WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.640 So I've got something on me this morning that's very heavy. I asked the children to stay in, not for the children's sake, but for the worker's sake. 00:05.760 --> 00:10.160 Of course, the children can glean something here too, but for the worker's sake, because I don't know who this applies to. 00:11.560 --> 00:19.640 Last night at the prayer meeting that was here, the Lord put this on me and He said, you need to deal with this now. 00:19.880 --> 00:30.890 There's a time element to this. So I'll work my way through this. Be patient with me. 00:32.530 --> 00:39.070 For someone or someone's, and I wrote some notes trying to, I want to make sure I describe this the best I know how to describe this. 00:40.790 --> 00:50.710 There's someone or someone's, you're not getting answers to the prayers you're praying. You're praying for something, you're after something, and you're not... 00:50.710 --> 00:56.990 It's not manifesting online. This could very specifically apply to whoever's watching there this morning. 00:56.990 --> 01:07.070 The feeling I have is the immediate need is a health issue, a physical issue, but the principle applies to everything. 01:10.630 --> 01:16.190 And the Lord told me last night, He said, there's people who are after something and they're not getting the answer. 01:16.590 --> 01:24.610 He said, you have to tell them and describe to them how to do it, but tell them they have to pray differently. You're not praying correctly. 01:25.390 --> 01:32.930 And I said nothing about this to Mary other than I've got something for this morning, and then at the end of prayer, she went into it. 01:33.490 --> 01:41.650 And then Pastor Eger kind of gave a glancing blow at it. So it's the whole service kind of building around this. 01:43.710 --> 01:52.590 You've been praying, you've been quoting Scripture, you've received a rama word, you're stating your rama word. 01:52.590 --> 02:03.210 This thing has been on your mind, whatever the issue is, it's bothering you, it's increasing in intensity and on your mind and bothering you, 02:03.330 --> 02:16.370 pursuing it, you're after it, but nothing's changing. So I'll say it again, you're going to need to pray differently than you're praying. 02:17.030 --> 02:28.210 And many times we can get affected in how we pray by tradition. What our parents prayed like, what it was like when we were growing up has a huge effect on how we'll pray. 02:29.790 --> 02:36.650 Religion, bad teaching, our personality can get in the way. 02:39.210 --> 02:51.370 It makes us feel uncomfortable to do what I'm going to describe. Sometimes we think it's irreverent, so I could never do that. 02:52.030 --> 02:57.950 Wouldn't God get upset? Well, God's talking to you this morning, whoever you are, if you're here, you're online. 02:58.750 --> 03:07.550 God's talking to you, and let me show some scripture so you understand it's not irreverent. 03:08.730 --> 03:26.810 And the best way for me to do this, let's try that, the best way I think for me to do this is screen mirror, a couple of things. 03:31.770 --> 03:42.350 Never always sure it's going to work. It's a little bit small, I don't think I can make it bigger. 03:44.970 --> 03:51.170 James chapter five, anybody in trouble, he should pray, anybody happy, let him sing songs of praise, anybody sick. 03:51.510 --> 04:00.770 And then he talks about that realm, call for the elder of the church, pray every anointing with oil, prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well. 04:00.770 --> 04:08.110 Lord will raise him up, if he sinned he will be forgiven. Verse 16, therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other. 04:08.190 --> 04:14.390 Now please note something in this section of scripture, he's not giving one way to receive your answer, he's giving several. 04:16.630 --> 04:20.510 If this isn't working for you, do this. If this isn't working for you, do this. 04:21.410 --> 04:27.350 Sometimes our own pride is blocking our answers, and we need to confess our sins to somebody. 04:27.350 --> 04:32.090 Don't put it in the paper, don't put it online. Don't talk to the town gossip. 04:34.230 --> 04:40.470 But sometimes you need to confess something to somebody to remove the blockage before the answer comes through. 04:41.250 --> 04:46.190 So he's hitting some things here. Confess your sins to each other, pray for each other that you may be healed. 04:46.910 --> 04:54.310 The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. That's the part I want you to see there. 