I hope I answered my question, right?
Speaker: Did answer the question? You answered, yeah, because it it's because you believe the message. Yeah, i my apostle said one ask he doesn't like to answer a question when they ask you a question. rather than another that' But the Bible says the Holy Spirit is our earnest deposit. Yes. It's our down payment that, hey, look.
Speaker: So God's saying, oh, look, all of these promises and all the great stuff and... heaven and everything here i'm proving to you i'm going to show you this is all real so i'm giving you an earnest deposit to prove to you this is the proof that what i've said i'm going to do and i just love this okay so not only that you get the holy spirit has a deposit but God works miracles among us through what the power the Holy Spirit yeah because why because of our faith in Christ right yes our our faith and ah God is a God of miracle you know the Bible says you know God is a father of spirits God relates to us
Speaker: by the Holy Spirit to our spirit. All right? And that's how God communicates with us. Yeah, God is he's a master communicator. He can talk to you to you your your soul.
Speaker: He can talk to you. Hey, God can talk to anything. And they have that ability to recognize His voice. Wow. Can imagine that?
Speaker: You know, that God... talked ge even Jesus talked to trees and they will obey his command. So God is a master communicator.
Speaker: And the Holy Spirit is the one that reveals the presence and the power, everything to to us. So I'm going to encourage you. I know some of you, maybe today is your first time that you are listening to this message.
Speaker: you know I'm going highly encourage you to go back to a few weeks back. And I wish we don't have time to do a recap. but We've been having an amazing time with the Holy Spirit, yeah talking about you know the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Who is the Holy Spirit? Is the Holy Spirit real today or is it things of the past or what this is all about?
Speaker: and The Holy Spirit is real. He's the one that reveals the presence of God to you when you pray, when you worship. you know The Holy Spirit yeah it it is our best friend. He is my best friend.
Speaker: yeah he He knows everything. yeah He knows about my life, even before was born. Okay. He knew. He knew every detail about my life. He knew, you know, that I'm going to be in the Omaha today.
Speaker: And, you know, I came to USA because of the Holy Spirit. He spoke to me, told me that, hey, I'm going to have you go to Omaha, Nebraska. That's how I ended up. That is a miracle itself. Yeah.
Speaker: Yeah. That's how I ended up here too because I'm from Ohio. for the ministry of the Holy Spirit has been made available. So, you know, nobody... can I say something? Okay, yeah I just really quickly, I just wanted to say this because sometimes people get so hung up on them being able to meet you know their spouse and get married to the right person. and And so I just want to share this really quick. I'm not going to share our whole story, but God had to bring my husband from Togo, West Africa to Omaha, Nebraska. And he had to bring me. Togo isn't a Zion. It's in heaven, man. And me from Ohio.
Speaker: And here's the thing. You didn't know where Omaha, Nebraska was. No, I didn't know. I didn't. when i care I didn't either. I knew it was in the middle of the U.S. somewhere, but I didn't know exactly where. I had to get a map out. This was before Google the Maps and all that stuff was a big thing.
Speaker: um You know, so I had to I looked on a map and had to see where um that was in MapQuest days when that's how you got everywhere. But I had to look it up and say, oh, that's ah exactly where it is.
Speaker: Because God knew. Yeah. and Here's the thing, when you when you are running after the Holy Spirit and your you're listening to His voice, He's going to order your footsteps so you're in the right place at the right time.
Speaker: So instead of trying to make things come to pass, whether that's a prophetic word that was spoken over to you, a promise of God, or you know you want to get married, or you want to buy a house, whatever it is, if you just continually follow the voice of the Holy Spirit and keep pushing forward, He's going to order your footsteps so that you are in that right place at the right time. That way, you know, you the Holy Spirit even gave you my name.
Speaker: Yeah. Yeah. so this is a beautiful how Holy Spirit, you know, orchestrated my my steps. and You know what? The key for all of that, folks, there's nobody get hungry, all right, for God.
Speaker: and by the same time, you don't fulfill, God does not fulfill the desires of your heart. Go after him. That's what I can tell you. hey honey The rest is history.
Speaker: If you go after the Holy Spirit, yeah he will arrange your life. Oh, you know, one of the scriptures says, by the spirit of God, he beautified the heaven.
Speaker: May I prophesy to you? know I'm putting my opinion in to some of you, but that's not what I mean by the way. bye ah May I prophesy to you that in the name of Jesus, may the Holy Spirit beautify your life.
