[0:00] Maybe we'll preach it tomorrow morning, but it's alright if I start where God started me.! It's good to see you, sis. Amen. It's good to see everybody. I'm just, you know, it's good to see you, man. I'm proud of you. Proud of you. Amen. Hallelujah. Proud of you. I ask Lisa about you all the time. I'm just proud, proud.

[0:25] Now, if you want to turn in your Bible, you can turn with me. Whether I get here or not, this is where I'm going to try to get is in 2 Chronicles, the Old Testament, 2 Chronicles.

[0:38] You have the Book of Kings and then you have Chronicles. 2 Chronicles, the third chapter is where I want to go to. 2 Chronicles, the third chapter.

[0:51] And I really need you to hold that verse in your spirit because I believe that God has spoken a word to me. You know, believe is kind of like that I'm hoping that he has. I'm not hoping. I know that God has spoken a word to me tonight. Amen. Hallelujah.

[1:11] And it's a word to you guys tonight here in this house. Is that all right? Hallelujah. As we were worshiping here, and I'm just, Pastor, I'm submitted to you, but I'm going to run this way if it's, man, you just yank me down.

[1:25] And you know that they trust you and I trust you. As we were worshiping tonight, in my spirit, I began to see people walking the streets here.

[1:39] And all of a sudden, they just turned and began to walk to this house. No, you didn't hear me. Now, I know that sound.

[1:49] Well, sure, you're a preacher. No, I'm telling you what I saw in my spirit. I saw people were just walking the streets, and suddenly they turned and started coming toward this house.

[2:02] And God spoke to me. He said, I've come to bring a place in this house that it's never had. God is saying tonight you have an opportunity to rub through that place where we can see God, but we can't touch him.

[2:16] But God wants us to go ahead and rub through that and touch him. And as we break through there, God's going to draw them into this place. And it's not going to be you, but it's going to be God that's going to draw them into this house.

[2:30] Hello? But I'm here to tell you that we've come for a breakthrough, for a breakthrough like we've never had. I've not come to preach to you. I've quit preaching. I've quit trying to be a sermonizer.

[2:42] I've come to tell you what God's saying, and when he's done, I'm done. Hello? Hello? You don't need any more preaching. You need to hear what the God of heaven and the universe is saying and what he's saying he will do.

[2:55] Is that all right? Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. God, I love you tonight. And tonight, God has got a release in this house.

[3:07] I could see in my spirit that you were ever so close. It was like if I was on a ladder and I had gone to the highest place, but yet there, there was still that glass ceiling where we could see God, but we hadn't yet touched him.

[3:21] The church is there. I'm there. I can see him, but I haven't touched him yet. But I'm going to break through to that place, and I'm going to touch him that the world might be healed.

[3:33] See, I've not come for you only, but I've come to reach the world that's dying, that the enemy said we can't have. I've come to get it back. It isn't the enemy's. It's God's.

[3:43] It's mine. It's my inheritance. According to Psalm chapter 2, David prayed this way. He said, God, give me the nations and the heathen for my inheritance.

[3:55] I've come to reverse the ideology in the church. It isn't about what I can get financially. It's what I can draw out of hell and bring to heaven with me so that I might enter into his presence and declare, God, I have brought back your sheep.

[4:10] It's a reversal. Hallelujah. Tonight, God's wanting breakthrough. Guys, I know that you're sitting here looking at me and you're thinking, you know, we've been here before. There's no doubt that we have been there and we are there even now, that you're there.

[4:26] You're there. I'm there. But here is the truth tonight. God wants to breakthrough as much as we want to breakthrough to him. Guys, the only way that we're going to see, help me, Jesus, man.

[4:44] I'm going back up here and run this way. Just hang on to me, okay? Or hang on or whatever. Who knows? There's two things that I know that God has purposed in our life, in Crystal and I, as we travel at this time.

[5:03] One of them is revival. No, you ain't hearing me. Pastor, I mean this. I've come to a solemn resolve.

[5:14] I know, I know that I know that I know that I am in my purpose. For you all here, I've not come to pastor you tonight.

[5:25] I've not come to preach a pastoral message to you. I've come to tell you of who that he is and to call you onto a stage and a place that America must have if we're going to see God before he comes in the earth.

[5:41] I know that God has called me to revival. To be a part of that revival. Does God need me?

[5:53] Not at all. God can do what he's going to do in these days that are ahead of us without me. But thank God, he said, you know, I think I'll let you come on the mission with me.

[6:05] If you want to go with me, I'm going this way. I love this. I shared this with my wife, pastor. I preached this way that I've been on a mission for God.

[6:19] You know what? That's not the truth. I had tried to sell that to God that I was on a mission for him. It's not at all. I've come to tell you that I'm on a mission with him.

[6:30] I've not come for him. I've come with him. The church has got to come with him, not for him. He doesn't need a voice.

[6:41] He just wants you to enjoy the journey with him. Does that make any sense to you? We've had too many Christians that have been trying to say something for God. I'm not here to say anything for him.

[6:53] I'm just here with him. God, God, God. Revival. Real revival. Pastor, we haven't, you know, there has been a, I don't know how, just a smattering of revival in America.

[7:13] Brownsville, no doubt, there's revival that is occurring even there now. There is something happening in Smithton, Kansas, and there's other places in Maryland and in Washington State and some a little bit in California.

[7:29] There is even a little bit of a breakthrough in Northwest Alabama. We're sensing some things, but it is only a smattering. We are in the beginning stages.

[7:40] Hello? Hear me, please. I hope you're recording this, that they need to hear this again. We are not in the full-blown part of revival, but we are in the beginning of a revival that men cannot sit back anymore and say we did it.

[7:57] This is a total God thing. But we are in the beginning of this revival. Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? How do you know that? Because I'm hearing men that were in total different vocations.

[8:11] God is calling them out and pastor, they're saying God has sent me in here as a revivalist in the earth. We are in the beginning of this thing, guys.

[8:27] Now, that doesn't mean that it's still yet coming. Not at all. I've come to destroy the hyperbole and the hypothesis of the church that says that God's going to do something.

[8:41] Do you understand what I just said? In other words, hyperbole is always we're talking about something that is in the future. We're believing someday it'll get to us. I'm not talking that.

[8:52] I'm telling you that God has gotten to his church. We haven't yet seen the full ramification of him getting to us. But God has gotten to his church.

[9:05] And revival is beginning. True revival. The other thing that I know that God has called me to is the harvest. Because revival is in the harvest.

[9:18] Do you hear me? Revival's in the harvest. If we don't have a heart for the lost, for the world, for our city, then we don't have a heart for God. Because God loves this place.