04:55.530 --> 05:02.070 And I want to take you in a little bit of a Bible study. Again, I can't. If I do it this way, I don't... 05:02.070 --> 05:04.010 Oh, a little bit bigger. Let's do it this way. 05:05.110 --> 05:11.050 Effectual NIV says effective. King James, effectual fervent. New King James says the same. 05:12.110 --> 05:16.310 What does that mean? I just underlined some parts here. 05:16.310 --> 05:25.870 To be at work, to operate, to be active, to be effective, to put forth power, to produce effect. 05:26.830 --> 05:31.370 It comes from the word that is, we get our word energy. It's energy. 05:33.210 --> 05:40.990 It means to be active at work. It's the direct source of the English word energy. 05:40.990 --> 05:44.930 And I know it's small. I'm reading it to you, but it's small. It's there. 05:46.670 --> 05:52.870 It means to effect or accomplish or work something with active power. 05:54.090 --> 06:00.870 It often implies effective, productive activity rather than mere busyness. 06:01.190 --> 06:05.670 Now, this is important. I'm going to touch this a bit. Power and motion that achieve something. 06:05.670 --> 06:10.930 So it's talking about working. It's talking about being active. It talks about doing something. 06:11.470 --> 06:18.370 But that word is not talking about busyness. Sometimes we pray. We confess the word. 06:18.510 --> 06:24.570 We speak. We ask God. And it's like busyness. It's not coming from our heart. 06:25.150 --> 06:30.850 It's coming from our head. Head prayers avail nothing. 06:32.410 --> 06:35.410 God looks at the heart. He pays attention to the heart. 06:36.670 --> 06:47.150 I ask, why did the King James and New King James take the word that is actually energy and translate it effectual or effect... 06:47.150 --> 06:52.570 NIV effective or fervent? Fervent means hot. Why did do that? 06:55.470 --> 07:01.250 The word energy fundamentally means to be at work to operate, to put forth power. 07:02.390 --> 07:11.190 The King James translators chose effectual to capture the idea of prayer that actually produces results. 07:11.710 --> 07:17.150 Not just potential, but effective in action. 07:17.510 --> 07:26.070 They added fervent to convey the energetic, active, impassioned qualities of this prayer. 07:27.110 --> 07:33.390 Prayer with real spiritual power at work, not cold or formal prayer. 07:34.210 --> 07:38.450 Formal prayer, it's going to destroy what you're after. 07:40.010 --> 07:43.410 You know, like, well, we got it. We're going to pray now. So everybody, let's fold our hands. 07:43.790 --> 07:45.610 Let's take our hats off. Let's be religious. 07:46.970 --> 07:51.110 Let's, okay, what could we say now that would be good? And God will get the point. 07:51.110 --> 07:57.170 You are wasting your time when you are caught in a difficult situation. 07:57.550 --> 08:00.790 If that prayer would have worked, you'd already have your answer. 08:04.960 --> 08:07.140 The word prayer there is dhesis. 08:08.600 --> 08:15.120 In the classical and biblical Greek, it refers to an earnest plea or request, 08:16.760 --> 08:21.280 often arising from a sense of need or want. 08:21.280 --> 08:28.780 It conveys humble, urgent intercession rather than casual prayer. 08:29.540 --> 08:38.880 So what he's describing here is somebody who is intensively hot after something. 08:40.080 --> 08:41.980 That's what he's describing. 08:47.800 --> 08:52.380 We are spirit, soul, and body. That's how we're created. 08:54.280 --> 08:59.020 There are times in order to get your answer, you have to have all three involved. 09:00.040 --> 09:02.120 At full throttle. 09:04.720 --> 09:07.560 All three involved at full throttle. 09:09.440 --> 09:14.440 The kind of prayer that James talks about and that I'm going to try to describe. 09:14.660 --> 09:16.900 Well, how does that look? What do I need to do? 09:16.900 --> 09:21.260 It does not originate in your head or in your emotions. 09:23.120 --> 09:26.060 This wells up out of your spirit. 09:31.480 --> 09:33.760 Please make that differentiation. 09:34.140 --> 09:39.040 Because sometimes people pray very emotionally and it goes nowhere. 09:40.480 --> 09:42.900 It doesn't work to come out of the soul. 09:43.380 --> 09:45.820 It has to flow out of the spirit. 09:46.160 --> 09:48.300 It has to well up inside you. 09:50.240 --> 09:52.520 That's what makes it Holy Spirit empowered. 09:53.340 --> 10:03.460 And when it wells up, it will result in an explosion in you. 10:05.980 --> 10:09.400 This has happened a handful of times over my lifetime. 10:10.180 --> 10:12.760 Again, in desperate situations. 10:12.760 --> 10:18.220 There's more prayers and more answers that I've gotten by quoting the words, speaking the rama. 10:20.620 --> 10:24.480 Doing the normal processes, there's more that I've gotten that I could count. 