jaic jaic of course is that place where

Jacob wresty with the Lord under to God

it’s where in fact he got his new

character he got his new name Israel it

was a place where he cast down once and

for all his last Idol and he won his

great final glorious Victory not that he

didn’t have temptations beyond that

point but something happened in Jacob

that would Mark him for life and he rose

up that night Genesis

32:22 and passed over the Fjord

javic now jaic means a place of passing

over it represents a struggle it means

to empty yourself it means to pour

oneself out and Bo what a glorious

Revelation is is revealed in this place

called javic because it has everything

absolutely everything to do with us

today it’s a place where God’s people

disu cover the secret of power over

every single besetting

sin I all that I had heard this message

and received him Holy Spirit 20 years

ago it represents a life and death

crisis the Holy Spirit brings to us and

it’s this crisis that he brings us to at

javic that leads us to an absolute total

surrender of our lives and there can be

no glorious victory over self or sin

until you go to this place and this is

is the place the final ultimatum where

God says you and I are going to have it

out we’re going to deal with every area

of your life you’re going to face

yourself you’re going to be emptied of

all your evil desires and all your

selfish Ambitions and I’m going to

change not only you I’m going to change

your character and everything there’s

about

you now in the past Believers have been

taught that there are two Crossings in

the life of a Christian the Red Sea in

the Jordan and the Red Sea Crossing

represents the coming out of the world

it speaks of new start in other words

getting saved a lot of people of course

you know as well as I do come out of

Egypt and they get stuck in the

wilderness they never do go into the

promised land they get stuck in this

Wilderness of unbelief and fear and

confusion the majority of Christians

have left Egypt you can say truly they

got saved but they’re stuck in confusion

they’re trying to you know you ever hear

the word coping can you imagine coping

with this marvelous Gift of Life the

Lord has given us we’re trying to cope

with this gift called life

they leave the world but they never

really do enter into his fullness so

they talk about another Crossing and

that is represented by the Jordan now

the Jordan represents the further

commitment to the Lord that’s water

baptism it’s Bible reading it’s

witnessing it’s a desire to grow in

Jesus it’s it’s a passing on to a life

of praise and for many this promis land

represents the fullness of the Holy

Spirit and many in the Pentecost we

would believe that the baptism holy

ghost in and with the Holy Spirit is the

crossing of the Jordan into a fuller

light now I don’t like the word Full

Gospel by the way that suggests that

others have only a half a gospel I don’t

like the word charismatic it sounds like

a disease like asthmatic it’s an

overused

word and uh all these terms that people

use but you see Christians well is that

all there is isn’t that you you go to

the promised land and that’s it God

gives you your

inheritance you you enter into this

spiritual Canan for the children of God

you get saved baptized in the Holy Ghost

what else is there well you see the

children of Israel did get their inher

they entered the promised land they got

their iner but they never did enter in

to the rest that God wanted them to have

because when they did get to Canaan land

these God-fearing Spirit Le people still

had sin in their

hearts they still held to their secret

lost in fact the idolatry had never been

fully removing their hearts they got

their inheritance all right but they

didn’t get the rest that remained and

that rest has to do with full surrender

of sin he’s not talking about some uh

kind of mental attitude goes deeper than

that and tragically this is the way it

is today multitudes is Spirit-filled

Believers have never known the true rest

of God their peace is constantly

disturbed by a troubled conscience there

is a contradiction at the center of

their

lives God said of Israel that Israel

could not enter in because of unbelief

he said therefore there remaineth yet a

rest of the people of God now if you

understand this it suggests that it’s

possibly saved Spirit-filled totally

dedicated the work of the Lord doing his

work and still be hooked by secret sin

it’s possible to still go to Canan and

still be an idolator and still hold on

to the thing at the center of your heart

it’s possible to cast out devils in

Christ’s name to heal the sick perform

miracles to discern to do great works

all the name of Jesus and still be sin

hooked by a deep

iniquity and only God knows how many

Christians in America today carry this

