We've come this morning to thank you. To enter the holy courts by the Spirit we come to Zion the heavenly hill we come to the throne by the blood surrounded by 10 ,000 upon 10 ,000 innumerable hosts of heaven.

All crying worthy is the land. Worthy is the lamb who sits on the throne who reigns? Forever and ever and ever worthy is the land the Holy Spirit. We want to join that cry this morning. By the Spirit we cry this morning.

Worthy is the lamb who has Not only made a way but is our way. The veil has been torn your very flesh Has been torn you are the way. And so we say worthy. Worthy is the lamb. Thank you for this invitation.

Thank you for your presence. Make every hard heart soft every broken heart healed. Every confused mind clear. He who is truth. We worship and adore this morning. Therefore there is no room for lies. Give us eyes to see Jesus this morning.

And say worthy is the lamb. Worthy is the lamb who was dead and is alive forevermore. Worthy are you O Lord? You're the only worthy one. We give you all the glory all of it. I Want you to purpose in your heart right now.

To give the Lord the glory say Jesus. I give you all the glory all the glory. All the glory is yours forever and ever and ever. You're so faithful in Jesus name. I do would like you to just hold hands once again.

Amen. Can we thank him church? This is beautiful. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Come on. Thank you. I love you Lord. Find three people. Find three people. Share the love of God with him. That doesn't mean preach the gospel just means give him a hug around here.

Preach the gospel to them. Thank you Lord, then you can be seated and don't you just love the presence of the Lord. Can we just thank him one more time?

Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. I do want to remind you tonight. We actually gonna be a special night tonight. We're gonna be celebrating baptisms as a church. There's something so beautiful and Charged that when those take place in our church, you won't want to miss tonight.

Generosity as an Overflow of Gratitude

But we're gonna continue worshiping the Lord. Keyword worshiping the Lord with giving as I was praying this morning on what to say. I heard that line from that song. That it's my joy to thank you on. On this idea of of giving to the Lord it's our joy.

Don't you know that it's our joy and it's our honor. To be able on this side of eternity to offer him what it's costly to us. And as I was thinking about that this morning this scripture in 2nd Corinthians chapter 8 kind of came to my heart.

This is the Apostle Paul talking and it says that now I want you to know dear brothers and sisters What God and his kindness has done to the churches in Macedonia? They are being tested by many troubles and they are very poor but catch this but they are also filled with abundant joy.

Which has overflowed in rich? Generosity for I can testify that they gave not only what they could afford but far more. Catch that they could not afford this but they gave far more and they did it on their own free will they begged us again and again for the privilege and Sharing in the gift for the believers in Jerusalem.

They even did more than we hoped for. Their first action was to give themselves to the Lord and to us. Just as God wanted them to do. Let's skip down to verse 7. Since you excel in so many ways in your faith and your gifted speakers.

Your knowledge your enthusiasm your love for us. I want you to excel also in the gracious act of giving. I'm not commanding you to do this, but I am testing how genuine your love is. By comparing it with the eagerness of the other churches.

For you know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ though. He was rich. Yet for our sakes he became poor. So that by his poverty he could make you rich. And I love that Perspective shift. What does Paul go right to look at Jesus?

Look what he did. That's the model to follow and I think about our church. Sometimes we're known for so many things. We're known for amazing speakers. We're known for amazing worship, but how incredible would it be if we'd be known as a church?

Rich and generosity man, have you been to Jesus image the Holy Spirit's moving there the Lord's there. They have amazing speakers. They have amazing worship, but man, they are rich and generosity because they see Jesus.

They see the model that he he set before us and they emulate that they are Jesus people. And what did Jesus do he gave? He gave his very life the thing that was the most costly. What did the Lord the father do he gave his son who he loved.

Gave him for us. And so today as you're in this posture of giving I would ask you to check your heart. Don't give out of compulsion politics that talks about that in in the next chapter over don't give up but give cheerfully.

Give out of a heart of worship out of a heart of love out of a heart of abundance. Are you thankful for what the Lord has done for you? Are you thankful that he gave you his precious son? Are you thankful that by his stripes we are healed?

Are you thankful for what God has done and is doing? Then I would say today in a posture of Thanksgiving Asked the Lord to make you rich and generosity as we give to him. Amen. Why don't you just close your eyes?

