Now here's what I want you to do. Open your mouth and worship for a moment. Just love on him. He wants to hear the corporate man tonight. Come on, worship him. It's real easy to praise because you ain't got to know him to praise. Let everything that have breath praise. But you got to know him to worship. You got to worship him in spirit and in truth. Yeah, I can tell where you are, how you react to worship. My praise breaks are not impressive because the right sinner can praise, but it takes a real relationship to find worth.

And find truth and find value. Come on, worshiper! I believe God's gonna do something in here tonight. We give you the glory, God. We love you, we love you, we love you. We're in love with you, we're in love with you. We're in love with you. We're in love with you. We're in love with you, Jesus. I'm in love with you, God. I tell my son, you've been better to me than I could ever be to myself. That's why I love you, Jesus. Oh God, you saved and delivered me. You gave me peace in my life. You prospered my life, God. I'm, I'm in love with you, God. You can never be replaced, Jesus. I love you, I love you, I love you, Lord. Come on, worshiper. Come on, Zion is calling us higher. There's something God wants to do through the man of God in this room tonight, but I need you to tap in so your heart will be ready to receive. We love you, God. We love you.

We love you. We love you.

I love you Jesus!

I love you Jesus! Ora mama diosa e— I'm in love with You God!

I'm in love with You! I'm in love with You!

I'm in love with You!

To him that sits on the throne and unto the Lamb be blessings and glory and honor and power forever. The angels and the elders bow and they cry, holy, holy, holy.

And we the redeemed, we worship him now. And we cry, holy is the Lord! Holy is the Lord!

Holy is the Lord!

Deep calling to deep.

The Spirit and the Bride is calling us high. It's about the heavens are open before us. What you do with it? What will you do with it? What will you do with it? What will you do with an open heaven? Oh, I choose to worship. I choose to exalt your name. Worthy is your name, Jesus. Woo! Worthy is your name. Worthy is your name. Worthy is your name. Worthy is your name.

There's no other name given among men. Minister Tanya was singing, and blessed be the name of the Lord, knowing the name given among men whereby we can be saved.

That's his saving name.

Throughout my day, I call on his name.

I didn't stop when I got saved 40 years ago. I've been calling his name every day since. Cuz soteria and salvation is a constant daily rescue. Paul said, I'm being saved daily.

Shout, tamansai!

Does anybody rejoice in that name? Oh, shout, worthy is your name, Jesus! You deserve the praise, God. Worthy is your name!

Y'all sing it. Worthy is your name, Jesus.

Jesus, sing to him.

You deserve the praise.

You deserve the praise. Worthy is your name. Come on, everybody. Worthy is your name. Jesus, you deserve the praise. You deserve the praise. Worthy is your name. Worthy is your name.

Come on, sing worthy is. Worthy is your name, Jesus.

Jesus, you deserve the praise. You deserve the praise.

Worthy Worthy is your name.

Worthy is your name.

Worthy is your name, Jesus.

You deserve the praise.

You deserve the praise. Worthy is— worthy is your name.

Come on, every hand lifted if you can, just right here. And I want you just for a few moments, for the next 2 minutes, if you, if you can sustain it for 2 minutes, I want you to begin to give him the fruit of your lips. Come on, open your mouth right now and speak directly to him. Don't worry about who's next to you, who you rode with. There's something you need from him tonight. Come on, praise his great name. His name alone is worthy. Ah yeah, his name alone is worthy. There's power in his name, there's victory in his name. Everything we need is in that name.

Come on, worship that great name.

Jesus, we glorify. Jesus, we magnify.

Come on, the fruit of your lips. Come on, open your mouth. We give give you glory. You're worthy to be praised, God. You're worthy to be worshiped. We worship the name of Jesus. Ah, we— yes, God, we worship your name.

You deserve the praise.

Worthy is your name. Worthy is your name, Jesus.

You deserve the praise, God.

You deserve the praise.

Worthy is your name, worthy is your name, Jesus.

Jesus, you deserve the praise. Worthy is your name.

We glorify him, we magnify him.

Them that worship him, worship in spirit and in truth. Whenever worship is happening, you have to find a place of truth, and you glorify him based on that truth. And out of your heart, that's when worship becomes pure, because there's an identity connected to your song, to your hands lifting, to your dancing, to your shouting with your mouth. There ought to be a story, a testimony that identifies the reality of what God has done. Father, we bless you. Thank you for your presence in this place.

Worthy is your name. Worthy. Next time.

Your name, Jesus, Jesus, you deserve the praise, you deserve the praise.

Worthy is, worthy is your name.

Come on, love on him. Yeah, clap your hands and love on him. He's worthy of that.

He's worthy of that.

Listen, right in this atmosphere, I want to put the man of God up. So if you got two legs and you ain't standing, please stand as we honor the man of God, his servant, my brother that's here tonight to minister to us. I've known Apostle Hill for a long time. One of the unique moments of history that he and I shared was in 2004, 2005. 2005, we both were affirmed to apostolic ministry by our spiritual father, and he says on the day when we was talking, that I say a lot certain things other people have already exhausted. And we've exhausted some folks just doing what we've already done. And I'm really grateful for him, his ministry. He's a real apostle. And y'all know, you know, my tolerance for inauthentic apostles. He is real low. He's a real apostle, and I'm grateful.

Yeah, that's a good place to go.

And he prophesied to me, I think we weren't married yet, so it might have been 2015. And I want you to know I carry that word. The last time you prayed preached.

I think that's been that long. Maybe I was celebrating my birthday and he got up to give words.

That's what it was, because Apostle Cunningham preached. And he, he said to me, he said he'd been praying that God would give me a people that align with who I am. And that has always been my prayer. So it was so confirming in my spirit, even though we're, we're light tonight. But Apostle, since you spoke that word, I haven't planted 4 churches. I planted another church in Mississippi.

We don't plan to kill someone.

And God has surrounded me with great people. I just want to announce before this people, you spoke in and it happened.

So I thank God.

So I want you to say this with me as we receive the man of God. Say, Lord, send your word.

Come on, say it again. Say, Lord, send your word. Come on, one more time. Lord, send your word.

And before I bring him, I want to thank God. Y'all give the woman of God a hand, his wife. It takes a grace to be married to any man of God. And so I'm grateful for the grace on her life. Hallelujah. So y'all clap your hands and let's receive the man of God tonight, Apostle Tony Hill.

Give God praise as he come.

Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Stay right there for a minute. I'mma do this quick because the presence is set. Amen. Giving honor to my brother, Dr. Apostle Michael Woods, to Lady Woods. Amen. Thank God for you. Amen. Amen. Giving honor to all of you in the right places. Amen. To my lovely wife. Amen. She drove like a mad lady coming from Millisville to support me. I thank God for— amen. Until I minister music. Amen. God bless you. Amen. Truly, amen. The atmosphere is set, so I'm not going to agitate it. Amen. This is atmosphere of importation. Amen. So it's already open. Amen. There's no need to redo what is already done. Amen. So We're going to dive into the word of God tonight. Amen. Amen. Tonight, if we would— amen. We are in a soul-saving season.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

It's not about anything else except souls. If you—

if really and truly, if that's not your passion, that's not your heart, you'd have missed it.

Amen.

Because that's the season where God is.

Amen. He's not concerned about your gifting, your monies, and all of this. All of that. He's concerned about your ability to be a witness. Amen. Tonight, if I had to speak from a subject, which I will—

amen—

I'm going to go with compel them to come. Compel them to come. So many times we've been taught, ask them to come.

Come on, come on. Y'all already seen it.

Beg them to come. Come on, Apostle.

We've even been taught invite them to come. Come on.

But have we been taught compel them to come? Amen.

