Tonight, the assignment of the Holy Spirit comes to take us not to that which is foreign to us, not to that which has not been explored, but to that which is familiar and many times has been shared from many rosters and yet God says there is treasure in the text for us tonight. We will be in the gospel of Saint Luke, chapter number eight, verse number 41 through 50 again. My appreciation to all of our visiting pastors, to our associate pastors, to our staff, to our first lady in
her absence. Hi honey. Amen. God praise for her. To all of our volunteers and all of our staff who work so hard to make things happen, even in a short notice, I called a revival and gave them about a week to get ready for it. My ministry is here when I heard you said I started calling in Texan right then. Yeah, because we want to be in the flow. We want to be in divine alignments, anointing alignments so that when the oil hits the head of air and we want to be right and lined up as a beard or as a skirt to catch the flowing of the spirit because God is up to something. I can tell he's up to something because Satan is trying all kinds of stuff. Is it just me or is it you too? Look like hell got
scared when we started talking about revival. Demons got to trembling and working and having bored means but they didn't know the greater is he. That is in us that he that is in the world. And behold, there came a man named J. Iris and he was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at the at Jesus feet and besought him that he would come into his house for he had only one daughter about 12 years of age and she laid dying. But as he went the people frowned him and a woman having an issue of blood 12 years which has spent all her living upon physicians neither could be healed
of any came behind him and touched the border of his garment and immediately her issue of blood touched. Jesus said who touched me when all denied Peter and they that were with him said master come on master. What you talking about master the multitude thronged the infreasty and says now who touched me and Jesus says somebody somebody has tapped into something somebody has tapped into something somebody has touched me for I perceive that pressure is gone out of me I didn't send it but
it went out of me when the woman saw that she was not here and she came trembling and falling down before him she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him and how she was healed immediately she was healed immediately and he said under her daughter be confident that faith has made the whole going piece look at your name and say if you got any faith while he had spaked there come as one from the ruler of the synagogue's house saying to him and don't need any coming now Jesus that daughter is dead trouble not the master but when Jesus heard and he answered saying fed up believe only and she shall be made whole can you say man
Jesus said who touched me when all denied Peter and they that were with him said master the multitude thronged me and pressed me and says now who touched me I want to talk a little bit tonight about your life and your hands I want you to look at your hands your life your hands the next miracle you get is going to come through your hands the very next miracle that God has for your life is going to come through your your hands sweet holy spirit feel this place with your glory come in like a flooded manifest yourself
establish yourself in such a supernatural way that our lives are altered and irrevocably changed by the presence of God I thank you in advance for what you're going to do great God that you are move in the midst of your people in Jesus name we pray amen give him a praise this text is very interesting to me it is book in between a grown woman and a little girl the grown woman has been sick for 12 years that means that for the last 12 years she has had an issue
her issue started when jayaris daughter was born because jayaris daughter is 12 years old there is some synergism between the birth of jayaris daughter and the bleeding that would not stop in the life of this grown woman I'm not saying that they knew each other but I am saying that Jesus finds himself juxtaposed between the problems of an adult woman and the ailing of a young girl into this atmosphere not only is the dichotomous reality that he has been invited by jayaris who is a rich young ruler of the synagogue to come to his house only to be interrupted by a woman who has no name and is broke
it seems that her poverty does not stop her from getting the promise of God in her life it seems to me it is important it stands out it has been the theme of so many songs and sermons and messages and ministries not only because of the opulence of the texts but it also stands out amongst many of the texts because this is a miracle that slipped in on Jesus imagine that they are missing God the ruler of the universe the I am of Israel the mighty God the Prince of Peace the everlasting father the one who knows the end from the beginning the one with whom all things are naked before him
we have to do imagine that this this broke woman this broke bleeding woman would slip up behind him and receive something from him without asking him and leave him asking them who touched you have to be careful when God asked a question he is after all the rabbi the master teacher and it boggles the mind that the teacher would ask students a question and it boggled their mind as well because they immediately responded what do you mean who touched you everybody pressed around you you've been thrown about with a crowd of
people but Jesus here lets us know that it is possible to be around him and not touch him there must be some significant difference to brushing past Jesus and tapping into Jesus you would think in your mind that if you got in the presence of Jesus everything would be all right well let's be fair because he is omnipresent all of us are in the presence of God but the unique thing about Jesus is he is beyond the omnipresent some God he is in fact the manifest presence of God that is we are around the omnipresent some God without awareness
Jacob said God was here and I knew it not but whenever God manifest himself the presence of God becomes obvious Jesus is the manifest presence of the Father he says to Philip Philip says sure so Father and it's a fight for us and Jesus said have I been so long time with you and you still don't know that I and my father are one if you have seen me you have seen the Father in other words when God gets ready to make a selfie he gave us Jesus Jesus is so much the embodiment of God that when he was born he was nicknamed Emanuel meaning God
Tabbat knackled with us and in this case in our text he is with them but being with them does not seem to be the criteria through which miracles occur just being with Jesus just being around Jesus just saying Jesus stuff just knowing Jesus slogans just knowing Jesus routines does not necessarily invoke the presence of God that brings healing just to go to Jesus places just to where Jesus jewelry just to where bands that say what would Jesus do does not necessarily invoke the presence of God praying around him must be quite different from touching him or everybody around him would have been healed
