Speaker 1: Hey, we want to talk about the blessings of Heaven
Speaker 1: on earth, and this is the time period we're living
Speaker 1: in over here. And you'll notice we're trying to shift
Speaker 1: our theological perspective. This is so important that we shift
Speaker 1: our theological perspective that we partner with Heaven, we partner
Speaker 1: with the victories of Jesus because we don't get the
Speaker 1: result of what God's done. You have to know that
Speaker 1: you do not get the result of what God's done.
Speaker 1: You get the result of what you believe God has done.
Speaker 1: So if God's done it and you still disbelieve, you
Speaker 1: get the result of what you disbelieve because your doubt
Speaker 1: will always be proven by experience. Your doubt will always
Speaker 1: be justified by circumstance. So in church and religion, we
Speaker 1: are trained in pessimism. We're trained in unbelief, were trained
Speaker 1: in partial belief. What we tend to believe. Instead of
Speaker 1: seeing that there's two eras or two kingdom eras, what
Speaker 1: we tend to believe or lean into is that there's
Speaker 1: three eras. What we see is this is kind of
Speaker 1: a mediocre kingdom we're in now. But at the end,
Speaker 1: Jesus will come back on a white horse and rescue
Speaker 1: us out of this mediocre kingdom, and then he will
Speaker 1: start the new wonderful kingdom. It's not Bible, but if
Speaker 1: we believe that that's the result we'll get. If we
Speaker 1: believe in an absence of victory and absence of glory,
Speaker 1: if we believe that demons can still overtake us, then
Speaker 1: we've given demons permission to overtake us. Because what you
Speaker 1: believe is what your faith is, and demons are spirit beings,
Speaker 1: and spirit beings operate by faith. All spirit beings operate
Speaker 1: by faith. That's why fear is actually faith. Fear is
Speaker 1: not what you think it is. Fear. Fear is not
Speaker 1: like a scary thing. It's scary, all right. It's scary
Speaker 1: because it's exercising faith in the unseen realm, in the
Speaker 1: unclean realm. If it's pessimistic faith, so we aren't. There
Speaker 1: aren't two kingdoms developing here. There's one, and this one continues.
Speaker 1: And you'll notice, you know, Scripture goes through this thing too.
Speaker 1: Is that you know, Daniel sees one like the Son
Speaker 1: of Man coming to the ancient of days, and he's
Speaker 1: given a kingdom, and he's given sovereignty and he's giving
Speaker 1: rain over the earth and over people, that all would
Speaker 1: serve him, and that king is everlasting. He didn't see
Speaker 1: like the Son of Man came up to the Ancient
Speaker 1: of days and he was given a small part of
Speaker 1: the world. He was given a mediocre rule. He was
Speaker 1: given some rule over the earth, that some of the earth. Right. No, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no. It's very clear Isaiah nine seven through nine,
Speaker 1: one of our favorites. Right, we will call him wonderful
Speaker 1: counselor Almighty God, Prince of peace. And of the increase
Speaker 1: of his government of peace there shall be no That
Speaker 1: isn't what Isaiah meant. What Isaiah meant was of the
Speaker 1: increase of his government of peace. There shall be a
Speaker 1: partial time of his victory, maybe one hundred years or
Speaker 1: two or three, until Constantine comes into the Lord or
Speaker 1: brings Rome into the church in about eighty three hundred,
Speaker 1: and then after that it's going to get really bad.
Speaker 1: They'll continue to get bad until the rupture. That isn't
Speaker 1: what Isaiah said. That isn't what Isaiah saw.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: Even Micah two, let's go to I mean Michael four,
Speaker 1: let's go to Micaphore micahphour is identical to Isaiah two.
Speaker 1: Micaphore is Isaiah identical to Isaiah two. At the beginning
Speaker 1: of those we don't have these scriptures. Don't worry about it.
