Reformation: The Father is Waiting

Welcome back to The Gathering Tabernacle Podcast! Happy Father's Day to all you fathers out there! Sometimes, we take time for granted and need to spend more time with our loved ones. You are called to be a new wineskin. Stop walking in your old ways and walk in the newness of life Christ has given you. Do you view your heavenly Father as you do your earthly father? God is more than just giving disciplinary action. God loves you so much! There is a shaking happening that is going to reveal things in your life to bring you closer to Christ. Are you willing to be shaken? Do you know that you know Jesus? Does your family know that they will spend eternity with Him? Do you love your family enough to share the truth with them? The Father is waiting.

When you take it, ask God how to become more good news. Ask God how to lead your family more in faith and how to become like Jesus. So, Father, thank you for this day. Thank you for each father and each man that is here, Lord, as you bless them with an abundance of knowledge, of knowing if they know you, the good news is within them. And you want the good news to go across this nation, starting with their family and starting to each and every person they come into contact with. Thank you, Father, for the good news of Jesus Christ, for it will endure forever. It will never change. Your word won't go void. The blood is still alive. You are risen, you are high, lifted up, you are holy and righteous. Let us declare you are good in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

What he's done, he's come, he's took stripes for your healing, he's come to shed his blood through your sin. And that is what he's done. All glory and the honor to the Son. So give him a big hallelujah. Amen. Big hallelujah. Amen. Thank you, thank you, thank you. God bless you. Happy Father's Day, 2026. Amen. Praise the Lord. The drought's over. So, so uh, so I can follow me. But anyway, so praise the Lord. Let it rain. Holy Spirit, let it rain. Let the rain come down. Let the rain come down. Man, happy Father's Day. Be sure and send your dad a happy Father's Day and tell him how much you love him. So thinking about there, you know, once your dad goes on to be in Glory Land, which is great, he's more alive than he's ever been, but then you realize that, hey, well, my dad's not here no more, you know. And uh, you know, I think a lot of times we're always we're always so busy and we don't spend the time we should uh with loved ones and everything. So so spend time with your with your dad, spend time with your parents, spend time with your spouse, spend time with your pastor, right? Amen. Amen. So man, it's uh raining now. I like it. That's why we got a metal roof, so we can take a nap. All right. I haven't got my kayak out this year, but I think I could this afternoon. I'll just float it right through the yard. Right? In the yard. That's right. That's right. Come to think about it, I haven't got my kayak out in a few years. Thanks, Scott. You could invite me to go kayak and then I get my kayak out. But we won't mention no names. I think I'm too late. Oh. It's peaceful to be out on the creek. I like that. I like floating. I've tried three different guys to set up a floating trip, but if someone here will set up a floating trip, I'll gladly go. And uh it's gonna be fabulous. There you go. Amen. All right, then we got a special testimony today. Oh, first before that, uh, we're a Caneo Ministry Training Center. You guys remember that? I hadn't mentioned it uh lately, but there's actually several people here in uh in the Caneo uh ministry training. And uh actually on uh Friday night up in Joplin they had a graduation that Wendy King puts on, and uh she does a fabulous job. And and uh Lori just finished year four too, right? Three, okay, sorry. Yeah, so so Corlin uh graduated, she just done year four, and then Lori's just done year three. And Sandra and Scott's in year two, Miskowski's in year two, and Andrew, Jesse, and Lindsay are all in year one. And then did I miss anybody? Miss Mary, you didn't do it this year, did you? Which is no condemnation in that, I'm just saying. But but uh Miss Mary's been through three years. Miss Mary's been through three years, so amen. And it and it's neat, but but uh uh I want to have Lindsay come up, not testify about Canale Ministry Training Center, but to testify and Canale Ministry Training Center, it is it's through the North Georgia Revival, it's through uh Christ Fellowship Church in Dawsonville, Georgia. And I don't know if you know or most of you are aware of that I know, but uh uh Pastor Karen does year one and two, and she says, I'll make you love Jesus, you know, and uh and and she will because she'll make you fall in love with the word. And when you get just a little nugget of just anything, it'll make you just fall in love with him and want more. So we was up in um uh Aurora this week at Faithful Gospel at a fellowship meeting with Brother Bob and and it actually it was awesome. I mentioned it last week, but but Lindsay got up and and spoke and gave a word, and Jesse got up and preached, and then Papa Bob got up and preached, and I thought, you know, three generations great granddaughter, granddaughter, and and grandpa or whatever, but all got up and then but Lindsay, they were all great, but I was gonna ask Lindsay to share what the Lord had revealed to her, and and it it and she forgot her notes, and I'm like, well, if it makes you feel better, Lindsay, I don't have none today either, but but uh it's written on the tablet of her heart and and to see to see how how people's growing, I mean it just it's just a true, true blessing. So Lindsay come up and and share the word with us. Amen. Good job. I'm proud of you.

