Prophetic Intent 2023 - Clem Ferris - Being a Prophetic House

Church. I'm a governing over there and operate out of there. If we've been there, 22 years, almost 23 years. And before that, I passed her down in the State of Florida. I plan to the church and early 90s before that I was at a church in Tampa. Florida, under a, one of my greatest inventors of dr. David blocker, who's also been here Chiefs, who he mentioned in Draper kind of cohorts in prophetic Ministry and so I trained under them traveled with them, came to England with them, now they're both in heaven now. So guess what? I'm still carrying some of their work, have to get the work done. It's a real privilege. So, adult children with five grandchildren and our youngest son is getting married in May. So there's hope for more grandchildren still and keep it going straight to be with Dave and Julia is always in the RCF family and loved. So this is exciting. So, you know, it's a perfect weekend, right? Which means we have license to do whatever we want. Just blame it on God. I just felt for pet like this. I feel like we need to do this. So we kind of have rules, but we slide around and I wanted to do something this morning because of what's turn on God's agenda.

Names like what I'm the spirit last fall, a friend of mine, and I think Dave, you know, Jim laffoon right there is a profit but he came up under our family of churches in North Carolina but no engine works with another major Network called every nation gym travels a lot in the little bit older than I am. But very well known in America who run the world. But. God gave him a very powerful world or up a powerful vision for the fourth, some things happen in the world in the context. He gave it in was for the United States. But I believe it's a global impact. This coming from highlights. The word that God gave him. It was about Revival and the way he put He says the Holy Spirit folks, my eyes on the feet of Jesus, he said they were very dusty as I pondered this Vision, I realize we were in danger. Of the godhead shaking the dust of our nation off of America's, ongoing rejection of the gospel. And we, we are guilty that I mean, and I'm sure you've you sent over here to Britain, we sense it in other parts of the world where people are just really do anything to do with God, just shaking off the gospel. And I asked Jesus, when will this revival begin? And he said, the first drops are already falling. This is last. This is the fall of 2022 and suddenly an unusually large raindrops fell from heaven right next to Jesus, Dusty feet and much to my amazement. It did not evaporate in immediately it glistened in the burning Sunshine. It actually created a dome light canopy over the hot parched ground, then Jesus spoke to me again and said tell my church to create cisterns spiritual water storage systems. The Trap, the first drops of Revival rain, these words left me with an unusual sense of urgency. I realized, watch, we had to create fresh space in our churches for the Holy Spirit to move in touch life's. Dangerous actually said that you didn't know I was going to read this your day. Say that we have to make space if you make space for the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit impressed upon me that without these first drops, our people would not have the spiritual strength, they need in order to press in for the fullness of the outpouring with we come soon. SS Vision was coming to an end to Holy Spirit. Spoke to these words to me, repeatedly, it's not business. As usual, it's not business, as usual. It's not business, as usual, and many other things. I also send it to day, maybe.

There's something happening.

two and a half weeks ago, there was a Asbury University in America. had their normal Wednesday morning, Chapel and when it was over. So students wanted to linger and stay and maybe you've heard about it. Maybe spend the night over here, but long story short, it was an ongoing prayer meeting for 2 weeks 24/7. People began to come from All Over America. People even came from the UK and up in other nations to come see. At one point, they closed the streets to the city has over 100,000 people to come to a town of 6,000 and they said we can't we don't have room for any more people about making room. For God it's interesting our pastor coming into the new year.