As I pray for you Jesus, come on just in your own words begin to thank the Lord this morning Jesus. We thank you. Oh It's our joy to thank you. It's our honor to be able to worship you in this way to give you what costs us Lord.

Oh Lord, we thank you for sending your son Jesus we thank you for dying on the cross for us. Holy Spirit. We thank you that you're here in the midst of us. Oh, we love you. It's our joy to say thank you.

And so Lord, I pray for your church today I pray that we would be rich in generosity that we would give out of a place of love. Out of a place of genuine affection and worship to you. Oh We thank you Lord for what you're going to do.

It's our joy and it's our honor. We praise you today in Jesus name. We pray and everybody says Amen. Amen. There's multiple ways that you can give if you're here in the room if you need an envelope. We have ushers that are going by you can simply just slip up your hand.

Our ushers will make sure to get you an envelope. You can also do the text to give options if you're watching online.

Preparing to Hear the Word and Receive Communion

There should be some options there on your screen and we'll be right back with you in just a moment. Stand, please. And we thank the Lord just lift your voice. Can we thank him? Come on, let's just lift our hands and begin blessing the Lord Jesus Lord.

We love you. We worship you. We give you all the praise now. We ask you Lord to speak to us. To teach us your word open our eyes that we would see Jesus through the Teaching of the scriptures and through communion this morning.

I Thank you in advance that many broken souls will come to Jesus that many in darkness will come to the Lord Jesus Christ. And I thank you Lord even in advance for this evening. Oh. Let your power flow as we baptize Your children in Jesus name.

We are ready. We are hungry. We are thirsty. Our ears are open. Give us eyes to behold the lamb in Jesus name. Would you seal that with praise this morning? Oh, we love you Lord. We love you, Jesus. I love you.

Come on that what you can do better. Come on. Thank you Lord. Well, good morning everybody. Good morning, everyone. You are born again, right? Good morning, you're grateful for the Lord and his love. Yes tonight we'll be baptizing people.

It is one of my favorite things in the world to do. Baptism is holy if you've never been to one of our baptismal services. It you just need to come. They are charged with the glory and presence of the Lord.

As I've said before nowhere in the scriptures. Do you see the waters of baptism separate from the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and There are moments. I don't know where we're putting the tank. Where do we put it tonight right over there?

There are moments when the tank when people start gathering around the tank and People are baptized. You can feel the tangible glory of God just pulsating from that area and it's it's just. I love to do it for many reasons one of which is I get a front-row seat to wonderful glory.

Next week we're gonna update you on the status of the building. Yeah. Yeah, we're still on schedule to break ground in the spring. Carla and I meet and talk weekly about it. The contractors and their team are meeting Carla and some of the team this week.

On the land. To walk through it and it's happening. Thank you Jesus. In the months to come we will begin the The vision campaign for the building and I'm believing that we won't own a dime. We won't owe a dime on that thing.

The Lord has blown our minds. With the amount of money that's come in already for it and that's prior to the vision campaign even beginning. So I'm in faith and As I've said many times may we see our children's children's children grow up in the glory of God there amen amen imagine walking down the prayer trails a Little warmer than today.

Hopefully I would assume they'd be pretty empty on a day like today. My son played in a golf tournament. He's there right now. It's why Jesse's not here, but I was there yesterday and we swapped drove for hours and It was so cold out there, and I actually Looked at him.

I'm like dude unless you play really amazing. I'll be in the clubhouse because this is great one year I played in a professional event in Nevada and My caddy bailed on me after the ninth hole. It was so cold because ice was falling.

And he looked at me. He goes. I'm out of here. I'm going to have chili. Quit on me my caddy. So I kind of understood after yesterday all that being said imagine walking with your family or alone waiting on the Lord meditating on the Lord's beauty and passion.

It's gonna be a beautiful beautiful property it already is but it is gonna be glorious and a place to call home amen. What we want most is for the Lord to call it home. And we believe he has all right, I want to get into prayer again, did you enjoy last week's teaching?

Prayer as the Holy Spirit’s Activity

So I would certainly take notes on this and to review. What is prayer. Prayer is the work of the Holy Spirit? Turning our hearts and affections towards the Lord. Prayer is the activity of the Holy Spirit.

