It's because I put it up.

You have no that's good.

So let's let's pray before we going to do it cuz I really want Papa to speak more than me, right.

Hold your hands up with me one more time. Say Jesus, I receive everything you have for me speak to me move through me. Thank you for transformation. All right. So we've been talkin about worship there when we started it. We started with five questions. Why were we created? What is worse up? Why worship what is worship for and how do we worship? Those were five questions that we started with and it's the diving for us to understand. What what is the whole thing that we found out from the first lesson that we were created to be loved by God. I love very well. I do a lot of times we think know I was created to worship nah, dude. Worship is a byproduct of loving him. If there is no love for him, there's no Workshop.

If you have not experienced Christ love personally, do you want worship and let's just be real man. You'll come to church. You'll sing some songs. You'll say yeah, we did we did this religious ritual thing and you'll go home like that. That was good it really let me just be honest. I'll be a hundred percent honest with you guys. You'll be like hurry up and let's get to the word, you know.

You understand what I'm saying, man that heart issue. The reason why you do like hurry up and let's get to the word is because worship has nothing to do with you.

Worship has everything to do with pouring out to God has nothing to do every other part of a Sunday service is about you except for worship.

Are you following me? My God don't need me to teach him. God don't need preaching. Don't even offering. Come on. Think about this with me. You were adopted. Hey Lisa. I want you to know. God don't even need your Bible reading. Need to follow me here. Because all those things are for you.

The only thing that's for God is worship.

Someone called someone I'm telling you the truth. Everything else is centered around the people of God and not God. And so what happens is we focus more so on people than we do God and then we become so speaker since it is that we lose the power the anointing even the demonstration of the spirit of God.

Because when we want to do is create a community that feels comfortable not a community that knows God.

What is the cost to do a worship it has everything to do with workshops? Because it only happens out of the Overflow of your heart. Like if your heart isn't in love with him, you're not going to

But I don't care how many songs do you sing? I don't care how many times you stand and sit up or hold your hands up if you're not in love with him. It is all pointless.

Could you imagine being in a relationship with someone and the whole time while you're in a relationship? You're just like man I got to do this. You probably some of you guys so that way when your wife asked you to go shopping, right?

Do what I got to do this. Maybe your wife feels that way when you dragged her to the football game again.

It flows two ways. What's inside you're doing it for gradually a lot of times worship is centered around while we got to do this again. We're going to staying again and where is your heart connection to him?

See you were created to be loved and love well by God and out of the Overflow of Love produces natural admiration and affection.

You let someone take care of you for a little bit and you look man. I really like that for tomorrow because they're pouring out kick to me.

Just a replay real quick. We are created to be loved to be known to be understood. There's one thing to be loved and it's a completely different thing to be understood in that right. Something about when someone understands you. But you guys ever have a friend that really got you and so you guys are going out and did you were thinking the same thing? You know what? I'm in the gym, seriously real talk when I'm at the gym. One of my favorite used to work out with is Justin. Justice Whitney had to do about lifting pretty much the same other areas. He's stronger are there is I'm stronger with you if we totally get each other when we're lifting.

And because of that we're like jimbros. And so when he's not there, I'm not there. The Bromance is off.

Why do we love lifting together man? But there's something about do you have this understanding with each other? Finally, it's just to have identity to have authority that perfect to become part of God's family. This is why you were created a warship is a byproduct of all those things.

Worship is where we get to tell God. We love him. It's not so much about what God can do for me. It's worth. I love you regardless of what you do or don't do.

No one that's foreign to us because we're used to love based on conditions. But we know people love us if we do a D&C but if we don't do those things that no love comes you guys know what I'm talking about. Maybe you grew up where it wasn't until you got all your chores done to your parents Express that you're loved. Maybe you drop in a different household where love was never even on the table. If it's Russian, it was a bunch of work. It was a bunch of doodoo and gay But a lot of times in your life with Christ, we based the same way we grew up with him, and we're so focused on doing. Instead of just being loved.

Where's the place we tell God we love him?

Could you imagine being married and you just tell your spouse? I love you.

How do you say honey? I love you. Once you cooked me that meal. And it better be seasoned good.

Do we're not eating boiled chicken.

Who prayed for you later?

There wasn't a job. But seriously if you only tell someone I love you after you do something. Yes or no? Got it all.

It's not love at all. All it is is as long as you perform to my standard you're pleasing to me, but the day you don't perform to my standard.

Hello, hell breaks loose.

Worship song We Tell God we love him regardless of how is been acting regardless of how a week then going to have anything going on in my life where I get to tell God. I love you. And it's amazing when you get to do that, but that's why I don't street that works. You can go for hours. I'm chilling.

Do. Chilling it man? I'll still in the presence of God. I'm heading there with him. Man got whatever you want to do. I'm cool with I'm just using to you and letting you flow the way you desire because in that place is where he really when we really get an Embrace from him.

