Welcome to our visitors delighted to
have you here tonight trust you have
experienced the presence of the Lord
already and now we open our hearts to
receive the word of the
Lord this
church uh knows and perhaps some of your
visiting may know that Lord put on our
heart to warn Christians in America
about a coming economic Holocaust the
book was entitled America’s last call
and
uh in the first 40 days over 200,000
books were ordered uh going toward a
quarter million and uh we’re getting
back letters now from all over the
United States from businessmen from
common people from people everywhere and
I think uh and my wife reads hundreds
and hundreds of these letters I think
we’ve only received one
negative uh most of them all of the
people that write say we sense the same
thing
coming and my wife pulled out some of
these letters to give me a sense of what
people are
saying and I’m ex I’m probably more
excited about the book I’m writing now I
think this is my 38th book or so I don’t
know the number but this particular book
has me very excited it’s entitled The
preservation of Zion the subtitle is
God’s plan to keep his people during the
coming
depression and I’m very excited about
because the Lord’s showing me some
wonderful things about what he has in
store for his church and for his people
that all that he’s doing all that he’s
going to do in this world in the way of
judgment all he’s doing to the United
States in the way of judgment has to do
with purging his church getting his
church and his bride
ready because we are the holy Zion uh
the New Jerusalem the city coming down
out of God out of heaven and everything
God does he does in regards to his
church he he has a controversy
concerning Zion we preached that and
this is about the fourth or fifth
message along that line and this evening
I want to talk to you about how to
prosper in hard times how to prosper in
hard times now if you’re part of Time
Square Church you know already where I’m
going with
this uh
so I’m not
backsliding on the Prosperity Gospel
believe
me but folks this is not a trick this is
not a trick uh
statement there will be a people in the
hardest of time it doesn’t matter if
there’s a total collapse of the economy
doesn’t matter if there’s going to be
the worst depression in the history of
the nation of The World God is going to
have a people who survive not only
survive but prosper in a way that
represents true Prosperity very real
Prosperity I told Pastor Carter before I
came out I said boy this this church has
to you’re kind of U testing Proving
Ground
amen I I told Brother Carter I’ve never
acknowledged till this past year because
the Lord had me acknowledged I’m not a
prophet but he has made one of his
Watchmen his many Watchmen and I I’ve
had to acknowledge that before the Lord
he’s called me to speak to the
Evangelical Church World about what is
coming because very few pastors are
warning their people I was in Dallas
Texas a few uh weeks ago by way my son
Gary Greg’s here Gary was this morning
Greg God bless you nice to have you and
your family with us
here and uh I I preached this message to
hundreds of pastors we’ve had four
letters now and one this past week from
from pastors who were in that meeting
and they said uh Brother D we accepted
it but the majority of the ministers did
not accept it in fact they overheard
pastors overheard saying we hope the
pastors here have better sense than to
preach that foolishness in their pulpit
and they totally many many not all but
many rejected it outright so that tells
tells me that it’s not being preached
from pulpits that many people when this
happens are going to rise up against
their pastors and say where were you
were you not in prayer did you not hear
from God folks there’ll be nobody in
this church to be able to say that
because Pastor Carter and I and other
pastors that have been hearing from God
have been standing in this pulpit and we
have been warning
lovingly now let’s talk about how to
prosper in hard times father I pray that
you give me your mind I’m just going to
talk from my heart tonight lord it’s
something you put in my heart you put a
weeping spirit in me over your church
that is not prepared it’s not ready
they’re going to be shocked they’re
going to be surprised many are going to
be angry and say God how can you do it
just like the young man the homosexual
gay uh boy that’s young man that’s dying
of age he’s saying God how could you do
this to me how could you not prepare me
for this how could you have allowed this
in my life and yet he has to all he had
warning after warning after warning
there are going to be people Lord that
are going to be shocked and surprised
rise up and even curse their pastors
because they did not hear from God lord
I pray that you cause us to hear your
mind tonight speak clearly to us I pray
in Jesus name
Amen Let me give you the heartbeat of
