words, I'm not even worthy to untie his sandals. 393 00:26:00,820 --> 00:26:05,980 He shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. 394 00:26:05,980 --> 00:26:06,980 Fuego. 395 00:26:06,980 --> 00:26:07,980 Fuego. 396 00:26:07,980 --> 00:26:08,980 Okay. 397 00:26:08,980 --> 00:26:17,060 So let's, let's take that and go back to Acts chapter two. 398 00:26:17,060 --> 00:26:23,620 Acts chapter two comes after Jesus has gone up into back into heaven. 399 00:26:23,620 --> 00:26:26,280 He's gone up in the clouds. 400 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,300 They saw him as he went. 401 00:26:28,300 --> 00:26:34,380 He told them, you know, stick around here in Jerusalem because you're going to be in 402 00:26:34,380 --> 00:26:36,420 dude with power from on high. 403 00:26:36,420 --> 00:26:37,420 Yes. 404 00:26:37,420 --> 00:26:38,420 Amen. 405 00:26:38,420 --> 00:26:39,420 Okay. 406 00:26:39,420 --> 00:26:43,520 So it was like 10 days before the feast of Pentecost, the feast of Shavuot, the feast 407 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,060 of weeks. 408 00:26:46,060 --> 00:26:52,260 The Jewish men were commanded to come up to Jerusalem for Passover, for Shavuot and for 409 00:26:52,260 --> 00:26:53,480 Sukkot. 410 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:58,300 So there's a 50 day distance between Passover and Shavuot. 411 00:26:58,300 --> 00:27:02,100 And we know that they went up into Galilee for part of that time and Jesus walked with 412 00:27:02,100 --> 00:27:04,860 them for 40 days and then he went up into heaven. 413 00:27:04,860 --> 00:27:07,300 So there's 10 days left. 414 00:27:07,300 --> 00:27:12,100 And so he says, just stay in your, don't go anyplace else. 415 00:27:12,100 --> 00:27:13,580 Stay in Jerusalem. 416 00:27:13,580 --> 00:27:18,460 And then when the day of Pentecost was fully come, well, now let's talk about what's Shavuot. 417 00:27:18,460 --> 00:27:25,540 Shavuot, the day of Pentecost, the feast of Pentecost is a Jewish feast that commemorates 418 00:27:25,540 --> 00:27:30,260 the giving of the law at Mount Sinai. 419 00:27:30,260 --> 00:27:33,940 So think about Exodus 19. 420 00:27:33,940 --> 00:27:40,820 Think about how the mountain was smoking because this pillar of fire came down on top of it. 421 00:27:40,820 --> 00:27:41,820 And lightning. 422 00:27:41,820 --> 00:27:45,940 And lightning and thunder and a shofar blowing. 423 00:27:45,940 --> 00:27:48,580 I never warned ahead of time. 424 00:27:48,580 --> 00:27:49,580 Yes. 425 00:27:49,580 --> 00:27:52,220 You know, for three days, you know, wash your clothes. 426 00:27:52,220 --> 00:27:53,220 Right. 427 00:27:53,220 --> 00:27:54,220 Prepare yourselves. 428 00:27:54,220 --> 00:27:55,220 Prepare yourselves. 429 00:27:55,220 --> 00:27:56,220 Okay. 430 00:27:56,220 --> 00:27:57,220 Wow. 431 00:27:57,220 --> 00:28:00,980 So Jesus told his disciples to go prepare yourselves. 432 00:28:00,980 --> 00:28:03,740 You are about to have an encounter with God. 433 00:28:03,740 --> 00:28:04,740 Talk about a download. 434 00:28:04,740 --> 00:28:06,100 I mean, it came down. 435 00:28:06,100 --> 00:28:07,820 Oh, yes it did. 436 00:28:07,820 --> 00:28:15,220 So in Acts chapter two, it says when the day of Pentecost or Shavuot was fully come. 437 00:28:15,220 --> 00:28:22,100 Now remember that the day begins with night as far back as Genesis one. 438 00:28:22,100 --> 00:28:24,380 And then the evening and the morning were the first day. 439 00:28:24,380 --> 00:28:26,020 The evening and the morning were the second day. 440 00:28:26,020 --> 00:28:28,820 So day begins with night. 