want to take this moment right now in this season that we've been living in as a church you know i think about in the bible where we see daniel he was persecuted and and and his associates and his peers you know they didn't like him worshipping god right and so they thought you know what let's go to the government let's go let's make rules to where he can turn against his god right and i think about it was he the only one was he the only believer that said you know what i'm going to take a stand and i'm not going to stop and i'm going to worship god and i believe right now in this season god has called us to stand strong and stand in the word and it doesn't matter if we get thrown in the fire it doesn't matter if we get thrown in again we're blind we believe that the god that we serve come on right now in the name of jesus is fighting for us he is standing with us and it doesn't matter what we see let us begin to lift up our voice right now and give god some praise and some glory in this that can moment the mighty name of my jesus there is nothing that can stop the mighty name of my jesus there is nothing that can stop that's what we're declaring right now [Music] let's make that confession right now in this [Music] that can moment the mighty name of my jesus there is nothing that can stop the mighty name of my jesus there is come on let's throw it up right now in this moment come on speak this over your problems speak this over your situation speak it over your children come on over that drug over that addiction over your bank account right now [Applause] come on there is [Music] [Applause] of victory right now somebody give god a shadow victory hallelujah [Applause] so let me explain to you this isn't just shouting and clapping these are scriptural biblical expressions that the scripture actually teaches us and directs us to do the bible says shout out to god with a voice of triumph so don't shout yet the bible said clap your hands all ye people so why would the lord tell us to clapper why would he tell us to shout so clapping is an expression of what god has done for us through his covenant little half-minute teaching when you look at the cross it's god's covenant it's him making a covenant adopting us into his family him defeating everything that was ever working to destroy us when you clap your hands you're saying god thank you for the cross thank you for sending jesus when you shout you're shouting because he's already won the victory now some of you may be looking at the face of a battle that's why we were singing to god when we are surrounded he's got us surrounded he outnumbers our enemies [Applause] so i want you to put your hands together and i want you to shout like god has made every mountain every problem every battle everything that could ever be wow [Applause] do you feel the atmosphere shift and change because there's victory in this room the lord is in this room he's promised to meet with us when we gather together in his name we're not here in the name of a religion or a church building we're hearing the name that is above every name we're here in the name of our lord and our savior our master jesus christ himself he is present he is here he's here to bring the victory that he's already won for us father in the name of jesus i pray over every person that is in this room right now i pray god that you would once and for all break the powers of addiction you'd break the powers of oppression you would break the powers of depression you would break anxiety you would break the powers of fear and that would be broken off of people once and for all they'll walk out of here forever free forever changed lord i pray for those that have gathered with us online wherever they could be wherever they may be lord i pray that you would touch them right now whether they're watching on a phone a computer or sitting in a living room or anywhere else god that you would touch them right now that you would minister to them you'd minister hope you administer life god that you administer exactly what they need and you would touch them you'd forever change them in jesus name come on somebody give god

envelope for your giving if you'll just raise your hand they're going to come from behind you they'll serve you keep your hand up till they get to you and um real easy convenient way to give us through text you can just text the word my sanctuary seven seven nine seven seven one word my sanctuary seven seven nine seven seven those of you that are part of our online family i want to say thank you so much for joining in these moments in our generosity time thank you for making this church your church there are people all over america that are part of the sanctuary church family and they've never been here to this property they're in florida they're in alabama they're in virginia they're in colorado and the list is growing on and on and i want to say thank you for joining in in this moment you can give through the link that they put in the chat or if you have a second device you can also text where my sanctuary to 77977 i want to share something with you that kind of stuck out to me that happened over this past week and it's a direct result of your generosity of one of our gatherings this past week a gentleman came up to me at the end and i always stand right here to pray for people make myself available to minister to people that may know it at the end of every gathering he came up to me and he said he said i'm a muslim and i'm like well i'm glad you're here and as we began to talk he said i listened he said every i listened to everything you said he said today i gave my life to jesus christ pretty powerful this past thursday through our live stream