many Christians these are all
Christians uh from my mailing list dear
Pastor
Dave
I’m writing you because I’m perplexed
about your recent messages about
America’s upcoming Financial collapse
all our lives my wife and I have been
good stewards of the blessings God’s
bestowed upon us we’ve supported many
Ministries including yours and of course
our local
congregation my question to you brother
Dave is this our investments have been
good to us and now support us quite
comfortably in if the economy is about
to collapse as you
say where do you suggest we put our
finances are we to trust mutual funds
the stock market the local bank or our
bedroom
[Applause]
mattress now this man is very serious he
says there are these are a few of the
questions we Christians in America need
answered it seems that everyone knows
the there’s Gloom ahead but no one has
any recommendations for us how to
prepare we’re out of debt we pay our
ties where do you suggest we put our
share of the money I know you’re not a
financial advisor but you got us all
concerned about the economy and we’d
love to hear from you and from the
almighty
God you know he put me first
[Applause]
before
letter from the
Midwest Pastor Dave thank you for your
warning we’re praying for instructions
now we are hearing so many voices and
prophetic words that leave us in
confusion we know God’s not the author
of confusion we have a local christian
radio station that features prophecy and
we are hearing some strange things and
strange reactions to these prophecies
all over our area one man friend of ours
determined to sell his house and move
his family into an apartment he said
because things are not going to last
much longer anyhow his wife is in
distress his family is Disturbed his
children are
upset said and a local church is
absolutely shut down because people are
following the instructions of a certain
Prophet here and everything is being
misinterpreted
prophetically so a few of us as
intercessors got together we’ve come to
the following conclusions number one we
will pray that we will not be deceived
by any prophecy number two that we will
clearly hear and obey God’s Voice number
three that we will use these hard times
to become more intimate with the Lord
and number four and now these folks have
no Pastor nobody they’re just
intercessors this what God saying and
number four that our property our homes
be available for the use of others we
are ready to Harbor other Christians who
need
[Applause]
help and from the West Coast a brother
wrote he said pastor Wilkerson you warn
about the collapse of the stock market
but our Pension funds are invested there
the pensions constitute the major source
of income for millions of Christians
most of us have no choice over those
Investments of our funds they social
security over which I have no control
there’s a broad range of Investments
that are all dependent on the stock
market were these institutions going to
invest their funds their endowments
their annuities and we as individuals we
don’t have any choice if the market
crashes sold to all our Union pensions
the teachers pensions ministers pensions
I have a missionary call I’m going to
need those funds to support me on the
mission field and if an economic
collapse is coming we need more than a
warning we need Solutions and
answers now folks let me tell you
something right here now these are
samples of letters that are coming from
all over the United States the majority
of Christians say thank you Jesus for
being so merciful to warn us but if
you’re merciful enough to warn us would
you not be merciful enough to show us
how to prepare now most of these
Christians that are writing to us are
not greedy Christians trying to hoard
money these are
tithers these are praying people who
love God and and they say we we don’t
have any place to turn we don’t have any
answers please brother wison give us
something uh from it i’ I’ve been on my
face before the Lord you say well
brother I live in paycheck to paycheck I
don’t have any stocks bonds I don’t
those those things don’t mean anything
to me there is a pension there’s Social
Security and and there is your weekly
check your rent check your food check
and all these other things and you can’t
tell me you’re not human and you’re
wondering about it yourself how do we
survive how are we going to make it
Pastor Dave now folks as a pastor I I
feel this burden of the lord I can’t
just stand and warn people that hard
times are coming so Lord if you use me
as a voice to do that then you better
use me as a voice to give people some
kind of instruction not just on not on
investments but how are we going to
survive so that we’re not facing the
future focused on the hard times it
bothers me very much that uh the the
focus now there’s so much Gallows humor
there’s so much talk about everything
blowing up and everything falling down