Speaker 1: We're not preaching it. We're just having fun. But it
Speaker 1: says that in the last days, the mountain of the
Speaker 1: House of the Lord will be established as the chief mountain,
Speaker 1: and all of the nations will come to the mountain
Speaker 1: of the House of the Lord, and they will say,
Speaker 1: teach us the law of the Lord. Now, this is
Speaker 1: Zion being established. This is Zion being lifted up. The
Speaker 1: mountain of the House of the Lord is Zion, which
Speaker 1: is the house of David. Which is what Amos saw
Speaker 1: in Amos chapter nine, which is what James saw in
Speaker 1: Acts chapter fifteen, when the gentile nations were all coming
Speaker 1: to know the Lord, because gentiles never knew the Lord before.
Speaker 1: When the Gentiles were coming to know the Lord. Then
Speaker 1: James says, the brother of Jesus says, this is what's happening.
Speaker 1: He explains it to Peter because Peter led Cornelis to
Speaker 1: the Lord in next chapter ten, and he's the first
Speaker 1: gentile believer, and he says, this is what's happening. Oh,
Speaker 1: my goodness, the gentile nations are being set free. That's
Speaker 1: why Jesus said Matthew twenty eight, eighteen and nineteen. All authority,
Speaker 1: not partial authority. All authority has been given to me.
Speaker 1: Go therefore and baptize and convert and disciple all the nations.
Speaker 1: It's the first time they've been sent out to the
Speaker 1: gentile nations. Remember what we've talked about, Table of Nations,
Speaker 1: Genesis eleven, the Tower of Babel, the dividing up of
Speaker 1: the nations Deuteronomy thirty two eight and nine. God gave
Speaker 1: the nations over to unclean leadership, to principalities and powers,
Speaker 1: which Paul talks about in Ephesian six. Until the Christ
Speaker 1: would come. The gentile nations were reprobate, heathen nations, unclean
Speaker 1: under demons with no hope. They were not partakers of
Speaker 1: the promises of God whatsoever. He says in Deuteronomy thirty
Speaker 1: two eight and nine. Only Israel have I reserved for myself.
Speaker 1: So this is the first time wild things like this
Speaker 1: are happening. Crazy things are happening, and it's because there's
Speaker 1: been a cataclysmic shaking of the heavens and a shaking
Speaker 1: of the earth's systems and principalities and powers were toppled.
Speaker 1: When Yeshewa Jesus overcame Satan. And so this kingdom that
Speaker 1: has started, it's a victorious kingdom. And Jesus, thank you Lord,
Speaker 1: the president of the Lord is here making the lights
Speaker 1: go crazy. Thank you Lord, even the lights shall shake.
Speaker 1: And Jesus declared that the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus declared,
Speaker 1: heard it to be the Kingdom of Heaven. Let it
Speaker 1: soak in. Because we run around thinking it's the kingdom
Speaker 1: of religion. We think. We run around thinking it's the
Speaker 1: Kingdom of Take up my cross. We run around thinking
Speaker 1: every kind of negative, pessimistic, hard thing about this kingdom.
Speaker 1: We have all sorts of goofy ideas about what this
Speaker 1: kingdom is that are contrary to Heaven. You're actually waiting
Speaker 1: to get to heaven when Jesus said, no, I'm actually
Speaker 1: sending it to you while you're alive. We're looking at
Speaker 1: earth as if it's hell on earth. Get that washed
Speaker 1: out of you right now. Hello, somebody that is some
Speaker 1: faced religion that needs to get washed out of your heart.
Speaker 1: Get that washed out of your heart, because that is
Speaker 1: contrary to the word of God. And if it's contrary
Speaker 1: to the word of God, that's pride and rebellion. So
Speaker 1: go ahead and bring that to the cross. Look at
Speaker 1: Matthew thirteen thirty one through thirty three. Jesus talks about
Speaker 1: the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, and he's not talking
Speaker 1: about this period over here after the rapture. I'm going
Speaker 1: to put a big R over here for rapture and
Speaker 1: a big S for second coming. What's that our stand for?
