But it says, "But my God >> shall supply >> all your need." Not your wants, but everything you need, he will supply. Not he might supply, but he shall supply. Have anybody Does anybody ever known God to lie? >> I've not according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Tonight, I feel a spirit of victory here tonight. I feel a gift of faith is going to operate that operate here tonight in Jesus name. But the gift of faith is not going to come through one man or one person, but it's going to come from having the right view of our father. Having the right view of God tonight, I believe is going to produce faith that a miracle can happen in someone's life this very this very evening. If you believe that with me, would you lift your hands, put your Bibles down, lift your hands for just a moment, but most importantly, with the level of your voice be the indication of your faith tonight.

GOD CARES ABOUT YOU TONIGHT. OH, in Jesus name. In Jesus name. In Jesus name. Somebody said in Jesus name. Amen. You may be seated tonight. In Jesus name. Amen. The Lord's going to do something this evening. I remember as a kid hating and despising the dentist. hated going to the dentist because every time I went, I would leave numb. I hate when they, you know, they they you go in and the the common problem if if my mother didn't knock out my front tooth, if I wasn't there for that reason, true story, and you can ask her about that after church tonight. It's a wonderful day in the carpenter house. I wasn't there repairing a a half front tooth. I was there many times to um to fix cavities. Fix cavities. And you know, if you're the special type of kid like me, you get the silver tooth in the back of you know the silver teeth in the back of your mouth. And just to let all the kids know, those are worth double when you lose those. So when you put them under your pillow, expect double whatever you normally receive for those teeth in Jesus name. You know, they go you go and they fix this that you know they they they're going to fix a spot on your tooth and they take that needle and they inject it right above I feel chills all over my body. I don't think it's the Holy Ghost. They inject it in your gums right here and you begin to feel it up here in your temple. Like it's just right right here. and they begin to shoot it up and it's just like, "Yeah, okay. Let's get this over with. Just do it quickly." And they're like, "Hey, we haven't even started yet." And I'm like, "Okay, that's that's wonderful." And then, you know, they you I remember one day we I don't know why these memories just are very vivid in my mind. One time I had a cavity fixed. It was during school in service and then I remember having to go eat with the teachers with my parents. My like half my face is drilled over here. And then, you know, the numbing like wears off hours later only to find out while you're numb, Brother Reggie, you bit your bottom lip off. And it's like, yeah, great. But at least I got my tooth fixed. You know, that's I hate I hate it vividly. I hate I remember uh many times. I mean, many times, but every tooth I've I've lost had had a cavity on it. Then, you know, thinking that we got rid of that stage of our li of my life. I got married and and Flannry relocates to Marble. Thank the Lord. and and uh she gets set up with a doctor and a dentist and and about a couple years into our marriage, she she said, "Nolan, you have not been to the dentist since we've been married." And I was like, "Yeah, that's like when I I'm a man. I put away childish things, you know. I all those things are behind me, you know." And and she says, "No, you're going to the dentist." I'm like, "No, no, I'm not." You know, and uh she said, "Yeah, I'm going to call." She puts it on speaker and they, you know, it takes a second to give them all your information. They're like, "Okay, what are you doing at 9:30 December 27th at 2028?" I don't know, like, you know, they're booked out so far at advanced. And and so finally, she's like, "Hey, he has not been to the dentist in years." And I'm thinking, well, those are for good reasons. And and so she uh she makes the appointment. I go, and you know, thinking this is going to, you know, be very easy and routine. They said, uh, Nolan, uh, how, you know, I told them my age, everything else, and they said, Nolan, you've got, I was 20. Let's see. Lord, help me, Jesus. I was, uh, how old was I when I got when we got married? 23. So, I was 25. They're saying, Nolan, you're 25, but you have seven cavities. I'm thinking, how in the world I have seven cavities as a 25y old? I've got teeth problems and maybe the Lord will, you know, help me overcome that. But, you know, some people don't even have seven teeth in their head. But I had 70 I had seven seven cavities and it's a terrible thing. I love I love sweets. I love I love white chocolate. That's that's the uh that's the uh the the the you know the the temptation I always seem to fall in. That's not and again, Pastor always says it, don't get me any white chocolate. Don't get them candles. I don't need more cavities. All right. So, keep them things away. And I look back and I and you're thinking, Lord, where are we going to the gift of faith? And I have no clue. Hopefully, we'll get there. But I uh I look back over my childhood and and where does my sweet love for sweets begin? And I vividly remember the good old concession stand at Apostolic Christian Academy. That's where my demise in the area of teeth and dental began. I remember my love for sweets was birthed when I was a kid. And I I remember if I could paint the picture for you while you know ACA was playing ball. I remember going up them maroon stairs turning the corner and the second set of maroon second set of stairs and you go and you'd look over the gymnasium. That's where I watched every single game of my life in middle elementary and up to middle school in that gymnasium was right in front of the concession stand. Remember every ball game it Sister Johnson was usually the one running the concession stand. I remember hanging on to the the maroon countertops and my feet would hit about where the maroon stripe was on the the gray wall there. All the black marks were from me going up there to fill this cavity tooth filled head with some sweets. And I remember coming to sticking my head over that countertop as a kid with my buck teeth. And crazy enough, I when I grew as I was growing up, I was always 100% in two areas. That was my two front teeth and my two ears. It was like them things grew out and then my body began to catch up. And we're almost there. We're almost there. We're almost there. But I just remember this was before the days of of ca giving