a couple of people on the chat they took a brave step and they said i'm struggling and i'm contemplating suicide and so our team and thank god for our dream team we have some incredible people that serve that you never see serving they're sitting in other rooms behind a computer communicating on the different chats on the different places we stream out to and they convinced this person there's two of them but they convinced this person they said we want you to call the number this number right here is the number to the church a person from our prayer team was waiting for them to call as soon as they called they started ministering to them they ministered hope and life to them and god ended up changing that person's life isn't that powerful so many lives are touched and changed and more people than i could count off the top of my head lots and lots of people gave their life to jesus christ and that's the most incredible miracle that could ever be experienced but you know god released miracles into this room and even online people got touched and changed last week there were people that walked into this environment that needed a medical miracle and god met them at their point of need and god healed their bodies isn't that incredible you're making that happen as as the as god brought the children of israel out of egypt he began to instruct them that he wanted to build a tabernacle so that he could be with them and god says here's what i want you to bring here's what i want you to give and it was their giving they created what god was leading them to create and as you watched that over time and throughout scripture god was always leading his people to use their generosity to create something for him what we're creating in this day isn't just a building it's always about people that's the ultimate goal is reaching people like the stories i just told you that's what it's all about we're here on a divine assignment to reach people i'm so thankful that god takes care of us and meets our needs but i don't want us to stop short of just being happy that god's meeting our needs but i don't know i don't want us to ever quit thanking god for meeting our needs the smallest detail the mill that you eat the breath that you breathe the ability to pump gas into your car to walk into the building or to walk out the building to put the ability to put a roof over your head your needs being met thank you jesus but don't stop by saying thank you jesus [Applause] we need to be saying god is such a privilege it's such a privilege that you could use some people like us that you could use somebody like me to do some of the things that we just talked about in terms of people's lives being touched and changed it's a privilege and where i want god to continue to meet all of our needs i want god even greater to use us to meet more and more people's needs by touching them through us the way he did this past week i want you to stand up and we're going to pray today if you give the envelope if you hold in front of you if you give electronically hold your phone in front of you we're bringing this to god he's receiving it we're giving it to him it's a part of our worship father i do thank you and i am so thankful i'm so appreciative for everything you've done and everything you're doing thank you god thank you for taking care of us thank you for meeting our needs all the way to the smallest detail thank you god lord i pray that you would use us to reach so many more people lord i pray that this entire region god would be touched all over this place whether they're in apartments next door down the street or living in one of the neighboring cities or communities god that you would do something so powerful through us god that people begin to get touched that are all around us people are getting saved people are being delivered people are being healed people are being transformed father i prayed for the online community god that it would grow and grow and grow and we would begin to see tens of thousands of people joining in through our live stream and their hearts and lives are being touched and your glory is invading their lives into their living rooms or bedrooms wherever they could be watching god that your glory would invade and touch and we would reach more and more and more for your glory in jesus name amen thank you for your giving god bless you

with the remainder of our time pray god that you would release everything that you have for us today into this place and into our hearts and into our lives god that you would remove anything that would somehow try to get in the way of us being able to receive all that you have for us may every one of us leave this place whether it's in person or online better than what we came in lifted to a higher level change transform as a result of hearing and receiving from you may everything that you impart to us stick to us let it grow let it bring transformation enlighten the eyes of our understanding give us revelation empower us annoy me father like only you can holy spirit you're the primary teacher jesus you're the lord of this place father we give you praise for everything that