Speaker 1: S stands for? Okay, so that's happening on the last day,
Speaker 1: at the last Trump. Now he's not talking about a
Speaker 1: kingdom that's going to happen. Then he's talking about a
Speaker 1: kingdom that's going to happen with his advent, with his
Speaker 1: first advent, his first coming, not his second. He presented
Speaker 1: a parable to them, saying the Kingdom of Heaven is
Speaker 1: like a mustard seed which a person took and sewed
Speaker 1: in a field. Who was the mustard seed Joe twenty four.
Speaker 1: It's him. Unless I'm planted into the soil of the
Speaker 1: earth in my death, I will abide alone. But if
Speaker 1: I'm planted as a seed in the earth in my death,
Speaker 1: then I will bear much fruit John twelve twenty four.
Speaker 1: And so he is the mustard seed, is talking about
Speaker 1: the kingdom like a mustard seed which a person took
Speaker 1: and sewed in a field. We are the field, and
Speaker 1: it's smaller than the inner seeds, but when fully grown,
Speaker 1: it's larger than the garden plants and becomes the trees,
Speaker 1: so that the birds of the sky come and nest
Speaker 1: in its branches. So that then he goes on. Then
Speaker 1: he's spoken that are parable to them, saying, the Kingdom
Speaker 1: of Heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and
Speaker 1: hid in three pecks of meal or a sota of flour,
Speaker 1: until all was leavened. The Kingdom of Heaven, which began
Speaker 1: with him, right, Matthew sixteen twenty eight. Let's read Matthew
Speaker 1: sixteen twenty eight. He said, I tell you some who
Speaker 1: are standing here will not taste death before they see
Speaker 1: the son of Man coming into his kingdom. So when
Speaker 1: was it starting? He was trying to tell them, in
Speaker 1: eighty thirty two. This thing is starting real fast. This
Speaker 1: thing is at hand, It is sharting real soon. In fact,
Speaker 1: is many of you standing here, You're going to see
Speaker 1: my kingdom, the Kingdom of heaven on Earth. You're going
Speaker 1: to see it start real soon. Why because it was
Speaker 1: starting in AD thirty three, just one year later. So
Speaker 1: here's the one I want to do. I want to
Speaker 1: reason with this a little bit. I thought it would
Speaker 1: be good to reason because I can tell you, and
Speaker 1: I can command you with the authority of Pasture de Wayne,
Speaker 1: to believe that this is the period of Heaven on Earth.
Speaker 1: But if it truly is the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth,
Speaker 1: there should be some cataclysmic changes, because it says the
Speaker 1: heavens and the Earth would be shaken. There should be
Speaker 1: some things that are different than this kingdom. We should
Speaker 1: be able to identify. This period here is very different
Speaker 1: than this period here. Remember I told you these are
Speaker 1: the last days. These were the last days thirty three
Speaker 1: to seventy, those were the last days. In eighty seventy
Speaker 1: the temple was destroyed and the sacrificial system came to
Speaker 1: a close. This is this brand news system where you
Speaker 1: are the temple and Jesus is the sacrifice. He's the
Speaker 1: sacrificial system, he's the priest, he's the lamb, he's everything.
Speaker 1: So there should be some things that we should be
Speaker 1: able to identify that are different, and I want to
Speaker 1: just name some of them. John fifteen fifteen. I no
Speaker 1: longer call you servants. Everybody before was called a servant
Speaker 1: of God, and you could be a servant of God.
Speaker 1: But a servant of God wasn't on the inside. A
Speaker 1: servant of God had a rule based relationship, legalistic, rule
Speaker 1: based relationship. No longer would we be called servants, but
Speaker 1: we would be called friends. Because a servant does not
Speaker 1: know his master's business. Oh that's interesting. You have the
Speaker 1: privilege of knowing father's business. That sounds like a change.
