but while the the the youth are dismissed we've checked on a couple of buildings this this week um some of them them were already on the contract some of them we hadn't heard back and some of them I drove by and I was like Lord surely Lord but in Psalms 21 I just want to show you a verse this is not part of the message [Music] Hallelujah verse one says the king shall joy in thy strength O Lord and in thy salvation how greatly shall he what Rejoice that kingly anointing is not something uh that you just shout through a microphone you some of you are going to experience increase from this day forward based on the grace that you received today y'all blessed Hallelujah let's let's do this a [Music] shout hallelujah glory to God oh Father we thank you I feel like praying father we thank you so much for the flow Lord of your anointing to speak and to hear to say and to receive father thank you you have commissioned us to this moment not to be drugged or dragged here not forced but father I believe that this Gathering here today is the result of a Call of a call from the secret place to those that had a ear you've touched our hearts and given us the desire to obey and not just obey grudgingly Lord but with the honor and the discovery that the Living God that calls us calls us and invites us into a mystery a mystery of strength you command us to have dominion and you command us at times to allow to look like our enem is winning so that you can win their heart father you invite us into the mystery and today Lord we come we come and we stand with others who stood in this same position this same posture in the spirit looking to the Lamb of [Music] God looking to you Lord and saying father your word brought us to this point feed us with knowledge and understanding so we enter into the grace of this moment Holy Spirit we thank you that you are going to do the mystery in us again right now the mystery of receiving the word of God the mystery of hearing words that become engrafted and it never leaves us for eternity father we thank you for the authority of Grace for the the commission of Excellence for the ability to hear the things that people have desired to hear from the foundation of the [Music] world father we thank you that this is not Grievous that the moment that you have prepared is more than sufficient so father We join our faith together right now that we will hear words that Lift Us Lift Our Heads above our circumstances yes but we also ask for words that will cause our eyes to be Enlighten that we will see with vision with clarity with Dominion the work that is before [Music] us father you will cause us you will cause us to rise in an anointing of faith that cannot be denied father we pray that you release such a word here today that heaven numbers every person that is here here today and heard this word that such a word will have to come with a charge father and in your waves let the word come let the strength to stand to be Supernatural sons and daughters in Jesus name amen hallelujah so this message of purity if you'll put the the icon the blue logo up this message of Purity is more than just uh a few verses that we put together but the Lord is we're going to go through the Book of James line upon line and I started us out three weeks ago in Revelations 17 and Revelations 18 I just want to get one verse out of each chapter because the revelation of the Book of James again is this he was releasing a word to the church to deal with a particular influence and when there is a particular influence then there needs to be a t particular word to that influence what I mean is if there's a situation in the spirit God God has to speak to that situation we know the book of galatian was written to bring them out of trying to fit Christianity inside of Judaism it wasn't meant to fit inside it was meant to take over somebody say Amen to that so the book of Galatians was written for that 1 and 2 Corinthians was written for the order of regular church services 1 and 2 Timothy was written for the order of the leadership of ministry and the seriousness of that the entirety of the Book of Revelation chapter 1 say is it is the revelation of Jesus Christ the Jesus that walked the Earth was not fully revealed so much so that when John saw him in chapter one he looked like one standing among the candlesticks and he looked like one whose eyes are flame of fire and then he looks like like one as a lamb that was slain before the foundation of the world and then he looks like one who's coming back uh riding a white horse Jesus changed uh uh from the Paradigm of a human walking in the Earth are y'all with me so Revelation was written to fully reveal the part of Christ that was not revealed when he walked on the earth well the Book of James was written to help the body of Christ into purity uh from what we saw in Revelations chapter 7 17 and chapter 18 again I'll give you a verse or two of the spirit of Babylon and her entrance and her influence into the uh spirit real her infection among the Nations now Paul writes certain things and you some of his writings Peter says in second Peter he says some of his stuff is hard to understand some of it's not don't fight come on y'all don't steal that's not hard don't stop praying that's not hard but some of Paul's writings were were written to to help the church to step out of culture here's the mystery of God that once you and I become born again our spirit is renewed and I've said this so many times and I have to continue to say it but once you are born again your mind is