losing carry on this losing battle

against an habituating sin they fight a

craving even after they’re saved craving

for drugs and alcohol and sex they say

well I dearly love the Lord you see

there’s just this one thing left in my

life I’ve just not gotten the victory a

little besetting sin not besetting in

modern terms is the sin that keeps

hassing you it’s the thing that the

monkey on your

back uh they hate this sin but they keep

doing it they don’t want to give up on

Christ they don’t want to go back into

the world but they can’t seem to lay

down this one Idol now they’ve given the

Lord the whole land but one little

castle they just hold on this little

thing isn’t a little thing Lord isn’t it

little the little fox and srls of Vine

and all even the men and women of God

including Minister the gospel today all

through the country or struggling with

an inner Idol or besetting sin oh I’ve

met men around the country of great

great hunger for God they wouldn’t think

of going to the beggarly elements of the

world they’d rather die and they hunger

and thirst for the fullness of Christ

they cry for Holiness they’re really

dedicated they’re hardworking men and

women of God the still this one little

thing it’s a lingering problem it’s an

idol it causes them grief and tears they

are torn with guilt and condemnation

they feel helpless they feel unworthy

and confused I’ve known of people who

fast and pray they make promises but all

of a sudden they’re overwhelmed and the

thing they don’t want to do they do and

they’re left helpless they say I just

can’t help myself then they try to bite

the bullet they want to burn it out they

want to force it out and it’s always

their Uprising when they least expect it

now for years years I’ve I’ve struggled

with the Theology of victory over sin

I’m not talking about this term sinless

Perfection but I’m talking about is a

Freedom From Slavery to any sin or any

lust to be free from the slavery to it

and few men have studied more than I

have about the doctrine of

sanctification the past two years I’ve

studied and read about

Holiness and and you see in New York I

worked with the worst sin slaves in the

whole world

so I really wanted an answer and I’ve

been I’ve been really struggling for

years to be able to present simply and

clearly a message on how anybody hooked

on sex drugs alcohol hate not sometimes

you know we cop a plea we we totem pull

our sins we put homosexuality on the top

for example and pride down here at the

bottom should be the other way around in

the sight of God but you see all these

things that are in heart and I wanted to

give a sign a message from the Lord that

would make it clear not a

oversimplification but a very clear

picture that I could understand and I

know if I could understand I could

preach it because I’m pretty

thick and and uh I thought what about

all these ministers and others who carry

on secret

Affairs husbands and wives are giving up

on their marriages by the millions now

hoping to find someone else who pleases

the more and they go around talking

about how bad things are at home lying

about the condition to justify running

off and carrying on a secret affair they

say isn’t it horrible in my house they

go around sharing how terrible a husband

or wife is just justifying their

action to excuse the secret love affair

with somebody else this this sexual lust

there’s adulter there’s fornication

that’s sweeping through the church like

a black plague you know that I don’t

have to get into all the sorted details

of it but come on now folks isn’t there

any victory over all this runaway lust

in the church isn’t there a voice

somewhere there something that we can

get a hold of that we don’t have to

become a victim and lay down and let the

spirit of the age roll over us like a

steamroller do does a child of God have

to go all through life as a slave to

some besetting sin is there no place of

final Victory I don’t mean final Victory

from

temptation but freedom from giving in

to the

lust now see there’s a third Crossing

here’s my message there’s a third

Crossing javic now jaic was a tributary

of the Jordan it was a fur that flooded

many times and uh it was a lonely

place and this this jabit Crossing is

the lonliest Crossing because you see

the Red Sea Crossing you can cross with

the m multitudes there are 3 million

Jews crossing the Red Sea you know all

the multitudes that get saved you’re

swept in and usually if you come to one

of my means you get saved with the

dozens that come forward and they swept

across the

Jordan and you can even pass the Red Sea

you can pass the Jordan with Mighty

armies of God all about you but javic

you’ll cross all

alone there are no crowds around there

no armies around it’s a very very lonely

Crossing

no counselors no friends no helpers this

