my message
tonight God’s intention for this
Midnight Hour God’s intention oh King
Jesus we love you be exalted oh
Lord oh we adore your name Jesus touch
us with fire touch us with yourself
we’ve sung be glorified now Lord do it
God burn the word into our hearts my
King Lord
Jesus be exalted tonight we love you
amen God’s intention for this Midnight
Hour do you remember the the hippies and
the flower
children an entire generation of
searching Restless hungry young
people remember when they masked in
Woodstock and huge rock concerts all
over the America and the pervading
questions of of the time where who am I
why am I here what’s the purpose of it
all and when no one could answer them
intelligently many of them dropped out
but you see they were asking questions
that God’s children should have been
asking themselves these were questions
the Holy Spirit was trying to bring to
us but we were so busy so occupied with
ourselves and with health and wealth we
didn’t even hear what the spirit’s
saying so he had to take the question
into the hippies and the dropouts
because we weren’t even in
tune I believe the Holy Spirit of God’s
been trying desperately for 20 years to
get a message into the
church they heard because they were
hungry but now it’s time for the Church
of Jesus Christ to listen to the Holy
Spirit and he that ha ears to hear Let
Him hear what the spirit sayth to the
church here are the questions the spirit
has to get through to you and me tonight
why are you here
what is God’s intention for you in this
crisis hour do you really know what God
expects of you in these last times what
is God’s one great final purpose for our
lives what is his purpose and how sad
today that so few men and women of God
can answer that
question there’s only a Remnant left
today who understand God’s purpose for
his children in the last days a majority
of ministers today are sounding a
trumpet that it’s making uncertain
sounds and the uncertainty in the Pulpit
has spread a cloud of uncertainty in the
congregation and multitudes of
Christians who profess to be serving a
mighty God still live in bondage and
despair there’s absolute ruin in some
Churches today everywhere you look there
is ruin and you know
it there’s an emphasis on certain
doctrinal issues by evangelists and
teachers and it only adds to confusion
and many hungry people today are asking
who is right just what is God’s purpose
for today what is the Lord’s intention
for me and for his church is it Miracles
is it casting out demons discipleship
Church growth we hear so much that is
confusing what is God’s intention what’s
his real purpose for the last
hour and I believe that God has had but
one great intention for his people ever
since the cross it will not change it
has not changed there has been but one
purpose from the beginning there’ll be
but one purpose till Christ returns
God’s intention has to do with
understanding The Mystery of the Gospel
that was first revealed to the Apostle
Paul and it’s a mystery no longer
according to the Apostle Paul said by
revelation God made known to me the
mystery which in other Ages were not
made known under the sons of men as it
is now revealed by the spirit he has
come to make known to all men what is
The Fellowship of the mystery now the
mystery revealed and this is what you’ve
got to understand we’ve got to
understand it before we go any further
the mystery that has been revealed
through Paul and to the Church of all
ages Christ’s body is still here on
Earth Christ body is still here on Earth
the head is in heaven which is Christ
but the rest of his body is right here
on Earth we who love Jesus and serve him
represent his visible parts
that which men can see of Christ on
Earth for we are members of his body of
his flesh and of his bones and he is the
head of the body the church now God’s
full intention for this last hour can be
summed up in one sentence listen to it
since we are Christ’s body on Earth
God’s intention is that every member
become a true expression of who Jesus is
that you that I that everyone that calls
thems by his name become a true holy
expression of who Christ is on this
earth now God intends that we express a
complete full Christ so that any sinner
on the face of the Earth can look at you
and can look at me and see Christ as
surely as he were walking on the Flesh
on this Earth in the
flesh the world the sinner has to be
able to look at you and see the same
fullness the same intention of pleasing
God God as they saw in Christ as he
walked in the flesh because we are his
flesh and his bone we are the visible
Body of Christ on Earth the mystery
unfolded is that Christ’s body is still
visible here on Earth and it’s you and
it’s
me we are to appropriate so much of him
of his glory his completeness the world
will see us see in us the hope the
answers to all their needs and if you
and I cannot live out without Christ we
have no right to preach
him if we are not a true expression of
He Is We have no right to talk of him
it’s not enough either to just know
Christ we’ve got to be a full expression
of who he is you have got to look at
everything in your life I’ve got to look
at everything in my life in this light
does this
represent this what I’m doing this what
I am does this represent who Christ is
is this what I want the sinner to see
and know of
him would Christ in his physical
body walk into an x-rated
theater would he linger around a
pornography counter would Christ abuse
his body in any way would he indulge in
adultery and fornication of drinking
would he cheat would he tell dirty dirty
stories would he
lie would he live a lie and then attempt
to preach the
truth would he tried to spread the light
when there was a pocket of darkness in
his own
life would he tell others not to commit
adulterine then in secret do it
himself you see we’ve got to keep before
our eyes this one great intention of God
that his body would always reflect who
Christ
is now if you set your heart tonight on