the question then comes in our own mind what is the criteria that some folks get more than other people do even though they are in the same geographical location let's bring it in closer all of us can come to the same service but we don't experience the same level of deliverance we can hear the same sermon but there are people that can be here and hear the word of the Lord and not be changed by it while other people leave in tears and sit in their car have to wipe their face because they've been so touched by the power of God both people were there but one had a God in counter and the other was just around him that takes all so demonstrates to us our human responsibility to divine occurrences
and I don't think enough has been taught to us about our human responsibility to divine occurrences that we must become complicit in our own miraculous experience with God that just being around God without responding to him appropriately does not elicit a miracle for example he that hungers and thirst after righteousness shall be healed that means that God has a feeling that is discriminatory he will not just feel everybody he will only feel those who are hungry and thirsty for him I hate to tell you this tonight but you will get no more of God tonight than you are hungry for him if you're watching over the internet type on the line I'm hungry if you're in the building
shout out I'm hungry now ask yourself is that true because if you are not hungry for a touch from God God will not force feed any believer to receive anything that they're not hungry of you can be tell you can remain detached you can be indifferent that all you please are not receive anything from God but don't be a hate on me if he opens up the flood gates and starts pouring out blessings in mind the half because I'm hungry look at somebody say I'm hungry yeah yeah yeah so the oldest is on me it comes crystal clear that if I am indifferent I cannot receive what God has for me I have to become involved I have to be complicit in the process of the miracle not that I can
perform the miracle apart from God but it has to be a collaborative effort in order for God to be made manifest in my life if we don't do that we will never ascertain God's power in our behalf and then we will blame God I paid my times it didn't work I came to church it didn't work I went up for prayer it didn't work it didn't work because you didn't work you see much of what God does in this text is based on the aggression of the person who seeks it you have to be aggressive you have to be boldacious you have to be a little radical if you're not radical you're not going to receive anything from God if you're timid and you're too
worried about what people think and what the rules say and what the people say it who looking at your funny you can't receive anything from God glory to God I remember the young man I was traveling getting ready to go someplace to speak and I was oh maybe in my 20s or so and I told the Lord I said oh God I said I don't know why but I'm so nervous he said I know why he said if you stop worrying about your name and start worrying about mine the nervousness will go away immediately most people are so focused on what they look like that they can't receive from God oh no I can't cry I'm a decadent oh no I can't lay out in the presence of God I'm an elder I'm a pastor what will people think of me if I lay out before God but I still want to sense a vote to church tonight who do like care what anybody thinks about them who then regard the title their position their
income their intellectualism I ask God to give us some hungry people I'm eating a hundred people out there make some noise I want to hear hungry people I want to hear thirsty people I want to hear radical people I want to hear aggressive people I want to hear people who are ready for touch from God the oldest rest on you the infor radical encounter with God at the end of the day it will not be the general public nor the consensus of the congregants that determines whether you receive something from the Lord or not it's not who you sit by it's not how many people you have
around you it's not because of your prayer warriors and and your intercessory circle at the end of the day you come to a point in your life that it comes down to you and God and nobody else can do your work for you you have to do your own work everybody else will fall asleep in the garden of your seminary but you've got to keep on praying until you get your breakthrough are you here and what I'm saying to you tonight it will not be our rich heritage of faith God will not ask you how long your grandmother was saved and your mother was saved no this is an individual commitment where you have to have a personal relationship with God that releases the impossible and makes it possible you have to do that you have to decide I believe God for something that makes no sense
I believe God to do something that I've never seen him do before I believe God to fix a 12 year old problem in my life the seniority of my problem does not negate the power of my faith I don't care how long I've been like this I believe that God will respond to 12 years of pain with immediate results of power 12 immediately 12 immediately 12 immediately the enemy read it worked for 12 years but God said immediately 12
this woman is surrounded by masses of people labor she's surrounded by a crowd of people we like we like to be in these atmosphere where we are engulfed with people this woman is surrounded by masses of people none healed her the disciples were present the foundation of their early church all of them were around they would be the ones that became the foundation for new testament church and theology but none of them healed her in fact they totally disregarded her she was not even in their purview they were not even looking in her direction they did not they did not even notice the plight of this woman the fact that you are around holy people doesn't guarantee you that you get divine results the fact that you run with people with big names doesn't make you
bigger walking with tall men doesn't make you taller walking with handsome people doesn't make you better looking come on talk to me somebody at the end of the day it comes down to you the impetus of her miracle rescue on her who is this woman who is she anyway the Bible goes in every gospel it writes a little something about her and yet it's just not even bad to mention her name a writer so specific that it tells us about jay arris we know exactly who he is but who is this woman this no name woman this nameless woman who is she in the first place the very fact that we don't even know her name and the only thing we know about her is her problem speaks to the fact
that by man's standards she's a nobody and perhaps even worse than a nobody she has been noted by her problem as if her problem as if her problem defined who she was and still the impetus rescuerly on her she was alone in a crowd there's nothing worse than being alone in a crowd alone this is its own disease can I take my time with this I'm not talking about being single you can be single and not be alone and you can be married and still be alone you can have masses of
people over and still be alone we were meant to be a social species we were created like certain schools of fish to run in packs we were we were meant to be the kind of species that survives in part by our association with other people our inherent need requires socialization to feel and sense a sense of wholeness we function better when we interact with each other there's something that we get from other people's energy but this woman was alone alone this creates emotional homelessness the fact that you have emotions and you around people doesn't mean that your heart is homeless if you can't trust them I know you want to shout right there but you can't
