Reformation: Rewired

Welcome back to The Gathering Tabernacle Podcast! On today's episode we have Pastor Sarah Goostree bringing a Word given to her. She kept hearing, rewired. What does it mean to be rewired? Why do you continue to struggle as a Christian? Maybe it is because you haven't been hearing and receiving the truth. Sound can be heard yet not received. You can receive the Word and still choose to not put it to action. That's when you need to be rewired. For change to happen you must hear, receive, and put into action. If you don't believe the Lord will take care of you, then you need to be rewired right now. The struggles may not get any easier so that's why you need to be rewired. It's okay to be broken but it is not okay to stay that way.

Amen. Hallelujah. God said, Let there be light. Then there was light. Amen. Thank you. You know, his words are so powerful that he spoke it and then it was. He spoke it and then it was. I'm telling you, and that's the way your life words work. You speak it and then it is. Positive or negative, good or bad. I'm saying change your way of thinking. God said, let there be light, and there was light. Amen. God said, then he saw. God said, then he saw. God said, then he saw. Amen. So put your name in there. I said, then I saw. I said, then I saw. Yeah, you got to say it before you can see it. Amen. I used to say it a lot before I seen it. Man, the pollen's so bad I'll probably have a sinus infection next week. Then I said it and then I saw it. Then I said it and then I saw it. Then I realized I could reach down and I could grab on the word of God and I could say, you know, pollen, you're not going to have anything over me. You're defeated in the name of Jesus. I will live and not die. I don't put the Lord to a foolish test on a lot of things, but but I've learned that He is a God that loves you. He is a God that once you healed, once you set free, once you delivered, once you made whole. And I'm telling you, allergies are not of God. Allergies are not of God. Just like cancer is not a God, just like depression's not a God, just like anxiety is not a God, but He come to heal you and He come to set you free of that. You know, there He is our, you know, uh I was talking to a guy this week, uh a little bit, very little, you know, and he's like, you know, the the most important thing is salvation, and I agree. And one thing we have learned about salvation is uh your New Testament's written in Greek, and that word for for salvation is actually soteria for salvation, but for saved it's sozoed. Uh and uh and it means saved, healed, set free, delivered, and made whole. He didn't come just so you so you could thank you. He didn't come just so you could have give your life to him and live this miserable life here on earth and and then barely make it. He come for you to give your life to him, for you to become a new creation in Christ. Then he he come to heal you, he come to set you free, he come to make you whole. You know, uh when Jesus was baptized uh uh in the Holy Spirit there in um the John the Baptist, and he was led into the wilderness uh for 40 days to be tempted by the devil. And then when he comes out, he goes into the into the synagogue and he, I believe it's in Isaiah, he reads and he picks it up, you know, and it says there, you know, the the Spirit of the Lord is upon me. He's anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor. He sent me to heal the brokenhearted, proclaim liberty to the captives, and some other stuff, right? Amen. Recover sight to the blind, but but but but he come to He comes so you could see, He comes so you can see physically, and He comes so you can see spiritually. Amen. He comes so you could hear physically, he comes so you could hear spiritually. Amen. And that's the God we serve. And when we put it in there and when we realize that, no, Lord, I'm gonna trust you, I'm gonna follow you, I'm gonna take you at your word. See, see, I'm not moved, I'm not moved by what I see. I'm moved by what Christ did, and I'm moved by the word. I don't identify with my past. My past ended on September 16th, 2011, and then I got a new identity. I got a new identity with Christ, and I no longer identify with my past, I identify with his past. And the truth is that he loved me, God loved me so much that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. The truth is he did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but the world might be saved. Zozo'd, healed, set free, and delivered. So that's his will for you to be healed, set free, delivered, and made whole. It's for you to give your life to him and go out and share the gospel. And to share the gospel, it really helps if