WEBVTT

00:12.042 --> 00:17.963
[SPEAKER_01]: So John chapter four, we're going to kind of take a little bit of a curve, if you will.

00:18.744 --> 00:22.844
[SPEAKER_01]: But we're going to read verses seven through eight and then verses twenty one through twenty four.

00:23.465 --> 00:28.566
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, verses seven through eight and then verses twenty one through twenty four.

00:28.686 --> 00:32.467
[SPEAKER_01]: It says this says a woman of Samaria came to draw water.

00:32.927 --> 00:37.968
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me a drink, Jesus said to her, for his disciples had gone down into a town to buy food.

00:38.448 --> 00:40.809
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, just laying the foundation of what this scene looks like here.

00:40.829 --> 00:42.169
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, now jump down to verse twenty one.

00:43.050 --> 00:56.595
[SPEAKER_01]: So as Jesus told her, believe me woman, an hour is coming when you will worship the Father, neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem, use some inheritance worship what you do not know.

00:57.315 --> 01:01.917
[SPEAKER_01]: We worship what we do know because salvation is from the Jews.

01:03.238 --> 01:03.638
[SPEAKER_01]: Next slide.

01:05.695 --> 01:09.386
[SPEAKER_01]: But an hour is coming and is now here.

01:09.868 --> 01:10.490
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

01:10.991 --> 01:12.516
[SPEAKER_01]: When the true worshipers

01:13.052 --> 01:17.014
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll worship the Father and Spirit and in truth.

01:17.634 --> 01:20.696
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, the Father wants such people to worship Him.

01:20.816 --> 01:29.701
[SPEAKER_01]: God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship Him and Spirit and in truth.

01:29.781 --> 01:30.781
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

01:31.282 --> 01:31.982
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

01:32.022 --> 01:37.085
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you're taking notes this morning, the title of today's message is, let it flow.

01:37.105 --> 01:39.246
[SPEAKER_01]: Let it flow.

01:39.266 --> 01:40.567
[SPEAKER_01]: Not let it go.

01:40.587 --> 01:41.087
[SPEAKER_01]: Let it flow.

01:45.894 --> 01:46.395
[SPEAKER_01]: Let it flow.

01:46.415 --> 01:49.137
[SPEAKER_01]: Somebody say, let it flow.

01:49.157 --> 01:50.599
[SPEAKER_01]: Turn it up.

01:50.959 --> 01:52.601
[SPEAKER_01]: Certain somebody and say, let it flow.

01:52.621 --> 01:55.584
[SPEAKER_01]: Now tell them with some soul.

01:55.624 --> 01:56.845
[SPEAKER_01]: Say, let it flow, brother.

01:56.865 --> 01:59.748
[SPEAKER_01]: All right.

02:00.629 --> 02:00.869
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

02:00.989 --> 02:02.090
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't forget about the sisters.

02:06.595 --> 02:07.096
[SPEAKER_01]: All right.

02:07.636 --> 02:08.357
[SPEAKER_01]: Praise God.

02:10.225 --> 02:18.209
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, today we're going to kind of go in a different angle when it comes to the things of the spirit and living a supernatural lifestyle.

02:18.229 --> 02:26.453
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to take a turn in this and I want to talk about the Holy Ghost and relation to our worship.

02:27.092 --> 02:27.392
[SPEAKER_01]: Amen.

02:27.992 --> 02:30.273
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, we love to worship around here, right?

02:30.773 --> 02:34.954
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a big emphasis of who we are and what we believe in all of that.

02:35.554 --> 02:41.756
[SPEAKER_01]: If worship was still going right now and I didn't get to preach, I am a hundred percent okay with that, okay?

02:42.036 --> 02:47.917
[SPEAKER_01]: Because it's not about me, it's not about anything else, it's about the Lord, amen.

02:48.317 --> 02:53.979
[SPEAKER_01]: And so we put a strong emphasis on worship and we love worship and that's why we do what we do here.

02:54.439 --> 03:01.188
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, but how do you know that the spirit of the Lord loves to move in worship?

03:02.409 --> 03:11.421
[SPEAKER_01]: Now not instrumental just music and people singing, but I'd say he loves to move in worship.

03:12.580 --> 03:22.069
[SPEAKER_01]: True, genuine, raw, organic worship, you will see the power of the Holy Spirit begin to move, Amen.

03:22.849 --> 03:36.702
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's important to understand that at this point of time and scripture in John chapter four that people understood worship really only at a base level up into this point.

03:37.789 --> 03:42.793
[SPEAKER_01]: They've been worshiping for hundreds and you may say even thousands of years at this point.

03:43.433 --> 03:57.403
[SPEAKER_01]: But then Jesus shows up to the scene and he not only addresses worship, but he introduces a form of worship that nobody has ever seen and heard or even imagined before.

03:59.082 --> 04:10.137
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I know you know how to worship, but there is a day coming and there is a day that is right now when the true worshipers will worship and spirit and in truth.

04:12.380 --> 04:17.006
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, all they've ever known is just a religious way of worshiping.

04:19.113 --> 04:23.435
[SPEAKER_01]: They've only known what has really happened in all of history between.

04:23.835 --> 04:30.018
[SPEAKER_01]: You could say, Genesis and Malachi when worship was very ceremonial.

04:30.118 --> 04:32.019
[SPEAKER_01]: It was very religious.

04:32.099 --> 04:39.822
[SPEAKER_01]: It was very ritualistic in ways where every time they worship, there would be a sacrifice that was offered.

04:39.862 --> 04:42.964
[SPEAKER_01]: And there would be a certain way you had to do things.

04:43.104 --> 04:47.506
[SPEAKER_01]: And there was all of these rules and regulations when it came to worship.

04:48.478 --> 04:52.782
[SPEAKER_01]: And as a matter of fact, really every act of worship required blood.

04:54.684 --> 04:59.890
[SPEAKER_01]: In many times, oftentimes, an act of worship even required death.

05:00.851 --> 05:02.552
[SPEAKER_01]: There had to be death that took place.

05:03.233 --> 05:05.315
[SPEAKER_01]: So in Genesis chapter twenty eight,

05:06.282 --> 05:18.570
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a bird offering that's offered up to the Lord and the Bible says at that time that that bird offering unto the Lord as a form of worship was a sweet aroma.

05:20.091 --> 05:21.112
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a sweet aroma.

05:22.623 --> 05:31.134
[SPEAKER_01]: So to the Lord, that was what was honorable, that was what was acceptable, was that kind of form of worship.

05:31.414 --> 05:39.104
[SPEAKER_01]: And when you think about the early days of the Old Testament, many times more than not, they were required to worship in a temple.