It's really important we understand that prayer is something he does and something we join. Until you discover this it's okay to be taught this but the only way to really learn this is to experience it and Probably the best way to learn it.

Getting a little ring here a little feedback here on the left. Yeah, I'm like a bell or something it's not an angel and the prophets rebuked me just there it is an angel. No. It's not so that's a speaker.

The only way to really learn it is to go in your room and shut the door and get in and Not be hard on yourself. Don't judge how you're doing. But to get in and allow the Lord to teach you and since prayer is the activity of the Spirit.

You have to yield your time and being to him. Trust him to walk you down the road. Teaching is important. I believe through the scriptures that revelation sets us up. To understand a life of prayer, but at the end of the day It is the Holy Spirit himself who loves to teach us how to be with Jesus.

Amen part of the challenge with prayer in the church and I would say that one of the areas the church is really weakened is prayer. Because we've been shown all of these different Models that aren't all necessarily wrong.

They're just incomplete. It's one aspect of prayer. You know, let's say you grew up in an extremely Pentecostal Homer environment prayer is active and loud and If I were to say pray in the Spirit you would instantly pray in tongues now, that's okay.

But there's more to praying in the Spirit than your tongues language. In fact, the only way to pray is in the Spirit. It's not prayer unless it's in the Spirit. Do you understand? I didn't just say it's not prayer unless you speak in tongues.

You have to your vocabulary has to change. Being in the Spirit does not mean screaming in tongues. Now I believe in praying in tongues. I believe in speaking tongues and There's a lot of people watching right now who are in the ministry who speak in tongues.

But are afraid to tell your congregations and you know, you do and I love it. I'm on to you. I Studied the surveys. Prayer is not just about getting something done though. There is this realm of prayer that demands answers.

Well, not from God. You're not demanding answers. Let me say that another way. There's a realm of prayer in which We should expect Answers and not have We should expect answered prayer if we ask the Lord and Whether we whether it happens or not is a different conversation.

But we do know that the Lord is returning and looking for faith when he returns. So there is this aspect of prayer where you talk to the Lord. You are making a request to the Lord and The Lord actually expects you to stay in the pocket until the breakthrough comes.

That's one of the beauties of marriage. Is that? Oftentimes one of the spouses will have faith for something. The other one doesn't have. Like us being here right now and at OCC Jesse would say I don't know for 15 years one day.

We'll be preaching in there and I'd say you're crazy. Had no desire to be here. I Had moved on and that's kind of my nature. God did it then he's doing something new now. I'm moving on then. We didn't have a building and just said you watch.

We'll get OCC and Here we are and to be honest with you even pastor Benny would say Jesse relax move on a little bit. No, not moving on on that one. She had faith for it. It's one of the beauties of marriage.

It's it's it's that power of agreement to do put 10 ,000 to fly. So it's very important now. That's an aspect of prayer. But there is more to it. There is a depth that gosh probably less than 1 of the church has even heard or understands and that is continual unceasing prayer.

And that's what Paul talked about. We're gonna get there. Hopefully experientially as well. That's my goal in life. It's it's a greater goal than Building the building. It's a greater goal for me than having events that a lot of people come to.

Finding continual experience of God or continual prayer is the goal for me. I would call that union with God. Once you understand what prayer is again, it doesn't mean I'm talking all the time. We talked about that last week when you pray say I'll say it again when you pray say.

In other words praying is bigger than saying. The saying is a part of the praying. When you are praying say in other words. Allow prayer to kick in in the heart then verbalize. That's what the Lord did.

The Bible says he looked up to heaven inside and then loosed the tongue. What was he doing why would he look up to heaven. Some would say yes, he was Grieving over that person who was suffering sure that could be true.

But I also look at it. In that the Lord Jesus looked up to his father in heaven communed with the father and then released the power of God. Huh when you pray say? He touched his father's heart his father touched him back then the Lord declared and the healing came.

That's the way to live as a man thinketh in his. So is he? So meditating on the Lord being aware of him in the heart. Actually gives me a platform to stand on of authority and faith to declare the Word of God.

