Amen, Amen, Well, welcome to church once again. You are a
beautiful bunch. Today. We're gonna we're in for a lot of fun.
And before I turn it over to mister Pastor Wolf to lead us into the
word, I want to let you know that August thirtieth, we have a
mission team departing for Uganda. Right so this is our second of the last
Sunday here, but we wanted to introduce the team too, So if you're
from the team, just stand up where you're at right now. We have
nine of us going Joe, Sandy, Sophia, Dale, Rummel back there,
Duanne and I Connie, Dennis. Where Dennis go? I thought I
saw him over here. Oh there's Dennis and Sandy back there. So this
is the team that's going to go and represent We are going to You can
have a seat if you'd like to. We are going to be half of
us, or some of us, are going to be ministering at a pastor's
conference of about four to five hundred pastors. So they're going to be keynote
speak and speaking all day all night. So be praying for both Joe and
Dwayne because that's what they're gonna be doing. Miss Connie over here, she's
gonna be sewing shoes all week like crazy with a sewing machine. They hurt.
She's gonna work with the team of my three sixty project. We showed
you those little shoes that grow two sizes with the children when we put them
on them, So she's gonna be thoroughly immersed in that. And at the
end of our time that we're gonna have a shoe give we're gonna be giving
away a couple hundred shoes. It's just gonna be an amazing time. The
rest of us are gonna go down to Matukula and we're gonna have a medical
project down there. We're gonna do a medical clinic for two days. We're
gonna be leading people to the Lord, working with the pastor down there.
We are going to be passing out medications and doing small things with that we
are able to do down there. We're also wanting to participate in feeding people.
So one three hundred dollars will feed one hundred people for two weeks with
a full protein meal pack, and so we're hoping to be passing out quite
a few of those at different places that we're gonna go. We're gonna go
visit the well that you all paid for this last march to be able to
be put in. It is in, it is functioning, people are drinking
from it. We're going to hold a crusade there and pass out food for
the community. So we're going to gather the community and dedicate it to the
Lord. So we're going to be busy, busy people. We are on
the ground I think eight days total. So I had a dream. Anyway,
it's going to take us some finance to be able to do all these
projects. And so today, as you saw the team that's here, we
are going to give you an opportunity to sew into our projects. So if
you would for me, we gave you this little piece of paper. It
talks about what we're doing. I think it was on your chair when you
came in, correct, So pull that out, take a look at it.
It's got our itinerary on the front. I need you to take this
home, put it by your bedside, put it in your kitchen, and
every day between August thirtieth and September nine, I want you to pull this
thing out, see what we're doing, and I want you to pray for
us. Now in reality, when you're awake, we're asleep. So in
reality, what you're what you're praying for is what we did before and what
we're going to do the next day. Right, it's not that very second.
And maybe when you're praying for us, pray that we're actually sleeping because
it's a pretty quick flip and so we're probably awake all night going. I'm
supposed to be awake right now, but it's dark outside, So pray for
our jet lag and all of that kind of thing too. But please be
with us on this team, Be with us moment by moment, just being
prepared next Sunday when we come, you're gonna pray us out of here.
And then we leave that Wednesday. We have packed up nine suitcases. I
think it is filled with brand new free medical supplies that we're taking over.
So we're gonna, yeah, it's just great. We go and we blow
the place up. We don't just go and look around. We go and
change things. So would you be willing? Would you be willing today to
partner with us? There's four once again, four ways to give. You
can do this by that QR code. You can do it anyway. Just
reach in the front the seat in front of you, grab grab a enflo
But would you be willing to help us today? Ushers, come on forward.
We are getting ready. We have to send money. We've sent some
last week, we have to send it this week so that they can get
stuff purchased for us lined up and on the ground and stage, so that
we can be ready to give this away. So would you partner with us
here today, partner with us around the world, changing lives and in ways
that you will probably never be able to know until we go to heaven.
