Transcript of a published conference session by Dillon Morgan, transcribed from video. An attributed primary source — not Acts 2:38 Life doctrine text.
Summary
Summary prepared by Acts 2:38 Life from the transcript below — the preacher’s words follow in full.
Two Texts, Two Views of the Lattice
- He opens with two readings: a king who fell down through a lattice in his upper chamber in Samaria, was sick, and sent messengers to inquire whether he would recover of his disease; and the beloved standing behind the wall, looking forth at the windows, showing himself through the lattice.
- The contrast is the sermon: one man leaned on the lattice and fell, while the beloved is seen through it as he comes leaping upon the mountains. His subject is "Don't lean on the lattice."
- He notes the earlier conference message about tightening the belt and says he is wearing a belt today, hoping to catch hold of that message.
- He is preaching to Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha — the most gifted, talented, and informed generations that have ever lived — and warns that everything that can be utilized for the kingdom of God can just as quickly become a stumbling block to what God wants to do.
- The message is meant to be preventative, so they do not have to fall; he then leads a prayer that the gifts of the Spirit would be loosed, that God would confirm the word with signs following, and that he would be given clarity of mind to speak it.
Scriptures: 2 Kings 1:2; Song of Solomon 2:8-9
What Lattice Is — and What It Was Never Meant to Bear
- Lattice work was an ancient version of a screen over a window, made from thin pieces of wood — especially decorative and elaborate in the home of a king — meant to let the wind through on a hot day and used for privacy, security, and decoration.
- The opening of the second book of Kings begins with Moab rebelling against Israel, the death of Ahab, and his son Ahaziah taking the reign — and then the strange detail that Ahaziah fell down through a lattice; the Lord put it in Scripture to teach something: don't lean on things that are not meant to bear your weight.
- In the Song, the woman who represents the church and the beloved who represents Christ show the proper way to handle lattice: you are to look through it to see Jesus coming.
- Anything made by the hand of man — any gifting, any talent, any ability, anything created by man — is lattice work; while it is not bad and it is not sin, it is never meant to bear our weight.
- That is why Proverbs commands us to trust in the Lord with all our heart and lean not to our own understanding, acknowledging him in all our ways so he shall direct our paths.
Scriptures: Proverbs (book-only, as spoken)
The Pillars: Lattice That Points, Fruit That Holds
- In Solomon's temple construction, the lattice work on the tops of the pillars was adorned with ornamental wreaths and chains, with two rows of pomegranate-shaped ornaments around the lattice work covering the top of each pillar.
- The pillars had names: the right pillar was called Jachin, which means Jehovah will establish, and the left pillar Boaz, meaning in him is strength.
- Neither of these pillars had a load-bearing job; they were meant to point to a holy place — to the one who can handle the weight, carry the burden, and establish.
- Pomegranates — fruit — were woven into the lattice work: if our systems, gifts, programs, talents, and abilities are not woven through with love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance, that lattice will not hold our weight; you can preach but be rude, sing but be prideful, teach a Bible study but be unfaithful, and you will fall when you lean on them.
- Lattice in the Hebrew simply means a network, a network of material woven together — and mankind loves to build a network, trusting followers and friends in the right places, putting safety in the hand of flesh instead of in the hand of a God who can sustain us.
Scriptures: 1 Kings 7:17-21
Gifts, a Day of Reckoning, and the Measure of Several Ability
- A man's gift may make room for him and bring him before great men, but the book of James says every good gift and every perfect gift is from above — and, applying it to his subject, every good lattice and every perfect lattice is from above: no one would have the gift, the talent, the voice to sing, preach, play, or witness if it were not for the Lord.
- Romans says the gifts and the callings of God are without repentance.
- But Matthew tells of a man who gave gifts, talents, and abilities to some men and returned for a day of reckoning, asking what they had been doing with what he gave them — whether they had started leaning on the gifts or were looking for his coming.
