little I've got left amen and of course a sister spelled her kind hospitality in her home I just don't want to think every morning we've had good breakfast and I got a basket in my room and oh my lord mercy whoever cooked that gumbo and that had to play last night now I have a policy that if I come preach a seminar or preach for you then nobody in your church can ever become a member of my church but I'm gonna make an exception here whoever cooked that gumbo I want to talk to you right after church almost leave I put you in my suitcase and take you home with me they do not know how to cook in Kansas except my wife amen and I want to say I want to greet my wife I understand we're on the Holy Ghost radio this morning and and she has tuned in so I want to say wonderful things about sister dolly and thank you for listening to me praise God one more time amen good to have some of my friends here for the Patton from summit Mississippi and Loan him alone we go back a long way I want you to open your Bible this morning I preached an hour yesterday and my wife is listening this morning and and she does not likely to preach more than 45 minutes and so honey in about 45 minutes you can turn the radio off and I'll finish but for the spell won't be preached three hours I love brother spell hallelujah I told my church the other night I said one of these one of these sund'ys I'm gonna start preaching and I'm gonna preach as long as I want to and as long as there's one person in the building keep on preaching and I did that and send Salvador one time I preached eight consecutive hours I used three interpreters and wore all three of them out and at the end of the eighth power I passed out / he's gone so I know I can preach eight hours so if we ought to be finished by the time church starts tonight amen the book of galatians chapter 6 and i'ma read just a few verses and I'll let you be seated praise God be not deceived God is not mocked for whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap for he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption but he that soweth to the spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting and let us not be weary and well doing for in view season we shall reap if we faint not Oh hallelujah you can be seated now I want you to turn to also the book of John chapter 4 and beginning reading at verse number 35 say not ye there are four months and then cometh harvest behold I say unto you lift up your eyes lift up your eyes and look upon the fields for they are white already to harvest he that reapeth receiveth wages and gather fruit under the life eternal that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice but I say together and herein is that saying true one soweth and another reaping I sent you to reap that whereon you bestowed no labor other men labored and you have entered into their labors can I have an amen somebody it's very important to understand that there are a number of the law of gravity and back in my day they had DC comic books and they had Superman the real Superman the spacesuit man they got now he nothing compared the Superman they had in the comic books back then and I was just six years old maybe five and a half and I wanted to be Superman and so I stole one of my mother's red towels and tied it around my neck and I climbed up on top of the barn and I sailed off and I discovered the law of gravity and believe me gravity always works amen you have to have something that is stronger than gravity to overcome gravity and you may overcome it periodically but gravity is eventually going to work and I have an amen somebody and then of course there's the immutable laws of electricity the immutable laws of mechanics there's immutable laws of thermodynamics and the reason that an airplane can fly on airplane of B 47:47 can take off and it has a combined weight of 250,000 pounds and yet in a mile-and-a-half runway it can lift off that runway because there are laws of gravity there are the Bernoulli equations that that says that plane can fly no matter how much your ways depending on the surface that wing and it's gonna fly praise God and I I get an airplane and I'm not scared but airplane now because I understand the laws that govern that airplane and and they never gonna fail they're always gonna be there and there is an immutable law of the harvest now I want to be very pointed here and let you understand that it doesn't matter what size your church is whether you run fifteen or fifteen hundred or fifteen thousand the immutable law of the harvest is always going to be there now you can ignore that law and you can say the law doesn't exist but the truth the matter is and and second Corinthians are first Corinthians I believe it is if you so abundantly you will reap abundantly if you sow sparingly you will reap sparingly and if I can do anything here today I'd like to read the fine for you of the law of abundance I like to redefine what abundance is and what sparingly is a couple of years ago we had been knocking doors in Kansas and we do a door knocking campaign a couple of times a year and we got up to where we could knock 80,000 doors on one Saturday and we always had tremendous results when we would organize and we'd have 400 people volunteer and we would have a training classes and have all the material ready and on Saturday morning at 10 o'clock we started knocking doors and in six hours we found out that one person I could go to 200 doors in between 6 and 8 hours and we asked our people to give us one eight-hour day of the year to knock doors and so each person would go to 200 doors and you combine that with 400 people and we would knock eight 80,000 doors in one day and we got results when you knock that many doors you're