becoming a true expression to the world
of who Jes Jesus is you’re going to stir
the very Wrath of
hell you can build all the colleges you
want you can raise up orphanages and
Retreats and build churches all to God’s
glory quote
unquote you can go out and evangelize
and you can give your body to be burned
at the
stake because you see the devil will not
trouble a miracle worker or a
moralist but Satan will not leave you
alone once you set your heart on truly
expressing the Holiness and the
righteous of Jesus Christ to the world
and showing the World by your life who
he
is you see when you discover God’s
intention and you begin to know who you
are his
body and when you cut into the center of
that
purpose when you know you’re called to
be as he was on the
earth you’re going to be the direct
Target of everything in
hell would you build an or
AG over in Africa would you go to the
Amazon to preach the
gospel would you go to the American
slums and give your body to human
need would you go to college campuses in
Iran and preach for Christ and sell out
to God that’s very commendable that’s
fine but it’s not God’s first intention
for you in this last
day because if you are not a true
Express of who Jesus
is everything you do is human it’s works
and it’ll burn it to
judgment because the scripture said in
the last days many will come saying Lord
Lord did we not cast out Devils did we
not heal the sick did we not do many
things in your name and he would say
depart from me you work I never knew you
and conversely you never knew
me and when Peter stood before Christ
and said I don’t know the man he wasn’t
lying he spent three years with him and
never knew him
who is the one who has Vision we talk
about a man or woman having Vision a man
of God who has vision is that the one
who builds a great church who has the
big budget who speaks to the largest TV
crowds no the one with vision is the one
who reflects the glory of Christ who’s
had a vision Eternal Vision of who he is
in Christ sitting in Heavenly places and
who was able to reflect the glory of
Jesus
because God will not sponsor anything
that does not reflect
Christ whatever is born out of
relationship to Jesus is the only thing
the only thing that he sponsors is that
which comes out of the mind of
Christ and I don’t see much in America
today that is a true expression of who
Jesus is there’s so much of ego bragging
competition struggle for recognition but
so little of Jesus Christ I switch on
the television set and I watch the
Christian Gospel programming and my
heart grows sick the pitiful appeals
from money the spectacular expensive
sets the endless small talk and I cry
and I say oh God is this the best
expression to the world we can give of
who Jesus
is raising money for a tutu
train the time is not far off when
things are going to to start unraveling
and coming
apart the Daily News will become
terribly frightening the economy will
yet go into complete disarray you watch
the end of this year and see what
happens the nations of this world are
going to tremble with fear we’re about
to enter the most ominous times in
history and everything the scripture
says that can be shaken is going to be
shaken and what’s going to count then
when everything around you is crumbling
you’re going to see men of God stand in
the midst of their projects and weep and
how massive building programs are going
to sit idle cobwebs and bats will fill
the temples and the monuments of
self-achievement are going to haunt the
people who built
them those who chased after health and
wealth and prosperity are going to be
empty and desolate because they have no
inner strength to face the horrors that
are falling they have no history with
God those who took the things of God so
lightly who never broke away from the
world in its Spirit those who are
unwilling will to forsake the old world
in their old ways they’re going to have
nothing to see them through the final
days there’s only going to be one thing
that matters then do I know Jesus Christ
intimately am I an expression of him on
this in this dark hour will I be one of
the few who will witness to this crazy
world that Christ is above it
all will I be his Shining Light when it
gets dark and
cold
now if there’s something in your heart
that responds to this call to be an
expression of
him and you’re yearning to be that
expression there are two things that
you’ve got to understand tonight one
part is Christ and one part is yours and
mine want to discuss them with
you first of all this is his part we
cannot be an expression of Christ until
we’re convinced that everything is clear
between God and
us you you’ve got to once and for all
understand what Christ did at the
cross and this generation lacks the
Theology of the cross of Jesus Christ
and its Victory the entire charismatic
movement the upper room is overshadowed
the cross we’ve developed a christless
Pentecost without a Theology of the
Cross and its
Victory we don’t even know that God’s
heart was satis IED by what Jesus did by
what he did because at the cross Jesus
Christ forever took away the thing that
offended God’s eye about
me he once and for all satisfied the
heart of God and if God is satisfied
with me I’m going to be
satisfied he took away that which was in
the eye of God giving us a right from
that day on to be in his presence and to
be accepted before God there is there is
not a single thing that stands between
the child of God and the father not one
thing now that stands
between you don’t dare go another step
tonight until you fully understand the
efficacy of the cross of Jesus Christ
blood that you and I are fully
pardoned God does not have to be
appeased he’s been fully appeased if
that’s the word you want to use he’s
been fully
satisfied the cross
get it the cross has cleared us before
the eyes of God we are
clear you may forget that but God
doesn’t the veil was torn that allowed
us entrance it was God saying you’re now
accepted come boldy to my Throne you are