- He gave to one five, to another two, to another one — to every man according to his several ability; "several" means unique, that God looked at each one and knew how much he could handle without destruction, caring more about a person's salvation than about giving him giftings he could not handle.
- That ability is not man's ability; it is dunamis, the power received when the Holy Ghost comes upon you — lean on the power God put in you rather than on the gift, and he will anoint the gift, multiply it, and give more than you started with.
- The issue was the man who was given one: he took the gift, buried it in the earth, got carnal with it, started leaning on the gift, and came to see the giver as a hard man — but God is the lover of the soul, and having the God of heaven and earth on the inside is enough, gift or no gift.
Scriptures: James (book-only, as spoken); Romans 11:29; Matthew 25:19; Matthew 25:15
Samson's Mother: Strength Is Produced Before It Is Seen
- Before there could be a Samson, there had to be a mother who increased her own conviction: the angel of the Lord appeared to the barren woman and told her to drink no wine or strong drink and eat nothing unclean, for she would conceive and bear a son, no razor would come on his head, the child would be a Nazarite unto God from the womb, and he would begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.
- You want to produce strength? Elevate your conviction, and you will produce a Samson.
- We never know the mother's name; she was satisfied with being lattice that is looked through instead of leaned on — you may sacrifice to be here, taking off work and giving things up, and your name may never be on a screen at a national conference, but you just might produce a deliverer that this nation needs.
- He preaches against the generation that wants its name in lights, plastered all over social media, on the next reel — look at me preach, look at me sing — when it is not about the preacher or singer at all; it is about the one who should be seen through them, and about somebody being delivered.
- As unknown and yet well known: we do not know her name, but God does, and heaven does — what matters is that your own name is written in the Lamb's book of life and that you hear "come on in" on the day of deliverance.
Scriptures: Judges 13; 2 Corinthians 6:9
The Line Somebody Else Drew
- Samson laid in Delilah's lap assuming his strength would always be there; his hair was his lattice work, but it was never about the hair — it was about the covenant the hair represented.
- When the hair of his head began to grow again, what mattered was that Samson called unto the Lord — "remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me" — he stopped thinking it was about the hair and realized it was about the God who gave him the ability to begin with.
- Speaking as a peer and a brother, not from an elder's elevation: Samson's strength came from a line somebody else drew in his life, and this generation keeps moving lines the elders drew because they are no longer convenient, then wonders where its strength has gone.
- Those lines were birthed at a fiery prayer meeting; culture cannot dictate kingdom — kingdom dictates culture.
Put the Line Back: His Own Fight With Depression
- In his travels preaching this truth across the United States and North America, he has noticed an increase of mental bondage in this generation at rates never seen before — published books say it too; he names The Anxious Generation and The Soul of Shame among what can be read about this generation.
- Samson was not in bondage until he moved a line somebody else produced in prayer; perhaps the increased bondage is due to moving lines God set so this generation could have a strength nobody else has.
- He tells his own fight plainly: he has fought depression, sat in dark rooms and wept, started a year in the greatest depression of his life, and fought thoughts of suicide — while also standing behind pulpits preaching youth conventions where more than seventy received the baptism of the Holy Ghost in one service, then going back to his room and weeping tears of heaviness.
- His sister-in-law brought him a vision from the Lord: he had to feel what his generation is feeling so that he could preach to them what they are going through.
- His charge: put the line back where it was and quit messing with it — elevate your conviction, get back to praying, get back to reading the word of the Lord, quit leaning on the lattice, and look through it to see Jesus.
Look Through the Law, Don't Lean on It
- In the days of Jesus there were five groups of religious leaders bickering over how Jesus was going to come, fighting over the law and the interpretations of the law, not knowing that the book of Hebrews said it is a shadow of things to come.
- They were not supposed to lean on the law; they were supposed to look through it to see the one who was coming.
- If this generation is not careful, all of its fighting, discord, and bickering over small stuff will cause it to miss the hour of visitation God is trying to send to this generation.
