I want to talk to you from the subject
faith is a perspective if we only define
faith as the substance of things hoped
for and the evidence of things not seen
what does that really mean in a day to
day life how’s your faith working in
your life or has Church to become a
habit I want to tell you in your soul in
your heart in your life faith lives in
there but it doesn’t live alone there’s
a whole community around your faith so
and I don’t care how faith filled you
are your faith is not holding down that
block by itself right across the street
is brother doubt and down on the corner
is sister fear and then three doors down
is sister anxiety and depression lives
over the garage she’s got a small
apartment over there oh all of them live
in the community of faith every person
in this room has some level of doubts
every person is room has some level of
fear every person in this room has
served some level of anxiety every
person in this room has to fight some
level of depression all of that stuff
lives in the neighborhood and the people
of what happens that day what you read
what you heard what you confronted how
you react to that our goal as we preach
the Word of God to you is to gradually
rat gradually reject refer Kate the
neighborhood until faith begins to
dominate and take control over the
neighborhood one house at a time we are
take
over the community till you start
walking by faith talking about faith
living by faith thinking by faith
raising your family by faith doing
business by faith faced and adversities
about faith trusting in God and I don’t
care what else you do you can see and
you can cry until your face looks like a
rainbow but if you don’t have face when
you get to cry isn’t do anything at all
you have to possess faith in your soul
and if there’s one thing that the devil
is constantly after constantly after
he’s after your faith
Oh bless his name he’s after your faith
I’ve heard people say the devil trying
to get my car and the devil after my
habits and the Devils
after my boy he’s favoring the Devils
after my marriage didn’t ever go walk
your husband
what is the devil there was your car
didn’t ever that want your house well
why don’t he attack all of this stuff he
attacks that stuff to get to your faith
everything that the enemy is attacking
in your life right now he is attacking
to get your faith your faith is a
valuable commodity your faith moves god
your face shakes heaven your faith
forgets the devil your face reboots
diseases your face gives you courage
your faith gives you confidence your
face reaches in the spirit your face
snatches the promises your face embraces
the word of God it is your same
is there anybody in here that’s got
faith
I need 16 men up here now you got me
framed in through faith we understand
that the worlds were framed by the Word
of God okay I can’t go but so far cuz
you got me framed in
that I would do I can’t do cuz they got
me framed there I can’t get out of
control cuz she got me framed cuz you
got me framed in trust me people tell
them I’ve been framed in God said I got
you framed in I don’t care what season
it is
I don’t care what stage of life here you
can be at the beginning of your life you
can be in the winter of your life he
said I took all of that in consideration
when I said let that be it was my word
is eternal because I am eternal and I
got you framed in able worship by faith
Enoch walked by faith Noah being warned
of God of things not yet seen moved with
fear building an ark to the saving of
his house no I’ll work by faith Abel
worship my face inna
walk by faith no work by faith work by
same work by faith
you got a work by saying tell you they
be you got to work by faith you got to
work that thing you got to work it if
you walk out of here back
is cuz you wanna be there’s enough word
in here right now
[Applause]
while did what you believe Wow did what
you believed this morning I want to talk
about faith is an equalizer faith ears
and equalizer faith ears and equalizer
when you read Hebrews 11 and you read
all the way down to the eleventh chapter
the book a Hebrews everything it says
over and over by faith by faith by faith
faith was the equipment that they use
irrespective of gender irrespective of
age irrespective of where they were in
civilization or technology or
circumstance or whatever was going on in
their parameters whether they were in
conflict or in war it will always boil
down to faith it boils down to faith it
boils down to faith it boils down to
faith what is your philosophy I’m going
to talk about what you’re supposed to
believe you’re good at quoting what
you’re supposed to believe I’m talking
about what do you really believe you
don’t know what you really believe till
you get in trouble when you get in
trouble your real values and your real
ethics begin to come out when you’re in
trouble and if you don’t understand that
you’re gonna miss a whole lot now there
was a statement that I made previously
and I want to build on it today I began
to talk about Abel offered up the Bible
says that Abel offered up a more
excellent sacrifice than Cain hence we
understand that Abel worshiped by faith
even walked by faith the Bible said in
it what with God and was not but he left
this testimony that he pleased God and
Noah worked by faith so where we’re
gonna start in understanding is to begin
to understand what it means to worship
by faith what does that mean
what does that mean to worship by faith
what does that mean to worship by faith
because most people worshiped by
feelings
if the feeling gets right if the
emotions are right if you’re in the
right stage of your life if you feel
like worshiping you worship but God
doesn’t want you to worship my feelings
he wants you to worship by faith because
if he wants it by feelings people who
have less access to their emotions feel
less committed to worship they’ll tell
you that’s just not how I am I’m not
that way I’m just a quiet person
I’m not worried like that this is not
about wiring this is not about feelings
this is not about you it’s not about
what you feel like doing it’s not about
what you want to do it is about how God
wants to be worship how he wants to be
handled and so in order to worship my
faith you must be submissive enough to
submit your will to his will and if
you’re not willing to submit your will
to his will are you really a disciple
and I know you go to church I know you
go to church but are you really a
disciple I want you to know that church
existed before we called it church
christianity existed before we called it
christianity but from the earliest days
the one thing that they call all of the
followers of Jesus Christ was believers
because they were known for their faith
I want to ask you a question for having
long you’ve been saved
are you known for your faith on your job
in your community amongst your family
are you known for your faith or your
temper are you known for your faith or
your talent are you known for your faith
or your attitude are you known for your
faith if you’re not known for your faith
are you really a believer are you known
for your singing are you don’t for your
dancing are you known for your preachers
I don’t care about your gift at the end
of the day
you can’t fight the devil with your
voice you know why it wouldn’t be fair
to fight the devil with your voice cuz
April can sing better than me when she
could fight the devil off singing like
that if it were by voice then it
wouldn’t be fair because God did not
give me it’s much voice as he gave you
that every time I got in trouble I would
have to call you cuz you have better
equipment than me come on somebody she
could hit notes that I can’t I can’t
even get him in my head to hear so if it
were by talents then the God would not
be just because he would be asking me
for something that he didn’t give me
come on somebody but if it’s my fate
well we’re interested all guards y’all
here over there I’m getting ahead of
myself I’m getting excited you don’t get
something out of this touch them and say
you don’t get something out of this I
want you to look at Romans twelve and
three we’re gonna look at Romans 12 and
three you gotta move fast cuz I got a
long ways to go short time to get there
but Romans 12:1 says for I say through
the grace given unto me to every man
that is among you how many men every man
that is among you not to think of
himself more highly than he ought not
that’s a sermon right there
good God if I stay I could stay there
all day not to think of himself more
highly than he ought to think but to
think soberly soberly so what does it
mean to be sober it’s the opposite of
being drunk what does being drunk mean
to be intoxicated by outside influence
are you intoxicated by outside influence
because whether you have a drink or not
according to God you are
when you allow outside things to
influence how you are inside you are not
sober you are intoxicated you are
enumerated by your own pain by your own
past by your own beauty whatever it is
that’s affecting your feelings and
affecting your attitude that’s coming
from the outside has got you drunk touch
your neighbor and say sober up because
in order to approach God you have to be
sober then that means sad I’m sober
right now but I’m not sad I know I’m
sober because I have not allowed outside
influences to affect my behavior so the
Bible says soberly are you sober
according as God has dealt to some men
or you know and if don’t have my glasses
do to the preachers to the people who
can sing to black folks to rich folks to
Latino folks to white folks away
whenever getting right to short people
to tall people to handsome people to fat
people to everyman this is the one thing
that God has made sure every man has he
has dealt unto him the measure of faith
so you cannot say to God I didn’t get
saved cuz I didn’t have it you cannot
say to God I didn’t live on top of my
circumstances because you asked me for
something that you didn’t give me you
have enough faith to get out of this if
you will use it I’m not talking to y’all
y’all sleep
you have enough faith to get out of this
if you’ll use it you don’t need to call
me they didn’t give me let me try you
don’t need to call me my line might be
busy I might be in a bad mood I might
not be walking in victory that day you
don’t need to call the Pope you don’t
need to call anybody else you all you
gotta do is call Jesus because God I got
the same I got the face of myself got
the fame somebody I got the phrase
somebody say I got the fame somebody I
got the fame somebody I got the fame now
I haven’t something and using it are two
different things
oh you know Bishop just got such faith
he’s a great man of faith and power
really how you know how you know can you
see my face no you can’t see my face you
think I’ve got more faith in you
absolutely not I don’t know who you are
because you can’t see that far but young
