1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,000
So Lord move me behind the cross so that the words that come forth will be pleasing unto you. Amen.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:21,000
We had a week in the Lord didn't we? Yesterday, spread it all. Thank you Uxers for ushering.

3
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Appreciate the service. Miss Marriott and the Senior Choir, thank you for your words of great song.

4
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:37,000
And thank you for all who have participated this week.

5
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Gwen May I appreciate your service with me this morning.

6
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:48,000
And Communion stewards, though your job is forthcoming, I thank you for what you put in before,

7
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:55,000
what you put in during, and what you put in afterwards. Amen.

8
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,000
It's February the 6th and we're preparing for yet another great season in the Lord.

9
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:13,000
We're looking for Lent. And many of you will say, well, we know about Lent so we're so excited.

10
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Well, a lot of times the things that come into the season, because we're not actively involved in certain things,

11
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:27,000
we don't necessarily know all the history. We don't know what comes behind the season.

12
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:36,000
And sometimes we say, well, I'll let them handle that. That's what they like to do.

13
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:44,000
But we're coming up on a great season, the season that truly, if we have to say,

14
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:51,000
creates the foundation of why we are Christians and what it means to know Jesus Christ.

15
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:57,000
That's what we're coming up upon. Amen. This is it.

16
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:06,000
And so at this time of great season we're also looking at what happened before Jesus came to the cross.

17
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:14,000
And our scripture today from the book of Matthew highlights a transfiguration experience.

18
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,000
And so I start this message this morning with the simple thing that says,

19
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,000
did you hear what I heard and did you see what I saw?

20
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Ask your neighbor, did you? Did you hear what I heard? Did you see what I saw?

21
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Well, you see a lot of things are going on.

22
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:51,000
And sometimes things happen and you just say, let me take my glasses off because maybe I can see it better.

23
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000
And for those of us who really have worn glasses for a long time in our lives,

24
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:02,000
we know we can take off our glasses from time to time and say, I think I can hear better now.

25
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:08,000
We have decided that our hearing and our seeing are intricately connected.

26
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000
I don't know whether there's a little nerve behind our ears or something.

27
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:17,000
We say, I think I can hear better now because I've taken my glasses off.

28
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:25,000
And we ought to be saying, I can see better now, but it's just we think and do these kind of things.

29
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:33,000
The disciples had an encounter on top of the mountain.

30
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000
And we know about a lot of mountaintop experiences,

31
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:47,000
but it's interesting that this particular passage of Scripture begins with an action.

32
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:54,000
I want to read what it says right there in the beginning because you might have missed it when we read it.

33
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:01,000
It says, after six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and his brother James,

34
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:07,000
and led them up the mountain after six days.

35
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:15,000
So the passage already starts in action, and I encourage you to look back and read chapter 16,

36
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:22,000
but I want to just highlight these couple verses so it can kind of help us understand what was going on

37
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,000
that they had waited these six days for.

38
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:35,000
So you see on verse 16, 16, Matthew 16, 16 says, Simon Peter answered God, answered Jesus,

39
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,000
and he says, you are the Christ, you are the Son of the living God.

40
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,000
And the important thing was there was a revelation that had taken place.

41
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000
And it had taken place in the region of Zechariah and Philippi.

42
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,000
They had been traveling on their spiritual journey.

43
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000
They were walking with God.

44
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,000
The disciples were already walking with Jesus, and all of a sudden after six days.

45
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Do you remember anything else in the Bible that happened after six days?

46
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Let's go back to the book of Genesis.

47
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:14,000
After six days, God rested because he had created the world.

48
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:21,000
After six days, if we look at Moses, he had spent some time waiting on Jesus,

49
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:28,000
but after six days on the seventh day, Jesus spoke to him and led him into forty days and forty nights.

50
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:37,000
So think about six days and think about mountaintop experiences.

51
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,000
There's a challenge that Jesus gives right to the disciples immediately on the mountaintop

52
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,000
because he says, I'll let you know something early.

53
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,000
Now I need to confirm what's going on.

54
00:05:51,000 --> 00:06:09,000
So you're at the highest point at the top of a mountain with the greatest man in the world, Jesus Christ.

55
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:15,000
And then you turn around and you see there's Moses right there.

56
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,000
And there's Elijah right there.

57
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:23,000
And there's three of the greatest people on the mountain.

58
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Do you remember something?

59
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Did you see that?

60
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Did you see that?

61
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Did you see that?

62
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,000
And maybe if we put it in the context of African Americans,

63
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,000
maybe instead of being Moses, it would be Herod the Permanent.

