And uh God choosing to work through It might not be who you would select But it's who God chooses I didn't ask God to be a preacher God chose me to be a preacher I didn't ask God amen to be a leader God chose me to be a leader and who God chooses God anoints and God equips Deacon Fred to do the work and the will of God God speaks to me God speaks how many know that God speaks yes the Lord speaks He speaks to me and so that's why I can stand and speak a word and I could hit you right where you're at because God told me amen and God knows what's going on how many know that the Lord knows what's going on yes he knows what's going on he chooses the prophet and he chooses him the Bible says in Isaiah chapter 6 and verse 1 in the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord. I saw him, also the Lord, sitting upon a throne, and he was high and lifted up. Isaiah gives that he saw a vision of the Lord, and his train began to fill the temple. And so he saw the Lord's presence come into the temple. And uh he saw the seraphims, and each one had six wings, and twain, two covered their face, two covered their feet, and with two they did fly. I'm in the book of Isaiah, chapter six, and verse number two. And he they did fly. We'll go back in a minute to Isaiah 57. I'm just leading you up, giving you some background on Isaiah. Amen. Because amen, some folk say that they're chosen by God, but God who God chooses, God anoints and uses. And so he saw something from God. And uh, can you imagine? Amen. Can you imagine? He saw the seraphims. Now we know there's seraphims, cherubims, and then the Bible speaks of just messenger angels. These are all angels of the Lord. But the seraphims are different than the cherubims. And so he saw that they had six wings, and uh the six wings of twain two covered the angel's face. And then uh two uh covered their feet, and then the other two they flew with them. Yes, and then the Bible says, and one cried unto another, saying, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts. And so their job is to move with the Spirit of God and pronounce, Holy is our God. Hallelujah. Yes, our God is holy. Yes, he's holy, he is the holiest, yes, and then he says, the whole earth is filled with his glory. And then the Bible says that when the presence of God began to fill the temple, that the post of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke or his presence. Even when God ascended upon the temple, even the door post shook at the presence of God. Everything has to move at the presence of God. And the Bible says that it shook. And then said the prophet, Woe is me, for I'm undone, because I'm a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of people of unclean lips, for my eyes have seen the king, the Lord of hosts. So Isaiah realized that he was unclean and undone. And he realized that he seen the Lord. And then he said, One of the seraphims flew unto me, having a live coal in his hand. So, yes, they have hands. And uh he took the tongue from off the altar, and he laid that coal upon my lips, and said, Thy iniquity is taken away, and thy sins is purged. And so, in that time, the angel went to the there's an altar in heaven. And the angel went and took tongues and took the coal out of the altar and put it on Isaiah's lips, and says, You are now clean and your sins are purged. In today's dispensation, in order for you to get your sins purged and your sins taken away, amen. You've got to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost for the promises unto you, unto your children, unto all that are far off, as many as the Lord thy God shall call. Amen. And he says, when he purged his sins, he said, I also heard the voice of the Lord. So the prophet hears the voice of the Lord. If God has called you to speak and proclaim, then you must be able to hear God's voice. You can't proclaim the will and work of God if you don't know his voice. He says, My sheep, they know my voice, and a stranger they won't follow. Yes, you've got to know the voice of the Lord. Not the voice of your conscience, not the voice of your mind, not the voice of what people are saying. You've got to know the voice of the Lord. And when you know the voice of the Lord and you heard from the Lord, and God gives you something, it's best for you to say it like God told you to say it. Somebody say hallelujah. The Bible says, he said, and I heard the voice of the Lord saying, Whom shall I send? Good God Almighty. He gets his commission not from man, but from God. And he heard God says, Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? Then Isaiah said, Here am I. Send me. He heard the voice of the Lord. And the Lord told him, He said, Send me. The Lord said, Go and tell this people. Hear you indeed, but understand not. See you indeed and perceive not. Make the people, the heart of the people fat, and make their ears heavy. Shut their eyes as they see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart and be converted and be healed. And so what God gave the prophet was a word to heal the people. He gave them a word to deliver the people. He gave them a word from straight from God to help the people. Don't you know you can speak the word of God to help