SPEAKER_01 6:35

So what I what I talked about was on new wine, and I went to John 2 9. When the master of the beast had tasted the water that was made wine and did not know where it came from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew. The master of the beast called the bridegroom, and he said to him, Every man at the beginning sends out the good wine. Then when the guests have all have well drunk, then the inferior, you have kept the good wine until now. The revelation that Jesus gave When we were without Christ, we were the water, not the ordinary. And then he turned us into the new wine, which is better than the water, so says the magic of the And then he took me over Luke 5, 36. 38. Then he spoke a parable to them. No one puts a piece of a new garment on an old one, otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old. And no one puts new wine into old wineskins, or else the new wine will burst, the wineskins will and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. But the new wine must be put into new wineskins and both are preserved. So what it w what the revelation in that was if it were the new wine, the old wineskins are the world's ways of sin. And the new wineskins is our new our new nature. So also with the garment the new makes it hair. So the way we should live as children of God should not match the world. And that word hair. And I looked up and it was a word disrupted. And it was like metal fragment stuff like that. I can't remember all of them. And we don't want that. We don't want that. And that was pretty much all I had.

SPEAKER_02 9:24

Good job. Amen. Excites me all over. Excites me all over. Isn't that fabulous? Amen. So you new wine or your old wine? Are you new wineskins or the old wineskins? Yeah, amen. Our new nature shouldn't look like our old nature. Amen. Amen. Why? Because you're a new creation in Christ. The old things are gone. Behold, all things have become new. I'm not who I used to be. I don't identify with my past. I identify with Christ's past. I identify with him. But the world wants to hold you back to where you was. Right, Anthony? They want to hold you back to the way you used to be. Well, no, that's not who I am. That's not who I am. I died. I actually died to my old wineskin on September 16th in 2011. I died and I become alive with Christ. I got a new wineskin. And I haven't went back to the old. There's times I thought about, well, I'll go back to the old, but it but I never never have. But that temptation sometimes gets there to me, then I say, devil, just get on out of here. Right? So in Luke chapter 15, Luke chapter 15. The lost sheep, the lost coin, the lost lost son, the prodigal son. Since here being Father's Day, I want to encourage you that that uh you know God God really does love you. You know, He's not up there waiting for you to mess up and zap you. He's like, man, I really hope they screw up today so I can so I can get up there and zap them. And I believe you're gonna see through the through the eyes of the through the eyes of the word, through the eyes of your understanding, just how much God loves you and how much God wants you to be free, how much he wants you to be healed, and how much he wants you to be his child. Um he's talking here first, you know, he's talking about the uh the lost sheep and the lost coin, and I'm and I'm thinking about has everyone anyone ever had a lost sheep or lost baby calf or lost puppy or lost kitten or or you ever had a lost kitten? How do you know it's lost? Because it wasn't there? And then what did you hear out of the kitten? You didn't hear nothing out of the kitten? Well, that backfired on me. But but but but but what what did you hear? What did you hear? You know, if you have a puppy that's away from their litter or uh or a kitten or a baby calf, you know, what about a baby calf? What do you hear? If the baby calf's not with their mama, what will the baby calf be doing? Whining, bawling, yeah. You know, that's the same way a kitten. It'll be be doing the same thing. So so this this sheep, this kitten, this this puppy, this whatever, this puppy, it it knows that it's lost. Right? It you know, it's not that it don't know that it's lost, it it knows that it's lost. So so what what do you do to go find a baby calf? Now, now 10 years ago, if the baby calf was lost, you'd be like, well, you know, it's a hundred bucks. But but now the baby calf is lost, you're like, you know, it's 1500. I don't know if we should put a monetary monetary deal on it or not, but but now I'm thinking like, you know, we're gonna find this calf. But but ten years ago, $100 is more like $1,500 too. So it's all the Tall Tech's aspect. But but you're like, you know what, we're gonna find that baby calf. We're gonna we're gonna find that kitten. We're gonna find that puppy, right? And what does Jesus say here at the uh the end of that? And he would gladly uh sorry. Um I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 just persons who needs no repentance. And he's talking about, hey, uh yeah, he says, you know, he'll call his neighbors and his friends together and rejoice in them and say, you know, I found my sheep, I found my puppy, I found