I want to look at scripture now and Isaiah 29:13. Don't you understand that some people just go through the motions of it and we totally missed out on the connection with them because we don't understand it's out of love and the fact is if if I worship is low if our own heart worship we got is low. It's the fact that we haven't receive a great love from him. Are you only receive that love let me be real with you you do not receive that love by reading all day long.

Some people think I'm going to go and read all day long and receive love from God.

I told you this whole time if I write my wife a letter by give her a letter and she reads it and that's all she has do. We really have a relationship? Come on, man. If I give you a letter and say this is what you have it expresses how I feel about you and that's it. And after that I'm not talking to you no more. There's no connection, but keep reading that paper over and over. So you're feeling down go to the letter you read it you like? Okay. I don't know about you guys, but it dude. It's it's in safe essential for your Christian Life to have an encounter with God on a regular basis.

What time I don't know about that. I can't.

It is essential for children to have encounters with their parents. Yes or no? But you know, I'm looking at little packs, right and it is essential for him to have encounters with Mom and Dad to have healthy development. Not even when were old dude. healthy development But even when we're older and we're out we have our own family. Is it still essential to have connection with Mom and Dad? Yeah. Do something awesome about being the other day on the phone. He's like, what are you doing that? Why is it warm out here changing the brakes on this car? And I started thinking about all the times you showed me how to do it. And now I'm calling you to let you know I'm changing brakes and we can have a conversation about this. It came from something that my pops built into me from the past. That I carry now with me in the present that is now giving me another way of communication to him. Because when he's gone, he's gone and then what will we do then? What do people do when people pass a visit gravesites still longing for an encounter?

Are you guys following me or just way too much right now?

The problem is if there's no base of encounter, then there's really no base of a heart connection.

Like when you got born again, didn't you all have an encounter with the Lord? But Jesus became rude to you. If you just believe because someone told you to then the person that can tell you not to believe talked you out of it.

No one was sad that a lot of college a lot of kids. They were groping Christian homes, and then they would go off to college and guess what their Professor who was brilliant but dude completely brilliant. Talk them right out of their Christian faith.

The epidemic grow in the 90s and it's still going on even worse today because now they added gender confusion.

Until the problems that it isn't the problem that you kids are raised in a Christian home. Now. The problem is it was a lack of a encounter in connection with God. Paul said I didn't come to you with Elegance you speech. I can't see you demonstrating the spirits power that your face rest on the wisdom of man. What is your favorite restaurant on what man says or The God, you know? He said he said not with the wisdom, but with the power of God to your faith is built on him. I honestly think the lack of relationship the lack of encounter the lack of connection is why I'm so many people have turned out away from the face. It's because there's no encounter in their life. Like dude, I can tell you what God showed me like 2 weeks ago. I can tell you what he told me this week. Dude that costed encounter with him is what energizes your want. Yes. We need to read his words because this is why if you hear him speak now, he won't speak outside of the conversation. He already had.

So if you don't know the conversation, he already had you can be easily misled. What's the conversation already had it's in the word in the Bible is when you read in the books, but you have to understand that he wants to speak to you today on the issues that are coming out of your life in a personal way because God is very personal.

He's not personal. How can your worship ever become personal?

It won't dude. It won't heal your way for a congregation assemble to have a little moment of Goosebumps and then go home, and I'm not against God Goosebumps. What would I am against it? If we're just doing this for this momentary what I don't know what kind of church maybe 3 hours right? I think the normal is an hour and a half. 3 hours, and then that's it. And that's the only encountering connection I get with God if that there has to be something more man. Jose I said this And the Lord said for as much as the people draw near me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but remove their hearts and Minds far from me and their fear and reverence for me are a commandment of men that is learned by repetition without any thought as to the meaning.

Go to these people the army with their mouths their lives, but what's missing? Portsmouth do doing all the right activities

did you know people can do the right thing in the wrong way?

In a relationship is okay. So husband and wife stuff, right? You guys are in a relationship and maybe your wife asked you to take the garbage out and do something and you don't do it then finally you take it out.

and the attitudes are does any married man know what I'm talkin about or am I the only one that does ever do do that? And then I need to repair right now, you know. Then we're taking that word that you gave really repair.

Will check it out you ever do it with the wrong heart? Or maybe your wife sucks dude, or maybe your spouse like I really want to do this. Do you want to go with me? I really want you to come with me and you're doing you're going with them, but you the whole time you're there. You're so disconnected.

You can do the right thing. I still don't have a connection just so you can be in church and you can sing all the right words. You can do all the right structure and still not have a connection Jesus when he walked on Earth. There was a whole group called the Sanhedrin for the religious teachers of that day pay you the Torah which are the first five books of the Bible. They had it memorized. But when Jesus being God In the Flesh

they have the right words. They were doing the right service. The Priestly garments and they made extra rules on. Are they couldn't even connect to Christ? Because the heart is what matters more to God God is more concerned about your heart. And what did your rituals? Let me say that God is so much more concerned about your heart. The problem is that we're not concerned about our hearts. Weren't you concerned about trying to look good and hold everything together. So people look at it this A. They look like they got it goin on. But God wants your heart. He wants a relationship with you because in that relationship is where transformation takes place.