So many times, because we have found ourselves in a place to where we don't know what we have, We don't have— we don't know what we have. So how can you introduce someone to something you don't know about? When Jesus was talking to the woman at the— at the well, he said, you worship what you don't know. Come on, sir. But we worship what we know. And oftentimes we're caught up in worship of the unknown.

Amen.

My Lord.

When God was ministering to me, because it was easy for me to say yes, because it's in the vein of everything that God is speaking in this season. You cannot keep on overlooking the condition of the church. No, no, no, no, no. You cannot put all of the weight on the pastor, the apostle, to bring people into the ministry.

If you have seats available, that means that there's still work available.

Come on.

All right, all right. If you got seats available, there's a job available, and you got to make up in your mind that you are ready to do it.

Amen. When we deal with the word compel, it's a very interesting word because it don't mean invite.

It means to restrain them. Come on, sir. Come on, sir. It means to restrain them to come through threat. Evidence to restrain them, not to say, will you come, but to restrain them in a way to where they have to come. It says that compel them to come means that you do it through finding their necessity.

Oh, come on, come on, come on, sir.

See, see, if you don't have the proper thing to compel them with, the proper thing to find as a necessity to where they— why they need God, why would they come?

Come on, Cardi B got money, man. T.I. got money. Yeah, come on, Lil Woody got money. Little Woody got money. So, so how in the world is money going to be your catch?

Well, porn stars got money.

Okay, how is money going to be your catch? Come on, sir. How is fame going to be your catch? We got people on TikTok that have not done anything but posts, and they're more famous than most of the stars now. How is that going to be your catch? In order for you to compel them, you must be able to restrain them because you find their necessity. When God was talking to Abraham, he found Abraham's necessity. He said, your wife can't do something that she want to do, which is have a child. So he said, I'm going compel you to leave where you at based upon your necessity to get what you need.

Amen. You just got to find the necessity. Yes, sir. Necessity. In order for you to compel somebody to come, to restrain them, to threaten them, to bait them, but all to pull— watch this—

not to invite the them, but to pull on what they need that's on the inside of them. Yes, sir. See, you got to do the opposite of what the devil— the devil is able to lead you into sin because he draws you of your own lust. He compels you by what you want. The devil don't invite you to sin. Hey, we want to sin. He compels you to sin because he finds your desire. Yes, he does. When God began to talk, he said, son, we have to compel them to come.

Come where?

Ask your neighbor, say, come where?

Most people, most people are preaching salvation before they preach kingdom. Salvation is a state of being.

Kingdom is a citizenship that that we belong to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can give me, like, like the man of God said, you can give me sozo, which means to be saved, which is meaning that you snatch me out of danger. You can even give me salvation, which is security and continuation of safety. But what am I going to belong to? Come on, I'm safe over here, I'm safe over there, I belong over here. I belong over there. Jesus came down and he did not preach salvation. Y'all can play with it all you want. He preached kingdom. He didn't come down off the mountain and say, repent, repent, for salvation is at hand.

He said, repent, repent, for the kingdom is at hand.

Yes, sir.

He said, well, well, if you don't know what you are inviting people to?

Come on, sir.

How can you tell them to come? What you gonna tell them?

Come to church? Come to see a man that told me about Jesus? Are you able to introduce them to a new citizenship that will make them feel alive?

Can you introduce them to the kingdom? The kingdom means the royal power, the royal presence in the royal room. Meaning that when Jesus came down and he said, 'Repent, repent,' he was saying, 'Turn, turn,' because there's a new authority that can govern your life. Why was that so instrumental?

Because they was waiting on the government.

They was waiting to be delivered from one oppressor to freedom. So when Jesus came down, he didn't talk about salvation.

He talked about what was already in them. He pulled on their necessity.

Come on, sir.

He said, I'm going to talk to you about what you really want. Yes, sir.

All right.

The worst conversation you can have with a sinner is about something that they don't even want.

Come on, sir. Come on. Talk, sir. That's good stuff.

Come on, man, you talking to a whore monger about stop whoring?

That's a conversation I don't even want to have with you.

You talking to me about drinking, stop drinking. I want to drink.

Right. Come on, sir.

So while we having this erroneous conversation that don't even include anything of my necessity.

Come on now. Come on. Why you talking to me about something I don't even want?

Yeah, yeah, man, I'm going to get you saved. You going, you going to stop this and you going to stop that. The devil is a liar.

I ain't going to stop nothing but listening to you. Come on, that's, that's what I'm going to stop. Jesus came down. Yes, Lord. And he talked to them about the kingdom. But Jesus didn't just start talking before he was anointed and proven.

Come on, come on. That's right, that's right. All right, see, oftentimes we publicize prematurely.

We talk before our time. You, you can talk to me about it because I did it.

I publicized prematurely prematurely.

I started preaching before I was delivered. I started moving before he moved me out of harm's way. So I publicized prematurely because I had been to the mountain, but I failed miserably.

You can be on the mountain 40 years.

See, you don't realize it. There's no time of the test. You stay in the test test until you really and truly pass the test. So some people been on the mountain 20 years, 30 years, 40 years, still going through the testing before they can be released.

Come on now.

The difference between you being tried as an evildoer and tested as a product is that Jesus was led by the Spirit to his test, not led by his lust to his fall. Oh no, no, no, we ain't gonna play with it.

You, you, you, you be in your car trying not to go over there to get it, and you be talking about God testing me. The devil is a lie. God is not testing you. You're being drawn by your own lust. You be talking about some, God told me to go over there last night because he wanted to see what I would do. God don't have to see nothing. He's all-knowing. Why do he need to see what you would do when he know your end before your beginning?

Yes, sir. Yes, sir. You lying to yourself. You're not being tested. You're finding yourself being drawn away by your own levels. Jesus was anointed. The dove came down on him.

I love that this morning, that dove. Boy, whoosh! Shatta!

But the dove came down and, and there was a profession over his life. Most of us is moving without God professing anything over our life.

I always tell my members and my leaders how in order for you to be sent, that means that you had to be with him. I can't send you nowhere if you're not with me. And oftentimes we go without ever being—

when he sent the apostles, they was with him.

Yeah, yeah, my God, my God.

How you going to be sent and you ain't never been with him? Come on, talk to me. God sent me, but he never received you.

Ah, Lord, he was anointed.

He was led up by the Spirit. Yes, sir. Anytime God leads you into something It's not an expectation of you failing. It's a revealing of the glory that's inside of you.

He ain't sending you nowhere for you to mess up. He's sending you somewhere to be revealed. Your test was never meant to take you out. It was meant to call you out. And so many times we think that test means mess up.

No, no, no, no, no, I'm sorry. No, no, no, when they—

when they make these jeans right here, they put it through a quality test, and that means that they put it through the washer 1,000 times, 2,000 times, and then they pull on them and check to see if it can consist— yeah, it's consistent with the quality of the inventor. They tested to make sure that it make it through.

Yes, sir.

They don't, they don't, they don't test it because they wanted to tell. Come on, sir. They test it because before I put it in the public, I need to know that it's quality. Jesus was 100% man and 100% God. All right, so most people try to eliminate the fact that Jesus was a man, and if you eliminate the fact that he was a man, then you eliminate our power, because it is the Holy Ghost power, the same quickening power that would not allow him to sin.

It is the same quicken and empower, that's going to end our sin. And if you say that he could not sin, then that means that the game is rigged and we already undone.

Come on, come on, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up.

So Jesus went up on the mount and somebody say Matthew. Matthew. Matthew chapter 4. So he went up on the mountain and he was tempted by the devil. Somebody say, by the devil.

By the devil. Not by the saints.

See, one of the things that in every man of God who fall— let me, let me, let me throw this out. In every man of God that fall, as well as every church member that fail, come on, it is always blamed on the man of God, right? If he fall into sin with a woman right now, he the old dirty man of God.