[9:29] If you're not weeping over your lost, over your family, over your community, you're not pleasing God. Hello? Is that all right? Come on now.

[9:40] See, we ain't been saved just to sit soaking sour. Come on now. You all will like this here in a minute, I promise. I'm going to say something of these that are going to make you like me or hate me.

[9:51] And it doesn't matter either way, but you'll respond. No, I've got to tell you these things. That God, that I know my purpose. See, there's never been, in all of my years, pastor, as a Christian and being in the house of God, there have been very few men that I could say that I encountered that knew without a shadow of a doubt their purpose, their destiny.

[10:14] That they knew where they were in time. And they knew that they were there because God had shown up and said, son, I've come to take you on a play with me and on a mission with me that you've never been.

[10:26] But I'm telling you, pastor, that we're in the edges of being in our perfect time. Ooh. Hallelujah. You hear me, brother? That's, that's, you know what?

[10:39] That's the hardest thing. I'm about to crush under this here. I'm telling you, my knees are weak. And I didn't tell you that for a minute. I'm serious. We're in this thing. God, help me, please.

[10:49] Help me, please. Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm. Let me, can I run this way? Now, I know I've got you in 2 Chronicles, the third chapter. Help me, I'm going to deliver this word to you if it's all I can do is deliver it.

[11:03] Verse number one, it says, now Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah.

[11:16] Where the Lord had appeared to his father David at the place that David had prepared on the thrashing floor of Ornan, the Jebusite.

[11:28] That's all I want to read. I want to go back now, and I want to bring you to speed with what God's saying. I want to go back to that word, and God, I'm going to, that word revival.

[11:42] Revival, you need to write that down. If you're taking notes, you need to write that word down. Revival. Revival. We're hungry for it. We know that if we can get it, that it will do something or another in our midst.

[11:58] We don't know exactly anymore what it will do, but we know that we must have it. Come on now. Help me preach. I'm not asking you to vindicate.

[12:09] I'm just asking you to tell me you're hearing me. We've got, you have to have, I've got to have revival. I've told God nothing else, nothing short of that. God, I'm dead.

[12:19] I don't have anything left. God, I've got to have more of you. I can't go any further. We must have revival. Revival. When I, you know, when I say or hear the word revival, it brings to us religious folks that old feeling, you know, that when it comes, we know that it'll make us feel good about ourselves.

[12:43] And we like that feeling. And I'm not against feeling better about myself, but this is more than feeling better about you. It's really about God showing up.

[12:55] And it doesn't matter whether I feel better, but God shows up and he changes the world and people are never the same. Do you hear me?

[13:06] That's, that's revival. Revival. I looked up and I, and I'm going to do some things and you just stick with me and say, you know, I think he's going somewhere that I can understand. I looked up in, in the dictionary, the word revival.

[13:22] And don't anybody panic. I'm not preaching from the first book of Webster. Okay. Hello. Because everybody, you know, you read that. So, oh, he's going to preach from, I'm not preaching there, but I do want to understand.

[13:35] And the Bible says the man that's, that doesn't, that doesn't study to prove himself and to show himself approved is not any good. So, okay.

[13:47] And sometimes God will make you take a weird trip to get to where you are or where you need to be. Hello. Anybody had any weird trips? Now, I'm not talking about drugs.

[13:58] I'm talking about God taking, you're saying, why in the world, God, am I out here? But God takes us. I don't understand why I'm in Winfield, Alabama. That's so out of dislocation to what God's doing.

[14:08] But you know what? God knows what he's doing. You know? I don't know why God sent Moses to the backside of the desert, but he knew why he had him there. It was a weird trip, but when God was done with him, he delivered a people out of bondage and slavery.

[14:22] In other words, he brought to them a word of revival and revival birth because God knew how to take him the right way to get him where he needed him to be. Is that all right?

[14:34] Amen. So God's got us on some weird. Today, I called, one of my intercessors called, and I'm wanting to just run.

[14:46] As preachers do, we want to run this direction. I've got such a fresh word in my spirit, and I'm thinking, God, I need to tell this everywhere. But by the same token, I've told God, I said, God, give me the word that is for them, not from me, but for them from you.

[15:04] So today, all day, I'm praying, God. You know what? I talked to my intercessor. I said, pray because I want God to give me a definite word. When I got alone now, I'm going to tell on myself.

[15:19] Now, I hate doing that. I had one of my Timothys get married today. I took part in his wedding, and I've been in a wedding all day. We got in late, late the other night, and we've been running.

[15:32] In no time, when I got to my mother-in-law's house, I slipped into the bedroom, and there, as I sat down, God began to speak this to me with clarity. So it's so fresh that if I mess up a little bit, will you say, God, that's so fresh.

[15:47] He's a good cook, but you know, he may have left a little this out, a little that out. But you know what? It still tastes good, and it looks like it's the right thing. Huh?

[15:57] Is that okay? Let me read to you. As I looked in Webster's Dictionary, the word revival, several of the defining statements paralleled what I would define revival to be.

[16:17] A stirring of spiritual things. A renewal or reviving of things that were dead spiritually to a new level. The refreshing, and use that word refreshing several times.

[16:31] A refreshing of what was. A lot of those definitions run through my mind, and those all, you know, those were ones I knew and I could understand, and I seen them.

[16:43] And they spoke in my spirit. I understood them. But there were two definitions that leaped off the pages to me, and God began to speak to me out of those two definitions.

[16:55] One of them was revival is a legal term. You need to write that down. Revival is a legal term.

[17:08] And it means to bring back or renew to vindicate. Or you could say it this with a renewal of validity.

[17:23] In other words, this legal term would mean that someone would find an old legal statement. And they would see that it still applies, and it still works.

[17:35] And they'd bring that legal statement into the courthouse of law. And they would say it, and it would bring back validation to it because they had found. In other words, the word of the Lord, revival could be termed that God's getting ready to validate the house again.

[17:53] That he's getting ready to bring back the standard and the stature that the house should have had all along. What was dead, what was gone, what was diminished.

[18:04] God said, honey, I'm getting ready to validate it. And I'm getting ready to prove my word in the house again. You hear me?

[18:16] I don't know about you, but I'm ready for some validation. I'm ready for God. Another phrase you could say is he's getting ready to bring back his glory. In this legal term, that's what he's saying in the phraseology.

[18:35] He's saying, I'm getting ready to validate. All those people. Now I'm 47 years old, Pentecostal all of my life.

[18:47] I have come, amen, from a little house like this on the other side of the tracks. When we sang and didn't have any air conditioning. And they throwed eggs at my father and his brothers and the men that were preaching.

