So we yield to him. And one way is prayer. Thank God for the avenue of prayer. So let's pray. We need help. Amen. Need to yield to his help because he's always already in the notion that his personality. Right. A helper. So Father, we just worship you again this morning. We thank you again for your plan, your purpose in the pursuit of that plan. We thank you again for the wonderful utterance, the precise utterance, the correct utterances that yout will give Pastor and myself as we minister your word. Father, thank youk. We allow ourselves to be a vessel to youo. And you'd flow in us and let yout revelation flow, Let yout anointing flow, you, presence flow. And thank youk for your goodness and you'd mercy that is endures forever. Thank you, Father. Father, we thank you for this word. And we thank you for those that will hearken to your Word. We thank you for the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. And the eyes of our Spirit will be flooded with light that we may know the hope of your calling and the glory of your inheritance in our life in Christ Jesus. We thank you and also likewise thank you for that anointing. Oh, the power, the glory, the same glory. The same spirit that raised the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead is towards us that believe. We thank you for Him. We thank you and we just so grateful that he lives and abide in us forever. We're so grateful for the divine nature of your Son in us. In Jesus name, Amen. Amen. You can all be seated. And I was so honored again to be with you this morning. I thank God for Pastor allowing me to preach alongside with her. I used to get, you know, get uneasy. Okay, I'll say. I get nervous. Praise the Lord. But I thank God for His help. To me, he said, you know it is my will. Don't get nervous. You know it is my will. Amen. You enjoy it. Praise the Lord. This morning I was talking to God in prayer, you know, regards to this meeting contingently. I've been, we've been talking to him about this and then suddenly I heard in my spirit a lot of vacancy of my will. There's so much vacancy. It's not that it's missing children that become born again. And because he said there's vacancy, not too many are, you know, striving for my will. Amen. And we learned in Philippians chapter two yesterday that the Lord Jesus Christ put on humanity, became obedient. So he became a man just like us. And as a man, as a man of God and as a son to the Father, God the Father put a will in his life. Amen. And all. And his life, of course, the reward of the Father doesn't just. And here for his life he was, because of his obedient to the cross. That is the plan of God, of the Father, for the salvation of many. He gave his life for us. And in fact, that scripture was given to me when I gave myself to go with dad and now with Pastor, he said, son, I came to give my life for you. Of course, he was talking to me personally, you know, of course I know it for the body of Christ. And he said to me, I'm giving you an opportunity to do the same thing, what I did. Because he said, let this mind be in you, not just in our heart, our mind. Amen. Which was also in Christ Jesus. So we know when he was here on the earth, that was in his mind because he revealed it to Paul. Amen. Remember? Amen. Paul went to Arabia. I don't know for how many years. That's where he developed revelation character because he has a bad character. When Jesus found him, he has a killer mindset, killer instinct. He's a destroyer. He has this zealousness in the wrong place. Praise the Lord. So, you know, it takes years for him to start preaching the Gospel. Amen. So that's, I believe that's where he developed his prayer life, his communion, because Jesus was talking to him directly that the body of Christ never heard before. Amen. And it took years for the body of Christ to really mature who they are in Christ. We know they know about the name of Jesus. Jesus taught them. And Jesus before Jesus before he left. There are so many things I will. I want to tell you, but you cannot bear them. Now, however, how be it when he, the Holy Ghost, you know, and he told him about some things, abide in me, my words abide in you. And there are many things that he said. But the clarity of it came when Paul came in the Epistles and he said in the book of Galatians that the gospel was taught to him by the Lord Jesus Christ. He said that any man or any angel be accursed if they preach another gospel that what I preached to you. Amen. And we know that church of Galatia, they started in the teaching of Paul, but they are not matured enough to keep the teaching that they received from Paul. And they started inviting in their church another, you know, ministers, teachers or so called preachers and teaching them in a wrong doctrine. And they accepted it. And they lost all the revelation that they had. They lost the move of the Spirit. They lost their faith in who they are in Christ. Amen. And Paul has to pray. There's a prayer. He said, I travail for you that Christ may be formed in you. So that the teaching of the Gospel of Christ is not just the teaching, just for our mind to know about it. We learned it from Paul. Yeah. That that teaching has to birth in every heart, believer's heart, so that the believer can mature. Amen. We can bring people to Christ, but not everybody. Amen. In the body of Christ will know who they are. And not only that, they will not able to go and move on to the plan that God has for them here on this earth. The plan of God is eternal. Even though we're doing it on this earth, he still gonna follow us because of the reward of his plan, the Lord Jesus Christ. Because of his obedience to the plan of God. When he was on the earth, the Father promoted him. Amen. Praise the Lord God. One of the things that God raised him up from the dead. And the thing is our pattern as Christians is pattern in the Lord Jesus Christ. Whatever God did to him, he did the same way to us in the eyes of the Father. Amen. Praise the Lord. The picture that God sees us is the picture of his Son. And we have that same. When we got born again, we have that same nature of a son. We have entered into a covenant of sonship in the Old Testament in Galatians. The book of Galatians said that in chapter four. Amen. They were translated from being a servant to being the covenant of sonship and praise the Lord. And Pastor Craig talks about the covenant that David see his covenant with God and is fighting against this demonic man that has no covenant. The devil has no covenant. Amen. Praise the Lord. He's after our covenant. He knows if we don't know who we are in Christ, he can do his deal. Even though we can go to heaven. He can put his effect in our life going to heaven. But the Holy Ghost wanted heaven in Us, he wanted to. That is his job description. I mean, I'm saying his nature to help us. So there's. That's what the Holy Ghost told me. A lot of vacancy in my plan. My children. Praise the Lord. That's why I believe. I thank God for Pastor Nancy. And I was just hearing from him since this morning before the meeting. Don't bypass what you heard last night, because you can never enter into the greatest flow revelation of my plan without that. And he remind me this morning, because you know, the scripture that I always meditate on, you know, is First Corinthians, chapter two. You know about. With regards to praying in the Spirit, praying the mystery of his plan for our lives. But the thing before I continue to do so, the Holy Ghost said, vacancy. There's vacancy. But the Lord Jesus Christ was promoted. Not by himself, he didn't promote himself. He was just obedient. His heart and mind. Amen. Is to be obedient to what the Father said to him. Amen. In the Garden of Gethsemane, the prayer consecration, he prayed. You know, he knows he has. It's not about one hour. He only have an hour window because they know he knows that they're coming to pick him up. But you can see because of this skillfulness in prayer, he can make an effect not only for himself, but for the whole world, for the whole nation. In a span of an hour, he changed because he's entering into a new phase in his life. It might be short, but it's still a phase for him, which is now the final phase of his life, dedicating his life and giving his life for our sin. For the first time in his life. Amen. He will be separated from his Father. He will lose the life of God in him that we take for granted today. We take for granted that life that God has given to us. We take for granted the plan that God has given to us. Amen. Because of character. Amen. Praise the Lord. God dealt with me more. My character more