But ain't nobody gonna say he was tempted by a sinner.

But, but, but if Deacon Jody sits next to Susan, Susie, Sister Susie, and he offer her a little change to do something strange, then y'all gonna say Deacon was tempted by Susan, but It was Susie that approached.

See, we don't want to talk about when you tell anybody to say, come on, sir, my Lord, be transparent.

It should not be so, but the fact of the matter, he, the man of God, is standing here, and when everybody walk through the door, he's the first thing that they see.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

All the men sitting there, they looking at my wife.

That's the first thing she see.

Come on, come on. Well, here we go.

We'll talk about the devil in the man of God, but what if the devil in the sister? Come on. What about the devil in the pews? We like to talk about the devil in the pulpit, but what about the devil in the pews?

What about when you was the one initiated cussing in your mouth? How about he was trying to hold back until you kept cussing, and then soon as the man of God let one loose, oh, he He the devil.

Let me get on back on the mountain.

If I come down in the church, y'all going to leave. But if I stay on the mountain talking about Jesus and the devil—

but if I talk about the devil in the church, the Bible say that he was tempted of the devil.

Somebody say when. After he was hungry.

Oh yeah, yeah, right.

Come on, somebody say the enemy will always attack when there is lack.

Bible people call it an open door.

Because the enemy will attack when there is lack. Yes, sir.

He will wait until you are not doing what you're supposed to do for your spouse, and then he attack. He will wait till when you are not doing what you supposed to do in your church, and then he will attack. The enemy waits on lack to attack. Come on, sir.

Come on.

What's the use of him tempting a full belly? What's the use of the enemy tempting a full belly? It says in Matthew chapter 4, then Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil, not the saint. And when he had fasted 40 days and 40 nights, and he was afterward and hungered. They didn't want you to think that he had some supernatural sustaining power. He was hungry. Amen. Just like when he rolled up on that fig tree, he was hungry. That mean that Jesus was looking for something. And when he— and when the tempter came, He said, if there be the Son of God—

y'all don't want to hear me—

he never tested his hunger. He tested who he was.

The enemy ain't testing your car. He ain't testing your, your praise. He's testing your identity. He ain't worried about— come on now— he did not test Jesus' appetite. He tested his identity. He said, if you be the Son of God— I didn't come to check on your hunger pains, I came to check on your identity. Is you true to who you are more than what you want?

you got to ask yourself, am I true to who I am over what I want? See, see, there were times I was a slave to my appetite, but that's because I didn't value my identity. I cared more about feeling good than being good. Come on, sir. Come on, sir.

And because good was her identity and feeling good was what my appetite— I copped out to feeling good and I gave up my identity.

Come on, keep it real, sir.

See, when you say you a woman of God, sleeping with him is not an option.

Ah, come on, come on.

It don't match my identity. Come on, sir. Come on.

It matched my appetite of my flesh, but it don't, it don't match my identity in the kingdom. When you say you're a man of God, there are some things that is disallowed just based upon identity. I'm the son of a king. I cannot operate like a peasant. I'm a son of a king. I cannot be bound with her or him or them. I'm a son of the King.

Yes, sir. Come on. Yes, sir.

They don't have to tell you to stop hanging around them. Your identity exclude them. Come on, sir.

Come on. Right. See, I'mma go.

When, when, when, when you fill out that application, And they say, list your degrees. Come on, huh? They say, do you got a bachelor? You got a master? You got a doctor? Do you have this?

And do you have that?

That's their way of excluding me.

Come on, if you can't get past the criteria of who— somebody say who—

of who I'm looking for, then I don't have to worry about interviewing you and dismissing you because the qualifications dismiss you.

Listen to the single ladies. The qualifications and mandate of a man being able to cover you in the spirit eliminates.

Come on.

Well, I'm just going to go on a date and see.

No, you don't have to go on a date. His qualifications, the qualifications eliminate him. Well, J, you know, you got to give everybody—

No, you don't have to give everybody a chance. Come on, when you fill out that application and you can't line up with the qualification, you don't get no change.

I'm just going to call them in and, and waste my time.

I'm a CEO of a $1 billion company. If you don't, if you don't qualify, you can't get through the door.

Jesus was up on that mountain. I'm, I'm going to get on down through here. Jesus is up on the mountain. What I love about the temptation of Jesus, he did not tempt the King of Kings like peasant.

He didn't offer him no booze. He didn't offer him no women. He didn't offer him no job with— in— over here with, with, with the Roman Empire. No, no, no, no, no, no.

His temptation was based upon who he is.

Anytime you start be tempted with things that are beneath you, that means that you done came down. See, anytime you find yourself tempted with something that is less than who you know yourself to be, you somewhere you supposed to be.

You can't tempt me with no street walker.

Come on, come on.

Let me tell you, ain't nothing I can do but say Okay, see, all right, now back to business. Because who I am eliminates me ever, ever toxic.

Ask your neighbor, what, what did you fall with? That's good, that's good, sir.

You claim you a baller and they tempted you with Bud Light and What about the Imperial?

What about Cristal?

You can't even tempt me with a Bud Light.

No, listen, and I ain't going to talk about that number one time.

Before I got saved, that was before all this allowed weed came out. Before I got saved, they had just introduced dro. And dro was $125 for a 0.5. And we ain't never smoke, you don't know nothing about that, but it was less than what goes into a cigarette. $125 a block.

And I smoke Selma Day. You couldn't tempt me with regular weed. If you came to my place of business, say, bro, let's smoke, and you pull out some regular, I'm like, man, that gonna make my hair hurt, man. I don't care if you smoke that. What am I saying? When you in the kingdom, you acquire a new taste.

Come on, sir!

And that means when the devil come with mass. You're not tempted. I'm not tempted to talk about that because I have kingdom ears and a kingdom tongue. I use my tongue to create, I use my ears to relate. I ain't got time.

You want to know what she said?

I'm not tempted to know what she said. Come on, how you still tempted with gossip? That's what I said. I use my tongue to create.

I use my ears to relate.

Why am I tempted with gossip?

Come on, come on. Jesus was on the mountain. The devil did not tempt him foolishly. He tempted him king style. He said, look, man, I give you the whole kingdom Kingdom if you worship me. He said, look, I'll give you all the cities if you worship me. I'll give you rulership if you worship me.

One of the biggest tricks of the enemy is to make you give up God and give up what you already got for something that he can't even provide.

All right, I gotta go. In order to compel them to come Number 1, you got to know what you are inviting them to, uh, compelling them to. Number 2, you have to have value that you can explain concerning the kingdom.

Come on, come on.

Yeah, we're gonna go. Come on, let's find the value. Let's find the value. The Bible talks about the value of the kingdom. Y'all ready? The value of the kingdom. Let's go to Matthew 13 and 44. 13 and 44. Matthew 13. Let's talk about value.

44. And again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hid in the field.

Tell your somebody, say, don't leave your valuables out. Don't leave your valuables out. I tell my wife, don't leave your valuables out, baby.

I don't want nobody trying to steal my valuables.

Put them up, you know, put your valuables up. You got to tell your wife, put her valuables up.

All right, the kingdom It's like a treasure hid in a field, the which when a man have found— yeah, what he do? He hide it again. See, the one thing about the kingdom is when he found something that was valuable that was hid, instead of him leaving it out in the open so somebody else can bid on it, he hide it again.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

See, when you understand what God is doing with your spirit inside of your flesh, he hid a treasure down in the dirt. The Bible say that you was created out of what? The dust of the field. And then he turned around and put a treasure inside side of the dirt again. My God, Apostle was talking about those diamonds and digging through the trash in order to find the treasure, digging in the dirt in order to find the diamond. That means that you've got to go through something that is seemingly unpleasant to get something that is really powerful.

