WEBVTT 00:00:15.210 --> 00:00:18.570 I want to give reverence to the Father, King 00:00:18.570 --> 00:00:22.230 Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Let's give honor 00:00:22.230 --> 00:00:32.530 to your pastor and to his precious wife. Let's 00:00:32.530 --> 00:00:42.719 give honor to all the ministry staff. And give 00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:45.119 a hand clap for your neighbor also if you don't 00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:53.460 mind. How many of you were here either Friday, 00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:58.219 Thursday, Friday, or earlier today? Raise your 00:00:58.219 --> 00:01:02.299 hands. Praise the Lord. Give yourselves another 00:01:02.299 --> 00:01:11.260 hand clap. So if you have your Bible. or your 00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:19.540 iPad, or your phone, or your eyes. Turn to 1 00:01:19.540 --> 00:01:25.620 John 2, verse 27. And at 7 .08, I want to try 00:01:25.620 --> 00:01:30.459 to be good tonight. Notice I didn't say I was. 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:37.859 I said I was going to try. One night, I went 00:01:37.859 --> 00:01:40.379 to bed. That's a good thing to do at night, I 00:01:40.379 --> 00:01:47.540 guess. And I dreamed this scripture. But the 00:01:47.540 --> 00:01:49.819 anointing which you received of Jesus lives in 00:01:49.819 --> 00:01:53.659 you. And John is saying that there were false 00:01:53.659 --> 00:01:55.239 teachers and you don't need to listen to them 00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:58.579 because you don't need any of those folks to 00:01:58.579 --> 00:02:00.400 teach you, but as the same anointing teaches 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.159 you concerning all things, and the anointing 00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:06.640 is true and is not a lie, just as the anointing, 00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:09.930 the Holy Spirit, has taught you, live in Jesus. 00:02:11.889 --> 00:02:17.550 Now, the anointing, the Holy Spirit, he wants 00:02:17.550 --> 00:02:21.629 to do more than make you feel good. I mean, he 00:02:21.629 --> 00:02:24.569 does want to make you feel good sometimes. Sometimes 00:02:24.569 --> 00:02:28.469 you need to feel good. But the anointing of the 00:02:28.469 --> 00:02:34.830 Holy Spirit, the holy anointing oil, is very 00:02:34.830 --> 00:02:41.110 functional. And very practical. Even when you 00:02:41.110 --> 00:02:44.810 look at persons anointed by God in the old covenant. 00:02:46.509 --> 00:02:53.310 You see. That there is benefit. I think we use 00:02:53.310 --> 00:02:58.889 this example about. Isaac. Finding himself in 00:02:58.889 --> 00:03:03.189 a famine in Genesis 26. And the word of the Lord 00:03:03.189 --> 00:03:08.780 the truth. God's Holy Spirit. Speaks to him and 00:03:08.780 --> 00:03:11.500 says, I know you were thinking about going down 00:03:11.500 --> 00:03:15.139 into Egypt, but I'm telling you, stay right here. 00:03:16.500 --> 00:03:19.199 And he sold in that land and he got a hundredfold 00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:25.080 return. That tells me that the anointing of the 00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:29.560 Holy Spirit in your life can guide you and direct 00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:43.080 you in your profession or in your career. if 00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:47.759 you're able to do well financially, it will bless 00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:55.340 your spouse. They will like the money. Your kids, 00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.860 if you're older, your grandkids, your family 00:03:59.860 --> 00:04:05.759 members, your friends. Because here's the statement 00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:09.740 I want to really leave with you. And you're going 00:04:09.740 --> 00:04:12.770 to memorize this statement. And maybe you can 00:04:12.770 --> 00:04:17.189 now quote it. If it's not practical, it's not 00:04:17.189 --> 00:04:24.790 spiritual. So when you look at the anointing 00:04:24.790 --> 00:04:28.930 of God, the presence of the Lord, in Abraham 00:04:28.930 --> 00:04:35.829 and Isaac and Jacob and then in Joseph, this 00:04:35.829 --> 00:04:39.970 anointing that's in the life of Joseph was to 00:04:39.970 --> 00:04:48.189 perceive. Hard times are coming and we need to 00:04:48.189 --> 00:04:51.810 hold back 20 % because we're going to have seven 00:04:51.810 --> 00:04:56.029 years of plenty and then seven years of famine 00:04:56.029 --> 00:05:01.790 and we need to get ready for the future. He was 00:05:01.790 --> 00:05:05.750 living from the future. The Holy Spirit, the 00:05:05.750 --> 00:05:08.709 anointing, that holy anointing oil enables you 00:05:08.709 --> 00:05:11.550 to live from the future. Prepare now so that 00:05:11.550 --> 00:05:14.240 when the future comes. Not only do you have everything 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:19.339 you need, but you have overflow. Does there anybody 00:05:19.339 --> 00:05:28.500 here that would like to have some overflow? And 00:05:28.500 --> 00:05:33.439 so because of that light that he walked in, because 00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:36.620 the Holy Spirit, the anointing always brings 00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:38.660 light because it brings the word and the interest 00:05:38.660 --> 00:05:41.160 of your word brings light. And in your light, 00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:47.879 we see light. and the Lord is my light, he was 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:56.139 able to save the nation of Egypt and the sons 00:05:56.139 --> 00:06:02.160 of Israel. See, I want you to take the anointing 00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:11.040 beyond church. The anointing is not just for 00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:14.389 here. You come here, you get mourned on it, and 00:06:14.389 --> 00:06:16.250 you take it out there and you bless your spouse, 00:06:16.410 --> 00:06:18.689 you bless your kids, you bless your grandkids, 00:06:18.870 --> 00:06:23.329 you bless your community. Make sense to you? 00:06:24.029 --> 00:06:34.589 Okay. I appreciated what this brother said about 00:06:34.589 --> 00:06:39.629 Peter's eyes, his spiritual perception was so 00:06:39.629 --> 00:06:44.240 great. that he was able to discern the angel 00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:49.779 of the Lord, and he was taken out of confinement. 