So when Jonathan prayed for me, he specifically called out the blood. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder a couple of months ago and I've had a lot of issues with that. When I came tonight, I wasn't expecting this at all. But he called it out and I know it was the Lord and I just. I know that it's healed, it's gone, it's done, it's over with. In the name of Jesus. He is my healer, my God, my Father. I love him. Thank you so much for doing this.

We are raising up a family in this church. We're raising up a family in Pittsburgh. We're raising up a family in Texas that don't just know about God. They know God. They've handled his power. They've seen his power flow through him. You're coming out of here today carrying fresh fire, fresh anointing, never to take another backward step. Give Jesus another great hand clap. I want to read a couple verse of scripture, how to do amazing things in life without any money, any help, or any qualification. Now maybe you have help, money and qualification. I've got money now and I got help. I still don't have qualification. But if you throw a suit on people, just assume you do. So you can skip that one. But I would say those three things are the three things that keep people from doing anything. I don't have any. I mean, I've been. I've been in the ministry now 23 years. I would love to do something like that, Brother Jonathan, but I don't have any help. I don't. We don't really have anybody to help us. We have a small budget. I don't really have any schooling in that area. You're gonna find all through the Bible. In fact, the Bible says it directly that God deliberately chose things the world called foolish in order to shame those who, who are powerful. And what I'm really going to preach on today is a spiritual gift that's listed as one of the nine gifts of the Spirit called the gift of faith or special faith that there's a flow you can tap into from God where not only do you do great things for God, you don't even feel like you're doing anything. It's almost like you're just watching God work on your behalf. Those gifts are not given to preachers. They are gifts given to the body of Christ. And we're instructed to covet earnestly those gifts. Can you say amen? I want to say this right up front. It holds people back. How many know God gave Abraham a promise. The promise was that he was going to have what? A child. And so he believed that promise. He never doubted. But the mistake he made at one point was he took the promise God gave him and decided to make it happen in the flesh. You know, I'll get my wife's old. I'm going to get Hagar, her maidservant, and I'm going to have a child through her. And he had a son. But it caused a problem because it was making the promise happen in the flesh. Many people, particularly the people I'm preaching to today, they're well versed in the promises of God. I'm not preaching to morons here in Texas or in Pennsylvania. A lot of you are seasoned church people. I've been in the ministry 23 years. Some of you have been in church. How many have been going to church more than 40 years? Let me see your hands. And you go to a Texas church where here there would be a more prevailing proper doctrine that's taught and preached. You know, about God's promises of finances and doing big things. But if you don't know how to do it, you end up doing things in the flesh. You know how many churches like, like we've, we've acquired this one for Sundays. How many churches have. Are sitting empty in Texas that at one time they had enough movement to build a huge church? The original church that built this building, I don't think it's in existence anymore. There's all kinds of ministries. They get loans. The, the, the bank takes them out because they knew they were to build a church, but they didn't know there's a way not only to have what God promised, but to do it in the spirit and not by the flesh. Today something's going to get on you out of the Bible that you're going to come out of here and you're going to do great things for God. I know on a service like today, we should be having live camels in here and hay and a play. But you know what we're taking today to do? We're not waiting till New Year's Eve. God's going to put a fire in your spirit and you're going to run from December 2020. Five into January, 2026. And just like my friend that got the vehicle, you're going to have the greatest year you've ever had. Not by might, not by power, but by the spirit of Almighty God. If you receive it, can you give the Lord a great hand clap and a mighty shout? I'm going to read another scripture that I didn't plan on reading. Go to 1 Corinthians, chapter 1. How many are glad you came to church today? Amen. First Corinthians, chapter one, verse 26. Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world's eyes, powerful or wealthy, when God called you instead. God deliberately chose things the world thinks are foolish in order to shame those who think they're wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful. God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important. As a result, no man can ever boast in the presence of God. Put Genesis 17, verse 1 up King James. Sorry. Genesis 17. 