than anything. And I said, lord, I can't change myself, but you can. I yield to your help. I was thankful for my wife, that I need the standard that she has. She taught me some things because I never. I. My parents. I was 11 when my parents separated and we were left by ourselves. My dad has to work overseas. I didn't grow up. Nobody set a standard in my life. The one thing with me, I pursue the will of God and the plan of God. I'm so thankful for it every day because as a person, I Don't know how to make goals. I make goals, I always fail. And when I got born again, I still cannot make goals. I don't know how to pray precisely the plan of God. And I thank God that for the help of the Holy Spirit, the leading that we didn't know being led, we were able to do part of that plan and we got blessed. But for me it's like a jackpot, you know, playing, you know those chiching in the really the truth when is that good things happen again? I don't know how to follow up on it. I don't know how to continue. So I don't know how to pray precisely the plan. So we went to hardship. I went to hardship and I put my family in hardship. But still I'm thankful for those hardship. I'm not supposed to, but because of my ignorance, you know, because of my character, you know, I'll be honest with you, you know, I look more my character today more than anything else in my life. Because I know I will not fail when God is with me all the time. I know the things that I learn from my spiritual father, from you all. Amen. And I'm so thankful that I'm surrounded with ministers and Christians that have good character that I can follow what I'm saying. That's a good example. And now I'm surrounded by people, my brothers and sisters who will help me, surrounded by my wife every day. Praise the Lord. Amen. What I'm saying is, and I thank God for what Pastor was ministering last night. She wanted to bring us and teach us about worship, but we can't. Amen. Praise the Lord. Now the reason why is if Jesus was given a plan, so are we. As he is in this world, so are we in this world. That's what the Bible said. He is our pattern. Amen. So when he did that obedient to that plan, what happened? God promoted him. Who said that? Paul did? Because Jesus told him. Jesus told him what happened to him now that he is in heaven. I was given a name that is above all name. And that name was given to us. It become our inheritance. Because Lord Jesus Christ said, all that I have, all that the Father hath are mine. Remember before. Amen. He's seeing. He's seeing the inheritance. He's looking and he's looking beyond the natural. He's looking beyond the cross. Amen. He's already looking beyond raising up from the dead. He's already seeing what's going to be in heaven. But he's not just Looking for himself. He's also looking that everything that my father has is mine. He's talking about the inheritance, all. Amen. That is mine. The Holy Ghost, when he comes, he will impart. Amen. Praise the Lord. Into your spirit, into our mind, through our spirit. Hallelujah. Praise God. Amen. So from the Father to our Lord Jesus Christ, to the Holy Ghost, now to us. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Praise God. You get me, Lord? What's your plan? You know. Hallelujah. So you got to meditate on the Word before you pray, get into your spirit. And I'm telling you, when you see that man, you know, Paul said to Timothy, you know, stir up the gift. He'll stir up the gift that is in you. Whoa. Hallelujah. Yeah. Now you can pray, right? Yeah. That's just the way it is. It's not just. I'm preaching. This is the way I am. I can't do it. I cannot preach anything other than what I know. Praise the Lord. But God promoted them. You don't see beyond. We have to see beyond this. There's promotion after this life. Amen. Hallelujah. And God has given him the name that is above all names, that in that name, the Father did because of his obedience to the plan of the Father. Right. And in return, he still gave us that name. Hallelujah. So you remember, whenever you use that name, remember, because Jesus was obedient. My Lord Jesus was obedient. He was thinking about me. Amen. Not only that, our confession today of faith. You know, when you're praying, you're speaking, you're confessing. Isn't that right, Pastor? You're confessing. You're confessing your supply. He is God. The Father made him what? The high priest of our confession. As one of his reward, he became the Savior. So. Amen. The plan of God. I remember Amen. When I'm following the plan of God, boy. It was because my mind is so unrenewed. Still, at the time, I didn't know. It takes so much time and my character. I almost quit the plan of God because of pressure. Amen. One time we were so pressured about finances. We have. We. We have zero balance in our account all the time. And here I am, I'm supposed to go with that. I know it in my heart, but I don't have the money to do it. And I need. I didn't know. You know, sometimes if you. You don't use your faith because the church has money, because a lot of people I. A lot of people that came to our church. God prospered them. Amen. This business prospered. And they decided, I don't want what pastor said, so we're gonna quit. So they quit. They left all of them that was blessed by God financially. And when they left, it's like the curtain opens up. Our faith is on the people, man. We struggle. We struggle. Our faith in finances, we struggle. We're going to get the money he likes, open. I mean, I don't even have to use my faith because the money is flowing until the people left. Now, most of the people left, you know, work at Walmart, you know. Amen. God told me, get out of this building. You're gonna get yourself in trouble. There's no money in the church because the. Not because the job of the people. They don't have faith in finances. You have to teach them faith. So as I teach them faith, I teach myself. You know, praise the Lord, but we release our faith. But anyway, make the long story short, I look at my wife, I mean, we cannot sleep at night. That is not good. Following the plan of God, you can't sleep at night worrying about the supply that he already provided to fulfill that plan. There was no faith. No, praise God, I thought, I have something, boy. Ministry is going, you know, man, when I preach, man, that anointing will come, man. I lay hands on people, bam. They're in the spirit. I thought, I got it. Now. When the robber meets the road, that's when I know I still don't have it. I still lack character, lack faith. Praise the Lord forevermore. So I told my wife, said, I'm not gonna go with dad anymore. We don't have money. And not that I'm, you know, I'm mad at dad. It's not, we don't have money. So I turned around after I said that to my wife, Unbelief. Don't. Amen. See, the problem is, for me, I don't have that character to take responsibility. I always lean upon somebody. That's a bad character. Stand up, spirit of faith. Go after the problem. Cut that head off. That's one thing I learned about it. Amen. I turned around, God the Father said, the Holy Ghost said, you're going to be disqualified. He didn't say, I'm gonna go to hell. I'm gonna go to heaven without the plan, without fulfilling the plan. Amen. Remember before the outpouring, talking about the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. But anyway, I keep doing, saying my story, so I'm still like that fountain you know, I'm still my emotion still there. I got to kill that emotion. You know, I got to put this in subjection. You know, it's like. It's like an earthquake. There's after shock, you know, it's kind of, you know, the earthquake is over, but there's still aftershock. So I went downstairs and two story home and opened the tv. I'm not even watching it. I just want to use the TV to just. I don't even watch what's on, you know. And the Holy Ghost said, Jesus said, by the Holy Ghost, ah, you step on the water. I said, lord, I'm talking to him. That's how you talk to God. I mean, I talk to him just like talking to somebody. I said, lord, you're telling me all these things that I'm encountering. I just step on the water. Yeah. For him it's nothing, son. Walk. Walk on it. Walk on the water. I know that remind me of Peter, you know, gave me miss word walk. I said, okay, Lord, you know, still, you know, but I have to make that decision. See, see, it's my decision is the plan. Am I walking away or am I keep going? I said, okay, Lord, I'm gonna walk on the water. I don't know what he means because there's no water there. Praise the Lord. I know we have swimming pool in our backyard. Then I know what he means. He didn't. I know what he