00:06:51.339 --> 00:06:57.540 Now, I know that's Peter, but where do you feel 00:06:57.540 --> 00:07:06.300 trapped or confined or restricted or contained 00:07:06.300 --> 00:07:09.180 where you need spiritual perception as the result 00:07:09.180 --> 00:07:12.500 of the anointing? where something can open for 00:07:12.500 --> 00:07:18.000 you and you have a freedom and a liberty you 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:23.019 didn't have before. In fact, if I was to give 00:07:23.019 --> 00:07:26.759 this message a title, I would call it How to 00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:40.439 Increase Your Spiritual Perception. So, I have 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:43.639 to do something because, you know, I have this 00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.360 thing where I always got to bring you back to 00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:51.959 Jesus. So that's what I'm going to do. Because 00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:54.560 that's what the Holy Spirit would want me to 00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:56.540 do. The Holy Spirit always testifies of Jesus 00:07:56.540 --> 00:07:59.160 and the Father always testifies of Jesus. And 00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:01.540 if I testify of Jesus, I'll have the approval 00:08:01.540 --> 00:08:04.540 of the Father and the Holy Ghost. And I'll have 00:08:04.540 --> 00:08:09.500 God with me. And I have preached by myself before. 00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:15.439 It didn't work out so well. So John's Gospel, 00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:30.379 chapter 1, verse 36. When you get there, it will 00:08:30.379 --> 00:08:36.320 say this. Behold. That's what the prophet, the 00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:41.480 forerunner says. Behold the Lamb of God. For 00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:43.639 some reason, because the Spirit of God in his 00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:48.820 life, he was able to see who Jesus was. What's 00:08:48.820 --> 00:08:54.059 interesting about this word, behold, this is 00:08:54.059 --> 00:09:00.200 important. It means to look, to stare, to probe, 00:09:00.460 --> 00:09:06.690 and to fix your gaze. Behold and keep beholding 00:09:06.690 --> 00:09:11.850 the Lamb of God. That means spiritual perception 00:09:11.850 --> 00:09:17.129 begins with looking at and looking to the Lord 00:09:17.129 --> 00:09:21.350 Jesus. That means spiritual perception or seeing 00:09:21.350 --> 00:09:25.470 in the Holy Spirit is first about getting to 00:09:25.470 --> 00:09:31.289 know the Father and Jesus more than before. Ultimately, 00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:36.340 The whole purpose of spiritual perception or 00:09:36.340 --> 00:09:38.480 to see in the Holy Spirit is to get to know Jesus 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:50.279 and the Father. Now, how? Well, it's not as hard 00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:56.740 as people think. I'm basically lazy. And sometimes 00:09:56.740 --> 00:10:00.419 I don't feel like reading my Bible. So there's 00:10:00.419 --> 00:10:07.250 something called YouTube. And so, you know, I'll 00:10:07.250 --> 00:10:13.149 just go YouTube the Gospel of John, sit down 00:10:13.149 --> 00:10:16.929 or lie down, and just let somebody read to me. 00:10:18.070 --> 00:10:21.190 Just like mama read to you when you was a child. 00:10:22.809 --> 00:10:30.110 Everybody say, baby Kemp. And so if something 00:10:30.110 --> 00:10:34.730 strikes my fancy, I can always push the pause 00:10:34.730 --> 00:10:38.269 button. And I'm receiving the word of the Lord 00:10:38.269 --> 00:10:44.889 into my spirit and into my mind. Everybody say 00:10:44.889 --> 00:10:48.870 the written word of God will open up your spiritual 00:10:48.870 --> 00:10:54.250 perception. Now, if you like to read, read on. 00:10:54.389 --> 00:11:03.929 I like to rest my eyes. You know, I'm 65. And 00:11:03.929 --> 00:11:07.200 then. I know this is very simple. I have to do 00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:09.980 this. And then it's just simple praise and worship 00:11:09.980 --> 00:11:16.179 music. Now, I can't sing and the African -American 00:11:16.179 --> 00:11:24.139 rhythm gene didn't know I was born. And so typically 00:11:24.139 --> 00:11:28.820 I sing through other people. So I like to do 00:11:28.820 --> 00:11:32.360 praise and worship so I can perceive the presence 00:11:32.360 --> 00:11:36.899 of the Lord and I just soak. Everybody say the 00:11:36.899 --> 00:11:43.139 word. And the spirit. So. So here's the deal. 00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:47.779 You have to put it on your schedule. Look at 00:11:47.779 --> 00:11:51.139 somebody say you have to schedule the word. Look 00:11:51.139 --> 00:11:52.659 at somebody say you have to schedule the Holy 00:11:52.659 --> 00:11:56.860 Spirit. Believe it or not, you're putting the 00:11:56.860 --> 00:12:05.139 anointing in your schedule. Okay. See, when I 00:12:05.139 --> 00:12:06.460 got filled with the Holy Spirit, I didn't have 00:12:06.460 --> 00:12:13.620 any gifting. Nope, nope, none, none. Do you spell 00:12:13.620 --> 00:12:20.299 N -O -N -E? None. And because I came from a family 00:12:20.299 --> 00:12:22.519 of intellectuals, it didn't make sense to me 00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.220 that natural man does not receive the things 00:12:24.220 --> 00:12:30.460 of the Spirit of God. And so, and second, I'm 00:12:30.460 --> 00:12:38.610 a person. That I have to understand it. So you 00:12:38.610 --> 00:12:41.570 won't have to deal with my understanding. Because 00:12:41.570 --> 00:12:44.789 here's the deal with me. I want to know how it 00:12:44.789 --> 00:12:51.649 works. Just me. But there's a scripture that 00:12:51.649 --> 00:12:55.549 says this. Now I'm going somewhere. After Jesus 00:12:55.549 --> 00:12:57.450 was raised from the dead, the scripture says 00:12:57.450 --> 00:13:03.639 this. Then opened he there under. that they might 00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:07.299 understand the scriptures. That means, and I 00:13:07.299 --> 00:13:11.179 referenced Isaiah 11 and 2, there's a spirit 00:13:11.179 --> 00:13:14.940 of understanding that lets you know. Spirit of 00:13:14.940 --> 00:13:17.500 wisdom, creativity, what works. Spirit of understanding 00:13:17.500 --> 00:13:21.000 is why what works actually works. So anyway, 00:13:21.059 --> 00:13:25.879 I'm asked to do this meeting. And what they want 00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:31.700 me to teach on is how to host. The manifest presence 00:13:31.700 --> 00:13:35.860 of God. So since that's what they want, give 00:13:35.860 --> 00:13:38.539 the people what they want. So I talked to the 00:13:38.539 --> 00:13:41.480 Lord about hosting his presence. And he won't 00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:44.879 talk to me about that. Okay, that ain't gonna 00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:48.700 work very well. So since you don't want to talk 00:13:48.700 --> 00:13:50.940 about that, what do you want to talk to me about? 