my baby calf that was lost, and and and they're excited about it. And then and then we have the one of this this this lost coin, and and uh has anyone ever ever lost the coin? Has anyone ever lost any any money? Is anyone ever there you go thank for the one honest person in here, Phil? But but you know we we we lose something, but but but did that uh penny feel that that penny feel lost? Did he know that penny was gone? Did he know that $20 bill was gone? Did that $20 bill know that it was missing? Didn't know it was missing, did it? You know it's thinking I was thinking like an ounce of gold. You know how much an ounce of gold's worth now? Mike does, I'm sure. Like $4,400. $4,100 today, actual ACH, ACV. But $4,100 for for an ounce, but but if you had a, I don't know how many you got, maybe you got hundreds of them, praise the Lord. I mean, I'm excited, but but but you know, if you lost that that one ounce, that $4,100 uh of gold, would that would that coin, would that gold coin know that it's lost? No, but but but it's instead but still the the lady, you know, it's let's just read it. I think it'd make more sense. Verse 8. Well, you're right with me. That that's pretty impressive back here. Or what woman having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it. When she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the peace which I have lost. So you see that the same thing. Other one says, Rejoice in me, I found the sheep. Your voice rejoice in me, I found the peace. Likewise I say to you, there is joy in the presence of angels of God over one sinner who repents. So, so what the point is, is the sheep's lost, go find the sheep, the coins lost, that they don't know they're lost. So there's people out there that know they're lost, and they need found. There's people out there that don't know they're lost, and they need found. Right? And then we get on with the prodigal son. Verse 11. Then he said, A certain man had two sons, and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of your goods that falls to me. So he divided them his livelihood. All right, so so we got this son, and and and basically, you know what he's saying, he's like, well, he just wants a little allowance. No, no, he's not saying. He's saying, hey, divide your portion of goods. He's saying, Father, I wish you were dead. Won't you go ahead and give me my allotment of my inheritance right now? And and I'll do it. Well, the father, you know, he just went ahead and did it. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed far away to a far country, and there he wasted his possessions with prodigal living. So, so isn't it interesting? Like, like everyone's like, hey, hey, Lord, give me my inheritance that I have now. Get give that to me. But but but once he got it, you know, he's what did he do? He he went and he he went back into the old wineskin. Right? He went back into the into the water. He went back into that. Say, hey, you know, thank you. I've got it, I've got all this, you know. I I walked an aisle, I prayed a prayer, I've done this, I've done that, I've got what I need, I've got what I need, but but I'm gonna go over here and do this now. Thank you, Lord, that you've given me all I've need. And as he went out, what's we at? 14. But when he had spent all, whoo. Anybody ever been like, I am so getting away with this? I can't believe no one's catching on to what I'm doing. I have got everybody fooled. It's quiet in here. I've got everybody fooled, man. Man, they think I'm this, but man, I got everybody fooled. But I'm telling you, you don't have everybody fooled. You can fool me, you can fool your spouse, you can fool everyone, but you cannot fool God. You cannot fool the Holy Spirit. You know, he he sees every little thing you're doing. So when he but when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in the land, and he began to be in want. So, so when you're when you're there and you're thinking, man, I'm getting away with it, but then this famine hits and you begin to be in want, verse 15. Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed the swine. So I thought, isn't this kind of a picture of how sin works? Hey, hey, I'll go out and and and do my own thing. It'll be all right. I'll just go out and then we go out and then we we spend and then we've we've lost our way of giving. But now we've got to have a way uh to live, something to fill our hunger, something to put food on the table. And it said he he joined himself to a citizen of that country. So so more or less he got a job. More or less he got a job. But the job didn't feed him enough to keep him full. And he sent him into his fields to he got a job feeding swine, which feeding swine back then was was that was the low end of the totem pole. All right, and he sent him into his fields to feed the swine. Verse 16. And he would gladly he gladly would have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything. And you think you think to be in a situation like that if you're you're feeding whether it's cows or dogs or or or whatever it is, but but just thinking about he's feeding the swine and he gladly would have ate the pods. You're thinking, I figured he could have