means. I'm not gonna walk because I'm not a good swimmer. Just in case, you know, I sink, man, I'll sink. So I don't know what he means, but he was telling me I just stepped on some. Step on it. Step on that problem. Walk on it. Walk it. Take authority over it. Now. I know, but then I don't know. Okay, but the thing is, I made a decision and received. I know now receive the word with meekness. You know, you just receive it even though you don't understand it with your mind. So I said, lord, I receive it. I will walk. You know, I will walk on the water, man. That anointing came on me. That impartation from my dad, from my pastor. That spirit of faith. I know that spirit. I know that spirit of faith, man. Hallelujah. I know that spirit of faith that dad pastor impart to us. I know dad received that from Dr. Sumrall. That's why I like Reverend Linda. We were talking about you. I said, the anointing of Dr. Stomro is still alive today. His fruit. Praise the Lord. Amen because he told me that. So anyway, make the long story short again. After I said that, the phone rang. Not even, I don't know, not even five or ten seconds. The phone rang. So I answered it hesitantly. I don't know who called. You know, I'm not paying attention. You know who's on the other line? Guess. Guess who? Doctor. He picked it up in his spirit, After I make a decision, I'm going. I'm going to walk on that water. He's talking to me about his plan. Take authority over that. Blocking you to fulfilling that plan. And that spirit of faith came on me the moment I heard the voice of dad. He said, mitch, getting you a ticket. He was in Georgetown with Dr. Harebo doing a meeting, buying you a ticket. Hey, there's a supply there. Buying you a ticket, and you're coming here. Okay, dad. When I said okay, after that, I said, how about my hotel room? Thank God for Brother Mitch, man. Thank God for him. He let me sleep with him in the room. If I snore, he just throw me a pillow. Hallelujah. Yeah. But the moment I said that, that spirit of faith came on me, and I never looked back. The situation financially didn't change, but the money kept coming. Because now that spirit of faith that was imparted to us by our spiritual parents. Praise the Lord. But how did it happen? Prayer. I was talking to God and he was talking to me. And it changed my life forever. We're still here because of his plan. All I have in my life is I want that plan. Because like I told you, I grow up, I am a person. I cannot make things right on my own. I cannot do a plan. I will think, but I don't know how to do it. So I will do. I always fail. There are some, you know, I. Sometimes I see people, you know, I have some relatives that. Man, they can make it their own. I can do this, I can do that. You talk to them about God because they can make it on their own. They can make their own plan and make it happen. And I'm not that kind of person. I thank God for that. So when God, I hold on to the plan because I know his plan will never fail outside the plan of God, I have no plan. I know already I'm going to fail. You know, I may not be the smartest man in the world, but at least I got smartness enough to say, I will not make it on his plan. But the thing is, following his plan entails a lot. But it's good if I Follow my plan. It will entails a lot of hardship. So which one I'll choose. Like pastor said last night, I present to you today, you know, blessing and cursing, life and death. You know, it's sad to say people still choose death, still choose cursing. Yeah. Choose life. But life is connected to his plan. A good life is connected to his plan. Hallelujah. In their spaces, paths to may be good now, but it got to get better. Glory be to God. Hallelujah. Yeah. Yeah. If the devil will tell you, well, you have this small house, well, it's gonna get better. And just follow the plan. It's gonna get better. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Yeah. That's what God said. Praise God. Hallelujah. Yeah. I want to keep the plan of God vacant now before the outpouring. We will. Praise the Lord. I got so many things, Lord, in my heart. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Praise God. When you're in full of the word, God speaking to you. Amen. Praise God. You want to talk to him more. It keeps you praying. It keeps you talking to him. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Thank God for that. I don't have to stay on my head. My head. I keep my word in my head. Praise the Lord. And I sing myself. I sing. You know, the good life that we're having today. I know there's more. Amen. I was so thankful. I never thought I'm going to be speaking in front of you. Amen. I never thought that I can, but he did the grace and I'm enjoying it. I'm no longer nervous in the plan of God. Praise the Lord. Future is good. Amen. But anyway, hallelujah. So don't bypass what pastor is very important now. Let me get to the scripture, please. Ephesians, chapter two. Let me go there. Ephesians. If you look at the epistles of Paul, he will tell us about who we are in Christ prayers. And then in between, his character. Amen. In between. If you study his teaching. Amen. What character we need to develop. Amen. And then at the latter part of it, even he said what? Put on the armor of God. Right. All of those is the character of our Lord Jesus Christ that we have to put on from head to toe our whole being, right. So that the devil cannot enter in. And then praying always. Praise the Lord. So that our prayer will be effective. Now, I know in the book of Acts, before the outpouring of the Holy Ghost, Jesus went to heaven. He said, the power of God will come on them, the Holy Ghost. They will Be filled with the Holy Ghost. They never experienced it, so they probably don't have an idea. But all of them were worshiping God. They got born again at the time. There's joy in them. Amen. And we're going to talk about joy today because. Amen. Our pastor is talking about joy. So whatever you heard last night, you'll take it with joy. You know, the Lord Jesus Christ was only sorrowful within that hour. After that is all joy. We know that. Right? Praise the Lord. But anyway, there was a vacancy in the plan of God for the 12. Judas being around Jesus, he has an apostle call, an apostle anointing, but his character disqualified him big time. He opens the door to the devil. He didn't see what lies ahead. Amen. He didn't see anything. The only thing that he see is a reward, a little reward from the religious people and betrays on Lord Jesus. Well, you know, I get a better job there. Yeah, go ahead if you want to lose your reward. Well, I leave my church, I go someplace else to make a little bit of this. Yeah, that's what Judas did. Amen. I don't want to go to that meeting. You know, I got to spend money. Yeah, that's what Judas did. Amen. He went after that money and lost the plan of God. So there's a vacancy. And if you look at that before the outpouring, they have to fill that vacancy because that's the plan of God. And we know that in the book of revelation, that's 12, that 12 is very important because it was in his plan. So there's a vacancy of that plan. Praise the Lord. Judas didn't take it with him. He disqualified himself from the plan of God. So the question is, this morning, are you in his plan? Do you know exactly? Or you just attending church and just being born again, you'll go to heaven with no reward. Because the Bible said we will be, you know, we will be judged for what we have done in this body. You don't have to be somebody else. You just have to be what God planned for you to be. Amen. You got to be accurate in his plan. Praise the Lord. And praise God. Guess why? God told me, make sure it's revelation, not ambition. Amen. If I didn't reveal it to you, just stay with what you know. Amen. Praise God. So once they got that vacancy, you know, filled right after that, what happened? Chapter two came, Right? Chapter two came. They were one accord in one place. Amen. Praise the Lord. So in this time, in this very hour, Worship is being given a very big emphasis because there's no way. Amen. There's no way we can be able to obtain the perfection or the maturity of the planet or God in our life. We don't learn to worship because worship will keep us clean. Because we cannot worship, we cannot fellowship with God with all this unrighteousness. Not doing the plan of God is unrighteousness in the eyes of God. Hallelujah. Praise God. But anyway, let's look again to Ephesians, chapter. Praise God. I want. Oh, hallelujah. Amen. Isn't that good? Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Praise God. That's why I'm saying to you, if me and my wife can make it, all of you can make it really the truth. Praise God. Now, in Ephesians, chapter two, let's look at that word amen. And it talks about who we are before Christ. Amen. Then he talks about salvation, you know, the grace, the gift of righteousness. It was a gift when we received Jesus as our Lord and Savior. Not of works. But we learn after that knot of works that we receive. Everything is work, right? Hallelujah. Well, it's work of the plan. Not. It's just Newman work now. That's why I'm gonna bypass that for the sake of time. It says here. Okay, let's read it in verse seven. Okay, let's. Verse six. He hath raised us up together, right. Made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Right. That in the ages to come, praise the Lord. He might show the exceeding riches of his grace, his kindness towards us through Christ Jesus. Hey, there's good things ahead. Not only now, there's more to come. But we still have to rehearse what God did to us in the past. But anyway, verse 8. For by grace are you saved through faith. That's not of yourself. It is the gift of God. Right. Not of works. Lest any man should boast. For we are. What? Verse 10. I'm gonna read it in the amplified. Dad, Hagin said most people don't listen, so let's amplify it. We can listen better. Right. Verse 10. For we are God's own handiwork, his workmanship recreated in Christ Jesus. What? Born anew. Born again. Right. Born again. Now many. If we're not careful, we stop there. But there's more to be born again, right? He said that we may do those good works which God predestined is already settled, planned beforehand for us. He didn't say here, for ministers, for all of us. Amen taking paths which he prepared ahead of time. Wow. That we should walk in them. And it said here, living the good life as Pastor Nancy made mention. By the Spirit, by the Spirit gave her a word. Long life. Amen. Is that Pastor what God said? Long life is connected to my plan. Amen. And this is one of the scripture that says that which he prepared ahead of time, that we should walk in them, living the good life which he prearranged. Whoa. And made ready for us to live. But he's connected to the plan now in verse 11. Therefore, remember that at one time you were Gentiles. And I always look at this scripture and I was so thankful for the scripture. I was so thankful because it says here, therefore remember that at one time you were Gentiles, heathens. Amen. In the flesh called uncircumcision by those who call themselves circumcision, you know, itself a mere mark in the flesh made by human hands. Remember, Remember, we got to renew our mind, right? That you were at that time. You got to renew your mind. We're going to see this later on in another scripture that you were at that time separated, living apart from Christ, excluded from all part in him, utterly estranged and outlawed from the rights of Israel as a nation and strangers, with no share in the sacred covenants of the Messianic promise, with no knowledge of or right in God's agreements, His covenants. That's what it means. And you had no hope, divine hope, right? Had no hope, no promise. You were in the world without God. That's what we are. And I thank God we have him now. And God gave us a plan. We have entered into the plan that many will neglect. They never appreciate. Praise God, we can go to church. Not even in his plan. Amen. But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were so far away through buying the blood of Christ, have been brought near because of the blood. Amen. But anyway, to make the long story short, I thank God that I'm born again. And God being born again, I'm in the plan of God. Amen. So when we look at that one prayer of Paul is of course the prayer in Ephesians. It is the calling who we are in Christ. Right? It's not the calling on the plan, on the works that we have to do. And we have to pray. That prayer right says not to pray for you. Amen. That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ may give unto you the spirit of wisdom, revelation in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. So without wisdom, we're not going to enter into revelation and knowledge. That's the spirit of seeing and knowing. That's the spirit of seeing the eyes of your spirit. Right? That's the spirit of seeing. That's the way I see it. The eyes of your spirit will be flooded with light. That you may know what is the hope of his calling. Right. That you may know the call of who you are in him. Amen. Now in Colossians 1, Colossians 1, let's look at that. I'm just putting all the scriptures and then so we can pray. Colossians, chapter one, verse nine, you know. And it talks about after hearing about them being born again and the love for the saints, you read it in your own time. It says verse 9. For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, you know what happened to them? They received Jesus, their Lord and Savior. It says here, after I heard that. Do not cease to pray for you and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of his will. Right? You might be filled with all the knowledge of his will. These are the prayers that we need to pray always. Now with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, Right? And said that you might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work. And I look at that on my. You know a friend of mine, you know who he is, right? Strong. I look at that word work. And also the same word that was in Ephesians chapter two. Amen. It's the same word, the same word work. And it's the plan of God, right? Being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. Now this, every good work doesn't come from what we think. It's good. Even though we're ministers, we can do some good things. That's not even the plan of God for us to do. Barnabas did. Amen. They prayed, right? They minister unto the Lord. And that word minister, we know that Strong's again said it's worship. So they ministered unto the Lord. And the Holy Ghost said they worshiped. And the Holy Ghost said so the revelation came from their worship time, from their fellowship with God. That's why when you know God has a plan and you go after that plan, it will cost you to worship God. Amen. Praise the Lord. And the Holy Ghost said, separate Paul and Barnabas, right? The ministry, the plan that he has called. But Barnabas disqualified himself because he has another plan he wants to add. It's not that bad, but he wants to add to the plan Of God. And Paul said, he's focused on the plan of God. You know, so there was a strong argument and it separated them. Remember? That's that story. Amen. There is a. There is a. What do you call that? You know, sometimes me and my wife has that kind of fellowship, intense fellowship. But we put a wall that we never separate. You know, We did one time, my wife said, let's separate. Okay. You know, talking about last night, I revealed to you one of my, you know, superhero thing, Iron man, but this time doing laundry. Let's separate the white. That's our separation, you know. You know, my wife yelled at me one time because he was upstairs and she was upstairs. And her voice so strong, you know, so loud. And I was downstairs, hon, you know. You know, make me coffee. Why is that? Because she's. You cannot separate her from her makeup table. But she needed that coffee, Praise God. And I know that being married to her, man, I yelled back, you know, I have to teach you, Pastor Craig, because I love you. You gotta answer back. And I did. Yeah. So I said. So I said to her, you know, cream and sugar. I yelled. I yelled too, man. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I said. Just like what I said to the Lord. Okay. I walk on the water doing that to my wife. When I yelled to the Lord, you know, I didn't know it was boldness in me. I thought I was yelling on him, you know, because the anointing came, you know, praise the Lord. But that's. We have intense fellowship. That's what happened to Barnabas and Saul. They have Paul in intense, and they got separated. Now, you know why we separated one time. The white and the color. And we're still doing it today. But now, praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Amen. We have our laundry bag, the collar, separated from the. But anyway, praise the Lord. What happened? There was a vacancy in that plan. Barnabas split, is still doing his own deal. He's still visiting, doing his own thing, but he's out of the picture now. You never heard the Holy Ghost, Never wrote his name again after that. So we have to be precise in praying the plan. Now, here comes First Corinthians, chapter two. So, yeah, these prayers, I pray always. I pray all the time because I learned it from dad Hagin. I was listening to him, the authority. Believer's authority, he said. I prayed these prayers after in the ministry for I don't know how much, 15 years, maybe. I got revelation of praying this prayer. So he prayed. He prayed. He didn't know how it Will come. But he just keep praying. Keep praying. Philippians. I kind of memorize it now because. But I. Because I prayed it all the time. It used to be just memory, reading it. Memory, memory. I learned if I keep saying it and continue, it eventually will get into my spirit. And it did. And when I pray this, it become a heartfelt prayer for me. It's not just regular praying. It's heartfelt. And up to today, I still love teaching it because I still got words, revelation out of it. Amen. Praise the Lord. It helps me keep myself from the plan of God. Amen. So there's a plan. So there's a calling who we are in Christ, but there's also a calling of the things that we need to do on this earth. But anyway, First Corinthians, chapter two, because we are entering into this. Pastor made mention about this era, the culmination of every era and plus more. So there will be a great flow of miracles, great flow of the power of the Holy Ghost. God is preparing us. God is preparing us. There will be a great change of character amongst us. We cannot stay if there's undeveloped character we have. We take the correction because correction is good. And that's why we pray for utterance for pastor all the time. And that was the utterance gift. She is trying to get into that, the teaching. But the Holy Ghost is using her, giving her boldness to speak those utterance so we can correct things. Amen. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. And it's also in the book of Hebrews, chapter 20, about that correction. And you know, because when we run a race, the Bible said we have to all those things that slow us down before we run a race. What is that race? The plan. The plan of God. When you run a race, you don't run your race. Oh, well, it's okay if I'm second. Yeah, you don't practice to be second, right? You want the first place, you want the best. And if it's a race, there's a goal. And our race is to be what God's plan for us, the highest flow of that race. And I remember the Holy Ghost told me one time, I was praying and you know, because, you know, you want the ministry. You know, how do you grow ministry, you know, looking at the natural, maybe this. Maybe the numbers will grow. And, you know, you're praying and, you know, you're learning. And the Holy Ghost said, son, your ministry is not just what's in front of you. He was talking to me. What I'm saying in the nature, your ministry. When I take you in the realm of the Spirit. Amen. Amen. Your ministry is vast. Listen to me, folks. Some of you may not go places where Reverend Linda go. You might not be called there, but in the Spirit he told me, is vast. He said, in the Spirit, I can take you places. Nation you never been. I will take you to people. Amen. You never know. You never. You know. He said, in the Spirit, you can pray for people, for nations you never been before. It probably will never be, but it's in the realm of the Spirit. We have to develop. We have to be skillful. How to get into the Spirit. Amen. And praise and worship. We have to get into despair. But we cannot get there if we are carnal minded. Our mind will slow us down. Wrong thinking will slow us down. And here Paul was saying here about the plan of God here in First Corinthians, chapter two. If you look at that closely, but don't miss out, don't bypass, right, don't bypass chapter three. Because if you read chapter three, there's a higher pro of wisdom of the plan of God for their life. But Paul said, I cannot. If Paul, by the Spirit, cannot speak to them about the highest flow of the wisdom of God. That's why sometimes many of us are stuck. We're stuck with our problem, we're stuck with our thinking. We're stuck. And we're not doing what God's will. We're not hearing from the Holy Ghost. It because of the carnal. Carnality. And Paul said, I cannot. He didn't say in between. I mean, when you read the word, I'm telling you, it really correct you. Yeah. Praise God. So praise the Lord. Lately we're all praying. God gave us utterance about Africa. I've never been to Africa. Amen. Hallelujah. One time we were in St. Petersburg, right, Pastor? The spirit of prayer fell and we saw this revival coming to Europe. And amen. We saw that. I just named whatever the Holy Ghost said. And he said, this a revival. This revival will hit Israel and I'm coming back. So he was saying, he's not coming back with no revival. He's coming back to that nation. He's not coming back to Marietta. He's coming back to Israel. But from Marietta we can help. He's coming back because he's in the realm of the Spirit. There is no place, there is no time. There is no time and place in the Spirit. When you are in the Spirit with God, man, he can take you Places I meant he can take you. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Amen. There's nothing like it, man. Praise the Lord. Glory be to God. It doesn't take me long to get joy, you know. Yeah. Because if you live there, you get there all the time. Oh, pray. But anyway, I don't want to get there yet. Let me just look at this. Like it says here, verse for the sake of time. Amen. Verse 6. Yet when we are, I'm reading at the end, and when we are among the full grown spiritually mature Christians who are ripe in understanding, we do impart. So this can be imparted. We do impart a higher wisdom. My, my, my, my, my. What pastor is doing to us is imparting to us. This is a higher wisdom of worship and praise. It may not all in the body of Christ, but praise the Lord. If not forever he will look for a place wherein the power of God, the revelation of the word. They're still after that greater revelation. That's why we're here. We're after that greater revelation because we can help others that cannot get there. Amen. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. He will not come until this era. Very few churches knows about this era. Very few. Amen. But we're not gonna say, you know, shame on them. Well, we're in the flow. No, we are in this all together. If they don't know how to get it, we'll get it. And as we pray, they'll get it. And I believe many of you, they'll send you for them to get it. They'll send you there because you got it. Amen. Hallelujah. When you're full of revelation, full of the anointing of this era. Hallelujah. Many of you been around dad Hagin, you were changed. He went from one era to another. He was so faithful until his era came. Many of you went to that school and was changed by that another era came. He was speaking by the Spirit. That the praying was speaking by the Spirit. He went to heaven because of that one time. Praise the Lord. But anyway, make the long story short. Praise the Lord. Amen. He was saying here in verse seven. But we speak the wisdom of God in what? In a mystery. You know, we're talking about the plan of God. Hallelujah. And it says even the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the world unto our glory. Right? We speak when you speak the wisdom of God. One of the best way you pray in the Spirit. Amen. And it said here in a mystery, you talk to God about This wisdom, the Holy Ghost is giving you the utterance right now. For the sake of time, I'm going to read verse 10. Yet to us, God has unveiled and revealed them by and through his Spirit. For the Holy Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God, the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man's scrutiny. And verse 11. For what persons. Now let me show you something. How important that preaching last night. Amen. How Paul has to buffet his body, you know, renew his mind. It is important for this operation in prayer. For what person perceive, knows and understand. Verse 11. What passes through a man's thoughts, right. What passes through man's thought except the man's own spirit within him. So it says here, just so no one discerns, comes to know and comprehend the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. So what the process is, your spirit will receive it from the Holy Ghost, right? Amen. And Paul said, we do impart the high wisdom to those that are mature. So he was not just speaking. Amen. He said, we speak the wisdom of God in the mystery. He was not talking to the Corinthians. He was talking to those mature Christians, the divine counsels. Because in chapters three said, I cannot. Because of your carnality. Right. There's