Right then we're gonna see what we stored up with just our righteous acts and
deeds. Amen, Father and Jesus name, thank you so much for these
people and for their willingness to give, for their willingness to be a part
with us. Lord I thank you for the team. Lord God, I
thank you right now that there's health and wholeness in every single one of us
between now and the moment we land. And Lord God, I thank you
right now that you're just going to keep your hand of safety upon us.
Thank you Lord that this team is not just nine, but it's the entire
body of New Horizon going forward to do things and to put our hands to
the plow in Jesus name. Amen, thank you so much, Thank you
so much for your participation, your willingness. We are ever so grateful.
Amen. Pastor Dwayne, why don't you come on up and lead us in
the word I want live. Let stand up and pray for the word.
We have a week for you to continue to give. So if you want
to be a part of this, we've got so much we want to do
the shoe projects, all of our outreaches. I think our outreaches are like
four hundred and fifty a day or something like that. So if you want
to continue to be a part of this, you can, you know,
you can come online and just go into the mission drop down box or you've
gone to drop down box or whatever it is on sub splash or online or
whatever, and just continue to help us. Also, we're collecting electronics so
they love it if we bring stuff over there. And actually we've got one
church we want to provide symbols for they need a whole symbol set. If
you want to be a part of that, I've been asking you to give
into Restored Life books. So we're having two hundred Break your Chains books printed
and we're taking those with us. Fifty restored life books, we're taking those
with us, one hundred and fifty communion books, we're taking those with us.
And twenty five of the brand new child deliverance books, Set Your Child
Free Book, those are gonna go with us as well. So it's a
brand new book we're just finishing. So that's going with us over there.
So that's like those are tubs and every tub is two hundred dollars to get
there. So it's just money, money, money, money. Say I'm
loaded, I'm overflowing, I'm abounding for every good work. And Jesus Name
and Father, we thank you for your word today, thank you that you
raise us up and that we are we are your ecclesia. We are your
ambassadors of transformation, your ambassadors of reconciliation. And we just we bless the
team today and we blessed this house that together we set our hearts on transforming
the nations and doing our part to represent you and to bring your healing word,
your healing ministry. We give you the praise for in Jesus name,
or may said amen, Amen, Amen, you maybe see yeah, electronics,
I didn't finish that thought. So laptops cell phones, stuff that still
might work even if it's locked. Bring it in because we'll figure out way
to unlock it. If you can strub it, great, strub it before
you bring it in or whatever, and then we'll h they are they are
technically they are not technically challenged over there, so they can unlock your phone,
believe it or not. They'll figure it out. So Joel's phone,
I sent it into Apple, her last phone, and I sent it into
Apple, you know, because they were doing a trade in. So whatever
she's on now, she's on it like an eight or eleven or something.
I don't know if she's on anyway. So I sent in her old phone
to do a trade in thing and Apple sent it back and said it doesn't
qualify. It's a piece of garbage, you know whatever. So I sent
it over there. Pastor Andrew got it working. He's using it today,
so he's having a ball with an iPhone. They figured it out. So
just you know, if you think it might work, get it in this
week so we can get it into the luggage. Get it into the stuff.
Right. So this is connect Sunday, by the way, So it's
Picnic Sunday, but it's connect Sunday. That means we want you in a
name tag. And I'm Dwayne the Bathtub. I'm not Dounding, but that's
yeah, okay, but we want you in a name tag. We want
you to stay for the picnic, like Joe said, and we want you
in a name tag because it's Connects Sunday and they were raptick. We were
doing Raffle, were doing the Rapple tickets back there. So if you have
a Raffle ticket, We're gonna give away prizes at the picnic, so you
gotta stay. And I think the prizes are after the apple pie contest and
we have ice cream for the apple pie, so we will dwell together in
fatness and that's very scriptural. So that's going on. I'm want to talk
about restoration through the church today, and I'm just I'm blessed by you.
I'm proud of all of you and blessed that you're here, and thankful for
every one of you. Joel, and I rejoice over you and your friendship
with this house and your your partnership with for the Kingdom, and your love
for him and all that all that he's doing, all that he represents.