because you might be sitting around somebody you can't trust it creates a sense of wholenessness to not be able to anchor my emotions and those that I am around so having more people does not give me the feeling of certainty that I desire because I have to be careful I'm getting to the age now I don't even like to be around people where I have to be careful yeah yeah I did that when I was 30 I played around a little bit when I was 40 but when I got about 50 or so I got bold enough to say that I rather be by myself and be myself than be surrounded by people where I have to watch what I say because the loneliness has nothing to do with who is in close proximity to me alone this is its own disease
sociology and psychology shares with us that people who live alone and stay off to themselves do not live as long as people who have somebody to live with even if they don't like them somebody to argue with somebody to bounce ideas out of it is so powerful that it has been proven that people who simply have nobody but a dog can cause you to live up to two years longer than people who shut the door on the house and there's no noise and there's no sound and there's nobody to laugh with and there's nothing to do with I can't could extend your life loneliness is its own disease and there's not a person in this room that hasn't gone through an issue alone I'm Mr. Manny sociological constructs religious political and personal she has been
excommunicated from them all almost as if she had a scarlet letter on her she is alone not because people are not there but even her faith has left her in a state of a loneliness her faith itself declares that any woman who has an issue of blood that does not stop is declared unclean and nobody was to touch her and if they did touch her they had to declare themselves unclean she is a woman without a touch I am not sure which is worth the issue of her disease or the issue of her loneliness because even a disease is better to deal with if you don't have to deal with it alone if there's somebody sitting by the bed if there's somebody who comes over if there's somebody
who brings you some soup if there's somebody who interacts with you it's better than having to go through it alone old age is better if you don't have to go through it alone if somebody calls you every now and then or calls about seizure or brings you some cookies and I'm like you matter she could not enjoy that because she was alone there are all kinds of studies that are out right now about what being quarantined does to the human mind over time and I like many people I'm an novice not an expert but I like many people have been researching what isolation does to the human brain science says that it actually shrinks the human brain to be left alone too long we learn from prison system that hardened criminals tough guys big barely tough guys who would
shoot you dead in the head and think nothing about it when they get ready to punish them they don't beat them they don't whip them they put them in isolation and left in isolation long enough the tough guys ball up in the corner crying like a baby and he doesn't even understand why because the loneliness is a punishment and a pain all by itself and there's only so much she can draw from her faith because her faith according to the pentatuck demanded that she be alone because of her issue so I'm trying to get you to understand that her issue has issues how many people in this room know what it's like to have issues that have issues it is not simple it's not just one thing but because of this thing it creates that thing it creates the other thing it creates the other thing and you can't
fix this over here because this came from that over there and this is tied to that over there and your issues have issues a quick look at look 15 19 through 22 you will find the word of God validating her loneliness and it says and if a woman having issue and her issue in her flesh be blood she shall be put apart seven days and whoever touches her should be unclean until the evening and everything that she lieth upon in her separation should be unclean and everything that she sinned upon shall be unclean and whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean the evening and whoever touches anything that she sat upon shall be washed shall wash his clothes and bathe himself in water and be unclean until the evening and if a woman
had an issue of her blood many days out of the time of her separation or if it doesn't stop or if it run beyond the time of her separation all the days of the issue of her unclean this shall be as the days of her separation she shall be unclean are you hearing what I'm saying to you see it's not wrong it's normal it's necessary it's healthy for her to have an issue it's how the body recycles itself it's how the woman was designed it's a part of her ability to be able to be childbearers and to bring birth there's nothing wrong for her to have an issue the problem is the issue is not supposed to continue it's supposed to be a cycle coming and going and coming and going and coming and going but what do you do when something ought to be gone and it's still there it's not you to have grief when you lose somebody but what do you do when the grief lasts too long
certain things that can happen in your life at a particular season is supposed to happen in your life but you don't want a season to last too long not even a good season you don't even want to bear fruit all the time it's not good to bear fruit all the time the reason we have seasons in the earth is so that the ground can rest and so that the tree can rest if you're bearing fruit all the time you're burned out and you're where out with no word to the preachers don't let people preach you to death because if you're giving out all the time and more is going out than what's coming in after wow let's go shore up in your life a word to the women in this room if you're giving out to other people all the time and you don't have any me time after wow mama gets depleted a word to the men in the world if you're protecting everybody and you don't protect yourself after wow you're where how you're supposed to do it for a season but what happens what happens
when the season runs off the clock I'm wondering if there's anybody here online or around the world or in Nigeria or in Australia or in Europe that's watching me right now and you have been giving and giving and giving and what was an issue has turned into a immature what was a cycle has come into a point where people define you and they think it's just natural for you and I've heard people say oh that's just how he is that's just how she is that's just how they are and people start take in you for granted and the more you get the more they want and the more you give the more they want and the more you give, the more the one. And the more you give, the more the one. I wish there was somebody in here who understood what I'm talking about. I wish there was somebody in here that got tired of giving and giving and giving and giving and giving and giving and giving and giving and you say, Lord, how do?