- His charge: get unified, let bygones be bygones, fall in love with the word of God, with truth, with holiness; get off of social media, quit worrying about what everybody else is doing, and ask where the revival is in my city, in my church — this is the church's hour.
Scriptures: Hebrews (book-only, as spoken)
The Downward Gaze: Barrenness From Looking Down
- He offers it as speculation, not revelation: perhaps Ahaziah fell because he was leaning on the lattice to look down, and perhaps Michal was looking down at David dancing before the ark of the covenant with a prideful, arrogant, judging gaze while the glory passed behind her — and what that downward gaze produced was barrenness.
- The cry "where's my fruit, my anointing, my revival, my harvest" is answered by humility: if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves.
- Don't lean on me, he tells them — I will fail you, I will let you down — but if you see Jesus coming, revival, healing, miracle, deliverance of the mind, and freedom from the generational bondage and curse you have lived under come with him.
- This is what Jeremiah was trying to get through to Israel: cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his arm, whose heart departs from the Lord, for he shall be like the heath in the desert and shall not see when good comes — and something good is coming, but making flesh our arm will cause us to miss the good thing that is coming.
Scriptures: Jeremiah 17:5
Everything You Need Is Jesus
- He asks to whom the arm of the Lord is revealed and answers point by point: the arm of the Lord is Jesus Christ; the good thing, the anointing, the power, and your deliverance are all Jesus Christ — it is not in the preacher.
- Are you serving the creature more than the Creator? Are you changing the truth of God into a lie? Saying "I'll handle it, I'll figure it out, I'll work it out" is making flesh our arm; no — it is in him.
- Anointed preachers do not want you to see their preaching abilities, oratory, or how correctly they handle the text; they want you to see your deliverer, Jesus Christ — everything you need is in the room because the Lord of glory has filled this tabernacle.
- Not "I am of Apollos" and "I am of Paul" — Christ is not divided; it is he who died for our sins, who could at any moment have called legions of angels down but submitted himself to a death nobody wanted to die.
- He died so that the glory would come out from behind the lattice — and when the glory comes out, you will be healed and delivered — and the house answers with worship: the glory, the glory, the glory.
Preaching From the Head: The Lattice Weakening
- He is still a young man; as a younger man driving to preach revival, he listened to a preacher's message from twenty-seven years ago — he was one year old when it was preached — about the king who stood head and shoulders above everybody else; that man had it in his head, not in his heart.
- A very well-known man in the organization, who preached every major meeting, came to preach a meeting and stayed the weekend to preach for his father; little did they know he had made poor choices and a moral failure was happening while he was standing there preaching the revival.
- Two weeks later his father sat across from that man and asked how he did it; the man answered, "I started doing it from my head" — and that marked this young preacher: doing this out of intellect is leaning on the lattice.
- Ahaziah had leaned on that lattice a few times before he fell; every time he leaned on it, it was getting weaker. This is the preventative message: social media is powerful — don't lean on it; your ability to preach is powerful — don't lean on it; your ability to sing is powerful — please don't start leaning on it.
- He cannot carry anyone to Calvary or to heaven; he is the lesser, and all he can do is point up — there is one greater on the horizon, dancing even now — that is your salvation and your strength.
Become the Lattice: The Closing Intercession
- An intercession is trying to be released in the minds of apostolic young people; he asks them to stand to their feet, close their eyes, lean their heads back, lift their hands, and loose from the depth of the soul a sound of intercession — a birthing of genuine desire, a purifying of motive, of agenda, of man.
- He calls Colton, a pastor, to come up: what they are forming is a godly network — a lattice done right is not about us; it leaves enough room for people to see the one they are trying to usher into the room, and he prays his own flesh stays so cracked on the altar that Jesus is seen.
- Let the wind blow through the lattice: come on, young person — Millennial, Gen Z, Gen Alpha — become the lattice that is looked through and not leaned on.