Amen. I've been talking to last several sunnis about restoration and how it's God's
plan to restore mankind and it's God's plan to restore the Earth, and that's
really the macro plan. The macro plan is restoration. And we have our
mission. We are comissioned agents. Our mission is in opposition to another mission,
a mission that took over the planet, a mission that usurped first Adam
and his governance and his dominion over the planet. And so our mission in
Jesus is a mission against that mission. So we are comissioned to destroy the
finish, to partner with Jesus in finishing the work of destroying the works of
darkness, banishing Satan off the planet. And as Jude writes and as Peter
writes, seeing to it that the powers of darkness are locked in chains until
the day of judgment, that's really that's our assignment we are. We're on
this assignment, and so we do both at the same time. We're building
the kingdom and we're destroying the works of darkness. And wherever we don't destroy
the works of darkness, the kingdom won't be built. The kingdom has to
be built. Where we have partner with Jesus to bind the strong man and
to plunder the strong men. So that's that's what we do, and we
don't do it on Sunday. This is the training Center, the equipping center,
this is the Joy Center, this is the family Center, this is
this is so much, but it's not everything. Right. We are the
scent ones. We're sent in the culture we're sent into. And your employment
is one of the coolest ways for you to be sent because you are paid
to be a missionary. Wherever you are, you are a paid missionary.
You're a paid missionary. Have you wanted to be a paid missionary? Sent
by an organization? You are. You're sent by Apple, You're sent by
Microsoft, You're sent by you know, some real estate company, or you're
sent by some organization or the carpenters Union or the Electricians Union or Boeing.
You're sent you're your way is paid to be the ecclesia in the midst of
darkness and to bring kingdom word, kingdom, love, kingdom values, kingdom
principle right where you're at. You're a paid missionary and that fun and that
cool. And so I've been thinking a little bit about the church today because
the church the Church is the instrument of restoration to the earth, the Church
Ephesians three, ten and eleven. His intent was that now through the Church.
His intent was now that through the Church, the manifold wisdom should be
made known to the rulers and authorities in heavenly realms. So the principalities and
powers, the very thing that Paul says in Ephesians six ten through eighteen,
the very thing that we battle with, the thing we wrestle with, the
thing that we feel, the thing that's against the righteousness or the Kingdom of
God or the Kingdom of Heaven. It's through the Church. It's through us,
the ecclesia, the called of God, the set apart of God.
It's through us that the manifold wisdom of God is now being made known.
It's being made known through our words, our prayers, our lifestyle, our
speech. It's being made known through all we represent and everything we do.
We are the ones because we carry Jesus as He carried the Holy Spirit.
We carry His Holy Spirit into everything and everywhere. So now through the Church,
the wisdom of God should be made known to rulers and authorities in heavenly
realms or in the spirit realm according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished.
This was his purpose all alone. This was his purpose all along, that
he would have a people, that he would reclaim the earth, that he
would reclaim mankind, that he would bring. This was his purpose all along,
and its launch began with Jesus, according to the eternal purpose that he
accomplished in Christ. Jesus our Lord. So God shows the Church to bring
the Kingdom of Heaven. God shows the Church to expand the Kingdom of Heaven.
We are the blood bought. We are the set apart. We are
the ecclesia of every region. We're the ecclesia of every region. By the
way, I can't. I'm not the ecclesia in Los Angeles today. Somebody
down there is going to need to do something about that weather that's coming.
Right. So I'm not the ecclesia in San Diego. I'm not the ecclesia
in Cabo San Lucas. I'm not the ecclesia in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania today.
I'm not the ecclesia in Washington, DC. The ecclesia is a regional as
it was in Ephesus, or as it was in the Grecian days, or
it was in the Roman days. The ecclesia is a region expression. God
needs me right here, God needs you right here. It's a regional expression
in every region. The Church represents Heaven on Earth. I can pray over
other areas, I can prophesy over area, other areas, but I get
to represent Heaven on Earth right here, right here, right here. I
get to represent Heaven on Earth. The Church is Heaven's legislators. Matthew six
eighteen through nineteen. I tell you that you are Peter, and on this
rock, I will build my church. You've heard multiple sermons on this.