[19:00] And made fun of them and sipped bootleg whiskey. And made fun of the Pentecostal movement. To here we are in the day of the 21st century. And we've never been here before.

[19:11] And God's about to validate the Holy Ghost. He's about to prove that he's God. He's about to prove that he's God.

[19:22] This revival, it ain't going to be so much about you and I. It's just God's going to show up and say to the world, I told you there was only one God.

[19:35] And my name ain't Buddha or Mohammed. My God, my name is Yahweh Adonai. He is going to show up.

[19:46] He has started. This revival has began. God is validating his house. And you know what? This validation hasn't got anything to do about our faith.

[19:57] It hasn't got anything to do about us. It's just God saying, honey, it's my word. And in Isaiah, he said, you know this and you know this sure and true. It will not return unto me void.

[20:09] But my word will accomplish that that I've sent it to do. Honey, I don't care how far in hell your children are. I don't care how bound in drugs they are. I don't care how much alcohol they drink.

[20:20] I don't care if they live in hell. God's going to bend it. Help me here.

[20:33] Do you understand what God's doing? I can hear him. He is stomping his foot on that glass. Honey, it's going to break through. He is Belparazia.

[20:44] He is the God of breakthrough. And he will break through this house. He is going to validate what he said. Hello?

[20:56] Is that all right? Genuine revival. You know, we've had to explain it. Brother Kilpatrick, every time, one of the toughest things is that the reporters constantly make him try to validate what God has done.

[21:14] Hello? Hello? You know, the church folks is trying to make us validate. But God, this is about him. Revival when it's real. God validates.

[21:26] How does he do it? He said, I shall confirm my word with signs following. These things shall follow them that believe. They shall cast out devils.

[21:38] They'll lay hands on the sick. They shall tread upon serpents. They shall drink deadly things and it will not harden them. They shall speak to the lost and they'll be saved.

[21:49] These things. What is that? That is validation. But that's not where I want to go. That's just where I want to begin.

[22:00] Amen. The second definition of revival is a chemistry term.

[22:12] Or the other one. There are many definitions of revival in Webster's Dictionary. It lists something like 24. But out of those 24, about 22 of them, or 21, all are shadows of each other.

[22:25] In other words, they mean the same almost. Only a word or an adverb or an adjective is changed. But this one was the second one. This is the one that began to leap off the page to me.

[22:38] This chemistry term of revival. That it had its roots in chemistry. And true revival, the word revival, has its roots in the chemist language.

[22:53] The root word of revival is revive. Which is a medical term. Or a scientific term. In other words, it means if there was something dead, that it would be revived.

[23:06] If a doctor is in an ER and someone dies there, they bring in that crash cart and they shock him, he will turn to the nurse and say, he is revived.

[23:19] What is revived? That that was dead is alive. You're not hearing me. I said that that was dead is alive. How do you know?

[23:30] Because it was revived. So the root of what we're looking for has science in its nature.

[23:42] It means to restore or to reduce to its natural or metallic state. As to revive a metal after calcination.

[23:56] Calcination. Now if you're like me, when I read calcination, you could have said that in Greek and it would have meant just the exact same thing.

[24:09] Come on now. Don't you all see? If you all know what calcination is, you all need to be preaching and I need to be listening to you. I had no clue. Thank you.

[24:19] Thank you for being honest. Calcination, C-A-L-N-A-T-I-O-N, means this.

[24:31] To burn to ashes or powder. Or it also means to oxidize.

[24:45] I'm going to run any minute. I've been struggling with this running thing, but I read in 1 Kings where that Ahab, Elijah, after that he had prayed and he had defeated the prophets of Baal, he prayed about the rain.

[24:58] He said that he saw it. He went to Ahab and said, King, go and eat. And before Ahab to get to his house, to his table, something went whoosh by him. It was Elijah running. So I don't have any problem running anymore when the Holy Ghost gets on me.

[25:10] If you've got a problem running, just think about that. Anyway, that has nothing to do with what I'm saying. This word calcination or calnation, it means to burn up into ashes or dust or to oxidize.

[25:36] Well, to burn into ashes and dust, I got that. That's pretty much a clean cut thing. Now, you know, oxidize, I think I know what that means.

[25:47] So I thought, I'll look that up. Do you know that in paint, there are certain pigments in there that use the phraseology?

[25:58] That when paint oxidizes, it changes colors? Do you know that paint, the reason that it changes colors is because in the oxidization?

[26:11] Do you know what happens in it? That the sun shines on it and there is a negative and positive element in paint.

[26:22] Same thing in metal. There is a negative and a positive element. When you say that paint has oxidized, you're saying that the sun has taken all of the negative element out and revealed the positives.

[26:39] Oh! Honey, where are you? Listen, I don't know.

[26:50] I'm telling you, God has moved me in a place that I'm unfamiliar with. I'm in a place that I've never known. I don't understand it. But I know this, that the negative is being oxidized out of me.

[27:04] And the positive is being energized. What are you saying? I don't see God as not doing it. I see God as doing everything. Does this make any sense?

[27:20] Huh? Huh? Where are you? I'm in revival. I'm in revival. I'm in revival. What's going on? God is oxidizing my finish. He is removing out of my spirit that negative that is in me and placing in me more of his positive.

[27:40] Can you prove this? The apostle Paul in Philippians looked at the Philippian believer. I think it's in either Philippians 3 or 4. He says, don't worry about me.

[27:51] Whether I'm abased or I'm exalted. Whether I'm hungry or I am full. Whether I am rich or I am poor. I have found in all things to be content. For this I know in Christ.

[28:02] I can do all things. Honey, whether I'm in prison. God, I'm going to preach this.

[28:15] Help me preach. You're not hearing me. I know Brad's back in jail. They're saying, oh God, but you know what? Right there in that jail cell.

[28:26] God's taking the negative out. And he's instilling the positive. I'm here to tell you, it doesn't matter how far you're down. God's light still reaches you.

[28:36] God's light still reaches you. Listen to me.

[28:51] I've come to tell you that real revival is happening. What is real revival? It's when you stop looking and seeing the world lost, dead, dying, and drunk, and strung out, and say, God, this is where you want us, right in the middle of hell.

[29:07] God, you want us to do it. It's God now. You hear me?

[29:28] Huh? Will you agree with me that we really haven't had revival, but do you agree tonight that we're about to break out revival?

[29:39] Lord, have mercy. I have got a lot of joy. I have got a lot of joy. I have got a lot of joy. I have got a lot of joy.

[29:50] I have got a multitude of scripture. I'm thinking about Jesus. They're standing here. James, Peter, John, the disciples just outside Jerusalem. Jesus is looking.