441 00:28:28,820 --> 00:28:29,820 Yeah. 442 00:28:29,820 --> 00:28:30,820 Okay. 443 00:28:30,820 --> 00:28:35,820 So the day of Pentecost began as the sun went down. 444 00:28:35,820 --> 00:28:43,040 And traditionally, at least now, I think they probably did then, they spent the night praying 445 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,180 and reading scripture. 446 00:28:45,180 --> 00:28:49,220 So they were preparing themselves for an encounter. 447 00:28:49,220 --> 00:28:53,940 That's how come they were in one place in one accord because they were praying together. 448 00:28:53,940 --> 00:28:54,940 Yeah. 449 00:28:54,940 --> 00:28:55,940 Okay. 450 00:28:55,940 --> 00:29:02,380 And traditionally now, at least if you are in Jerusalem at that time, people will be 451 00:29:02,380 --> 00:29:06,020 in their synagogues all night long praying together. 452 00:29:06,020 --> 00:29:13,780 And then while it's still dark, they are headed toward the temple mount, but they can't get 453 00:29:13,780 --> 00:29:15,860 up to the temple mount right now. 454 00:29:15,860 --> 00:29:19,820 They have to go to the Western wall, which is the retaining wall of the temple mount 455 00:29:19,820 --> 00:29:22,180 that's the closest they can get. 456 00:29:22,180 --> 00:29:25,320 And they go there to celebrate. 457 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:31,300 But in the days of the book of Acts, they would have gone to the temple. 458 00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:35,660 Because it says that this noise of a rushing mighty wind filled the house. 459 00:29:35,660 --> 00:29:36,660 The house. 460 00:29:36,660 --> 00:29:39,060 And the house is the temple. 461 00:29:39,060 --> 00:29:45,300 Yeah, we've been all this time, you know, because we heard this explained to us. 462 00:29:45,300 --> 00:29:51,140 I thought that just makes sense because we think of a hundred, 120 people in this little 463 00:29:51,140 --> 00:29:53,980 upper room and the Holy Ghost falls on them. 464 00:29:53,980 --> 00:29:58,980 And so they have a flame of fire and they run outside, you know, and then 3000 people 465 00:29:58,980 --> 00:29:59,980 get saved. 466 00:29:59,980 --> 00:30:00,980 Yeah. 467 00:30:00,980 --> 00:30:01,980 Like how does that happen? 468 00:30:01,980 --> 00:30:02,980 Yeah. 469 00:30:02,980 --> 00:30:05,980 But if one, but if they're on the temple mount, right. 470 00:30:05,980 --> 00:30:12,700 Because if you look at diagrams of the temple, it's a big open area on the outside. 471 00:30:12,700 --> 00:30:18,300 And you know, an artist proclaim maybe, maybe like a five or six inch little double flame 472 00:30:18,300 --> 00:30:21,860 of fire or maybe even two or three inches or two or three inches. 473 00:30:21,860 --> 00:30:26,900 But there are those that have, you know, the Lord has shown them this. 474 00:30:26,900 --> 00:30:28,220 It's a lot bigger than that. 475 00:30:28,220 --> 00:30:30,540 I mean, it's a flame of fire. 476 00:30:30,540 --> 00:30:36,300 Because the Holy Ghost is like two feet long, like fire, you know, coming down and everybody 477 00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:41,140 around, which would have been thousands of people would have seen it. 478 00:30:41,140 --> 00:30:45,220 And that's why Peter had an audience and explained what happened. 479 00:30:45,220 --> 00:30:48,780 Then he had a boldness because he had the Holy Spirit fall on him. 480 00:30:48,780 --> 00:30:54,100 Remember 40 days, 50 days earlier, he denied the Lord. 481 00:30:54,100 --> 00:30:56,420 And here he is, 3000 people got saved. 482 00:30:56,420 --> 00:30:59,620 How do you do that within 40, 50 days? 483 00:30:59,620 --> 00:31:00,620 We've had a transformation. 