You can't think that you're going to get it for free and without any investment.

I'm going to show you. He said that he hid it again, and all that he had, he sold it.

Let me, let me, let me read again.

The kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man seeking goodly pearls, who find— he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold So much stuff.

Somebody say, that's the value.

That's the value. All that. Come on, sir. That's the value. What's the value?

All that.

In order to find your life?

Some of your life? No. All.

Come on, sir. Come on.

The value is all of it. All of it.

See, the problem that we have is we want God, but we only want to give up some stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

This right here make a fool out of me, so I'm gonna give up drinking because every time I drink it make a fool out of me. I'm gonna give up smoking because people smell it on me, but I'm gonna keep this right here hidden. But God said it costs all of it.

It's in red.

How much it cost? All of them.

I couldn't tell my wife I'm give up a few of my chicks. She said all of them.

I told her, but this is a prayer warrior.

She said all of them.

This right here, see, she don't want she didn't want to talk to—

no, all of them.

I said, this one right here will help you.

She— no, I want all of them.

I'm trying to hold on. Come on.

She said all of them.

That's the value.

If you don't believe that what God has for you is better than anything that you possess.

That means that you don't know the value of the kingdom. Number 3, don't devalue the kingdom.

Tell your neighbor, don't devalue the kingdom. I got to go to work a little bit, Mike. Come on, sir. Let me go to work a little bit.

See, when we devalue the kingdom, we change people from being grateful to entitled. Talk, sir. Oh no, see, see, see, when you devalue the kingdom, you start making them think that you make the church run.

You start making them think that God can't heal nobody without them. You, you mess them around and change them for being grateful, be being saved, for being entitled because they think they got Jews.

Come on, come on, come on.

Say your neighbor, don't you dare devalue the kingdom. Devalue the kingdom.

Watch this.

When God dealt with them, he gave them the value of the kingdom.

Then he gave them the function of the kingdom. Matthew 13:47 and 48.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net that was cast into the sea and gathered up every kind, which when it was full they threw to shore and sat down and gathered the good into the vessel, but cast the bad away.

Somebody say Say that's the function of the kingdom.

That's the function of the kingdom.

The function of the kingdom is to catch and separate. We're in the time of a wheat and tare era, and it's not because we are rejecting people.

It's simply because we are illuminating Christ and they are being discovered as a counterfeit. I don't, I don't, I don't have to talk about you no more. All I've got to do shine, baby. I don't have to talk about your darkness. All I got to do is shine, and what will happen is that everything that is cast in the light shall be revealed.

We spend too much time making it our mission to expose people.

Come on, sir. Come on. Come on.

Come The misuse and misunderstanding of discernment.

Yes, sir. One, discernment only tells you if it's God or not.

That's right, that's right. It don't tell you what's in their dressing. Come on, sir, come on.

It don't tell you if they, you know, they had a sex—

that ain't discernment. Discernment only says, is it God or not? Talk Now you be talking about my discernment is going crazy.

Come on, come on.

I know something about you. I know something about you. My discernment is going crazy. No, it's sin calling to sin.

Just like deep call to deep, sin call to sin. Who can know the spirit of a man?

Except the spirit of man. I know your carnality through my carnality.

God ain't, God ain't watching, telling, and trying to tell you what's in your flesh. He's trying to tell you what's for you in the kingdom.

Yes, sir. See, you devalue the kingdom because you use the, the gifts of God as magic tricks. Now you turn— now you turn a real spiritual service into entertainment. Somebody say, ask your neighbor, what is your end goal?

When you prophesy to me, what is your end end go? No.

Come on, sir. Come on.

When you lay hands on me, where does your end go?

Talk, sir.

When you come watch me in the word, where does your end go? If it's not to restore such a one, then your goal is wrong. And if your motive is wrong, your movement is wrong.

Yes, sir.

Motive determines movement. Whatever I want determines what I do.

Don't devalue the kingdom. We devalue the kingdom because we use gifts as magic tricks. Now when they come to the kingdom, they not expecting deliverance, they expecting a show.

That's right. Huh? My God.

If you don't jump around and hoop and shout, we ain't had church. No, sir.

Huh? Yeah, keep it real. You devalue the kingdom. Come on, sir. Let me get up in here.

That's good stuff. You can't devalue the kingdom by moving outside of the function of the kingdom. When we devalue the kingdom We find ourselves turning people from being grateful to entitled. Watch this. We find ourselves turning people from being a resource to a source.

You're not no darn source, you're a resource.

You are— the source is God, and when he give you something to give me, You ain't nothing but a resource.

But we will make people think that they are the source instead of the resource. And see, with that understanding, they begin to get puffed up.

You taking them from being grateful to entitled. Last but not least, you put the weight of the church on their shoulders. But the Bible said, let the Lord build the house, then them that labor, labor in what?

Emptiness, religion.

Come on, come on. How in the world you make a person feel like that if they leave the church, the church going to die?

Come on, sir, come on. Let me help you out.

God said, all I need He said every work gonna be tried by fire to see what kind of work it is.

And if you lose everything, but if you keep the foundation of Jesus Christ, I can build again and again and again. A just man falls 7 times, because he have a foundation of faith, he get back up because he have a foundation of belief. Get back up because he love the Lord. Get back up because his foundation—

foundation, man, he can rebuild everything. He can rebuild again, man.

And you know how many times the devil told me you to miss your turn?

You stayed in sin too long, man. You, you missed your turn. You messed up too many times. You missed your turn, man. Just go somewhere and become a part of somebody else's church because you done missed your turn.

But God said if you stand on the foundation of forgiveness, if you stand on the foundation of repentance, if You stand on the foundation of holiness I build you.

Yes, God. Yes, God. Thank you.

All right. Yes, sir. Boy, come on now.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

They looked at Nehemiah and they said, you got to be crazy. Come on. Here you are using burnt rocks.

Come on.

Do I got any burnt rocks in here?

You gotta be crazy. You mean to tell me you're gonna take some burnt rocks and rebuild, my God, the gate? My God, that which you build, if even a fox run up it, then it'll fall to the ground. But it's not about the rock, it's about the builder, my God. The builder is the one that builds through God.

You worry about the rocks, you need to worry about the builder.

Don't devalue the kingdom. Don't devalue the kingdom.

Your attitude would devalue the kingdom. Yes, sir. When you have a begging attitude, begging people to come to church, okay, you devalue the kingdom. I ain't begging nobody to come to church. I got the best product in town. How in the world I'm gonna beg you? Rolls-Royce don't beg nobody. Come on, Maybach ain't never made a commercial to beg nobody.

And here we are, we got Jesus, we, we got the kingdom, and here we are, please come, come see, come on now, you desire when the kingdom by how you present it.

You present the kingdom like you got some mess. Jesus, he talking good.

Number 2, in the land of kingdom, when you scheme— in the radio land they call it hooks. The bad thing about hooks, don't nobody know the word, but all they know is the hook.

Talk, talk. Y'all know the Bad Boy song? Don't nobody know the words.

Ain't there no bad boy, bad boy? They asked Martin on the interview, do you know the words yet?

He said, nah, I still don't know the words.

You devalue the kingdom by running scams and schemes.

Yes, sir. Baloney sandwiches and chickens and dogs.

Vicious. Come on, single night, divorce party.

You the value of the kingdom, man. You, you, you telling them that if you got to serve, you know, you got to walk it out. Come If you got to win the world with the world, you're the value of the kingdom. Sir, sir, I tell people all the time, I'll build a house with a Muslim, but I won't win a soul with him.

Come on.

Oh yeah, I use your entertainment, your gift to get them in the building, but it's going to be God's message Like Pastor Woods said, T.I., come on over here.

