Is This The Way You Want It To End?

hospitality and kindness I will say that the privilege of invitation is only superseded by the challenge of responsibility there is a great responsibility in standing in this pulpit tonight and preaching the word of the Lord I thank all of you for your kindness and your encouragement there's nothing like the wonderful body of Christ I thank God tonight for the church I would ask you to open your Bibles with me give honor to your district superintendent appreciate brother Mooney and the wonderful spirit that he brings to every occasion in which he is involved and the delightfulness of his character and it's a joy just to be able to be around these wonderful men of God I should not have to say it but let me just say it anyway I think you're fully aware if you're not let me reaffirm the United Pentecostal church has the greatest preachers in the world and we thank God for our ministry that leads us and directs us and the wonderful things of God opening your Bibles with me tonight to first Corinthians chapter number 10 and as you are locating 1st Corinthians chapter 10 I want to save it I'm going to do something tonight that I have never done in my life I have often been very comfortable preaching to young preachers and that's been a joy of my life when I felt a spirit pricked my conscience and my mind and bring an alertness to me that I had not even considered until just prior to service tonight a dimension of revival for the Mid America revival conference that perhaps we have not given adequate attention to and so tonight I feel of the Lord with your kind consents tolerance to dedicate the message to every minister and his wife that are over 40 years of age we go to

conferences and we preach to the young people and we preach to the young preachers when I felt the Lord enlightened me to this afternoon that the revival for Mid America can be reignited in the season The ministers that pass through your churches I assume a great challenge tonight and I need your help and I ask you to help me preach the word of the Lord 1st Corinthians chapter 10 verse 11 now all these things happened unto them for in samples that are written for our admonition upon whom the ends of the world are tough that is an awesome verse of scripture the entirety of God's dealing was just to be an in-sample and to be an admonition for the end everybody say the end then I'd like to direct you to Ephesians chapter 4 and verse number 26 Ephesians chapter 4 and verse number 26 when you read it aloud with me please Ephesians chapter 4 26 everybody ready let's read be ye angry and sin not let not the Sun go down upon your wrath let not the Sun go down upon your wrath here

we are the conclusion of mark 2000 final message final service I want to preach to all of us tonight on this thought is this the way you want it to end is this the way you want it to end and again I say I dedicate the heart of the message to all of our ministers and their wives tonight that are 40 and above and I asked you as I view a lot an unusually lot of gray hair where there is hair and the marks of age in this conference more than normal this is not a young meeting extracting the Bible College I just don't believe God's through with you and my goal in my ambition tonight is to relight and reignite and react cite the original flame of your missin mission and message in these closing hours of time I preached it about revival rapture retirement whichever one comes first is this the

way you want it to end turn around two or three folks and ask if this would be it's just the way you want it to end and everybody shout in Jesus name god bless yous you may be seated I am preaching tonight about relationships I am preaching tonight about your marriage I'm preaching about your ministry your individual call of God your personal work for God your individual walk with God your pastor it your revival your vision your aspiration your dream your goals and even your life is this the way you want it to end reading through the Bible with the bread program of our church here some time back I noticed an unusual definitive characteristic of Joshua the Bible said he died and they buried him in the border of his inheritance buried in the border of his inheritance I don't believe that was the entry level border when they buried Joshua he had accomplished and he had reached every area of God's heritage for him and he was buried on the other side walking against what belong to somebody else I want to ask you tonight is this the way you own it 10 I came to month 2000 with this feeling it came in this way when we heard the prophetic word of the Lord this afternoon we got to know the rapture is imminent when we talked about

the ministry and some have alluded to it in the meeting the fact that uh beige marks are showing and it's time some of us were awakened to realize we are not getting younger what God said so many of my friends have done so hold that ball-headed and recoat they don't recognize me anymore when I came to mark last year brother Mooney said surely that's not brother Huntley sitting back there that's got to be an older brother hunter I don't need to abruptly shock you tonight but I am now 50 years old and I am now a grandfather and I am NOT ready for my ministry my dreams my goals my ambitions to end tonight I have not yet preached my best message I have not seen my greatest revival I have not been in my best service it can not in this way