484 00:31:00,620 --> 00:31:01,620 Exactly. 485 00:31:01,620 --> 00:31:04,380 And that's just what the Holy Spirit does. 486 00:31:04,380 --> 00:31:05,380 Yes. 487 00:31:05,380 --> 00:31:06,580 It transforms. 488 00:31:06,580 --> 00:31:08,500 And that makes a whole lot more sense. 489 00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:14,060 The fire of God coming down on the temple mount where thousands of people see it and 490 00:31:14,060 --> 00:31:15,660 experience what's going on. 491 00:31:15,660 --> 00:31:17,340 And then they hear all the tongues. 492 00:31:17,340 --> 00:31:18,340 Yes. 493 00:31:18,340 --> 00:31:19,340 Wow. 494 00:31:19,340 --> 00:31:20,340 Yes. 495 00:31:20,340 --> 00:31:23,860 Because these people had come from all of those nations because they were commanded 496 00:31:23,860 --> 00:31:28,140 to come for Passover, come for Pentecost, come for Sukkot. 497 00:31:28,140 --> 00:31:35,780 Now they may not actually do that every year, but probably if they came for Passover from 498 00:31:35,780 --> 00:31:39,820 far, far away, they probably would stay until Pentecost. 499 00:31:39,820 --> 00:31:44,660 So these people had come from all these nations where they'd been dispersed. 500 00:31:44,660 --> 00:31:45,660 They were born there. 501 00:31:45,660 --> 00:31:46,660 They grew up there. 502 00:31:46,660 --> 00:31:52,780 They hadn't returned when the other Jews had returned, when the other Israelites had returned. 503 00:31:52,780 --> 00:31:55,920 And so they're coming from these nations. 504 00:31:55,920 --> 00:32:00,740 And it was like they were a seed of what's coming now. 505 00:32:00,740 --> 00:32:01,740 What's coming next. 506 00:32:01,740 --> 00:32:02,740 Yeah. 507 00:32:02,740 --> 00:32:07,300 Because Peter was talking about the quote from Joel chapter two, where I will pour out 508 00:32:07,300 --> 00:32:09,900 of my spirit on all humanity. 509 00:32:09,900 --> 00:32:10,900 All humanity. 510 00:32:10,900 --> 00:32:11,900 That's our scripture. 511 00:32:11,900 --> 00:32:12,900 Yes. 512 00:32:12,900 --> 00:32:18,780 And so he's saying that here's all these people from all these nations. 513 00:32:18,780 --> 00:32:22,180 This is that that's spoken of by the prophet Joel. 514 00:32:22,180 --> 00:32:24,580 But if this was a seed form. 515 00:32:24,580 --> 00:32:29,140 Then what we're going to have now is on all flesh. 516 00:32:29,140 --> 00:32:30,140 Yeah. 517 00:32:30,140 --> 00:32:39,380 And in the gospel of Mark, in chapter 16, verses 15, 17, 18, he says to them, go into 518 00:32:39,380 --> 00:32:40,380 all the world. 519 00:32:40,380 --> 00:32:43,380 This is after Jesus is resurrected. 520 00:32:43,380 --> 00:32:48,260 And before he just before he ascended up, go into all the world and preach the gospel 521 00:32:48,260 --> 00:32:49,980 to every creature. 522 00:32:49,980 --> 00:32:52,620 And these signs will follow those who believe. 523 00:32:52,620 --> 00:32:55,060 Okay, the Holy Spirit's not been poured out yet. 524 00:32:55,060 --> 00:32:56,740 You know, that's coming. 525 00:32:56,740 --> 00:33:01,580 So these signs will follow them who believe in my name, they will cast out demons, they 526 00:33:01,580 --> 00:33:02,980 will speak with new tongues. 527 00:33:02,980 --> 00:33:06,300 And that's what happened, you know, just later. 528 00:33:06,300 --> 00:33:09,580 They will take up serpents and they drink anything deadly. 529 00:33:09,580 --> 00:33:11,060 It will by no means hurt them. 530 00:33:11,060 --> 00:33:14,400 They will lay hands on the sick and they will recover. 531 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:19,580 But the key here is where so many denominations have missed it. 532 00:33:19,580 --> 00:33:22,900 These signs will follow those who believe. 