10:25.280 --> 10:30.240 But you hit those almost like dead ends in life. 10:31.060 --> 10:33.220 And the dumb thing won't move. 10:34.160 --> 10:35.660 It won't obey the word. 10:36.980 --> 10:38.540 It won't obey you. 10:39.400 --> 10:42.480 It just sits there almost like it's mocking you. 10:42.480 --> 10:43.360 Just stubborn. 10:45.840 --> 10:50.020 There is a way to deal with that, but you have to learn to pray differently. 10:52.160 --> 10:57.020 And what's going to happen, I'm going to try to describe it to you as it happens for me. 10:57.380 --> 11:00.300 And if there's anything, Mary, you could add to this when I'm done. 11:00.860 --> 11:01.300 Please do. 11:05.700 --> 11:06.140 When... 11:06.140 --> 11:07.660 Because see, it's on your mind. 11:07.800 --> 11:08.640 You're pursuing it. 11:08.720 --> 11:09.540 You're in the word. 11:10.020 --> 11:11.320 You're quoting the word. 11:11.320 --> 11:12.580 You're speaking your rama. 11:13.160 --> 11:14.460 But it's not changing. 11:14.720 --> 11:17.180 So it's becoming more and more intense to you. 11:17.480 --> 11:18.820 It's on your mind more. 11:19.340 --> 11:21.300 You're bothered by this thing. 11:21.440 --> 11:22.540 You're after this thing. 11:22.620 --> 11:24.180 You're asking God, what do I do? 11:25.840 --> 11:35.020 When it rises up, you need to engage it with your entire being. 11:35.800 --> 11:38.560 And you need to wait for it to rise up. 11:38.660 --> 11:39.860 It's like a gift to the Spirit. 11:39.860 --> 11:44.240 The gifts of the Spirit manifest, according to 1 Corinthians 12, 11:44.520 --> 11:46.420 as the Spirit wills. 11:47.420 --> 11:54.600 This form of effectual prayer or intercession will manifest as the Spirit wills. 11:54.840 --> 11:59.280 If we try to make it happen, it's emotionally, mentally based, 11:59.440 --> 12:00.840 and it'll accomplish nothing. 12:01.420 --> 12:04.760 And you can be very emotional and very desperate, 12:05.700 --> 12:07.520 but it'll accomplish nothing. 12:07.520 --> 12:12.260 There will be a rising up out of your Spirit. 12:15.070 --> 12:22.810 When that happens, you have to engage entirely. 12:23.110 --> 12:24.390 So let me try to describe that. 12:26.110 --> 12:32.890 Your focus, mental focus, becomes very focused. 12:33.850 --> 12:35.930 There's no mind wandering going on here. 12:36.550 --> 12:40.730 This is, bam, you're focused. You have to go with that. 12:42.030 --> 12:47.350 Your intensity, the intensity of what will erupt in your Spirit, 12:47.930 --> 12:52.010 and I always point here because the heart of our Spirit is in our stomach, 12:52.190 --> 12:53.970 according to Proverbs. It's right here. 12:55.130 --> 12:56.690 This is where it wells up from. 12:57.790 --> 13:00.750 When you're interceding, this is where it comes from. 13:00.810 --> 13:02.390 It doesn't come from between your ears. 13:02.390 --> 13:05.770 It will well up from inside of you. 13:06.570 --> 13:09.430 Many times intercession can feel like dry heaves. 13:09.650 --> 13:13.850 The best way I can describe it is just heaving out of your Spirit, 13:14.850 --> 13:15.930 letting it go. 13:17.250 --> 13:21.930 The intensity of what will well up when we're facing these dead-end situations 13:21.930 --> 13:26.750 that refuse to move will be an intensity like it's life or death, 13:28.030 --> 13:29.450 because sometimes it is. 13:30.710 --> 13:35.170 But you're sensing the intensity of the Holy Spirit on this thing. 13:36.030 --> 13:38.530 He wants your answer more than you want it. 13:39.790 --> 13:42.910 And he's more intense on it than you are. 13:43.490 --> 13:48.110 So when he erupts into this inside of you, follow it. 13:52.510 --> 13:55.250 Your volume can go one or two directions. 13:56.150 --> 14:04.470 It will be almost like a puking out of the intensity of the Spirit 14:04.470 --> 14:06.310 addressing this situation. 14:06.910 --> 14:09.150 Your volume physically engaged. 14:09.330 --> 14:11.290 Your physical volume can go up, 14:11.510 --> 14:14.750 or sometimes it goes down to almost a squeak, 14:14.770 --> 14:16.290 because you just can't get anything out. 14:17.890 --> 14:20.530 Your physical body will want to engage. 14:22.690 --> 14:30.150 There's been times it's like I'm fighting an invisible foe in the physical. 14:31.830 --> 14:36.490 It is, you will bow. 14:38.410 --> 14:39.770 You say, well, do you have to do that? 14:40.010 --> 14:41.450 Do you want your answer or don't you? 14:42.410 --> 14:48.350 This is an effectual, fervent crying out for life or death. 14:49.350 --> 14:54.150 The attitude is either I get this or I quit, I die. 14:55.690 --> 14:57.850 And it may not be a physical issue. 14:57.970 --> 14:59.150 It may be a financial issue. 