your kid, you know, lots of cash and and I don't ever remember carrying cash. I don't ever remember carrying credit cards. I don't even know if that was a thing then. Uh but we operated then by something called tabs. Tabs. Now since I'm athletic athletic director, we no longer have tabs. All right? Then things never get paid. And I Sister Ivans, the reason this message has come about, Sister Ivans was like, "All right, so there's some kids saying that, you know, just put it on my tab." I'm thinking, "No, we don't do tabs anymore here at the academy. No, we're going to pay for it. Pay for it now. We'll charge you interest." It's just an amazing It's amazing thing. But what what I've come to preach about tonight is the confidence I had as a kid, Brother Landry, walking up to the counter, sticking my head above that maroon countertop and looking at Sister Johnson in the face and saying, "I want this. I want this. I want this and I want that." She would gather it up, put it on there, and I would again just kind of put my arm and just all of it would come falling on the floor. bring some friends up to the countertop and said, "Hey, boys, whatever you want. It's on me. Go ahead and get it." You know, Sister Johnson's like, "Okay, you know, just give it out." And Sister Johnson's like, "All right, it would be $20." All right, $20. You have the money, Nolan? No, I don't. But here's what I would say, and it's going to help us preach tonight. She would say, "It's $20, Nol." I would say, "All right, put it on my father's tab. Put it on my father's tab." And tonight, Sister Helms, I've not come to preach about cavities. I've not come to preach about concession stands. I MIGHT PREACH A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHITE CHOCOLATE, BUT HERE'S WHAT I'VE come to preach about. I'VE COME TO PREACH ABOUT WE'VE GOT A FATHER'S TAB THAT WE CAN TAP INTO TONIGHT. AND HE SH HE HE SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES IN GLORY. I'VE COME TO TELL SOMEBODY IF YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD, YOU COULD COME TO THE ALTAR TONIGHT AND PUT ANYTHING YOU HAVE ON THE FATHER'S TAB. YOU CAN PUT YOUR SICKNESS TONIGHT AND PUT IT ON THE FATHER'S TAB. YOU COULD PUT YOUR FLAWS AND YOUR FAILURES, ALL YOUR MESS UPS, ALL YOUR YOUR HANG-UPS, ALL YOUR ADDICTIONS UPON THE father's tab. >> Thankful tonight. >> Tonight, you can receive whatever you need >> because we have we have exactly what we need. Anything you need tonight, I'VE COME TO DECLARE THIS IN the Holy Ghost. Anything you need, and now I'm NOT SAYING WHAT YOU WANT, but what YOU NEED IS ALREADY PAID FOR THROUGH THE FATHER'S TAB. THROUGH THE WORK ON CALVARY, THROUGH HIS WORK BY SHEDDING HIS BLOOD, WITH THE STRIPES UPON HIS BACK. I'VE COME TO TELL SOMEBODY WITH A GIFT OF FAITH TONIGHT THAT YOUR HEALING IS ALREADY PAID FOR. YOUR FORGIVENESS IS ALREADY PAID FOR. YOUR HEALING FROM ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION IS already paid for. the confidence this boy, this cavityfilled boy would have. Walking up them steps knowing whatever I needed was already paid for. Because here's, and I've not come to just boast about who my daddy is because everybody doesn't have Kenneth Carpenter for a daddy, but everybody in this room tonight DOES HAVE A GOOD FATHER. I KNOW YOUR FATHER HERE ON EARTH MAY HAVE FAILED YOU, BUT LET ME INTRODUCE to you TO A FATHER THAT HIS SIDEWALKS ARE MADE OF GOLD. LET ME INTRODUCE TO YOU A FATHER THAT'S NEVER FAILED YOU OR NEVER FORSAKEN YOU. I WANT YOU TO HAVE THE RIGHT PERSPECTIVE TONIGHT THAT YOU HAVE A GOOD FATHER AND HE DOES NOT WANT YOU LIVING BELOW HIS PROMISE. HE DOES NOT WANT YOU LIVING BELOW HIS WILL FOR YOUR LIFE. And tonight I've come to preach to us about getting the right perspective of our father. IF OUR FAITH TONIGHT WILL BE ELEVATED TO the place where we HAVE THE RIGHT PERSPECTIVE OF WHO OUR father is, I believe that's the place where we will enter into the miraculous. SOME PEOPLE HAVE THE VIEW OF THEIR HEAVENLY FATHER THAT I I GUESS I HAVE TO LIVE THIS WAY OR I GUESS GOD WANTS ME TO BEAR THIS CROSS BUT I'VE COME TO TELL YOU NOT THE FATHER THAT I HAVE. HERE'S WHAT OUR FATHER THINKS ABOUT US IN JEREMIAH 29:11. FOR I KNOW THE THOUGHTS THAT I THINK TOWARDS YOU, SAYETH THE LORD, THOUGHTS OF PEACE AND NOT OF EVIL TO GIVE YOU AN expected end. That's what our father thinks about US TONIGHT. HERE'S WHAT OUR FATHER WANTS US TO BE. NAY, IN ALL THINGS, ROMANS 8 AND 37. IN ALL THESE THINGS, WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him THAT LOVED US. THAT'S THE TYPE OF FATHER WE SERVE. HE WANTS YOU TO HAVE VICTORY. IT'S HIS WILL FOR GOD. IT'S HIS WILL FOR YOU TO HAVE VICTORY, TOO. That's not to say we won't have problems. I've not come to tell you that when you live for God, everything's going to be perfect. BUT I'VE COME TO TELL US THAT WE ARE LIVING IN some things and living THROUGH SOME THINGS THAT GOD HAS ALREADY PAID FOR. AND SOME OF US TONIGHT HAVE NOT TAPPED IN INTO THE FATHER'S TAB AND DECLARED VICTORY OVER YOUR MIND AND VICTORY OVER THINGS THAT HAVE FOUGHT YOUR FAMILY AND VICTORY OVER THINGS THAT HAVE PLAGUED YOUR CHILDREN. I'M TALKING ABOUT A FATHER'S TAB. It's already paid for. >> When you know who the father is, >> when you know who the father is, we can run to an altar and put absolutely anything on his tab. Proverbs 18:10 says, "The name of the Lord is a strong tower. The righteous run into it and is safe." I've come to pray. I feel FAITH IN THIS ROOM TONIGHT THAT YOU'VE BEEN RUNNING FROM YOUR PROBLEMS. BUT WHY DON'T YOU BRING YOUR PROBLEMS TO THE FATHER'S TAB? WHY DON'T YOU YOU'VE TRIED TO TALK TO EVERYBODY ABOUT YOUR PROBLEMS, BUT WHY DON'T TONIGHT YOU TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND THAT IS BRING IT TO THE FATHER WITH HIS ARMS OPEN. I KNOW IT'S MESSY AND AND MESSED UP AND ALL YOUR HANGS UP HANG UP AND ALL YOUR FLAWS AND FAILURES. I've come to preach tonight to someone who's in need >> and preach to you about a father that's never failed you. If we could get the right view of him, we can get the right view of our father. Something begins to happen. There's some confidence that comes when you have the right view of your father. >> Going up those maroon steps, I knew that anything I wanted and anything I needed was mine because who my father is. I've come to tell you that your father wants you to have victory and he wants you to have victory tonight. Want you to have victory tonight in Jesus name. That there's some things we're GOING TO GIVE OVER TO GOD. I CAN'T PROMISE YOU THAT GOD'S GOING TO HEAL YOU OF CANCER TONIGHT. I CAN'T PROMISE YOU THAT THE NEXT time that you go to the doctor, IT'S GOING TO BE DIFFERENT. BUT I PROM I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT WE SERVE A GOD THAT CAN HEAL YOU TONIGHT. AND I PROMISE YOU, WE SERVE A GOD THAT CAN THE NEXT TIME YOU GO TO THE DOCTOR, THE REPORT IS DIFFERENT. WHY? BECAUSE WE HAVE A FATHER'S TAB THAT IS OPEN FOR US TO PUT ANYTHING we we need. But none of those things happen if we don't first have the right view of who your father is. >> The right view is where we have to start with the father's tab and who our father is. Joshua 6 and2 and THE LORD SAID UNTO JOSHUA, THE FIRST THING I'M GOING TO TELL YOU BEFORE YOU SEE THE WALLS COME down is to just see. Need you to work on your vision for just a moment. I need you to have the right view. IT. I'M GOING TO START THIS WHOLE MIRACULOUS story with sea. I have given >> unto thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valor. THE FIRST THING I NEED YOU TO DO IS FOR YOU TO WORK ON YOUR VISION. I NEED MY PEOPLE, JOSHUA, TO WORK ON their view. I need you to work ON YOUR VIEW OF VICTORY. THE FIRST THING WE HAVE TO DO WITH THE FATHER'S TAB, I NEED YOU TO WORK ON IS THE VIEW OF WHICH YOUR FATHER works from. Before we're ever going to SEE THE MIRACULOUS, FIRST I WANT US TO SEE THE VIEW OF WHICH OUR FATHER works from. WHAT I'VE COME TO TELL US TONIGHT IS THAT OUR FATHER IS NEVER AT A DISADVANTAGE. OUR I DON'T CARE HOW HOW TALL THE WALLS ARE. I DON'T CARE HOW DEEP THE MEDICAL BILLS ARE AND HOW DEEP THE MEDICAL PROBLEMS ARE. OUR FATHER NE NEVER WORKS FROM A PLACE OF A DISADVANTAGE OR A PLACE OF BEING AN UNDERDOG. NO, NO, NO. YOU CAN GIVE ME THE WALLS OF JERICHO, HOWEVER TALL AND HOWEVER WIDE AND HOWEVER THICK. BUT OUR FATHER, HERE'S MY VIEW OF HIM. OUR FATHER NEVER IS AT A DISADVANTAGE. Our father is never at a disadvantage because he looks to his people that are slaves and wanderers. That's all they've ever been. That's all they were born into. That's all they've ever been since they've been alive. They are slaves and wanderers. And now God says, "See, I have given in thy thy hand Jericho and the king thereof." We got to have the right view from which our father sits. And we've got to have the right view of ourselves. It's not in OUR ABILITY TO MUSTER UP THE GIFT OF FAITH. It's not in our ABILITY TO MUSTER UP A MIRACLE. NOW, THERE ARE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE THE POWER TO FIX ON YOUR OWN. AND GOD'S NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU A MIRACLE FOR SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN FIX YOURSELF. >> BUT THERE'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN BEFORE WE SEE THE WALLS OF JERICHO FALL IN EACH AND EVERY ONE OF OUR LIVES. and that IS TO REALIZE WHO YOU BELONG TO. I KNOW YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'VE BEEN A SLAVE. YOU JUST GOT INTO CHURCH AND YOU DON'T THINK THAT EVERYTHING'S FOR YOU. BUT NO, NOT WHEN YOU HAVE THE FATHER THAT I HAVE BECAUSE THE FATHER THAT I HAVE SAYS TO US, I I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN WANDERING AROUND JUST FOLLOWING MOSES. I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN AND FOLLOWING JOSHUA. I NEED TO I NEED YOU TO SEE who you are. >> You're going to be conquerors. THE FIRST VIEW IS TO see have the view of which your father works from. THE FATHER DOES NOT WORK FROM A DISADVANTAGE. He is always he is always HE IS ALWAYS THE ONE WHO WILL win the battle. Not an underdog or AT A DISADVANTAGE BECAUSE THE FATHER SAYS I KNOW YOU'RE LOOKING AT SOMETHING THAT IS BIG AND SOMETHING THAT IS TALL SOMETHING THAT IS WIDE. BUT THE FATHER WORKS FROM THIS VIEWPOINT. NOT I WILL GIVE NOT I'M GOING TO GIVE. NOT IN THE FUTURE I WILL GIVE. NOT IF YOU'RE A GOOD BOY OR A GOOD PEOPLE I'LL GIVE. NOT IN A FUTURE TENSE. BUT GOD SPEAKS TO HIS PEOPLE AND SAYS SEE I have given. >> Not I will do it. Not I'm going to do it. NOT IN THE FUTURE. NOT IN ANOTHER GENERATION. NO. HE SAYS I NEED YOU TO SEE THAT EVERYTHING you need has already been given to you. THE HEALING HAS ALREADY BEEN GIVEN TO YOU. THE VICTORY HAS ALREADY BEEN GIVEN TO YOU. I'VE COME TO TELL US TONIGHT WHEN WE GET THE RIGHT VIEW OF OUR FATHER, YOU REALIZE EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS IN YOUR HAND. Everything you need >> is in your hand. Because it doesn't make sense to walk when you don't have the right view. If you don't have the RIGHT VIEW, WHY WHY YOU walk around the walls of Jericho? When you realize and have the right view of your father that he has already given you what you need, it makes this walk living for God a whole lot easier >> because it makes this life easier when you know you serve a father that is good. You serve a father that is a miracle working God. Maybe your Jericho tonight is a sickness. come to tell us that your victory has already been paid for tonight by the stripes upon his back. >> First Peter 2:24 says, "Who his own self bore our sins in his own body on the tree that we being dead to sin should live unto righteousness by whose stripes, and I've always quoted this, you are healed." But no, it's much better than that because we got to work on our view. It's past tense. Ye were healed. I'VE COME TO PREACH TO SOMEONE TONIGHT ABOUT A HEALING. THERE IS A TAB THAT IS OPEN THAT YE were healed. WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME, NOLAN? I'VE COME TO TELL YOU THAT YOUR HEALING IS ALREADY PAID FOR. THAT YOUR MIRACLE IS ALREADY PAID FOR. THAT YOU HEAVEN IN YOUR HANDS, BUT I'VE JUST COME TO ASK YOU TO WORK ON YOUR VIEW OF THE FATHER. THAT HE HAS A TAB THAT'S OPEN THAT'S READY FOR YOUR SICKNESS, ready for your disease. But if you first don't see that we have a God who's never an underdog, >> everything else will not make sense. Ye shall compass verse number three of Joshua 6. Ye shall compass this city all the men of war and go about the city once. Thou shalt do this for six days. Walking around the walls will not make sense if you don't first see you're walking with victory that's already been paid for. >> That's good. >> Walking with a disease IN YOUR BODY INTO the house OF GOD WILL NOT MAKE SENSE UNLESS YOU REALIZE THAT YOU'RE WALKING WITH VICTORY ALREADY GIVEN. I don't CARE HOW MANY FUNERALS WE DO. I DON'T CARE HOW MANY NEGATIVE DOCTORS REPORT. I STILL BELIEVE AND I'M STILL GOING TO PREACH ABOUT A GOD THAT CAN HEAL YOU IF IT'S HIS WILL. I STILL BELIEVE THAT GOD CAN HEAL SOMEBODY OF CANCER. AND I STILL BELIEVE WHY I'VE SEEN TOO MUCH FOR ANYTHING TO CHANGE MY MIND. IF YOU HAVE A DISEASE IN YOUR BODY, GOD CAN HEAL YOU TONIGHT. IF YOU HAVE A SICKNESS IN YOUR MIND, GOD CAN HEAL you tonight because I know who our father is. >> Walking around will not make sense. If you don't first see you're walking with victory, >> the praising while you're sick in your body will not make sense if you don't have the right view of your father. Faithfulness