[30:01] They're whispering back and forth about who he is and what he is. Peter, Jesus looks at Peter and says, who do you say that I am? He looks and says, you are the son of God.

[30:13] Honey, when real revival steps in, you don't see Jerusalem is dead and dying. You see it as God's bait to draw hell out and show the kingdom of heaven in it.

[30:26] When real revival breaks out, honey, you can't see anything but God.

[30:36] I think there's a lot of Christians that are ready for some oxidization. Come on now.

[30:49] I think there's a lot of years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and years and to invite the lost, to meet Jesus Christ.

[31:22] It ain't about negative, it's about a positive in Jesus. Let me tell you, have I got time to tell you the story?

[31:34] Huh? Amen. Hallelujah. Two years ago, Daniel Hughes, he called me, he said, I know that God, I'm his Godfather.

[31:50] You know, I don't mean that in the Italian sense, but you know what I mean. He called, he said, you're my Godfather. I see the anointing on you. I want to submit to you and say that I believe that God has that same anointing on me and I've seen it on him, Pastor.

[32:08] This is two years ago, he's telling me this. Just a few months later, not even maybe two or three, I get a call from him. I'd already known in the spirit as I was praying, something had happened.

[32:21] I get a call, he says, Larry, I've got something to tell you. I said, what is it? Well, you know my girlfriend, Amy? I said, yes, I love her. I believe that's God's woman for you.

[32:33] Well, we had sex and she's pregnant. I said, oh, Daniel, he starts telling me I've been scared from that point up until eight or six months ago.

[32:44] He was running wild. He had backslid on God. Now, hear me, hear me. I said when you're in revival, the negative is oxidized out of you and the positive rises up in you.

[32:57] Mmm. We are not affected by our circumstances, We affect dire circumstances for the cause of Christ. He tells me, I said, it's all right.

[33:11] I said, you need to marry her. We need to go before the church. You submit to your pastor and be restored. All right. It was a few days later, he left that little girl, started chasing another girl.

[33:27] About 13 months ago, I get another call. Larry, I need to come and see you.

[33:42] I said, fly on down. He got a ticket, flew to Birmingham. I went over and picked him up. He and I alone. So I got in the car.

[33:53] I said, well, what's going on? Well, I've met another girl. I said, you have? Now hang with me here. Don't you all get carnal.

[34:05] I said, you have? Yeah. I said, well, what's the story? She's pregnant. Anybody out there had any of this news?

[34:20] Huh? Anybody had any of this news? So we're driving back from Birmingham. I said, well, what are we going to do now? Well, I've come to submit to you and tell me what I need to do.

[34:33] I said, you need to go to your pastor. You need to. If this woman is the woman you think you need to marry, you need to marry her. Stand before the church. Repent. Confess your sins. Let God deal with it.

[34:45] He'll take care of it. And serve the Lord and get married. He stayed with me three days. I tried to get him to go to prayer. I go to prayer at the same time every day or almost every same time.

[34:58] Spend the same time. Didn't go. Every time I'd leave, Crystal would tell you he'd be somewhere else. Couldn't get him to go. I take him back to the airport. He flies out. Are you all still here?

[35:12] Eight months ago, nine months ago, his father and mother called me.

[35:23] Said, come up here. You got to talk to him. I said, I'm coming through. I'm going to be in Indianapolis. I'll stop on my way back through. As I stop, there he sits, this other girl, her pregnant.

[35:37] And he begins to tell me what the will of God is for his life. I didn't now hear me. You know, there was an opportunity there for me. I could have jacked him up, cleaned his plow, and left him laying there.

[35:51] He started telling me. I said, well, if that's God's will, then let's go ahead and get a marriage license. You marry her and let's go. He said, well, I want to know what you think.

[36:03] I said, do you want to know what I think? Or do you want me to tell you what you're thinking? He said, no, tell me what you're thinking. I said, she is not the woman for you. You have fell just like Samson.

[36:15] You've laid your head in Delilah's lap. She has clipped your hair. But that's all right. Your hair will grow back. God can still do what he intended to do.

[36:26] But you will have to return to the place where God began to anoint you so that he can do what he must do. He's crying. He's crying.

[36:37] She's crying. The mother and father are mad now because I have said what they wanted to say, but they didn't want it said. I leave. Six months ago, Daniel calls me.

[36:53] And I hear it in his voice. There's been a change. I've called to tell you that I've had an encounter with God.

[37:06] Oh, no, you're not hearing me yet. When you've been oxidized by the holy God. Honey, listen, I'm telling you, I could have killed this thing 15 months ago.

[37:18] He'd still be living in that woman's apartment with that woman that God had anointed for him to be with. Do I know everything for God and the will of your life or anyone else's?

[37:29] No. But I know his because God said, son, he is your Timothy and you will know and he will come to you for that knowing confirmation. But you know what?

[37:42] When you're in real revival, you don't stand there and say, I told you so. I knew you couldn't make it. I knew you'd mess up. I knew you'd go do it. I won't be surprised if next month you've got another woman and she ain't pregnant.

[37:56] You know what I'm talking about. Honey, hey. They don't understand. It's time the church understand that you don't want to.

[38:09] If you've been delivered from drugs, whatever it is, you know what? The enemy's still fighting. You're human. If we fall back, it isn't time to shoot them. It's time to go get them. Say, that's all right.

[38:20] God can take care of it. It's time. It's time. He called and said, Larry, I've had an encounter.

[38:34] I said, well, what are you going to do? He said, I know that Amy is my wife. I know she is the one. I said, well, we'll have to seek God because she hates you.

[38:46] Oh, it's the truth. Man, she hated him. Hello? Hello? Hello? Y'all still ain't heard the whole crux of this thing, have you? I'm describing to you the most adverse situation you could possibly have.

[39:03] And today, I spoke prophetically over two children that are born again, washed in the blood, baptized in the Holy Ghost. And they let their wedding be a place that Jesus Christ could be told.

[39:27] Then I told him, I said, here's what we're going to do. And I began to mentor him. I said, you call me once a week. I don't care when, where, or what. You call me once a week.

[39:38] I want to hear your voice once a week. He said, but I said, no, no, no. Once a week, I want to hear your voice and know that we're still on the same page.

[39:49] And God is still working in you. Every week, he has called me. He has not failed. Sometimes twice a week. And now, I tell you that when you've been oxidized by the mighty and holy presence of God, I don't care how bad it looks, God is still God.

[40:11] Hello, and I haven't even got to the real word.