14:59.310 --> 15:01.750 It might be a whatever issue. 15:02.390 --> 15:04.390 That's the intensity of it, though. 15:04.970 --> 15:05.830 It's how it comes out. 15:07.210 --> 15:13.850 Let your body posture and your involvement get engaged, get involved. 15:14.450 --> 15:17.030 It will be a cry of desperation. 15:17.030 --> 15:19.650 It's not going to be a pronouncement of faith. 15:20.050 --> 15:21.310 It's not going to be a prophecy. 15:21.510 --> 15:22.850 Why call this into being? 15:23.370 --> 15:29.530 It is a child, a son, a daughter of God before the throne, 15:32.750 --> 15:38.150 pleading, crying out to the only one who can change this. 15:39.910 --> 15:44.270 And if he doesn't, I don't want to go on. 15:45.510 --> 15:48.730 That's the intensity it comes out with. 15:51.130 --> 15:52.810 We're approaching the throne. 15:53.550 --> 15:54.510 Now, interesting. 15:55.530 --> 15:58.470 You might not have looked this up, so I'll just give it to you for free. 15:58.810 --> 16:02.430 With Hebrews 4.16, we come before the throne boldly. 16:02.650 --> 16:04.150 You know what that word boldly means? 16:04.890 --> 16:06.450 Not what we usually think. 16:07.510 --> 16:11.270 It means all outspokenness. 16:12.390 --> 16:15.450 That is frankness and bluntness. 16:17.770 --> 16:20.590 You're coming dumping it all. 16:22.030 --> 16:24.250 You're not worrying about sounding nice. 16:24.410 --> 16:26.150 You're not worrying about picking the right words. 16:26.510 --> 16:30.730 You are just bluntly dumping your load. 16:33.870 --> 16:36.190 That's coming before the throne boldly. 16:39.220 --> 16:41.100 If sin gets in the way, 16:41.100 --> 16:43.980 because obviously the spirit realm, 16:44.100 --> 16:46.400 the negative spirit realm is going to try to stop you from doing this. 16:47.360 --> 16:49.680 And if sin pops thought in your mind, 16:50.980 --> 16:53.040 sin thoughts pop in your mind. 16:55.100 --> 16:56.020 Deal with it. 16:57.120 --> 16:59.000 Do not shrink back at that. 16:59.140 --> 17:00.760 Well, I'm probably not worthy. 17:02.580 --> 17:04.200 Do you know nothing about Scripture? 17:04.460 --> 17:05.340 Confess your sins. 17:05.480 --> 17:07.860 He is faithful and just to forgive you 17:07.860 --> 17:10.300 and to cleanse you 17:10.300 --> 17:12.360 from all unrighteousness. 17:12.780 --> 17:15.340 Whatever pops in, confess it, 17:15.720 --> 17:18.140 repent of it, deal with it and move on. 17:19.300 --> 17:20.700 And that's a rule for life. 17:20.860 --> 17:24.380 If we as Christians can't learn to do spiritual warfare 17:24.380 --> 17:25.560 effectively enough, 17:26.060 --> 17:28.680 that all the devil has to do is just say 17:28.680 --> 17:29.620 remember what you did 17:30.580 --> 17:32.240 and it shuts us down. 17:32.920 --> 17:34.160 We'll accomplish nothing. 17:35.280 --> 17:36.880 Yeah, I remember what I did. 17:37.540 --> 17:39.360 And I also remember who paid for it. 17:40.080 --> 17:41.320 And I was wrong. 17:41.580 --> 17:42.300 And I'm sorry. 17:42.880 --> 17:43.220 Forgive me. 17:43.740 --> 17:47.660 But I am not going to be deterred from my answer. 17:48.560 --> 17:50.500 And sometimes they just flood in. 17:50.780 --> 17:53.400 Well, you got a lot of sin crap you never dealt with. 17:53.720 --> 17:55.820 Deal with it right there, right now. 17:57.300 --> 17:58.540 Do not go on. 17:59.720 --> 18:01.380 Well, I'll just come back a different day 18:01.380 --> 18:02.240 when I'm more ready. 18:02.640 --> 18:03.720 You're ready right now. 18:03.860 --> 18:05.500 That's why it's rising up in you. 18:06.760 --> 18:07.720 Deal with it now. 18:07.720 --> 18:09.800 Condemnation, unworthiness, the whole thing. 18:10.480 --> 18:11.480 The same thing. 18:11.860 --> 18:14.200 But you have to allow yourself 18:14.200 --> 18:17.980 to give the Holy Spirit in you 18:18.580 --> 18:24.260 full mental, emotional, physical release. 18:26.000 --> 18:27.420 You have to. 18:27.720 --> 18:30.060 If you don't learn to pray that way 18:30.560 --> 18:32.820 whatever your obstacle is will take you out. 18:34.220 --> 18:36.100 There are some things 18:37.080 --> 18:39.980 will not kneel or get out of our life 18:40.840 --> 18:43.020 until we get over our hangups. 18:45.080 --> 18:47.500 Well, it makes me, I'm not that kind of personality. 18:48.940 --> 18:49.960 Well, go ahead and die. 18:52.360 --> 18:53.380 Go ahead and go broke. 18:54.100 --> 18:55.020 Go ahead and lose your marriage. 18:59.440 --> 19:01.700 See, at some point we have to step up 19:01.700 --> 19:03.700 and say, well, maybe my personality is wrong. 19:05.800 --> 19:07.600 Maybe I was damaged in an area. 19:07.600 --> 19:10.560 Maybe I'm just fearful or shy 19:10.960 --> 19:12.660 which is a form of fear or whatever. 