05:40.443 --> 05:42.484
[SPEAKER_01]: It looked different, okay?

05:42.524 --> 05:48.287
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's not like now where you can just bow down anywhere you want to and just begin to worship.

05:48.867 --> 05:52.909
[SPEAKER_01]: They had a lot of rules and it was like, if you're going to worship, you're going to go to the temple.

05:53.610 --> 06:01.374
[SPEAKER_01]: And the only way to be really cleansed from the trap of sin and death was to kill something that was living.

06:02.500 --> 06:26.328
[SPEAKER_01]: sacrifice to make a sacrifice so it's no wonder all the way really thousands of years later when it comes to worship a lot of times people don't like to talk about worship and you want to know why well because we don't like messy things we don't like messy things and anyone whose carnal certainly doesn't want to talk about the death of the flesh

06:28.645 --> 06:33.769
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I'm going to worship, but you're telling me I've got a kill who I am first.

06:34.590 --> 06:36.091
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't like that, right?

06:36.431 --> 06:37.752
[SPEAKER_01]: And then people don't like that.

06:38.353 --> 06:40.575
[SPEAKER_01]: Cardinal people don't want to die to themselves.

06:41.395 --> 06:41.736
[SPEAKER_01]: Hello?

06:43.277 --> 06:52.605
[SPEAKER_01]: So we offer really such a shallow, low level worship sometimes because we think worship should be organized and convenient.

06:54.055 --> 07:16.431
[SPEAKER_01]: I have been in church services and Melissa has been with me in many church services where we've been in churches even close to here and far from here that there's thousands of people in the room and not one person's lifting up their hands and going after the heart of the father and it's like Melissa and I feel like we are completely weirdos in that kind of atmosphere.

07:17.525 --> 07:18.986
[SPEAKER_01]: We feel like we don't fit.

07:19.846 --> 07:25.048
[SPEAKER_01]: It's because worship has become so convenient for people.

07:25.548 --> 07:35.872
[SPEAKER_01]: We have such a shallow level of worship, and we think, well, if I just sing a song or if I just join along in a church service of some sort of form worship, then that's good.

07:35.912 --> 07:40.414
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all that I can give, that's great, and we keep it at such a low level.

07:41.494 --> 07:43.315
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm grateful here that we go after God.

07:45.028 --> 07:55.586
[SPEAKER_01]: It'll matter what kind of song it is, an old song, a new song, whatever, doesn't matter how quiet, how loud, how many people we do have in the stage or don't.

07:56.006 --> 07:59.031
[SPEAKER_01]: We always go after the heart of the Father in worship.

08:00.320 --> 08:01.060
[SPEAKER_01]: It's amazing.

08:01.681 --> 08:17.971
[SPEAKER_01]: It's amazing that we can have somebody like Jerry Hobbs come here last week and introduce songs that you even never heard of or you haven't heard in thirty forty fifty years and we can worship the same way that we just did just now.

08:20.992 --> 08:25.034
[SPEAKER_01]: because it's not the song, it's the spirit of worship.

08:25.794 --> 08:30.876
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the heart that you have of worship, to worship the king, hallelujah.

08:32.936 --> 08:37.878
[SPEAKER_01]: And just let me tell you something, worship was never designed to be easy.

08:39.419 --> 08:40.759
[SPEAKER_01]: It was never designed to be easy.

08:41.800 --> 08:47.702
[SPEAKER_01]: And many times more than not, worship feels like to us kind of an uphill climb.

08:48.826 --> 08:59.430
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's like, man, we just, we went through a whole lot in our week or whatever it may be and we come in here to worship and sometimes it feels like, man, we just gotta climb this mountain to get to the top of the mountain again.

09:00.351 --> 09:01.651
[SPEAKER_01]: It could feel that way sometimes.

09:01.711 --> 09:02.932
[SPEAKER_01]: It could feel like a steep climb.

09:02.972 --> 09:09.175
[SPEAKER_01]: This is why the scripture say in Psalms chapter twenty four, who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?

09:10.195 --> 09:11.416
[SPEAKER_01]: He who has what?

09:11.976 --> 09:14.377
[SPEAKER_01]: Clean hands and appear heart.

09:16.085 --> 09:18.867
[SPEAKER_01]: How do we achieve that through the act of worship?

09:19.667 --> 09:24.450
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you want to send the hill of the Lord, then you've got to get into a place of worship.

09:25.371 --> 09:27.072
[SPEAKER_01]: Who wants to send the hill of the Lord?

09:27.112 --> 09:28.432
[SPEAKER_01]: The Lord says, right?

09:29.353 --> 09:31.554
[SPEAKER_01]: Those that have clean hands and appear hard.

09:32.635 --> 09:35.797
[SPEAKER_01]: So when he asked that to us, I say, Lord, that's me.

09:36.777 --> 09:38.358
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to send your hill, Lord.

09:39.199 --> 09:40.460
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to climb the mountain.

09:41.593 --> 09:44.674
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to come and I want to go as high as you want to take me.

09:45.235 --> 09:45.635
[SPEAKER_01]: Amen.

09:46.135 --> 09:50.677
[SPEAKER_01]: But I know it's going to start by that cleansing and that purification.

09:50.717 --> 09:55.419
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, there's repentance that's involved in all of that, but that's all forms of worship.

09:57.920 --> 10:00.821
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Pastor, when I show up, it's just easy to praise God.

10:01.501 --> 10:03.122
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, praise God for you.

10:04.638 --> 10:06.079
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm glad it's that way for you.

10:06.439 --> 10:14.665
[SPEAKER_01]: But I can tell you right now that there are some people that have to command some things within them to die when they show up on Sunday mornings.

10:15.086 --> 10:15.526
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now.

10:15.866 --> 10:20.429
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of us have to disconnect from the mess of the week in the business of life.

10:21.670 --> 10:26.614
[SPEAKER_01]: Sometimes worship is easy, but sometimes I got to command my soul to worship.

10:27.835 --> 10:29.276
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, have you ever been there before?

10:29.776 --> 10:32.698
[SPEAKER_01]: Where it may be last Sunday, it was really easy to worship.

10:32.938 --> 10:38.121
[SPEAKER_01]: But maybe you come into the next Sunday and you are commanding your soul to begin to worship.

10:39.322 --> 10:40.783
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's just the way it is.

10:42.524 --> 10:45.105
[SPEAKER_01]: People say all the time, well, you have to feel it first.

10:46.566 --> 10:47.727
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to feel nothing.

10:47.867 --> 10:49.148
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what you're trying to feel.

10:49.168 --> 10:52.990
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't got to feel nothing.