Speaker: That all the bitterness in your life must be cut off. yeah May the Holy Spirit bring sweetness into your life. May the Holy Spirit bring the answer to your prayers. May the Holy Spirit open your spiritual your eyes so you can see the future that he has prepared for you.
Speaker: May the Holy Spirit elevate you, gives you promotion Whatever area that you need the Holy Spirit right now, you need God to step in. I pray, I prophesy.
Speaker: Like yeah the prophet spoke to the wing and said, well, the Lord asked me to speak over dry bones. I speak to your dry bones in the name of Jesus.
Speaker: May life come to you. May God's provision find you. May God take your life.
Speaker: Take that mess and make a miracle out of it. amen You will be a testimony to everyone that comes in contact with you. You are like a tree planted by the river of waters and you are bringing forth fruits in every season.
Speaker: No dry season in your life. In the name of Jesus, i speak over you. I speak over your health. I speak over your children. I speak over your spouse, your relationship.
Speaker: In the name of Jesus. And I decree and I declare over your life that you are not a loser. Amen. Listen to me. Some of you, you are but being so hard on yourself.
Speaker: you are you are You are condemning yourself for what? Nonsense that enemy has has been using to to talk you out of your position. No, draw the line right now as I'm speaking to you. Say no more of this nonsense in the name of Jesus.
Speaker: I am the righteousness of god in Christ Jesus in the name of Jesus I am victorious in the name of Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit through the ministry of angels I release the blessings long life provision into in your way may God locate you and let his face shines upon you right this very moment Jesus said, your new season, is it set time for you to rise above every situation that you are going through? amen You are winning.
Speaker: You have won and you are winning on top of it. In the name of Jesus. I feel like I need to prophesy to some of you. and And I thank God for what God is doing with you.
Speaker: In Jesus mighty name. Wow. I'm excited for this. We haven't started teaching anything, but that's okay. That's what love with the Holy Spirit. I love the Holy Spirit. When He shows up, hey, you get out of the way and let Him take be the driver.
Speaker: When the Holy Spirit drives your life, you'll never lack for anything. Everything's going to go well with you. So I'm excited. Yeah, well, and I just, I love what you said, because even Jesus told the disciples, don't do anything until you receive the Holy Spirit. Like, this is important. yeah You need the Holy Spirit before you go out. And we need that same thing. I think, you know, when people, we talked to last night, week or last time you gave a little teaser about the language of the Spirit. But you think about, Paul said, I thank my God.
Speaker: that I speak in tongues more than you all. Why? Yeah, this is a question that sometimes, that's what we will be addressing. Can I ask a question? Yes, go ahead. Okay, well, we'll never say.
Speaker: Sorry, I'm excited for you because but I'm going debunk some of the lies from the picture of hell about, you know, praying the Holy Spirit. Is it for today or it's for yesterday? It's for today, let me tell you.
Speaker: Yeah, it is for today. If you know how to speak, you, yeah, oh my goodness, this is ah this is this is beautiful. It is for today. Don't be deceived.
Speaker: Yeah. It is for today. It's not from the devil. For those who believe from the devil, you better be careful. Don't blaspheme the Holy Spirit. Don't call something that is holy demonic.
Speaker: Yeah. it may cost you your salvation. Don't go to that route. If you don't understand, what sometimes we we don't understand everything the first time.
Speaker: But ask you can ask him questions. Holy Spirit, you know I challenge you for all of you who, maybe if you know someone, or everyone, if all of you, Maybe you have a question about, you know, is it the Holy Spirit or speaking tongues or praying the Holy Spirit for today. I challenge you. Why don't you just the Holy Spirit? Hey, if you really, really want to know, ask Him the question.
Speaker: Yeah. If you are real, show me if this is real. What an honest question. yeah Don't just go against it because when people would start arguing, that tells me they don't want to know.
Speaker: They've been driven by devils. don't want to know. who So, you know, honest person, you know, ask a simple question. yeah Say, Father, if this is real, I want to know.
Speaker: Remember, he's your papa. yeah He's a good father. If they say, my sheep knows my voice and the voice of the stranger, they will not follow.
Speaker: Because he's a good father, you ask him a question. he will He will, oh my goodness, he will answer the question. He's going to reveal himself to you. If he if hey yeah if you know God, if you know the Lord Jesus, he's he's amazing.
Speaker: He's not going to cut your heads off. punch your face or destroy you because he asked a question. yeah No, ask him a question. Father, if this is real, I want to know.
Speaker: Talk to me. Yeah, he will speak to you. So i don't I know some people, don't don't hurt yourself. And don't go to that route.