experiencing it if you're watching on facebook i want you to hit the share button so other people can get in on this they can hear and receive the word of god they'll touch and change their life forever i started three weeks ago talking from the subject kingdom reset it was inspired from the thought of the great global reset that is attempting to be it's an agenda they're attempting to implement around the world right now there's a lot of prominent uh international figures that are part of the great reset it's really demonic it's a demonic agenda it's part of the end time strategy it's fueled by the spirit of the antichrist and everything that's going on in this world is an attempt for the enemy to try to gain more and more control over the hearts and over the lives of the people that are living life during this time everybody on this planet is influenced by one or two worlds you're either influenced by the kingdom of darkness satan is the kingdom of darkness he's a god of this world he blinds men blinds men from the truth keeps them in ignorance darkness represents ignorance when the bible talks about his people perishing for lack of knowledge it's it's not god saying that your ignorance is it's not a slam it's actually saying you don't know what you don't know all of us have known not known things and learned something we didn't know and when we learned what we didn't know our life immediately got better because we learned something that we'd never known we didn't just learn it we learned it we applied it learning it and applying it changed our life jesus is the light of the world he is a king of kings the lord of lords when we live in his kingdom come underneath his government where influenced by his kingdom we begin to live the life that can only be lived when you're living it from the position of being in his kingdom jesus did not come to create religion jesus came to create sons and daughters there would be citizens within his kingdom and they would discover their identity is a result of their citizenship you will never be able to discover who you were created to be until you discover your citizenship within the kingdom god's intention god's goal has always been his kingdom at work here on the earth when god created the earth created the garden of eden eden was to be a physical representation on earth of heaven it was perfect there was no pain there was no suffering there was no temptation it was ecstasy beyond anything our minds could even phantom or imagine perfect adam and eve were created by god to be his representation in the earth they were to represent him in his physical representation of heaven they were to be subject to him but they were to represent him as they lived out their life for him here on this earth well you know the story adam and eve sinned and they messed it all up everything got out of order you can see all throughout time how everything has begun to be out of order things have gotten broken people are hurting people do things that they create pain and hurt in this world there's war that goes on between these two different worlds the kingdom of darkness and the kingdom of light little sight no it is impossible for darkness to prevail over light it's an impossibility the only way for darkness to succeed is for somebody to turn the light out had a thought the other day it was kind of tongue-in-cheek thought but you'll get the point i believe that the holy spirit is showing up at churches even though the building is just a building we call the church we're the church but the holy spirit is showing up in churches to light a fire of revival but yet when he gets there nobody's there we know he's not limited to a location but you get the thought because whether you're at home or anywhere else he could show up if you're not there because you can be there but you're not there so the world was thrown out of order god always had a plan has a plan his plan will always succeed and his plan will always work daniel had a vision of what was to come daniel could see it in daniel chapter 7 verses 13 and 14 she said i was watching in the night visions god still gives visions he says i was watching in the night visions and behold one like the son of man jesus jesus coming in the clouds of heaven he came and they came to the ancient of days that's god and they broke him near before him then to him was given dominion all authority in heaven and earth has been given to them and glory and a kingdom he was given dominion that's authority and he was given glory and a kingdom daniel had this vision he saw jesus with authority with dominion with glory in his kingdom and that all the peoples nations languages should serve him so he is well that any should perish but that all should come to the saving knowledge of jesus christ and discover their identity and the kingdom of god all people peoples nations languages his dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away and his kingdom and his kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed nations have come nations have gone kingdom kings have risen kings have been brought down but there is one kingdom that will last forever his kingdom nothing can destroy it regardless of what has taken place transpired to our time or what will transpire as we continue to move forward there is one kingdom that is not shakeable it is his kingdom his kingdom will succeed his kingdom will be here and there is a day coming in the future where the kingdoms of this world will become the kingdoms of our god in the meantime his kingdom is here at work isaiah prophesied about it daniel saw it in a vision isaiah prophesied about it prophecy still happens to this day isaiah 9 6 and 7 says for unto us a child is born unto us the son is given and the government because every kingdom has to have a government and the government will be upon his shoulders and his name will be called wonderful counselor mighty god everlasting father prince of peace one of of the increase of his government and peace notice wherever his government is there is peace wherever his kingdom as it work there will be peace in the people where it's at work peace is confidence the absence of peace is a lack of confidence when you have no peace you don't have confidence there's