10:53.010 --> 10:56.292
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I got, if I don't feel the Holy Ghost and I ain't worshiping.

10:57.268 --> 11:00.232
[SPEAKER_01]: The Holy Ghost is already here, so I don't know what you're looking for.

11:00.252 --> 11:03.958
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what you're trying to feel.

11:04.578 --> 11:05.299
[SPEAKER_01]: He's already here.

11:07.703 --> 11:12.209
[SPEAKER_01]: Because real worship is when you don't feel like it, but you do it anyways.

11:13.107 --> 11:21.574
[SPEAKER_01]: Hello, real worship is when you feel like giving up, but you raise your hands anyways, and you say blessed be the name of the Lord.

11:22.015 --> 11:28.841
[SPEAKER_01]: Real worship is not listening to your favorite song and getting into some sort of groove and some sort of vibe.

11:29.161 --> 11:38.109
[SPEAKER_01]: All of that is great, and it's worship, but real worship is going after the heart of the Father, and spirit, and in truth.

11:39.550 --> 11:40.191
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

11:42.165 --> 11:49.552
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you're taking notes this morning, there's three things that I want to teach you today when it comes to worship.

11:49.612 --> 11:54.737
[SPEAKER_01]: And these are really what I would call three facts about worship being in spirit and in truth.

11:54.797 --> 11:58.641
[SPEAKER_01]: Number one is this is that there is a way to worship.

12:00.002 --> 12:00.883
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a way to worship.

12:02.520 --> 12:14.451
[SPEAKER_01]: Now everybody has their own form, their own avenue, if you will, whatever it looks like, everybody's got their own look and feel of what worship is to you and how you do it.

12:14.491 --> 12:19.756
[SPEAKER_01]: But there is a right way to worship and let me tell you there is a wrong way to worship.

12:23.840 --> 12:27.304
[SPEAKER_01]: We've been talking about the Holy Spirit really the past six weeks now.

12:28.750 --> 12:38.075
[SPEAKER_01]: And what I hope you have understood over time is that we truly and honestly can't do much without the Holy Ghost.

12:39.595 --> 12:40.196
[SPEAKER_01]: We just can't.

12:42.337 --> 12:43.557
[SPEAKER_01]: Jesus understood this.

12:44.638 --> 12:54.223
[SPEAKER_01]: That's why He explained to those around Him in listening in John chapter four that, hey, there's one way to worship that has brought you to this point.

12:54.683 --> 12:55.363
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's great.

12:56.164 --> 12:58.325
[SPEAKER_01]: And it has been pleasing to the Father in heaven.

13:00.739 --> 13:01.759
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's another way.

13:02.079 --> 13:02.900
[SPEAKER_01]: Somebody say another way.

13:03.700 --> 13:08.442
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's another way that's going to move you from how far you've come to what's coming next.

13:09.402 --> 13:11.263
[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to take you into the next season.

13:11.283 --> 13:25.048
[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to take you into a deeper journey with the Father, the form of worship and the acts of worship and the ways that you have gone about worship up into this point have been a sweet aroma to the Lord.

13:26.254 --> 13:31.498
[SPEAKER_01]: But now you're shifting out of that way of worship into a new way of worship.

13:32.359 --> 13:36.182
[SPEAKER_01]: And this worship involves partnering with the Holy Spirit.

13:38.624 --> 13:39.685
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the way of the Spirit.

13:44.229 --> 13:48.432
[SPEAKER_01]: Which this teaches us something that there's multiple ways to worship.

13:49.633 --> 13:53.036
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's only one way that Jesus desires that we all worship.

13:54.057 --> 13:54.938
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's in the Spirit.

13:56.342 --> 14:08.823
[SPEAKER_01]: When Jesus made this announcement in John chapter four, he was saying, essentially, you can worship any time, anywhere, but you must worship and spirit and in truth.

14:10.226 --> 14:12.327
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care where you go to worship.

14:12.887 --> 14:14.807
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care what time of the day it is.

14:15.227 --> 14:27.730
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't matter if you're by yourself or you're at around a certain group of people, it'll matter what that looks like, but just make sure that you are worshiping and spirit and in truth.

14:29.030 --> 14:35.792
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, unfortunately, people make a choice for themselves and they choose which path to take.

14:37.476 --> 14:45.198
[SPEAKER_01]: a religious, organized, convenient way of worshiping, or they choose a spirit-led worship.

14:47.358 --> 14:51.379
[SPEAKER_01]: There's denominations, and I'm not picking on denominations or anybody today.

14:52.179 --> 15:03.802
[SPEAKER_01]: But there are denominations that you'll walk in, and it's just, you'll stand there, and everybody's as stiff as a board, just singing something, and then you sit down, and that was their worship.

15:06.647 --> 15:06.967
[SPEAKER_01]: Yikes!

15:08.129 --> 15:11.633
[SPEAKER_01]: Now that may fit some people and that's perfectly fine.

15:12.874 --> 15:17.260
[SPEAKER_01]: But to me I want to worship the way Jesus said in John chapter four.

15:19.148 --> 15:31.075
[SPEAKER_01]: that there is a time that is coming and there is a time that is already right here right now when the true worshipers will worship and spirit and in truth.

15:32.016 --> 15:36.058
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, if the Spirit of God is not there, I don't want nothing to do with it.

15:36.838 --> 15:43.002
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want just sacrilegious religious, whatever Pharisee type mindset worship.

15:43.122 --> 15:43.903
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want that.

15:44.443 --> 15:45.984
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to go after God.

15:48.190 --> 15:50.450
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying you have to lift your hands.

15:51.091 --> 15:53.371
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying you have to run around this place.

15:54.091 --> 15:56.211
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying you got to shake all over.

15:56.271 --> 15:57.352
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying that.

15:57.852 --> 15:59.812
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't have to be that way every time.

16:00.672 --> 16:01.012
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay?

16:02.052 --> 16:03.973
[SPEAKER_01]: Now if it happens, glory to God.

16:05.693 --> 16:10.194
[SPEAKER_01]: If you begin running around here, I mean, I don't care how many times you do it.

16:10.214 --> 16:10.934
[SPEAKER_01]: You just run.

16:11.754 --> 16:12.794
[SPEAKER_01]: I ain't gonna stop you.

16:13.995 --> 16:15.155
[SPEAKER_01]: If it's the spirit that is.

16:17.997 --> 16:19.898
[SPEAKER_01]: Now if it's not the Spirit, we'll know.

16:22.460 --> 16:29.164
[SPEAKER_01]: And one of the ways we'll know is when you're done, you're gonna be like, that wasn't the Spirit of God, that was your flesh.