1. And when Abram was 90 years old and 9. That's a fancy way of saying 99. When Abram was 99 years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, I am the almighty God. Walk before me and be thou perfect. That word in the Hebrew. Go ahead, go for verse two. That's good. But then don't do any more on the reading the whole chapter, because I like all of them. And I will make a covenant between me and thee and will multiply thee exceedingly. Say that nice and loud. I'll multiply you exceedingly. Yeah. You don't come into contact with God and go backwards. You come into contact with God and you multiply exceedingly. You know, everything that we're doing that seems strange when you think about it Biblically, it would be strange not to start in Pittsburgh, Fort Worth, Louisiana, Arizona, and whatever God will do from here. Because with God, you never go backwards. In fact, even when God gave Adam and Eve the Garden of Eden, what do you think? They were going to live in the Garden of Eden? No. They were going to tend that garden, multiply, and from that place, subdue the whole Earth. Can you say amen? So I want you to say something with me. Everything with God is anointed to multiply. And as soon as you start thinking maintenance or how can we pay the bills, I'm telling you, I fear for churches when I hear them preaching and their goal is, you know, we need a new roof. There's a problem There's a problem if your goal, eventually everybody needs a new roof. But if your goal for the year is to fix the roof, there's a problem because those things are just sad things where the money will easily come in if you're multiplying, can you say amen? And so from today, I'm telling you, a year of this new administration where the wind is at the back and the economy is ripping. The economy in Texas. If you live in Texas, you shouldn't listen to anything about the national economy because the national economy would basically be flat if it wasn't for Texas. Texas is far and away the number one economy. But you know what? You'll find a way. If you don't, if you don't move and you don't know the Bible, you'll live in the richest economy in the world and find a way to struggle. But when you have these principles, you can live in the poorest place on planet Earth and you'll turn a desert into a garden by the power of God, the power of God that can change a nation is coming into your house today and your family will never be the same. In Jesus mighty name, if you believe it, can you say aloud, amen how to do it? So let me see. Genesis 17:1. That word in the Hebrew, as many of you know, almighty God is El shaddai, which means literally God. Hebrew has word pictures. God told Abraham, who was a cattle rancher, that I am the many breasted one. I have more than enough provision for all my children. I'm going to tell you something right now. I would be dead if this, if what I'm preaching to you wasn't true, because I thought we were going to have 800 to a thousand people show up for that event. We had 1100 in 1066. In Pittsburgh, we had 1374. I believe our outreach in Fort Worth and in Houston, we don't have a church and we've done Christmas outreaches before. 8001000 is normal. Well, I had money for a thousand toys then when in three days, 22,000 people registered with a week and a half to go, and the registrations doubled the next week. Let me tell you what I would do if I was a normal person. I would say shut registrations down because we're not going to have enough toys and, and we got to scramble now. But you know, I've always felt, if you're going to go down, go down swinging, let's see what happens. You know, if God's the one, and I know he's the one, one of the reasons you haven't seen me make any missteps, not that I've never made any missteps, but I haven't made any in the last five years is because all the goals I had in ministry were very small goals. I didn't expect a lot of myself and I was able to do the small goals that I had by 2018. So once my personal ambition was gone, I don't actually have any plans to do anything. I don't, I don't literally. I have like no drive in my flesh. There's nothing I feel like doing. I'm not thinking about where to start a fifth church. I wasn't thinking about where to start a first church. And once I got my goals out of the way, it's made me be able to very clearly hear the voice of the Lord because I don't have any plans. Plans. I was playing NHL 26, the video game with my friends and all of a sudden I got stirred. Find a place with high childhood poverty and a warm climate in America and do a toy distribution to that place that was the Lord speaking. Well, here's the thing I've grow, I've developed a confidence in and you're going to develop a confidence as you step out in this is that when the Lord tells you to do something, he's just looking for a vessel and hands and feet that'll move and then all of go power backs you as you do the thing that he's called you to do. From today, you will enjoy God's divine backing like never before in Jesus mighty name. So I, I looked on chat GPT found some places in warm climates. We ended up deciding on Houston. I was planning on a thousand people and then we find out 22,000 people. Now again, none of this. It's to show you how a weak vessel that understands the gift of faith and that Godzilla