you have a healthy body. Amen. Amen. Praise the Lord. That's what I'm thinking. So let's get prepared for our uh offering. Malachi 3, 10 through 12, of course. Hallelujah. What a wonderful day. Bring part. I miss it. Bring all the ties into the storehouse that there may be food in my house, and try me now in this, says the Lord of hosts. If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such a blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sake, so that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground. Did you ever realize that that giving your tithes is a devil rebuking tool? It's a devil rebuking tool. So when you're getting you kick the devil in the face, you know, don't know devil, I'm gonna give my tithes and I'm gonna bring all my tithes into the storehouse. And and the word of God says that that's a devil rebuking tool. Amen. You know, you know the devil's defeated, right? You know, you know the only uh authority the devil has is is what we give him in our lives. I'll tell you what, I'm not giving him any. You know, sometimes there may be some stuff come up on me, but I still don't give in to it. It don't say we won't, it don't say sickness won't try to come up on you. I think a lot of times we think, well, if I was doing this and that, sickness wouldn't ever try to come up on me. Nothing would ever ever try to come against me, and uh, you know, and that's completely against the word of God. You know, there were several people that come against Jesus, and you know, you know, when he went to the cross, you know how many people were there consoling him and and and wrapping their arms around him and telling him, you know, how much they appreciated him. It says all that all of them abandoned him, right? It says all of them abandoned him, and then he went to the cross, and that's how much he loved you, even though everyone abandoned him. That's how much he loved you. All right. Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field, says the Lord of hosts. And all nations will call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land, says the Lord of hosts. And I've typed this out into a declaration. I haven't given to it yet, but I'm bringing all my tithe into the storehouse, so there is provision and support in God's house. I do this for the Lord, knowing he will open the windows of heaven and pour, and pour blessings I don't have enough room to even contain. I know when I do this, God rebukes the devourer for my sake, so he will not destroy what the Lord is doing in and through my life or keep me from doing what the Lord has called me to do. All nations will call me blessed. Father, we praise you. Father, we thank you, Lord, that we get to give, Lord. We get to sow into the kingdom of God. We get to give our tithes and our offerings, Lord. Lord, and we speak blessings, Lord, over them tithes and offerings, Lord, the hard, um, the hard-earned money the people has had, Lord, that that we're trusting you with, Lord. We thank you, Lord, that only in the kingdom of heaven, Lord, does 90% of our money go further than 100, Lord. Lord, and we thank you, Lord, for the for the finances that are that we're seeing fruition of come, Lord. We thank you, Lord, for the blessings that we see are coming, Lord, both physically and and uh and spiritually, Lord, both monetary and both uh and other kinds, Lord. And we thank you, Lord, as we give to you in Jesus' mighty name. Amen. Amen, amen, amen. When I learn, I I get to give and not have to give, my life changed. You know, I did that with my kids a little bit. They're like, do we have to work in the chicken house? Absolutely not. You absolutely do not have to work in the chicken house. You get to work in the chicken house. Thank you for the one laugh from the pastor's wife. Yeah. Do I have to go to work today? Do I have to do schoolwork today, Mom? Do I have to No, Jolene, you do not have to do schoolwork today. You get to do schoolwork today. Do we have to go to church on Sunday? No, you get to go to church on Sunday. Do I have to eat my vegetables? No, you get to eat your vegetables. Amen. And I'm telling you, learn to learn to learn to eat food as your medicine so you don't have to take medicine as your food. Amen. All right, here comes Pastor Sarah. Hang on just a second. And we got this. I haven't told her, but we got I know. Well, tell them about it. Oh, there you go. And we got these awesome notebooks to put special things in. And it's like got, I'm going to call it scroll paper. Isn't that awesome? Yeah. And they said, you know, I could write stuff in that and then I could give it to my grandson one day. And I thought, man, that's awesome. Thank you. God bless you guys.