not automatically renewed if you had a scar on your elbow unless Jesus does a miracle at Salvation you're saved with a scar on your elbow if you remember falling off your bike when you were seven you're going to remember it after you were saved and if you remember any other places of trauma any other mindsets any other way of dealing with people are you with me any way of what you thought life was all about all of that's going to follow you into your salvation and then we begin the exercise Corinthians uh excuse me Romans chapter 12 uh begins of the renewing of the mind and so Paul was writing these letters and the rest of the uh apostles were were writing these letters says okay now you're born again but you need to understand what you've just entered into and when we became born again the devil didn't cease to exist some preachers say I believe in a very defeated Devil he's defeated concerning holding you in darkness but the Book of Revelation says not only is he still on the loose there's going to be a great a angel come with a great chain and bind him up and and put him in a pit for a thousand years then he's going to come out of the pit in a thousand years and he's going to go back to work and deceive the Nations to come against Jesus and his City sounds to me like he's still at work if he was not still at work if the devil was just a plainly defeated devil then we wouldn't have Ephesians chapter 6 that we wrestle not against flesh and blood that's why we have to put on the whole armor of God if the only devil that existed because we're saved now it was the only devil that exist is the one between your ears then there would be no fiery darts of the wicked and so the Bible is commissioning us is telling us that not only are we divorced from the fables of man not only are we divorced from the cultural leanings not only are we we from that but God also has to cleanse us from from from people who make Christianity into something that is not supposed to be I'll say this and we'll go into this word most of what Jesus taught was to correct their thinking about what they were already teaching most of what Paul taught was to correct the teaching of what was being taught about Jesus some 20 30 40 years after his resurrection and so no no matter how far we are from the cross no matter how much Bible we have God has to raise up a a remnant of shepherds of teachers are you listen to me are you listen to me not only are they pulling Revelation about what's going to happen about what God wants to do to take the church forward they also must look at what had the work that has been done and undone or done incorrectly in the body of Christ so you're leading people out of Darkness into light you're you're breaking error that has been taught in and around them and you're trying to lead them into what God is doing in their generation that is the work of the preacher somebody say Amen to that and you do this in an environment of demonic presence and Angelic presence back when I was growing up they used to say I don't want to get saved because being saved is boring now you were talking about your church you you were not talking about you not talking about the God that I serve amen you on the front lines of the greatest story in history let me give you a verse Revelation 17 we'll drop down verse one there came one of the Seven Angels which had the seven vows and talked with me John the Apostle saying come hither come here he says I will show unto you the Judgment of the great that sits where had got it yet it's not up on the screen Revelation 17 verse1 for those of you who have your learning instruments there it is the great that sits where upon many Waters verse two with whom the whom Kings plural of the Earth have committed fornication and the inhabitants of the Earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication verse five upon her forehead was a name written mystery Babylon the great the mother of harlots and Abominations of the earth verse six and I saw the woman this is a spirit drunken with the blood of the whom so not only is it producing uh fornication idolatry perversion it is also at its very core Antichrist it is completely against God to not serve Jesus is to already be under a different servitude there's there's there's there's no uh in in we're in a post postmodern uh Christian Nation right now that means it was Christian then it was postchristian which means after now we're after the after and so now people say well you know I'm not I'm not not only I'm I'm not religious I'm not an atheist I'm just nothing no you're not a nothing there's a spirit that has you drunk and when you don't choose Jesus you're already drinking out of a different cup and I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints come on y'all and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus that literally means through legal killing and when I saw her John says are warned with great admiration verse 15 and I'm not explaining this look go back and look at the other two parts of this message it's on YouTube he said the waters which you saw let's read the waters which you saw where the sits come on y'all are peoples multitudes and Nations and tongues this is not a Jewish thing this is definitely not an American thing I want to introduce to you today God is not American God so loved the oh yeah oh yes is this Spirit has Global influence chapter 18 and not only does she have Global influence this Spirit also verse 10 chapter 18 verse 10 because in chapter 17 verse 5 it says mystery Babylon the great 