- Don't look around wondering what everybody else is doing, don't wait to see what happens next; start looking at the beloved — he is on the mountain — focus in on Jesus, focus in on Calvary, and he rebukes every spirit of distraction.
- He asks those kneeling to stand and link with the person next to them — not competition, not the one who might get asked before you, but the body of Christ, many members yet one body; lattice used correctly allowed the wind to blow from one place to the next, from one realm to the next.
- The capture ends mid-appeal, with him sensing that a wind is about to blow through the house; the per-sermon audio cut stops there, still inside the intercession, with no closing in the capture.

Turn with me to the book of second Kings chapter one verse number two And then don't freak out when I announce this next book. We're gonna read from we're also gonna read from the book of song with Solomon chapter two verses eight and nine and While you're turning there for the Martin preached about tightening your belt and When he was preaching that I had pants that had side adjusters on And So I'm wearing a belt today to hope that I can get a hold of that message Amen and preach like he preached my goodness to that man do some preaching or what? second Kings chapter one verse number two Hasiah fell down Everybody say this through a lattice In his upper chamber that was in Samaria and was sick He sent messengers and said unto them go In choir the Elzebub God of that crown whether I shall recover of this disease
Turn with me to the book of song of Solomon chapter two verse number eight Bible says Voice of my beloved behold He cometh leaping upon the mountains Skipping upon the hills Beloved is like a row or a young heart behold. He standeth behind our wall He looketh forth at the windows Showing himself somebody say he showed himself Through the lattice
You have two views how to handle lattice here One a man leaned on it and fell And the other a man looked through it Or a woman looked through it and saw her beloved coming So today I want to preach to you on this thought don't lean on the lattice
I'm preaching today to Millennials Gen Z and Gen Alpha you were known as the most gifted talented and informed generations that have ever lived and I want to tell you today that while all of those things will be utilized for the kingdom of God As quickly as they can become utilized for the kingdom of God. They can also become a stumbling block To God doing to what he wants to do And I have come today the word from the Lord for you To preach to you Prayerfully something preventative so that you don't have to fall
Would you lift your hands all over this house and would you ask that God would speak to us here today? Lord, I love you with everything that is within me. You know God how much I love you Pray in this house right now that the gifts of the spirit would be loosed Pray in this house right now that you would confirm this word with signs following Speak to us oh God Minister to the hearts and minds of every apostolic young person that is here on a Saturday morning To lift your name on high. I need you Jesus Anoint me with clarity of mind to speak your word in Jesus name Let everybody say in Jesus name You may be seated.
Maybe you are asking Like I asked when I read second Kings What is lattice work? It was an ancient version of a screen over your window however Especially in the home of a king there was much more decorative and elaborate Most were made from thin pieces of wood and it was meant to let the wind through on a hot day It was also meant for privacy and security As well as they were used for a screen. They were also used for decorative purposes in architecture
Our text today you see two uses of lattice work firstly you see a wicked king by the name of Isaiah our Opening scripture to this book of second Kings begins with Moab rebelling against Israel the death of a hab and His son as a hyah taking rain and it begins with a strange scripture and As a hyah fell down through a lattice in his upper chamber Why does this make its way into scripture of? all the things that could be said it is Important that lattice work has made its way in I Think when you look at this the Lord is trying to teach all of us something Don't lean on things That are not meant to bear your weight We see the contrast to this and the song of Solomon The voice of my beloved he says she says Come at leaping upon the mountains skipping upon the hills She says my beloved is like a row young heart behold He standeth beyond our wall he looketh forth at the windows showing himself through the lattice here You see a contrast of how we are supposed to handle lattice Where the king leaned on it this woman who represents the church and The beloved which represents Christ is Teaching you the proper way to handle lattice work You are to look through it to see Jesus coming I Tell you today that anything made by the hand of man Anything made by the hand of man any gifting any talent any ability Anything created by man It is lattice work While it is not bad Nor is it sin It is never meant to bear our weight Maybe this is why we are commanded in Proverbs trust in the Lord with all your heart and Lean not To thine own understanding in all thy ways Acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths
in Solomon's temple construction We find in first Kings chapter 7 and verse number 17 and I'll read from the new English translation The lattice work on the tops of the pillars was adorned with ornamental wreaths and chains The top of the pillar had seven groupings of ornaments, which he made the pillars There were two rows of pomegranate shaped ornaments around the lattice work covering the top of each pillar These pillars had names as well We find them in verse number 21 and he set up the pillars on the ports of the temple And he set up the right pillar and called it Jacob was simply means Jehovah will establish and he set up the left pillar and called the name thereof Boaz meaning in him is strength It's interesting that neither of these pillars had load bearing jobs Neither one were meant to bear weight They were meant to point to a holy place They were meant to point to the one that could handle the weight The one that had the strength to carry the burden the one that had the strength to establish Interesting they were not meant to carry weight
Also Woven into the lattice work of these pillars was pomegranates fruit woven into the lattice I believe that in every system gift program talent Ability that we have if it is not woven through with love joy peace Long suffering gentleness goodness faith meekness temperance That lattice will not hold your weight So you can preach but you're rude so you can sing but you're prideful So you can teach a Bible study, but you're unfaithful That lattice will not last If our gifts our talents our abilities are not woven with the fruit of the spirit They are not effective in bringing him glory and you will fall when you lean on them
When you look at lattice work in the Hebrew It's synonym simply means network Because lattice is a network of material woven together. I can't help but find significance in this Because mankind likes to build their network If I get enough followers, I'll be alright If I get enough friends in the right places I can make it and we start finding our safety in the hand of the natural lattice of man and We start trusting in our network and in our ability and we put our safety in the hands of flesh Instead of in the hand of a God that can sustain us
Preacher, don't you know that a man's gift make a room for him and bring with him before great men? Yes, I know that but I also know that the book of James says every good gift and if I could put it this way Every good lattice and every perfect lattice is from above You wouldn't have that gift if it wasn't for the Lord You wouldn't have that talent if it wasn't for the law you couldn't sing preach play Witness if it wasn't for the law I know the scripture says in Romans 11 29 for the gifts and the callings are without repentance But I also know in Matthew 25 and 19 that the Bible says that a man gave gifts talents lattice to some men and When he gave it to him There was a day of reckoning Where he showed up? He said what have you been doing? With the gifts I gave you What have you been doing with the talents? I gave you what have you been doing with the abilities that I gave you? Have you started leaning on those or are you looking for my coming?
And I know I know I know We see people that have five and people that have two and us that have one get a little jealous But the Bible says in Matthew 25 and 15 that he gave under them five and another two and another one Watch what it says to every man according to his several everybody say several Ability everybody say ability That word several means unique It means he looked at you and he said I know how much you can handle without destruction God cares more about your salvation Then he does giving you talents and giftings that you can't handle that will lead to your damn nation He would rather you go to heaven with one then give you five and watch you not make it But while he measures and looks and sees how much you can handle he also says he'll give you some ability That word ability is not man's ability. In fact, it is dunamis It's dunamis after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you you shall receive dunamis He said I may give you one But I'll put a supernatural thing in you that if you won't lean on the gift and you'll lean on the power That I put in you. I'll anoint the gift I'll multiply the gift and I'll give you more than you ever started with