16:33.267 --> 16:33.888
[SPEAKER_01]: Glory to God.

16:37.610 --> 16:41.493
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's two avenues of worship.

16:41.613 --> 16:45.055
[SPEAKER_01]: There's individual worship and there's corporate worship.

16:47.387 --> 16:50.308
[SPEAKER_01]: Both should just be really equally as important to you.

16:51.948 --> 16:56.389
[SPEAKER_01]: If this is the only time that you worship something's off, right?

16:57.729 --> 17:12.613
[SPEAKER_01]: So you should have, you should be fulfilling both avenues of worship, both corporately and a corporate setting, like in a group of body of believers like this on a Sunday morning or whatever, but individually you should be worshiping as well.

17:14.194 --> 17:18.556
[SPEAKER_01]: individual worship is how you worship God by yourself when nobody else has involved.

17:19.976 --> 17:28.440
[SPEAKER_01]: Whether it's just turning on some music or put it on a YouTube worship video or maybe it's just you and God and there ain't no music happening.

17:29.318 --> 17:33.101
[SPEAKER_01]: There ain't no certain sounds or whatever, but you're just worshiping the Lord.

17:33.782 --> 17:38.326
[SPEAKER_01]: You're getting in tune with the Holy Spirit, but all of that is individual worship.

17:38.666 --> 17:47.654
[SPEAKER_01]: A corporate worship is when you take who you are and you join who you are with somebody else and you begin worshiping the Father that way.

17:48.695 --> 17:54.740
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything that he's done for me, everything that he's blessed me with, all of who I am, all who he's created me to be.

17:55.160 --> 18:02.646
[SPEAKER_01]: I now link ours with my fellow saints, and I'm a worship god, hallelujah, and spirit and truth, and I'm going to go after God that way.

18:03.486 --> 18:13.134
[SPEAKER_01]: So we have two avenues that are important, that we follow, and that we maintain our individual, individual level of worship, and our corporate level of worship.

18:14.057 --> 18:15.078
[SPEAKER_01]: But here's the key.

18:16.019 --> 18:24.505
[SPEAKER_01]: There should be no difference between who you are and the individual worship and who you are in the corporate worship.

18:26.747 --> 18:41.779
[SPEAKER_01]: Your individual worship looks a certain way and I get it, but don't be having your individual worship and where you're going all out and all that and then you come in here and you're like, it don't match.

18:43.470 --> 18:44.650
[SPEAKER_01]: There's something wrong there.

18:45.131 --> 18:54.633
[SPEAKER_01]: If you can't worship corporately the way that you worship individually, then you've got to figure some things out there because your heart is the same.

18:55.154 --> 18:56.474
[SPEAKER_01]: Your heart should look the same.

18:56.514 --> 18:59.955
[SPEAKER_01]: It should reflect that of the Father and going after your pursuit of Him.

19:00.795 --> 19:01.135
[SPEAKER_01]: Amen.

19:01.756 --> 19:02.716
[SPEAKER_01]: And I have seen

19:04.290 --> 19:05.951
[SPEAKER_01]: I have seen all kinds of worship.

19:07.072 --> 19:08.994
[SPEAKER_01]: All kinds of worshipers, if you will.

19:09.695 --> 19:17.341
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, from head banging people during like songs that you're like, why are you head banging during this slow intimate time with the Lord?

19:17.401 --> 19:19.103
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, has anybody ever seen something like that before?

19:19.803 --> 19:25.388
[SPEAKER_01]: Where it's like, you know, there's guys that are just doing this and you're like, that's not where we're at right now.

19:27.399 --> 19:32.823
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the way the Lord is ministering to them, and they're worshiping the way that they know to worship.

19:33.403 --> 19:36.145
[SPEAKER_01]: And I can guarantee you, that's what they do when they're alone with God.

19:38.286 --> 19:49.594
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen a lot, I mean, you'll see people that fall in their face, kneel before the Father, you know, weep, weep out loud, scream, shout, you know, whatever.

19:49.614 --> 19:56.179
[SPEAKER_01]: And all of these things are involved in our worship and a part of who we are,

19:57.960 --> 20:08.208
[SPEAKER_01]: So hear me, if you, if you cuss people out all week long and then you show up on Sunday, call you out of my shumni at an amasa, you know, you are not worshiping and spirit and and truth.

20:10.709 --> 20:14.772
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it just, it just doesn't work that way, okay?

20:15.193 --> 20:21.337
[SPEAKER_01]: You're either a spirit-filled born again, believer, or you're not, you know?

20:21.697 --> 20:27.402
[SPEAKER_01]: And your life should look the same in here on Sunday mornings as it does Monday through Friday.

20:28.582 --> 20:29.383
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I'm saying?

20:30.063 --> 20:33.526
[SPEAKER_01]: It should look the same as it does at your job or whatever it may be.

20:33.546 --> 20:39.591
[SPEAKER_01]: I was at work this week and now granted I just started a month ago.

20:39.611 --> 20:43.014
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm still trying to get to know everybody and everybody's trying to get to know me.

20:43.694 --> 20:50.780
[SPEAKER_01]: And at first everybody came in and thought that I was just like this mean like laying down the hammer like

20:51.285 --> 20:52.826
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, gonna change everything up.

20:53.046 --> 20:57.049
[SPEAKER_01]: I had individual meetings with everybody on the team in this one guy towards the very end.

20:57.069 --> 21:00.231
[SPEAKER_01]: He was one of my last ones that I met with because there's twelve of them.

21:00.911 --> 21:01.271
[SPEAKER_01]: Total.

21:02.252 --> 21:12.258
[SPEAKER_01]: He said, man, um, just gotta tell you this, like a lot of us feel that you're just like coming in here, like, and you're gonna kind of like kill the family vibe that we have.

21:13.079 --> 21:13.539
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like,

21:14.687 --> 21:18.690
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you don't know me yet, because that's not who I am, right?

21:19.590 --> 21:26.535
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, I'm all about fun and having a great time and all that kind of stuff, but there's a right time for it.

21:27.195 --> 21:29.037
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a time that we have to be serious.

21:29.817 --> 21:32.098
[SPEAKER_01]: And we have to buckle down and do our work, right?

21:33.018 --> 21:41.280
[SPEAKER_01]: And so you don't have to navigate all of those things and figure out my relationships and kind of where I'm at with people and all that.

21:41.320 --> 21:43.901
[SPEAKER_01]: And now everything is great and I love it.

21:44.001 --> 21:44.861
[SPEAKER_01]: I love everybody there.

21:45.281 --> 21:46.022
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody loves me.

21:46.162 --> 21:48.462
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's going really, really well.