How do you say that? God is more concerned about a relationship with you then transforming you.

Don't let that sit for a moment.

God is more concerned about a relationship with you then transforming you.

You imagined it. We're going to talk relationships so much cuz it's what it's based off. Could you imagine?

I'll take Austin I use Austin right now your eyes. Are you cool with that? Dated you guys Austin dating.

There it is. Now. She's turning red.

You knew it. Well, he had his fill and didn't he anyways. Austin imagine video with this girl and the only reason why he's with her is because he's like, oh this is going to be perfect because I'm going to get with her and I'm going to change everything about her.

How many people think Austin with the counseling?

Who are you with right now or getting angry like dude?

Maybe it's the other way around maybe she sees this guy and she said he'd be perfect. But if he change this this and this and maybe I'm the one to do it my man back. There's already shaking his head. No red flag.

Do you understand with. He's more concerned about your heart and a connection with him? The transformation comes naturally based on the connection, but he's not out just to say I want you all to change he wants a connection with you the problem with Israel in the wilderness. They kept complaining because they lost the connection with them. They were more connected to the Egypt their path and they were with the god in the present who delivered them out of Egypt.

Are you connected to? What are you drawing by?

Show me so many times we're living. We're living out of places of women do this in our hearts. We're living out of self-condemnation, you know, the biggest thing that stops Believers from actually Experiencing God self-condemnation. You're so condemning themselves. How can your heart even be close to God's hand when the minute you start worshipping everything you ever did wrong pops up. the only one that ever happened to How many people understand what I'm saying Okay, so let's be real. Talk back in your head and now you're throwing on the stuff that you're like.

And that is totally not tongues.

Do you know why? Why is my heart removed from him when I'm doing all the right stuff haven't liked talking to someone but still your heart's not in it. You don't even have a clue how to get your heart in it. beautiful stylist You know how to put your heart in it. Let me tell you that one is the real life. It is not up to you.

If it's up to you and you have to be your own God.

It's not up to you. It is not up to you to encounter God. It's up to God to encounter you let me stay this way for parents. You have a child. Let me help you guys. It is not up to the child to build a relationship with their parents. It's up to the parents to build a relationship with their child.

Come on, dude. How's the newborn going to build a relationship with the only thing they're thinking is I need food and I need change and I need sleep and somebody better help me do it.

I don't care who it is. Someone better do it.

So it's up to the parent to build that relationship with the child and as a bill through nurture through teaching. Do discipline discipline is not Faking It means disciples. It means to train training. all relationships bore out Any desire to be connected to their parents, let me help someone cuz dude. I have a friend who drove with them. He was adopted. He grew up with his adopted mother, but guess what happened. He turned about 1819. And guess what? Do you started? Just two she decide to go looking for? He went looking for his mom and dad. Why? Because in a child, there's an inward desire to have a connection to their parents.

Just like you being children of God. There should be an inward desire to have a connection with your father in Heaven. And if they're eating what I said connection, I don't need based off of you trying to perform and do the right thing.

I need a connection based on who he is and his goodness and him says, you know, I love you. Why don't you just come to me I'll take care of you. I'll see if things in your life that you don't even expect me to do. But all I want you to do is just sit and chat with me for a bit.

We make this Christian thing so flipping hard.

Who made it so hard? Are usually the people who make it hard for the people who lack what I'm saying?

You're making it hard because they don't have a connection. Why did the Pharisees and Sadducees add extra rules? God games I want to show you it man.

The rules upon the rules God gave and the reason why is because they didn't have a connection so they said well, we don't have a connection. Anyways, maybe if we do the more we'll have a connection.

Never heard the term sometimes more is less and sometimes less is more. But I didn't figure that out.

Start working harder in Jesus like dude Taylor these like bro, you guys you guys are really messed up and they're sitting there looking at Christ like no. No, we we know the law where from our fathers Abraham. We don't know who your daddy is. Jesus is like God's my daddy. He did. Well, maybe that's the type version in the King James that says before Abraham. I am what you were saying God's my daddy and they freaked out.

Oh, absolutely this look at it in the New Testament. Now. It says this and Matthews Matthews 15 7 through 9 You Pretenders Hypocrites truly did Isaiah prophesy for Lovett of you when he said these people draw near me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts hold off and are far away from me. Listen to this is great uselessly. Do they worship me for they teach the doctrine and commands of men.

Oh, that's rough. Jesus like useless man.

They were focused more on the ritual. They were focused and they're arguing over you shouldn't should you have an organ or no organ in church?