64
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,000
And maybe instead of it being Elijah, it was Dr. Martin Luther King.

65
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:54,000
He was again on the mountaintop with Jesus Christ.

66
00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Do you remember doing this with that greatness of humanity?

67
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:08,000
And then there's a word that comes forth out of the clouds in the midst of it all.

68
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:18,000
Suddenly, Jesus said, this is my time.

69
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,000
Do my love.

70
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Before I'm involved, please.

71
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
And I'm not saying we don't love our daughters and we don't love our children,

72
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:31,000
but I mean can you imagine being in that crowd?

73
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,000
That's enough to make you say, did you see that?

74
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Did you hear that?

75
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Did you hear that voice that said, excuse me, this is my son.

76
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,000
Who I love.

77
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,000
And I'm well pleased.

78
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Well, if you even turn over and look at the verses in 2 Peter that were written,

79
00:07:53,000 --> 00:08:01,000
the same thing comes forth because there's an important notice being sent out to the disciples.

80
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Hey, I'm going to show you something.

81
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,000
And I'm going to show you it before I go to the cross.

82
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:15,000
I'm going to show you it before humanity kills me for the evil and for the sins of the world.

83
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,000
I'm going to show you something early.

84
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:24,000
But after you see it, you can ask each other, did you see it?

85
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:32,000
We could hear it, but we can't tell anybody until the Son of Man rises yet again.

86
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:38,000
There are good news, that's the challenge.

87
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:44,000
Again, imagine yourself on the top of a mountain with the greatest of grace,

88
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Moses, Elijah, and Jesus Christ.

89
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:55,000
And God reveals to you right at that moment.

90
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,000
Don't worry about the conversation with Moses.

91
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,000
Don't worry about what he's talking to Elijah and Moses about,

92
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:11,000
because I've got something to tell you that's going to affirm what you already heard, Peter, back on Matthew 16.

93
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Yeah, you know this is the Son of Man.

94
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,000
This is the Son of the Living God.

95
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:21,000
But yet, you still, I need you to hear me.

96
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:27,000
This is my son, whom I love.

97
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,000
And I'm well pleased.

98
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,000
Listen to me.

99
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,000
This passage evolves in a variety of different ways.

100
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,000
There's a mountain experience, they go up on the top of the mountain.

101
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,000
Then there's a conversation and a revelation.

102
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:48,000
And then they come back down the mountain and Jesus says, shh.

103
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:53,000
I know what you saw, but I need to give you a little teachable moment here.

104
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Don't tell anybody what you see.

105
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:11,000
Don't tell anybody what you just saw with your boy or nine until the Son of Man has been raised.

106
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:21,000
On Transfiguration Sunday, on Black History Month Sunday, on the beginning of this journey of life, why is this important?

107
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,000
I'm glad you're here.

108
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,000
I mean, some of you are just sitting there with expectations.

109
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,000
It wouldn't mean to me.

110
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:33,000
I've already turned on WIFM and I'm trying to figure it out.

111
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,000
It's my station. What's doing it for me?

112
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Why is it such a big hoo-ha-ha?

113
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:51,000
Well, it's a big hoo-ha-ha because Jesus has shown us all. Exactly what's going to happen.

114
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Exactly what is going to be happening through His life.

115
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,000
He shows the disciples and we are His disciples.

116
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Lord knows we've seen the prophetic announcement.

117
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,000
We've seen it inside out.

118
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:10,000
God has shown me something that you need to turn around and say, did you see that?

119
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,000
I better believe it.

120
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:23,000
He told us. He showed us. He has told us. And He has shown us.

121
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:35,000
It's a great moment where the experience is embraced in a crowd.

122
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,000
And a voice comes from on high.

123
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,000
I'm speaking right now to my teenagers and my young people.

124
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,000
Can you hear that voice come from the second floor in your house?

125
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,000
You know you should have taken care of something.

126
00:11:52,000 --> 00:12:01,000
And they give you a heads up and they say, I'm giving you one more chance to take care of that stuff.

127
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:07,000
But some of us who work on tenuous jobs where every time we have a supervisor that changes their mind,

128
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:13,000
you can hear that voice from another home that says, handle that.

129
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Be accountable because what's getting ready to come down, I don't want you to take the blame.

130
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:29,000
And maybe you've been in an organization and God has revealed to you a new plan and a new direction and a new vision

131
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,000
and you're not sure what it means. You want to turn around and ask somebody.

132
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:40,000
The God says, I've already told you. I've already shown you.

133
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:46,000
I'm giving you the heads up.

134
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:51,000
Where I want to focus this message is not that the revelation didn't take place.