man right there with the baby yeah I
know you gonna faint coz I called you
put your the spot yeah but come up here
for me to come up here come up here
yeah come up here come up here and just
stand right beside me how you doing tell
me your name hey Jeff how’s it going
Jess I brought some here cuz I like this
book oh yeah everything
we cool see now I really brought him up
here because Jeff is so small in
comparison to me it does not look like
he would have as many muscles as I do
let me put it this way if we was gonna
arm wrestle you was gonna put $100 down
would you put it on me there
he said he said he would put his hundred
dollars off me okay let’s see there you
know that that’s you know that’s good
truth of the matter is I don’t have one
more muscle than he does not one more
muscle the difference in our muscle tone
is how we worked it ain’t saying you
don’t work out and you look good pose oh
I got the right guy here today I got the
right one I’m here today I said oh no I
knew who to get see and thank you that’s
all if I could put you on the spot
before did he do big give him big around
now my I think I didn’t manage your arms
but I think my arms are bigger than
Jeff’s not because they have more muscle
but they’ve had to carry more weight
the more weight your faith has to carry
the bigger your faith is going to get is
you are by faith your faith is gonna
swell up to meet the challenge that you
have in your life right now do you hear
what I’m saying because God have dealt
to me and just the same amount of
muscles the same amount of faith the
same amount of blood the same amount of
opportunity the only difference between
me and death is what we choose to do
with what we have been given he woke up
this morning I woke up this morning he
got two eyes I got two eyes he got two
legs I got to lace the rest of it is up
to us what we choose to do how
intellectual we become we got the same
brain and it’s not it’s not his fault
that he’s smarter than me he just did
more with what he has been given so stop
complaining about who’s fighting you and
who doesn’t like you and who doesn’t
support you don’t blame me because she
didn’t use what you have been given it
is your fault and until you take
responsibility for what you did you
cannot change your circumstance it’s not
the black man is not the white man it’s
not the devil is not President Obama it
is new
now prayed my strength in the Lord God
and dumped it is this good
now I’m gonna taste I’m gonna go to
first Corinthians 13 we got a common
power in faith and we got a common
dilemma in this world
1st Corinthians 10:13 there have no no
temptation not one temptation not one
that little temptation that you’ve got
that you don’t think that nobody else in
the world has it but you you will freaks
out
[Applause]
and didn’t take my medication this
morning I was in a hurry and a
restaurant a house I forgot to take it
has taken you but such as is common to
man but God is faithful who will not
suffer you to be tempted above that ye
are able but will with not after wit not
after which the temptation also make a
way of escape that means if there’s a
temptation there’s a way out if there’s
a prison there’s a door out at the same
time what is made the other one is made
if you fell in it you just wanted to
[Applause]
what I’m trying to do is is level the
playing floor so that you understand our
temptations are common and our faith is
common now once we get down to that
level but there is not there’s no such
thing as you having a special problem
there are no special problems everybody
got to say her stuff there’s no
temptation taken you but such as is
common to man there is no temptation
taken you but such as is common to man
God is faithful who will not suffer you
to be tempted above that which you are
able but will what I love is to read
that emphasize that with the temptation
also make a way of escape
it lets me know that God does not allow
anything to be created without a door
you can get out stop playing with your
head you can get it I just love it I
take it you can you hear what I’m saying
I can’t help it I just can’t help it I
can’t live without Sally
if silent can live without you I said if
Sally heavenly all she got to do is show
me that she’s cool without me
[Applause]
now you won’t die I might die with you
but when I see you still breathing the
devil is alive will with the temptation
also make a way of escape
if you got a problem you don’t have to
pray wishing there was an answer
the very fact that you’ve got a problem
is a sign that there is good God
Almighty that’s subtle should know as
something to know right there so I want
you to understand the calmness of the
dilemma and I want to deal with this a
little bit more I want to cuz I want to
make sure you get this all of us have a
story things that happen to us in life
and and their personal and their deep
and they have consequences and the
consequences feel unique and as long as
the consequences feel you’ll each it
almost gives you a visa not to recover
you got a passport not to get better
because look at what happened to me
never understanding that something
similar happen to him something like
that happen to her and three rolls back
and happened to him and went to her over
there and his play made it see if I was
a crackhead I would be comfortable to
stay a crackhead as long as there were
no crackheads who got delivered but if
there is one Crockett
that got delivered they condemned me in
the judgement that is you got out see we
were in the same prison and if you found
a way to get out and somewhere there’s a
wall there’s a door and there’s a
trapdoor there’s a window there’s a
wicker this he got out then there is no
way in this world I got to die in this
situation touch somebody and tell them
I’m coming back I’m coming out I’m
coming out I’m coming out whatever you
got I got it too
I’m coming out I’m coming out I may have
to go in the gym and work out a little
bit but I’m coming out I may have to
stay up reading and praying but I’m
coming out I may have to lay hands on my
head but I’m coming out I may have to
retrain how I think but I’m coming out
I may have to confess where I’m going
but I’m coming out my god I don’t know
who I’m talking to but I feel like I’m
talking to somebody slap your neighbor
and tell him I’m coming out I came in
this church so I could come out of my
situation I came in this church so that
I could come out man we got a common
dilemma we got a common solution faith
not Church
you can go to church until your face
cracks but if you don’t develop faith
you just warming up a Pew
thank you for your body
[Music]
and a lot of people don’t get anything
out of church either because they pick
Church for crazy reasons I’m going to
church – the girl is fine over there
well I’m going to church the choirs
banging I like the pastor he’s nice was
I’m nice enough whether the choir sings
or not what it’s convenient for you to
get in or not you come to church to get
the word because faith cometh by and
hearing by the Word of God see faith
comes I wrote it I wrote it I took my
Jeep this morning I wrote my Jeep I came
in by Jeep see faith wrote in – but it
wrote in by word see faith cometh by
hearing and hearing by the Word of God
you cannot believe what you have not
heard you cannot faith cometh by hearing
and hearing by the Word of God so
whatever you do let me get this word
because it will determine the way I
think you understand what I’m saying to
you I told somebody we were talking
about the changes in the culture in this
society today and they were talking
about how the whole world is changing
its views about same-sex marriage and
about this and then how the whole world
is changing I said it’s not true whoever
had change the views the stats show that
the majority of people are still
conservative on this issue the reason
that it feels like the whole world has
changed its views is that the people who
hold the view control the media
[Music]
and if you control the images I see and
the statements are here then gradually
your opinion will affect the rest of the
world and to because when you turn off
the TV and everybody’s seeing things a
certain kind of way after a while it
makes you feel like the whole world when
it could be a minority it could be a
minority who controls the images you see
look at how powerful that he is the
images you see gradually become adopted
into your mind and gradually the hardest
attitude against anything will begin to
wear down because of what you see with
your eye and what you hear with your ear
will change your mind
that’s why preaching is important
because faith cometh by hearing and
hearing by the Word of God whenever I
give those nasty posts on internet and
stuff like that when I do take the time
to look at them and I go back and see
it’s a hood rat that cussed me out I
understand that I understand
[Applause]
where my medicine girl need my medicine
pray for your brother need some medicine
I understand his perspectives are
controlled by his images and I can’t be
insulted by somebody who lives on Pluto
while I’m living on earth he’s talking
what he said and I’m talking what I’m
seeing and were from two different
worlds
sir mama was right when she told us
considered of the source before I will
contemplate the criticism I always check
that validate the source and when I
found out the source many times I
understand oh I see why you think that
you ain’t been out of Memphis
[Applause]
Eastside immense who said that so your
worldview is really a community and when
your war view is a community then your
ideology it’s going to be a reflection
of what you see with your eyes and hear
with your ear your evangelists are at
the barbershop
they’ve run a crusade while they curl in
your hair and you are a product of the
people who speak into your life that’s
why I don’t want nobody defeated to
speak into my life I want somebody
that’s got some victory to speak into my
life I don’t want you to be broke and
down and out and depressed and speaking
of my life I want to hear from an
overcomer because I’m trying to come
over let’s get out if you get me excited
and when you get excited I get excited
they get excited and the people on the
internet get excited the whole place
goes crazy to the intellectual sharing
your fascination with intellectualism
intelligence is quite important but
intelligence has variables we are not
equally endowed with intelligence
so if god intellectualize Redemption it
wouldn’t be just because all of us do
not have the same IQ there was a popular
theology in scriptures called Gnosticism
and the Gnosticism though is rooted in
the word not where we get knowledge
knowledge Gnosticism is an ideologies
that suggested that through
intellectualism you could embrace god
but what that creates is a lean ism
because we are not equally endowed
intellectually so a man would go to hell