What the weather. Emoji emotion we knew or should we stand to worship?

black Journal Flags bro, Help Me Maybe Helms or no hands and this begins to be the focus of worship, and that's a clear at sign that you know, your heart's not connected to Papa. truly not Why don't like that, there's too much guitar in it. We need to get the guitar in the drums away and just do this thing.

With no music and they argue about this stuff dude. I don't think in the whole time is thank you, son. That's my boy

appreciate you Hey, do you have to put them on the spot? Because he came up here dude. This is trippie man to my son's been prophesying over people. Like really trippy stuff and I'm telling you trippy stuff. Like it's been great. But he's just like hey this person needs to know, this is Miss Daddy and it's accurate. I'm like, bro.

It's so cool watching that happened cuz you know the beauty of it. I didn't force him or make him work to get him to try God just decide to have a relationship with him by himself. Who would have thought that was the way to do it? Let God have a relationship with your children up by fours, but because God big enough to grab his heart and when he sees God moving in the parents life. He's like I want some of that. I want you to understand that when God moves in your life and make people say I want some of that you ever cook some really good in the house. Like Zack's going to be making brisket soon.

Cuz I promise he is. I don't be like Zacks that smells good. I want some of that people always want something that looks good and is appealing and I'm not just talkin Leslie. I want to talk to people always wanted Jesus. It was the people who wanted position and rule did not want him. I understand that that was all this have to do with worship everything, bro. Do you really want God to come in the midst of your worship? Because in the wilderness Israel said we want God we want God Moses and then God decides to show up and he brings his pillar and it's clouding thunder right in the middle of the up a meeting around the mountain and everyone freaked out and said, we don't want that. They did. They send Moses you talk to God you be our profits. We don't want that. That's too much. Truck freaks me out. No, I'll have no problem telling you. God freaks me out.

I didn't say. Creeps me out. I said he freaks me out. Right, bro. He's gone. Play some of the stuff he doesn't says and what I read on my phone my God, he's like yeah, I do that.

Commands of Madden listen to commands a man can never bring you close to God.

If Miss Commandments brings you close to God, then that's your savior. Not Jesus.

Let me do it. Let me see it this way. If Nan's Commandments keep you with God then that's the Holy Spirit not Holy Spirit. The problem is we're focused on trying to fulfill a requirement that Jesus already accomplished. Which means we can't even accept or live in Freedom. Time into it a little more Ezekiel. 3331 I love it. Did they come to you as people come and they sit before you as my people and

and I hear the words you say but they will not do them for with their mouths. They so much love but their hearts go after and are set on their eye doctor is Greed for gain. Another place is like dudes you like your lord Jesus say if you love me keep my Am I not CBI? He told Peter that you're absolutely right. He did say dude that comes second. Do you guys understand? You're right. I want to First Command. You're right. He said Peter. Do you love me feed my sheep? Because the natural response to loving God. It's pouring out of the Next Generation.

The natural response to loving God. It's pouring out on the Next Generation. I mean after you have after you have did what he said if you love me keep my Commandments and burdensome and what's God's Commandments? But listen, what is the commands of God?

Love God whom we will simplify love God with everything you are. Love been allowed that love to love yourself and then love others like that. Very simple, and then finally the last command you ready Joe spread the love. Teaching them everything I talk to you and I'm with you even to the ends of the world. I guess I simplified it 100% because the problem is man we liked over complicated when it's just simply about sharing God's love and then growing in a place of love. This is the whole long letters for filled as you walk in love. It's all for film and you don't have anything else to do. But if I'm going to walk and Agape the love of God, do you understand how that would affect how I treat people? I noticed you never heard of a defective how I treat myself.

And I'll do that place that I'll just flow but then what rule can you give me? What lol. Could you lay on me? You wouldn't have anyone you wouldn't have anything to lay on you. You know, why because the Lord's burnt his his Commandments are not burdensome. You can't do nothing with that. And that's what they had a hard time with Jesus and that's why when he was on his way and they started worshiping God and he threw out, he's he's like dude he's going to stop this cuz if we did the rocks and started crying.

bro The next response of a love committed heart to God is worshipped. It is simple Workshop. It is adoration. It is devotion towards him and it's not through ritual. It's a love heart connection to God. If I like this why why am I telling you it's a love heart connect to the gods. It's it's really important that you understand this. It's also found in 2nd Chronicles. So good 1619. Are you ready for this Katie? It says Through The Eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show himself strong and behalf of those who hearts are blameless towards him you have done. Lee in this therefore you have wore you now on on from now on you shall have wars. Now we have to look at this properly. He's talking to a King and contact you talk to this King and he's like bro. Why didn't you come to God but if we actually use the scripture that you understand the principle behind it. It says the Lord is looking to show himself strong and people the war was to be strong in Benjamin. He wants to be strong. He wants to come with us to be strong in bed.

Rob wants to be strong for you. That's your heart has to be fully. Mine. That means I'm not doing anything wrong when your in Christ Jesus as your condemnation. Yes, or no. I was so that makes you blameless done that. Thank you.

