What if you could perceive time not as a relentless march but as a dynamic interplay with eternity? Today, we invite you to rethink your relationship with divine timing, encouraging a shift from secondhand faith to a profoundly personal connection with God. We'll explore how this transformation equips us with the spiritual armor necessary to withstand satanic adversaries. Through personal reflections and biblical narratives, discover how God reveals Himself to those who earnestly seek Him, offering divine protection and guiding them towards spiritual transformation.

As we journey further, we'll challenge the ordinary understanding of time, illustrating how God’s plans are intricately woven beyond the constraints of human chronology. By drawing from the stories of David and Solomon, see how divine intentions transcend the earthly confines of past, present, and future. We'll explore the notion that understanding time as a creation can lead us to align with God’s eternal realm, inviting His purpose and righteousness into our lives and opening the door to miraculous events and a life filled with divine promise.

Join us as we reflect on those powerful moments where eternity intersects with our temporal existence. Through inspiring biblical accounts and historical examples, we'll highlight how embracing God’s eternal realm allows believers to rise above the ordinary. Witness how this transformative faith not only brings healing and deliverance but also redefines the very essence of our lives. By embracing a deeper connection with the divine, find renewed hope and courage to trust in God's plan, guiding you towards greater spiritual heights and a life of miraculous change.

00:00:00.601 --> 00:00:02.790
Glory to God, hallelujah.

00:00:02.790 --> 00:00:16.269
You are going to trust this God to keep you whenever the enemy raises up a standard, whenever the enemy comes in to attack.

00:00:16.269 --> 00:00:33.375
And he will, and he has, and he will again, and we live in a time when those attacks are going to be stronger, more coordinated, more determined than ever.

00:00:33.375 --> 00:00:36.764
Amen, when it comes in.

00:00:36.764 --> 00:00:49.322
If you're going to trust your God to be your deliverer and then we learned last week that he has to be, to be, your god he can't be somebody else's god that you're going to borrow.

00:00:49.322 --> 00:00:52.469
You know, oh, I've heard about that.

00:00:52.469 --> 00:00:52.789
God.

00:00:52.789 --> 00:00:54.393
Look, would you pray for me?

00:00:54.393 --> 00:00:55.402
You know you get these.

00:00:55.402 --> 00:00:59.720
Somebody wants, wants you to pray for them, because they can't pray themselves.

00:00:59.720 --> 00:01:00.722
They don't know him.

00:01:00.722 --> 00:01:22.444
It's pretty hard to pray to a God with with a lot of conviction and faith, to a God that you don't know, and not only that that you know him, but you know that he comes through for you, that he always is there for you, and you have learned to trust him because he is your God.

00:01:22.444 --> 00:01:33.144
Paul said my God shall supply all of my need according to his riches and glory, by Christ Jesus.

00:01:33.144 --> 00:01:41.043
He didn't say your God that I've heard about, or that my God is going to supply your need.

00:01:41.043 --> 00:01:43.087
See, that's what a lot of people want.

00:01:43.087 --> 00:01:52.493
They want to lean on you because you know God, and then they want that God that you know to supply their need, and sometimes that'll work.

00:01:52.493 --> 00:01:55.424
But what happens if you're not around?

00:01:55.424 --> 00:02:04.652
What happens if the cell phone doesn't get you know, he's forgotten your number and he can't get a hold of you and all of a sudden he can't lean on that God that you know.

00:02:04.652 --> 00:02:13.002
We've all been around people like that.

00:02:13.002 --> 00:02:14.346
You know that, that they want to lean on the God that you know.

00:02:14.346 --> 00:02:14.826
But that's not how.

00:02:14.826 --> 00:02:15.449
That's not how David saw it.

00:02:15.449 --> 00:02:17.420
David saw it like this he said you are my God.

00:02:17.420 --> 00:02:19.623
Paul said he is my God.

00:02:19.623 --> 00:02:24.169
My God shall supply Hallelujah.

00:02:24.169 --> 00:02:31.569
And your God is the God that you have a personal relationship with and he has revealed himself to keep you.

00:02:31.569 --> 00:02:36.532
He has revealed himself to reveal himself more.

00:02:36.532 --> 00:02:52.991
And that's the amazing thing about God is that he always wants to be sought after so that he can always be that God that is found and then reveals more of himself to you.

00:02:52.991 --> 00:02:56.530
We ended up last week talking about that.

00:02:56.530 --> 00:03:09.116
You've got to be convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that all he really wants to do with you is to shape you and form you into his image.

00:03:09.116 --> 00:03:24.693
And if he can do that, then there is no weapon formed against you that can prosper, because every time the enemy comes in like a flood, the spirit of God that dwells in you and is forming you is going to raise up a standard against him.

00:03:24.693 --> 00:03:28.325
Amen, and that's as real as it gets.

00:03:29.288 --> 00:03:35.871
That's your, that is your absolute first and last line of defense.

00:03:35.871 --> 00:03:38.175
You know you may be able.

00:03:38.175 --> 00:03:39.844
You may be able to bind devils.

00:03:39.844 --> 00:03:40.687
You may be able to.

00:03:40.687 --> 00:03:44.180
You know, confess your way, you know, into glory.

00:03:44.180 --> 00:03:49.393
You may be able to have all the weapons of your warfare that are mighty through God.

00:03:49.393 --> 00:04:07.213
You might be able to do all of that stuff, but until you are convinced that you are being shapen into the image of God, the devil can always hit you with something that you don't have the tools yet to defend yourself.

00:04:07.213 --> 00:04:20.507
How many of you have been in a situation where the enemy came in at you, you didn't know what you do and all you could do was get the words of Jesus out of your mouth and the devil fled?