gonna have visitors come to your church and of course visitors mean Bible studies and Bible studies mean converts and converts mean people are gonna be added to your church praise God and but at the same time it didn't seem like that 80,000 was really sowing abundantly and so I come up with this little thing I went to a a direct mail people in our city a contemporary communications and I talked with Pam Fleming who owns contemporary communications and I said we want we want to we want to touch every home in the Wichita Greater Metro area and we looked it up and we found out that there were 230,000 residential doors within the driving distance of our church and it has expanded now there are 250,000 doors but we never was able to reach every door in the metro area and so what we've done is we found out that there were 29 different zip code areas in the area that we were reaching farmed and so we we had a prayer meeting and God said ordain every mail carrier to be a door knocker for first Pentecostal church I said sound like a good idea and so we put a brochure together and the last week of September we put 250,000 brochures in the mail and one day's time and and we got some amazing statistics out of that we found out that one-tenth of one percent of people that the brochure went to the door would visit your church and so we got 200 in the month of October we had 250 first-time families visited our church and either 250 first-time families of every one of those families got a set of home Bible study tapes that they can take Bible study in their home and they got other material that we gave them when they came and and out of that we got 60 Bible studies from 60 families of and and when all was said and done after we got we pumped 60 Bible studies to 60 different families if we want and incorporate it and put on our pews a 15 at new families you say well 15 new families is not very much out of two hundred and fifty thousand doors but in ten something the law of the harvest says you got a so abundantly if you're going to reap abundantly I feel the Holy Ghost can I have an amen somebody just out of curiosity I wit the Pam and I said I'm going to Baton Rouge Louisiana and I said would you tell me a how many residents our doors is in the greater Baton Rouge area and she said well it's changed because of Hurricane Katrina and so she got on a computer and got to look it up and did you know that the greater Baton Rouge of metro area is the same statistical size as Wichita Kansas and there are 230,000 resident took doors in the greater metro Baton Rouge area praise God just kind of little coincidences I want to give you just a few statistics there praise God and and yet it is possible it is possible you're not listening to me I said it is possible to reach every door in the greater metro Baton Rouge area with the gospel of Jesus Christ in a holiday amen now I didn't come to Baton Rouge just a preacher I come to tell you there is a latent revival in this city that is waiting to be had praise God and somebody is going to have that revival in Baton Rouge Louisiana it might as well be this church break you have a lot going for you in Baton Rouge number one you've got age here praise God you got maturity here you've got stability here you got the doctrine here it's been put into you for 53 years praise God and because you have that doctoral stability praise God God has done something very unique to this church in that he has given you a young pastor with strength and enthusiasm and drive to help drive the doctor of stability that's in this city praise God you've got a great team in be a snail and totally spell praise God and there's no reason why that the city of Baton Rouge could not become a great hapless Dalek City in the state of Louisiana I'm not sure what you're expecting I am I'm not hanging my head down in the 21st century and give this dis generation to the devil praise God I got used to the devil he might have got back up praise God because I'm going to bring the gospel and I'm gonna put it in the devil's face and i'ma say take it brother praise God it's time for this church to have apostolic tongue talkin Holy Ghost revival with miracles and wonders praise God hallelujah now let me address a situation but I feel like I need to address here and you know we are peer pressured to death and brother Tony spell I just want to warn you that when you have your first magnificent powerful outpouring of the Holy Ghost and your first huge breakthrough praise God and and this church can double not in ten years not in 20 years this church has the ability to double its adult population in one revival again even you can you can double this adult population in one single revival and when you double this church in one revival it's going to be more of them than more of you and you're gonna look very tired for a few months until the doctor'll stability within the church can't incorporate the new people praise God and your brother's gonna call you everything except a good man because you have so many new converts and you're not gonna look apostolic for a while you're gonna act apostolic and you're going to be apostolic and you have new converts shouting and there's going to be signs miracles healings and wonders but your brethren around you are gonna criticize you and try to tear you down you better have an afforded to within yourself to say I know what I believe I know what I stand for and I can endure anything the hell are my brothers can dish out praise God not everybody wants you to have a revival you've got to have revival within your own spirit praise God and say I'm not letting go of revival now I want to read one more passage for my tech I'm not preaching it okay I'm just still reading my text the book