18:10 it says that the merchants standing a far off fear of her torment saying alas alas the great City what Babylon that Mighty City in one hour thy judgment is thy judgment come verse 11 and the merchants plural of the what so she had influence where on the earth and the merchants of the Earth shall weep and mourn over her they're not mourning for the killing of the Saints they're not mourning for the killing of the martys they're mourning because the financial system is no longer feeding them under her spirit watch for no man buyeth their merchandise anymore and you drop down verse 13 just for the just for the sake of getting you you not to really understand this thing it it begins the list all types of of items chapter 12 but in Chapter 13 is cinnamon and odors and O ointments and frankincense and all of these things we'll find at the store then you go down to the end of verse 13 it says and chariots and what come on slaves and what Souls of men what's the difference between a slave and a soul because this thing is designed to encapture whole people groups where you feel like you're free but you're not because you're still under that Spirit your whole life is preoccupied with with The Have And The Have Not So I need to get that to be satisfied I need to get that to be satisfied well I need to work five years to get that and none of that's in the will of God and so you you you you start to reach the end of your life and not realizing that your soul was held captivity are y'all with me today how many y'all if ever heard somebody say you know I would serve God but I got to stop doing what I'm doing and my money is good over here your soul was captured by that Spirit the love of money is the what that's the first scripture y'all learn after Jesus wept your grandma this city Babylon I'll get one more verse 24 it says and in her was found the blood of the prophets of the Saints let's read and of all that were slain upon the Earth so the spirit that inspired Cain was under this spirit so in the Book of James is written he is addressing let's go to James chapter 1 he is addressing the different ways to identify the activity of this spirit and he's admonishing the Believers to go through a process of intentional purification watch me with this in mind you don't wash your hat if if you're trying to clean your shoes come on you have to see what needs to be purged in order to bring your attention to that you don't put your shirt in the washer and your your your your coat is in the closet and you check the stain see if the stain left your shirt by looking at your coat you have to look come on if there's something to be worked on you have to observe that which needs to be worked on and apply purification to that which needs to be purified they have different ways of cleaning thing I still don't understand dry cleaning yet and it has a fluent but this book begins to describe and we'll get into it in the coming weeks and and months the processes and the ways of purification and I'm telling you one of these things some of it is intentionally breaking your own heart upon the altar of God listen to me but you don't get to bring your own soap a lot of us want to God oh God and pray our own prayer like God's G like yeah that's that's going to get you clean he's not no no I'm I'm not using your soap come on somebody I'm not using your processes I have my own listen to me there are some things you can't get loose out of until Jesus brings you through his loose loing process and so we get into this I almost feel like I have the whole book resting in my head but that's why he says you draw draw now to me I'll draw now to you and another place he says draw now to me you Sinners what's he saying what is he saying you have to come here and I will explain to you what's wrong with you to get you free in the way that I get people like you free and let me say to you this morning God is not in a bad mood with us he shed his blood his eyes were wide open he knew exactly what you were going through he knew exactly what you were going to be going through and he made provision for all of that his only goal his God's only urgency he's not urgently trying to send people to Hell he's not urgently trying to find out if you're sinning he's not urgently trying to find out what what what are you doing what are you doing what are you doing he's not urgently calling you around he's urgently trying to get you and I to discover him he ever liveth to make intercession for the Saints according to the will of God what is Jesus praying for you he's praying for us that we [Music] understand not cry more not repent more not run from here more to understand more and I see that you're ready so I go in let's go down to verse number 12 I believe that's where we sto are y'all blessed this morning so I have on some spectacles in the natural but now I have built you a pair in the spirit by taking you to Revelation 17 and 18 I built you some eyeglasses come on y'all a lens to look at these verses through so I feel like preaching now and and and I don't even have on my my my loafers praise God I don't know what I'm going to do praise the Lord verse 12 come on now we understand when God says blessed is the man that endures Temptation for when he is tried or tested or or or what the faith that he or she is in is now proven by pressure it says blessed is the man that goes through Temptation This spir he's trying come on he's here she's stepping away from this Spirit but this spirit is not stepping away from him I put my heart in church in prayer