135
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Not that transfiguration wasn't important.

136
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:58,000
And not that Moses and Elijah didn't play a critical piece.

137
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:05,000
But I want you to look with me right there between verses six and eight.

138
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Jesus gave some instructions.

139
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:16,000
When Jesus gives instructions, when God has a voice on high and tells you something that's really important,

140
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,000
I want to say to you, did you hear what he said?

141
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,000
Did you see what you saw?

142
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Can you acknowledge by faith that that's the truth?

143
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:33,000
And then when he reaches down and says, get up, don't be afraid.

144
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:38,000
He's giving you a proclamation and a declaration to step out by faith.

145
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:44,000
He's asking us to walk with him and to talk with him and to go up the mountainside

146
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:49,000
and to journey with him on our faithfulness and then come back down the mountainside.

147
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:55,000
And even though we've had a glorious experience on the top of the hill, he says, come down off of the hill.

148
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:00,000
But the point is, get up.

149
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:09,000
Have any of you known, talked to him out of fear and not been able to move?

150
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,000
And it's not a point to hear.

151
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,000
Get up.

152
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Just get up.

153
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,000
You know who I am.

154
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,000
You know my voice.

155
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000
You know what I've done for you.

156
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,000
Get up.

157
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,000
Don't get hung up on the clock.

158
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,000
Don't get hung up on Moses and Elijah.

159
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,000
Get up.

160
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Because the Lord has already spoken and said, this is my son.

161
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,000
I've already identified who he is.

162
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,000
I've already shown you he's both the son of God and the son of man.

163
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:52,000
He is a living, divine being like none other.

164
00:14:52,000 --> 00:15:00,000
Believe me when I say, get up.

165
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,000
So the question I asked you this morning,

166
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:09,000
when you climb up the mountain, walking hand in hand with Jesus Christ,

167
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:16,000
where he leads you, where you go.

168
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:20,000
We have great ancestors.

169
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:26,000
And I've got to believe that some of them spent some time on the mountain.

170
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:31,000
Because in order for us to be living today, look around the room.

171
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,000
We are beautiful people.

172
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,000
We are intelligent people.

173
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,000
We are an awesome and peculiar people.

174
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:48,000
But it's because of the grace and the anointing and the belief that we can climb the mountain.

175
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Will you get up?

176
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:56,000
Will you climb the mountain because Jesus said climb?

177
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:07,000
Or will you lay prostrate on the ground, fearful of what God is going to bring forth?

178
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:15,000
Will you be so inclined not to do that you miss your blessing?

179
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:21,000
Will you get high rock in what we have in Christ?

180
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,000
Our feast.

181
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,000
So I ask this morning, not only will you climb the mountain,

182
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:34,000
but will you get to the top of the mountain with Jesus Christ?

183
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Will you believe?

184
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:44,000
Not only will you believe, but will you believe with excitement?

185
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,000
Will you believe with enthusiasm?

186
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Will you believe with the spirit of a living Savior?

187
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:59,000
Or will you be held hostage by somebody else's news?

188
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Will you be hostage by what they shared on Channel 4?

189
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Will you be hostage by the bickering at the Port Arthur City Hall?

190
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:21,000
Will you be hostage by your own uncertainty?

191
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,000
Or will you get up?

192
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,000
St. Paul is a great church.

193
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,000
St. Paul is a church with great lineage.

194
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:38,000
St. Paul is a church that has lived through a million change.

195
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:45,000
I was doing some research on the method of the Episcopal Church and I looked up and I said to myself,

196
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,000
a lot of things went on here.

197
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,000
A lot of great meetings, a lot of great events, a lot of great people.

198
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:57,000
But the greatest thing was there was always a spirit of openness.

199
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,000
A willingness for our bodies to be utilized to share with our community.

200
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,000
Not only the gifts that we have, but willingness to say,

201
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:13,000
what I hear, you can hear it, you can vote here, you can have a voter registration lobby,

202
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:18,000
you can be active here.

203
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:24,000
So St. Paul is a body who has already answered the question that we're going to walk with John, with Jesus.

204
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,000
We have already answered that question.

205
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:32,000
Collectively we have committed to going to the next phase of the 21st century,

206
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,000
doing a new thing, putting behind us the past,

207
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,000
acknowledging the great things about who Jesus Christ is,

208
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,000
but picking up the walk.

209
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:49,000
We're not laying on the floor, stretched out in fear.

210
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:57,000
We have decided to walk this journey.

211
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:02,000
A lot of people have had great mountaintop experiences,

212
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,000
but they haven't been able to live day to day.

213
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Because they have failed to answer the question, will they believe the truth?