is your private war just between you and

God and Jacob was left alone and there

Wrestled a man with him until the

breaking of the day and Jacob was left

alone and see javic is where the Jacob

in in us gets his final death

blow it’s where God deals with this not

only about our sin but about our very

character and where we’re going

in our personality and in our character

whether or not we’re going to grow or

get stuck somewhere because of our sin

you see at this point Jacob’s a troubled

and very desperate man God’s put his

back against the wall so to speak he’s

returning now after all these years to

get his inheritance Esau his brother

that he swindled his Birthright from

he’s coming at him over here with an

army of

400 and and here’s Jacob now a mature

man he’s now a loving father

he’s obedient to the Lord after all he’s

obeying God’s command to go back to his

homeland and he’s doing exactly what God

told him to do and he was now a lover of

Truth he’s a humble man he’s a praying

man now here it is in the scripture

listen to it oh God I am not worthy

Jacob said of the least of thy mercies

and of all the truth which thou has

showed unto me thy servant oh God I’m

not

worthy of the least of thy mercies I’m

not worthy of anything that you’ve done

he’s a humble that’s the Cry of a humble

man now he’s obedient he’s a praying man

he’d been praying already before he even

got across the J he’s he’s a praying man

but this humble obedient praying

God-fearing truth loving servant who’s

into Revelation knowledge and everything

else is still into

appeasement that means appeasement means

giving into a danger

power to avoid trouble it means keeping

peace at any cost even

compromise

boy how this strikes it what’s happening

in the church today see Jacob instead of

trusting God in his crisis he’s

beginning to work angles he tries to

think his way through his problem he

divides his cattle into separate droves

he sends him over drove after drove to

soften his brother’s heart he’s going to

bombard Esau with wave after wave of

gifts of goats camels Bulls sheep

donkeys Rams here they come and the

Bible says for he said I will appease

him giving

in to a dangerous

power appeasement and that’s where the

majority of Christians are today have

you ever heard it I just can’t help it I

didn’t want to I don’t want to do this I

hate my sin but in spite of all my

superhuman efforts I give in and I fall

so we appease it we sin and confess we

weep and

confess then if that doesn’t work we try

to we stay up half the night trying to

think our way out we work angles and we

scheme we try to justify we excuse we

plan it’s all in vain because we seem

powerless against an overwhelming need

or

desire oh we’re obedient now we’re

praying we’re seeking the truth we’re

humble we’re loving we’re kind we’re God

but there it

is there’s that fly in the ointment

there’s this secret hold out deep in the

innermost of their heart there’s still a

bit of appeasement there’s still a

little scheming there’s one Idol

standing not yet totally yielded not yet

fully under the total lordship of the

Lord Jesus

Christ all right let me show you what

happens at

javic first of all at

javic

religion gives way to

spirituality now one can be very

religious and not be spirit at all you

know that Jacob had had a very very

religious experience years before at

bethl on his way to Pat and arum to find

a wife of his own people he had amazing

very amazing religious

experience and here’s what it’s

described and Jacob dreamed and beheld a

ladder set up on the earth and on the

top and the top of it reached to heaven

and behold the angels of God ascending

and descending it

Genesis

28:12 you see God appeared to this man

oh that’s a very religious experience

when God Appears to you and he made a

covenant he made an agreement with him

and it was a promise of a material

blessing he said Jacob I will give you

the land where on thou Li liest I Will

Bless thy seed and Jacob was overwhelmed

he cried out how awesome the Lord is in

this

place and he calls it bethl and right

then and there this religious man

proceeds to make a deal with God see

Jacob caught on the only thing he heard

was the blessing

part I’m going to bless you Jacob now

God was trying to unfold he was trying

to open the Heavens to Jacob to show him

the glory of God and the realities of

the spirit but

Jacob something resounded in his heart

that blessing part what was that

blessing

part and here’s what Jacob see Jacob

right there and there says I’m going to

take it and he makes he makes a blessing

pack he said if God will be with listen

see how familiar this sounds if God be

with me and will keep me in this way

that I go if he will give me bread to

eat and if he will give me rment to put

on so that I come to my father’s house

in peace and in the original says in