533 00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:23,900 Right. 534 00:33:23,900 --> 00:33:25,540 Whose report will you believe? 535 00:33:25,540 --> 00:33:26,540 There you go. 536 00:33:26,540 --> 00:33:32,140 Do you want to go back 2000 years here, read the report of the words of Jesus to those 537 00:33:32,140 --> 00:33:33,140 who believe. 538 00:33:33,140 --> 00:33:39,020 If you believe the Bible, you believe his word, you can believe that speaking in tongues 539 00:33:39,020 --> 00:33:41,460 is of God, it's not of the devil. 540 00:33:41,460 --> 00:33:42,460 Amen. 541 00:33:42,460 --> 00:33:45,900 Because those that speak it's of the devil, they're shooting themselves in the foot. 542 00:33:45,900 --> 00:33:48,540 I mean, that's an expression we use here in America. 543 00:33:48,540 --> 00:33:51,260 I shot myself in the foot, that means you can't do it. 544 00:33:51,260 --> 00:33:55,220 You're jumping around and holding your foot, you can't do nothing, you know. 545 00:33:55,220 --> 00:34:00,900 But they have denominations have literally shot themselves in the foot, totally distracted. 546 00:34:00,900 --> 00:34:03,540 They don't have power to do anything. 547 00:34:03,540 --> 00:34:06,380 They don't have the Holy Spirit moving in them. 548 00:34:06,380 --> 00:34:09,100 They're fighting the very thing that can save them. 549 00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:10,100 That can give them power. 550 00:34:10,100 --> 00:34:11,100 That can give them the power. 551 00:34:11,100 --> 00:34:12,100 Yeah. 552 00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:13,100 And that's the Holy Spirit. 553 00:34:13,100 --> 00:34:14,100 Yeah. 554 00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:20,260 If you have enough faith for salvation, it's the same faith for receiving the Holy Spirit. 555 00:34:20,260 --> 00:34:22,220 It doesn't take any more faith. 556 00:34:22,220 --> 00:34:23,220 It comes as a package. 557 00:34:23,220 --> 00:34:24,220 It's a gift. 558 00:34:24,220 --> 00:34:25,220 It's there. 559 00:34:25,220 --> 00:34:26,220 It's a gift. 560 00:34:26,220 --> 00:34:27,220 Yeah. 561 00:34:27,220 --> 00:34:30,540 I mean, all the gifts of the Spirit, the nine, it talks about the nine fruits of the Spirit. 562 00:34:30,540 --> 00:34:33,380 There's actually more than that, you know, probably. 563 00:34:33,380 --> 00:34:36,780 That's how we categorize them, you know. 564 00:34:36,780 --> 00:34:43,900 But to have the fullness of what God has for you, you really need to believe that God will 565 00:34:43,900 --> 00:34:44,900 give it to you. 566 00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:45,900 Mm hmm. 567 00:34:45,900 --> 00:34:46,900 Yeah. 568 00:34:46,900 --> 00:34:48,500 And then that comes through the Holy Spirit. 569 00:34:48,500 --> 00:34:49,500 Exactly. 570 00:34:49,500 --> 00:34:50,500 Yeah. 571 00:34:50,500 --> 00:34:54,460 When I got filled with the Holy Spirit, you know, I was a teenager, it was during the 572 00:34:54,460 --> 00:34:55,700 charismatic move. 573 00:34:55,700 --> 00:35:01,720 So this is probably about 1969, 68, 67. 574 00:35:01,720 --> 00:35:04,580 This is when it was just starting, I believe, about 67. 575 00:35:04,580 --> 00:35:05,580 Yeah. 576 00:35:05,580 --> 00:35:07,540 You know, Holy Spirit's being poured out. 577 00:35:07,540 --> 00:35:11,240 We're at our camp, youth camp, and the power of God is falling. 578 00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:15,020 People are getting filled with the Holy Spirit, and God just used Malcolm Smith. 