should die. How you'll never limit yourself to your funds, your qualification and how many people you have to help you. So when when the registration went up. I mean think about it. Most churches can't even have a pizza party for their youth group without charging $6 per teenager $4 for a spaghetti dinner. They don't that that's so antithetical of Christianity where Jesus told 5,000 men, not counting the women and children to sit down because he would feed them. And he took five loaves and two fish. And what wasn't enough became more than enough. The Bible says everybody ate until full and there was plenty left over. Can you say, in fact, put John chapter 6 up. John chapter 6, verses 5 through 13. You can do NLT. When Jesus lifted up his eyes, he saw a great. You knew nlt Jesus because it said a great company had come. You start thinking about like Chevron. Jesus soon saw a huge crowd of people coming to look for him. Turning to Philip, he asked, where can we buy bread to put that in the King James. I don't think he. I don't think he said, where can we? He said it differently in the King James at least. Whence shall we buy bread? That he said in the Philip, where will we get bread that these may eat? 6. You can go back to NLT. And he said this to prove, Philip, I want you to catch this. 5,000 men, not counting the women and children. It'd be like a stadium crusade. And me turning to Pastor Michael and Pastor Shannon going, where are we going to get lunch for all these people? No, no, just have them go home. They can eat on the way home. They got money, there's food, they sell food in town. That's an insane request. No one's expecting you to feed all these people. He was testing Philip because he already knew. I'm telling you, if you'll let this get in your spirit, it'll change. You'll never split a check at a restaurant again. Everybody say, start where you're at. So I'm not expecting you to feed a crusade full of people, but you can start by when you go to Cracker Barrel having faith for the whole 17 check, not just your 850. Can you say amen? He was testing Philip for he already, by the way, this is not the offering, so you can loosen up and enjoy the message. He was testing Philip for he already knew what he was going to do. 7 Philip replied, Even if we worked for months, we wouldn't have enough money to feed them. Put King James up. Philip answered him, 200 pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little. What we have would not, would not like. It's insane. There's not a way to do this. 8. And you go back to NLT. One of his disciples, Andrew Simon, Peter's brother, said unto him then, Andrew, Simon, okay, there's a young boy here with five barley loaves and two fish. Keep that up there. But what good is that among this huge, huge crowd? Now, the first guy had no faith. That's impossible. There's not enough money to do it. But then faith. See, if you get your mind pointed in the direction of increase. It'll start stirring people around you and stir you too.

I live in South Dakota, and my son goes to Rhema. And I got a call from the emergency room because my son was unresponsive and he was not breathing. He went into some sort of diabetic ketoacidosis. His. His triglycerides were over 3500. His sugars were over 800. He was hallucinating. He was vomiting all night. His kidneys, his liver, and his pancreas weren't working. They were asking me for permission to save his life. I said, yes, do what you got to do. And I yelled to my husband, we got to go right now. My husband knew he was on his way to urgent care because he was sick. I was like, we got to go right now. But the Lord told me, don't say anything. Don't let fear in. And this message was just in my spirit. And so we get in the car and we start driving. We have a nine hour drive. Then while in the middle of driving, I started to get consumed with fear because I was the only one that knew that my son was not alive and he was unresponsive. And so I told my daughter, put that message on again that we were listening to. So we're in the car and we were listening to Power of the Devil. And then the next one was stepping into the divine nature of Jesus Christ. And so we listened to that all the way down from South Dakota to Tulsa, and we're praying. And so we walk into the hospital room and I see my son. He's in the icu and he has tubes, he's swollen. He has a machine breathing for him. He's ice cold, he has no color. And we walk into the room and I say, in the name of Jesus Christ, you're gonna get up and you will declare the works of the Lord in the land of the living. God is not done with you. You will wake up in Jesus name. I went into the other room and I started crying, but I was jumping and. And I wouldn't let fear come out of my mouth because the message had just been so planted in me. So I just started crying and declaring that I will not fear the devil and he will let my son go. The next day, the next morning, my son woke up. The doctors to this day don't know what they said. It was some type of diabetic thing. They don't know what caused it because everything. He's alive, he's out of the hospital, he's Walking, he shouldn't be. The way his numbers were. They said he should be dead. They've never seen anything like this. But he's alive.