That is it was that simple to put two things together? Your blameless geranium. So the Lord is looking for you and look that's what he's looking for looking for hearts or fully heads. How do you know if your horse fully is how do you know that God's looking for you? Are you ready? How do you know God's going to show himself strong in you? You guys are so good.

I was in the message. Hold on one second. I put it also in the message that like what it said to you.

God I love how the message says it to says that God is always on alert constantly on the lookout for people who are totally committed to him.

You were foolish to go for human help when you could have had God's help. Now. You're in trouble one round of war after another. What's the message said it?

Why don't you just come to me? Why don't you? You know what? You know what I found out about Believers are getting this is not to offend anyone, but I found out Believers like to talk about God not talk to God.

Believers life to talk about God and not talk to guys. We like to get together in our Christian groups. We like to gather and talk about God instead of talking to God.

proof I don't know about you guys.

Does the awesome Wonder? Dude, that's actually normal Christianity. It's abnormal look for a really do is add normal. Russ and sit around and talk about God instead of talking to him in the contact and when we talked about him, it's in the context of relationship not in the context of God is on the dissecting table. We're going to cut them up and pieces so we can digest this day.

You don't study to show yourself approved for God's sake. It's for yours. You study so that you know what he says so when you're speaking with them and talking with them and communing with them if he gets to be based off of the conversation already spoken and you already know where you fit in. That's why you can go boldly before the throne of grace. Did you hang your head down in church is so weird to God. I hope somebody today and it's so weird to come in his presence and just be like I'm miserable person. Come before his presence with sayings.

Yes, they made a song about that but he was in an 80s 90s. Yeah, you just remember it. Oh, yeah, I remember it.

be out here you already oh, yeah, they can see that in the Life in your hands now and then What is so hard to do for us to be like well, we just here and it's just gone. I'm just going to do this thing. Hopefully the words good today, and I'm going to go home. That's so weird to him. but I don't know about you, but when the presence of God shows up or when the Press let me say it for believers when the presence of God is released because where does God live we're so could it be the reason why we feel God so much as cuz we're actually opening ourselves up and releasing him who's already there. That means I don't have to wait to be here on Sunday to do it. I can be at home singing. I'm a child of God and my heart open in the presence of God, just because over take me. Who would have thought that Jesus died for such a thing like that?

All back in the worship, man. Putting John Jesus says that she says this is what the father is looking for. And I love how to keep ET said it. It says from here on worshipping the father will not be a matter of the right place. But with the right heart for God is a spirit and he loves to have sincere worshippers who worship and adore him in the realm of the spirit and in truth.

Now the other King James it says for the father seeking such to worship Him in spirit and truth, but you got to understand something here. It's so good. He's looking for people who have a right heart. As you are worshipers who adore him. That is not a duration based on rules and regulations and it's not adoration based off of control and demanding it if I have to demand my kids to love me. Is that love? Well, they better respect me. Is that real respect? Come on, man. Be real with me, but there was a bully in school or someone like that. And you all the kids will be home. I got the police come and they moved out the way do they really respect him or just move out the way so they didn't get hurt.

So they don't get hurt. They don't really like them do they? They just moved out of the way. So they're not coming to the end of the result of what he wants to do or she wants to do or maybe be the end result of the the harmful words that they can speak.

To God that you looking for people who can move past the whole aspect of I'm God, I could crush you into a place and I love you and I want a relationship with you and that place there's something that burst that's where worst job. That's where worship verse from.

Do let me tell you something. It's written in Scripture that every need is going to every tongue will confess. So that means people who are believers will do it for that also means all believers will do it, right because this is every needs going to Bow before Jesus ride. So let me ask you do the other ones who accepted Jesus they're doing are they doing it? Because they have to be just doing it because we get to but the ones you don't know him are they forced to do it? Yeah, so God's not into your Force worship. He's already know that's coming. Anyway, he wants to know do you have a heart connection with him? And it has to be in spirit and truth and truth or I Like Houses the realm of the spirit to do we saying about where the spirit of the Lord is your wife. Oh my goodness.

Lord I need help. I need real help. I need you to send some angels more anointing of your spirit. I need you to Jesus.

River Spirit of the Lord is there is

He said you got to worship Him in spirit. Okay, so there's nothing to have freedom right just want let's be real. There's one thing that freedom dude. I don't understand what you're free.

damn

home run yes. Hundred percent but you said what you said because of fear. The reason why there's a lack of freedom because it feared listen when God says this, how do I know? That's true what she says and the Lord says in his word. He says that I didn't give you a spirit of fear. But the first thing I gave you was power I gave you a second mind. I gave you love power Love Story power love and a sound mind.

Yeah, Diana.

That we cannot hear you. So I'm coming to you. You're trying your best.

Could you pass it to her?