to the house OF GOD, THE PLACE THAT CLAIMS THAT YOU COULD BE HEALED of anything you walk in the doors with, will not make sense if you don't first have the right view. AND THE SEVEN PRIESTS SHALL BEAR before the ark. BEAR BEFORE THE ARK SEVEN TRUMPETS OF RAM'S horn in the seventh day ye shall COMPASS THE CITY SEVEN times and the priest shall blow the trumpets. I've preached this before AND I FEEL LIKE IT FITS GOOD in tonight. But the ram's horns were used AND SO WAS THE SILVER TRUMPETS WERE used in the Bible days. The silver trumpets would would be USED FOR DECLARING THINGS as of like war. THEY WENT TO WAR OF SOME AGAINST SOME PEOPLE AND AND God would speak to THEM AND THEY BLEW THE SILVER TRUMPETS AND WHAT THAT KNEW EVERYBODY KNEW IF THEY HEARD THE SOUND OF THE SILVER TRUMPETS, HEY, IT'S war time. Let's pick up our swords and it's TIME TO FIGHT. BUT GOD SAYS, HEY, I NEED YOU TO WORK ON your view first BECAUSE I DON'T WANT YOU TO GRAB THE SILVER TRUMPETS THAT ARE FOR WAR. BECAUSE WHEN YOU'RE AT WAR, YOU'RE FIGHTING FOR THE VICTORY. NO, I NEED MY PEOPLE TO GRAB THE RAM'S HORN. AND WHAT THAT MEANS IS IT'S A CELEBRATION. AND HOW CAN I CELEBRATE WHEN THE WALLS ARE TALL AND THE WALLS ARE WIDE AND THE WALLS ARE THICK? BECAUSE I KNOW WHO MY FATHER IS THAT WE ALREADY HAVE THE VICTORY IN OUR HEADS. NOT I WILL GIVE, NOT I'M GOING TO GIVE, BUT I HAVE already given. >> Here's something important to note about God's people. >> Not only the silver trumpets and not only the ram's horns. need you to use the ram's horns when it's time to celebrate. But until then, I need you to just walk in obedience. I need you to walk in OBEDIENCE FOR SIX DAYS AND ON THAT seventh day, walk around around the wall seven times. WHY SO MANY TIMES? WELL, SEVEN IS THE NUMBER OF COMPLETION. I DON'T KNOW WHEN GOD'S GOING TO HEAL YOU, BUT WHEN YOUR FAITH IS COMPLETE, THERE IS THE VICTORY. IF YOU WALK IN OBEDIENCE, I CANNOT TELL YOU WHEN YOUR SITUATION'S GOING TO TURN AROUND. BUT I CAN TELL YOU WHEN FAITH HAS FINISHED ITS WORK, that's when God is going to touch you. But I feel like there is an important step that often times is skipped over in the walls of Jericho, and that is the fact that they needed to shut their mouths. >> Probably shouldn't say that, Mom. Sorry. I know. I'm getting this right here, man. Glorifying our problems. You imagine if those people, Dad, if those people could open up their mouths and begin to talk and murmur and complain. I guess the the the mana and the old the the mana while they walked, they begin to complain about that. They wish they had the food in Egypt. And I think God was just telling them, "Hey, for for the next seven days, I need you just to be quiet. need you to be quiet talking about how big you're going you're going to think about how weird you look walking around the walls and the trumpets are a plane you're going to begin to talk about all those things. So I've I'VE COME TO TELL YOU QUIT TALKING about your problems and begin TO MAGNIFY GOD. THAT I KNOW THAT I KNOW THAT'S AS DEEP AS A SUMMER PUDDLE BUT WE GLORIFY OUR PROBLEMS. WE GLORIFY HOW BIG IT IS. WHY DON'T WE JUST TRY AND GLORIFYING HOW BIG OUR FATHER IS AND HOW GOOD HE IS AND HOW MERCIFUL HE'S BEEN TO US. HOW ABOUT WE BEGIN TO MAGNIFY THE MIRACLES THAT HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED IN OUR MIDST? WHY DON'T WE MAGNIFY THE GOD THAT HEALED BROTHER KIRBY OF BLINDNESS? WHY DON'T WE MAGNIFY THE GOD THAT HEALED SISTER KIRBY OF CANCER AND SISTER JETER OF CANCER? WHY DON'T WE BEGIN TO MAGNIFY? HOW ABOUT YOU TRY RIGHT NOW? COULD YOU LIFT YOUR VOICE AND FORGET ABOUT ALL YOUR PROBLEMS? BE FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT'S PLAGUING YOU AND THE ACHES AND THE PAINS IN YOUR BODY AND JUST BEGIN TO WORSHIP HIM FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF BEING HIS CHILD. THE VIEWPOINT OF HAVING A FATHER'S TAB THAT IS ENDLESS. THE VIEWPOINT THAT WE ALREADY HAVE THE VICTORY in our hands. I don't know when it's going to happen, BUT I BELIEVE IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW WHEN MY SITUATION'S GOING TO CHANGE, BUT I KNOW IT VICTORY IS ON THE WAY. WHY? BECAUSE I KNOW WHO MY FATHER IS. I KNOW THAT MY FATHER'S BLOOD IS STILL REAL AND IT STILL FLOWS THROUGH THE DEEPEST VALLEY. I KNOW THAT. I KNOW THAT IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. OH MY GOD. I'M GOING TO PREACH THIS TILL WE SEE IT TONIGHT. WE SERVE A FATHER THAT HAS A TAB THAT we can tap into. >> Oh, I feel it tonight. One more time, would you lift your hands or lift your voice? Come on. Some of YOU HAVE HAVE HAVE GLORIFIED HOW IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW HOW IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I JUST KNOW IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW HOW GOD CAN TURN MY TRIAL AROUND, BUT I'VE NOT CALLED YOU TO KNOW HOW. I'VE CALLED YOU TO BE FAITHFUL AND OBEDIENT AND WALK UNTIL YOUR FAITH IS COMPLETE. I DON'T KNOW HOW THE WALLS OF JERICHO are going to fall. I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW THE GROUND IS GOING TO OPEN UP AND SWALLOW MY TRIALS. BUT I JUST KNOW IF I'M FAITHFUL TO THEM AND I'M OBEDIENT TO THEM, I KNOW MY WALLS WILL COME CRASHING DOWN. I KNOW MY TRIALS WILL COME CRASH. I DON'T KNOW HOW IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, BUT I KNOW IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW HOW IT'S GOING TO BE HEALED. I DON'T KNOW HOW GOD'S GOING TO PROVIDE. Come on. I've come to stir IT UP TODAY. I'VE COME TO STIR IT UP IN YOUR FAMILIES. SOME OF YOU HAVE BEEN WALKING AROUND WITH THINGS THAT GOD DID NOT DESIGN YOU TO CARRY AND GOD DID NOT DESIGN YOU TO FIGHT. Could you lift your voice for just one moment? Come on. SOME OF YOU ARE WONDERING HOW THE WALLS ARE GOING TO FALL. I have no clue how. SOME OF YOU ARE WONDERING HOW IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I DON'T KNOW HOW, BUT I KNOW WE HAVE A FATHER THAT'S ABLE. I KNOW WE HAVE A FATHER THAT'S ABLE AND THAT HAS GIVEN HIS CHILDREN THE VICTORY. >> You believe that? Would you say amen? >> Amen. I bind the thought tonight that God cannot do what he promised in his word. >> I bind THE EVIL THOUGHT from hell that tells you that God has forgotten about you. >> Have you ever forgot your children? >> I know I I've been I I didn't pick up my girl from Sunday school today. Okay, Sister Mackenzie Manship had to bring him in. But I'm not talking about forgetting your kids from a daycare class. I'm talking about, have you ever forgot one of your children didn't exist? >> No. >> Absolutely not. And God's got a much better memory than you do, ma'am. AND GOD'S GOT A MUCH BETTER MEMORY THAN YOU DO, SIR. SO GOD HAS NEVER FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOU. GOD