8. And you go back to NLT. One of his disciples, Andrew Simon, Peter's brother, said unto him. Then, Then, Andrew Simon, okay, there's a young boy here with five barley loaves and two fish. Keep that up there. But what good is that among this huge crowd? Now, the first guy had no faith. There's. That's impossible. There's not enough money to do it. But then, faith. See, if you get your mind pointed in the direction of increase, it'll start stirring people around you and stir you too. So then the one guy, well, one boy brought five loaves of bread and two fish. But what's that among this? So you say with me, start where you're at Jesus. There's a young boy with five barley loaves and two fish. But what good is that with this huge crowd? 10. Tell everyone to sit down. Jesus said. So they all sat down on grassy slopes. The men alone numbered just the men, five thousand. Eleven. Then Jesus took the loaves. By the way, when you're reading this, and I'm sure there's no one this way here, because we're in Texas and Pittsburgh, you've been taught better for four years. But when people teach that Jesus was poor, Like, how do you read a story like this, which is not a one off that he commanded? I'm not saying he had an American Express card, no one did. I'm saying to be able to tell 5,000 men, plus their women and children, tell everyone to sit down and I'm going to feed everybody. And you feed everybody and collect the baskets, that's a man that mastered provision. When you tell a man to take his boat and go out and let down the nets, and the nets begin to tear and the boats begin to sink, that's not poverty. That's Jesus reflecting his father, who is El Shaddai, the God of more than enough. I tell you again today, you will never be broke. Another day in your life. The Lord's gonna take you from where you are now and multiply you all these 12 and a half months in Jesus name. Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks to God. Say something with me. Until I thank God for what I have, nothing will ever multiply. So you have to. You heard my title. I would let that be the last time that ever comes out of your mouth. I don't have. I would never start a sentence with I don't Have I? Don't say it. I refuse to say we don't have. You know, Lord, you told me to start a church in Fort Worth. I don't even know any places to meet down there. La. I don't have a place. I don't have people, I don't have greeters. You'd be amazed what will happen if you start saying thank you, Father, that your El Shaddai, the God of more than enough, and he that called me is faithful to bring to pass the thing that he called me to do. I thank you that I have all I need according to your riches and glory through Christ Jesus. All I need is not just money. All I need buildings, transportation, clothing for my children, food for my belly. I don't have less than enough. I have more than enough because I serve the God of more than enough. If you believe it, can you say amen? Somebody say El Shaddai, the God of more than enough. I told the when I was preaching in Hobbs, New Mexico this week, you know, when I found out there were 20 some thousand registrations. If you tell everybody they're getting Christmas gifts in the hood and they come and there's 20,000 people or end up being 10,300 show up and you've got 800 gifts, you as the pastor are going to see the Lord and rightfully so, walk from their homes in the heat. Sorry, we're out of toys. It would have made national news. Church holds a vent. 21 dead, 43 injured as they beat each other to death for go karts. That's exactly what would have happened. But then, so what do you do? Do you shut registrations down? You tell people to go home? Do you tell people this is a mistake? You know, we don't have enough cut registration, make an announcement that too many people have signed up? No. It's almost like God will test you to see what you'll do. Now let's see what happens because I know it wasn't my idea and I know I don't know how to get 20,000 people to sign up for something. So maybe this is the wind of God and since he started it, just throw up a sail and see what the wind will do and you'll find there's a miracle at work. Can you say amen? I want to tell everybody that's here, some of you, you're out of space at your company. Some of you, you're out of parking. Sometimes things that seem like a problem are actually something God's using to push you to step forward. In Jesus name can you say Amen? There's a friend of mine in the ministry. This is about 15 years ago, he had a church that he started. They were meeting in an elementary school. They had been meeting in an elementary school for a while. There were a lot of people coming, a good amount of people coming. He was doing well. Then the school started to change their attitude towards him and. And then he got, you know, we don't like that you move this. Someone left the Bible in one of the classrooms, and the teacher was upset, started to get emails from the new administration. Then they told him in September that we're not renewing your lease after October. Well, now he has no place. They've got no funds for a