now mine in the Beloved you’re accepted
in the
Beloved you and I can’t even pay for our
sins because we don’t even know the
extent of the offense we didn’t know
what the offense was we don’t even know
how we grieve God how can you pay for an
offense you don’t even know the extent
of Jesus Christ knew the extent of the
distance between us and the cross and
God and he closed the distance he
brought us to the heart of God and you
don’t know anything about the heart of
God until you look at the prodal son and
you see it not as a story of a sinner
coming back but it’s the story of the
joy of the heart of God of those who
come to him before he even comes he’s
there rejoicing he brings him into the
house and puts a ring on his finger and
a robe on his back and he accepts him
and he has a feast that story is the
rejoicing of the heart of God it’s a
reflection what is in the heart of God
the love for his children the love for
those that are under the blood of Jesus
Christ we have lacked the knowledge of
the security that we have under the
blood this is one issue that’s got to be
settled once and for
all you cannot allow a cloud between you
and the father
but you say David my heart condemns me I
still sin I’ve done things I believe
have grieved the Holy Spirit I’m
unworthy there are times that heaven
seem
brass but the Bible said if our heart
condemn us God is greater than our heart
all you have to do is repudiate your sin
to hate it confess it you’ve got to
believe that in him forgiveness of sins
is preached do you preach that and then
not believe it for yourself that him
forgiveness of sins is preached
Hallelujah here’s where most Christians
fail especially young people they live
with unnecessary fear and bondage
because they don’t understand the glory
in the victory of the
Cross they are clear in God’s eyes but
they don’t know it God is completely
satisfied totally Satisfied by the
sacrifice of Jesus Christ and the way
has been cleared into God’s presence
there’s nothing blocking access now
except our fears and our lack of
knowledge and won’t it be ashamed that
so many of us stand before God and we
had so much that was offered and we
didn’t enter in because of our lack of
knowledge we couldn’t believe it was so
glorious it was so beautiful that God
said I will not impute your sins against
you they forgiven they’re under the
blood and it was too good to
believe and we under constant fear and
condemnation getting saved and resaved
and filled and refilled and never
understanding the glory of the cross
that God has been
satisfied
Hallelujah when the veil was ran into
two it was not just that God allowed us
to come in but God could go out he goes
out immediately to a sinner called Saul
the veil was read not to just let us in
but to let the of God flow and he goes
to Saul immediately say Saul
Saul come
home
hallelujah how
incredible we offend God we create this
distance between us and him yet he is so
anxious to clear Us in his own eyes he
sends his own son provides his own
sacrifice to clear the way back he
judges sin this offense is removed and
now God says their sins and their
iniquities will I remember no
more you can’t face the world and tell
in that Glory until you have that peace
and the glory of sins forgiven that God
is not trying to impute sins to you now
he’s trying to reconcile you to
himself he didn’t have to be reconciled
he was never not reconciled to the world
he is always been reconciled to the
world but now he was out to have us
reconciled to
him
he himself removed the
distance
hallelujah what is there in us that
attracted the grace of Jesus Christ was
there some marvelous Grace in US was
there some beauty or goodness or
strength was there some kind of
potential in us that attracted the grace
of God through Christ no it’s misery
that attracts Grace it’s need that
attracts Grace you find it all through
the New Testament the our greatest
attraction to God is that we are poor
helpless creatures in need What
attracted Jesus to the syap phenician
woman What attracted him to the Blind
and to the infirm and the widows and the
fatherless what they all had in common
was
helplessness what is it that
attracts the grace of God in Me in you
tonight it’s our helpless condition
exemplified by the paui
man and they came unto Jesus bringing
one sick of the
paly and take a good look at that man
because he represents the helplessness
of this generation the helplessness of
you and me having not one iot of
strength or power this paid man can’t
even bring himself to
Christ you look at him trembling and
weak and help us he’s a prisoner to his
bed that’s you and me before we
understand this concept of Deliverance
through the
cross Jesus stands before this helpless
man that’s let down through the roof to
him and he didn’t even mention his
physical
condition first the Lord was going to
clear him before God’s
eyes he would clear him before he heals
him when Jesus saw their faith he said
under the sick of the apy son thy sins
be forgiven thee you have to be accepted
before you’re
delivered accepted before you’re healed
and you have to know that you’re
accepted before you step
out know what a beautiful picture of the
love of God in Jesus
Christ he’s a helpless man he’s too
overwhelmed by his infirmity to even
whimper he can’t even muster a
confession he has nothing to offer
Christ he’s too weak
you see the scripture said it’s not of
Works lest any man should boast but we
are his workmanship created in Christ
Jesus it’s not something that you and I
have done it’s something that he is
doing hallelujah we’re his
workmanship the Pharisees with all their
good works and their boasting never did
attract the grace of God it was JB Stony
who
said The more parade the less depth the
more parade look at the Ministries in
America today and judge it that way the
more show the more parade the less
depth but see how the weakness of man
attracts his sympathy and his grace you
show me a person you show me a child of