00:04:20.507 --> 00:04:22.132
Amen.

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:23.345
We've all had that happen.

00:04:23.345 --> 00:04:26.228
It's a real common experience, you know.

00:04:26.228 --> 00:04:27.625
A lot of times it happens at night.

00:04:27.625 --> 00:04:29.456
You'll be in the middle of a dream or something.

00:04:29.456 --> 00:04:33.245
You'll think you're being suffocated or you're just everything's surrounding you.

00:04:33.245 --> 00:04:35.851
Speak the word of Jesus.

00:04:35.851 --> 00:04:39.062
Speak the name of Jesus, amen.

00:04:39.062 --> 00:04:40.444
Everything just goes away.

00:04:40.444 --> 00:04:43.249
Peace is restored, hallelujah.

00:04:43.449 --> 00:04:45.812
But there's a reason why that works.

00:04:45.812 --> 00:04:53.649
It's not just that you say the name, but in saying the name there's a forming going on.

00:04:53.649 --> 00:05:09.702
You don't know this, but the Holy Ghost knows these things and he knows what he's doing as he forms you Hallelujah, he forms you Hallelujah.

00:05:09.702 --> 00:05:10.685
And there listen to me very carefully.

00:05:10.685 --> 00:05:13.071
There will come a day in your life when you will not have to say the name.

00:05:13.071 --> 00:05:23.331
You will be the name and if they dare to even come around you, the very presence of Jesus will scare them right back into hell.

00:05:23.331 --> 00:05:31.170
See what they didn't know when they come around and sniff around your bed at night and try to scare you and all that stuff.

00:05:31.170 --> 00:05:37.129
They didn't know that the Holy Ghost in you was going to bring Jesus to bear on them.

00:05:37.129 --> 00:05:38.946
They didn't know that.

00:05:38.946 --> 00:05:42.189
They thought they were just going to scare you to death, amen.

00:05:42.189 --> 00:05:55.793
But when Jesus gets so formed in you that there's no difference, no separation, they won't be doing that, they'll go find somebody else that they can terrorize.

00:05:55.793 --> 00:05:56.923
He doesn't know this yet.

00:05:56.923 --> 00:06:00.672
Glory to God, are you getting you hearing what I'm saying?

00:06:00.672 --> 00:06:02.302
Praise God.

00:06:02.302 --> 00:06:03.925
So I left you with this.

00:06:04.084 --> 00:06:19.202
One thought last week that in verse 15 of chapter 31 in the book of Psalms, david makes this remarkable statement and he says my times are in your hand.

00:06:19.202 --> 00:06:32.620
And we started talking about the difference between our time, the time that we live in, the created time, the time that comes out of creation.

00:06:32.620 --> 00:06:39.834
At the beginning of creation, when God brought everything into existence, there was no time.

00:06:39.834 --> 00:06:43.610
Time is a created thing.

00:06:43.610 --> 00:06:46.101
Time is a created thing.

00:06:46.101 --> 00:07:09.644
Around 120 some years ago, people thought there were only three dimensions, and then Einstein came along and wrote a document in 1905 that changed things forever and it introduced the concept of space-time and that there are actually four dimensions.

00:07:09.644 --> 00:07:13.100
They found out later that there's actually a lot more dimensions than this.

00:07:13.100 --> 00:07:25.209
It came into existence at the moment of creation Amen, but before that time didn't exist and time never has existed with God.

00:07:26.500 --> 00:07:37.665
For the sake of argument, we're going to talk about the times that God lives in as being eternity, because it's easier to talk about.

00:07:37.665 --> 00:07:40.232
God has times, but his times are eternal.

00:07:40.232 --> 00:07:44.946
And since they're eternal, they're not quite the way that we think of time.

00:07:44.946 --> 00:07:49.531
We think of time as yesterday, today and tomorrow as this line, as this.

00:07:49.531 --> 00:08:05.348
You know, once you get past yesterday and you're into today, you can't change anything about yesterday and you can't change too much about tomorrow, but you can only change what's in front of you today, mathematically speaking.

00:08:05.389 --> 00:08:10.255
A lot of people will argue this point that there is no such thing as yesterday and tomorrow.

00:08:10.255 --> 00:08:24.130
There's only this, now that you're in now, and all you can do about this now is you can't go back and repeat what happened yesterday and we haven't developed yet how to go forward and change that.

00:08:24.130 --> 00:08:35.628
So you're stuck in this now and that's this time that everybody seems to be moving along in, and it moves in one direction.

00:08:35.628 --> 00:08:39.628
It doesn't move in a whole bunch of directions, it moves in one direction.

00:08:39.628 --> 00:08:42.889
It goes from here to there.

00:08:43.681 --> 00:09:09.399
Proof of that is, if I brought an egg in here and dropped it on the floor and it splattered all over the floor, you could wait here a billion years and probably never experience the egg jumping off the floor back onto the table and reassembling the yolk and the shell all around it.

00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.548
It's possible that could happen, but it's not very likely.

00:09:13.548 --> 00:09:18.182
Matter of fact, it's so unlikely that it's almost impossible.

00:09:18.182 --> 00:09:22.830
And the reason that is is because time moves this way.

00:09:22.830 --> 00:09:29.923
That egg that splattered on the floor is in some form of time that has passed.

00:09:29.923 --> 00:09:38.765
For that egg to jump up and reassemble itself back into this, it would have to jump up and reassemble itself backwards in time.

00:09:38.765 --> 00:09:40.249
Glory to God.

00:09:40.249 --> 00:09:47.721
I'm just saying time goes this way, god.

00:09:47.721 --> 00:09:49.864
I'm just saying time goes this way and we all live in that time.