SPEAKER_02 12:38

Hallelujah. It's like a journal. Well, good morning. Can you not feel him? Can you not just know in the spirit? I mean, I woke up, I didn't get out of bed, but I woke up like at 3:30, which is abnormal for me. Dan was getting up. But I lay there and I thought, wow, can't you just feel the Lord? I mean, there was something rumbling. There's something. I'm like, there's an adrenaline flowing. And if you can't feel it, then get ready because he's gonna knock you out. I mean, it's gonna be amazing. And um anyway, let's pray first. Father, we love you. Father, we praise you, Father, you're good. And we thank you that today we receive wisdom and revelation of who we are in you, because without you, we are nothing. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. So I usually give Dan a little bit of notice if I think I want to preach. And I'd heard this before, but yesterday I'm like, you got a word tomorrow? He's like, Yeah, I'm gonna preach on faith. I'm like, okay. I'm like, I I got a word. I don't know what it's gonna consist of, but I got a little word. He's like, okay. Since we're one, it works great, right? But I keep hearing rewire, rewire, rewire. And the more I minister, that starts to make sense with people. So if I ask you, most of you, don't raise your hands, would say you're safe, right? Shake your head. Most of us would say that. But they're struggles, right? They're struggles. We all have them. So we need to be rewired. The world will say it's okay to be broken, busted, disgusted, uh, depressed, sad, and it's okay to stay that way. That's a lie. Jesse preached on it on the tent. It's okay to be broken. It's not okay to stay broken. So the world tries to lie to us to make us just agree with that. But God said, I came, I found you broken, but I won't leave you that way if you choose me. He came to give life and life more abundantly. He is the supplier of all our needs. In Christ Jesus, we can do everything. Nothing is impossible with him, right? So when we listen to him, things happen. When we listen to the world, things break. But why the struggle? Because we can't expect people to know things they've not been taught. We've had this church several years, and things have been taught. So you look around and you're like, yeah, but why is it not working? We can't expect if it's not been received to see action. Yeah, but I spoke it. Yeah. I heard you. Have you ever heard this? And I've said this pastor, maybe speaking. And most of the time I'm a multitasker. I can do more than one thing and still know what you said. But not all the time. So he said something, I'm like, yeah, I heard you, but what'd you say? Has anybody ever said that? It could be like some of our kids. I heard you, Mom, but I didn't clean my room. I don't know if that's ever happened. Maybe. Right? Sound can be heard, but not received. When you don't receive it, it don't go mentally, physically, or spiritually. It's just a sound. That's the reasons why we need to be rewired. It's not because we didn't hear it. It's because we didn't receive it. The world is fallen. We're busy. We're distracted. We have hurts. We have marriages. We have kids. We have a past that we still listen to. We receive the lies. We hear all that stuff real well, but we don't always hear the word of God. So I don't know about you, but sometimes in my day there are things that take my mind off of God. I might be in prayer, and one of you might call. My grandbaby may be sick and I have to go that day. But I was in prayer. But there's something that turned me from where I was. So we all need to be rewired. I'm not saying that you don't hear, I'm saying you don't receive the truth. We can hear and not receive, and we can say and not believe. I learned this by teaching the youth. I think we have the best youth ever, and they're amazing. They're honest. And they don't want to stay where they are. The problem with adults is we're not honest. I go to church every Sunday. I'm hearing the word. Well, your life ain't showing it. And that's not me saying it. You know, that's God speaking to you. So you can, you know, you can quote scripture, but if you don't believe it, it has no life. Even though you want to. You just are hearing it, but you don't believe it, so therefore you don't receive it. Many people hear God's words. If you allow God's words to become them, they don't want to be rewired. And sometimes I say this, but they just don't know yet. It doesn't matter how many times I have to say to you the word of God, every time I say it, if I look at you with condemnation, like, really, Pastor Dan, you didn't get that? Then I've lost the love of Jesus. Every time we speak the word of God, if the blood is applied over you when you speak, you'll be looking for a new creation to appear. Every time. But if I let condemnation come in, I'm gonna be like, Jolene, I've told you to pick that up. You stayed with me last weekend and you weren't doing what you're supposed to. She doesn't get it. She didn't hear. It's not making excuses, but can you just say, I don't think they heard it. I don't think they received it yet. That's how Jesus would look at it every time he forgives you. We gotta be rewired. So when we get saved, we're a new house. And I thought about this this week as I was cleaning my house that I've lived in for like seven years. And if you go on my house, most of the time it's pretty clean. You know, the floors are clean, it's mocked, it looks pretty good. But I was in one closet and I thought, well, yuck. And I wipe my hand and I'm like, I don't think I've cleaned in here in seven years. So what was a new house now becomes scummed up. It's decaying. I mean that spot can eventually decay. Because there might be mass poop, which is not, but there might be. You know, when the yucca keeps piling up, you're gonna decay. If we don't clean out, eventually, every room will be piled full, and there'll be no room for the word of God. So I thought about a house and it needs to be rewired, right? So when the lie comes in, what do you do? And I