so that's why I came to mark tonight not just to hear another service when I come needing a fresh inspiration I need a fresh anointing I need a brand new revelation I need a direction hey if that's not what these meetings are all it up let's turn the lights out shut the PA down now let's go home but I believe there's something yet in this atmosphere that can revolutionize your ministry that can touch you a brand you and send you home old fire god well I won't Jesus to come but on the other hand I believe there's more revival for all my church is not as large as I want it to be our building it's not as full as I want it to be we have not seen a soul saved I'm not ready to quit yet some of you have turned in your resignation I'm trying to draw you our retirement and get you back into the field of action there's nothing more miserable than a man that retires to her hello it must not end this way in my chapter 14 and verse 1 the Bible exposes us to a shocking Starling series of events of contradiction and contrast all of them I feel are the products of the pressure of the end and that's where we are tonight we are feeling the pressure of the end can I get a witness tonight and Calvary was looming near and under that pressure it brought out the best in Mary she broke that alabaster box and poured it out on Jesus but that seemed to trigger something in Judas because what brought out her best brought out his worse and when the end comes it will expose our best or it will expose our lost because what Mary called worship Judas called waste and that's why we are shocked on one hot one side by the horrible reports of ghastly things that are happening what on the other hand

marvelous miracles of revival are taking place it's the pressure of the end Mary felt like it's time for something to make it's time for something to be poured on I want to tell you tonight before it will be poured out something's got to be portal it cannot be any longer business as usual Judah said it's waste and Mara said it's worship it's time for us Pentecostals to determine what you do for Jesus is it waste or is it worship I want to tell you anything dedicated to him is never wasted any paint poured on him he's worthy of it all now I want you to know with me it was not what she did that bothered Judas it's how much two ounces would have been alright for Jewess 4 ounces might have been alright for Judas 6 ounces made good sense to him but to point all out was ridiculous to him it's not what we do it's how much we do oh there's a lot of modern a up on selling Pentecostals they want to do hand clap for Jesus a little too stepped every once in a while but the pressure of the N dictates somebody needs to point out somebody needs to pour it out we don't need a charismatic to step we need a shaking of the Holy Ghost we need the power of the Holy Ghost it's time to go back to sweating in church it's time to go back to destiny insurance it's time to go back to scream in your church it's time to go back to worship and God the old-fashioned Apostolic worship this thing started in a bar and it must not end in the smoke you made me sit on my medal just remain outside of your back to preaching but I want to tell some folks here tonight pointing over you didn't start out like you are tonight I said shouldn't start out like you are tonight year by year day by day there's been evolving of the power of the Spirit there's been a diluting of the power of the Holy Ghost the greatest thing we can do for our young preachers as only ministers is teeth the firebird quit counting on the young people to worship God if you can do an arthritic hand up put it in the air it's not time to retire it's time to refire in America I have uses several places when I appreciate camps I used to use this may I borrow it tonight the reason there's so many teenage icicles is because our pews are full of obstacles and popsicles there was a day you partying over whereas crispy saints you are snapping you are cracking and youa popping but you come to mark now and lay in the bottom of the bowl and soak up the milk if I should preach them in America tonight your revivals not in the young preacher your revival is in the retiring

of the 40 and over

it cannot end this way I refuse to start out a line and end up a mouse I refuse to start out a volcano hand up a drill I refuse to start out an all-star and end up a benchwarmer are you satisfied to draw your whole ego social security or are you ready to come out of those views I'd say it's not over yet it's not over yet it's not over I'm not gonna let it end this way Jesus last visit to Jerusalem on his way to Calvary was characterized by through outstanding characters one was that just and the other was bartimaeus it was his last time to come through the city and the two men that are missing in Scripture one of them was short and felt like he needed to get higher because it was the last time it was the end the other one was blind head felt like I need to see the last two men that Jesus worked for as he came through Jerusalem was a Zacchaeus that was climbing and apart Emmaus that was crying refusing to let it end this way what I'm saying is we need our older ministers to get the desperation doc we need our older ministers to get the fire back we need our older ministers to get the zeal back we need come on somebody it's time for you preachers to recognize we're not going to sit down it's documented in history years ago a soccer match was taking place final seconds were ticking off the clock a player on the field with adrenaline pumping thrilled about the competitiveness of his team with a deep disregard for the rules of soccer final such as Clinton wanting to win the game coke the ball in violation the rules and began to run down the field knocked in the opposition down we even threw the crowds to no avail as far as that game was concerned because he violated the rules but the crowd came to their feet and loved it and cheers as he disregarded the rules with only one thing in mind getting the ball across the line and history bears out a brand new game was born called rugby and in opposition to soccer in rugby you can't catch them all and you can run with them all but a die saw the clock ticking down and he said I know what the rules but I want to win and it came this way ha I know I'm over 40 and I should settle down but you haven't looked at the clock I'm not should need a young man doing the shouting but the clocks running down now and I don't care what the rules are I wanna wear