Felt like God said. We started out the year with 21 days of prayer and fasting and we had live prayer meetings, every morning at 7 a.m. at our church. Monday through Saturday and we had the greatest turnout we've ever had, we had 70 or 80 people live in the room sometimes up to 100 and then double that online. With a lot of young, people coming out of young people and something was happening and we started a series in our church, and we called it, make room for God, and we opened up our altars on Sunday morning voice a prayer. But we really there was such a move of God that people were staying after church and coming up for prayer. Like we've never seen such a move for prayer and these campuses and they're now there's other campuses breaking out. Would you call a Revival? I don't know. You're calling at all kinds of things. I like the word, Awakening. We tried everything. We, we've been stunned Netflix. We've tried this. We tracked that, right? We were all locked out for, you know, in covid. But there's this unrest, but I forgot. So that's kind of what we're being launching into. Here's, I want to challenge you from what let's make room this morning. Let's make room for God. And to launch that, I'm actually going to be talking about some The Prophet Elijah and how there's a woman. The shunammite Woman made room for him made room for the perfect. We said the prophetic but which just means the voice of God. There's all kinds of voices out there. First Corinthians 14:11 says, Paul was teaching the Christian church. He said there's there's many voices out there and I don't think I don't think he had the internet in mind back then, when he wrote it on the internet more than ever, we have voices 24/7. And he says, None is Annie in the Greek, it's a double negative. He says, None is without significations in the Greek, it would say, literally and none of them are unknown voice. Another is they all have something to say. They all think they're significant, whether it's an advertising slogan or the news feed or whatever you're listening to voices.

We need to make room for the voice of God and so let's pray that way. Let's just say

There's no buttons to push. There's no abracadabras. Or we just say in our hearts God. We want to make room for you. Speak to us. Meet us. We're hungry. We're not satisfied with what the world has to give. So God give us what only you can give Your presence, your voice. You can hear the voice of God. Amen. You can hear him. You're going to hear him today. Let me know when God created the first man Genesis 1. The first thing God did when he created man was talk to her. You made him that he said and the Lord said you stop there. Cuz what did he say? That's that's secondary. What's primary is God? Made men in the first thing ever did was talk to him which means the first requirement of man was to hear the voice of God. Not be a Christian. You to make medicine now you, but you need to be a Christian and behave, don't he made man and then began to speak into his creation. That was, that's who we are. So, Let's go to 2nd Kings chapter 4, we're going to be in Second Kings in several different chapters. And up. There's a lot of lot of ways to describe this scenario. I think big picture. I want to call it residing face for the supernatural church. The church has to maintain the status of we are a supernatural Church. We're church or something about the church that supposed to be Supernatural, natural. You can have natural gas rings. What does a natural gather Club? You can have an organization. You can have sporting clubs. There's always together people, but we're Gathering of God's people, for the accuracy of the Greek word, the called out ones. And so, we need a residing Faith to be the supernatural people. God called us to be So in 2nd Kings chapter 4, we're going to pick up the story in verse 8. About this shunammite woman. I want to suggest you using metaphors now and it looking for symbolism here that the shunammite woman represents the needy Church. The hungry needy Church, look at yourself today as the shunammite woman, I need something from God, I want something So one day Elijah, who represents is the profit but also represents the voice of God hearing from God. Why she went on to shoot him, we were a wealthy woman lived who urged him to eat some food It's a problem traveling Ministry. Dave everywhere I go people want me to eat food. So anyway, Your last name is terrible. You guys, do it really well. So whenever he passed that way, he would turn in there to eat food and she said to her husband behold. Now I know that this is a holy man of God, whose continually passing our white. Let us make a small room on the roof with wall. And put there for him up at a table, a chair and a lamp. So that whenever he comes to us, he can go there. I called this. Building the prophets chamber, nowruz building something that can contain, not only a person, but the voice of God, some of that represents the voice of God and knows that just nothing about physical room. Talking about the Chamber of your heart, your heart is the Chamber of your faith. Where would you locate your faith? You say, what my left foot now? Why you become a Christian by believing in your Heart, Romans 10, right? How do you say believe in your heart and confess with your mouth? So that means the heart is the Chamber of Faith. That's where God puts faith. God gives you faith and your mouth is the origin of your faith. How do you know if someone has Faith, listen, to the way they talk, are they filled with faith or fear can be both. So, Faith, resides in the chambers of our heart. And so, what we want to do today is help all of us. Don't what I be called the prophets chamber in our heart. You could actually, you know, you can't just build it on a building say that we built the chamber, we want to build it inside but there's some principles here that we can understand in the starts out with relationship. Has to be relational.