KNOWS THE NUMBER OF HAIR UPON YOUR HEAD. HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GOING THROUGH. TRENDS SETTER, I'VE COME TO BIND THE THOUGHT IN YOUR MIND THAT GOD'S GIVEN UP ON YOU IN YOUR OLD AGE. IF YOU HAVE ACHES AND PAINS IN YOUR BODY, SISTER BRIAN, YOU HAVE ACHES AND PAINS IN YOUR YOUR BODY. BROTHER BRIGGS, GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. IF GOD CARED ABOUT YOU THE NIGHT YOU GOT THE HOLY GHOST, IF GOD CARED ABOUT YOU THE NIGHT YOU WERE BAPTIZED, GOD STILL CARES ABOUT YOU. IF YOU HAVE BREATH IN YOUR BODY, GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. COME ON. IF YOU HAVE BREATH IN YOUR BODY, GOD CARES ABOUT YOU TONIGHT. GOD CARES ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL. GOD CARES ABOUT YOU WALKING INTO THE HOUSE OF GOD WITH ACHES AND PAINS. GOD CARES ABOUT YOU, MA'AM. I KNOW YOU ENTER THIS ENTER THAT CHURCH THROUGH A FREE CLASS, BUT GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. I KNOW YOU WERE RAISED IN THIS CHURCH, BUT GOD STILL cares about you. I tell you, I know the boy. >> One last time, would you lift your voice all across this room? I'VE COME TO PREACH TO SOME OBEDIENT PEOPLE TONIGHT. GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. I'VE come to preach to some people THAT YOU'VE BEEN WALKING WHEN IT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE. GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN WALKING WITH THE WALLS BEING HIGH AND THE WALLS BEING LONG, BUT GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. Jesus name. >> But just like all tabs, you may be seated. All tabs must be paid. >> The Old Testament, they racked up quite the heavy tab. But in the New Testament, some tabs begin to be paid paid off. The bill IN THE OLD TESTAMENT GOT HEAVY AND IT GOT EXPENSIVE. Whether that be sin that WAS PUT UPON A scapegoat >> or healing and provision that was given to God's people. THE TAB IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, IT GOT HEAVY AND IT GOT EXPENSIVE. And like every tab, it eventually all of it would have to be paid for. >> That's right. the bill for the mana and the bill for the water. The water bill for the rock that gave them water in the Old Testament. The water bill and the food bill got expensive and that bill and that tab came time to be paid for in Jesus. The father made flesh. God made flesh. BEGIN TO SAY, "I AM THE bread of life." What are you talking about, Jesus? The bread of life. I know you're the word made flesh, but oh, I'VE COME TO PAY THE BILL FOR THE FOOD THAT WAS GIVEN ON THAT BUFFET IN THE WILDERNESS. I'VE COME TO PAY THE BILL OF THE WATER BILL. WHEN WATER COME FLOATING OUT OF THE ROCK, I GOD RODE THEM FLESH HAVE COME TO PAY for that bill. The bill came due for all those Sabbaths that they took off work. And the bill and the debt was great when they took off work to honor the Sabbath. THE BILL FOR THE SABBATH CAME DUE AND IT WAS QUITE EXPENSIVE WHEN JESUS STARTED TALKING SOME NONSENSE TO A BUNCH OF SPIRITUAL FOLKS AND HE SAID I am the Lord of the Sabbath OR HE CAME TO SAY FOR SOME OF YOU GOOD PEOPLE MATTHEW 11:28 COME UNTO ME ALL THAT YE THAT are labored and heavy laden I've COME TO TELL SOMEBODY TONIGHT YOU'VE BEEN PUTTING YOUR EFFORTS AND ENERGY ON THE FATHER'S TAB WHEN I'VE COME TO JUST PREACH WITH THE GIFT OF FAITH IS YOU'VE BEEN SERVING GOD WHEN IT HURT, YOU'VE BEEN TRUSTING GOD WHEN IT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE. AND JESUS HAS COME TO PAY THE TAB. WHEN HE SAYS, "I WILL GIVE YOU REST. I WILL GIVE YOU COMFORT, MA. I'LL GIVE YOU COMFORT, DADDY. WHY? YOU WERE SERVING WHILE YOU WERE TIRED. YOU WERE SERVING WHILE YOU WERE HURTING. YOU WERE SERVING WHILE YOU WERE HAVE QUESTIONS IN YOUR MIND. I've come to give you some rest. I'm going to stay at this point for just a moment. SOME OF YOU IN THIS HOUSE TONIGHT, you've been serving God while your your your YOUR MIND AT HOME has been living in hell. YOU'VE BEEN WONDERING WHY GOD HAS NOT DELIVERED ON HIS PROMISE. YOU'VE BEEN WONDERING WHY GOD HAS NOT HAS NOT ANSWERED YOUR PRAYER THAT YOU'VE WEPT OVER, BUT YOU COME TO CHURCH AND YOU SLAP A SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND YOU SERVE FAITHFULLY IN THE IN THE THE ALTAR AND YOU SERVE FAITHFULLY IN THE GRAND LOBBY. BUT I'VE COME TO TELL YOU TONIGHT THAT THE TAB IS TIME TO BE PAID FOR. I WILL GIVE YOU REST. I WILL GIVE YOU PEACE. I'LL GIVE YOU PEACE. SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER, I'LL GIVE YOU PEACE. SCHOOL WORKER, I'LL GIVE YOU PEACE. God does good business. >> And he's not going to leave a bill unpaid. The bill came due for that bronze serpent in the Old Testament when they made a snake and put that snake on a pole and whoever would look upon that snake would not die and shall live and be healed. And Jesus says, "Come to pay the bill." When he says, "As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the SON OF MAN BE LIFTED UP that so whosoever BELIEVETH IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT I BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE." JOHN 12 AND32 SAYS THE FULFILLMENT OF THAT BILL, THE PAYMENT OF THAT bill is AND I IF I BE LIFTED UP FROM THE EARTH, I WILL DRAW ALL MEN unto >> me. >> He's a good businessman. He's not going to leave a bill unpaid. >> NIL is not something that's new. That's name, image, and likeness. Some of you are wondering about NIL. How we pay eight million dollars for a quarterback that can't throw a ball. That's not new. In the Old Testament, I'm not sure where my mind just went to that. I just have frustrated feelings. There was nil. Lord, help me. There was an NIL in the Old Testament. The name, image, and likeness bill that was due. David, your name, your NIL deal WOULD WOULD GO ON FOREVER SINCE YOU WANTED TO BUILD A HOUSE FOR THE NAME OF GOD. AND AND THEY SAY SOMETHING ABOUT THE NAME OF DAVID IN 2 SAMUEL 7:13. HE SHALL BUILD AN HOUSE FOR MY NAME AND I WILL ESTABLISH THE THRONE OF HIS KINGDOM. THIS IS speaking of David for ever. But just like every NIL deal, it's time to pay the bills because that NIL deal in the Old Testament was getting expensive. And the son of David had to pay that tab. Jesus comes walking up to two blind men. And those two blind MEN BEGIN TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT HIM THAT HE HADN'T heard from everybody else. THEY SAID, "THOU SON OF DAVID, have mercy on me." AND WHEN GOD ROBED IN FLESH, THE FATHER MADE MANIFEST HEARD SOMEBODY SAY HIS OLD TESTAMENT NAME, THE SON OF DAVID, JESUS SAYS, "I'M GOING TO PAY THE BILL." THERE'S JUST SOMETHING ABOUT KNOWING WHO OUR FATHER IS. THERE'S JUST SOMETHING ABOUT KNOWING HAVING THE RIGHT VIEW. EVEN THOUGH THEY COULDN'T SEE, THEY HAD THE RIGHT VIEW OF WHO HE IS. EVEN THOUGH THEY