I won't even I don't want to go into where they were and how important
it was, and how they were actually at the Gate of Hades. They
were actually there, they were actually at a place called the Gate of Hades.
I will build my church, my ecclesia, and the gates of Hades
will not overcome it. And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom
of Heaven. Who has the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven? Yeah,
you do, we do. The Church does. The Church does the Body
of Christ that called out the regional expression in a region of God's people,
of God's set apart. People have been given the keys to bringing Heaven to
earth. We have been given the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. What
would the earth do without the Church? What would the earth when the world
would be happening without the Church? Right now? What would have happened over
this last season in the global reset if the Church hadn't have been standing up
in every region and standing up in prayer, and standing up in action,
and standing up in the prophetic word, standing up to thwart the plans of
the enemy, plans that were actually meant to thwart the growing move of God
and the revival that God is loosing over the planet for a billion soul harvest.
What would have happened if the Church would have said not on my watch?
Did you know it is actually our network director. I don't know if
you knew this, but our network director, the one that we belovedly love
and we give in to every single month without missing a beat. It is
chay On who directs the Harvest International Ministry and Harvest Rock Church who stood up
against Gavin Newsom and the powers in California that went all the way to the
Supreme Court, that actually won a victory for the entire global church in the
United States of America, that churches will not be shut down, that worship
will not be legislated, that the way we worship will not be silenced,
and that the church is free to worship as she desires and needs to that
that, by the way, that lawsuit cost them our our functioning. So
we're under two networks. Were under Shay and World Harvests or Global Harvest Harvest
International. We're also under Bethel, and we partner with both of them.
We given to both, We partake of both, and we yield to both
and glean from both. And and those two are brothers in a ministry called
Revival Alliance. So, but I don't know if you know that that cost
Harvest Strock Church and Shay and everything. That costs them one point three five
million dollars to fight that to the Supreme Court. Now, I want to
just ask you a question, where would that where? Where? What would
have happened if they wouldn't have had one point three five million dollars? Wow,
See, some things, some things well all things we pray for,
but some things we need to add shoe leather and greenbacks. Two that as
we said that there would be breakthrough that accompanies the prayer. Now, the
beautiful joy of that is that when they won the victory to the Supreme Court,
then a part of the victory was all of their legal fees had to
be paid back. That's how I know it was one point three five million
dollars is because they on an award from Gavin Newsome and the State of California
that all of their legal fees had to be paid back. But my point
is, what if they wouldn't have had the one point three five million in
the first place. You follow what I'm saying, because that victory was our
victory. That victory was the next plandemic's victory, because another plandemic might be
coming, but there's already been in victory one that just messed up somebody's plandemic
right there, if you know what I'm saying. But it's the church.
It's the church. The church carries the good news of the Heaven. The
church carries the heart of Heaven and the character of Heaven. The church calls
people out of darkness and equips them with Heaven's DNA. The church is the
salt and the light of the world. The Church. The church carries the
values that actually cause society to work. If it weren't for the church,
we wouldn't need have the values that makes society work. It's out of the
Church that comes kindness. The world is not pushing forth kindness. Satan is
not like Satan is not specializing in kindness. Do you understand that it's the
values that make society work. Love, patience, kindness, meekness, gentleness,
servitude, self control, respect for property, respect for one another,
honor. I mean, we could go on and on about the values that
actually all of society cherishes and it makes all of society work. They don't
come out of any place other than the church. They come out of the
Church. We could talk about the Dark Ages. I don't know. You
know, if you realize that the Dark Ages were actually some people blame the
Dark Ages on the churches. You know, it's only the Church that sustained
culture through the Dark Ages. Go back and study again, you're gonna get
a revelation. Stole helping me because she's the church history genius. She helped
me to get a revelation that it was actually the church that brought life through
the Dark Ages. It wasn't the church that brought the dark ages. If
it weren't for the church, the lights would have gone out. That's always
the way it is, and that's always the way it's going to be.