Siri worship this picture came to me, you know, if there's an expression that you might be familiar with don't put God in a box don't limit God, but actually we he lives inside of us the Holy Spirit or the Holy Spirit Jesus lives inside of us the box is what he needs to break out of he needs to break. We need to not put him in a box inside of us, but let him burst out and flow out of us from the inside out tomorrow. Yes, you're absolutely right. You're absolutely right. The understand that's what Freedom looks like like men Freedom literally looks like a king of Israel. Whose name is David Wright in this is Old Testament David. He's the king of Israel. The Ark of the Covenant is going back into Jerusalem. He tried to do it the first time. So now David he's bringing the kids to Jerusalem and he's the king of Israel. You guys got the highest paid position in the whole nation. And David, he's like okay, we're going to take a couple steps this time. And every time you think we're going to slaughter an animal as an offering to God cuz that's what they had to do back in the day. So David because no one's dying this time. Seriously. No one's dying this time and didn't get so excited. He's taking his death and all the sudden. What does the king begin to do? What does David begin to do? Play the begins to take his clothes off. No, David literally starts dancing clothes came off, right? This is why we don't want to share the story what made it so freaky to people and why was his wife like dude, that is so undignified.

I'm going to say something very strong and I want you to hear it cuz it comes from my heart and it is usually people who are bearing and the spirit trying to tell you how you also worship.

You're not burying anything. Do what they want to do is try to control the worship. I'm not being real. So Davis wife's a call my gosh Davis Dancing and what made it so freaky was usually the women went out and dance first. Do you have the king literally dancing before the Lord in frolicking? That's the picture that comes to my mind. You're running through a field and Frolic. It's so much fun. Who's done that it's so fun, but you never found him until you guys got to try it. You don't know was looking cuz it does look weird.

Maybe you should invite people to look you here free then.

Put the keys dancing in the street a large on him. He's just sitting there worshiping the Lord and his wife goes David you look so undignified you dance maiden and David Sykes. I will look even more on dignified than this to Worship the Lord. And what happened was and it says in scripture after that moment. She lost intimacy with David. That means he didn't go David no longer had intimate relationships with her. He basically put her away as soon as she didn't have any kids Barron. And the reason why I need you to understand that when you start mocking or tell trying to control people who worship the god. It makes you Barren cuz you're touching something that God the doors. Let me say you're touching something that God like the who are you to tell they can express love to me. Looking for people who have freedom to worship in a way. They desire before the Lord whether they're jumpy dancing crying or even Valley laid prostrate. It doesn't matter as long as it's done to the Lord. The truth. Let's look at truth cuz there's another part of the realm of the spirit and in truth the truth. the truth of who God is and the truth of who you are because the problem with that person was they didn't understand when Jesus use the scripture and caught the woman didn't have a clue who she was worshipping. She was just doing it because it was tradition because she was part 2 and part and she was from another culture and so she wasn't Samaritan and so she's like you Jews worship in Jerusalem, we worship on top of the mountain and Jesus like dude the day is coming where don't matter where you worship at. Because the father's desire those who worship Him in spirit and Truth. And that's what God's looking for. He's going to show himself strong and those whose hearts are fully his and that they worship Him based off of love in spirit and in truth, man. What do you do with someone like that?

You're back in the day. They were on those people out of church.

I'm not being mean. I'm just being honest. like bro Man, I seen some rough stuff. Please don't just get excited to start waving their hands. Excuse me. We don't do that here.

Oh, you mean you guys don't allow us to express love for God can we do it at the football game? Well, yeah, you can do it at the football game, but just not here.

You ever see people give her give her see it's someone's birthday and you start celebrating that person's birthday and then everyone starts singing whether they're on feet or not. I'm talking about it's always that one person who singing that you're like man. blessing board

but we have no problem doing that over a birthday. Do we just celebrate someone but we have a problem doing that when it comes to God.

A sign that we don't understand this whole spirit and freedom thing and worshiping him. Let me tell you this. God's love experience plus our hearts equals worship.

Could you could you?

Jack and Lisa is YouTube vacuum at Lisa Wright And she was trying to get away, but she couldn't resist the raised right there is was on point.

We'll go with that.

But you guys ended up getting married correct? And it was based off of continual experience that led to you guys wanting to live together. Play we understand this in context of relationship. Jesus himself said me and my father will come and make our boat with you. What you saying is will make you a dwelling place where we abide. But it only comes through what? Encounters on like a regular basis. Maybe you showed a better job and drop flowers off. Did you do that?

You dropped something off. I'm moving on you got this.

She got to go there. I love you, too. I want you to understand it's based off of a relationship. You know that right nobody dude, if you get married just to get a listen follow me if you get married just to get married and that's probably not too good. It is it No, that's like that cuz that's not smart know it's not good. You know how many people are trying to force people to worship God that they're not in love with?

Didn't know. They don't love. Actually, there has to be an experience with God's love you got to understand that this is why is foundational.

If you read your Bible, you'll find Jesus had no problem giving people experience is with him.