asked to use this. What do you do? And the Lord reminded me of uh 2 Corinthians 10, 5, take every thought captive that comes against God. So when the lie comes, it should be real easy to be like when he says, and I do this, Jolene sits near me in class, and I'm like, if you hear the lie, you're stupid. He's trying to exalt himself against my God. Would my God say that to me? No. So therefore, with Christ, I have the ability, and that's like at knife point to make it lead. I have authority and a power to make it lead. But if you don't, the Lord reminded me of like when I was little, um, my aunt took me to play bingo. I don't play bingo now. But you got that ball machine, pop and one pops up, right? So when you don't take your thoughts captive, they're inside you going pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, and the bad day comes idiot. You won't have no money. You're a failure. Because you've never taken the thoughts captive, but you've let them breed inside of you. You've got to take every thought captive, and you can only do that by the word of God. Like in a house, if you if you had a house, and my house lights were flickering, so I'm gonna look into this. But in a house that needs to be wired, the lights will start to flicker, the breakers will pop. You'll go to plug in and it'll go. Maybe you've never had that, but I have. You know something is wrong, and the only way to fix it is to put brand new in so you know that it will work. For us, that's distractions when you're thinking of God and all. Of a sudden, you're thinking about this, or you're going over here, or you're afraid your marriage is gonna fail, or you're afraid your kids won't love Jesus. You're no different than the house that needs to be rewired. You got things flickering and breaking that are eventually gonna explode and burn you down. You need to be rewired. And I thought, well, ladies, you'll get this if you got straight hair. And if I curl my hair on Monday, likely I gotta curl my hair on Tuesday. Right? Men, you'll get this. If you mow the yard this week and it's normal weather, you're gonna need to mow the yard again. So we've got to be rewired over and over and over and over. I can cast a demon out of you, I can pray for you to be healed, but your job is to rewire your mind with the word of God. I cannot do that for you. I can preach it, you can hear it, but you are accountable for rewiring your own mind. He gave you the best tool, the Bible. So Romans 10, 17, faith come by hearing and hearing the word of God. So I looked up the Greek word and I'll spell it A-K-O-E. It means more than hear sound entering the ear. It means hearing with understanding and receiving. Understanding and receiving. Which means if I take in the word and I understand it, when somebody says, hey, I can't drive at night because my eyes are blind. And if I understood the word and I received it, I'll lay hands upon them like Jesus and I'll expect to see their eye open. If I don't receive it, I'll be like, right? We'll turn. We won't pray because we're not rewired with the word of God. We're like, that's not my problem. That's somebody else's problem. Well, God can't heal. Maybe if I pray, it won't work. You need to be rewired to know what the word of God says. He said, lay hands upon the sick and they will recover. You have an accountability to do what the word of God says. I asked the kids, you read your Bible every day? Yeah. Well, I may be on vacation. You want Jesus to be on vacation for you when you need him? Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God. If you're not reading it, your faith ain't gonna grow. Right? That's a big deal. Not all hearing produces faith. In God. It'll produce faith in something. Maybe yourself, maybe your business, maybe your kids, maybe what you're doing. Faith only received produces, when it's only heard, it produces faith. When the word of God is received, it produces faith. So I was going another way and I was sitting there, and the Lord's like, and I'm sure you guys may have revelation on this, but I got it last night, and I'm very excited because it changed me. So in Matthew 13, Jesus, you know, Jesus is speaking throughout the Bible, and it'd be like a teacher teaching in class. Well, pretend you're my class and I'm your teacher, and I'm saying the same thing to each and every one of you. But are you all gonna receive it? Because we're gonna test later, and I don't know that you're all gonna get A's. But the same word was given to every child, but they all didn't receive it the same way. You can raise three kids the same, and I doubt they're all gonna be the same. You spanked them the same, you spoke to them the same, you fed them the same way, but they're all different. Right? It was no different. Jesus spoke to the Pharisees and the Sadducees and everybody around him. Did they all become children of God? No. Some heard but didn't receive, right? Sometimes it's not the ear problem, it's the heart problem. Where's your heart postured at? Did you come in here ready to receive? Did you come in here broken? Either way is fine. Just don't leave that way. So Matthew 13, 3. Then he spoke many things to them in parables, saying, Behold the sower went out to sow. I thought, okay, I got this one day. Because somebody always used to say, you know, as a pastor, you're the bus driver. You drive the bus, they get on, they get off, they get on, they get off. I'm like, that's a lot, because sometimes they bring their baggage and I don't know what to do with it. And the Lord said, You're not the bus driver, Sarah, you're the sower. Sow the seeds, sow the word. So start preaching the word. Each and every one of you. Be a sower of the word. Preach it. And then four, and he sowed some fell on the wayside, and the birds came and devoured them. They heard, but they didn't receive. How many times do you hear, but you don't receive? Some fell on stony places where they did not have much earth, and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth. But when the sun was up, there were scorched, and because they had no root, they withered away. So these they heard, they received. But when it got hot, they withered. They didn't rewire their brain. They didn't rewire their mind with the word of God. They just withered away. And some fell among the thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them. They heard, they received, but the word came in, and they believed it as truth. They needed to be rewired, but they weren't. Oh, but there's good news. But when they but when others fell on good ground and yielded a crop, some hundred, some thirty, some some sixty, some thirty. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. They heard, they received, and they kept renewing because their yield increased. You may start at 30, but tomorrow I'm going to be at 60, and then I'm going to be at 100. Don't stay where he says your bottom is. Keep progressing because the word of God will take you from here to him. All the way from here to him is where the word of God will take you if you renew your mind. So Romans 12, 1 through 2, and I beseech you. I think I know what that means, but I'm not so sure. So Google has great answers. An urgent plea. You therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, wholly, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is good and acceptable and the perfect will of God. We can't be rewired if we aren't willing to sacrifice to be renewed. And I thought, oh, do we know what a sacrifice is? Do we know what a sacrifice is? So the Lord took me to Genesis 22. Abraham. God talks to Abe. And it's okay to shorten his name. In Genesis 2, then he said, Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you. 3. So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey and took of his young men, two of his young men, Isaac, his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering and arose and went to the place in which God had told him. Is there any proof he heard? Is there any proof he received? He chopped wood. He chopped wood and he got his son. His mind was wired on God because he knew the promise. He'd renewed his mind that he would be a father of many nations, and the promise was coming through his son. Genesis 22, 7. But Isaac spoke to Abraham, his father, and said, My father. And he said, Here I am, my son. Then he said, Look at the fire and the wood. Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering? Huh. What we gonna do? The moment someone speaks and it doesn't line up with the word of God, you need to rewire yourself. It was his son, not somebody against him, somebody he loved. Daddy, where's the wood? Daddy, there's the wood, and you got the fire, and you got the knife. Daddy, I don't see the lamb. Where is it? You know, Abe could have been like, Well, I don't know. I don't know, I don't know. You know, we're doomed. I don't know, we're gonna go up the hill, but we get up there, we may not do what we're told to do, and God said to do this, and I don't know, and I've died, and I've unbelieved, I don't know. It's not what he did. It's not what he did. He rewired with truth. Genesis 22, 8. And Abraham said, My son, God will provide for himself the lamb for the burnt offering. So the two went together. God will provide the burn offering. All you have to do is be willing to give all. Abid heard and received the promise of the true of the father. Have you heard the promise of the father? Do you know his truth? But I thought, wow, Isaac had to hear the truth too and receive it. Because I'm thinking, you know, Isaac's a pretty big, I don't know, I'm thinking he's a Cameron, you know, and I don't know what daddy looks like, but you know, Cameron's pretty well built. He I think he can take a lot of us. And he's got the wood. As the men laugh. But it's okay, Cameron. I've seen him run. He's pretty fast. Maybe he can outrun you. Oh, that's funny. Then uh Genesis uh 9. Then they came to the place which God had told them, and Abram built the altar there and placed the wood in order, and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar upon the wood. It tells me that Isaac had heard the truth. It tells me that he knew there was a promise coming. He didn't know what it was, but he allowed himself to be bound and put on that wood, knowing he was the sacrifice. He'd heard, but he'd received truth. Have you heard? Have you received truth? Are you willing to lay down your life? Are you willing to submit to God? Are you willing to do exactly what he says so God gets glory? Because when we cheap out or when we decide, no, I can't do that, it'll be somebody else's job. No, God gets no glory. God gets no glory if you're a chicken. Rewire your mind and set your thoughts on things ahead, things above, things greater than you. You're just a part of God's plan, but he needs you. And Abram stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. I'm thinking, this is a lot of rewired man. But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, Abraham, Abraham, sound. Sound. He called. He had to be listening to hear and receive it. He said, Here I am. And he said, Don't lay your hands on the lad or do anything to him, for I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son from me. Let that sink in. God loves you so much that he gave his only son for each and every one of you. Knowing the way is provided for all, but all will not choose. We've got to rewire our minds like God. He gave us a mind like Christ, so you start with something new. What you contaminate it with is on you. But what you rewire it with makes you like God. So you think, how do we rewire? Well, I've told you the word of God, right? And I don't know, probably 99% of Americans have a Bible or can get access to one, right? But if you can't identify the lie, you don't know what to do with it. If you don't know it's a lie, you don't know what to do with it, right? Then you gotta find scripture. I won't tell you that I know where everything is in this Bible. I ask Google if I don't. And there's no shame in it. Then I go read it to make sure Google has given me the correct advice. There's no