and the end of all
things that even the the some of the
most Pious Christians that’s all they
talk about they’re not even focused on
the Lord anymore they’re not focused on
the word of God and they have no peace
of mind there’s a troubling all over the
nation God never hides anything from his
people he does hide the truth if he’s
going to warn us he’s not going to just
leave us hang there under that Damocles
sword and live in constant dread and
fear that’s not the way our heavenly
father you wouldn’t treat your children
that way and God will not treat us that
way
the problem is we don’t want biblical
answers to these problems we want
secular answers we want man centered
answers because when I come now and and
tell you that I’m going to talk about
how Christians can prosper in hard times
there’s going to be some have a mindset
say well wait this is trickery I don’t
want any nebulous talk about God being
my
broker I I don’t want something in
practical where you just say pray and
hear a voice from God he’s going to
direct
you no I want to know where I put my
money do I go to te-
bills do I take my retirement funds out
of control of these and try because you
can do that can can I put the little bit
of money I have a retirement and and put
it in government T bills or
whatever you know people tell me if
you’re going to put your money put it in
treasury bills govern government te
bills because if the government goes
down it’s all over anyhow that’d be the
last thing that
stands sad to say multitudes of
Christians have so neglected the word of
God they have had so little the word of
God revealed to them from their pulpits
and their churches that they no longer
have confidence in this book they no
longer believe that this is the real
answer so what they’re doing now even
the even Christians that should know
better they have lost confidence in this
book they they have no ability to get
along with God in a secret closet a way
to get direction from God and I’m going
to tell you you may laugh at this but
God is my
[Applause]
broker God should be our broker what do
you mean by that brother Dave how much
money you
got I’m responsible for for the monies
that come into this church to support
all the Charities and everything else
and and and what God has
supplied we have to get together as
pastors and we pray and we meditate
before the Lord and and and God gives
direction for it is written I will
destroy the wisdom of the
wise and I’ll bring to nothing the
understanding of The Prudent has God not
made foolish the wisdom of the world you
see people all over United States
Christians they want me to give them
something from my
head something I’ve
read expect me to be an
economist I’m the most stupid Economist
on the face of the
earth I don’t know
anything I know judgment is coming
but I know the
[Applause]
book do I trust any Economist in America
in the world no do I trust any secular
newsletter Financial newsletter no do I
trust Social Security no do I trust that
the government’s going to
survive even that can
fail you mean you don’t trust a pension
f you don’t trust any of these you who
do you
[Applause]
trust every where I go I’m looking for a
safe place for my
money I have a feeling if I’m going to
tell you something I’m tell you this in
truth
in the next 6 months I could be a
multi-millionaire are you
listening if all I
did I I could do it easy I would I would
get I would go to the library here and
pick up every New York Times and Time
Magazine all the and I would piece
together every little bit of information
from all of these stupid economists that
don’t know what they’re doing because
God’s blinded them judicially because of
sin the wisdom of the world said I’m
going to make it
foolishness and I could write a book how
to survive the coming depression nothing
spiritual about it and I could just send
it out to Christians and I tell you what
I could sell a million of those books at
$8 a piece and have $8 million in the
next six
months because people don’t want Bible
answers that that that that’s too
nebulous that’s too
that’s spiritual what does spirituality
have to do with investment what
spirituality have to do with learning
how to to make it in hard times folks
that’s everything that is the basis of
it if you’re a
Christian you know if God says he’s
going to shake everything can be shaken
the only thing left is going to be those
things that can’t be shaken doesn’t it
doesn’t it sound reasonable then to find
out what can’t be shaken and go get on
that
ground and and God’s clearly shown us
what can’t be
shaken now there’s a kind of believer
the scripture says go to Psalm 1 the
first Psalm one first
Psalm there’s
a there’s a kind of a Believer the Bible
says going to
prosper in any kind of situation no
matter what the economy
is verse
three I’m going to show you the man
who’s going to prosper in hard times