Speaker 1: No longer servants, but now friends. For everything that I've
Speaker 1: learned from my father, I have made known to you.
Speaker 1: This is a brand new season. And here's the season.
Speaker 1: It's not just for the Jewish people. But the crazy
Speaker 1: thing about everything I'm going to mention, it's for every
Speaker 1: nation under the sun. It's for every nation, even those
Speaker 1: that have been heathen, those that have been sacrificing, those
Speaker 1: that have been in witchcraft, those that have been in
Speaker 1: sexual immorality and debauchery. Every gentile nation now could be
Speaker 1: friends with God. Two. Let's talk about number two. So
Speaker 1: here we got friends. Everybody say friends. You can be
Speaker 1: a friend of God. Does that sound like a new season.
Speaker 1: That sounds like a new season to me. You can
Speaker 1: be a friend of God. Number two, He's delivered us
Speaker 1: into the Kingdom of light, out of darkness, into the
Speaker 1: Kingdom of light. Now, when he talks about this, we
Speaker 1: ought to see that this is a massive change. Because
Speaker 1: when he writes this one and we read it, we
Speaker 1: love it. We've read it before. But when he writes
Speaker 1: this one, you have to realize he's writing it to
Speaker 1: the Colassians. The Colossians are gentiles. They've been under principalities
Speaker 1: and powers. They've been under rulers of wickedness. The Colossian
Speaker 1: people were heathen people. The Colaussian people knew nothing of
Speaker 1: the promises of God. The Colausian people were as far
Speaker 1: from God as you could possibly get. But here's what
Speaker 1: he says. For he rescued us from the domain of
Speaker 1: darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son,
Speaker 1: in whom we have redemption and the forgiveness of sins.
Speaker 1: Does that sound like a change brought out of darkness?
Speaker 1: Out of darkness? Come on, somebody, you have to see
Speaker 1: how crazy this is. Because I could go through we
Speaker 1: don't have time today, but I could go through twenty
Speaker 1: five of these things that tell us there's a massive change,
Speaker 1: that something dynamic happened. We're no longer in this time period.
Speaker 1: We're in this one. And this is not an inferior
Speaker 1: time period. This is not a partial period of victory.
Speaker 1: This is a period of supreme victory and overcoming grace.
Speaker 1: And what's happening is with every successive generation, the Lord
Speaker 1: is subduing the enemies of righteousness, putting them under our feet,
Speaker 1: and the Church, the Ecclesia, the called out, the body
Speaker 1: of Christ is growing in a greater and a greater glory.
Speaker 1: Number three, Number three, He's made us to be a
Speaker 1: new creation. Do you ever hear that kind of talk
Speaker 1: in the former period of time? You ever hear that
Speaker 1: kind of talk under Moses two Corinthians five seventeen, You're like,
Speaker 1: what do we do with this passor what's he waiting for? Therefore,
Speaker 1: if anyone is in Christ, anyone is in the Messiah,
Speaker 1: remember Christ is not his last name. If anyone is
Speaker 1: in the Messiah, if anyone is in the Anointed One,
Speaker 1: if anyone has hidden their life in Him through faith,
Speaker 1: then the new creation has come. The New Creation has come.
Speaker 1: That's what we read about in Isaiah sixty five seventeen
Speaker 1: through twenty five last week. The new Creation speaks of
Speaker 1: a new heaven and a new Earth. The New Creation
Speaker 1: speaks of this new period of time. We're not waiting
Speaker 1: for the rapture to come into this new time. We're
Speaker 1: in this new time now. And if we believe upon
Speaker 1: the Messiah, if we believe in the Anointed One, we've
Speaker 1: actually entered into new creation living now. The Bible says
Speaker 1: you've already even passed from death to life now now, now,
Speaker 1: part of that is because of the change that has
Speaker 1: taken place. Let's go over here to the New Creation.