How do? How do? How do? Before it becomes my turn. How do? But someone, somebody gives back to me. How do? Before somebody ministers to me, like I minister to them. How do? Before I receive all that I've been giving up, I've been so-and-and so-and-and so-and-and so-and-and so-and-and so-and-and so-and and I'm not reaping anything back. I don't know about you, but I want to confess, I'm tired of so-and and getting nothing back. I don't want to so-and to people. I don't want to so-and to places. I don't want to so-and to things and never get anything back. Sooner or later, my day ought to come. And the Lord said, today's your day. If you need the little reciprocity, take 30 seconds,
and praise Him for a return coming back your way. I'm tired of everything going out and nothing coming in. I'm tired of everything going out and nothing coming in. I'm tired of giving everything and getting nothing back. Don't be ashamed of it. Make some noise if you're in the house. I'm tired of everything going out and nothing coming in. I'm tired of everything going out and nothing coming in bumper. I'm tired of everything going out and nothing coming in bumper. And they belong in mustard, because they belong in mustard. And then they belong in mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in in mustard and then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard.
And then they belong in mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. And then they belong in the mustard. an individual, you are tormented by the movement of others. You have to watch everybody else build a house. You have to watch everybody else start a business. You have to watch everybody else get married. You have to watch everybody else go forward. You have to watch everybody else do business and you're stuck in the same place and it seems like their progress becomes your torment. It would be better if you didn't have to see them but there you are stuck in the same place. You're like blind bottom man sitting on the side of the highway. If I was blind I wouldn't want to sit on the highway because I get tired of people passing me by. Is there anybody in here that's tired of people passing you by? The people you grew up with, the people you went to school with, the people you go to church with and you're tried to be nice and you're tried to celebrate everybody but when you get on by yourself where nobody can hear you you say, Lord, when is my day coming? When is my time going to come? Where are you going to bless me? Where are you going to move me?
Where are you going to deliver me? She was on a vicious downward cycle. This woman was on a vicious town with cycle. I was looking at some property that every day and it was empty property that had been empty for about 30 years and without any vandalism at all it's emptiness that caused it to go down. I want to rest some downward cycles tonight. First one thing another, my mother you say if it's not one thing it's another as soon as you get over this here comes that and as soon as you withstand that you withstand the other and people talk about how strong you are because they weigh your strength by how much you can lose and still keep going but I say enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough is enough is enough enough is enough enough is enough.
If you read the text carefully you will find that her issue took her relationships. Nobody could sit where she said nobody could lay with her. Nobody could hold her. No children could run in the room and show her paintings they'd drawn of her. Her issue had still her relationships. Her issue had exhausted her finances. Her issue had drained her bank account. It had affected her economically. We're talking about a physical infirmity but it has had economic repercussions. If you have one issue long enough and you don't fix it it will grow over into the next issue and start affecting that and if you don't fix that it'll roll into the next issue and start taking that she has suffered at the hands of worthless physicians. Footnote to all my worthless
physicians if you can't fix me leave me alone. But I'm tired of for practicing on me. I'm tired of forgetting to practice on me. I don't need no preachers practicing on me. I don't need my friends practicing on me. I don't need no for calling me up saying if I was you I would do you not make shut up. I don't need another worthless physician. I'm already suffering with the issue and now I got to suffer with all the people that are telling me how to handle an issue that you don't know anything about. Leave me alone. Now I'm gonna break it out. Leave me alone. Leave me alone. Leave me alone. Don't call me. Don't text me. Don't ring my doorbell. Don't come over my house. If you can't make me better for God's sake don't make
me worse. Leave me alone. I already got an issue and now my issue has created another issue. I got to survive the issue and I got to survive how you treat the issue. It has created the agony of poverty. Poverty is not just economic. Poverty is being robbed of my dignity. Robbed of my culture. Robbed of my self-esteem. Robbed of the sense of the power of who I am. Robbed of being able to hold my head up high in the marketplace. Robbed of being able to attack jokes with friends and laugh with my sisters and brothers and Rob of a sense of belonging. Robbed of a sense of connection. Robbed of a sense of knowing all of this has come from the issue. The sad reality is this woman was on her own. She was not even on Jesus' purview.