shame in having to have help to find something. There's shame in not getting help. Because the enemy will use that against you. So you gotta hear it, you gotta speak it, you gotta think it, you gotta live it. When you rewire your mind, there'll be nothing that comes against you that you can't rewire it with the word of God. Lies will come, people will come, people will hurt you, people will lie to you, things will happen, but it doesn't change who God is. God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His word never changes, it never goes void unless you lay it down. We have to take up the word of God to be rewired on a daily nosis so we aren't the world. We aren't hypocrites. We aren't walking around to and fro. We aren't being thrown around by every donor. Oh, the world's ending tomorrow. Oh my goodness. What does God say? Nobody knows the time or the hour. Yeah, it looks like he's coming, but he's coming back for a victorious church. He's not coming back for a defeated Christian hiding in a closet, hold, you know, holding toilet paper and praying. He fed with the ravens. If you don't think our God will take care of you, you're gonna need to rewire your mind now. Because it may get a lot worse. But in the storm of there's no, not that the storm will not come, but in Jesus Christ we're stealing. How steal are you with the storms that are going on now? Because I'm telling you, they ain't nothing. Right? So every scripture you believe is new wiring, every promise you confess is new wiring, every lie you reject is new wiring. Every person you share Jesus with, new wiring, new wiring, new wiring. Pray for someone, new wiring. Woo! And it's okay. We were all at a point we weren't rewired. We were all at a point we didn't know how to pray. We were all at a point we didn't know how to do it. But today's a new day. God is faithful, his mercy endures forever. He's gonna say, Here I am, let's go. The God of creation, you are not alone. The God of creation is inside each and every one of you. Do you not think he has words to give out of you if he's in you? It's not about you. When we get over, it's about me. He can get out of us, it's about him and what he did. Lucy talked the other night about the caterpillar turning into the butterfly. Let Jesus metamorphosize you from the butt the worm to the butterfly that's beautiful, and you can't go back into the worm. You can't go back. You've been made a beautiful creation, you've been made alive, you've been made whole, you've been made righteous, you've been everything that He is. Don't go back, right? Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I've been kind of fast. Okay, we put on some music, uh Corlin, please. So as I was thinking about the woman at the well, I may need this. Don't go ahead. Um, thinking about the woman at the well. And I thought she came to the well, and from what they say, she came um, you know, in the hot of the day. She came by herself, and she brought her bucket. You know, and I'm thinking, she's got her bucket, but she got a lot in her bucket. You know, she's brought shame, you know, rejection. She's out there by herself, and that's not the custom. So when you get away from the flock, I read, I was at a house the other day and I read their uh their doormat. And it said, basically, I'm an invert, text before you knock on my door. Referring to that they don't want people around. That's how the enemy alienates you. He gets you alone and makes you think no one loves you. You can do it all by yourself, but you can't. So the woman went to the well by herself. But Jesus was there. She was a little, uh, I think she's a little rude to him. Who are you? Why are you here? And he asked for a drink, and she's like, You want me to get a drink, really? Do you know who I am? You don't even speak to me. You know how people are. Because when we're hurt, anger and rejection and bitterness comes out of us. We may not know it, but the joy of the Lord should be upon us. It should flow out of us naturally if we're rewired in him. And he said, I'll give you living water. Oh. She liked the thought of that. She wouldn't have to come to the well anymore. He was trying to rewire with the word, but she hadn't received it yet. Then he says, Uh. He talks to her about her five husbands. He said, Bring me your husband, or something like that. And she says, I don't have a husband. And he's like, No, you've had five, and the one you're with now is not your husband. But I thought, wow, he must have said it in a way there was no condemnation. He spoke truth, and truth is not wrong. How you receive it is. Because after that, she left and she didn't take her bucket, but she went running home to her village. Let me tell you about a man who told me everything I've done. But he loved me, he took me just as I am, he took me just like I am, and he told me I could have the gift of God. He told me who I could be in him, he told me I could be this way. That's the God we serve. And the way you know she was rewired, the people in the village believed, but then they wanted Jesus. When you know you're rewired correctly and you share the word of God, they will want to be rewired too. So I think there's some of us here today that have brought our buckets in, and it's okay. Because the God I serve is here. He's ready to forgive, he's ready to rewire you. He's ready to let everything that you said about yourself. That's what the kids said. They said the things they hear of their own voices are worse than what people say. What you think about yourself is usually worse than what others say. What are you saying about yourself that doesn't line up with the word of God? Because the God of creation made you in his image. When he comes to live in you and he looks down, he sees himself in you. He sees you, sees himself. He loves you so much, so much. He doesn't care about your bucket. Let it go. What we had is no longer what we are. So the altars are open. But I believe that when we don't renew our mind on a daily, even sometimes minute to minute, when the enemy is lying and trying to defeat us because he came to steal, kill, and destroy. But read the rest: God came to give life and life more abundantly. But if you're not renewing your life, you're being stolen, you're being robbed, you're being killed by the enemy because he's telling you lies that don't line up with the word of God. But if you don't know the word of God, you'll never line up with the word of God. But I'm telling you, the word of God says, for God so loved the world that he came for you. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believed in him shall not perish but have eternal life. You are the world. You are not too broken that he cannot come to you. You are not too broken that he won't say, Here I am. Whatever it is, I've got you. And today is a new day, a day of salvation. So zoed, healed, delivered, set free, made whole. Are you renewing your mind? Are you letting yourself be delivered? Are you letting yourself be healed? Are you letting it preserve? I'm preserved. In the image of Christ, can you receive that? Can you believe his word is true? He watches over his word to perform it. So put it in your mind, get it into your spirit, and watch him perform it. It's not about you, it's about him, the God of creation. Rewire yourself. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So there may be some of you here that don't know him. You think that lady's just a yakking, and I don't have a clue what she's talking about. But when she was talking, I felt something. I felt a drawing to know that I could be loved. I felt a drawing to know that there's something else. I don't understand it, I don't know, but I know I feel something that all my past, my thieving, my stealing, my acting just like the devil can be erased in one instant. One instant it can be erased if you will receive Jesus Christ. So the altars are open. If there's anybody who wants to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord, and it's simple, it's a commitment. The first part has been done. Jesus has made a way for every person, every drug dealer, every scummy person, every thief, every rapist, every molester, everybody has a chance to be redeemed by Jesus Christ and the blood and what he paid for. So don't let the enemy lie to you and tell you you're unworthy. You'll never be changed. Do not let him lie. God says you are loved, and that's all you have to know to receive. As you come, you just say, Jesus, I'm sorry. I didn't know. Forgive me. And he says, Yes. He'll never say no. He'll never say no. He's so good. But if there's anybody here who needs prayer, if there's anybody that needs somebody to agree with the word of God or give them the word of God to be able to renew their mind, we're here. We believe in healing. We believe in deliverance. We believe in speaking in tongues. Believe that God is alive and risen and Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father. We believe the Holy Spirit lives in us, therefore we are alive. But if you don't rewire yourself, the junk starts to diminish the light by your choice. Hallelujah. Is there anybody? Okay, let's stand up. Sometimes it's easier, right? Satan's a liar and he's defeated and he's under your feet if you know it. But if you don't know it now, I'm asking you to hear. Hear the word of the Lord. Jesus defeated Satan and he is under your foot if you're a child of God. You have rights and authorities in what Jesus Christ has done. You know no longer a slave. You are an heir. You are a child of the Most High King. You have rights, you have powers. If you submit to God, resist the devil, he will flee. But stop waiting on him to flee. Submit now. Submit now. Submit now. Resist what he's saying. Resist it, and the word says he has to flee. If that's all you know for the next week, God, I'm submitting, I'm resisting, and the word says he has to flee. I have a sound mind, power and love. Sound mind, power and love. Find you a few scriptures that can make you be rewired. Start with one and say it over and over and meditate on it and eat it until it becomes in your spirit, and out of that spirit starts to grow the word of God to heal you, to set you free, but for others, for others. Like Dan says, we can walk around and be okay. But it's not okay if others around you are not okay. And you have truth and you have power. What are we doing for the ones around us? We're going to Salvation Army next weekend. I would hope that all of you are there. And this is not manipulation because Jesus has made us the hands and feet. And the hands and feet is just not in this church. There'll be homeless there. There'll be people there that don't know who Jesus are. There'll be people that don't know who their identity in Christ is. There'll be people that just need to be loved. There'll be people that just need a hug. Are you willing to get out of your comfort zone? Are you willing to participate in what Jesus says? Go make disciples, heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons. Are we willing to do that? Then rewire your mind so you can do it. But stop waiting on God to do it because He's already done everything He's gonna do. He's made you the head and not the tail. He's put you above and not below. He's blessed you in the city and He's blessed you in the country. He's given you everything you need. Stop lacking and blaming God when things are getting done. We've got to take accountability. We've got to rise up. Rewire your mind. Today is the day I will tell somebody about Jesus. Today is the day I'll lay hands on the sick and then we'll raise. Don't expect to do it and then not to happen. If you don't see it, we walk by faith. It doesn't matter if I don't see Pastor Dan walk today. Don't matter. I walk by faith, not by sign. It isn't gonna change who God is. You don't stop praying just because you don't see. You must see in the spirit to be able to receive it, but to proclaim it, to have it come out of your mouth. And when you do it, you don't have doubt and you don't have fear. And when you do it, you see results of who God is. Woo! Hallelujah! Hallelujah.