Speaker: Holy Spirit is for today. Don't blaspheme the Holy Spirit. I'm cautioning you. yeah I'm warning you. don don't Don't go to that route. Stay away from that you know ah doubt yeah false doctrine.
Speaker: Ask him the question. If he's God, if he's your father, he will talk to you because every parent loves to talk to their children. and said He said, if mean you know if for you that if you love your father, I said, natural,
Speaker: human being, you love your kid, how much more your father, what which is in heaven. So God is great is better than your your natural parent anyway. Well, I think maybe in case someone's not familiar with the scripture, why oh yeah saying, you know, you don't blaspheme the Holy Spirit, why that's so important is because that is the only sin that the Bible says you can't be forgiven for.
Speaker: It's blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Yeah, and so calling something which no one can argue is not in the Bible and was the Holy Spirit in the Bible, calling something that is in the Bible clearly the devil, that's dangerous, calling the Holy Spirit the devil. You don't want to go there. I don't want anybody to make that mistake. Don't find yourself in that place.
Speaker: I don't know what to tell you. thats Don't do it. Don't p play with fire. ah Yeah. So, can i but you can ask questions. yeah yeah ask what God knows your heart. if you You can fool Him.
Speaker: I think we should take a time where we go through all the scriptures on it and explain it. yeah But I just wanted to say one more thing on that. No, i'm not the foundation I think we are laying the foundation today, maybe in the next program. We're going to stay on this topic because some of the things that we're going to debunk. We want to help you and understand all the lies, all right?
Speaker: This is ah is it is a year, it ah it is a season of truth. We must speak the truth. he if he The truth was will set you free if you know the truth.
Speaker: So and that's why im I'm trying my best by the help of the Holy Spirit. to communicate this with you. It's okay to ask questions.
Speaker: it Yeah, it is. And study it out. I think one of the things I just want to mention before we, you know, really do the deep dive and go into the Scripture is that one of the erroneous teachings out there is that the Holy Spirit passed away with the disciples, that it was just for the disciples to you know, why they would need the Holy Spirit. And we don't, I don't understand.
Speaker: We need the Holy Ghost today, but there's this teaching that it was just for that time and it passed away. So if that's true, then we should be able to look at church history and see that after the disciples were gone, the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues, it was just gone, but that's not historically accurate.
Speaker: um You can see the ministry of the Holy Spirit continued speaking in tongues, continued through the early church. you know And so I just wanted to mention that because sometimes people come up with these doctrines that don't, not only they do they not make sense biblically because you cannot support that in the scripture, but they don't historically even line up.
Speaker: um And the only scripture in the Bible and the one that people try to use is they say, oh, see, um this scripture says that when, He which is perfect is calm which talking about the second coming of Christ, which let me ask you a question has Jesus come again?
Speaker: Just check it. Has he come again? no No No, not yet. We're still here. i know he I know by the way he want to come back. I told him wait I got a lot to do for you first it it that's my joke so It's true. Well, that's true. Yeah, we got well because we got a lot to do for Jesus before he returned back because Yeah, so, okay. So that anyway that scripture, yeah it says that speaking in tongues will pass away out when Jesus comes again, because once the second coming of Christ happens, we won't need to speak in tongues anymore. It won't be necessary. We'll be with Jesus.
Speaker: And it also says knowledge will pass away. Last time I checked. knowledge hadn't passed away yet. no So people paul completely pulled that scripture out of context. And I am amazed that so many Christians have grabbed hold of that without reading, just read, just read the scriptures right around there. I mean, it's so clear. It takes ah I mean, it takes effort to really mess that scripture up and yet people have done it and they hold on it like they're wrong interpretations. The scripture doesn't even say that. I mean, it's so clear yeah what it's saying and yet people say, see if passed away. do believe that, you know, using using your common sense will save you from a lot of troubles. yeah
Speaker: Most of the time people don't use their common sense. and Also, when you're gonna read your Bible, when you grab your Bible to read, don't read your Bible upside down. Just make, don't don't read your Bible like a newspaper.