division among you. Their mind is wrong. They have to correct their thinking. They have to correct the way they live before the higher wisdom and the plan of God can be given to them. That's why many will be, will be born again, go to heaven, not fulfilling the plan of God because of carnality. Because the Holy Ghost cannot give you. Amen. The higher wisdom, the higher wisdom of praise and worship that our pastor was telling us. What is that? That the pastor was. Pastor Nancy was giving to her about that revelation in Russia, the double portion anointing. There's no way we can get into that until we renew our mind and we talk about. If you look at the Scripture, Paul said, when I speak, my speech and my preaching was not enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of what the spirit and of power. That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of man, but in the power of God. See, the thing is, if you have faith in your natural plan, you keep speaking it, even in that natural plan, it will get into your spirit and it will flow from your spirit to your mind. And you thought, it's God. Be careful what you say, be careful what you plan. The same way happened to Israel. God doesn't want Them to have a king. But they wanted to be a king. I thank God that David was so close to God that he didn't go burn them as a king. He go burned them as a man of God. That's why they prospered. David was their shepherd. He did it one time to Bathsheba. He used his king anointing. He almost lost his kingdom. He imposed, remember that. But thank God, he changed no matter what. Here comes his son, Solomon. I mean, God used. I mean, the wisdom of God that flows in his life made him so rich. The richest man on the earth. He still lost it. He lost his plan in the latter part of his life. I mean, I read vile, vile idols he worshiped. And how did that wisdom came from his worship? He came to God worship God. Amen. And God said, what do you want? Before he asked, he worshiped God. But when he lost that place of worship because he cannot control his body. Can you imagine how many concubines? 300 some. That's just wives. How can a man? One is good enough for me. Man. He got 300. My God. And more. My God. Praise God. Amen. Paul is not alive at that time. So he didn't hear that word buffet your body, you know. But he missed it because of that. Because he cannot control. Amen. Praise God. Amen. But anyway, let's move on here. I'm trying to read First Corinthians, chapter 2. Praise the Lord. Amen. Now so you see the purpose of the plan of God. The Holy Ghost will reveal it to our spirit. And from our spirit it will flow from our mind. If the mind is renewed, if the mind has no plan of his own, if the mind will receive the Word with meekness, no reason, nothing at all. Zero unfruitful. Praise the Lord. Praise God. Why? Because chapter three said they cannot. That operation will not happen. That there's a deeper things. There are paths to the plan of God. Amen. Hallelujah. There are paths, but we cannot receive it if our thinking is wrong. Praise the Lord. Even John said, first John, chapter, chapter one. Right? Amen. You cannot have darkness. Praise the Lord. That's why God, the Holy Ghost is giving our pastor. Because we're connected to her. For us, she's our main supply. You know, I still love others too. We don't reject others. But because she's our pastor to us. Amen. Whatever the holy. And we're praying for her more than anybody, right? We're praying for all our ministers. Praise the Lord. But anyway, well, we thank God for That revelation, if you look at all the revelation that God is giving to her, right. Her writings, is for us to get into that plan, to know precisely the plan of God. Because there's a plan and there's deeper things, there's paths and every path is a good life. But there's deeper things. But we need to change our thinking. When? Now, when the operation that our mind is renewed in the word, right? The Holy Ghost, we pray in the spirit and sometimes if we don't know, and still no revelation, that's all we have. Amen. And Paul said Amen. My speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but with amen. But with the demonstration of the spirit and the power, right? So now when our mind is so renewed, that operation will come. As we pray in the Holy Ghost, we quiet our mind. You just say, ruska the Father, I thank you for your plan. I thank you for the details of that plan. Amen. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. So you pray in the spirit, you know, and the mystery of that plan. And the Holy Ghost is giving us the utterance because he knows the plan of God. Amen. So let's you pray in the Holy Ghost. But your mind is unfruitful. Your mind is quiet. Your mind is not thinking about something else. Your mind is not saying that, brother man, I'm gonna beat him up, you know, you know, well, you know, my wife, she's telling me that, you know, I should do these things right. She's not doing right either, you know, praise God, you know what I'm saying? You know, praise the Lord. Every time I get upset, you know, my wife, you know, intense argument. The Holy Ghost said, you go back and apologize to your wife. And I'm about to tell God, you know, okay, Lord, I don't know why he always say to me I'm wrong. But my thinking in my mind said, my wife is wrong. But when the Holy Ghost, I said, I am wrong. I gotta renew my mind now what God is thinking, you know, because I kept myself in the will of God. I didn't separate from dad, no matter what. I went to hardship. Most of you didn't know. I don't have time to tell you all the things that we went through. We have miracles upon miracles. That's we learned what faith really is. I was able to finish it until dad went home to be with the Lord. But amen. I was led. I learned how to be led by the Spirit. Amen. Praise the Lord. But so many, how come you're not with dad when he, you know, went to. Because I was not led, but we were with them. You know, Jesus appeared in Merced. That's the last in California. He ministered. And he impart to us what was imparted to him that night. That's the first time he said, I'm gonna be doing this. We didn't know he's gonna go home. Pastor has that, all of that, but not us. Praise the Lord. But when? Amen. Hallelujah. But the thing is, I always say, Lord, I don't know why I get into this rabbit trail or whatever you called it. Amen. The thing is, I answered the devil about the plan. I said, satan, I rebuke him. I will not separate from. Because that's what he was saying. So I said, I will not separate from the plan of God. Dr. At that time, because I traveled with Dr. Dufresne, my spiritual father. He is the plan of God for my life. The reason why I said that, because God said that to me. So that is the word he gave to me when I said that word. That's my rebuke. Just like Jesus. He answered him with his word. Amen. He always telling me about wrong things about dad that I cannot even think. So I know it's the devil, wrong things, vile thinking. I keep rebuking it because I know it was me. But that day. But I don't know how to answer it. I don't have the answer book yet. But one day it rose up. Revelation. The Holy Ghost give me a help. It rose up the answer out of me. And I answer it with the plan of God. So how can you answer if you're out of the plan of God? There's no way. Praise God. Amen. He'll pray around with your life. And he left and he stopped and pumped that down. He never bothered me again. Now the Holy Ghost taught me about my wife. You do the same thing to your wife if you cannot think wrong against your wife. Amen. Just like the same way you didn't think wrong about your spiritual father. That will help you because your wife is also my plan for your life. Oh, my God. Hallelujah. So I go back there to Oreo, you know, humble. You know, that's what meekness, right? Humble. Amen. Hallelujah. From time to time, it inject the thought too. And I. I'm telling you, when I acted on that thought about wrong things about my wife, man, I become a changed man in the wrong way. It gave me a bad attitude, bad Feeling I don't want to pray anymore. I quit. Everything in my mind is, quit the ministry, quit my marriage. Quit, quit, quit. I better quit. There's stinky thinking. Am I telling you the truth? He will always, always tell you what's wrong with the plan of God in your life. That's what Judas did. He started thinking about Jesus. Jesus got a good offering from this woman who honors him. And Judah said, you're not supposed to do that. You're not supposed to receive that. Blah, blah, blah. Wrong thinking. Wrong thinking equals wrong.
B
Whoo.
