[0:00] Hallelujah! We thank God you've tuned into this message by David Entry at Caris Church. No hand can help you with the fulfillment of your destiny but the Word of God. May God's hand align you further into your destiny through this Word.

[0:15] Joel chapter 2 verse 28. It shall come to pass afterwards that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.

[0:26] What is the meaning of all? All. None exempted. Anybody can be qualified. I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.

[0:41] I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh. It shall come to pass. I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.

[0:53] All flesh. The Spirit as I was teaching on Sunday is poured like water. Isaiah said, I will pour water upon the thirsty land, dry land.

[1:07] Then I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh. But what is interesting is, in Acts chapter 11, from verse 15.

[1:20] Yeah, that's Peter speaking today. Team of apostles. He says that, As I began to speak. Let's all say that together. As I began to speak.

[1:31] Say it again, please. As I began to speak. Say it for the last time. As I began to speak. So, he said, As I began to speak. What happened?

[1:42] The Holy Ghost fell on them. This is packed with so many things. I brought you here for two main things. The first one is the last statement there. The last sentence there.

[1:53] As on us at the beginning. There's no distance. What happened on the day of Pentecost? It's still happening. As in the beginning.

[2:06] It's, That's, He comes like that. He poured His Spirit on us. On the day of Pentecost. And Peter was saying that this is what, Joel was talking about.

[2:17] That's what's happening. And it wasn't only them. Days and months after. The same thing happened to people who were not supposed to be in the clique.

[2:30] They were not qualified from human standards. It happened to the unqualified. But they just happened to be at the right place. With a right heart desire.

[2:42] As I was speaking. The Spirit of God fell upon them. As upon us. In the beginning. The way He came on us. The same way He came on them. As upon us. But it's interesting that there was something that triggered.

[2:57] The coming of the Holy Spirit. If Peter had not had revelations to go to Cornelius house. The Holy Spirit was not going to come. Because the Holy Spirit needs a set.

[3:09] Thank you Jesus. The Holy Spirit needs a certain climate. When the climatic conditions are right. You don't have to say come. He'll be there.

[3:19] When the climatic conditions. When the temperature is right. He'll be there. That's why sometimes we come. These meetings. Really.

[3:29] Don't have a particular schedule or program. We just. Keep going. Just keep going. So. He guides. What the time is.

[3:40] So when the atmosphere is right. He will come. And. He said. He was waiting for Peter to be speaking. So as Peter spoke.

[3:52] As Peter was speaking. In Acts chapter 10 verse 44. It says. While Peter has picked this way. The Holy Spirit fell. And Peter was telling them. He says. As I was speaking. He came upon them. Just as on us in the beginning.

[4:05] So first of all. You have to notice that. There's no difference from the beginning. Because. He always comes like the beginning. Because anytime he comes. That means something new is about to begin. Amen.

[4:17] He always comes. At the beginning. Have you seen. A woman pregnant. In her throat before. She's pregnant.

[4:28] But it's in her throat. Or it's in her armpit. The pregnancy is there. No. There's only one place a woman can be pregnant. In her womb. That's how it happens.

[4:38] In the beginning of a human being. The Holy Spirit. When he's about to begin something. He comes. The way he comes in the beginning. But there are certain factors.

[4:49] That trigger his coming. Number one. We can see. That. That. It's preaching. And teaching. Of God's word. As we speak Christ. I speak Jesus. I speak Jesus.

[5:02] Jesus. Jesus in the mountain. Jesus in the streets. Jesus. Over every enemy. Jesus. Oh my God.

[5:15] I speak the holy name. Jesus. Jesus. Your name is power. Your name is power.

[5:27] Your name is power. Your name is power. Your name is power. Your name is power. As I began to speak. As we speak the name.

[5:38] The Holy Spirit came. So the conditions. That creates. The trigger. That creates. The necessary atmosphere. For the flow of the Holy Spirit. Is. The name of Jesus preached.

[5:50] As we speak him. The spirit. So teaching. Of God's word. Or the words of Christ. Creates the atmosphere. And number two. Let me add. One more.

[6:01] On the day of Pentacles. They were together praying. It creates the atmosphere. But sometimes. One of the things. You have to realize. Is. For a certain atmosphere.

[6:12] To be created. For the Holy Spirit. Takes time. If you don't have time. You can't secure. A dimension. Of the spirit. That's why we thought. We are doing a program.