To people talk too quickly in prayer. I'm gonna give you a bunch of scriptures. So just let me let me just Break up the fallow ground here. I'm gonna tell you something you mark my words the day is coming where the church will be more quiet yet ten times more powerful in our gatherings.

I Don't mean you should shut up with the gospel. No, we need to declare the gospel more loudly. But I do miss the people who acted like Jesus and preach the gospel. That'd be refreshing but our gatherings are gonna become very much like this.

You know, we had a beautiful pocket in worship this morning. I don't take it lightly. It was beautiful. The Lord's here in a very special way this morning. Specifically here to heal broken hearts. To heal those of you who are wounded.

Let the Lord do the work. Let him heal you a Friend of mine. He's probably watching right now. They live in Switzerland. He Sent me a text yesterday. How do you know when to stop praying? And when I first read that I was like Oh, I wish you were in church Sunday.

But then he said in the secret place. That's open a conversation as well. Because if the secret place is in the heart, that means it goes everywhere with you. Now I do think you should have a place to pray because Jesus said you should go into a room and shut the door.

That's prayer 101 at Jesus school. If students come in, how do I do this thing? Do you have a room? No, I share one. Do you have a curtain? No, go buy one from Target for eight bucks put the curtain between you and your roommate's bed.

I Can't afford a curtain. Can you find a tree? How about a car? Can you shut the door? That that's so beautiful to the Lord. I Remember one time somebody said hey, I have a condo in Myrtle Beach if you'd like to use it for a few days.

Now I've been to Myrtle Beach if you're watching from Myrtle Beach, I'm sure you are. Don't take this wrong way. I have other places in America that I love more than Myrtle Beach. Myrtle Beach is kind of like The theme parks of Orlando meet a beach town.

Not my vibe at all. But I said you have a condo on the water, yeah. It's like a nine-hour drive. I think from here in it or eight. How far is Myrtle Beach? Anybody know eight hours? I said I'll be there to pray.

I Could find a quiet place eight-hour drive. Sure. I could drop sure. I'll drive eight hours to be with Jesus. After the third the first day was okay by the second day. I forgot I drove eight hours. It was awesome.

So Laura loves that type of effort. If you don't have a place to pray find one. Make one. It's not religion. It's beautiful and Don't as I said before do not. I said this two weeks ago. Do not fall into there three.

Two sorry do not fall into the trap that you can just find. Continual abiding prayer if you do not steward secret prayer. He who dwells in the secret place shall abide. The abiding life is a promise. Only experienced by those who dwell in secret you have to live there.

The Secret Place and Spiritual Perseverance

Now, I believe everything we're experiencing is by the grace and mercy of God. I Have to be honest. Many people who were touched on this platform. I'll never forget the night. You know Jesse and I were baptized in the Holy Spirit on the same night here in 1990.

Yeah, there's a little girl in a Jordan jersey. With a little mustache. Next to me. All right and When we talked about the night we got filled the spirituals that was right next to you that night. That's was after we got married.

We figured it out. Years later now around Jesse and I were dozens of people my age. Old some were older some were younger all had the same opportunity. We all got touched by God. But I noticed a common denominator.

Among those who faded out. My bedroom door was shut they very frequently visited the secret place. I'm sorry, very rarely. Visited the secret place. I'm not saying you can obtain it by works. But but clearly some say yes, and some don't and in that place so much has worked out in you.

I am all about counseling. I think it's wonderful. We believe in it. We've been counseling. We have counselors many of them for my own life for Jesse and I but they cannot do what God can do. When you think of what really attacks environments like this all over the world.

And I've been behind the veil at the ones you love. They all face the same thing people groping for power people not feeling celebrated people wanting more. People wanting an opinion that God hasn't given them.

People want to comment in There on realms that they've never been entrusted to steward. That's everywhere. But what's the core issue the lack of satisfaction in secret, that's the lack of satisfaction.

I mean one of the things a worship team needs to learn is is who the anointing is flowing through in the moment and back off. If God sneaks up on one of the vocalists and begins to flow through them. The right thing for the rest of the team do is to say I see authority on that person right now and I'm gonna honor that and They do it gladly because the moment is not the source of satisfaction.