Maybe you need some help being rewired. We've been tearing down some buildings, and my air compressor hadn't started like in a month, and I kept thinking it was a battery, and I was just starting it by hand. I was out there messing with it earlier, and it just had a wire off of it. I'm telling you, it might be just that simple with what's going on in your life. That that wire needs to be connected back, and then you'll be connected right back to the battery and you'll start. So I'm telling you. You know, Jesse had a great word the other night, but she said, you know, it's okay not to be okay, but it's not okay to stay that way. And I'm telling you, maybe you need some help. We're here, we're here to help you. We're here to guide you to the word of God. We're here to guide you to the word of God to get you free. I'm telling you today, there's there's freedom from what's going on in your life. And 99.99% of it's in your mind. What people, well, what's so-and-so thinking about me? What's this? What's that? You know, it don't matter what so-and-so's thinking about you. It matters that what God says about you, and God says you're a new creation in Christ. The old things are gone, behold, all things have become new. The word of God says, submit to God, resist the devil, he will flee, draw near to God, he'll draw near to you. The word of God says, You're you're more a conqueror. You know, it's like like some people's like, man, I wish we had a book to tell us how to live, but but he gave us one, and it's a and it's one of promises. And as you begin to take them thoughts captive, it's something you can really do. He wouldn't put, he wouldn't say, take thoughts captive if you couldn't take thoughts captive. He wouldn't say submit to God if you couldn't submit to God. He wouldn't say resist the devil if you couldn't resist the devil. But it's some things that you have to do. It's some things you have to do. Like Pastor Sarah said, wonderful word. I was wanting to get born again again. I thought, amen. And uh, but like she said, the Lord has done it all on Calvary, but you have to receive it. You have to receive the healing from him, you have to receive uh you have to be born again from him, you have to receive uh salvation from him, deliverance from him. So, so whatever it is that that's going on in your life today, I'm telling you, you do not have to walk out that door the same. You do not have to. It's your choice if you leave the same. It's it's it's a choice that you make. But man, he he is a He is a great God. Amen. And we're beginning, it's awesome to see people walking in their identity in Christ and their authority in Christ and knowing their blood covenants in Christ. Thank you, Lord. Knowing their blood covenants and their and their regular covenants. And also we are a uh Canale Ministry Training Center through the Christ Fellowship Church in Dawsonville, Georgia. So if you're if you're hungry for more, if you're wanting like a some schooling to help you, to guide you, to point you to God, Pastor Karen is a wonderful teacher, and she says, you know, those of you that in Canale 1 and 2, you know, it's like, I'll make you love Jesus, and she will uh create a hunger in you, but and and it will equip you, and and we need to be equipped for the work of the ministry. So, hallelujah. Oh, Father, we thank you, Father, we praise you, Lord. Lord, for this great day today, Lord. Lord, and we honor you, Lord, and we worship you, Lord, as we go out, Lord. Lord, as we are your hands and your feet and your mouthpiece, Lord. Lord, and may your kingdom come and your will be done, Lord, right here in our lives, Lord, just as it is in heaven. In Jesus' name. Amen.