then we’ll go back and explain it and he
this man is going to prosper in hard
time this woman he should be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water verse
three that bringeth forth fruit in his
season his Leaf also shall not wither
and whatsoever he doeth shall
what now that word in Hebrew means to
overcome any adversity it means to rise
above and overcome any kind of adversity
economic physical spiritual any
adversity this man is going to prosper
now the Bible said there’s that kind of
man I won’t be that man or that woman
you want to be that woman There It Is
God hangs this out in front of us and
God is not a tease God is not a
mocker he said there’s a man here he’s
in the B any in this book Pastor Carter
made it clear I want it he wants all the
good stuff the spiritual stuff that
makes a man or woman of God this is part
of right
here thank God it’s
there to prosper is to overcome
adversity David said the ungodly are not
so verse four the ungodly are not so but
they’re like the chaff which the wind
driveth way now look at me please
there’s a storm coming it’s going to be
a windy storm there going to be
spiritual lightning and thunder like
we’ve never
known and in this hard time there are
going to be many Christians Blown Away
the ungodly are going to be blown away
they’re going to be blown away with this
adversity we’ve got people now that are
multi-millionaires driving $200,000
Automobiles and living in $510 million
homes are going to be poverty stricken
without a dollar it is going to be
awesome they’re going to be driven Away
by the wind
of adversity that’s
coming Jesus said their hearts will fail
them for fear beholding those things
that are coming on the
Earth but then he says there are The
Godly ones who will not be driven to
despair they’ll face the same violence
storm the same calamities and they are
going to survive it they’re going to
prosper in those times now let me tell
you the kind of prosperity I’m talking
about it’s not a Prosperity as expressed
and known by the world riches good
silver Estates all kinds of uh material
wealth we’re talking about everything in
the scripture talks about Prosperity
being the fulfilled life in Jesus
Christ where whether you bound or
whether you’re based makes no difference
to
you that the real wealth is the
knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ and
your security in him that come what may
nothing is going to blow you
away what Comfort what peace is it if if
you’re what they call one of the lucky
ones and and you saw the storm coming
like many people New York Times says
that many wealthy people in New York
City many in Wall Street have already
got their golden parachute they have a
place out in the country stocked with
food they’ve got their guns they’ve got
everything to protect their stockpile
and they’re out there now just waiting
and they’ve got their chauffers waiting
they’ve got a little Shack or little
little little cottage for their
chauffeur and he’s ready to scoot them
out of this city first sign of any kind
of Riot or
violence but what Comfort is it if if
you one of those so-called lucky ones
and and you were able to keep your money
and everything around you is crashing
what kind of comfort is it when God said
I’m going to shake terribly the Earth
I’m going to shake it and everything you
turn on the news and everything is
shaking around you and you’re sitting
there nervously trying to protect what
you have and every time there’s somebody
out in the yard you somebody’s got the
gun and a and and and there’s
nervousness and everything else and
living like this there are books written
now by Christian uh writers telling
people how to prepare for the coming
storm one of them that I have in my
library it says you you
buy 25 cans one pound cans of chewing
tobacco so that you can trade it with
the sheriff when he comes to help
protect you when your food is under
attack this Christian book suggests that
you buy four cases of booze big bottles
of fifths of whiskey so that anybody
comes against you and they’re criminal
type they’ll rather have the whiskey
give them the
whiskey and I’m reading this
stuff and they list five kinds of guns
that you have to have and how much
ammunition you have to have I’m say
these are
Christians
I wonder how many guns they had in the
wilderness protect their
[Applause]
Mana you see Isaiah prophesied in a Time
similar to
this in his early days the land was full
the scripture says of silver and gold
neither was there any end of their
Treasures Treasures their land was full
of horses neither any end of their
chariots chariots horses
cars in our time there was no end to the
wealth gold was their Idol an idolatry
of hoarding gold and
silver purchasing expensive
chariots the gold had become their Idol
and they said their desire was to live
the rest of their life in e