A
I don't know why. Getting to this rabbit trail I'm trying to get to. First Corinthians, chapter two, but First Corinthians, chapter two. The divine will, the highest flow. We cannot get there until we renew our mind. Now, once. Once. Praise the Lord. I wrote it down here. I wrote it down. The Holy Spirit. Amen. This is the spirit of seeing and knowing that dwells in our Spirit, the Holy Spirit. Commune and communicate with our Spirit. And your spirit will pass it on to your mind. And if your mind is thoroughly renewed by the word of God, then acting upon it will bring marvelous result. And the glory of the Lord shall be in manifestation. The power of God shall be manifested. The name of Jesus will be glorified. You know where I get this from? Tongues. An interpretation of Tongues by Dad Hagin. I wrote it down. I wrote it down because I thank God that he. I was watching their, you know, their camp meeting. He got into the Spirit and stuff and started, you know, dad Hagin. She started praying in the Spirit. And then this came, the interpretation, the revelation. And I've been studying that all along, and I got it. Hallelujah. If I kept my mind renewed, then the Holy Ghost, that word will come. And then when I speak. Because if you see the instruction of Paul by the Spirit here, whatever that comes from your spirit, you speak it. You speak it like what you did was saying, Pastor, you speak it. Amen. And the power of God will flow. That's why that supply came. However big it is, he has to supply. Amen. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Why don't we do that this morning? Amen. So listen to all the teaching, and we still have one tonight. Amen. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Amen. Praise God. And another thing, when you pray, like what Pastor mentioned, keep the joy flow. That joy, you don't try to joy. It's just a flow of your prayer. Because that's how Paul pray. I pray for you with joy. That's the Philippians and the one of the his trophy is that church. Amen. And their prayers kept Paul on the earth because he already had faith. I want to go home. You know, that's what he said. I can go home now or stay. But the prayer of those Philippian prayers is so effective for his life. He's a prayerful man, but he needed the prayer of the church. Amen. Hallelujah. Because he kept that revelation. And if you look at that book of Philippians, he said that I may know him. Here comes a man who is about to go home to be with the Lord. He still. Amen. That plan is still after that plan, the prayer of the church help him. Not only his prayer. Praise the Lord. And when Paul prays, Paul prays for them. They pray for Paul. Their prayers. Amen. Come together and revelation flow. And what we say. Philippians 4:19. It came because of that church. The riches of who we are in Christ. Although he was rich, he became poor. That through his. Through his poverty we might become rich. That revelation came because of those deep poverty Philippian church. Amen. Hallelujah. Because of the revelation that Paul gave them, they learned who they are in Christ. They bypass being born again. They are born again, yet they're poor. They are not enjoying the plan of God for their life. Until Paul came and Paul taught them how to pray things out. Hallelujah. They will pray till Paul get out of that jail. But their prayer is always with joy. Praise the Lord. So when you come into the presence of God, you come with joy. There is no sadness in heaven. There's no sadness in the throne of God. You got to be full of God. But when you're full of the Holy Ghost, you'll be full of joy. That's just part of it. It flows with your prayer life. Hallelujah. I don't have to try to get joy. I thought before when we got into joy, we got a revival. I didn't know how you can have revival every day. Praise the Lord. So we're going to pray. Not even trying. We'll have to try it. It's in your spirit. So hallelujah. Father, we're just so thankful for your word this morning. We thank you for your plan. We thank you for your purpose. We thank you for the utterance you have given this morning. And yes, Lord. Yeah, we thank you. We thank you for the definite. The exact knowledge of your plan for us. Amen. Yeah, we thank you. Amen. Hallelujah. Father, let's all say this with me. Father, thank you for your Plan. Thank you for the wisdom of your plan. As we pray in the spirit, you will reveal to us your plan. Thank you in the name of Jesus. So let's pray in the Holy Ghost. Amen. We thank you for your plan. Thank you, Father. As we pray the mystery of your plan. Thank you. Yeah. Thank you, lord. Thank you, father. Oh, glory. Now we start with the I will. I'm just going to stop so I can tell you. We start with the I will. That anointing came. That's what Reverend Norvalhay said. Amen. They don't praise me enough or you don't pray enough. You pray till the anointing flow. I'm just. Ha ha. Now there's an anointing now. Amen. Hallelujah. Praise God. So now the Holy Ghost will bring us to the knowing the knowledge of his plan. Amen. Hallelujah. Some of you, if you haven't done it much, it'll take you time, but it's okay. Don't quit. Praise God. Just keep your mind quiet. Amen. Praise the Lord. So let's continue to pray. Ah, the glory. Yeah. Thank you, Father. Yeah. Yes, Father. Yes, father. Yeah. Thank you, lord. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you, lord. Yeah. Yeah. Yes, lord. Yes, lord. Yes. Yes, father. Yes, lord. Oh, yes. Yeah. Yes, father. Yeah, father, Thank you for your plan for us in this new era. Thank you. Whoa. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. That's why there's fear. There's a presence of fear in your life. To those that encountering fear, get into his plan. That's what I've been hearing, my spirit. Yeah. Where's Sister Deneen? Sister Deneen? Is he here? I'm hearing this in my spirit. I don't know where she's at, but I'm hearing this. Praise God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I'm hearing her name. Whatever is concerned. Yeah. We gotta wait because I just heard that name. Her name. Hallelujah. Gosh to Kipahaya. See, this regards to the plan of God. Let me tell you something. What the Holy Ghost said for the plan of God, because you obeyed his plan. Don't be concerned. Do not be concerned. Just keep doing what God's plan is. Do not fear. Do not be concerned. It's in your case, of all people. I heard your name. You're doing good, sir. You said yes, to his. To his plan. That's all you have to do. Don't do anything else but stay on that plane. And fear will never grip you. Never. When concern comes like what pastor answered, I'm doing your plan, Father. I will not be concerned about anything else. Even your own children. Whatever it may be, let him do it. Amen. Amen. Amen. Whatever bothers you. If ever there is, I can miss it. But if there it is, this is the end of it. Hallelujah. This the end of it.
B
Yes.
A
Yeah. Now the power will flow. The power. Like Paul said, you know. Hallelujah. Stay in joy. Just keep that joy flowing. Just keep that joy flowing. That's all you have to do. Now. That's the operation. What we talking about, we do impart that wisdom. That's the wisdom of God. She got an impartation. It's in her spirit that will help her finish the race. I got it. You got it, right? Yeah. Praise the Lord. Yeah. You know, the Bible said, you rejoice them with that. If you have the same issue, that's anointing will get on you. But she's fulfilling the plan of God. Oh, now I know why he has me call her. She's not only just saying yes to it, she's doing it. So now the Lord said, tell her not to be concerned about anything. That's what he said. Do not worry about what you're gonna eat, what you're gonna wear. Just seek it first. That plan, this kingdom. You got it, sis. Sometimes you don't know what's concerned somebody. You just don't know what, what it is for them. Amen. Hallelujah. Because it's concerned. Haha. Whoa, whoa. Glory. Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. Is this okay, Pastor? I sense about impartation. We have to, Pastor, minister to the ministers. That's what I heard, you know. Amen. Hallelujah. Sometimes so strong I have to do something with my body. But I heard that my spirit. So I, you know, whatever the Holy Ghost said will obey. Praise God. Hallelujah. Amen. That's what. You know. A pastor was given the wisdom of God, a message. Paul said that wisdom can be imparted to the teaching, whatever it may be. You get an impartation so that not only you will hear it, if you continue to hear it, you get it more and more and more. Amen. Let's just. Okay, okay. Let's follow the Holy Ghost and praise God. Hallelujah. So ministers, if you can. God told me that God leads you here so that you can get an impartation. There's going to be greater flow. This is a new day. Amen. So. Amen. So that's an instruction. So I just do it. We just do it. Praise the Lord. So ministers, if you can come, it'll be an honor for us to do this. Hallelujah. Amen. Hallelujah. Yeah. Praise the lord. Hallelujah. Amen. Do it together. If you have a word, Pastor, I just flow with you? Yes, Pastor. Yeah, you go ahead, Pastor. Follow you. Thank you.