[40:22] I just want you to understand that I've not come to condone negative talk anymore. Now, I've come to hear the truth about your children. Don't lie to me.

[40:33] Honey, if they're hooked on drugs, tell me. I'm not offended at that. If you've got a problem, I want to know it. But listen, I've not come to condemn you. Jesus said, I've not come to condemn the world, but I've come that they might have life through.

[40:46] What was he saying? I've not come to be a negative. I've come to be a positive. The church has got to be a positive in the earth. I've come to tell you that Riverside, even in your process of planning a building, ain't big enough.

[41:10] But, Brother Saylor, don't you know we're just a bunch of radical fanatics, and you know there ain't many folks want to be radically fanatic. You know what? I've come to smack that devil down, stomp his eyes out, and tell you that the world's waiting on something that's real.

[41:27] When you're in revival, this revival, one of the ways that you oxidize metal, is fire.

[41:53] How do you know that? When God touched me October of 99, he slipped me into an oven. And out in that oven I have been, whether I'm done yet or not, but I know that I'm closer to a liquid form than I've ever been.

[42:09] And I know that when I get liquid enough, he can pour me out into the world, and God can redeem the lost with that pouring out. Jesus said that it's like gold that's tried in the fire.

[42:29] Where are we? We are in the beginning stages of God making this gold transparent. Lord, I'm running it.

[42:43] Whether it's the right one, I'm running this one. Can I tell you now, and I know I sound like I'm bragging, but I'm bragging on God. Daniel and Amy, as we walked up to the platform to begin the wedding vows, before they would let anything transpire, they took the microphone and stood before a hundred and some people, friends, family, strangers, mothers and fathers.

[43:13] And Daniel looked at them, people sitting there, and he said, I want to tell you that I have sinned. I had sex before marriage with Amy.

[43:26] She got pregnant. I left her and found another woman. Did the same thing, and she got pregnant. But I'm here to tell you that God redeemed me.

[43:39] No, you're not hearing me. He stood there. When you've been in the fire, when you've been in the oxidation of God, it isn't about them seeing your sin.

[43:49] It's about them seeing Jesus Christ cover your sin. He stood there as his mother and father on the front row, her mother and father and grandmother, and became as transparent as he could possibly be.

[44:11] I'm sitting there, and I'm looking, and I'm thinking, God, what a man of God. I'm done shocking the body of Christ into revival. I've not come to shock you, but I've come to find out if there's anybody here that wants to tell the truth.

[44:30] Is there anybody that wants to be pure gold? Huh? Because if you'll be pure gold, God will pave his streets with you.

[44:41] Yeah. In this fire, this oxidization takes place, and the negative flows out.

[44:54] And now here's the thing. In the process of being oxidized, because the negative retreats, something happens to the positive, and it increases.

[45:05] It increases. Paul said, I must decrease, that he must increase. Shh, God.

[45:17] Where are we in revival? It's time for men. See, I don't care about preaching. I really don't care about singing. What I want is to be able to come, and God see that I have decreased out of his way, that he will increase and show up and manifest himself, and his glory reside in this place, and him redeem humanity.

[45:43] Anybody feeling like they've been oxidized? Huh? It's time. It's time. God, I want to say this, and I'm going to go and turn a corner here.

[46:00] I've come to tell you, sin hasn't tainted the blood of Jesus Christ. It hasn't weakened it.

[46:13] Anybody hearing me? Brother Darrell, our failure has not weakened our God. Our drug addiction has not caused our God's ability to waver or wane in it all.

[46:32] Our alcoholism has not caused God to be drunk on the wine of men. Do you hear me? Our immorality has not caused God to blush and turn his back.

[46:45] Our perversion has not caused God to run because he's God. And I'm telling you, no matter where you are and where you've been, God still loves you.

[47:01] Huh? Huh? How about them apples, boys? Huh? What are you saying?

[47:12] Man, I know that we have sinned and I'm not a fool and don't believe that we don't fail, but I don't look at your sin anymore. I've come to look at you and I see the potential for God to do something.

[47:25] Can I get a drink of water? Y'all want to? Amen. Are you still with me?

[47:40] Pastor, I'm okay. I dove out there. Am I all right? The first definition that I read to you was to burn to ashes or powder.

[47:58] Now, I want to talk to you from my life and if you glean anything from this, glean it from me because I'm not here to accuse or to bruise or to bust your bubbles.

[48:08] Is that all right? My, my, my. You all like being slapped around? I don't. But I want to talk to you. He says that true revival, the definition of it.

[48:22] Excuse me. Or, excuse me. One of those definitions is to burn it to ashes.

[48:34] Burn it to ashes or powder. In this calination or this process of oxidizing, another thing that happens in it is it reduces whatever that it's doing down to its natural state.

[48:54] No. You, I'm going to say that until you get that. It reduces whatever that it is oxidizing back to its natural state.

[49:10] I'm going to give you a few more minutes. Can I, I go to my minister's handbook and for you that have ever been to a funeral at the graveside when they're standing looking into that six foot hole and they've laid that box in there, there is a statement that says, God, we commit them now back to ashes, to ashes and dust, to dust.

[49:37] when you get in a place of real revival, God is going to reduce his church back to her natural state and get her back to where all that's burned off is not necessary but back to where he can do something with her again.

[50:01] Anybody feel like ashes tonight? Huh? Feel like you've been burned by the devil and left somewhere on the ash heap of life?

[50:20] Huh? Have you, do you understand what ashes are? Man, they ain't nothing other than fodder for the wind. Dry.

[50:32] Desolate. It isn't any, there's nothing you can do with those ashes. No. Can I tell you that I'm at this place in my life where I can't do anything about where I am.

[50:53] No, you're not here. I think there's somebody else here with me tonight. You're at a place where you can't do anything about where you are. You've tried to do something about it and you couldn't.

[51:06] You tried to change it and you couldn't. You tried to move it and you couldn't. You tried everything but you couldn't. Ashes.

[51:19] Ashes. This place where everything's burnt off, Jeremy. Jeremy. I'm a church kid. I'm a church I'm a 47 year old church kid but I'm a church kid.

[51:39] I've grown up in this house. I've been taught how to look at everything. I've been taught to hate Catholics. Hello.

[51:50] Now, and I know you don't want me to tell you the truth but I'm going to anyway. I'm hoping you'll see Jesus and you won't see me. I was taught that if you sinned, God was a God of judgment and if you didn't repent of that sin and even if you repented of it, you could wake up in the morning with an arm missing or a leg gone.

[52:15] Come on now. You know I'm telling you the truth. I'm not giving you a license to sin. Paul said to the Roman church, he said, God forbid that we would use grace as a license to do whatever but grace is sufficient.