of Judges chapter six and verse number one amen and the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord and the Lord delivered them into the hand of Midian for seven years and the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel and because of the Midianites the children Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains and caves and strongholds and so it was when Israel had sown that the Midianites came up and the Amalekites and the children of the East even they came up against them and they encamped against them and destroyed the increase of the earth till becoming to Gaza and left no sustenance star the harvest that the church was to high praise God now I'll take the story when I was a bands list I won't say I was the good evangelist I couldn't preach but I was a harvester and other advantage didn't like me I don't know why I'm such a nice guy honey drips on my fingers mmm I taste so good and I just can't imagine people not liking a sweet fella like me I like me so much please God I buy my own sermons and but I I had a man caught it can't meet not had four or five great revivals in which I've had two or three hundred people prayed through and each one of those revivals and this man wanted to harvest and I guess is better judgment he cometh Mia Kemp he said I want you to come preach me a revival and I was I was absolutely shocked that this particular man wanted me to come preach a revival in his church because he was he was a right-wing right winger and my philosophy is a turkey has two wings and you whacked the right wing off and you whacked the left wing off and everything that's left in the middle is good to eat and the thing that's destroying us is not the turkey it's the wings okay y'all got that and so he wasn't even he was he was right wing to the right-wingers and and he considered me a left winger and I'm not a left winger but that's what he considered me me everything for him was for the left praise God and I said you sure you want me to come and I had one suit and I had a red pin striped shirt and kind of all suits only suit I had and only reason I had that suit was they call him preacher bought it for me and when you're a puller preacher and and people don't pay you like you're worth and I don't be paid what I'm worth anyway I want to be paid what I think I'm working and I said okay I said you sure you want me to come he said I said you better look at me and I said what you see is what you get yes I want you to come I got a have robot okay and but before I got there he had had two other revivals and I'm I got their names written here but I'm not gonna tell you who they are but I call him preacher number one and preacher number two preacher number one was a fasting fanatic I don't like the past my son told me one time he said dad I don't know why you don't like the fast he said ah I like the fast he said it don't hurt me too fast he said I just drink milkshakes with my past he fasted those people to death they fasted three days one week and four days the next week three days one week and four days the next week okay I'm not gonna fast like that you can you like fasting that's your that's your cup of tea fast all you want to praise God they may get a grass rope tie around your waist hold your britches up I don't care fast if you won't matter I'm gonna fast but I'm gonna do it be grudgingly praise God and for about 12 weeks he fasted those people to death and they had two or three people yet the Holy Ghost and 12 weeks of revival every night of the week and and at the skinniest church I've ever seen in my life and so he left and he brought in a second preacher and this preacher was a praying fanatic I liked prayer I do like I like free about 15 minutes every other week praise God I like prayer nothing wrong with praying 15 minutes ever of the week and but he he turned the church in the Quadro sonic prayer rooms and and for about 12 weeks they prayed every day they prayed morning they prayed new they prayed night rule they prayed my goodness and and so they had about three people yet the Holy Ghost in a 12 week revival and then the fasting had not seemed to work and the prayer had not seemed to work and so he got desperate for revival and so he asked a charismatic preacher like me to come to preach boring and so I okay I said you sure you want so I came and we started revival on Wednesday night and I went up on the platform and I had that pinstripe suit on of that shirt on and had that maroon looking suit and one pastor call it a king snake suit and but it's the only suit you got you got a we gotta wear what you got praise God amen and the other suit that I had the reason a preacher bought me the suit was the other suit I had my wife found it on sale for $29 and but she couldn't afford to have it hemmed up and she hemmed it up and she cut it off too short and all the other evangelists in the district called me a nerd a geek not even what that was back then but it sounded kind of offensive to me and so the pastor bought me this suit and I wore it and I would ever night I'd take my shirt off and I'd rinse it out and hang it up dry and the next night I had to wear that same suit and if preacher would pay me like I was worth I could have walked me another suit but you know you know how there is praise God back in the 1970s and 80s they didn't they didn't treat preachers right back then and so oh we started revival on Wednesday night and I noticed some fellows back in the back of the church on the back rows and and in the first night we had 12 people get the holy Hills and the church got mad at me because here I come I didn't come fast and I didn't come prayin and the first night I pray 12 people through the Holy Ghost and and so the next night the next