[6:23] A program. Every year. 21 days. 21 days. We were ending. The Holy Spirit. Okay. Now we finish. For your own program. Now I have to also. Now do my thing. Time.

[6:35] Somebody say time. Time. Time in his presence. Or. Tarrying in his presence. I don't mind waiting. I don't mind waiting. Increase.

[6:46] In prayer. Tarrying in prayer. Tarrying in prayer. Expecting. In prayer. In prayer. As we tarry in prayer. It creates the right atmosphere.

[6:57] For the Holy Spirit. To descend upon us. Your hunger. Or expectation. Number three. Hunger. Or expectation. So one.

[7:07] The words of Christ. Two. Tarrying in his presence. In prayer. Three. Hunger. Or expectation. You really want him to come. You are.

[7:18] Hungry for him. You are. Expected for him. To show up. When you expect. The Holy Spirit. And you are. Pushing yourself. He just comes. He comes. You see someone.

[7:30] Capturing. The presence. Of the Holy Spirit. Now. When the Holy Spirit. Comes. It's important. You understand this. This is.

[7:41] Then I can run up. So I just mentioned. Three things. The word. Prayer. Expectation. Anticipation. Expectational anticipation. Or.

[7:53] Hunger. Desire. Now. When the Holy Spirit. Comes. There. Are things. That happen. In an atmosphere. One of the things. That when you know.

[8:03] He's come. Is. Peter says. As I spoke. He came on them. How did you know? Because when he comes. There are. Minorisms. That can be replicated. By others. The physical.

[8:14] Other activities. So see. Sometimes. We can't. We are praying. And somebody is praying. And then it's good like this. And you've been watching people. Doing that. So you also learn.

[8:24] That's how we do it. Like sometimes. The way the children. Are doing over there. It's not hysteria. There are. Similar things. Happening. In other places.

[8:35] Without even prayer. And you might think. It's the same. It's not the same. But when the Spirit of God. Comes. No wonder they said. These people are drunk.

[8:47] So they are drunk. Because. Let me show you. How it. Is like. When the Spirit of God. Comes upon you. He comes. In a way. That. You.

[8:59] Sometimes. This is beautiful. Watch this. You are conscious. And yet. You have lost consciousness. I don't know if you know.

[9:10] What I'm talking about. When your wig is falling. You are so much. At where it's going. At the same time. You are not yourself. Now.

[9:21] The difference between. The move of the Spirit. And fetishism. Is fetishism. Or demonic activities. Are beyond the control. Of the career. Of the person.

[9:32] Having the experience. So that's why. When they say. Let's keep quiet. You can't keep quiet. The pastor is. In general. It's a demonic. Most of it.

[9:43] It's a demonic reaction. When it's the Holy Spirit. It does not disrupt. The move of God. In 1 Corinthians. Chapter 14. Verse 32. It says that. Verse 31. 32.

[9:53] The spirit. Of the prophet. Is subject. To the prophet. It is when. It is. Satanism. Or fetishes. How many of you. Have seen fetish. Behavior before. You see.

[10:04] Someone. They can't control. They can't. They say. I can't stop it. I don't know what. I can't stop it. No. When it's the Holy Spirit. You are very much. Conscious. And yet.

[10:14] It looks like. You have lost control. You are crying. And shaking. And shaking. And even when. You are going to fall. You are aware. That there is a puppet here. You are aware.

[10:26] You are not faking it. You are aware. And you keep. You are falling. You are falling. And sometimes. It's the beauty of it. Is that when is the spirit. Your resistance. Is less.

[10:37] In what sense. Because it's a swift cooperation. You are cooperating with him. Because you want him. You don't resist him. So even though you are.

[10:48] Kind of out of control. Yet. You don't resist his control. Even though. You are so much in control. You can't stop it. Because you don't want people to feel that.

[10:59] But sometimes. You don't really care anymore. And you just. Happily. And willingly. Yeast. To flow along. Whilst you are still in control. When they say.

[11:10] Everybody stop it. You stop it. So. People who are. Familiar with. Fetishism. And. Spiritism. They say. But how come you are able to stop.

[11:22] Because they think. It's the same. See. Anything. The way the Holy Spirit moves. It can easily be copied. Either on a mass scale. Or a.

[11:32] A. A. Minimum scale. You can. People can easily copy that. But. What the. The difference would be. They don't have the Holy Spirit. So. They say.