well I'm praying before I get through preaching tonight I can light a fire under somebody that's over 40 years old a preacher's wife and a preacher who's decided you're going to ride it all out you got your social security you got a little retirement you got a little house and you got a nice solution but it needs to be more than that are you in your dream tonight are you gonna let in the

end without your dream being fulfilled Lord your servant I am breaking into some difficult areas tonight strongholds of the enemy but I want to tell you something when that angel gave that Annunciation that a miracle child would be born there was two messages one was to the Virgin Mary that she would bring forth the Christ child the other was to her cousin Marin Elizabeth who was married but Barry who was exposed but never can see the last day revival will not just be the virgin territory of whole missions the Mary areas of our America but God wants to visit the Elizabeth ministries the Elizabeth churches that are old and in married for years but you never know the joy of bouncing babies in your altars you've never known the joy of you convert spray through the angel said Mary we'll have a boy and the good news to the Mid American revival conferences they are barren it's going to begin to break forth in Holy Ghost revive I wish somebody would jump up and say I'm over 40 but I want it imported by but I want it I may be 50 but I want it I may be 55 but our somebody's to canalis beer screaming I won't let it in like this you're not gonna put me in a grave without a revival you're not gonna put me in a rest home without a revival you're not going to put me on Social Security without a revival I'm not gonna lay my Bible down without a miracle I'm not going to quit this preaching business I took God does what is promised the Holy Ghost whispered to me as I entered this sanctuary like a revival for this region is not in youth not now there's still a revival for the gray heads if they're not willing to let it end this way John according to history was bald it all and banished Oh panelist you might say was barked and banished I preached her night to some preachers who are burnt and feel bad but John says it a near-miss way and I just wasn't second my son at mark conference crying cause I'm 55 I John 155 years old and mad at the

organization cause nobody calls me to preach anymore but uh John wasn't gonna let it in that way ah was in the spirit of the law or stay it's time to get over your birth condition that feeling banished I get in the Holy Ghost

I see the same thing happening tonight in this church that happened to John it will vultures were flying around wait no any man just wait no Mina well there's one thing about vultures they can't handle what's living all they can handle is what's dead I want to sell in somebody here tonight to do what the devil can't do the devil sale and cannot get up I said the devil fail but there's no way for him to get up you may feel like a failure tonight you may feel like you you lost your dream tonight but what you need to say is rejoice not against me Oh Miami for where I fall it's not gonna end that way when I fall it's not gonna hear that way but uh I like what some preacher to jump up and say devil you haven't seen the last of me devil you ever seen the last of me I may be over 40 but me and you are true you're young bucks could shout all you want to but it's up in windows over 40 shell cuz most of you young guys ain't never been hit yet it's one thing to dance when you never been hit you've never had folks in love you walk off from you and gossip about you you've never had folks a lie about you you've never had folks who attack your kids but they thought were some folks are over 40 that come back when the enemy comes against them they review solidity in that way come on where you guys at over 40 y'all go sit down watch me tonight are you gonna come out of there that's a devil you and I got one more fight buddy you and I got one more round you have seen the last of me at pal there is there does that's what I'm talking about there's yes I'm saying man America will have a revival with the gray hairs