00:13:54.259 --> 00:13:57.720 He starts talking to me about something that 00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:01.809 was quite fascinating. He called it curiosity. 00:14:04.090 --> 00:14:11.409 Very interesting. So I began to learn that spiritual 00:14:11.409 --> 00:14:14.269 curiosity increases your ability to receive the 00:14:14.269 --> 00:14:17.850 revelation of the Father in Jesus. In the book 00:14:17.850 --> 00:14:20.409 of Exodus chapter 3, when Moses saw that a bush 00:14:20.409 --> 00:14:23.649 was on fire, and it kept burning, because in 00:14:23.649 --> 00:14:25.669 that environment combustible things would burn, 00:14:25.769 --> 00:14:29.139 but it kept burning, he became curious. And the 00:14:29.139 --> 00:14:31.759 scripture says that when God saw, he turned to 00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:38.740 see. Oh, wait. Perception means I got to turn 00:14:38.740 --> 00:14:44.220 to see. Maybe the Holy Spirit's trying to interrupt 00:14:44.220 --> 00:14:52.580 my regularly scheduled program to get me to stare, 00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:59.600 to look, to probe, to turn to see. I'll say this, 00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:06.019 and I know this is so simple. How do you have 00:15:06.019 --> 00:15:11.960 visions? Well, you got to look to see. If you 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:18.019 don't look, you won't see. That's another. I'll 00:15:18.019 --> 00:15:21.000 come back to that later. When he turned to see, 00:15:21.059 --> 00:15:24.919 he began to receive the revelation of God. After 00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:30.039 that. His relationship with God increased his 00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.220 spiritual perception until he saw manifestations 00:15:33.220 --> 00:15:36.539 of both the presence and the power of God turn 00:15:36.539 --> 00:15:39.159 into signs and wonders. Look at somebody and 00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:44.679 say, you got to look to see. So you have to turn 00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:47.080 to see that the Lord will speak to you and you 00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:50.740 get the revelation of God himself. Spiritual 00:15:50.740 --> 00:15:54.240 perception is the result of stopping what you're 00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:58.039 doing and looking until your eyes are opened 00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:02.299 by the Holy Spirit. I know a guy who used to 00:16:02.299 --> 00:16:03.659 run an air conditioning and heating business. 00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:12.600 And he practiced perception. Something, you know, 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:16.139 he would get a call to fix something and he would 00:16:16.139 --> 00:16:20.299 ask the Lord, what's wrong with it? And the Lord 00:16:20.299 --> 00:16:25.899 would tell him. And when there was a financial 00:16:25.899 --> 00:16:29.519 recession, his business was growing. Look at 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:33.820 somebody and say, spiritual perception can cause 00:16:33.820 --> 00:16:40.240 prosperity. This is very practical. Very practical. 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:44.259 It's so practical that sometimes spiritual perception 00:16:44.259 --> 00:16:53.210 goes to this. The woman that's writing. See, 00:16:53.309 --> 00:16:54.629 here's the deal. Let me tell you about spiritual 00:16:54.629 --> 00:16:56.929 perception. Let's just, you and me have a conversation 00:16:56.929 --> 00:17:00.110 and they can just eavesdrop. See, sometimes spiritual 00:17:00.110 --> 00:17:03.330 perception means this. I really want to say something, 00:17:03.470 --> 00:17:05.809 but the Holy Spirit says you just need to sit 00:17:05.809 --> 00:17:15.730 on yourself. Look at somebody say, don't give 00:17:15.730 --> 00:17:20.079 anybody a piece of your mind. Look at somebody 00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:34.880 and say, you need all the mind you got. And sometimes 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:38.240 you want to just share it. But the Holy Spirit 00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:41.400 said, don't say that right now. Oh, but I want 00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:44.319 to. The Holy Spirit says, pray in tongues. If 00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:45.759 you got to have your lips moving, pray in the 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:57.319 Spirit. And then some of us, we're insane. It 00:17:57.319 --> 00:18:01.500 was nice talking to you. Can I talk to you now? 00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:06.319 Okay, who are you with? You with them? Okay, 00:18:06.380 --> 00:18:08.880 good. So anyway, so, you know, sometimes people 00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:12.259 have a best friend, but they fail to realize 00:18:12.259 --> 00:18:15.339 that their best friend has a best friend that's 00:18:15.339 --> 00:18:20.529 not theirs. And so you tell your secret to your 00:18:20.529 --> 00:18:22.250 best friend who also has a best friend that's 00:18:22.250 --> 00:18:27.450 not yours. And then you wonder how it got out. 00:18:29.650 --> 00:18:31.509 Look at somebody and say, you ought to pay attention 00:18:31.509 --> 00:18:43.730 to the anointing. If it's not practical. Now, 00:18:43.829 --> 00:18:46.109 here's what's funny. How many of you like me? 00:18:46.890 --> 00:18:55.250 You love to talk. Respond. How many of you have 00:18:55.250 --> 00:18:57.769 been like me where the Holy Spirit is going, 00:18:57.930 --> 00:19:01.650 don't say that, don't say that, don't say that. 00:19:01.990 --> 00:19:05.990 But you want to say that, you want to say that. 00:19:06.549 --> 00:19:09.730 And then after you said it, you regret ever saying 00:19:09.730 --> 00:19:21.700 it. Sometimes it's really hard to pay attention 00:19:21.700 --> 00:19:29.680 to the anointing. The anointing. It was curiosity. 