COULDN'T SEE HIM, THEY COULD STILL feel him. I'VE COME TO TELL YOU, EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND THEM, I DON'T CARE IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THEM. IF YOU TRUST HIM AND BELIEVE HIM, GOD WILL WORK THROUGH YOU AND GOD WILL WORK ON YOU. >> They couldn't see, >> but they still had the right view of him. >> That NIL deal came to pass when he says, "All right, I'm going to operate as a son of David." But in THE OLD TESTAMENT, I'M COMING. NO, I'm not. I I I preached for two seconds last Sunday night. So, here it is. I've got some borrowed time on my tab. I'm I'm going borrow from. will pay it in full tonight. Leviticus 14 and3 tells us about an interesting passage when we see that there is a there's a scapegoat for sin. What they would do is they would take two goats and you've heard Pastor Hammond preach about this so beautifully. They would take this this goat and they would pronounce every sin upon it and they would send that goat out. One had to die and they would send the one goat into the wilderness. And if THERE IS A SCAPEGOAT IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, I've come to bring out something, something new or something. I believe the Lord revealed TO ME THERE'S A SCAPEGOAT. I think I found in Leviticus 14 and3. I found a scapeird. IF A IF A GOAT will be WILL DEAL WITH THE OLD TESTAMENT SIN UNTIL THE CROSS OF CALVARY, this scape bird, I believe, is going to deal with our sickness. Leviticus 14:3 says, "And the priest shall go forth to the camp, and the priest shall look AND BEHOLD AT THE PLAGUE OF LEPROSY, A SICKNESS be healed in the leper. Then shall the priest command to take it for him that is to be cleansed." Two birds. We have a If we have a goat, a goat that deals with sin, I want to preach to you for just a moment about a bird that's going to deal with some healing. But it would just be another thing that would be added to the father's tab. Verse number four says, "Then shall the priest command to take him that is to be cleaned." Two birds alive. Same concept as the goats. Two birds alive and clean. Listen to this. Cedarwood and scarlet >> and hiss. And the priest shall command that one of the birds be killed in an earthn vessel over running water. Now, this is not talking about a faucet in the Old Testament. All right? This is talking about where the water came from. It couldn't just be a water sitting in a jug or sitting in a jar. It had to be given from a source that was flowing. It had to be given if we can easily put it's the same word for running water as living water. Something had to be POURED OVER IT. Not water THAT WAS STALE, HAD BEEN sitting for a while, but had to be living running water. is for the bird. Verse number six, he shall take it and cedar wood and the scarlet. What they did was they took a scarlet cord and wrapped that bird around the piece of wood in hissip to dip hip and put it over the bird that was living. And he shall sprinkle upon him that is to be cleansed from the leprosy seven times and shall pronounce him clean and shall let the living bird loose into an open field. Here's what happened. That one bird was killed in an earthn vessel. The blood of that bird they would put in a bowl. They would take another bird. They would tie it. They would put his upon it. And he would begin to take the blood from that bird and begin to sprinkle it on the living bird seven times. >> Seven times. And then they would take that bird that had the sickness upon it and they would let that bloody bird go into the air to be seen again. This is what happened that amazed me and I believe it's speaking to someone tonight about sickness and speaking to someone tonight about healing. Here's what would happen. THEY WOULD TAKE THIS UNUSUAL ritual in the book of Leviticus in the Old TESTAMENT AND THEY WOULD TAKE THIS bird and this this these two birds and a lepous man that was cleansed of leprosy and it all happened outside the camp away from the normal conduct of the system of sacrifices. There a living thing, a bird was sacrificed in the earthn vessel. And I just think it's very interesting that a thing that flies in the air unto the heavens was sacrificed in an earthn vessel. Even as the bird was killed, it was cleansed by running water. Not just running water, but living water. And this death was associated, the Bible says, with blood and with water. And the blood and water was applied to the leper. and it was applied perfectly and completely seven times. The sacrificial blood was also applied to the scarlet yarn and a piece of wood together combined by hissip. You're wondering where in the world are we going? Hold on just a moment. We're going to get there. And then they would let that bird go to fly into the heavens bearing the mark of sacrifice. In a remarkable way, this was a way that of healing being added to the father's tab. THIS UNUSUAL CEREMONY, JUST LIKE THE SCAPEGOAT and now the scapeird, if you will, IS CONNECTED TO THE FATHER'S TAB through the healing that's placed upon Jesus Christ. THIS UNUSUAL RITUAL WAS H HAPPENED OUTSIDE OF EVERYDAY LIFE, OUTSIDE THE CAMP, IF YOU WILL. In Hebrews 13 and 12 tells us, and I'm READING FROM A DIFFERENT TRANSLATION, SO ALSO Jesus suffered and DIED OUTSIDE THE CITY GATES TO MAKE HIS PEOPLE HOLY by means OF HIS OWN BLOOD. I'VE COME TO TELL YOU, THEY TOOK A BIRD FROM THE HEAVENS IN THE SKY. AND THE BIBLE SAYS THAT JESUS WAS A MAN from heaven. Jesus died, brother Sullivan, you know AS WELL AS I DO, IN ASSOCIATION WITH A SCARLET CLOTH, just like the bird in the OLD TESTAMENT. JESUS DIED, I THINK WE ALL KNOW THIS, WITH THE ASSOCIATION WITH WOOD WHEN HE was nailed to the cross. AND JUST LIKE JESUS WAS NAILED TO THE CROSS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, THAT BIRD WAS PUT UPON A PIECE OF WOOD IN THE Old Testament. BUT I'VE COME TO PREACH TO US it gets better. And I'm like a kid that my sugar is high with a bunch of sweets. I'm gonna try to calm myself to get this thing out because once we get there, I'm going to jump off this speaker. I might roll on the floor and look like a fool in front of everybody, but let's just go where we're going to go. Thank you. All right, here we go. Jesus remained cleansed and holy even after his death. That happened with the bird in the Old Testament. Jesus was both the blood and the dead bird and the blood in the living bird. Because ex Acts 2 and 27 SAYS, "BECAUSE THOU WILT NOT LEAVE MY SOUL IN HELL, neither wilt thou SUFFER THINE HOLY ONE TO see corruption." AND WHAT THAT'S TELLING US IS THAT THE BIRD THAT FLEW AWAY HAD THE MARKS OF A BLOODY DEAD BIRD. And when JESUS CHRIST ROSE FROM THE DEATH, HE HAD THE SCARS OF HIS SACRIFICE. HE IS BOTH THE BIRD THAT GAVE