Back to vs8. One day Elijah went on to show them where wealthy woman lived who urged him to eat some food. That's relationship. That's that's true of all Nations. I've been Just blessed to be in over 48, different nations over my type of ministry and Everywhere You Go, whether it's Asia Africa, wherever you go. You create relationship with a meal. We're probably going to have food today, right? Mr. Food mr. Mrs. Food are going to make sure we have some food because it's, it's part of how we build relationship. We have a joke saying it actually, beneficial, Christian Gathering. Christians have to eat something, but we do with eating bread,

Urged him to eat some food, whatever your past, that way, he would turn in there to eat food. So there's this idea of building relationship and it says end, and she said to her husband behold. Now, I know that this man is a holy man, of God perception. Something about when you start building relationship, you get to know the person. You get to know where their spiritual status, is I perceive something about this guy. So wholly, guess there's this perception. That comes is a holy man of God. Whose so let's do something. Then you want to do something. So let's make a room for him. So this whole. So then there's the idea of reception. Once you said, it shouldn't have food with somebody. You begin to perceive Who they are you get to know them sometimes you want to make a connection. And so there's this idea of let's make it inspires building. I think that's in the body of Christ whenever we get together, God is a builder. What's the belt stuff? If those people, that's his best work. And then he inspires people to build stuff.

All the way back to Genesis. I'm reading a book right now. It's been fascinating is called God technology in the Christian life and you look back on how God has given, man, the ability to create technology for himself and it was

Goes back, and they just made tools out of metal forming tools, and got a job to build a boat and never seen before. How do I build a boat and the technology in the ark?

Not the pitch. To seal the boat. It would have never made it. I'm going to spank you look magazine. Inspire building the Inspire how to build lives. Do people. So a prophetic word like already, see that was at work already. First thing this morning, building somebody up, they've got up inside. I feel like somebody's here and you need to hear this. What was that inspired building? Somebody's life needs to be built. It's just a habit. In the New Testament, the theme of building is throughout all of the New Testament but particularly when it comes to the gifts of the Spirit, when it comes to the the work of fivefold ministry is to equip the Saints, equip them. We know that if he has four right 11 God gave Apostle Prophet, evangelist Pastor teacher for first 12, the equipping of the Saints and the word equipping is is is a word that it's at the compound word that has to do with crafting. Craft like a do the work of a Craftsman. So basically 54 ministers are Craftsman, Scott heart as much as the work and the root word art, art is Artisan. Socata is a prefix that when you put it on there, it kind of says a standard it it's a standard by which you hold something to ministers. Have a standard on how to build people, they build them. According to the standard, I'm going to the book, right? Here's our standard for building people's lives, right on the book. And so we build and crafts wives, according to God's standards for marriage Life, Family morality and the Beautiful Thing is we build with words Our tools are our words, that's what we preach sermons. That's why we teach in small groups. That's why we hand you up, and listen, oz of paper and websites. And those words are what shape has and changes. So when a prophet speaks, he's shaping your life. When a pastor preaches, he's shaving, your life is crafting. You with his words, the building is in the heart of God. I use their stolen. How many others are New Jerusalem coming in heaven has great architecture is done. There's a new Heaven and a new Earth. Don't look at me, like really practice. Show me, smiley night. I like to see the smiles on your face. This is not business as usual, there's new things coming, so Hear the prophetic presence inspires building.

Let us build something. Let us make a small room. What we're going to do is we're going to put a bed in there. Table and chair. In a lamp, interesting. I like that. What's that mean? Well, you know, you got some ideas but I like I like beds and sleeping a lot of beds in any given year haven't been a bed. I haven't gotten in love with, you know, I love you. I'm so tired. I've never met you before, but here I come all over the world. Rest. Building part of the presence of God has to do with how we rest. Very important concept, we think you know serving God being busy for goddess. So important to God and I'm in pressing God, here's my list of things I got done for God today and everything and

I can't do anything more for God, cuz I'm exhausted. So I'm just going to rest and goggles. Finally good. Rest rest is important, got a right you work 6 days and then he rested. Because it's very important to go out how we rest. Without your phone on.