00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:33.119 It was the curiosity of Moses that enabled him 00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:36.319 to hear the word of the Lord. When John's disciples 00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:39.359 looked at Jesus, they were curious. And they 00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:44.779 said, Lord, where do you live? Where do you abide? 00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:47.980 Where do you stay? Jesus said, come and see. 00:19:49.069 --> 00:19:52.410 So because of spiritual curiosity, they were 00:19:52.410 --> 00:19:57.190 able to be with Jesus. Jesus said in the book 00:19:57.190 --> 00:20:02.970 of Matthew, the last verse of chapter 28, Lord, 00:20:03.029 --> 00:20:05.009 I'm with you always, even to the end of the age. 00:20:06.910 --> 00:20:10.589 I'm having problems talking. Now, you know what's 00:20:10.589 --> 00:20:14.829 funny? Now, please hear me. I know what we mean 00:20:14.829 --> 00:20:23.279 when we say, I'm. Seeking God. So, what's he 00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:32.880 doing, running away from you? I know what we 00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:38.480 mean. I know what we mean. Because I do it. But 00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:43.460 after a while, and I heard a preacher use this 00:20:43.460 --> 00:20:47.299 example, and I'm going to be, I'm going to be 00:20:47.299 --> 00:20:50.000 cultural just because I know if I'm cultural, 00:20:50.180 --> 00:20:54.099 it will make you remember. You'll go, I can't 00:20:54.099 --> 00:21:00.119 believe he said that. So, you know, if you're 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.799 African American, you came from Africa or thereabouts 00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:07.480 somewhere. And so it doesn't matter what time 00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:10.000 you get up because the crops are coming up when 00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:13.519 they come up. So you white folks, we have an 00:21:13.519 --> 00:21:14.940 appointment and let's make the appointment at 00:21:14.940 --> 00:21:17.089 one. You'll be there at the restaurant at 1. 00:21:17.349 --> 00:21:21.549 I'm going to come in at 1 .15 because we operate 00:21:21.549 --> 00:21:27.470 CP time, colored people's time. I know you're 00:21:27.470 --> 00:21:29.730 going to, right now you're saying, I can't believe 00:21:29.730 --> 00:21:33.109 he's doing that. But I'm doing it because this 00:21:33.109 --> 00:21:36.650 will make you remember. Not that we all, because 00:21:36.650 --> 00:21:40.029 I got a stickler for time myself. But what you're 00:21:40.029 --> 00:21:41.170 going to do is you're going to stand up and you're 00:21:41.170 --> 00:21:43.450 going to wave at me and smile. And I'm going 00:21:43.450 --> 00:21:46.920 to say, oh, there you are. What if I was to tell 00:21:46.920 --> 00:21:49.980 you that you have appointments with God himself, 00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:56.019 but you have to look to see where he is in your 00:21:56.019 --> 00:22:01.440 marriage, in your family, in your career, in 00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:03.480 your profession. You have to look to see where 00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:07.039 he is in the room. Everybody say, you have to 00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:10.220 look to see. Because he's right there. He said, 00:22:10.299 --> 00:22:14.779 no, I'm with you always. So where is he? So even 00:22:14.779 --> 00:22:19.240 when I approach a service, I'm looking to see 00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:24.779 where God is. I'm just looking to find him because 00:22:24.779 --> 00:22:27.740 he's here somewhere because he kind of likes 00:22:27.740 --> 00:22:34.380 you. Kind of. He really likes you. So I'm looking 00:22:34.380 --> 00:22:45.049 to see where he's at. So in 1 Peter. Chapter 00:22:45.049 --> 00:22:48.329 1, 10 through 12, this is what it says. It says, 00:22:48.410 --> 00:22:50.910 the scripture records that the prophets inquired 00:22:50.910 --> 00:22:53.490 of God concerning salvation about the grace that 00:22:53.490 --> 00:22:55.990 come to you, and they were searching what manner 00:22:55.990 --> 00:22:58.650 of time that the spirit of Christ in them to 00:22:58.650 --> 00:23:01.690 testify, and things were revealed to them as 00:23:01.690 --> 00:23:05.690 the result of their curiosity. That tells me 00:23:05.690 --> 00:23:09.670 that revelation, even prophecy, is the result 00:23:09.670 --> 00:23:15.519 of curiosity. Huh. That tells me that prophets 00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.220 lived in a state of spiritual curiosity. And 00:23:18.220 --> 00:23:20.359 as a result of that spiritual curiosity, they 00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:22.559 received discerning of spirits, words of knowledge, 00:23:22.700 --> 00:23:25.579 wisdom, prophecy. What does that mean? Could 00:23:25.579 --> 00:23:28.960 it be that spiritual curiosity is a key to activating 00:23:28.960 --> 00:23:35.920 the gifts of the Holy Spirit? Could it be that 00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:39.099 spiritual perception increases when you begin 00:23:39.099 --> 00:23:46.960 to look at people Not to see how they were, but 00:23:46.960 --> 00:23:59.319 how Jesus sees them. Huh. I wonder if you could 00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:02.900 look beyond their past and their present with 00:24:02.900 --> 00:24:05.440 spiritual perception and see people like Jesus 00:24:05.440 --> 00:24:07.440 sees them because Jesus saw people like the Father 00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:10.299 saw them. Because in John chapter 1 verse 42, 00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:13.079 Jesus looks at a man and says, your name is Simon. 