God doesn't want to leave you with just one He's gonna start you with one see how you handle it. See how you live You've got everything you need in the Holy Ghost you've got all the power You've got all the anointing quit leaning on the gift and start leaning on the giver the issue is One that was given one He gets this tainted view of God Watch what the Bible says he does with it. He takes the gift and he puts it in the earth What was man made from he took the gift and he got carnal with it and When he got carnal with the gift He started leaning on the gift and started seeing the giver with a bad point of view I know that thou art a hard man You don't know your God if you think he's a hard man How tie you shut He is the lover of my soul He is my everything and if I never get another gift If I never get another talent if I never get another ability I've got the God of heaven and earth On the inside of me and that's all I need
I'm reminded of Samson. Thank you brother Robinette for preaching it like you did yesterday Something gripped me this morning about the story of Samson He could have never produced but he produced Without a mother that didn't increase her personal conviction because before Samson Could become Samson Bible says this in judges 13 and the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman and Set under her behold now thou art barren and bearest not but thou shalt conceive and bear a son now therefore beware I pray thee and drink not wine nor strong drink neither eat any unclean thing For low thou shalt conceive and bear a son and no razor shall come upon his head for the child shall be a Nazarite under God from his womb and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines before There could be a Samson in the womb that had a Nazarite vow There had to be a mother that elevated her conviction that could produce a Samson that had a Nazarite vow You want to produce strength? I tell you in the Holy Ghost today Take heed to what we heard and elevate your conviction and if you'll elevate your conviction You'll produce a Samson
It's also a fact that we never know her name brother Ethan unnamed She was satisfied With being lattice That was looked through instead of leaned on I don't need a name. I just need to produce a deliverer young person You sacrifice to be here Some of you took off work Some of you in the natural gave up things to be here And your name They never be on the screen at NA YC general conference because of the times or wins conference But you just might produce A deliverer That our nation needs You don't have to know my name Just know my Jesus You don't have to know who I am But please know the mighty God is he You don't have to know I tell you la boja I'm preaching against the generation that what's their name on lights and what's their name? Plastered all over social media and wants to be on the next reel look at me preach look at me sing It's not about me. It's about the one You should see through me Brother green if you're preaching or if I'm preaching let deliverance happen today Brother Urshin if you're preaching or brother Elms if you're preaching just let somebody be delivered today Brother Ethan if you're singing or if somebody else is singing just let deliver it Coming to this house Let somebody be set free and who cares who gets the glory Lift your hands the Holy Ghost just moving right now. We'll never know Samson's mother's name But second Corinthians 6 9 says as unknown and yet well known We don't know her name But God does You don't know her name, but angels do you don't know her name But I promise you heaven knows who that woman is and if you never know who I am I just pray God knows when the day of deliverance comes My name is written in the Lamb's book of life and I hear come on in Dylan The water's just right come on in Dylan. It's beautiful in here. Just get me where I need to go And that's heaven.
You know the story as well as I do He laid in Delilah's lap and said my strength will always be there Dare I say today that Samson's hair was his lattice work and It was never about the hair It was about the hair the covenant represented. I know we read how be it the hair of his head begin to grow But I tell you what else we read and Samson called unto the Lord and Said oh Lord God remember me I pray thee and Strengthen me it was not that the hair began to grow It was that he stopped thinking it was about the hair and started realizing it was about the God That gave him the ability to begin with
and if I can pause here and say to my generation I Do not say this as an elder. I say this as your peer. I Do not say this from a podium Loft-eater Elevation I say this as a brother looking to a brother Samson strength came from a line somebody else drew in his life and if we keep moving lines elders drew because it's not Convenient anymore and then looking around wondering where our strength has gone Tell you why we're losing strength Because we're moving lines that were birthed at a fiery prayer meeting Because it's not convenient for our culture anymore Culture cannot dictate kingdom kingdom dictates culture.