God struggling with some hated besetting
sin someone who’s crushed beneath a load
of guilt and
despair hating the sin but feeling
helpless and weak now I’ll show you one
who is the object of the abundance Grace
of Jesus
Christ because where sin abounds Grace
does much more
abound are you
struggling oh you’re an objec of his
grace it’s our helplessness our need
that attracts
Grace
Hallelujah Satan will come against you
in this struggle it suggest to you that
God is mad at you that you have no right
into God’s presence he’ll throw Old
Testament concept at you that have no
right to be even thought of under the
blood he’ll say that wrath and judgments
at the door and I want you to know those
are lies all
lies all you have to do is look up to
the Lamb of God and in your utter
helplessness you hear these comforting
words son daughter thy sins be forgiven
thee
Hallelujah then you stand by faith on
the finished work of the cross from that
moment on let me show you something now
through faith in Jesus Christ your sins
are under the blood you live on the
other side of the veil you’re seated
with Christ in Heavenly places you’re
accepted into beloved you are one with
Christ and the father God’s Wrath
against your sin has been satisfied you
have been given an inheritance you are
now more than a conqueror you are now
living and moving in the spirit there’s
a bloodline between you and Satan your
accuser has been cast down and put to
open shame you are filled with the
fullness of Christ you have a power in
you to meet everything having to do with
life and godliness you’re the apple of
his eye and the hollow of his hands
purged from your iniquity renewed in
your mind you’re reconciled Justified
Sanctified made ready as a bride
translated out of the kingdom of
darkness into the Kingdom of Light
you’re made an heir of all things in
Christ Jesus you are no longer under
condemnation because there’s no
condemnation in Christ Jesus Jesus
Christ abides in you he reveals himself
to you and no height no depth no
principality no power not man not Angels
not things on Earth not things in heaven
can separate you from the love of God in
Christ Jesus you are feeding on Christ
The Man From Heaven you’re living in
Zion In God’s Presence he is your friend
he’s your priest he’s your Advocate he’s
your Lord he’s your guide what more do
you
want and do you believe those things are
true do you believe he said
it do you believe that God made these
promises to weak and helpless creatures
such as we you believe this Treasures in
Earth and
vessels are you forgiven are you clear
in the sight of God have you accepted
your
acceptance do you believe why you’re
sitting here right now that you’re fully
accepted in the sight of God and nothing
stands between you and him and that you
have an open heaven and you can pray for
a spit of Revelation and knowledge in
the things of
Christ yes
and you can become a true expression of
who Jesus is only as you take your place
at the right hand of the father truly
accepted all the hindrances removed not
by you not by anything you can do not by
promises you make not by what you feel
but what Christ has
done there’s a four-letter word the
church has never understood it’s called
done d o n
e do you know that you can love Jesus
and still be
miserable because you don’t know know
you’re
accepted the most miserable people I
meet in America those who truly love the
Lord with all their heart but they’ve
never entered into their acceptance
before Christ they’ve never entered in
the glory of the cross of Jesus
Christ I don’t want to be just forgiven
I Want to Be
Free
Hallelujah secondly and this is your
part and mine he’s done his part it’s
done it’s finished we accept it in his
sight and oh that’s the blessedness that
David was talking about of the man who
knows that God is no longer imputing
sins against
him oh
Hallelujah here’s your
part to become a true expression of
Christ you must take up your bed and
walk that’s our part the psed man was
forgiven and cleared in God’s eye but he
was still a
prisoner he was relieved of all of his
sins but he was still impotent
he knew Christ as relief but he didn’t
know him as resource now come on now
this is where the majority of the Church
of Jesus Christ is and this is where the
entire chmatic movement seems to be
right now they know Christ is relief my
sins are forgiven they’re under the
blood but they’ve never known his
resource they’ve never been able to take
up the bed and walk it’s not enough to
be a forgiven or a relieved
prisoner there something you’ve got to
do
do Jesus said is it easier to say to the
sick of the paly thy sins be forgiven
thee or to say arise and take up thy bed
and walk but that ye may know that the
son of man ha power on Earth to forgive
sins I say unto thee the sick of the py
arise and take up thy bed and go thy way
into thine house in other words said go
home and practice it in your home first
go to your house that man gets up out of
that bed but he did not get up out of
that bed in his own
strength Christ imparted a supernatural
strength to him because without Christ
we can do
nothing we know it is the power of the
Holy
Spirit and Christ was actually saying to
this man and he says it to you and me
I’m going to make you an example of my
power over
sin you’re going to become strongest
where you were weakest the thing that
made you a prisoner you will pick up and
carry you will overcome the very thing
that held you down you’ll become
strongest at your weakest
point a spiritual
who has a controversy at the
center who still has a cloud between him
and God who still lives with secret sin
cannot be a full expression of who
Christ
is now every one of us in this room
tonight knows what our weakness is
you know what the weakness is by the way
God deals with you and by what convicts
you we know where we’re most
vulnerable and Satan will come to you
and suggest that one day that weakness
will overcome you and cast you down and