success then shall the Lord be my God if

you bless me me now I’m not putting

these words in that’s in the King James

version if you will bless me then I will

surely give you back the T give it to me

Lord so I can give it to

you you see Lord if you give me bread if

you’ll give me clothes if you will

prosper me if you will bless me then

I’ll serve

you you you think of it God’s in the

place the heavens are open the angels

are running up and down this latter God

speaking

what a

supernatural surrounding and all Jacob

can see is a deal for land and food and

clothes and prosperity and success in

all his

ways it was strictly a religious

experience all the

way now bethl is the religion of our

day like Jacob our cous Spirits

interpret God’s promises only in

materialistic

ways we we go so so far as to desecrate

the precious atonement of the Lord Jesus

Christ and in all these high sounding

religious phrases we talk about the

power of Christ shed blood but those who

preach this Prosperity message are

desecrating the atonement of the Lord

Jesus

Christ they are blind to the true

meaning of the suffering of Jesus Christ

on the cross all they can see out of it

is this deal the atonement to them means

health wealth prosperity and deliverance

from the curse of poverty it’s Bethal

it’s

religious they don’t see his power over

sin they don’t see that it provided

freedom to sacrifice to suffer to to

serve willingly to suffer the sparting

of our Goods if necessary for the sake

of

Christ to gain an Incorruptible Crown to

suffer the loss of all things and not

let it bother you because the atoma

provided something better

an eternal

inheritance what about all the

multitudes of carismatic people who are

worshiping at bethl now what about all

the preachers and teachers who are stuck

at bethl claiming all the bethl rights

and

Promises well over the past few months

I’ve been pretty hard on them and I’ve

been kind

of you know just been wrapped on the

knuckles a little bit because I was

thinking some of them were

demon-possessed

no the Lord says they’re just religious

people they’re not spiritual they’re

religious very religious that you can be

very devout like the Pharisees very very

Pious and very very devout and use all

the phrases and be very very

religious like Jacob you can experience

great Revelations you can see Angels you

can even hear from God but at bethl the

flesh is in control

it’s a place of religion it’s not true

spirituality it’s a partial Revelation

it goes for all the blessings while

ignoring the Deep inner struggle Jacob

didn’t deal with the inner man at Bethel

God wanted to but he missed the

point just being in the presence of the

Lord without dealing with the Jacob

nature in us and that’s why we need a

javic secondly javic is a place of

absolute surrender absolute surrender

it’s a place of total victory over your

besetting

sin now you’re not ready for this

passing this final passing this third

passage maybe you’ve been over the Red

Sea and you’ve been across the Jordan

but you’re not ready for jabing until

you’re

desperate you have to come to the end of

yourself your burden of sin’s got to

bring you down to a life and death

crisis and look at this crisis that

Jacob faces now and one side Esau’s

closing in the other side God’s closing

in and there’s a whole host of heavenly

Witnesses and Jacob realized he’d been

cornered he couldn’t go any further it

was the absolute end of the line and

outside of am Miracle he said I’m

exposed I’m dead I can’t go on this is

it Jacob sins had caught up with him you

see for 20 years he played a game he BL

LED his way through he’ survived on his

cunning coverups but now he couldn’t go

on not even a day not of a

step Jacob this night was going to be

forced to look God in the eye eye to eye

and see himself for what he really was

he was not this great patriarch anymore

he’s not this great man of God he’s not

that uh vious Christian

witness you’re not that bible school

student anymore

mm- this time Jacob means

business this man wants to be free now

oh he hungers and his heart cries for

freedom and it took an all night

struggle he wanted before this night was

over to look the whole world in the eye

he wanted to look God me on the whole

world and say I’m

clean my reproach has been removed he

was seeking

cleansing and he said unto him this is

the Lord speaking to him now in the

midst of his resing and the Lord said to

him what is your name and he said

Jacob now Jacob knew what his name meant

meant heill

Grabber

grabbing always he

grabbing one who cheats he cheated his

brother he cheated himself he cheated

God and tried to cover it

up and what the Lord’s really saying to

to Jacob now he’s saying Jacob look at

yourself look at what you become because

you hold on to this look what You’