00:24:14.430 --> 00:24:16.250 Which, by the way, in the Greek means unstable 00:24:16.250 --> 00:24:21.710 as water. Which means he had the tendency in 00:24:21.710 --> 00:24:29.369 his lower life to sink to the lowest level. He 00:24:29.369 --> 00:24:34.210 could blow a fuse, a gasket. He had anger management 00:24:34.210 --> 00:24:41.640 problems. That's why he'd go to cussing. And 00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:45.720 then he could get cold as ice. He was externally 00:24:45.720 --> 00:24:52.539 regulated by the temperature. He did not have 00:24:52.539 --> 00:24:58.700 internal controls. Interesting. Jesus says, well, 00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:03.900 right now you're silent. But I see something 00:25:03.900 --> 00:25:14.799 else. I see Cephas. I see a stone. I see a stone. 00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:20.299 I see you from your future. I'm calling it into 00:25:20.299 --> 00:25:23.619 being now. And this word is going to overtake 00:25:23.619 --> 00:25:27.200 you. And eventually this word is releasing an 00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:35.559 anointing that's going to conquer Simon. And 00:25:35.559 --> 00:25:39.200 you will cease to be conformed. to your past 00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:42.839 and you will be transformed into the image and 00:25:42.839 --> 00:25:49.619 the likeness that my father has decreed. Okay, 00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:53.579 let me, okay, I guess I have to do this. Not 00:25:53.579 --> 00:25:57.920 crazy about this, but anyway. So, I'm in glory 00:25:57.920 --> 00:26:01.880 and there's a father and, you know, spirits come 00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:04.839 out of God and he sends them into the earth and 00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:08.039 they become souls. That's where you came from 00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:21.240 when your mom and dad got happy. And so I see 00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:24.980 this spirit come out, and the father starts singing 00:26:24.980 --> 00:26:30.799 to this spirit. Sings to this spirit its purpose, 00:26:31.079 --> 00:26:36.569 its calling, its anointing, its gifting. His 00:26:36.569 --> 00:26:40.730 destiny impacts it and imprints it into the spirit. 00:26:42.650 --> 00:26:47.069 Blows him into the earth. So that when the person 00:26:47.069 --> 00:26:51.410 repents of sin, believes in Jesus, what was placed 00:26:51.410 --> 00:26:54.250 in that person by the father begins the process 00:26:54.250 --> 00:27:02.930 of activation. In fact, true prophecy is nothing 00:27:02.930 --> 00:27:08.869 but Reading from the book that the father wrote 00:27:08.869 --> 00:27:12.309 about you before he blew you into the earth. 00:27:15.549 --> 00:27:19.509 Spiritual curiosity gives you the ability to 00:27:19.509 --> 00:27:24.390 read a page or a paragraph or a sentence out 00:27:24.390 --> 00:27:31.369 of the book. Once you spiritually perceive that 00:27:31.369 --> 00:27:35.470 the father doesn't just like you, he loves you 00:27:35.470 --> 00:27:41.930 and likes you. And he's for you. He's really, 00:27:41.950 --> 00:27:45.930 really for you. And then because he's for you, 00:27:45.970 --> 00:27:49.069 you act for yourself and not against yourself. 00:27:49.190 --> 00:27:51.930 You figure out that everything is rigged in your 00:27:51.930 --> 00:28:03.819 favor. And that no matter what happens, ultimately 00:28:03.819 --> 00:28:09.960 you will succeed. So my question to you is this. 00:28:10.480 --> 00:28:14.000 What would you do if you knew you could not fail? 00:28:20.019 --> 00:28:24.160 So I'm minding my own business, which I do unless 00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:28.000 I'm really bored. Then I mind other people's 00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:39.279 business. I got cousins in this room. You might 00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:45.440 be one of them. Anyway, I'll leave that alone. 00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:51.019 So the father starts talking to me. This is what 00:28:51.019 --> 00:28:54.799 he says. He says, I called you just like I did 00:28:54.799 --> 00:29:02.089 Joshua. He said. just like I was with Moses, 00:29:02.329 --> 00:29:08.970 I'll be with you. He said to me, every place 00:29:08.970 --> 00:29:10.549 upon which the sole of your foot shall tread, 00:29:10.609 --> 00:29:14.589 I've given it to you as your inheritance. He 00:29:14.589 --> 00:29:18.089 said, just like I was with Moses, I'll be with 00:29:18.089 --> 00:29:34.180 you. And he said, I will not fail you. So I'm 00:29:34.180 --> 00:29:38.380 very confident because I can even make a mistake 00:29:38.380 --> 00:29:40.019 and God will turn the mistake into a miracle. 00:29:43.359 --> 00:29:44.960 Look at somebody and say, you can even make a 00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:48.759 mistake and your father will turn your mistakes 00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:59.660 into miracles. And I can make a mistake and the 00:29:59.660 --> 00:30:01.779 father will give me wisdom. I'm learning mistake. 00:30:02.299 --> 00:30:06.839 I'm learning wisdom from my mistakes. Right? 00:30:07.220 --> 00:30:10.119 So I understand that what appears to be failure 00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:17.880 is on the road to success. So I fail where I 00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:21.859 need to to be able to minister to you. Okay. 00:30:23.099 --> 00:30:26.200 For a righteous man falls down completely, but 00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:29.480 God picks him up. A righteous man falls down 00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:31.650 seven times, but the Lord picks him up. So he 00:30:31.650 --> 00:30:39.269 really, so ultimately he is successful. Are you 00:30:39.269 --> 00:30:45.950 still with me? Okay, so now. So Jesus sees Simon 00:30:45.950 --> 00:30:49.630 first in his earthly identity, but he saw Peter 00:30:49.630 --> 00:30:52.930 in his heavenly identity. Jesus' perception, 00:30:53.210 --> 00:31:00.740 he speaks to Simon out of Simon's future. and 00:31:00.740 --> 00:31:07.640 calls Peter into being now. So, I don't live 00:31:07.640 --> 00:31:13.579 in my earthly identity. Love my dad, respect 00:31:13.579 --> 00:31:15.740 my dad, 100 years of age when he went into glory, 00:31:15.980 --> 00:31:19.299 but I never would let my dad define me. Never. 