Congregation to stand with us to your feet. Reach your hands this direction. Hallelujah. Father, we thank you that any assist they need, they need. Let that anointing assist them in this plan. We thank you for answers that they may need and help that they may need. It becomes clear to them. In Jesus name. Be blessed in Jesus name. Be blessed in Jesus name. Be blessed in Jesus. Bless. Bless. Blessed in Jesus name.
A
Thank you for. Bless. Jesus. Bless.
B
Blessed. Refreshing, refreshing strength and a refreshing of finances. God breathes on the financial end of your ministry. The financial side of it and a refreshing in that.
A
Huh?
B
We thank you, Father.
A
You.
B
We thank you, Father. Haha. For the abundance. We thank you, Father for it. We thank you, Father for it. Hallelujah. Blessed in Jesus name. Blessed in Jesus name. Blessed in Jesus name. We thank you, Father. Blessed in Jesus name. Blessed in Jesus name. We thank you for it, Father. Going back a different way. Completely different. With clarity. With clarity. And you'll see I can't do that anymore. I can't do this anymore. I can't do that because it would cross circuit what I see God has for me. And so laying aside things not necessarily wrong, but they won't assist you in the plan. They won't assist you in the plan. So streamlining. Streamlining. We thank you, Father. Blessed in Jesus name. Blessed in Jesus name. Blessed in Jesus name. We thank you for Blessed in Jesus name. We thank you for it, Father. We thank you for it, Father.
A
Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
B
Overhaul. Overhaul. It will seem as though from the beginning to the end, all the things that had been that you thought you knew he's going to touch on on it. He's going to touch on it. And every single thing, every single thing, every single way of thinking, every single way of operating, lay it out before him and he will adjust it, he will in some places correct it. In other places he'll add to it. Some things he'll subtract and then it will go back in in accuracy. We thank you for it, Father. Accuracy. We thank you for it. Father, in Jesus name.
A
You finished?
B
You finished? Yeah. Hallelujah. Let's just raise up our hands and thank him this morning. Father, we thank you. We thank you. We thank you. We thank you. We thank you. We thank you. Hallelujah. We thank you, Father. We thank you, Father. We give you glory. Of course, this is in line with what Romans 1:11 says. For I long to see you that I may impart some spiritual gift to the end that you may be established. Notice God imparts to us with the end in mind. He doesn't just impart to us for what we need today. He imparts so that the end can be reached, not. Not the fulfillment. Not just reaching the end of life, but the fulfillment of what belongs to us. Amen. And many, many ministers and even congregation members don't realize this, that the reason they struggle is they lack impartations. Sometimes they like impartations. They're not. They're not perceptive to get around where they need to be. And that not perceiving that. I need something more to help me get over. I need something more to help me get over. I need something more to help me get over. I've had this in my heart. Brother Jacob, come up here. Come here. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Yeah, pass her off if you could, too. You have to understand this. As much as God's plan is honorable, the devil hates it to the degree that God loves it. So know this, that the devil does not want you in God's best, which is God's plan, which is what pastor was talking about today. So just know this, the devil's not just trying to hurt this and hurt that and hurt this in your life. He's after the plan. Go to fight for the plan. Meaning you keep everything in your life off that plan. You're not stealing my plan. You're not stealing God's plan plan from me. You're not stealing this from me. And it separates you from those who don't have the same value system. And that's all right. That's all right. I mean, my husband, earlier in his ministry, he had to allow people to separate from him because they didn't value the same thing.
A
And.
B
The thing is, is that sometimes we hold on to things thinking that that's where our security is, that's where our safety is. When nothing is safe and secure outside the plan, it's the plan that secures everything. As long as you're with the plan, it doesn't matter what or who comes or leaves Your life. When my husband went home to be with the Lord, I said to the kids, okay, we turned the page. Today that page turns because now we move on to the next chapter. And in that, I knew this, that when my husband left, the plan didn't leave. And so the plan is still intact. Let's go with the plan. And that's where the joy of living is, is with carrying out that plan in his presence. So everything that the devil. And I'm just saying I just had this in my heart for you during this service. Everything of the. The. The strategies, the devices of the enemy to get you off course, we come against them. We come against them. Give me your hands, Father. Give me your other hand too, Father. I thank you. Free. Free. Free to run the plan. Free to fulfill the plan. Amen. I want anything away from my life that will not escape. Assist me in the plan and anything that will assist me. You're welcome. You're welcome. If it's people, if it's jobs, if it's opportunities, they're welcome in my life. If they're assisting me, if they don't assist the plan, you're excused. If you're not interested in the plan, you're excused. I'm not talking necessarily about people, but what about interests? What about hobbies and pastimes? God doesn't mind us having hobbies and things, but not when they start subtracting from the plan. Amen. And the devil will use things that are perfectly legitimate to subtract. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You just have to keep answering. You just have to keep answering. Amen. That's why I've. I've told the kids and different ones around me, I'm really slow to make decisions until I know, because once I know, because I don't care, because opposition is going to come and you have to know it's the plan. When you're facing oppositions, you have to. To know. Before I make a move, I make sure it's the plan. Because when opposition comes, all I have to say is, no, that's. That's what God said. That's what God said. So I don't care what the opposition is. You always have to be able to say what God said. So you have to take time to gain clarity of the plan at the step you're at, not far advanced, but just at the step you're at. You have to wait and know in your heart what is on going. God saying, because the plan will get you to the other side of the opposition. Hallelujah.

Dufresne Ministries Podcast
Date: April 25, 2019
Guest Minister: Pastor Noel Ramos
Host: Dufresne Ministries (including Pastor Nancy Dufresne)
This episode features Pastor Noel Ramos teaching on the importance of discerning and following God's unique plan for each believer's life. Drawing from personal testimony, scripture, and practical experience, Pastor Ramos emphasizes the necessity of prayer, the renewal of the mind, the development of character, and absolute dependence on the Holy Spirit. The central message is that true fulfillment, provision, and joy—and even longevity—are connected to diligently seeking and following God's plan, rather than personal ambition or comfort.
The episode is candid, passionate, practical, and filled with urgency without condemnation. Both ministers use personal stories, humor (“intense fellowship” in marriage), and direct references to both scripture and spiritual experiences. The tone is inviting, fatherly yet challenging—encouraging listeners to pursue God’s best and warning of the cost of complacency or carnality.