Come on over here.

One of my biggest dreams, and I'm just touching, was I wanted to go to Magic City.

Come on.

I want to pay all the girls. See, we used to buy all of them. When it come $5, we take the whole stage. I want to take the whole stage back to the VIP and tell them, don't take off your clothes.

Come on. A song is 3 minutes.

I said, I done paid for a song.

Give me my 3 minutes and preach the gospel for 3 minutes.

I paid for a song.

What can you do but give me my song? Don't take off your clothes.

Give me my 3 minutes and let me expose you to the value of the kingdom of God.

We somewhere, we somewhere, we somewhere. That's good stuff. Give me some. We somewhere.

You devalue the kingdom with schemes and scams. Last but not least, you devalue the kingdom with imitation anointing. Jesus Christ. Wow. When you find yourself coercing people to follow Tricking them that they're healed, telling them, come on, man, you, you, you are moving in and making them feel like something is happening that is really not happening.

You're dividing the kingdom because when they get home, and because they're out of the atmosphere of miracles, and they get home and the pain come back, they gonna call you a fake.

'Cause you did what? Devalued the kingdom. He never said invite nobody to church. He said compel them to come.

He said the Lord said in Luke 14:23, and the Lord said unto the servant, go out into the highways and the hedges, go over to the neighboring churches. The highways and the hedges. That's why Apostle would talk about church transfer rather than newcomers, because we never go to the highways or the hedges. We want to go where Christianity is accepted. See, why you only feel like prophesying when you in the safety of the sanctuary?

Why don't you prophesy when you at Walmart and they'll cuss you out. Why don't you prophesy when you down or you coming out of the ball game and everybody already a little tipsy and you prophesy and they'll hit you in it?

Come on.

See, real prophets, they put themselves right in danger. Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Old Testament.

They, they, they, they were prophesying where they was wanted.

They were prophesying everywhere themselves where they were wanted. They put themselves in direct danger because they needed people who was unsaved.

He ain't got nothing to say until somebody pass you the mic.

Come on, come on.

Soon as you get to church, you can't stop witnessing. You trying to please God with the foolishness. Is to preach it to those that are already saved.

That's hard, sir.

Soon as you get in church, you can't stop. You putting them in the bathroom. Girl, let me tell you, I had a dream about you last night. Don't you know she's up under an apostle who also take the seat of a prophet, who also take the seat of a pastor, who also take the seat of evangelist, who also take the seat You out of order.

Come up in my house trying to correct my children.

You do that to somebody who ain't got no dad.

I ain't let none of my children—

you try to correct my children, you got to come and tell me. Amen. So he said, come compelled them. And this is the biggest one. Did Jesus say go witnessing? What he said?

Well, you about smart as the Holy Ghost.

They told us to go witness. Come on, sir, go out there and witness. No, go out there and be. Go out there and Be.

Be.

When you have seen the Father, you have seen me.

Be, not tell. Be.

There's many different ways that you can witness. Witnessing means that you bring forth unrefutable proofs of what you are testifying about. You can't just witness without any evidence.

Oh my God, in so many terms, we are out in the highways and the byways telling about a Jesus that there's no evidence of him in our life.

You witnessing, man, you a good witness, sir, but you are not being a witness.

The word witness means that you bring forth proof and evidence of that which you testify of. Last but not least, that it means that you are the proof.

You are the evidence.

I don't believe in Jesus. You ain't got to. He right here. I don't think he ain't— I don't think he rose from the dead.

He right here. I don't think that he can preach. He doing it right now. I don't think that he can deliver me right here. See, you got to understand that you got to stop talking about something that you have no proof of.

Tell your neighbor, wait till you get proof.

Go back up on that mountain. Go back up on that mountain.

I'm almost finished. We're gonna rock out in a minute. I'm almost finished. When they use the word witness, uh, the word to be a witness, it comes from the Greek idea of being a martyr, which means that you die to prove something.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe now.

It means you die, you give your life unto death in order to prove something.

That's what a martyr is.

Ain't about just dying, it's about dying to prove something. That's good. Yes, sir. That's what the word witness means, to be a martyr. In the Greek sense. It means that you die to prove Jesus. All right, brings you into the captivity of the mindset. No longer I that live, but Christ that liveth, because I was crucified with him, but yet I live.

But not me that live, but Christ.

Say, you know it's messed up.

Say, you know it's messed up when I still see you. If there's any residue of you, you have contaminated the experience.

I'm going to get up out of here. We have 45 minutes.

I'm going to get up out of here. Apostle, it means in every sense, epical physical, right, and spiritual, that you are a martyr in order to bring forth proof.

He said—

never said tell them to come, beg them to come, but compel them to come.

He never said go out and witness.

He said be a witness.

And all of this comes from a lifestyle of spiritual animation. A lifestyle of spiritual animation. You have to ask yourself, why did Jesus first have to be anointed and then be tested and then be sent?

In order for that to happen, he to have a lifestyle of animation of the Spirit of God. And so many times we go out animating religion, we go out animating who we sit up under, we go out animating what we believe in our own minds, but we never check the facts by scripture.

Spiritual animation.

When you hear me and Apostle Woods, you already know we came up.

If you hear him speaking tongues, if you hear him singing tongues, if you hear him warring tongues, there's no doubt about it that we're in the same family. Yes, sir.

But what happened was we had to go and try the things that we had learned by scripture. Yes, sir. And we was only able to keep that which we could bring proof of, unless it would be a false testimony or either a blaspheming of the Holy Ghost.

When you are moving in things that you call God or call the Holy Ghost but it's not in scripture, you are ruining the reputation, i.e., blaspheming the Spirit.

Y'all both think that when you get the Spirit, you roll on the floor?

Blasphemy. Huh?

When you get the Spirit, you start speaking in tongues uncontrollably, can't nobody stop you? Blasphemy. When you get the spirit, you can't control it. I can't— got to say it. I got to say it. Blasphemy. God is too intelligent for that.

Come on, come on, come on.

You messing up the kingdom. You destroying the witness. Yes, sir. God, in my conclusion, God told me, he said, son, I never told you to beg people to come to church. I ask you to compel them.

What a word, what a word.

Come on, I ask you to find their necessity, something that money can't buy and humans can't supply, and pull on it. Yeah, I want you to exploit them. Yeah, but in a spiritual sense, I want you to have the desire to determine whether or not I even want them or not. And then once I know you know that I want them, you know that compassion will drive you to any length to get them back to me.

I want you to understand that I want you to not even stop at the cross. If you got to go on the cross, be buried in the grave, resurrect, and 'In a seed. I want what I gave you. I want you to give them everything that I gave you.' See, you always talk about your little cross. I gotta cross the bed, I gotta cross the bed. But what about a grave to lay in? What about a resurrection to walk in? And he said they brought proof of the resurrection of Christ. You got to bring more proof of newness.

He said they want more proof of what?

The resurrection of Christ.

You got to prove that he got up. We believe he got—

we believe he got beat.

Yes, sir.

But do we believe he got up? Come on, come on.

They was witnesses of the resurrection. So he said, son, don't you go out here witnessing no more, talking about stuff with no evidence.

I need you to be the proof. I need you to be the deliverance. I need you I need you to be that which you testify of.

And I don't want you to beg, not lay another person, but I want you to live a lifestyle that convicts them every time you come around. My God, you want to live a lifestyle that restrains them when they stand in the midst of your life. You want to live a lifestyle that restrains them. Restrains them when they stand in the midst of your victory. You want to live a lifestyle that compels them to come.

Glory to your name, Father.

I said, so God, what you want me to do? One thing I love about Miles Monroe was he taught me one time through a teaching about how the Queen came to the Bahamas. Yeah, he talked about that she came and all of her people, she made sure that they live better than anybody else.