but but the world is still full of this spirit so I I come on I put my amens on the altar but as soon as I turn on the TV she's over hitting me in the airwaves I'm just going to watch this this is Holy then they'll hit you with a commercial blessed is the man that endures Temptation for when he has tried in Jes Jes we we we did dealt with this uh a great point last week when he has tried he shall receive the crown of life and that word Crown is a medallion it is a a deem it is a royal dressing it is a a royal Accolade it is a seal of his approval it's an access card it lit means that when God finds that if I tell you something you will resist that spirit in the earth and continue to do what I told you to do regardless of the pressure that is in the world I see that you're growing you're now mature come watch me now let's now do some real business oh I feel like preaching a lot of preachers this day they promise you the big business of God God wants to do great things with you but but they're not preaching to you the process of whom God does big business with big business requires a train transition of Kingdoms completely because he doesn't want your big business to be building the enemy's big business so he says when you're tried and you come through that season exactly how I ask you to do I will anoint you with promotion now listen to me part of this anointing that we received this morning of that kingly anointing was part of God's seal of of approval for this ministry and for those connected to it you don't have to completely understand that just stick it in your shirt pocket and use it later God has to have somebody that is walking in a higher measure if he's going to have a higher measure of manifestation the question is who is he going to use listen to me y' the gifts and calling to everybody but who is he going to use the Mandate on this house is to continue to pursue God until we achieve his ranks not his love he loves me but to achieve the ranks of his promotion not by works come on y'all but by obedience verse number 13 says this shall we see the Crown of Life which the Lord has promised to them that love him that literally means my love pulls me through Temptation verse number 13 it says let no man say when he is tempted I am tempted of God now watch this with the with the mindset of the woman the spirit on the beast in the background for God cannot be tempted with evil he's not on on on her payroll come on y'all neither neither tempts he any man he's not the mother of harlots and of the Abominations on the earth that's not him he's not up there struggling under the power of this Spirit he cannot be tempted with evil somebody say Amen to that God is not under the control of that Spirit at all he's not he's not delivered from it he never was under it and when we start talking about Holiness and we start talking about going into the reals of God and we talk about going into the holy places of God are y'all with me when we talk about receiving from God we're receiving from his presence a a a power and authority that was never under that spirit and he puts it inside of you I don't know about you that's good news and we'll get into that when it says the wisdom from God is pure and Peaceable means it was never under that Spirit he says let no man say when he is tempted that God is making him stumble for God cannot be tempted with evil neither tempts he any man and a lot of times we say you know what God must be pruning me God must be testing me but but but if if it is a trial that it is not God pressuring you with a sinful uh opportunity God will pressure you with get up at 5: in the morning I remember the first time I gave $100 bill in offering man my chest was stuck out I was like y'all remember that little plate with the little red bottom used to throw change in there and put that dollar in there oh you big you put five in there right what are you doing give me give me a change back come on I knew I was saved when I was releasing hundreds to Jesus that had nothing to do with sin it had everything to do is listen to me obeying him on a higher measure that's how God tests us the enemy wants to bring us back under his dark kingdom and James is saying here you're feeling pressure listen to me y'all but James is defining to the people he says you need to know who's causing the pressure that you're under you need to understand which spirit is trying to get your attention so then he goes into these next few verses he says verse 14 but every and I'm a whosoever I'm a all and I'm a every come on y'all doesn't matter if you're cute or not you ready but every that means all of us in here but every man every human every person is what tempted when when he she is drawn away see God never gives me something to be what drawn away when he says come come to me at 5: in the morning and it puts pressure on me CU I'm a night person he's not drawing me away but he is testing me the enemy will give you something like put God down and come do this for a minute that's a drawing away are y'all with me this morning but every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his what own lust or desire and entic what is entic is the same as in tra or in in Rapture or in gazed it literally means that that not only is something I desire but I'm I become like Eve I look at it long enough till I begin to desire it this is why Jesus preached and he said he says if you look upon a woman he didn't say notice whether she's pretty or not that that wasn't that wasn't n falling into temptation he says if you look