Jesus is not walking toward this woman. Jesus is headed to JR's house. She is not in JR's house. She's just on the purifio view of a Jesus whose gaze is pointed in another direction. And I know you wouldn't say it, but I am. There have been moments in my life that I struggle to get God's attention. Where are the real people at Masonoy? There have been moments in my life that I struggle to get God's attention. And I danced and I shouted and I threw $20 on the altar. And I struggled to get God's attention. And suddenly she realized it's in my hands. Jocelyn McGervick.
It's not in the hands of the freinds. It's not in the hands of the church. Mother's It's not in the hands of the helpless. It's not in the hands of my husband. It's not in the hands of my wife. It's not in the hands of my children. It's not in the hands of my preacher. It's not in the hands of my boss. is in my hands. If I don't do anything, I'm going to die on the sidelines of opportunity and never receive what God has for me, type it on the line. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. I want you to just clap your hand for exercise. Clap until they get a little warm. Clap until you feel some heat in it. That's where your next miracle's going to come from. It's in your hands. It's in your hands. I want you to clap your hands because God's going to teach your fingers to war.
He's going to teach you how to fight. The good fight of faith. Because what you've been praying about is in your hands. It's in your hands. It's in your hands. It's in your hands. Tell everybody you can reach. It's in your hands. You're healing. You're miracle. You're deliverance. You're restoration. You're renewal. You're breakthrough. You're advancement. You're courage. You're strength. It's in your hands. Now open your mouth and praise God. Like you lost your mind. It's in your hands. It's in your hands. It's in your hands. You've been waiting on God, but God is waiting on you. You've been praying for God to move and God's been waiting on you to move. And if you don't soon move before the year is out, he's going to pass you by. The Lord is going to pass you by. He's going to pass you by.
He's going to pass you by. The Lord is passing you by. While you make excuses. While you blame other people. While you fuss about your childhood. While you talk about this, that, or the other. The Lord is passing you by. And not only is the Lord passing you by. Time. Time is passing you by. But get right in the devil's face and clap your hands. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. God's already giving me permission. It's in my hands. It's in my hands. And I made up in my mind.
I'm going to work with what I got. I'm going to work with what I got. Somebody open your mouth and I'll allow you to wash your mouth. Look at your name and say, I didn't realize it was in my hands. You mean I don't have to wait on you? I don't have to wait on you. I don't have to wait on the committee. I don't have to wait on the board. I don't have to wait on a group to meet. You mean it's in my hands? Yes! It's in my hands. One woman was about to die. And the prophet came to my house and said, what is in your house? She said, I don't have nothing but a pot of oil. He took what was in her hands and a miracle broke loose in her life.
Y'all know what I'm saying. Another woman was about to eat a cake and die. And the prophet said, I'm going to take what's in your hands. If you give me a handful of meals, I'll work a miracle in your house. Somebody hold it in my hands. Samson was blind and lost his hair. But they put his hands on Degon's temple and the entire temple came down. Because the power wasn't just about his hair. It was about his hands. Somebody shot his head by hand. Moses was standing in front of the red sea, amounted on the right side and amounted on the left side. He looked up at God and God told him. It's in your hands. David came down to the valley and saw a giant standing in the middle of the field. And God said, all you need is in your hands.
Y'all not going to help me pre-sister. One woman had lost her coin in her house. But she took a broom. In her hands and swept the house. And since she got back, everything to double stone. I'd like you to sweep in it. Because this is the restoration meeting. Everything to double stone. I'm going to sweep till I get it back. I'm going to sweep till I get it out. I'm going to sweep till I get it loose. I'm going to sweep till I get it back. I'm going to sweep till I get it back. I'm going to sweep till I get it back. Five thousand people were about to die. Frank without food until a little boy discovered what was in his hands. And with two fish and five loaves of bread.
God's fed five thousand people. Jesus was trying to redeem the world. And his knees, he can do it with his hands. But when he grabbed the call, some salvation was in his... Look at somebody and say it's in my hands. Yes, yes. And the word of the Lord came to you today to say, you got to get your hands on it. You got to get your hands on it. You got to get involved in it. You got to reach out and touch it. You got to go for it. You got to reach for it. You got to stretch for it. Somebody take a minute and praise him in this house. Praise him in this house. Praise him in this house.