Guilty guilty.

Or just terrible. So I'm telling on myself some guys that I've meant to hurt and everything they invited me to return. I thought I was going to be ministering there until towards the end. I got the Revelation, I'm not mentioning, I'm the scripture in your identity in Christ and there's a lot of those exercises and your sharing time and there's prayers. It was really good. And I had to switch off my Ministry, brain, and get into receiving mode and it was hard at first but after a while, I just saw a forced quiet time.

That sound good forced fights on Thursday afternoon with sessions. I had notes. Saturday morning, Friday night. We finish after dinner. They go so tomorrow. They're like tomorrow is our last day that we're going to start at 7. A.m. y'all need to be in the room at 7 a.m. and tomorrow we're having a monastic fast. We are I didn't see that on the Eagles. No, it's not on the schedule. Will start at 7 a.m. You'll be fasting all day. It is a monastic fast, which means you're also not talking to anybody all day, so there's no talking to, no, eating all day. We got water and some juice and noodles.

You're going to talk with God, be with God, we have some scriptural assignments, over some exercises and it started at 7, I was done with all my exercises at 8:30. Now what

my Emma Theologian, I could come up with a lot of great stuff, right? But guess what he said. Rust. It's so clear to me. What a retreat all about? I'm a busy guy, rest. And then I had to say, I don't know how I really came to the funny thing is we started a series in our church. After the first of the year, on the 23rd song in our theme is make room for God. And to do that, we went through the 23rd, psalm 6 weeks their 6 versus, you know, you can preach on one verse of the 23rd psalm and we took it apart and so I started traveling pretty happy but the last Sunday that I was actually in our church, The first that they were speaking out was he leads me beside the Still Waters. And I'm sitting there listening

almost like a but I was I was being honest. Toys R Us for a while. I'd like to be busy, forgot it. And then I go on this Retreat and surprise. Ferris, what are going to do all weekend, rest? And I said all that because it'll resting and goddess. Are you prepared to hear from you? I'm going to make room for God. You have to build that profits chamber. You have to make sure you put a bed in there. Make sure you have a spiritual bed where you can rest. So she said, let us put in there for him a bed. And a table and a chair. I think also, if you're going to make room for God, you going to make room for his word and a time to sit it. In fellowship with God, around his word table, and chair sitting reading the word, you can study there, you can eat there, of course, table and chair. We got to eat. This is all making got to eat the word, sit down at his table. And if you do that, if your rest, and if you sit at the table and fellowship with God and eat his word, guess what? You get the lights, come on and put a lamp there for illumination. The lights will come on, they'll be Revelation. Is you meet with God? And I should do that. It'll, I don't know about you, you have to, you have to make room for God to make room and prepare and God will meet you. And I think the reward. if you keep going in, this little dissertation here, There's a reward when you make room for God because remember the shunammite woman was represents us. The needy Church. For needy, she was needing yet. She how did she get her needs met? She minister to someone else. Show verse 11 and will pick up the story one day. He came there and he turned into the chamber and a trusted there.

and he said today, is that his servant call the shunammite And when he called her, she stood before him and he said to him, say no to her. See you've taken all this trouble for us? What is to be done? For you.

What do you need? Give me. Nate's, or we are needy people. We are needy Church.

Would you have a word spoken on your behalf to the king, or to the commander of the Army and the great to know that? We can have a word spoken to our king. That's called intercession prayer. And she said, watch, I dwell among my own people and he said, well, what then is to be done for her, in case I answered. Well, she has no son. And her husband is old. And he said, call her. And what are you called her? She stood in the doorway and he said at this season about the time about this time, next year you shall Embrace a son and she said no my Lord. All men of God do not lie to your service like too good to be true. Sometimes God is too good to be true. That would be impossible or that would be impossible. The very thing. You're hungry for God. Be good to meet you and go God, what's that mean? That's why you got to make room for God. So the guy can put faith in you and faith comes by hearing. So it's the very fact that he spoke it, begin the process of imparting to her what she needed more than son, she needed faith in God for a son having faith.