And that's why the lights aren't going to go out because the church is well
alive. The church is well alive. Now here's the crazy thing about the
church. For all of this, the church needs people. People who are
able to lead, equip teach, build up, strengthen those who staff and
care for the most important organization on the planet. This is the most if
there were ever a critical hour for the church, I would say, this
is it. Actually. I mean, I'm sixty four in my lifetime,
and I know that's a short little span in the view of humanity, but
in my lifetime, this is the most critical hour ever for the church.
There has never been a more critical hour for the church in my lifetime.
And I don't know about you. Most of you are younger than me,
so you could probably agree with that. But I would say, even over
the history of our nation, there have been few times that are as critical
for the church to rise up as a time like this. So in my
thinking, this is not a time for us to wonder if we should support
the church. Wonder if we should be on board with the church. Wonderful
like we should be partnering with the church. Should we really be partnering with
the Church? Are you kidding me? Wake up? Wake up, child
of God. This is this could be the most important time in your lifetime
to partner with the Church. And all of this for the most important organization
society, All of it has had its biblical precedent in influence support making it
happen in a crazy thing called the tide the time. The tithe is how
people of God from the day of Abraham, Genesis chapter fourteen, God set
a priest in Abram's life. It's the first act recorded in Abram's walk in
covenant with God. And Abram gives of him a tenth part of increase.
And we see that pattern begins then, and it's a pattern that goes on
and on with God's people ten percent. And God has always used this pattern
biblically to provide for what he wants to do on the earth. And so
I honestly cringe whenever anybody in ministry on a platform or anywhere with a microphone
says God doesn't need your money to keep heaven moving. That's totally true.
To keep Jesus on the throne, totally right, the throne in heaven.
But for God to do everything he wants to do in what we've been describing
as a growing kingdom and a diminishing darkness. Everything God wants to do in
the earth on the earth, he's chosen to do it through people. And
therefore people need to eat, and buildings need to be paid for, and
stuff needs to be supported, and so therefore God needs your money. People
always pour money into things that excite them. You know that, don't you.
The world is pouring so much money into them, the agendas that they're
putting forth right now, do you think the agendas moving forth are moving forward
without money. You've got to be kidding me. They're more than tithing.
They are more than tithing. Tithe means ten percent. But there's people so
sold out to their causes. Whether it's tree hugging causes, whale hugging causes,
a gender affirming causes, whether it's whether it's library causes, whether it's
the destruction of our university causes, whether it's climate change causes. I'm telling
you you can name the cause. People in the world are pouring much more
than ten percent into their cause. They're not just showing up and having a
cheeseburger. They are bringing their wallets. They are bringing their wallets. Loving
a cause means supporting that cause, be it a political party, a conservative
party, a school, university, hospital, or a brick of benevolence.
This is just the way it works in a third dimensional world. And it's
eleven thirty and I just started appreciate it. I just wound up. I
just got wound up. I was the barrier to blow a gasket. You
know. I don't see it as a painful reality. I see it as
the joy of those who are mature in Christ and an expression of childlike faith.
It's really true, you know, Joel and I have proved it out
so now forty years of ministry. Probably never had salaries that compare to most
of yours. No, it's true. You know, our our first little
spot, we joke about what our salary was, and and just kind of
scrapping and digging and all the time, you know, giving ten and twenty
and sometimes thirty percent of our income back to the church, and sacrificing and
just watching God work, watching God do miracles. This is what he says.
In Malachi three ten through twelve. He says, put me to the
test, prove me herein see if I won't open the windows of heaven for
you and pour out a blessing upon you. And I love the translation.
It gives a lot more clarity to it. And we could throw this stuff
up on the passage upon the stream. Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse.
That's the ten percent. Bring your ten percent into the storehouse, the
house of the Lord. Test me in this, says the Lord Almighty.
See if I will not throw up in the floodgates or the windows of heaven
and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store
it. So that's one translation. And I you know, folks want to
argue with that, because you can always build a bigger barn. Actually,
Luke twelve condemns the man. Jesus spoke in a condemning man about a man
who built bigger barns because his harvest was so vast. So he said,
I'm just going to build bigger barns, And so he built bigger barns.