night a street gang came in and all set on the back rows back there and it was about 45 gang we've been knocking doors and I had invited this gang member to the house of God and I didn't know he's gonna bring the whole game but 45 of them came in and sit down in the back of the church and and when the church saw these 45 gang members all come at one time it freaked them out I mean the holiest Church in Pentecost has been invaded by a horde of demons praise God and they turn and look and saw these 45 gang members that came to the house of God and I sent there on a platform and when I watched how the church reacted to getting all these people in the house of God I knock doors all day to get one of them to come I didn't know forty five bubbles gonna come but I'd knocked all doors all day to get one visitor in 45 show up and and they're treating like redheaded stepchildren and I got mad and I sit there and and and I don't preach good I get about half man and I had to work myself up I had to remember why I was getting mad because my 81 we get off on another subject but I make sure I got the pulpit oh good man praise God they finally turn it to me and I grab the microphone and I walk back to where one of them the gang members was I said who's the leader of this gang and this God raised a hand I said I'm so glad to meet you I said I don't think I did knock on your door dinner the boss says you knock on my door and I and I told him so we all came and I saw well I am so glad to have y'all I said I hate to tell you but we treat Vista pretty good here and we like to give them the front-row seat I said why don't y'all come with me all up stood up and I marched them all to the front road for a oh my god did the church get mad and and and when the altar call came I had 45 gang members in the all praise God and everybody's sitting around watching and not getting involved and it took me two hours to pray about 25 of those gang members through the baptism of the Holy Ghost I'm telling you we had an outpouring of the hook and I hadn't had time to pray 12 hours a day and I had had time to fast 12 days a week praise God it was just the second night a revival praise God and until the next the next morning I was out on a parking lot of the church and Here Come 45 gang members and I look around it was find a deacon and I look around to try to find a saint and where the Deacons of the Saints when you really need them and it looked like they was going to attack and one of them had a brown paper bag in his hand and he said I aren't you the preacher priest last night I said yes sir I am he said we want to talk to you okay I said what's up he said he said we've been kicked out of every Church in this valley he said we go to churches and and no tane in a church around here welcomes us we get run out of every church we've been going to and he said you're the first preacher that's ever invited us to come and sit on the front row he said we went home and we complete up a collection for you I said you what he's we took up a collection for you and they hand me that paper back I just knew it's gonna be marijuana on LSD and cocaine and heroin God open that sack anyone full of money I've been looking for street gangs ever since it was amazing every one of those gang members started coming to church and praying through and they started bringing everybody in the neighborhood and the first thing you know we've already had a hundred twenty people receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost and the church is sitting there offended there's something wrong here yes there's something wrong there's a harvest killer sitting on our fuse who are you to tell God who we can save who are you to tell God who can come to the house my god they're too black to come the house of God here are there too Brown to come the house of God here are they're too messed up to come to God here they come God sent whosoever will let him come and take him the waters of life freely if you're gonna have revival you're gonna open your house to everybody everybody is welcome in the house of God you can't pick and choose who you want to save let me let me make it you can have some brass tacks here okay there was tension in the preachers house they had a grown daughter twenty-something years old and I don't usually stay in the pastor's home but in this case I was we were and we'd go to dinner it would be really tight around with kids I liked preachers kids I'm on the preacher kids side if you are a member of this church you put your hand on Kony's kids make make God put you in the lowest Hale there is leave the preachers kids alone he's got to forgive his kids the same thing he forgives you're not hitting kids for I told my church I said my kid don't set the standard here I do and I said my kids are going to mess up like your kids mess up I'm gonna forgive them like I'm gonna give your kids and the moment you jump on my kids or something they do I'm gonna jump on your kid for everything they didn't do it I said you're not gonna send my kids to hell you're not going mistreat my kid whether you like it or not praise God and if you're a saint here that always looking to attack the preachers kids you better be careful cuz the wrath of God gonna fall on you you leave the preachers kids alone my god let him get in trouble it ain't no fun living holy all your life knowing [name redacted] he's gonna need some help along the way he's a good kid and I saw come to supper and I thought I had a blue shirt on solid blue shirt sitting there eating eat some soup and it's real tight around the table about the time the preachers gonna take her spoon in slams it against the bowl and make she said do you know that my daddy preaches against him colored shirts I