just because he wasn’t smart
[Music]
faith is not a science
faith is not a science it defies logic
it defies logic now to those of you who
who I’ve got several people who teach at
universities and who are very very
doctor degrees in new you’re very astute
very astute
you have been trained for years that
your knowledge and your logic epitomizes
truth so when you bring that
philosophical ideology to church you
struggle with faith because faith is not
a science it defies logic and sometimes
because you are so reasoned you did
wonderful at the university but you
struggle in the kingdom because you want
to know why about everything which is
great for the classroom but it’s wrong
for the kingdom because you cannot
expect God to explain why to something
as small as you cuz he’ll ask you like
he didn’t joke where were you
when I spread out the seven seas why
were you when I separated the lights
have done why were you mad tops are
above your thoughts my waves above your
ways
faith is not logical so in an endeavor
to be just salvation comes by oh you’re
doing good because if it came by
intellectualism it wouldn’t be just it
became that Talent it wouldn’t be just
faith is God leveling the playing for he
leveled it solo until he said unless you
become like children you want to learn
about faith watch your children not your
pastor watch your children watch how
easily they believe what they are
exposed to what’s the innocent and that
easiness in which they believe is built
on trust
they trust for truth the problem that
God has with unbelievers is that your
unbelief is an insult to him it says you
don’t trust him
it says that your little mind that he
created is policing the God who created
it it says that you were there to put
your thoughts in an argument with the
God who created the mind that you have
to think well even Jesus said not my
will but thine be done
so what he requires whether you are
intellectual or illiterate is an equal
opportunity and accessing the things
that matter most the illiterate can’t
teach at the university but just because
he is small in the earth doesn’t mean
that he’s small in the kingdom you can
be illiterate and be anointed
[Applause]
let me try y’all
you can be illiterate and be anointed so
in the kingdom the floor is leveled by
faith touch the mind say by faith now
yeah okay let me do that that’s cuz I
wanted to do that and I thought I would
be getting ahead of myself this uh I got
some money
I want I wanna I want a Big Mac Mac and
the Anna I get but I got $5.00
this mote is legal tender for all debts
public and private it is not what I want
but it is the substance of the thing I
hopeful I hope for a double with fries I
got $5.00 I’m gonna get watch this watch
us I’m going somewhere I’m I’m different
I’m gonna get the double with fries bad
this $5 because this $5 is the substance
of the things I hope for and it is the
evidence of the things that I cannot see
it is so effective see let me show
listen no you can’t eat it but even get
me something I can eat if I Drive up to
the window I can trade this for that
this works in the earth realm what this
is in the earth realm faith is in the
spirit realm come on somebody come on
somebody come on somebody come on
somebody come on somebody
cuddle somebody come on somebody cut off
somebody come on somebody
that’s why
every team that to see done in Hebrews
11 kingdoms were rock nation’s destroyed
women had their bodies quicken gave
births after their wounds were shut up
they possessed cities and lam properties
and Tinga and they say God how did they
do it I believed my way through it
I believe my was the yester – Sunday
when they sung that song and they saw
him I believe they pictured because they
knew it was one of my favorite songs I
know that God is for me who bite me out
because I have always always believed
that God was for me am i right about it
we have talked about this many times our
ideas about parenting are different even
amongst siblings because if you see the
parent as a disciplinarian you will have
more fear my parents weren’t discipline
aliens but if you have the feeling of
being your parents favorite favor will
overcome fear so if you grew up in fear
you see God as a disciplinarian but if
you go up in flavor you say I know he
likes me
all y’all got talking to me all my
talking to me I’m trying to get in there
and do some adjustments to how you
approach it because if you don’t
approach him by faith you can’t get in
you must come out boldly to the throne
of grace he said you got to walk in the
room like you know you’re my child like
you know I am for you like you know I am
with you like you know I’m gonna bless
you like your love you’re an overcomer I
don’t know who I’m treated to but I’d
get ready to revolutionize your life
sit down surround you get a happy don’t
do this
now we’re gonna run a fat one gonna
Romans travel one this is good this is
good you gotta go here cuz this that if
I can get this in you this’ll change the
rest of your life if I get this a change
or I can spend weeks on this see see my
faith is an instrument of exchange see
it’s an instrument of exchange it’s an
instrument of exchange my faith is an
instrument of exchange so so the Hebrews
the drummer side the one says therefore
being justified oh my god you mean it
won’t just get me a whopper with cheese
it’ll get me a justification what is
justification a right standing before
God I’m not right
I had a guy tweet me a few weeks ago and
I happen to be on Twitter in town and he
said I trust that you are a righteous
and holy man for the way you are
respected all over the world and and I
didn’t say nothing back because if you
Twitter wouldn’t hold it it wouldn’t
hold it so I did say nothing but had I
said something I would have said don’t
trust that cuz I ain’t nothing don’t
hold me hostage to some standard that I
know you ain’t either
the Bible has already told on both both
of us that there is love good but the
father so wouldn’t I look like a fool
standing up sin yeah brother I got this
righteousness down and trying to live
right I try to live good I try to be a
good person but I mess up tell you to me
don’t get off schedule don’t miss a day
I will do something crazy every day and
he’s not going to sit over in another
country and hold me hostage to a
standing that I already know he can’t
live up to so don’t bless me when you
ain’t nothing either
there I will be living in prison all of
my life I’m stuck in the phone booth
trying to live up to your expectation
and you dive in the clubs all about hey
the devil is alive
[Applause]
you understand what I’m saying and I
just use that an illustrator but in some
way you do something that that nullifies
you from being righteous so how do we
become righteous when we don’t have it
the same way we get the whopper with
fries that we don’t have it
we trade for it what we’re gonna trade
God says in order to purchase
righteousness to acquire righteousness
it’s purchased by the blood to access
righteousness you got to do it by faith
now read it therefore being justified by
faith
look what faith got us peace with God
[Music]
peace you know what gets the peace of
God it’s not dancing you that’s why you
can dance all over the church and go
home and be troubled you can you can
dance all over the church there’d be a
whole
[Applause]
don’t pick the wrong Sunday that’s all I
can say because the line of delineation
that separates us from the world is our
faith therefore being justified by faith
we have peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ by whom also we have access
by faith into this grace wherein we
stand in order to get grace in order to
get grace in order to get messy in order
to get grace
I gotta have faith to get it it was
amazing to me I got one of those big old
satellite systems when they first came
out you remember when the satellite was
bigger than your house
yeah one-bedroom house and you couldn’t
even see the house because the satellite
I mean we had people on welfare had
satellites well I was what I had one too
needed a car but I have satellites it’s
me it’s the process of development you
have to grow into it that I have and it
amazed me that that all that big
receiver was picking up what was there
all the time but I didn’t have any way
to receive it because I didn’t have a
receiver so they put a receiver in my
house so that it could pick up what was
there all the time
I wonder how much is later that you’re
missing because you don’t have the faith
to pick up the waves of blessings that
are coming your way
shaken in a second ahead its fate I
gotta have this faith because you’re
picking up things I’m not picking up
you’re picking up healing you’re picking
up joy you’re picking up prosperity
you’re picking up peace you’re picking
up salvation and I’m standing right
beside you and I can’t get it no you
can’t get it cuz you gotta have the
system and the system is and the system
is and the just Yuliya bar and we will
walk by and healing comes by
and salvation comes by Oh y’all better

i watch this I’m going here Hebrews 4
gets to put my money uh Hebrews 4 3
anybody getting anything out of this in
my glad you came to church this morning
glory to God don’t you see that if we
start teaching faith we won’t have all
of this denominationalism we won’t have
racism we won’t have gender ISM we could
get rid of all of the isms because faith
is a common denominator
God is not opening the door because he
feels sorry for you so you can stop
whimpering when I went through what I
went through because now if you think
about that you talk him to a God who was
crucified he said you telling me what
you would do he said do you know what I
went through
do you know what they did to me and I
got up from it
I know what fair what happened to you
but he says it wasn’t fair what happened
to me but did you see it took me one two
three days it’s time to get over that
thing it’s time to get over that thing
you got three days to be like Jesus you
got three days to be like Jesus you got
three days to shake it off you got three
days to come above it God’s got
something for you to do I don’t know who
I’m preaching to but I’m talking to
somebody this morning shout hallelujah

over to so this is why and I’m not

why I like a Live service because there
are certain things that you get in a lot
of service that you can’t get over a
stream the atmosphere you get the word
but the atmosphere that is there the
transference there the transference
there’s a release of glory when you’re
in the room there’s just something that
you get out of bed where you can smell
it and you can you can feel it you can
touch it something’s about to happen in
here I can sense it right now I want you

even have to get up just take him by the
hand and say I will pray for you that

[Applause]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