uncertainty when you have peace there's confidence even when you don't have all the answers because you're influenced by his kingdom choices of his government peace there will be no wind that's good news for us up on the throne of david and over his kingdom to order it and establish it with judgment and justice and from that time forward even for forever the zil the lord of hosts will perform this so daniel saw it in a vision isaiah prophesied about it and jesus shows up on the planet jesus begins his ministry matthew 4 17 says from that time jesus began to preach and say repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand jesus began to preach the kingdom has come near at hand that's what it means it's here it's now it's present it's close you can step into it it's invisible but you can see the influence from it what happens in the naturals reflection of what's happening in the invisible the spiritual realm is influencing the natural realm jesus began to preach repent we talked about repent how do you get into the kingdom because you can't go buy a passport you can't travel to another country get off a plane and show up on the land and now you have arrived there's only one way into god's kingdom there's only one way to come under the direct influence of his government and his kingdom you have to repent sometimes people hear the word repent they think different things but what does repent mean to you or what does repent really mean we've talked about some of what repent means it means i've been living my life going in one direction living without god i'm living in sin doing the best that i can do in life living life the way i want to live life and i realize that my path is taking me into a place of destruction eternal damnation without god i realize that god loves me so much that he sent jesus into this well to die for me and jesus has come into this world because he loves me and he's come to rescue me he's come to rescue you he's come to rescue all that are watching so he's calm he's my he's my savior he's come to rescue me he didn't come to condemn me he came to deliver me he came to put me back in the original condition that he always intended for me to be but i'm living life going in a direction without him i have to be willing to turn him when i turn i turn to him i'm not going to walk away from him i'm going to walk towards him i'm going to put my faith in him i'm going to trust him he gives us eternal life our spirit is regenerated by his spirit we are born again we are born into the kingdom of god you're born into whatever nation or nationality you were born into but in the spirit we've borne into the kingdom of god how did you get here i was born into it how did you become that i was born into it so now that you're born into the kingdom of god he says he says repent be born again come into the kingdom repent so my children were growing up there were times that my children would go off in directions or do certain things when they especially when they were smaller if they were running toward a street out in the road or somewhere where they could get hurt or harm i would raise my voice not in anger but in love saying get back over here where you belong i didn't do it because i was mad at them i did it because i was trying to protect them repent simply means get back where you belong get back into the place where i always created you to be from the very beginning the word repent means talk get back to that place where i called you to be to have dominion not be controlled that's what's in the slant slam sin is your master it rules you your slave to whatever you're a slave to is your master jesus came to free us from all that he didn't design for us to be controlled he ordained for us to be in control what used to control us he puts it up underneath our feet so we can now walk on it and it no longer controls us so when he says repent what he's saying get back over here where you belong you don't belong out there you don't belong like that you don't belong down there come back up here come back over here get back over here where you ball in the kingdom that's why i always desire every nation every language every nationality over here in the kingdom serving me that's where you belong that's what jesus came preaching he said it's here now when you're in a kingdom there's a government we read it anytime you're a citizen of a kingdom that means you have certain rights that come along with your citizenship i was talking to a gentleman two weeks ago he was describing to me telling me about his whole experience of becoming a citizen of the united states he was born in another country he moved here he went through all of the process to become a citizen and he said they required him to study and learn the constitution the constitution of the united states of america he actually was given a test on it and when he passed the test he was given citizenship into the united states of america the the studying of the of the constitution of the united states wasn't because they were trying to keep him out they were just trying to inform him that once you become a citizen these are your rights because a lot of times people don't even know their rights and i would encourage you to study the constitution in the united states of america because you would discover right now that some of your rights are actually being trampled on and people can end up taking advantage of you and trying to do things to you that they have no legal right to do to you if you don't know your rights i think in a spiritual way the enemy is doing the exact same thing he's testing to see do they know their rights if they don't know their rights we can get away with this we