Praise him in this house. Praise him in this house. Praise him in this house. Praise him in this house. Praise him in his house. Praise him in this house. He'll揉 somebody, say I got to get my hands on it. I got to get my hands on my future. I got to get my hands on the prophecy. I got to get my hands on the word. I gotta get my hands on my business. I gotta get my hand on my body. I gotta get my hand on it. She was laying there bleeding, but she said if I can get my hands on it, if the thing that devil stole, everything that devil took, everything that devil went after, everything that had me tied up, I gotta get my hands on it. I need somebody to give me my crazy praise. A holy ghost praise, a supernatural praise, a shout of deliverance,
a shout of breakthrough. Let the devil know what's you been trying to do for the last 12 years. I'm gonna break it tonight. I'm gonna break it tonight. I'm gonna... I'm gonna break it. I'm gonna break it. I'm gonna break it. I'm gonna break it with what's in my hands. I'm tired of crying about what I lost. I'm gonna use what's in my hands. Who am I preaching to tonight? I used to say that it was what she said to herself,
and that was powerful because she said to herself, if I can but touch the hymn of his garment, I know I'll be made home and she was talking right. And the first thing you got to do is adjust your language for a breakthrough. Look at somebody say, I'm gonna change the way I talk about it. I'm gonna change the way I talk about it. I'm gonna change the way I think about it. I'm gonna change what I say about it. I'm gonna change the way I say it to myself. In fact, in but touch the hymn of his garment, I know how to be made home, but I didn't realize. Even though she said it, saying it didn't get her heel, her mouth got started, but her hands settled it. The proudest thing that the woman who started talking right, started reaching right, and she reached out to somebody reach out.
I'm reaching for something that I've been living without. I'm reaching for something that I've been going without. I'm reaching for something I've been praying about. I'm reaching for something I've been asking God about. God told me to put my hands on it tonight. You ought to touch something. You ought to touch something. You ought to touch something. You ought to touch something. If you get your hands on it, it'll change your life. Get your hands on it. Stop sending other people to get your best at her and get your hands on it. If I'm preaching to you, give God a praise. I said it up preaching to you. Give God a praise. Every time I get started, the devil tries to shut me down,
but the devil is alive. I'm gonna stretch my hand out and get what God has for me. You need to get it before the year is out. Take it. Take it. She touch! She touched. Jesus! was touching Jesus. If you just touch whatever is touching Jesus, a breakthrough is coming your way. Somebody better grab my co-tea. Because I feel demons tremble. I feel hell getting nervous. I feel witches looking for doors. Because I got my hands loose. If I get my hands loose,
I can get my money loose. If I get my hands loose, I can get my heart loose. If I get my hands loose, I can get my house loose. If I get my bed, I can get my bed. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Look at somebody's head on timing. I've been tied too long. I've been held down too long. I've been bound too long. I've been worried too long. I've been upset too long. But lose me and let me go. If I get my hands on it. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
Nazi. Why the devil's been trying to keep me tied up. Because he wanted my hands occupied. He wanted my hands on everybody else's problems. My hands on everybody else's situation. My hands on everybody else's emotions. Because he knew that the power was in my hands. But tonight is my night to lose my hands. I'm going to shake off everything else that was in my hands. And I'm ready to see my vision. Come to pass in my life. I'm going to get my hands on it. If I don't answer the phone, if I don't call your back, if I don't come over for dinner, if I don't resolve your problem, I got to get my hands loose. Somebody start shaking your hand. Shake your hands. Shake your hands. Shake your hands. Shake your hands. Get your hands loose again. Get your hands loose. Get ready for what God has been ready to be ready for the whole time.

You will make it, you will make it, you will make it.
Yeah. It's in your hands. Give him a prize! Yeah! In it's all over, at a stake, you're red the text. She had to come out and explain to Jesus not only it was me to touch you, but what I touched you for. That means that Jesus was totally oblivious. It was totally in her hands.
Your life, your hand, your life, your hand. Jesus looked at her and that's already stopped. Okay. She knew within herself because the woman knows. Come on, sisters, a woman knows she knew within herself that her fountain was touched. That was already done. And then Jesus looked at her and said, go that way. That faith. See, it's one thing to be made. It's one thing for the fountain to be staunched. But what about the money I lost? What about the years I lost? What about the relationships I lost?
What about the nights I cried myself to sleep? Jesus said, go that way! That faith. I gotta heal you, you already heal. The faith has made the whole. Look at your name and say, God's getting ready to make your whole. He's gonna restore everything you lost. Everything you did without. Everything that went down. You're watching over the Internet. Look me right in my face. God is getting ready to restore. Everything the issue took away from you. Everything you did without. It's one thing for the issue to stop. But you're still at a loss. But Jesus said, go that way! That faith has made the whole. The Lord told me to tell you, he's gonna make you whole.