21:48.883 --> 21:49.643
[SPEAKER_01]: All that kind of thing.

21:50.943 --> 21:53.724
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a person on the team that this week we started talking.

21:54.305 --> 22:01.248
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it was on Thursday and we started talking out loud in the office space and

22:02.660 --> 22:28.389
[SPEAKER_01]: you know everybody's kind of sharing some different things and we're talking about worship actually and we're talking about you know going after God and just you know you know our churches and everybody's sharing where they go to church you just all this kind of stuff and and and and this one girl in the team she says she says well don't get me started in tongues because if I get started in tongues this whole room is going to a whole another level right and I said oh really

22:31.033 --> 22:39.420
[SPEAKER_01]: And I got up out of my desk and I walked over to her and I said, all right, so we got somebody who is full of the Holy Ghost up in here, do we?

22:40.160 --> 22:46.905
[SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, oh, heck yeah, she's like, she's like, I'm telling you, like, when I start praying, like, we're going to war.

22:47.426 --> 22:50.048
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, okay, keep talking because you're my kind of person.

22:50.088 --> 22:51.509
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's keep talking there.

22:51.909 --> 22:54.912
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it turned into a whole hour plus long conversation.

22:55.732 --> 22:57.413
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, it was powerful.

22:57.594 --> 22:58.474
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it was powerful.

22:58.995 --> 23:01.457
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, we get to pray in all the kind of stuff.

23:01.537 --> 23:16.929
[SPEAKER_01]: And, and I said to her, I said, well, I said to the whole room, I said, well, what we're going to do is starting next week is that we're going to start taking at least one day a week where we come together corporately as a team and we pray and we worship and we go after God.

23:21.391 --> 23:29.794
[SPEAKER_01]: I told her, I said, so I told her all that, and you know, you got the one, yeah, that's great, you know, some didn't respond or whatever, and I said, I said, watch, now listen.

23:31.475 --> 23:32.676
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of them will show up.

23:33.736 --> 23:37.718
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of them will be involved as much as you and I are, but some of them won't.

23:39.098 --> 23:48.182
[SPEAKER_01]: But we're gonna be okay with that, because not everybody is at the same level as you are right now, and now everybody's gonna want what you want.

23:49.242 --> 23:52.064
[SPEAKER_01]: But we're going to get them there, but just got to be patient.

23:53.725 --> 23:58.828
[SPEAKER_01]: I say that to say like, not everybody is running at the same pace that you are.

24:01.130 --> 24:12.818
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of you feel like you're on the absolute mountain top of mountain tops and God's been moving and the Holy Spirit's flowing and operating your life and things are really great, you know, all that and you feel in some people are in a valley.

24:15.334 --> 24:33.700
[SPEAKER_01]: where life's stuff and storms have been blowing all around them, and there's been chaos and confusion and all different kinds of things happening, but that doesn't mean we lessen our capability to worship the way that he's designed for us to worship.

24:34.521 --> 24:40.483
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me tell you something, when all hell is breaking loose in your life, worship should be your first response.

24:42.331 --> 24:43.432
[SPEAKER_01]: Your first response.

24:44.132 --> 24:45.333
[SPEAKER_01]: Go on after God.

24:50.037 --> 24:51.198
[SPEAKER_01]: Because here's the thing.

24:52.439 --> 24:53.680
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody can lift their hands.

24:55.962 --> 24:56.382
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody.

24:57.303 --> 24:58.464
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody can say amen.

24:59.765 --> 25:00.406
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

25:01.767 --> 25:02.868
[SPEAKER_01]: Say it again, pastor.

25:04.349 --> 25:05.370
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody can do that.

25:06.230 --> 25:07.051
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody can do that.

25:08.237 --> 25:13.301
[SPEAKER_01]: but not everybody wants true intimacy with the Father.

25:15.683 --> 25:30.075
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm not saying you've got to have your life in order and you've got to show up and figure it all out when you get here because I know that many of us need a place like this where we have to come into just to get our hearts right.

25:31.116 --> 25:34.299
[SPEAKER_01]: And I understand that at times that's the kind of atmosphere that we need.

25:36.486 --> 25:44.154
[SPEAKER_01]: But I am saying that if you're going to worship and spirit and in truth, then you've got to repent before you start shouting and dancing.

25:45.155 --> 25:48.738
[SPEAKER_01]: You've got to get your heart right before you start hooping and hollering.

25:50.180 --> 25:52.743
[SPEAKER_01]: And now is the time, so may say now is the time.

25:53.613 --> 25:56.874
[SPEAKER_01]: Now is the time for true worshipers.

25:57.814 --> 25:58.374
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now.

25:59.935 --> 26:01.235
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all of us, though.

26:01.855 --> 26:07.376
[SPEAKER_01]: There's not this thing where it's like there's a separation of non-true worshipers and worshipers.

26:07.657 --> 26:11.838
[SPEAKER_01]: I believe in this body of believers, we are all true worshipers.

26:13.978 --> 26:15.038
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going after God.

26:16.419 --> 26:21.360
[SPEAKER_01]: And we didn't worship and spirit and intrude, then we wouldn't have worshiped like we have on Sunday mornings.

26:22.349 --> 26:24.391
[SPEAKER_01]: where the Spirit of God begins to move and flow.

26:25.752 --> 26:34.680
[SPEAKER_01]: Where the worship team can freely step out of a scheduled, well, we're going to the verse next or the chorus next or whatever, and they can just go.

26:36.081 --> 26:41.026
[SPEAKER_01]: They have a structure kind of like the skeleton, like the bone structure of your body.

26:41.466 --> 26:46.251
[SPEAKER_01]: They've got that structure for what they're going to do, but the rest is up to God.

26:48.900 --> 26:56.543
[SPEAKER_01]: We know what we're trying to do and what we're trying to get through and we're trying to accomplish up here, but how God does it is completely up to Him.

26:58.203 --> 27:01.465
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's what Spirit-led worship is all about.

27:02.465 --> 27:07.387
[SPEAKER_01]: Just allowing the Spirit of God to take you and to take you into the Holy of Holies.

27:07.447 --> 27:08.007
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now.

27:09.047 --> 27:10.748
[SPEAKER_01]: Where you can really worship Him.

27:13.449 --> 27:16.370
[SPEAKER_01]: So now is the time for true worshipers.

27:17.537 --> 27:18.538
[SPEAKER_01]: Number two is this.

27:20.358 --> 27:21.959
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a time of worship.

27:23.600 --> 27:24.680
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a time of worship.

27:29.203 --> 27:36.786
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me tell you this, because I believe this wholeheartedly, and I want to remind you of it today.