His presence in private is so I told you at the beginning of the year I'm gonna speak to you more on an individual level than a corporate level in the beginning of this year. Because what we've been doing is watching the Lord speak to us corporately invite us corporately and teach us corporately but a corporate gathering is it's a bunch of individuals and If each person can find satisfaction in Jesus Unity is at hand.

So the way you the way you don't see a difference between being on the prayer team and vacuuming is because you're both satisfied. Do you get it? Well right now. I'm saying no to 80 of the invitations I used to say yes to not partially because of my voice.

But I am no less at peace than I was when I was traveling everywhere. Why? It's a satisfaction issue. He's available and he needs to be found daily. So you got to get in room in your room and shut the door Matthew chapter 6 go into your room.

Close the Door, this is prayer 101. It is elementary. And once you get in it's okay to say father I don't know what I'm doing. In fact It's probably the best thing you could say. As You respond to this invitation.

Remember what Jesus said that those of you who think you're in the light, but you're really in darkness. How deep is the darkness the toughest people to teach are the ones who think they know what they're doing?

I I told my son one time on the driving range. He's telling me that I was wrong. When he was like seven. So I said hey bud. What we're gonna have to establish here is That I know what I'm talking about and I'm giving the lesson.

So what I need you to do is be quiet and swing the way I tell you to. Well, I don't like that. He did that at Disney one time. He said I can clear it over that lake. I said, oh really? Yeah, each ball is like six bucks now, I think or five.

No like four. They're expensive. So when the ball goes in the lake, it's like bye-bye. And he goes hey buh-bye. I can I can hit that shot. I go in your dreams, that's what I thought. But you know a good father goes.

All right, go for it. He hits it in the lake. So as a dad, I'm going hopefully he says I'm not gonna try it drops another one in the lake. Once we're like 15 bucks in I go. Hey, I don't know if you need a sozo after this one.

But you can't do this right now. You're too little. Hit it over there. Prayers kind of like that. The Lord lets you get involved. He instructs you but the worst thing you can do is stay out because you're intimidated.

Don't stay out dip your toe in the river. And you'll be you'll discover I can trust the current. And then once you can trust the current just jump in. The Lord pleasure. He is he is. Excited to teach us how to pray.

I just want to clear. I want to clarify that. Because there are these deeply spiritual truths that I'm about to get to and I don't want them to intimidate you. I want the scriptures to provide a framework by which you can experience the Lord.

So prayer is the activity of the Spirit turning the affections of the heart the mind and even the body to the Lord himself. One man wrote prayer is God doing all things in us. Now and last week I gave you Luke 11 to when you pray say.

Then I use the example of David saying as I believe it's a messianic utterance as well. That when those accused him he became prayer or he had given himself to prayer and that's Psalm 109 verses 1 through 4.

And then we we discovered it is the Holy Spirit who is the spirit of prayer. So prayer is really the activity of the Spirit as I just said and that is Zechariah 12 10. He is the spirit of grace or empowerment and supplication or prayer.

Now if I asked most of you who grew up in church, I said what is prayer? You'd say a humble request made known unto God. That's a small percentage of prayer though. It is part of it. At the core prayer is a person the spirit of grace and supplication.

The spirit is willing that's Matthew 26 Verse 40 speaking of our spirits and then I gave you Romans 8 26. For we do not know what to pray. Paul writes as we ought. Oh, no, that's bad news. We don't know we're doing but God has a plan comma but the spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep to be uttered.

All right. Now listen, how many ever heard groanings in a meeting? Come on, don't freak out. Okay. I know many of you have how many were freaked out the first time you heard that. All right now. People go how could you be around stuff?

That's do you think it's all real? I go no, but some of it is and if some of its real. It's the Lord. It's a great way to look at things. However, there are also groanings that can't be uttered. It's not the best proof text.

When the lady sounds like she's in labor, I'm not. I've seen things look that has shaken me up where the Lord moved. I'm not judging that. But there is a groaning that you can't put words to. Paul's getting at this.

It's the activity of the Spirit something I wrote in the Jesus book when Jesus becomes when Jesus himself becomes my prayer at last I am praying in other words. There's a place in the depths of prayer where my pores start screaming his name and I cannot put words to it.