Don't mind your sermon. Is this really true? Are you really saying this? And then we know the end of the story 417, but the woman conceived, She bore a son about that time, the following spring, as Elijah had said to her spoken, the spoken word, brings faith. Faith comes by hearing Romans 10:17. So that's the reward. So you have the relationship, you build relationship. Ovulation, comes recognition and perception. and then, The reception receiving and building causing you to build that relation to build something and then comes to reward. And that's that's a pattern we have with God.

This building The Profit Stream. That's making room for god. Making room for him. It's how we want to have a residing face. Not just on Sunday morning. But when we leave this room, or wherever you Fellowship, you leave the gathering with the residing faith for Supernatural things to happen outside the church. Outside the church meeting right now. How was the meeting? The question is, what you going to do, when the meeting's over? How was the meeting Sunday, where was great? So now what you going to do now that the meeting is over, you just got imparted faith, you got a sermon preached to, you have prayer, you've been built up, you've been built up your chamber of face. What you going to do with it.

so, Whatever, there's an encounter with God, like this and God gives you something so he gave her a gift. The longing of a heart was what we produce. That's what we want, more children, what he thinks on God's heart? So there's been this outpouring at this University and innocent as young people and I think God saying, I want this next-generation. I want more kids. God's hardest reproduce family. Back to Genesis what what do you speak to the first of humans? Be fruitful and multiply that's never changed. Nothing ever changed his desire. Listen to Noah every wipe out. Everybody else know or what, continue with what my plan. A I'm going to God does new plan B. God has had one plan from beginning, create a family but you know what God is love. And the only way he could really Express who he really is it was to create a family to show how much he loves. So, here's this amazing continuation and so let's read on look at this whole idea of Residing faith for miracles, a 14. What time does to be done for her? It's almost like a play on words, he's almost like playing. Cuz he knows there's an ageist prophetic Eagles. You want something? She's not just giving to get, she's actually she wants something but out of out of her heart's, desire. Put Face for miracles. And it was to break the band of fairness that she was suffering under baroness. And I really believe that God wants to break the bands of barrenness for every believer were called to reproduce were called to see people saved. You know what? I don't know if I go through dry spells, honestly, I'm not the greatest evangelist in the world. I work at the stolic. Lee, I have a prophetic gift, I love teaching and I've been a pastor to Shepherd evangelist, not me. I was disqualify myself or I said that people get saved by accident and meetings I have is not even what I'm thinking about and yet there's times you know that God has to inspire me to share the gospel with somebody and this whole thing about breaking spiritual barrenness in her life to reproduce More kids for God. And this is what happened. God, broke the baroness in the shunammite woman in, God's going to break the baroness and so, yes, we want Revival to revive to bring life where there's no life. So that's why I call it an Awakening. The thing in the Asbury unawakening because Christians are the ones that are getting together and they're already saved. But by has to be awakened, The Passion of the Gospel in them at the reawakened, the Grandeur of the Great Commission that why are you here on the planet Earth? I need to make this much money and I have to feed my retirement planning. You don't have to have this kind of a house, and we have all of our things on why we think we're still here. That's why you're here. We're here to reproduce his family and build his family. Got the Builder. What are we building?

Early. Early commitment might be fruitful multiply replace the Earth, so breaks the band of a little bit further into the story. Because the presence of God and residing faith in a Christian, we become the supernatural church, that does the ultimate. It brings life. Out of death. Do You Realize you're an agent of Life on this Earth to bring people from Death To Life? The dead people walking that lady, we don't know.

Give her Wonder give me a burden for that. I need that. I want more of a burden. Look at people go. I'm really going

So, here's the rest of the story.