579 00:35:15,020 --> 00:35:18,980 He was an amazing man of God and wrote a book on blood covenant. 580 00:35:18,980 --> 00:35:21,820 It was really, really amazing. 581 00:35:21,820 --> 00:35:22,940 And it even surprised him. 582 00:35:22,940 --> 00:35:26,740 And I remember talking to him years later at the Christian Booksellers Convention. 583 00:35:26,740 --> 00:35:28,260 We met him there. 584 00:35:28,260 --> 00:35:30,460 And he says, I remember that camp. 585 00:35:30,460 --> 00:35:33,140 I just flew in from New York, and I was tired. 586 00:35:33,140 --> 00:35:37,420 I said, I want to just preach something easy and then just go rest. 587 00:35:37,420 --> 00:35:40,380 And the power of God just hit, you know. 588 00:35:40,380 --> 00:35:42,620 It's all week it was there. 589 00:35:42,620 --> 00:35:46,740 And I tried and tried to get the Holy Spirit, you know, anything I need, you know. 590 00:35:46,740 --> 00:35:47,740 I never got filled. 591 00:35:47,740 --> 00:35:51,500 And all around me, people are getting filled with the Holy Spirit. 592 00:35:51,500 --> 00:35:53,480 And it never happened to me. 593 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:54,540 And so it happened. 594 00:35:54,540 --> 00:36:01,340 So I was about 12, 22, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, about 14 years later. 595 00:36:01,340 --> 00:36:05,320 You know, and I'm getting prayed for for the Holy Spirit. 596 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,140 And you know, and I'm just out on the floor, you know, and just speaking in tongues. 597 00:36:09,140 --> 00:36:13,260 And when I got filled with the Holy Spirit, you know, it was just such a supernatural 598 00:36:13,260 --> 00:36:14,340 thing. 599 00:36:14,340 --> 00:36:16,700 My mouth was moving all on its own. 600 00:36:16,700 --> 00:36:17,700 And this was coming out. 601 00:36:17,700 --> 00:36:22,580 And I thought this is just a mind blower, you know, because I wasn't trying or nothing. 602 00:36:22,580 --> 00:36:23,580 It just happened. 603 00:36:23,580 --> 00:36:24,580 Yeah, God took over. 604 00:36:24,580 --> 00:36:28,660 God just sovereignly did that for me, you know, and all that. 605 00:36:28,660 --> 00:36:30,500 And that's when I kind of woke. 606 00:36:30,500 --> 00:36:32,180 I came off the floor a while later. 607 00:36:32,180 --> 00:36:34,380 I don't know how long I was down there. 608 00:36:34,380 --> 00:36:36,500 Just staggered over to Sharon. 609 00:36:36,500 --> 00:36:39,180 You know, I said, how'd you like to get engaged? 610 00:36:39,180 --> 00:36:43,620 You know, and I'm half drunk, you know, and she's just I never would have done that in 611 00:36:43,620 --> 00:36:44,620 my right mind. 612 00:36:44,620 --> 00:36:50,620 But God had to do that because he had a speed that he wanted things to work at. 613 00:36:50,620 --> 00:36:54,000 And we couldn't let, you know, time and get in the way. 614 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,460 So God just God just did that for me. 615 00:36:57,460 --> 00:36:58,980 Yeah, yeah. 616 00:36:58,980 --> 00:37:01,100 And sometimes that's the way it happens. 617 00:37:01,100 --> 00:37:06,100 Sometimes people just get that kind of a download where, boom, it hits. 618 00:37:06,100 --> 00:37:07,500 Now, how about your dad? 619 00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:08,500 Oh, my dad. 620 00:37:08,500 --> 00:37:12,100 Yeah, he was trying to get filled with the Holy Spirit. 621 00:37:12,100 --> 00:37:13,340 And it didn't happen. 622 00:37:13,340 --> 00:37:16,260 But he woke up in the night and all of a sudden just praying in tongues. 