[52:32] Listen to me now, come on. I was taught, honey, if you went to movies and I can hear the phone ringing at pastor's house, you heard what it said.

[52:45] But I was taught anything you did. Fishing was bad if you did it too much. Is this alright? I told you, he sets me down, I'm down.

[52:58] Man, I had formulated such an ideal, I thought that if you're spirit-filled you had to act this way to be spirit-filled.

[53:10] If you had the Holy Ghost you had to do this, you had to do that, you had to do the other. I was doing alright until I got on this, wasn't I?

[53:22] Huh? Can I tell you what I'm trying to say to you? In the ashes of my life now, as I sift through them, I can't find my ideals and my religiousness, I can't find my Pentecostalism, I can't find my stupid ways.

[53:45] They've been burned up and all I can see now is God and he is able to do something I could never do. I see him in the middle of that burnt rubble and I see him now taking me to a place I've never been.

[54:08] Ashes. This oxidization produces ashes. I don't know but I think there's some other folks here that are ashes. You've been burnt and you thought it was the devil but it was really God trying to bring you to a place of genuine revival.

[54:26] Come on guys. The word of God says that everything that can be shaken will be shaken. If you read the original translation it says everything that can be burned up will be burned up and all that will be left will be God.

[54:39] God. I don't know about you but all I want is him. I'm not looking for meetings.

[54:50] I'm not looking for churches. I'm not looking for a church to go to. I want God. I want to be able to walk into the Walmart like Charles Finney did and then God fall in that place and people begin to cry out is there a preacher in the house that we might be saved?

[55:09] you're not hearing me. Ashes. Ashes.

[55:23] You could say that God is getting us out of the box. And you know what your box is don't you?

[55:36] That's where you feel comfortable. It's where you feel confident. It's where you trust even when you can't trust God you trust that box. Oh come on somebody let me preach.

[55:48] It's that place where that we'll trust the Lord will say something and yet we won't know for sure it's God but we'll still we'll trust that box because it's never failed us. do you hear me?

[56:03] What's God doing? He's burning up our box. He's breaking us out. True revival honey. True revival. Real fire.

[56:20] I've had all of the flash fires that I want to be involved in. I've come for genuine holy ghost fire.

[56:32] Genuine holy ghost fire will leave nothing but the ashes. ashes. And don't worry because God takes ashes and makes his kingdom out of it.

[56:48] Can I give you some scripture to back this up? Are you okay? Is anybody here feeling like they've been burned up yet? Huh?

[56:59] Do you feel like you're there? Brother Darrell do you feel like you're there son? I know you are as God begin to speak this to me. I saw your face. God says he feels like that he's been left as a crispy critter.

[57:14] Hello? Sister Pat? Feel like you've been burned up? Been pastor's wife so long? Ain't nothing left spent? God had all gone. God says you know what?

[57:26] You've just become ashes. Revival is breaking out in you because when you're burnt down to that lump sum God suddenly you know what he'll do? He'll lean over it like he did that old clay that he formed on the bank of that river with his son and the Holy Ghost and he'll go and out of those ashes will raise up that woman of God that God intends and you'll not only be healed but you'll heal.

[57:50] You'll not only be delivered but you'll deliver. You'll not only be anointed but you shall anoint. You'll not only be healed the blind but you'll heal the blind. But he has to find your ashes before he can have revival.

[58:13] Job and everybody loves Job because Job is a slap at everything we believe. Job 30 verse 16 through 19 Job 30 it's right before Psalms if you're hunting.

[58:37] Job 30 it's the book prior to Psalms am I right on that? I think I'm right Anna. Yes I am. Lucky guess that's the wrong thing. Good guess good guess. Job chapter 30 verse 16 through 19 now notice what he says now can I tell you that that's the same now that's used in Hebrews chapter 11 the first verse when it says now faith is it's the same verb same now same word frame and he says and now my soul is poured out because of my plight the days of affliction take a hold of me my bones are pierced in me at night and my gnawing pains take no rest anybody there come on now don't you sit here and say man I ain't been having no problems

[59:46] I'm alright you know I don't know who he's preaching to but he ain't preaching to me I've come to tell you that I'm preaching to Larry tonight my pain has overtaken me I'm at this place but I know that I'm in the throes of genuine revival verse 18 by great force my garment is disfigured it binds me about as the collar of my coat notice verse 19 he has cast me into the mire I have become like dust and ashes!

[60:57] I know him and God has given back to me double what I had help me Lord pastor to say this in chapter 30 it is the turning point of Job's life hello can I describe the picture to you here he sits his friends have forsaken him he's lost his family his wife his money now he sits and you know where he is he's in the middle of a huge burned field he's in the middle of a place where they have burned the chaff to reveal the wheat he is sitting in a place of ashes no you ain't hearing me Job his sickness now that was inside of him has begun to produce an external appearance now he has huge purple balls all over him and he is sitting there with these huge balls on him the pus is running out of him he is at the very end of his life and the only thing that brings him comfort is he dips his hands down into that ash and he rubs it on those bulls and for a few seconds in time what gave him pain it now is relieved but it's in the ashes where God finds him that he begins the birth revival it's in those ashes that God finds him and he brings him out unto himself

[62:50] God ain't nobody hearing where are you Larry honey I'm sitting there and I don't want to offend you but Job is sitting there naked and there because the clothes he can't wear them what's that mean that he's sitting there with everything exposed there's nothing hidden I've come to tell you when you come to the ashes of your experience with God you ain't worried about covering your sin up you're worried about uncovering it that God might relieve you from that sin anybody hear me when real revival comes honey we won't run in here and try to get us relief we'll have us an open mic hear me preacher if I've ever heard anything

[64:02] I've heard this we'll have us an open mic we'll set that open mic down here it won't be for you to sing your special recitation it'll be for those that have come to the ashes of their life they've come to the place where there's no relief unless they come and they say God I have sinned not against man I have not sinned against woman or against the government I have sinned against you God and I've come that you might God forgive me because I've come to expose my sin y'all like this for a minute or two and I can hear in pastor's spirit

[65:04] God don't let them start tonight I say you know why he says that it isn't because it isn't what he wants but he knows you can't deal with the truth yet because you ain't been reduced to ashes yet either when we all get reduced to ashes honey the truth don't bother us because we all see ourselves as we really are we ain't nothing but dirt and burn up and we sin it all comes short of the glory of God Job where are you son I'm over in this wheat field what are you doing while I'm sitting here rubbing these ashes Job looks around and he says to