upon a woman and what desire to have her and he wasn't just talking about holding her hands going to Walmart come on somebody he was saying if you look and then you begin to go through the whole processes of what you would do with her in your mind he says you've already done it this is what this word entice means every man is when he is tempted is drawn away of something he or she wants and and begins to look at it long enough to see it uh hear her uh yielding to it verse 15 then when lust has conceived it brings forth sounds like a human body in pregnancy and birth doesn't it when lust has what conceived it what brings forth watch this and sin when it is finished brings forth death how many y'all know the seed I use this illustration because you just you just can't improve on it the seed of a watermelon little black slimy looking thing you can't see the this big come on couple of pound green thing with white stripes and red fruit that tastes sweet and all you see is this little apple seed it doesn't look like the fruit somebody say Amen to that it doesn't look like the fruit that's telling us that when the enemy comes are y'all with me when this spirit that we just looked at in Revelations chapter 17 and 18 when she it introduces to you and I to the seed it doesn't look like the fruit that's going to come well that then then you get the argument of the mind that says ain't nothing wrong with this you it's just a seed yes it's a seed you don't see the fruit that's coming are y'all with me consecration requires that you have the ability to look Beyond sinful seed I wouldn't do anything I was just riding in the car I wasn't really I smoked but I didn't inhale I didn't do this I kiss but you know we kept our tongues in our I I'm I'm just I'm just I'm it's not really it's it's not like that I don't really I don't it don't affect me the way that it affects some people somebody say la la and then you sitting there like Eve she was innocent but not wise and everybody knows what happens when the reason we have laws in in at least in this country in some other countries they have something called uh what what you can engage a child with relationally cuz they figure their mind is not developed to discern the words and the manipulation with which an adult mind would impose their will come on somebody and desires upon that child because the child is born with a place of mental innocence whether they had they're born with the Mama's attitude or the Daddy's you know inclinations not or gifts no none none of that matters they they're not born with discernment and so we have laws about what seeds can be introduced and when you have a manipulator or an abuser what do they do they introduce the seed little girl comes home but I love him he makes me feel good I don't want to fill in all the blanks today because all of us have experienced that and so he introduces the enemy she she in order for her to get her full-blown Soldier she introduced sin in seed form here just test it here's a free trial come on man just hit it and when you find someone who's been introduced to this listen to me very carefully I'm going to go on to this here's one you cannot control the appetite that arises after an evil seed has been planted in you even abused children understand what sexual pleasure is are y'all with me once you wake the body up it's hard to put it back to sleep in innocence once you wake the the brain up to running on a higher chemical level than it was originally designed to do it's hard to put it back to sleep let's just be sober now my brain's like wait wait wait wait it's like after you've ever driven a supercharged V6 it's hard to go back to a 1.6 4 cylinder they they repenting on the front row so true so true once you have experienced something and enjoyed it whether it was listen to me whether it was right or wrong something inside of you now has an appetite the fruit is forming you should see the looks on your faces see here's the struggle I'm going to stand right here just for a moment I'm going to go on God wants me to live a boring life no no he has a different set of exciting fruit in order to say this is exciting and this is boring you also have to make a comparison are y'all with me this morning if I say this is boring and that is exciting I'm making a comparison most most of us have never experienced the depths of God even to make a comparison you ever have Jesus point a sword with flames on it right at your forehead you are extremely alert I assure you let me go on this is no condemnation right now but sometimes we don't understand why we want the things that we no longer want there's a seed that was planted there's a fruit and now there's an appetite and the the plan of the enemy is and when verse 15 and and it brings forth sin and sin then it begins another cycle which is deeper and more violent than the first when it is finished it brings forth death death in its purest definition is not physical death it is inactivity toward God oh I feel like preaching the Dead the the the dead bodies of people we traditionally put them in a casket and the Bible says we were dead in sin so I want to ask you what was your casket before you got saved because there was a spiritual holding environment that held you in your inactivity toward God come on Lazarus we don't want to just come on y'all I don't want to just come alive in God and I'm still held by the castle let me out of the thing that was holding me when I was inactive toward God so there has to be a transformation not just I got Jesus in my heart no that