00:09:49.884 --> 00:09:53.028
David said to God that time that I'm in, that created time, I'm going to place in your hands.

00:09:53.028 --> 00:09:54.292
Why?

00:09:54.292 --> 00:10:03.989
Because God has an infinity of times that he can then make available to David.

00:10:03.989 --> 00:10:17.807
When God said David, your hands are too bloody to build me a house, but I'm going to allow your son to build me a house, but I will give you the plans.

00:10:17.807 --> 00:10:28.379
Now, all of that took place in a matter of a certain amount of years with David and Solomon Amen.

00:10:28.379 --> 00:10:30.784
In a matter of a certain amount of years with David and Solomon Amen.

00:10:30.784 --> 00:10:35.575
But David stepped right out of his time and said okay, if you're not going to, let me build it, I want to see the plans.

00:10:35.575 --> 00:10:40.866
So Solomon didn't have to come up with the plans.

00:10:41.447 --> 00:10:58.730
David came up with the plans for something that wouldn't happen for quite a while, but I'm telling you that those plans that David got and then transmitted to Solomon, along with the money that it would take to do that amen.

00:10:58.730 --> 00:11:03.224
God had all that figured out, not before.

00:11:03.224 --> 00:11:05.070
This is what I want you to get.

00:11:05.070 --> 00:11:07.365
He didn't have that figured out before.

00:11:07.447 --> 00:11:11.568
David needed it, because in God, there is no before.

00:11:11.568 --> 00:11:14.447
He always had it available.

00:11:14.447 --> 00:11:15.571
Do you understand?

00:11:15.571 --> 00:11:17.386
See, this is what I'm trying to get you to.

00:11:18.280 --> 00:11:22.392
With God, there's never a before and there's never an after.

00:11:22.392 --> 00:11:24.368
There's not a yesterday and tomorrow.

00:11:24.368 --> 00:11:26.169
Amen, never a before and there's never an after.

00:11:26.169 --> 00:11:26.956
There's not a yesterday and tomorrow.

00:11:26.956 --> 00:11:27.057
Amen.

00:11:27.057 --> 00:11:32.207
He is always and whatever he knows has always been with him.

00:11:32.207 --> 00:12:19.572
Whatever he's going to do has always been in his plan, and so when he decided he would, when he always decided that he was going to build a temple in Jerusalem, he always decided it was going to be through the King David, and it was always decided that it was going to be through the hands of his son, solomon, and it was always going to be decided that David was going to be the forefather of Jesus and Jesus would walk the steps of that temple and stand up in John chapter 7 and say In the last day, in the great day of the feast, he stood and cried with a loud voice If any man thirst, god already, god had always decided those things.

00:12:19.572 --> 00:12:22.107
So David made a transaction with God.

00:12:22.107 --> 00:12:27.211
He says I'm going to trade this time, this created time.

00:12:27.211 --> 00:12:34.614
I'm going to use the terms created time, man's time, carnal time, ready time.

00:12:34.614 --> 00:12:36.886
It's a time that's always ready.

00:12:39.784 --> 00:12:52.448
Jesus said to his brothers when they said you go up, do those miracles in Jerusalem, he said you go up, any time is the right time for you, but my time has not yet come.

00:12:52.448 --> 00:12:56.926
So Jesus was operating in a different time than they were.

00:12:56.926 --> 00:12:59.153
Okay, what time was that?

00:12:59.153 --> 00:13:06.008
Well, he was operating in the eternal time of God.

00:13:06.008 --> 00:13:08.592
Now, when did he get that revelation?

00:13:08.592 --> 00:13:18.610
I don't know, but I can tell you that by the time we get to that episode in John chapter 7, he had that revelation and he was walking in that time.

00:13:19.361 --> 00:13:49.174
He knew enough about all of this that when he got to the temple and he spoke those words if any man thirsts, let him come to me and drink he knew that he was impregnating the church with the word of God at that point, at that place, at that spot, at that eternal time, and that nine months later, in clock time, the church would be brought forth at Pentecost.

00:13:49.174 --> 00:13:54.105
But the church had already been brought forth, it had always been.

00:13:54.105 --> 00:13:55.884
How do I know that?

00:13:55.884 --> 00:14:10.634
Because the church was there at creation when Adam sinned and God prophesied that there's going to be enmity between your seed and her seed.

00:14:10.634 --> 00:14:13.682
Well, eve doesn't have seeds.

00:14:13.682 --> 00:14:15.024
That was another her.

00:14:15.024 --> 00:14:17.711
That other her was the church.

00:14:17.711 --> 00:14:30.841
That had already been what we did, hallelujah.

00:14:30.860 --> 00:14:32.527
So I got home or I was home, actually and I thought I need to try to.

00:14:32.527 --> 00:15:00.013
I need to try to illustrate this for you, because I know I'm talking about some things that sound like that, sound almost crazy, because we are so embedded in what we call time, and this is why I've tried to teach you for over 20 years now, to break all covenants with death so that you can get free of death-focused time.

00:15:00.013 --> 00:15:14.105
All time, all time, all time for men is a journey toward death, and the big puzzle for for man is what happens after death.

00:15:14.105 --> 00:15:27.868
Okay, but for us, the question is not what happens after death, the question is what happened before birth, because if we know what happened before birth, because if we know what happened before birth, then the answer for what happens after death is already answered.

00:15:27.868 --> 00:15:29.513
We're just going back.

00:15:29.513 --> 00:15:34.606
See, if we know what happened before birth, then that means we've come out of time.

00:15:34.606 --> 00:15:35.830
We've come from someplace.

00:15:35.830 --> 00:15:38.062
That's out of time into time.

00:15:38.062 --> 00:15:45.071
We are here for a time and when we leave we'll go back to where we were before time.