above the reach of danger beyond the
reach of danger but a day came similar
today I believe that that we’re talking
about when God arose to shake that
society and that gold and that silver
all that materialism that had been
hoarded was of no value in the tear of
the storm with all their materialism
wealth and their gold and silver here’s
what happened the scripture say in that
day a man shall cast his idols of silver
and his idols of gold to the moles and
to the bats to go to the Cliffs of the
rocks for fear of the Lord and for the
glory of his majesty when he arises to
shake terribly the Earth folks when he
this shaking comes gold and silver is
not going to buy you a cow it won’t buy
you a McDonald’s
hamburger you don’t believe that but
that’s what the Bible said that things
can get so bad when the nation is under
the Judgment of chastening of the Lord
that gold and silver
because evidently money can lose its
value now the Christian who is
prosperous in hard times is the one
who’s given up on the counsel of the
ungodly and has cast himself completely
on the counsel of the Holy Spirit and
the voice of God now listen to it
again do you want to prosper in hard
times then you turn your ears away from
the counsel of the ungodly
and you cast yourself
completely becoming wholly
dependent on the voice of the Holy
Spirit who abides in
you David said of this man in verse one
the prosperous man look at verse one
chapter one of Psalm blessed is the man
that walketh not in the counsel of the
ungodly nor standeth in the way of
Sinners nor sth in the sked of the
scornful now folks listen to me please
he’s talking about counsel he’s talking
about where you get your advice whether
it be for Investments and how to live
whatever it may be now when it says
blessed is this man that walth not in
counsel in God nor standeth the way of
Sinners nor s the SE of the scor he not
talking about going to to x-rated movies
with your friends uh ungodly friends
he’s not talking about all the
Abominable things we talk about he he
the the whole thing is this blessed is
the believer who refuses to make any
decision or to be influenced by the
advice and counsel of ungodly scoffers
who hold God’s word in
derision it’s not it goes so far beyond
just sex and and gambling and and and uh
uh standing in the way of sin or sitting
in a movie theater with Wicked people
around that’s an abominable thing to God
but that’s not what he’s talking about
he said if you want to be prosperous he
said
you’re going to have to make sure that
you do not make any decision because
you’re my bride and I will not have my
bride I’ll not have my church depending
on a second
mind you will have the mind of Christ
you will seek me God Says with all your
heart your mind soul and strength you
will turn to
me his Delight is in the law of the Lord
in his law he doth meditate day and
night he’s not getting his direction
from somebody he’s not he’s not making
his decisions based on what he reads in
the newspaper or what any Economist says
he bases every decision on what he gets
on his
knees and he’s meditating in the law of
the Lord in the law the he meditates day
and night don’t please don’t come to me
and say Pastor I’m concerned where I I I
want to know what to do don’t
expect
God to give you
direction if you won’t even go to him
and ask for
it you’re not even praying you’re not
seeking God you say how am I going to
survive in these last days what am I
going to do and some of you they’re
retired say I don’t have any problem oh
well listen I’m not trying to scare
anybody but none of these things are
safe because they said going to shake
everything everything going to be
shaken You’ better be on your
knees You’ better be seeking his face
now you should do that anyhow not just
to to know how to survive but because
you love him but the byproduct of doing
that out of love is to be in close
communion where you hear you know he
said my sheep know my voice you know his
voice God’s not vague on this in showing
his hatred and
his
dislike this process of going to
somebody else than to him for direction
and counsel woe to them that go down to
Egypt for help and trust in horses and
chariots in Horsemen because they’re
many and strong but they look not unto
the Holy One of Israel neither do they
seek the
Lord he said you’re running everywhere
else looking for direction you want
advice you want counsel but you won’t
come to me how many these people that
are writing to me are their face how
many are in the secret closet because I
have a suspicion or I I I have a
knowledge I believe is a better word in
me that if they have been seeking God
with all of their
heart God would have put their mind at
ease God would have already told I’m
going to take care of you I’m going to
tell you every step to take I’m going to
see you through this he would bring
Comfort to the heart the holy spirit is