US BLOOD FOR OUR HEALING, BUT HE'S ALSO THE BIRD THAT FLEW AWAY WITH OUR HEALING in his hands. Oh, THEY TOOK THAT BIRD and they put it was bloody. It was messy. But then they took some running living water. When Jesus began to say things like, "Hey, I'll give you water. You'll never thirst again. Give you living water if you want to. I give you living water." So, what happened? Oh, how about this? If you don't believe that, how about this? That that that BIRD IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, they would pronounce the healing over and the cleansing of a leper, a leper over. How about this? THEY PUT BLOOD UPON A DEAD from the dead bird to the living bird. But then they took water and begin to run living flowing water over the bird that was living and let it fly away. And if YOU DON'T SEE ANY CONNECTION, WHAT ABOUT THIS? WHEN THEY PIERCED THE SIDE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT BIRD, WHAT CAME FORTH FROM HIS SIDE? IN FIRST JOHN 5 AND6, IT SAYS THIS, HE CAME BY THE WATER AND THE BLOOD. IF YOU DON'T THINK HE CAME BY THE WATER AND THE BLOOD, WHAT ABOUT WHEN THEY PIERCED HIS SIDE? IN THE NEW TESTAMENT BURN IN JOHN 19:34, FORT WITH CAME THERE OUT BLOOD and >> and The bird >> was dipped seven times. Seven times. Blood. Blood. Blood. And you're thinking, "All right, Einstein, where is that at? I don't see seven times in the scripture. I don't see seven times." Well, let's save that for a moment. Because the bird at the end of the ritual, the blood or the bird flew away, never to be seen again. But our New Testament bird, did it fly away? Absolutely. It was bearing the the the scars of death in his hands and the scars of piercing in his side. And our New TESTAMENT BIRD THAT HAS OUR HEALING ascended in to heaven. But what about the seven times? THE BIRD WAS DIPPED SEVEN TIMES. WHERE IS THAT WITH THE NEW TESTAMENT BIRD? The set number of seven. Just like in the walls of Jericho, it means completion or something being finished. Seven times in the New Testament or the Old Testament, it means it was finished or it was completed. AND THE NEW TESTAMENT BIRD MUST HAVE BEEN A PARAKEET BECAUSE HE OPENED HIS MOUTH AND SAID IN JOHN 19:30, HE SAID, "IT'S NUMBER SEVEN. IT IS FINISHED." OH, I THANK YOU. I SERVE A GOD THAT'S A PARAKEET THAT CAN OPEN UP HIS MOUTH AND SAY, "ALL RIGHT, HERE'S THE NUMBER SEVEN." YOU'VE SEEN THE WATER AND THE BLOOD COME FROM MY SIDE, BUT I'VE COME TO TELL SOMEBODY IT IS FINISHED. EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS PAID FOR. YOUR HEALING IS PAID FOR. YOUR FORGIVENESS IS PAID FOR. YOUR PEACE IS PAID FOR. OH, CAN YOU VIEW YOUR SAVIOR AS A BIRD FOR A MOMENT THAT TOOK YOUR HEALING? I KNOW YOU CAN ENVISION HIM AS A HEALER OF SIN, BUT CAN YOU ENVISION HIM AS A HEALER OF YOUR BODY? Would you stand all across this house? It is finished. What mean? What that means is everything that's put on that tab from the sin of Adam and Eve to the healing of non the leper to the the lepers THAT WOULD COME AND SACRIFICE A BIRD, it is finished. >> Everything you need is already >> it's already paid for. >> Would you close your eyes, but would you lift your voice? Let's ask God to move here in just a moment. Would you just ask God to move here for just a moment? I know you have no problem asking God to forgive you of your sins, but can you ask God to heal you of your sickness? CAN YOU ASK GOD FOR JUST A MOMENT? If he if FORGIVENESS OF SINS IS WHAT YOU NEED, I'VE COME TO TELL YOU IT'S ALREADY PAID FOR. BUT THERE ARE SOME HERE TONIGHT THAT YOU NEED A HEALING in your body. AND I'VE COME TO PREACH TO YOU THAT IT'S already paid for. Healing's already paid for, man. The peace in your mind that you need is already paid for. Come on. That anxiety that you've been battling, YOU WISH IT WOULD GO, BUT YOU CAN'T help it. I'VE COME TO TELL YOU, YOUR DEPRESSION IS ALREADY PAID FOR, SIR. COME ON. YOUR DEPRESSION IS ALREADY PAID FOR. COME ON. YOUR SUGAR DIABETES TONIGHT, THE HEALING IS ALREADY PAID FOR. SEE, I HAVE GIVEN INTO THINE HAND, JERICHO. I know you JUST SEE THE BAD DOCTOR'S REPORT, BUT COULD YOU JUST SEE THE VICTORY THROUGH THE EYES OF THE FATHER? COULD YOU SEE THE VICTORY THROUGH THE EYES OF THE FATHER? I've come to preach that God's going to reward faithful people. I've come to encourage somebody tonight. GOD SEES YOU COMING TO THE HOUSE OF GOD WHEN YOU'RE HURTING IN YOUR BODY. GOD SEES YOU GETTING UP EARLY TO COME TO THE HOUSE OF GOD AND PRAY before work. AND I'VE COME TO PREACH TO SOMEBODY THAT GOD'S ABOUT TO HONOR YOUR FAITHFULNESS tonight if you'll put it on the father's tab. GOD'S GOING TO HONOR YOUR OBEDIENCE WHEN WALKING. And it didn't make sense. God's going to put it on his tab. If you keep this spirit of prayer, if you'd make your way down to the altar, if you need something from God tonight, come on. Every single one of us have issue in our lives that we need God to pay for. Every single one of us tonight have issues in our body, issues in our family, issues in our marriage that we just know we NEED JESUS TO TAKE care of tonight. Come on. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM IN YOUR BODY, I NEED YOU TO COME FORWARD this evening. I've come to PREACH TO US. WE'RE SO GOOD ABOUT CARING FOR OTHER PEOPLE. We care for people in Cleveland, Tennessee. We care for people in Rome, Italy. We care FOR PEOPLE, BROTHER KRAUSS. WE CARE FOR YOUR PEOPLE. And I've COME TO JUST TELL YOU, GREAT FOLKS, THAT GOD'S GOING TO REWARD faithful people. GOD'S GOING TO REWARD TONIGHT obedient people. You've been walking and obeying and trusting on the altar tonight. on the altar tonight. Unfortunately, has the wrong date. Last Sunday night, on the altar tonight, there's a tab. There's a tab. There's a receipt if you will. I'm asking you if you need something from God tonight, would you come upon the steps? Would you grab one of these these tabs? It might take just a moment. You need something from God. That could be a healing. Might have a prodal. You might have a mind that's being plagued by thoughts that are not pleasing unto God. Might your home might be tormented. Your marriage might be tormented. If you need anything tonight, I don't want to put God in a box with just healing. Brother Landry, I I I want to preach to us about a God that can do anything that we need because our opening text says, "Our God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory." Come on. Maybe you have a prodal tonight. Maybe you have a sickness in your body. Would you grab one of these tabs? I know it just take just a moment. While people are grabbing these tabs, could we just pray for just one more second? Come on, would you lift your voice and let's ask the God of the impossible to begin to move? I've come to