623 00:37:16,260 --> 00:37:21,660 Yeah, after after seeking the baptism of the Holy Spirit for months and months and months, 624 00:37:21,660 --> 00:37:23,700 he woke up in the night. 625 00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:25,660 He woke himself up speaking in tongues. 626 00:37:25,660 --> 00:37:26,660 That's amazing. 627 00:37:26,660 --> 00:37:28,700 And you know, you have nothing to do with it. 628 00:37:28,700 --> 00:37:29,700 Yeah. 629 00:37:29,700 --> 00:37:33,740 But now for me, when I was prayed for to receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit, it was the 630 00:37:33,740 --> 00:37:36,420 first I'd heard that there was such a thing. 631 00:37:36,420 --> 00:37:37,660 I didn't even know about it. 632 00:37:37,660 --> 00:37:42,720 You know, I was raised kind of in Baptist, kind of evangelical church. 633 00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:44,980 My dad was Dutch Reformed. 634 00:37:44,980 --> 00:37:47,660 And this wasn't part of our paradigm. 635 00:37:47,660 --> 00:37:51,220 And so I heard somebody speaking in tongues. 636 00:37:51,220 --> 00:37:53,580 Well, I knew that she had been to Russia. 637 00:37:53,580 --> 00:37:57,100 So I was assuming that she had learned to speak Russian. 638 00:37:57,100 --> 00:37:58,820 And I didn't know. 639 00:37:58,820 --> 00:38:03,740 And whoever prayed for me, you know, they explained that that this baptism in the Holy 640 00:38:03,740 --> 00:38:07,260 Spirit would give you the gift of speaking in tongues. 641 00:38:07,260 --> 00:38:13,140 And I was told, just start praising the Lord in your own language. 642 00:38:13,140 --> 00:38:19,920 And the more you praise, you're going to run out of words because our God is so great and 643 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,860 so wonderful. 644 00:38:21,860 --> 00:38:23,700 And that's exactly what happened. 645 00:38:23,700 --> 00:38:26,980 I just began to speak in tongues because I had run out of words. 646 00:38:26,980 --> 00:38:29,100 A lot of words. 647 00:38:29,100 --> 00:38:34,100 I remember hearing someone in prayer line, we were praying for people to receive the 648 00:38:34,100 --> 00:38:35,740 baptism. 649 00:38:35,740 --> 00:38:38,460 And she said to this person, you have to get out of your head. 650 00:38:38,460 --> 00:38:39,460 Oh, yeah. 651 00:38:39,460 --> 00:38:44,340 I thought, oh, that is so good because you can't think about this as a natural thing 652 00:38:44,340 --> 00:38:46,380 because it's a supernatural thing. 653 00:38:46,380 --> 00:38:47,380 Exactly. 654 00:38:47,380 --> 00:38:51,300 And so you just have to throw all your reasoning out the window and all your questions and 655 00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:52,300 all that. 656 00:38:52,300 --> 00:38:53,300 Yeah. 657 00:38:53,300 --> 00:38:56,140 And just kind of like you say, just praise God and just. 658 00:38:56,140 --> 00:38:57,140 Yes. 659 00:38:57,140 --> 00:38:59,700 You know, and just start praising and. 660 00:38:59,700 --> 00:39:00,700 Yes. 661 00:39:00,700 --> 00:39:01,700 Boom. 662 00:39:01,700 --> 00:39:06,580 So if you already have the baptism in the Holy Spirit and you're not praying in tongues 663 00:39:06,580 --> 00:39:12,900 as much as you want to, or maybe you just have a few syllables and you just repeat that 664 00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:15,300 same thing over and over again. 665 00:39:15,300 --> 00:39:23,420 Just think about how in heaven, the angels are saying, holy, holy, holy, holy. 666 00:39:23,420 --> 00:39:24,740 And that's all they're saying. 