Stretch your hands. Stretch your hands. Father, we thank you.
What a gift and a privilege and an honor it is, Lord.
To see the anointing that you have entrusted, both Vito and Eugenia and their family, God, you've entrusted them
to carry a vision, to carry a vision that is deep within their spirit.
You've entrusted this to them, Father. So we are privileged to sit under this anointing tonight.
Grace him, Lord. Grace him, Lord.
Anoint his lips, Lord, that it would come like a balm upon us in Jesus' name.
Let it flow like a balm upon a people tonight, Lord.
That they would see Jesus and the beauty of Jesus in Jesus' name. Amen.
Thank you.
The Bible says, likewise the spirit helps in their weakness.
For we don't know how to pray as we should.
We don't know how to live our life as we should.
We don't know how to worship as we should.
We are full of infirmities. We are weak in our humanity, in our natural man.
We are deficient. So Holy Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings that could not be uttered.
And He who searches the hearts, it's the Father, He knows what's on the mind of the Spirit.
Because Holy Spirit, He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
So our sufficiency is in Christ alone.
So if we may, for maybe a minute, to pray in the Holy Spirit, by that we acknowledge our weakness and insufficiency.
We do not rely on our strength. Christ alone.
There's no other power that will enable us to carry out the will of God.
Let's pray for a minute in the Holy Ghost.
Holy Spirit.
We are full of infirmities.
Oh, sweet Jesus, we acknowledge our dependence on You. Oh, God, we are so needy. We are so dependent,
oh Lord. Help us, Jesus, by Your Holy Spirit, oh God. Oh, help me, God. Help me, Lord.
Ah, you may be seated. I am just so excited to have the opportunity to share the Word of the Lord.
And yesterday we talked about altars. If you were here yesterday, we talked about establishing
a righteous altar in our own personal lives through the Holy Priesthood by
coming to Jesus for the cleansing of our sins and setting ourselves apart to God, fully. Because
this is the only way we'll be accepted by God as priests. It's full separation from the world,
sin, the devil, darkness. There's no mixture. The law of separation is holy. We don't mix.
Last time that the sons of God mixed disaster came onto this planet.
The earth was filled with violence, chines from the earth,
because the law of separation was broken. So therefore the priesthood is separation
onto the Lord fully. We talked about how to establish a righteous altar by prayer,
fasting, and giving. Those are the three main sacrifices that are required according to
Matthew chapter 6 that Jesus talks about that are done in the secret of our heart,
meaning that it's before God. And I challenged all of you who were here to start praying
once a day in the Holy Spirit one hour, if you remember that. Fast one day a week, if you remember
that, and give liberally, if you remember that. So after I conclude the message, we will have
an invitation for those people who need baptism of the Holy Spirit to receive the power, the gift
of tongues, the capacity to pray along with the enabling of the Holy Spirit. So we will make
room available in the front for those who want to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. So
having said that, my second topic would be building altars, but this is a little bit
different. This is a corporate altar that God builds using people, which means that Jesus said,
when two or three are gathered in my name, I am amongst you. Which means that you have to
meet the quorum, two or three. So the corporate altar, in order for it to be built to have
the corporate expression, that multiplication of grace, you have to meet the quorum, which is
two or three people. And what that does, if it's a quorum is met and people are gathered
in his name, not in the name of my denomination, my ideas, and then having Jesus kind of
blessed that, no, in his name, which means we do what he says.
And when he sees that you start doing what he's saying through logos, through his Holy Word,
through the prophetic spirit of God, he sees and says, oh, I will establish my throne here.
These people, they're gathered in my name. That is the beginning of the corporate altar.
That traps the presence of God in a geographical location,
meaning that even though God is omnipresent, he's everywhere at all times, but he's not
everywhere in his manifest presence. So the altar that we're talking about, the corporate altar,
when it's built in his name, where he can establish his throne, dominion, kingship, lordship,
priesthood, it traps God's power and his glory in a geography.
That is how the territory is taken. So when people, you know, want changes in their city,
a lot of times they get their own idea. They think that by protesting, having these banners
and flags, they can make a change. But that's not true. Change comes when the powers are broken.
It's in the spirit realm always. It just translates into the natural realm.
So territory is always taken by altars. Yeah?
Do you know how Muslims take territory? What do they build? An altar?
Not one, right? That's how they take territory.
They pray three times a day. There's consistency. There's fasting. There's giving.
And then we are surprised. Oh my goodness. What is happening to our community?
That means that their altar is overpowering your altar. While you're watching Netflix,
they're taking territory. That's true. So if we open to Amos 9-11,
God is about to do something radical across the globe. It's a prophetic word that was released
by God to prophet Amos. It talks of the end times. This is the end time passage.