They were drinking out of wood cups. They had never seen gold cups before. They were still wearing cutoff pants from sacks. They had never seen a European dress.

They were still living like, like peasants, and the servants had servants, and they It says that because they lived a lifestyle that was so much better than the people in the Bahamas, they converted. They said, what must I do to be a part of that kingdom? And what I'm telling you is that you can't make nobody come to God with an unattractive kingdom.

He just lied about your toe-up marriage.

Be quiet till it get right. Ain't nobody telling you that your marriage gonna be perfect, but I ain't got to promote imperfection. When in the world I'm gonna talk about something that ain't ready yet? You keep talking about your finances. Don't tell nobody else you broke, huh? Just wait till you get the money and then come out and promote. Come on, sir.

Come on. All right, all right.

I ain't no phony.

I ain't no phony either. Everything that's for me was predestined from the foundation of the world. Let me tell y'all something. God ain't God ain't creating nothing. He's waiting on you to become sensitive enough to find what he's already created.

God ain't creating that.

God ain't— you talking about bless me, Lord? You're already blessed. He's waiting on you to become spiritual enough to know where your blessing is coming from. He waiting on you to get spiritual enough so he can point out your giver. He's waiting on you to get spiritual enough.

I'm just waiting on God to bless me. I'm already blessed. What it is is that I'm ignorant. I'm ignorant. God told me to tell us this. What do you want me to do, Lord? He said, I want you to do everything better.

I said, everything?

He said, everything. Excellent.

I want you to do everything better. Better than what? Better than them.

All right.

He said, because as long as it look like you admire them, they ain't going to never follow you. He told me, he said, I want you to do better, do everything better. I said, but God, Am I— what if I'm financially challenged? He said, I want you to go through financial challenges better than they go through. I said, but Lord, what if I get sick?

He said, I want you to go through sickness better than they go through. I said, but Lord, what if I die? He said, I need you to die better than them. I need you to do it better than them. Don't you ever let them see you suffer as one who have no hope. I need you to do it better than them.

I asked him, I'm crazy, I said, but what if I die? You better die, you better show them how saints die.

You better show them what it look like to rest in the Lord. You got to show them what transition in peace look like.

If you die, you better better than them. This how I want you to do everything, everything. Excellence. Hey, hey, got somebody.

He said, I want you to do everything better than them.

If they counsel somebody, you do it better than them.

Now come on now.

Elevation. Thank you, Father. God said, thank you, Father.

When you are compelled by the love of God, you will always minister through compassion.

All right.

Love is un— selfish and unrepayable desire to see one well. All right, meaning that love is an arrow, not a boomerang. It's a gift, not an investment. That's right. And anytime you're looking for love to come back, you ain't really loving at all. He said, son, tell my people I want them to be a witness of my unselfish love. I want you to love somebody who don't have the capability of understanding, neither repaying you, Jesus, for the love you gave me.

I want you to forgive somebody who have sworn on a thousand wolves that I never forgive you. I want you to forgive them. I want you to pursue somebody who cuss you out every time you call, because I want you to give them something that will confuse them, that will make them say, this can't be nothing but God, because man is incapable of this type of investment.

Compel them to come. Shabran. Give me some screens, man of God. Yes, Lord. This here was a vision of God, and this was not A service to preach you happy, but to, through the word of God, give you tools and conviction in order for you to win souls. There are 3 things that I only want to pray for. I want to pray for 3 things. If you still up on the mountain and you've been there too long You can't pass your test. I want to pray for you because you can't be a witness till you pass that test. You've been at that same thing for many years. I ain't afraid to tell y'all, I, I, I, I suffer with sexual Sins, not perversion, just sin. I couldn't, I couldn't turn a woman down in my tribe.

And I went in the club, I was at the church, you know what I'm saying? I was at the church and people tried to convince me that that was just my portion, that maybe that's your thorn in your side. I said that this is a lie. That ain't my thorn in my side.

I ain't going to be in sin when Christ come back.

And I went to a little small church. It was some white people in there.

When I saw them, you know, we so used to the apostolic anointing and the prophetic thrust.

I said, ain't nothing gonna happen in this church. Seen a little bit of white men.

I sit in that seat and these men read the prayer off a piece of paper.

Man of God, they didn't even—

they ain't have no bass, they ain't have no thrust. They just got the little piece of paper and read everything on that paper.

But when it got to my sin—

come on, sir. Oh, this been many, many years ago, so I don't want y'all be like, Pastor J got delivered. No, it's been some years ago. Yes, sir. She wouldn't be here if I ain't—

she ain't come here for that. That was many, many years ago. Yes, sir. But I was an evangelist.

I I had a title. I didn't have a church yet, but I had a title.

I was preaching all over the city, and I was in sin, boy.

And I went in that church, Apostle. I sat on that seat, and I told God, I said, I can't serve you like this, or this thing going to catch up to me.

I knew it. I knew it.

I was getting more aggressive. When your sins start start getting more aggressive, that means that you are becoming that sin.

There's a difference between being oppressed and possessed. When that thing get out of control, you moving into possession. All right, you becoming the property thereof. I, I, I would get more and more aggressive.

I was taking more and more chances. And that man read that little paper, he got to my sin, and I knew I got delivered because God took me all the way back to the origin of the sin. I was 7 years old then. A young lady hurt me. I thought she was my girlfriend, and I caught her kissing my brother. Come on. And I said at said at that very moment, I'm gonna make all women pay for that. And I went through them like paper.

Pow, pow, pow. No feelings, no remorse. But that night when he read that paper, I went back in time and I was 7 again, and God healed my Thank you, Father. You just need a healing, man. See, everybody, they want to throw you on the ground and cast the devil out of you, but you need a healing first.

Because you got to ask yourself, why are you in agreement with that demon? That demon is there because of necessity.

He ain't no trespasser. He a resident.

And it's because you need him.

Some people need to be angry. Some people need to be violent because it's a resident that protects me.

You can't, you can't witness about them till you come off that mountain.

Number 2, if you are witnessing without knowledge, come on, sir, you just out here blindly and ignorantly talking about Jesus. We say that name because we understand the contents behind the name. We ain't just saying Jesus.

When we say Jesus, we place a demand on all of the content that the name represents.

Yes sir, yes sir, yes sir, yes sir.

You just hollering Jesus, you don't know what's in there. It's called ketchup, but it's some ingredients in the ketchup, and you can't remake it if you don't know the ingredients. All you know is the name. Yes sir, you can't make no cake, talking about it's a pound cake.

What goes in the pound cake?

You got to know the ingredients to duplicate it.

And you can't duplicate Jesus if you don't have no knowledge. If you're asking God to fill you with wisdom, apply knowledge. I want to pray for you. I want to pray. Last but not least, if you have failed to bring forth proof—

fruit.

Come on, sir, you going to need We think that the fruits of the Spirit is show-off gifts. The fruits of the Spirit is used to survive one another.

We, we, we think the fruits is so we can show off. I need the fruits of the Spirit to stay married. Yeah, I need the fruits of the Spirit for me and him to stay brothers. I'm gonna have to use that fruit to stay in fellowship.

Yes, yes, yes.

It's not to show off. Oh, I got the fruits of the Spirit, now I'm gonna go preach. No, you got the fruits of the Spirit because you're a part of a body. Yes, sir. And you need that fruit in order to remain in the body, to put up with one another, to be able to supply one another. The first sign that you don't have fruit is that you're easily offended.

It's okay. Come on, stand to your feet.

Oh God, we bless you in this place. God, compel them to come.

Kosha.

Compel them to come. Father God, we bless you in this place tonight.

We ask that we would not leave here the same way that we came.