I’m gonna try to get a little bit more
than you sit out so I’ll try to get a
little bit more
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
you know what I love about church
everybody shouting about something
different
somebody said my jet is gone somebody
said my cancers gone assess of time it
came to pass that Cain brought of the
fruit of the ground an offering unto the
Lord he brought her the food of the
ground an offering unto the Lord and
Abel he also brought of the firstlings
of his flock and of the fat thereof and
the Lord had respect unto Abel and to
his offering the Lord favoured Abel
[Music]
until his offering the Lord had favor on
Abel because of his offering
the Lord honored Abel’s offering because
it was Abel’s sacrifice it was Abel’s
sacrifice there is a conversation to be
had
why does God even care about it offering
did God honor Abel’s sacrifice because
he was hungry
does God honor your tithes and offerings
because he’s broke to money your money
is a tangible evidence of your heart’s
commitment toward him well my wife and I
were getting ready to buy the property
near where we were at now we went in the
realtor brought us in to see the house
took us all around to see the houses a
woman in the house had two little kids
in the house and they want to see we
want to buy the house and I told to read
it I said whoever is married to her
doesn’t love her and and he wasn’t homes
so we said why do you say that I said
because obviously there are people with
liens and a man with means will always
put money in the house of the woman he
wants
you better hear me when I’m telling you
you know why you gonna fix up your
Playhouse unless you’re not playing
there
I’m a bra man ever know what I’m talking
about if a man sees the nest as his
Playhouse he will fix it up when he
pulls his expectation out the money
comes with it because giving is an
expression of the heart come to find out
when we went back to see the house again
she said to the realtor the reason I’m
selling the house is because my husband
left me for somebody else and left me
with two kids by myself what she didn’t
know he left long before he left
how do I know I know about his offering
if he makes $200 a month he gonna put 50
at least into where he stayed a hundred
something you’re not going to love
something that you won’t support
if if you love heroin you’re gonna
support heroin pornography never goes on
sale
[Applause]
you don’t receive no pornographic place
talking about 50% off
you know why people support what they
love the Lord had respect unto Abel
offering because Abel respected the Lord
enough to give God what he wanted God
said I’m not going on sale you will have
to pay the price the price clearly
though it is not enunciated in the text
the price clearly had to be blood
because that’s consistent with the whole
scripture they had to know the price
because Hebrews says that Abel offered
it by faith and faith cometh by and
hearing so when the Bible says what’s
this when the Bible says that God had
respect unto Abel and his offering but
unto Cain and to his offering he had no
respect and Cain cop attitude which is
an African American colloquialism for
being he was he was angry and the system
will give in he says the Lord said to
Cain what’s wrong with you why are you
angry why is that countenance fallen if
thou doest well shalt thou not be
accepted in other words you knew what it
cost why are you acting shocked because
I won’t accept what you want to give me
rather than what I require
[Applause]
you act like I rejected you
I didn’t reject you I rejected you
controlling how to worship me you gave
me what you felt like I deserved but it
will not be by feelings it will be by
God says if you do what Abel did you can
get but Abel God now let me go a little
bit further if if Cain had given God
what he wanted rather than giving God
what you want to give him it would have
been a breakthrough that would have
changed the whole narrative and I’m
wondering how many times are you guilty
of giving God what you think he should
have rather than what he requires
listen let’s want less so get here let’s
go deeper in your relationship right now
are you giving what’s comfortable or
what’s required when your giving is
based on your comfort rather than your
love for me it’s not an offering
your offering has to be a sacrifice to
be acceptable you don’t get to set the
price on what I need and all that will
not pay live alone because if you’re
stubborn long enough that you will only
do things your way you will always end
up by yourself because any relationship
requires service and sacrifice and if
it’s true about God is true about people
the reason we have such discontentment
because every decision is based on your
preferences what you want what you like
what you’re good at Cain gave God what
he was good at but he didn’t give him
what God required and what happened was
this Cain becomes offers to God works
Abel offers to God grace sacrifice chain
gives God what he wants and God says to
him all right
because you insist on being you what
used to work for you will never work for
you again
because you won’t grow because you won’t
change because you won’t transform
because you insist that it’s your way or
the highway it’s the highway for you do
never again will the ground yield unto
you is strength you won’t be able to go
back and do what you used to do because
I’m a closed door you wouldn’t grow
forward now you can’t go back now you
got to get out you lost the entire
experience because you did not worship
by faith you didn’t do it by faith you
got to do it children okay okay tell you
what let me show you your way the way of
the transgressor is hard all I asked you
to do is slay a lamb and you that
wouldn’t slay a lamb now you end up slam
your brother wouldn’t it have been
easier to have slain the lamb then to
have slain your brother when you don’t
do what I require you end up sharing
more blood
who have you killed because you wouldn’t
control do you hear the words better
coming out of my mouth when I’m trying
to get you to understand here is that
faith is your friend it comes to stop
you from killing of the people with your
pain if you would just threw it all over
the land shut up and let the lamb be
enough then you wouldn’t end up killing
other people and then give me what is
comfortable to you and now you made me
shut the door I tried to get you to grow
willingly but because you have developed
a system agricultural system a cycle of
going on he said now in order to break
the cycle I’ve got to curse the ground
I’m going to curse the door on you going
back you will never be able to get back
to who you were the people who used to
help you will not help you the people
who used to be there wouldn’t be there
I’m gonna shut the door on you going
back to being who you were and you gonna
have to grow up and go forward because I
have shut the door on going back I don’t
know who I’m preaching to but I’m
talking to somebody when you when God
really has interest in you he will shut
the door on going back he will close the
Red Sea so you can’t miss Egypt and go
back for the onions and end up with the
handcuffs
we go back for the onions but we end up
with the handcuffs
we remember the onions of Egypt we
forgot we were slaves you remember the
good things about him but you forgot the
hell he took you through and God says
Angelus shut the door Oh God good karma
I gotta stop and take a minute forget
about you cuz when I start thinking
about shut doors I have to praise him
for all the tours that he shut in my
life thank you
for the friends that rejected me thank
you for the people that said no thank
you for the people who walked out of my
life if I wanna stop there I would have
missed my destiny but every time you
wanted to set a door it was because you
had something better for me if you
understand what I’m saying
you’ve got a page like that
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
God is trying to tell Kay that he is no
respecter of persons but he is a
respecter of principles if you follow
the principle you can get his respect
stop whining as if God was a respecter
of persons God doesn’t love anybody
anybody any more than he loves you
nobody any more than he loves you don’t
be mad because they’re walking in his
love while you’re walking in your pass
and your doubt and your fear and your
insecurities God doesn’t love anybody
any more than he loves you he doesn’t
love anybody any more than he loves you
you didn’t earn it you don’t deserve it
he gave it to you before you got saved
he commended his love towards you while
you were yet sinners that’s why the guns
didn’t kill you that’s why the wrecks
didn’t destroy you that’s why the
enemies didn’t take you down
God did not wait till you got safe to
love you he loved you when you were in
your sins he loved you when you were in
your mess you know if God loved you when
you were in your sins then surely he
will love you now that you’re in the
kingdom and all he wants you to do is
walk in him and talk in it and live in
it and think in it and move it who am i
preaching to I’m talking to somebody
[Applause]
faith is a perspective if we only define
faith as the substance of things hoped
for and the evidence of things not seen
what does that really mean in a day to
day life how’s your faith working in
your life or has Church to become a
habit I want to tell you in your soul in
your heart in your life faith lives in
there but it doesn’t live alone there’s
a whole community around your faith so
and I don’t care how faith filled you
are your faith is not holding down that
block by itself right across the street
is brother doubt and down on the corner
is sister fear and then three doors down
is sister anxiety and depression lives
over the garage she’s got a small
apartment over there oh all of them live
in the community of faith every person
in this room has some level of doubts
every person is room has some level of
fear every person in this room has
served some level of anxiety every
person in this room has to fight some
level of depression all of that stuff
lives in the neighborhood and the people
of what happens that day what you read
what you heard what you confronted how
you react to that our goal as we preach
the Word of God to you is to gradually
rat gradually reject refer Kate the
neighborhood until faith begins to
dominate and take control over the
neighborhood one house at a time we are
take
over the community till you start
walking by faith talking about faith
living by faith thinking by faith
raising your family by faith doing
business by faith faced and adversities
about faith trusting in God and I don’t
care what else you do you can see and
you can cry until your face looks like a
rainbow but if you don’t have face when
you get to cry isn’t do anything at all
you have to possess faith in your soul