you’ll lose everything but that’s not
so by his glorious power God can make us
strongest at our weakest Point that’s
what the scripture means by his strength
being made perfect in our
weakness the man that was told to steal
no more was made strong in that weakest
point because God said I’m not going to
make him not steal anymore I’m going to
give him a job so that he can become a
giver I’m going to take a I’m going to
take this taker I’m going to make him a
giver he’s going to become strongest at
his weakest point he once stole and now
he’s going to work and he’s going to
give God will take you at your weakest
point to show his glory to the whole
world and’ll make you strong as at that
point and that should be your desire and
your faith in God’s power to accomplish
that in your
life you say I want to be expression of
Christ but there’s something hindering
you now you know it the spirit’s
convicted you would be setting sin a
weakness and ENT controversy that’s
still
unresolved but that hindrance you know
must go the prison doors have been open
you’ve been forgiven but you can’t stay
in that bed you can’t go about as a
you’ve been in that bed long
enough you’ve been psed by sin long
enough what in the world will the Lord
do to get us out of that Dominion of sin
how does he get us out of
bed he said he would give us a power to
overcome and we talk about this power as
being something mysterious but it’s
really not now listen closely please let
me try to explain as I see it you and I
are engrafted as a Vine into Christ
isn’t that correct we’re as a branch
into this Vine who Jesus Christ all
right the very same power that enabled
him to fulfill the will of God on Earth
is the very same power that enables us
the very same spirit that quickened him
and raised him is not another spirit
that comes on us it’s the selfs Same
Spirit could you imagine the Holy Spirit
going into that tomb and shaking
trembling that body and bringing life
that’s the same same spirit that raises
and quickens
us the same place that Christ is seated
at the right hand of the father is where
you and I
seated the scripture says no man has
seen God and lived and Isaiah said when
King Uzziah died I saw the Lord but
that’s the night Isaiah died the message
is see God and
die and when you really see him you’ll
die to this world you become detached
and the more attached you become to
Jesus Christ the less attached you are
to this world you become detached to
material things when you become totally
attached to the throne
how do we get how do we know our sins
are forgiven you stand here tonight and
you say we believe the blood of Jesus
Christ cleans of how do you know that
it’s by faith you take that by faith and
when you take it by faith there’s a
witness and you go your way with peace
of mind how do you know you have
power it is not by some outward
expression this is by faith and faith
alone you’ve got to believe that what
God Said is true that when the spirit of
God came on you he gave you power over
all the forces of Hell here’s one
preacher who will never ever accept the
fact that a Christian can be possessed
of a demon how in the world can you live
Beyond the Veil and a demon cross the
veil how can you be in the Hall of his
hand and a demon sit in the Hall of his
hand how can you be seated in Heavenly
places in Christ Jesus and have a devil
sitting behind you behind you how can
the devil cross a bloodline no no no no
no in a thousand years no no
no no no don’t ever let that come to you
oh I reject that in the name of the Lord
there is no scripture for that in the
Bible there’s no scripture I have the
anointing on this the blood of Jesus
Christ Satan cometh Jesus said has
nothing in me unless you can say that
look the world in the eye never be
afraid of the devil again in your life
and you’re not to be focused on your
sins anymore you’re to be focused on the
right hand of the father where you’re
seated in Jesus
Christ not focused on sins but the Coss
cross and the Victory one there
[Music]
Hallelujah this palsied man gets up and
walks and Carries his bed that’s a type
of the believer who’s in Mastery over
his sin and what an expression of Christ
this man was what hope he gave to all
the sick and the affirm and those who
were burdened by sin didn’t he give hope
to everybody that saw that PID man work
car in his bed walk ain’t that what
God’s after
today he’s not seeking for anything else
but Overcomers now listen I’m
convinced that the Lord Jesus is looking
for people who will be such an
expression of himself that they can show
an evil generation how Christ completely
delivers from the Dominion of
sin that Sinners could see Christians
who live above the lust and plages of
this world they could see men who love
their wives and their faithful wives who
don’t cheat but they’re good Mothers and
keepers at home young people and
students who practice Purity and
separation from everything that
defiles let me tell you how I feel we’ve
had enough colleges named after famous
evangelist we’ve had enough fastest
growing churches in the world we’ve had
enough busy Christians doing exploits
we’ve had enough gospel radio and
television because if radio and
television was ever going to do we’ve
had 50 years to do it and with all that
they’re less people knowing Christ and
serving in fullness than any other
generation
we’ve had enough of Crusades and
concerts and outreaches we’ve had enough
about abortion and moralism we’ve had
more than enough of plans and projects
and programs and seminars and books and
records and tapes magazines and
newsletters but we don’t have enough
Christians who truly Express who the
Lord is there are very few that can that
Sinners can point to and say there goes
a Christian who really expresses to me
who Jesus is if I ever come to Christ
that’s the kind I want to be there goes
one who has nothing to sell nothing to
promote nothing to prove but Christ
risen and
glorified there stands a man there