00:15:46.352 --> 00:15:52.347
Amen, if we were in God before we got here, that's where we're going back to.

00:15:52.347 --> 00:15:58.865
That's as clear as anything If you can find in the Bible.

00:15:58.865 --> 00:16:00.006
Amen.

00:16:00.006 --> 00:16:10.086
Listen, I can show you in the Bible that there's more evidence in the Bible that where you're going is a place called in him.

00:16:10.086 --> 00:16:18.666
Much more evidence of that than there is that you're going to a place called heaven, because where he is defines heaven.

00:16:18.666 --> 00:16:22.250
If you're going to be in him, that's where heaven is.

00:16:22.250 --> 00:16:24.714
Come on now, amen.

00:16:24.714 --> 00:16:29.287
There's more evidence for that than all of the other things.

00:16:29.287 --> 00:16:35.410
So if we're going to be in him, there's a lot of evidence that says we were in him before we got here.

00:16:35.410 --> 00:16:44.610
So we're coming out of eternity into this thing called time, and when we leave this thing called time, we're going to go back into eternity.

00:16:44.610 --> 00:16:45.591
Amen.

00:16:45.591 --> 00:16:50.032
We're just coming out of him, going back to him, hallelujah.

00:16:50.032 --> 00:16:55.631
But the fact of the matter is that God's eternity is all around us.

00:16:55.631 --> 00:17:02.183
We just don't see it, we just don't experience it the way that he wants us to.

00:17:02.183 --> 00:17:06.770
Hallelujah, praise the Lord, glory to God.

00:17:06.931 --> 00:17:11.963
God's times, the times that God has, are precise.

00:17:11.963 --> 00:17:18.173
They are preordained, they are predetermined, they are eternal and they're not.

00:17:18.173 --> 00:17:19.800
They, they're not measured.

00:17:19.800 --> 00:17:22.586
Time, our time, is measured, amen.

00:17:22.586 --> 00:17:30.285
We measure it with seconds, with minutes, with hours, days, years, decades, centuries.

00:17:30.285 --> 00:17:31.286
We measure time.

00:17:31.286 --> 00:17:35.770
But in order to measure time, it has to be compared.

00:17:35.770 --> 00:17:40.355
Anything that you have, anything that you want to say, this is time.

00:17:40.355 --> 00:17:55.821
Okay, a second is the amount of time that, whatever, and right now we measure in oscillations of a certain atomic isotope, and that you know.

00:17:55.821 --> 00:18:01.691
Don't ask me to explain that, I have no idea, but that's how they measure time now, because it has to be that precise.

00:18:01.691 --> 00:18:15.806
For satellites and all that kind of stuff, amen Used to be, they would take 24 hours and divide it into, you know, divide it by 60 and then divide it by 60 again, and that would tell you how long a second is.

00:18:16.548 --> 00:18:17.330
Follow what I'm saying.

00:18:17.330 --> 00:18:23.752
It has to do anything that you measure time with has to do with something else.

00:18:23.752 --> 00:18:29.972
So it's going to start in how long it takes the Earth to spin, how long it takes the Earth to go around the sun.

00:18:29.972 --> 00:18:39.428
There has to be something that is moving that it's going to determine how long that is, and then that's what we're going to use for a unit of time.

00:18:39.428 --> 00:18:43.642
The longest unit of time we have is something called a light year.

00:18:43.642 --> 00:18:45.728
That's how far light moves in a year.

00:18:45.728 --> 00:18:48.039
Something like 4 trillion miles or something.

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:48.319
I don't know.

00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:53.383
Some huge number, amen, but it has nothing to do.

00:18:53.383 --> 00:18:55.023
It can't.

00:18:55.023 --> 00:18:56.404
It has, but it has nothing to do.

00:18:56.404 --> 00:18:56.585
It can't.

00:18:56.585 --> 00:19:01.928
It has no frame of reference, unless we talk about a beam or a particle of light that is moving.

00:19:01.928 --> 00:19:03.409
Follow what I'm saying.

00:19:03.409 --> 00:19:09.011
This is important Because in eternity there are no frames of reference.

00:19:09.712 --> 00:19:09.992
Amen.

00:19:09.992 --> 00:19:17.217
Everything is always, is always, was and is not the same as it is here.

00:19:17.217 --> 00:19:28.943
Measured time because it is measured against what we see and know.

00:19:28.943 --> 00:19:29.064
Amen.

00:19:29.064 --> 00:19:36.767
It is attached to everything that is around us, but there is a kind of time that exists in God, called eternity, that is not attached to these things.

00:19:36.767 --> 00:19:40.703
It was there before any of these things were here.

00:19:40.703 --> 00:19:43.451
It will be here when all these things are gone.

00:19:44.314 --> 00:19:48.022
Amen, and that's what we belong to.

00:19:48.022 --> 00:19:50.287
We are eternal beings.

00:19:50.287 --> 00:20:00.663
These times that God has can be inserted into this created time has can be inserted into this created time and they can be formed together.

00:20:00.663 --> 00:20:01.586
We talked about this a little bit.

00:20:01.586 --> 00:20:15.851
Your eternity and my eternity can be formed together, and now we have a joined eternity that is different and has more power than it would be otherwise.

00:20:15.851 --> 00:20:40.145
Us together are more powerful than we are alone because of the eternities that are intertwined in this Amen and everything that comes out of eternity angels and ministry, spirits and all the things that come along with this that we bring with us all the time, just because there's more of us where two or three are gathered together.

00:20:40.145 --> 00:20:42.432
There, I am in the midst of them.

00:20:42.432 --> 00:20:47.645
If one can put a thousand to flight and two 10,000, what can three do?