Now we ask that even now, God, that you would begin to convict us in this atmosphere, because we cannot be sensitive to you if we can tolerate people dying and going to hell.

All right, we can't be like you if we can really and truly stand to see sinners still lost. It is the spirit of animation of the love of God that compels us to go beyond what is comfortable for us in order to gain souls, God. And we ask you tonight to fill us with that presence, to give us those things that we need, God.

Oh Father God, we thank you and we love you in Jesus Christ's name.

Come on, give God praise in this house. Come on, come on, I need y'all to shout better than that for the word. Come on, open your mouth.

Come Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on. I need you to bless him for the word. Can tell them, if you— I don't know about you, but something in you ought to be stirred to go and compel, to go and be a witness. Come on, open your mouth, open your mouth.

We thank Thank you for your word, God. We thank you for your servant. Hallelujah! He's so good. What an echo and a confirmation of the things that we've been saying we are to begin to take the business of God seriously. And his, his business is souls. His business is people. Apostle, thank you for sharing that word. Glory to God. I want you to stand for a moment and do me a favor. Apostle Praise, Here's what I want to do. I want you to grab one person by both hands because I want to activate something in this atmosphere under the auspices of that word that Apostle just preached. Grab one person by both hands. Please be obedient. Stop trying to figure it out. Just do it. Thank you. Glory to God. Two by two. The Bible says we touch and agree on any one thing, he's in the midst of us. God is here. And God wants to activate a witness in you. I want you to look at that person you're holding and say, in the name of Jesus, in the name of Jesus, say, I decree and declare, I decree and declare, that the word you've heard, the word you've heard, will come alive, come alive, in your life, in your life. Say, never will you, never will you devalue the kingdom, devalue the kingdom. Say, never will you, never will you Do not take for granted the job to compel. Say to them, you are a witness. Say, I'm getting ready to pray for you. And as we pray, the fire of God, the compelling anointing will rest upon you.

And from this day forward, many will be saved.

Because of your voice, because of your light, because of your presence.

Now here's what I want you to do. I want you to squeeze those hands and begin to pray right now.

Come on, I want you to open your mouth.

The Bible said we should pray one for the other. Come on, pray for that compelling spirit to stir in them. See, what you don't realize, there are souls assigned to those hands you're holding. There are people that need to be born again. There are people that need to be saved. Don't play.

I need you to pray.

Glory to God. You're a kingdom citizen on assignment. You're an ambassador to live a good life. The man of God talked about it, and I decree and declare as we pray tonight, your life is being elevated. Lebasatatabaya. Everything about you will begin to move in church. I decree and declare over you tonight that even as I'm praying and you're praying, that a financial inversion is happening in your life right now. I declare you'll never be broke another day in your life. I dare you to believe it. I declare that lack is leaving your house, lack is leaving your legacy, and I declare you will leave an inheritance to your children's children. I declare you're blessed. You are the head and not the tail. You are a lender and not a borrower. You are above and never beneath. I declare you are the witness. You are the proof. I tell you, pray them through the proof. I release millions, reaching millions. I release supernatural provision in your business, in your ministry, in your bank account, in your family. I declare you're not a second-class citizen, but you are a child of a king. Come on, push through. And this is last point. I want you to push them into better. I don't care how well you got it, but the man of God declared over us tonight that even as God spoke to him, and I try my best in everything I do to move in excellence, but I heard it again, even better than what you do. God says I'm about to push you into new realms of better, new realms of excellence. For to whom much is given, much is required. But God said there is much inside of every one of you, and God says, I'm calling you up to better. Come on, Shabata! Come on, push, push! Come on, Tamar! Don't you accept mediocrity. Another day I declare better, better, better, better, better, better, better, better, better, better, better in your health, better in your body, better in your business, better, better. Now here's what I need you to do. Loose your hands and give God praise for the next place. Give Give God praise for the better place. Somebody ought to catch this. You got to live with this standard.

God has a high standard.

He's a king.

We heard it tonight.

He's a king.

We're his family. And guess what?

If our king has everything, come on, come on, man of God, and he moved into your life, when he moved in, he brought everything with him. Everything.

So we should never settle for less. Thank you again, Apostle, for reminding us of our identity.

You can't be—

we're not human doings, we're human beings. So you do witnessing, but you be a witness. Y'all heard it.

So you got to die to your philosophies.

Your mindset. That's why I'll never apologize for nothing God do for me.

I ain't gonna apologize for nothing God has blessed me with.

Because if people think I'm blessed now, you ain't seen nothing yet.

When God get through with what he's gonna do with me, glory to the name of God, you're going to be able to look and say, God is with that man for real, because it should be visible.

My children, you know they my children, is visible because of how I've taken care of them.

Are you hearing me? What more do you think about God?

Come on, sir, it ought to be visible proof that we're his children. And I love him tonight. Yes, yes. Apostle, we appreciate you, man of God. Y'all give God a praise for the word.

You can be seated real quickly.

Glory to God. God is so good. He's so kind. He's so wonderful. I love my brother, man. I love him so much. And it's just been too long, man. I'm— we can't do do that no more. There's no more. Glory to the name of God. We got to make sure we stay connected. Glory to God. And you know the interesting thing about it, you don't even realize it, that when people are in your life, you'll have another entity that's in your life with you and the person, and you don't even realize it because the entity can see the power in the relationship. They'll be behind the things trying to divide the relationship. And that's demonic, that's witchcraft, and that's not of God. I told Apostle when I talked to him, when I invited him, I said, man, we're in the same city, just think of what we could do together if we connect. Are you hearing this? And for a long time I was Mississippi. I planted my Mississippi church, and when God sent me back home, you know, I, I have longed for fellowship with him and my other sister and some brothers that are part of who we are. And this is what we're supposed to do. Amen. So I'm glad tonight he's here, and I've been blessed, man of God. Thank you so much. And y'all give God praise again for the word.

Listen, those who don't mind, please don't go anywhere.

We're going to give right now. Y'all give God some praise in the sanctuary for this time to give. Mario, put the ways to give up on the screen for me. This meeting has been great. Uh, we started Friday night. God blessed us on Friday. Um, our praise and worship leader, Minister Tanya, she, she said to me yesterday, she said, Pastor, this This stuff is so good. She said, but you had it Labor Day weekend, folks just already went out of town. Well, I just had it when God told me to have it. So, and who needed to be here is him. And we didn't do this to raise money, we didn't do this for nothing. We did this because we wanted to deploy the saints with the knowledge and information they need to win souls. I've already— I already know what I'm gonna do for Apostle. So none of this is nothing but a time to bless the Lord. Amen. There are no tricks, there are no schemes. The ways of gifts are up. I want you to be a blessing to the kingdom. The Bible says if you give, it shall be given unto you good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall men give to your bosom. So First Lady trying to get your attention. Glory to God. So I want you to get your best seat tonight and get your best sacrifice. I want somebody to say everybody. I want everybody to get a seat. We didn't charge any registration. Uh, we fed our attendees this morning, uh, who came out at 10 o'clock, and we didn't charge anything. Uh, we wanted to make sure people would come and get this information. Amen. Amen. And so I want you to be a blessing to ministry tonight. I'm gonna pray and then I want you to give. The Bible says as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. So Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for the word. And your word says when we communicate spiritual things, we should communicate also our natural things. So Lord, tonight, in the name of Jesus, I pray for the spirit of liberality and giving. And Father, you said whatsoever a man sow, that shall he reap. And so Father, as your people release the seed tonight, it leaves their hand but never their life. And so Father, I thank you for what you're going to do with this seed, how money is going to come back to them good measure, pressed down, shaken together to their bosom.

And we thank you for it now. Even as the man of God was preaching about better, we thank you that we'll give better, that we won't have to be pressured to give and lied to to give, but because we know it's right to do it out of maturity, we'll do it and we'll do it better.