00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:23.039 He tried, bless his heart. He meant well. Ain't 00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:29.240 happening. Because it was too low. My mom, who 00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:32.240 was the oldest of several children, she tried 00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:38.440 to be the boss of me. But I was the baby. Ain't 00:31:38.440 --> 00:31:48.319 nobody the boss of me. My dad was a Baptist. 00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:52.420 Mama was a Baptist. She was a Bible teacher. 00:31:54.420 --> 00:31:57.440 My mama, you know, they wanted me to be a Baptist. 00:31:57.980 --> 00:32:03.059 I got saved in the Baptist church. Got filled 00:32:03.059 --> 00:32:06.579 with the Holy Ghost. Had an angelic encounter, 00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:11.380 not a vision, actual physical angel talk to me 00:32:11.380 --> 00:32:14.539 in front of people. And they want to convince 00:32:14.539 --> 00:32:30.410 me to be a Baptist. Want to tell me? Miracles 00:32:30.410 --> 00:32:34.109 don't happen. I told them while I was just in 00:32:34.109 --> 00:32:36.789 the meeting, because there was a move of God 00:32:36.789 --> 00:32:38.710 and I was a part of it with young people, and 00:32:38.710 --> 00:32:41.009 the owner of the building, he was on crutches, 00:32:41.130 --> 00:32:44.390 and he put away his crutches and he walks. Too 00:32:44.390 --> 00:32:50.849 late. I was standing this close to the guy when 00:32:50.849 --> 00:32:59.990 the miracle happened. So revelation produces 00:32:59.990 --> 00:33:04.589 transformation as Simon becomes Peter as he obeys 00:33:04.589 --> 00:33:15.569 Jesus. Here's what's crazy. All right. What are 00:33:15.569 --> 00:33:18.670 the people saying about me? One apostle says 00:33:18.670 --> 00:33:20.609 this. He says, what do you got to say about me? 00:33:21.930 --> 00:33:27.289 Simon, Peter says, you're the king. Messiah, 00:33:27.309 --> 00:33:32.150 the king. You're the son of the living God. Blessed 00:33:32.150 --> 00:33:34.329 are you, Simon Barjona. Flesh and blood didn't 00:33:34.329 --> 00:33:35.750 reveal this to you, but my father in heaven. 00:33:36.109 --> 00:33:37.930 And I tell you that I'm the big rock. You're 00:33:37.930 --> 00:33:39.710 the little rock. And upon the big rock, I'm going 00:33:39.710 --> 00:33:41.730 to build the church. And the gates of hell should 00:33:41.730 --> 00:33:46.869 not prevail against it. Wait. How's this transformation 00:33:46.869 --> 00:33:53.269 come? Peter had a spiritual perception first 00:33:53.269 --> 00:33:56.640 about who Jesus was and what Jesus was. And as 00:33:56.640 --> 00:33:59.920 a result of that, Jesus gave Peter a perception 00:33:59.920 --> 00:34:05.220 on how he was seen by the Father. Everybody say, 00:34:05.339 --> 00:34:09.420 number one, revelation. Everybody say, number 00:34:09.420 --> 00:34:13.940 two, identification. Everybody say, number three, 00:34:13.980 --> 00:34:19.760 authorization. So as he began to identify with 00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:28.329 Jesus, he began to be transformed by God. Are 00:34:28.329 --> 00:34:31.949 you still with me? So here's where I'm coming 00:34:31.949 --> 00:34:36.690 from. I refuse to let anybody tell me who I am 00:34:36.690 --> 00:34:42.829 when they don't know who they are. Now you need 00:34:42.829 --> 00:34:47.090 to hear me. Hear me. Moses was the son of a Hebrew 00:34:47.090 --> 00:34:49.170 father and mother, but he was raised in the house 00:34:49.170 --> 00:34:51.829 of Pharaoh. And so he lived in an identity that 00:34:51.829 --> 00:34:55.030 wasn't his for 40 years. The longer you live 00:34:55.030 --> 00:34:57.719 in identity, that's not yours, you delay coming 00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:02.300 into who you are. So unless you speak to me the 00:35:02.300 --> 00:35:04.480 word of the Lord that agrees with my heavenly 00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:07.219 identity, I'm in my heart giving you the hand. 00:35:15.099 --> 00:35:18.679 Everybody say revelation. Everybody say identification. 00:35:19.980 --> 00:35:23.420 Everybody say authorization. Peter, I give to 00:35:23.420 --> 00:35:31.840 you the keys. Whatever is forbidden in heaven, 00:35:31.960 --> 00:35:36.679 you have the ability, when I tell you to, to 00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:38.920 forbid it on earth. Whatever is permitted in 00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:41.820 heaven, you have the ability to permit it on 00:35:41.820 --> 00:35:46.079 earth. Everybody say revelation, identification, 00:35:46.780 --> 00:35:53.239 authorization. And guess what? It all happens 00:35:53.239 --> 00:35:59.659 through perception. The perception brought about 00:35:59.659 --> 00:36:02.559 the transformation. Let me show you how powerful 00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:10.719 this is. Peter is up on a house stop praying. 00:36:10.820 --> 00:36:14.019 He gets hungry. I'm thinking about that fish 00:36:14.019 --> 00:36:22.980 tonight. He has a vision. And in the vision, 00:36:23.099 --> 00:36:26.139 he's instructed to eat something that's not clean. 00:36:26.699 --> 00:36:31.480 Gentiles. He's Jewish. Has it three times. Vision 00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:34.320 goes up. He's trying to figure out the revelation. 00:36:36.500 --> 00:36:41.619 And then the Holy Spirit says, three men are 00:36:41.619 --> 00:36:45.099 looking for you. Go with them, doubting nothing. 00:36:46.199 --> 00:36:50.460 Three visions in one. Three men. And he goes 00:36:50.460 --> 00:36:52.139 with the Gentiles and he goes into their house. 00:36:53.739 --> 00:36:58.610 And he preaches Jesus. The Holy Spirit falls, 00:36:58.929 --> 00:37:02.170 they speak in tongues, and they get baptized 00:37:02.170 --> 00:37:09.989 in water. All Peter was looking at at that moment 00:37:09.989 --> 00:37:19.329 was the people in the house. It wasn't until 00:37:19.329 --> 00:37:23.030 later that he perceived you being in Christ. 