It's the entirety of my being it's like a pulsating sponge with these little. Did this hunger cry give me Jesus Jesus Jesus and it can last for hours and hours and hours now. It's after you get through that whole prayer list you get through all the stuff and then you're left to this him and him alone.

Now you're praying. That's the bridal cry. That's the Maranatha cry come Lord Jesus has to be by the Spirit the Spirit and the bride say come that is future and now. All right, so that that was last week now who initiates prayer.

Can someone help me Ryan David? Maybe you two could y 'all grab mics. Who initiates prayer and this is such wonderful news, by the way Psalm 36 Verse 8. Ryan, would you would you read that one says they shall abundantly satisfy with fatness of the house.

They are they are abundantly satisfied. But keep going. Yep.

They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of your house and you give them drink from the river of your pleasure. Keep reading. For with you is the fountain of life in your light. We see light. Whoa, this is loaded.

Loaded there is a river of delights whose name is the person of the Holy Spirit. So imagine this river is flowing and that river is filled with delight. You need to drink from that river of delight because the world doesn't have it and We live in it.

So here is an invitation through the psalmist saying hey, there's a river available and It's filled with delight. Verse 9 for with you is the fountain of life with you speaking of communion. Fellowship with the Lord.

It means when I break fellowship with he who is alive. I stop experiencing true life. Goes on to say it's in your light that we see light. Do you know how Incredibly powerful that is. Do you know what that means that you need him to know him?

Let me say that again. Unless he's in the room You can't know him it's in light we see light. I have to be in the presence of God. To know the presence of God. Now should we respond? Yes, but I've good news for you.

It all starts with him. The gospel is his idea the scriptures are his idea. The move of the Spirit is his idea. His mercy is his idea him shedding his blood. It's his idea. It's all his idea. So it's in light we see light.

That's why it's so important that there are more communities like this. I pray that will be birthed all over the world where the presence of God himself is preeminent because if he's not there You can't know him that way.

Do you understand say this I need him. To know him you don't know him in your own strength and then start to need him. You need him to even know him. He's got to say hello to you nice to meet you. It's his idea.

I Said it's his idea. Say thank you Jesus. Isaiah 55 verses 1 through 3. David, would you read that? Are you all liking this? Oh.

Everyone who thirsts come to the waters and you have no money. Come buy and eat. Yes, come buy wine and milk without money and without price. Why do you spend your money for what is not bread and your wages for what does not satisfy?

Well, listen carefully to me and eat what is good and let your soul delights itself in abundance. Incline your ear and come to me. Here and your soul shall live and I will make an everlasting covenant with you the sure mercies of David.

My word everyone who thirsts come. Come to the waters. Is your soul parched this morning? You dry broken. You feel like you're in the wilderness. Come I? When people tell me they're in dry spells my first the economy of my thoughts is this you're not praying.

I'm not saying you cannot go through a season or the Lord begins to reveal himself to you in a different way so maybe it was through song and worship in the secret place and He's attempting to show to open a well per se through the text.

So he's leading you away from singing in that moment to the scriptures. That's not necessarily a wilderness. But the scripture says it's the rebellious who dwell in a dry and we relent. That's not new covenant a promise dryness.

So I tell our students how can you be in a dry spell if there's a river in your belly? Imagine imagine the Lord's gonna ask us one day. Why didn't you have more? Well you were far away really I was in you.

Where were you in my in your belly? Right here from your and not your real stomach. I'm not talking about your Gummy bear collector. I'm talking about Your carb collector. No. No I'm talking about. I'm talking about your innermost being.

How in is he in your innermost being you can't be anymore in? In the deepest place and. And he's asking you to come to him, and he's not far away in Fact he's a thought away, but you have to know listen where to find him how and where St. Augustine said this you ready.

I spent years trying to find him without. Only to finally discover he's within oh my now. Theologically speaking and theology matters. Theologically speaking there is an eternal Indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

Gifts will cease in heaven, but the Lord himself will never leave us. Thank you, Jesus. He will never leave us. He is in us to stay. He's not leaving this temple. Thank you father. He left the prior temple when the veil was torn it that said two things.

Please come in and I'm getting out. Because instead of Jerusalem stone. I want to fill living stones and I want to be the chief cornerstone and What happens is is when I when I fill living stones they become living epistles living letters.