ate the pods anyway, but right? But they don't say that. He said he would have gladly ate the pods, but no one even gave him the pods that even the swine were given. He wasn't even he wasn't even getting by with enough to that he could have ate on what the what the swine had. I thought, oh my gosh. Isn't that what happens when we get away from the from the Father? Isn't that what happens when we get away from from what the Lord has for us? 17 But when he came to himself, I thought, no, that's pretty important. Some say, but when he came to his senses, uh have you guys come to your senses? Amen. I think sometimes, boy, I need to really come to my senses. We're gonna have a uh sometimes I think this was uh I don't sometimes you think about well, should I say that or not? But but uh has anyone's dad ever told them, hey, we're gonna have a come to Jesus meeting? You know, means just getting ready to get lined out. Don't know if that's the best analogy of how Jesus says it, but uh, but anyway, uh that that was what was used at my house, and and that's all that had to be said because I believed my dad and and I believe what he said would be done, and and it didn't take very many whippings from him. I don't even remember ever getting a whipping from him, but I I do know that Mike Titchener got plenty of them. So so after after hearing hearing, he spent all of them on Mike, Mike and my brother, and I guess he could swing a pig whip, but you know, I don't maybe I should veer back on to the man, this is like swine and pigs. Did they did they feed you the did they feed you the what the pigs ate or not? I don't I don't know. But when he came to himself, he thought, how many of my father's hired servants have bread enough to spare and perish? How many of their hired servants have enough have bread enough to spare and I perish with hunger? So he said, Hey now. When I was home, that was alright. Keep going. You're doing good. I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. Now think about this. You know, he's getting his senses together and he says, I will arise and go to my father and say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. So so has he said this to his father, or is this just something he's thinking that he's gonna do? Yeah, see, he's just thinking he's gonna do it. You know, a lot of times he might read it and say, Well, he went to his father and he said, Father, you know I've I've sinned against you, but but it don't say that. He said, He's getting this in his mind. This is what I'll do. I'll arise and go to my father. And will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you. And I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants. So this is all in his mind. Man, if I go home and and I do this, then I'll tell him this. And then then do you guys play that scenario over in your head? Boy, my you know, why is he thinking, you know, my father's so mad at me? He left. I took his his inheritance. I went out and I squandered it all. I've, you know, I've become basically a citizen of another country, and I'll go this. Well, you know, well, well, I lied to dad and I did this to him and he'll never forgive me, but man, I gotta go home. I gotta get help from somewhere. And and you play this all over in your mind that that that your that your dad is is mad at you, that that that he's gonna have to hold this all this stuff against you, and you need you need his you need what he has for you. You need him to say, well, you know, if you'll do so many of this and so many of that, and if you'll go through so much therapy and you'll you'll do so much of this, and then we get all this stuff going in our heads. But look at what the father does. Um verse 20. And he arose and came to his father when he was still a great way off. No, no, no, what do you think about a uh a great way off is? Do you think a great way off is is from me to Stacey in the back? Do you do you consider us a a great way off? In the back? You don't consider that a great way off? Do you consider, do you consider hard to see from here, but do you consider here to waiting a great way off? You know, probably not that far because he would have seen him coming, but enough that that he could make out who was coming, but but a great way off. And I don't know if the wind was blowing, but but sometimes, you know, I'll be what I would call a great way off, and Pastor Sarah will be hollering at me, and um, and I'm gonna start saying, I'm I'm a great way off, I can't hear you. You can see me, but but I'm a great way off. There's a wind blowing between us, like there's a skid steer running, there's there's uh all this stuff, but but a great way off to me a great way off enough where you or you can't really communicate with someone, but you but you know by what they look like that that that's who it is. Oh my god, look here, here comes my son. I haven't seen him in years. Uh and when he arose and came to his father, but when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion on him, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. Now, does that what it would look like for you? Is that what it looked like in your life? Is that what it looked like what's going