00:37:28.039 --> 00:37:31.579 What am I saying? Sometimes God is doing something 00:37:31.579 --> 00:37:35.400 in your life or through your life, and you don't 00:37:35.400 --> 00:37:42.500 even perceive the full significance of it. You're 00:37:42.500 --> 00:37:45.980 only looking at what's going on in the house 00:37:45.980 --> 00:37:51.559 and not the thousands and millions of people 00:37:51.559 --> 00:38:06.559 that are in the backyard. And so I need the anointing 00:38:06.559 --> 00:38:12.840 to increase my spiritual perception so I can 00:38:12.840 --> 00:38:17.420 see what God is doing in my life and the lives 00:38:17.420 --> 00:38:22.139 of others. Because if I could perceive it and 00:38:22.139 --> 00:38:27.880 conceive it, I can get a hold of it. I can shift 00:38:27.880 --> 00:38:33.710 it from the invisible to the visible. And so 00:38:33.710 --> 00:38:36.710 I have, and I'm getting ready to close, and we 00:38:36.710 --> 00:38:43.329 get ready to do something. So sometimes I see 00:38:43.329 --> 00:38:46.510 with my physical eyes you, but I see something 00:38:46.510 --> 00:38:48.590 else with my spiritual eyes at the same time. 00:38:49.190 --> 00:38:52.349 Or sometimes I will fall asleep with my eyes 00:38:52.349 --> 00:38:57.389 open. All this fades to black, and I'll be somewhere 00:38:57.389 --> 00:39:02.730 in the future. Maybe a meeting. And I may see 00:39:02.730 --> 00:39:07.050 the pastor. I may see what he's wearing. It'll 00:39:07.050 --> 00:39:10.710 be like color as if I'm there. Or maybe I'm supposed 00:39:10.710 --> 00:39:16.030 to minister to somebody, and I'll see the condition 00:39:16.030 --> 00:39:21.170 in their body as if I'm there in color. I may 00:39:21.170 --> 00:39:24.429 be in a church service, and let's say there's 00:39:24.429 --> 00:39:26.250 somebody who's involved in witchcraft, and they're 00:39:26.250 --> 00:39:27.730 on this row, and they're sitting right here. 00:39:28.010 --> 00:39:30.730 Okay, that's got to be dealt with. You know what 00:39:30.730 --> 00:39:35.750 I mean? I'll dream about something. And then 00:39:35.750 --> 00:39:38.929 if it's like that, I'm awake. It fades to black 00:39:38.929 --> 00:39:41.809 and it's like falling asleep with your eyes open. 00:39:43.989 --> 00:39:47.050 Because it's part of my assignment. It's not 00:39:47.050 --> 00:39:52.250 because I'm spiritual. Seriously? Really? No. 00:39:53.690 --> 00:40:00.199 It's not that. It's that I've learned. Or I'm 00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:10.000 learning to look just to see. So what does that 00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:14.800 mean? That means maybe the Holy Spirit says, 00:40:15.019 --> 00:40:20.460 don't go to work your regular route. Go a different 00:40:20.460 --> 00:40:27.159 route. That make sense? So everybody say it's 00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:32.610 very practical. So let me give you this scripture 00:40:32.610 --> 00:40:35.269 and then we're going to shift. This is from the 00:40:35.269 --> 00:40:37.210 book of Acts chapter 11 verse 22. You don't have 00:40:37.210 --> 00:40:40.449 to put it up. When Barnabas came to Antioch, 00:40:40.550 --> 00:40:43.909 he saw the grace of God and encouraged the believers 00:40:43.909 --> 00:40:46.530 with purpose of heart to cleave to the Lord. 00:40:47.210 --> 00:40:51.190 The Greek word saw or had seen is spelled Horeo. 00:40:51.809 --> 00:40:55.369 It means to look at something intently, to scrutinize 00:40:55.369 --> 00:40:58.349 it, to analyze it, to observe it something fully. 00:40:59.880 --> 00:41:03.039 The thing about Jesus is this. He looks beyond 00:41:03.039 --> 00:41:07.000 your faults. He'll see your need. It's not that 00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:09.400 he's unaware of your flaws, weaknesses, and defects 00:41:09.400 --> 00:41:13.260 of character. It means that he looks beyond them 00:41:13.260 --> 00:41:20.400 to see you in your original heavenly state that 00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:22.320 you're going to walk into as you follow Jesus. 00:41:24.980 --> 00:41:28.199 Barnabas was a great apostle and prophet. And 00:41:28.199 --> 00:41:31.119 he was able to see the grace of God. He was able 00:41:31.119 --> 00:41:32.780 to see what God was doing in the lives of the 00:41:32.780 --> 00:41:35.440 disciples of Jesus. And the Spirit of God wants 00:41:35.440 --> 00:41:39.199 you to be able to perceive what the Father's 00:41:39.199 --> 00:41:41.320 doing in the lives of his sons and daughters 00:41:41.320 --> 00:41:43.840 through his son Jesus. So when you're moving 00:41:43.840 --> 00:41:45.719 in, like discerning of spirits, words, and knowledge, 00:41:45.820 --> 00:41:49.559 wisdom, prophecy, look for what God's grace is 00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:54.900 saying and doing in the life of that person by 00:41:54.900 --> 00:41:58.880 the Spirit of Jesus. Give the Lord a big hand 00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:09.440 clap, will you? So, I've been at conferences, 00:42:09.619 --> 00:42:13.400 many, where they would set me in a room and they 00:42:13.400 --> 00:42:15.719 would just bring people. And I just prophesied. 00:42:16.219 --> 00:42:19.000 Maybe take an afternoon. Because I would just 00:42:19.000 --> 00:42:23.590 simply look and see. It's very simple. I just 00:42:23.590 --> 00:42:25.530 simply tap into the spirit of Jesus because he's 00:42:25.530 --> 00:42:29.650 a prophet in me. And I can go, I can look at 00:42:29.650 --> 00:42:32.909 him and go, oh, you have a Romans 12 gift of 00:42:32.909 --> 00:42:37.690 teaching. You're analytical and you have to figure 00:42:37.690 --> 00:42:42.489 things out. You have this pragmatic thing about 00:42:42.489 --> 00:42:45.449 it's got to be one, two, three, and four. A, 00:42:45.510 --> 00:42:47.789 B, C, and D. And when I was talking about you 00:42:47.789 --> 00:42:49.809 need to understand it to move in it, you went, 00:42:49.889 --> 00:42:54.670 oh, that fits me. Is that true? Raise your hand 00:42:54.670 --> 00:42:56.889 so they don't, because they can't see you. So 00:42:56.889 --> 00:42:58.809 do you know you have a gift of teacher in you? 00:43:00.030 --> 00:43:05.789 You know now. Notice how I put the question. 