people, and people resist what God wants to do. But I don't know about you. What God wants me to do, I want to do what God wants me to do. Zimbabwe, I want to do what God wants you to do. I don't want to resist God. I don't want to resist what God is trying to do for me. And so we pick it back up, Brother Mike, in Isaiah 57. And then Isaiah 57 in verse number one. Amen. Give me about 30 minutes, amen, and I'll be gone. Amen. I'm going to uh Chester. I got to preach up there at 3 o'clock in the name of the Lord. Amen. Give me about 30 minutes and I'm gone. Amen. He says, the righteous man perish and no man lay it to heart. So during that time, they were treating the people of God bad. And the people were turning on one another. And he said, the righteous man perish, and no man lay it to heart, and the merciful men are taken away. But none does consider. None is considering what's going on. None are taking thought of what's happening. None are saying, Amen, just like in today's time. We're seeing the signs that the Lord is going to come back. And we're seeing the signs of wars, rumors of wars, earthquakes in diverse places. They're calling good evil and evil good, but nobody is considering it or taking it to heart. Instead of the people getting closer to God, the people are moving further away from God. But there is a remnant here in the earth that no one sees what's going on. And they refuse to pull away from God, but they want to get closer to the Lord. If that's you, say hallelujah. I want to get closer to God. Yes, I want to get closer to God. No one's considering. Things are shifting in the atmosphere. We're seeing Ezekiel 38 and 39 get ready to play out in our own eyes. Gog and Magog, Tubal, Meshach, all the nations coming down, Persia coming down upon Israel. We're seeing things being lined up. And the Lord is get ready to come back. And he's raising up men and prophetic voices to declare the coming of the Lord. And he's crying loud and telling the people, look up for your redemption draweth nigh. And we don't have time to be fooled around in this life. We've got to get closer to God than ever before. And what we need is preachers that will stand up on truth and tell the people what thus saith the Lord. And that message is to tickle them. Make them feel good. Make them feel like we need somebody. How many of y'all want to hear the truth of God's word? Don't lie to me. Give me the truth. He says, none consider it. That the righteous is taken away from the evil to come. There's some evil that's about to come upon the face of this earth. There's some things. Let's get ready to change. The Bible says, because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. People in general are cold now. People don't won't reciprocate love. Don't know how to reciprocate love. You can love on folk, amen, and they don't know how to handle it. People are getting colder and colder with the things of the world and get closer to the world than this of God. And God has given me a mandate to stand up and cry loud. To give the people an understanding how much God loves them and how much God don't want them to fail. God wants you to make it. How many know that God wants you to make it? But God gives everybody free will. He wants you to make it. The Bible says, He shall enter into his peace and they shall rest in their beds. Each one walketh in his uprighteeness. Then in verse number three, the Lord began to deal with Isaiah against Israel. To tell them what was going on with Israel. He called them you sons of sorcerers, the seed of an adulterer. And the whore. And so he deals with them on a spiritual level. He's talking about spiritual adultery. Spiritual sorcery. Spiritual whoredoms. Because now they've left the one and only true God and found themselves another lover. Anything that you put before God becomes an idol in your life. Oh, I know I'm preaching right in here. I don't care what it is. When you put it before God, it becomes an idol in your life. It becomes an idol. Well, what can become an idol? Anything you put before God is an idol. And so idolatry was running rapid. And God used the prophet to speak a word to the people. And he says to them, Amen. Against whom do you sport yourselves? Against whom make you a wide mouth and draw out the tongue. Are you not children of transgression? And the seed of falsehood. Now, transgression is different from sin and iniquity. Transgression is deliberately and intentionally breaking God's laws and God's covenant. That's transgression. See, you go from sinning to iniquity, then the transgression. In other words, you're just deliberately and willfully breaking God's truth, breaking God's commandment, and breaking God's law. Oh, glory. Amen. I feel God now. Yes, I got to make it clean. Intentionally, intentionally. It's one thing to slip up. It's another thing to have a strong hope. But it's a third thing to just do it because you like what you're doing. That's transgression. And he called them children of transgression and the seed of falsehood. Glory to God. Glory to God. I'm just telling you. Amen. He said, inflaming yourselves with idols, they're in idolatry. Under every green tree. Slaying the children in the valley under the