Speaker 1: But part of why Jesus says you've already been a
Speaker 1: partaker of the First Resurrection. This is the Book of Revelation.
Speaker 1: You've already been a partaker of the First Resurrection because
Speaker 1: death can't hold you. Now, death isn't just the decay
Speaker 1: of your body. Death isn't just what happens to your body.
Speaker 1: Death is actually coming under the dominion of Satan, under
Speaker 1: the dominion of the curse, under the dominion of Satan.
Speaker 1: So when we read that death has been canceled death
Speaker 1: has been overcome. First Corinthians fifteen fifty five, Death, where
Speaker 1: is your stay? When we read that, we're like, hold it,
Speaker 1: I'm still going to die. Yeah, But there's no fear
Speaker 1: in death because you've already passed from death to life,
Speaker 1: and Satan is no longer the lord over you, or
Speaker 1: over your physical body or over your soul. So death
Speaker 1: is not just the losing of your earth suit. Death
Speaker 1: is coming under the dominion of Satan, of which Jesus overcame.
Speaker 1: That when he died and went into Hell, went into Sheil,
Speaker 1: and he rescued the righteous out of Sheil. Because from
Speaker 1: the time of Adam and Adam's fall until the Christ,
Speaker 1: all the dead were under the control of Satan, even
Speaker 1: the righteous dead, even the righteous dead, we're under the
Speaker 1: your fiction of Satan. So Ephesians four, I'm getting ahead
Speaker 1: of myself. Ephesians four eight through ten says that he
Speaker 1: went into Shield and he brought those who were held
Speaker 1: captive out of captivity, and he took them with him
Speaker 1: in his train in the glory. So the moment you're
Speaker 1: absent from your body, you're immediately present with the Lord.
Speaker 1: That never happened before, that never happened before in all
Speaker 1: of history, all the way back to first atom, that
Speaker 1: never happened before. This is a new season. Heaven has
Speaker 1: been rearranged, Earth has been rearranged, the spirit realm has
Speaker 1: been rearranged. It's amazing. What am I supposed to call
Speaker 1: that one? I don't know that. It's way back there
Speaker 1: in number eight or something. Okay, we'll skip it. We'll
Speaker 1: come back to him. Okay. So he's made us to
Speaker 1: be a new creation Blessing number four. He's bestowed on
Speaker 1: us the glory of the Godhead. He's bestowed on us.
Speaker 1: He's not going to bestow on us the glory of
Speaker 1: the Godhead. Listen, Religion always has something better for you tomorrow.
Speaker 1: I guarantee there is something better for you tomorrow. Because
Speaker 1: we go from glory to glory. We go from faith
Speaker 1: to faith. What does it mean to go from faith
Speaker 1: to faith? That means Tomorrow's word will be a good
Speaker 1: word to sustain you and to build you up, to
Speaker 1: equip you and ready you in Christ. That's good. We
Speaker 1: go from faith to faith, and we go from glory
Speaker 1: to glory. How do we go from glory? We partake
Speaker 1: of the word of faith, and so that brings us
Speaker 1: into higher levels of glory. But what I'm talking about
Speaker 1: is religion always wants to disbelieve today's glory and to
Speaker 1: put it off to tomorrow, always talking about tomorrow, the
Speaker 1: days to come, Revival's coming. Well, there's a good thinking,
Speaker 1: well glory, Well it's gonna be. Well, hang on now,
Speaker 1: religion is always putting off to tomorrow the blessing of today.
Speaker 1: This is a CEU already living in heaven on earth.
Speaker 1: But religion has robbed you from it, stole it from you,
Speaker 1: robbed it out of your gut, your gizzard, and your
Speaker 1: your spiritual bank account. And you're moping around like like
Speaker 1: a big old mover. We got the e or spirit
Speaker 1: all over the church. Well, I don't know, tigger. I
Speaker 1: don't know, Tigger. I don't know what's gonna be a
Speaker 1: good day. I'm watching the weather. Tigger. Well, I might,
Speaker 1: I might prospering. I'm not no, I don't know. I
Speaker 1: might smile and I'm not no, I'm not sure. I'm
Speaker 1: checking my mood, checking my mood. Tigger. Calm down, tigger.