here and he’s the comforter if you’re
spending time with the Holy Ghost he’s
got to be comforting
you
Isaiah warned all that put their
confidence in ungodly help they’re going
to fall the scripture says chap Isaiah
30:3 they shall all fall together that
means the counselor and those who listen
to their counsel Jeremiah 17:5 thus
sayith the Lord cursed be the man that
trusteth in man and maketh flesh his arm
and whose heart departs from the Lord
then the prophet said but bless blessed
is the man that trusteth in the Lord and
whose hope is the Lord he shall never
cease from bearing fruit
never he will always have an
answer all right secondly those who
fully trust the Lord Jesus Christ need
never be moved or
terrorized about the coming
storm no one on earth nobody knows
the full extent of what’s going to
happen nobody knows that I don’t there’s
nobody that knows the full extent of
what it is but Paul made a statement I
was reading it this past week and it
blessed me remember Paul was going up to
Jerusalem and he said I go Bound in the
spirit up to Jerusalem not knowing the
things that shall befall me
there he had no idea that when he got
there he’s going to turn the city upside
down he had no idea that he was going to
be
stoned he had no idea that the temple
would go wild and a mob would take him
prisoner into the high
priest that he would be bound with
chains threatened with death he brought
before rulers and tried and examined and
finally end up in a Roman prison he
didn’t know any of that he said I I’m
looking to the Future I don’t know
what’s
coming there were hard times coming for
him in fact Paul
said I’m not knowing those things that
befall me but none of these things move
me neither can out my life dear to
myself he said the Holy Ghost he he made
it very clear that the Holy Ghost had
told him that that hard times awaited
him persecution of afflictions he said
it’s all I know that persecutions are
going to befall me I don’t know what the
future holds all he knows that the Holy
Ghost has warned me hard times and
afflictions are accounted to me that’s
acts
20:23 now folks we don’t know what’s
coming but we do know God says hard
times are coming just like he told Paul
the Holy Ghost warned him and Paul said
he was Greatful of the Holy Ghost
warning
him but he said I want to tell you
something I don’t know what’s coming I
don’t know how hard in fact if they if
the Holy Ghost had told him how hard is
good it may have been a little difficult
for him but I don’t think so with Paul
because he said really I know how to
abound and I know how to be
abased he said I found all things I’m
contented because I have Christ I’ve won
him and nobody can take that from
me they can take a paycheck they can
take everything else away from me but
they can’t take what I have in my heart
heart and I fully trust in him who was
able to keep that which I’ve committed
unto him against that day that’s any
day Paul the Apostle said but you see
none of those things move me he was not
moved by the potential of facing hard
times because he coveted no man’s silver
or gold he said I have coveted no man
silver or gold or apparel he said I
don’t want I don’t want anybody’s bank
account you can have all those things
gold silver all of that I’m not even
looking Paul probably only had one
tunic one one piece of clothing one one
suit so to speak of his day he said I I
I’m not after any of those
things I have showed you all I have
showed you all things how that laboring
you ought to support the weak and to
remember the words of the Lord Jesus how
he said it is more blessed to give than
to receive now this man’s facing hard
times he’s thinking about giving not
hoarding I got a we got a Go and show me
a beautiful letter little lady in the
Midwest and sweetest that that I think
she mentioned she was a
grandmother and she said Pastor David I
know hard times have come I’m a Praying
Woman that God’s revealed to me it’s
going to be worse than anybody knows and
she said they’re not even going to be
able to buy little things so the Lord
told her she said to go collect little
things that people are not going to be
able to to get like she saving up hair
pins needles thread and she’s got rooms
full of all of this stuff she’s got not
for herself she says I’m going to be in
hardest time I’m going to be giving
everybody things that they can’t get
toothpaste and and all these things that
I I can’t argue with that because she’s
got a giving heart she’s got a room full
of hair pins and B pins and safety pins
and needles and everything else but
she’s got a giving
heart glory to
God I’m not I’m not against storing food
could you better have a gun around if
you’re going to store food it’s because
you want to give to your neighbors you
want to give to others and to
[Applause]
friends mhm
you know you contrast that Spirit of
this little lady because she just wants