that whole environment around me now needs to be conducive to my living activity the enemy makes an environment that holds dead people whether they're smiling or crying it makes no difference to him as long as they don't have any activity with God verse 16 it says what do not he my brethren don't make a mistake now watch this he begins to pull on what we will visit in the later chapter he begins to make his first introduction speaking of the wisdom or the seed that comes from Heaven this is this NE the next one says it's pure and peaceful but he makes a reflection to it he says he says God's not giving out seed to bring you back into spiritual bondage he says verse 17 are y'all with me come on every good gift and every what perfect gift it's not of this world system it's not under that Spirit it is where come on y'all it is from above where and it comes down from the Father of Lights with whom is no no variableness neither shadow of turning every time when you really get a breakthrough in God it came from God woo I feel like preaching there's a place where philosophy that is rooted in secular humanism or human thought can't help you I don't care how many camps you go to I don't care how many Retreats you go to I I I don't care come on how how many focus groups you go to if the wisdom is not above that spirit's head you will not get free you will transfer sin you don't do that but you do a whole lot of this this one's legal that one's not so I'm I'm I'm free I I don't do that anymore no no but but but but I'm I'm over here and I just I just I'm just God will break that nervous activity right out of your spirit oh I feel like preaching we we going to lose a few the longer God commissions me to help leaders I find leaders that used to be busy bodies in the world don't get mad at me I'm just preaching they could never sit still in the world and they come into the church so they can never what sit still but then the Bible has a place where it says what be what be be what be still and know that I'm what God it says the Lord is in his holy Temple let all the Earth keep what silence before him so oh wait a minute so now there's a place in God that I can only be in agreement with God if I can sit still and be silent listen to me God loves activity God Paul was active before he got saved when he was Saul and he was active after after he got saved I'm not I'm not saying God can't use your personality and your intellect God will use everything about you but now he uses it at his command I just can't rest I just can't this I just can't I just got to bit and then then we we we we come out of sin but we we we wrap it up now in Ministry and religious activity listen to me you're still not performing according to how you were designed and then we get to the place where we burn out oh I feel like preaching Lord of Mercy I I wish I had my cuffing something God created the Earth heavens and the Earth in six days and on the seventh day he what he rested not because he was tired he rested because he turned turned around and put himself in a posture to enjoy what he had created and he observed what he commanded he created because the Bible says and he looked at it and he said it was what good so he oh I feel like preaching he turned around and looked at what he made and said it fits into me and I fit into it you know what depression is is when you work work work so hard and you turn around and look what you have and you say I did all that for what for nothing when unclean Spirit goes out of a man he seeketh see I don't know unclean Spirit goes out of a man the script Jesus preached he said the spirit seeketh what rest and he finds none he finds no environment with which he fits in that he can abide in that he can do his work from a planning stage in God's rest wasn't just because he was tired God Rest was he looked at what he made and he says I can abide in it I have made my come on my garden and my people and that creation and they enjoy at that and they enjoy me and I will be God oh Emmanuel I will abide the spirit leaves the human spirit and he goes and he says you know what there's nothing I can find rest I I can find nothing to rest or fit into so the Bible says he goes and finds seven more Spirits what more wicked than himself and he takes these other Wicked Spirits back to the person he came out of are y'all with me and they bring the person into a deeper bondage of spiritual configurate and that spirit says I can now rest in this more wicked environment and this person that I'm riding cannot break free from my power because I have totally overcome them now by a group corporate Force oh the spirit Revelation 17 and 18 she knows how to sent more than one after you she knows it says it says of the nations of the Earth the Nations the tongues the people it it knows how to get Nations to Bow Down Under multiple demonic oppressions and when the people are walking in confusion and Hedonism and and and and prideful of their own lust and and and and and all of this other stuff and just just literally vomiting on their own table of life that spirit says what I can rest and rule over this now you have to ask yourself how how how much of this world I just want to let stay in my life how how well I I just I just I just came to Jesus so I could G quit quit quit doing that I I didn't come to Jesus to quit doing everything baby whom the sun sets free is free indeed Jesus is looking to make you so free that there's nothing the enemy can fit back into your life and be comfortable with we talked about altars and dreamers