on in your life? When you abandoned some woman and they come back and say, Well, what were you thinking? I'm gonna do you come back one day. You finally got your stuff stuff together. I mean, how do we respond to people? What when they truly are trying to repent and come back to God. I think this is a perfect example of how how we should how it should be happening. And when he saw him and had compassion on him and ran and kissed him. Oh man, son, I'm so glad to see you. I'm so glad to see you. I've missed you so much. I knew you'd come back. No, I've been praying you would come back. I knew you'd get your stuff together. No, no, son, I just love you. And I'm just so glad you're here. 21. And the son said to him, Father, I've sinned against heaven, and in your sight, I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. And the father said, You're right, you shouldn't be called my son. It don't say that, does it? For Father, I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. But the but it says the father said to his servants, bring out the best robe. You know, and I thought about that. You know, it didn't say bring out the robe he used to wear, or bring out the bring out don't bring out a very good one. Go get a robe for the son, servant. Don't get a very good one though, because we don't know how long he's gonna be here. He already ran off once. And then we sit there and we speak of all this garbage. But he's like, no, there's my son. Go get the best robe for him. Go get a good robe, and that and that robe was restoration. That robe was forgiveness. That robe was restoring his tonship. He said, He said, Here, here, let's let's put a robe on it. Let's forgive him, let's restore him, let's put him back into the tonship. He thought, man, that's good enough. Just a robe's good enough, right? No, hey, and put a ring on his hand. Put a ring on his hand. You got a ring on your hand? Sure got a ring on her. That's a nice one. Who got that for you? She got a ring on her hand. Unity, right? Authority. It's like, let's restore him. Let's give him some authority. Let's put some sandals on his feet. Now, what's the big deal about sandals on a feet? See, back in this culture in this time, the servants were barefooted. The servants went barefoot. But the others actually had shoes on. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. So let's cover him. Let's cover him. Let's restore him. Let's give him authority. Let's show him that he's come back, but he's not a slave. Let's restore him. Thank you, Lord God. Oh, and then there's more. Twenty-three. And bring the fatted calf here. And kill it. And let us eat and be merry. Bring the fatted calf. It's not like go out and get that old scroungy heifer. You know, it wasn't it wasn't go out and get the goat. Man, go out and get the fatted calf. Man, let's have a feast. Man, my son's home. 24. For this my son was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found. And they began to be merry. And they began to be merry. That's how much God loves you. That's how God wants to restore you today. That's how He wants to heal you today. That's how He wants to set you free today. You see, I kind of had this not so much anymore, but you kind of have this mentality that God is like your earthly father. That God's like your earthly father, right? And then so how many's ever been like now you wait till your dad gets home. Right? You wait till your dad gets home. You wait till your dad gets home. And I didn't think about this till we was um I was talking with a lady one time and she said, you know, I had a I thought God was like my dad, and my dad was always working daylight till dark and didn't seem hardly ever, but he was the one that did the discipline. And I think dad should do discipline too. I'm not saying dad shouldn't do discipline. But so her the way she looked at God was the way she looked at her dad, and so she would always be like, now now wait till your dad gets home. Wait till your dad gets home. So they only looked at him as being being disciplined disciplinary, blah blah blah. And not loving. And if you love your p child, you'll discipline them too, but but I'm telling you, God loves you. And he wants to free you today from what's been going on in your past. Maybe you've been running. We can stand, Andrew, you can put something on. Maybe you've been running, maybe you've been hiding. But I'm saying, he sees you. He sees you. It says he sees him from a from a far off. He sees you. And notice with the the prodigal son, what's interesting here about the the prodigal son testimony is they didn't go look for him, right? They went and looked for the sheep, they went and looked for the coin, but they didn't go look for the son. Because when you willingly walk away from the Lord, you have to willingly go back to him. And he is waiting for you to come back to him. He's not putting no condemnation, he's no condemnation in Christ Jesus. For God so loved the world, he gave his only son. That whosoever believes in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but they might be saved. Sozo Greek, saved, healed, set free, delivered, made whole. I'm telling you, today is the day of salvation. I