Speaker 1: You must have got born again last week. Tigger. That'll
Speaker 1: you'll lose that pretty soon. Now, you'll lose that right away.
Speaker 1: That's just fresh born again joy y'all. Just you'll calm
Speaker 1: down in a month or two now, just living for
Speaker 1: the Lord and all this cracked up to be. That's
Speaker 1: the way we at church. But listen, listen, listen, listen
Speaker 1: to what the Word of God says, because the word
Speaker 1: of God will shed a lot of light on your opinions.
Speaker 1: John seventeen twenty two. I have given them the glory
Speaker 1: that you gave me. I have given them. I have
Speaker 1: given them the glory that you gave me, that they
Speaker 1: may be one as we are one, I in them
Speaker 1: and you and me, that we may be brought together
Speaker 1: in complete unity. That the world will know you sent me,
Speaker 1: That the world will know you sent me, that the world.
Speaker 1: Glory is part of how the world will know. No
Speaker 1: wonder they don't know. Half the time we got no glory.
Speaker 1: We're looking at the news for you know, looking at
Speaker 1: the news, well, we're looking at the weather, well, we're
Speaker 1: looking at the bombs, well, we're looking at the stock market. Well.
Speaker 1: We're walking by circumstances instead of by the word of God,
Speaker 1: instead of by faith. Believers are supposed to walk by
Speaker 1: faith and not by circumstances. We don't set our attitude
Speaker 1: after circumstance. I love somebody. He already gave us glory,
Speaker 1: and this way he's making us the envy of the world.
Speaker 1: He's trying to raise up a generation that actually believe him,
Speaker 1: because if we don't believe him, we can't partake and
Speaker 1: what he gave us. But if we'll start believing him,
Speaker 1: if there will be a generation to start believing and
Speaker 1: what he gave us, then that generation will start seeing
Speaker 1: the fruit of what he gave us. And then that
Speaker 1: generation will start reflecting the glory of God. Arise and shine,
Speaker 1: for thy glory has come. The glory of the Lord
Speaker 1: has risen upon you. That's Isaiah sixty. That's an old
Speaker 1: scripture that most folk are still like. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'd rather have the glory of a coffee. How about
Speaker 1: a classic car, how about a pretty girl? How about
Speaker 1: a how about a steak that's a little pink on
Speaker 1: the inside. Come on, what's wrong with us? We're not
Speaker 1: residing in the majestic, the beautiful, the bliss that the
Speaker 1: pleasure of his glory at his right hand. There are
Speaker 1: pleasures forevermore. Oh, there's so much more. For us. Okay,
Speaker 1: so uh, I'm almost done glory. Everybody said glory. Say
Speaker 1: I have glory. Now say I'm a partaker of glory.
Speaker 1: Now stand with me. I got to move into my
Speaker 1: first closing. Say it again, I'm a partaker of the
Speaker 1: fullness of his glory. Now he overshadows me with his glory.
Speaker 1: Come on, standing with me. First closing. Blessing number five.