00:20:47.645 --> 00:20:48.468
What can four do?

00:20:48.468 --> 00:20:49.430
What can five do?

00:20:49.430 --> 00:20:56.648
The power that we connect together is exponentially.

00:20:56.648 --> 00:20:59.613
That means it doesn't go like this.

00:20:59.613 --> 00:21:09.893
It means it goes like this exponentially more powerful because of the eternity that is at work.

00:21:09.893 --> 00:21:15.946
So you don't think, we don't think of eternity as having power, but it does.

00:21:16.667 --> 00:21:25.989
I can tell you that anytime somebody gets healed, it's because eternity has interrupted their timeline.

00:21:25.989 --> 00:21:30.240
If you're sick, okay, this is what happened.

00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:34.791
This is just picture the man that's sitting at the steps of the gate.

00:21:34.791 --> 00:21:38.823
Beautiful picture of the man that's sitting at the steps of the gate.

00:21:38.823 --> 00:21:42.410
Beautiful Peter and John come up to him in their timeline and they're intersecting him on his timeline.

00:21:42.410 --> 00:21:44.701
This isn't the first time they've seen each other.

00:21:44.701 --> 00:21:48.692
They've been by there before and that guy's been there all his life.

00:21:48.692 --> 00:21:53.404
But there's always a fullness of time.

00:21:53.404 --> 00:22:06.401
There's a time when the time on your timeline has just reached the end of what it was destined to do and God's time is going to interrupt and it's going to blow it all apart.

00:22:06.401 --> 00:22:08.625
Watch what happens.

00:22:09.847 --> 00:22:13.777
Guy sticks out his hand expecting to receive.

00:22:13.777 --> 00:22:17.152
And what's different about this day and yesterday?

00:22:17.152 --> 00:22:28.044
The difference between yesterday and today is the Holy Ghost, because yesterday Peter walked by and just flipped the guy a coin and went on his merry hand.

00:22:28.044 --> 00:22:43.532
The Holy Ghost said why do you look to us as expecting to receive?

00:22:43.532 --> 00:22:46.646
The Holy Ghost said silver and gold have I?

00:22:46.646 --> 00:22:52.608
None, but such as I have, give I thee, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

00:22:52.608 --> 00:22:54.834
Rise up and walk.

00:22:54.834 --> 00:23:03.848
And he used Peter's hand to extend to the man lifted him up and as he lifted him up, time stopped.

00:23:04.531 --> 00:23:06.700
Now I don't know what happened to all the rest of the people around him.

00:23:06.700 --> 00:23:09.442
I don't care, it's not my business.

00:23:09.442 --> 00:24:18.257
All I know is that time stopped and gave him all of the time eternal time that he needed to grow legs, grow feet, grow bones, grow nerves, learn to walk, learn to jump, learn to dance, learn to leap, and came back into his time and it seemed like an instant and all of a sudden, the man who was laying there in a bowl of jelly called legs was now leaping, jumping and praising God and running into the church house and holding on to Peter and John Amen, fully and totally and instantaneously and miraculously healed, because eternity had broken into his timeline and done this, just put a stop sign on the past and the future and we got stuck in eternal now and in that eternal now, wholeness returned to that man.

00:24:18.257 --> 00:24:21.965
I'm here to tell you anytime somebody gets healed, that's what happens.

00:24:21.965 --> 00:24:25.676
God just breaks in the timeline.

00:24:25.676 --> 00:24:30.403
Glory to God, hallelujah, praise the Lord.

00:24:30.403 --> 00:24:45.327
You have no idea how much eternity bends in on the, on this time that we live in and shapes it and moves it and forms it and intervenes in it and twists it around.

00:24:45.327 --> 00:24:46.890
Glory to god.

00:24:47.592 --> 00:24:54.067
There was a man who was the second command of an army, and that army was.

00:24:54.067 --> 00:25:04.672
It was sent out to take control of the fort that was at pittsburgh in the days before pittsburgh was pittsburgh and it was just called fort pitt.

00:25:04.672 --> 00:25:06.962
They were attacked by indians.

00:25:06.962 --> 00:25:11.270
The leader of the force was killed.

00:25:11.270 --> 00:25:20.353
A second in command took charge, reported, reported after the fact that his coat was riddled with bullet holes.

00:25:20.353 --> 00:25:39.394
And the Indians had a special name for him after that battle and held him in the highest regard because they knew for a fact that many of their bullets and many of their arrows had hit him without question.

00:25:39.394 --> 00:25:52.703
And yet there was no mark on his body because God had intervened and kept him in a place of eternity for the moments of that battle.

00:25:52.703 --> 00:25:55.429
That man's name was George Washington.

00:25:55.429 --> 00:26:14.830
That was in the 1750s, 20 years before the American Revolution, 20 years before he would become the general of the army of the American Revolution and many decades before he would become president and the father of the country.

00:26:14.830 --> 00:26:21.079
God had his hand on him and God kept him, amen.

00:26:21.079 --> 00:26:31.694
And he kept him by enveloping him in eternity so that nothing from this time could hurt him.

00:26:31.694 --> 00:26:40.080
Now, how close that got was the fact that his coat was riddled with bullet holes, but none of them got to his flesh.

00:26:40.080 --> 00:26:42.984
Hallelujah, are you hearing?

00:26:42.984 --> 00:26:49.875
Praise god, hallelujah, praise the lord, glory to god.

00:26:50.255 --> 00:26:59.174
I want to show you some things today that I took the time to do, something I had never done before.

00:26:59.174 --> 00:27:01.185
I had only heard about it.

00:27:01.185 --> 00:27:07.270
I'm going to have to turn off the light so you can really see.