become you’ve become a permanent Chief

it’s become a part of your nature it’s

ingrained in

you no more excuses Jacob for once in

your life face reality face the truth be

deadly honest or you’re not going to get

the victory this is it Jacob tonight’s

the

night and out it comes all the pent up

tears and condemnation and guilt and he

said oh Lord now I’m paraphrasing here

but he said oh Lord in Modern English

I’m a

phony I’m sure Jacob could have said I

I’m religiously out outward religious

but inwardly I know that I’m a grabber

I’m a cheat I’ve played with fire too

long I’ve been excusing my actions I’ve

Justified my sins oh God forgive

me now you and I can find no victory

over that lingering sin until we Face a

final deadline from

God there has to come a deadline where

God says this far no further we’re going

to deal with this

now you’ve got to face the reality that

God’s justice and judgment against your

sin has to grip you with the finality

and the reason American people play with

their sins because they have no fear of

God they don’t even believe in Divine

Justice

you were

loved you know you’re going to make it

don’t

worry you loved we’re

loved there’s no question about that but

folks you and I are not different if

God’s going to judge sin in the world

he’s going to judge it even more in the

church you’ve got to know that you and I

are not special people immune to

judgment

or

exposure you must face the fact that God

in his love must give you a deadline a

last chance to obey

completely now that doesn’t mean that

his grace is withdrawn it doesn’t mean

that his love and his Mercy is limited

there comes a time when God can no

longer hold you back from the wages of

your

sin God has to give you the deadline

because he knows that death is around

the corner he knows that there’s problem

that spiritual death that people enter

into when they disobey God not everybody

like ananas and a fire dropped dead

there’s something far more awesome and

horrifying and that’s the spiritual

death that’s just around the corner the

Lord sees it and to avoid that he’s got

to rush us to jab it and say we’re going

to deal with it because God sees what’s

happening God sees what’s right around

the

corner he said lust conce it brings

forth sin and sin death and he’s got to

deal with us before that spiritual death

sets in you’ve got to face the reality

you can’t go on living aivee no matter

how blessed you are no matter how

anointed no matter what great things

you’ve accomplished in his name God will

not permit an open-ended license to do

anything we

please he says you’re going to obey me

or you’ll be

exposed he said you’re going to reap now

what you have

sld and folks here you here here you

come to jab in a jab you face the ugly

truth you confess it in all its ugly

details you go to him I don’t care what

your sin is you say oh Lord I’m if it’s

adult I’m an adulter if you’re

fornicated I’m a

fornicator I’m know better than the hars

and the homosexuals who walk the street

hustling in bus stations oh God I’m the

worst liar in the

church Lord I’ve been cheating I’m not

what people think I am and Lord I know

you’ll have to expose it I know I have

to pay the price for what I’m doing so

take it Lord take it now I’ll take it

I’ve reached the end of

myself Lord I don’t want to carry this

terrible bird one more day I’ve got to

be free I’m tired of playing a

role and it jab it when you reach that

point of desperation you this this

tremendous sense of God’s Divine wrath

and judgment against sin you know that

he loves you you know that you’re under

grace and it was under grace that ananas

and a fire dropped dead and it wasn’t

over money or land either God didn’t

need their land he didn’t need their

money no no no no folks they died

afraid because there was fear of God in

the first Pentecostal Church of

Jerusalem and if we had the same kind of

fear people be dropping dead now over

the

church God didn’t kill him doesn’t say

that Peter didn’t kill

him you know that that fear is

gone I tell you something folks when

I’ve been shutting myself alone with God

the past few months that awesome Fear

The Glorious fear of God oh I glory in

his grace I glory in his Mercy but it’s

because of his grace and his Mercy you

realize that that Grace cannot be

abused and you have to come to this

final deadline you say oh God I can’t

carry it anymore I want to be delivered

I want to be a free man I want to be a

free woman and that sense of God’s

judgment comes Upon Our Hearts and

that’s gri me in its

fullness you say I have heard people say

over the years oh we are kept from sin

by the power of his love

oh Peter said knowing the terror of the

Lord hey folks has any generation

received more preaching about love than

this generation has it done the job

no the only thing left is the message on