And every time you'd be with experience and me to be Supernatural. You want to leave that out and you can look through the Gospels? Pick a pick a person. I've always picked a woman that does the woman is talking to you about spirit and truth and the next thing you know, Jesus start saying by the way, go get your husband and I don't have your right because you actually had a couple didn't you how do you know this? You must be a prophecy says he's like a woman.

Jesus literally reveals who he is to her. Is based off of that she runs through the city based off an encounter. She had with Jesus. You see this all through the New Testament even in the book of Acts. You see people having an encounter with God that brought their hearts to him and they begin to worship and have a relationship. I wonder if the base of our worship is still based on an encounter with him.

I'm just going to lay that out there.

Yes, you did.

Yeah.

And when you worship dog, this is a power about worship is not about you. It's about God's and when you're doing that something happens naturally caused this transformative. Something I don't know about you. Have you ever been worse and like you had some stuff going on with the presents the dog begin to release during this communion with God is can you walk out there? And you know, you've been changed, but you don't know exactly where

Thank you, because I don't understand if we're coming in the presence of God. Do you think things are going to change? We have this mentality that I'm just going to his presence and I still got my drunk and nothing's going to happen because I just going to carry it back out here with me bro. That's not real movie with God. But you continue to worship Him and the truth is you get your eyes off your junk. Put the fire on that you get your eyes right off your junk. Can you stop worrying about who's around you the junk you were struggling with you just going to worship and God in that place goes just as love this is lovely and next thing, you know, you just you just get up out of that place in like dude what I'm not what happened to me. But it's based off of an experience with God.

I have like I have been so many and so much worse there with you guys. I'm probably going to end at this point here cuz I know it's getting late. Don't breathe who wants me to ask you? Do you want me to end?

You have a tester here.

So this is really out of my comfort zone but this week I was going through a really rough time and just praying and fasting and interceding for my family and I was just like God I need a word. I need a breakthrough, please like I'm begging you show me and Friday. I went to the thrift store with my son my two-year-old and we found a bike and we brought it home and he was so happy, and he was just riding that thing all over the house. And in that instant God spoke to me and he told me How happy you are to give your son a gift. That's how happy I am when I give you gifts. But it's not based on our performance, but it's all out of love and that just wrecked me and I'm still right from it. But everything that he said today was just like it is true when we come before the Lord and we seek Him He will answer and he will. Come on. Yeah. You know. That's awesome. You know, what's awesome about that?

What's awesome about it is? He spoke with the beauty. Do you realize God Gave You scripture, but he spoke through it out of your life. Who said I guess he spoke through it out of your life. He said you know what you just did for your son and I'll get it.

true picture of 100 Matthew being Evil, you talk to the people back in the day. You being evil know how to give your children good things or whatever. How much more was your father in heaven give you the Holy Spirit. How much more does he desire you to have your family? How much more does he desire to have for you to have the kingdom of God flowing as a natural thing in your life?

He wants it more than we do. My god really wants it more than we do. He wants this thing the flow. Matt I know it was a lot. That's exciting. I'm so happy you shared that.

Cool a lot of times we don't equate that. We don't equate. We are the Quake God speak into it that way but he does seriously.

And when he does stuff like that is for us to know that you were she's connected. He cares about us. Oh, man.

I'll give you just a brief thing of worship versus praise just a brief. Tuesday is like halftime potty race everyone. Cuz who knows the difference between worship and praise.

What was the difference?

The reason for worship and what's the reason for praise and they are two different things but ends in our church culture. We put it all together. What are two different things guys?

I know that we've been talking about worship. But what's praise what's praise? You know, I tell people this all the time and this is really powerful and it's really good for you to understand that because we are made in God's image. We were meant to be praised but never worshipped.

I don't know about that time. That sounds kind of iffy to me.

Do you love you praise your child, don't you? Yeah, we do. We praise your son does a good job swinging that back and around. What do you say great job, dude? Battle boy. You're so more. Awesome. What are you doing? Are you crazy, man? Thank you. You were meant to be praised. Let me say this again. Every human being alive was meant to receive praise because praise is a validation and affirmation. You were always at the receipt and when people don't get that that's where they get depression low self-esteem. I don't like myself. I don't like people.

So you were meant to be praised?

And we were praising another beautiful thing about this is that when we praise God he says he inhabits the Praises of his people so we do if we don't understand the difference between praise and worship. We're going to be like, well. This is intimate. We're going to be crazy but you know worships where we get intimate with God.

Yeah, let's look at that real quick.

worship focuses on who God is that's the focus is who is who is worship has nothing to do with you. It's all about God who he is. He's awesome. He's amazing. He's Mighty glorious. It's all about God.

And God is the only one who's meant to be worshipped.

Jeff thank you. Did you're right because if we look at praise that focus on what God has done. I feel there's a difference and the reason why we put these together can we don't understand but in the Jewish culture, they understood these two things.