00:43:06.030 --> 00:43:08.710 Did you know? Did you know Jesus the teacher 00:43:08.710 --> 00:43:12.250 is going to work through you? You're going to 00:43:12.250 --> 00:43:14.889 be anointed to teach. Here's the crazy thing 00:43:14.889 --> 00:43:20.219 about your teaching. As you teach, the power 00:43:20.219 --> 00:43:23.500 of the Lord has become present to heal. Because 00:43:23.500 --> 00:43:25.860 you've been praying about that. Right? Raise 00:43:25.860 --> 00:43:27.739 your hand so they know I'm hitting it because 00:43:27.739 --> 00:43:31.219 you know. And then you've got this thing about 00:43:31.219 --> 00:43:32.780 you want to see people deliver from the evil. 00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:35.900 Raise your hand if that's true. And then you 00:43:35.900 --> 00:43:37.400 want to see people feel the Holy Spirit. Raise 00:43:37.400 --> 00:43:42.980 your hand if that's true. And so, you know, there's 00:43:42.980 --> 00:43:44.840 kind of this, I don't know if you're aware of 00:43:44.840 --> 00:43:47.260 this. You know, you kind of got a pastoral kind 00:43:47.260 --> 00:43:50.710 of a thing. You know that, right? But you also 00:43:50.710 --> 00:43:53.190 got an evangelistic kind of a thing, right? Okay, 00:43:53.230 --> 00:44:09.489 so just listen to your pastor. Now, I need to 00:44:09.489 --> 00:44:12.230 do this with you because it's important. You've 00:44:12.230 --> 00:44:15.670 heard of Rick Renner. He has Sparkling Gems 1 00:44:15.670 --> 00:44:19.469 and 2. Do you have them? You should get them. 00:44:20.210 --> 00:44:24.710 It's going to help you. Okay? He's extremely 00:44:24.710 --> 00:44:27.289 solid. He's like a Greek scholar. I think he, 00:44:27.329 --> 00:44:30.050 well, he's an apostle, really. And so I think 00:44:30.050 --> 00:44:31.849 he established a church in Moscow. And I think 00:44:31.849 --> 00:44:36.469 he has a school of Jesus. And I think he has 00:44:36.469 --> 00:44:38.469 ministries that have come out of him. And he's 00:44:38.469 --> 00:44:45.250 just real. You'll really like him. He will help 00:44:45.250 --> 00:44:50.039 you in the pastoral part. Because pastors need 00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:52.679 to be teachers, right? When you look at, I just, 00:44:52.820 --> 00:44:54.920 please forgive me. When you look at Timothy, 00:44:55.079 --> 00:44:58.159 1 Timothy and 2 and Titus, elders need to teach, 00:44:58.360 --> 00:45:00.780 right? They got all these qualifications like 00:45:00.780 --> 00:45:03.460 22, 23, but there's one they had to have. Look 00:45:03.460 --> 00:45:06.360 at somebody say they need to teach. So this whole 00:45:06.360 --> 00:45:09.559 pastor, teacher, evangelist thing, okay? So you 00:45:09.559 --> 00:45:11.380 should stand right here because there's an anointment. 00:45:12.659 --> 00:45:16.389 I like that word, anointment. It may or may not 00:45:16.389 --> 00:45:20.329 be a word, but other people make words up, so 00:45:20.329 --> 00:45:25.070 I figure I will. Hey, Kenny, man, what are you 00:45:25.070 --> 00:45:35.789 doing, man? Y 'all going to pray for this dude? 00:45:38.670 --> 00:45:41.550 Well, when are you going to pray for him? Let's 00:45:41.550 --> 00:45:43.050 pray for him now. Lift up your hands and get 00:45:43.050 --> 00:45:47.460 ready to receive more of God. Come on. Father, 00:45:47.500 --> 00:45:51.500 we thank you for this pastoral teaching and evangelistic 00:45:51.500 --> 00:45:55.039 gift of Jesus that's on the inside of him. Let 00:45:55.039 --> 00:45:57.239 it be cultivated. Let it be matured. Let it be 00:45:57.239 --> 00:46:01.920 developed. Let him go through what he's got to 00:46:01.920 --> 00:46:04.940 go through so that he can be shaped and formed 00:46:04.940 --> 00:46:07.880 and made by you, God Almighty, so that he can 00:46:07.880 --> 00:46:16.579 overcome every test and he can stand. the pressures 00:46:16.579 --> 00:46:20.840 of being a leader and that he could be victorious 00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:24.320 and an overcomer through Jesus. Come on, pray 00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:27.139 for him in 30 seconds. Come on. 30 seconds. Pray 00:46:27.139 --> 00:46:38.900 over him in the spirit. Almost done. We're almost 00:46:38.900 --> 00:47:06.199 done. I've got a big hand clap. You can take 00:47:06.199 --> 00:47:20.780 the seat. Now, I do need the screen. I need Ephesians 00:47:20.780 --> 00:47:25.400 1 and 17. I need to do this, then I'm gonna tell 00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:26.599 you something, and then we're all gonna pray, 00:47:26.800 --> 00:47:32.750 and then I'm gonna go eat me some food. Paul 00:47:32.750 --> 00:47:34.670 says that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the 00:47:34.670 --> 00:47:37.250 Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of 00:47:37.250 --> 00:47:38.949 wisdom and revelation, the knowledge of the Father. 00:47:39.130 --> 00:47:45.769 Next verse. That the eyes of your understanding 00:47:45.769 --> 00:47:52.809 may be enlightened. Okay. Understanding is where 00:47:52.809 --> 00:47:59.369 we get the word heart. Enlightened is where we 00:47:59.369 --> 00:48:04.039 get the word photizo. What it's saying here is 00:48:04.039 --> 00:48:07.699 that there's an anointing. Jesus, the anointed 00:48:07.699 --> 00:48:11.420 one in his anointing, the Holy Spirit, can cause 00:48:11.420 --> 00:48:16.300 you to see properly framed photographs in the 00:48:16.300 --> 00:48:19.639 spirit of King Jesus. Everybody say, your eyes 00:48:19.639 --> 00:48:26.840 flooded with light. Now, here's the thing. My 00:48:26.840 --> 00:48:29.360 brother, where's the brother? Was that you came 00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:31.940 up here to talk about perception? Is that you? 00:48:33.039 --> 00:48:36.340 Where's he at? Okay, it was you. Okay, so here's 00:48:36.340 --> 00:48:41.239 the deal. You were right on. And then the brother 00:48:41.239 --> 00:48:45.780 talked about the pots of oil. Here's what's crazy. 00:48:46.679 --> 00:48:52.500 One of the angels, there's a couple angels I 00:48:52.500 --> 00:48:57.059 want to mention. One has to do with releasing 00:48:57.059 --> 00:49:00.159 the anointing, but the other is a honey angel. 00:49:01.389 --> 00:49:06.769 I should explain. Everybody say, honey anointing. 00:49:08.449 --> 00:49:11.070 Here's the deal. And as soon as I say it, you'll 00:49:11.070 --> 00:49:15.469 get it.

He 00:49:23.789 --> 00:49:27.570 was faint. He found some honey and he ate it. 00:49:27.690 --> 00:49:30.090 And the scripture says his eyes were enlightened. 00:49:33.610 --> 00:49:37.130 What if I was to say to you that there are angels 00:49:37.130 --> 00:49:43.190 up here of anointing that can release honey that 00:49:43.190 --> 00:49:45.789 will cause your spiritual perception to increase 00:49:45.789 --> 00:49:50.329 and that they can release the light of spiritual 00:49:50.329 --> 00:49:56.010 perception onto you right where you are.