But that passage says, but he wasn't rich toward God. Because he wasn't
rich toward God, God cut his life short and he lived in futility.
He didn't enjoy his wealth. There wasn't real fulfillment. Because the joy of
wealth is supposed to be the joy of not just you tasting the wealth,
but if you seeing what your wealth can do. And you can only do
that if you're also rich toward God. God wants to give you a prosperous
field house, family life. God wants to prosper you, but he also
wants you to be rich toward Him and giving. Let's go back to Malachi
because I want you to see it. I outline the nine Everybody say nine,
We're never going to get to that today. I outline nine benefits of
tithing. That's about as ambitious as the bike trip yesterday. I told Joel
and the Conleys we were going to go on a little bit mike trip.
Thirty two miles later, exhausted, fall into the vehicle, nearly fall asleep
on their way home, can't move when we get home, Lord Jesus,
whereas my brain, the ambition just literally overtook me. We need a healing
but it's a healing of the brain, not only the body. Well,
that's the same thing with nine points on the blessings the promises of tithing.
But I promise you this, we will get to those nine. Go back
to verse ten. I want you to see this. I like the translation
that says because we can always get a bigger barn. But there's a translation
that says, pour out so much blessing that you will not be able to
manage it. The inference is that the blessing of the Lord will be bigger
than you can manage alone. That when God's blessings upon you'll you'll need those
to help you manage it. It's more than you can contain or manage by
yourself. You need the help of others around you. And that might even
be happening to you to a degree already. And you're not tithing. But
what he's saying is now, I need you to be rich toward me.
It's interesting with Abram in Genesis fourteen, God gave him the victory over the
five kings first, and then out of a reflection, I'm recognizing that God
gave him the victory, he brought the gift of ten percent to the priest
Malkazidek, and that resulted in a greater blessing because then Melksitic blessed him.
And it says the blesser is always blessed by the greater, So Abram,
who was blessed, received even a greater blessing from a greater one because he
brought the tenth part. And what blows me away? And I'll just touch
on one more blessing. We won't go into the rest of those. But
there's so many tucked into here. There's so many promises tucked into this,
and we've been receivers of all of them. For forty years of marriage,
forty years of ministry, we've been receivers of all of them. With our
children, our home, our finance, our future, our health. We
literally have like lived in the land of Goshen. While while actually by men's
estimation, it couldn't be. Like Caleb says all of his friends, if
you don't believe in God, just look at my parents. That will change
your mind right there, because all of his buddies are coming from rich families,
doctors and lawyers and what have you. And that's all good. If
they've all known that we have laid down our lives to build a church.
And yet God has built our house and protected us and helped us some of
us just wisdom. You know. When he opens up the windows of heaven,
it's it's not envelopes of money dropping on you. It's favor and opportunity
and wisdom and self control. And it's also the windows of heaven mean the
access to heavens, thoughts, values, character ideas, concepts, favor.
It's he didn't say I'm going to open the windows of money and they'll all
drop on you. He's opening the windows of heaven. That's been a theme
for four weeks, the Kingdom of Heaven, accessing living in and out of
the Kingdom of Heaven. That's been our theme. Well, I want to
go to one more thing. Romans eleven sixteen. We have it up there,
Roman's eleven sixteen, and it's back in Leviticus twenty three thirty, and
it's over in another passage that I gave him. Let I give you that
the ninety percent is blessed Proverbs three. If the part of the dough offered
his first fruits is holy, then the whole batch is holy. Now I
want you get over Proverbs three, Mark I few in Proverbs three, it's
the first fus principle. This is really this is a crazy thing about tithing,
is that years ago we figured out because we had to budget, just
like all of you do. We budget today. We do all of our
money on quick books. We budget everything we do. We keep track of
every penny we spend, We keep all of our receipts. We budget like
all of you have to budget. And we figured out a long time ago
that God was really smart and that he wanted the tithe to be the first
check. You're right, He wanted the tithe to be the first expense because
if you'll leave it to the last, you may not have ten percent left
over it. And biblically, that's called the first fruits. Biblically, he
said, give me the first, make the ten percent the first. And
here's what's crazy. He says that when you make the ten percent to him
first, then he sanctifies and blesses the ninety percent. That's why the ninety
percent with him is more than one hundred percent without. This is how our
ninety percent is blast beyond, Like our stuff doesn't wear out, and our
stuff lasts longer and we get more discernment and insight and understanding on our like
our ninety percent is more. There's a miracle on our ninety percent because we've
dedicated the first ten percent to him. Our ten percent, that's the first
he gets the first. Yeah, but I thought Uncle Sam got your first.