Everything I owe you. Everything you lost. Everything that went down. God said, I'm gonna make you whole. I'm gonna make you whole. Don't worry about the house, I'm gonna make you whole. Don't worry about the job. I'm gonna make you whole. Don't worry about who left your church. Got sin in you to make you whole. I'm gonna make you whole. I'm gonna make you whole. It's gonna be us if you're never lost it. I can't be whole if I still miss it. You must understand the difference between being healed. And being whole, there are a lot of people in this room that are healed.
But you're still trying to recover what you lost. Her hand got her healed. His word made a whole. God said it all. God said it his word. I kept a record of how much you spent. I kept a record of how many nights you cried. I kept a record of how much love you missed. And God said your faith has made you. How many people are ready to be made whole? Let your hands up. I want to talk to man in that audience.
You have an opportunity tonight to be made whole. In your faith, in your belief, in your giving, in your sowing, in your planting, in your stretching out. On his way, God is specifically saying, not only will I stop the issue that you've been praying about, if you stop hiding, and come out right in front of me, I'm gonna make you whole. Your hands up, this is a revival of wholeness. It is operation restoration. God is doing something inside of his people. That the epidemiologist cannot do. That Congress cannot do. That the president cannot do.
God said I'm gonna make you whole. Stop it! For the first time in years, you're gonna do what God told her. You're gonna go in peace. You've been going, but you haven't been going in peace. There's a glory in this place. Somebody give past a turp in the mic and just come up on the stage for a minute. There's a glory in this place. I want you to enter into it. There's somebody that the Holy Spirit is spoken to on the internet. You need to be so unrighted this moment, because this is a prophetic word for you in the situation that you're facing right now. God said he's gonna make you whole. You lost some stuff. You had some setbacks. You're still trying to recover.
You're healed, but you're still trying to recover. God said he's gonna make you whole. You need to sew into that moment. Attach your faith with that word. It's in your hands. Somebody in this room. And if the Lord give you one of those worship songs, while we lift our hand and wash them in this place, let the glory of the Lord feel this place. All I want is to be made whole. I came out tonight because I want to hold this. I want to hold this. He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole.
He's gonna make you whole. Let's hear it. So reach out. Past your pain. He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. Make you whole. Make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. Yes, he is.
He's gonna make you whole. If you want to make you whole. Lift your hand and say, He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. Come on, real big. He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. He's gonna make you whole. Yes. He's gonna make you whole.
Oh. Yes. Come on, come on. Take it up. Just reach out and touch him. He's going. He's gonna make you whole. The anointing of God is in this place. Can I get a witness in here? There is a year in the Bible called the Year of Jubilee. And in the Year of Jubilee all the slaves were set free. And in the Year of Jubilee the ground rested. And in the Year of Jubilee they came into restoration.
On the 50th year God opened doors made, ways, loose bounds. Set the captive free with call the Year of Jubilee. Some of you have been smiling a long time but you ain't had Jubilee for a while. Come on, talk to me somebody. But I believe it got for a year of Jubilee. I'm gonna challenge everybody in the room that has it. If you don't have it I'm not talking to you. I want you to sew $50. Just come and bring it a little. To you that own life I want to invite you to join us. I'm believing God for Jubilee to break out in your life. If you got to wait and go into a trance don't do it. But if you sit here knowing of God on this word, just come and bring it for yourself. You're only in and out. I want to come out of your hand just $50. Just get it in your hand and just... He's gonna make you whole.
He's gonna make you whole. Yeah. Gonna make you whole. Come on down and bring it. Come on down. That is... That is... He's gonna make you whole. Yeah. Yeah. He's gonna make you whole. Yeah. Yeah. Cause you know it's your life.
It's your life. It's his head. Your life. Your head. Your life. Your head. Your life. Come on. Your life. Your head. Make you whole. No. There's someone in this room tonight. You've been bleeding a long time. Some of you are angry and you're hostility. And what seems like rebellion.
What seems like frustration led to bad choices led to bad situations. And we're on a mission tonight. Operation recovery. You've lost a lot. There's a backslider in this room that's stripped it a long ways away. And you know better. But you haven't been doing better. Well, other people are bringing offerings. I want you to bring yourself and just come stand right in front of me. And say I want to be saved. I want to be whole. I don't care if you got to come from the top of the balcony. I don't care if you got to come from the middle of the road. I want you to come. If you're alive, there's a number on the screen right now. Where our prayer warriors are knowing that prayer warriors are ready to pray with you.
Every backslider, every unsaved person, every person who's not made a real commitment to Jesus. And there's been a shaken in this world. And you got your attention. God got your attention. I can't call. It's a service. This is about your life. Your hand. That woman got above the ground and pressed her weight to get to Jesus. What you're going to do, bro. What you're going to do. What are you going to do, my sister? What are you going to do watching online right now? You're going to flip past me and watch something else.