00:27:07.270 --> 00:27:11.088
Yeah, go ahead.

00:27:11.088 --> 00:27:46.669
All right, I generated these pictures just by using a few words and not the words that you see, but some other words and I got multiple images and I collected them and I sorted through them to try to get the best pictures that convey a thought, and these thoughts are thoughts that I believe we need to understand or at least get an appreciation for that.

00:27:46.669 --> 00:27:49.074
This is how it's working.

00:27:49.961 --> 00:27:55.660
I could describe these things, and it may not have the impact that something like this does, and it may not have the impact that something like this does.

00:27:55.660 --> 00:28:06.627
Okay, and in all these pictures you're going to see a road or a path like this and then other things that are going on around it.

00:28:06.627 --> 00:28:17.111
Okay, and this particular image shows us that the lines of our times are encircled by eternity.

00:28:17.111 --> 00:28:21.415
This is how God sees these things.

00:28:21.415 --> 00:28:38.575
Our time, a created time, a ready time, a time that's always available to us, the time that we live in goes on in this direction, but it's simultaneous with this and most often totally unknown by most people.

00:28:38.575 --> 00:28:43.160
Most people don't understand that we are surrounded by eternity.

00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:52.055
Most people don't understand at all how God's times are constantly surrounding our time.

00:28:52.055 --> 00:29:09.374
Time and it's, but it's with Christians and with believers, and especially with people who understand these times, that that God can manifest himself and bring his times into bear.

00:29:09.795 --> 00:29:10.621
But we've got to make.

00:29:10.621 --> 00:29:13.007
We've got to make the transaction that David did.

00:29:13.007 --> 00:29:23.451
David said my times are in your hands, but the other side of that coin, the other side of that transaction, is that God says my times are now yours.

00:29:23.451 --> 00:29:34.502
So the times that are God's, the things that happen in God's times, like healing, like deliverance, like miracles and all of those kinds of things amen.

00:29:34.502 --> 00:29:43.955
Now become ours and we become a people who can move in and out of these times into this time.

00:29:44.660 --> 00:30:00.967
This is exactly what Jesus did when Jesus was on the brow of the hill at Nazareth and they wanted to throw him off the hill and kill him because he had just said, the spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor.

00:30:00.967 --> 00:30:07.575
They wanted to throw him off the hill and he just literally passed through their midst.

00:30:07.575 --> 00:30:19.571
Well, what he did was he got off of this line right here and went into one of these lines and ended up over here in another spot.

00:30:19.571 --> 00:30:19.711
Amen.

00:30:19.711 --> 00:30:26.611
How did Philip, after he had prayed for the Ethiopian eunuch, end up in a city 30 miles away?

00:30:26.611 --> 00:30:33.587
He got off of this line and got onto another line and went up here and ended up in a place called Azotos.

00:30:33.587 --> 00:30:35.050
How'd that happen?

00:30:35.811 --> 00:30:53.486
It happened because spirit people can intersect with these lines of eternity in ways that other people cannot, and you just need to know that the eternity of God is surrounding our time all the time.

00:30:53.486 --> 00:30:57.632
It is encircled by that time.

00:30:57.632 --> 00:31:32.719
It is always there, it is always available, and what I know about this is that what was said in the book of Titus that there is a washing of regeneration and a renewal of the Holy Ghost In these times, there is renewal and regeneration that will bring healing and bring deliverance, and these times are always available to you, but you have to make God your God and you have to make this change.

00:31:32.719 --> 00:31:37.191
I'm going to give you my times in order to appropriate your times.

00:31:37.191 --> 00:31:39.984
Your times are eternal, your times are real.

00:31:39.984 --> 00:31:43.851
Your times are more real than this, amen.

00:31:43.851 --> 00:31:50.032
But this is the image of how God's eternity surrounds our times.

00:31:50.661 --> 00:31:53.028
This picture is another way to look at it.

00:31:53.028 --> 00:32:07.372
There you see people busily going on their little timeline here, and all the time around them is eternity, is flowing like streams.

00:32:07.372 --> 00:32:28.401
And this is really a good illustration, because in the eternity of God, there's all of these lines, there's all these ripples, there's all these, there's all this texture to it, there's all this way that his power and energy can flow into our time.

00:32:28.401 --> 00:32:34.688
And these streams of eternity are always all around us.

00:32:34.688 --> 00:32:41.781
Notice how they, the the streams of eternity, are pushing on our timeline.

00:32:41.781 --> 00:32:51.885
See, this time, this time it is very interesting because it's not straight, it's curved and it has movement and textures to it.

00:32:51.885 --> 00:32:52.606
Why?

00:32:52.606 --> 00:32:58.595
Because of the pressure of the streams of eternity that's pressing on it.

00:32:58.595 --> 00:33:06.173
You see what I'm saying this bend would not be here if it weren't for the pressure of this eternity right here.

00:33:06.173 --> 00:33:11.751
This bend would not be here if it weren't for the pressure from this eternity, etc.

00:33:11.751 --> 00:33:11.912
Etc.

00:33:11.912 --> 00:33:22.125
So God's eternity is pressing on our timeline and it presses it for specific purposes.

00:33:22.125 --> 00:33:24.349
He wants to bend it, he wants to shape it.

00:33:24.349 --> 00:33:27.577
Amen, hallelujah.

00:33:27.637 --> 00:33:42.484
We've been talking about the bend in time and eternity that God wanted to bring to the earth through the outpouring of the Holy Ghost of the Seuss history, amen, and the intent of this.

00:33:42.484 --> 00:33:54.730
There was one possibility up here that it was going to bend out of shape all of the things that could have happened in the 20th century.