Route 18. I'm just going to read through it. I don't know if Dave has a long scripture but you probably know the story but I'm a grown. So he's an adult. You went out one day with his father among the Reapers and he said his father, my head hurts. The father said the servant carry him to his mother and when he had lifted them, brought him to his mother, the child sat on her lap till noon, and then died.

So, she went up and laid him on the bed of the man of God, interesting. The resting place.

She shut the door behind him and went out and then she called to her husband and said, send me one of the servants. And one of the donkeys that I may go quickly to the man of God and come back, why I've got a relationship I know where to go. When I'm in trouble, that's part of making room for God, because guess what, we'll all have trouble. There's going to be time you need to call on God. I'm in trouble.

Is it why would you go with them today? She has, it's either the new new moon or the Sabbath. And she said, well, all izz well phrase, what do you call a man of God? For what's, what's the problem? Nothing. Just died. And you're saying all is well. I have to believe that's faith in God. In other words, no matter what. Where's the old him since it Is Well with My Soul.

When Sorrows, like sea billows.

All is well really.

All is well then she settle the donkey and she said you were serving Thursday, animal onto, not slacken, the pace unless I tell you. So to the metal is Metal, Gods are coming. You said you can say is I look there's the shunammite run. It wants to meet her and say to her is all well with you is all well with your husband is all well with the child and she answered all is well. I look at you say that. I'd be freaking out. My soda. All is well, something inside of her, was there from that deposit. There was residing face for the supernatural in her why she built it. She has built a relationship with a man of God. She administered to the man of God. There was a recognition, your I perceive you're a holy man of God, there's something about you and so I'm going to make a chamber. So that what you have I get Especially when I'm in trouble. I'm going to say I have faith in till you have to use it right out of Faith until crisis. So all is well, really and what you came to the mountain to the man of God, she caught hold of his feet and get his I said came to push her away. With the man of God said, leave her alone. She's a bitter distress and the Lord has hidden it from me and is not told me but received again prophetically, said she's in distress. Don't know why. How many of God doesn't tell you everything? That should take a lot of pressure off your today. I came to hear from God. Well let me just tell you you're going to hear what God wants you to hear. Not what you want to hear, that's Mercy by the way, that's not God being mean, that's the mercy of God, I've never processing over a pastor's daughter number of years ago, she was about fifteen sixteen. She was in that age, I was prophesied a number of things, and I've been to the word. If you never heard it before, I sent in, God will be your work around her. It just came to me that way. Neither was God's going to work it out but I came out this way that's going to be your work or outer. God's going to work it out and then and so you think you're 16 and you hear that phrase. I see you going through a dark and sad time but God's going to work it out and you think it's safe in your old process that at that time, I'll make sure he's going to break up with her boyfriend. She won't get to go to the prom. Someone's going to unfriend her on Facebook. She lose her cell phone. How does a sixty-year-old process that phrase amongst the other things that I was thinking? She said property before they had problems before?

10 years later, I get an email. I'm in a last. I'm actually in the last, I remember. So clearly I'm in the last guy to put my email, It's this girl. I don't know if you remember me, but my body wants me to lie. I knew who she was. I haven't seen her in ten years. I'm so, so, so, so so much. Her mom about you prophesied over me and just so, you know, I got married, she's not maybe 25.6. I got married, we had her first child was born with severe autism. Severe autism.

Cuz it's like someone kidnaps your child but the body, they leave the body. My son sits in the backyard and eats dirt.

It is truly bent the darkest and saddest time of my life. And those words. The God, spoke to me. Are the only thing that gives my husband and I any hope when he said, I will be your worker outer. We are clinging to that is the only thing that keeps us going.