and seers and an altar is literally this a configurate that holds a spirit the Demonic altars that are among the Nations is always something that looks very nasty and very odd even if they cover it with gold it gives you the creeps because a spirit inspired the artisians to make that which that form with which they that Spirit could visit and inhabit because it looked just like them and God by his Spirit wants to build in you and make your body the what Temple of the Holy Ghost come on somebody so he brings us into Purity so that our body fits the Heavenly configur to house God God is fighting for your Purity you're not just trying to get your rent paid he's fighting for your Purity he said pastor I I I've been going to church for 12 years years my S my my children are still in trouble because the enemy's throwing seeds at him at them well I've been speaking in tongues for seven years and I still have these thoughts cuz the enemy is throwing seeds at you well I just don't feel right because the enem is throwing seeds at you well I I I don't know you know I still want to do this and that cuz the enemy is throwing seeds at you are you you hanging around that which is pure and Peaceable more than you're hanging around that which leads unto sin unto death now what are y'all with me now you're into a fellowship mode God's not trying to take away your your 24 hours all Pastor want us to do is pray no no no no I want you to close the gaps close the gaps where the enemy comes and he Pastor don't want us watch nothing want us to do can't we can't listen to nothing we can't go nowhere we can't we can't do nothing we can't just can't everybody want to have some fun God put us on the earth to have fun he did sure he did but if you're going and getting seed and the seed is growing bringing sin and you're wondering why death won't leave you alone can I tell you something there's some things speaking in tongues won't shake off you you can be speaking in tongues smoking a joint y'all should see who's vibrating and twitching in the house now when Adam and Eve Sinn they ran where from God from God listen to me your tongues are just energizing your spirit and when your spirit is energizing then you you're in the proximity or you have the frequency with which you can hear from God and receive pure seed but you're still going to have to deal with the dark seed and God's going to give you seed with which to deal with the dark seed that's the only thing you're going to get from that tongue that tongue's not going to fight that other seed the Bible tells us to do what to imaginations cast them the tongues is not going to cast it down for you still nervous still afraid still mad still cranky still depressed it's not going to cast it down you you see we're religiously trying to make things of God do what it was not designed to do so what so what should I do you should pray in the spirit and then do what he says and that will overcome are y'all with me the seeds of the enemy but you can't blank out and just pray in tongues baby it don't work that way somebody say engage and I'm not talking about getting married I'm talking about getting connected with the Lord let me just give you a little bit is this good to anybody I played with you a little bit because we had to get a little Sweetness in there is every good gift every perfect gift is from above we have access into this grace wherein We Stand Romans chapter 5 and cometh down from the father of Life Our Father how much more shall he give the Holy Ghost to his children who ask him with whom is no variableness neither any shadow of turning Paul writes in another place he has not given us the spirit of bondage again to fear you don't have to be afraid of the Holy Ghost there is a fear of the Holy Spirit I don't want to be crazy now I do I want as much Jesus mind as possible Verse 18 let's read loud and strong of his own will he begat us with the seed of what the word of truth that the fruit of what that we should be a kind the first fruits of his creatures do you see that Satan has a seed and it is the influence through that spirit and it brings forth fruit which means you he now has a servant and God uses the seed are y'all with me Mark 4 1 Peter uh 1:26 God uses the seed of the word of God to bring forth fruit of righteousness in us so that he has servants and children it is what I bring in is what I will behold I won't take you much further but one thing we say familiar around this house your heart is like the ground outside when you put a fence post in the ground and it rots it's not rotting that's a myth the seat the ground is trying to grow that fence post you put a metal pole down in the ground and it rusts it's not rting rusting the ground is trying to grow that metal fence post cuz every seed that comes in it falls into the ground and what dies and then the kernel of the seed produces fruit the ground is trying to grow anything your heart will grow anything anything you put in it you put cussing in it oh we're going to put cussing back out you put you put depression in it it's going to do that you put lust in it you put pornography in it you you put whatever you want to put under that world spirit it's going to grow listen to me you can put psychology in it that has nothing to do with pornography nothing to do with addiction nothing to do with stealing directly from people you can just put philosophy in it and and put education in it to a point that it feels like it doesn't need God at all it will grow whatever that enemy wants to grow to keep us from