667 00:39:24,740 --> 00:39:25,740 Yeah. 668 00:39:25,740 --> 00:39:29,980 And maybe, maybe you're saying something like that and it's OK that you're just saying a 669 00:39:29,980 --> 00:39:35,620 few syllables, but there is more and you can have more and you can trust God to speak through 670 00:39:35,620 --> 00:39:40,220 you more and just lean into him, lean into him. 671 00:39:40,220 --> 00:39:44,540 But if you haven't received yet, and we're going to pray for you in a moment, if you 672 00:39:44,540 --> 00:39:53,260 haven't received yet, you need to understand this, that when you were saved, what you couldn't 673 00:39:53,260 --> 00:39:57,940 have been saved without the activity of the Holy Spirit in you. 674 00:39:57,940 --> 00:40:06,460 But know this, that Jesus said in Luke 11, 9 through 13, he said, So I say to you, ask 675 00:40:06,460 --> 00:40:08,540 and it will be given to you. 676 00:40:08,540 --> 00:40:10,500 Seek and you will find. 677 00:40:10,500 --> 00:40:13,580 Knock and it will be opened to you. 678 00:40:13,580 --> 00:40:20,300 For everyone who asks receives and he who seeks finds and to him who knocks, it will 679 00:40:20,300 --> 00:40:21,720 be opened. 680 00:40:21,720 --> 00:40:27,740 If a son asked for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? 681 00:40:27,740 --> 00:40:34,180 Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead, instead of a fish? 682 00:40:34,180 --> 00:40:37,940 Or if he asks for an egg, will he give him a scorpion? 683 00:40:37,940 --> 00:40:43,940 If you then being evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will 684 00:40:43,940 --> 00:40:49,260 your heavenly father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him? 685 00:40:49,260 --> 00:40:51,220 So it's a done deal. 686 00:40:51,220 --> 00:40:52,620 He's going to give it to you. 687 00:40:52,620 --> 00:40:54,340 He wants to give it to you. 688 00:40:54,340 --> 00:40:59,620 He wants you to have it because he wants you to be able to communicate with him in a deeper, 689 00:40:59,620 --> 00:41:07,660 more intimate way and co-operate with him, work with him, co-labor with him in the earth, 690 00:41:07,660 --> 00:41:13,020 connected to heaven, just like Jesus taught his disciples to pray on earth as it is in 691 00:41:13,020 --> 00:41:14,100 heaven. 692 00:41:14,100 --> 00:41:19,680 Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven as we pray in tongues, 693 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:25,380 as we pray with the Holy Spirit, we're speaking on earth what needs to be spoken to make it 694 00:41:25,380 --> 00:41:27,420 come to pass. 695 00:41:27,420 --> 00:41:30,920 Just like when God said, let there be light and there was light. 696 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,700 It's a freebie from the Holy Spirit. 697 00:41:32,700 --> 00:41:33,700 Yes, yes. 698 00:41:33,700 --> 00:41:35,740 But we're designed, we're predestined. 699 00:41:35,740 --> 00:41:40,260 This is part of being conformed to the son of God. 700 00:41:40,260 --> 00:41:44,540 Just like, remember we talked about groaning in the spirit. 701 00:41:44,540 --> 00:41:45,660 Groaning in the spirit. 702 00:41:45,660 --> 00:41:47,820 Jesus groaned. 703 00:41:47,820 --> 00:41:50,500 Remember at Lazarus' tomb. 704 00:41:50,500 --> 00:42:01,140 So let's pray, but understand that you speak in faith, you start making sounds in faith, 705 00:42:01,140 --> 00:42:06,020 just like when you said in faith, Jesus, come and be my savior, come and live in my heart. 