cliffs of the rock. They were feeding their children in the valley of Heman to Mola. They were taking their children, their babies, and sacrificing them. Putting them in the fire. And when they put them in the fire, they were offering their children to the devil. And sometimes, amen, if we're not careful with our children, we'll let the world get a hold of them. And we're not got a hold of them, we'll offer them up to the devil. We'll let the devil get them. Amen. And so we that's why we need to make sure that we're our children being raised in the church. That they're hearing the word of God. That they're getting what they need from the Lord. Amen. And so they would put them in the fire and burn the fire. And then what they would do is they would beat the drums real loud. So they couldn't hear the kids screaming and yelling. They couldn't hear them crying. So they would beat the drums so they could drown out the screams because it was off them up to another God. Amen. We know that our children belong to nobody but God. We belong to God. Train up a child in the way that they shall go. Train them up in the church. Let them know who God is. Because if you don't, the world certainly will let them know who their small G-O-D is. Amen. Hallelujah. He says, these things they were doing in the open. That's why it was transgression. They were openly doing these things. He said, Among the smooth stones of the stream is thy portion, and they are your lot. Even to them that has poured drink offering, and thou hast offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these things? The Lord says, I don't get no delight in these things. Anything that you put before me, I don't delight in that. I'm a jealous God. And my glory I will not give to another. You can't share me with the world. You can't share me with nobody else. Amen. I am a jealous God. How many of you know that God is a jealous God? Yes. He's a jealous God. The Bible says you're openly, they were openly idolizing and worshiping idols openly. Upon a loft and high mountain, thou hast set thy bed. That's where you're spending your time. Even thou wentest thou up to offer sacrifices. But in verse number eight, he switches to what he sees openly. And then he begins to deal with what's going on behind closed doors. Yes. He says, and behind the doors also the post has thou set up thy remembrance. Now you remember, amen, in Exodus, when the people left out, they were supposed to put the blood of the Lamb on the doorpost, amen, to remember that God's getting ready to pass by and they were saved. Now they're putting something else on the doorpost. And instead of remembering God, they're remembering something else behind closed doors. Yes, but God knows what's going on behind the closed doors. Yes, God sees everything. How many know that God sees everything? He sees everything, He knows everything. Here's what He said You have you have set up the post and set up remembrance. For thou hast discovered thyself to another other than me. Good, God Almighty. Yes. You showed yourself to another other than me. And uh and are gone up and has enlarged your bed. You made room for something else other than me and made a covenant with them that thou lovest their bed where thou saw it. So God began to deal, amen, with Israel. Because, amen, they've taken up other small G-O-Ds and begin to court them and worship them and have a relationship with something else other than eternal God. I thank God Almighty that I know who He is. Hallelujah. I thank God that I will put no other gods before him. Put nothing before God. People get mad when you tell them don't put nothing else before God. Yes, I don't put my wife before God. I love her to death, but I don't put her before God. I don't put my children before God. Love them to death, but wouldn't put them before God. I wouldn't put, amen, my job before God. Amen. I wouldn't put amen anything before eternal God. Nothing. Nothing would I put before God. Are you listening to me? Because it becomes your idol. I wouldn't put money before God. So many people sell out in the church for money. Because they put money before God. Amen. I wouldn't put any if anything you put before God, it's an idol. It's an idol. It's an idol. God deserves all the honor. God deserves all the praise. God deserves to be exalted. He deserves to be lifted up on high. I know the Lord does, because the Lord told me. The Lord told me I can trust you. Because you always push the people to give me glory. And God deserves the glory. And as long as we in here, we're going to lift him up on high and give him glory. Let me go a little further. I feel something in the atmosphere. I got to cut through like a knife. I got to cut through it like a knife. We serve God his way, not the way we want to serve him. We serve God the way God wants to be served. Not the way we want to serve him. But how he chooses to be served. The priest couldn't offer God just anything. They offer God a one-eyed lamb. The offering of a three-legged lamb. In the book of Malachi, he told them, You're cursed with a curse. You can't just give God everything. You got to give God your best. I want to give God my best because God gave his best. For God so loved