And you know, we think we hear a word from God. We think there's what else. I'm hiding the rest from you. Is everything else. I should go to the doctor said time with what how what's my dark and said time. Explain it to me. Imagine if God had given me. Three extra words on that prophecy. I see you're going through a dark and sad time with your child. Three words. More. I want more information, one more. Okay. This with your child, go to go through a dark and said time with a child

Affected her life. Maybe she would have never gotten married. Or maybe she got married and said I don't want chili. I just don't want any kids. And yet, God hid that from her. Because he wanted her to focus on. I will be your work around her, I'm I'm in charge and I will work this out. so, bringing life out of death. Leave her alone, she's a bitter distress. The Lord has hidden it from me and has not told me. And then she said that I asked my lord for our son, didn't I ask you to do not deceive me and he said to get his eye. All right, type your garment and take my staff in your hand and go. And if you meet anyone do not greet them and if anyone greet, you don't reply and lay my staff on the face of the child to staff represented his authority position. Tie rod and thy staff comfort me to bring comfort. And the mother and child said at the Lord lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you. So, he arose and followed her. He hates, I went on ahead, late the staff on the face, the child, but there was no sound or sound or sign of life was just like comfort. I rather say first of all, that first comes our soul, you can't get in a place of receiving, unless you get in a place of comfort and God is our comforter. Guess what thing ding, ding ding. Ding, who's got the name comforter? Holy Spirit, the holy spirit, is our comforter. Why do you think that's his nickname? Cuz we need comfort. I'm a comfort creature. I'm about you. I I actually confess it to God all the time. I get done praying. I go in. That was just for my own Comfort Comfort creature. I like comfort. That's okay. I'm going to send you a comforter then and he will guide you. Jesus said,

So when they returned to meet him, he told the prophet. He said, the child has not awakened. 43021, Elisha came to the house. He saw the child lying dead on his bed, so he went in and shut the door behind the two of them and prayed to the Lord. Then he went up and laid on the child impartation. There's, there's something about the prophetic and impartation to impart. Mix to make a deposit. And so we have, we have a Biblical technology, this given to us. Not only here in the Old Testament that actually carries into the New Testament, what will take all the laying on of hands? So that's one of the doctors in Hebrews 6, it talks about the doctor, the doctrine, the teaching, and the practice of the laying on of hands. It's a spiritual technology. There's a new Partition. Just invented that God, God, made that technology. And it's it's still alive today, the laying on of hands that's righteous lay hands on no, man. Suddenly, it's something that God has to instill that we do. And he, trotted Elijah to go and lay kind of child that creepy. I will shut the door to the correct. People would not approve of, so, He want to be laying the child, putting his mouth on his mouth, his eyes in his eyes, and his hands on his hands. It's all symbolic.

NSU, stretch himself upon him, the Flesh of the child became warm, he got up again and walked once back and forth. In the house, went up and stretch himself upon him, the child's sneeze seven times, God bless you and the Child open his eyes and then he summoned to his, I said, call the shunammite, so we called her. And when she came to him, she said, he said, pick up your son, she came and fell at his feet to the ground. She picked up her son. It went out. Wow. Bringing life out of a death experience, you know, we all suffer different kinds of Lost. Heart of life with a loose friends were to lose loved ones. We say that back by lost. A loved one is part of life. But can I challenge you Christians if you're Christian we we should have the best attitude. We should have the best language around. Yes, we're sad, we Comfort one another. But in the end people, hopeless people need to know what you're hoping in. Young this Mortal life is so short. Why? Why she calls it a breath. How long is your life? Your life. Breath Vapor done compared to Eternity. And we don't I don't think we talked about it while we don't think about it. Well, and we need to have the same hope.

That's our relationship with God, the ultimate relation of the ultimates thing in this whole story is a relationship with God. That ends in bringing life out of death. I tell you something else kind of morbid, but true, we're all going to die. Can I have a, do I get a discount on what I paid for this thing? This is like not what I came for organic coffee in just a minute. So I love working with churches. I want churches to grow white, as long as heaven and hell are a reality. We have to, we have to keep Gathering people. We have to get the people around him. Why? Because, heaven and hell are real. You're more real than the room you're sitting in. It's an eternal reality is just too easy for Hollywood and Netflix and everything else to push and make it a fantasy. It's a reality. So We need to be able to talk about it. The greatest event ever to take place on Earth and it's coming. Easter Sunday is coming. Y'all be talking about y'all be inviting your friends if you don't invite anybody to anything, they've done surveys and we all we know the two greatest your Christmas and Easter but Easter is I think there's going to be a new Hunger this Easter. I just sent it with all these revivals and things happening.