End time prophetic word before Jesus returns. If you read it in context and you read it lower,
you know it's talking about a thousand in your reign. It's leading up to
the return of Jesus. Let's read it together. Amos 9-11. On that day,
I will raise up the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down and repair its damages.
I will raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old. That they,
that's the house of prayer, may possess, take territory first, the remnant of Edom.
Edom is modern day Jordan, Muslim countries.
And all the Gentiles who are called by my name says the Lord who does those things.
From restoration to rebuilding, the whole process is done by God.
He is the one that facilitates everything.
So God through his prophets said that he would raise up again the order of worship and prayer
that David had established.
If you remember David, he set up the ark of the Lord in a tent in Jerusalem. Who can remember
that time? Do you remember that in the Bible? First Chronicles.
It was different than the tabernacle of Moses. In fact, at that time where David put the ark,
the glory of God under the tent, the tabernacle of Moses was in Gibeah, in a high place. That's
where the sacrifices were done, for since according to the prescription of the mosaic law.
So he sets the ark which represents the glory of God, the throne of God
in the middle, and he sets up worshipers, prayer people, and musicians.
So they're singing, they're praying before the glory of God and there's no separation.
There's no veil. It was a prophetic sign
of the covenantial blessings that were about to come. It was a prophetic sign.
It was showing to the age that we're living in, to the covenant that Jesus establishes
of God, the Vinic covenant. Now David was not from the tribe of Levi, yet he ran in the prophetic
and he did priesthood. It was a prophetic sign
showing that the new priesthood is about to arise. We know that our Lord, he's shown out from the tribe of Judah.
He is the source and the root of David. It was a prophetic sign that a new order
of priesthood
will arise from the tribe of Judah. The prayer and worship went on day and night.
So you can imagine, they're singing and musicians. There were 24 divisions and they would
change each other out as their time slot was established by families. In fact, David employed
4,000 doorkeepers and 4,000 musicians. Bankrolled them. It was a job.
Can you imagine a job where you go to work to pray? So you say, yeah, I'm going to get
do two shifts, eight hours, and then maybe get some overtime in a night watch.
I love my job. Oh God, please help. Yeah, it's real.
During that time
of the great altar that David established, no enemy could touch them and be victorious. Not one.
The kingdom prospered because of the great altar that was established
of prayer and worship day and night. The territory of Israel was secured,
not as much as by armies, by prayer and worship. Now God wants to be worshiped on earth
as he is worshiped in heaven. God wants to be worshiped on earth exactly as he wants to be
worshiped in heaven. He is the one that determines the order of prayer and worship.
Now we can maybe, he let us decide a style, a guitar, an instrument or whatever,
but he determines the order, how it's supposed to be done.
So he chose David, a man according to his heart, to establish worship according to the heart of
God. Jesus says that God, he seeks worshipers, which means they're rare, not easily to be found.
He has to look for them. Not all have the heart like David had for God.
Saul got disqualified. So Jesus says, God searches, he looks for people
with the heart of David, the heart of worship and prayer. They're rare. You know that intercessors
are rare. People of prayer are rare. Their weight is in gold. They're the ones that move things in
the spirit and make and bring forth change. But they're rare. So in first chronicles,
chapter 28 and 19, David said, all this the Lord has made me understand and writing by
his hand upon me, all the works of these plans. And what that really means is that David did not
come up with this idea of worship and prayer. He received it by the Holy Spirit.
It came from heaven. It wasn't a great idea. It was a heavenly idea that came upon him
and gave him understanding of how to do it. Now John the Apostle
was shown how God is worshiped in heaven. The Bible says that when he was in an isle of
Patmos, he was in the spirit on the Lord's days and behold a door was set in heaven.
So his spirit man leaves and immediately he's in the presence of God.
He said a throne is set in heaven. Every created order
is around the throne. It is the center, epicenter of everything, the throne of God.
When John describes God, he says the one that set on the throne was like
the stone of Jasper and Sardis, the brilliant brightness, deep red colors, emerald,
rainbow that looks like the color of emerald. And he says that God is light.
Such power, such brightness, such glory.
It's breaking forth from the throne and when he sees that God is light and there's no darkness in him.
It's supernatural light. That light is heavy.
There are things in it.
God dwells in unapproachable light. The raw power is concentrated.
God is so powerful. When we say God, he says truth.
I will tell you that he's so powerful that anything he says becomes truth. That's power.
Anything he says becomes truth. We can say truth, true things from the Bible.
God is so powerful. Anything that comes out of his mouth becomes truth. Such power, such glory.
And around the throne, he says, I saw 24 thrones. And on those thrones, he saw 24 elders.
God rules by thrones, so you know.
He rules by thrones. When he establishes a throne, that means his governorship has come, has arrived.
The enemy is defeated. He has no chance.
Because God rules by thrones.
So in the corporate expression of the altar, when we're gathered in his name,
Jesus is centric to everything we do. Everything he says. We do it. Oh God, help us. We want to do it.