said I just keep eating my soup I said yes ma'am I did because he was the preacher that preached that if you wore a colored shirt you had homosexual tendencies but when he asked me to preach for him I had a colored shirt on and if he didn't want me to preach farm and a colored shirt he shouldn't have asked me while I was wearing a colored shirt now most preachers are kind of dumb but you ain't got it done preacher here okay I'm a pretty smart preacher I got a BS degree in chemical engineering I got almost a master's degree in biomedical engineering do you realize how smart I really am y'all don't look very impressed and I just kept beating us in and after while she swam the spoon against the bowl again she said well you got a colored shirt on right now look she said your head read this revival then it started in my feet this burning sensation it worked to thrill my calves my thighs I threw my spoon against the bowl Wow I said let's talk about who's entering revival I said Go Daddy knew that I wore colored shirt well he asked me to come preach and I said if you think I'm gonna wear a white shirt here just to prove his doctrine correct you're wrong and I dare him to call me a queer I'll punch his lights out right here sometimes you gotta stand up to ignorance sometimes you got to stand up to this tomfoolery their harvest killers and penticoff everywhere you go but go to the foolish doctrines we have said sir if you don't me to preach this revival tell me I'll pack my car and I'll leave tonight because I don't need to be here I got 50 more revivals to get to and I'm here because you asked me to come and we're having revival we've already had over 150 people get the Holy Ghost and if you don't want to revive I'll tell me he said we might real close and I I said fine I'm out of here I packed my and I left for seven years they never had another person yet the Holy Ghost they kill their own harvest we have got in Pentecost to get killing our harvest and let them have a chance to grow somebody needs to shout hey can I have an amen the Israelites were enslaved by million-million did not lose one soldier in seven years all they had to do was destroy the Harvard year after year after year revival after revival all you got to do is destroy your heart and you'll never grow how many preachers on the church tonight do everything right they preach the truth have at it I thank God for truth preaching churches I thank God for being who are not afraid to stand and preach without fear without favor and without compromise preach it brother if this hour you better learn how to preach how the devil will take over amen somebody shout amen preach the truth we have churches that fast we pray how prayer meetings we teach Bible studies we run buses we do outreach we believe in hold ELISA we have a man of God for a pastor yet we don't grow year after year after year you know why because there's somebody among us that's killing our harvest we must do all the things that I've just mentioned but we must also guard against the enemy coming in at harvest time now I've been pastoring in Wichita for 35 years I'm not a novice I have seen this scenario in Wichita happen over and over and over again the devil never has anything new just I can I can I can almost tell you when we first have a mighty outpouring of the Holy Ghost because the same people and the same spirits rise up every time we get in a fasting praying reaping mode and they get you so distracted that you don't have time to deal with the harvest because they create a problem just before harvest every year every revival they're gonna rise up against you and I have a tea men the devil does not mind us having good Church he didn't mind us have a good Church oh we can shout and talking tongues and pop my neck and do the whirlybird and jump and skip oh how I love every minute of it he doesn't mind us having a shower shirt he doesn't mind us running the aisles and climb the walls and bite the ceiling that's winking from the shed he the devil as long as you don't have a harvest doing it the devil the devil does not mind you fasting and pray and as long as he can put a harvest killer among us before we have a harvest amen I know we're up I speak because I've traveled enough and been enough churches and the districts and the state to let you to understand one thing I see frustrated preachers all over the pentacle the movement just time a preacher tell me if they had 50 people pray through and you go to the church three months later and they're all gone because they've been run off by the harvest killers don't mind you fasting for you as long as he can put a harvest killer among us the devil does not mind us having our act together we can help we can have our administrative act together we can have our protocol together we have our Usher's in place we can have our deacons in place we can have everything going perfect and everything running smoothly and he doesn't care what kind of administration you have or what kind of order you have in your service you can have your music program together you have your choir together you have your nursing program together we have we have 43 different departments in our church each one has a department head he didn't mind you have an organization he didn't mind any of that as long as there can be a harvest killer among us he'll let you do anything that you need to do as long as there's no harvest the devil doesn't care what kind of ministration you have he didn't care how good your preaching and preach he didn't care how popular the man of God can be as long as he can plant a harvest killer among you and keep you from having a harvest he will do that and keep you distracted praise God how important is the harvest in the scenario of