19:13.640 --> 19:14.900 I don't like to do that. 19:14.980 --> 19:17.240 When this happens to me and I sense it coming 19:17.240 --> 19:19.080 I'll find a place to get alone. 19:19.340 --> 19:21.560 I don't like to be a public display 19:21.560 --> 19:24.200 of whatever God is doing in my life. 19:24.680 --> 19:25.480 I'll get alone. 19:26.080 --> 19:27.400 But you'll sense it coming. 19:27.560 --> 19:28.980 First time it might sneak up on you. 19:29.920 --> 19:31.560 But then God is usually gracious 19:31.560 --> 19:34.100 and you'll be alone if you're that kind of person. 19:38.040 --> 19:41.260 I don't like to hang my stuff out in front of people. 19:42.900 --> 19:44.480 But when it's me and him 19:45.640 --> 19:47.380 whatever these feelings are 19:47.380 --> 19:49.980 I feel so, this feels so odd. 19:50.240 --> 19:50.860 I'm uncomfortable. 19:51.360 --> 19:52.480 I hope nobody's watching. 19:54.320 --> 19:55.840 You need to get over yourself. 19:56.620 --> 19:57.940 If you want your answer, 19:58.200 --> 19:59.660 you need to get over yourself 20:02.920 --> 20:04.120 and let her blow. 20:05.140 --> 20:06.420 Because if you don't 20:08.520 --> 20:09.920 if I was a betting man 20:09.920 --> 20:11.600 I'd put everything I got on the side. 20:11.740 --> 20:12.720 Yeah, they'll never get their answer. 20:13.840 --> 20:14.640 They're pride. 20:14.960 --> 20:15.480 They're shame. 20:16.440 --> 20:17.240 They're insecurity. 20:18.400 --> 20:19.160 The personality. 20:19.440 --> 20:20.620 They've nurtured all their life. 20:20.780 --> 20:21.980 If you didn't like the way you were 20:21.980 --> 20:22.940 you wouldn't be that way. 20:23.240 --> 20:24.100 You've nurtured this. 20:24.240 --> 20:26.080 You like who you are in your personality. 20:26.300 --> 20:27.820 So that's why you've kept it that way. 20:29.060 --> 20:30.360 What you've nurtured all your life. 20:30.480 --> 20:34.560 All this stuff is going to take your answer away. 20:36.760 --> 20:38.640 There comes a point where God says 20:38.640 --> 20:39.720 I want all of you. 20:40.940 --> 20:42.340 Including your personality. 20:43.360 --> 20:43.620 Correct. 20:44.260 --> 20:44.960 I want it all. 20:45.480 --> 20:46.540 Oh God, I give you all 20:46.540 --> 20:48.580 but just don't make me raise my hands in public 20:48.580 --> 20:49.900 well then he don't have you all. 20:51.180 --> 20:54.120 Oh God, just don't ever let me have to pray in public 20:54.120 --> 20:55.720 then he doesn't have all of you. 20:59.320 --> 21:01.460 And those things that he doesn't have 21:01.460 --> 21:03.500 can actually stop the answer from coming through. 21:04.240 --> 21:06.540 So whoever this is talking to 21:09.040 --> 21:12.320 I'm going to pray for whoever these person or people are 21:12.960 --> 21:16.080 and God's going to start churning in your spirit 21:16.080 --> 21:18.160 and this is going to take place. 21:18.360 --> 21:20.280 When it does you go before the throne 21:20.280 --> 21:21.780 like it's life and death 21:21.780 --> 21:24.020 if it's a physical problem it could be life and death. 21:26.970 --> 21:29.710 And you let God 21:30.550 --> 21:32.090 specifically the Holy Spirit 21:32.090 --> 21:34.370 be God in you. 21:34.950 --> 21:37.730 And you just pour it out 21:37.730 --> 21:40.830 be blunt, be open with God 21:40.830 --> 21:43.230 let your body get involved. 21:43.410 --> 21:44.870 Remember in the Old Testament 21:44.870 --> 21:46.390 the king that lost his kingdom 21:46.390 --> 21:48.990 because he did not take the arrows 21:48.990 --> 21:51.190 and hit the ground with enough intensity? 21:57.400 --> 22:00.080 God was looking for him to look like a madman. 22:00.380 --> 22:01.460 And of course he's a king 22:01.460 --> 22:03.740 so he's got probably servants there 22:03.740 --> 22:05.340 he's probably got guard there 22:05.340 --> 22:07.020 it wasn't just him and the prophet 22:07.020 --> 22:08.560 he had people there 22:08.560 --> 22:10.220 and he probably had 22:10.220 --> 22:11.540 well I don't want to look stupid 22:12.280 --> 22:13.500 so I'll just 22:14.660 --> 22:16.020 three times you hit the ground 22:17.060 --> 22:18.960 the prophet said that's too bad 22:18.960 --> 22:20.980 because now you're not going to get your answer. 22:22.580 --> 22:24.360 You did not engage the way 22:24.360 --> 22:25.900 you needed to engage physically 22:27.600 --> 22:29.000 and it's not just the 22:29.000 --> 22:30.480 well would physical things 22:30.480 --> 22:31.420 make that big a difference? 22:31.640 --> 22:33.160 No, there's always a reason 22:33.160 --> 22:34.820 we don't go there. 