00:33:54.730 --> 00:34:12.715
But because the power of God was rejected, that bend, this got pushed back and what was not wanting to be happened by God's will happened anyway because men rejected God.

00:34:12.715 --> 00:34:18.572
A lot of this has to do with the manipulation of time.

00:34:18.572 --> 00:34:21.168
We don't understand things like this.

00:34:21.168 --> 00:34:22.867
We've never been taught things like this.

00:34:22.867 --> 00:34:36.606
But when you start to think about, just think about that in one short week, two monumental events happened that shook North America.

00:34:36.606 --> 00:34:40.356
One of them was the outpouring of the Holy Ghost in Azusa Street and the other was the earthquake in San Francisco.

00:34:40.356 --> 00:34:51.880
Amen, those things happen within a matter of hours, with each other, with each other.

00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:53.907
That's what happens when this time and eternity intersection happens with major force.

00:34:54.588 --> 00:35:09.887
You cannot listen, you cannot have the Holy Ghost come in and show up and shake time and not have it ripple in other ways all the way through here, and that's exactly what happened.

00:35:09.887 --> 00:35:14.632
So these streams of eternity are all around us.

00:35:14.632 --> 00:35:19.228
They're pushing on it, they're changing it, they're making it flow in different directions.

00:35:19.228 --> 00:35:23.048
Praise God, hallelujah.

00:35:23.048 --> 00:35:25.682
Yes, is it not?

00:35:25.682 --> 00:35:27.887
Faith brings that timelessness to us?

00:35:27.887 --> 00:35:28.628
Yes, is it not?

00:35:28.628 --> 00:35:30.072
Faith brings that timelessness to us?

00:35:30.072 --> 00:35:36.070
Yes, but it's going to be more effective if you understand that you're doing it.

00:35:36.070 --> 00:35:53.483
Yes, and it's going to be more effective in terms of the miracles that you see and the results that you see because of your prayers, because a lot of what we do in faith is hoping instead of understanding that we're actually interrupting time.

00:35:53.483 --> 00:35:56.108
See, we all listen.

00:35:56.108 --> 00:36:08.708
You all hope that you live for a long time and that you're not sick and that you're not ill and that you you know you don't you don't live to be 140 as a vegetable and all that kind.

00:36:08.708 --> 00:36:10.927
We all hope for that right.

00:36:11.860 --> 00:36:21.760
It's a whole other thing to be able to start joining with God to manipulate eternity into your time so that those things happen.

00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:42.708
This image shows you that not only is God's times wrapping itself around our time, but because it's his times, and what David made the exchange for was to give him his time, david's time, and receive some of God's time.

00:36:42.708 --> 00:36:57.108
God's time is always going to have a righteousness and a holiness with it, and so this image shows that the fires of God's righteousness also envelop our timeline.

00:36:57.108 --> 00:37:04.722
Now here's where you can get involved or you can not get involved.

00:37:04.722 --> 00:37:09.371
You can reject the righteousness of God or you can embrace the righteousness of God.

00:37:09.371 --> 00:37:16.063
But when you embrace the righteousness of God, you're embracing his eternity.

00:37:16.063 --> 00:37:26.623
That's wrapped around your time, because wherever God's eternity is, the fires of his righteousness are going to be there.

00:37:26.623 --> 00:37:28.324
You can't separate it.

00:37:28.324 --> 00:37:30.726
You just cannot separate it.

00:37:30.726 --> 00:37:43.679
Wherever God is, whenever you look at, whenever you are privileged to see God in his heaven and on his throne, the fires of his righteousness are all around his throne, amen.

00:37:43.679 --> 00:37:52.275
And when he manifests his eternity here on earth, our times, those that righteousness is around him.

00:37:52.719 --> 00:38:08.356
So if you want to appropriate more of God's eternity in your life, you have to be prepared for appropriating and getting a hold of more of his righteousness, more of his holiness, more of his way of being.

00:38:08.356 --> 00:38:22.032
I mean, you're not going to, you're not going to, he's not going to trust you with, with entering in and out of his eternity If you're not going to enter in to his righteousness?

00:38:22.032 --> 00:38:27.403
Because, once, listen, you don't see any fire on that road, do you?

00:38:27.403 --> 00:38:32.253
That road is the timeline you're on, amen.

00:38:32.253 --> 00:38:33.706
But it's all around you.

00:38:33.706 --> 00:38:36.489
It's all around you in God's eternity.

00:38:36.489 --> 00:38:40.811
And as soon as you step into that eternity, what are you stepping into?

00:38:40.811 --> 00:38:47.891
You're stepping into his righteousness, you're stepping into his holiness, you're stepping into who he is, amen.

00:38:49.222 --> 00:38:50.721
And you can't get away from that.

00:38:50.721 --> 00:38:55.132
You can't say, well, I'm going to step over here into eternity and just do whatever I want.

00:38:55.132 --> 00:38:59.010
That's why David said my times are in your hands.

00:38:59.010 --> 00:39:00.173
I have to.

00:39:00.173 --> 00:39:01.840
I have to make that transaction.

00:39:01.840 --> 00:39:07.469
I have to let go of my times so I can appropriate and lay hold of his time.

00:39:07.469 --> 00:39:11.063
I'm going to lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus laid hold of me.

00:39:11.063 --> 00:39:13.831
I'm going to lay hold of his eternity.

00:39:13.831 --> 00:39:15.521
I'm going to lay hold of his righteousness.

00:39:15.521 --> 00:39:17.106
I'm going to lay hold of his holiness.

00:39:17.106 --> 00:39:21.121
I'm going to lay hold of the fire of God, amen.

00:39:21.121 --> 00:39:24.306
But I've got to give some stuff up to do it.