I have noticed in my travels The Lord has blessed this young man to travel over the United States and North America and preach this precious truth I have noticed that there is an increase of mental bondage in this generation of Which the rates have never been seen before This is not my idea science says it Published books say it you can read the anxious generation You can read the soul of shame you can read all about this generation You can read and listen to podcast and it'll tell you that the mental bondage of this generation has increased to a level that No other generation has seen before I Remind you Samson was not in bondage until he moved a line somebody else produced in prayer Would it be that our increased bondage is due to us moving lines that somebody said this is what God wants For you to have a strength that nobody else has
I have fought depression I have said in dark rooms and wept I Have woken Starting a year in the greatest depression of my life. I have fought thoughts of suicide I Have stood behind pulpits and preached youth conventions and seen 70 plus received the baptism of the Holy Ghost in one service and gone Back to my room and wept tears of heaviness asking God Why and the Lord sent my dear sister-in-law with a vision and she said you had to feel what your generation is feeling So that you could preach to them what they're going through I stand before you today and I tell you put the line back where it was and quit messing with it Elevate your conviction Elevate your conviction Elevate your conviction get back to praying get back to reading the word of the Lord get back to Quit leaning on the lattice Look through it and see Jesus
the issue of the days of Jesus You had five groups of religious leaders that were bickering over how Jesus was gonna come Sitting around fighting over the law and the interpretations of the law Not knowing that the book of Hebrews said it is a shadow of things to come apparently Not knowing that they were not supposed to lean on the law They were supposed to look through it to see the one that was coming and if we're not careful all of our fighting All of our discord all of our bickering over dumb stuff You know what's gonna happen? We're gonna miss the hour of visitation that God's trying to send to this generation I tell you in the fear of the Lord on a Saturday morning get unified Let bygones be bygones Fall in love with the word of God fall in love with truth fall in love with holiness Get off of social media quit worrying about what everybody else is doing Put your finger in the sky and say where's the revival in my city? Where's the revival in my church? Something's trying to break right now lift your voice Lift your voice and let the Lord do what he wants to do. This is your hour. I Said this is the church's hour. I Said this is the church's hour Quit leaning on lattice and start looking through it
You will miss what God is trying to do right now if we continue to lean on us That I can figure out as a hyah fell through the lattice pastor Is that he was leaning on it? To look down his downward prideful arrogant gaze Just speculation not revelation, but what if that's how my kill was looking down at David? I'm dancing Before the Ark of the Covenant Visitation was behind him come on somebody The glory was behind him But there was too many people looking down judging Prideful gaze through the lattice while they're leaning on it. You know what it produced? barrenness Where's my fruit? Where's my anointing? Where's my revival? Where's my harvest if my people which are called by my name Shall humble themselves we need to quit leaning on lattice Looking down get ourselves in a ball I'm just Don't lean on me today I'll fail you I'll let you down. I promise I will But if you see Jesus How tired a shot that if you see him coming right now So too comes your revival So too comes your healing So too comes your miracle so too comes the deliverance of your mind so too comes the freedom of your High you don't have to live in the generational bond that you have been in You don't have to live under the curse. You've been under just get a little glimpse of the one dancing On the mountain right now, and he's coming your way
I hurry this is what the prophet Jeremiah was trying to get through Israel Jeremiah 17 5 Let's say at the Lord cursed be the man Did you hear that? cursed be the man that trusted in man and Make it flesh brother Colton his arm And whose heart departed from the Lord For he shall be like a heath in the desert Shall not see there's something good coming There's something good coming There's something good coming There's something good, but you know what we're gonna miss that good thing that's coming Because we've made flesh our arm and we've missed the fact that Isaiah said to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed Can I tell you who the arm of the Lord is Jesus Christ? Can I tell you where the good thing is Jesus Christ? Can I tell you where the anointing is Jesus Christ? Can I tell you where the power is Jesus Christ? Can I tell you where your deliverance is Jesus Christ? Can I tell it's not in me? I'll put it this way. Are you serving creature more than creator? Are you changing the truth of God into a lie? Let's just make flesh our arm. I'll handle it. I'll do it. I'll figure it out I'll work it out. I'll do it. No, no, no It is in him.
I know brother Robin. That's not here. I love it He's the man of faith But can I tell you if he was here? He would tell you you need Jesus Can I tell you why these manner is anointed as they are? Because when they stand behind this pulpit They don't want you to see their preaching abilities and desire to preach like them They don't want you to see their oratory abilities how they exegete and I sajeet the text and how Hormonutically and homiletically correct.