this hour the harvest is everything I said the harvest is everything number one the harvest validates the church praise God don't tell me you are a church if you're not reaping a harvest of souls praise God harvest it validates a the whole house of God it validates the taking up of tithes and offerings the harvest validates of building new buildings the harvest validates a having revivals the harvest validates the traveling trees that come through but where there's no harvest all of this is in vain praise God we must harvest in the 2002 survive we've got to have a harvest in 35 years in Wichita we've had 35 consecutive years of church growth 35 years of financial growth God has blessed us we have 31 acres right downtown of the corner of two for weight a highways we have a 75 we have 80 some thousand square foot a building we have 25 buses up we're trying to reach our city the best way know how we do a direct mail campaign we not thousands of door but what good would that be if there was a harvest killer every time we had one harvest validates the house of God number two the harvest validates the pastor God called you to be a soul winner soul winning is more important than how good your sermon is some of the greatest speakers amongst pastor some of the smallest churches in our districts we major on our preaching rather than on the harvest I don't mind good preaching I love good preacher we heard some of the greatest preacher last night I got he won't have to preach that much I'll come home and preach it I'm not have to study this weekend I already got my sermon for this weekend just we haven't we have the greatest preachers in the world apostolic one God Jesus name preachers the world cannot compete with us we have not only the Word of God but we have the anointing and the Shekinah of God on our lives I mean I hear our preachers testify and they're better sermons than some of the denominators I mean some of the great preachers up that the world looks at they they're not even worried they worthy to pack some of our Bibles around but they're they're harvested and ours is being destroyed I've told somebody the other day I said the greatest thing that happened in Pentecostal ranks is that we have about a hundred to two hundred churches go from a hundred to a thousand in just a short period of time and those pastors that were always criticizing and killing everybody else's harvest that be so worried trying to take care of their harvest they wouldn't have to worry about you I get I get weary with being called a charismatic I get weary of being called a liberal I get weary but being saying a faint like I don't believe that meets breezier agrees pole to slinky or skunk stink so I get I get weary with their little comments about how liberal I and how charismatic I am some of them people wouldn't even qualify to teach in my Sunday school I think I don't they got a criticize because the reason they criticize is they don't have a harvest of their own so they got to tear down your harvest in order to criticize you in order to validate themself but the heart your harvest will validate you as a man of God the harvest validates everything within the Church of the Living God it validates the people of God it lets it list Jesus know what is really in your heart when you allow a new convert to come in and grow and you not run him off and destroy him somebody said Amen the harvest validates the child of God and the Pew that you sit on do you let somebody that's not like you sit on the same pew or do you move across the house I God because you don't want to sit spot somebody somebody shout Amen I thank God we have we have an Asian ministry and most of them speak Tagalog and in our house and they won't no pastor will we be welcome in your house or do we need to go start our separate church I said there's only one church praise God there's no such thing as a Filipino Church there's no such thing as a black church there's no such thing there's one chart one faith and one baptism one God and one body somebody shouted a man why can't we all go to the house of God together the governor was looking for a house of God and he had gone to several churches trying to find a house of God after he was elected and so he decided to try this one church they had said some things about it and told me he shouldn't be going there but he said nah least I've tried a lot of churches and haven't found one I'm satisfied with and so he went to this church and his entourage a came in and one of the ushers quickly saw the governor and his group come in and he and and the governor's coming down the aisle who won't settle about the third growth and oh she quickly came in and asked the people that clear this road clear this room and and while the usher was trying to clear the road for the governor city and the pastor saw what was going on and the pastor stepped off the platform and went back said Sileo she said he said what are you doing he's a he's I'm clearing this road for the governor sit down he said let the governor find his own seat these people were here first we don't save seats for nobody here let him find another seat their governor walk up with a pastor he said what did you say he said I said governor if you come here to church you've got to find your own seat we don't save seat for dignitaries here said everybody's welcome in the house of God and everybody has an equal opportunity to come the house of God governor said I thought that's what you said he said this is where I want to go to church I'm tired of going to churches and the people the preachers in the church trying to treat me like something that I'm not I'm here to worship Jesus Christ I'm not here to be a dignitary praise God let me tell you something everybody