the Judgment you see it jab it Christ

delivers us not only from our he setting

sin but he does it by changing our

character uh the great old preacher

talked about the expulsive power of a

new affection that you can’t get rid of

one affection till you replace it with a

more powerful affection well that’s the

way God does he pushes the old character

out by giving us a new

one and he said thy name shall be called

No More Jacob but Israel for as a prince

thou has power with God and with man

you’ve prevailed Jacob you’ve

prevailed you see

he said you’re prevailing now through

the power of a new character to Prevail

means to gain the upper hand the victory

superiority you see the Lord’s not

interested in you getting the victory

over just your besetting sin he won’t

let you pick and

choose because if you get the victory

over this one it’ll be setting sin

there’ll be another take its place and

crop up over here it just look like

those little moles we have over there

you kill them here and he sticks his

head up over here what they call the

little golfers

you get rid of one gopher in your life

and there’ll be another gopher pop its

head up somewhere else no he going to

deal with your character your very

nature and see this desperate night he’s

facing the truth and and the Lord

touched him and the Lord cripples him

and one of the greatest Miracles the

Lord can perform in our life is to

our human efforts make us

totally dependent on the holy spirit

it’s the best thing God could ever do

for you and me

you get to jabing and and you won’t go

bouncing

out you’ll crawl

out humbled and crippled and crying oh

God I made that surrender I laid down my

sin my idol is down but I can’t keep the

victory without Supernatural help you

brought me to this place of absolute

obedience now it’s up to you to sustain

in my commitment give me Supernatural

help and all God moves Heaven and Earth

supernaturally for the man goes to javic

man or woman who faces that final

deadline at javic

God God supernaturally changes your

character it’s a supernatural work of

the holy

spirit that brings me to the most

important part of all number three javic

is a place of an open

Heaven you get rid of your besetting sin

automatically opens the heavens again

God reveals himself only to the people

who get rid of their God

Gile means deceit dishonesty and secret

sin and listen to the promise that Jesus

gave to Nathaniel one of the 12 Jesus

saw Nathaniel coming to him and saith of

him behold an Israelite indeed in whom

is no guile no deceit because I said

unto thee I saw thee under the Fig Tree

believest thou thou shall see greater

things than these verily verily I say

unto you Hereafter ye shall see Heaven

open open the angels of God ascending

and descending upon the son of man

that’s what Jacob had remember that’s

what happened again at javic the heavens

open again to

Jacob he alone Nathaniel was the only

disciple that got this promise and what

Jesus was saying Nathaniel there’s no

deceit in you there’s no dishonesty in

you you’re an open book there’s no

hidden work of sin in your life nothing

is hindering the flow you’re going to be

given an open Heaven you’ll see things

that few others see I’ll give you full

Revelation because there’s no

gu oh how the Lord wants to open our

hearts to this truth because it’s our

Gile that closes the heavens and they

become brass that’s why javic is so

necessary it’s a place to lay down our

final remains of guilt and Gile and

deceit and dishonesty so the heavens are

open again because it is true our sins

hide his face from us

Jacob renames javic pan which means the

face of God because I have seen God face

to face and my life is preserved now

Jacob’s a spiritual man no longer

religious man no more talk about

material blessings lands and food and

clothes and success he’s seen the face

of God it’s not cattle now it’s

Christ the heavens are open again the

ladder reappears

but now he understands the deepest

meaning of this open Heaven he sees it

as access to the

father it’s a means of getting to know

him it’s a matter of sitting in Heavenly

places in Christ Jesus it’s the glory of

his presence at the sound of his voice

the values are all spiritual now Jacob

becomes a spiritual

man Jacob had Wasted

Years he could have enjoyed years of an

open Heaven the heavens have been closed

to him because of his gal look how he

cheats he keeps on I don’t care I get

upset at ministers who talk about how

inventive Jacob was and after all they

been cheated him so he had a right to

cheat him what kind of theology is that

somebody cheat you you have a right to

cheat them no Jacob

cheated he marries

Leah he’s tricked into that and despises

her what kind of a man is that who

despises his wife this man the heavens

had been closed to him he had no open

[Music]