[66:05] God God you have now reduced me from a prominent man no you still ain't hearing me boys I'm telling you we have not you know and God when I was up here in February God was up to something in this house don't don't walk out of here and say he just said we wasn't God was up to something I saw it I know it I heard it but I'm here to tell you that you haven't yet seen real revival because God hasn't reduced you to a place of ashes he hasn't burned up who you are that he might be him in you ashes can't be identified there's only one way somebody has to know how to discern the DNA and if you remember I preached about DNA when I was here there is DNA in that dirt but we don't want them to find sailor DNA I want them to find the

[67:06] Jehovah God DNA when you been reduced to ashes by God his DNA is in that dirt Job where are you I'm over here rubbing these I'm ashes I'm ashes there's nothing left at this juncture in Job's life it's there that God begins to turn what's happening real revival is being birthed why did I have you turn to 2nd chronicles turn back there now turn to 2nd chronicles chapter 3 why there and I'm gonna tie it all up and you're gonna understand it now thank you Jesus does any of this make any sense to you you're saying amen and you're just saying

[68:07] I hope he stops long enough for us to get to McDonald's before it closes I know your heart ashes I'm telling you that we're in the beginnings of revival and the only evidence that I can prove and bring to you is the fact that I see myself and you know what I saw ashes all of my ideals all of my ambition all of my plans all of my programs all of my purposes that I had are gone and now I'm sitting here saying God I don't really care I just want you second chronicles chapter three notice here it says now

[69:11] Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah where the Lord had appeared to his father David at the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite to understand that you've got to turn back here let me find it here exactly you've got to go back to first chronicles the 21st chapter to understand what that means first chronicles 21 now Solomon has been anointed as the king in second chronicles chapter three this means that David has died come on hear me now don't let me get this far and you all quit on me and the word of the

[70:16] Lord says that God says to Solomon I want you now to build my house but now I want you to build it at Mount Moriah at the place of Ornan's threshing floor why is that significant 1st chronicles 21 David gets into a fight with Satan here's the fight Satan starts telling him how many he has David gets mad about that so he numbers all of Israel he breaks a commandment because God tells him what's he doing in other words he's standing toe to toe with the devil like a stupid kid saying my daddy is bigger than your daddy

[71:16] I've got more than you've got hello that's exactly what the devil wants he wants us to get into a numbers game that he'll try to fool us to think that his kingdom is greater than our kingdom not ours but God's like I said this is fresh so if I make a mistake you've got to give me leeway so David numbers Israel man and I'm telling you God rebukes him honey he's in trouble God says to him he gives him three choices so many days of punishment punishment into the hands of people or fall on the mercy of God three choices honey I don't know about you but I don't want put in the hands of people anymore they haven't done me a whole lot of good how about you and you know what

[72:19] I don't want so many days of punishment either I just soon fall into the mercy of God if I fall on the rock and I break I'd rather fall on that rock and break than the rock to fall on me and crush me I'm telling you if we're going to have genuine revival and we're going to seek God it's time the church fall on the rock and let us be broken and with a contrite heart that God can do something in us again if we don't fall on this rock it is going to fall on us David says I will fall on the mercy of God so God says to David I want you to go over to Ornan let me start reading it to you verse 24 oh wait a minute let me back up let's start at verse 21 so David came to

[73:23] Ornan Ornan looked and saw David he went out from the threshing floor and bowed before David with his face to the ground then David said to Ornan grant me the place of this threshing floor that I may build an altar on it to the Lord and you shall grant it to me at the full price that the plague may be withdrawn from the people but Ornan said to David take it to yourself let my Lord the king do what is good in his eyes look I also give you the ox for the burnt offering and the threshing implements of wood and the wheat for the grain offering I give it all then David says to Ornan no but I will surely buy folks I've come to tell you that this mamby pamby easy thing that we've said that we wanted we wanted laid up and eased out to us

[74:24] I've come to tell you that this thing this thing of revival is going to cost you what it's going to cost you is you God sent revival but let it come on pastor van God sent us revival but let sister pat get it and let me have a little of it God sent revival on jesse and let him get crazy and I'll touch him every once in a while get my hoochie coot I've come to tell you we're in revival but it has got a price David says to Ornan thank you for the offer but no thank you I've not come to give you greasy grace that will slide you into heaven I've come to tell you that God wants you and he wants you bad but he wants you to come with a whole heart and give your self unto him he is tired of your worthless offerings and your silly sacrifices he wants you and you alone let me finish reading the king said no but I will surely buy it from you for the full price for I will not take what is yours for the

[75:53] Lord nor offer burnt offerings with that which cost me nothing so David gave one and 600 shekels of gold by weight for the place and David built there an altar to the Lord and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings and called on the Lord and he answered him from heaven by fire on the altar of the burnt offering let me go back let me read 2nd chronicles chapter 3 to you again apparently you're not grabbing this it says now Solomon began to build the house of the Lord at

[76:54] Jerusalem on Mount Moriah where God had appeared to him or to his father David at the place where David had prepared on the floor at Ornan's where David had prepared the threshing floor you still I'm waiting on you I'm not going nowhere take this I'm done first chronicles 29 or 20 I'm sorry 21 the word of the Lord because David has sinned he has now purchased Ornan's threshing floor because

[78:02] God has got to deliver his people and David is the one that's going to do that he builds an altar now on this place where once they threshed out the wheat now it's going to be a place where sacrifice is offered to God and it just isn't any sacrifice it's the burnt offering you still ain't getting it I'm going to give you time to catch up with me in 2nd chronicles chapter 3 David has died Solomon is king and God says to him son now I want you to build my house you still ain't getting it I'm going to get me a drink of water here mmm where are we Larry I can't diagnose everything and I'm not here to tell you that

[79:05] I do know everything guys anybody that stand up here and tell you they know it all they're a liar and the truth ain't in them but this I do know that we are in the beginning stages of a revival that absolutely can't be stopped by you it can't be stopped by me it can't be stopped by the devil it can't be stopped by the church it can't be stopped by any government it can't be stopped by Saddam Hussein it can't be stopped!

[79:31] by terrorism! it can't be stopped by on the floor at Ornan's thrashing place why there because that's where the burnt offering that's where the ashes are what are you saying brother Larry what is it you're telling us this thing of revival Darrell it ain't happening out there you could yell that a little louder it ain't happening at the Walmart somebody got it it ain't happening over at Freedom Hall it ain't happening you know out there on the fair grounds it isn't happening out here on

[80:43] Lee's Lane no! Hunter I'm here to tell you that God's favorite place is still this house Israel do you do you understand that when Solomon began to build he didn't go to somewhere else he came back to the place where his father built that altar that burnt that bullock on it and offered it under the god he came back to where the ashes were because in those ashes God knew that he could birth revival because God's looking for that that's been burned up.