everybody under 40 lift your hands at play for everybody over 40 God will stir revisit that America quit using your age for a cop-out you don't have to be petrified to be dignified you have to be cool because you're all god bless you for the call thought that's why your churches in revival god bless you my brother the spirit of KM I want my belt on I want batter I placed some pastor over 40 college it is why by the hand step out in that I'll say sugar but it ain't over where we are you hear me it ain't over here devil you might as well get your boxers off of my porch you might as well quit surfing me there's still fire here that's still fire here and we're still they have a closed that lid yet they haven't shut that lid yet and as long as I've got breath I'm gonna have a bomb everybody under 40 play this to be the revival men America has been waiting on yesterday that Mike threw out here the devil's been lying to you telling you it's passed you by I say in the name of Jesus it has not passed you by it is not over don't let it end this way

you don't need to resign your church you need another touch of the Holy Ghost

you don't need a resignation you need a revival

hear me tonight stay right where you are there should be more than this out here so I can't quit preaching right now listen to me folks the rules of drama and the principle of life is this entrances are brief but exits are eternal it's not how you come into this yeah ciao you go out of this we must not come in shout and go out howdy we must not come in glad and go out man say how are your folks every pastor and his wife that's over 40 come down here I'm going to ask you to come down here I have never done this in my ministry I felt this in the Holy Ghost this afternoon I told you gods seem to speak to me that in Mid America your revival is not going to come through youth it's going to come through our scenes and the ministers getting back what they've let the devil steal I did you a battle dot therefore hearken and I will do as he has said what many of you are battling in the spirit is what happens in the flesh you have become not only physical grandparents you have become spiritual grandparents and what do you mean by that I mean our churches are amazing sometime like our our children are amazed at the difference of our response to our children and our grandchildren Bill Cosby said he asked his daddy mom one time why is it that the things I used to get beat to death over you let the grandkids go he said then I got a revelation that grandparents are just old people trying to get into heaven

my application is this you are putting up with stuff in your church now 15 years ago would have driven you nuts you already people get by now with stuff 15 years ago you shut that music you are setting no way we're gonna have turtle with its track but when you become a grandparent it's like well it's not always there and at least the darlings are you but that's why that's all you got is darlings showing up and nothing going on it's because you've pet it on and into the first half of today's message

you may now turn the cassette over

so the things of God aren't understood by the life I love them in your relaxed condition I went to gob and we either over pony could get that power back and go back to that pulpit and say this is the way it's going to be folks its revival or nothing it totally goes I'm nothing we're not going to be satisfied with the place sucks the end mediocrity

I have chaos but I if you will stand I will spend with you if you will cry I will hear if you will contend I will give you victory your dreams are not dead they only sleep but I have come to awaken them tonight I have come to alert them tonight and you will once again feel the pan of my call and the burden of my ministry and a fire a Mayan I think if once again you will stand before me say it here we go again I've never done this and so I will be careful how I do it but I feel this so strongly just position yourself first of all and then I will give you instructions as to what to do for every minister that's here that's over 40 I want a young minister under 40 to come stand beside him for every minister over 40 down here I want a minister under 40 to come stand beside him for every pastor's wife or minister's wife that's here that's over 40 I want a young lady to come and stand beside her quickly all Erin and her had to do to win the victory was hold up the hands of move

young preachers don't get the idea that these me and stand between you and your own idols God will bring you revival as you hold their hands up I don't want you young man to lay your hands on the heads of these elders because that would be out of order but I want you to lay your hand on their shoulder you ladies lay your hands on the shoulders of these older women and before we pray hear the word of God in the year that King Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon the throne higher lifted up and his train filled the temple above it stood the Seraphim each one had six wings with twain he covered his face with twain he covered his feet and with 22 flying one cried unto another and said holy holy holy is the lord of hosts the whole earth is full of his glory notice the whole earth was full of his glory but the Bible said in verse number four and the post or the pillars of the door moved at the voice of him that cried and the house was filled with smoke the glory that was on the outside feel the answer with Holy Smoke when the pillars of the church move and his word I am challenging the pillars of the people tonight the elders who have held this thing up

the post of the church what the Bible said when they started moving the smoke filled the house if we can pray tonight and the Holy Ghost 10 movie pillars if the holy cows can move these foundational leaders if the holy cows can move when our churches build on the smoke is fixing to feel miss temple young people pray right now elders every preacher over 40 lift your voice and shout detainee in this way detain him this way I won't let it end this way my ministry not over my revival is not over my church is not brutal with my dreams are not dead throw your hands up and shout it came this way come on odors the young ministers are looking at you right now