00:39:24.306 --> 00:39:39.710
And the most important thing to lay up to do it, and the most important thing to let go of, is the notion of the imminent death that awaits you, because that gives a structure to your timeline.

00:39:39.710 --> 00:39:41.193
That is unavoidable.

00:39:41.193 --> 00:39:42.315
Amen.

00:39:43.740 --> 00:39:54.867
And the Holy Ghost would say to you today what if you took that limit off of the end of your timeline in the way that you see things, not in your faith.

00:39:54.867 --> 00:39:57.887
We all know we're going to die and we're going to live forever.

00:39:57.887 --> 00:39:58.891
We all know that.

00:39:58.891 --> 00:40:00.626
I'm not talking about that.

00:40:00.626 --> 00:40:13.806
I'm talking about bringing that dying and living forever forward into who we are now, so that we can live forever and forget about the dying.

00:40:13.806 --> 00:40:20.943
We can toss the dying part aside and just move right into this eternity and start living forever.

00:40:20.943 --> 00:40:22.867
Now, praise God.

00:40:22.867 --> 00:40:25.293
They say y'all are nuts.

00:40:25.293 --> 00:40:26.902
They say y'all are nuts.

00:40:26.902 --> 00:40:30.871
Nope, I am the most sane person you will ever meet.

00:40:30.871 --> 00:40:39.144
I just happen to refuse to be limited by what other men say about me.

00:40:39.164 --> 00:40:54.065
Now, here, this picture really struck me as, speaking to this, one thought that our seasons and the episodes of our, our sojourn are defined by his righteous, that fire of his righteous.

00:40:54.065 --> 00:40:55.547
Look at how that fire is just.

00:40:55.547 --> 00:41:00.766
It's just gripping this timeline right here and it's shaping it.

00:41:00.766 --> 00:41:03.913
We're in this, in this expression, right here.

00:41:03.913 --> 00:41:06.768
This big loop, this thing, is where we're at right now, but we're moving toward this one right here.

00:41:06.768 --> 00:41:40.795
This big loop, this thing is where we're at right now, but we're moving toward this one right here, and then there's another one right behind it, and then there'll be another one right behind that, another one right behind that, and those episodes of our sojourn and our seasons that we go through in life are all defined for us as a people that belong to God, are all defined by his righteousness, his holiness, his divine destiny for our lives.

00:41:40.795 --> 00:41:45.527
All of that shapes these timelines that we're on.

00:41:46.650 --> 00:41:50.384
Praise God, I don't see, I don't know, I don't know what you?

00:41:50.384 --> 00:41:54.088
Somebody is always going to ask well, what about somebody that doesn't know Christ?

00:41:54.088 --> 00:42:07.547
Well, I'm going to say they better start knowing him so that this can be real for them, because the life that they're on right now is literally destroying all these seasons and times that are shaped by God's destiny.

00:42:07.547 --> 00:42:09.331
They're not being utilized by him.

00:42:09.331 --> 00:42:11.681
That's all I know.

00:42:11.681 --> 00:42:20.322
I know this that for the people who have been called by his name and have been brought into him, amen.

00:42:20.322 --> 00:42:28.130
This is what their life looks like in the time of God and in the timeline of man.

00:42:29.311 --> 00:42:40.583
Your timeline is in the pressure cooker of God's eternity, and that eternity is shaping and forming your times.

00:42:40.583 --> 00:42:44.911
It actually gives definition to every season and time that you go through.

00:42:44.911 --> 00:42:54.472
There's a barrier, in essence, there's a barrier between the road that they're on and the eternity that God has around them.

00:42:54.472 --> 00:43:04.041
God's not going to change his eternity for their unbelief, but there will be a barrier of unbelief that keeps them from knowing it and from receiving it.

00:43:04.041 --> 00:43:05.364
It's absolute, correct.

00:43:05.364 --> 00:43:18.333
This is more for how your life looks to God as he brings you through different seasons of your life that have literally been shaped by his eternity.

00:43:18.333 --> 00:43:37.541
You can think of it like this way your destiny in God is a tomorrow that has been shaped by his holiness and is just waiting for you to get there, and, in fact, he's going to accelerate how you get there by pushing you with his eternity.

00:43:37.541 --> 00:43:41.751
So listen, watch it, look, these things are wonderful.

00:43:41.751 --> 00:43:52.989
Trust me, I've sat here in many mornings since Sunday and just stared at these things, letting the Holy Ghost teach me what he was trying to do with this.

00:43:53.681 --> 00:44:09.407
This episode, right here, that's categorized by this big circle, the closest one to us, is literally pushing you toward this one, and when you get into this one, this one is going to shape you and push you toward this one that's out here.

00:44:09.407 --> 00:44:16.052
I'm sorry that my little thing is not cooperating.

00:44:16.052 --> 00:44:18.929
I've exceeded my battery.

00:44:18.929 --> 00:44:23.048
Let's see if we can do this.

00:44:23.048 --> 00:44:25.387
That would be very un-high-tech.

00:44:25.387 --> 00:44:28.985
We'd understand it.

00:44:28.985 --> 00:44:30.009
How's that?

00:44:30.009 --> 00:44:31.764
Now?

00:44:31.764 --> 00:44:33.210
This is the big circle.

00:44:33.210 --> 00:44:44.572
This is where we are now, but not only are we there now, but we're being pushed toward this, and when we get into this, we'll be into that now, but it's going to push us toward this one over here.

00:44:44.572 --> 00:44:46.847
See that shaded area right there.

00:44:46.847 --> 00:44:51.364
It's going to be pushing us right into that one, and so on, and so on, and so on.

00:44:51.364 --> 00:44:55.289
Amen, praise God, hallelujah.

00:44:56.490 --> 00:45:09.054