Speaker: Just... you know You know what's proof that sometimes it's so so sad people don't use their common sense. I was just, I could not believe how quickly people jumped on the bandwagon for how many there are only two genders male and female and yet people jumped on these bandwagons of like how many i don't know 96 96 genders how do you even what a confusion oh my goodness you see common sense there's the money xx and xy chromosomes there's two yes two genders and yet people even science is be proven by side they ask that you believe science but they are they are confused man they follow the science except when we don't want you to
Speaker: Except when it doesn't support our narrative. No. The Bible didn't change. It's the same male. God created male and female. Yeah, we we pray for them. We do. but and We cast out devils in Jesus. And we love the people. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker: Because here's the thing. They don't know their identity in Christ. yeah And so really what it is is there can we've told people that, you know, you came, you... evolution happened there's no c creator no god your life has no purpose there's no life after death there's no consequences for your actions so basically you don't matter your identity you know and then we wonder why people struggle with their identifying identity no you need to know that you were created by god for a purpose and loved by him And if you aren't solid in that, if our society isn't solid in that, then you see people not because they did something wrong, but because we live in a fallen world with doctrines of devils. The Bible says the spiritual warfare, if you look at what it's talking about, it's talking about those ideologies that it calls doctrines of devils and this multi-
Speaker: gender thing, it is a doctrine of devils that has woven its way into our society to get people confused because it's trying to separate them from the identity that God gave to them and who God created them to be so that they don't fulfill their purpose. People get so wrapped up And they become so consumed by this idea of their identity being connected to a gender that they miss who God called them to be and what God called them to do.
Speaker: Because they're fighting for something that doesn't even make sense. Even chicken knows that they are chickens. Yeah. And they understand. Dogs know their dogs. Yeah. Even dogs know that there's a chihuahua.
Speaker: and Male and female. Cow, they know there's only two. What's wrong with mankind? Yeah. You know? but Now, they are not the but theyre not the first one. Remember from the beginning, from Book of Genesis, because of ah the corruption, yeah because of Lucifer,
Speaker: everything has begun from the beginning. And so, but there's a way out of all of that. That's why we must speak the truth. Yeah, and love on people that are confused. The only thing that will save people from this demonic doctrine, the only thing that will save them from evil is for us, we the church, that we speak the truth.
Speaker: So, and so, praying in the Holy Spirit, it is for today. And I'm proudly, I have breaking news for all of you.
Speaker: I speak in tongues and I love it. It's so yummy.
Speaker: Okay, all right. So, I want to show you. can i ah At the end of this message, if you don't speak in the Holy Ghost, I'm i'm um i'm speaking to you. You will speak in tongue.
Speaker: Trust me. well and Yeah, you will, because the Holy Spirit is going to get hold of you. Yes. And it's going to cause you. You're going to start talking. Nothing like it. It's so sweet. If you rely on what the Scriptures say, absolutely.
Speaker: So, I just want to share this really quickly. Yes. and so We don't have a lot of time though. know, it just went so fast. But I just wanted to share this my own experience. So I got saved and ah filled with the Holy Ghost speaking in tongues.
Speaker: Now I was not raised in church, which at first I was kind of like, after I met Jesus, I was like, I you know wish I would have been. But then... I started going to church and I was like, thank God I wasn't because I didn't get indoctrinated with lies.
Speaker: So I was a spirit-filled Christian, baby Christian. And before I started going to church really regularly, I had read pretty much the entire Bible on my own. And, you know, the Holy Spirit was teaching me things and giving me revelation on things. And um so I started going to church.
Speaker: And I was shocked. I could not believe there were Christians that didn't believe in speaking in tongues. I was like, wait a second. I read this book.
Speaker: Did you read the same book I read? How can you believe speaking in tongues is of the devil? egg mean, did you read the book? I couldn't believe shocked.
Speaker: I was shocked because Christians, listen, Christians did not believe the word of God that was testifying of the Holy Spirit, just like the Pharisees who were supposed to be the guardians of the word of God didn't recognize Jesus. Wow.
Speaker: Wow. You think about that. Now it's there was the religious people then and it's religious people now that reject Jesus. the purpose and the ministry of the holy spirit that's proof that the enemy is afraid of the holy spirit and you speaking in tongues just like the enemy was afraid of jesus you know is one you know if you want i'm trying to create an uh what you for you everything we are telling you today to make you hungry that's all yeah so next week we're going to kind of dive into it show you from the scriptures and now
Speaker: make it you I want you to promise this. make You're going to make sure that you take you write down the Scriptures yes and you go back home or you open the Bible for yourself. yeah And just a simple question you need to ask the Holy Spirit. If a father, if a this is you, I want to know if a this is from you.
Speaker: yeah That's it. That's an honest person. If you're serious about knowing God, you are allowed to ask this question.
Speaker: All right? Don't, don't. Yeah. So I'm going to encourage you. Just ask the question. But making sure when he speaks to you, you listen. Alright, don't resist because you can't fool God.