stands a woman who shines with the
beauty and simplicity of Jesus Christ as
Lord there’s one who has reality there’s
something in him and her I can’t deny
that’s
Christ and shouldn’t that
be the goal of your life and M if that’s
God’s intention shouldn’t that be ours
that we would represent Christ in his
fullness and completeness and when I
stand before the Judgment seat of Christ
I’m going to be judged on one Criterion
Alone David how did you express me to
the
world what did your life say to the
world about who Christ was did you show
forth Christ through defilement and
compromise and
shamefulness could the Sinners see an
overcoming Christ in you or did you show
them nothing of the fullness the joy and
the Victory of Christ the Lord you’re
going to be judged on how you’ve
represented him what kind of an
expression you’ve been of Jesus Christ
the
Lord that’s
awesome you going to stand before the
Lord and brag how many Souls You’ve Won
Lord I I got 200 Souls last year you
going to stand before him pastor and
tell him that you built one of the
biggest churches in America you going to
tell them how many stations you’re
on and I’m not putting that
down you going to tell them what kind of
crusade you
started what kind of moral victories
You’ve Won how many people youve
preached to you see God doesn’t care so
much about what you’ve done but what
you’ve become that’s the greatest thing
Lord’s ever show me he’s not cons he’s
not interested in my winning all the
world for him but winning All of Me for
him
H have you ever has there ever been a
day when there have been more work
more projects more programs and so few
living in Union with Christ is
today before I close tonight I want to
list to you for you some of the things
that will help you become the full
expression of Jesus
Christ I’m going to list about 11 don’t
write them down please because I want
your good ear and I want your eye write
this way I’m going to go too fast for
you to write first of of all listen
close and give me your good ear now
Christ shed blood washes you completely
before the eyes of a holy God do you
believe
that Christ’s blood washes you
completely before the eyes of a holy God
number two everything that could rise up
against you and condemn you has been
removed do you believe that what’s it
been removed by the sacrifice of Jesus
third God has never lost his
satisfaction in what Christ did and he’s
never going to lose his satisfaction in
me because I’m in him do you believe
that do you think God can ever be
dissatisfied with what Christ has done
then how can he ever be dissatisfied
with me because I’m in him for through
his cross Christ has removed everything
that stood between me and him and
nothing can ever separate me again
nothing will ever separate us from the
love of
God do you believe that here it is
number five his divine power has given
to you he’s given you his divine power
more surely than he gave it to the Man
with apy
he gave his power Christ’s power was
given to the man of the PA he’s given
that to you if by faith you would accept
it six God has seen your weakness your
helplessness and he says to you I’m
going to snap it I’m going to crush it
I’m going to overpower it I’m going to
do everything necessary to put away and
make you Superior to one thing that
crippled you the bed you laid in you’re
going to carry and I’ve got what I call
a cookie jar theology what does the
parent do when the little child keeps
stealing the cookies and gets spanked
and spanked little child still climbs up
what’s the parent do he puts the cookie
jar Out Of
Reach simple as that there Comes A Time
you say I can’t handle my sin Lord and
you love them your heart goes out to him
Lord says I’m going to take it I’m going
to crush it I’m going to put the cookie
jar Out Of Reach I’m going to take that
thing out of your life complete I’m
going to put a million miles away from
I’m make you strong at this point right
here now not that you’ll still be
struggling for the cookies I’m going to
move the cookie jar when I move the
cookie jar I’m going to take the desire
for cook cookies away from you God’s
going to make us stronger at that point
Hallelujah well you still here number
seven his strength is going to be
applied where you are the weakest you’ll
become strong at that point number eight
Christ’s one great desire for you is
that he himself will shine through you
making you a beautiful expression to the
whole world of who he is God will not
support anything that is not an
expression of him
anymore number nine we must live now
totally dependent on Christ you remember
the Good
Samaritan what did he do he put the
wounded man on his own beast and that’s
the hardest thing God has to do get us
off our legs onto the Beast we like the
oil and wine poured in but we want to
walk our own way to the
end get it he put him on his own Beast
you’re going to walk on his back he
going to carry you you’re not going to
walk on your own legs and the most
important thing God ever taught me to
get me off my own
legs number 10 there’s only one choice
you and I have a not
two and that choice is communion above
service there was a time I got all my
delight out of service now I get it of
communion and the man who Delights in
service will work and work until he gets
burned out and the God will create a
crisis in his life or allow one to be
created that information won’t get him
out of he has to have revelation God in
his love and the P the young man who
preached last night brought that out so
clearly he does it in so many lives
sometimes after 20 30 years some of you
having it done to you right now do you
remember remember what I said there’s
only one choice there are not two
there’s only one there’s no alternative
it’s communion and communion is simply a
common mind with the Lord a common mind
with the Lord that you are seated in
Heavenly places and it’s there that you
get the mind of Christ then you come
down to this world and you Minister as