214
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,000
And then after they fail to look at that question,

215
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,000
they refuse to hear what Peter said.

216
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,000
They refuse to move on to spiritual maturity.

217
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:32,000
They refuse to acknowledge that the gift of walking down the mountain is not letting go of God's hand,

218
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:39,000
but the gift of walking down the mountain is believing what they saw, accepting what they heard,

219
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:45,000
and be willing to take off.

220
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:50,000
Singing for Jesus Christ.

221
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:54,000
We all know Peter denied Jesus,

222
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,000
but the church was built on a rock.

223
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:06,000
We all know about human frailty, and disappointment, and challenges, and sadness,

224
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,000
but what about the joy of the Lord?

225
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:18,000
What about the worry that God is about that knowing Jesus Christ for ourselves?

226
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:23,000
My grandmother used to say, if you know that you know that you know that you know, you don't have to worry about it.

227
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:28,000
So I'm just asking you to know and believe what went on on the mountaintop.

228
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,000
Take it with you everywhere you go.

229
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:36,000
When you get down in your spirit, you go, oh, I don't think I can do that.

230
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:43,000
Go to the Scriptures. See what it's worth.

231
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:49,000
And then the last thing I'll say to you, Jesus gave his people a great vision.

232
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,000
And it was a vision that had challenges in it.

233
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
Nobody wants to see the Savior killed.

234
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:06,000
Nobody wants to believe at that point that he will be crucified.

235
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,000
Nobody!

236
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:13,000
That's not what we want to know, Jesus.

237
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:20,000
But he is crucified for our sin.

238
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,000
He is the Son of the Living God.

239
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,000
He rises on the third day.

240
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:34,000
He becomes all that he says he would be and what we see on the top of the mountain.

241
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:39,000
It becomes more than just a revelation. It becomes a reality.

242
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,000
It becomes a thought of life. It becomes what we understand.

243
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,000
But more than that, our faith is crystallized.

244
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:54,000
Our faith becomes a true understanding that Jesus is Lord.

245
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:01,000
That he is the Saviour, Messiah, and great one in our lives.

246
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,000
And what is that songwriter saying?

247
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:13,000
He walks with me and he talks with me and he tells me that I'm with God.

248
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,000
I share this last tidbit.

249
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,000
Everybody deserves a mountain experience with Jesus Christ.

250
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:27,000
I invite you the next time Jesus says, come up and go to the mountain with me.

251
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,000
You don't know who you're going to see on the top of the mountain.

252
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:37,000
You might experience your mama or your grandmama or your cousin or great mother that has gone over the face.

253
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,000
You don't know who's going to fuck you up there on the mountain.

254
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,000
But I highly recommend you get a moment with Jesus.

255
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:49,000
Come on up to the mountain. Bring Jesus in.

256
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,000
Who are you?

257
00:22:52,000 --> 00:23:00,000
Ask yourself, did you see what you saw and did you hear what you heard?

258
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:04,000
Take your glasses off if you have to.

259
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:09,000
Check when we went up to the mountain with you.

260
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,000
But be obedient when you see the vision.

261
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Don't look to your left. Don't look to your left.

262
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,000
Don't get fearful. Don't get thoughtful.

263
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Just have a walk with Jesus all the way.

264
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,000
I think that will touch me where it needs to touch.

265
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,000
I will be all across the mountain.

266
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:32,000
I have a thought, a world that he thought he was a pissing monster.

267
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,000
For who I am pleased and grateful of.

268
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,000
All hallelujah.

269
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000
I can talk about Jesus.

270
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:44,000
He walked with me, baby. All hallelujah.

271
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,000
All hallelujah.

272
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,000
And you don't know him yet.

273
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,000
Here's your opportunity.

274
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Touch the vision.

275
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,000
See the experience.

276
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Let the Lord show you something.

277
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:04,000
But when you see it, ask yourself, did I see what I saw?

278
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Did I hear what I heard?

279
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:10,000
I accept. I believe.

280
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,000
I know and I cannot doubt.

281
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:22,000
Because he is both the Son of God and the Son of God.

282
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Praise be to God.

283
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:29,000
For he is a risen Savior and an awesome wonder.

284
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,000
He's your Father. He's my Father.

285
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,000
He is the great I am.

286
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,000
In the name of Jesus, hallelujah.

287
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000
I will shout it over him.

288
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,000
Amen. Amen.

289
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,000
Let us stand and say in our heaven preparation,

290
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,000
I want Jesus to walk with me.

291
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000
Thank you.

292
00:24:51,000 --> 00:25:04,000
All hallelujah.