church. He went to. He went to the bank, asked if he could get a loan for the church. The bank told him, we don't give loans to churches and you don't have the credit for them. You know, that would make you sad. I don't know what. But sometimes, and I don't mean to say Christian cliches, but this one's true, sometimes rejection is God's direction. The reason the door is shut is God doesn't want to work through natural means. God doesn't want Wells Fargo to get the glory. God wants him to get the glory and prove that he's El Shaddai, the God of more than enough. Can you say amen? Can you say a better amen? And so he called me, and again, I'm not trying to be the hero here. And it was easy for me to say because it wasn't me that was on the hook. But he said, they're kicking me out of the school. I went to the bank, they won't give me a loan. And I called the other schools and they won't let me in. And I said, well, since that's the case, and since I know God called you to start a church here, let's take that as a sign that it's time to get a building. He said, yeah, but I just told you we don't have the loan money. I'm going to tell you something. I got that book laying out there that Adalys, and I wrote how God Heals Without Doctors, Medicine, or Surgery. When people read that in America, they get offended because they love pharmaceuticals and they love hospitals. So they said, no, there's good doctors. I didn't say God doesn't like doctors. I didn't say doctors don't help people. I said, there's a God that heals supernaturally. Without doctors, without surgery, and without medicine. And I want to take it over to the financial realm. There's a God that turns property over without loans, without banks, without the world system. The end time church will operate above the systems of this world in Jesus name. Is it just me or is this mic going like al when I preach hard, I'm telling you, I don't think it's just me. Gets like, muted when I start preaching a little bit. Receive the Holy Ghost. All right, so everyone say this. God operates outside of man's systems. Now let's read the rest of that story. John. John 6. Where am I at? Then? Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks to God, and distributed. And I want to say that Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks to God. One translation says, he gave thanks for it, and then he blessed it. So say this. Never focus on what you don't have. Thank God for what you do have. That's right. And then when you do that, what you have begins to multiply. Complaining diminishes what you have. Thanking God causes what you have to multiply. Hallelujah. It must have made God. It must have made God laugh or smile at some point. When Adalus and I had a Costco freezer bag full of mozzarella sticks and a deep fryer in our apartment, and that was our food for the next 11 days, my mom said, you smell Mike. Sounds good. My. My mom said you guys smelled like poor people because we lived in a small apartment with fried food. You said, that's rude. My mother said it, not me. I'm just telling you what she said to me. And so we're eating mozzarella sticks for lunch. We're meeting up, eating mozzarella sticks for dinner. That's a recipe to start getting diseases that pirates had, like scurvy and stuff like that. You know, every time we would eat those mozzarella sticks, I didn't say, well, normally we bless the food and give thanks to God for it, but this is my third day having mozzarella sticks. I'm not thanking God. I'm out there preaching the gospel and I'm eating like somebody that. That's worse than on government assistance. But no, it must have made God laugh when we'd bow our heads with a little dish of marinara sauce and five mozzarella sticks per plate and say, thank you, Father, for this meal. I don't know that that qualifies as a meal, but we called it a meal. Didn't even have the green parsley like they give you at the restaurant. Thank you Father for this food that we're about to receive. We bless it, nourish it to our bodies. It'd be a miracle to nourish mozzarella sticks from a freezer bag to your body. But God can do the impossible. I feel like certain things that we did back then at 25 and 26, living in a 600 square foot apartment, eating mozzarella sticks and lifting our hands and thanking God for food. When you thank God for what you have, you know. At that time, Adoles had just had her car repossessed. We told people we sold the car, which was true. The bank made us sell the car. They took it and sold it for us. We had a car repossessed. We were eating mozzarella sticks. But a few years down the line, we're giving cars away to other people. We're helping people in Houston. It wasn't too many. It wasn't too many years ago where I didn't have money to get a gift for a dollar. Some camila. But now 18 wheelers are are coming in with 20,000 toys. Because with God, where you start is never where you finish. Thank God for what you have and the blessing will increase. I said the blessing will increase. You serve El Shaddai, the God of more than enough. If you receive it, let your hand clap and shout. Be the loudest on this Sunday. Sam.