706 00:42:06,020 --> 00:42:07,880 And he came. 707 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:15,780 In faith, you start to make sounds and trust that the Holy Spirit is going to turn that 708 00:42:15,780 --> 00:42:19,500 into a language that he is going to speak through you. 709 00:42:19,500 --> 00:42:24,860 You do the speaking, it's your tongue, it's your vocal cords, it's your will that you 710 00:42:24,860 --> 00:42:31,840 are applying to give to the Holy Spirit and trust that that Holy Spirit coming up in through 711 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:37,660 you is going to bubble up like springs of living water out of your belly. 712 00:42:37,660 --> 00:42:38,660 Yes. 713 00:42:38,660 --> 00:42:39,660 Amen. 714 00:42:39,660 --> 00:42:41,380 Rivers, rivers of living water. 715 00:42:41,380 --> 00:42:42,380 Hallelujah. 716 00:42:42,380 --> 00:42:43,380 Hallelujah. 717 00:42:43,380 --> 00:42:47,620 In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we are praying for our listeners right now. 718 00:42:47,620 --> 00:42:54,100 And for those who need to come up in the amount that they are speaking, Lord, we bless them 719 00:42:54,100 --> 00:43:01,660 to receive right now, right now, to receive of your spirit in a greater measure and an 720 00:43:01,660 --> 00:43:06,460 outpouring that they've never experienced before, that they're going to go deeper into 721 00:43:06,460 --> 00:43:09,980 your word, that they're going to go deeper in your understanding of your word, you're 722 00:43:09,980 --> 00:43:15,580 going to start opening your word to them in amazing ways, and they're going to be able 723 00:43:15,580 --> 00:43:21,420 to increase in the amount of speaking in tongues and they're going to pray things that they 724 00:43:21,420 --> 00:43:22,780 don't know how to pray. 725 00:43:22,780 --> 00:43:25,980 They can pray for their families, they can pray for their loved ones, they can pray for 726 00:43:25,980 --> 00:43:31,780 their nations and nations of the world that your kingdom will come on earth as it is in 727 00:43:31,780 --> 00:43:32,780 heaven. 728 00:43:32,780 --> 00:43:40,180 For those who have not yet received, just receive it right now, receive this Holy Spirit. 729 00:43:40,180 --> 00:43:44,020 Father, we're asking you to baptize that listener right now. 730 00:43:44,020 --> 00:43:45,020 Yes, Father. 731 00:43:45,020 --> 00:43:46,020 Thank you, Father. 732 00:43:46,020 --> 00:43:47,020 Pour your spirit. 733 00:43:47,020 --> 00:43:50,980 Just, you know, Jesus breathed on his disciples and said, receive the Holy Ghost. 734 00:43:50,980 --> 00:43:55,100 So if Jesus exhaled, what did they have to do to receive? 735 00:43:55,100 --> 00:43:57,040 They just had to inhale. 736 00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,140 And that's what happened on the day of Pentecost. 737 00:43:59,140 --> 00:44:03,820 There was a great inhalation of the fire of God coming down on them. 738 00:44:03,820 --> 00:44:10,900 So receive of that fire right now, receive of that anointing and begin to give him your 739 00:44:10,900 --> 00:44:13,500 lips, give him your sounds. 740 00:44:13,500 --> 00:44:21,900 Just start making sounds and give him those sounds and let him form them into words, into 741 00:44:21,900 --> 00:44:27,980 a language that will begin to uncover mysteries, that will begin to build you up in your spirit, 742 00:44:27,980 --> 00:44:35,380 that will begin to build you up in your relationship with him and transform that whole atmosphere 743 00:44:35,380 --> 00:44:40,820 around you that will drive out the devil, that will bring the glory of God into your 744 00:44:40,820 --> 00:44:42,600 life like you've never known before. 745 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:43,900 Just receive it right now. 746 00:44:43,900 --> 00:44:44,900 Breathe it in. 747 00:44:44,900 --> 00:44:45,900 Hallelujah. 748 00:44:45,900 --> 00:44:46,900 Hallelujah. 749 00:44:46,900