27:38.847 --> 27:42.049
[SPEAKER_01]: But if it doesn't cost you something, it's not real.

27:44.930 --> 27:46.391
[SPEAKER_01]: Worship should cost you something.

27:48.803 --> 27:56.307
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to offer God oftentimes what's convenient and then in return we want him to give us what's supernatural.

27:58.548 --> 28:17.959
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to offer something convenient and hopes that God offers something supernatural, but can I tell you today that sometimes God is waiting on us to not give him what is easy and leftover, but something that is precious and cost us something.

28:20.118 --> 28:22.659
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to give him leftover worship.

28:24.740 --> 28:29.282
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to give him a microwave version of what I can offer him.

28:30.722 --> 28:32.403
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to give him the real thing.

28:33.043 --> 28:33.924
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, somebody.

28:34.484 --> 28:35.164
[SPEAKER_01]: The real thing.

28:35.484 --> 28:44.808
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to give him something based off of my experience last Sunday and try to drag that all week long into the next Sunday, hoping that that's good enough.

28:45.488 --> 28:47.529
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, here's my leftovers from last week.

28:47.869 --> 28:49.130
[SPEAKER_01]: Here's where I left off God.

28:53.032 --> 28:53.952
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't work like that.

28:56.993 --> 29:06.056
[SPEAKER_01]: So in John's four, it's so significant because it's really an announcement that Jesus is making for a whole new way of worship.

29:06.896 --> 29:09.877
[SPEAKER_01]: It's literally an announcement to live supernaturally.

29:13.318 --> 29:15.579
[SPEAKER_01]: He says, hey, this is the way you've always worshiped, but guess what?

29:15.619 --> 29:17.239
[SPEAKER_01]: Now you're worshiping and spirit and truth.

29:18.320 --> 29:22.541
[SPEAKER_01]: So now we've involved the Holy Spirit, which makes it supernatural.

29:24.565 --> 29:33.815
[SPEAKER_01]: So when Jesus says that there is an hour that is coming in an hour that already is, what is He even saying?

29:34.656 --> 29:38.660
[SPEAKER_01]: How can there be something that's coming and yet it already is?

29:40.202 --> 29:41.663
[SPEAKER_01]: Wouldn't that not make sense to us?

29:42.845 --> 29:44.727
[SPEAKER_01]: How can it be coming but we already have it?

29:45.733 --> 29:50.455
[SPEAKER_01]: He's explaining that what's coming upon the earth is a right now thing.

29:51.555 --> 29:53.316
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a right here right now thing.

29:53.836 --> 29:56.698
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a thing that will change us forever.

29:57.538 --> 30:05.661
[SPEAKER_01]: And watch this, there will never be an hour coming from that moment forward that isn't an hour to worship.

30:07.382 --> 30:09.843
[SPEAKER_01]: Jesus is saying, there is an hour that is coming.

30:10.563 --> 30:12.304
[SPEAKER_01]: And there is an hour that's already here.

30:13.144 --> 30:14.665
[SPEAKER_01]: In other words, there is an hour

30:16.861 --> 30:18.322
[SPEAKER_01]: There will never be a time.

30:18.983 --> 30:20.303
[SPEAKER_01]: There will never be a day.

30:20.704 --> 30:24.667
[SPEAKER_01]: There will never be a moment when it is a wrong time to worship.

30:26.228 --> 30:30.191
[SPEAKER_01]: There is always space, always time to worship me.

30:31.832 --> 30:40.038
[SPEAKER_01]: There's an hour that's coming and it is here now that you can worship and spirit and in truth.

30:42.259 --> 30:45.862
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll pass through the world to all gonna get worse before it even gets better.

30:47.796 --> 30:50.058
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, let me tell you something, Sister worries a lot.

30:51.860 --> 30:53.381
[SPEAKER_01]: The world may get worse.

30:54.667 --> 31:01.568
[SPEAKER_01]: But the worshipers are only going to get closer and closer and closer to God.

31:01.628 --> 31:02.569
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, somebody.

31:03.269 --> 31:06.449
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care who's the president and who's not the president.

31:06.749 --> 31:14.531
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care if inflation is high or if inflation is low, if gas prices are through the roof or they're affordable.

31:14.771 --> 31:22.893
[SPEAKER_01]: There will never be a moment when the hour is not coming in which we should all be worshiping God in spirit and in truth.

31:22.953 --> 31:23.653
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

31:24.433 --> 31:34.098
[SPEAKER_01]: So hell may be breaking loose in your life, and you may feel like everything's in shambles right now, but the hour is coming, and the hour is right now!

31:34.218 --> 31:35.059
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah!

31:35.919 --> 31:36.980
[SPEAKER_01]: Somebody shout, amen.

31:37.000 --> 31:40.621
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you, Jesus.

31:42.202 --> 31:43.443
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm excited.

31:49.072 --> 31:55.594
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, if you're as excited, that's the question that I'm trying to ask myself right now, and I hope you are.

31:57.475 --> 32:07.618
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I believe the Lord is taking us into a place, a special place, of true genuine, raw worship that we've never experienced before.

32:08.779 --> 32:09.619
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, somebody.

32:10.499 --> 32:11.980
[SPEAKER_01]: This is the hour for it.

32:13.080 --> 32:14.460
[SPEAKER_01]: This is the time for it.

32:18.082 --> 32:18.802
[SPEAKER_01]: Praise God.

32:20.561 --> 32:23.542
[SPEAKER_01]: No wonder the attack has been so strong in your life.

32:24.782 --> 32:26.363
[SPEAKER_01]: It's because there's something coming.

32:28.063 --> 32:38.447
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of you have been dealing with all kinds of health issues, financial issues, family issues, job issues, I'm telling you, and ain't for no reason.

32:39.227 --> 32:44.589
[SPEAKER_01]: The enemy's trying to put a stop of what he knows, he's got already no control over.

32:45.647 --> 33:14.845
[SPEAKER_01]: because there is a time that is coming and there is a time that is right here right now when the true worshippers are raising up Hallelujah where we will worship above the circumstances we will worship above the sickness we will worship above the disease we will worship above the financial burdens in the lack thereof we will worship despite let's have an a job or not having a job despite us having a car or not having a car or whatever it may be

33:15.185 --> 33:17.286
[SPEAKER_01]: The true worshipers are rising up.

33:19.507 --> 33:20.248
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

33:24.230 --> 33:25.470
[SPEAKER_01]: There is a time of worship.

33:26.971 --> 33:30.473
[SPEAKER_01]: And number three, there's a place of worship.

33:32.534 --> 33:33.615
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a place of worship.