[11:42] Let's pray. And we are praying. And then. He. The Holy Spirit comes on him. And he's going like. And then he comes on this. And he's also going.

[11:54] And I realize. Man. I have to get into it. I have to get into this thing. I'm being left behind. Then me. I get into it. Yeah. You know.

[12:06] You. The onlooker. Might not be able to tell any difference. Except. Maybe God has sent you. To minister to them. Then by this. Potentially. If the spirit quails.

[12:17] By the spirit of discernment. You might know that. This one is genuine. This one. This one. It's not like it's not genuine. But it's not the spirit doing it. Sometimes people are genuine. But it's not the spirit doing it.

[12:28] It's man made. Thank you. It's man made. Because. They also want to get into the flow. But the flow is. Fleshly flow.

[12:41] That's why. By the time. This one is shaking. And you see. It's fall. Fall. Fall. And then he falls there. And then this one too. Is shaking. And he falls. And you realize. Everybody is falling. So you too. You want to fall.

[12:51] By the time. Your head. It's thin. No. It's not like. God is punishing you. No. God is not punishing you. Just that.

[13:02] It isn't God. Who is guiding. And directing their face. So people come and see. We. We pray. Lie on the floor. And.

[13:13] Churches are shaking. Say. That's how we do it. Okay. Look for. So the children have been doing it. A lot of the time. When we lie down. They also lie down. And then they keep watching me. If I'm looking. They. They. I said.

[13:26] These children. They are distracting me. But let me leave them. Because I don't want to stop them. Because let them enjoy the environment. But it's not hysteria. It looks very much like hysteria.

[13:36] But it's not hysteria. So in the day of Pentecost. They said they were drunk. But you see. If it's the Holy Spirit. Or when it's the Holy Spirit. There results in your life.

[13:50] After that encounter. Decisions are made. And abilities are generated. Oh. I feel like preaching. Amen. Abilities.

[14:00] Supernatural abilities. Abilities are generated. Which compensates for. Your deficiencies. Oh. If someone gets you what I'm saying.

[14:13] Pastor. Can you. Can you elucidate. Some of you. You haven't been to university. Can you expatriate. Yes. That's the ones.

[14:24] You are familiar with. Can you. In Acts chapter. Three. Verse 14. 15. 16. Ah. I like it.

[14:35] You see. It says that. And his name. Through faith in his name. Has made this man strong. There's a name factor. In this whole thing. There's a name. There's a name.

[14:46] Chapter 3. Verse 11. Let's go to verse 11. 12. 13. Let's say. Let's say. Come on. Um. Okay. Ah.

[14:57] Verse 12. Let's go to verse 12. When Peter saw. He answered. He said. Ye men of. This is the one I'm looking for. I was looking for this one. In verse 15. End of verse 15.

[15:07] He said. Ye men of Israel. Why are you surprised at this? The first thing. You are surprised at this? This shouldn't be surprised. in you. When the Holy Spirit is coming.

[15:19] There will be a lot of things. That people cannot imagine. It's. It's the characteristics. Of the move of the spirit. So. You should be. I said. Why are you surprised at this? But not only the surprise.

[15:31] Oh. Why do you look on us. As though. By our own. Two things. Power. Or holiness. There is hope.

[15:43] For the ex-figator. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Some of you couldn't say. Amen. Amen. Because if it's going to be the spirit.

[15:56] If. The Holy Spirit is going to produce something in you. Then it's not going to be based. On your power. Or. Your holiness. Pastor. You were teaching that holiness matters.

[16:07] Yeah it does. It just creates platform for him to come in. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. But that's not what determines the results. He creates the platform for him. He said. So don't look on us.

[16:18] As though it's by our own power. Our own holiness. We have. Made this man walk. Watch this. They were claiming. Innocence.

[16:30] In what has happened. They were detaching themselves. They were trying to get the people to understand. That. This is beyond our natural abilities.

[16:41] This is beyond our capabilities. This is not of us. So then. If you want God to use you. Why are you coming with your qualification? Why are you thinking.

[16:54] Because I can't speak. He can't use me. Why are you thinking. Because I used to be. I have messed up a few times. Because I have messed up. Because when we were fasting.

[17:05] I was faking it. And all that. Where are you. Now that your heart is opening. I'm upset. I will begin to give you references. Tell him that. He doesn't need my own power. He doesn't need my own abilities.