Well that's another topic. That means that you tie it off the gross,
not the net. If you tie it off the net, uncle Sam
got the first ten percent. But if you tie it off of the gross
before, what was it before taxes were taken out? Okay, I'm gonna
tie off that the four thousand before they took out my taxes and my Social
Security and then I'm going to tie it off of four thousand. That's four
hundred dollars. I'm not going to tie off of the thirty six hundred dollars
that was left over because that would be second. That would be giving God
my second fruits. So I don't want to give him my second fruits.
I'm going to give him my first fruits. So I'm going to write in
the first check, and it's gonna be based on what it was before Uncle
got his. And this is how God releases miracles in your lifeless same.
We've got a close I've gone over time and the hot dogs are frying right
now. We've got chicken thighs on the barbecue, boneless chicken thighs. We've
got giant hot dogs, little hot dogs, beet fought dogs. We avoided
all portocot dogs, pork free, pork free lunch. We want you to
stay and have fun. We're gonna be hanging out, you know, tell
like four o'clock or whatever. We got whiffleball. We got cornhole. We
have got We've got three cornh hole sets. We can have a corn hole
tournament. We've got apple pie contests. We got ice cream. We have
the jumpy house, and we have the slide for kids. We've got the
playground. It's gonna be fun. But the most important thing is that this
is the most critical hour for the Ecclesia who arise, and for us to
worship not only with our hands up and with our voices, but to worship
with our giving, to love the cause of the Kingdom of Heaven so much
that we get behind that cause financially. And I don't know about you,
but I you know, I care about the earth. I care about the
earth, and I care about trees, and I care about the whales,
and I do I care about climate, and I care about stuff like this,
and I can learn I care about carbon and this and not. But
you know, I think I think the answers are in the church. I
think the answers come out of heaven. And so I'm not going to give
my money into that stuff. I'm going to give my money to this stuff.
I'm going to give my money in the raising up heaven, raising up
a people of heaven, raising up influencers of heaven, raising up households of
heaven, raising up an echlos sea of people, raising up the influencers of
heaven who will go in. I'm going to get my money into equipping the
people who will carry heaven. That's where I'm going to give my money.
And so when the whale people call me, I gave. I already gave.
When the tree people call me, when the sunshine people call me,
or the climate people, I already gave. Where'd you give? I gave?
And I'm pouring it in. I'm pouring it in. I want to
be a part of building the most important people and the most important thinkers,
and the most important legislative body and the most important movers and shakers on the
planet. And that's only coming out of one thing. It's coming out of
the organism and the institution and the living body called the Church of the Lord
Jesus Christ. That's where I want to pour my money. I want to
pour my money into that, and I want that to be raised up.
And so Father I I just join with these people. I just know that
you have knit us together here as a household of faith with people who love
what you love. And we love that Heaven's growing in Heaven's building, and
that you're using us, and that you're raising us up. You've given us
your authority and you're giving us your wisdom. And we just say yes to
you, and yes to funding dramatically funding the Kingdom of Heaven, dramatically funding
the work of the gospel, dramatically funding the people and the houses and the
buildings and the equipment and the books and the stuff that carry your message.
Holy Spirit. We agree to be your faith ones, your mature ones in
Jesus, and your childlike believers in Jesus name. And everybody shouted, God
bless your church.