coming from a Heavenly place you come as
a Heavenly Man or a Heavenly woman
detached from this world totally in the
mind of Christ so that what you do God
can
support the Bible said if if it it said
Mary chose the better part that would
mean that there were two parts uh better
and best no the Bible says Mary ha
chosen the good part there’s only one
that’s the good that’s the community
no other way there were no two it
doesn’t say she chose the better part
she chose the good part the only part
communion number 11 and here’s the most
important if we are his
bride and he’s coming back soon
shouldn’t the greatest object of Our
Lives be
affection are you in the
bride is the bridegroom coming
back then what should should be our
object power alone or should it be love
affection affection if you love me
you’ll obey
me I want to close with
a personal word I don’t like to do this
often
but I want to show
you something about his
presence I tell you something I started
preaching when I was 14
and about three years ago God shut me
down really shut me
down and it’s it’s almost shameful that
a man after 25 years of preaching has to
say to
you you
know I already didn’t know him like I
should I hadn’t seen him at the right
hand of the father I haven’t I wasn’t
holding the head as I should I didn’t
know I was the body
part of the body I didn’t know the
responsibility I had to be an expression
of Christ I thought I I just stayed busy
and worked for him witnessed that was
it the service comes out of communion
the service comes out of knowing him
that way there’s no sweat because in the
holy of holies the priest couldn’t
wear anything that cause sweat and the
Lord will not allow sweat in his
presence and God had to shut me down to
wipe all the sweat off my
brow and
about uh a year ago I started having the
Holy Spirit lift me out of myself into
the
heavenlies on one occasion for 5
hours a little prayer house to shut in
with God he took me out in the spirit in
a worship stream of
worship and I was racing through the
universe past the cosmos and the Stars
and I turned to see the Earth and was
just a speck in
space and I could feel the emptiness and
the coldness because I was racing toward
the Judgment seat and the Bible said on
the Judgment Day there’ll be no place to
stand and I had no place to stand and
that’s going to be the the most awesome
thing that you have no ground to stand
on except what you know of him and the
intimacy you have with him you’d better
know him when you go when that door
opens you’re not to be afraid to the
Judgment seat of Christ that’s the
moment of Glory when he puts his arms
around you I I’ve over the lifetime I’ve
heard preachers so condemn me about the
Judgment seat of Christ oh no no when
you’re under the blood and intimate with
him shouldn’t that be the time if you
know him that you walk in he puts his
arms around you saying well done good
and faithful servant the only works that
are going to burn we’re all going to
have some works that burn and that was
trying to be righteous through our own
works that’s what he’s talking about but
that’s a time of rejoicing and I was
racing past the stars and the Earth was
just a Speck in space and I said oh God
that’s everything that I hold dear is on
that Speck and soon is going to vanish
it’s just a speck in space all my
Ministry all that I’ve done over the
years my family everything I’ve held
dear every material thing it’s there and
sudden it was Vanishing it’s all going
to be gone and I’m going to be standing
before
Jesus and youd better know him you’d
better be in Union with him because
there’s nothing left
nothing no I began to my heart began to
rejoice and I began to scream oh God I
have nothing I’ve done nothing oh thank
God I know you oh if I hadn’t known him
there would have been an emptiness in my
heart sudden I was detached split free
from the world and in his
presence and then a few months ago I was
in Dallas preaching I just finished and
I just raised my hands and there was a
beautiful spirit of worship and I
remember just saying Glory honor and
praise glory and honor and praise glory
and honor and
praise and suddenly I was caught in a
stream because you see praise is an
eternal stream and when you worship and
pray in the spirit you’re caught in the
same stream you’re in that stream of
Abraham Isaac and Jacob with Peter and
Paul and the apostles in the early
church the day of Pentecost it’s one
endless stream it’s one circle of praise
and you’re caught up in that Circle
you’re one there’s only one Hallelujah
last through eternity you’re caught in
that one great Hallelujah of praise and
I was Swept Away In The Stream and I
felt my body just leaving the Earth and
I felt myself growing closer and closer
and suddenly I saw a light break through
and I passed out I just went out I don’t
know how long is up maybe 20 minutes or
so I was in the presence of Jesus
Christ most awesome thing I’ve ever
experienced in my
life you know I’ve heard people say will
we know each other in heaven that’s a
mute question doesn’t mean a thing
because you won’t want to know anybody
else you won’t want to see streets of
gold you won’t want to see Mansions you
won’t even want to talk to Peter or Paul
because in his presence is fullness joy
and Pleasures for ever more and Christ
was so all-encompassing he was So
Glorious he so filled the heart with
ecstasy I didn’t want to see family I
wasn’t thinking of wife or unsaved loved
ones my father who’ passed on Christ was
everything he filled my mind and you
know when you get to heaven it’s not an
even static kind of ecstasy it’s an Ever
expanded Consciousness because when I
got there into his presence I didn’t see
his face but the light I became luminous
his light went right through me and his
light went through me I became one with
that light I was in the very presence of
the light of the universe Jesus Christ
the son of God no fear and the glory and
the Ecstasy got Higher and Higher and