didn't think about it till I've been blessed with my mom's only been married once, so I'm not saying we've had three dads, but had a stepdad and then Sarah's dad. Sarah's mom and dad divorced, so I had two stepdads basically. So I didn't think about it till yesterday and I was over there, and I said, you know, I just realized like you're the you're the only dad I have left. You know, I had another stepdad pass away a few months ago. But I'm telling you, the Father God, he will never leave you or never forsake you. He will He is there for you. He is there, and He's there with arms wide open. He condemnation is not a Him. Condemnation is you being rebellious towards Him, and then it creates it in the enemy creates that in your head. So whatever it may be today. Thank you, Lord God. Thank you, Lord. Maybe you're like, you know, I I'm tired of running. I'm tired of running. Tired of doing things my own way. I was with the Lord, but then I ran out and tried to do things on my own. I'm telling you, he's here. Restoration is here today. Authority is here today. Freedom is here today. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord, who the sun sets free is free indeed. Lord, we speak freedom. Isn't it fabulous to live in? Our country's gonna be 250 years old here in a week and a half or so. And isn't it fabulous to live in a in a country that's that celebrates the freedom in Christ? We thank you, Lord. Or as we just soak in your presence, Lord.

There's a shaking going on in the atmosphere. There's a shaking going on. And the Lord says, I came for the lost sheep who knew about me. I came for the ones who didn't know about me. But when he talked about the prodigal who'd walked away, there's no way back unless you come. There's no other way back unless you come. And we may not be prodigals, but we may have prodigals in our house or in our families. There's a shaking going on, and I believe right where they are now, they're hearing the call of the Lord. And the Lord is wanting us to pray. He's wanting us to petition for the lost sons and daughters out there. They may think they're okay, but a little leaven spoils the whole loaf. A little bit of sin that they're living in is not righteous and holy. And God says they must be shaken. They must hear what I am saying. They must repent to come home. I'm watching, I'm waiting, I'm here. And when they repent and turn to him, they are restored to royalty. The ring, the robe, the shoes, our children will no longer be slaves to this world. But if we don't hunger and thirst for God, the righteousness will not come out of us and they will not see. Today is the day we have to become holy and righteous and be ready to serve the King of Kings, Lord of Lords. So, Father, shake us. If there's anything in us that makes us unholier and righteouser to be in your presence, Lord, shake us so hard that we see who we are, that we replant in the mighty name of Jesus and we give it to you. And I think the greatest love the Father can give is we go to our children and we let them know that they are loved. We let them know that what they're doing, what they're doing doesn't line up with the word of God. But the father is waiting, the father is waiting, the father is waiting, the father is waiting. Today is the day of salvation, today is the salvation. Is there anybody here who needs to be praying on their face for their children? Is there anybody here who needs to be praying for their lost husband or their lost wife or their lost co-worker? Is there anybody here who needs to know that they know that their family, you've asked them, have you asked them? Do they know they know the King of Kings? Or are we just happy to settle and hope they make it? Because when we're looking at them, do we see Jesus? Do we see Jesus? Is there anybody else that needs prayer? Is there anybody else that needs a healing? Is there anybody else that needs their mind transformed into the image of Christ? Because we'll partner with you with the Word of God. We'll show you what the Word of God says. The thought of where the past, the ones that have passed, my stepdad, he passed about a month ago, two months, whatever. But I remember that night him telling me, you know, Sarah, I had for an hour I shook so hard with a fever. I shook so hard, but I thought, it's okay. I'm going home to Jesus. I'm going home to Jesus. Do you know you're going home to Jesus? Do we know our family members are going home to Jesus? Because we love them so much to tell them. But if we don't tell them, who's gonna? The good news has been put within you. The good news was shared today with you. Go multiply and be fruitful in the kingdom of God. Don't leave your family lost and expecting somebody else to tell them. Because nobody's gonna. Most of the time. There'll be a few. You were created in the image of Christ. You were made the head and not the tail. You were above and not below. You have been given the knowledge of Christ. Christ, you are great because he is great. You can do anything because Christ is in you. You have the blood. Apply the blood to every situation and walk in freedom. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Woo! Jesus is King.