to
give contrast that with the spirit
grabbing everything you can get and if
I’m the only one that survives I’m going
to
survive if I have to shoot everybody
else to do
it God help
us now let me tell you why none of these
coming calamities ought to move you or
me as
Christians hear it well now because
man’s hour of darkness is always Christ
Hour of
Power now let me tell you what I’m
talking about before I close here very
quickly God’s Hour of Power is always
revealed or always
brought
into action at the point of man’s
greatest
despair remember Jesus being invited to
a wedding with his disciples his mother
was there evidently a friend of Mary’s
who’s getting married but Jesus and his
disciples were
invited
and jesus’ mother came to him and said
they have run out of
wine and remember what Jesus said woman
what have I to do with thee my time my
hour is not yet come my hour’s not yet
come I’ve often wondered about that now
I looked this up now the when he he said
woman that that expression uh was an
oriental expression that was of the
highest order of respect of that time
woman was not a an address of disrespect
the Oriental mind at that time woman was
a very
respectful
address he he’s he’s saying you want me
to turn water into wine but my not hour
is not yet come now that hour came
shortly after that hour came for his
demonstration of
power but Jesus I I always picture Jesus
you know at the wedding everybody’s out
here and he’s way back here somewhere in
a corner just
watching CU my mind could never conceive
how Jesus know could be happy and
laughing and and hug somebody and say
congratulations bride you’re getting
married God bless you I’ve always
pictured Jesus over here what am I doing
here man you
know cuz that’s like
me I put myself in the picture weddings
I’m always back here when’s this thing
going to be
over no not when I’m up here doing it
it’s it’s the
reception I should have never said
that should have never said
that
almost lost my
place Jesus said my hours didn’t come
you know why Jesus said
that they hadn’t come to the end now the
the bottles were empty because she told
them go bottles and do what he
says but Jesus is looking out over and
they still have wine in their
glasses now when Jesus turned water into
wine I’m not I I I could almost proof
you it’s not not
alcoholic and the reason for that is
because wine causes if if a woman is
expecting a child alcoholic beverages
can kill that child and Jesus would
never
offer that kind of Beverage to put a
baby at
risk there was a wine at that time I I
did all the I wrote a book on
it and uh I maybe have to reproduce it
but
uh
Jesus is standing there said my hour is
not come because they’re not they have
not run out of their resources they’re
still I’m going to wait he’s waiting now
till there’s not a drop of wine left
anywhere not a
drop in other words he’s he’s looking at
these people and he’s he’s saying my
hour is not yet come my hour comes when
there’s no other hope
when there’s no other
way where there’s not a drop left where
there’s not one bit of resource to
depend on In the Flesh not anything
man-made left nothing of the flesh left
where there’s total dependence on
me now he was not going to perform this
miracle for anybody there except his
disciples around him this miracle was
for his
disciples now remember Jesus said he
didn’t do anything unless he was led by
the father father so the the his father
led him to that and he’s doing what the
heavenly father is teaching him to do
and there’s a lesson in this the Lord is
saying look my hour comes when you’re at
the end of your resources you look
around I don’t know where my paycheck
comes I don’t know what’s going to
happen there’s no wine
left that when there is not a drop left
whether there is you can’t look to the
right or left or anywhere and find any
source of comfort you have nothing to
depend on
then the Lord said my hours
come then happens the
miraculous then the miraculous
Provisions begin and folks I honestly
believe that we are going to see
Miracles as as real as anything the
children of Israel saw in the wilderness
we’re going to live on Miracle power
from the holy spirit because America’s
darkest hour is Christ’s finest Hour of
Power to provide for his people now
folks this was strictly human provision
this wasn’t some spiritual
Revival he’s trying to show us his first
miracle My First Love is my people I
care about how you eat I care about your
your house over your head I care about
you and when everything collapses around
you it’s my
[Applause]
hour
John
13:1 says Jesus knew that his hour had
come that he should depart out of this
world under the father but in Luke 22 it
says when they came after him and Judas
kissed him and they came at him with
swords and knives he said this is your
hour of
Darkness it was the hour of darkness and
actually I when you see this picture