33:38.798 --> 33:39.438
[SPEAKER_01]: Verse twenty.

33:44.577 --> 33:53.541
[SPEAKER_01]: says this, it says, our Father's worshiped on this mountain yet, you Jews say that there is a place to worship God in Jerusalem.

33:56.402 --> 34:06.266
[SPEAKER_01]: Verse twenty is saying that our forefathers, they worshiped in this one specific place, but you're saying Jesus that there's another place.

34:08.355 --> 34:22.707
[SPEAKER_01]: How many are grateful this morning that it's not like it used to be where you had to go to a certain place, but you can actually worship freely, how you want, where you want, glory to God, how they lua.

34:23.487 --> 34:34.696
[SPEAKER_01]: There are some people in this room who do not worship until they get into church, but there are other people in this room who cannot wait to worship when they leave church.

34:35.557 --> 34:36.317
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah!

34:36.838 --> 34:56.007
[SPEAKER_01]: You're the kind of crazy radical spirit filled Holy Ghost person that will worship whether you're in your car or at your work station or whatever it may be you don't need a church service you don't need a worship band to take you there because worship is not what you do it to you are

35:07.734 --> 35:13.057
[SPEAKER_01]: Matter of fact worship should be an overflow, but what you've already been doing all week long.

35:14.718 --> 35:22.463
[SPEAKER_01]: You should come in here and it should just be an overflow of what you've already been experiencing, what you've already been doing all week long.

35:23.603 --> 35:26.985
[SPEAKER_01]: I loved what Noel and Emmanuel said last Sunday.

35:29.327 --> 35:32.829
[SPEAKER_01]: They were talking about that song, what a God that we did a few weeks ago.

35:34.826 --> 35:40.627
[SPEAKER_01]: And they both told me, in the car all week long, that's all we've been listening to is what a God.

35:41.587 --> 35:42.107
[SPEAKER_01]: All week.

35:43.808 --> 35:45.028
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the way it should be.

35:47.669 --> 35:52.670
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of us are gonna lift up holy hands in here this morning.

35:54.610 --> 35:55.990
[SPEAKER_01]: We're gonna call you out of machine.

35:58.151 --> 36:03.752
[SPEAKER_01]: We're gonna pray, we're gonna encourage one another, then we're gonna go get in our car and turn on some junk.

36:06.807 --> 36:22.113
[SPEAKER_01]: and drive down the road, listen into junk, and then get home and whatever, you know, and wake up tomorrow morning and forget the fact that twenty four hours ago we were standing in the presence of the Lord.

36:26.035 --> 36:27.155
[SPEAKER_01]: Got it all messed up.

36:30.217 --> 36:31.217
[SPEAKER_01]: All kinds of messed up.

36:36.524 --> 36:40.047
[SPEAKER_01]: Listen, I didn't come here to start worship.

36:41.728 --> 36:49.453
[SPEAKER_01]: I came here this morning to continue a worship service that's already been in progress all week long.

36:52.035 --> 36:53.296
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just different songs.

36:55.298 --> 37:04.825
[SPEAKER_01]: Same God, same spirit, same anointing, different song, different lyrics.

37:07.686 --> 37:11.169
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not the same ones I've listened to all week long on Spotify.

37:12.690 --> 37:14.771
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's COTC worship band.

37:14.811 --> 37:15.512
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

37:18.354 --> 37:19.195
[SPEAKER_01]: Glory to God.

37:21.977 --> 37:25.880
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a continuation of what's already been in progress.

37:27.781 --> 37:31.324
[SPEAKER_01]: How many of you know what it's like to worship in the car?

37:31.404 --> 37:33.246
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, where's my car worshipers at?

37:33.926 --> 37:34.667
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, hey, hey.

37:37.291 --> 37:44.156
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you know, I don't know about you, but have you ever just gotten to where you almost have to just pull over?

37:45.037 --> 37:45.297
[SPEAKER_01]: Whoa.

37:46.238 --> 37:56.665
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it's like, hey, Josh ain't there strumming this beautiful thing in front of me with his, you know, curly hair and his beautiful voice and all that.

37:56.946 --> 38:02.710
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't got that in the car right now, but what I got, I'm telling you is making me almost got to pull over.

38:02.730 --> 38:02.790
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey.

38:05.310 --> 38:06.893
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, maybe just me.

38:07.133 --> 38:07.514
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

38:08.776 --> 38:09.457
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe just me.

38:12.703 --> 38:15.287
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's a real thing called a car worshiper.

38:15.387 --> 38:16.429
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling you right now.

38:17.802 --> 38:37.678
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling you, when you're pulled up to a stoplight, and you don't care who's next to you watching you, they think that you're a lunatic, come on now, and you are just, hey, hey, hey, you know, and they're thinking, oh my god, that guy is dying, that guy's trying to rush to the hospital, no, I'm not baby, I'm just going to war, how do they do ya?

38:37.698 --> 38:41.961
[SPEAKER_01]: Where's my car worshipers at?

[SPEAKER_01]: All right, now, now, now, now, now listen.

38:49.692 --> 38:51.272
[SPEAKER_01]: Whereas my shower worshipers.

38:54.273 --> 38:55.393
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Hallelujah.

38:55.953 --> 38:59.194
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me tell you, everybody sounds good in the shower.

39:01.134 --> 39:03.935
[SPEAKER_01]: You may have the worst voice known to man.

39:04.355 --> 39:06.816
[SPEAKER_01]: You may not even be able to hold a tone.

39:06.856 --> 39:08.636
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now or anything like that.

39:08.896 --> 39:13.417
[SPEAKER_01]: But you step into the shower and you just join in with all a heaven.

39:13.477 --> 39:13.777
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on.

39:14.057 --> 39:17.038
[SPEAKER_01]: The angels are literally singing in that shower with you.

39:19.932 --> 39:20.913
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, pastor, that's weird.

39:20.973 --> 39:23.995
[SPEAKER_01]: I go in the shower to clean up and take care of business and get out.

39:24.555 --> 39:27.778
[SPEAKER_01]: I do too, but sometimes I'm in there for a while.

39:27.798 --> 39:30.019
[SPEAKER_01]: Melissa says, why were you in there?

39:30.320 --> 39:32.261
[SPEAKER_01]: Thirty, forty, five, and out.

39:32.341 --> 39:34.463
[SPEAKER_01]: Why were you in there so long?

39:35.563 --> 39:36.044
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

39:38.345 --> 39:42.969
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just... You know?

39:44.907 --> 39:46.688
[SPEAKER_01]: Just let that hot water hit me.

39:47.529 --> 39:48.129
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now.