Prayer and worship day and night, his throne comes down.
His presence rests on the praises and worship and prayers of his people. It is sustained.
Anybody that comes in into that place is touched by God.
Devils come out of people. All sicknesses go away. Do you know why?
Because heaven comes down to earth. A portal is open. And shalic activity is intense.
The cherubs have landed protectors of God's glory.
So devils get in there. Such power comes.
Cities are shaking. They are churned. That's when bars close.
That's when the idol worship and the idol industry goes bankrupt.
Because the throne has come.
Because people are maintaining the prayer and worship order established by God.
Day and night. Night and day.
As it's established by David. I have on the order of worship is continual.
Like I said, it's day and night. Four living creatures, they cry out, holy holy. Day and night. They have no rest.
When I read that, when I was younger, I always wondered like,
like, I felt, I felt bad for them. Like they get stuck in the prayer meeting. I would never end.
It's like, do they have anything else they could do? Like, they're like, they kind of got a job or they can't leave.
Well, that's because of the lack of understanding. Do you think they want to leave?
Oh, show Robocote. No. Oh, God.
On the wave of glory, break forth from the throne. They cover their eyes with two wings.
They cover their feet with two wings. They fly with two wings. Just the power hits their eyes.
They open. They perceive the glory of God. The revelation of Jesus Christ. And they cry,
holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty. Who was and is and is to come.
And they wait for another wave to hit. Day and night, continual worship. That's where David
got the understanding. This is where he received it. Having the order of worship is musical.
It says that 24 elders and living creatures had a harp and a song and ascending new song.
That's where prophetic songs are born of Jesus.
This is how songs come from heaven.
Because there's dimensions of music. It's continual.
Heavenly order of worship is relational. All creation worships God.
No one is lost. No one is falling through the cracks. I always thought, I don't know about you,
that there's just so many people, there's a multitude there on the sea of glass. I'm like,
well, what if I'm in a bag? How do you get closer? How does he see me?
All creation is noticed. God is relational. He's so involved with your life, you don't
know. He's so involved with you. He's relational God. Not one creature is outside of his scope
of attention. He's very relational. No one is missed out.
Heavenly order is God-centered. A throne of God and the Lamb is at the center.
Always will be. Every time the focus shifts from the center, there's a disbalance.
We had a thing in Ukraine. I don't know if you have it here, back when I was back in the day.
I'm old during the Soviet era. So we had, it was called Yula. I don't know,
it's that round thing. We would pump it and it would just spit on that little needle thing.
What does it call here? Yeah. Because it was balanced on a center. So imagine that thing
spinning and you move the center. What happens to the universe? What happens to your life?
What a mess. Such disbalance. Everything is falling apart.
Everything in your life is falling apart because it is off center.
Because the throne of God Christ is not centric in your life.
So you have to rebalance, re-collaborate, go back to the center to Christ.
And then your life starts to get normal again because he is in the center.
All things come through him, by him, and back to him in glory.
Everything God does comes from him. It's done by him. And it goes back to him in glory.
If that chain is broken, if we receive something from God,
and we start adding our own ideas to that, it's over. It's not going back.
It landed. It became void. Jesus couldn't do miracles everywhere. You know that, right?
Some place he just couldn't do it. It's off center. I've balanced. People just couldn't believe.
So everything in the prayer and worship order comes from him, from heaven.
We have the Bible. We have the oracles of God. We have the prophetic voice of the Holy Spirit.
Do you know how to identify a living church from a dead church?
In a dead church, spiritual dead church, I'm talking about. I mean a church can be big
and still be dead. In a dead church,
the voice of God is not heard in prophecy. Jesus stops speaking. He's not there.
Because the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
In a place where there's prophetic word, there's prophetic, that means that Jesus is still speaking.
That's good. You might have problems, but Jesus is speaking. He's in the midst of us.
We have a chance.
But when tongue sees prophetic goes away, that is a sign that Jesus has left the house.
All you have is flesh. His spirit will not strive with men because they're flesh.
As soon as flesh comes in, God leaves. And you won't even know when he left.
Because the numbers are so good.
But prayer goes down, prophetic becomes non-existent and tongue sees. That's how you know. Jesus has left the house.
A biblical of David of prayer of worship is a copy of heavenly worship prayer.
It's continual worship, praise and intercession.
It's prophetic. Prophecy and instruments, prophetic songs. It's around God's throne in his holy presence.
So when we look at a tabernacle of David, what we find is that continual worship and praise
and the musicians would prophesy on instruments.
Prophesying on instruments.
Well, what does it look like? Well, it's when a person picks up an instrument
and he starts playing not from here, but from your belly, from the spirit.
Because our spirit is mixed with the spirit of God.