and if there’s one thing that the devil
is constantly after constantly after
he’s after your faith
Oh bless his name he’s after your faith
I’ve heard people say the devil trying
to get my car and the devil after my
habits and the Devils
after my boy he’s favoring the Devils
after my marriage didn’t ever go walk
your husband
what is the devil there was your car
didn’t ever that want your house well
why don’t he attack all of this stuff he
attacks that stuff to get to your faith
everything that the enemy is attacking
in your life right now he is attacking
to get your faith your faith is a
valuable commodity your faith moves god
your face shakes heaven your faith
forgets the devil your face reboots
diseases your face gives you courage
your faith gives you confidence your
face reaches in the spirit your face
snatches the promises your face embraces
the word of God it is your same
is there anybody in here that’s got
faith
I need 16 men up here now you got me
framed in through faith we understand
that the worlds were framed by the Word
of God okay I can’t go but so far cuz
you got me framed in
that I would do I can’t do cuz they got
me framed there I can’t get out of
control cuz she got me framed cuz you
got me framed in trust me people tell
them I’ve been framed in God said I got
you framed in I don’t care what season
it is
I don’t care what stage of life here you
can be at the beginning of your life you
can be in the winter of your life he
said I took all of that in consideration
when I said let that be it was my word
is eternal because I am eternal and I
got you framed in able worship by faith
Enoch walked by faith Noah being warned
of God of things not yet seen moved with
fear building an ark to the saving of
his house no I’ll work by faith Abel
worship my face inna
walk by faith no work by faith work by
same work by faith
you got a work by saying tell you they
be you got to work by faith you got to
work that thing you got to work it if
you walk out of here back
is cuz you wanna be there’s enough word
in here right now
[Applause]
while did what you believe Wow did what
you believed this morning I want to talk
about faith is an equalizer faith ears
and equalizer faith ears and equalizer
when you read Hebrews 11 and you read
all the way down to the eleventh chapter
the book a Hebrews everything it says
over and over by faith by faith by faith
faith was the equipment that they use
irrespective of gender irrespective of
age irrespective of where they were in
civilization or technology or
circumstance or whatever was going on in
their parameters whether they were in
conflict or in war it will always boil
down to faith it boils down to faith it
boils down to faith it boils down to
faith what is your philosophy I’m going
to talk about what you’re supposed to
believe you’re good at quoting what
you’re supposed to believe I’m talking
about what do you really believe you
don’t know what you really believe till
you get in trouble when you get in
trouble your real values and your real
ethics begin to come out when you’re in
trouble and if you don’t understand that
you’re gonna miss a whole lot now there
was a statement that I made previously
and I want to build on it today I began
to talk about Abel offered up the Bible
says that Abel offered up a more
excellent sacrifice than Cain hence we
understand that Abel worshiped by faith
even walked by faith the Bible said in
it what with God and was not but he left
this testimony that he pleased God and
Noah worked by faith so where we’re
gonna start in understanding is to begin
to understand what it means to worship
by faith what does that mean
what does that mean to worship by faith
what does that mean to worship by faith
because most people worshiped by
feelings
if the feeling gets right if the
emotions are right if you’re in the
right stage of your life if you feel
like worshiping you worship but God
doesn’t want you to worship my feelings
he wants you to worship by faith because
if he wants it by feelings people who
have less access to their emotions feel
less committed to worship they’ll tell
you that’s just not how I am I’m not
that way I’m just a quiet person
I’m not worried like that this is not
about wiring this is not about feelings
this is not about you it’s not about
what you feel like doing it’s not about
what you want to do it is about how God
wants to be worship how he wants to be
handled and so in order to worship my
faith you must be submissive enough to
submit your will to his will and if
you’re not willing to submit your will
to his will are you really a disciple
and I know you go to church I know you
go to church but are you really a
disciple I want you to know that church
existed before we called it church
christianity existed before we called it
christianity but from the earliest days
the one thing that they call all of the
followers of Jesus Christ was believers
because they were known for their faith
I want to ask you a question for having
long you’ve been saved
are you known for your faith on your job
in your community amongst your family
are you known for your faith or your
temper are you known for your faith or
your talent are you known for your faith
or your attitude are you known for your
faith if you’re not known for your faith
are you really a believer are you known
for your singing are you don’t for your
dancing are you known for your preachers
I don’t care about your gift at the end
of the day
you can’t fight the devil with your
voice you know why it wouldn’t be fair
to fight the devil with your voice cuz
April can sing better than me when she
could fight the devil off singing like
that if it were by voice then it
wouldn’t be fair because God did not
give me it’s much voice as he gave you
that every time I got in trouble I would
have to call you cuz you have better
equipment than me come on somebody she
could hit notes that I can’t I can’t
even get him in my head to hear so if it
were by talents then the God would not
be just because he would be asking me
for something that he didn’t give me
come on somebody but if it’s my fate
well we’re interested all guards y’all
here over there I’m getting ahead of
myself I’m getting excited you don’t get
something out of this touch them and say
you don’t get something out of this I
want you to look at Romans twelve and
three we’re gonna look at Romans 12 and
three you gotta move fast cuz I got a
long ways to go short time to get there
but Romans 12:1 says for I say through
the grace given unto me to every man
that is among you how many men every man
that is among you not to think of
himself more highly than he ought not
that’s a sermon right there
good God if I stay I could stay there
all day not to think of himself more
highly than he ought to think but to
think soberly soberly so what does it
mean to be sober it’s the opposite of
being drunk what does being drunk mean
to be intoxicated by outside influence
are you intoxicated by outside influence
because whether you have a drink or not
according to God you are
when you allow outside things to
influence how you are inside you are not
sober you are intoxicated you are
enumerated by your own pain by your own
past by your own beauty whatever it is
that’s affecting your feelings and
affecting your attitude that’s coming
from the outside has got you drunk touch
your neighbor and say sober up because
in order to approach God you have to be
sober then that means sad I’m sober
right now but I’m not sad I know I’m
sober because I have not allowed outside
influences to affect my behavior so the
Bible says soberly are you sober
according as God has dealt to some men
or you know and if don’t have my glasses
do to the preachers to the people who
can sing to black folks to rich folks to
Latino folks to white folks away
whenever getting right to short people
to tall people to handsome people to fat
people to everyman this is the one thing
that God has made sure every man has he
has dealt unto him the measure of faith
so you cannot say to God I didn’t get
saved cuz I didn’t have it you cannot
say to God I didn’t live on top of my
circumstances because you asked me for
something that you didn’t give me you
have enough faith to get out of this if
you will use it I’m not talking to y’all
y’all sleep
you have enough faith to get out of this
if you’ll use it you don’t need to call
me they didn’t give me let me try you
don’t need to call me my line might be
busy I might be in a bad mood I might
not be walking in victory that day you
don’t need to call the Pope you don’t
need to call anybody else you all you
gotta do is call Jesus because God I got
the same I got the face of myself got
the fame somebody I got the phrase
somebody say I got the fame somebody I
got the fame somebody I got the fame now
I haven’t something and using it are two
different things
oh you know Bishop just got such faith
he’s a great man of faith and power
really how you know how you know can you
see my face no you can’t see my face you
think I’ve got more faith in you
absolutely not I don’t know who you are
because you can’t see that far but young
man right there with the baby yeah I
know you gonna faint coz I called you
put your the spot yeah but come up here
for me to come up here come up here
yeah come up here come up here and just
stand right beside me how you doing tell
me your name hey Jeff how’s it going
Jess I brought some here cuz I like this
book oh yeah everything
we cool see now I really brought him up
here because Jeff is so small in
comparison to me it does not look like
he would have as many muscles as I do
let me put it this way if we was gonna
arm wrestle you was gonna put $100 down
would you put it on me there
he said he said he would put his hundred
dollars off me okay let’s see there you
know that that’s you know that’s good
truth of the matter is I don’t have one
more muscle than he does not one more
muscle the difference in our muscle tone
is how we worked it ain’t saying you
don’t work out and you look good pose oh
I got the right guy here today I got the
right one I’m here today I said oh no I
knew who to get see and thank you that’s
all if I could put you on the spot
before did he do big give him big around
now my I think I didn’t manage your arms
but I think my arms are bigger than
Jeff’s not because they have more muscle
but they’ve had to carry more weight
the more weight your faith has to carry
the bigger your faith is going to get is
you are by faith your faith is gonna
swell up to meet the challenge that you
have in your life right now do you hear
what I’m saying because God have dealt
to me and just the same amount of
muscles the same amount of faith the
same amount of blood the same amount of
opportunity the only difference between
me and death is what we choose to do
with what we have been given he woke up
this morning I woke up this morning he