the world, he gave his only begotten Son. That whosoever believed on him shall not perish, but shall gain eternal life. Amen. I want to give the Lord my best. How many of y'all want to give God your best? He deserves the best. They stretched him wide and hung him high. But he did not come down off that cross. He could have called and sent down a legion of angels and delivered him from their persecution. But he would not come down. And to God be the glory. To God be the glory. He was obedient all the way to death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God has highly exalted him and given him a name that's above everything. Name that in the name of Jesus Christ, every knee shall bow, every tongue shall confess that he's Lord to the glory of God. I don't know about you, but I'm gonna give God my very best. I'm gonna give him my best in my praise, the best in my offering, the best in my servitude, the best in what I'm doing. I'm gonna give God the best. I need about three of you who really want to give God your best. I'm gonna give him my best. I'm gonna give God my best. You can't stop me from giving God my best. You can't hinder me from preaching the best that I can preach for God. You can't stop me from giving God my best worship. I'm gonna let you do it. I'm gonna give God my best. I'm gonna go home tired. I'm gonna go home with my feet hurting. I'm gonna lose my blood. Cause I'm gonna give God my breath. Because He gave me His breath. I will not let you stop me from giving God my best. And don't you want to let them stop you from giving God your best? Somebody go and give God your best. The devil is a liar! He's been too good to me. And he's been too good to some of y'all. Send some of us from the eyes of drug addiction. Live of horror and fornicated. Send some of us when no one else wanted nothing to do with us. Just some of our minds. Deal some of our bodies. Deliver us from the devil. To God be the glory. I will give God my blessing. I know how to deal with that spirit. I know how to deal with that spirit. The devil is alive. I've got enough annoying to break every chain. To pull every feature down. To destroy all the works of the devil. God anointed me to do it. God anointed me to do it. God anointed me to do it. You can be seated in the presence of the Lord. Glory to God. What are you doing behind closed doors? What's going on behind your closed doors? What are you doing when the lights are out? What are you doing when you think nobody's watching? See, here are people, our people are worrying about other people seeing them. I could care less who sees me. I'm more worried about him seeing me. He's got the heaven or hell to put me into. What are you doing behind closed doors? Are you sharing your bed with another lover? Just tell you what the Lord told me. Are you sharing your bed with another lover? Last week you fell out of your bed. TJ, you know I love you. Who what are you doing behind closed doors? That you don't think nobody else knows? Let me give you just a little bit of a little bit of information here. God knows and sees everything. Matter of fact, you can fool some of the people some of the time. But you can't fool God none of the time. And because I have a relationship with God, God reveals it to me. What's going on behind closed doors? Are you praying? Are you believing God? Are you fasting? Are you worshiping God? What are you doing behind closed doors? Because when you come together, it's going to reflect in the house of God what you're doing behind closed doors. Now, now, where are my worshipers at? Because I know what my worshipers are doing. My worshipers are worshiping him behind closed doors. I gotta go a little further. I ain't making no friends in here. I didn't come to make any. Yes, I come to do what the Lord called me to do. Yes. He says in verse number nine, Brother Mike, we gotta hurry up. They looked at himself down the way. And uh thou wentest to the king with ointment and did increase thy perfume. And did send by the messages that are far off and did uh debase thyself even unto hell. Something going on behind closed doors. God wants to turn us around. What are you putting before God? What is it that you've given precedence over an eternal God who sits among the circles of the earth? Heaven is his throne and the earth is his footstone. What is man but a drop in the bucket? What have you put ahead of God that you can't do servitude and serve God? What do you put in place of the one and only true God? Whatever it is, it's idolatry. It's idolatry. And what we need is more preachers that tell people the truth instead of making people comfortable in the house of the Lord. Yes, you're supposed to be uncomfortable in the house of the Lord until we get it together. Amen. How many of y'all want to get it right with God? I'm trying to go to heaven. Am I trying to go to heaven? I'm trying to go to heaven. Okay. Amen. Thou art word in the greatness of thy way. And saith thou, there is no hope. Verse number 10, there's no hope. Thou hast found the life of thine hand. Therefore thou wast not grieved. Thou be moved from sin, from sin to iniquity. Now transgression. See when you're transgression. You don't have any grievance.