can put them in handcuffs we can chain them up we can bind them we can bound them we can afflict them we can create these conditions in their life if they don't know their rights as a child of god we all have rights they're inalienable god-given rights that are revealed to his constitution [Music] in the kingdom there everyone has equal rights if you're in the kingdom it doesn't matter it doesn't matter if you're jew or greek it doesn't matter if you were bond or slave doesn't matter if you're male or fema we're all one in christ jesus the kingdom there's equality we're all treated as equals that doesn't mean that we don't have different responsibilities and roles and assignments but we're all equal in the kingdom this world that's out of control everything is so unstable we've discovered that over the last year the instability everywhere nations are shaken the most stable place for anybody to be is to be in the kingdom of god it is a kingdom that cannot be shaken it is a place that there is protection scripture says in proverbs 18 10 the name of the lord is a strong tower and the righteous run to it and they're safe safest place you could ever find yourself is in the kingdom of god in the kingdom of god he protects us that's the responsibility of government you know i live in newport beach california if someone wants to try to do something illegal breaking my house i would pick up the phone i would call 9-1-1 and the law would come over i expect him to come protect me because of where i live in the laws of where i live and if somebody does something like that i expect protection have the right for that and because i'm a united states citizen i also have the right of the second amendment if they don't get here quick enough i have support to protect myself so in the kingdom of god it's the government's responsibility to protect you there's this moment where a prophet and his servant had woken up and the servant opened up the tent went outside and their enemies had surrounded them so i love the song that we sing about god's got us surrounded even when it looks like our enemies got us surrounded sometimes with our natural eye we see all of the shaking going on in this world but sometimes we lose sight of how god's really got us protected the servant was gripped with fear because the servant was more aware of what was opposing them than he was of who was for them the prophet wasn't even upset or troubled over the situation prophet actually prayed to god would you open his eyes i think a lot of people in american culture that are christians need their eyes opened because they're not living like they're being influenced by the kingdom they're living like they're being influenced by the shaking of nations they're gripped by fear prophet said open their eyes open his eyes and god opened his eyes and he saw all of god's army angels everywhere there was way more for them than there were against them you got to remember that in god's kingdom his name is like a strong tower it's like a fortress you know there were cities that were had walls and towers built around them that people tried for years and years and years to try to get over them and break through to conquer them and they couldn't they were protected the citizens of that of those towns of cities were protected by their towers their their walls are fortresses the enemies couldn't get them even though we're living in this world going through this world we're citizens in god's kingdom in his name he's like a fortress it's a strong tower god himself is that strong tower he surrounds us like a shield he is our protector our defender god's kingdom poison can't even take you out you might have been married to to the black widow you could have gotten a life insurance policy for 10 million dollars and she saw the the the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and she says i'm going to start feeding him straight nine in his coffee every morning so i can cash in on that insurance policy and you drink it and you drink it and you drink it and she's like it's not hurting him because mark 16 says in the kingdom of god if you drink any poisonous thing it shall not hurt you in the kingdom of god snakes may try to jump out and bite you but we just shake them off and we keep on living for the glory of god because we have protection in the kingdom of god god's kingdom doesn't just work when we leave this life god's kingdom works right now in this life because kingdom is not controlled by what happens in this natural world years ago i went to this meeting on embassy row in washington dc first time i've ever seen all of the different embassies that are represented from so many different countries it was actually eye-opening experience a lot of the places were actually decorated to resemble or reflect the countries that they were from you could tell by looking at it well that has to be from that country or or this country they all had gates in front of them some of them even have bob wire across the top of the walls and the gates around them i learned something that that i didn't really know before it's kind of like watching some of those movies that so i'm a dude you know i i like action movies i like blowing up things i like fighting bad guys i like overcoming you know the attack of the enemy i like watching those kind of action-filled movies i i mean i watch chick flicks with christie's sometimes you ever see those movies where you know you got the good guys representing the country but they're in a foreign country they're they're on a mission and there's an embassy from their country in the country where they are but they're not in the embassy they're out in the country on an assignment but the