Heaven you know I

really there’s danger in saying well hey

you know in the recent years I’ve had a

revelation of the Lord God’s drawing me

closer and everything I’ve done before

then is useless no I don’t say that I

thank God for all he’s done in the past

life in my past life I thank God for all

the blessings in New York and the

streets and people have been saved but

oh I thank in the recent months and

years he brought me to

javic I thank God that there was a night

an all night for me when

God held my face up to the mirror and

made me take a long hard look and it was

so ugly it was so

unbelievable that I couldn’t believe I

said God you had a right to kill me

I’m not talking about adultery I’m

talking about something far more sinful

than that I’m talking about things like

doubt and unbelief that go to the core

of the heart I’m talking

about our need of acceptance our need to

be somebody our need all of our human

needs that are never dealt

with and it that javic the Lord made it

clear to me he says David if you’ll have

this night with me and if you will

absolutely lay it

down everything in your life and become

an open book no hidden Gile I’ll open

the Heavens to

you and he’s kept his word oh I’m not

I’m not into some Supernatural

Revelation see and if you really get a

revelation from the lord it’s not new

it’s never

new I’m afraid of new

revelation I last week I got five

letters from people said have you heard

the new doctrine in the country called

uh New Wave

generation that’s the new doctrine

coming down the TN Pike so get

ready there’s one every month somebody

gets a new Fresh Revelation now if you

get the real revelation of an open

Heaven it has to do more with a glorious

old truth of atonement and his

righteousness by faith nothing fancy but

it it’s usually lifegiving it speaks of

life it speaks of Victorious living in

Jesus Christ the power of faith

judgment must begin in the house of the

Lord the whole Church of Jesus Christ is

going to be brought to javic I believe

that I I be with everything in me God is

going to create a crisis in the church

he going to bring every one of us to a

crisis he’s going to make us so empty so

restless so hungry he’s going to bring

Esau with his army this way holy

spirit’s going to come in this way and

we’re going to be cornered

we’re not going to get out until we deal

with

it Hallelujah you say well brother don’t

you have more Temptation oh folks that’s

not I’m not saying that I’ve come to a

sinless

Perfection but I’ve come to the rest

that remains for the children of

God and to the open

Heaven I I don’t want to dome over me

make Austin spark Austin spark speaks of

that

Dome that covers you you can’t see and

the only life you have is within that

Spirit or that religious Dome that you

have built no God wants to just break

open that Dome and open up the glories

of Heaven to our

hearts isn’t it exciting to be around a

person that has been to jaic and you can

see it you know it there’s peace

there’s joy because the joy of the Lord

is your strength if you don’t have any

Joy you don’t have any

strength and I don’t like that phony

piety that goes around with a frown

pretending to be

holy I was at a bible school one time

and a very Pious young man had told the

Lord made a promise that the only way to

become holy he thought was not to talk

for three months so he made a vow not to

speak I went up to him I didn’t know he

made a vow we’re in the lunch I said

what time is it and he

go making all these uh little signs to

me I said what’s wrong with oh he’s he’s

on a spiritual trip you

know spiritual

[Music]

trip before you go to the Judgment seat

go to

jab judge yourself you not be judged

it’s the scripture

and now the question comes and my

closing moment here the question

comes uh will you go

willingly to Jeb say Lord take me to

that place take me down that lonely road

and let me cross that fiord and they’re

all alone let me let me have it out with

you doesn’t take long may take a

night or some it takes an hour somebody

just takes a

decision I’m going to obey God I’m going

to lay it

down some of you sit here now nobody in

the world knows what you’re going

through the battle that you

[Music]

fight I tell you something if we had

named every great preacher you know

every evangelist you know if we had them

all in here all the television

personalities television or not all the

suppose we had 50 of the topy banders

and preachers in the American most

popular from the brn quy who has the

world’s largest church all the way down

the

line and they were up here and really

had an honest moment with you and

[Music]

me I I’ve had I’ve had people say well

brother Dave if you’re an evangelist and

you’re confessing this great need to you

what chance do I have well folus it’s

just being an evangelist or being uh

having an National po that doesn’t make

you superum you still have to go to

javic you still have to face it we’re

all in in this human flesh this treasur

in Earth and

vessels but I’ll tell you this if if if

a man of God who’s had a national Pulpit

has to deal with this like goly you’re

going to deal with it

[Music]

too what is

it that you keep putting

off and deep deep down your heart you

know God’s going to give you a

deadline going to say I’ve been calling

I’ve been

patient but it’s out of my hands now you

either surrender and you

obey or you

pay now he does that in such love he

doesn’t do that with a sword in his hand

he does it with his heart in his

[Music]

hand not through

law through a sense of his divine power

and judgment Lord bring us to this place

called

javic bring us to this third

Crossing this third Crossing

Lord this is The Crossing for those

who’ve already been in the promised land

they’ve already tasted of their

inheritance Lord the rest only comes the

rest that remains for the children of

God Lord this rest that you’re talking

about is freedom from sin’s

power I don’t care what anybody calls it

Lord I see that as clear as anything

I’ve ever seen in my life that the rest

that remains for the children of God is

absolute freedom and deliverance from

the lust and power of this world

Hallelujah Lord you came to set us free

it’s not your plan that we live lives

that are bound you’ve come to give us

freedom sin shall not have dominion over

us now Lord I’m not I’m not going to

call people out and I’m not going to put

a trip on anybody I’m asking you to do

it bring it all down on us Lord until we

get honest

amen