tell us, WE PRAY LOUD for missionaries. WE PRAY LOUD FOR LOST PEOPLE. COME ON. CAN WE BE SELFISH FOR JUST A FEW MOMENTS AND BEGIN TO PRAY ABOUT SOMETHING WE'RE dealing with? Can we be selfish for just a MOMENT AND THINK ABOUT OUR OWN ISSUES and think about how a father, yes, THAT LOVES PEOPLE ALL AROUND THE WORLD, BUT I'VE COME TO REMIND SOMEBODY here tonight THAT GOD LOVES YOU AND GOD CARES ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL. AND GOD CARES ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE FIGHTING AND WHAT YOU'RE FACING AND THE BATTLE YOU GO HOME TO and the family ISSUES THAT YOU HAVE. GOD CARES ABOUT YOU. Brother Randy Cogdale, I know you're probably being faithful and serving somewhere in this facility. He's on security tonight. Brother Randy Cogdale, if you hear me, would you come in sanctuary and come down? He needs a healing in his body tonight. I've got some pins up. Got some pins on the altar. And I want you to begin to think and nobody's going to see this. Not going to ask you to throw it on the altar. We're going to take it. This is between you and God tonight. We all have different issues, but we all Everybody say all. all have some issues. You put on a good face, mama. Come to the house of God. Just slapping a smile on our face in me tonight. I've got some things I'm going to put on the father's tab. Got some things that I I I want God to do that he's promised me and I'm going to put it on his tab. Before you write anything on that paper, I want you to see something for just a moment. I've got something on the screen I want to show you. I don't believe Paul in Philippians 4 and6 was a a brain surgeon. But he began to write. He says, "Be careful for nothing." He says, "Don't be anxious for anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be known unto God." Don't be anxious. When you're anxious about something, it's in your hands. But when you're thankful for something, it's in God's hands. And here's what what Paul begins to write. He says, "AND THE PEACE OF God which passes all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." I don't believe that Paul was a a brain surgeon. But now they're discovering that when you begin to have anxious thoughts, there's a part of your brain that gets power from your emotional. It's a place that handles all your emotions. begins to give the part of your brain that has anxiety. You're wondering how it's going to happen, how it's going to happen. Your your emotional if headquarters, if you will, begins to give your anxious thought, the anxious portion of your brain power. But at the same time, something else begins to happen. When you have thankful thoughts, the same place that powers your anxious thoughts begins to power thankful thoughts. It begins to give power to thanking God for knowing that he can. What I'm TRYING TO TELL YOU IS IT'S IMPOSSIBLE to have anxious thoughts and thankful thoughts at the same time. PAUL'S NO BRAIN SURGEON, BUT HE BEGAN TO WRITE IN THE HOLY GHOST. HE SAYS, "IF you need peace in YOUR HEART AND IN YOUR MIND, don't be anxious for anything. Just be thankful. Thankful. >> So, here's what I want us to do. I'm not telling you that you can never think of your problems again. It's not what I'm saying. But I've come to tell you the moment you are >> thankful your anxiety of your whatever you write on this card is going to go away. Some of you have been battling with this and you don't have any peace. I've come to tell you the peace through your situation is going to be through thankfulness. And the peace in your hearts and your minds is going to be through thankfulness. So right now, if you're going to PUT IT ON THE father's table, I believe the Lord's about to move in this place. Would you begin to write whatever you need the Lord to take care of? Would you begin TO WRITE IT RIGHT NOW? CASTING ALL YOUR CARES about him on him. For he carth for you. He cares for you. HE CARES HOW YOU FEEL. COME ON. THERE'S A GIFT OF FAITH THAT'S about to operate when you begin to put whatever you brought into this house on THE FATHER'S STAFF. COME ON, PUT YOUR SICKNESS UPON THE FATHER'S TAB. Come on, put your healing on the father's staff. COME ON, PUT YOUR PRODICAL SON AND DAUGHTER ON THE FATHER'S TAB. COME ON, PUT YOUR MARRIAGE, some of you didn't pass the pens AROUND TONIGHT. COME ON, PUT YOUR BACKSLINT DADDY ON THE FATHER'S STAFF. COME ON. IF YOU don't have the gift of the Holy Ghost, PUT IT ON THE FATHER'S STAFF because whatever you have, it's already paid for. Whatever you're carrying, it's already paid for. Some of you need a financial miracle. Would you put it on THE FATHER'S T? WHY DO I BELIEVE THAT GOD CAN ANSWER IT TONIGHT? BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN FAITHFUL THROUGH THE thick and the thin. You've been faithful THROUGH THE VALLEYS. YOU'VE BEEN OBEDIENT WHEN IT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE. YOU'VE BEEN TITHING WHEN THE BILLS HAVE GOTTEN GREATER. YOU'VE BEEN GIVING SACRIFICIALLY WHEN THE INTEREST ON THE DEBT IS GROWING and growing. Oh God, I feel it so with Ericson, I feel so much confidence tonight. Would you lift your hands and would you lift your voice AND WOULD YOU HOLD THE FATHER'S TAB IN YOUR HAND AND WILL GIVE HIM? COME ON. WE'RE NOT PRAYING FROM A A POOR A POOR PITIFUL MEAN PRAYER. NO, WE'RE PRAYING FROM THE SIDE of victory. We're praying that the victory is ALREADY IN OUR HANDS. Whatever you HAVE IN YOUR HAND, IT'S paid for. Come on. WOULD YOU WOULD YOUR VOLUME OF YOUR VOICE be the indication of your faith tonight? Come on. YOUR MARRIAGE ISSUES ARE PAID FOR. YOUR PRODICAL SONS AND DAUGHTERS are paid for. >> >> There's not a mountain too tall. There's not a problem too small >> that Jesus can reach. I've >> come to blow the ram's horn. >> Time he'll get. >> He's a healer. >> Our God. He's a deliverer. He's a restorer. >> Wait on the Lord. >> You've been walking. You've been obedient. Now the walls are going to start falling. >> Lord, the Lord and he renew your strength. There's not a light too dark. The journey too long to get the faith stirred in this house tonight. Come on. I know you put your PROBLEMS ON A PIECE OF PAPER, but can you turn your anxious thoughts into thankful thoughts? Whatever you need him to do, turn your thoughts into thankful thoughts. I thank you for being a healer. I thank you for being a forgiver. I thank you for my prodigal son coming across the way and coming back to the house of God. >> Cuz wait on the Lord and he renew your face. on the Lord. Come on, it's stirring tonight. Come on, GOOD PEOPLE. YOU TRAVAIL OVER MISSIONARIES. I'm asking YOU TO TRAVAIL ABOUT YOURSELF TONIGHT. GOD CARES ABOUT you upon THE AUTHORITY OF THE WORD OF GOD. WE ARE NOT WISHING.