God everybody don't smoke and drink and cuss and go with girls that do you know we can't stop here it's time to stop stop right here in a moment but I need to tie up the bottom of the bag so we can walk out verse number 19 and 20 maybe we can stop here verse 19 y'all ready read it with me wherefore what is he saying when he says wherefore he saiding he's saiding take all that and let's put it in action come on y'all wherefore come on my beloved Brethren so he's talking to save folks let come on let every man be swift to hear slow to speak slow to wrath verse 20 for the wrath of man works not the righteousness of God let me explain this and we'll stop here for today my brethren verse 19 back on the screen let every man be swift to hear and slow to speak and slow to wrap what is he saying he's saying that you and I have been developed in a mindset that if I just run with what I think and I run with what I feel and I run with my perception I could be loud and then what loud and wrong so I need to be what slow Swift to hear slow to speak and slow to ra or to react what's he saying to them he says you're going to have to relearn everything because I had some desires that were obviously sinful and I had some other desires that were still leading me to death because they were outside of the Kingdom I need to relearn the perception of life and you you you boy boy you you you 18 years old you you you ain't you ain't got you know girl friend yet I but when I was your age I was I Grand we we came take my granddad house no more praise the Lord I tell you what my uncle did he would he took me oh we don't want to do that granddaddy they don't think they sinning they think they helping girl you by yourself I tell you how I used to get a man oh can't can't can't take him over Auntie house no more come on perception of Life Swift to hear that l means I'm looking for everything that I can hear verse 17 that is good and perfect from above I need to be quick I need to get every word from God as quick as power possible and I need to be slow to give my opinion and I need to be slow to wrath verse verse 20 we will'll be because me in myself I've met God but my mind is not renewed I'm working not the righteousness of God I have to become pure before I can even be in agreement with Jesus so we're going to stay into this message of Purity for a bit and a while and I'm going to show you throughout these chapters he gives examples again of of of of the sexual side of it he gives examples again of the monetary the economic side of he he gives examples again of how you let God into those areas of your life and what happens when you do or do not and he gives examples again of how the enemy comes in to to reestablish his influence are y'all all right this morning give Jesus a good hand praise will you [Applause] please Hallelujah they were bold they were Valiant without air conditioner they came to church I'll give you a hint it's warmer up here than it is down there but was it

forward and so our our music is not the same our our our you know our sermons are not the same I'm a little long I'm trying to cut it down I well they make a movie two and three hours at least please give me 45 minutes right in the School of prayer I'm I'm announcing we're working on it I haven't released it uh we've been teaching on prayer last couple of Wednesdays the Lord is going to be released in this thing he he we we're making intercession in this thing but every Wednesday once we kick it off we're going to be taking you through at least four or five phases of maturity in prayer because oh I'll give you this one nugget and then somebody got to come get this microphone this came out last Wednesday I knew it before but I didn't tend on teaching it but it came out Jesus taught in the temple on the steps and he taught in the synagogues did you know that the synagogue was not built I mean the T the temple was not built for teaching Moses taught the what did not say Ten Commandments it was three it was 300 and something of them let me tell you you about 200 you 253 short 353 short Moses came down the mountain and he taught the people but when he went into the Tabernacle there was no chairs there was room for nobody else somebody say Amen to that when he went in and the showbread and and the Candlestick and and the table of incense and the holies of holies was behind the curtain there were no microphones there were no seats there was nothing and that was the temple the Tabernacle was God's are y'all with me and he would hear from God and come out of that and then teach to people so I want to ask you today if see the model of church inside of me is changing come on have we set up churches to be synagogues come on somebody or have we set them up to be temples but he said my house shall be called a what House of Prayer church is supposed to be more about prayer than anything [Music] else why y'all pray so long why y'all worship so long because we're in the temple I'm not in the synagogue I'm this is not bible study this is let's go meet with God when you start to get that con concept we'll start coming to church to be in God's [Music] Temple and we'll use other moments for deep deep deep teaching that thing will change your mind Jesus taught on the steps and he taught in the synagogue but in the temple there's nothing but [Music] worship we've been training the people the wrong way anyway so when we launch that come on hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah praise the Lord I am better I can [Music] stop oh God is good I'm happy to