[81:31] Where is it? It's in the house of God. What is it we're looking for? It's Ornan's thrashing floor. Why his thrashing floor?

[81:43] Because David had an encounter with God there. I feel the preacher now more than I felt him in this whole thing.

[82:04] Can I tell you that I don't care what anybody tells you God's still going to give his house an encounter. He's still going to appear to her. No matter what humanity says it doesn't matter what preacher says what God's still going to give us an encounter.

[82:22] But where's he going to give it to us? It's going to be on the floor of Ornan. Why there? Because that's where the ashes are. That's where your healing is.

[82:35] That's where your deliverance is. God. God. That's where your Holy Ghost is. Where? It's in the ashes of that place where God burnt up the offering.

[82:47] Are we in revival?

[82:58] Ain't no doubt about it. Are you ashes? I couldn't tell you. I think there's some folks here that's ashes. Are you sis?

[83:09] You feel like you've been burnt up and left for gravy? You know that's how you make gravy. You burn flour and put milk in it. Hello.

[83:22] I can't cook but I know enough to know that. There's a lot of folks been burnt up and left for gravy. And we blame the devil.

[83:34] Honey we've said it's the devil. And it's been God. Uh oh. Oh no. Can't be. Oh yeah. I'm here to tell you the devil hasn't done anything to me. No you're not hearing me.

[83:46] Help me. Come on now. Listen. Listen. Jesse. When you was lost.

[83:57] The devil may have made you do it. But now that you're saved. And you're washed in that blood. He can't make you do a thing. What's happening in you is what God's doing.

[84:08] Honey if you feel like you're on the back side of the desert. God put you there. The devil didn't. If you feel like you're walking through fire. The devil didn't put you in that fire. God did. If you feel like you're in the desert.

[84:20] The devil didn't put you in that desert. God did. Why? Because he's come to reduce your life to ashes. So that he can raise up out of you. Healing. And remove all that that's in you.

[84:31] That's held you back. You hear me. It's God. He's doing this thing. It isn't me.

[84:44] It's God. Everywhere you turn man seemed like. Oh gone. It burned up right before my eyes. God's saying I've come to find me some ashes.

[85:02] Why? Because in those ashes. It doesn't say here lies a good man. Here lies a great preacher.

[85:12] Here lies a healer. Here lies a rich man. Doesn't say nothing that them ashes. He just looks and says. Hmm. I believe I can blow in them.

[85:24] And they'll live again. Huh. Are you ready for revival? I mean are you ready?

[85:35] Then you've got to say God burn me up. Burn me up. I've come to tell you and release it to you that revival is here.

[85:46] It's not coming. I've not brought it but it's here. I've just come to tell you that it's on this house. But God's come for the ashes. Yes. Yes. What are those ashes?

[86:02] They are the burnt offering. Well what's God going to burn up? It's you. Huh.

[86:15] Can I start what I'm going to tell you tomorrow tonight? I'm going to do this and then I'm going to try to quit. I don't know what to do. You ever been there? So I'm telling you.

[86:27] You know. I'm wanting to quit. But I feel the preacher as strong as I felt him yet. Huh. Can I tell you. You're saying brother. What is it? What is it about it?

[86:37] I'm here to tell you that a few days ago I went to prayer and I told God May the 7th of this month or last month. I said God. I didn't call him God.

[86:49] I called him Father. I don't know how you talk to him but I talked to him like his dad. And I said Father I've come here today and I'm not leaving until I get some answers.

[87:00] Hmm. Huh. Hello. Brother Darrell. It's time. It's time. I remember him telling the story about Charles Finney.

[87:13] Or not Charles Finney but Charles Wesley as he sat down in the saddle of a horse. And he told God. He said God I'm going to ride this horse until that you fill me with the Holy Ghost and with the evidence of it.

[87:27] And it says that as he slung his leg over that saddle it wasn't the time in the saddle. It was the heart that sat in the saddle. And his leg hit the other side. And God said and Wesley said that something came over him.

[87:42] And he began to speak in the angelic language of another dimension. And I said God I'm not leaving this house until you talk to me.

[87:56] As I walked that sanctuary I talked until I was done talking. And God started talking. I told him I said Father I'm not happy with where I am.

[88:14] Hello. I don't know about you. But what I had yesterday stinks. Father I know they're going to get upset.

[88:29] But you're looking at us and he's as nuts as a fruitcake. You got that straight baby. Let me be a fool for Christ. But I said God I can't go on like this.

[88:44] Jeremy I'm telling you. And we've had some I mean some encounters bro. I'm talking God has done some things in the last few months that just blow me away.

[88:57] I told him I said I can't God. I'm at the end here. Unless I have your glory. I can't.

[89:08] I'm not. If I leave here today without an answer. I'm going to work. I'm moving home. I'm getting out of here. And I'm going back to Kentucky. Hello.

[89:20] My sons are sitting here. They've never heard me talk like this. They've never seen me preach like this. I've got one son under the pew and the other one trying to burrow his head through the back wall to get out.

[89:39] But guys I'm telling you. I went there with a made up heart. Darrell I wasn't leaving. Ro I'm telling you. I wasn't leaving. I don't care if they'd burnt the house down pastor. I wasn't leaving.

[89:50] I walked and talked with God. I cried. I begged him. And Jeremy I mean I begged him. Finally after about an hour of walking and talking my prayer team come in. And just as they came in.

[90:02] I rounded a place where God now for the last three years. It seems like if he's going to say something to me. He says it to me at that spot. I don't know why he does that.

[90:13] I don't care why he does it. I'm just glad that he has somewhere that there's a thin place where he can show up. And somehow or another he can awaken and stop me and say something to me.

[90:28] I came to that point. And I told him. I said God I got to know. I got to have it. See this isn't an occupation.

[90:40] It's not a vocation. You understand what I'm saying to you? This isn't vocation. This is not something that I'm doing because I want to have a job.

[90:52] It's life to me. It's everything that I want. Everything that I live is within this. I got to have it God. God says to me.

[91:06] He says Larry. I love it when he calls me by my name. Freaks me slap out. He knows my name. Man I tell you.

[91:21] He knows. Connie's name. Annie. Anna. Okay Connie. Anna. You don't remember. But you're all sisters. I was close.

[91:34] Good enough. He says Larry. You're one step. Away. From my glory.

[91:51] Do you hear me? Pastor if I've ever heard anything. I know what I heard. I heard him tell me. You're one step away.

[92:03] You're one step away.