got two eyes I got two eyes he got two
legs I got to lace the rest of it is up
to us what we choose to do how
intellectual we become we got the same
brain and it’s not it’s not his fault
that he’s smarter than me he just did
more with what he has been given so stop
complaining about who’s fighting you and
who doesn’t like you and who doesn’t
support you don’t blame me because she
didn’t use what you have been given it
is your fault and until you take
responsibility for what you did you
cannot change your circumstance it’s not
the black man is not the white man it’s
not the devil is not President Obama it
is new
now prayed my strength in the Lord God
and dumped it is this good
now I’m gonna taste I’m gonna go to
first Corinthians 13 we got a common
power in faith and we got a common
dilemma in this world
1st Corinthians 10:13 there have no no
temptation not one temptation not one
that little temptation that you’ve got
that you don’t think that nobody else in
the world has it but you you will freaks
out
[Applause]
and didn’t take my medication this
morning I was in a hurry and a
restaurant a house I forgot to take it
has taken you but such as is common to
man but God is faithful who will not
suffer you to be tempted above that ye
are able but will with not after wit not
after which the temptation also make a
way of escape that means if there’s a
temptation there’s a way out if there’s
a prison there’s a door out at the same
time what is made the other one is made
if you fell in it you just wanted to
[Applause]
what I’m trying to do is is level the
playing floor so that you understand our
temptations are common and our faith is
common now once we get down to that
level but there is not there’s no such
thing as you having a special problem
there are no special problems everybody
got to say her stuff there’s no
temptation taken you but such as is
common to man there is no temptation
taken you but such as is common to man
God is faithful who will not suffer you
to be tempted above that which you are
able but will what I love is to read
that emphasize that with the temptation
also make a way of escape
it lets me know that God does not allow
anything to be created without a door
you can get out stop playing with your
head you can get it I just love it I
take it you can you hear what I’m saying
I can’t help it I just can’t help it I
can’t live without Sally
if silent can live without you I said if
Sally heavenly all she got to do is show
me that she’s cool without me
[Applause]
now you won’t die I might die with you
but when I see you still breathing the
devil is alive will with the temptation
also make a way of escape
if you got a problem you don’t have to
pray wishing there was an answer
the very fact that you’ve got a problem
is a sign that there is good God
Almighty that’s subtle should know as
something to know right there so I want
you to understand the calmness of the
dilemma and I want to deal with this a
little bit more I want to cuz I want to
make sure you get this all of us have a
story things that happen to us in life
and and their personal and their deep
and they have consequences and the
consequences feel unique and as long as
the consequences feel you’ll each it
almost gives you a visa not to recover
you got a passport not to get better
because look at what happened to me
never understanding that something
similar happen to him something like
that happen to her and three rolls back
and happened to him and went to her over
there and his play made it see if I was
a crackhead I would be comfortable to
stay a crackhead as long as there were
no crackheads who got delivered but if
there is one Crockett
that got delivered they condemned me in
the judgement that is you got out see we
were in the same prison and if you found
a way to get out and somewhere there’s a
wall there’s a door and there’s a
trapdoor there’s a window there’s a
wicker this he got out then there is no
way in this world I got to die in this
situation touch somebody and tell them
I’m coming back I’m coming out I’m
coming out I’m coming out whatever you
got I got it too
I’m coming out I’m coming out I may have
to go in the gym and work out a little
bit but I’m coming out I may have to
stay up reading and praying but I’m
coming out I may have to lay hands on my
head but I’m coming out I may have to
retrain how I think but I’m coming out
I may have to confess where I’m going
but I’m coming out my god I don’t know
who I’m talking to but I feel like I’m
talking to somebody slap your neighbor
and tell him I’m coming out I came in
this church so I could come out of my
situation I came in this church so that
I could come out man we got a common
dilemma we got a common solution faith
not Church
you can go to church until your face
cracks but if you don’t develop faith
you just warming up a Pew
thank you for your body
[Music]
and a lot of people don’t get anything
out of church either because they pick
Church for crazy reasons I’m going to
church – the girl is fine over there
well I’m going to church the choirs
banging I like the pastor he’s nice was
I’m nice enough whether the choir sings
or not what it’s convenient for you to
get in or not you come to church to get
the word because faith cometh by and
hearing by the Word of God see faith
comes I wrote it I wrote it I took my
Jeep this morning I wrote my Jeep I came
in by Jeep see faith wrote in – but it
wrote in by word see faith cometh by
hearing and hearing by the Word of God
you cannot believe what you have not
heard you cannot faith cometh by hearing
and hearing by the Word of God so
whatever you do let me get this word
because it will determine the way I
think you understand what I’m saying to
you I told somebody we were talking
about the changes in the culture in this
society today and they were talking
about how the whole world is changing
its views about same-sex marriage and
about this and then how the whole world
is changing I said it’s not true whoever
had change the views the stats show that
the majority of people are still
conservative on this issue the reason
that it feels like the whole world has
changed its views is that the people who
hold the view control the media
[Music]
and if you control the images I see and
the statements are here then gradually
your opinion will affect the rest of the
world and to because when you turn off
the TV and everybody’s seeing things a
certain kind of way after a while it
makes you feel like the whole world when
it could be a minority it could be a
minority who controls the images you see
look at how powerful that he is the
images you see gradually become adopted
into your mind and gradually the hardest
attitude against anything will begin to
wear down because of what you see with
your eye and what you hear with your ear
will change your mind
that’s why preaching is important
because faith cometh by hearing and
hearing by the Word of God whenever I
give those nasty posts on internet and
stuff like that when I do take the time
to look at them and I go back and see
it’s a hood rat that cussed me out I
understand that I understand
[Applause]
where my medicine girl need my medicine
pray for your brother need some medicine
I understand his perspectives are
controlled by his images and I can’t be
insulted by somebody who lives on Pluto
while I’m living on earth he’s talking
what he said and I’m talking what I’m
seeing and were from two different
worlds
sir mama was right when she told us
considered of the source before I will
contemplate the criticism I always check
that validate the source and when I
found out the source many times I
understand oh I see why you think that
you ain’t been out of Memphis
[Applause]
Eastside immense who said that so your
worldview is really a community and when
your war view is a community then your
ideology it’s going to be a reflection
of what you see with your eyes and hear
with your ear your evangelists are at
the barbershop
they’ve run a crusade while they curl in
your hair and you are a product of the
people who speak into your life that’s
why I don’t want nobody defeated to
speak into my life I want somebody
that’s got some victory to speak into my
life I don’t want you to be broke and
down and out and depressed and speaking
of my life I want to hear from an
overcomer because I’m trying to come
over let’s get out if you get me excited
and when you get excited I get excited
they get excited and the people on the
internet get excited the whole place
goes crazy to the intellectual sharing
your fascination with intellectualism
intelligence is quite important but
intelligence has variables we are not
equally endowed with intelligence
so if god intellectualize Redemption it
wouldn’t be just because all of us do
not have the same IQ there was a popular
theology in scriptures called Gnosticism
and the Gnosticism though is rooted in
the word not where we get knowledge
knowledge Gnosticism is an ideologies
that suggested that through
intellectualism you could embrace god
but what that creates is a lean ism
because we are not equally endowed
intellectually so a man would go to hell
just because he wasn’t smart
[Music]
faith is not a science
faith is not a science it defies logic
it defies logic now to those of you who
who I’ve got several people who teach at
universities and who are very very
doctor degrees in new you’re very astute
very astute
you have been trained for years that
your knowledge and your logic epitomizes
truth so when you bring that
philosophical ideology to church you
struggle with faith because faith is not
a science it defies logic and sometimes
because you are so reasoned you did
wonderful at the university but you
struggle in the kingdom because you want
to know why about everything which is
great for the classroom but it’s wrong
for the kingdom because you cannot
expect God to explain why to something
as small as you cuz he’ll ask you like
he didn’t joke where were you
when I spread out the seven seas why
were you when I separated the lights
have done why were you mad tops are
above your thoughts my waves above your
ways
faith is not logical so in an endeavor
to be just salvation comes by oh you’re
doing good because if it came by
intellectualism it wouldn’t be just it
became that Talent it wouldn’t be just
faith is God leveling the playing for he
leveled it solo until he said unless you
become like children you want to learn
about faith watch your children not your
pastor watch your children watch how
easily they believe what they are
exposed to what’s the innocent and that
easiness in which they believe is built
on trust
they trust for truth the problem that
God has with unbelievers is that your
unbelief is an insult to him it says you
don’t trust him
it says that your little mind that he
created is policing the God who created
it it says that you were there to put