22:35.660 --> 22:37.540 Could be shame, could be pride 22:37.540 --> 22:39.640 could be fear, could be 22:40.840 --> 22:42.160 insecurities, could be whatever 22:42.160 --> 22:43.780 there's something in us 22:43.780 --> 22:45.480 that God doesn't have yet 22:47.060 --> 22:48.540 and when he says 22:48.540 --> 22:50.200 you need to do it 22:50.200 --> 22:51.620 and we go 22:52.160 --> 22:53.020 I don't want to 22:53.020 --> 22:54.140 I don't think I will 22:54.140 --> 22:56.120 our answer walks out the door 22:56.120 --> 22:56.900 with that statement 22:57.680 --> 22:59.240 because he doesn't have all of us. 23:00.180 --> 23:01.920 So father in the name of Jesus 23:01.920 --> 23:04.180 I'm praying for whoever this is 23:04.920 --> 23:07.120 I've given words enough 23:07.120 --> 23:09.180 you can teach them from here 23:09.180 --> 23:10.060 by your spirit. 23:11.660 --> 23:13.600 In Jesus name 23:14.520 --> 23:16.680 I call the stirring 23:16.680 --> 23:18.280 to begin to take place 23:18.280 --> 23:19.420 in their spirits. 23:20.680 --> 23:22.720 I call the intensity of their 23:22.720 --> 23:25.120 desperation of their longing 23:25.120 --> 23:27.020 of the cries of their heart 23:27.740 --> 23:28.460 to grow 23:29.460 --> 23:31.680 and bring it to that point 23:31.680 --> 23:33.740 where there is an explosion 23:33.740 --> 23:35.580 inside of them 23:35.580 --> 23:37.180 that cries out 23:37.180 --> 23:39.300 this is not scriptural 23:39.300 --> 23:41.240 this is not my God 23:41.240 --> 23:43.060 this is not right 23:43.060 --> 23:46.280 and I will not go on 23:46.280 --> 23:47.380 until this change 23:47.380 --> 23:48.660 I'd rather die 23:49.250 --> 23:52.580 it becomes that intense in them. 23:54.120 --> 23:55.660 And then I pray 23:55.660 --> 23:56.760 they give voice 23:56.760 --> 23:58.340 they give physical movement 23:58.340 --> 23:59.920 they give emotion to it 23:59.920 --> 24:01.580 they engage with 24:01.580 --> 24:03.560 what is trying to spill out 24:04.580 --> 24:06.540 they engage with it once 24:06.540 --> 24:09.240 twice however often Holy Spirit 24:09.760 --> 24:11.820 you cause it to boil up 24:13.260 --> 24:14.760 but also I pray 24:14.760 --> 24:16.160 they don't try to make it up 24:18.520 --> 24:19.720 try to work it up 24:21.740 --> 24:23.180 this will happen 24:25.700 --> 24:31.900 This has already tried to happen with a number of you, and you've, you've emotionally, you've 24:31.900 --> 24:39.480 mentally squeezed it down and stopped it. Give this thing voice and movement in Jesus' name, 24:39.800 --> 24:48.170 and you will have your answer. You want to add something to that? I wasn't intending this 24:48.170 --> 24:52.470 to become the message this morning, but at the same token we got to finish it. 24:52.470 --> 24:58.290 I do feel like there are people's lives hanging in the bounce, so it is really important for 24:58.290 --> 25:02.830 those of you watching online and here. There's something else that takes place that only the 25:02.830 --> 25:09.190 Holy Spirit can deal with, and that is when you go flatline. And I'm very aware that 25:09.190 --> 25:13.330 there's people in this house this morning that have gone flatline. A flatline means 25:13.330 --> 25:19.630 I've cried about it too often, too much, too hard in my soul. You know, you can 25:19.630 --> 25:24.570 cry and cry and cry in your soul, but it's a difference when the Holy Spirit 25:24.570 --> 25:29.590 prays through you and cries. He's purifying you. When you cry in your soul, 25:29.730 --> 25:34.670 you're just venting out emotion. And what happens when you do that over and 25:34.670 --> 25:40.230 over, the brain itself will say, this is too much, we've gone too far, it's 25:40.230 --> 25:48.110 too little, it's too late, and you literally will not be able to feel. And so 25:48.110 --> 25:53.930 then this will sound like, oh, all work. It's all work. When the Holy Spirit came 25:53.930 --> 25:59.170 upon them in Acts chapter 1 and 2, when it describes that, He diffused them 25:59.170 --> 26:03.630 throughout their souls. So the main thing we're asking for is Holy Spirit to 26:03.630 --> 26:07.090 pray through us. When we do not know how to pray as we ought, we talked about 26:07.090 --> 26:11.690 this in prayer this morning, the Holy Spirit prays through us. It doesn't 26:11.690 --> 26:15.590 matter if I have feeling or I don't have feeling, I make a choice to say, God 26:15.590 --> 26:21.910 pray through me. I got nothing, I'm flat line. I don't even know if I could cry 26:21.910 --> 26:28.590 about the situation anymore. I don't even know if I care anymore. It is what it is, 26:28.670 --> 26:33.830 right? And so to get rid of flat line, and I've been there, we've all been there 26:33.830 --> 26:39.830 at some time or whatever. And so I ask Holy Spirit to pray through me. And you 26:39.830 --> 26:43.750 will start out, like we talked about in prayer, it'll just sound like you're 26:43.750 --> 26:47.270 Babylon. That's why it's important that you have the baptism of the Holy Spirit 26:47.270 --> 26:52.410 because he is fire. He's ability, efficiency, and might praying through you. 26:52.690 --> 26:55.390 But you don't know how to pray as you are. You don't even know what to say 26:55.390 --> 27:00.430 anymore. But it'll start out, I don't know, I'm praying in the 27:00.430 --> 27:06.790 spirit. I don't feel nothing. Stay praying in the spirit until you feel 27:06.790 --> 27:11.110 what he feels. You don't have feelings about yourself anymore. It's been too 27:11.110 --> 27:16.770 much. You shut it down. You're looking to feel what he feels. It'll come up out of 27:16.770 --> 27:20.710 your spirit. And he will pray through you. Next thing you know, there's a lot of 27:20.710 --> 27:24.410 emotion there. But it's different than your emotions where you feel sorry for 27:24.410 --> 27:27.510 yourself or you've come to the end of yourself or you just don't know what 27:27.510 --> 27:33.530 to do anymore. And your flat line, it will come up. And you will begin to 27:33.530 --> 27:39.790 pray. This is why if I asked you to come with me and we go to a 27:39.790 --> 27:45.590 hospital, let's take it off of ourselves. And I'm like, there's someone in there 27:45.590 --> 27:48.670 that's looking at getting surgery or whatever, you don't know them. But let's 27:48.670 --> 27:51.990 just go stand by them and have a prayer of agreement. Most people's prayers of 27:51.990 --> 27:56.430 agreement, whoever's praying will pray and they'll go, yes, Lord, amen. Yes. And 27:56.430 --> 28:00.290 then we just leave the hospital room. What if that person needs more than 28:00.290 --> 28:05.670 that? Yeah. A lot of times they need way more than that. You ain't got, 28:05.790 --> 28:09.630 you're not emotionally attached to them. You don't have any feelings so 28:09.630 --> 28:13.050 how can I pray out of feelings? So I'm praying factual or I'll pray the word. Now, 28:13.130 --> 28:17.390 the word has its own inherent power and it'll go in and divide sickness away 28:17.390 --> 28:20.850 from the body. We have its own inherent power. It'll get in. There's 28:20.850 --> 28:24.930 power packed because Jesus says the word. But you add the Holy Spirit 28:24.930 --> 28:29.330 praying through you and then you're saying the word. Now, that's 28:29.330 --> 28:35.370 resurrection power. When we're flatline, we have to be resurrected. We 28:35.370 --> 28:38.690 might not even necessarily, I'm using the hospital thing as if you're 28:38.690 --> 28:41.850 praying for somebody else. You don't feel what they're feeling. You're not 28:41.850 --> 28:46.050 seeing the impact of what they're about to go through. So you don't have 28:46.050 --> 28:52.510 all that. But when the Holy Spirit prays for you, you'll feel what He 28:52.510 --> 28:58.870 feels about them. And that gives you hang time and prayer. I went to a 28:58.870 --> 29:01.790 man's house that I didn't even know. And I thought, I don't know 29:01.790 --> 29:06.510 this guy who's suffering cancer and everything. And the people were 29:06.510 --> 29:09.130 crying and all that. And I thought, I don't want to get involved in that 29:09.130 --> 29:13.210 part of it because I don't want to be in unbelief. But I ended up 29:13.210 --> 29:16.910 going to his room and just sitting there with them and just asking 29:16.910 --> 29:19.970 Holy Spirit. I'm like, I don't have anything. I'm just here 29:19.970 --> 29:24.410 because I'm faithful servant of God. I don't have anything. I 29:24.410 --> 29:28.910 know what the word says and I can go ahead and do that. But 29:28.910 --> 29:35.250 I will deal with this a little bit. But when I went over and 29:35.250 --> 29:39.770 started praying under my breath first, Holy Spirit, what do you 29:39.770 --> 29:42.270 have to say about this? And then I began to pray in the 29:42.270 --> 29:47.350 spirit. I felt what his family felt. I felt what he was 29:47.350 --> 29:51.710 feeling. I literally, it literally caused me to crawl 29:51.710 --> 29:55.950 right up on the bed with him and just stroke his hair and 29:55.950 --> 30:00.950 whisper in his ear and speak life into his body. I don't have 30:00.950 --> 30:04.650 any feelings when I showed up there. Sad situation. I'm not 30:04.650 --> 30:09.970 attached to it. Suddenly it was like I knew him all my life. But 30:09.970 --> 30:13.030 if you are flat line about yourself, you're not going to 30:13.030 --> 30:19.110 show up for yourself. You have to let the Holy Spirit 30:19.110 --> 30:22.850 pray through. That's why in prayer many times people will 30:22.850 --> 30:25.950 label me like, oh, there she goes being loud again or 30:25.950 --> 30:27.970 whatever. I don't do that all the time, but if Holy 30:27.970 --> 30:30.010 Spirit does that through me, we're going to go there. 