In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. If you got physical money or a check, you can give that too. I'mma grab this bucket. You can bring it and put it in the basket. But again, the ways to give on the screen.

I expect great things, great things.

Y'all see this thing?

I I'm expecting great things! I'm expecting great things! Oh yeah! I'm expecting great things!

Great things!

Thank you! Everybody expecting great things?

Oh, I'm expecting great things. Great things. Great things.

One more time, say it. Say it.

I'm expecting great things. Oh, I'm expecting great things. I'm expecting great things. Yes, Lord.

Good evening, Father. We thank you for every gift and every giver. Thank you for those that were obedient, and thank you, God, for even those that had a heart to give but they really couldn't give. But I praise you, God, the more for those that have, and they made a sacrifice tonight, and those that gave out of the goodness of their heart. God bless it and return it back to them. God, let them experience great things in their life. In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. All right, we're getting ready to go. Um, this again has been a great weekend. We close out tomorrow. I'm believing God's going to meet us here at 9 o'clock in our 9 o'clock service. Y'all pray for us. Glory to the name of God. And then Apostle Sears is going to close us out out tomorrow night at 6. So we're trusting God. She came on Friday, she came this morning. Apostle was here this morning. I love preachers who, when they invited to do something, they come and support the other preachers. It's— that's important. I do the same thing. It's important, man, because it says so much about the fact it ain't about you. Glory to God. We know it's about God and the assignment. So y'all pray that— I'm believing God for a harvest in the morning. We have been given an assignment in this church to bring people that are not saved tomorrow. I'm believing that even our people that's out that ain't been here all weekend, you know, COVID— and I hate to even say this out of my mouth because I've been confessing that we gonna get back past normal. Are y'all hearing this? But COVID hurt a lot of people. And I'll be hating to go live because they know we gonna go live, so they'll stay at home and won't come to church. But the reality is we shouldn't forsake the assembly of ourselves together as the manner of some is. You can't get at home what you get when you come. There's something that happens corporately that don't happen on your phone or your We gotta make the devil out of a liar. Get back to church. Are y'all hearing this? Because this is Kingdom University. Apostle talking about the kingdom tonight. We got to come here to be trained in matters of the kingdom so we can be deployed into the world. So I believe in God. Tomorrow is going to be a great day, and we're going to see a great harvest in this building. Y'all pray for us as we continue to grow and watch God do what he's called us to do. Um, one announcement I want to make in the presence of all of you, uh, say October. At the end of October, beginning on the 31st, the 1st, and the 2nd, we're going to be hosting a meeting here of Spiritual Warfare Weekend. We want to really do war against the enemy and the principalities in this territory. My son in the gospel will be here with me. Me and him gonna minister together. Apostle Brandon Cornelius from Jackson, Mississippi. So please, when you see the stuff go off of that, y'all register because it's gonna be good. God's gonna be here. Uh, Apostle knows Apostle Brandon. He know he's been with me a long time. He remember when he won Apostle right. Glory to God. And now God is using him all over this world to do some great things. So please, uh, if you guys can find it, not robbery, come back and be able to support to what God has called us to do. Baby, you got something to say? Okay, that's my wife, y'all. I love her too. Life. Amen. That's— you know, I heard something one time and And I didn't quite really agree with it when I first heard it. And the man said, there's only one woman that a man would change for. And I said, nah, I ain't found that one yet. That's what I said when I heard it. And again, this was 20 years ago. I'm gonna be me, you know. But when I found her It made me examine so many things about me. Yes, yes, that needed healing, that needed to change, that needed to just be different. And I just want to publicly celebrate you tonight for being the woman that brought great change in my life. Watch this, the Bible said he that finds a wife— not a woman— finds a good thing and obtains favor with the Lord. And I'm telling you, my life is so blessed since she's been in it. My businesses are blessed, my ministry is blessed, and it's just been a wonderful thing. So thank you. And because of her, I got two grand— I'm a papa. That's crazy, right? I got two grandbabies, one One of them back there, but my other one is just turned 1 yesterday. So I am great, and I love with the love of the Lord. I think you're a papa too, ain't you? Yes, sir. Glory to God. I love you all with the love of the Lord. And First Lady Tanya, we love you so much. Thank you for taking care of my friend. Thank you for making him happy. I was watching some stuff when he was over in Dubai. Y'all was over there enjoying life, man. Thank you for being there for him and taking him into new places of being Tony. And it's just amazing to watch. So I, I celebrate y'all, and I'm grateful for the love y'all share. Keep being an example to the world. Y'all give them a hand. Amen. All right, y'all stand. We're going Apostle, I'm going to give it back to you. You can have the final word and take us home, sir.

Amen, amen, amen. Let us stand. Amen. My wife says she going to remain quiet today. Amen. But I want to say thank Thank you, Dr. Apostle. Thank you, First Lady Woods. Amen. Lady Woods. Amen. She's the only lady in this year. And I can testify that this is totally different. Everything is different. This is what I'm saying. Everything is different. And I don't see big things, I see many things. Y'all are not going to deal in mass, y'all going to multiply. And there are going to be so many small rooms that create gigantic change. Change and gigantic things.

God said that I have given seed to the soul.

All right. And that the verbal seeds—

your word is spirit—

the verbal seeds that you plant, God said they're about to become return. Returns.

And I hear the Lord saying this, man of God, that even seeds that you forgot about, and seeds that people thought that they can disconnect the seed from the sower, all right, God said the harvest is still yours. God said, I would not rob you of not one seed that you sow. God said it does not matter what storm came after the planting. God said the seed is still valid. And God said, as you have already seen that men and women alike have been coming, calling, they've been talking, they've been seeing, God said now they're about to bring the And woman of God, is a perfect time for you because you're coming in the midst of harvest time. God said, you came at the end of horror, but now you're into harvest. And God said, trust me, daughter, that there is nothing that you have given or giving up or went through that I shall not repay you for. And God said, I will bless him abundantly to be a blessing to you. And God said, I shall exalt you in the eyes of all the people that said really.

They going to say really again.

I promise you, they going to say really again. It's not— it's going to be evident. It's not going to be nothing hidden. No, no, no, no, no. It ain't going to be, I bet you they ain't— no, it's going to be evident. You're going to be so blessed, and not just in substance.

There has been a transference of anointing between you and your husband.

The two have really become one flesh, and God said there is a ministry that is going to funnel people into this ministry far more greater than anything that he have ever seen. Funnel— nobody will out— will outshine you as being a witness. People are going to be compelled. Oh my God. Glory, glory.

You are the burning bush. You are the wonder. You are the person that they say she just can't be consumed.

I gotta turn and see why she's on fire, but she's not.

Because— hallelujah, hallelujah!

You're the model. Woman of God, you're the marvel. You are the marvel, not the signs and the wonders, not the preaching. You, you are the marvel.

I heard God say it's proof. See, I don't like to just talk. God says proof because you are the glory. Yes. That ain't just talk. You the glory.

So you are the proof, you are the marvel.

You magnify, exalt, and make known every ounce of God in the man.

You're the marvel. Just rest in that. You're the marvel.

As great as he is, you You are the wonder.

You're the wonder. You what they watch. You're the wonder. Father God, we bless you, Lord God.

We fill this house with expectation for in the morning we We speak right now into 6 o'clock tomorrow that not only will we have a move, but God, we will have a harvest. Yes, yes. What's the use of work with no harvest? Yes, yes. We are workers, we're present. You said the harvest is pitiful. Let the work and the harvest come together that we may see a great return, God. And everyone, God, that will come and shall, shall be filled with the gift of witness and the gift to compel.

Father God, we thank you and we love you. In Jesus' mighty name, amen. Come on and give God some praise. Goodness.