bad guys discover that they're out there on an assignment and the bad guys start chasing them to try to capture them they get in a gunfight they're shooting missiles and throwing grenades at each other and they're running and driving they're doing everything they can to get to that embassy because they know if i can just get in that embassy i'll be safe from my pursuers it's because there's a different law that governs embassies the laws that govern the united states of america do not apply inside the gates of those embassies that i just described on nbc row in washington dc they have a completely different set of laws the laws they have inside those embassies on their compounds are the laws of their country not our country even though they're here in our country they're not governed by our country trust somebody breaks the law and they get to an embassy they're protected from our government they're protected by their government but i love watching those movies where the action has gone down and the guys are being chased by the bad guy and they get into the embassy they crash in you know the jeep blows up like two blocks away they get out and they crawl and they're shooting and they're running and the gates are open and they're saying get inside get inside and they get inside and the enemy stops says we can't touch them now say this with me say you can't touch this did any of you feel like m.c hammer in the movies isn't that what happens they get inside the gates he gets you shut and all of a sudden peace comes on the people it's like we're safe you have to understand as a citizen in god's kingdom the name of the lord is a strong power and we are safe when we run into it it doesn't matter where we are in this world we're in this world but we're not of this world we're not controlled by what influences this world we are controlled and influ by the kingdom of god because our citizenship is in god's kingdom and we come underneath his government we can run to him there's provision there's protection everything you need is in god's kingdom that's why the scripture says seek first god's kingdom and his righteous all these other things will be added to you jesus's primary message was enter the kingdom let me be king of your life let me teach you how to live under my influence so you can live out your divine assignment i didn't come to create a bunch of religious robots i've come to empower you with the identity in which i intended for you to have all along it's hidden in you and it's hidden in me and it's discovered in the kingdom everything you need's in god's kingdom seek first the kingdom of god pursue it go after it to discover who you are who he is what he has for you matthew 7 21 says not everyone who says to me lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven but he who does the will of my father not everyone that calls him lord is actually living and experiencing all the blessings and benefits of the kingdom jesus talked about a lot of things jesus talked about he talked about money he talked about hell he talked about healing he talked about forgiveness the list goes on now he talked about a lot of things but those weren't his main messages those were the benefits that come from being in his kingdom like we live here in california there there are certain benefits from living in california we got the ocean why it's snowing everywhere else in america we're like 70 degrees we're turning our air conditioners on we've got mountains you can go surfing and snowboarding in the same day and if you're smart and skateboard you can do that in between all in jesus name that's a benefit that comes from being a citizen here it's a benefit it's not the main focal point but it's a benefit jesus's main message was the kingdom yeah the benefits of being in his kingdom is that you can be delivered and i want you to know you can be delivered i think much of the churches preaches open-ended deliverance where you're always in therapy and never get freedom you're always going to be struggling but never find a place of wholeness jesus came to put you back together everywhere you were ever broken you don't have to struggle with addiction all your life i am a living example that the sun sets free it's free indeed god can kill you god can deliver you not only can he he will his intention is it's a benefit in god's kingdom freedom and wholeness and deliverance it's it's part of god's you're not controlled by the laws that govern the natural world or the spiritual world that's covering the natural world you're controlled by god's kingdom that's influencing your life while you're living life here on this earth walking around we're in this world but we're not controlled by this world so not everyone who says to me lord lord's going to enter the kingdom now twofold number one the primary thing that he's describing right there because when you read in context you can tell he's talking about not everyone has really been born again they've not been born into god's kingdom because there's a lot of people that just say they're christians but it's very apparent they're not influenced by his kingdom they're more influenced by darkness than they are by light they're not walking in the knowledge that comes from living in the light that doesn't mean they're not learning you know because some people are learning i'm coming out of darkness i've given a light i got to learn this whole new way of life there's grace for that but there's some people they're like he's my lord but they don't live like he's lord because even in learning you can still see that he's lord even in their struggles because of the way they struggle as they struggle to experience and embrace his