your thoughts in an argument with the
God who created the mind that you have
to think well even Jesus said not my
will but thine be done
so what he requires whether you are
intellectual or illiterate is an equal
opportunity and accessing the things
that matter most the illiterate can’t
teach at the university but just because
he is small in the earth doesn’t mean
that he’s small in the kingdom you can
be illiterate and be anointed
[Applause]
let me try y’all
you can be illiterate and be anointed so
in the kingdom the floor is leveled by
faith touch the mind say by faith now
yeah okay let me do that that’s cuz I
wanted to do that and I thought I would
be getting ahead of myself this uh I got
some money
I want I wanna I want a Big Mac Mac and
the Anna I get but I got $5.00
this mote is legal tender for all debts
public and private it is not what I want
but it is the substance of the thing I
hopeful I hope for a double with fries I
got $5.00 I’m gonna get watch this watch
us I’m going somewhere I’m I’m different
I’m gonna get the double with fries bad
this $5 because this $5 is the substance
of the things I hope for and it is the
evidence of the things that I cannot see
it is so effective see let me show
listen no you can’t eat it but even get
me something I can eat if I Drive up to
the window I can trade this for that
this works in the earth realm what this
is in the earth realm faith is in the
spirit realm come on somebody come on
somebody come on somebody come on
somebody come on somebody
cuddle somebody come on somebody cut off
somebody come on somebody
that’s why
every team that to see done in Hebrews
11 kingdoms were rock nation’s destroyed
women had their bodies quicken gave
births after their wounds were shut up
they possessed cities and lam properties
and Tinga and they say God how did they
do it I believed my way through it
I believe my was the yester – Sunday
when they sung that song and they saw
him I believe they pictured because they
knew it was one of my favorite songs I
know that God is for me who bite me out
because I have always always believed
that God was for me am i right about it
we have talked about this many times our
ideas about parenting are different even
amongst siblings because if you see the
parent as a disciplinarian you will have
more fear my parents weren’t discipline
aliens but if you have the feeling of
being your parents favorite favor will
overcome fear so if you grew up in fear
you see God as a disciplinarian but if
you go up in flavor you say I know he
likes me
all y’all got talking to me all my
talking to me I’m trying to get in there
and do some adjustments to how you
approach it because if you don’t
approach him by faith you can’t get in
you must come out boldly to the throne
of grace he said you got to walk in the
room like you know you’re my child like
you know I am for you like you know I am
with you like you know I’m gonna bless
you like your love you’re an overcomer I
don’t know who I’m treated to but I’d
get ready to revolutionize your life
sit down surround you get a happy don’t
do this
now we’re gonna run a fat one gonna
Romans travel one this is good this is
good you gotta go here cuz this that if
I can get this in you this’ll change the
rest of your life if I get this a change
or I can spend weeks on this see see my
faith is an instrument of exchange see
it’s an instrument of exchange it’s an
instrument of exchange my faith is an
instrument of exchange so so the Hebrews
the drummer side the one says therefore
being justified oh my god you mean it
won’t just get me a whopper with cheese
it’ll get me a justification what is
justification a right standing before
God I’m not right
I had a guy tweet me a few weeks ago and
I happen to be on Twitter in town and he
said I trust that you are a righteous
and holy man for the way you are
respected all over the world and and I
didn’t say nothing back because if you
Twitter wouldn’t hold it it wouldn’t
hold it so I did say nothing but had I
said something I would have said don’t
trust that cuz I ain’t nothing don’t
hold me hostage to some standard that I
know you ain’t either
the Bible has already told on both both
of us that there is love good but the
father so wouldn’t I look like a fool
standing up sin yeah brother I got this
righteousness down and trying to live
right I try to live good I try to be a
good person but I mess up tell you to me
don’t get off schedule don’t miss a day
I will do something crazy every day and
he’s not going to sit over in another
country and hold me hostage to a
standing that I already know he can’t
live up to so don’t bless me when you
ain’t nothing either
there I will be living in prison all of
my life I’m stuck in the phone booth
trying to live up to your expectation
and you dive in the clubs all about hey
the devil is alive
[Applause]
you understand what I’m saying and I
just use that an illustrator but in some
way you do something that that nullifies
you from being righteous so how do we
become righteous when we don’t have it
the same way we get the whopper with
fries that we don’t have it
we trade for it what we’re gonna trade
God says in order to purchase
righteousness to acquire righteousness
it’s purchased by the blood to access
righteousness you got to do it by faith
now read it therefore being justified by
faith
look what faith got us peace with God
[Music]
peace you know what gets the peace of
God it’s not dancing you that’s why you
can dance all over the church and go
home and be troubled you can you can
dance all over the church there’d be a
whole
[Applause]
don’t pick the wrong Sunday that’s all I
can say because the line of delineation
that separates us from the world is our
faith therefore being justified by faith
we have peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ by whom also we have access
by faith into this grace wherein we
stand in order to get grace in order to
get grace in order to get messy in order
to get grace
I gotta have faith to get it it was
amazing to me I got one of those big old
satellite systems when they first came
out you remember when the satellite was
bigger than your house
yeah one-bedroom house and you couldn’t
even see the house because the satellite
I mean we had people on welfare had
satellites well I was what I had one too
needed a car but I have satellites it’s
me it’s the process of development you
have to grow into it that I have and it
amazed me that that all that big
receiver was picking up what was there
all the time but I didn’t have any way
to receive it because I didn’t have a
receiver so they put a receiver in my
house so that it could pick up what was
there all the time
I wonder how much is later that you’re
missing because you don’t have the faith
to pick up the waves of blessings that
are coming your way
shaken in a second ahead its fate I
gotta have this faith because you’re
picking up things I’m not picking up
you’re picking up healing you’re picking
up joy you’re picking up prosperity
you’re picking up peace you’re picking
up salvation and I’m standing right
beside you and I can’t get it no you
can’t get it cuz you gotta have the
system and the system is and the system
is and the just Yuliya bar and we will
walk by and healing comes by
and salvation comes by Oh y’all better
shout it here right now
now okay y’all all good you with me okay
you with me now you watching over the
internet there’s a reason God’s got you
streaming over somewhere in your life
you’re under attack you’ve cried you
stressed
you’ve worried you’ve complained and the
problem persists it persists because the
weapons of our warfare are not carnal
but they are mighty through God in order
to pull down a spiritual stronghold you
got to use a spiritual weapon when
everything is said and done in order to
overcome what you’re fighting right now
you got to overcome it and tell them how
to do it tell them tell them how to do
it how they gonna do it how they gonna
raise your children how they gonna buy
the property how’d it go finish school
how they gonna be good mothers how they
gonna be good preachers how they gonna
build a kingdom how they go get out of
that wheelchair how they will survive
the storm
either you believe it or you don’t you
might as well make up in your mind if
you’re gonna be a Christian you might as
well believe God and if you have the
faith as of a grain of mustard seed you
can speak to the mountain
somebody say Mountain get out of my way
you don’t know what just moved in here

time in Genesis for my god something

mountain speech speak to the mountain

somebody say I’m bishop cuz when I got
back home the problem was still there

Jesus curse the fig tree and the
disciples looked at it and said it’s not

this is good I’d like to preach the
things they give you homework that works
at home homework is what works at home
if your gospel only works with an organ
you ain’t got no gospel if your gospel
only works in the sanctuary you don’t
have no gospel if your gospel works at
home now we can work with that your
gospel needs to work in your house in
your circumstance in your situation slap
somebody in trouble and holler MOU xizt
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
i watch this I’m going here Hebrews 4
gets to put my money uh Hebrews 4 3
anybody getting anything out of this in
my glad you came to church this morning
glory to God don’t you see that if we
start teaching faith we won’t have all
of this denominationalism we won’t have
racism we won’t have gender ISM we could
get rid of all of the isms because faith
is a common denominator
God is not opening the door because he
feels sorry for you so you can stop
whimpering when I went through what I
went through because now if you think
about that you talk him to a God who was
crucified he said you telling me what
you would do he said do you know what I
went through
do you know what they did to me and I
got up from it
I know what fair what happened to you
but he says it wasn’t fair what happened
to me but did you see it took me one two
three days it’s time to get over that
thing it’s time to get over that thing
you got three days to be like Jesus you
got three days to be like Jesus you got
three days to shake it off you got three
days to come above it God’s got
something for you to do I don’t know who
I’m preaching to but I’m talking to
somebody this morning shout hallelujah
all right we going to the first family
we’re going to the first family Genesis
chapter 4 verse 3 when they have a say
Amen good this is good but I can’t get
to it every time I get ready to get to
it I can’t get to it I want you to reach
over to so this is why and I’m not
throwing off some people are streaming
i’m glad you’re streaming but this is
why I like a Live service because there
are certain things that you get in a lot
of service that you can’t get over a
stream the atmosphere you get the word