30:31.710 --> 30:37.690 Warfare sounds like that. Traveil sounds like that. We can't 30:37.690 --> 30:42.110 pretend and stay just always one emotion, always one thing. 30:42.410 --> 30:45.090 Holy Spirit's not like that. He's efficient when he does 30:45.090 --> 30:49.370 something and he gets it done and and he decrees it 30:49.370 --> 30:51.770 through us. He declares it through. We might not feel 30:51.770 --> 30:57.850 any of that till we begin to pray in the spirit. So 30:57.850 --> 31:00.910 anybody here that you know you're flat line in a 31:00.910 --> 31:04.630 certain area, you're just like, I don't even. Yeah, see, thank you 31:04.630 --> 31:09.190 for being honest. Thank you for being honest. So part of 31:09.190 --> 31:12.190 being flat line is also going to another level by the way 31:12.190 --> 31:16.190 that just says, well, it is what it is. Bring it in. I 31:16.190 --> 31:17.070 got nothing to say to it. 31:20.070 --> 31:22.390 We'll see what happens. I never want to see what 31:22.390 --> 31:25.890 happens. I want to know what he says is going to 31:25.890 --> 31:29.630 happen. And I will declare that how it manifests is up to 31:29.630 --> 31:33.450 him. We can't predict that. But righteousness is going to 31:33.450 --> 31:37.910 prevail over unrighteous things. See how I'm feeling the 31:37.910 --> 31:41.030 Holy Spirit right now? This is not my personality, by 31:41.030 --> 31:45.490 the way. This is me feeling Holy Spirit and 31:45.490 --> 31:48.170 something that is unrighteous. You have to call a 31:48.170 --> 31:50.470 spade a spade and speak to that thing and say, 31:50.530 --> 31:54.830 enough is enough. And then you can go into the 31:54.830 --> 31:57.830 flesh and want to duke it out with that. No, you go into 31:57.830 --> 32:00.890 the spirit. See what he has to say about that. Or the 32:00.890 --> 32:04.090 emotions. Don't go into the emotions. The emotions will 32:04.090 --> 32:07.430 engage after the spirit, but don't engage in 32:07.430 --> 32:10.550 emotion thinking that's the spirit. Now, if you have all 32:10.550 --> 32:12.650 kinds of pent up emotion and you've been flat 32:12.650 --> 32:15.510 line and you need to let that out. Okay, separate it in 32:15.510 --> 32:17.450 your mind like, just give me a minute, God, because I'm 32:17.450 --> 32:21.930 going to let this all out. Cry it out. Just be like, 32:21.930 --> 32:25.490 you know, let it out. Get it out of you. And then come 32:25.490 --> 32:29.270 back and say, no, you say what needs to say. You know, 32:29.290 --> 32:32.730 because we've been stuffing many times for far too 32:32.730 --> 32:36.590 long. That's what causes us to cap it off. The brain 32:36.590 --> 32:39.730 actually, your physical brain says this is far too 32:39.730 --> 32:42.790 much information. It's taken up too much space, time, 32:42.810 --> 32:45.850 and energy. We're just going to shut it down. And 32:45.850 --> 32:48.390 then faith cannot do anything with it. 32:49.630 --> 32:53.850 All right, you can take the mic back with you. This is 32:53.850 --> 32:56.370 not a prayer line thing. This is a you personally with 32:56.370 --> 33:01.790 God thing. If you're baptized in the Holy Spirit and 33:01.790 --> 33:04.230 you're facing a dead end, the Holy Spirit already tried 33:04.230 --> 33:09.050 to lead you into this. If you didn't go there, well, 33:09.070 --> 33:11.610 then something shut it down. If you're not baptized in 33:11.610 --> 33:13.850 the Holy Spirit, this might be all news to you and I 33:13.850 --> 33:17.170 would recommend what Jesus recommended. Get baptized 33:17.170 --> 33:21.630 with the Holy Spirit. More than what you got at 33:21.630 --> 33:23.550 salvation because there's that teaching. Well, I was 33:23.550 --> 33:27.510 baptized when I was saved. Do you speak in tongues? Because 33:27.510 --> 33:33.200 that's what Jesus was talking about. If you don't, 33:33.420 --> 33:40.120 you don't got it. Just call it what it is. So, yes, 33:40.340 --> 33:42.240 some of you need to go there. You need to engage. 33:42.420 --> 33:46.160 Let the Holy Spirit do what he's going to do. And it 33:46.160 --> 33:49.280 will change everything. If you don't, well, whatever is 33:49.280 --> 33:57.070 consuming you will probably destroy you. I just feel 33:57.070 --> 33:58.690 it needs to be said that bluntly.