[17:18] Is someone getting what I'm saying. Now. Let me leave the last thing to you. Because it looks like I should have left it. Do it tomorrow. But. Every day is a different day. The last word.

[17:30] In line with what I'm saying. He said. It's not by our power. When the Holy Spirit comes upon you. There is a way.

[17:41] Your human inabilities. And deficiencies. Get covered up. Now. When I use the word covered up. I think it might not be the right word. But. Gets.

[17:52] Swallowed up. So. Everybody. Has deficiencies. Uh huh. When you see me preaching like this. You might be thinking. But how can I remember scripture like that.

[18:05] That's your deficiency. But it's not that. It's the Holy Spirit. When he comes on you. He's actually happy. You have deficiencies. So that he can now manifest to those same.

[18:19] Watch this. Watch this. Because of my time. In Acts chapter 4. Are you ready for verse 13? Yes. Are you sure you are ready for verse 13? Yes. Let's start reading out from the screen. Now.

[18:30] In the salt of the boldness of Peter and John. And the seed that we are in heaven. And the seed that we are in heaven. Thank you for our friends. Thank you for all. And the seed that we are in heaven. Thank you for all. Thank you for all. Thank you for all.

[18:40] Why do you marvel at this? Or think that it is our own power? They were asking. Why are you marveling?

[18:50] The point of marvel. is when they notice your inabilities and deficiencies. And yet you are producing results. Like someone who has mastered in that area you are deficient in.

[19:06] Do you understand why the Holy Spirit is our helper? He is the producer of the work. So in that same area of deficiency.

[19:16] There is a way. He covers up for the deficiency. Okay. Someone who is an acute stammerer. And they say go and preach. The Holy Spirit is coming on you.

[19:28] You be preaching like you are Tony Blair. Or Obama. Yeah. So. This stammerer.

[19:38] Acute stammerer. Now he is preaching. And you are watching this person. And he is preaching. And talking like Obama. And when they finish. And you go home. Maybe it is your brother. Or your wife. Or your husband.

[19:49] Or your sister. Or your sister. You go home. But you are wondering. How is it that when. When. The thing is flowing.

[20:00] Because the preaching is not running. On your. That's the reason why you need the Holy Spirit. I need the Spirit.

[20:12] Because the Spirit. When it comes. And you are connected to Christ. It makes up for your deficiencies. That people are aware. You can't do this. They know you. And they know you can't do this.

[20:24] And yet. It is being produced. Easily through you. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Why wouldn't you desire more of the Holy Spirit. What do you think when you say he is our helper.

[20:38] He is the captain. He is the Lord. He is the. Bible said. When they were praying. The Holy Spirit said. Separate them to me. Me. Me. Me. Me. I am the one in charge here. Why do you look on us as though it is our own power.

[20:52] Then when they were giving their report. To their elders. The elders were surprised. When they saw. When they saw their boldness. Because that kind of boldness.

[21:05] It is people like Tertullius. And Saul of Tarsus. That can generate this kind of boldness. And speak like that. But these guys were unlearned. They were not schooled.

[21:15] They shouldn't be able to talk like this. And they saw the way they were talking. They said. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. Nah. The deficiencies have been covered up. Nah.

[21:27] God is. God is producing through their deficiency. He didn't enroll them in another school. One more thing. I said one more thing. But let me add this.

[21:38] You have to learn how to stay long. Because 314 of Mark. Said.

[21:51] He appointed 12. First of all. That they might be with him. Didn't you see what the elders said? When they saw the boldness.

[22:02] They knew that these guys have been. These long prayers are doing something for somebody's destiny. Don't get to a place where it's enough.

[22:12] What is enough? If someone should say it's enough. You should shut up. You should shut up. Because. Did you say it's enough?

[22:23] When you were quaffing in the flesh. You have gone too deep on the other side. That you should be the one to pay an extreme price.

[22:36] Nothing of value comes without an effort. You want to capture the Holy Spirit in your life. And you don't want to pay a price. You want to live a normal life. God break that relationship for goodness sake.

[22:49] Because those two are not compatible. Those two are not compatible. You want God to use you. Something must go. Your hands are full. So God can put any other thing in your hand.

[23:00] Empty your hands. Let go. I don't know who I'm talking to. It's about time. You got to learn how to let go. Else it's not our loss. It's your loss.