freedom that he's promised and provides to his lordship it's the benefit of being in the kingdom it's like god heals people that's a benefit that comes from the kingdom that wasn't his main message but that's a benefit that comes from the kingdom thank god it's a benefit that we are not limited to the to the limitations of natural doctors even though i appreciate the higher education and how people have given their lives to learn how to heal people thank god for dog but there are times where they say we can't help you there have been moments where people walked into this room and they were they were terminal cancer we prayed for them and doctors said we can't help you but god did for them what men couldn't do for them there are benefits in the kingdom [Applause] he says not everyone that says to me so there could be some people that are authentically genuinely born again they're saved they've given their life to jesus but they've never discovered their rights as citizens in the kingdom and so they're living way below their privilege as king i heard about this couple that won a a uh they won a trip on a a very nice cruise i mean it was like it was incredible cruise like very high-end type crews they they want it it's like some type of raffle they want it and they were poor people they wanted and they thought this is great we've never been on a cruise we're going to go on a cruise and so they they went and they got all these little they got crackers and cheese and all this stuff so that they could make themselves lunch and got the food and everything they needed and so they got on the cruise ship and they went into their little cruise cargo that they slept in and they never came out the entire time they were in it and they just looked out the window and looked at the water and thought this is so awesome where are the crews we're going to the destination not realizing that everything on that cruise was provided with your entry onto the cruise they could eat anything they that was provided every meal had been provided for everything came with getting on the cruise but they were living life below simply because they did not know they were living in darkness they were living under the influence of something that had formed their mindset eventually like day five the the staff of the ship came knocked on the door and said are you all right are you still here they're like yeah we're doing good we're just eating some crackers and eating some lunch and like why are you doing that all of everything everything in the buffet everything they provide it's all for you and they're like what i think many people in the kingdom of god live their life just like i'm just happy to be on the cruise look out the window see the water not realizing that there is an entire ship it's been date available for you and let me just say something real quick to these people that are just looking for a soft christianity you want a cruise ship experience just let me get on the cruise ship let somebody cater me serve me and take me to my destination this ship that god calls us into is a battleship and everything we need has been provided on this battleship everything we need you have to read to discover your rights you have to read what god desires for you in matthew chapter 7 verses 24-25 he said therefore whoever hears these sayings of mine these words whoever hears my words and does him he can exchange my word with doing them to get the outcome of god's promises it requires your obedience if you do not obey you do not get god's intended outcome god gives us promises but it's an invitation to participation he gives you the grace the power to respond in obedience therefore whoever hears he sangs about and does them i will liken him to a wise man look at the person next to you and say i'm pretty smart today and if you don't believe that the person that said i'm pretty smart today isn't as smart as what they look like just inside your mind say you look a lot better in the future than you look right now he says i liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain decided the floods came the winds blew beat on that house and it did not fall for it was founded on the rock there was a storm we've been through a storm there are going to be storms in life and as we continue to move forward in life there are going to be moments where we experience the storm every moment of life doesn't have to be a storm and even when you are in the storm you can have peace while you go through the storm we're living in the last days sometimes people watch too much of the media and they listen to all these other things that are trying to program you to rob you of your kingdom benefits people are stressed out filled with fear and anxiety then you come to church and the preacher's always talking we're in the last days buckle up you're like it reinforces what all the other media is saying but you don't have to walk in fear when the storm comes he says right here when you hear these words of my and you do them it's like running to the strong tower his name there's safety in it safest place you could ever be is right here he said and i will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock we are building our life on jesus christ the chief cornerstone we are his lively stones he's building a spiritual house we are in his kingdom and he is the one that is building our life as we listen to his word as we get into his word so i've been telling everybody now for what two months at least kill the bible get this kind of bible don't get electronic bible god forbid that we ever experience persecution to the level that certain countries experience persecution because we think persecution doesn't exist