When you're crazy and I want you to say you're giving props to Papa. Papa's getting his props, man. I was thinking about this you who created the stars in the universe were praising him for what he's done. You gave yourself were praising him for what he's done and it's so focused on what he's done. Not only what he's done by creating but what he did for us. Make Thanksgiving comes out of praise. the problem is that it's so good. I don't want to leave yet because this is so good. The problem is that the church only stays at the outer court and they don't move into the holy of holies. The problem is that we're comfortable praising God for what he's done, but we don't want to move into a place of worship with him. So we'll sing songs and I love these songs. You pick me up you turn me around. That's awesome. It's a praise song. What worship is when we're moving into an intimacy with him. No, let me see it like this man.

Praise is the wedding day.

Worship is the wedding night.

I might have been a little too much for you guys, huh?

Was that too much for you guys? Is that too much gum? Just listen, man. You guys said what's up? You can't make that reference photo himself has his let me tell you a mystery.

Men love your wife like Christ loved the church and gave himself for a woman. Come on, dude. Why you think you talked in the context of marriage and relationship? I then we say something like that when I don't know it's true worship. Praise is like the wedding day. Everyone's there for worship is when you two are alone. the wedding night An intimacy into me you see and you see into each other until there's such a connection to you. Don't know where you end and maybe again

Walking With Jesus paid for you paid for that type of intimacy with you that type of deep connection to where you no longer see yourself outside of him, but you see yourself within him. And that's the only place where pregnancy can happen.

That's the only place that you've become you become fruitful. Come on Jesus. That is the only place that you become fruitful in your walk with him. It's the reason why you don't have any fruit is because you're not being intimate with him.

Do when your intimate you think life happens naturally answer me with the Lord, he begins to speaking to you and all of you and through you and that's when you know, you're carrying something that you didn't carry before well. like a baby

And next thing, you know, we're call you Prego.

Yes, because you're able to do it. Where was it made? It was shaped in love. Shake your intimacy until the truth is and the Christian Life when we actually get in the place of worship with God. I won't come on man. You got to step out of praise for a moment. I love praise. I love you saving the phrase, but it's one more in the Deep worship. We've got and it's no longer singing about us. This is where you ours just singing. Do you know what I'm talkin about? I always go by and you're in this place with him and maybe you just singing Worthy is the Lamb. Maybe you're not to let me hear you singing and you get lost. Singing to the Lord all about him and let me know you can go to the Heartwood by wow. Do you know your and next thing, you know, I can't wait to do this again. Can't wait to be with you this way again. Bruce all about you that about me. And that's where you because it's just things that a deeper way. I'm telling you something bro. You want to be fruitful you want to really bear fruit for the kingdom that you get in a place of worship with him? You step out and see where something you know why it's hard for Christians to living worship. Don't tell you.

is because we do not know how

we don't know how. We know how to praise but we don't know how to worship because worship gets a little weird. and we don't know how maybe you didn't grow up in a household where worship was a natural thing that was done where maybe maybe you're like I was going to church but we never went to that place because

do you know what's in worship where the gift shows off? I'll tell you a secret the gifts of God have no choice but to show up and worship.

has no choice but to prophetic words are so easy when you're worshipping when you're the worst your birthday come naturally. I do have to say God. Give me a word. You got pregnant with the word to send you? Come on, I'm going to stop right there. This is good. That's so much to share on the difference of praise and worship with you guys because God's going to move it to a different place and expression with them. He's going to like I love what we're doing. I love the song. I love it, but it's learning the difference of witches a moment and the atmosphere that we're going to begin to worship and I get something like why are we talking about the atmosphere because dude and having the atmospheres alive. Alive and God inhabits the Praises of the people of God inhabits our Praises. What does he do in our worship? And that's what I'm leaving you with. All right. I can go in for like two more hours. But I really can't cuz this stuff to my heart man, they don't know about you. But listen after I serve God brought me back from the dead and I got property back from the dead bro. No man, brought me back. God damn it man, then it was because they prayed to my buddy Dean. He died. We didn't talk to him or he died and you don't come back. God brought me back from the dead and the prayers of the people is what matters but they didn't pray he would still be dead. God did it to the fact of the matter is this when I got when I came back and I didn't understand everything at all. But I remember I got to a place in my room and I just begin to worship God and it was like a wrong if I can be honest. It was like around me. I felt this shift in the room and it was like I got into this cuz Coon other spirits and in that place With God all my goodness. I got so messed up. Play coming back from the dead was amazing. But in that cocoon with God's to where the place the first time I ever said this was this is my home. I said this is home to me God's presence is home to me. It's when is presence isn't here. I'm like

you understand what I'm saying? God wants you to be able to make his presents home just like he makes you home.

This Revelation just flowing. Do you know God made you home? He lived in you the question is are you making him home?

Jesus we thank you for your word. We Worship You Jesus you're so cool you're so amazing.