We're one spirit with him. Those who joined unto the Lord was the one spirit with the Lord.
So that opens up a portal from heaven. Things start coming down from him, from the spirit realm.
Do you know that David was a student of priesthood through Samuel?
When Saul was anointed king, Samuel put out the oil. And he says, when you're going to go,
there's going to be three men coming from Bethel. One will carry three goats.
One will carry two loaves of bread. One will carry a skin with wine.
One of them will give you two loaves. It was a sign. Then you'll meet a group of prophets
coming from the high place of Ramah. And they will have stringed instruments.
A tambourine, a flute, and a harp. And they'll be prophesying. And when you come in the midst of that,
the hands of the Lord will come upon you and you will start prophesying and you'll be a changed man.
String instrument, wind instrument, prophecy, spirit of God, change lives.
That's what it looks like. Prophetic singing, prophetic playing. This is why, if you want to open
a portal into heaven, you have to have the elements of the prophetic playing and singing
in the Holy Spirit. Because singing with understanding is human effort. Your mind is
involved. It's a pathway. It's what we do, because we worship God with all of our beings.
Our mind too. We are to love God with all of our minds. So we sing songs. We write songs,
we sing songs. Beautiful songs. But it's the things of the spirit. When deep calls on too deep,
our spirit connects to the spirit of God. That's when things really open.
So can you imagine a place, an altar, a house of prayer, a tabernacle of David,
where there's day and night, prayer, worship in the Holy Spirit.
Just praying, worshiping in the Holy Spirit. This is when the portal opens up.
This is when the glory of God descends. This is when cities are taken for God.
Yeah.
Territory is taken by altars. What Israelites went to take territory, what did God tell them to do?
Destroy what? Altars. Because that's how the nations would keep territory in their possession
through demonic forces by altars. So God said, destroy the altars, cut down the tree,
cut down the image, burn it, build an altar to the Lord, your God, and make sacrifices to him.
That's how you keep territory by altars. It is always altar versus altar.
If you put the effort, at least equal to the effort that the demonic altars are operating in,
you will overtake them. At least match the effort of their dedication, their fasting, their giving.
Did you ever wonder? Oh, you have time. I don't even know. I'm preaching myself happy.
You look at, okay, let's look at how companies prosper. They use demonic altars. We know that.
We're not ignorant. Starbucks, for instance, any successful company. Big seven, right?
Whatever. I drink Starbucks. I don't care. I have a bigger altar.
Did you wonder, like, what does Starbucks have to do anything with a gay agenda?
They sell coffee. Did you ever make that connection? Like, why do they put so much money into that?
They must, because they're supervising spirit of the altar demands sacrifice. And he says,
this is what you're going to do. You're going to give a million dollars to this cause.
And they do it.
Microsoft. Take any company, like what? Target. Why do they give such huge money to these causes
that the demonic influence would come in and infiltrate?
Because they are ministering at the demonic altar, and that's what it demands.
It's a supervising spirit tells them what to bring in order for the company to grow
and be successful. Yeah? That's how they do it. You think they become wealthy just like,
because they're so smart? No. Things are one and a spiritual plane. Things happen here.
They're trained in priesthood to the devil. He trains them.
Because Lucifer, the bearer of light, he was at the height
of God's order of angelic beings. He understands priesthood, trust me.
He's seen the golden altar before the throne of God. He knows how to operate.
He knows how to do this. That's why he does it.
He's copying things that God has established. And this is why it's always altar versus altar.
So God says that I will raise up the tabernacle of David as in the days of old, meaning that
a prayer movement is coming to this planet that is going to go day and night.
Jesus says that when the word of God or the gospel is preached to every nation,
the end will come. Do you know how that's going to look like?
God sends missionaries. God sends evangelist apostles to preach the gospel.
Then a house of prayer is established. That is day and night. And that's how territory is kept.
Which means that in every nation of this world will be a house of prayer that will be functioning
day and night, just like in the days of old. It's coming. It is coming. Praying long will
be normalized again. Yeah. Yeah. Bring sacrifices to God. Fasting will become normal again.
It will become normal again. So God is raising up a prayer movement.
And they must possess the realm of Edom. Prayer movement will go into the Muslim
countries. You will see. Revival is coming to the Muslim countries. It is coming.
A prayer movement. Altars will be built. The house of prayer will be built. That
will function day and night. And the glory of God will be in that place.
Oh, Jesus. You know what? I think I'm going to...
I want to spend time in prayer for those who want to receive the
baptism of the Holy Spirit. Because I can go on and on and on. Like I said, Jesus, help me.
Do you see the picture? We are a local expression of what God is going to do globally.
The mandate for this church is to take territory here. The mandate that I have
is in Springfield, Missouri. Take territory there.
But we have one goal. Filled with one spirit. One agenda. That the kingdom of God would spread
and go forth in power. Amen.