ought to be walking in the house I got last summer last summer we had one of our soul winners brought about a dozen young people to a house they got and brought him in and set him on the front row and it came in with tennis shoes on and basketball shorts and nothing else and set him on the front row and we shouted and danced they got to shout and dance and with us and everyone I'm over a course of about two weeks receive the baptism the Holy Ghost and got to run it was a it was oh it was terrible they was running the island basketball shorts without a shirt oh my god oh my brother don't come right now because they don't think I've gone off the deep end and I got in a church I said I dare somebody to say some of these kids that's running these aisles I dare you I said if you mess with these kids I'll boot you out of this church they're just as welcome here as you are praise God and three months later there's all wearing neckties and church and enrolled in Bible College let me tell you something young people a chance of the Holy Ghost and they want somebody that loves their we don't need hard as killers oh my gosh three minutes and I want to tell you about where I came from I got a full ride scholarship Louisiana Tech University and I had a pair of blue Bermuda shorts it was in style hadn't been washed in two or three weeks but they was in style and it was 1967 was burning down military installations burning cities marching and protesting in Washington Vietnam War was in its heyday and we raised inhales and I was going to college to raise hell and so I went to college to raise hell and I rolled in college and opened the door my first dorm room and they was a weirdo he was a weirdo he had blue jeans on he had hush puppy shoes he had a long-sleeve shirt on he had hair all in his hair and his hair was parted and combed over and he was shaved slick as a whistle he was weird and at first three words he said praise the Lord I said praise ah whoo I want to change dorm rooms right there I didn't want I didn't want no room with a cult member this dude was weird I mean he he wouldn't he was not in the end crowd I promise I shot away from him I was afraid this dude's gonna put a jinx on me or a spell or something and got my bed and got my desk and and then one night he came in from the library and he witnessed closet he got this there's a bathroom rug laid it on the front of his bed he got down on his knees and my eyes got big as saucers god what does he do it and he got the mumbling something and I'd never seen anything like it and I heard him call my name and and I stood up and I walked over to him and and chills going up and down my spine and I was gonna kick him in the ribs and something stopped me and I walk out the door and I slammed that dorm door and shook an eight-story door and two o'clock the morning I came back in snuck back in my room and lay down and tears started running down my face I couldn't understand what was going on and the next morning I said what was you doing last night what do you mean I said what was you doing on your knees I said what quit calling my name and in prayers I said that bothers me he said I I'll just pray for it he's like I don't need prayer like that it scares me he's what you need to come to house of God with me I said I'm gonna come to house it out with you one time and I went one time to the house of God I went to a little church that that had had cement splits in it that it was split field praise God they run about 30 people because they had split so many times and people got run off and it was a weird Church to begin with it still is a weird Church and and I went and TG McNeely was preaching a revival in this church and I didn't know TG McNeely from Adam but he preached on the pale horse rider dance and Hale followed behind him and dad i sued hail and with dragon head you know how teaching McNeely can prepare not scare the life out of what he got through I turn to run out the door and instead of running out the door I found myself kneeling at the altar pray and he's crying my eyeballs out and repent for everything I have ever done and I thought I was gonna do and and I didn't go back to that revival till TG might mean that I wasn't about to listen to him again but I was hooked and I started to come to the house of God and I got baptized and got the Holy Ghost and and I come and I sat on the front row right here where this young man is in this suit and I sit there with my blue Bermuda shorts on barefooted hairy underarms everybody else and the pole preacher if he could have just sit me down and explained holiness to me I didn't even what holiness meant muscle s beat holy how didn't you know what it meant I had been to church and since I was a kid and your kid you don't understand what homeless is it and I thought it was normal all about school they dressed the same way as I did nicely and I thought wrong with them he always had these long pants on I thought maybe they had polio Lee was hiding her legs and I praise God and dad and the preacher would come and he had preached holiness and he would spit all over me trying to preach homeless and I were praising God while he preached holiness he didn't call me aside and say look up you didn't wear a shirt from the house said God did he put on some shoes wear some socks told me that and then all the saints they try to run me home and I didn't have enough money to buy behind them and so they had a contest and I had a five-week content I brought 72 college kids to the house of God and five weeks of and didn't win the Bible the color all the church members draw they had said to three visitors none of them was new visitors I brought 72 new visitors and didn't win a Bible and I would sneak my roommates Bible off the