39:48.169 --> 39:50.531
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like the fire of God coming over my body.

39:50.952 --> 39:52.373
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm just kidding excited.

39:52.433 --> 39:53.013
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now.

39:54.854 --> 39:55.735
[SPEAKER_01]: This is serious.

39:56.316 --> 39:58.697
[SPEAKER_01]: I know it's funny, but I'm being serious at the same time.

39:59.618 --> 40:05.843
[SPEAKER_01]: There are times where, you know, we're all busy and things are happening or whatever.

40:05.863 --> 40:12.688
[SPEAKER_01]: Once the ghost takes her shower, we're going to the room and worship music is blasting in that bathroom.

40:13.871 --> 40:16.394
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you could hear it, you know, on the other side of the house.

40:17.595 --> 40:21.039
[SPEAKER_01]: And she's just, whatever she's doing, she's just doing.

40:21.860 --> 40:23.141
[SPEAKER_01]: She's just going after it.

40:23.161 --> 40:26.385
[SPEAKER_01]: A shower worshiping.

40:29.187 --> 40:29.667
[SPEAKER_01]: It's great.

40:29.747 --> 40:30.628
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a beautiful thing.

40:31.729 --> 40:32.650
[SPEAKER_01]: I cannot tell you.

40:32.950 --> 40:33.730
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm being serious.

40:33.790 --> 40:35.292
[SPEAKER_01]: Melissa will test this.

40:35.712 --> 40:45.139
[SPEAKER_01]: I cannot tell you how many prophetic words, how many words of knowledge, how many full sermons have come out of a shower.

40:51.904 --> 40:54.426
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, Melissa, like you were in there, forty five minutes.

40:54.466 --> 40:55.867
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I wrote my sermon in my head.

40:58.562 --> 41:02.864
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it's just, it's like the Holy Spirit just loves showing up in the shower.

41:05.086 --> 41:05.546
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyways.

41:12.330 --> 41:14.751
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me tell you something, as these guys start coming up here.

41:16.552 --> 41:22.996
[SPEAKER_01]: You can worship God in a church service, just as much you can worship God in a doctor's office.

41:24.476 --> 41:44.920
[SPEAKER_01]: You should be able to worship God in a church service just as much as worshiping in a doctor's office when the doctor is looking at you in the eyes and telling you, you only have a year to live left on this earth and you should be able to worship Him in that moment just as much and just as strong and just as powerful as you are right here on a Sunday morning.

41:44.960 --> 41:45.680
[SPEAKER_01]: Glory to God.

41:47.561 --> 41:53.242
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to wait for Josh or Melissa or Cameron or whoever to tell you to worship.

41:54.260 --> 41:59.924
[SPEAKER_01]: Listen here church, you are a mobile move of God everywhere you go.

42:02.306 --> 42:04.767
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of you accepted that and some of you did not.

42:06.849 --> 42:10.792
[SPEAKER_01]: You are a mobile move of God everywhere you go.

42:12.215 --> 42:16.778
[SPEAKER_01]: There is worship that is flowing through you no matter where you're at.

42:17.559 --> 42:19.440
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel the Holy Ghost in me right now.

42:19.500 --> 42:20.281
[SPEAKER_01]: Glory to God.

42:21.241 --> 42:23.303
[SPEAKER_01]: There is a level of worship.

42:23.343 --> 42:30.047
[SPEAKER_01]: There is an anointing that can come over your life that maybe you've never yet experienced, but God is about to take you there.

42:30.127 --> 42:30.868
[SPEAKER_01]: Glory to God.

42:32.094 --> 42:47.061
[SPEAKER_01]: And I listen, I don't need, because people say, well, I gotta go to this church service, and this revival service, and this church conference, and I gotta hear from this pastor, and this person, and all these things, my Lord help us.

42:51.243 --> 42:54.345
[SPEAKER_01]: Listen, I don't need the greatest next conference happening.

42:55.750 --> 42:57.811
[SPEAKER_01]: There is already a river of God.

42:57.951 --> 42:58.131
[SPEAKER_01]: Whoo!

42:58.591 --> 43:01.633
[SPEAKER_01]: That is moving and flowing on the inside of me.

43:02.153 --> 43:06.875
[SPEAKER_01]: I remember that old song back from back in the, that we used to sing in the nineties.

43:07.135 --> 43:09.016
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it was that brand's real revival.

43:09.216 --> 43:11.097
[SPEAKER_01]: But it said, there's a river of God.

43:11.117 --> 43:13.018
[SPEAKER_01]: It feels my feet with dancing.

43:13.418 --> 43:14.339
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, river of God.

43:14.399 --> 43:14.759
[SPEAKER_01]: Anybody?

43:15.159 --> 43:16.180
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody heard that song?

43:16.200 --> 43:18.381
[SPEAKER_01]: Y'all were just all younger than me.

43:18.421 --> 43:18.761
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all.

43:19.141 --> 43:23.343
[SPEAKER_01]: But... There's a river of God.

43:25.244 --> 43:28.187
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a river of God and it's flowing within us.

43:28.727 --> 43:29.328
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

43:29.828 --> 43:32.351
[SPEAKER_01]: It's flowing within you and it's flowing within me.

43:32.411 --> 43:33.132
[SPEAKER_01]: Hallelujah.

43:35.614 --> 43:37.636
[SPEAKER_01]: So let me just tell you something in love today.

43:39.658 --> 43:46.825
[SPEAKER_01]: Stop bowing down to religious people who will tell you you can only worship on Sundays.

43:49.283 --> 43:56.887
[SPEAKER_01]: Stop bowing down to religious mindsets that prevent you from worshiping the way that God designed for you to worship.

44:00.629 --> 44:05.931
[SPEAKER_01]: That's why this crazy world keeps getting crazier.

44:07.672 --> 44:08.993
[SPEAKER_01]: Because we got the answer.

44:10.014 --> 44:10.994
[SPEAKER_01]: We got the oil.

44:11.975 --> 44:13.255
[SPEAKER_01]: We got the anointing.

44:15.656 --> 44:17.037
[SPEAKER_01]: So I came to tell you today.

44:19.306 --> 44:20.348
[SPEAKER_01]: It flow.

44:21.629 --> 44:22.230
[SPEAKER_01]: Let it flow.

44:23.452 --> 44:24.694
[SPEAKER_01]: Let it flow out of here.

44:25.495 --> 44:32.104
[SPEAKER_01]: Like a river, like a gusting river, like a stream, like a geyser just bursting up out of the ground.

44:32.424 --> 44:33.926
[SPEAKER_01]: Just let it flow, church.

44:36.325 --> 44:38.146
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you for listening to today's message.