Speaker 1: Blessing number five. These are things that in this entire era,
Speaker 1: they never partook up. This kind of thing. Listen, this
Speaker 1: is the first, the Lord's first sermon. Blessing number five,
Speaker 1: anointedness with the oil of Joy. Yes, your teeth should
Speaker 1: show more often. This is the Lord's first sermon. When
Speaker 1: he preached his first sermon after his water baptism, he said,
Speaker 1: hand me the scroll of Isaiah. And they handed him
Speaker 1: the scroll, and he turned to chapter sixty one, and
Speaker 1: then he quotes this, and then he says, at the
Speaker 1: end of quoting it, I mean he reads it. At
Speaker 1: the end of reading it, he said, today this scripture
Speaker 1: is fulfilled in your hearing. Isaiah sixty one. I want
Speaker 1: to read it to you because it will shed a
Speaker 1: lot of light on our commentaries. Right the sphere of
Speaker 1: the sovereign Lord is upon me, because the Lord has
Speaker 1: anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He
Speaker 1: has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, proclaim
Speaker 1: freedom to captives, released from darkness, for prisoners, to proclaim
Speaker 1: the year of the Lord's favor today, of vengeance of
Speaker 1: our God. Now, you've got to realize, as he's shouting
Speaker 1: it over the nations, he's not just shouting this over
Speaker 1: the Israeli people. This is not over the circumcised only,
Speaker 1: Oh no, over the uncircumcised, over all the nations. Now
Speaker 1: it goes on and to comfort those who mourn in
Speaker 1: every nation. Why, because it's a new day, it's a
Speaker 1: new season. He's announcing the beginning of a new day,
Speaker 1: a new season, and provide for those who grieve in Zion,
Speaker 1: those who come to Zion Mount Zion, the house God's
Speaker 1: establishing that doesn't have the blood of animals, but has
Speaker 1: the praise of sons and daughters who come with the
Speaker 1: sacrifice of the fruit of their lips. That's what Zion is.
Speaker 1: Zion is where we come to adore the Lord with
Speaker 1: the fruit of our lips. That's the sacrifice, and we
Speaker 1: come and it says, to bestow on them a crown
Speaker 1: of beauty instead of ashes. If you approached God here,
Speaker 1: you had to come with ashes. You had to come
Speaker 1: in the humility of ashes. When you had its struggle,
Speaker 1: you would clothe yourself with sycloth and ashes. But he said,
Speaker 1: I'm going to be stowing you something different. I'm going
Speaker 1: to be stowing you a crown of beauty instead of ashes,
Speaker 1: the oil of joy instead of mourning. When does the
Speaker 1: oil of joy start? My life's so hard. When does
Speaker 1: the oil of joy start? Oh, it must start out here,
Speaker 1: somewhere after the rapture, after the second Coming.
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: He said, Today, this is fulfilled in your hearing. Today,
Speaker 1: this is fulfilled in your hearing, first ceremony ever preached,
Speaker 1: first ceremony ever preached. He said, for those that are mourning,
Speaker 1: I'm going to be stowing you the oil of joy.
Speaker 1: Come on, get those pearly whites. I want to see
Speaker 1: pearly whites all across the building. Come on, come on,
Speaker 1: come on, come on, come on, come on. You know
Speaker 1: who the most joyful people on the planet are. It's
Speaker 1: the people that have shed the douldrums of religion and
Speaker 1: they've shed the duldrums of pessimisms, and they've shed the
Speaker 1: duldrums of walking by circumstance and examining the clouds for
Speaker 1: how they ought to feel. It's the people that have
Speaker 1: embraced the Holy Spirit, and they've received the oil of
Speaker 1: the joy of gladness. This is yours, if you'll take it.
Speaker 1: And he says, I'm gonna give them a garment of praise. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: he didn't say, I'm gonna insist that they praise. No,
Speaker 1: he didn't say I'm gonna require that they praise. He
Speaker 1: didn't say, and by the way, they will, they will praise. No,
Speaker 1: this is so good, This salvation is so good, this
Speaker 1: heaven on earth period is so good. You can't help
Speaker 1: but praise. You can't help but praise. You can't help
Speaker 1: but praise. And they will be called oaks of righteousness,
Speaker 1: a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.
Speaker 1: Did you know we're on display? We're on display. We're
Speaker 1: on display. What in the world, Oaks of righteousness? Come on,
Speaker 1: hands up everywhere. I want you to shed all pessimism