Higher and you understand that all three
eternity it’s not static it’s not level
but the glory of Christ and the
revelation of who he is is ever
expanding he’s going to expand our
Consciousness and all through eternity
we’re going to learn more and more of
his glory and his grace and we’re going
to get more Glory as the as the eons go
by Hallelujah the Ecstasy and the glory
of being in his presence nothing else
mattered Christ was all in it
all and if you see that
you’re in heaven long before you go
there and if you don’t have heaven in
you now you can forget it you the Saints
used to call Little glory to go to glory
in I’m in heaven now I’m in a Heavenly
place in Christ Jesus by faith I’m
seated at the right hand of the
father Hallelujah and the words I
administer to you now they are life
there are life because they are his
words from Christ himself because he’s
said he is all glory he is all honor he
is all praise and when you are there
nothing else matters shouldn’t that be
the way it is now shouldn’t he be all
Supreme shouldn’t he be the center of
our attraction should we not our hearts
be going out to
him shouldn’t we hear the Cry of the
Bride come come come the bride and the
spirit say come shouldn’t our hearts be
going out to him should we be like Peter
jumping out of the boat wanting to be
with him shouldn’t we be like Mary whose
heart couldn’t be consoled until she had
her heart satisfied that he was
alive if you really love him your
heart’s not going to be satisfied until
you know him in his
fullness
Hallelujah you know I I’ve got to just
say this before I
close if you’re his bride Christ has to
be able to say to you there’s my
friend there’s my friend that’s my bride
there’s my affection the heart of her
husband that safely trust in her the
scripture said he’s the husband we’re
the bride and the Heart of her husband
does safely trust in her I’m going to
ask you
that does he safely trust in you can he
safely trust you that you’re an
expression of who he is now in your
ministry and what you’re
doing there’s the flesh still in
control I don’t know where he’s taken me
yet but I don’t want anything to do
anymore with a secular ecclesiastical
world don’t anything to do with it
anymore I want to see the new man risen
I want to be in that
man God only sees one man the church
church is one man and that’s Christ and
we in
him and I’m
hungry and I told the Lord recently if
you think Jacob wrestled you haven’t
seen anything
yet and the one thing we’re not giving
him is
time how sad to preach in some of the
biggest churches in America and have a
pastor tell you he hasn’t prayed in one
year to see men building build ings and
body counts and heego tripping and it
sounds like we don’t even know him
anymore we don’t know
him and we’re so
blind so
blind my people have ears but they don’t
hear they have eyes but they don’t see
and their hearts are cold you know there
were some things that Jesus said even to
the disciples there’s some things I’d
like to show you but you can’t you can’t
accept it you can’t understand you can’t
comprehend and I think it’d be as shame
that we’d stand before God you’d say
there’s some things I wanted to show you
but you weren’t
ready I don’t want
that I don’t even want
power I want his
love and I want
him if I never see him do another thing
if he never answers another prayer I
don’t care I know he does the miraculous
and I believe we need
that oh yes I
do and I believe he’ll answer prayer but
that’s not why I love
him I love him because I’ve seen him and
I’ve tasted of him I just buried my
business manager 33 years
old cancer of the
liver and the last two weeks before he
died I was with him every day and all we
did was talk about the glory and Christ
was revealing himself and that young man
at 33 saw more of Jesus than any
evangelist I know in America and he had
preachers coming in and say where’s your
faith you know where’s the sin in your
life and all that
garbage and he said to me David if God
heals me now I’ll be
disappointed because I’ve touched the
glory and I want to go to
it when you’ve seen the glory the world
doesn’t hold attraction anymore and if
you don’t have what Paul right now had a
desire to be with him rather than be
here your number one desire should be
with him you know there’s a there’s an
old cliche so Heavenly you’re no earthly
good well there’s no such thing the man
who said that was backsliding there’s no
such thing as being so Heavenly you know
Earthly good there is such a thing as
being so Earthly you know Heavenly
good no no
no I wonder tonight how many of you have
hunger
you sit here tonight do you feel what I
feel Lord I’ve known you all these years
but I really haven’t known you like I
want to Lord I’ve been right on the edge
but I know there’s more I’m not
satisfied Lord the world can go this way
but I’m going to your heart let them
have the buildings let them have the
projects let them have the pro I’m going
to you I want your heart I want a
revelation I want to know
you
Hallelujah
[Music]
does your heart
burn before I’m finished I’m going to
ask you to do one thing Holy Spirits lay
this on my heart I want everybody that
is under the blood of Christ to enter
into the joy of acceptance to fully
accept your acceptance before him to
come into the blessedness of sins
forgiven that you have not focus on your
sins now but on The Heavenly Man in
Christ Jesus I want you toer into that
now all some of you have lacked the
victory of that you haven’t been an
expression of the acceptance and the
glory of the Cross God wants that
tonight God want you to enter the glory
of your acceptance that you’re totally
accepted in the Beloved that’s in Christ
there’s a fountain filled with blood
drawn from emanuel’s veins Sinners PLS

and stain the guilt and the stain is
gone we’re in a Heavenly place in Christ
Jesus The Fountains filled with blood

joy of the Lord the joy of the Lord is
your strength if you really believe that
you have no guilt and stain and that