God forbid, you might even say I'll buy you lunch, but you know that my respect no one is it. I used to bribe my kids to memorize scripture. I pay them to memorize scripture, we paying for other stuff, cleaned. The room, here's a impound, you know, but memorize scripture. Are you all right? It's like, you know what? I'm going to reward you. That's good work. Anyway, it was for somebody right there. So

let me just finish with this.

What's 4 *, what's 11?

Okay, let me, let me, let me just finish with this where we at balancing doctrinal, diet and error. We are living in the incredible time of information overload. Write the internet's wonderful. We all love it but now it's like it's too much. Somebody turn it off and it's never going away to the point. We don't have a i artificial intelligence and we're just getting So let me just take this last little portion of this chapter chapter 4. Verse 38, Elijah. Give me good to go. There was a famine in the land and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him. And he said he was serving set. The large pot on the band boil stew for the sons of the prophets and one of them went out in the field together, herbs and found a wild Vine and gathered from it. In his lap full of wild gourds and came and cut them up and put them in the pot of stew. Not knowing what they were interesting. They poured out some for the men to eat, but while they're eating of the student cried out, oh man, of God, there's death in the pot. Poison in the pot. We're feeding ourselves stuff off the internet and somebody sent me this link. And when I do, and we're just eating stop and realizing, I was poison. We're out Gathering wild information. Wild theology. There's wild theology out there. Let me tell you there's movements going on almost unbelievable. I'm just going to say it, I guess. Being recorded. I don't care. It's on the internet red letter Christianity. Yeah. We're like we only we only believe the red letters of Jesus. Just about everything else. Are you kidding me?

Can't trust the rest. So we just don't wear red letter Christians of black letters or not. I think there's such crazy theology floating around out there. Everything he's been doing this a long time. I mean yeah, the Bible's full of attack Paul had to deal with the Galatians, write his letter to the. Galatians was all about an attack on the gospel. The gospel is still being attacked, and there's better tools to attack with today than ever call. The internet and information overload is poison.

They found wild vines and wild gourds and now there's death in the pot and I could not eat it and he said, then bring flour or meal. Bring bring the word. so, the prophet had to counter false Doctrine with a word. Brings on flower and he threw it into the pot and said, pour some out for the men today and that they may eat it and there was no harm in the pot. So the antidote to the poison is going back to the apostles Doctrine and profits are always necessarily known as being Dr. Late but there's a lot of the poison comes from these fake prophets and false Apostles, false prophets and false teachers. There were warned about the scripture. And so,

Turning to unknown food sources in a time of famine when people are desperate.

Which is what hunger that's why I'm saying there is a true hunger for God, but there's people going to try to satisfy it. With wrong things. That's part of why people are turning to drugs and alcohol and all kinds of stuff. Why they're hungry. They are in pain, they're hungry, but they're turning to Wild food sources. That turned out to be poisonous. And don't go to false doctrines. That's why Cults are still thriving so it was a lysosome. Put the prophetic in put in a time when people are searching and his discernment and so,

this all happens because of his predictions that came Go back. So I'm just going to end with the beginning of chapter, 8 or 4:1. Sorry.

Skip / 22. Chapter 8, the first person. There was going to pick it up later on. He had restored to life. arise and depart with your household and sojourn wherever you can for the Lord has called for a famine and it will come upon the land for 7 years only to say,

It's God, that sets these things up. Set up Hunger. And I believe what's happening right now. God has called for a famine if God calls for fame and how do you pray You say taken away? You say I rebuke you in the name of Jesus, you, excuse me, I'm the one that called for the famine. How do you pray when there's a famine and God called