SPEAKER_00 29:02

What you do is what do you think is right.

SPEAKER_01 29:24

The Bible says him to know to do good and do it not. We know to do better. But we're not doing it, so that means we're sinning. That's the word of the Lord. Nobody's got time to take their time and come to the house of the Lord and to spend time and want to make it back with God, to hear the preacher get up and say something to make the people feel good, to sugarcoat the people, the people whoop and hollow and shout in the church and still in sin. Preachers were living a life that's not conducive to holiness. Living one way on this side of the door. But behind closed doors, you another way. Oh, y'all gonna make me preaching here this morning. And no one think no one has no discernment to know that you're one way outside of the door, and behind closed doors, you another way. When God raises up somebody, he gives them the spirit of discernment. You discern what's going on. God shows you what's going on. Oh, glory. And let me go here. I gotta get up the road. And whom thou hast I made afraid? What he says, verse number 12. And of whom thou hast been afraid of or feared that thou hast lied. So he says, you used to be afraid, but now you're lying. Now, now I've got the part right here because there's I want to give you, there's four types of liars. And we know that Satan is the father of all lies. Now, I'm gonna make sure that it's not just me. How many of y'all hate being lied to? I hate a liar. I can't trust him. I can't stand a liar. Because a liar is real close to Satan. Because he's the father of all lies. Amen. And so I was looking at this this morning. There are four types of liars. The first one is a compulsive liar who's just habitual. And uh it just little stakes don't matter, they just habitually lie. The second one is a pathological liar. They use their lies to be persistent and manipulative. They like to manipulate. That's a pathological liar. And uh, and then there is a sociopathic liar, one that's dishonest, self-centered, and ruthless. In any event, uh they're a liar. And God can't stand lies. And he said, all liars shall have their place in the pit. All liars. And so you moved from telling the truth and having fear of God to now lying. And God has shifted us from our old ways, and we're supposed to be walking in the newness of life. Have y'all ever anybody ever been lied to? You've been lied to? How'd you feel when you were lied to? Didn't like it. And you felt like I could never trust that person again because they lied to me. They broke my confidence. And so to lie to God is crazy. Not knowing that God knows everything. And right now and on today, I curse every lying demon, every lying spirit that would get on the people of God and make them liars. When God had called us out of darkness to his marvelous life. Tell the truth and shame the devil. Yes. He says, Thou have lied and not remembered me. Forgotten all about God. Nor laid it to thy heart. Have not I held my peace of old, and thou fearest me not. God said, I held my peace, figuring that you would change. And I watched you, but you're not changed. So now it's time for me to talk. I'm not holding my peace no more. God said, Call it out, preacher. Call out those lying spirits and lying demons that run around and lie just to be lying. I curse that demon back to the pits of hell. Every whoremongering spirit. Every spirit that's contrary to sound doctrine. Amen. God wants his people free. Amen. Anybody want to be free in here today? Yes. Hallelujah. He says in verse number 12, Brother Mike, I will declare thy righteousness and thy works, for they shall not profit thee. When thou cries, let but you trust in deliver thee. But the wind shall carry them all away. Vanity shall take them, but thou put his trust. But he that putteth his trust in me, the Lord says, shall possess the land. And shall inherit my holy mountain. Put your trust in the living God, and the Lord will get you the glory. Don't trust, amen, in the things and works of your hand. Don't trust in people. Don't trust in idol worship. Get back to the basics and putting your trust in the living God. Anybody trust the Lord in here? And shall say, cash ye up. Cash ye up, prepare the way. Take up the stumbling block out of the way of my people. So God now is removing the stumbling block. Look at what the Lord told me. The stumbling block. The people has put a stumbling block between them and God. Because they love what they're doing. They love it. And the stumbling block is causing you not to get what you need from God. It's causing you not to feel God like you used to feel God. Because there is a stumbling block that you've allowed the enemy to set before you and you keep stumbling over the same thing. But thank be to God that God wants to give you some help. Good glory. God wants to give you some help. Amen. I don't want to stumble over the same thing over and over again. I want God to help me. Anybody want God to help me? And I'm going to show you something else in a minute. Because some folk don't want no help. They don't want help. They want to stay in