God has waited on you to make a move. My life. My hands. My life. My hands. My life. My hands. My life. We're drawing. Look at these souls on the altar right now. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. There's nothing in your life. In the darkest anus of your life that God doesn't know. And there is nothing in your life that God cannot fix.
Not nothing. Do you hear me? Not nothing. He can make you whole. Jesus didn't die for goody to you folks. Jesus died for folks who've been around the block, been around the corner, been locked up in jail, been in storms, been in rain. Got issues, got problems, got crisis, made mistakes, dysfunctional, angry, mad, strung out, confused, messed up in bears, ashamed. Do you know how difficult it must have been for that bloody woman to pass through all those men and come to Jesus? Whatever has changed your life. God can handle it. Be.
God can handle it. And you came tonight to have an encounter with God. And that's all it matters. I'm going to pray with you in a minute. But it's going to be what you say to God that really brings about the change. If you sickle your sins and you sickle yourself and you're ready to pull your act together, that's going to be what matters. If you believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, for your secrets, for your issues, whatever the issue might be, he died for your issue. He's able. He's able, yes, Lord. He's able to make you whole. I don't know who he is, the Lord said there's somebody in this crowd that wants to come. You're struggling to come.
Don't miss this moment. Come right now. Don't miss this moment. Don't try to pray in your seat. He's dealing with it. Come on. I was getting ready to pray. He said, wait a minute. All that I'm pulling on ain't come yet. Oh my God. All that I'm pulling on hasn't come yet. You're watching on the Internet. The part of the house is in full flesh, holy ghost revival. In the middle of a storm, we're in revival. Operation restoration. God wants you back. He wants your praise back. He wants your commitment back. He wants your life back. He wants your gift back. There's so many gifts around this altar that God placed down inside of you. God wants your gift back.
How many of you know you've been gifted? You've been gifted back. God put a gift down inside of you. God wants it back. He wants it back. He wants it back. He wants it back. You watch it online. I don't care where you are in the world. This prayer will reach you. This prayer will reach you. I don't care how deep and dark in sin you're in. This prayer will reach you. You and your friend. You had your situation. You had your issue. I call you out. Come out with your hands up. You're under arrest. The Holy Ghost has got you surrounded. You got no other options. You can't afford to let tonight pass you by. Tonight is your night.
Father God, lift your hands every one of you. Father God, in the name of Jesus. I don't know all of these people by name, but you do. I don't know their story, but you do. I don't know their story, but you do. Every one of them that you brought to this altar, you got a plan for their life. They've been missing it because of some dumb issue. But tonight in the name of Jesus, we renounce every issue that kept us away from you. We renounce every sin that does so easily beset us. We bring our lives to the blood-like cross of the master. And let your blood cleanse us and touch us and wash us. And renew us. Renew us from the shame and the pain and the guilt and the anger and the frustration of all the things we had to do
because of the state we were in. Whatever we will not go back. Right now in the name of Jesus, we will not go back. He whom the Son has set free is free indeed. Jesus you paid for their pardon. You paid for their escape. Let not one woman, let not one man, let not one boy. Let not one girl leave this altar with the brightness of your glory shining on their life at a fresh and orangey. Yes, Lord. The Lord said, Virtue is going out. Virtue is going out. His virtue is going out. His virtue is coming down into your life, into your spirit, into your gift, into your ministry, into your walk, into your talk. You are never.
Never be the same. Now listen. When the woman with the issue of blood first got healed, she hid. But Jesus wasn't having it. He said, come out of hiding. God does not need any undercover Christians. If you are his child, confess him. If you are his child, confess him. I don't care how they laugh at you. I don't care how they make fun of you. They make jokes about me. They said, I'll be back in the club in two weeks. 46 years later, I'm still standing here. They haven't been perfect years. I made mistakes in the years. They haven't been years without temptations and stress and struggles and ups and downs.
But I told them, if I go to hell, you are going to pick me up into church. Because I am never leaving my father's side again. I know that there is nothing wrong with me, that he cannot fix. You are not going to trick me out of my place. Because God has got something for me. And I found out for once in my life who I was, who I really was, not who they said I was, who I really was. In the house of God, I was being who they said I was. Sometimes I was being who I thought I had to be. But little by little, God be goodness show me who I am. If you're in this area and you don't have a church, I want to be your pastor.
I want to be the man of God who we in the seas for you and praise for you. I want to be the place that you can come and get the Word of God. I want you to come in here when you're weak and when you're strong and when you're right and when you're wrong and when you're tired and when you feel good and when you're mad and when you got to attitude, I can handle it. I'm a grown man. Bring you attitude on in here. I got something for you. You know why? I built this church for you. I built this church for you.