this is man’s hour of Darkness but it
was actually Christ’s hour of power to
the human eye Christ is being Carried
Away by human power he’s going to be
crucified and Satan was boasting this
light is going out I am going to
extinguish this light my darkness will
prevail Jesus said this is your eye of
Darkness what he saying the devil is
boasting you’re boasting you’re going to
extinguish the
light you’re going to wipe out hope of
mankind and all of Heaven all of Hell
rejoiced at this but
all the prophet Isaiah said it all arise
Shine for the light is come Jesus came
out of the Grave a blazing
light it was not the power of Darkness
it was the hour of Darkness but it was
really the hour of Christ’s greatest
Triumph is greatest
power
you see it it wasn’t because the prophet
said the light is going to come bursting
forth the glory of the Lord is going to
rise for Behold The Darkness shall cover
the Earth gross Darkness the people but
the Lord shall arise upon thee when in
Gross Darkness covering the whole earth
folks the Earth is going the whole globe
is going into gross
Darkness thank God the light and that
darkest hour is going to rise in your
heart and my it’s going to shine
brighter than ever what makes the light
shine brighter the darker it gets the
brighter the light
Hallelujah the Lord shall arise upon
thee his glory shall be seen upon thee
and the Gentiles shall come to thy light
the Kings to the brightness of thy
Rising you say well brother works there
going to be a depression stock market
crash unemployment we’re going to have
food exhausted is there going to be
Darkness everywhere uncertainty yes
gross Darkness will cover the Earth but
in that dark hour will be his finest
greatest Hour of
Power folks I’m starting to get excited
as I study the
word you know all when I was a young
preacher I wanted to see Miracles I I
really fasted and prayed Lord give me
power to go into any hospital and raise
anybody I’m going to lay hand Lord you
did it in the Old Testament you did it
in the New Testament God I want that
power to and I I was sincere about it
and and uh many young preachers have
prayed that God where’s your power we’re
going to
see
incredible Miracles folks are going to
be meetings in this church one day
should the Lord
Terry where we could spend just a whole
Saturday encouraging one another and
shouting listening to the miraculous
thing things that God’s doing in
everybody’s life all who trust him
Miracle after Miracle after Miracle of
provision of of God doing Supernatural
things I heard of a a pastor’s wife poor
poor pastor’s wife
and you maybe heard the
testimony he invited about 12 hungry
pastors hadn’t eaten the house and his
wife went into the kitchen and there was
a little bit of spaghetti just the
enough for two three people and Lord
said put the water on and put it in she
put it in and she just kept coming out
of that pot and fed 14 people out of
that
one bit of spaghetti these These are
honest people I know them they don’t lie
it was a miracle and even to this day
that’s that was 12 15 years ago they
still they’re faith is so strong because
they saw what God could do to keep them
they don’t worry anymore about anything
because they said God can
do where did Jesus get his tax
[Applause]
money where did the food fall in the
desert right out of
heaven

clear because God told me to do this God
the Holy Ghost told me I’m not going to

people we could have big Alder call and
and make me feel real
nice but that’s not the point tonight

coming to this church for quite a
while and and brother Carter put it so
strong in the Holy Ghost this afternoon
the possibility getting
hard God dealing with your sin time and
time again and you hold on to it and
play with it until finally you’re just
comfortable with it God says no God says
I’m I’m speaking clearly to you tonight

his finger on it right now and say you

your eyes something you’re doing with
your body whatever it may be the Lord’s
saying tonight I want to deliver you in
your darkest hour I can have my finest
hour if you’ll just come and surrender

your life and I jumped off this stage
and I went back to you and I point a
finger right in your face and I said
you’re the man you’re the woman you’ve
got sin you walk down this aisle with me

God could ever do for you it would not

from your evil Deeds you turn from your
wickedness he said the secret of the
Lord is with them that fear Him the Lord

Covenant by the fear of the Lord men
depart from
evil but then once you’ve come to Him
and acknowledge your sin and say I don’t

it it under no condition can what I’ve
done be made right it has to be killed
destroyed and then you allow Jesus to

God fingered You by his holy ghost
convicted you all out of

you go and not convict the most
wonderful thing in the world is that you
were able to be
convicted that the Holy Ghost could
touch