what they're in. And God calls that a stumbling block. So he says, prepare the way, take up the stumbling block out of the way of the people. For thus saith the high and lofty one that inhabits eternity. I dwell in a high and holy place. With him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit. To revive the spirit of the humble and revive the heart of the contrary ones. So even though the people had gotten another lover against God, in God's mercy, he says, if you humble yourself and get a contrite spirit, a contrite spirit is a repentant attitude with God. And he says, if you get a contrite spirit and a humble spirit, I will forgive you and revive you. I will revive you and I will revive the heart of the contrite ones. So even this is how much God loves the people. Even though the people turned away from God to serve other gods, God is willing to give them another chance. Thank God for another chance. But here's what's keeping the stumbling block. The stumbling block is there because the people are prideful. They're prideful. They don't want to come to God and tell God they need help. They don't want to go to God and tell God they need deliverance. They don't want to come to God and tell God they're sorry. They don't want to come to God and tell God, I repent, God, you know what I did. God help me. God help me. God said, I will revive you. And he says, For I will not contend forever, neither will I be always wroth. For the spirit should fell before me and the souls which I have made. And God says, I have, for the iniquity of this covenants, I was mad. And I smoted him and I hid myself from him. And that's why they can't really feel God. And uh he said, and uh he went on forwardly in the ways of his heart. He couldn't feel me, but they kept going the way that they were going. I have, verse 18, seen his ways. I will heal him, I will lead him also and restore and comfort him and to his mourners. So the Lord says, even though, even though you did me like that, even though you cheated on me, even though you cheated on me. Now, some of us have been in relationships and uh the other person cheated on the other person. I know none of y'all, because nobody cheated on y'all. But been in a relationship and they cheated on you. Now, some of y'all took nothing else to do with the cheater. Now, some of y'all took the cheater back and then they cheated on you again. She now shaking her head, mm-mm mm mm. I don't want them back. No, no, I'm done with them. Done with them cheated on me. It's over. But God is so merciful. Even though we've cheating on God and putting other things in place of God. God is merciful. God wants to heal us. And we come to God with a repentant heart, a humble and contrite spirit and ask God to forgive us. God said, I will restore you. I will revive you and I will heal you in the name of the Lord. There's healing in God. And when God heal you, don't go back the same way that you came. But he's looking for someone with a humble spirit and a contrite heart. Some folk, the devil's got so prideful, they won't ask God to forgive them. I ask God to forgive me a whole lot of time. Right? Ask God, God help me. Forgive me, Lord. Amen. But some folk are prideful. Too prideful to know that they need God. That's why some people come into church. Amen. When I come into church, I come into church with tears running down my face. I could care less. I could care less what the people thought about me. I could care less what they said. I could care less what they thought. I could care less what they thought was going on with me. I could care less. All the thing I wanted was God to help me. I wanted God to revive me. I wanted God to build me up. And above all things, I want to be right with God. Yes. How many of y'all want me right with God? I want to be right with God. I want my heart right. I want my mind right. I want my body right. I want my spirit right with God. That God can use me to his glory. Hallelujah. I don't care what you think is going on with me. I'm just going to make my way to the altar. I'm going to humble myself before the King. Ask God to revive me. There is no revival. There is no revival without repentance. There is no, you can keep going on, but there is no revival without repentance. There is no revival. There is no deliverance without true repentance. Without getting your heart postured in the right way towards God. There is no help, no healing except you humble yourself before the Lord and ask God, God, help me. I need help. I need help. I put something else before you. I let something else take your place. I put something else in my bed. Yes, they've enlarged their bed. Can you imagine? It'd be a time. Amen. Me and my wife, honey, I'm talking to you. Turn around. Me and my wife. It'd be a time. That nice bed we got. And I come in there in that bed now, and somebody else is in that bed. My God, my God. Amen. That would be a time, let me tell you. I don't know, honey. That'd be a time going on in there. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. It might be over. I'm trying to tell you, it'd be over. Yeah, it'd be over. I I just couldn't touch you no more. I'm just being honest. Preacher, you got to forgive. Yes, I forgive you, but you got to get your stuff and going out of here. I forgive you. Love you, I forgive you. But you got to go. Now God is so merciful that even in our wrongdoing, even in our selfishness, even when we put other lovers before God, that God has stretched out wide. Saying, Come unto me, all you who are believing and heaven, and I'll give you rest. I'll heal you from your backsliding. I'll heal you from your idolatry. I'll heal you from your sin. God we serve. Yes. Some of y'all, husband would have cheated on you before you even got home. You call him and tell them. I want your stuff outside. I done called the sheriff, and you got to go. You got to go. You got to get out of here with that. But God is merciful. Who would do that? Who would do that? God used the prophet in the book of Hosea. I'm very close. The book of Hosea. He said, go you out and marry a wife, a wife, or whore them. Go out and marry a wife, a wife, or whoredom. Go marry one. The prophet went out and got one. Baby, I can't use no example. Come here, baby. I'm gonna use an example. And he went out and he found her. And he said, Come on home with me. And he took her home with him. And he loved her. And he married her. But he should have known better by the pep that she had in herself. That she wasn't faithful. And he took her and he loved her with the love of God. And amen. And by the time, amen, he would wake up in the morning, she would be gone. And he wake up and she was gone. And the Lord told him, Go find her. And he said, I don't know where he said, go find her. And she had two children on outside of marriage against him. And when he went and found her there, he found her with her lover. But God put the love of Christ in him. And when he found her with her lover, he took her. Everybody was watching. Everybody was looking. And he found her. And he took her and he said, Come on back home with me. Be faithful to me. Help me to trust you. Don't run away on me again. I'm giving you another chance. I'm taking you back to me. Don't do it. And everybody was watching him and he took her back. And God took them back. I use you like this. So you can see how I feel. I love them. I brought them out of the harm. But they kept going playing the harm with other god. Hallelujah. But God says, I'm a forgiving God. Hallelujah. Oh, glory to God. Hallelujah. Yes, God is looking for you to repent. And get back to God. Repent and get back to God. Oh glory. Tell somebody repent. And get back to God. He loves you with an everlasting love. And with loving kindness as he drawing you. Yes. Yes. Put your heart right with God. He's soon to come back. Whatever you put before him, whatever you imagine in your bed, get rid of it. Come to God with repentance and tears. And ask the Lord to forgive you. He'll take you back. He's not like man. God will give you another chance. But don't keep taking the grace of God. Don't just keep taking it. He gets tired too. God told me to tell you. Here's your opportunity. To get whatever you put before God and whatever you've done behind closed doors under the blood. With repentance and tears. God said, I'll heal your backsliding. Are you listening to me? I'll revive your soul. I'll revive your spirit. And you can feel me once again. In the name of the Lord. Amen. Hallelujah. Yes, hallelujah. Somebody begin to clap for the Lord right now. Now here's an opportunity for us to come to the altar and talk to the Lord. I'm not going to pray for anybody. We're going to all ask God. I'm going to say a prayer of repentance. But you're going to have to talk to God for yourself. God wants to heal you. Your emotion. Your spirit. Your broken, wounded heart. God wanted to heal you. The very thing that you are letting something else be your healer. You know? Not in here. But there's a custom going out through the church. There's more people in the church now smoking marijuana than ever before. Using this self-medication. Medicating itself. You mean to tell me that the God that stretched forth the heavens and the earth and all that it dwells therein? That He can't get your mind right? Oh, yes, God is a healer. And whatever you got going on with you that's causing you, amen, to forget God, God wants to heal you from it. How many of y'all need healing? I need God to heal me. To heal me where I heard at. Make me whole. Renew me. Refresh me. Let me feel your presence again viable in my life. I don't want just a mercy tap. I want to live in the spirit. How many of y'all want to live in the spirit? You know, every now and then God will come in the church and give you a mercy touch. Or you be at home and God give you a mercy touch. Then you go months without feeling God. God wants you to live in the spirit. And in order for God to do that, you've got to have a humble heart and a contrite spirit so that God can heal you and revive your soul in the name of the Lord. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Brother Brother Daniel. Lift your hands to the Lord. I don't want nobody. Look around.