[23:13] Because God is ready. He wants to come upon you. But there's too much in your life. Your life is too busy.

[23:25] Too many things have occupied your life. And some of us. So much has not just occupied us. But preoccupied us. That it's taking priority in your life.

[23:38] Over a pursuit of God. But give me someone who is not tired of pursuing God. In spite of what's going on. And others are looking down on them. And others think they are better off.

[23:48] Because they are combining the two. I'm doing God. And I'm doing normal life. Yeah. I'm combining the two. No one combines the two. And gets the best. We don't get the best of both worlds.

[24:02] That's why. You can't even go to nightclub again. And yet. In church. You are not deep inside. So when people are doing nightclub. And rapping. And now. They are beginning to.

[24:14] Make waves on YouTube. And people are. They are getting views. You can't be rapping. And yet. In church too. You are rapping up. Are you getting what I'm saying?

[24:27] Oh. These seasons are good for somebody. Amen. It's about time. You run to recover. Amen. Take advantage of these seasons. Take advantage.

[24:38] And recover. Recover all. Amen. Recover. Because the longer you stay in God's presence.

[24:48] Sometimes you feel tired. But if someone should be tired. She shouldn't be me. You see the difference between me and you? Because I keep running.

[25:01] Even if I'm lying on the floor. I'll still be. There must be movement. If I can't run. I'll be jogging. If I can't jog. I'll walk. If I can't walk. I'll crawl.

[25:12] If I can't crawl. I won't lie down. There must be movement. Amen. And there is a way. When you allow your heart. To push you to the edge.

[25:24] You always find the spirit. Because it creates. Watch this. It creates. A private atmosphere. Around you. With the Holy Spirit can come. You can be in the crowd.

[25:35] But you have a private space. That the Holy. You know helipad. They land. They do helipads. Even on the rig in the sea. Helipad can. Do you know.

[25:46] There are jets. That have been landing. On the sea. Not on the sea. But. Aircraft carriers. In the middle of the ocean. There is space created. You can be.

[25:57] In the midst of the crowd. But your hunger. Your pursuit. Your intensity. Some of us. Your only downside.

[26:07] And disadvantage. Is you lack intensity. When it comes to God. You are very relaxed. That's why. When you come to church twice. You think.

[26:18] You've done so well. So you are. So you are. Expecting God. To be singing. You've done so much. For me. You are missing out.

[26:37] On destiny. Big time. We are in exciting days. Those. Who can pay the price.

[26:47] Pay it. Those of you. Who have been to school. You think everyone. That's well. A lot of people. Who play in school. Don't do well. And a lot of those.

[26:58] Who do well. When others are playing. They are studying. They are in the library. Some people. Are always in the library. They are a bit. Of antisocial. They don't go for social.

[27:10] They don't go for. But when the results come. If everybody knows. That's what this one. Your results is going to. Because they are paying a price. Pay a price in God.

[27:23] This is the season. This is the time. Pursue the Holy Spirit. He will come on us. Us. At the beginning. Did you receive something?

[27:36] Watch this. When the Holy Spirit is moving. And we have been taught. The word of God. It helps curtail excesses. Because of the nature.

[27:48] Of the movement of the Holy Spirit. Flesh can enter. Without you being able to tell. People can mimic it. Can fake it. Now. Those of you.

[27:59] Who look for fakes. You are wasting your time. You will never experience. The Holy Spirit. Because you are busy. On stupid things. Instead of looking for the Spirit. You are looking for.

[28:09] Who is fake. You are the fakes one. Who's shaking. It's not authentic. How did you know that? How did you know?

[28:19] Be careful. You don't blaspheme against. The Spirit of God. Leave it for God. Don't get involved. Or leave it for. Those human captains.

[28:32] The apostolic authorities. We know. Sometimes we can tell. The Lord will help us. No, no. This one is not. But even that we don't have time for it. Because sometimes there might be. 20% of genuineness.

[28:43] By 80% of flesh. So the genuineness 20% can do more. So we don't. We won't spoil anything.

[28:54] So you get busy seeking God. And opening up. The more you open up. And it takes control. You realize that he's come. You are in control. But I'm telling you. You'll be crying.

[29:05] You'll be. It's such a sweet. It cannot. You can't tell. You can't describe it. Thank you for listening to this message. By David Entry. We pray you have been strengthened.