we think the only persecution that exists as a persecution we experience but you have to understand there are people and have been people throughout the years centuries and in generations that have lost their life for simply being a committed believer in jesus persecution happens all over the world simply because people love jesus we have just been afforded the luxuries of living in a country where there is freedom of religion not freedom from religion freedom to believe in jesus freedom to own a bible freedom to open up our doors or at least they try to challenge that freedom to open up our doors preach the gospel preach the most you know somebody asked me the other day what is the most important thing that you could be doing right now i said the most important thing i could be doing right now is opening up my bible and preaching the gospel of my lord and savior's kingdom that's the most important thing for me to do right now he is the rock his kingdom is the rock and we build our life on that by following his instructions so when the storms come when the floods come and there's a worldwide economic collapse and there's upheaval and turmoil with all different kinds of things that are happening in this world even though that may beat on our life and we feel it it won't ultimately be able to cause us to fall because we're citizens in god's kingdom we're getting into his word and when you know your privileges you know your rights and something challenges that you say i'm not accepting that i'm not going to listen to that i'm not going to allow that to be at work in my life why not because the word of god says that that's why i'm not letting that rule me because this rules me this is my privilege this is my right these are the benefits that come from serving the lord jesus christ i will forget not any of his benefits and because we built our life as citizens in god's kingdom when the storms of life rage around us nothing can take us out take us down god's got us jesus is lord over our life he's watching over his birth his government is right there the enemy's attacking him angels go to work right now god protects us takes care of us he is our lord our savior he is the author and the finisher he is the beginning he is the end and the good work he started he's faithful to finish it he did not bring you this far to not take you the rest of the way jesus said i'm going away to prepare a place for you that where i am you may be also and in my father's house there are many mansions and if it were not so i would have told you so you know if i go away to prepare a place for you i will come back and get you so that where i am you can be also he's coming back to get us when he comes back he's coming into the eastern sky it's not revelation chapter 19 coming back because when he goes back revelation chapter 19 he's going to be riding on a white horse his hair is going to be his flames of flesh hair's going to be as white as wool his eyes are going to be his flames of fire and out of his mouth is going to come a sharp two-edged sword but when he comes back for his bride he's going to come in the clouds and we which are alive and remain will be caught up in the air to be with our lord as we leave this earth gravity loses it's hold our bodies are going to be transformed into a glorified body that will know no corruption that will know no sin there will know no pain that will be able to endure anything and everything you're going to receive a glorified body nobody knows exactly what that's going to be like but we can see in acts chapter 1 when jesus ascended to the father there were 500 people standing there watching him gravity lost its whole he began to go out people may see you begin to go up and then we're going to spend seven years with jesus in heaven the place that he's going to prepare for us why because he is our protector we are citizens in his kingdom it's not been appointed unto us great wrath we are not gonna go through the wrath of the locusts going around in revelation that inflicts intense pain on all of the citizens of the earth except for the hundred and forty four thousand end time witnesses they're the only ones that will not feel the pain hope i'm not losing you in all this but you if you read your bibles you'll learn all this and god is going to deliver us because he's our protector he is our fortress he is our he is our safe place we can run into him he will take us out and the tribulation will happen and then the end of tribulation [Applause] jesus bridles up that white horse when i see him getting on that white horse i'm gonna run over and hop on the back he's going to say jay get your own horse i ride alone i'll say giddy up let's go it says and ten thousand of his saints will come back with him and that's where we come back revelation chapter 19 and then that's where the beginning of the thousand-year millennial reign begins to happen and that's where the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of our god we will rule and reign with him right here on this earth the lamb lays down with the lion there will be worldwide peace not like the antichrist tries to give in the first three and a half years this will be peace that brings worldwide harmony because jesus himself will rule right here his kingdom will be on this earth in a way it's never been on this earth come on somebody [Applause] i want to pray with you today i want you to bow your head and close your eyes you're in this place you've never given your life to jesus christ i want to pray with you to do that he loves you he cares for you he is for you he's not against you he's come to rescue you to be your savior to be your lord he invites you and he draws you