but the atmosphere that is there the
transference there the transference
there’s a release of glory when you’re
in the room there’s just something that
you get out of bed where you can smell
it and you can you can feel it you can
touch it something’s about to happen in
here I can sense it right now I want you
to turn and just take one move you don’t
even have to get up just take him by the
hand and say I will pray for you that
you will get the faith
to rebuke that mountain now just for one
minute I want you to pray for them
that’s 160 seconds over their mountain
I’m praying for you on the Internet I’m
praying for you that have nobody to
touch and agree with I’m praying for you
that they’re going through a situation
right now you got a mountain in your
life some of us see most of those some
of his financial some of us in your
marriage but I come against that
mountain in the name of Jesus I joined
my faith with yours you have been stuck
in that place long enough it’s stolen
enough of your life and your peace of
your joy I come against it in the name
of Jesus I believe that by his power and
by His grace you will overcome we bind
the powers of the end of it we bind the
offspring of your incidents and
accidents tragedies and adversities I
command healings and blessings and
prosperity to come into your life on the
north to south to East in the West your
blessing is about to overtake you you’re
about to rise up like you have never
risen up before and denounce the powers
of the enemy and I crave victory over
your right you will rise up dead one day
two day it’s a third day today it’s a
day of your deliverance let grana rise
and your enemies be scattered give God a
praise right now
[Applause]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
I’m gonna try to get a little bit more
than you sit out so I’ll try to get a
little bit more
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
you know what I love about church
everybody shouting about something
different
somebody said my jet is gone somebody
said my cancers gone assess of time it
came to pass that Cain brought of the
fruit of the ground an offering unto the
Lord he brought her the food of the
ground an offering unto the Lord and
Abel he also brought of the firstlings
of his flock and of the fat thereof and
the Lord had respect unto Abel and to
his offering the Lord favoured Abel
[Music]
until his offering the Lord had favor on
Abel because of his offering
the Lord honored Abel’s offering because
it was Abel’s sacrifice it was Abel’s
sacrifice there is a conversation to be
had
why does God even care about it offering
did God honor Abel’s sacrifice because
he was hungry
does God honor your tithes and offerings
because he’s broke to money your money
is a tangible evidence of your heart’s
commitment toward him well my wife and I
were getting ready to buy the property
near where we were at now we went in the
realtor brought us in to see the house
took us all around to see the houses a
woman in the house had two little kids
in the house and they want to see we
want to buy the house and I told to read
it I said whoever is married to her
doesn’t love her and and he wasn’t homes
so we said why do you say that I said
because obviously there are people with
liens and a man with means will always
put money in the house of the woman he
wants
you better hear me when I’m telling you
you know why you gonna fix up your
Playhouse unless you’re not playing
there
I’m a bra man ever know what I’m talking
about if a man sees the nest as his
Playhouse he will fix it up when he
pulls his expectation out the money
comes with it because giving is an
expression of the heart come to find out
when we went back to see the house again
she said to the realtor the reason I’m
selling the house is because my husband
left me for somebody else and left me
with two kids by myself what she didn’t
know he left long before he left
how do I know I know about his offering
if he makes $200 a month he gonna put 50
at least into where he stayed a hundred
something you’re not going to love
something that you won’t support
if if you love heroin you’re gonna
support heroin pornography never goes on
sale
[Applause]
you don’t receive no pornographic place
talking about 50% off
you know why people support what they
love the Lord had respect unto Abel
offering because Abel respected the Lord
enough to give God what he wanted God
said I’m not going on sale you will have
to pay the price the price clearly
though it is not enunciated in the text
the price clearly had to be blood
because that’s consistent with the whole
scripture they had to know the price
because Hebrews says that Abel offered
it by faith and faith cometh by and
hearing so when the Bible says what’s
this when the Bible says that God had
respect unto Abel and his offering but
unto Cain and to his offering he had no
respect and Cain cop attitude which is
an African American colloquialism for
being he was he was angry and the system
will give in he says the Lord said to
Cain what’s wrong with you why are you
angry why is that countenance fallen if
thou doest well shalt thou not be
accepted in other words you knew what it
cost why are you acting shocked because
I won’t accept what you want to give me
rather than what I require
[Applause]
you act like I rejected you
I didn’t reject you I rejected you
controlling how to worship me you gave
me what you felt like I deserved but it
will not be by feelings it will be by
God says if you do what Abel did you can
get but Abel God now let me go a little
bit further if if Cain had given God
what he wanted rather than giving God
what you want to give him it would have
been a breakthrough that would have
changed the whole narrative and I’m
wondering how many times are you guilty
of giving God what you think he should
have rather than what he requires
listen let’s want less so get here let’s
go deeper in your relationship right now
are you giving what’s comfortable or
what’s required when your giving is
based on your comfort rather than your
love for me it’s not an offering
your offering has to be a sacrifice to
be acceptable you don’t get to set the
price on what I need and all that will
not pay live alone because if you’re
stubborn long enough that you will only
do things your way you will always end
up by yourself because any relationship
requires service and sacrifice and if
it’s true about God is true about people
the reason we have such discontentment
because every decision is based on your
preferences what you want what you like
what you’re good at Cain gave God what
he was good at but he didn’t give him
what God required and what happened was
this Cain becomes offers to God works
Abel offers to God grace sacrifice chain
gives God what he wants and God says to
him all right
because you insist on being you what
used to work for you will never work for
you again
because you won’t grow because you won’t
change because you won’t transform
because you insist that it’s your way or
the highway it’s the highway for you do
never again will the ground yield unto
you is strength you won’t be able to go
back and do what you used to do because
I’m a closed door you wouldn’t grow
forward now you can’t go back now you
got to get out you lost the entire
experience because you did not worship
by faith you didn’t do it by faith you
got to do it children okay okay tell you
what let me show you your way the way of
the transgressor is hard all I asked you
to do is slay a lamb and you that
wouldn’t slay a lamb now you end up slam
your brother wouldn’t it have been
easier to have slain the lamb then to
have slain your brother when you don’t
do what I require you end up sharing
more blood
who have you killed because you wouldn’t
control do you hear the words better
coming out of my mouth when I’m trying
to get you to understand here is that
faith is your friend it comes to stop
you from killing of the people with your
pain if you would just threw it all over
the land shut up and let the lamb be
enough then you wouldn’t end up killing
other people and then give me what is
comfortable to you and now you made me
shut the door I tried to get you to grow
willingly but because you have developed
a system agricultural system a cycle of
going on he said now in order to break
the cycle I’ve got to curse the ground
I’m going to curse the door on you going
back you will never be able to get back
to who you were the people who used to
help you will not help you the people
who used to be there wouldn’t be there
I’m gonna shut the door on you going
back to being who you were and you gonna
have to grow up and go forward because I
have shut the door on going back I don’t
know who I’m preaching to but I’m
talking to somebody when you when God
really has interest in you he will shut
the door on going back he will close the
Red Sea so you can’t miss Egypt and go
back for the onions and end up with the
handcuffs
we go back for the onions but we end up
with the handcuffs
we remember the onions of Egypt we
forgot we were slaves you remember the
good things about him but you forgot the
hell he took you through and God says
Angelus shut the door Oh God good karma
I gotta stop and take a minute forget
about you cuz when I start thinking
about shut doors I have to praise him
for all the tours that he shut in my
life thank you
for the friends that rejected me thank
you for the people that said no thank
you for the people who walked out of my
life if I wanna stop there I would have
missed my destiny but every time you
wanted to set a door it was because you
had something better for me if you
understand what I’m saying
you’ve got a page like that
[Applause]

God is trying to tell Kay that he is no
respecter of persons but he is a
respecter of principles if you follow
the principle you can get his respect
stop whining as if God was a respecter
of persons God doesn’t love anybody
anybody any more than he loves you
nobody any more than he loves you don’t
be mad because they’re walking in his
love while you’re walking in your pass
and your doubt and your fear and your
insecurities God doesn’t love anybody
any more than he loves you he doesn’t
love anybody any more than he loves you
you didn’t earn it you don’t deserve it
he gave it to you before you got saved
he commended his love towards you while
you were yet sinners that’s why the guns
didn’t kill you that’s why the wrecks
didn’t destroy you that’s why the
enemies didn’t take you down
God did not wait till you got safe to
love you he loved you when you were in
your sins he loved you when you were in
your mess you know if God loved you when
you were in your sins then surely he
will love you now that you’re in the
kingdom and all he wants you to do is
walk in him and talk in it and live in
it and think in it and move it who am i
preaching to I’m talking to somebody
[Applause]