shelf when he was not there and I would read his Bible and I'd put it back had another contest I want to bring the most people to Sunday school in the morning he's gonna win a Scofield Bible I was bringing sixty college kids a month to the house of God they was treating me like a redheaded stepchild I fight my way and I came to the house of God all summer like that nobody could come and tell me how to live nobody told me how to dress nobody offered me a Bible study nobody have anything to do with it and I was bringing in car loads of college kids and and they'd say Pat Morel said that's a weirdest church we ever been to and finally one day I found out what hold it was all about I started cleaning up and the church flip had fight to the church and and and it's amazing that I lived for God because there were so many harvest killers in the house of God I'm preaching to you you better check out your attitude check out your spirit because you might be a harvest killer you might kill somebody that could live for God if they were given a chance to live for God somebody said amen let me let me name four areas let me name four areas of harvest killers very quickly number number one the number one harvest killer is quirky doctrines I believe in one god jesus name baptism begin filling of the Holy Ghost can I have an amen I believe in wearing any cow shirt you want to wear I have an amen we had we ought to be careful about about our quirky little doctrines that have no meaning to the Bible and have no meaning of the house I God have no meaning to the world and all can I have an amen break the water preach all of the word preach everything in the word how many times has this church or any Church about to have revival in a case of adultery pop up in the house of God and it distracts everybody and you got to take time to get all that stuff healed and by then all the visitors are gone can I have we need to get in rhythm to what God's doing when visitors come we need to be focused on winning people to God can I have it in there there's always listen you got you've got seven days a week to commit adultery don't come in a Gulch on Saturday night before Sunday morning somebody shout Amen number three rebellion rebellion rebellion rebellion every Church has preacher haters in them let me tell you so let me tell all your preacher haters one thing you better be careful about hating the man of God because one day a man of God has got to present you to Jesus Christ amen there are people sitting on our pews that they resent the preacher they don't want the preacher to be successful they don't want the preacher to have revival they don't want the preacher drive a new car they don't want the preacher to go fishing everything's against the preacher against the preacher against the preacher you better be careful if you're a preacher hater in the half of harbor God's gonna have a man of God to guide this harvest carnality carnality carnality we have a hundred visitors start coming to church and nobody's praying for three months and we're carnal and we can't get anybody prayed through and then investor's leave we all pray through and shout but there's no vistas there we got to get in rhythm who like God's doing it we better be careful about long-term carnality destroying the will of God for our church now I can't stop here unless I talk about a solution to the problem can I have an amen look at judges chapter six and verse number seven judges chapter six and verse number seven and it came to pass when the tulip is replied on the Lord because of the Midianite that the Lord sent a prophet the best way to kill partners killers is it by God to send a prophet to the house of God you are one you are one prophetic utterance away from having the greatest revival you've ever had praise God brother brother Tony's failed stay away from preachers that's always naked either and tell you what you can't do but you need to have a man of God look at you an hour and say you can have revival you're gonna have an outpouring of oh we are one prophetic utterance away you don't need preachers coming to your church and telling you the days of revival are over you need a man of God coming and take this in the hour to have revival God is in the saving business God he's gonna give you an outpouring of the Holy Ghost mercy I don't have chill bumps I got ice berg right now praise God look at verse number 11 and that came an angel the Lord and sent under an oak which was an or prop that pertained to Joe s and his son get in first week by the winepress to hide from the Midianites and the angel of the Lord appeared to him and sending him the Lord is with thee thou mighty man of Valor and to get it said unto Him o my lord if the Lord be with us then why is all this befallen us and where be all his miracles which our fathers told herself saying didn't ask the Lord bring us from the land of Egypt but now the Lord had forsaken us and deliver us in the hands of the Midianites and the Lord looked upon him and said go in this thy might and thou shall save Israel from the hand of the midnight have not i sent thee we need hey God said pastor listen to the forces of this world and the forces of the man that saved the days of revival her over but we need a man that for years thought if God it's not with us why is all this the fall on us and we gotta stand when everything looks bleak and have a man say we're gonna have revival we're gonna have revival we're gonna have revival folks hey everybody rejoice we're gonna have revival we had a minor setback we're gonna have revival we've had a minor problem we're gonna have revival problem temporary that would revival it comes in a mighty way I went to Wichita 35 years ago we had nineteen people depressed I've
